Ohkay.. now back to my story!
Yes the finals! The night before, went out with Joni and Esther, Chung Yeee, and Kevin, watched CORPSE BRIDE! Pleaaasee dunt watch that movie I beg of you!
Ohkay, maybe the graphics was impressive, but I didn’t enjoy the movie at all. Id give it a 3 outta 10 ! im dead serious!
Then after that adjourned to Kevin’s Dad’s place for dinner, the pub and restaurant was called TITANIC in Taman Tun. Loved the atmosphere there, there was good food and best of all there was a live band there, consisting of 40 year old dudes, palying, and the singing …awesome!!
To make the night only better, Kevin’s dad charges us all RM 4 each for salmon, Steak, and RIBS! That’s crazeeee!!
Thank you Uncle!!
REALLY APPRECIATE IT! BLESS YA!
Dad called up that morning and told me that he was in kl!!! So, I quickly called the PR company in charge, yes thanks to SHEENA, I managed to get my dad and his friend, Uncle to get in! Thank You SHEEENA, really appreciate it. Coz I didn’t wanna call my 20 peeps I invited and ask them not to come…thanks Sheena!!
So, the next day, the MTV FINALS DAY!!
Woke up around 10, and headed to Hotel Maya. Met up with Shon firt, and then eventually then Aiman and Temily, was briefed by the MTV crew of what was going to happen, and there was a team ready, that was in charge of taking “BEHIND THE SCENSE” for editing purposes, which will be included in the video that will be presented *as told* on 2nd of DECEMBER on ur ASTRO MTV!
We had our rehearsals, met up with KC Monterro, the MC for the night, also a MTV VJ from manila, kinda a layed back dude. Really easy to talk to, nothing like a STAR STAR. Yeah, felt comfortable. We did our rehearsals, mind you was for the camera’s of our positions, coz there were actually 4 camera shooting the stage at a single time…so yeah, they wanted to adjust the audio, the video and everything. Nothing of the competition details were given. *keke*
So all this time, the “behind the scene” crew were following us around, and we were interacting with the camera and all. After a while, it felt really comfortable with it.. no hiccups, just one shot and got it done.. and so well, that I was almost doing all the talking at once! Haha
Then at around 4 sumthing, we went back to the hotel, and bath, did our make-up and hair. Haha, the room wasn’t as classy as the one in HILTON, but it was definitely nice! Hahah. Yeap. And yes, the camera was around too! Hahah now I cant wait to watch the edited version of it all.
Haha
Walked over to ZOUC at 6pm. There were people standing outside waiting already, had eyes looking..haha, but was allrtie with that already. Just smiled and just walked on. Haha.
DAD was one of the earliest there.
Was soo happy that at least someone from my family was there to witness sumthing important. So MDK managed to get them in, and later was invited to sit in the VIP AREA upstairs.!! Haha, my Dad was soo happy with the treatment! And thanks to MDK again!
Hahah
Later saw my friends coming, thank you for coming really appreciated it!

Thank you!
Called mum, before it started.
“Mum, wer gonna start soon.. gonna off my phone soon.” I said
“oh, is it live?” she asked
“No its not. It will be delayed broadcast later” I replied.
“Mum, I wunt do my best! Coz I promised you, I just want you to know that I love you and I LOVE got more! And I want you to knw that I wanna obey you!” eyes began to filled with wetness
“ Good ..son. *siiighh* , lets just leave it to God larr! “ she replied
“I love you Son” she said
“…. I love you too Maa” I answered
“bye”
“bye”
Aunty Judy and Aunty Irene called. And asked me to give my best.
I kept quiet, and said thank you.
And I just wanna say sorry to all of you who was expecting my best up there. But I pray that you see that as much as I want my dreams to happen, and to do the most impossible, above all things, I wanna tell you that I choose to HONOR my GOD, who in HIS word asks us to obey your parents! And I chose to fear God above all other things!
So we had to introduced ourselves first, so I did a lil intro *hahah* .was a lil nervous there, especially seeing those 7 letters in LARGE BOARD IN HALF AIR "B E R N A R D" coz I really didn’t prepare that one.. did a lil rap that went like this
“wsup all you ppl in the house tonight,
Oh no, its not recorded, im rapping live
Gimme your ears, why dunt you please,
Coz this is the first time im doing this
Making it here I give praise to God,
Coz he is everything that ive every Got
(then I heard JAMES shout WHOOOHOOO yes I heard you james! )
Too phat’s in da house, everybody clap!
(everyone actually did clap! Which amazed me!!)
Coz those two dudes are 2 fine chaps
Too phat’s in da house, everybody Shout!!!
(put the mic to the audience, …yup EVERYBODY SHOUTEEDDD!! ..it was crazeee)
Coz they just love it when its nice and loud!
I knwww….
They’re dance, they sing, much better than me
That is why they are celebrity!!
BUT
They’re cool, they’re smooth, they’re handsum , They’re beautiful,
just like you and me!!
That is why wer all here with MTV!!!
