new flavour

back where i used to be

2010-12-14T16:16:00.005+08:00

ok, finally after a longgggg hiatus....
the dictionary in my brain is so rusty i can't really express myself like how i did before. gotta warm up first =)

why do i suddenly have the urge to blog again..
i did intend to retire from blogging forever and sometimes i wanted to come back. but i didn't.
it took me this long for me to finally decide to sign in to my blog and hit the new-post button.
i usually splash out my dissatisfaction, views on things around me and post sweet pics of myself.
then, i felt it is better to upload pics on to facebook. altogether, i stop visiting this site too. all my thoughts are kept to myself.

and there was twitter too. i find it strange that people shout something out in twitter and direct it to fb, instead of just updating one's status on fb. so i abandon twitter. to me, i thought more people would notice what i typed in fb as compared to in twitter.
coz most people are constantly logged in to fb?
it also save me the time by only going to one site = fb =)

so, why am i back to blogging again
to pass the time. until it's 5.30 pm :P
yes, i'm working now. it's a great company. i like the friendly people here. of course, who wouldn't like affable colleagues.
i've been reading story books, magazines and playing games for the pass two weeks. starting this week, i brought my french book to continue where i left off in australia XD

my close colleague also lend me her broadband for me to online. voila, here i am. =D
i couldn't play fb games though. it's too slow. it then occurs to me to blog!!
the free time i have for one more month will led me to change my blog template and design. after all, i'm not wasting any time.

what shall i write in my blog.
maybe i can upload some pictures. pics that i didn't put in fb will be here. hehe
hope to come back again soon, salut!

beach day!!!

love

2009-07-04T23:22:00.003+08:00

my friend's friend posted this note. she let me read it. wow. nicely said. i guess i want to share it with everyone =)

Love.

Can anyone tell me, what exactly is love?

What is it like? How does it feel like? Do you really feel butterflies in your tummy? Can you, get all the answers on Wikipedia? On a dictionary? Or do you need to experience it to know it?

Can you demonstrate love, by answering demands? By buying expensive gifts?

Neither life nor love requires us to give up our dignity. To me, love is supportive and nurturing, not aggressive or demanding. It is protective, not possessive.
Carol♥Jason says (11:16 PM):
People might say bad things about love, that it is painful, confusing, invasive, and sometimes violent. But if you could just sit down, and search deep into your soul, and you'll know that love expands, gives, and heals.

Can you really love someone, unconditionally, when you know that they have other intentions? Can you really love one person, but still too selfish to commit, so selfish that you are still out there somewhere straying?

We all seek love, because somehow we know love bring us joy. We walk into a relationship when we are in love, but how many of us appreciate the other enough to keep the love?

"I love you enough to let you go, as long as you're happy, I'll be happy."

We can say all we want, but do we really mean it? Love is never selfish, and yet love is never selfless. I can never love someone who doesn't love me and only me, I never will.
"Love is about letting go."

How true is that? In many situations, we let go because we have to, not that we want to. Can you stay in a relationship, if you know you're partner is constantly cheating on you? You can shower your partner with all the love you can give, but what if they don't learn to appreciate you? Can you still love them?

Before we look at someone's eyes and tell them we love them, look in the mirror and ask yourself, are you doing the right thing? Do you really love, or you just pretend you love to get something out of it?

Love is a 50/50 thing. Both party needs to work on it, I can buy you flowers everyday, but remember, I don't owe you flowers.

And before you start pointing fingers, please remember that the world doesn't revolve around you. People don't owe you things, unless you have done something so great to deserve it, or unless, you have met a fool so great, that could love you unconditionally. And with a fool like that, you can start to consider yourself as the luckiest person in the world.
As I try, and try to figure out what love is all about, I'm sinking into confusion.

..........

It’s funny how things can stir up thoughts about you. And it always happens in the strangest places. Here I am, sitting in the garden, staring at the sky, thinking of you. I tried to look for the brightest star tonight, so I could make a wish. And you know, I wish for nothing but to have you here with me.

Memories are a terrible thing, sometimes. They pop up at the worst times, like a ghost on my shoulder. I can be laughing at something on television and then I’ll think of how hard you‘d laugh. What hurts more than knowing you’re not around is that I keep thinking you’re probably somewhere watching the same thing I am but with someone else.

I kept thinking, I keep wishing, that one day, you'd be here with me. My bed is empty, except for me, but I want it filled with another body, your body. An arm draped across my shoulder, two heats mingling underneath the sheets, soft tickling on my neck. Just the comfort and feeling of safety that I have when I was with you.

.............
Everynight, I squirm in bed, looking beyond the distant sky, and I don't know why, but I just can't shake the thought of you, but oh well, not that I want to. So many nights, so many hours, nights that lasted forever, nights that tore into me and ripped out every little hope I have left. I often sit here at night, writing pathetic little notes, paragraph upon paragraph of useless words, all in vain.

Every minute I spent thinking of you, missing you, is nothing but pure torture. It's like an overflowing emptiness, to have you so far away. I need to feel you against me, I want to melt in your embrace. I crave the gentle caress of you lips on my neck, and the way you whisper in my ear, that makes me weak at the knees. I want you so much right now...

I cry, but only in silence, holding my pillow tightly, in my safe arms, from an insecure soul only wanting to let you know, just how much, I miss you.

..................
I made alot of mistakes in my life,
that I sometimes look in the mirror and hated the face I saw.
I apologize if I sounded pathetic,
but think about it,
have you ever felt this way yourself?

quiz about myself

2009-06-05T02:05:00.000+08:00

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Accident

2009-05-19T15:42:00.006+08:00

Accident pics . just outside my home. if i were to explain how it happened, nobody would even understand a word i'm saying.
but i'll still tell the story. haha
one car was coming out of the 'lorong' without slowing down, stop, look, and then go.
while this other car was driving on the straight road, maybe driving fast.
then BAM. BAM. and BAM.
the car from the small lane knock into a parked car on the pavement.
the parked car is the iswara, and its position was shifted 90 degrees.

here are the pics.

Long time ago

2009-05-19T15:24:00.002+08:00

maybe this should have been written years ago. but better late than never? sigh, late or early also wont do much help.

so i just would like everyone to know.

this uneasy feeling in me has been there for years. :(

dad wrote this letter to the star and the sun. supposed to be anonymous, but who cares. whether u're known or not, ppl still only care for themselves.

i'm happy on the outside, sad on the inside. forever. this is subjective. this is my opinion. so there will be insults and supports. whichever i receive, still dont change a thing. but what i really like to have now is some encouragement. :S

The PSD should award scholarships to SPM High Achievers based solely on excellent academic results, because these deserving candidates are those who have the best academic scores. It has been observed that these excellent students will continue to do well at a higher level, thus making their respective universities proud.

Academic results should be used as the main criteria to award students scholarships, as other methods are subjective and open to abuse.

Just like in school, every year, prizes are given to the top students who excel in their studies, and no one is saying that this system is unfair.

It must be remembered that awarding scholarships to students based on meritocracy is a fairer way.

Giving scholarships other than meritocracy will see many undeserving recipients dropping half-way through their studies and thus wasting tax-payers’ funds money and also depriving the deserving ones a place.

