guilty little things

And I somehow end up feeling guilty about being super snappy to him on the phone, when he asked about his HDB stuff. It's just that I was waiting for this particular moment in Heroes today, the Sylar-Peter showdown and like mere seconds before that scene happened, my mother yells for me to come to the phone immediately and she's shrieking at me and cows. Ringing voices in my head.

I don't mean to be rude but can't you hold it off for just 2 minutes! JUST TWO MINUTES won't kill you! I know 2 minutes off Heroes won't kill me either but I wasn't even watching it, I was just waiting. Imagine waiting for a celebrity and when he finally comes, you're in the toilet or something. Argh I'll just let Alanis sum it up for me.

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
It's a traffic jam when you're already late
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife

Welcome to Ubin.


I remember we were all VERY glad that we didn't invite any boys because our physical condition was waaaay below par and it was embarassing at how we huffed and puffed for breath. Malu nyer.







Anyone could see
The road that they walk on is paved in gold
And it's always summer, they'll never get cold
They'll never get hungry
They'll never get old and gray

You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
They won't make it home but they really don't care
They wanted the highway
They're happier there today, today

Ps: I did it!!! But the rest will be with Rao, so Rao please help me upload at Facebook and tag my face! (Unless it's damn burok.)

Zoom Ubin

Friday morning came and found me sitting at the Tanah Merah busstop alone at 845am, as my father had dropped me off so early because he's suddenly Mr.Punctuality. Rao, Sya, Ais, Naza & Fas came soon after and then we set the busstop on fire with our shrilly excited chatter about what we were going to do at Ubin, what we brought, comparing bags and outfits and also, Rao & me passing Fas her very belated birthday present. Use it well Fas.

It also brought unwanted attention to us from other people at the busstop, on their way to work because the 6 of us were so obviously unemployed and not schooling and unusually chirpy so early in the morning and all geared up to have some fun. Well, excuse us for being so bloody free!
In the bus, we were talking loudly about Korean dramas and comparing notes on the different dramas and the memory of "100 pounds, don't know how many thousand pounds" when we talked about the Korean film 200 pounds of beauty still makes me smile. (I heard someone say 105 pounds. So specific sey.)

Then it became about TV series in general, and how Ais is "ketinggalan zaman" with her Prison Break and somehow it led to choosing a husband topics and erm, their equipment and OH terus Rao hidup and changed seats to fully join in the conversation.

The boat ride to Ubin was quite uneventful (as in I didn't throw up) but when it docked (?) at Ubin, cows it was swaying like freaking crazy and I wonder how the boatdriver thought we were suppose to get off sia. It was as stable as a Viking at an amusement park! We managed to hop off though and head into town to get ourselves bikes and off we went!

There were alot of stray dogs but they were nice enough not to try to lick us or whatever so it's actually pretty fine, until we came to the first hill. I was determined to cycle all the way up the hill but at the end, I found myself feeling extremely nauseous. We were all quite tired I think by then but we continued cycling to Chek Jawa and halfway, I couldn't take the nausea and I wanted to get off my bike so but I was so tired I was wobbling and as I swung my foot around, I lost my balance and PLOPPED into the bushes and muddy ground.

And laid there for a while.

I heard Rao call the others back, telling them I fell off and so we took a rest and wait for me to recover. After that, I cycled very slowly at the back with Rao somewhere near me and at every hill, I just jumped off my bike and pushed it up. Fas & Naza were somewhere in front of us and at the top of one hill, I saw they had stopped so Rao & me caught up to them (I think the Ais-es were far ahead by then) and then we saw that Fas was breathing very heavily, which quickly became more like an asthma attack and she started to panic and omg, the 3 of us I think were even MORE panicked and she didn't have an inhaler anyways, so all we could do was try to comfort her. Fortunately she calmed down and it went away or else I wouldn't know what to do. We were so far away from civilisation and other people and to get back, we would have needed to cycle quite a distance. So dangerous!

After that we decided to take it slow and finally when we reached Chek Jawa, we ran into another problem when Naza, Rao & me couldnt lock our bicycles and finally had to give up and make it look like we did. Exhausted after all that, we took a long 2-hour rest at this jetty-like place, eating Kaya buns, drinkinhg and just talking about significant others and how they factor in GM, relationships, family and at the end of all that, I think everybody felt loads better. Good enough to jump around taking pictures in the burning sun.

And good enough to climb that bloody tall tower that we later criticized for being unstable. Hungry and sweaty, we decided to head back around 2plus, and so off we went. It was way more enjoyable then because we went down steep hills at full speed without braking much and "WHEEEE-ing" all the way with the wind in our face, and started singing lagu 3 kupang and then this matsalleh lady who was cycling beside us asked,

"Kamu dari mana?"

And Sya (ever so friendly) cheerfully replied, "Kami dari Singapur, kamu dari mana?"

And she replied that she was from Switzerland and they talked about dunno what while I giggled. I thought she was just hentam-ing her melayu but she actually knows Bahasa Indonesia so luckily we didn't gossip about them.

I think we were reaching the town already when I heard (who I thought was Sya but it was Rao) scream "MADAH BURONG!" and I turned my head and saw a Oriental Pied Hornbill. So I slammed my brakes and screamed, "HORNBILL!!!"

And then slowly crept to Rao who was holding my camera, and took a couple of shots of the bird before it flew away. Gorgeous thing! It was so unbelievably cool that Rao, Sya & me were still discussing it while we continued cycling that we didn't really check where we going and we got lost.

Ais, Naza & Fas were already in town by then and I was wondering why they didn't wait for us and it was because the place where we had stopped to look at the hornbill was very near the exit already but Sya, Rao & me were super kental that we ended up deeper and deeper into Ubin. 1st time we checked the map, we were like "Oh no wrong turn back there so let's go back."

So grumbling, we turned back. 2nd map we checked, we were abit confused as to why we were heading in deeper. We took another turn, went down a very familiar steep hill and I remembered the hill as being where I almost crashed and by then, all 3 of us were severely confused and irritated as hell and I swear, I thought Jin sembunyikan kiter or something. BUt it was a bright afternoon sey! So there we were, 3 girls (dua dari Girl Guides lagi, so tak guna) staring at the 3rd map and dissecting it into parts and discussing so intently you would think we were on some huge country padahal baru satu island dah cam gini.

Talk about Belebuk Hut or Berabuk Hut and Jalan Sejuling or other equally weird names, and eventually we realized that we were making one huge round and somehow, managed to find our way back to the other 3. That little adventure burned off an additional 3 kg of fats from me I think, but it made the whole trip a bit more memorable.

I think all of us were too tired to hang out after that and we just headed to Changi Village to buy some food and we sat and eat for a while, and I don't know what we talked about but it had Fas say "Vagina!" rather loudly. Oh Ais was describing to us in great detail how a C-section was carried out and I think all our jaws dropped open and stayed that way for a while. Such a horror.


They made up their minds
And they started packing
They left before the sun came up that day
An exit to eternal summer slacking
But where were they going Without ever knowing the way?

- The Way

Ps: My comp's spoilt and I don't think I can upload all the pics, not even to blog! I don't know. I might try later and see if I can but first, let me scamper out of her cos Tina's tuition teacher is coming and Im so annoyed.

