HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY NIS!!!

The best part about Saturday's surprise is probably the anticipation, the giggling and attempts to slide low in our chairs and pretend we weren't there, the warm heat from the candles almost burning our hands as we prayed Raziz would rush down, the look on Nis's face when she saw us, the look on the people around us as Nis crouched in embarassment and refused to stand up, the shriek she gave when she saw the 18 PRATAS we bought for her, and the helicopters and jets and boatchase and FIREWORKS.

-smiles broadly- Fun kan.

Don't ever do that to me in public.

dire straits

Nuwai's in Spore! She's so married. I hope we can get a chance to go to her wedding, in Singapore.

Anyways, school's almost over for me like ohmygod. I only have 2 assignments left to hand up and exams and then SIP and then, wow. Hello world. I don't want to be here. Takut sey. And I just smsed Bubs about Harry Potter 7 again and I'm just HORRIFIED. I mean, I guessed but I didn't want it to be true. Maybe it's not true. JK Rowling wouldn't! She just wouldn't!!!

Okay no spoilers.

I watched "High School Musical" yesterday with Tina, and was just blown away by all the fluffy candy floss bunnies!!! It's just so SWEEEETTT and SUGAARRYYY and you know me, I LOVE sweet things so I could stand it, but Tina. She just lost her head at one point and started screaming,

"STUPID!! STUUPIIDDD!!! -let loose a scream of rage- URGH! YUCKS!! -more angry shrieks and growls- "

So yes, if you were walking past our house yesterday and heard all the screaming, we were just watching High School Musical.

And during commercials, I would get up and sing songs from Grease, and do a poor imitation of Olivia Newton John. Heh. It's really fun. I'm proud to say, at the end of High Sch Musical, I got up to dance along to that Wildcat song.

Me: -singing along and jumping up and down- Come on Tina!! Get up!! Dance!!! I like this song sey! I so don't feel 19 wheeeeee!!!!

Tina: -completely flat tone- Can you see the frown on my face?

It's so fun to annoy her. And I can out-shriek her.

I love this song.

I could hurt someone like me,
Out of spite or jealousy.
I dont steal and I dont lie,
But I can feel and I can cry.
A fact I'll bet you never knew.
But to cry in front of you,
That's the worse thing I could do.

book seven is OVER

I'M DONE WITH BOOK SEVEN LIKE ZOMG!!!

I don't know. I felt more crushed while reading Book 5 & 6. Hmmmm. No spoilers here okay. NOT ON MY TAGBOARD EVEN. Hush PEOPLE.
I do know that you can't read the book in public, cos I laughed outloud to myself too much, and yelled at the characters so, better do it in the comfort of your room or house.

Here's a poem I came across and it just made me feel, peaceful.

Death is nothing at all,
I have only slipped away
into the next room.

I am I,
and you are you;
whatever we were to each other,
that, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name,
speak to me in the easy way
which you always used,
put no difference in your tone,
wear no forced air
of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we shared together.
Let my name ever be
the household word that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect,
without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all
that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was.
There is unbroken continuity.

Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?

I am waiting for you,
for an interval,
somewhere very near,
just around the corner.

All is well.

-Death Is Nothing At All by Henry Scott Holland

I know everybody's going crazy over The Simpsons, or maybe even Black Sheep. But I WANT to watch,

Ish, it's out already! Cepatnyer. Anyways, it stars Marion Cotillard. Don't know who? Remember Sophie Kowalsky? Cap ou pas cap? I want to WATCH.

Do not mention ANYTHING about Harry Potter to me or I will mount your head on my wall. I swear, I freaking hate spoilers. I HATE hints. I HATE reviews, and the back of book.DVD covers. I HATE summaries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And yes, I don't even want to know the chapter titles goddamn you, PAHAM TAK?! I don't want to hear how DEVASTATING it was. Shuddup and let me finish! Kau paham aku TAKDE TIME nak RUSH THROUGH, even if I had wanted to?

