The first video after 2 months of hiatus!! This is the Episode 7, ‘Don’t Be Greedy’. It makes sense to all of us and as a reminder, not to be greedy – no matter what it is. You can now watch me on video, how do I look/sound like when I just woke up..

Great! Thank you! Guess what – I did this money illusion about 5 years ago and lost it somewhere. 5 years LATER, my mom was searching for some old bags in the store, and she found this wonderful piece of magic inside my pouch!! Haha! Thanks mom! You’re wonderful! Love you!! All moms are great at something.. you know what I meant right? :D

I make my own money!! I don't print them

At least now I’ve answered a common question from many people, I make money my own money! But being greedy will bring harm to ourselves. Now, how have you guys been? I want to meet up with you guys again, especially fellow bloggers I met before. Tomorrow, I will be meeting up with a  famous blogger from Malaysia. Unable to tell you who is it, but you will know soon. Gonna bring my camera to make some videos there….. magic videos.

To Chinese people who are celebrating the 7th month thingy, please lower down your speakers volume. 12am with loud noises from the stage, speakers means pollution!!! ):

To all my Muslim friends, Happy Ramadhan 2010!! And enjoy yourself when you break your fast. (:

See you soon, on the street.

Thank you so much everyone!! Thank you. Love all of you!

With Love,
AL

PS:   I brushed my teeth before I made that video above.

Yellow! How you guys been doing? I know it’s terrible of me to leave you guys for exactly 2 months long. I will never do that again. What has been done, is done. No point to start things over and over again. I had too much of drama so I got away with it by stop blogging for two months and enjoy my time with my friends. It wasn’t a great idea. Similar to – to have your fingers cut off and unable to dig your own nose. Something like that..

First of all, the contest to win a magic trick.. it was a TERRIBLE mistake. I should have got a 3rd party to do it for me instead. People chased after me and said it wasn’t a right thing to do. Then I decided to put up a FreeTRICKS whenever I want without any contest!

Secondly, despite many feedbacks from fellow magicians and readers, I will now put up my own personal reviews on the latest and old magic tricks, especially magic props to let my readers to have better understanding of the end product before they purchase it.

Last but not least, the videos are now back on the track!!! Tomorrow will be the 8th episode. I’m sorry people to have stalled all of you for so long. Thanks for the concern. I’m all fine now, though I did cut myself into halves.. yeah..

Oh.. I’ve missed out.. New categories will be added here soon. Hehe

PS:   This is the Malaysia ‘s First MAGIC Blog. How can I kill it anyway? (:

Thank you for everyone’s concern. Most of you may not know but my laptop had betrayed me and died for the past 4 days. Hence, no laptop, not working. Been 4 days without blogging or communicating with the outside world via internet. Feeling bad for not able to bring the best entertainment on time to everyone today.

Now that I got myself a new laptop.. Still I’ve lost plenty of my files in the old junk. Will upload new magic video, EPISODE 7 tomorrow. I wish that I can make a new video by today but this (new laptop), the ATI driver is not working like it supposed to be. Nothing much I can do about it..

Lastly, I would like to thank my family members and friends for being so supportive towards my work and my fans, without you guys.. I will not keep running this site. Just stay tuned, tomorrow will be our big day!!

Sincerely,
AL

P.S:   Pissed off at HP laptops.. junks..

Updated:
The new laptop can’t play sound from the video I made! Hence, no voice! If anybody can help me with this, I could quickly upload new videos!! Thank you!! I tried many codecs.. do you have any other players that work perfectly?

Yo! Sorry for the delay. Here’s the all new episode 5 of AL Magic series! The following magic performance is a special episode from myself, personally to support the effort of protecting our Mother Earth (Gaia)! All materials used in this video were all recycled after performance.. except the performer!

I really appreciate everyone’s concern over our environment. A little bit of effort means a lot to our next generation, our children of tomorrow and our Future.. (trust 2012). Recycle! Please recycle! To magicians and magic enthusiasts, if you want to be a professional, invent and create your own magic with the tools you have at home, it’ll be your only customize magic prop and it’s cheap to make! It’s fun!!

3 Unusual sightings in the video;

  1. My family and I don’t own any Perodua Kenari
  2. I actually signed my name on the paper without knowing why..
  3. Did you see the girl (student) walk by? Haha!!

You know.. it wasn't really outdated issue.. it was MAY issue!!!

How many copies of this type, printed material you can find at home?

If you could recycle the monthly newsletters and papers at home, you can earn more than RM50!!

Start to make a change. Make that change.

Recycle and save our lovely home planet, this is our chance to prove ourselves being part of this family.. make it right before it’s too late..

Recycled Performer,
AL

P.S:   Met Kenwooi last night at PJLA, Jaya One. It was great! Nice to meet you! =D

Thank you Google Adsense team! Yes! Finally got my application approved. Now I can say “bye bye” to several other advertising service providers. It’s Money ($) making with what you’re doing and it actually pays very well. I cash out for my unbelievable expense. Trust me, it’s better with Google Adsense.

And I’ve added the Facebook LIKE button for every post (below the tags). You may, click it now =)

Tomorrow, I will upload the 5th episode of my Magic series on AdrianLeong.com. With the effort of protecting our Mother Earth (Gaia) by reducing wastage and support recycle, I’ve decided to perform a magic which involves outdated magazines that can be found in most homes. The magazines not only serve as our information provider but waste matter without recycling.

Please recycle or sell the outdated magazine to protect our Mother Earth!

