I say, Bring on those eyecandies!

Hello! No, I've not disappeared off the face of the blogworld, thanks to those who asked on MSN.:P I have however, been suffocating under my consequences of not finishing my holiday homework! :D But hey :) I survived my first week back at school without any.. run-ins with the teachers. :D So, at this point, all is good. :D

Temporary maid's gone back. So hello to waking up early and helping out with the chores on Saturdays and Sundays. And making up my bed every morning. Eurgh. I hate that part especially. -_-

This is going to be brief. I'm having my second bowl of cereal for breakfast. I'm so hungry T_T

Going out later! for lunch and a movie :) So exciting, have not seen them in ages. Well, technically, Ive not talked to them in ages. Haha!

Then our eyes cry and our souls sigh.

God blessed us today at school with the presence of a very special girl who is going to be missed by all of us.

Sandra came back to school today! For the very last time.

Oh Sandra, sandra, sandra. Where do I start? I've only known for for 10 months, and I've grown accustomed to having your perkyness all around :) Its really sad that you won't be joining us in the ever difficult battle of the IB and that we won't be seeing you ever again. I was really looking forward to the trip to Singapore with you, you know. All those shopping plans and whatnots. Its been great getting to know you :) You've been a wonderful friend, and we've found so much in common with each other! it was interesting. I'd never forget our weird conversations which included talking utter nonsense and our imaginations flying wild. You've been a great listener as well.

Take extreme good care of yourself okay? We love you and we are all gonna miss you! We must keep in touch alright? :)

----------------------------------
Found this somewhere. I think its from a movie. I'm not sure. But I do love the last line :) Its so.. correct.

He said, " I didn't mean to break your heart."
But, before he could finish, she replied,
"I didn't mean to fall in love either, but we all make mistakes."

Yeah, thats it from me. I'm exhausted. Overslept this morning. Overate too! Peanuts and chapatti. With hell lots of curry. Darn. I knew I shouldn't have succumbed to food after school. T_T

Cause I don't want t waste another moment,

Saying things we've never meant to say..

I'M SO EXCITED AND HAPPY! After so many email exhanged, I finally won an internet bid on a dress I'm dying to get :D SO HAPPY! hehe. Although the final price is a tad bid over my budget :( But oh well. Its a really pretty dress! And Kenken, Becky and Kalowee all agrees with me. HEHE. Although Kenken says its a little short -_- HMM. Its not, I'm short! So the dress won't look short on me. So exciting. I wonder how long will it take to arrive in Sunny Brunei! :D

Yah. Clothes makes me tingle inside.

Anyhoo, must go back to some biology/business/maths (one of these options) Most likely maths, cause I've only got one more question to go. Problem is, I did not note down the question so I shall have to wait for a fellow SL math-er to come online so I can ask for the holy question.

OH OH. Last night! Olympic's closing ceremony. I waited for Rain's performance cause I read online he was gonna do. And he did! :D In a white vest and short hair, he performed along side, Kelly Chan and Wang Lee Hom as well as some other singers that I do not know of.

RAIN'S SO CUTE LAH.
He makes my heart tingle as well! :D

It was like..

Dad: Girl, don't sleep so late ok. Come back from Temburong, tired have to get some rest.
Mom: Aiyah, you think she really want to watch the closing ceremony meh. She only wants to see Rain.

*Rain comes on*
Me: O MY GAD. RAIN! MA! PA!!! RAIN MAN. shit zzzz HE GOT SHORT HAIR! OMYGAD.
Dad: -_-
Mom: -_-

*performance over*
Me: Okay. I go sleep now. Nights.
Dad: -_-"
Mom: -_-"

HAHAHAHAHHA. I swear, my parents were like -_- wtf. hahaha but really lo. I was EXHAUSTED last night, the minute I laid my head on my pillow, I fell asleep instantaneously. :D haha and I couldn't wake up this morning. My back refused to cooperate and I had to pull myself out of bed. And my thighs are KILLING me. Its so difficult to walk up and down stairs. They hurt too much :(

Shahbandar Wednesday I'm thinking :D

Yahyah yah. Wasn't supposed to be a whole blog post this.

LOVELOVE!
Amelia.

Sunday, August 24, 2008

Could I be your memory?

"Even more, I had never meant to love him.
One thing I truly knew - knew it in the pit
of my stomach, in the center of my bones,
knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet,
knew it deep in my empty chest - was how love gave someone the power to break you.
I'd been broken beyond repair."
- Bella

"Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some."
- I'm Yours by Jason Mraz

Him: I didn't believe in love. I didn't think anyone could ever fall in love and just, be in love. But now, I know its possible.
Her: Well, how do you know?
Him: I don't know, I am.

Nothings ever going to be the same again.

Lovelove,

Cause remember when..?

Because yes, I'm angry.

And I'm hurt, Very hurt.

And Envious!

And, disappointed.

And, very very nostalgic.

First day back in school was alright, exceeded my expectations.

I'm still angry.

Lovelove,

You could be anywhere you wanted,

REPLIES!;
DREW; hey! Why you sound so angry. Haha and I've linked you! :) I'm fine though, very fine.
ALEX ; yeah, I know right. I wish the cycle wasn't a cycle.
ANGEL ; WHAT! HOW can you not like poa. Its the fun-nest subject okay. And yes, Angel the awesome ant took the picture of me, diana and nachos. How am I like TFP? I wouldn't mind. haha
RYL ; YAH! Actually, HP supposed to be out end of the year then they decided to move it to July 2009. Wtf man :(

Tuesday, August 19, 2008

Suppressed by all my childish fears.

LOOK WHAT I FOUND!:

Diana and I and the most awesome Nachos eva :D
And guess who decided to skype with me :D

HELLO REBECCA (L)
Its been a long since I've heard/seen you laugh like that.
(omygad. I sound so lesbo-ish.)
HAHA


YOU KNOW WHAT.

I know this will sound absolutely absurd. But I wish I was doing my O's right now. I wish, I was getting ready for my Mocks for the O level!!!!!

It was so easy back then. Not studying and still managed to get above average for all the subjects. Like, exam tomorrow, tonight reading through whatever notes I have and still managed more than a credit for the paper. T_T

You guys doing your mocks, be thankful you're having fun with your o'level. APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. I'm serious zzzz. Compared to what I have to do now, O's seemed like a breeze. :(

WHY can't we turn back time!!!!!!!!!!

