Peace and Love, Michael Jackson

It's so shocking! It's all anybody can talk about now, you should go look at what's on the internet. Michael overload, and NOT of the Phelps kind. After reading like the 10,000th article/news piece on MJ, I got abit irritated. Yeah sure, now that he's dead, everybody is speaking so highly of him and complimenting him and just falling over themselves to throw positive superlatives at him.

I remember exactly 10 years ago, I was talking about MJ and how much I loved the guy and his music and my teacher (Mr. Iskandar of Elias Park Primary School, 1999) just tells me so patronizingly that Michael Jackson is a nobody now. That he is just a child molestor now and his glory days are behind him. I remember being quite offended at that but at 11 years of age, I was still easily influenced by the opinions of the people I looked up to.

SO this is just to rant at Mr. Iskandar for a while. How could you have said that to a KID?! Now that I am 21, I've come to realize that he must not have been much older than I am now, when he was teaching in my primary school. SO SHAME ON ME FOR LOOKING UP TO YOU, YOU BIG FAT JERK! He probably didn't know half of what he was talking about, irritating P.E. teacher. Thank god I started disliking you back in 1999, when you humiliated me in front of the entire class.

Now that I think about it, he WAS an asshole. Why did my friends and I like him to much back then? I saw the error of my ways early though, but I never told my friends who adored him. Aquascum! It gives me great satisfaction to know that you're fat now.

ANYWAYS, back to Michael!

So everybody is singing his praises now, and I guess it's kindda true. People DO speak well of the dead. Cows, Paul McCartney from the Beatles is still alive but The King of Pop is dead! UWEK!!!!! I really want to see all the tribute shows that all the major networks are putting out for him. Michael Jackson just brings back childhood memories, back when we were still living at Ubi. We would watch his concerts on TV and attempted to follow his dance moves.

Omg, he had this one female guitarist with crazy wild hair that Bai and the rest of us called, "Mak Michael Jackson! (MJ's mom)" And for a while, I REALLY thought that was his mother. Thanks Bai and Aishah. Oh and how we would spread talcum powder on the floor and try to do the moonwalk (something that I can never do, up till now.)

His MVs, which were totally EPIC. Thriller scared the crap out of me but Remember the Time really stuck in my mind. The gold clothes was a WIN. The Black or White music video - I LOVED the ending where all the people's faces changed. He was HOT in Bad and Beat It and omg, Smooth Criminal was another epic win! Aishah, do you remember telling me to "keraskan badan!" then you would try to make me do that move they did in Smooth Criminal, where they all lean forward without topppling over?

Ah this can do on and on. I am gonna go watch videos of MJ now. SOBS. I hope he mati dalam iman, being Muslim and all. And oh, R.I.P Farah Fawcett too! Wow, what a day.

I love his uniform in this video. I've always wanted one! Then I realized that generals don't usually wear such fanciful clothing. His "mother" is here too! JAM, Billie Jean, Black or White

Here's Black or White.

1:23 onwards, when the wind blows his jacket/shirt up is such a classic moment!

Finally, another classic moment ( I wasn't even alive yet!) when Michael performed Billie Jean on stage for the very first time. The Moonwalk!

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far

- Earth Song

XOXO,
Madah

mian!

As my dear DEAREST friends (*gulps*) have kindly pointed out in my tagboard, I am truly biased without meaning to be. I AM SORRY!!!!!! My god!

Yana - I thought I DID make an entry for you and erm it seems I didn't. Therefore, I will also give you a balloon or two for you birthday okay? Virtual balloons. I hope GIFs work here in Blogger.

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY TO YANA SABIL - hope you had a good one (pull yourself out of the dumps! If THAT is where you are I mean. If not, then....GOOD ON YOU.)

Also, HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY to NUWAI - *throws confetti everywhere*

Nis - GAH I am SORRY! I didn't know you started work also! Why is it that in my mind, you are still schooling? So anyways, good luck in your career then! (that ought to cover it for the next 20 years or so right?)

Ke ke ke I love you my friends, do not be slighted by my oversight. I was too busy LOL-ing at Perez's drama with Will.I.Am. My god, I have Hollywood entertainment news! Unbelieveable.

In other news, how come whenever my two "relatives" are away, I eat more than ever? I just had yummy durian yesterday with Abg Fadly and Iza (sort of, she doesn't like to eat durian anymore. Whatever!) and I heard through the grapevines today that Iza is going to go get me KFC. YAYNESS. And tmr I'm not working! More YAYNESS.

FT Island! Shall I name you their names now?
Hongki -vocals
Minhwan - drums and the maknae (I THINK.)
Seunghyun - their new member
Jonghoon - same age as Hongki
Jaejin - bass

Whoots, I am ready.

weeping willow

So our erm, makcik and pakcik have been away for 4 days now. I think Iza is nicer to me when our erm, relatives are away because I've gotten nuggets two nights in a row now! And I heard I was going to get durian...tak nampak pon?

