- I want to watch Royal Pains but I'm too lazy to download the entire season. Already missed too many episodes on Star World so I can't catch up. Anyone with the complete set? Highly doubt it though because I don't think many people watch that show :(
- I want to watch Grey's Anatomy S1-S6 too. Yes, right from the very start because I want to say hello to McDreamy all over again. ANYONE? PLEASE SAVE ME.
- So, my finals are next week. I am having high hopes (kiasu side of me longs for perfection) but I'm not really putting in the equivalent amount of effort. Someone kick my arse please. I hope I don't have another screw up like the last exam where I cried after my first paper T_T
- It is so much easier to blog in point form when you don't really have anything specific to talk about yet still wanna talk.
- I am going to miss my friends for these two weeks. Every freaking night, I say NO to going out even if it's just for a simple drink. Why? Because I'll feel guilty if I do. Still, this doesn't stop me from playing pool so much bleh.
- Besides Mcd's (fully renovated already, go see) and Starbucks, where else is a conducive environment to study?! Please suggest some places. No I don't really like the library which closes at 10 pm.
- I know it's not fair, but I have to do what I have to do. Besides, some things make me feel revolted :\
- I plan to work during December and January. Two full months. Hopefully, the job I'm having my eyes on has a vacancy. Please please please. Anyone wants to join me? :) I need to earn some cash because I like having financial security. I've been broke (as in flat broke and unable to escape my so called 'recession') for about four months now. It's very pathetic and I hate being broke. Broke = not having a single cent in my ATM account boo.
- At Rack the other night (after studying 2 chapters of MKA ok! life is balanced), I saw this girl playing pool. She wasn't drop dead gorgeous or anything but there was something about her which kept my eyes fixated on her the entire time. I know I probably sound like a dude right now but it's true. The way she dressed, her hairstyle, her tattoos, and her body. OMG. Kept raving about her to my boyfriend. Sigh, she was the perfect size of skinny. Not anorexic thin but just perfect.
- Old picture from two months back. @ Republic.
- I am happy. Cried, argued, didn't even get 2 hours of sleep, skipped class, thought I was a goner, bla bla and yet things still turned out okay. You're one lucky man, Lee Chun Jui or I'd have chopped your head off.
- My sleeping hours are completely upside down now and I really need to adjust it back. I wish to be normal again! Which psycho is totally awake from 6 pm to around 9 am, and dead asleep from 9 am to 6 pm. Oh, the answer is me! This makes dating hard too LOL. Sigh I really don't get to see sunlight anymore. Reckon I'd make a good vampire?
- Secretly, I am damn damn damn damn scared of something. Ok maybe it's not a huge secret but I'm still scared of it. More than you guys know, sigh. No it's not animals!
- It is my brother's 21st birthday today. Hello Happy Birthday Kevin! Come back soon, there's a present waiting for you.
7."Don't let words kill you. The most important thing is that you know what you're doing. Do what makes you happy [...] And besides, I think you're great and I'm glad to have a friend like you :)"All the way from wherever he is, this is why he's one of my dearest friends.
Also because he nags me on stupid things like,
"What the hell man. Tell me the truth now, are you having an eating disorder?! Why are you losing weight?" Ahahaha, ridiculous. I will NEVER have an eating disorder, simply because eating is my passion.
8.May I announce that I think Ramly burger is the best? THE BEST!! Better than Mcd's, in my humble opinion. So much cheaper too. The sauce, the taste, the aroma, oh my gosh. Heaven on earth ooh la la.
My favourite? USJ4/1's! The stall opposite 7-11. They serve awesome burgers. Special ingredient: green apples.
And e-v-e-r-y-o-n-e eats Ramly! In just 5 minutes, I saw a young Chinese lady, middle aged Malay man and old Indian uncle buying them. Felt a surge of pride for the muhibbah-ness. Like I said, everyone eats Ramly!
Well, except for my boyfriend ugh -.- But no worries, I plan to convert him into a Ramly lover soon.
9.Starbucks' latest Mocha Praline is my new love! First sip was heaven. Am I the only person who loves that tinge of hazelnut so much?