I think everybody would be happy to know that I've taken a break from watching korean dramas. Yes I have other committments too you know, like finishing my episodes of LOST!

OMG! I just finished Season 3 and I'm so shocked I want to pull out my teeth! Hit by blinding realization!! It's such an awesome feeling! For those of you who haven't been following, don't bother. Let me just bask in this feeling. Waaaahh.

too sexy for his shorts

Was surprised to see Spore 2 goals up against Lebannon but oh my god, was even more shocked to see Spore player no.13 in his super short shorts that were almost obscene enough to warrant a parental guidance rating.

I mean man, are you here to play football or what?! I just couldn't watch! This guy was far from being anonymous, with his striking orange boots and OMG THOSE SHORTS. My eyes! I'm too young!

But I thought Spore could have scored even more goals. Squandered alot of chances. Overall, memang aku tak sangka! And I was also half watching Zoom Hong Kong and Nurul was so silly about her taugey-phobia, calling them cockroach legs. But I understand lah what she means but it made me giggle. Imagine them making me eat udang.

Eh I CAN eat udang okay, but it's like eating plastic. Super yucks. Burger I can probably force for a helicopter ride but cannot put time limit. I think pasta would be the worse cos I can't stand the mee type in the first place. Maybe drinking milk! Jeng jeng jeng...

happy 1st anniversary

Because my brother shamelessly texted everyone, demanding to know why noone offered congratulations for a year of marriage, I'll do it here secara besar-besaran OKAY BHAI DOUBLE CHIN?!

CONGRATULATIONS DEAR BHAI & BU KINAH!!! I'll give you guys a kitten as a present okay? But wait 6 weeks.



rocking 'pool world

Headlines: Champions Manchester United crushes 10-man Liverpool
Sir Alex: I love Liverpool games.
Final score - United 3 Liverpool 0

I went to Bai's to watch and cows, my brother was slamming Paul Scholes throughout and insisted that Scholes be taken off so that Nani could come on and Im yelling at him to be LOYAL. And he said, "It's not about loyalty, it's about brains!" And then I think Scholes was crowned Man of the Match and Bai went "Whaaat! That old man, he played one..."

He's so lame lah.

Of all the players talked about pre-game, WES BROWN yang score first cows. From in between his shoulder blades! Fernando who? Poor guy had on too much blusher, but doesn't he know he's already such a pretty boy he doesn't need it.

Rooney's, Ronny's & Andy's missed chances were so EURGH!! Anderson with his flying dreadlocks obscuring his vision! Thank god for Nani! He came out of nowhere for the 3rd goal, and brilliant somersault celebration after that. He'll be lucky Fergie doesn't kick a boot to his head for that stunt. But I was still smirking and shaking my head at Ronaldo when the 3rd goal happened.

My brother called the 3nd goal a "brownie" because of the people involved. I was just thinking to myself that Ronny hardly ever scores with a header, and then he goes and do it. ANd his OH SO SMUG face after that, like I can practically hear his arrogant thoughts all the way from Old Trafford. "I'm too sexy for the balls, too sexy for the balls. I'm Master & Commander, God's gift to football. Bow little people bow."

There's a reason I didn't like him in the beginning, with his blonde flicks he calls fringe. Yes I've gotten fond of the Boy Wonder but like Yati said, omg stopit sey you Portugese Mat!!! "Eh kau fikir aku takut? Nie Cristiano Ronaldo laahh!! -thumps chest and goes UGA UGA-" I'm sorry Ronny I love you but ease off the gel and get down from your haughty stool. We all know you're a goal-scoring freak okay.

Hmmm Felix (omg he's such a conspiracy theorist! He should write for the daily mirror!) said there's already conspiracy theories in reference to Mascherano's red card. What could there possibly be to conspire?! That the referee Bennett, having read all those reports about Ashley Cole being disrespectful to the ref in THAT game and that he should have been sent off, was influenced to do what should have been done? Come on, everyone saw that 2nd yellow card coming for Mascherano.

Torres had already gotten one and Mascherano was already charging towards the referee to protest (no don't say he was talking calmly, he looked quite displeased) and Xabi Alonso had the presence of mind to try to hold his teammate back. Too bad he let Mascherano go and pester the referee for an "explaination" (according to 'pool) and BOOM. 2nd yellow = red card = 10 man Liverpool. Oh and THEN he really GOT MAD. Drama baby.

Too bad that he got sent off really, because I thought he was doing fine in stopping Man U. And it also made 'pool fans retort that the only reason Man U can win by 3 goals is because Liverpool was short of one player. That's not fair cos I thought Man U did brilliantly. Are you not entertained?!

Though I prefer Man U vs Arsenal because it's more exciting and there's always a chance Adebayor might start hollering like a lunatic. Oh and Chelsea just scored again. 2-1 to Chelsea. Come on, draw!


"Blessed with his usual embarrassment of riches in midfield" - from Manutd.com about Fergie.

LOL. I can't wait to see what TNP has to say about all this.


it's time to push the button

Gong Yoo. I can't watch anything else except him because Im in love with him. Sorry KJH. I was just telling Shaf that I couldn't even watch his dramas properly because I kept rewinding and pausing and PRINT SCREEN-ing his face and pasting it into my Word document of him. Hahah I think I might have close to a hundred of his face from his dramas in the Word doc, this is excluding images from Coffee Prince. -slaps myself silly-

So far I've finished 3 of his 8 drama series (Coffee Prince, One Fine Day & Hello My Teacher). I can't find the other 5 because they're really old anyways.

I didn't think "One Fine Day" was very interesting but it was quite sad. But it got repetitive and if it was any other actor, I would have ditched the show. But for Gong Yoo...shrugs. In the beginning it was very OMG because the adopted brother of his "sister" was like a rapist/molester kind and I was very GROSSED out but you know, it was good TV. The plot twists were kind of drama mama but fun lah to GASPS appropriately.

I really liked "Hello My Teacher aka Biscuit Teacher & Star Candy" because he was quite young back then and he played this high school student who liked his teacher (and I kept yelling "So salah sayang, so salah!" throughout) and cows, he just oozes boyish charm. Still does. And he had a cool bike. Haha but I think common sense needs to be discarded when watching this.

Actually with all good TV shows, you need to discard logic and reason. Fall in love people, fall in love within 3 days, 3 minutes, 3 moments!

What can I say about Coffee Prince. I love him the most in this show. All hotness and the epitome of a Mr.Spiffy. Mr. Spiffy wasn't as spiffy as Gong Yoo in this show. Loafers, well-fitted tees and long-sleeves shirts rolled up to the elbows. Drools.


I watched 3 of his 6 films like "My Tutor Friend" but he had such a small, silly role in this one. He was some gangster kid but I liked the main character so I continued watching. Then in "S Diary", he was this hot arrogant playboy but he was just the supporting cast and the movie had a lot about sex. About the girl and how she gives sex away like candy to the boys she thinks loves her and whatever. I didn't finish this one.
"She's on Duty" was MAYBE nice. I don't know. I didn't like the main actress and plot was predictable, I could have written it back in secondary school. But haiz yes for GongYoo.

I told Yati I wanted to find a guy like Gong Yoo.

What was that? I was nominated twice for being "Most Likely to Fall in Love with a Fictional Character" on Facebook? Hey, Gong Yoo is REAL okay, not fictional! Get your facts right!