:(

Lovelove,
Amelia.

p/s Now when people ask me whats my favourite food. I know mine is either:

a) Penang Wanton Mee
b) Penang Muah Chee
c) Fried Sotong with Breadcrumb.

and possibly Peanut butter. but that's not really a food. Its much more of a accompaniment. Right? hmm.

p/p/s ALSO had the most awesomenest peanut um, pancake thingy at Yayasan Hua Ho? You know that circular thingy, with stuff in between? Yeah. IT WAS CRISPY AROUND THE EDGES. *mmmmmmmmmm

p/p/p/s I love peanuts. ^_^

And how you suffered for your sanity.

REPLIES!;
ELENA ; haha. No lah, its not that much of a difference really! :P I'll send you something online :D haha
JIM ; yeah, you read correct. I am excited about breakfast :D
NAT ; well, you thought wrong :P
READER ; um, okay, thanks? I really don't know if that's sarcasm. But if its not, thank you.
ALEX ; -_-"
ERIC ; Hi smelly! :) I am stuffing myself silly with food, so you really have no reason to feel fat around me :( I make everyone else look skinny. HAHA Which reminds me, Physics is a pain in the ass that is why I did not take it up after form 5 :D Its basically difficult maths with words. A lot of words :(

MORNING! :) Internet seems fast this morning. Usually, the internet never works in the morning, for me at least.

ANYWAY, in about an hour, I'd be out having one of the best breakfast eva (okay, exaggerating here :P) Okay, best breakfast of the month. Cause I've been having really plain breakfasts-es. To be honest, I just downed down two peanut butter&kaya sandwiches. But that doesn't matter now, cause I'm going to have lots and lots of roti! I have not had Roti (Prata/Canai that is. not plain bread lah) for about 2 years!!!!! Cause its one of my restricted food (as well as peanut butter&kaya and rice and fried sotong and sugar and white bread and mayonnaise and 1378628762479 other food items). BUT I SHAN'T CARE THIS MORNING. Bring on the ROTI TELUR WITH BAWANG (translated: Prata with egg and onions) with CURRY! :D mmm.. Shit man. I can't wait :D :D hehehehe.

SPEAKING OF fried sotongs. MY MOM is gonna make me a whole plate of fried sotongs (squid) for dinner! I especially love fried sotong in bread crumbs. OH SO YUMMY! Gimme me a whole plate and I'd finish it up for you in a second (or 5 seconds. hahaha) I absolutely love it.

MOVING ON. Last night, after weeks of laying it down cause it doesn't look so exciting.. I finally watch The Prestige, recommended by my brother like weeks ago. Only reason I bothered to watch it last night was due to Christian Bale. But after watching, the damn movie made me quite speechless. Its an amazing story with a very interesting turnout! Like, you wouldn't have thought it would come out like that. Cause halfway through the movie, I was like guessing what was gonna happen. And, unless I'm the lauyah guesser, all my guesses turned out wrong! Just.. just.. Watch The Prestige okay? :) Its a good movie. Very unexpected.

Yes, that's about it from me this morning.

SCHOOL REOPENS IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS! OH MY GAD.

Monday, August 18, 2008

Because things aren't always so simple.

REPLIES!;
TIM ; seriously? I did not type the whole thing. HAHA. I just copied and pasted the entire text after reading. :P
ELENA ; HI :)
TING ; HI! :) Yeah, that HK series. Its finished now :( haha
CHLOE ; retard :P and I did mention Shah. What is this :( you don't read. HAHA
DIANA ; why? who is this steve guy? and I know, even we don't get ourselves.
ALEX ; okie, its ok. haha
BECKY ; yes we should make a hitlist all the time :D
QYDAH ; BORED you were during WALL.E??? *wink*x10000. HAHHAA
ANGEL ; hi ant. have you downloaded yet. lousy haha
LALALA ; okay, thank you. Although I can't tell if you're mocking me or you're giving my blog a compliment. Either way, thanks. Its more plain than pretty imo.

Countdown to school re-opening: 2 lousy days! How superduper is that?
Countdown to 2 nights (and a hell lots of mosquito bites) in Temburong: 5 days! I need to start getting my things ready.

Anyway, yesterday, went out with a bunch of people: Kalowee, F-f-fauzzay, Adib, Qidah & Isa, Adam for Dimsum and Wall.E. Wall.e is SO CUTE. A little slow and boring at times but all in all super duper cute loh. Very heartwarming :) will make you go 'awww~' Haha. :D I know it made Kalowee do that 38973985734 times. :P

Ate plentiful as well! :D A variety of Dim Sums, 2 peanut butter crepe (all by myself) and Nasi lemak! And tons of yoghurt. Haha. I don't think I'd be touching peanut butter for a while. Two crepes filled with peanut butter and condensed milk is... enough for a while. It'll keep me off my awful habit of eating peanut butter out of the jar. -_-

I AM I AM I AM going to do some stuff today :D like, try and um, start some things that should have been started a while a go.

OH. I'm rereading Harry Potter & the half blood prince (6th book) since the movie is coming out end of this year. Yes yes yes? :D And *shamefaced* I have not touched my Harry Potter books in a while. I feel kinda bad. So, I'm reading them again. So when the movie comes out, I would know how different the movie will be from the books. (Plus, books are still always better.) I love Rupert Grint though! And Ron Weasley is one of my favourite characters in the book ^_^ hehehe.

I think I might enlarge the text size on my blog a little. I have a feeling I'm straining my eyes a little by reading. Its so tiny right :( And my eyes are so damn bad now I have to wear glasses everywhere :0 (but I'm so lazy! to use glasses / contacts. Eurgh)

Yeah yeah yeah. I'll have pictures later. I've been looking extra horrible in the recent pictures. I have a feeling its my hair. :( hahahaha oh well.

OH OH. DIDCHU KNOW UGLIFY IS A WORD?! Or so, I think it is. Cause my MSN has spell check right and when I typed Uglify, its not underlined in red! But here on blogger, its underlined in red :S What is this. Horrible. Make me confused.

I have SO MANY dvds I need to buy!! But I will not have time to watch. I will make a list of movies I need to watch so if I lose my list, i shall not fret. ^_^ *smart thinking. wtf*

Yah. OH I had OK comments about my hair! :D Adam says I look like a completely different person from a far and when he first saw me, he gawked at my hair and then touched it like it was some kind of alien. WTF. HAHA. Adib (as well as Angel and my Piano teacher) thinks I am sporting a Cleopatra look. BUT HEY, I LIKE MY HAIR! :D its so swishy and smooth! :D hahahaha and LIGHT! and time taken to dry my hair: less than an hour. TIme taken to dry my old hair: 4 - 5 hours. So, yay to um. shorter hair-drying time :D hahahaha I agree its a little TOO flat. but time will come and the flat-ness will de-flat it self. :)

Which reminds me of a conversation I had with my Ant last night.