Friends didn't think it was as 'wow' as I thought, boo. Then I delivered one to the boyfriend's doorstep in hopes of spreading some love but he didn't really fancy it either. Bah humbug.
Oh wells. This is the lovely Mocha Praline, yummm.
The cinnamon bun that Ade ordered and disliked.
Candid. I was trying to remove the lid.
Mr Paparazzi, stop la huhu.
10.
Don't mean to disgust you guys but my dried wound looks like a heart now! Friends pointed it out hahaha.
11.
In black and yellow, tucked away at a tiny little corner in The Star. Insignificant enough but still worth remembering :)

Some posts back, I said this.
"p/s:Misery aside, I've found my dream! Gorgeous and equipped with great features too! It was love at first sight, basically. I melted. Too bad, the price is just as beautiful, sigh."I was actually talking about a camera. At that time, I wanted THAT, and ONLY THAT. Features > style :) Anyway, it has finally been released in Malaysia and I saw it being displayed at the retail shop last week. Only downside is, it wasn't as pretty as I thought it would be. Kinda big actually. Ceh pictures are deceiving!
Still, the features are a-mah-zing. Now I'm torn.
13..It's funny how some people can be SO insecure about themselves that they have to resort to things like that and go to such extreme measures.
On another unrelated point, I personally think make up should be used to
enhance features and not dramatically or totally
alter/change your face and looks to the point where people won't be able to recognise you with the make up off. Phew that's a mouthy sentence! Blogging about this after a convo with my opinionated male friend. He said some wise things that made sense, haha.
14.
I reverse side parked. Successfully. Alone. One empty slot. Just for me! My second time and I managed! This is a feat as I am a very lousy driver. And at least I didn't end up in tears again like the previous time, huh? ;)
15.
I am lucky to have you in my life. We enjoy laughing at how stupid, idiotic, and ugly the other one can be but deep down, in both our eyes, we know there's nothing more perfect than what we see :)
Ily.
1.I've started studying for my finals! Not as much as I should but it's a start.
Done with QM, fortunately.
It's the easiest subject of the lot, unfortunately.
Well, I will try to refrain from going out these days. To minimise temptation, please stop asking me out, please please.
2.Bought a pair of Rubi flats. I know it's going to be really common soon (or maybe already is) but it was cute, cheap, and simple. How could I not?
Funny how I, the girl who doesn't wear shoes unless I really have to, suddenly owns two new pairs.
3.Surprised the bf with a new backpack the other night. His current one was becoming an eyesore because it looked so old and worn out, eek. I didn't plan it, I just did it after knowing he didn't have the heart to spend that much on a bag even though he liked it. It's because he is incapable of spoiling himself.
Was so hard (and stressful) to surprise him because he got all suspicious and demanded for me to hand over my purse first, just so I wouldn't have any money on me. He even checked my bag thoroughly before letting me go wth.
Hah lucky thing I'm stealthy and I managed to sneak my ATM card out :)
4.Buying a bag is not an easy task when you are trying to avoid bumping into your boyfriend and you are all alone, equipped with nothing else but your own sucky directions. I rushed up and down Pyramid, to and fro from the new wing and old wing trying to find that hidden shop and getting to a stupid functional ATM machine. Everything was so far apart from each other ok! Me getting lost 10 times didn't help either.
Sigh, everything was really going wrong for me that day T_T Not only did I feel stupid but I also felt like a born loser. Bf and my friends can't help but agree too after I told them my story. But the happiness and genuine shock on his face when I surprised him was worth it.
"How did you buy it without any money?!?" x3.
Same same but different.
5.Watched The Time Traveler's Wife a week ago and I loved it. I didn't read the book nor did I know much about the storyline so there were no expectations involved. Was pleasantly surprised with how the movie played out.
8/10 - Rachel McAdams has come a loooong way since the days of Mean Girls.
It was a sweet, poignant and touching movie about how love can surpass all boundaries. It reduced me to tears and I probably wept about 4-5 times throughout. Well, I'm a baby like that. I guess I could relate, because of all the waiting she had to do and because she is always going to be the one left waiting. It made me sad :(
CJ's point of view: Movie was a bit too slow. Jeez.
