i knew this question was coming.how did i becoma a Shuvita? (in case you're wondering,Shuvita is the nickname given to the girl fans of Pop Shuvit,you know,just like how the fans of Hujan are being nicknamed 'RAINgers').that picture was taken recently during Pop Shuvit's meet & greet at Rock The World 9.many had speculated the fact that I only became a Shuvita after Camp Rock,that is,after JD helped me get a discount on my first guitar.think about it people,be a fan of someone just because you feel that you need to repay them?nonsense.as a matter of fact,i've been supporting them since the very beginning of their career.Pop Shuvit was formed in 2000,10 years ago.i supported them since 2001.i loved their songs since i was a child.my most favourite is of course Journey and Skater's Anthem.fyi,those songs were dated back in the early decade of 2000.they were all young,(not saying now they're old,haha)in their early 20s when they started performing and recording tracks.i was really fascinated of their determination,starting with recording their on songs in a smallish room in JD's appartment,until they are established enough to conquer the mainstream and open up their own studio.i for one am inspired by them since young.i even have an ammateur mixing software,hoping to develop my interest to be like them.Camp Rock was a bonus,not only did I get to live my dreams to attend a performing arts camp,but also to learn from my idols.i kept in touch with JD to this day,and if you had the chance to read my old blog,i visited his studio just to know more.i'm really really interested in sound engineering.unfortunately,in malaysia,any career related to art is being underestimated.it's tough,you have to compete and make your own breakthrough.Pop Shuvit,frankly,is very humble.they have achieved so many in comparison to the other senior bands.they've traveled far and wide,lands in the orient are demanding for them.in fact,this year,opportunity comes rolling in for them.their application to perform in SXSW (one of the most prestigious music fest held annually in Austin,Texas) had been accepted.indeed,i'm proud of them,not just because i feel proud having supported them since the very beginning,but also as a malaysian.it's a major privilege for them to go as far as the rest of the international artistes.for me,it's about time.they've come a long way,and they've helped many.they deserve it.congratulations Pop SHuvit! make malaysians proud! we love you.and,thanks for helping me in music. :)

it's an honor to be your protege',JD.
