There Goes another friend of mine....



ANOTHER MISTAKES ANOTHER LIFE GONE


27th March ....at 6 am in the morning,when the morning prayer call is being heard,My friend will say his last prayer and breath.He was sentenced to death for trafficking of drugs in early 2009.
I known him for 20 yrs now,a quiet guy with a great sense of humor and a loving son to single mum.Someone which i called a friend and a buddy.He will always be someone willing to help a friend in need and never say no to helping a friend.
This fri will his last day living and yes im sad,everybody makes mistakes but to die for a mistakes is a bit too drastic.Imagine a life cut short,imagine the agony the mum got to go thru and the loves one...
The law insist that he was responsible for the many drugs addict and life wasted,but i beg to differ.IF DRUG TRAFFICKER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LIFE LOST AND SUFFERING, SO DOES POLITICIAN,THEY TOO DESTROY LIFE AND PEOPLE.

To my dear fren,i will always pray for u and u will always be in my heart and mind.Your body might not be around but your spirits stays on.I wish i could do more than just praying for u,but my hands are tight.

28th FEB 2009

The day have come for me to perform for a live paying audience...Its not that i never do it before,its just that this one was different from the rest as all eyes will be looking at my 3 recipe 1) PRAWN IN CREAMY GARLIC 2)FRITATTA WITH MIXED VEGETABLES AND 3) BREAD LASAGNE... This is being sponsored by 3 big names in SG, which is WORLD KITCHEN,TURBO AND GARDENIA BREAD..The past few weeks have been a terrible week for me as i had some personal problems and issues which makes me having bad mood and feeling terrible.I was oso feeling nervous bout the events,putting me on a stage with CHEF SITI MASTURA was like putting me on a stage with GORDON RAMSEY OR JAMIE OLIVER( the different is she is more beautiful than the other 2) I have so much respect for CHEF SITI that she is the only one i listen to most of the time cos she is so neutral in giving advice and very good in giving one too. The day starts of good and i was very nervous until it starts,Once its start, i cant fumble or makes mistakes...as its live audience and its 230 ppl around me.Just imagine how i felt and OMG i was nervous.....very in fact. The ppl makes me feel comfortable and was very supporting and encouraging,despite the late start and some hiccups from the organiser, thinks went well,BUT I GUESS I WONT BE DOING THINGS LIKE THIS IN THE NEAR FUTURE...I wanna go back to my old life,life as a working chef and not a CELEBRITY CHEF.I just wanna be someone telling me that my food is really nice and not just to hear ppl say," hey ANDRI. I SAW U ON TV/PAPER THAT DAY".....I think i had enough of that and like i say before..ITS NOT THE FAME THAT I SEEK,BUT THE AWARENESS I CREATE.... I felt like at times i felt it takes too much time of my working hours to prepared all this and its just not worth all the trouble..A celebrity will fade, but a chef good food will be remembered..... I was happy that the event went well,too well and at the end of the day, i have lots of ppl taking pictures and recipe from me,at times i wish they would give the 3 chef involved a fair share of treatment and not just me, i never wanna over shadow my MENTOR CHEF SITI AND CHEF KOO cos these 2 ppl, really is the ppl i respect alot. I was truly happy with the write up they wrote in the papers and i thanks all of u who came and support me a very big thank u from the bottom of my heart..I refuse to call or name them as MY FANS.They are not a fans but they r my elderly,frens and even i love to called them my relatives.... TO TIA...DADDY IS STILL THE SAME AND NEVER FOR ONCE DADDY FELT LIKE A CELEBRITY,DADDY WILL ALWAYS LOVE U AS LONG AS DADDY LIVE.....