Cows tiba-tiba je angst sak. I'm just sick of having to plug my ears and run off the scene. Of course the solution is to finish the book but TAKDE TIME PAHAM. Sundal malam betul.

Oh. My. God. Yes three years in poly and I have NEVER done an executive summary before. NEVER. It was NEVER my job and why? Because people KNOW I SUCK at compiling. So easy? SO EASY?! No it is not. Maybe if you're used to it and you don't SUCK at it as much as I do. Yes it's been an hour and a half, and I only have two paragraphs. In that time, I have managed to lose the ArtsCentral channel on my TV too.

And I ate a cookie. The only thing I can smile about.

Oh you know what's sweet? That the things due tmr at noon, and I can't bear to look at the project but I have to, that I' missing more than HALF of the crucial part B, that I can't do my content page properly cos I need to print out the thing first and that I don't own a printer, that I'm sleepy as hell, that it's 1 am and I'm about to get snappy and that I HATE THIS THING and oh,

i still have only 2 useless paragraphs. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH.

mourning morning

Why do Muslim kids think it's okay for girls and guys to hug? To salam each other? It's so merepek! You can get stuffed down a well for that somewhere in the rural parts of the world! It's just so disappointing and frightening that they do not see what's wrong in that act. That "Eh, we're all friends here! Let's be open minded!" mentality.

I honestly believe that religion is a non-factor these days, but yet people constantly use religion as a shield or sword, when it's to their own benefit. I've said this before, how people so easily go clubbing and smoking and drinking and think nothing of it cos it's become a lifestyle. It's so normal. And it's scary that I've become less and less shocked at the things I hear, because it's just so common. So common it might become something that's readily accepted. But until then, I will RESIST.

So if I, decide to waiver my,
chance to be one of, the hive.
Will I, choose water over wine
and hold my own and drive?

deathly hallows -no spoilers don't worry

Now that I have the last Harry Potter book in my hands, I think I'll disconnect myself from the world. I can't stand it if I got a spoiler, somehow, somewhere. Like when Bubs called just now and said that her dad said Harry died. My heart stopped and my whole body went hot cold hot cold. It's just speculation of course but I can't! Like just now, while I was waiting for my book, the woman in front of me got hers first and she immediately FLIPPED TO THE LAST PAGE. I'm like BLOODY HELL! -plugged my ears with my fingers in case she starts reading out loud- Stop it sey.

I thought I was going to rush through this book and finish it in one day cos I have a ton of projects & presentations due and I'm busy busy busy BUT, come on. This is THE LAST BOOK. This is the end. There is no more. So I'm going to prolong this experience for as long as I can. And that means reading one line at a time.

I'm sorry Bah.

Bubs was asking me, like, how the hell are we suppose to start the book??? And I was in the bus, just holding it and dreaming when JK Rowling came on TVMobile and read the first paragraph out loud. And I'm like, ah fuck it now I have to continue where she left off. So I've officially started. -does the cha cha-

Yana says that I should read in the MRT and then gasps at different points of time and go, "No he didn't!" and "Omg Harry no!!". HAHA. Nyet.

Okay bye.

is that alright with you?

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

The music video is creepy. But the song is perfect for a time like this. A time of hunger and endless waiting in the library and fake surveys.

Somebody buy me his album, "9", please. I wanted "O" too, but is that asking too much? And John Mayer's album, & Jason Mraz's and...I'll think of more.

newton's red shiny apple

-discussing geniuses with my grpmates-

Hey! Who was the guy who discovered gravity??

Me: John Mayer.

-sings-

Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down

And recently, we were holed up in a small project room, brainstorming quietly when noisy laughter and screaming coming from the other room made me look up and growl,

"Obviously Year 1s! They don't know how to do project issit!! Make so much noise, they will definitely fail!!"

And my grpmates added in their own opinions and we ended up with a slasher/thriller scenario with the words "You will fail!" written in glow-in-the-dark paint on the walls and suddenly Sneha pipes up and goes,
"I KNOW WHAT YOU GOT LAST SEM(ESTER)!!"