AND MOVIES @ PYRAMID ARE SO EXPENSIVE! >:(
6.The other day, I started pondering about what blogging has dwindled down to. Maybe some day, I will talk about it here. Was actually having thoughts about shutting this down because it's just not the same anymore but he convinced me not to. It's just that, where has all the honesty and opinions vanished to? 4 years ago, things were a whole lot simpler and now sometimes, it actually feels like a burden to me due to certain reasons.
Assumptions are sickening.
Just before the concert, the bf brought me to buy a pair of Converse at the very very very last minute because he took pity on my toes. I do not own any sneakers, you see.
We were scheduled to pick the girls up at 4.30 pm, but he only arrived at my house at 4 pm. That's how last minute it was, so we had to rush like MAD.
Got stuck in a jam and to make matters worse, ALL THE SHOES I LIKED DID NOT HAVE MY SIZE. Frustrating. Bloody size 4! We were shot down multiple times until finally, the last pair I simply pointed at did bear my size.
Breathed a sigh of relief.
BUT. As luck would have had it, it happened to be one of the more expensive pairs although I don't see the difference -.-
Sorry for my feet size.
We were half an hour late when we picked Ade and Chui Nee up. Poor bf didn't even have a chance to grab lunch beforehand because he woke up really late. I ended up feeding him Ayam Goreng McD while he drove.
CJ was wolfing down the entire drumstick. Pig.
Arrived at the stadium 20 minutes later and we were greeted by the throngs of people. Ugh I hate crowds. We were reluctant to line up at first and so we just lazed and took pictures.
Like little ants.
Chui Nee and Ade.
With Ade.
And again. This was before we got all sweaty and stuff :(
Wong Chui Nee.
His face cannot make it here hehe. Look at my wound!
With my girls. When we were still in the best of moods.
Take 2.
Pic credits go to her camera btw :)
This pic made me realise something. Sigh. I know what to do.
Chui Nee's friend's shirt. I find it cute.
See my gleaming white pair? I told them to help me dirty it because they looked too new haha.
With some of Chui Nee's friends. Khairi and Kamarol?
This was what we did to pass time and minimise boredom.
The bunch of us.
SIGH WE WERE STILL THIS FAR BEHIND! Bleh. Heard there were more than 10k people that night.
Obviously, queuing up ate so much of our time. The bf bought some ice-cream for us girls and the greedy Chui Nee instantly stuffed it into her mouth. Hahahaha. The result? The dry ice got stuck to her lip, youch.
It stayed plastered to her lip for a good 30 seconds which made us laugh like hell.
Poor little girl. That's Khairi laughing and asking me to take a pic.
Anyway, I was so ticked off by the lousy organising! SO MANY THINGS LA UGH. Plus, those people working for the event kept feeding us different information so we didn't know who to believe. Then the stupid 'Hitz VIP zone' pissed me off as well, bla.
After that, some idiots accidentally hit my wounded knee with their Digi noise sticks. Repeatedly, mind you. !(*!&&#!*
We were also surrounded by so damn many inconsiderate hooligans who pushed their way through and moshed like no one's business. They were doing it rather dangerously which caused some people to slip and nearly fall. Have some brains la CAN! It wasn't the right time or place to do it. Idiots. Because of their stupid moshing, a fight almost broke out right beside me too, sigh.
Ok continuing my story, those idiots did not stop doing what they did despite the numerous yells and curse words flung at them. I guess someone in the crowd got really annoyed and decided to
just pepper spray them, which caused them to cough and choke in tears.
Immediately, they started releasing a flurry of limited curse words (mostly
lanjiao and
pukimak) and eventually left the place. Crowd cheered inwardly and I think that was one of the highlights of my night. Oh, also the part where I shouted/glared at some annoying teenybopper girls HEHE. I know I sound evil, but if you were there you'd feel the exact same way.
Kamarol.
I look like Casper here. Wooo.
Look at my perky boyfriend.
Stuffyyyy.