Haha okay sorry, no I meant that I wanted to find a guy who's tall. I know, our requirement is at least 1.8m tall right? But I don't want him to be skinny! I want him to be well-built, and he has to have nice hair. And then, he should have a gorgeous wide smile with dimples, and crinkles at the corner of his eyes when he laughs.

He should be masculine/manly, but also sometimes be playful and charming. He must OOZE boyish charm and kindness okay, OOZE. I don't want it to flow or come out in droplets. Hmmm. And he must meet my previous criteria of being a good Muslim who goes to pray Friday prayers and not smoke. I think I'll let him off the Pasir Ris criteria though. And maybe he doesn't have to have blood type A.

Oh and he should also be able to drop by reality whenever I need him.

k-drama progress report

~* WARNING- ALL ABOUT KOREANS DRAMAS*~

Don't read if it's going to bore you. But if you love me, READ.

I still maintain that my favourite Korean drama is still "Princess Hours" aka Goong because it was the very first one that I watched on ChU. I remember seeing the trailers and I thought to myself "Hmmm looks interesting." I didn't even LIKE watching Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean/Japanese shows back then, and I regularly made fun of Rain and other J-pop or K-pop nonsense. In other words, I was Yati.

I kept forgetting to watch the show (every Monday-Friday @ 7pm) and then by the time I caught it regularly, it was already half-way so I was rather confused and had to ask Li Yan alot about the plot. Year 2006, back @ Tourism Academy Sentosa, I remember running home everyday and waving off my friends and telling them "No no I'm in a hurry! -dashes off-" And every Tuesday I think, was a horror because Culinary class always end so late so Eliza (I think she had other reasons for wanting to run off early) & me were always squirming in our seats and answering Bernice's questions super fast so she would stop wasting time!

So 2006 was the first time watching kdramas, and then I stopped. Until last year when Nikman brought his laptop and played Fullhouse and I still made fun of it but I ended up wanting to watch tetapi at last, I didn't. AT ALL. Because I burn the videos wrongly or something. But Nikman lah yang made GM want to watch korean shows, and the Fas got really addicted and she kept brainwashing me and I was already halfway there so it helped.

I started visiting my local rental shop and the aunties there knew me and I began renting koreans DVDs lah, starting with "My Girl" (because Fas influenced me). After My Girl, I rented Princess Hours to watch AGAIN and I remember it was during Ramadhan and my mum would screeeaaamm at Tina & me because we couldn't stop watching. That's the only korean drama that Tina would watch, I think.

Then I watched "Love Story in Harvard" halfway then I found it extremely boring. No I don't like Kim Rae Won, no matter how much he is adored. It was around there that ChU aired "Witch Yoohee" and it was KIM JEONG HOON from Princess Hours! So I watched and then KJH came down to Singapore and Fas & me went completely nuts and went to drool at him.

Sandy knew about my crazy obessession (we ended up having alot of things in common, which was weirdly wonderful) and she lent me her Taiwanese drama "Sonria Pasta" (which I couldn't finish because she still has the last CD with her and I have the rest of the season with me) and we both cooed over Nicholas Teo.

And then, ChU aired "Coffee Prince" after that and it was THEN that I met my true love, GONG YOO. -melts- Eun Hye was the girl from Princess Hours too so I already liked her so it was easier to watch.

There was no more Kdramas after that, so I forced myself to watch "Goong S" (which was kind of boring and I missed the ending) and then I watched "Precious Family" because Lee Dong Wook was there. After that, my computer was fixed and then it was MYSOJU, here I come.

Somebody recommended "Sweet 18" so I watched. I didn't want actually because it got kind of boring but then EH Lee Da Hae of My Girl was in it so I watched because I really liked the 3 lead actresses.

Okay I was going to continue but I realized that I would need to do a Gong Yoo post entirely on it's own because I am too obsessed for my own good.

I've finished "Hello My Teacher", "One Fine Day" and films like "My Tutor Friend", "S Diary" and "She's on Duty". I'm finishing "Robbers" soon, which is very VERY nice though and Jang Hyuk is nice to look at I suppose but I just adore Lee Da Hae and the plot is very interesting and it can be quite funny and quite sedih so you don't really get bored. After Robbers, I HAVE to watch "Thank You" before Fas cuts off my head.

I watched the beginning of Bad Love & The Devil so I should finish them too I think. Oh another Taiwanese drama that I didn't finish is "Romantic Princess" because I thought the girl was ugly. But the guy is ooooohh quite cute lah.

Okay dah stop it with the korean dramas. Next up, Gong Yoo's sole entry. Oh and Fas & me are trying to brainwash Wadah into loving Kdramas as much as us. Wadah wadah, who asked you to ask for the link and now we're like bombarding her with recommendations on what to watch first. Fas & me had to consult each other and tap our chins and then go yeaah, Princess Hours first.

Like seriously.

ChU is showing it again every Friday night so I'm watching it for the THIRD TIME now and I still love it. Sarang hamida indeed.

OKAY IM STOPPING NOW THANK YOU FOR READING. Or not.

maulidur rasul

Today marks the birth date of our Prophet, Nabi Muhammada s.a.w. and like every year, we went to Masjid Khadijah again yesterday to commemorate it. I share the same birthday as our prophet (in the Islamic calendar) and I'm still not sure if that is something that I should proudly declare.

Not that I am ashamed of being associated with the prophet like that, in fact it is a great honour but more that if I have such bad habits and am not that good of a Muslim anyways, why broadcast it to the whole world right? Diri dah tak betul abih ada hati nak declare such things. You know like you go to the club, and you meet someone there and happily tell them, "Yah I'm Muslim! -downs a beer-" Tu betul-betul nak kena sepak kasi mampos. Or to those who happily eat at places yang dah sah jual babi. TONYOK BODOH. So what if you're just eating the duck, which was previously hanging beside the pig!

Okay wait no, this wasn't suppose to be a rant.

I saw on RTM 1 how the Msians are celebrating our Prophet's birthday and seriously sey, it's their very own Chingay! Gerek lah, eveybody in baju kurung and all that. I mean sure we blast the Msians for a lot of things (some of them are pretty unjustified but people stereotype) but they sure got this right. You wouldn't know Maulid Nabi has been going on for the past 12 days if you just walked around Singapore. Like, tak rasa pon! What the hell kan.

And I really do love my masjid, have been going there since before I was born, since before it became this cool air-conditioned, thick lovely carpets, beautiful chandeliers place. So many memories there, and the people we know but pretend not to know are still there. I remember all those time Sha, Iza, Tina & me would escape from the masjid and run out to buy sweets and snacks and then we would go to the front of the mosque and chillax at Abak's motorbike.

And then, when we can't stand Tina's naughtiness anymore, we send her to "go look for Abang". Let him deal with Tina the Terror.

Last night was pretty much the same. I was very interested in the syarahan that I think Ustaz Faizal (?) was giving, but my dad said it was too long-winded and people were getting grumpy. Ah come on people! But it's true ah, bila dah time nak makan, everybody was cranky and snappy. That shouldn't be the case! Oh wells.

And when it was time to leave, punyer lah PACKED. Some makcik was shoving me and so many strange people touched me on my shoulder and back, and I was drowning and then I looked out of the masjid and directly opposite me, separated only by a wall, was a familiar looking mama. So I yelled,

"BHAI!"