My daughter who obtained straight 9 1As in her 2006 SPM results failed to secure the PSD scholarship. Yet, her classmate who obtained the same results was successful due to the quota system. My daughter’s appeal to PSD and also through the MCA did not help either.

There should be enough scholarships for those who obtained straight 1As because there were less than 800 students who obtained perfect scores (1As) in 2006.

My daughter has been consistent in her studies all the way without attending any tuition. She is also good in her curriculum activities. Her participation in games at district level, national service training and despite the fact that I am also a clerical government servant was not taken into consideration.

She was then given the ‘consolation prize’ (getting a place to do matriculation instead of a scholarship to study overseas), while others have been given both the PSD scholarship and a place in matriculation.

Due to her consistency, discipline and positive attitude (good values which has been taught to her from young), she has not let the disappointment affect her. She is doing very well and has continued to achieve 4.0 CGPA in every semester.

If she had been given a chance to study overseas, competing with the top students from all over the world would bring out the best in her, thus showing her full potential.

But no thanks to the non-transparent selection by PSD, she has now lost the golden opportunity of a lifetime to study abroad.

i'm back

2009-04-27T18:29:00.005+08:00

we had our lunch at a&w, where me, carol and shona ordered sesame chicken with fries and rootbeer, while eileen ordered sausage with fries and rootbeer.
the guys ordered burger with curly fries and rootbeer.
the a&w restaurant just opened it's restaurant that day and they were giving free rootbeers.
of course, only the tiny paper cup, not the big or small bottle.

christmas carol

2008-12-03T13:52:00.003+08:00

You'd better watch out

You'd better not cry

You'd better keep cash

I'm telling you why:

Recession is coming to town.

...

It's hitting you once,

It's hitting you twice

It doesn't care if you've been careful and wise

Recession is coming to town

...
It's worthless if you've got shares

It's worthless if you've got bonds

It's safe when you've got cash in hand

So keep cash for goodness sake, HEY

...

You'd better watch out

You'd better not cry

You'd better keep cash

I'm telling you why:

Recession is coming to town!

...

Finance products are confusing

Finance products are so vague

The banks make you bear the cost of risk

So keep out for goodness sake, OH

...

You'd better watch out

You'd better not cry

You'd better keep cash

I'm telling you why:

Recession is coming to town.

it's back

u step into wou, and u'll get a great view. the library especially, overlooks the sea.
it's almost like the university is located in the middle of the ocean. i forgot to take a pic of it. sigh.

perfect moment. wind blowing, trees dancing. too bad, the sky isn't colourful. lol.

different day. yesterday, went to another place, also by the sea. northam beach cafe, and it's only 3 blocks away from wou.

something to read

2008-11-28T15:41:00.001+08:00

instead of forwarding emails, i prefer to post them on my blog.

here's something to read about and take note.

1. Take a 10-30 minutes walk every day. And while you walk, smile.

2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.

3. Sleep for 7 hours.

4. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

5. Play more games.

6. Read more books than you did in 2007.

7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.

“Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be”
George Sheehan quotes (American physician, author and running enthusiast, 1918 - 1993)

Jim Rohn quotes (American Speaker and Author. He is famous for motivational audio programs for Business and Life. )

“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.”
“Watch your thoughts, for they become words.Watch your words, for they become actions.Watch your actions, for they become habits.Watch your habits, for they become character.Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”

“Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.”

Andre Malraux quotes (French Historian, Novelist and Statesman, 1901-1976)

a lil' bit of updates

2008-11-26T16:50:00.002+08:00

i got no more pics to post in my blog.

no more dog pics, no more pics of myself,

usm pics are not with me, and my friends are not online.

i'd like to get my presentation pics, my lunch outing with friends,

and even pics taken without me knowing.

my blog without any pictures is so boring.

oh, now i remember, i didn't post lots of pictures taken during matrix.

my chinese new year dinner, also my 'malam dinamika'.

i got some pics during hari raya too.

but i guess, i'll ask friends. if majority wants to see pictures, then i'll post it.

waiting. heheh.

new day

2008-11-26T15:06:00.003+08:00

another day, another story,

a new beginning in a new chapter of my life

or just doing the same old thing.

...

dark storm clouds loomed on the horizon.

rain pelted against the windows.

the smell... of rain drops.

mmm

refreshing

the gentle breeze brushed my face.

sitting by the window, looking at the rain fall, and watching the green grass swallowing all the water, smelling the scent of flowers around me

no, i don't have the time to observe nature

but

i'm sitting here, staring at my computer screen, blogging, listening to music and thinking

however, the rain is real. it is raining now.

rain has stopped.

still, the sun is hiding behind the clouds.

don't come out. i like cloudy weather. :D

it's so cool.

i want winter, since it's christmas season now.

then i'm more into the spirit of christmas.

i like the lights at night, christmas songs playing everywhere.

no, i'm dreaming again.

it doesn't happen here. that's sad :(

it seems to me that every day is the same although it's a special day.

christmas, new year's day, chinese new year.

it's still a day.

the sun rises, the sun sets.

i wake up, i go to sleep.

i'm the one that can make it a memorable day.

celebrations and happiness

that don't come every day. and it doesn't come to everyone.

i'll have to make it happen.

i'll have to generate the happiness that's within me.

then only will i experience a different adventure every day.

for the first time, i look beyond what appears in front of me.

could this be real? could this be true?

it's right in front of me all this while.

i can't believe what i've just seen.

now i understand what it is.

for the first time.

it's so bright, it's sparkling beautifully.

like a rainbow that emerge after a heavy rain.

i'm on cloud nine. i'm floating and jumping on the clouds. smiling irresistibly.

lol, i'm crapping. i have great imagination. XD

songs i'm listening to right now is pulling me deeper into unrealistic situation.

good that i'm not facebook-ing as usual.

now i'm back to blogging again.

though i don't have much to blog.

it's all nonsense.

now it's time to play. make a snowman out of the snow. yeah, imaginary snow.

help me

2008-11-25T21:50:00.003+08:00

omg omg omg

i'm dying here. arghh.

everything's not OK!

it's KO.

sigh

i can't stand doing nothing anymore.

how can i stand 4 more years of studies.

and the holidays after each sem is over.

how how how?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

slowly fading away

...

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11

what am i counting?

i'm counting the days that have passed after my finals.

at some point, i hope time dont travel so fast. i still need my rest. i'm not ready to start a new sem.

tomorrow will be holiday no 12.

oh gosh.

...

these days, i log in to facebook, play pet society, which is a tedious game.

why did i even play it for hours. so boring!

my cooking dash and wedding dash is running away from me.

i downloaded from msn and yahoo sites.

so, the game expired! so UNFAIR!

...

i defer cleaning my room because i'm lazy to start it.

i hope i my room is tidy before my holidays are over.

...

i need a storybook to read. i need to buy one book from borders.

keep my mind off reality for a moment.

reality kills me.

fantasy soothes me.

at least i know to draw a line between reality and fantasy.

a totally different world.

i've been to both worlds.

fantasy gave me a second chance.

it wakes me up to the reality world and at once, i know my choice of actions to be taken for better results.

but reality is a slap on my face.

there's no turning back.

a wise decision is needed.