The Jiggly June party was a blast but that was expected. Epecially when our Lord Commander Sistic Aisy was part of the Exco who planned it all out. Military precision and strategic moves. I would upload pictures but you know the name of the game - Procrastination.

I think I am excited for Thurs. Maybe. I don't know. Fangirling time, yet again. And guess what people? I joined Twitter! Wakaka. Please someone play with me!! Iza is still addicted with her Pet Society; she even has *EDITED. Reason: SENSITIVE INFORMATION. EYES ONLY*

OOPS, Iza, am I not suppose to reveal this secret? HAHA bluek.

Why is everyone watching Transformers this week sey? Why can't they just wait a month? When am I going to get a chance to watch Transformers too? GENGMILAH! And let us please book tickets for Harry Potter. I am so semangat for that one.

Alrighty, before I finish this off, AISYAH, congrats on your new job. Have fun and I hope your supervisors are nice to you so you won't be too stressed out.

An advanced birthday shoutout to YATI - HAPPY BIRTHDAY. And I know birthdays have a way of making your day seem worse but I hope that won't be the case for you. Just for a day. Peace and love honey. I am just a text away!

happy father's day!

Iza and me were waving our parents off just now and saying, "BYE CIK....BYE ENCIK RAMDAN!" Because Iza told me we weren't suppose to let people know that our parents are overseas. Iza was of course being ridiculous and yelling loudly, "MAK, MAK BALIK NANTI KAN?? *shifty eyes*"

And of course we had to have a family meeting in the living room where Abak gave a lengthy lecture about keeping the house safe. I always feel like cracking up during these "serious" moments, which always gets me yelled at and a smack from my dad. And my dad got himself a pair of socks, the kind that has slots for each of your toe. He took forever trying to get them on and was sweating so much that he gave up and shoved the socks into his pockets.

My mum got a new backpack and she was so cute, trotting after my dad (who looked EXACTLY like a Bangla nak balik kampung), which makes me think that I should have taken a picture! I went out with her on Wed and bought her clothes from Cotton On! Ke ke, yes lah Iza, dah kena sound so I feel guilty and got her this really nice long cardigan and a T-shirt. Wakaka.

Anyways, my dad was giving me grief yesterday, about me not wanting to take Chinese 3 next semester. He called me out of nowhere and then started yelling yelling at me and then hung up on me. Darah menyirap can.

Then he started texting me about how Mandarin would be beneficial for me, and to PLEASE not give it up and told me he would pay for my tution. My reply?

Me: -_-"

Abak: Sayang (HAHAHAHAAH) no pain no gain I want you to be successful please.

Me: High blood pressure.

Abak: Nauzubillah Allah selamatkan anak aku Hammadah

If I was arguing with him in person, confirm dah kena strangle dah by now. But I wasn't even arguing lah in the sms. I was quite calm actually! I should have smsed, "E.T phone home." BOO. Dramamama lah my whole family! But he already forgot about it by the next day and I am not stupid enough to bring it up.

Oh no I want to blog about my ngigau-ing with Iza but another entry then! Peace!

there's no shame in being crazy

ㅋㅋㅋ ke ke ke

Omona, who is this? Nugu?

It's Lee Min Jung! For those who watch the Korean version of Hana Yori Dango/Meteor Garden, this is Jaekyung from Boys over Flowers. And yes I got to see her! And she looked me in the eye and waved at me! Hahah okay I'll stop fangirling now. And erm, the new Sony Ericsson phone looks nice!!! *looks at my LG Ice-cream* Hmmmm.....

I excel at this. *tosses my hair*

wireless!

*sings* There's no need, to argue, anymoreeee. Ooohhh ohhhhh ohhhhhhh oooooohhh ooooohhhh ohhhhhh. Thank GOD I didn't pandai2 beli router cos Singnet is awesome like that so now I have WIRELESS. FINALLY. And because Iza is so bising in the background,

THANK YOU IZA, for bothering to call Singtel up and get whatever nonsense. Brilliant. My laptop, ALL MINE. I am SO FREAKING EXCITED. Though, actually, I really prefer my PC. Guess time to move all my stuff out and my bookmarks. Wireless, a laptop and two hard disks. Yay to me!

google

I was telling Iza my reaction when Tina showed me a picture of her boyfriend, cos I went like "HUH, dekni?!....OOPS. Sorry for the tone."

And then I was saying something like how Tina mesti kena ada boyfriend nyer, and Tina was like "It's been a year!" and I told her, "It's been 21 years." HAHAHA. Iza said my boyfriend is in NS. Kes masuk army tapi tak keluar-keluar. I just found that incredibly funny. Yeah and my other boyfriend went to outer space and decided to set up shop with the ladies of Venus. Boohoo.

Okay I shouldn't be making fun of myself. I've got no social life. But WAIT. I went to the birdpark recently and my colleague remembered me!!! At least I leave a lasting impression. Hmph.

Ps: Can I just say the people at Viikii are so awesome possum like that? In the time I took to type out this super duper short entry, the subs went from 86% to 100%. HAENGBOK!

rauf amani!