And he looked up and waved me over. I managed to push through but I lost my brother in the crowd and Tina & me felt so helpless until Tina said,

"Look! I know that helmet! It's Abak's motor!"

And so we pushed ourway there and stayed there until Bai & Abak came to chillax with us. Poor Bai had to push his bike out from "a sea of people (exactly what he said)" and had to "tumpang lalu" all the way. Mak pulak, macam biase, was stuck someone in the kitchen. Bai kept insisting he was late and he needed to GO and Abak refused to give his hand to Bai to salam, and kept repeating,

"5 mins je, 5 mins je."

And Bai was like, "Mak lagi lamer lah! Mak nak cuci pinggan, vacuum carpet lagi!"

Of course he was being sarcastic lah. The thing was, EVERY makcik was wearing green because the orang-orang masjid dah plan nak wear green together, my mother included, so all of them looked like my mother & Bai & me were playing a guessing game.

"Is that Mak? No. Tu eh? No. How about that one? Still no."

And this woman walked past me and I'm like "EH MACAM MAK SEY MAKCIK TU!" And Bai gasped and said, "Kau menghina Mak! Mak is not that ugly!"

It went on like that for a while, while Tina & me were giving silent hand signals to each other and mouthing words to each other and using our eyes to talk. About? HAHA mat masjid! Okay stop it sey but just one person in particular who stood out. Or rather, stood beside us.

My dad says that orang Islam & masjid is like fish and water. We need each other! And Tina & me broke into a song while waiting for a taxi about how "I wish I was a mat masjid with a songkok on my head!" Because to be a guy and to chillax at the masjid just seems so cool. And we bumped into the budak-budak nasyid aka the kompang guys at my brother's wedding on our way home and fun sey, they just went to the side of the masjid with their guitar and whatnot and started playing. Tak tolong cuci pinggan eh!

Oh no I forgot I was suppose to buy TNP Noon edition, I might as well go kedai kan tadi. Now I feel very bad.

Another text msg frm my brother at 6am -

" Final score EPL Man utd 2 Bolton 0...Ronaldo x2
Spurs 4 Chelsea 4...Bai x8"

oily hair makes good referees

Remember that first Russell Peters video where he did that sign and he said that the Italians use that sign to say "What the fuck?" I've always thought that he was joking but now I wonder. I was watching a Serie A game between Inter (AHA! I knew I knew Ibrahimovic from somewhere! Juventus!) and Palermo (or something) and this player came up to his opponent unhappily and waved that sign in his face and his opponent did another sign and gods, they're so ITALIAN.

And I remembered another game, this time with Roma and Totti and another one of his OWN players were arguing throughout. Like if Totti missed a shot on goal, this particular teammate would come up and they would argue argue argue. Even after Totti scored and he was celebrating and his other teammates had come up to congratulate him, this teammate of him came up and you guessed it.

They continued arguing. Hahah that needs some serious WTF-signs.

Maybe they weren't arguing. Maybe it's an Italian thing. But everybody else were smiling, why not them? A lover's spat, perhaps.

Oh and the referees always have such oily hair. Reminds me of Ronaldo. No not the bald one. He would have a future in refereeing, when he retires. Such slick hair must not be wasted! Oh there was a poll on whether Torres the Spanish fly-boy with golden locks (god TNP) was better looking, or Cristiano-chiselled-face-gelled-up-hair-Ronaldo.

I vote Ronaldo on principle but erm, I think Torres is better looking. Maybe because he has natural eyebrows, and not perfectly arched ones that look better than mine. But Torres reminds me of Crouch sometimes so to hell with it I vote Fabregas.





Ps: Looking for C.Ronnie's images, I found quite a few of him almost naked. What's up with that??



Oh the Champions League draw would see these two meet again. Another lover's spat. Don't keep your hands under your coat!

late-night news

My brother just smsed me this and I found it so funny:

"Mido red crd! Boro 10 men! Dia kasi Clichy TAPAK TROJAN kt kepala. Kepala bocor! Berdarah! Da mcm wwe Smackdwn! Hahaha"

I can practically imagine my brother standing in a brown trench coat, pressing an earpiece to his head and rapidly shooting off these words while the wind whips his clothing and hair and in the background is the football pitch in chaos over this crime of TAPAK TROJAN-ing someone.

He's in such a hurry to tell me what happened that he can't even form sentences! Hahah this is a game between Arsenal & Middlesbrough by the way, and currently they're at 1-1- at the 86th min and if they draw, Man U is clear at the top by 2 points. Oh how the tides have changed. This IS an exciting title race isn't it.

Ps: I saw the FA cup highlights on that Portsmouth game and ZOMG I wanted to strangle the referee. I swear, Man U was cheated out of a win! That one oppportunity that Michael Carrick missed was so unbelieveable I swear Portsmouth was using black magic lah. Pakai bomoh nie!

epic chalet part 2

It was raining so we ended up waking at 9 plus and we all slowly walked to the common toilet and there we were, a whole line of milahtants looking horrible and brushing our teeth together. It had such a P.Ramlee feel to it that it was worth the slight discomfort.


We had breakfast, steamed hotdogs, egg sandwich, tuna and NUTELLA! Cows we all brought eggs sey, like for REAL and there we were, peeling them outside our hut and we had makeshift clothes line (using sticky tape) to hang our clothes and towels. A stove, spreader, chilli sauce and other nonsense.

After the rain stopped,we quickly did our Perkampungan Gengmilah video (with totally impromptu dialouge and just a few quick directions from Bah and ideas from the other GM; it's at YouTube!) and then we continued with swimming in the pool but the rain started up again, and we couldn't stand it so we played in the rain! Just bhangra-ed there and played Pepsi cola and the chop chilli chop chilli chop game, all the while in the heavy rain. We were wet, might as well go all the way. -wiggles eyebrows-



At some point, we gave up and went back to the hut and started cooking Maggi mee, and we all brought the curry flavour and it was then we realized that we all had different ways of cooking our Maggi that we ended up arguing about whether the flavouring should go in first or last, whether the mee should be broken up into so many pieces or not, whether to break the egg yolk and mix it all or should it enter the pot whole and we all want different ingredients in our mee. We can never live together lah, sedangkan Maggi je boleh gaduh.



These two girls heading off to wash dishes in the rain and were so happy to do it.

Ain, Nis & Fadi came later and we played the WEREWOLF game again (and I say, I would kill Yati & Ais on principal alone because they're both such liars) and then Sya & me went off to buy dinner (KFC & nasi goreng!) and to meet Yana.S. When we came back, everybody was ready for the GM party. Kain batik, NASS uniform, make-up & masks.

The events people set up the party table so nicely! Loaded with goodies and snacks, props and whatever else and I thought it was very well done.






Wadah had to leave halfway and so Bah & me accompanied her to the hut and back and along the way, we found and rescued a frog with a leg that got run over. What is a frog without a hop huh? And while we were on the road back to the pavillion, this ranger car drove past us and it slowed down and the guys inside stared but the 3 of us buat bodoh je lah. And when we neared the pavillion, the ranger car came back round and parked right beside where we were and the rest of us were getting nervous already because we didn't know if the area we were in were out of bounds or something.

