KL weekend...

...was superb! Didn't hav time to blog on fri. Was busy finishing up my work b4 leaving office.
So, KL. We arrived at dawn n even in sleepy mode, i could remember d last time i was at pudu raya. Roughly abt 10 yrs ago wen i was 10. Stone age period mang!
As soon as we arrive at d hotel, we went out again to begin our shoopin weekend cos d room was not ready for us. We got a suite instead of a family room, so it was rather spacious n comfortable.
We went berjaya times sq, sungei wang, pasar budaya(cultural market, i think), petaling street, klcc n shopped shopped n shopped. D shopping was crazy la, especially since our hotel is so central to these places. In a radius of abt 1km ard d hotel, was an area dedicated to pasar malam. Der were juz too many possibilities. Most of d stalls at d pasar malam sold roughly d same things at different prices, but we made sure we get d cheapest of dem all. From cloths to clothes to accesories to bags to shoes to perfumes to watches. 2 days is juz not enuf la. We were shoppin rite to d very last hour before our departure for home. Woosh, glorious shopping!!
So.. wat did i buy? A WHOLE lot of things! Hah! I'm so satisfied w d trip, hope i'll go der again. To sight-see next time. We were going at such high speed, d sights were zooming past in a blur. I wanna go back n do d stuff i wished i had more time to do.
Now its back to normal boring work life. Felt like i've nvr been away....

Oh, n my supv is back... no more slacking. (not dat i dont slack wen he's ard...)

My room needs a major clean-up! Help!

Shut Shutt Shutter...

It felt as if i've nvr watched shutter before last night. I watched it once before, but clearly remembered dozing off a few times thruout d show. But last night was a whole new experience altogether. D speaker was really loud. U know how thriller movies tend to have dat sudden, high-pitched sound effects? Yes, imagine it on super loud speakers. Didnt hav enuf hands to cover all my ears (n eyes) at d same time. Freaky la dat show. I really felt d suspense n d shocks n d jerks. Yeah day n i screamed so loud (but still couldnt hear ourselves), only not as loud as d speakers. Vicious la. We were rather near to d front, when i turned ard, der were so many ppl holding d complimentary, make-shift fans infront of their faces. Farny man. We choose to come watch d movie, but half d time we hav our hands covering our eyes (even if we're peeking in betw d fingers). Why do we put ourselves in dis kind of unnecessary fear?
But d show was good anyhoos. Saw d Skeleton Key trailer, n i hav to say, if i were watching dat on d starlight premier closing, i'll come w my sleeping bag so i can curl up in it, so i'll feel protected. Freaky sh*t!
D crowd last night was bigger than mon. N d mascot (is dat wat its called?) last night was, yes u guessed it, a ghost. White cloak, red nails n long red hair. We got to take d free nokia pic, dis time, we had a ghost gracing our picture.
Did i mention dat d character mascot for monday was a jester who can make balloon figures? He swallowed a whole sausage of inflated balloon!!! Can someone tell me how dat works? Did he really swallow it? Is d balloon edible? Does d balloon deflate as it goes in? Tell me, I'm awed!

How do u spend ur time (2)?

Almost everytime i get into a conversation w dis guy, we will end up talkin abt DEX n he'll always end up sayin "Teruk2 pun he's ur ex". He did it again today. Seriously, i've moved on fr dat guy, y cant he juz understand dat n move right along too?! He needs to get over it. Stop relating DEX n me like dat. He is himself n i am my own person. We r not related. Get dat in ur thick head!

How do u spend ur time?

