Broken Scar Live @ Muzika Musim Luruh 2010 Wrap Up

I know this was forever ago, but here's a video, a stack of photos and highlights from the night we played at The Prince Bandroom in St. Kilda for Muzika Musim Luruh 2010.




There was definitely a whole lot of action from the moment we got on stage








Our mosh pit!
















Rocking the stage at The Prince Bandroom was legendary. Can't wait to rock out that stage again, with the room filled to the brim. Muzika, you guys were absolutely amazing! Huge thanks to Aqmal for the awesome photos!


Hanging out with Noh from Hujan. This dude is a genius and so is the rest of Hujan and the gang!


The crowd was amazing. If you were there and you are reading this now, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

Alda and myself, hanging out at Mart 130 for breakfast. I absolutely love the corn fritters. It's the best I've had so far. YUM! This was when Alda and I argued about the pide. Is it pied or pee-day? Do you wanna play hee-day and seek? Hilarious!

Side note:
How often do you see me in a white top? Threadless tees rule! I think I should wear this at a gig some time.

Up, Up & Away


Photo taken by Tam Tran

While we traveled along Great Ocean Road, we made a stop to visit The Otway Fly Tree Top Walk which is part of the Otway Ranges. I had visited a part of the Otway Ranges when I went to Great Ocean Road the first time and I remember the air was so fresh in the forest, it was almost like breathing oxygen straight out of a bottle.

The Tree Top Walk, reminded me of the FRIM canopy walk in Malaysia, just that it wasn't humid and there weren't any mosquitoes here. I guess the weather here is more comfortable for an activity like this, for me at least.

I knew I had a slight fear of heights but only in really tall concrete buildings. I remember going up to KL Tower and I freaked out. But on the other hand, when I went up to KLCC twin towers (the offices), I felt fine and based on my memory, FRIM wasn't too bad and this was pretty similar, according to the brochure. So I thought, what the heck. Let's just do this!

Guess what, this tower (in the photo) proved that I was indeed slightly afraid of heights. I felt light headed as a climbed up the stairs of this structure but the fear wasn't so bad that I couldn't do any of it at all. I made it all the way to the top and back down safely. There was also a part of the walk where the ramp was literally held up by two wires. It looked scary, but it was all a matter of the mind because it wasn't so bad when I got all the way out to the end of the ramp. I think it's a matter of having confidence that if it is all safe and nothing will happen to you, you'll be fine. So in the end, I looked my fear in the face and overcame it, although with that said, I'm not really sure I'd want to do the walk again. Haha!

P/S: In true Malaysia Boleh style, I tried to grab the link for the official FRIM website and as if it was a surprise, the website does not work. Classic.

Venus Bay

The weather forecast over the Easter long weekend was looking good and we decided to take full advantage of the sunshine so we headed out to Venus Bay to gather pippies. Pippies are saltwater clams and can be found usually in marinara mixes or Italian cooking, also know as vongole. To me, they are like over sized lala.

Alda was in town for this too.




This was the first sighting of the Pipi. We knew we were getting close.




We got too excited and went digging in the sand for pippies that I didn't get a chance to take photos of the actual process of gathering these pippies. This was our catch. You'd need a fishing license to gather pippies and each person is allowed to gather 2 litres worth. We didn't go overboard. In fact, we respected the land and sea, and gathered less than our allocation.


We headed off to a public BBQ area to cook our fresh pippies. Yum!


Jia Meei cooking up a storm






Alda for sale. Any takers?






In Malaysia, we always tell people to "go and fly kite". Well, I sure did! Flying kites is one of the best feelings.


This photo looks like it fits a postcard. Welcome to Venus Bay, Victoria.








I wanted to jump into the sea all day but I didn't want to get all wet and ruin the rest of the day, so when the day was winding up, I jumped in. The water was freezing I could barely go any further.


This was a few days before my birthday and the guys decided to celebrate my birthday and surprise me with a cake made of pippies and a hot cross bun. haha! I had heaps of fun and every trip tends to just keep topping the other. I thank God each day that I have amazing friends whom I regard as family.

Great Ocean Road: Day Two

This was day two of our two day Great Ocean Road trip.


The view from the holiday home we hired. I didn't even realise the sea was so near because we arrived late and it was dark the night before.


I can understand why some people would say that these are just a bunch of rocks and seem disinterested. After all, they are just a bunch of rocks. I guess it's all a matter of perspective. Too much of something may not always be good. But to me, I marvel at how they form over time as the elements carve them individually so unique.


Don't you think that rock formation in the middle looks a little bit like a face with the nose pointing out?


The vast green. Welcome to my backyard!


As a kid, Treasure Island was one of my favourite stories and I guess I loved the sense of adventure so when I saw this, I couldn't help but imagine the pirate ships docking out in the sea while they row in to the beach with small boats. Arr!


Tam, making a temporary sand tripod. A few moments after taking his shots, the waves actually came in and swept the tripod away. Good thing he was done with his shots and have removed his camera.


I felt like taking a picture here to remind me of the kid inside.


..and for lunch I had one of the best steak sandwiches ever! If I go out that way again, I wanna have this!


The famous ice cream from Timboon Fin Ice Cream. The dude inside wasn't the friendliest, but hey, I wasn't gonna let him spoil my trip.


What used to be London Bridge.


The boys. One for the road!