Then the rangers used their speaker to say something and Fas went neared to them to hear lah what they were saying and Bah followed her cos we were all damn uncomfortable already. And it turns out they were asking, "Oh ader makanan eh? Birthday party eh? Siaper nyer birthday?"

COWS GATAL NYER MATS. I really thought we were doing something wrong, which is why we even responded in the first place but after that, we were like sudah ah, buat bodoh je. Nothing better to do issit!

We continued playing a few games after that like human musical chairs, in which Naza the human chair got broken because the two Ais-es fought to sit on her. And Ain tried to sit on Fas the Radio, which does not work! Then the game of cat and mouse. Who are we?! WILDCATS! Hahaha Ain has to be the funniest cat ever lah, she was so semangat to go out there and grab somebody and she was already sweeping the area with her hands before the game started and luckily for her, Yana was the mouse and Nis & I ran to Yana to confuse her like crazy until she crouched down and covered her ears and Ain was still sweeping at the air like mad until I yelled at Ain and she said my voice was very clear to her so she ran towards me. Hahaha and we finally won!



This is Yati, when she thought she was the cat but actually she was the mouse and she ended up walking to Fas the real cat and being enveloped in her arms.



Playing charades after that. Boulevard of Broken Dreams! WHOOO!! Hahaha I'm so proud of that moment. We were actually trying to distract Rao but half of us forgot that about her surprise and so the lies we told each other to distract Rao had us snapping at one another and being cranky. We all ended up walking behind her and Ain and passing poppers to one another and whispering furiously.



And when we reached the hut, Ais & Naza weren't ready so we stood at the door for what felt like an hour, getting snappier and snappier and pounding on the door because Rao was turning and wanting to leave and go pee and we were sooo suspicious because we wouldn't let her and we all had part poppers in our hands and I had my silly string can under my sarong.

So weird kan that when the door was unlocked, we insisted Rao climb back up and go in first, even though I was first at the door. I think she knew already and when she got in, kena ambushed.

Naza & Ais did a really good job on this lah, super nice decorations and all that and Ain's brownie cake was DIVINE. No I'm not complementing you Ain, I give my thanks to Betty Crocker. Super chocolatey, heavenly, PARADISE.

After-party for Rao




The cake has RAO written on it with M&Ms and 2 big candles to show well, Rao's turning 2. Which is so apt.



The best thing about it being an all-girl chalet is the crappy things that we could talk about things like "mati pucuk" and about marriage (a fav GM topic) and we decided this.

Requirements for GM boyfriends:

He has to be at least 1.8m tall.
He has to live in Pasir Ris.




And we could also dance our hair off and noone would care. I have a very embarassing video of Naza syiok sendiri-ing nak mampos I can barely angkat beb. After dancing and bhangra-ing (with poor Yana.S trying to fall asleep) like maniacs, the lights went out and we started our karaoke session, as seen in the previous two videos. Hahaha I swear, best memories ever. If I was to lose my memory, I would hear those songs and start crying without knowing why. Or I would remember boobs. Lots of it.

Suddenly in the middle of our karaoke session, Fas played a korean song. OUR FAV. Ang Moo Sae or Parrot from Princess Hours and we were singing to each other's face and Nis said, "Dah sarang hamida da kena bom tu.." and that memory just brings a smile to my face. And both Nis & Fas seducing me on so many occasions, running our hands up and down each other and Nis & me being so close we were almost kissing! HAHAHA. I suddenly miss you all.

Omg Rihanna's Don't Stop the Music is damn annoying and TAJAM and the girls just HAD to sing it to me and slithering up and down my body on the bed and shaking their booty, it was horrible! Hahaha and afterwards, all the yaya papayas fell asleep while Nis Fas & me (thought) were the only ones awake and suddenly, from the top bunk came a voice.

"-seductively- Aku belum tidooo..."

And it was Ain and she climbed down and joined us talking like there wasn't 6 other people sleeping soundly. We made fun of Rao's & Sya's snoring, especially Sya since she sounded like she was swimming underwater and she did wake up choking. And then Ais woke up and threw her handphone cover at us and when Ain asked,

"Aper nie??"

She whined, "I don't knoooww it came from downstairs!"

Then she promptly fell asleep while the 4 of us cackled on the bed. At around 5 am, Fas & me couldn't stand it already and we wanted to sleep and Nis threw herself on top of us and squashed my boob with hers and kept tickling us but at last, she gave in and she, Ain, Fas & me squeezed onto one bed and fell asleep.

Again with the phone alarm that wouldn't shut up that belonged to Ais and I think Fas & me were already grinding our teeth in frustration until silence came back once more. Stress sak aku. Boring stuff after that, packing up and eating our uneaten snacks and distributing money and what not. Ais & Naza went off first because Ais was sick and then Nis went off and I didn't even know until I saw her tiny form a distance away, waving happily at us. We went down to Siloso like FINALLY and played around for a while until it started raining, then it was home sweet home.







On the bus back to Harbourfront.

At the interchange, we hugged and kissed macam we were leaving on a jet plane gitu padahal padahal. And then after we parted ways with Sya & Fas and were about 10m away, Sya called and asked if we wanted to go eat at the hawker centre. Waste my kisses and hugs only! After chillaxing for a long while, we parted ways again but by then, dah malas nak mushy-mushy so pergi balik ajer lah.

Poor Rao & her balloons and her cake and her huge turtle shell on the MRT, hitting everyone and I don't know how she managed it home on her own. I got home and immediately fell asleep and then I couldn't sleep until 5am the next day. Aper sajer.

I think this was the best chalet lah and the next time, we'll go somewhere exotic? But still have small spaces booked because you know we like to squeeze with one another on the bed. Okay mwah peace out.

I asked her to stay but she wouldn't listen
She left before I had the chance to say
The words that would mend the things that were broken
But now it's far too late, she's gone away

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you
epic chalet part 1

The epic chalet that we've been waiting for at least a month is finally over and I feel super pressured to find a job now. Especially since it's almost confirm I can't get into NUS. Anyways, let's do the chalet entry day by day now!

Tuesday morning came and I was still not ready! clothes, food and other stuff were all over the place and I crammed everything into 2 bags then it was raining so heavily and I had to carry an umbrella and do a detour to get glowsticks and it was just terrible.

2pm came and left and we all finally met at Giant Vivo close to 4pm. Giant is really GIANT and I couldn't find Rao so we ended up prowling the aisles mewing for Rao and when we found her & Fas, then the shopping really started! This is where the JOKE OF THE CHALET happened.

Wadah asked if anyone brought chilli sauce and I said yes, I told Fas to. And Fas was like "Chilli sauce? You didn't ask me." And she said that she brought chilli as in CHILLI THE BATANG. She asked me the night before how many batangs I wanted and I said one should be enough. I thought when she said batang, maybe typo or she meant batang as bottles or something. It never occurred to me that she would think I wanted real chilli because WHY?! So poor Fas brought one batang of chilli in her bag and Wadah, Rao & me went completely silent and had to crouch down because we were laughing so hard we cried tears.

Fas you're damn funny lah.



Couldn't decide on a drink. Kotak or bottled?



Getting excited over hot dogs.



Fas and her lone chilli.





On the Sentosa Express.