With Chui Nee.
Happy girl with her noise sticks. One deflated after that aha.
I look like an egg because it was so freaking hot so I clipped all my fringe up and tied my hair in a bun.
:)
Oh yeah it was drizzling on and off woot. Explains why we were so wet. Rain mixed with sweat ;)
Opening acts were soooo long too and I'm not a big fan of local music. So yeah, all those aforementioned events left me feeling pretty cranky.
AAR finally came on at 9.45 pm after making us wait for ages. There was this loooong break in between where the crowd started booing and chanting 'Digi sucks', tsk.
Everytime we saw this Hotlink advertisement, the crowd groaned. Haha sickening.
Anyway, the band performed for a solid 80 minutes, I think? It was a good show (thanks to Tyson's antics) although I was lost during some of their songs since I only know their singles.
I loved The Wind Blows the most. Was so emo and calming all at once. Romantic too because I had CJ right behind me ;P
I dunno which is he.
Tyson and his headgear.
I think this was one of their ballads.
The way he talks is damn funny btw. Made Ade and I crack up.
Another guy I dunno.
So all in all? Was the concert worth it? Were they worth it? Uh. Not gonna announce my verdict, hee :D But I still hate crowds and stuffy places as much as I did before.
Ended our night with some drinks and food at Murni.
Leaving the stadium. Around 11 pm I think?
Tired and sticky, blek.
Karyn Lee likes this picture.
I think we said to do funny faces.
Cheesy grins.
Told you people I cannot wink. I can only close one eye.
Serious faces? Fail.
Murni!
p/s:
I realised I should have bought a size 3 for my shoes. Damn.
pp/s:
Sorry la b. I know how much you love them so I tried making this post as neutral as possible. And I will admit to you that AAR was good ok. Yes, Tyson can sing even in live performances :)
ppp/s:
Excuse my angry language for this post, whee.
So one fine day, I was struck with a very brilliant idea.
HEY, LET'S COOK!
This is odd because as you all know, I am nothing but a cooking noob. My expertise consist of cooking instant noodles, using the oven/microwave, and maybe preparing a half decent fried egg. That's basically it.
Nevertheless, I was in high spirits and so I recruited some friends who miraculously entertained my silly idea HEHE. I didn't think they would but oh yes they did.
I asked/told them all during BCB tutorial one morning, "Hey next Friday we cook ok! We cook at Daryl's house."
They instantly agreed. Hehehehe. And the saddest thing is, out of the 4 of us, 3 of us CAN'T COOK FOR NUTS. So that basically leaves us with just one functional person. Great :)
For the next few days, we tossed ideas around on what to cook for that significant Friday afternoon. It boiled down to either sushi or pizza. But at the very last minute, Aaron suggested DIY Beer Batter Fish & Chips.
Went along with his idea and the four of us began our adventure by dropping by Giant (this branch in PJ which was kinda ulu ahah) to get the ingredients. I also wanted to make mango smoothies (lalala using my Dessert's Bar experience ok) even though I've long forgotten how to prepare them.
In one of the aisles.
I think we were finding flour at this point.
The total cost came down to about RM10 per person. Cheap! Considering it's a full course meal. We went back to Daryl's place and lazed around first since we were all so tired wth.
His 4 dalmatians kept bugging us while we cooked. Freaking scary.
Around 4.30 pm, we started.
First, we had to wait for the fish to defrost. So in the meantime, we made some smoothies. First cup failed because the honey taste was so overwhelming while the mango wasn't sweet enough.
Switched to sugar water for the second cup and the mango smoothie turned out awesome. Admit it people! And Kuan, don't say what I know you want to say. Hahaha.
The failed first cup, tsk.
I asked her to cut the second mango and Daryl and I were damn worried at the way she used the knife -.-
Next, we fried the fish. Made our own batter and poured some Heineken in. Omg the beer smell was so pungent. Actually, Aaron did most of these. No prizes for guessing that he's the only one of us who can cook.
Because you see, Daryl's a princess in the kitchen. So are Kuan and I. HAHAHA. We did help a lil by wiping the fishes dry (wtf) and drenching the oil out.