Which made us crack up for a long time. But seriously, every week this week we meet up to do project. I regret wasting all those weeks before. Now I'm kind of going to panic but not really there yet except this afternoon when they changed this and that and all I can think is, "Noo...nooo...my GPA...."

Cows stop it sey. I prefer Year One really, when I didn't even know what a GPA was. Basket.

sunshine daisies butter mellow

Oh looking at Friendster, I just remembered my dream. Again.

It was Hari Raya and all the Milahtants were out, jalan-ing raya together and we took Tiger Airways over plantations and all that and we ended up on this big bed, out in the open and we were taking pictures.

(There was this little boy with me and I remember knowing he was sooo cute and I was carrying him, then Fas took him from me and I don't know. It was weird.)

So, I baring-baring on the katil with them uh, cos nak amik gambar. Then I realized that I was left out of the group cos I was on the edge of the bed, and they were huddled together and cows, they all wear YELLOW LAH. The exact same shade of yellow. Might even be the same outfit even. Then I paused in my posing and was like,

"Eh asal korang semua pakai yellow tak bilang aku!!"

Then Izzah! emerged from that huge mass of urgh, strong yellow and said,

"Aku lah yang sms dorang semua tadi pagi."

And I'm like, "Abih tak sms aku sey!" And I walked off in a huff. And took a plane home.

Then at home, I was checking2 my phone to see if anyone would sms me, asking me to come back but NO SEY. Nobody cared! Then I got more angry and after a while, Izzah came home and fell asleep on the bed, but not before telling me I should rejoin them cos they're not wearing yellow anymore.

Jeez. But yes I went back. Baaaaasssket.

lassie go home

I want to say that I finally understand how you feel. All those people out there who are afraid of cats, dogs or any other big, furry, supposedly lovable, animals. Those who jump up when cats nak manja2 with you guys and you're all like, "AAAHHH HEELPP MEEE!!!"

I feel you yo.

I went over to my grpmate's place this afternoon to prepare our hotdogs for our assignment and he had a dog. I forgot the breed but it's those Lassie-like types. And the dog is actually afraid of people but he kept wanting to sniff at us. I'm not afraid of dogs, I swear, but I just DON'T WANT their WET NOSES or THEIR DROOL to touch me. Cos cannot and yeah, sure, can do the whole um, what's that process called? Cleansing yourself with tanah and all.

But leceh kan!

So there I was, dancing around the dog, climbing up onto the chair at one point. I swear, panic at the disco giler beb. I was grabbing stuff and people to block his way but he kept coming! Finally, we reached a truce. I told him no and he would back off.

Then Shawn showed us to his room so I got up to see and the dog followed me and so I started panic brisk walk-hop, and it ended up wanting to chase me and I'm just, "BLIND PANIC BLIND PANIC" and Shawn is like, "No! Don't run! He thinks you're playing!" But I don't care. I would try to outrun it anyways.

And in the room, noone blocked him from me so he ended up almost placing his wet slimy nose on my hand!!! And I was like, "AAAHH STOP IT!!! NO NO!!! DON'T TOUCH ME DON'T TOUCH ME!! HELP HELP ME PLEEAASEEEE!!!!!" Nasib aku tak nangis tau! But like I said, I wasn't afraid. I just don't want it to touch me. But my wariness somehow evolved to fear. I think he could smell it.

When we dah nak balik, he was all sniffy-sniffy and cows, I cut off all his hair baru tahu tau! I know you're not suppose to run, but he was trotting after me!!! Mengigil sak jap. Iza, I know how you feel. Buggering hell.

No no, I'm not afraid of dogs. Just of being trapped in a confined space with them. -shudders-

blue & orange are complimentary

Malcolm in the Middle is officially over on Channel 5. BOO. My dad & I really liked the series. My dad liked Dewey the most and I have to agree. Though Hal is very funny too and when Dewey & Hal work together, it usually produces hilarious results. Oh well. I really wanted to see what would be the gender of their newest baby would be.