...

my personality changes many times already.

i know i changed last year. i changed this year too.

i'm very observant. i kinda changed to follow other ppl's behaviour.

it might be for the better. or to the worse. that's why i'm changing again. hehe.

friends, u tell me. XD

...

anyway, thanks friends for viewing my blog.

there are new ppl who commented on my posts and wrote in my chatbox.

actually, sorry, i don't know who u are.

but i wanna tell u, thank you so much for ur sweet comments and for visiting my blog.

as long as there are no hurtful remarks, i welcome anyone.

my friends got hurt by painful comments from anonymous commentors.

sigh

that's sad isn't it.

so ppl, i appreciate nice, sweet, appropriate comments.

pls come back to comment again.

if u're bored or in disagreement with my views written in my blog, pls don't bother commenting, just be happy to close my blog.

thanks ppl. :)

oh yeah, i'm still dying of boredom. need help here. lol. anyone?

Prince

2008-11-19T16:11:00.008+08:00

In remembrance of Prince, my cute little dog.

he's been my dog since 2005.

he went missing in june this year.

who knows, he might be poisoned or caught by the dog catcher.

a crow died immediately after eating something from a plastic bag left by a mysterious man. :S

oh well, Prince has been a lovable dog and i miss him. he greets me all the time. he 'smiles' always. yup. he's got a heart-melting smile. :D

This is Prince, in 2005

In the year 2007, as he gets older, he still looks so adorable

awww, he winks!

Prince playing with another dog and puppies.

See he's halfway up the slide.

Oh, coming down

i did...

2008-11-19T13:48:00.003+08:00

life is fun? boring? meaningless? exciting? lol. u decide.
i've wanted this holiday so badly during exams but now, i don't even know what to do everyday, every hour, every minute, every second!

studying really drains me. i don't have time for other things. only got to pick a few movie to watch. that time, i crave for more movies, online, or just stare into space.
i also have to keep track with the time, so i dont daydream and let my mind wander far-off my studies. this is one thing that i have trouble restraining myself from. i cant stop daydreaming.
i'll lose concentration, but not when i'm playing or watching tv. XD

now i'm so bored, i have nothing to blog about.
just crapping to keep my blog alive and prevent it from 'decomposing'.

it's been 5 days after my exams. i spent my time going online, watching tv, shopping, staring into space, playing games, reading the paper, eating, sleeping, ... will be doing more things until my next semester starts. but i dread starting the new sem. i just love holidays.

i'm actually staring at my computer screen right now. thinking what to type.
might as well stop here and create a new post.

i'm back!

2008-11-16T22:51:00.008+08:00

wooo-hooo. yippie. exams' over. lalalala.

and i'm back to patronise queensbay and roam and roam and roam for stuff that i want. just anything. yay.

...

hehe, times square is opening next month.

Trinie ask me to go shopping in new wing in gurney plaza. when? can't wait. haha.

...

i still wanna watch more movies. i'm so free. nothing to do. no red alert 3.

my friend already burn the disc for me, but there's an error. :'(

anyway, thanks yuan yuan :)

i want to play :'(

what can i do this holiday?

...

my to do list:

1. online

2. exercise

3. read story books

4. watch tv

5. go shopping

6. ...

what else? will write it down as the days pass, XD

Nokia 6600

2008-11-16T22:41:00.002+08:00

i like flip-over phones.

maybe because of the style, the sound, when it flips open and close. hehe.

i'm using flip-over one now.

and i still want a new one.

i spotted this nokia 6600 fold!

the one circled. the rest is slide, not to my liking although the slide one has a 3.2 megapixel camera. :(

the fold one has only 2 mp. arghh.

that's why i'm thinking twice.

should i buy it? should i not?

look how pretty it is, the fold one.

ahh, i want it :S
maybe don't want it. XD

might buy a sony ericsson. or nokia? ? ?

Accounting Night

2008-11-16T21:30:00.008+08:00

Oct 10 was my accounting night. It was a night for seniors and juniors to interact and of course, to have our dinner. haha.

after the VIPs arrived, the night start off with a presentation about... accounting. a talk by a man and a lady. to get the audience to respond to their questions, they will give a calculator to anyone who is willing to participate.

after more than an hour, it was time for dinner. food was ok, buffet style. then it started to rain. we were seated under a tent, .. luckily i didnt get wet. :S there was a leak in the middle. i took some pics, but i dont wanna post it here. not a nice sight. lol

i was a little soaked somehow, when i have to go back to the lecture theater after the dinner.
the next event was performances.
...time passed...

the last event before we can go home is lucky draw time.
sigh, i'm always unlucky in the lucky draw section. XD
so i went home empty-handed.

not too bad though. i got some pics to post in my blog.

the first presentation

in the lecture theater...

2008-10-03T15:47:00.003+08:00

it's nice here, but i know i need to trim my fringe.

so, took a pic in case...

now my hair is just plain ugly. need a few days before it grow back beautifully. haha. hopefully it will be as nice as it was before.

i wanna go to e-gate for a hair-cut. but it's expensive. rm 30 ++++

i can have a nice one for rm10 in prangin mall.

come december, i'll go for another hair cut, this time, it won't be a disaster.

hello again mousey

2008-10-03T15:27:00.003+08:00

It was here again. it came to find me on monday around 2 am.

this time i got a better pic. still blur though.

can u see the ears, the black eyes ?

cute, isn't it? lol

it's long black tail.
see how loooong it is.

there is a mosquito net covering the window. if there isn't, the mouse sure has entered my house countless times. then breed a family. then ... no! won't happen. :D

Mickey Mouse

2008-09-28T15:21:00.008+08:00

Late friday night, or early saturday morning,

i saw a mouse or a rat (not sure) outside my house window.

it was so cute, initially thought it was a bird, then (no), it's a mouse!

what was it doing? who knows. then i quickly grabbed my camera, but it was too late.

the mouse turned its back on me when i had just managed to click on the snap button.

the picture was also a blur. a blurred black tiny figure.

so i might as well draw it, to remember the cute face it had.

it was really so adorable it looks almost like a squirrel, except for its long thin tail.

the one feature which makes me say it resembles a squirrel is the eyes.

the dark eyes.

here's the picture. i drew it exactly how it looked outside the window.

to prove the resemblance to a squirrel,

i found an image of a squirrel in the same position as the mouse.

so, any similarities?

if only i got the picture of the real mouse, then we can see clearly.

pancakes

2008-09-20T00:13:00.010+08:00

omg, this pancake looks so yummy.

so i post this in my blog to look at it and dream of eating it XD

look at the colour, and also the syrup....

me and avril

2008-09-20T00:13:00.009+08:00

one is me, one is avril. sure everyone knows avril, but do everyone knows me?
avril is perfect. see the pics below and u'll know.
but i'd like to say no comparison should be done coz everyone got their own uniqueness.
ta-da...

a coincidence our pics look alike? XD

Ouch!