Other nonsense things happened like them making fun of me not knowing how to pay using my debit card and me standing in the queue and memorizing my PIN number and feeling rather nervous, Wadah thinking that you need your EZ-link to ride the Sentosa Express, we being commpletely clueless about where to check in, where the resort was at even.



But finally we reached our chalet, Kampung Tuas Hut C and WAH. It was bigger than expected and the fun could finally begin!





Somehow we ended up just chopping the beds we wanted to sleep on and our respective sleeping partners and just chilling first while the rain poured. After that, we needed to go find forks to eat our dinner.





Kental sey, sampai ke Palawan beach we carik garfu. After eating kway teow goreng, which is still too spicy for Fas who said her lips were burning off, we went to SWIM! (And then there were no pictures because I don't want my camera to get wet).

The pool water was damn cold because it was at night and it just finished raining. I hate going to the swimming pool when I know I can't swim! At least I can float on my back though! Hahaha and Wadah Rao & Yati were determinedly trying to learn how to float/swim and we played a few games of pigg-back fighting. I was on Bah and Yati was on Wadah I think and when the game started, Yati reached out and PULLED ON MY HAIR! Violent sey! I wanted to twist and give her a bitch-slap and at last, I managed to push her into the water. 3 times! -victory lap-

Then we played the singing underwater game, and doing the cannonball in the water but I can't go underwater without holding my nose! While we were playing those silly games, there were these two guys in the pool with us and cows, they could do somersaults from the water and they were flipping everywhere and whatever we were doing seemed so....kental. Graceful in water definitely does NOT describe us.

The pool closed and we went back and met Sya Ais & Naza who had just arrived and while we were outside our hut, eating and laughing and talking, our stupid neighbour came out and told us to keep quiet! He pointed to his watch and made the silent sign and we were like "STUPID SPOILER". SO we went to the beach and sat on Fas's mat and played the concentration game (which Rao Bah & me won) and the calculation 21 game, then back at our chalet beside our pool, we played murderer and WEREWOLF until 3am in the morning.



Playing card games at the beach.

On the way to the beach, we played so many games, pretending to be in the army and marching (or forced to march by the Finance Manager) and then bombing each other and doing roll call.




And while the rest marched properly, the 3 renegade milahtants at the back walked sloppily and out of time. Kena pekik suruh buat push up sey.



We went to bed after that because Rao was already nodding off, and I don't know what we were talking about but it ended up with Rao & Yati (who were sleeping on the bunk bed above Fas & me)threatening to pee on us. WTH! And when we all settled down on our beds and the whole room was silent, I couldn't stand it! Because it was so unnaturally quiet! We asked Ais, who was reading a book, to read out loud to us to help us sleep and the atmosphere was so nice. Rain falling gently on our roof while in the darkness, Aisha's voice rang out loud and clear, while Fas & me whispered to each other about what we think the author is talking about.

There were plans to wake up at 6 and walk along the beach and so around 6plus, handphone alarms started going off but we all just moaned and groaned and yelled at each other to shut up and Fas was making weird noises and Yati's handphone was vibrating on the cupboard which travelled down to my bed and omg, they all cannot sleep with Iza sey if they don't know how to click on snooze quickly!

..to be continued...too long lah...
epic chalo chalet!

The first video is milahtants singing our theme song for the chalet. All I can say, thank god it's dark. "I may not make it through the night; I won't go home without you!" But they will go to sleep with or without you.



And the second video is us singing a song that we all know and love to death. It was crazy, it was like 2am and all our neighbours were asleep and we were sitting in the dark and this song came on and you could just FEEL the tensed atmosphere as everyone tried to not start too early because you know, this song's intro is rather long. I was also tensed till I didn't start recording until everybody got past the first hurdle and starting singing in earnest.

Okay so we weren't singing but more yelling and screaming in unison. It was SO loud. The loudest song of the night.



Okay some pics at Facebook, different videos at YouTube and Multiply. Sorry, maybe when I pass the pics properly to Rao then she can upload the whole thing.

OH MY GOD I THINK I DELETED MY BROTHER'S WEDDING PHOTOS. OH FUCK FUCK FUCK I THINK I REALLY DID. I THINK I THOUGHT THAT I BURNED IT ONTO A CD ALREADY BUT I ONLY DID THE FIRST DAY. THE SECOND BIG DAY IS COMPLETELY WIPED, EXCEPT FOR THE ONES ONLINE.

OMG. ALL OUR CANDID PHOTOS, PICS OF MY MUM AND HER COUSINS OR WHATEVER THAT SHE TRUSTED ME TO TAKE WITH MY CAMERA AND IT'S NOT HERE! I CANT FUCKING FIND IT! FUUUUCCCKK ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? SHIT I WANT TO SHOOT MY LEFT EYE OUT ARGH WHAT A FUCKING COCKUP.

the piper's calling you to join him

When we are happy and in such a good mood, in a good place like where we are now, we can be sooo nice to each other. Sure sometimes I feel suffocated and sometimes you need to take a "break" from your friends because you need alone time. But it's always nice to go back and be "ngam" again.

But of course we're girls, and our bitchyness has to rear its ugly head. And oh god, the sarcasm. The subtle jabs or the blunt rudeness that we think we're entitled to because we're such GOOD friends. I think yes, that can be let go though you may feel angry at that time. I don't think people stay angry for long. Your anger lasts maybe only for that day. But what keeps you being "angry"? I say it's pride. Ego. Stuborness.

I know that when I argue with someone, even when I'm no longer mad about what they did, if they pricked or stomped on my pride, I would find it much harder to get over it. Sudden bursts of extreme irritation and flares of pissed-off-ness sometimes happen but we all get over it in the end.

And that's how we will always end up right? We will GET OVER IT. And we wil end up friends again, no matter how mad we were at each, no matter how many mean things we said. (But it's better not to say things in anger though cos sometimes you can't take it back.) So I hope the bitch mode can be removed for now and we can all stop acting like petty little girls, even for a little while.

Oh and I was thinking, though sarcasm pricks at me so, I loovee using it. And it reminds me of the peribahasa, "Kalau helang tiada, belalang menjadi helang." Haha that's so bitchy lah! Maybe it's in our culture, our gender and the way we interact to be petty and mean. But never cruel.

Oh did you see Meerkat Manor? How the pregnant older sister just chased out her younger sister for no good reason? And she wasn't even the boss! Females. Hmph.

a whine house my house

So Amy says, love is a losing game. Which makes me retort back, "If you think love is a game, then you've already lost." So how? Can I be a scriptwriter for sappy Korean dramas? ON to more important things!

You know, most Singaporeans are voting for Chomel the orang-utan to be the next zoo icon. I doth protest!!! What is it with Singaporeans with orang-utans? Sure yes, cute name. Chomel meaning cute, but spelt in such an irritating way, with that additional "H". It's not suppose to be there right, it's suppose to be COMEL. And I use this opportunity to also damn people who are annoying enough to name their children COMEL, or INTAN or, PUTERI or CANTIK. Stop it can. I'll be damn irritated if I had to call a friend "princess" all the time.

Oh anyways, why must the orang-utan be the next icon sey? It's disrespectful to Ah Meng to, the original orang-utan! Would the real zoo icon please stand up! I think otters would do pretty well because we can touch otters right? No wait, my last stand on this is SAVE THE SUMATRAN TIGERS! Save tigers, period! Stop eating their balls, bile or brains lah okay. Stop with the bear paws and shark fins.

