Another BATTLEGROUND Experience! (Asian Battleground 2014)

  Hey guys, I thought that last Saturday night was really great, because I got to watch Astro Battleground Grand Finals LIVE, in the Megastar Arena, and the team we supported was 'Fearless' gained VICTORY and won the finals. If you want to know more and mainly about that night, look at last week's post. I thought that was the end of Battleground and it was a bummer for how much I wanted to watch Fearless and S-Striker again in Battleground for how much vibe both teams gave me and everyone. Until somewhere around this week, my mom told me there was still another show on last Friday night, and that made jump as a high as a bunny(Excited), to see Fearless and S-Striker once more, but this time, its Asian Battleground, which then contains crews from a variety of different countries. (Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, Hong Kong, China, Philippines and here, Malaysia.) There was only 2 stages, First Stage was each teams performing their own unique style. There will be the Top 4 teams with the best styles then the final stage will be the Battle which will be always the final and most interesting one, which 2 different teams will be on stage to battle and take turns to dance for 30 seconds per team.
  There were some interesting teams that I thought were going to the Top 4, but some of my personally lower rated teams were at the Top 4. This was Asian Battleground, so we definitely wanted the Malaysian Teams to help prove ourselves worthy, so no matter Fearless or S-Striker, we wanted either to win. Sadly, Fearless didnt do so well in the first stage, which is their style. It didnt create a feel for the people who saw the show last Saturday night, because both Fearless and S-Striker did the same dance for both nights for the start, because last week's first stage was the same, named "The Style". Fearless lost their confidence and energy during Friday night's battleground, and they even made one big obvious stunt fail, which was really disappointing to see. So they were ranked 8 out of the 14 groups. (It was a sad night) But luckily our hearts rise up really high, when S-Striker made it to Top 4 (Ranked No.4) which we still had hope in Malaysia. They also went into the Final 2 teams against Korea's Just Jerk Crew which got a lot of screams and cheers(consist 5 good looking Korean Boys, what do you think?). I was sure with my family and my friend that S-Stiker won the battle with more creativity and variety of dance moves, while Just Jerk did the same style and followed the beat well, but it soon became boring to watch. But the Just Jerk won the Asian Battleground, which me and my friend just poker faced each other, and it was a sadder night after that. After seeing Fearless going so down hill, we really thought faith would come by. By its still a decision by the judges, which we cannot change, even if we thought S-Striker would win in our hearts. 
  That is a basic summary of the night, and I hope for to put out more posts in the holidays, because the holidays are coming to end next week so I need to create events myself to cherish the free time i have, anyways have a great week everyone!

A FEARLESS FINALE! (Watched Astro Battleground Finals LIVE!)

     Hey guys, and I just watched Astro Battleground Finals LIVE last night, with my mom, my maid and my friend that I invited because we got an extra ticket, and my friend "Loh Jie" is a great Battleground fan, and he is a good dancer himself.(Especially breakdancing). My maid was also a fill up for the ticket because originally the 4 tickets was for my whole family but my sister and my dad got to attend their own individual events. This was the first experience for me to going to a live TV show, and its even Astro Battleground which is so cool to see it in front of your eyes, rather than a screen. The two final teams were Fearless vs 
S-STRIKER. The team we were supporting was 'Fearless', because that is the reason we got the tickets, my mom's close friend, Auntie Brenda gave us the free tickets to support her son, Darren which was in 'Fearless'. The Grand Finale for Astro Battleground was held in Megastar Arena, which looked very sick(another word for cool) inside, but not so on the outside. 

  When we got to the entrance of the Megastar Arena, which everybody needed to wait there, a whole bunch of people were wearing Red Tees for FEARLESS, and Blue Tees for S-STRIKER. If you get there early, you can get a free T-Shirt from one team before it runs out of stock. And fortunately we got them! 

Group of people supplying the red, hot and FEARLESS tees.

Unfortunately, I couldnt find any S-STRIKER tees for you guys to see, but never mind lets carry on. We thought we would get early and get good 'seats', but only the VIPs can sit on chairs, while the non VIPs had to stand and watch, which I thought was worth it. There are seven stages for the 2 teams need to go through, and winning a stage gives that team a point, so the team which reaches 4 points first would win and get RM50,000 for the whole team. Then after the 7 stages, there will be a One on One battle among the winning team, to see who the best among themselves and win RM20,000 for the individual.

  I wont go into detail about the whole night, but I will say that the crew we supported, FEARLESS WON!! Which was really intense and exciting to see the results, it was at 3-3 before the last stage, and from that point we were yelling our lungs out(I honestly didnt really shout, but I did in my heart) for our own supporting crew.But I have to save the last stage, which was a battle, which both crews will be on stage and dance against each other, rather than the last 6 stages, which is their own choreographed dances and is Fearless going on stage, then S-Striker after. My hip hop teacher, Teacher Dylan was an ex-Astro Battleground contestant, and he was 5th runner up with his crew. But there is a stage where its called "The Return", where past astro battleground contestants can help one group to improve performance and creates more vibe and energy. Tr Dylan choose to help S-Striker which was a bummer, because its difficult not to support your Hip Hop teacher. It was a mental roller coaster ride for everyone, and I had a great night with my friend Loh Jie, which was great full to have the free tickets, and he said he watched this season since Episode 1. 

  I wish that I could have more great events like this over the holidays, and there is still 2 more weeks, till school breaks out again, which is still long as heck. Anyways, have good a week and Happy School Holidays!