I would like to express my gratitude to those are concern about my health condition. NO worries, I’m fine. Only that I’ve been such a workaholic to suffer back pain after extensive hours of sitting on the chair or standing. Lack of sleep too. Will definitely get some rest after this. Thanks for everyone’s concern. Been busy with several projects and magic making stuff.

Oh yes, I’ve got the tickets to the Caught In The Middle Pt IV at PJLA, Jaya One. I would love to meet you guys if you’re going. It’ll be awesome! Of course, will update my blog and video earlier before I leave my house. Haha! So.. see you there alright? =)

See You Tomorrow,
AL

P.S:   I’ve lost weight?????????

Last week – my friend John came to me and said that he needed me to help him out on a talent quest. He wanted to win the competition very much (Champion – RM6000) and I decided to lend a hand. John didn’t want to sing or dance, magic would be the best choice to be outstanding. The preliminary round, I taught him the torn and restore newspaper illusion.

Last night – John told me that he won the first round. Next round would commence in a week or 2. I will then teach him the quick change (change clothes under speed of light). I don’t want to miss this opportunity to show it to everyone, I will perform it personally for John’s understanding and your entertainment right here =) But be patient until Wednesday.

Several updates here;

  1. CIMB rejected my first video submission which intended to be viewed publicly in their branches. Because the quality no good enough. (It’s home video, what to expect!) But I’ll make new one.
  2. A footwear company had finally approved me to perform magic with their products. Might be my sponsor for my TV show if it turns out good.
  3. I’ve contacted a coffee cafe company to allow me hosting a small gathering for my fans, bloggers and friends. Free drinks provided!!
  4. A contest will be on the run starting next week, more information will be post here.
  5. I lost my shaver!!!! Need one badly..
  6. Expect more and more magic shows here as I created quite a number of routines and illusions.

What more can I say.. AdrianLeong.com has been doing so good because of more than thousand of viewers and support! Great Thank you for everyone! I’m planning something big for this year..

Allow Me To Teach You A Simple Magic Here

That’s right!! I’m going to teach you a simple magic trick which you can impress your friends and family, especially your mom (it’s Mothers’ Day). It’s a pretty cool trick which falls under the category of Mentalism, also known as Mental Magic or mind reading. You don’t have to be a psychic to know what’s on their mind..

I’ll let this be as simple as possible for you. NO, this is not the usual common magic trick you can find.

  • Think of a number from 1 – 9
  • Multiply it with number 2
  • Add it with number 5
  • Multiply it with number 5
  • (To make it difficult for me to read your mind) Think of another number from 1 – 9 and add into the total
  • Then you should be able to know your final result.

If you’re going to impress someone with this trick, ask them to tell you the final result of the equation. Then you subtract the number (final result) with 25, of course – you need to do this in your head! Example: 89 – 25 = 64.

6 will be the first number of the person thought of, and 4 will be the last number. Is it correct to you? =) If you don’t understand, comment here and I’ll explain more in details. To make this effect awesome, make sure you don’t use any devices to calculate. Just act cool and experience how other people get amazed by you!

Before I take my leave, I want to wish my lovely mom and grandma, and all the mothers around the world – HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY!!

Signed,
AL

P.S:   I’m not spoiling the trick by teaching, I simply want people to learn simple tricks so they put a smile on their friends and family faces.. enjoy.

I made this video as short as possible, 1 minute and 18 seconds in length. Tell you more after the show. Enjoy! =)

I know the video is short. But it has to be short! The previous one was 619MB and took me more than 4 hours to upload a good quality video. Anyway, we (John and I) have tried with many different coins but only the 1 cent (penny) looked better with the glass.

A number of friends asked why did I not use the glass coffee table. Well, it will look like any ‘magic table‘, which most people would mistaken it that way. I would rather use the items which I can find at home to construct a similar ‘glass table’ to perform the magic.

Constructing the glass 'table'

The 50 cents coin which I had earlier..

Coin penetrated through the solid glass!

This is one of my favorite piece of magic which I rarely perform. I lost the manuscript in my store room since years ago. Haha! With my determination to present entertaining magic to you, I also found my running shoes there!! No more reason why I should not run! That’s all.. I have to relax a bit before my next video.

By the way, thanks John!

Yo! Awesome filming on Sunday. Tested twice, then got it all DONE! It was quicker than I thought. An hour of loitering at my hometown. Here;

Just arrived at the house.

Got into the car after filming session. Haha!

It was all good.. until I decided to stop by at Leisure Mall to check out any sales or stuff that I’ve been looking for. When I walked pass Starbucks, unfamiliar couple (UC) came to me and asked;

UC : Hey! Are you Aaron Liong..?
AL : Uh….. eh.. NO?
UC : No no.. I see your magic in internet. You are Aaron!!
AL : *Haha! I’m Adrian Leong, nice to meet you. *smile.
UC : Oh sorry!! Yes yes! Adrian Leong! I am K and she is J. You stay around here? Can do magic now??
AL : I managed to stop by here by chance.. uh.. sure! It’s my pleasure. *smile

And so I performed 2 tricks for the couple and ended with a napkin flower for the lady (I hope he won’t jealous). Hehe! EPIC!!!! Seriously??? I meant, people just bumped into me and asked me to perform magic for them. Haha!! Sorry, I forgotten your name if you’re reading this. Terrible of me. Hope to see you again =D

Sigh, didn’t take any photos or videos. Otherwise everyone can see their reaction – BOOM!! Just like that..

Video done, now left editing only. Will upload it on Wednesday. BE PATIENT!! Especially you.. FoongPC. Haha! Thanks for being such nice friend and supporting my performances. =D

AL

I promised Alan to post this photo.. woot!