2008-09-19T21:29:00.002+08:00

oh, so painful. my forefinger got cut by a razor-sharp blade.

nope, i wasn't trying to fend off michael myers, jason voorhees or freddy krueger,

the ones from halloween, friday the 13th and nightmare on elm street.

my favourite all-time movies.

now there's a remake on friday the 13th.

i thought halloween was released in the states last august. and it's JUST only out in the cinemas here?

...

back to my story...

my poor little finger. :'(

the blood won't stop oooooozing.

this is the blood and my finger.

this is the blood again and my finger after i took off the plaster.

still painful!

i want it back!

2008-09-18T12:00:00.012+08:00

pizza

2008-09-13T14:38:00.005+08:00

lunch time. thought of ordering some pizza to fill up my stomach.

*ring* 1 extra large pepperoni pizza with extra cheese.

now it's time to wait for my pizza....

waited...

zzzzzz

then, i heard something started growling.

it's not some kind of animal. well, it came from somewhere...

u know what? i got the rm 32.90 pizza for free.

they failed to deliver the pizza within the stipulated 30-minute delivery time,

as what was promised.

in fact, it wasn't even delivered after 60 minutes.

then i lost track of the time.

oh well, dunno what took them so long.

the pizza still looks good though.

know which brand of pizza?

scroll down

Domino's Pizza

breakfast

2008-09-13T14:17:00.003+08:00

made some pancakes this morning. yummy :D

not sure why i wanna eat pancakes today. - some craving, maybe.

already bought milk, flour, bla bla bla.. and of course, chocolate chips!

first, poured the batter onto the pan *sssss*. just some sound effect, hehe.

then put some chips.

this is how it looks like. yum yum

it looks different when it's done

the chips melted.

but still mouth-watering.

wanted to try a different taste. this time i tried chocolate milk.

the colour is brown now , coz it's chocolate.

oops, the picture is blur.

the chocolate pancake is ready.

then only i put some chips onto it.

ta-da. chocolate-chip pancake!

just make sure the pancake doesn't roll away and into the streets.

haha, this only happens in storybooks. but who knows, anything can happen.

bon appetit!

it's all in the mind

2008-09-07T02:06:00.003+08:00

oh no, i'm confused...somewhat nervous. no, extermely nervous! hahaa. sigh, it's not funny at all. why can't i make up my mind?

i need to improve myself in so many things. i need to be better. there's some dumbness in me. i wish i can be like those ppl. i know who they are. no name mentioning. they're not celebrities. hehe. and i wanna be like them. so powerful, lol, they aren't powerful, i mean they are so confident, and that makes them seem so flawless.

need to be more bold. arrgh, i'm really angry with myself. if they can do it, i can do it too. but i need more time. need to change some personality. but i've been telling myself to do that for so many years already. if only i'm better, then i'll be nearer to my goal! i won't give up, ever. no matter how long it takes. though i'd prefer it now.

i'm unique in some ways. :D proud to have some good qualities-as in attitude, i mean. lol

my main problem now. confusion. damn, if only... my heart won't be racing so fast everytime my worst fears are thrown at me. gotta fix it. i really have to. or i'll suffer. it's torturing. need a good life.

ciao. update next time.

hmmm

2008-09-05T16:17:00.003+08:00

what to do? what to do? what to do?

everyone seems to have something to update in their blog. i'm out of stories. i'm out of ideas. i don't have the time. no time to study, no time to online, no time to watch tv, no time to eat, sleep, talk.. nah, just kidding on this one.

i HATE studying. i can't complain. i know everyone hates studying too. i mean, who LOVES it? doing degree is already so stressful, why would anyone wanna continue to masters and phd? my lecturer said she have Permanent Head Damage (PHD). :S always staying up late to do her research. had about 4 hours of sleep daily.

i have no comment. this is completely up to the individual. i know i don't wanna study. going to school is also something i hate. now i'm in uni. gosh, how long more do i have to study?
i wanna laze around all day at home, but i'll get bored. studying is torture. HELP!!!!

since i always study at the last minute, this adds EXTREME pressure. i can't study early. after the lecturer has covered a topic, i'll spend my time at home doing other things, like plop onto the couch to watch tv, go online, reading books (not accounting, economics, maths, business communication, management- that's for sure), or magazines.

i never learnt, to not procrastinate. i hate this word. it's out of my dictionary. sigh. i always told myself after every exam that i'll start studying now, not wait till exams are around the corner. but i never do it. i've always been ME, ME, ME! not a very hardworking person, but want an easy life. that's only in my dreams, i know.

holidays, i'm always looking forward to holidays. those are the only time when i can sleep long hours. if not, i'll go to class feeling sleepy, no mood and no interest in learning.

ok , enough of those moody words. now let's look on the bright side. well, i don't have anything that could cheer anyone up. i need that for myself too.

now, i just want to go shopping. each time i watch a movie and saw the actress wearing some beautiful clothes, i want to go shopping and search for any clothe similar to the one on tv. i'm crazy i think. i dunno. i need to add something to my wardrobe. i have lots of clothes, some i barely touched it after buying it, or wearing it only a few times. coz i like new things, i like to try out new stuff. the old ones are left behind and in the end it gets outdated. everytime there's a new thing, i will replace it with the current one that i have. i can't apply this to everything i have though. i'll go bankcrupt.

hehe, so i'm waiting for Trinie to finish her exams. then we can go shopping again. this time, sabrina has to go. she's promised. hehe.

but my finals are near too. november, that's just 1 and a half month away. i know i won't start studying now. oohhh, somebody help me, wake me up! even if i start now, i can't concentrate, i only can when exams are near. i dunno why. right now, i have 3 more assignments to hand in. one is finished. just need some editing. i can edit one assignment for 6 hours. :S

i can't wait for december. exams will be over. i'll have a one-month holiday. maybe i can go to kl. then i can go shopping. i like kl more than penang. haha. and i'll be idle-ing again. well, i have no worries when i do nothing. also, my brain is resting, no pressure.

even writing this much takes a few hours. but i'm also chatting with my friends, browsing in fb, and fs, and looking at other ppl's blog.

i don't update so often, but my friends just got something to update everyday. i can't follow them. i can only update once a week, once a month...

Frustrated

2008-09-05T15:14:00.004+08:00

at last i'm free, but not for long. midterm exams' over, but haven't done assignments yet. not too happy with my answers in the exam questions. *frustrated* but nothing i can do about it.

so this morning, after the last paper, i went home, and catch the US open, Andy Roddick in action. i thought i could watch Andy again playing in the semi-final, this time no book in my hand. but..

urrghh, another frustration, i came home to watch him lose his match. sad sad sad.

now i got no one to support again. have to support roger federer.

olympics is over!

2008-08-25T14:19:00.002+08:00

interesting facts, i got this from yahoo sports website. :D

In honor of the 36 gold medals won by the United States at the 2008 Summer Olympics, Fourth-Place Medal presents 36 interesting facts about the overall medal count:

1) China won the most gold medals at the Beijing Games with 51. They become the first country to crack the 50-gold mark since the Soviet Union in 1988. The most golds ever won in a single Olympics is 83 (United States, 1984).

2) It's the first time since 1936 that a country other than the United States or the Soviet Union has led the medal count.