Today is wednesday. I miss my frens. Havent seen d girls since shrek's n yan's bday. I miss shaz, nice talkin to u yest. I miss kailing, she's far away but sent me a post card last week. How cute! I miss aitian n liza, its been ages n ages. I'm meeting day later, dats not too bad. I miss cat n soffy since shisha. I miss fan, hope he's alright after d revelation. N i sorta miss my wps frens. Its been 2 yrs guys! Its amazing dat all of us live in wdl n we nvr c each other. Ders anoder grp of ppl dat i'd like to meet, but i always wonder 'Y bother?' Why?
Dey nvr make an effort. Wen i'm initiatin, dey dun bother to try. But if i wait for dem to initiate, it'll nvr happen. Ish!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Went IKEA at d spur of d moment w d luvball yest, aft work. Dey dont hav my rug/blankie anymore! Hmph... but i got a throw for such a steal, so i'm not complainin. Its plain n looks boring, but d colour is a sweet, baby blue. Now i hav 3 blankies, in 3 different shades of blue!
I was thinking of changing my room colours to pink, but since dey r not sellin d pink rug anymore, n i've already bought d baby blue one, guess i'll juz change d colours fr dark blue to light blue. Mayb next yr we'll change it to pink, aiite.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Weekend break confirmed!
I promised baby dat dis weekend is gonna b 'Juz Us' weekend, but i'm goin away n i'll b breaking my promise. I feel bad for him, but dis is an opportunity dat doesnt come often. Sorry sweets, i hope u're not too mad.

Foosa....

Last night....
Went to Starlight Cinema w Mr Burhikam. I wanted to watch Madagascar... I got a little pin n Mr got d tulip to give me...Purple tulip! We picnic-ed. Mee goreng, sardine puff, milk tea, passion fruit juice, chickadees, chipsmore, rocher. Makan makan makan.
We were at d front of d crowd, no obstructions. Wen we came, a nokia girl took our photo w d N90 phone. Dey printed it n we got it. For free! D pic turned out nice, considering i was trying to smile properly w mouth full of aloe vera. Quality.
*Love, may i have dat phone???*
Wahahaha... anyways, d movie was funny n d ambience was fine. I liked d idea of being able to lie down while watchin a movie in public. Mr couldnt lie down, he's too long, hee.
Der was a big grp of girls in baju kurungs n tudungs. At first we tot dey were not locals. But later found out dat dey were d girls fr d jamiyah home. Yah, schools shd make dis an outing. Its fun!
I'm goin again on wed w day. Watching Shutter... Aiyooo

I'm so malas to do work. I'm takin my own sweet time to finish dis week's entry for d logbook, n i havn't started on lab work for d week. N d SEM ppl havnt called for a session. My sup said he'd talk to dem to give me a hand, but dey havent yet. M.A.L.A.S.

I have officially overspent for d month n its only mid month, n i'm goin holiday, n i'm not done shoppin...I'm juz glad dis month's bill hav been paid for last month. Phew!

Ok pokie, d week drags on...
Take care n be good!

Ayah, Mama & Me

Good morning!!!
How's ur weekend been? Mine's Great!

Friday evening:Shopping w d love. We went to bugis junct, aft much consideration, i got my blue handbag instead of fuschia. D love's bias towards blue, n its afterall our favourite colour. I saw dis cute rainbow pointed heels at a reasonable price n almost got it, but decided d shoe will juz b sitting in my room un-worn. Chicken rice dinner n back to shopping. I found my olive shoes!!! Yay! It's so comfy, its unbelieveable. Ok by dis time, i'm tired, n i think d love was tired too having to carry my heavy bag(i carried my shoppin bags :p, dey were light). We walked to city hall mrt station(my exercise attempt for d day) n took d train to marina for seats. Wee....

Saturday:Me day. Lazed ard at home in between doin 2 loads of laundry n 3 rounds of folding. Watched tv till d sofa had my butt print engraved into it's surface or rather, d carpet had a bald patch where i've been lying on it. Hah. But after all dat lazing, decided dat dis ass needed, at least, some form of exercise. Went into town at 745pm, alone. Purpose:to purchase my lip lacquer n meet an old fren fr pri sch(yes yes, dats my form of exercise)... Chatted n checked out d products n played with colours n i left at 940. Reached home b4 1030pm n felt happy dat i didnt waste d whole day doin nothing...

