Yay! I just finished my petai dinner. It feels SOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD to taste petai again ok. It's been so long since i last ate it man! I dunno why people don't like petai lah, its so darn delicious! The other day I made a big fuss when my mom tapau-ed chap fan for me and i discovered she took the sambal petai ikan bilis but she only tapau-ed the ikan bilis and left the petai out. So i asked her why. Then guess what she said!! She said "you know inside petai got worms wan onot. So dirty." Like, wt-!! I think she felt a little guilty for depriving me of life's little pleasures, especially since my finals practically chewed up my entire brain today, so she cooked petai, meticulously peeled and sifted through to ensure no worms stay inside any of the green biji. How sweet! =)

Thank god I have no class tomorrow. I can just imagine what will happen when i fart. hahaha! "yeee why so smelly wan? Who farted?!" Then I'll play along also. *sniffs air* "eh yalah, so smelly! Who farted arh?!" Inside my heart I'll be like, "please please, please don't say it's me..." Now girls, don't laugh ok. That's what u all do when u fart and people complain it's smelly right! Harh! XD

Finals was CRAP man. I so so so regret studying my butt off, cos seriously, nothing from the textbook went into my brain. It wouldn't have made a difference if I didnt study anyway, cos I'd still screw up. Baaaaabi. I only slept four hours cos of the stupid finals, deprived myself of my nap yesterday, draaaaaaaged(literally) my body out of bed at 6 in the morning, MADE myself stay awake in the car to study. And then i discovered it was all in vain. I was seriously so tired man. And then I look at the questions and I wanted to kick myself...

"what is a gag rule?"

How should I know lah! Maybe when i die and go to heaven I'll ask God lah. haha. But at least I came up with some nonsense lah. U know what Carina wrote?

"A gag rule is a gag rule."

HAHAHHAAHHAH! She makes my day man. The worse thing that could happen is when u know you've read it somewhere but you just cannot remember anything. Might as well not study in the first place right. Waste my precious sleep time. Babi. And that was only one question ok. It's the only question I can remember lah. The rest are all some mumblejumbletumble about who-knows-what. Mind you, MASS COMM IS NOT FOR STUPID PEOPLE OK!!!!

SO. finals over and done with, I'll be sleeping my butt off tonight. Tomorrow I shall plonk my butt down here and do nothing beisdes watching Prison Break and maybe read Tuesdays with Morrie after that. I can't wait to just rot away. I've been too smart for my own good. Hngh. Smart. Think you study so much means smart lah huh!!

Yesterday was the last day of class for this semester. And boy I had fun! Jessthehotchick did my hair!!! See how pretty I look! ;p hehehe. Ok don't mind Jshakey boy and poser Carina in the background. Focus on the HAIR lah, the HAIR!! So nice right! haha.I was actually contemplating whether to cut my hair, cos I needed a change. But after she made it so nice and pweeetty, I decided not to lah. Lagipun each time I cut my hair it always turns out BAAAD. Maybe I should change hairdresser lah...

Me and Jess, The French Braids!!
***
Roshan the rapperboy. The day before yesterday he made me take the Mensa test together with him. God knows why amidst all the stress of completing assignments and meeting datelines he can be thinking of taking an IQ test, but I suppose he knows he's damn smart, so he buat macho all wanna compete with me lah. haha. And he won. Those who get 19 questions and above right are considered geniuses. He got 25 man!! Out of 33 i think. Blazing Genius larh. Who says rappers can't be geniuses huh? ;p


Don't F! with the Ktownclan uh huh...everybody loves the gingerbread man the gingerbread man... hahaha...

Look at his shirt lah. Perasan case to the max man.

***

Hana and Ruki! They're super loud, which is why the class is so quiet without them around.
Hana!

Our masterpiece, created in less than an hour. We were really bored lah ok.***

Me and my girls. Love them to bits!***

Janey Jane Jane and Carina the obscene***

Carina is awesome. She lights up my days and makes me hyper. She tells me stupid stories and makes me laugh until stomach pain. And she taught me how to Mwah Mwah ;p hahaha...

***

Ravin the barbie doll...




***

Transformers!!


***

Connie the horny...hehe...


***

Jess and Kimi the sticker queen.

***

Jshakey boy. HE. HE. With him around, no way you cannot laugh. He's so damn funny, not because he tells jokes or attempts to be lame, but he's just FUNNY in everything he does without even having to try, like wearing a tie, or doing his hair in class, or wearing his hardy boots, or wearing torn jeans, or the way he speaks english, or the way he hams it up for the camera, or the way he wipes his sweat with tissue. Aiyoh! Damn funny guy lah. Major goofball is he. haha...