I'm just going to say it's a girl and that's that.

be prepared to penetrate.

Harry Potter. -shakes head-

Well firstly, the cinema was huge. Too big I think.
Bah & me couldn't shut up, I think we could have been slapped for bouncing in our seats and talking loudly.
Some of the lines in the movie were just suggestive and the sudden cut to another scene made Dumbledore's words mean more than it should.
Dumbledore. -SIGH- I don't like him. He's so OTT, so -flourishy hands-

They gave all the good lines to Hermione, everything pon Hermione and I am just annoyed that Ron just got to stand there. I think Rupert Grint is a better actor but maybe I'm just biased. I just wish they would stop making it seem like Hermione and Harry got something going on. Just cos the two actors get along well.
Do you realize that in interviews, it's usually Emma Watson & Daniel Radcliffe that talks the most? Empty vessels makes the most noise!

Okay I'm definitely biased.

Neville is really tall.
Luna is not as loony as she should be I suppose but she's gives off the impression that she's floaty. AND, she looks like an older, prettier version of Dakota Fanning. And two people have said she looks like a female Malfoy.

I don't like their version of the Threstrals. I like the ones in my head.
What Quidditch?
If you want to hear, "Weasley is Our King", look for me and I'll sing it for you.

The fight scene at the Ministry is my absolute favourite part in Book 5. But the movie? Nyeh. The scene with Dumbledore & Voldemort fighting was ookaaay.
Cho is so annoying I want to poke-poke her doe-eyes.

Look out for Ginny.
Look out for Bellatrix.
Notice Percy.
Don't read the book before you watch the movie, "just to recap" cos you'll be disapppointed at all the missing parts. Even with my foggy memory I was still disappointed at how many parts were cut out. Oh well.

One last song before I go
-to the tune of Simple Plan's Crazy chorus-

Tell me what's going on!
Between Harry & Ron!
They both seem to like
Each other's waaaaannddd...

wretched week

I feel horrible for bringing up that subject so early this morning and I'm sorry. Yesterday, one of my absolute favourite "old people" just passed away. Yayi Bakir is my late grandmother's youngest brother and he was one of the fittest Yayis I know! More fit than my own grandfather!
He's the one I always imagine at my wedding (should I ever have one), and other weddings, doing his silat harimau, with his shades and his cute little cap on. I never thought that THAT would not be a possibility. Cows. WHY SEY. It was so sudden and shocking and unexpected.

Well, what I'm trying to say is that even if that person is super healthy and is at the prime of their life, death could be waiting just round the corner. It catches up with us all. And even if a person is diagnosed with a terrible illness or doctors say that chances of survival are slim, that does not mean they will die. You never know, you know? So you, keep faith and pray to God everything works out fine. And I'll doa for you too.

We always need more time don't we.

If I don't say this now I will surely break
As I'm leaving the one I want to take
Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait
My heart has started to separate

I call this one, "I have been here forever."

Yesterday, Rao, Yati, Nis & I had to go for a event that we stupidly volunteered for, out of the kindness of our hearts. Plus, we weren't thinking. My whole Sunday gone just like that. I could have been painting, doing my assignments and watching Live Earth at the same time, and eating and napping and then watching Ugly Betty followed by Lost to end off a perfect day.

But NO!

Instead I woke up at 630 am and made my way to Nis's bus stop before 9 and then waited and fumed because they were late and I wanted to get a bus with TVMobile and I really needed to shit and I was hungry and I rushed out of my house just so I could sit in pain at the bus stop?! Basketball court. Dah lah aku siket-siket je constipated.

Okay overshare.

From Ubi Avenue to Toa Payoh to Victoria Theatre. And honestly, we did NOTHING. We were all whimpering, "I want to go homeee" when we arrived because we so didn't belong amongst all the Malay dancers and they all looked so mean. If you asked us what we did the whole day, 10am-10pm, this is the answer.

Send food twice.

Eat twice.

Drink.

