Training in Training Dept of Crowne Plaza Mutiara Kuala Lumpur...

Wow... I don't know whether did I put on any weight during my training in this department due to most of the time when there are in-house Training going on, then definitely there will be coffee breaks...hahaha... food again... =)
Most of the days having Coffee until my brain is filled with cafine... But the Roti Jala is good and the Chicken curry is really good... I've been attending numerous training in the department, and most ofthe time there are Mints on the table and othere than that... whenever we participate during the training and if we get to answer the question asked by Ms. Zaharah (training executive) correctly, she will give away prizes e.g. Mars Bars, Kit Kat, and etc...
Whoa..!!! too much of sweets... I think averagely everyone who attended the training for the continuosly 2 weeks, had swollen a big packet of Mentos Mints... Why??? This is due to they don't want to fall asleep... that's why.. =) I'm 1 of them unfortunately.... Me and Yoga during our 2 days Orientation both of us were known as the 'fisherman of Crowne Plaza KL'... actually the name was given by ourselves.. Lol.. It was FUN to attend the training...
I get to exposed most of their taining and I learn about their Brand and their Services...
As usual my training is still going on until.... ... ... ...
Till then....

Chirstmas Charity Party @ Living Arts Studio - 17th Dec '06

This Christmas is really lively and with a very good energy for me... Living Arts Studio came up with an idea of celebrating this year's Christmas with the Orphans from Trinity Homes... On that day, there are varieties of talent going on e.g. Breakdance, Stand-up Comedian, Hip Hop, Latin, Chinese Cultural Dance, Capoeira, Singing, Acapella, and etc (most of the performers are amateurs).
These kids are special due to they can really dance and especially one of the small kid can really 'break'!!! I'm not kidding... He can do 'worm', 'helicopter' and etc... & he is only 5 years old. The crowd was awesome and the food was great... I can't believe that I can sing...hehehe It was my really 1st time to participate in singing and in addition is Acapella... just being the background. Lol... The whole preparation was hectic and Teresa and Yike always have to stay up until quite late in the studio. They are passionate people. Living Arts is a place that gives everyone a chance to present themselves and to know people...

Had a great fun during the 3rd Annual Bantus Capoeira Malaysia Festival....

The annual festival was fantastic... I just can't explain to whoever never join the workshops and the whole event. Only one word to describe which is 'FUN'...!!! Just can't wait for the next festival and Batizado... i really enjoy the workshops with Mestre and instructors, you enjoy the whole workshops... There are laughter and exciting moments. Definitely is a tough training session but all the effort was really worth it. Got the chance to train with different instructors together with their skills and knowledge.

We get to learn and play Maculele in the roda and everyone was involve and the axé of the roda was great. New songs were sang I really open up my eye for all the moves that were done by the Brazilians and my seniors. They were fantastic. The worshop for Mortals were something new to me, i don't even know how to flip myself and how to get the momentyhm. Profeseur Gringo and Insturctor Claudinho, and Coelho assist us and coaching us how to flip ourselves. I just can't believe that I've done it. We went for a dance class as well, conducted by Claudinho...which is Forro. This is really fun... LOL...

The night in MAISON, we were having the Viva Brasil Party... My seniors and the instuctors from Brasil did the performance there in the club. They perform the Maculele, Capoeira Regional, Capoeira Angola, and never forget the Samba percussion. When Rafael and Gringo were palying the Angola, everyone were laughing because it was so funny. They use their skills to challenge each other and making fun of each other.









Batizado is the day when all of us the beginenrs getting 'Baptized' by our Mestre, Profeseur, or Intructors... Basically I was 'Baptized' by my Instrutor Rafael, he gave me a 'headbutt'... that w as a good one. At last I got my Coral Corda. Then we have to play with our visitors from Singapore, Thailand, and Australia... Whoohoo...!!!






We really enjoy to the MAX... the party continue after the Batizado all the way to Marissa's place in the afternoon for Barbeque...

Hope to see more Capoeiristas next Batizado... Bantus Capoeira for LIFE...!!!