Why issit that when people have such a WIDE variety of food, that they INSIST on going after the ones that aren't meant to be eaten? Those rare endangered species? WHY?! How would you feel if one day, your pet dogs decide that eh, dog food isn't so nice anymore, they would like to try out human meat? Just cos it's soo exotic and maybe by eating human meat, they can stand up on two feet like us and be as "intelligent"?

Geram sey. Oh eh which reminds me of the time Raja said that maybe we should feed our birds human meat. He had (HAS) such weird ideas.

salty water

I read a line, it said "Replace those lost tears."

And I wonder, can tears be lost? Maybe if you cry for the wrong person.
AND, my weird dreams have GOT to stop, it's driving me nuts. I wake up super disoriented. Like how today, I shot "fisherman" and I cried after that calling his name and this girl was screaming at me. Significant?

Nah...

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we shareS
eems to go nowhere
I've lost my lights
I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

And then sometimes I feel like a baby orang utan when I look at my father chewing on an apple and he bites off a huge piece and takes it out of his mouth and puts it in my outstretched hand.
Oh did you see this totally attitude guy who sang that Tainted Love song in AI? So bitchy! I like! -does a hairfringe flip-

I love Jason Castro.

revist to the park

I LOVE DR.MINERVA! I do, I do. She's just soooo cute and sweet and motherly and lovely and I want to cubit-cubit her cheeks! I went down to the park to pass her my powerpoint and I thought that she would take it from me but NO! She told me to go to her computer myself and just put it in there since I know all the passwords. And I did disturb her during lunchtime. HAHA.

Then she told me, "You and your friend go jalan-jalan after this okay?" And we both broke out into grins. Yessa. But si pendek gemuk tu (no, not Dr.M) like so kepoh stick his nose into everything and was disapproving but we didn't care. Just walked very fast away from him. I wanted to SLAP him.

After that, from noon to 3plus (I didn't realize the time, too much fun feeding the lories), we walked around there. Saw the Hawk Show birds training, my first time seeing. Saw the traps for the mynahs that Gan put around WFA. Good job Gan, you're so smart! Though I don't know why the metal trays for the turacos are out there. Would they wanna eat in the open? Shrugs. I would doubt it.

I met Alan at PP, heard his keys jingling, then met him again at WFA. Then met, Abang Sadali aka Mr. Krayon! And luckily lah I met him because last day I didn't get to see him kan, and also, he gave me A PAIR OF NIGHT SAFARI TICKETS, complete with tram rides. Ah see see! This is why I'm fond of him! And I finally saw his wife and saw um, Peter flirting with her and another lady over the counter. HAHA I told Sadali and he just kept snorting and shaking his head.

Best kan husband and wife work in the same place, and SO dekat somemore! Like also, Lory Loft is under Sadali so he gets to see his wife every minute of every day! Hahah cinta sejati tu...



Jerry the Salmon-Crested Cockatoo. He's damn cute lah, he would put his head at the bars of the cage to be stroked like a cat. And I saw those friendly Red-tailed Black Cockatoos, so CUTE! And the Little Lorikeet.

The usage of the terms "lory" and "lorikeet" is subjective, like the usage of "parrot" and "parakeet". Species with longer tapering tails are generally referred to as "lorikeets", while species with short blunt tails are generally referred to as "lories".

There you go Wadah.





Poor Wadah, a lory took the liberty to climb on top of her head and call out to all its friends and doing a little cha-cha up there while Wadah cringed. Screaming in her ear and all that. And there's a pair of lories that were trying to overturn the tray to get to their favourite treat under there. Sweet honey-like substance. (I forgot what it's called but I know it's sweet.)

I swear, the Lory Loft feeding has GOT to be the best experience in the whole of the bird park. Beating WFA talk narrowly probably. Maybe if WFA had more birds? Cos our birds are cooler but lories just DEMAND attention and they're so pretty and so many will climb onto you. Sigh.

Wadah, please tell me when you're going Serangoon North again okay? Argh so tempted.
I dare myself to MOVE

My dad is just UNHAPPY to see my at home, cos I'm ALWAYS at the computer when he wants to use it and he's been trying to kick me out WITHOUT providing me with money lah. So I know I know, I want to go get a job too but this chalet is in the way. Though I'm currently annoyed that we are having it SO late, I'm very excited for it to happen.

THIS chalet my friends, will be of epic porportions. We have Food IC, Interior Designer, FINANCE MANAGER (nie seram), Quarter Master, Events IC, Liason Officer. We are truly prepared now. I hope. -rubs hands in glee-

But I'm damn bored at home and watching Kdrama and Will & Grace all the time don't really do it for me. I'm going blind. My eyesight is getting worse. I NEED A JOB. But first, enjoyment. I want to work at the airport? Slowly, the Spore flyer is not becoming an option. And I've been sitting at home everyday for the past 3 weeks? And occasionally meeting the Milahtants. This isn't turning out so well. I SHOULD'VE BEEN IN DUBAI.

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next

Ps: Maulid Nabi starting this Saturday.

the little things that's furry

I wanted to get this bird. It's called a Little Lorikeet and it usually grows up to 15 cm in length. It's quite tiny actually, and the one that I got acquainted with liked to nibble at my fingernails. Help me trim it maybe. And its bite isn't as painful as the other bigger lories.




Yeah have you been to Lory Loft and got bitten by the birds there? It can get quite painful. But oh they're lovely. I personally think that Sun Conures are soooo PRETTY and they are perfect to be used as photography birds. Though bad temperament. I had the pleasure of meeting a sweet tamed baby Sun Conure once though, but their colour isn't as nice. Still greenish.







But more than wanting a bird cos I miss BP (then why don't I wanna go back there? Got friends what! But also, got ppl...MM!), I want a CAT!







Yes I want a cat so badly. Tina's friend wants to give us his kittens but they are females and that's a problem lah. I would have to sterilise them and GOD, it's just too horrifying to go through THAT again. At least Pippin was very friendly with us so she didn't mind. I don't like the thought of sterilizing and forcing a strange cat to eat medicine.







Been visiting CatWelfare's website alot and omg stop it eh! I should go get a job, not look at cats and kittens! Um. Whatever lah. I waaaaant. I want a snake. But a cat will do!
hope floats like poo

I talked alot about hope today (or rather yesterday, it's already past 3am) and it's a cruel thing isn't it. Why do people put so much hope on one person, one thing, one event, one moment and pour so much emotion into it? Harap kan pagar, pagar makan padi you know. Though it's not possible in real life, but ye lah, kater peribahasa.

I think you can have experiences that are emotionally draining, but you will never end up emotionally drained, because the human body is just capable of holding and carrying too many emotions, some which they have not even named yet. But is hope the worst emotion out there to feel? Shrugs. Despair. Regret, maybe.

Crap I had something profound to say but it flitted right past my brain and went scampering out the window. Thanks eh.

safe jokes

Yesterday Bai came over to collect his kuih nagasari and of course the topic of everyone's favourite GoldSafe came up. Cows this high-profile manhunt/escape has been a source of many hilarious jokes. I know I know, NOT FUNNY. But you should've seen Bai waddle around the house, doing impersonations. And Iza wondering if Mr Safe had stacks of Prison Break dvds in his cell/room/wherever they were keeping him. Imagining all sorts of scenarios...