(the Ant hate maxi dresses)
ME: I WILL WEAR ONE TO YOUR BIRTHDAY.
ANT: Well, you are now DE-INVITED.

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH. omygad. Oh ant :)

Speaking of ANTS, not that it has anything to do with this. Today, I finally ate to satisfy my craving for curry powder, with Singapore Fried Meehoon :D and a whole bowl of ABC with extra corn :D HEHE. ALSO 3 peanut butter and kaya bread. OH SO GOOD. Tomorrow, Roti Telur with Bawang and more nasi lemak for breakfast. I'm thinking a whole bunch of sushi for lunch. Then Wednesday starts mission starvation (With breakfast and small dinner. HAHA) so exciting. I CANNOT WAIT FOR BREAKFAST TOMORROW :D SO EXCITING.

Yes yes, i will get rid of these wordy posts. SOON SOON SOOOOOOON pictureees :D I know how boring it is to only see block and block and blocks of text. Thousand and 2 apologies :)

For they will never know.

No, before you go ,"wtf. so much text T_T" ..
You don't have to read this. This is for my own reference. Because I admire how some people are capable of writing so beautifully :)
There are two types of girls in this world: those who are the perfect, timid matriarchs born only for marriage - the bread-and-butter kind of girls who carry family photos of distant cousins in their wallet and will do everything in their power to avoid an argument - the girls who sit crisscross applesauce on their twin-sized bed and daydream about wedding dresses and first kisses and plastic pink dollhouse homes. There are these small-town girls with their quiet smiles and television dreams, and then there are those who are wild.

While the small-town girls are daydreaming about Tupperware parties and joining the PTA, these concrete goddesses are taking off their heels and jumping carelessly into public fountains. They are dancing wildly to live music, whether it be pulsing trance or cafe jazz, and wearing hand-strung popcorn necklaces as crowns. These swinging cafe-au-lait kind of girls belt out karaoke standards without missing a beat and scribble little crumbs of encouragement on bathroom walls - they slip in and our of our world, cart-wheeling and backflipping through life, and the tragedy is that sometimes we only notice their presence when they're gone. Sometimes they fall into our laps as best friends and curious strangers. Sometimes we are those wild girls.

We are the ones who will always sing, even when nobody's listening. We are the ones who will never hesitate to ride loop-de-loop roller coasters, no matter how daunting they may seem. We are the ones who will never be afraid to speak our minds, and we will do whatever it takes to change the world. Others may never understand us - the simple girls will stare scornfully, scratching away our encouraging graffiti with a manicured nail, but these shortcomings never seems to faze us - until it comes to the matter of love. When beautiful boys are involved, boys who thrill us and chill us and yet could never begin to comprehend us, the whole world begins to slow.

These boys with their expensive watches and stunning punctuality, they are afraid. They see who we are and what we have, all of our madness wrapped up neatly in lace and tulle, and they realize that they could never tame us. They know that we, with our ever-changing nail polish, would never rear their perfect Oxford child - that we, with our dreams of baking cupcakes for notorious authors, could never settle to be part of a conventional family. In us they see instability and calamity - they fear the fact that we will never submit to their American dream. And so they run. Even those with love in their hearts still run, tumbling towards unwed sweethearts in Lily Pulitzer sweaters. And these silly boys settle down with sleepy girls that we will never understand. And we are left standing barefoot in public fountains. Or star-struck on that karaoke stage. Or staring blankly at a bathroom stall with pen in hand. We realize that love has eluded us, tricked us, shattered us with its fickle sense of humor, but maybe we are the ones who have been doing the eluding. Are we wrong in our slam-dancing ways? Have we become too much to handle? Somewhere along the highway of life, have we made a wrong turn and somehow forgotten to change lanes and become simple?

When did love begin to dictate who we are and not the other way around? No matter how lovely or sweet those dashing boys are, sometimes we just have to accept that we are too wild for them - too complicated and untamed. At the end of the day we have to ask ourselves, is it better to be loved or free?

We may be unconventional darlings, or gothic prom queens, or mysterious concrete conquistadors, but we know what we have, and we will always embrace it, no matter the heartache it may bring us. Because we are wild. We are free. And we are not afraid.
- By Penelope Bat.

For they will never know.

Please, trust me. I most definitely can be cheerful. I can be amiable. Agreeable. Affable. And that's only the As. Just don't ask me to be nice. Nice has nothing to do with me.

AMELIA!

even if you don't need me now.

I really cannot be bothered with anything yet. Sure, I really should be panicking at the mo' but I'm not. I'm calm and I still find time to watch DVDs or read books or pig out of the countless junk food set in order in front of my eyes. I swear, there's gotta be something wrong with me. :(

I wonder how everyone else is coping with the stress that school's set to reopen in um, 3 days? I know I'm taking it very lightly, something I would be regretting later when school finally reopens.
I mean, I'm pretty sure, like 101% sure I'm gonna be asking my self, "why the fek didchu let this all hang till school reopens?" and then I'll go ahead and slap myself silly, regretting every single moment.

Because, really, what have I accomplished this holidays? This one and a half month of holidays? I've managed to gain weight, a broken heart (woah, cliche) and have been through a hell-lot of movies :D haha. Also been able to do some Biology and read my English books and finishing a couple of CAS hours. But thats about it. Really, not all that I'm supposed to be finished doing.

I swear I need to stop downloading viruses onto my computer through limewire. Note to self: Check file size before downloading -_- Is there any free anti-virus software I could use to extract virus files off my macbook? Help, Alex? haha.

Also to that KEYWORDDIR/KD guy who keeps on tagging on everyones blog to visit your damn site, can you please stop. It is annoying the hell out of me. I don't care about your site and I don't care about the number of people who come by my site. I've got enough readers (mostly friends :) ) So, I don't need more. So frustrating eh. Eurgh.

Yeah, I'm blogging aimlessly because the car is in the waits for the mechanic cause there's this weird sound when the engine is running and my mom is freaked out about it. -_- Not that I mind, being at home with the trusty internet is always better than being out eating all the time. I really need to stop, or I won't be able to fit into anything for school then. Its so scary how my weight has skyrocketed. Not very recognizable now. Haha! T_T Its like, finally, double-chins, pudgy cheeks are all making a comeback. All breaking loose. Freaking crap.