Damn, there were A LOT of fishes! Like 18 pieces ok and we fried it two by two, sigh. Since we had some batter left, Aaron decided to try frying onion rings?
Slimy!
Wiping the water out or something like that.
The frying man.
Promoting beer.
I was just posing ahaha.
The first fish. Testing testing.
It's very rubbery. She enjoyed massaging them.
Them doing work!
Me taking pics!
We were slightly skeptical at first but omg the onion rings turned out great. I'm not even a fan of onions, mind you, and Daryl the onion hater actually converted into an onion lover. Shocking.
Made some soup (Campbell rocks) and fried a whole packet of wedges. Voila, our proper meal is done! :) Not bad for our first time ok.
Oh, did I mention, we prepared everything for a table of 9 since we made dinner for Daryl's family as well.
Yum yum. My handphone spoiler.
Wedges! Awesome tasty wedges.
There was still a mild taste of Heineken present.
Hungry liao :(
His mum made dessert of us.
Ok la. In conclusion, I know I did the least work even though it was my great idea. HEHE. But at least it was a success right!
:)
We shall do it again next time. Good and funny experience :)
Hi people, I am in the library now and you won't guess what happened to me just half an hour ago.
Damn dramatic laaa.
So I am naturally a very pale person right? But today was way worse. I turned completely white. Ade told me I looked like a ghost, thanks.
Anyway here's my story. I slept late and woke up late. My study appointment with my friends was at 2pm but I only woke up then. HAHA. Anyway, rushed to get ready and in the process, I didn't really bother to grab my lunch.
Not only that, it is also my second day of the bloody menstrual cycle and to top it off, I am a person with low blood pressure.
I'm sure you guys can predict what happened next :(
When I was in the lift, going up to the 11th floor (where the library is), I felt dizzy and started to see spots. Omg. I could foresee a blackout coming but I prayed that I'd make it out of the lift in time.
I did not T_T
Instead, I just fainted in the lift. Right there and then wtf.
Heard voices asking me if I was okay and through my blurred vision, I could vaguely make out the faces of two female lecturers. According to them, one of them was inside the lift when I fainted, while the other one was walking in.
They were my lifesavers! So grateful to them. They helped to carry me out of the lift and brought me to the 12th floor of ADP.
Then, they placed me on a bench and I was still so dizzy that I couldn't even sit up. Slept on the bench like a pathetic little girl and I could see everyone in the hallways staring at me like I was a zoo animal. Still, I was too tired to be able to do anything -.-
Continued hearing voices talking to me and the next thing I knew, 4 lecturers and a security guard were standing in front of me. They handed me a cup of warm Milo (my lifesaver lecturer made it for me) and gave me some bread (the other lifesaver lecturer did this). I don't even know them but they were really concerned and nice la. So sweeeet.
So when I sat up, I saw a crowd gathered in front of me. I WAS DAMN EMBARRASSED. But the lecturers said my health is more important. Hahaha. The lecturers who found me also said that I fainted gracefully. LOL!
I slid down against the wall and just sat. Stylish. Aha.
Ade walked into the hallways and wondered what was going on when she saw the crowd. Then she realised they were all gathered around me. Hahahaha her expression was hilarious. Daryl and Aaron came after that and everyone cannot stop telling me one thing, "You are so pale."
Oh great. So that is the story of how I fainted. The end :)
I was supposed to write a happy post today and I was in a good mood.
Thanks for totally spoiling it for me when I never meant for anything other than to catch up. You crossed the line with what you said and the words struck deep. Well, thanks for letting me know what you think of me and for causing me to cry.
You really opened my eyes.
**
EDIT.I am fine now. Finally :)
p/s:
Sometimes, people make mistakes. Just deal with it and allow them to move on from there. Forgive and forget. As long as they are sorry, shouldn't there be room for a second chance?
pp/s:
The harsh truth about life is, people only remember that one screw up and nothing else. And where the actual events are blurred, assumptions are created. It is just human nature.
ppp/s:
Simplicity is what I need and I will do what I have to in order to achieve just that.