So many theories and please eh, do you really think he's going to board the MRT?? Chillax lah can! OH for Tantor Dua Saat in Dubai, the big thing happening here currently is that this "terrorist" escaped n now the whole of Spore is looking for him. He's more well-known than the Prime Minister.

But really. How to recognize him. He looks just like any other Malay guy out there. I saw the pictures in the TNP and cows, if a Malay can't recognize him, how can you expect an Indian or a Chinese to do so? To them, we all look the same anyways! And do you really think he got time meh to go out and buy hair dye and color it ginger? -rubs chin thoughtfully- Spore is small but only now do you realize that we have TOO many people on a TOO small space. Which makes it harder to find someone right.

And you dare suggest to raise our population to the "proposed ntah beraper million level"? You want me to suffocate issit? Wahcows.

walking with a ghost

I've been having bad dreams lately, the kind that make me wake up and whimper. 2 nights ago, I dreamt that the Japanese came back and took over Spore and our armed forces didn't even put up a fight! I remember sobbbing on the way to our new camp cos I knew alot of people were gonna die and it was more like Japanese Nazi than Germn Nazi.

But sekali they sent us to a playdoh factory but it was very sad lah cos some people turned traitor and worked with the Japanese, one of them being ASHRI!! Yes Ashri from rockclimbing! It was weird but I was damn sad.

Then last night I dreamt about super skinny kittens and cats, kept in hamster-like cages. And they were SO skinny, when I touched them, I could hear their bones cracking. Ew.

Then got some guy who kept following me around, but it was cos he wanted to get to Izzah. And I was so scared cos he knew EVERYTHING about Izzah and I don't know what he wanted from her but I knew he got all his information about Izzah through me. And so I went to my Yayi's house to tell him lah, and while I was talking kan, I saw the front door slowly open and this guy STUCK his head in cos he wanted to know what we were talking about! Seram sey!

Okay maybe it doesnt make any sense but I woke up and I saw Tina and I was whimpering, "Tinaaa tinaaaa maner buijaaa...." and continued to roll around in distress. What sia.

changi beach

So (last) Sunday morning dawned on Rao & me, determined as hell to go and see this bloody flight display! Dropped off at the wrong busstop, walked through a few countries and finally, the perfect spot! Ate nasi lemak, menjiwai lagu Cenderawasih (it's KALUNG), chillaxed on the sand awhile with Rao's bro and his gf and then it was time!

It was VERY sunny though so you can practically see nothing on video or camera. Rao & me kept saying, "I can't find it I can't fin it!" But ah, the human senses are really God's gift to us. No recording device out there can match the quality of my eyes. If only my eyes can zoom and snap stills, wouldn't that be perfect.

Anyways, I was quite tickled to see quite a few shots of just plain blue sky, and others with planes in them so small and tiny against the blue backdrop it looks like lalat okay! And the sky was rather hazy so the pics turned out like that lah...

The Black Knights were awesome lah. But why knights and why black, when the planes were actually red & white? But they did the heart shape in the air!!!











Flying upside down and doing endless 360degrees stunts, rolling over and over again. They looked like they were having so much fun!!



The solo fighter jets display wasn't as nice cos we had no idea what was what and they moved so fast that it was hard to keep up. But okay lah.




Most came from that direction, making Rao & me even more pissed that we missed it on Saturday!

Finally, the gentle giant. It really looks like a huge whale swimmming in the sky.






We only got to see it land on Sat, from the bus.



Fish commits suicide by drinking shampoo...

u can't see vain in your rearview mirror

I CAN'T GO LOOKING AT PONIES OR SHOPPING FOR SHAMPOO COS I NEED A PART-TIME JOB!!! Why even bother waiting for NUS to call, you're not even gonna get in. DONT JINX IT DONT JINX IT! -throws salt over my shoulder- But I'm gonna do it the Shaf way and scream, JOBS COME FIND MEEEE.

delayed airshow entry

I said to Fareha & Rao that I wouldn't even want to blog about this. I didn't even want to forgive the transportation service and the damn Airshow people, unless I met some hot guy down there and we got married. Then, after my 1st child entered Primary 1, will I even CONSIDER getting over this event.

However, since I have pretty pictures, why not?

We agreed 1030 am was sufficient time to get there but no. NO. The queue to the shuttle bus? Took almost two hours. Through the interchange, past the MRT, behind WhiteSands, past Whitesands again, go BACK past the MRT, go to the other side, go all the way to the front and beside WhiteSands again, come back to the middle walkway, turn right left right left on grass, go under the white tent and THEN get on the bus.

Ya people asked us where was the end of the queue and it was (would've been anyways) damn fun to turn behind and point to a tiny red dot in the distance and go,

"You see that hut there? Yes about a few light-years away? The end of the queue is BEHIND that. Good luck and godspeed."



Sampai keluar interchange!




Took almost 2 hours to board the bus.

(Eh I read somebody complain in TODAY, said they went out at 10.30am from their house but finally reached the Airshow at 4.30pm and by then, they were denied access. Can you believe they drove to EAST COAST PARK and then CYCLED there? Why not rent bikes from Changi Beach? -scratchs head- Tu namernyer bodoh.)


Then on the bus, it's so packed, kids were screaming (Rao & me officially hate kids), there was a freaking LONG jam on the roads, we were standing throughout the whole thing and we could see the end of the flight display frm inside the bus.

And then my dad zoomed past our bus window on his bike, all happy that he got to watch the display for free on Changi Beach.

CURSE YOU AQUA SCUM!!!

I really wanted to meet the Black Knights. Even though they weren't black and their planes were actually red and white but whatever!

Luckily when we reached, it didn't take ONE HOUR to get in, but like 1/2 hr maybe? Queues, endless queues!




But finally we got there and we were in quite good spirits because we were joking around with each other and making jokes about the queue. Nasib lah.





Then pictures with pilots! -slaps our silly faces- Ader yang kacak bangat noohh....Tapi dengan yang TU lah yang kiter segan...





Then a special with Rao & her ex.




A380! The gentle giant. (Which suddenly reminded me of last night's Animal Planet where they were talking about Elephant Grass being the tallest grass in the world, and then the grass parted and OUT came an ELEPHANT! Oh then they showed a pride of 30 lions killing an elephant. Fascinating.)







One of the suites inside the A380.

And these are Sporeans, not being able to stand the heat and exhaustation, settling underneath a plane. I think it was the Hercules? -shrugs- Having a picnic, while their children made the tyres into their own personal playground. And I saw a few who actually SAT on the wings of privately-owned (I think. Those small ones uh) planes. Please lah show some respect!



Security everywhere...




I think I'll continue with the Sunday entry later. Tired...

Oh went to VivoCity just now to see Yati's grad show opening night and it was fun with the rest of the GM. I dunno why we acted like it was going to be the last time that we were gonna meet each, with numerous pictures taken. Me & Ain. Me & Sya. Me & Rao. Then Ain & Naza. Naza & Rao. Like group photo I understand uh but to take satu persatu like weird! And yes we've established that I am unreliable. Go away lah! Okay bye.