Also, I am in need of a picture blog. So picture-less this blog has become. I will take pictures tomorrow :D hopefully?? :S

OH, I have to mention my absolute favourite book! Anytime, anywhere whenever I'm feeling sad, down, depressed.. I read this book and it never fails to make me laugh :D And I've read it probably more than 30/40 times. I've read it so many times, the pages are yellow and the cover page is all creased. Its: Diary Of A Mad Bride by Laura Wolf. :) Its the book to read. I know, its supposed to be like a book for Brides-to-be. But it doesn't matter! haha. Its a hilarious read and sweet and its so niceeeee!! Heck, my blog address "Bytes-Infinitum" was taken from the book :D haha. Its now with Angel, I hope she enjoys the book as much as I do. :D hehe I know Becky agrees with me that :D

Oh my, craving for peanut butter and raisins. This is bad. I think I shall take my mind off it while playing Elite Beat Agents of the DS. Haha :D I'm gotten so engrossed in that damned game. Sometimes I spent a few hours playing it, and gad-knows-how many times I try to finished each songs. (Since I've got really slow response.) Meh.

If you managed to read everything, I think you must have been extremely bored because all I've typed down is utter nonsense that nobody would want to read I think. Haha.

You took your life, as lovers often do.

Don McLean - Vincent (Starry, starry nights)
Yes, the song is also featured in the HK series :) Its such a sad song.

Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...

Lovelove,
Amelia.

Had a conversation with my mother just now. It amazes me how she can see through the facade I'm putting up. I guess its true when they say, Mothers always know best..

For everything that we had.

If you follow the wrong star,
my love will get you home..
If you wander off too far,
My love will get you home.

If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone..
get back on your feet and think of me,
my love will get you home.

Boy, my love will get you home.


Yes, thats the main song for Xiong Choi Sam and Alfred in the 9.30pm TVB series on WahLaiToi. The shows brilliant. Tonights the last episode. and Its complicated!! But the last 15 minutes of last nights episode turned me into an emotional whale :( I was crying! Its so heartbreaking!!! Tonights, gonna be sad as well. Eurgh.

Its a really good series y'know. The characters make me and my mom so angry! like, we bitch about the characters. haha! :P But yeah, its a good series. Has succeeded in making me cry a couple of times.

REPLIES!!;
QIDAH ; welcome back! :) Jalan soon soon. Hehee
ANGEL ; I'm glad you don't think I look like a whore on ebay. Which reminds me to remind you don't forget to check that out!! HAHA
JIM ; yeap :D I can't wait to see you all!!
ERIC ; aww, thank you smelly. Of course you're just saying that. hehe *blush* We will go out soon okay. After your damned exams and after I start school. Haha
ALEX ; I agree :)
DIANA ; I agree. Hahaha. See yous wednesday!

Anyhoo, trip out with the Angel and the Diana was awesome! :D Sure they didn't have our brownies, but the pancakes were just as awesome :D and our pastas and rice and popcorn chicken. ALL SO YUMMY! :D Ate enough for 4 people yaw. haha! And then, mario kart-ing (in which I beat angel's ass 3 times :D and diana's once because she only join us for one game) and the drum game thingy and then DDR! It was my first time DDR-ing. It was quite the experience. Haha. We should be doing that again right? Actually, this is the first time I've been out with friends and all we did were stay in the arcade laughing, talking as loud as we could and playing games! heck. we even tried out those fighting games. Angel was invincible till the last round. HAHA.

No pictures :( Angel has plenty though. I don't think she's gonna put em up that quick. Knowing angel ;) HAHA Watched a movie before lunch. It was okay. There was only (including us) 5 people in the cinema. We were the noisiest. HEHE.

QUOTE OF THE DAY.

Angel: "Don't take away my sauce!"

HAHAHAHAHAHAAH oh my gad. I bet the waiter thought we were retards :P

All in all, today was an awesome day. Did some impulse shopping as well. So that's always a plus. right? :( HAHAHA. Angel hates me for impulse shopping. And diana baked brownies for us. Very chocolatey. :D Chocolate goodness really :) hehe.

Tomorrow, probably doing some mother-daughter bonding time over a movie :D hehe. And sunday! outing with a whole bunch of people. That's something to look forward too. Hehe.
Monday... was thinking of doing some community service.. but I'm not sure bout that. Tuesday.. nothing yet. and Wednesday, School :( Damn. Thursday, School.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday: Temburong. Hooray T_T HAHA.

YAH. thats it. :)

ELENA ; yeap! :D not on youtube though, i bought the DVDs.

For the 13th,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNY BABY! :)
You know we lovvvve you!
Have a greeeeat 17th!!

Today.

Just came back from Shahbandar! After a much much muchh needed 'work-out' haha! :) Went with Kalowee, Shim, A-man and Jacob. Well, technically, I was walking with Shim and Kalowee. The other two was too fast for us :( But we finished the whole set anyway in like, an hour and 50 minutes :D which is quite a feat cause, I have not been to Shahbandar in 2/3 weeks! :D Haha

Lots of story-telling, so time passed quite quickly. Thank goodness. Kalowee didn't do too well, but she managed to finish the whole course, and therefore I am proud of her :D

Been eating like. gluttons, so meh. Unhealthy living is my profession. As well as procrastination. But oh well. Going out with the Angel and the Diana. Going for movies, dancing and food! Not forgetting hours and hours of laughing :D hehe. I'm so excited! Have not seen Angel in like... 3 weeks.

What I would do for Muah Chee from Penang. I'm absolutely craving for it. So bad. :(

OH. GOT a temporary maid! So I don't have to wake up at 6 now to mop and clean the house! Thank goodness. But she's only staying for two weeks :( So, I might have to like, go back to the usual timetable after she leaves cause the agency is still failing in locating a maid for us. Woe is me. I do not like housework. I'm okay with showering the dogs, but I am frustrated at moping and changing my own bed-sheets! Or, folding my blankets up in the morning. So.. annoying :(

Yeah, will end now.

People people, listen to Bryan Adams - When you're gone. I know its an old song. But its such a nice song :) haha

MANDA ; its like, got adrenaline rush through you and then u tell the lady to cut even shorter. haha.

Duffy - Delayed Devotion. This song is gooood :D haha, very catchy. I like Duffy's voice! Its so.. nice. and she's so adorable! Like a chubbier version of Sienna Miller.

Had like a bunch of peanut-butter sandwiches for breakfast along with my usual bowl of cereal. I'm so full! And a glass of milk! I am thinking of yogurt now. But.. I'm so full.