Sunday: Me & Mama day. Turned out to be Me, Mama & Ayah day! We left early in d morn for blaja which finished at noon, den mama went grocery shoppin at pasir pjg wholesale ctr. Ayah n i waited (i'm not a market person). Aft ayah fetched her fr d market, prayers, lunch, den we left for geylang. I've been bugging mama to go geylang since last june, but she haven't been free on weekends to indulge me. So der we were, a family of 3 on a sunday, shopping, at geylang. I dont hav any recollection of a time i was at geylang w BOTH my parents. I prolly hav, a long time ago wen i was still young n goes ard everywhere w my parents, but not in d near past. We shopped, mostly for me. For blouses(d parents approve, no t-shirt shopping w them). We were also supposed to shop for raya clothes(we're starting early dis yr). We agreed on purple sometime ago. Ayah bought his in august!! Only left to find mine. Mama had hers, but unsewn yet. After 3 blouses, we finally chance upon a kurung i liked. But instead of getin d purple one, i got a blue one(d purple was too dark) n mama got d same one for herself. I loike! My first, proper, BLUE kurung. Last yr, d family was supposed to wear blue but i ended up w a greenish/blue one instead. My sis was trying her hardest to make me admit its green. Anyway, dat was last year's story. So now, i finally hav a blue one!!!
So ok, we still havent found a purple one. But juz as we were leaving, something caught d parents' eyes n dey insisted dat d purple was perfect. I wasn't really into it cos d purple was not very nice n i prefered another one w a better purple of d similar variety of designs(aft some intensive scanning). But dey tot dat d first one matches ayah's baju very nicely. N dey said dat d material was good n cooling n wat nots. Ayah even thinks d design is nicer than d one i picked out cos its "ni kan panjang-panjang lawa, yg ni bulat-bulat sangat" (long-ish n not round-ish). Raar! But oh well, i still liked d one i picked, so dey couldn't disagree, or else i wont wear it. So we got it! I got mine, n since d parents liked d other one so much, mama got dat one. By dis time, i was so happy, i was beaming like a cheshire cat. Den mama insisted we left, she didnt wanna let me go to joo chiat, says dat i'll buy more n i dont even wear kurung often. Ayah was ready to indulge me n go too joo chiat, but he has no say over mama in dis. Urgh! Ok nvm.
Aft dat, we went to north bridge road for bag shoppin! Wee... I didnt buy anything. I saw a red handbag i liked, but i forsaw i wont carry it often(not w d way i dress everyday). A simple purple wallet caught my eye. It looked like my current wallet, only purple, but it was expensive for a tiny item, haha... i didnt think it was worth d splurge. Mama got a nice side bag, i like it but i wont wear it. But nice la...
Tot we were goin home by den, but more shopping. I suggested ten mile junction sheng siong instead of d same wdl one. Junk food galore! Sugar cane juice, den, finally, we were going home. It was 5 by d time we were home. A whole day of shoppin w d parents!! (D change in font size is unintentional.)

Ok so by dis time, i'm missing d love n i forgot dat my lib books hav reached their due date. So decided to go lib n meet d love for dinner. Had to go all d way to JP for dinner n library cos he had tuition at lakeside at 8(wat a spoiler). We only had time to eat n chat for awhile b4 he had to leave. We ate at delifrance, so it was rather comfy n i juz sat der finishing up my book aft he left. Den, visited d lib to return n borrow books n home again for apprentice. Tried out d new clothes, drew on dem, to prepare for dart makin n alterations. Aft a brief ring, it was Bedtime!

I had a fulfilling weekend. Did u???

Psst! Im goin away dis weekend. A holiday. Without d parents. Away fr Singapore. D parents agreed quite easily n quickly, without too much ya-da ya-das. Yay! Dats all i'm gonna say, shall not jinx it.

He didnt come gigling towards me n kiss my face(on a bad day, i get licked w his oreo infested tongue) n rub d top of his head on my stomach. He didn't even give a crack of a smile when i kissed his face. He's sick. Having breathing difficulties. Short, quick breaths. D poor boy was so lembek(weak). Didn't play, didn't run. Hope he gets well soon enuff... Muachkz!