I'm happy cos I finally got to see Rauf!!! Argh I didn't bring my camera (and it wouldn't have mattered if I did since I hardly upload pictures anymore) and he was making so many cute faces. I didn't realize he had a dimple! Anyways, I only like to hold babies when they're not crying cos I don't know what to do with them otherwise. When Rauf started squirming, I'm like, oookaaayy what do I do now?

Carrying Rauf just reminds me of that time when I was about 9 or 10 years old, and my cousin Iman was still very young and I came to Yayi's house and Iman ran and jumped up on me and I tried to carry him but he was too heavy so I fell over and Iman's head hit the wall behind me and he started bawling. Lol, he should know now to blame me if his IQ fell short of what it should be originally. It's all my fault! And now I think I've gotten alot stronger! Rauf doesn't feel at all heavy to me. I think Darlia is heavier sia.

And I am irritated about something which is rather irrational! Haha. Me and my irrational irritations. Shrugs. Work tomorrow, and maybe breakfast at KFC with Yana and stealing songs from her laptop session. She has such a great collection!! Okay sleepy now gotta go tata.

selimut hari jadi

Omgosh, this is a result of dah-malas-nak-blog syndrome. I completely forget to! (since I already said it to my brother soo)

HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY SITI AISYAH KAMSARI.
I still wish I could have gone for ice-cream with you guys, though my throat hurts like crap right now.

I'm sorry if the pic isn't so flattering Sya but yahlah, you know how life is like. *runs away*

And to the other Siti AisHah in my life, I still have your pic as my hp's wallpaper. SOBS. Sedih nyer!!! And you Cheeeb--, because of you, when I went to the toilet just now, I freaked out big time cos I remembered what you said about MAYBE hearing someone hum/singing. Curse you aqua scum. (unless it wasn't you who said it. Maybe it was Tina?)

swensens outing

I was about to write (again), "While listening to MJ12, lemme blog a little" but MJ12 dah habis. Haha! Okay finally, a picture post from me! This is cos the pics are already in my desktop so I feel a tad more semangat.

First, a picture of Darlia. I hope she's alright. If only she can talk!

The Adi boys in the bus, being rowdy as usual.

(Trying to act natural, just 3 girls riding the bus. Except for Iza, who is bad at acting. Like totally dude.)

Trying to get my parents to take a nice picture together but my dad is even more restless than I am! I absolutely HATE people counting "1, 2, 3 SMILE" when I'm taking a picture. Just snap and be done with it why don't you. Which is why I don't count. Why do you need 3 seconds to prepare yourself, when you asked for the pic in the first place? GEEZ.

And my dad won't stay still for even a second, which is worse.

My dad can act though. Did I tell you that he went like, "OY!" loudly and when Sha, Tina & me (we were sitting opposite him) stared at him, he smiled so sweetly at us, all squinty eyes cos he was actually oy-ing at the couple behind us who were snuggling and doing nonsense things in direct view of my father. TSK. Kurangajar nyer monyet.

The twins on either side of me, while I read the menu seriously.

Bai and his new camera, that he's so proud of. "Jangan gerak eh, JANGAN GERAK!" Tak guna je.

All 10 of us. Can't you see the 10th person? Hehe. A true janin!

Bai made me go into a shop and hold up the jersey so we can pretend that I am a newly signed Man U player. He tried to get my mother to act as Fergie. As in Sir Alex Ferguson, not Fergie Black Eyed Peas.

I think that was the first time all of us (including my brother for crying out loud) actually just window-shopped together. Aside from the times when we were small and had no choice. It was....nice. =)

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my DAD who is 56 years old this year and to my BROTHER who is (*calculates*) 28 years.
In case you didn't realize, because we had no cake(cos my dad insisted that we had none or he would not come; he hates the fuss), the Swensens treat was for both their birthdays and Iza, Sha and me berlanje. SOBS.

Last but not least,

If you see this pregnant woman in the MRT, please give your seat to her for godsakes!!!! Okay peace out.

Ps: AISHAH says HELLO to the people of this blog.

not so last farewell

I was gonna do a goodbye entry to this Janin right here with the nice shoes that A.M got her (and me with the nice slippers B.J got ME!)

but AIK, just got a message from her, saying that she's coming back. Must be because my mum was worrying over her NTUC card which was still with that Tantor Dua Saat and the rest of us were feeling sad and heavy-hearted about her going off. With my sister gone, it truly feels like the holidays are over.

What Tina said when I told her that I finally feel that I miss Dubai, after 6 months; "Yeah sey. In Dubai, it was a HUNDRED PERCENT holiday mood/feeling." Totally dude....*nods wisely*

Anyways, no more need to be upset since that Siti Payung is coming back, along with Mak's precious NTUC card. And HEY, I switched on MJ12, cos actually MJ12 always makes me feel like the times when my sister is back so we can continue listening to that! And then tmr, if her flight isn't so bloody early, I will go to the airport. I WILL. I think. I need to send Darlia to the vet, she looks sick. My poor kittycat.