Been spending TONS of time watching HongKong TVB series. Right now watching : War of the In-Laws 2. I absolutely dislike Myolie Wu. Bosco's alright. Adorable at times. haha. But Myolie! Her voice is so.. high pitched. and Her face! oh my gad. Oh well. Its a pretty OK series. Managed to make me l-o-l. :P I'm improving on my cantonese that, while watching ;)

I was so pleased yesterday :P Scott thought me how to send animated emoticons using the cell! I was so freaking sakai. And my brother brought me to the arcade at Seri to uh.. unwind. Haha! He wasted so much money trying to get me one of the keychains from those machines where you pop in a token and try to get an item? Yeah. There's this reeeeeally cute pillow guy phone charm! Haha. After gadknows how many tokens, he gave up :(

As I was expecting it, my daddy doesn't like my hair. Haha! he claims it makes me look like a siao cha boh. (Crazy lady) Actually, my dad says that everytime I have a haircut. -_- Oh well.

Someone's birthday's tomorrow! :)

Will blog later, I assume.

In remembrance..

Of my long faithful curly hair :)

This is a very very vain post :D You shall not read further if my face pisses you off. HEHE

Yah, I'm aware some pictures my hair looks like, wet. CAUSE it was wet then. Just got out of the shower :P







So as I was saying.. was in the saloon for 4 hours today :) I love having people do my hair. At one point, I had 4 ladies doing my hair for me. :D haha! So after a tiresome (not for me, my butt.) 4 hours, and about 3/4 of my hair gone...


Yeap :D It was really nerve wrecking cause I've never had short hair in my entire life.Once, I cut my hair like short-sleeve length, my dad wasn't very happy with it so I've had like longish hair all my life :)

But, this time. This is new. Its the shortest ever and I'm thinking I might want to try even shorter again :D

I think I look a little odd. (okay, very very odd) but at least I tried it. Now I won't have to be all like, "what if......" if you get what I mean. Plus hair grows. right. :P

REPLIES!;
ANGEL ; you're welcome :D haha and what smilies?!
TIM ; Agreed! :)
DENISE ; ah, smart :D haha Yeah, will put proper pictures up a.s.a.p :)
CHLOE ; um... i have to tell you something. for sure you will *&@!#(* me one.

ALEX ; hi

I'm willing and ready.

Oh mygad. I sibeh annoyed now. Did a nice LONG wordy post just now and I accidentally clicked 'x' and the whole browser closed down on me. Woe is so me.

*Shameless advertising- No, I'm not getting paid for this.

Oh before I type anything else, every one should totally think of clicking ME. Because this site is totally awesome because it is half owned by one of the most brilliant and awesome-nest girl in history: Angel/fcukgel/ant/butterfly-wannabe. Plus, she's got tons of pictures and she's got a wonderful tagline : You like me to stare, I like your underwear. Whats cooler than people who likes your underwear? (okay, sounds wrong) But, give the site a shoutout. :) haha Plus she has the word slut in her URL. HAHA! Leave a comment and make the butterfly-wannabe/loser happy :D

*end of Shameless advertising.

REPLIES!;
G ; This feels very gg-ish now. Well, thats my opinion, and we're all entitled to our own opinions right? :) So if you think I'm only saying that cause I'm bitter.. then okay. :)
JOHN ; well, I'm definitely not the person to go to for "advice" on relationships and stuff. Look how mine turned out. Also, thanks.. but no thanks, I'd rather keep the details for those close to heart :)
CHUA ; of course I remember you! We were in the same class for 2 years okay. I'm not that forgetful YET. :P and yes, I will.. thanks :)
WEEIFOONG ; it was such a rush decision! didn't even know I was gonna go back. hehe
CHLOE ; see. I knew I should have just stayed as a lesbian. HAHA! :P
B ; yeah, will do :) and I know right, life goes on also. Nothing I can do. Cept, moving on. Thanks..
CHRISTINE ; thanks :) I hope they do.
ANON2 ; thanks :)
ADAM ; Well, now you can tag freely without having to see Rain's "beastly" (how is it beastly? Its perfect and simply wonderful :P). And the thing about you not being to read more than 2 paragraphs, I salute you for your honesty. Haha! and I have no comment :P
JIM/ANON/TIM; you're right, I've been blogging to distract myself. Haha! :P
NAT ; isn't it good? :P
NECROLIC ; I know 888 is luck lah. I'm chinese!!!! Aha
SHIM ; yeah. I suppose most of my problems are kinda over. See you thursday :)
QIDAH ; yeah man. We have to like talk.. talk talk. :P

Actually, I've tons of people to thank. Family, friends.. :) Those who sent me funny texts to make me laugh (they succeeded by the way.) and the phonecalls! and MSN messages and automessages (eric! haha) Facebook messages.. Thank you. They definitely cheered me up.

I'm okay really :) Just, I'm experiencing tons of time spent on reminiscing (really, what good is that?!) and feeling really, xim tong (heartbroken- so to speak). But overall, I'm surprisingly alright. I think its cause I saw it coming and it was inevitable (woah, like this words my favourite all of a sudden. Inevitable this and that.) After all, people come and go.. people always leave. Like you, only.. you went and never really came back.. But life's like that right, never perfect. I think its impossible for perfection. In every aspect. Unfortunately.. Oh well. Life moves on. :)

Speaking of moving on, I'm rather excited about tomorrow. Decided to do something drastic :) a la TGC. Sure, she's not the first one but she's kinda like my inspiration. Its really risky and scary, but its a risk I'm willing to take. After all, they've always said to live in the moment right? and right now, (and since yesterday actually) the moment's telling me to this. and I'm going to. I've got all my appointments set in order and yeah. Come tomorrow, different person I will be :) (maybe.)

Afterall, it is going to be a new academic year right? Gotta have some changes made.. and I'm already done with phase 1. (That was bullshit, saying things like that sounds cool. Like, mission interfaced (wtf) ) yes. Speaking of which, the spankin' new academic year is racing in 1 week and 2 days. I'm freaking out. Time is going by SO quick.