3) China won more golds in Beijing (51) than they did total medals in Atlanta (50).

4) 'Project 119' was a Chinese initiative designed toward winning golds in the medal-rich sports of swimming, track, rowing, kayaking and sailing. Reports are already crediting Project 119 with China's dominance in the gold medal count, but Chinese athletes won just four golds in those sports. Their total was instead augmented by even better performances in Chinese-dominated events like diving, gymnastics and table tennis.

5) The United States won the same amount of golds (36) that they did in Athens, continuing a remarkable consistency that the nation has exhibited over the past half-century. American Olympic gold totals since 1952: 40, 32, 34, 36, 45, 33, 34, 83, 36, 37, 44, 38, 36 and 36. (The outlier of 83 was from the boycotted 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.)

6) The overall medal count was won by the United States for the fourth consecutive Olympics. The U.S. earned 110 medals, compared to China's 100.

7) Per capita, China won one gold medal for every 25 million people in the country. The United States' per capita rate was one gold for every 8.5 million. The tiny island nation of Jamaica, which won a staggering six golds in Beijing, had a per capita rate of one gold for every 450,000 residents. Had China won at that rate, the country would have earned 2,889 golds.

8) Greece won 16 medals as the host country in 2004. Four years later, the founders of the Olympics managed just four -- their lowest total since 1992.

9) African countries won a total of 40 medals, the highest total in history for the continent.

10) Six countries won their first ever Olympic medals: Afghanistan, Bahrain, Mauritius, Sudan, Tajikistan and Togo.

11) Great Britain won 47 medals, the most in their history and a 17-medal increase from Athens. Expect an even higher total in 2012, when the Games will be held in London for the first time in 68 years. The last time Great Britain competed in a Summer Olympics on its home turf, they earned a disappointing three golds.

12) India has 17% of the world's population. They won 0.31% of Olympic medals.

13) China: 19.8% of population, 10.4% of medals.

14) United States: 4.6% of population, 11.5% medals.

15) Jamaica: 0.041% of population, 1.15% medals.

16) Iceland was the least populous country to win an Olympic medal.

17) Pakistan was the most populous country not to win an Olympic medal (164 million residents, sixth-largest nation in the world).

18) Michael Phelps would have finished tied for 9th in the gold medal count, ahead of countries including France, Netherlands, Spain, Canada, Argentina, Switzerland, Brazil and Mexico.

19) The rest of the world won seven golds in men's swimming events. Phelps, of course, won eight.

20) The United States won the most golds (7) and most total medals in the track competition (23), despite having what was widely considered a disappointing meet

21) More proof that boxing is dead in the United States: the country earned just one medal (a bronze) in the 12 boxing events. Even after three straight disappointing boxing performances at the Summer Games, the U.S. has still won the most Olympic boxing medals (109) in history.

22) China won 8 out of 12 possible medals in table tennis and 7 of 8 possible golds in diving.

23) Great Britain won 7 of 10 golds in track cycling and won 12 medals overall. The rest of the world earned 18 medals in the sport.

24) National gold-medal sweeps: Basketball (USA), Beach Volleyball (USA), Rhythmic Gymnastics (RUS), Synchronized Swimming (RUS), Table Tennis (CHN) and Trampoline (CHN).

25) Sweden had the best medal tally (4 silver, 1 bronze) without winning a gold.

26) Armenia won 6 bronze medals, but no gold or silver ones.

27) Speaking of former Soviet states, members of the former Soviet Union won a total of 173 medals in Beijing.

28) In 1992, Cuba finished 5th in the gold medal count. In 2008, the nation finished 28th.

29) From 1980 to 2008, Jamaica won three Olympic golds. In a span of six days in Beijing, Usain Bolt won three.

30) Sweden was a fixture in the top-three of the overall medal count for the early part of the 20th century. In Beijing, the Scandinavian country finished 38th and was shut-out in golds for just the second time in history.

31) Panama and Mongolia won the first gold medals in their respective histories.

32) China won 27 gold medals in judged sports.

33) The United States won 4 gold medals in judged sports.

34) China's "real" medal tally was 24/17/14/55.

35) The "real" medal tally for the United States: 32/31/27/80.

36) In all, 958 medals were handed out to athletes from 87 countries, the most medals and medal receipients in Olympic history.

start of sem break

2008-08-18T16:38:00.006+08:00

Me, Gerardo and Angku went to Prangin Mall on saturday. First plan was to go to qb but ... nevermind. lol.
Trinie is busy, Mee Lan is busy, Sabrina doesn' t want to go... Gerardo's friends are also busy... sigh

if we went to qb, then we couldn't watch You don't mess with the zohan! qb doesn't have a .305pm movie time. hahaha, yay, i've watched it. actually i thought it was quite boring initially, but towards the end of the movie, it gets funnier. hehee.
still, i prefer to watch this than the mummy. if rachel weisz is the leading actress, i will consider. hahaha.
anyway, the cinema is really uncomfortable. i will never step foot in cathay cineplex anymore. i have to slide down low to lean my head and the screen is somewhat small. hmm, this is the first time i went to cathay. didnt know how it is inside. NOW i know! gsc is the best. even tgv is ok! i remembered, that was 3 years ago, when i watched all by myself in kl. nobody accompanied me :'(

haha, gerardo, why u need to rush home so early? should pack ur bag earlier. haha. me and angku wasted our time taking pics after that. haha. yeah, waste our time, coz we could have done something more productive. some more get scolded after that. hah, don't wanna talk about it.

this is me, as usual, always taking pictures

angku here, hahaha, wasn't me who nicknamed her. gerardo thought of that. ang choon yin. hehe. nice name :P

?? i think this pic is.... haha, i shouldn't stand exactly under..

why is it always the same style.. i'm bored of snapping pictures this way. gerardo ler, hehe, can't blame u. u helped us a lot... thx :P

angku giving a lovely smile. :)

me just trying on the hairband and quickly *snaps* .... then walk out the shop. hahaha

day end -

shopping! this time not window shopping

2008-07-20T15:56:00.006+08:00

yes, yes, yes, i bought some stuff. but i'm just too tired to post it on my blog. haha

i went out from 12 pm till 5.30 pm. that time in qb walking and walking and walking. searching for the best one. that certain cardigan i'm looking for, that jeans i've been imagining i'd wear and that tight sexy t-shirt i've wanted on my body.

i went to padini, jusco, and some shops in qb. i don't have the time to enter every shop. although the hours i was there was long. haha. coz we tried on a lot of clothes. and walked back and forth to the same shop to check back on the prices and the design.

oh yeah, there was this Young Enterprise too. saw my school. a few cgl-lians doing some business. an hour later, i saw my former form teacher. ahaha. don't think she saw me though. well, nevermind. at least i still remembered her.