Ok i'll pack, rub hand cream into my poor hands n nails, n juz wait to leave. Have a great weekend peeps! Be good. Tschuss!!! (25 mins to go)

He's different now

He seems perfectly happy. But deep down, he's still stuck in a rut. She's moved on, he hasn't. It breaks my heart to know he's still rooting n waiting for her. Hoping against hope that she'll decide to return to him. As his friends, we r still waiting for a right time to tell him dat she has moved on, with one of his friends. D new guy contemplated on telling it himself. But is it a good idea? What do u reckon?
He needs to find a different form of therapy. Trying to get her back will not help him to move on. What will?
I wish he could juz realise how capable he is of getting better girls to b his companion. I wish he would realise how desirable he is. I wish he would realise dat she's not gonna come back to him. I wish he would juz wake up n smell d roses instead of waking up wondering if she thought of him last night. I wish he would.
She, d new guy, him n us, r all friends. So how do we tell him without being too crushing? How do we make him see d real situation? Or shd we juz keep quiet n let him find out on his own. Its something d rest of us have to keep a secret if we decide not to tell. There's gonna b a lot of talkin behind his back n whisperings n exchanging silent looks.
He's still d same, only sadder. I want d old him back. Fully him. Not d sad version. D one who laughed often n made others laugh.

Younger: How do i spell ice cream?
Elder: W-A-L-L-S

Montag Blau

Wow d weekend was packed. Didnt get enuf sleep, despite it being a weekend. So dis morning, i was dozing off intermittently while reading notes(even work has notes!). D notes, unfortunately were as boring as school notes, therefore, didnt help in keeping me awake. Was supposed to go to lab, but was afraid i might fall asleep while handling d machine(it's happened b4 n i got away with juz grinding 2 of my fingernails!), so i didnt wanna push my luck.
Famous 5 meeting yest. We hav a new member n i cant rmbr if we've decided to change d name to Famous 6 or The 6. Hmmm... D shisha plc we went to was so cosy. U hav to take off ur footwear upon entering. D floor is carpeted n we sat on cubic cushion stools ard a low table playing scrabble n drinking root beer floats. It felt like something u do w ur family on a chill out evening. N MIB2 was on tv n der was grape shisha on d side. Simply cosy.
D last time i was at al-majlis, i decided i didnt wanna try it, despite constantly wondering wats d big deal w dis thing. So dis time, i still felt d same abt it n didnt wanna try. But oh well, peer pressure, n i succumbed. I expected to choke, like really choke, till i tear or something. But der was nothing. Nichts. Nada. It felt like i juz swallowed air. Normal.
I was quite disappointed not having choked myself crazy. Somewhere inside me juz knew dat if i were to try n i choked, den i'll be satisfied knowing dat i'm not meant to smoke. But now dat i surprised myself by not choking, its kinda like anti climax. I feel deflated *blows a raspberry*. Now i dont have a "choking near death" story to share. Zu schlecht.

Oh! I met day last fri n we caught up w each other. I'm amused by d kaya story. Kailing, i find it interesting to present someone w wat u did. Wahahaha... N i'm excited to read d book on Stuttgart! But i'll wait patiently till i get my dict back. Thanks Day!!!

Ola!

Wooooo....This is much easier than i thought!

Dienstag, September 06, 2005

Went for Muzikarama last fri evening. It was a very creative fusion of the many P.Ramlee movies into one, coherent production. And it was absolutely hilarious! The characters were well-written n d script was commendable. The singers can sing too. But their scene change n background talking could be improved. The trees were quite an imaginative touch. Like Osh said, Baik pokok!
D flu was really bad on fri, sore throat n mucus. Was fighting a majorly stuffy nose d whole weekend n woke up with a broken sound system on mon. I decided to take a sick leave n while resting throughout d morning, decided I’d better get moving n inhale some fresh air. So we went to JB. Yeah, I know, air’s not dat fresh across d causeway, but heck. It was a shopping trip dedicated to d love. It was his time to shine! Ok, tak, it was his time to shop. Usually I’ll b d 1 goin crazy shopping, but dis time its him. I totally dig all the tops u bought. D green, d purple, d orange. Not mine, I know, but I’m excited anyway… Oh den we took a taxi to Giant in search of d elusive bottle of perfume. Y only giant carries dat brand, only pure essentials would have d ans. But after goin up n down d same few isles a few times n scouring up to even d instant noodles section, no perfume was found. Ok so I settled for a different brand. Switching brands is always difficult for me. Its both emotional n psychological. N I tend to b unconvinced dat d new brand will perform as good as my old one. Yeah, but d new one smelt good enuf to make me take it.
It was an excellent day! Despite d sound system strike. Yay!!!
Oh Mr Gym Trainer, can she fit into d baby rompers???