Speaking of quick, I've got dates set out next up for meet-ups (Sound like I'm going on blind dates.) but no, decided to make the most of my last week.. and yeah :) going out with people who are 101% guaranteed to make me laugh, can't wait! :) Kalowee's postponed our discussion date (for the Business IA- No less) to Thursday. Actually, lots of things are happening on thursday. I think, its not gonna be possible. But yes, we're horrible horrible procrastinators. We should totally think of giving that job up. Damn :P

Also, first week back in school. First weekend after school reopens, we, the biology students are heading out to the great outdoors @ temburong. So, I will be needing to pick up some necessities like footwear for example. Kalowee isn't very happy about it. She apparently hates the great outdoors. I'm okay. As long as I've got enough mosquito repellent to spray on, 3 layers or 4 even for 3 days :)

I hate mosquitoes. I attract them by the mass. Its like, I take a nice quiet innocent walk around the garden, appreciating nature at its best, looking at the fruits and flowers.. 10 minutes later, I'm back in the house and I'm covered with mosquito bites. Everywhere. My toes, fingers, ELBOWS(most annoying), legs, hands, NECK, face (especially my cheeks, so they look like huge pimples that itch). Its like I have an invisible sign in mosquito language to bite me. ALL. THE. TIME. So annoying.

Also, people who have me on my MSN, would notice that I've been overplaying Usher feat Beyonce & Lil' Wayne - Love in this club, part II. Yes! I LOVELOVELOVE the song! Especially Lil'wayne's part, his voice is so sexxy. Damn. Haha. I've been listening to it for the past 4 days, repetitively everywhere, on my iPod, computer, car.. and I'm still not sick of it. (nor can I sing along to it yet :( I want to. and I'm going to. I wanna be able to sing along with Lil'wayne when he sings. HAHA)

note to self: Ask daddy to get the pool cleaners over T_T
Woah, this song fits everything. Its so freaky.

Across Five Aprils - A Year From Now

Complete and total adoration,
My gift to you, my heart was yours.

In ten weeks you shaped it,
In one night you murdered it.

Torn from my chest and laid at your feet,
That first step you took was the worst.

Since then you've walked a thousand miles in silence and short remark.

I still have these memories,
But we'll never see what we could have been.

Remember when we talked about where we'd be a year from now?
Remember when you held my hand like you'd never let it go?
Remember, cause that's all you can do.
We'll never make another memory,
We'll never make another memory.

I wish I'd have died in your arms the last time we were together,
So I wouldn't have to wake without you today.

This time I thought things were real.
You said they were, what happened?

You were a priority, was I an option?

I let you see a side of me that I don't share with anyone.

Promises are just words unless they are fulfilled.

you knew from the beginning all I had to offer you was my heart,
I'm sorry that wasn't enough.

So, we'll go our own ways,
And hopefully you'll remember the things I've told you,
Hopefully you'll understand that everything I said was in sincerity.

A broken heart is not what I wanted from this,
But I guess I've learned from it.
But aren't you supposed to learn from your mistakes?
I don't consider this a mistake,..

I just wish the story didn't end this way,
Cause I'm still in love with the person who helped me write it.

Remember when you held my hand like you'd never let it go?
Remember when we talked about where we'd be a year from now?

Love,
Amelia.

[pause]
Elizabeth:I didn't say goodbye. I didn't say anything. I just walked away.

Just because, the people in the crowd is watching us.

But we don't give a damn to what they say.

Well, technically, I'm not giving a damn to what you guys are saying, or telling me to do. No, not in a bad way. I appreciate all those advice given to me, and I really have you guys to thanks for helping me through those really stupid, yet-depressing times. And I apologize cause its been happening so much lately.. Like Chloe says, yes, it has been a hell of a holiday. And, I don't mean that in a good-exciting way even. And I'm sorry for not listening and doing what I'm supposed to be doing. Call me chicken-hearted. I lack in the courage department. So yes. I'll just have to tahan with whats going to happen.

Why do people blog? Half of the content that we want to blog always have to be screened through our mind before we post. So that we don't leak out things that we don't want the public to know. Especially when things aren't going as plan. I know I do. I would want to post everything, everything that I've been going through this month, and last. But, I think about the people who might stumble onto this site, especially people I don't like. Or people who finds happiness in my sadness (?) and I stop and blog about other things. I mean, probably, the main reason for blogging is to get peoples opinions right? and to hear different light from all sorts of sources. Well, thats my perspective of blogging. But, I suppose some things are better left unknown right? (contradictory, me?! Yes. haha)

Contary to what you readers believe, or contary to what I want you guys to believe. (that my life is wonderful, i am having no problem. blahblahblah) No, I'm not having a wonderful life right now. I wish I was, that way everyone would be spared from my emo-ness. But, reality always kicks in (Qidah's blog address! haha). Everythings really really really (I really need to emphasis on this word) screwed up. And, I don't know where to begin to fix it. Hell, I don't even think its fix-able. But, because I'm not gonna bother following people's advice.. I suppose I'd just have to bear the consequences.

And what is this, my horoscopes tell me I'm in for a wonderful month for august. Pfft.

I love breakfast. A bowl of Cereal topped with lots and lots of raisins(till you can't see the cereal anymore), and filled to the brim with milk. And a dash of honey! Always hits the spot. And a cup of yogurt afterwards.. Mmmm..

Oh, Olympics start today. and 08/08/08. Supposed to be some sort of auspicious day right? It seems like 283786483764 people are getting married today. Cause its all 8's which basically mean luck luck luck in Cantonese. I could use some luck in my life right now.

Actually, its stupid right. So what if you get married on the 8th of August 2008? I mean, with the rate of divorces moving right now, half of them are probably gonna get a divorce in a like 10 years, or less even. Pfft. Whats the deal about proper dates to get married/have a baby/die? I really, do not see the point in choosing the right date.

Killing me softly with his song.

I've been meaning to blog about this in ages. (read: Weeks.) But I have not been able to.

So, here's a cover for Entertainment weekly with Edward Cullen and Bella Swan on the cover. Supposedly them...
.... uh. WHAT?

First off, that dude cannot be Edward Cullen. I mean, HOW CAN EDWARD BE POTRAYED LIKE THAT. So... eww. Sure, he's supposed to be a vampire and blah blah blah, thats why he's so pale.. blah blah blah. But that's just hideous man. HIDEOUS! Blashpemy. :( Also, why is his chest so hairy? I don't like guys with hairy chest. EDWARD CULLEN CANNOT HAVE HAIRY CHEST :( And I don't like his shirt.

And, Bella!! Why does she look like a 40+ woman?? (actually, very much resemblance to Catherine Zeta Jones) Its JUST SO WEIRD LAH! T_T

Edward Cullen's supposed to be sex-god yummy hotness to the maximum dude. And suddenly, he looks like this. What lies. :( Of course I'm sure this is only a bad picture and when the movie comes out in December, I'm sure Edward isn't going to look like that. I'm sure. I hope?!!!!