this time we didn't take many pics. no time. hahaa. time is money. and we use money to buy the stuff we want or need. and we need them. lol

i bought this nail base coat from face shop. rm 5.90. trinie said it will protect my nails . hahaa
anyway, why are some ppl so damn blur when i said 'base coat' ?
the pasar malam store owner, the elianto salesgirl. OMG. they sell nail polish but don't know what a base coat is???
so i finally found it in the face shop. :)

it is transparent when i apply it on my nails. hehe

this tiny plastic is so cute. i must post it on my blog XD

i bought this nail polish remover from elianto. rm 8 something is the retail price. but 10%discount . so the price is rm 7.20.
cheaper than face shop. rm 9.90 :S

hahaha, this tight sexy shirt from jusco. but it's somewhat a see-through shirt. but i've seen ppl not feeling ashamed in wearing this kinda shirt.
my wallet was left empty as i bought this shirt. even had to use my coins to purchase it. no more notes. lol

ok, after buying all those, we go somewhere to take pics. we took quite a number but these are only the best, or best of the worst. hehee

yor, why go take me when i try on this gown. haha. why i tried with my clothes on. lazy la. and yet, this gown is too big for me. XD

if i said she's not me, would anyone believe? can't see my face also. haha

i look weird, really. i want trinie's top :D

2008-07-18T19:15:00.003+08:00

oh no, why am i so addicted to online-ing. SIGH. i can spend the whole afternoon just sitting in front of my computer. and playing facebook, checking mails, sometimes friendster, but not very often in my blog. hahaa.

my books are still so new and fresh. although bought them more than a week ago. well, at least i did some questions coz the lecturer asked to. if not, i will leave my book to sleep. even printing the lecture notes took me some time, friends all did it quickly. maybe i'm just too lazy. XD

well well, assignments are pouring in. i feel the pressure man. i can't be hardworking. :'(
i like to play everyday. hahaha. i just don't like to study. since small.

please stop the time someone!!! why is the earth revolving so quickly nowadays?
if only ....

ok, ok, first assignment - watch a cartoon. i pick lion king out of finding nemo, ice age and chicken run. coz i like the cartoon, i watch it many times before, i like the songs and i have the dvd!

i hope i won't have any problems with this assignment. just list down what leadership qualities that Simba has. haha. or Nala, or whoever is in that disney cartoon. i don't mind watching it the whole day. i can watch a movie many times if it is enjoyable and entertaining.

i have another harder assignment! damn it. it's IT. and the lecturer asked us to make a ... what is it? haha, i forgot. some budget. using microsoft excel. :'(
i have zero knowledge on that. and the lecturer wants us to perform with excellence.
and in 4 weeks, wants us to hand up that assignment with expert skills.
hehe, i believe i can do it. i know this will be hard for me. BUT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
that's what she wants us to say. so i said it.
no problem for me. we'll deliver it!

so for now, i should stop online-ing too much. *come on, start reading ur books*
ish. i have to force myself again to study. :'(

anyway, study smart, and play always. as long as i can perform, i can play however long i want. hahahaha.

Orientation week in USM

2008-07-12T16:41:00.002+08:00

29 june to 4 june 2008 - my orientation at USM. had to stay at the hostel.
well, i had stayed in a hostel before, and that was when i studied in matrix. for about 1 year. may of 2007 till april this year.

yippie! that's over. but now i stayed in a hostel again. *sigh* for 1 week.
how bored i was that entire week!!!!
no entertainment, no newspaper, what?? i'm not used to this. i've been playing for the past 3 months. hehe, online, chat, play games, muahaha.
no surprise, it's my nature - being lazy. no one wants to back me up on this. lol. I MEAN IT. i'm freaking lazy.
and yet, the most disappointing moment was that i MISSED euro 2008. THE FINAL. stupid!!!!! i didn't get to see spain win the cup :'(

i've been naughty that week. haha. first time though. skipped 2 nights of bored-to-death talks. but while i was in my room playing my friend's laptop, i was scared, thinking 'what if i get caught?' . nah, nothing happened. lucky. actually more afraid of coming face to face with a psycho. you know, rapists, kidnapper, those psychos. XD

ok ok, let me recap what happen the whole week.
saturday - registered. got hostel keys. went to room. cleaned room. unpacked. listened to briefing.
sunday - another registration. showed original certs. got appointment for medical check-up. and more talks.
monday - listened to lecturers' talking about my course. asked lots of questions.
tuesday - went to the big hall. guess what for? *sigh* sat down daydreamed the whole day.
wednesday - same thing. nothing interesting. ignored silly singing. 'i'm a cool person', haha, i got that from my friend. her quote. anyway, i don't do geeky stuff either. lol
thursday - more childish songs sang by the facilitators. sure i didn't follow. hahaa. oh yeah, talks talks talks too.
friday - course registration. and whoo-hoo. time to go back. straight to my computer after reaching home. baby, i miss u. sorry for leaving u alone. XD

let's take a look at my room. indah kembara. the hostel name. urgh. how hot i was on the first night. can't sleep at all. temperature almost like the desert. NO KIDDING!

this is the building. hehe, toilet is too disgusting. don't wanna snap a picture of it. well, maybe i exaggerated a little. toilet's ok. except, many cockroaches running around. YUCK.

TA-DA! friday moved to the new USM hostel. tekun is the name. much much better. 11 storeys. the old one has 4.

*sigh* very dusty. i hate dusts. so how is my room? paid rm 550. *gosh*
at least, the bed isn't touching the ceiling. more room for air to blow at my face.

the curtain is tooooo thin. the sunray will make me darker. oh no.

this i can show everyone. the hostel toilet. 3 steps from my door. haha.

ok, still a little revolting. nobody wants to look at the toilet bowl. even more at the bottom. haha.
of course, house's one is always better. right people?

my mood now is one minute happy, one minute sad
i'm in a fairy tale when i'm happy, in reality when i'm sad.
nah, dont wanna talk about it. -.-

predicted!

2008-06-07T01:38:00.001+08:00

yay!!!!!!!!
my heart raced by just watching tennis. and it isn't the final yet.
haha. i can't pick a favourite between nadal and djokovic. sometimes i want nadal, the next i want djokovic. :S
eventually, nadal made it into the final. no complain. well played. he deserved to win.
thank goodness federer hit his way into the final.
it's gonna be a nice final match!

women's final. hopefully dinara safina wins :)
i watched her beat maria sharapova, elena dementieva and svetlana kuznetsova.
good fighting spirit. i want that too. lol

after tennis, it's football fever again. ahhhhhhhhhhhh
EURO 2008
ah, if tennis made my heart pound so fast, football is going to give me a heart attack!
i hope there's no need for an ambulance. lol
worse of all, my favourite teams are in the group of DEATH.
why? why? why? :(
france and holland, u've gotta make it to the next round alive.
no mercy on italy and romania. lol

French Open

2008-06-03T14:15:00.001+08:00

Robby Ginepri was the first US man to reach the fourth round and the last US man to bite the dust.
Now i'm left with no one to root for.
Heartbreaking news weeks ago when Andy Roddick pulled out of the French Open.
He's not even competing for the Olympics. :(

I'm no fan of Roger Federer. Neither am I of Rafael Nadal.
High possibility that both of them are going to face each other in the final. :)
Only person to stand in their way is Novak Djokovic.
Then i'm gonna support FedEx. I want him to win that elusive French Open title.
GO GO GO!!! ;)

These are some photos of Robby. Cute ;)

Robby Ginepri of the US returns to Chilean player Fernando Gonzalez during their fourth round match at the French Open in Paris. Big-hitting Fernando Gonzalez of Chile matched his best ever Roland Garros performance by defeating Ginepri 7-6 (7/4), 6-3, 6-1.