(laughters)
thank you "
that really lifted the standard a bit, and Aiman danced, and had to do a flip over and landed on his back flat on the floor! really got everyones attention! it was either a really bad mistake or it was really a good tactic! hahah
the show went on with us answering some objective questions about the music industry, questions like who was Lindsay LOhan's ex boyfriend, where is kelly clarkson gonna have her next concert, what is Too phat's new movie title,
we got almost almost all correct, and they were having hard time differentiating us, and everybody thought that part was a lil too easy.. (they say!! seesh))
haha, then there was the individual perfomrance part, where we had to pick an envelope and do the challenge inside, the one i picked neede me to choreograph a boyband dance! haha, had fun in that one.. so, Colby came up, the music started and he did his thing, and then i had to choreograph and change the thing.
sorry jocelyn , forgot wat was the song called, but it goes like "toot toot, teet teet ..then waterver watever blah blahh.. then TOOT TOO, TEET TEET"
sumthing like that.
haha, and i did the MAHJONG move! hahah
that was wheneverybody laughed! and i got most of the crowd then!
hahah
the last part was to answer a question from one of the panel of judges. i got my question from Bryan, asking me why is important to me. i answerd naturally, becuase i grew up very closed to music, it resonate with my soul really effectively, coming froma church background, singing in church and all, i said that music has the power to connect to pppl effectively.
But Temily didnt have a fun time, Aznil was teasing her a lil bit, but i thought that beinga 15 years old, having to succumb to that amount of pressure was a lil bit too much, but i guess Aznil has got a point there, i mean, if you seriously wanna become a VJ, you'll be facing with judgements and shit talk like that. and if you cant take it, then maybe VJ aint the suitbale thing for you!
enwei, then they announced the VIEWER'S CHOICE AWARD!!
This award is given to the finalist who, in the audience hearts shoudl become thier Vj, accoridng to SMS votes and also online voting.
"and the winner is .... BERNARD!!"
YUP!!! IT WAS MEE!! HAHAH
i went up, the crowd was WOOOHOOOOOO!!!
WAS HAPPY!! haha, and when asked to say sumthing
" i wanna thank all my yimarr, gu jehh, ah sou..." *crowd laughed!!
"yeah but i waana thank all those who have supported me, in both voting and prayers, my church, my family back home in sabah! my friends who couldnt be here tonight, but who have really supported mt througha ll this"
*sumthign liek taht*
but i remembered saying, i wanna thank My Lord, Jesus Christ, all honor and Glory goes to Him !" (hope they dunt edit that one)
then the annoucnement of winners was on. we were handed each a handphone. and whoever ones ring will eventually becomes the winner.Then Aiman's phone rang!
and He won it!!
we were all suprised bout it! hahah
EVEN HE WAS!! HE WAS SUPERSTONNED! hahaha
yeah, and i could felt his excitement when we hugged, man, ive never been hugged that hard before!! hahah
and right before that, he was saying
"shit man, i dunno what i was answering Donita then man!! " and i was ensuring taht all was gonna be allrite.!! hahah
mana tahu!! haha
enwei, the show ended, we took pictures.from the press and all.
and after that, Digi people came over and handed us the prizes. and helped us set up our prizes.
So sorry for those who waited, coz there was an interview later on, and you guys had to wait so long.. but yeah, managed to take pictures with some of the fans, and some ppl asked to take pics.so yeah, hope i get to see those pics! haha
then went up to the vip area for interview with PRESS. My interview took quite a long time. i was wondering why mine was so long, the whole cell was waiting outside. enewei, had a funt ime with the press. got them loving mea nd adoring me for a while! haha
they began asking questions, and its amazing, when you say things, and 7 ppl start writine the things taht you are saying. !! should try it sometime!
haha
they began asking questions like wat do you think of aiman winning?
i said, honestly, it caught me by surpise when they annoucned it. (they paused looked at me, and continuing , only this time writting faster)
so you think that he didnt deserved to win?
i ansered, No, Mtv hd someone in mind and they wre looking for the qualities that they wanted, and Aiman apparently has that MTV factor taht they were looking for. and yes, im allrtie with Aiman winning it, but it just came like a suprise.
so, when they announced you to be the Viewer's choice, who did you think would be possibly winning it?
i said, i thought i was winning it. *they laughed and nodded thier head*
why?
i said, because i thought that i gave a good performance, and i controlled and engaged the crowd really well, wouldnt say that the rest didnt do a good job, but i said i did a very good job in that area especially.
At this time, they began to relax, and was really chatting with me, and asking me questions about my family, where i come from, who am i with now, in kl alone, working? whre do i usually hangout..
began telling them bout church, wanna thank my Lord, jesus christ...(all that once again) , my mum...
and they began saying that i looked familiar, kept on asking me have i ever did any commercials, any video appeared on TV before, one said that i looked like the cameo in the "SEPET" movie.
AND NO, I HAVE NEVER DONE ANY OF THAT, BUT IF THERES ANYONE INTERESTED IN LOOKING FOR ME TO DO ANY JOBS FOR MC, OR ADVERTS, PLEASE CONTACT ME! THANK YOU!! PASS THE WORD AROUND!! (i told them this too) ,hahah
remembered one asked me if i have a gurlfriend. i said no.
"ohh? so are you single and available?" or "single but not available?"
"im single and available" i answered
"when was your last relationship?" another asked
"i never had a gurlfriend before" i replied.
"WHHHHATTTT? all of them
hahahah
"yeah" i said.
"you never had a gurlfreind?" "NOPE"
"you never had a gurlfreind?" "NOPE"
"youuuu never had a gurlfreind?" "NOPE"
she stopped for a while..
"you never had a boyfriend?" " nope, that a no too!" hahahah
yeah, hahah..
then they continued with askingme to try other things, like 8tv and all.
**YES IF YOU WANNA CONTACT ME ABOUT ANY OF THOSE JOBS. plese leave me a message, or write sumthing at the tagger at the side! thank you!!
well, what did i win?