So yes. Also, Stephanie Meyer's latest sequel to her Twilight Saga is out now! Breaking Dawn. Actually on the 4th of August. But I've yet to get mine. Hmm.. Soon soon...

Killing me softly with his song.

Oh yes, Have not talked about this Love of my life in ageeeees.
Actually, I've not been the fangirl I'm supposed to be *hangs head in shame*
But here's a couple of pictures :) just for old times sake. :D


ahh.... sweet sweeeeeet perfection.


He's coming out with a movie called "Ninja Assassin" (by Warner Bros) and its supposed to be out next year (I think) and, he's supposedly getting a new album as well. And!! He's singing at Olympic's ending ceremony with Wang Lee Hom. Daym. Gotta love this boy :D haha OH and he's got a samsung phone, with his autograph engraved on the back of the phone. Retailing at only 200US$ I WANT!! T_T I doubt I'd be able to use it in Brunei though. And its got a really lousy camera since its sole purpose is as a music phone.

Ahhhh!!

NAT ; Hi nathaniel! :)
FAUZAY ; yeap! the scientist. Cause its a wonderful song with brilliant lyrics.

ADAM ; will listen to uh.. strawberry swing soon enough :P
ERIC ; fat stuffs here :D haha
BECKY ; of course you miss me :) who else would call you and talk complete nonsense for a couple of hours.
RYL ; am updating now :)
ABBY ; she's alright! Surprisingly. Her voice's not badd.

Thousand and one apologies for not have updates for like a week, I know some people *cough* Chloe *cough* check my blog regularly for updates and then gets disappointed when there's nothing new up ;) HAHA.

*this is going to be a long one :) Just gonna jot everything down for my own remembrance, you don't have to read really. Quite pointless cause you won't know whose who. hehe*


Anyway, I was away cause 29th July till 1st August, I was in Penang for my grand-uncle's funeral. Cause of his pass-away, liver cancer. It was a really unfortunate event cause he was first given 6 months to live. Goes for an operation, gets infected and suddenly within 2 weeks of notification, he suddenly only had 10 days to live. He passed away at 2.00AM on 29th.

It was really sudden. So, my mom found out at like, 10 in the morning. And suddenly by 1pm we were in the car on the way to Miri for a 4pm flight to KL where we will be sitting on a connecting flight to Penang. Reach Penang at like 9pm -ish.

So, we only had like an hour to pack. My mom was freaking her ass off. Due to the rush, she forgot half of her cosmetics/skin care range. And so, we spent an hour+ in the KL airport, domestic terminal shopping for eye cream, sun block, foundation and concealer. Not that I was complaining :) Got myself a juicy tube.

Reach Penang and went over to the funeral place. It was depressing. My mom was crying and everyone was crying. and well, I wasn't very close to the uncle, so I couldn't bring myself to cry much. It was sad though.

The next couple of days were spent, eating, shopping, mourning, and the whole funeral ceremony all together. Slept over at Aunty Lina's place for two nights. First night was awesome cause ALL of my mom's aunties and cousins (ladies) from all over malaysia slept over at the same place. So for a night, 11 grown women and 1 teenager (me) and 1 super duper cute puppy slept in the same apartment. It was so fun! There are only 3 rooms mind you. So in one room, all the older aunties were in there (coincidentally, all three were sisters :P) and in another, were the ones who didn't want the air-conditioner to be switched on while they sleep. and the final room (master bedroom) were me, my mom, aunty Shirley and aunty Janet and aunty Lina. :) It was so fun! Slept at like 3, talking and laughing, listening to stories. It was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity seeing 3 generations of women all sitting down together in a living room, talking about everything! I mean, we had to go and come all in 3 cars! haha. It was awesome.

Its rather sad once you think about it, cause.. we seldom go back to Malaysia. I mean, before this trip back, I have not been in Malaysia for 3-4 years! Like Scott said (a cousin), " You only come back when there are funerals -_-" Which unfortunately, is rather true. I really only do go back to the hometown when a funeral happens.

But, its these funerals that bring everyone together. For example, my mom met up with cousins she's not seen for the past 10/20 years! It was all so emotional. My mom was so happy! To be able to sit down and talk with all her relatives, family.. I was happy as well :) at least I got to see all my mom's cousins/family :) It was good.

Food was as per usual, awesome. I mean, its Penang! Come on. Who are you kidding. Everyday of my stay, I had 4 bowls of their absolutely delicious Wantan Mee. I kid you not. 4 bowls. One for breakfast, one for lunch, one for dinner and one for supper. Yes, supper :) For all three nights, I ate at like 11pm, 12pm.. -_- And, in between I had all sorts of snacks, Muah Chee (oh my gad. This is orgasmic. Its the bomb okay. !!! If I could tapao-ed it back, i would have tapao-ed like 200 boxes T_T) , apom (both kinds, the chinese one with bananas and corn and the indian one with egg), aunty annie's pretzels! (cinnamon sugar. Oh so yummy) and like random random other things! :) My mom went absolutely crazy on the last day and tapao-ed 4 boxes of fried kway teow, 10 packets of chee cheong fun (not like HK's or the ones you find here. In Penang, they eat their Chee Cheong Fun with chilli and prawn paste and sesame seeds. Its quite an acquired taste. Like Asam Laksa! If you're not used to it, you won't like it. I have mine without Chilli :) but my mom doesn't like it without chilli), 8 packets of otak-otak (fish parcels) and some chinese pancakes for me (peanut and sugar filling. OH MY GAD) and some other stuff which I can't remember -_- I absolutely adore Penang's Hawker Scene. Nobody can beat that man. Its the best! Crowded little food centres filled with wonderful scrumptious unhealthy food :D haha

So yes, I packed on a little weight in Penang. its like, I let everything loose. I ate everything, finished everything.. :) it was good.

Aunty Lina, the aunty I stayed two nights with. (one night was spent in a hotel) has a super duper really oh-my-gad cute 8 year old Shih Tzu called Zen Zen. She is SO ADORABLE!!! Aunty Lina brought her everywhere! Even to the funeral place (not on the real day though) and to all the hawker centres. Here's some pictures :)

Do excuse my really tiny eyes. Lack of sleep for 3 nights straight, not the best thing :P

ZenZen weights a heft 8kilos! Isn't she just adorable?!


My mom fell inlove :P
I love this picture!






The only way she sleeps with all her paws out. :P



sleepy face!