United States' Robby Ginepri waves as he leaves the court after being defeated by Chili's Fernando Gonzalez during their fourth round match at the French Open tennis tournament in Paris on Monday June 2, 2008.

Disappointed

2008-06-02T15:11:00.002+08:00

*flash* what was that? flash from a camera? i don't see anyone holding a cam.
strange. a sudden frightening thought invade my mind.
*shudders* taking long strides now.
*gasps* there it was again. the flash. it was so silent. don't look back. keep moving.
without breaking my stride, i turned the corner and saw something that stopped me dead in my tracks. i stared at it in amazement.

lol. most of it was just me being in another world. i was not walking in a deserted alley or something. i was walking in a completely safe surrounding.

the flash was real though. someone was busy taking photographs. and i did see someone being the model. with pretty make-up, a perfect hairdo, in a beautiful dress, posing like a MODEL.
ahhh. can i be the one in front of the camera????? pls.. so what if i don't have the height.
doesn't need any height requirements. they just gonna capture a picture of u.

thought i could but but but... sigh
first, i need to buy a rm300 estee lauder voucher. in return, i'll receive a goody bag worth rm250 of estee lauder products. the remaining rm50 was for the make-up, hairdressing, and photo shoots.
err, i think that's what i heard.

seems appealing huh? oh, i forgot to mention the main thing. the organiser. the name of this event. so branded that got me attracted to it. hehe
Estee Lauder Model Search.

even the sales promoter asked me to go for it. but but ...
no use talking about it now, it's over :(

well, can i at least get what i want. i seem to be out of luck in everything.
anyway, i don't believe in luck, i don't believe in fate.
i just believe in logic. i'm not superstitious. everything has got a logic explaination.

if i want something to happen, i'll have to make it happen. i can't wait for it. nothing is gonna fall from the sky and onto my hands. that only happens in my dreams. dreams don't come true.
never happen to me yet. ppl only said it when they have fulfilled theirs. what if they don't. they'll have to keep their mouth shut. same as me.
ok, so, i'm not the only one with unfulfilled dreams. but i won't stop till i've got hold of what i want. it might be a little unrealistic. but who cares. it's not for others to judge.
as long as i believe i can make it happen. :(

Shop!!!

2008-06-02T01:13:00.001+08:00

Although i was too lazy to go out, i went out anyway. to queensbay. wanted to dine in nandos to devour their rm 10 promotion food package - peri soup, cup cake, ice lemon tea, and errr, forgot the name of the other, something like pita. oh well, after waiting in line for ages, i finally get a table. after another long wait, the waiter came to my service. i was stunned for a moment. wonder why? 'out of stock'. that were the words that came out of his mouth. i was like 'what?'

and he gave a stupid explaination that this set had just finished. hahaha, guess what i did? sigh. i just walk out and went elsewhere. feeling hungry. walking aimlessly. hehe. just kidding.

i bought this eyelash comb. umm, actually i bought this the last time i went shopping with trinie. i just didn't take a pic of it and post it in my last post. so....

ok, i bought this just now. eyelash curler. rm 9.90 from guardian with 20% discount.

but i dunno how to use it. haha. need lots of practice.

later i bought this from jusco. i wanted the other brand 'wella' worth rm20 ++

think i won't get scolded for buying wella?

so i bought this cheaper one rm5.99 with 15% discount

so, with stomach growling, i went scavenging for food. first was nandos earlier, then pizza hut. then...

oh well, i ate baskin robbins for lunch just now. jeez, all those sugar and fat. umm, am i too weight-conscious? lol

ok, this is what i ate for dinner. one kenny rogers home-made muffin. not only one, err, one and a half muffin. one muffin already made me full. then i ate another for supper.

love the box. Prince Caspian. haha, i watch the chronicles of narnia the day before. gosh, it was superb. so entertaining. as good as the first one. i'd like to watch it again. hehehe

i'm watching indiana jones this wed. ish. my bro has watched it and he's always tempting me.

i wanna watch prom night too. my fav movie genre. omg, a must-see.

2 choices

2008-05-26T17:26:00.001+08:00

ummmm, communication or accounting?
i'm having trouble deciding my future
first, i hate accounts, hate it since secondary school, but i just kept doing it, i don't enjoy it, but i can do it and score. i dunno, hmm, do i want to end up in this field? and solving the same problems every single day? sounds like a secure future, but who knows...
second, communication, the subjects are interesting, at least i think i'll enjoy reading much more than accounting.
i'm still thinking, accounting is monotonous, what about communication?

sleeping time

2008-05-26T01:04:00.003+08:00

it's that time of the day again, nope, it's not christmas, it's time to sleep. after all, i did say DAY, not YEAR. XD
having mix feelings again, sad and somewhat happy. i dunno, maybe i'm only fantasizing.
gonna sleep, sleep, sleep, doze off into a pleasant and hopefully never-ending dream.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..........

New Flavour Steak House

2008-05-26T00:36:00.001+08:00

i went to 'new flavour steak house' to have dinner. and on the menu is australian sirloin steak.
i ordered that and a glass of water. hmm, so home-cooked style.

i'm only an amateur photographer,

XD but i get a good 1-hour rest. i still feel tired when i'm typing this, and i hope i can fall asleep easily tonight. *yawn*

anyway, i'm looking forward to dinner. hehe. i'm cooking my own steak!!!
i never ever thought of buying frozen steak and cooking it at home. it was my brother who tempted me. he chatted with me late last night and told me about it.
so i thought, hey, i'm gonna cook some steak myself too. XD
yummy, oh yeah. XD

=)

2008-05-24T18:40:00.001+08:00

what have i been doing

2008-05-16T16:51:00.001+08:00

i'm on holiday. yay. until? i don't know either. and i don't care. but what have i been doing since i finished matrix? straight after that, i immediately went for a holiday. took lotsa pics. posted them on the net - facebook, friendster - not all though. the others are just meant for me. trinie taught me a lot about computers. u know, stuff that i should have already known. but i didn't bother to learn. i still am lazy. hehe. facebooking all the time. checking mails. in friendster too. and chatting chatting chatting. till late at night. how late, umm, till 4am? hmm, not healthy for me. but we just keep on chatting non-stop. well, tell me, can u resist it? sure not! ok, i did other things too. like searching for scholarships!! just unfair for me, urgh, for everyone here, if u understand what i mean. i don't have to mention it. morons. idiots. losers. what's the point complaining? they don't bother anyway, just wasting my breath, my time. everything i desire will not come to me, but everything i dislike will come into my life. why is this happening? why why why? i'm mad atm! grrrr. my anger boils down recently. i got a friend who makes me happy! hahaha. i'm in a fantasy world. but i keep waking up in reality world. if only i'll be there forever. like in a fairytale storybook. lalalalala. lol. i've been naughty. too naughty. in fact, excessively naughty. sigh. my little secret. ;P i daydream a lot these days. more than before. i love imagining. somehow i'm not creative. i wanna write a ghost story here. but see, i'm so damn lazy to start on it. my future. it's not bleak. just not what i want. ;( unfair man. others get what they want. not me. :'( ish. we'll see about that. life is boring. tv, computer, tv, computer... same thing everyday. like the movie 'groundhog day'. sure, it can be exciting if i'm given the chance to fulfil my dreams. i'm the only one who have unfulfilled dreams!!! under no circumstances should u discard ur dreams. i know, i won't. it must come true, or else...

not being ourselves, or are we?