Climb up stairs.

Go back down.

Sleep.

Play cards.

Lepak-lepak at different staircases.

Carik apek ice-cream.

Direct one Japanese tourist.

Shrug when people ask about this and that. (Nampak je macam tahu benda, padahal, padahal)

Be nervous about having to go talk to our group.

And I didn't have to send food nor did I have to call my group down since I was in charge of the MCs, so it was more than pointless for me. Though I did feel bad that I could not direct the male MC to the toilet cos I don't know where it is. And they took their own food. Heh.

The most interesting part was when we got to watch their full dress rehearsal. The event was called, "Rewang 'Nak Tari" and had all the so-called power-power Malay dance groups in Singapore. And they had live music by ADIM, probably the only boys there that didn't have thick makeup on.

Cows, some of the dancers are just so lembut that if they try to be anymore lembut-er, their heads would fall off and quietly roll off stage CAN?! Geram aku. I jealous you know! They're so graceful and nimble and I feel like smacking each and everyone of them. And their costumes were so very colorful and striking! And scary; got so many layers gitu.

I know of Sri Warisan because supposedly, they are one of the best, always see them on Suria. But for me, they didn't stand out. Maybe it's the choreography. I loved Teater Tari Era's traditional item. Maccows, need stamina! I preferred watching the guys run ALL OVER the stage and leaping and hopping all jolly-like.

Sri Wana was pretty good but I didn't really care for their drums. Ntah eh. Azpirasi was awesome, so was Perkumpulan Seni.

They had a contemporary segment, which I thought was a bit weird and so I fell asleep for a while (even though they had that bukak-tutop kipas part that I always like to watch) but I watched the real performance later that night and only Tepak Sireh stood out, to me. Contemporary Malay dance??? Um, okay.

I just like Teater Tari Era very very much. SO NICE. Okay lah, it's just their moves. I don't even know how good their dancers really are.

When we were finally, FINALLY released, it was raining heavily. So we did what we normally do. Be impatient and just ran for the busstop. And then we ended up making one big round to find a taxi, we stood at a traffic light and did star jumps to try to hail a taxi, we ran after each other all Sembilu-like complete with dialouge "Jangan tinggalkan daku! Aku cinta mu Nis!" and we almost got hit by a car, who honked crazily at us. All. in. the. rain.

Finally, we just took the MRT home.

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people>
Maybe we should take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

Ps: My dad ignored me when I asked if I could have money to take a cab back cos I was wet and cold and poor me, I wanted to catch LOST. When I go back home at midnight, he opened his bedroom door and asked me casually,

"Hello Madah, how are you?"
GGGRRR. Yes I started ranting and he just closed his bedroom door on me. I'm soooo sleepy....

some song

Yesterday, I was watching a really poor quality DVD of Ocean's 13 with my father and suspiciously, I knew the dialouge, the whole plot and what happens in the upcoming scenes. -shuffles feet- I swear, I didn't watch it at the movies Dad!!! -twist in my pocket-

Anyways, my father suddenly said this to me,
"When I was younger, in all my life I never thought that I could own a TV like this. I didn't even THINK I could even BUY a TV."

(Cos our TV now is that Samsung plasma HD bapak/kakak-kau-giler-bodoh nyer type complete with 5 speakers and a new DVD. Courtesy of Tantor Dua Saat aka Aishah.)

And I remember my dad telling me when he was younger, they would creep at people's windows to watch THEIR TV cos they were so poor back then. Really sedih uh. And now, he has this whole set in his own house and it's just so, WOW. And we continued,

Me: "Wah Abak, how long ago did you think that huh?"

Abak: "That was like 50 years ago..."

-long pause-

Me: "Wah, like that, in 50 years, who KNOWS what I might get!"

And it's true. The thing I NEVER thought I could have now, I could probably get 2 or 3 of them in 50 years time. Or even less! It makes you think eh. Material things sure decrease in value fast.