*****

And so, one entire semester has passed just like that. It's been two months and it feels like it's barely been a month! I can remember how I didnt really like my class at first. Now I look forward to meeting them everyday. My class rox! Plus, my assignments are all DONE babehh! wohooooooo!! Can't wait for next sem!

Aiyo I've got finals on Monday. 17 chapters to study for the next 3 days. Die lah.

oh my goodness. I know this is pure evil, but I just can't resist this. This is a thesis written by my classmate. Laugh your lungs out!!!
(JANE! You know who right! Don't tell arh!! hahahhahaha This is for YOUR benefit ok!!)

Thesis

Being it the first date and the girl being the girl I wished and dreamed for, I’ve made plans to ensure the date goes on great and also make sure that this would be a wonderful and unforgettable date for her. Firstly, my plan is to take her to a nice dinner, then surprise her with tickets to a movie and lastly, to end the night with some late night coffee and little talks.

Topic sentence

Firstly take her to a nice dinner

- I was nervous, kind of shy

- We talk for a bit, get to know more about each other

- Told her that I am attracted to her, and I can also feel that she is attracted to me

Secondly surprise her with tickets to movie

- I was anxious

- Bought her some snacks

- I was cold, so she offered to lend me her jacket

- We ended up sharing the jacket

Finally some late night coffee and little talk

- Talk about the movie

- Tell each other how good it was and how cold it was

- Asked her what she think about me

- Telling her what a great time I am having

Conclusion

It was a long night and I felt great, not even a single bit of tiredness. She sat beside me in the car while I was sending her home, suddenly I felt a bit awkward because it was just pure silent in the car. While I was nearing her house I really wanted to tell her something, but I don’t have the courage to do it. And there it was her front door, its not easy for me to say good bye, because we had so much fun and I am really looking forward to go out with her again. Suddenly she reach towards me and whispered to me said that she had a great time, my cheeks were tightening and I felt blood rushing towards my head. And there she ended an awesome night with a kiss on my cheek.


So funny lar! I feel like such a sinner doing this. I'm supposed to help him polish it up. haha. Nvm nvm. He doesn't know about this blog. Shhhhh....

ok, this is going to be another complain post, so you don't have to read if you don't want to =)

These few days have just been crap for me and my family (my dad specifically). Most of you know I lost my handbag in church on Sunday. You know it's ironic how things don't happen when you want them to and happen when you don't want them to. Not that I have ever wanted my bag to be stolen, but the thing is, I normally take my IC out and keep it at home. It just so happens I went for driving test on Friday and left my IC in my wallet. And it JUST SO HAPPENED that my bag got stolen when my IC was in my bag. My mom knows best lah, she's always asking me to take my IC out. Should have been more attentive to her hoh =( It's like, grrrr. When u are careful not to carry your IC around, the bag doesn't get stolen, and just when it is in your bag, whaddya know!

Then yesterday my dad rammed his car into a tiang after washing it at the car wash. So ok nvm, send for repair. Then he went to the wrong tuition centre at night to fetch my sister. This morning he went to withdraw money at the ATM and the machine sucked his card inside (like, wth!) He had to go to the bank and yada yada yada. THEN, just now my neighbour banged the side of my dad's car AGAIN, so now it has another dent and he has to repair it AGAIN.

Spiritual attack kau kau man. Even my dad says things have been happening a lot lately, not just in our family, but also among cell members. Gosh. End times? Scary lah. Oh and of course, I have so many many assignments to do. That one also spiritual attack you know! XD

Friday, July 13, 2007

Hahah. Why did I ever expect to pass my driving test without bribing? I mean I was seriously praying and hoping for a miracle, cos it takes nothing short of a miracle to pass your driving test in Malaysia the first time round without bribing the dumbass JPJ fellas. Well, looks like it didn't work. Not that the prayers didn't work, cos I passed my bukit and parking in less than 5 minutes after waiting for 2 hours, in true Malaysian style, to take the test *rolls eyes*, but well, like I said, it takes a miracle to pass the roadtest and I didn't pray for a miracle. But thanks anyway for those who prayed for me. You are really appreciated! And thank you Jesus for helping me to pass parking.

