My World
Ever since I announced to my people, my desire and dream to set foot in music land and to record my debut album, I've been receiving mixed reactions. Appreciated wat they had to say, every single one of them. Be it positive or negative, love or hate, honest or white lies. However to fully understand the world that I am in, I juz can't help but categorise my people in 3 different groups. 1) The BELIEVERS - The ones who's at the top of my list. The ones who's always asking " How I can help you achieve this music dream?". Keeping me focus. Utilising their resources (time, money) on me. My dream is beginning to be a part of their dream. I'll be forever indebted to you guys. Rest assured, disappointing u guys had never even crossed my mind. 2) The SUPPORTERS/ WELL-WISHERS - The ones in the middle. Could make their way up to No 1 or tumble to No 3. "Good luck" , "Best wishes", "May you succeed".....The order of the day. Still an essential part of my world. Observing from afar. My failure or success don't really matter to them but they will want to share my happiness if i do succeed. 3) The DOUBTERS / NON-BELIEVERS - Not even a slightest ounce of confidence in my dream. Expert in planting seeds of doubt. Juz waiting to say " I told u so". My failure would be a delicacy to savour.ZAIBAKTIAN ]|[ Sunday, January 28, 2007

The Path Ahead
I've kickstarted my music career. Constantly reading up and researching all that's to know abt the music biz. Meeting. sharing and conversing wif nice people who's got all to do wif music. Enjoyed every moment of them! It's still too early to say if I'll succeed but then I wouldn't call it a dream, would I? However would like to say my heartfelt thanks to everyone (u guys know who u are!) who helped initiate and assisted my chance to dream. Presently I'm making good progress for my album production. Come to think of it, 6 mths ago I wasn't even thinking of making music..haha...now i'm sitting in my "half-cooked" studio, possessing adequate tools to produce my own music. Thanks to Allah....without whom I would never be able to undertake His assignments. Alhamdulillah..... I have about 12 songs, all self-written, in my collection whereby I've finalised the arrangements of 4 songs. If circumstances permit, I'll be making my entry into a recording studio for the very 1st time at the end of Feb 2007.ZAIBAKTIAN ]|[ Tuesday, January 16, 2007

When Tears Flow....
I believe strongly in always looking ahead with optimism and positivity. However got to still reflect the past. The past has led me to the present. It's wat made me today. Looking back at 2006: i'm describing it as a time where tears flow freely: a period of reflection and discovery. It was all gloom when 2006 came and it ended with bright, shining lights illuminating my every way. I'll remember it as the time when I was given the chance by God to examine my life, family and friends. Got my life back on track, loved my family to death..appreciated their presence even more and friends ??? it was an opportunity to sieve....the diamonds came out sparkling, the fakes' just a whisper in the wind.ZAIBAKTIAN ]|[ Monday, January 15, 2007

2007 - Wat will it be for me??
i'm going to kickstart my new year's resolution as of today....one of them will be start posting in this blog as often i could. Life as a journey??...would be a waste if i don't pen it down in words. presently i'm embarking on a journey towards a music career. it's funny...mind boggling, at least to me, that i've never even thought of pursuing something major at this stage of my life. But life's a game and the choices you make determines ur path. got to thank Allah for this! He has given me the courage and open doors for me to live this dream. Anyway, little baby steps have been taken to ensure that it's won't juz be a dream.ZAIBAKTIAN ]|[ Sunday, January 07, 2007