2008-05-16T16:34:00.001+08:00

lol! i made trinie write on my wall in facebook and friendster in fluent english! but it's nothing unusual about it. just that we're so used to writing in manglish. hehe. after all, using good english improves our writing skills too. i know i'm not good enough. wanting to improve on it, but kinda lazy to work on it. well, that's me. procrastinating is my forte. shouldn't be proud of it!!!

2008-05-01T16:20:00.001+08:00

oohhhhhhhhh, i'm so freaking BORED! *yawn* tired, from watching tv and online-ing. sigh. yippee. going out with trinie this sat. gonna watch ironman!!!! then go strolling along in queensbay. but hey, who's bringing the camera? gonna decide later in msn. muahahaha. jeeez, why is my life so dull??? *slumps* might as well write a novel. what other better things can i do? *aha* umm, go update myself with more knowledge? not bad. haha. but i'm so lazy, really. instead, i'm pouring out my thoughts here. *chuckling* this is so not me. i've never blog before. on first thought, i feel really lame and old-fashioned. i'm not sure what this blogging is all about. i'm utterly clueless. ooh, what am i going to do in the days to come? gonna die of boredom, man! or fall into depression. ugh, i'm going crazy. helpppp!!!!!!!!! grrr. mad at myself. find solace in movies, shopping, eating. not so much eating though. i'm growing sideways. kekeke. seriously. tell me somebody, what to do! be my company, i need companion, haha. i have a dog, but i kind of neglected him. what? reflecting on how my dog feels, oh , so sad. they need love too *sobs* i'm a bad owner. this won't do. from now on, i'm gonna shower him with love, stroke his fur, feed him with the most delicious food on earth. what am i crapping on about? this is blogging by the way. so say what u want. i don't care. it's my blog. MINE. i think i better do something else... for now

first impression

2008-05-01T14:22:00.001+08:00

what is wrong with everybody? do they have to judge people without even trying to get to know someone's true personality? let's see. i've been judged and i don't like one bit of it. especially if someone judge me wrongly, and i mean totally WRONG! do THESE people like it if others judge them the way they judge others? i don't think so man. so stop assessing people whom you don't really know. i'll tell u why. first, it's totally unfair and degrading. second, when u start to get closer to that particular person, u will then realise how different that person really is. third, a pang of guilt surrounded u or not at all if u still go by ur first instint. fourth, when u started to like their company, u actually tell a different story to others. fifth, bla bla bla..... u should know by urself. everyone go through this process before, am i right? whatever. let me tell u my story. this always happen when i'm with strangers. of course, they never told me what's on their mind until we're like old friends. umm, people actually think i'm a nerd. *screams* can u believe it? no way man. duh, do they even know how a nerd looks like? gosh, these people are totally out of their minds. go watch tv and find out yourself. i'm not close at all to actually be compared to one. PERIOD. i know myself, and i know i'm pretty outgoing, easy going, affable, amiable, sociable. i don't have to explain myself. if u want to know me, just talk to me. anything, yup. you see, then my friends said i turn 180 degrees. i didn't freaking changed, dude. i'm all the time being myself, silly. they're the ones who didn't look beyond. a lesson to them? definitely. oh well, sometimes i have split personality. i act differently with different people. i'm kinda the 'reciprocate' person. if u get rough with me, i'll do the same with u. if u're always so helpful, the same to u. ;) what more can i say? i'm being myself. i love making new friends. don't judge appearances only, ok! i may be quiet on the outside but loud on the inside. do i make myself clear? god, i sound scary. haha. anyway, don't judge a book by its cover. it's so totally true. to be continued... have something else to do other than blogging...

About me

2008-04-30T22:31:00.004+08:00

Hi everybody! Friends, strangers, anyone! Adrienne Gim’s my name, only 19. Currently studying in USM and graduated from CGL. Hails from Penang. Am still here. LOL.

An online addict, I am. I just started blogging this year, in April to be precise. Who influenced me to start blogging? It’s Trinie. My high school friend – best friend, best online friend, best shopping buddy! Now I’m addicted to blogging as I’m addicted to facebook. Friendster not that much. But I take a break when I have exams. Gotta concentrate on my studies. :D

What’s your first impression when u first got to know me? Well, different people have different thoughts about me. But I don’t really care much about that. I am who I am. I don’t have to be what others want me to be. I have the right to live my life. This is me, being unique and different from others. That’s why I’m a totally different person. Don’t call me a freak, weirdo, geek, nerd etc just because I don’t behave like you do. If u can’t accept me, that’s your problem, not mine. I’m living happily on my own, having my own lifestyle. Whether you like it or not, that’s completely up to you. :P I’m not the perfectly Perfect Girl like other girls. Well, no one is perfect, right? Right?

I’d like to say I’m very talkative to close friends, actually to anyone. I can talk to anybody, and if we click, I’ll just bla bla bla. I like to mix around, make new friends, and fit in. People who are serious, not having a friendly look – that is, not smiling back when I’m smiling to him/her – well, these are the people I most probably will avoid talking too much to, since I don’t know if they can take a joke. I love to joke, talk nonsense. Though I’m really shy, I’ve managed to put this bad characteristic aside and build on my strong characters. I’m not emotional, somewhat nonchalant. I’m very understanding, funny, noisy, and sometimes quiet when I don’t have much to say, or with strangers. I don’t make the first move; I usually wait for others to introduce themselves first. If that person is not doing it, then I’ll have to make a move myself.

One thing i'd like to say is i'm very fussy, quite true as ppl say i'm not easily satisfied. haha. well, certain things. Am also a picky eater. lol.

Shopping is my hobby; I remembered I don’t shop much until last December. I start to like shopping and wanting more clothes, accessories, whatever’s in fashion, or anything that suits me or whatever that cross my mind. Trinie also is the one who helps me to shop, suggests and advise. I’m so glad to have her as my best friend :)

There is so much to write about myself, I guess my readers are bored by now. I might edit this section when I’m not the same person as I am right now. Haha.

Thank you for visiting my blog and supporting me.
Have a great day !
♥ Adrienne

Guess what?

2008-04-30T18:08:00.002+08:00

Whoo-hoo!!! this is my first blog, thanks to my friend who also owns a blog here. damn, this sure gonna take a long time to perfect my page. ah well, i'm a newbie here... so who can blame me?? anyway, i'm too free to do anything. might as well start a blog, see. i'm dying of boredom, really. other than facebook, friendster and emails, i will be staring into space all the time. sigh. but wait, look on the bright side... i'm blogging here! nothing ecstatic for an experience blogger, i can tell. but kinda for me. oh well, have a nice day everybody!