Traveling I only stop at exits
Wondering if I’ll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets in and I don’t cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Ps: A lot of people getting married eh today. Best kan?!

bubble wrap

I don't understand. Tell me this, why do orang-orang Islam sekarang fikir minum arak itu memang sudah menjadi perkara yang biasa? Muslim in name only. I would seriously rather let these people remove the word Muslim from their IC and jangan lah mereka mengaku sebagai orang Islam ever again. Buat malu ajer.

I wonder if they know rasa malu. Such intense shame that you feel that your face burning with unbearable heat and it feels like it's going to fall off and the emotions that you feel is too much that you sprout peribahasa.

And please eh, Malay does not mean Muslim.

I know some of the Muslims don't drink like, regularly or whatever but a disturbingly number of them have tried alcohol before. I don't understand. Is it just to try out, see how it feels? Be part of the crowd? Drown your sorrow? Sedangkan kau tahu benda itu haram, mahal pulak tu and from what I've heard, it taste horrible and the after effects are worser still. Jadi, kenaper?

I guess the question of haram halal won't really be such a big issue for those yang tak pegang sangat pada agama. Tapi, what about those yang mak bapak ajar? Lupakan, begitu sajer. Senang pe, kan?

I don't know why I've never tried it before, when I have such easy access. And it's free too so taking a sip won't cost me at all. Except throwing out everything I've been taught and all the things I try hard to hold on to. Maybe I'll change my mind in a few years, when the influence is overwhelming and too many people are doing it and I've changed. Cos I know I'm definitely not the same person I was 3 years ago. Who knows right?

But for now, I'm just so sick of all these people. So irritated, annoyed, sad, angry. They've got nothing to do with me so sometimes, I just push it all aside and click on ignore.

Like how orang-orang Melayu-Islam pakai tank top & spaghetti straps, plunging necklines with boobs threathening to spill out and nobody even bats an eyelid cos hey, normal what. Smoking, drinking, clubbing are all part of everyday life. Tak sembahyang? Takper, kau masih muda. Masa masih ada untuk kau berubah biler dah tua nanti.

Harap-harap kau tak terpelecok dalam club, patah leher dan mampos sudah.

I don't mean to be all preachy, righteous anger and all that. Tapi, tak kesiankan mak bapak ke? And I'm guilty of some things too, I'm not a saint and I don't pretend to be. Just that some things about our lives these days that bothers me.

Ah, buat bodoh je lah.

melting ice caps

You know what the Vice-President of Indonesia said? He said that if the world does not help Indonesia with their forest fires and stop deforestation, they will just let all the forests be cleared and then finally, the world will feel the effects of their action or rather, inaction. Come on people! Don't let the Indons threaten us like this! Help them help them!

Forest fires are such a pain in the ass. I wonder what's their purpose. Global warming, leads to increased temperature which in turn, increase the possibility of fires starting, which would lead to less forest therefore less trees so more CO2 that will travel upwards and cause a hole in the ozone layer. THANKS EH.

And then we use so much water trying to put it out but we can't we can't, it's so hard and the animals are running in panic and the baby animals can't run fast enough and they burn, BURN TO DEATH! Horror giler. I can never be a fire fighter.

So let's talk about Live Earth again, cos I can't let it go. Is there money made from these concerts? Like, is there revenue collected from the tickets? So yes, you say that the money can be used to stop global warming. But HOW? Where is the money going?! I don't want to hear excuses! -slap slap- Give me results! -slap- People are making all sorts of "efforts" and functions but you just do not see any result. It gets worse every year.

However, I do like the short ads they make about switching off the lights in a room, even if you're leaving for a fraction of a second cos even that will save alot of energy. I think schools waste alot of energy. The lights are ALWAYS on. -shakes head- Oh and switching off the plugs, and not just leaving your charger plugged in even when your handphone isn't attached. Come on people, we don't want the animals to die do we?

I keep thinking about the polar bears. The image of the dying male bear, a spot of white among a mass of bouncing brown blubber. KESIAN OKAY. -shakes fist at the walruses- Why won't you let him eat you?! SATU JE PE.