This is her mountain of toys.
Heck! I think she's got more soft toys than me.
And this isn't all of them. She has more on the other side of the room.


unfortunately, Pikachu lost his eyes and mouth and nose..
And she's realllly really smart! Like, she understands. And, she's like a baby!! and everyday, my aunty will tie different hairstyle's for her. haha! Just tell her, you wanna make her look "pretty-pretty" and she'd stay down for you to do her hair. Ahh. *loveeee*

Shopping was rather.. productive as well. Got a couple of tee-shirts, and pants :) As well as new collars for Melody and Daisy. Wanted to get a cheongsam. But it was so expensive, better not. Things are gettting more and more pricey. There were a couple of other shirts, which I wanted to get.. but they were so.. expensive! I couldn't bring myself to ask my mom to buy them for me. (yes, what the hell is wrong with me right, since when did I practice being so money-saving suddenly. Yes, I am also surprised with myself. and the weird thing is, I do not regret not buying those items! =0) On the way back to brunei (well, Miri to be exact) my mom got me Anna Sui's Dolly Girl cause I've been wanting it for a while now :) so really, shopping on this trip was productive! :)

Also, I have not been back to penang for like 4 years, and now, Penang's so pretty! So many new buildings and malls.

OH. One of the afternoons, we didn't sit at the funeral place, cause it was really humid and there really wasn't much point in sitting there. Before shopping, my mom and I tried out the fish spa! Y'know, the one where you lower your feet into water filled with hungry-for-dead-skin fishes? Yeah. That one :) RM44 for two. It was quite the experience. So ticklish! and after a while you just feel like little electric shocks running through you. First 5 minutes, my mom and I were sitting down giggling like idiots cause it was so ticklish. hehe.



On the verge of being gobbled up..

ATTACK!!!!
I apologize for the lack of pictures, I didn't make much use of my phone cause I wasn't using my SE K810i, I was using my Motorola V3 and you all know how much that phone camera sucks. I only took out my SE for some pictures. I ultimately forgot to snap pictures with Scott! Damn, I didn't even say proper goodbyes because I didn't know that I wasn't gonna meet up with him after that. -_- Scott was the only person my age at the funeral who I was close with. And he's really pissy that I come back to Malaysia only for funerals. And he seems to think brunei's some kind of Big kampung. Haha! He was here in 2003? for the forbissea. and yeah. Every other cousin whom I'm rather close with didn't come! They all had school! Only Scott could make it (and Ross, his brother. But he was sick so we didn't talk much) cause he lives in Penang. -_- Oh well. Some other time. *makes mental note to go back to Malaysia more often. hehe*

Oh my goodness. I Like, miss Penang now. Everyone. I feel like, I've somewhat bonded much more with my mom! :) Which is a good thing really. God knows, my mom needed time off since like, forever. Now, when she tells me stories of her childhood, I now know who she's talking about :) So it makes things more funnier/fun to listen to. Hehe

Mommy Dearest.
AND one awesome thing in Penang, everybody speaks Hokkien! My hokkiens like improved slightly! I mean, people actually understand what I'm trying to get across. *beams with pride* And its so cool. Everyone, whether you're chinese or indian or malay.. speaks hokkien. Salesman/woman/girl/boy, hawker woman/man, EVERYONE LAH! haha. Its so cool :P

RIP UNCLE CHENG.
19XX - 2008.
(He's about 70+, Less than 75 years old at the time he passes away..)
May you rest in peace, at least you aren't suffering anymore.
( it was really sad listening to the way he passed away. He was a fighter, I heard :) and he kept on fighting even though the doctor was certain he was gonna pass away on a Monday. But he fought, but succumbed to his death on Tuesday..)

-----x------ End of the Penang entry.

So like, in my previous post I said, I wouldn't be blogging much cause I've been thinking about life, collecting my emotions and stuff right? Well, I've been in a pretty rough state. Problems keep on arising. And hopefully, they've all past.. I'm not sure yet honestly. But yes, I'm back :) I'll stop being all emo, will try to anyway.

So, I came back on Friday, late. I was so freaking tired! Spend Saturday cleaning up the house with my mom. Since it was only my brother and my daddy in the house for like 4 days. Not the best -_- But they did they're part. They didn't let the dirty dishes collect themselves! Haha. My mom was actually pretty scared that the whole house would be a complete disaster. :P

Daisy and Melody reportedly didn't want to eat/refused dinner when we weren't in. Daisy was definitely looking much skinner. So yeah. They had a good nights dinner and more :P haha!

Made Banana jam on sunday but being "healthy" I cut out sugar completely, which left the jam being pretty sour. So, it wasn't that good. But oh well :P Now I know, I would need sugar for jam.

Went out on Monday with Kalowee for some catch up session. Watched Journey to the center of the earth/universe? (I'm not sure) And it was an alright movie. So very very very very very predictable. After which we had lunch @ Cheezbox. Both of us had curry meals. Dessert was Brownies with Ice-cream. Oh my gad. those brownies were perfection. Warm brownies melted the vanilla ice-cream and whipped cream. and In the mouth, you could feel the warmth of the brownies, mixed with the coldness of the ice-cream. So very ying and yang ish. it was good :)


Also, bought a whole bunch on DVDs. And to date, I've watched.. My Blueberry nights, Baby Mama, Blades of Glory and Shallow Hal. To watch: Shakespeare in Love, Cassanova, Paranoid Park, Drillbit Taylor and I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry. Baby Mama was reallly really good. Made me laugh out loud. Plus, I absolutely love Tina Fey! She's SO adorable.


I am also going to stop procrastinating soon enough. School reopens in like 2 weeks!( Thanks for the heads up Kong.) And I'm not done with ANYTHING. I'm so screwed. Gah.

Also, reaaaaallly need to make a trip down to Shahbandar soon for some work-out/sweating session. I'm So freaking unhealthy. I'm finishing plain bread by the loafs every day! Like, minimum 8 pieces of bread every single day! I love bread. Damn.

Sho was missing the whole week as well, cause he was in Malaysia as well for some Tennis thingy :) He's back now. Sick, but at least he's back.

Mmm. this entry's a little long. I'm actually typing this out first cause the internet's really shitty at the moment and is not loading any pages for me at all. MSN's screwed up as well. Half of my messages can't be sent out. I'm so annoyed!

and, If you managed to read every single word in this entry, I salute you. :) and Thanks :)

I shoud be updating regularly again. I've missed blogging :) Oh, and the new layout! Something plain and simple. Exactly what I'm craving for.
