Hi Malaysian cookies,
Apa khabar, kawan-kawan?
I'm originally from KL, came to the U.S. for college in 1980 and have been in the States ever since. It's wonderful to see that Cookie has fans in Malaysia. I'm one of David's older fans as you can probably guess from the 1980 date. But still very young at heart!!!
I consider myself so incredibly lucky because I had an opportunity to see him in concert and actually got to MEET him in person (he is to die for...) Even more gorgeous in person, just pure beauty in body and soul. He's so down-to-earth, authentic, accomodating, personable, and an absolute sweetheart of a guy. What I really like about him, in addition to one hundred million other things, is that he looks you directly in the eye when you are saying something to him. He's actually listening to what you're saying although the entire room is filled with people and it's noisy and there's a lot going on, but he makes you feel like you're the only person in the room. He gives each person who is with him his full attention. How sincere and sweet is that?
I actually wrote a blog about that day and have photos taken with him on my website:

Click on the Blog, Photos or Movie (video of him singing Billie Jean) links at the top for my impressions of that unforgettable day. If you click on each photo you can get a larger image.
I also posted my concert experience here at d-c.org. If you're interested, you can find them under the AI Live Tour forum. The posts are in 2 parts, and they're named
08/20/08 Sunrise, FL concert Part I and
Sunrise, FL concert 08/20/08 Part II (or something like that). The dates of the posts are around 08/22/08 and 08/23/08 (I think...it's been awhile ago!!)
Selamat tinggal, fellow Malaysian word nerds,
Angie

Hey Angie,
It's great to hear from a fellow Malaysian WN all the way from the US.
Congrats for meeting David. I WISH for that day to come.....counting my luck!
Do spread the words to David or his management (if you could possibly can) about the MSIAN WORD NERDS here. We are crazy about him and his music!

Hey guys, I posted this on DCO and the SG thread. but here it is:
The Archie equivalent of us Cookies sent me an email.
(she's from davidarchuleta.sg and i created davidcooksingapore.wordpress.com)
Basically she got an email saying that it is possible to get both DavidS coming to Singapore for a concert from Tinsel Entertainment Asia Pte Ltd.
What we need now are our NUMBERSSS
(that is the amount of Cookie/Archie fans in Singapore/Malaysia/wherever else)
I think that fans from neighbouring countries might be interested as well, so will you do this survey for me to collate the number of fans?
http://www.polldaddy.com/s/544EDA0617395DF8/Send it to all your families and friends, but when the concert becomes reality, ask them to come as well!!
Anyone interested ??? ; )
Hey Widz,
You are so quick. I just copied the poll link from DCO and wanted to paste it here...and there you are!
I tell you.....David's fans are insanely quick, which is a good thing! "I'm alright with that" *wink wink*
Anyway....i did the poll already. Spore is definitely easier for me to go than Manila. And I have no doubt, yourself and Seth are great hosts if we fellow Msian WNs were to hop over!
Fingers crossed.........hope to see you all for Cookie's concert there. We'll give D an unforgettable night, eh!
