MixFM Karaoke Party @ Red Box Plus, Pavilion KL

Well, all it took for me to win 2 invitations to the Karaoke Party was to sing on air. It was a Wednesday night, so I don't think anyone I know heard my voice over the radio. Hahah.

Reached there early, about 6.40pm, thankfully, the traffic was pretty cooperative, I expected it to be much worse. Got up to the Times bookstore and got myself a copy of GameAxis Magazine to keep myself occupied. Met up with Leanne, whom I invited to the party with me, her bro and her mom. After a short conversation, we went our own ways. Got to the place, and went into the room.
There's room 10. Its a really huge room, said to fit 50 people, but i don't think there are enough seats. It's pretty cool too, with an LCD projector as the screen, and some holes in the wall we can use to sit/lean on.

Moments later, Jay arrived, followed by Anu, Lynn, Serena C, Roshan, DJ Snipe, Sham and finally Pietro. Everyone was asked to pick a song, so I decided to pick Everything by Michael Buble. Tried not to screw anything, I did my best in singing it, and it was pretty good. Some of the people started praising me, wow maybe I should take up singing huh? Yeah and I personally got told by Serena C that I'm a good singer too. =p

Talked to Roshan quite a bit. He's very friendly. Also talked to Serena C because Leanne knows her and we got into a little conversation. Did not talk much to Pietro as he needs to leave earlier since he has work with Serena C in the next morning, so I quickly asked for a shot with him.
Also got a shot together with Serena C and Leanne, this photo is taken by Roshan. I've got some shots with him too.
He's a very tall guy, he bent his knee's a little in the picture with me, and did not do it at all in the picture with Leanne, well she's the one that asked him not to. Got a shot with Sham too.
Yeah, hes big, bald and has a deep voice. This shot is taken while singing Touch My Body by Mariah Carey, and yes, I'm actually touching his belly.

It's very fun, considering it's just a Karaoke Party, the fact that we get to have fun with our favourite announcers more than makes up for it. They are all so funny and fun to be with. After some time Leanne needed to go home a little earlier. About 10pm the party ended. Everyone left and I hanged back a little for some chat with the remaining announcers. Gave Sham my number too, asking him to call me if there are any events going on. Wow, will I ever get a call from him? Only time will tell.

Although the Party ended a little earlier than expected, I've had so much fun. I mean, to get to meet and sing with my favourite radio announcers, I am very happy and satisfied. It's been a while since I last had so much fun, and I thank all the people, and MixFM who made this all possible. Looking forward to another event with them again. =)