Oh suddenly, oil spills! Be responsible people! Start wars over oil, kill people over oil, and then SPILL oil into the ocean and then everybody is like, "Oh no, that's not MY oil." Bloody monkey. Hmmm I'm losing sight of what I wanted to say cos I see the clock showing 11.55 AM and my class is at 12 PM.

RUN.

action packed

Omg a bottle of body mist just attacked me! Okay anyways, my weekend was action packed, so much so that I didn't do project at all and I feel oh-so-guilty. And that's why I'm here at my computer, blogging and wondering how I'm going to upload my pics. Cos they're all still in my camera. -forms the triangle of evil plotting with my fingers-

Friday - Went to the SPCA before GMGM, with Nis & Rao to view the adoption gallery. Oh my god, sometimes, I really wish I can keep a dog. There was two dogs there called Macho & Wolf and they are just, breathtaking. Handsome giler. I want to hug them sey!! Macho has the most amazing blue eyes and Wolf has a red-tinted coat and is so majestic and regal, he boleh kalahkan kuching sey!

The cats there are fat and awfully playful and the ones in the cages are sooo manja, I almost wanted to put them in my pocket and run away. Gorgeous kitties, please go adopt them people! Kesian tau! Why nobody wants them?! I throw YOU away then you know!

Nis wants to adopt a cat there but the procedures abit leceh. -scratch head- How eh.

Saturday - Ran to Hougang in the morning to get the Field of Dreams tickets from my brother and his house was kecoh cos he had his niece over and he was in the middle of cleaning his house.

Ran to Tampines to meet GM to go to the play at the Arts House. I didn't want to be so elitist, standing separately from Naza's friends but shrugs. Segan lah. Poor Naza had to go back and forth between us. I think we're not really friendly. Action eh kiter?!

Oh my god the plays! The plays! I can't tell you which parts I liked best, nor can I tell you why it is good but it is just superb. Everything that Naza said it would be. I rather wish that I had watched it on a less busy weekend so I could talk more about it and discussed it more but I'm on a time limit here. Let's just say I would gladly go watch it again so I can digest it. One sitting wasn't enough for me to totally get the whole thing. I want to watch again. Like seriously dude.

I really enjoy the intimate atmosphere but it made me nervous and a tad uncomfortable when the guy rolled too near. Takut terpijak. But really man, what a unique experience. Better quickly go write in my diary. "Dear diary..."

After that, Nis & I had to rush in a cab to Kallang MRT (& the taxi driver was scolding everybody
and we had to jump out) to meet Fas, where we made friends with this guy from Penang who was on his way to the Christina Aguilera concert. I don't know why we suddenly felt friendly THEN.

The match was kind of lifeless cos I thought that the Australians were very the relak-one-corner but even then, they managed to score 3. They could have destroyed us but they didn't. Aper dah. And then fireworks and other nonsense before we could go home. Thanks for the free tickets Bhai.

Oh then I got home & watched Seabiscuit. Aduhai Tobey Maguire.

Sunday -
Watched Transformers with Tina, Izzah & Abg Hazar. It's AWESOME PEOPLE!!! MUST WATCH. Better than POTC, Spiderman & F4! Menyesal nanti tak tengok. 2 and a half hours but it never felt too long, or draggy. Nobody sitting/standing in the rain, looking off into the horizon while sad music plays in the background. No "heartbreaking" scenes or too much double chin. But, like Michael Bay said, there was heart. And it came from the robots. I love you Bumblebee.

"This is a 100 times better than Armageddon, I SWEAR TO GOD!"

I gave it a proper review at my Multiply. I'm too all over the place now.

Came back home and watched the Making of Transformers, then Harry Potter, then Ala Folie Pas Du Tout, then Ugly Betty, then LOST (I love LOST I love LOST), then the season finale of Pepper Dennis!

Me: Hello everybody, my name is Hammadah and I'm a TV addict.
Everybody: Hello Hammadah.