OK, the introductory paragraph over and done with, it's time to start griping. What's a blog for if not to complain right ;p

First things first, the JPJ fellas are just plain rude and downright despicable. They think they're what? Kings of the world just because they have the power to dictate whether or not we get our license? Can you at least show some respect for your fellow human beings arh?! I know lah you malas to layan the 101 selamat pagi greetings and the suckingup-ness and all, but at least not be so RUDE can onot?! The guy practically rolled his eyes and let out an audible shut-up-and-just-start-driving-lah sigh when i said selamat pagi. And then when I asked him whether I could start now he just stared and sighed again. Gawd. What is his prob lah?! Why are all the m-fellas in the government department all liddat wan ah? They're either super lazy and can't even be bothered to open their mouths to answer your question, or they're just super duper barbaric and they'll snap at you for no reason other than the fact that you're at their mercy. The stupid woman in the IC department oso liddat. Makes you wanna, UURGH! Twist their heads and yank it outta their necks you know. Then the whole time I was driving he'd go "tsk tsk tsk". Then at the end he condescendingly told me all my mistakes, blah blah blah blah blah. Like my driving was really THAAAT bad. My friend mati enjin at the roundabout and he passed her cos she bribed. Me? i didn't mati enjin at all ok. aiyah whatever lah. Malas wanna rant about what is hard to change in this freaking country.

Sometimes I do feel shitty, like a hypocrite. In church we pray for our nation and we thank God for all his blessings on this nation and we sing save Malaysia and the national anthem and all of a sudden you feel so patriotic, and yet after that I'll just continue bitching about this country to anyone who would listen. I honestly, truly thank God for Malaysia lah, I mean, just look around. You've got to admit that Malaysia, with all its flaws, is not really that bad a place to live in. (I was gonna say one of the best places to live in, but then i think twice...hmmm...no lah. haha) No wars, no natural disasters, awesome durians, too Islam to be bombed by al-Qaeda... And yet, the M-fellas are the ones who tarnish this nation's reputation and quality of life. They are just so darn spoonfed, which isn't exactly a problem if they'd at least appreciate it and be nice to their fellow countrymen. But the thing is they think they OWN this nation and they do whatever they like because they get paid anyway at the end of the month. No, actually, they DON't do anything at all because they get paid anyway. Why bother right? *rolls eyes* They just can't be bothered to be productive lah. AAAND they are so damn corrupted it makes you wonder what exactly their religion teaches. To be spoonfed is one thing, to be plain out lazy and to take their superiority for granted is another thing. So irritating you know onot. But all this doesn't justify bitching about my country and the M-fellas lah. Jesus loves them also, and that's what we should do too. It's just, hard. You know what I'm saying?

But anyway...this pak cik who was organising the cars and all actually brightened up my day by praising me. He went :"wahh...you good arh! You're the most truthful one here today. Didn't bribe. Good good. I'll let you pass parking ok!" Then he gave me a wide, toothy grin. (see?? Not bribing is a bribe in itself! Hahahah) I damn kembang after that. Especially cos he said it in front of the rows of people who were queing up also. Which makes me think not ALL of them are corrupt lah you know. There are still redeemers of their race out there. AAND and and and, I really really REALLY wanna thank god for helping me meet a new friend whom I could talk to throughout the 2 hours of waiting. I cannot for the life of me imagine sitting down there with the stress and heat and all for 2 hours with nothing to do. Thank GOD i met someone whom I could talk to and who was on the same wavelength with me. It's awesome when u meet random people at random places and then u just start chatting away like you've known each other for ages. Of course, you have to be on the same wavelength lah. I knew more about here in that 2 hours than I do about some of my classmates. Amazing isn't it. Thank God for her. (Her name is Vin Vin by the way. So cute right. haha. And NO! she's not a lala mui!! ;p) I would have died there man. Summore I didn't bring a book. Note to self: MAKE SURE YOU BRING JANE EYRE NEXT WEEK!!

So that was my day. We really really do need to pray for this nation. More than anything else. Especially since it's the rainbow nation of SEA (SEA right? Not the world right??) I beleive that things will change lah. We just have to press in and have faith. Besides, I'm sure we're not the only corrupt nation lah. It just makes it all the worse that you're here and you see it happening and you can't do anything to change it. But in all reality, it happens the world over lah you know. So we gotta be thankful for this nation. And stop bitching about Malaysia and the M-fellas. hehe.

Quote of the day: Not bribing is a bribe in itself!! XD

I just got off a 2 hour chat with May. She's one heck of a cousin ok. Like I never even knew I could talk about stuff like that with her, or anyone for that matter. Stuff I've never told anyone. Gosh, it was just liberating knowing she could relate to me. When u got family probs, you turn to family, cos family knows best! ;p We're wired same, and I'm so so so glad we're cousins!! I don't know if anyone else can relate. They'll just go, "yeah yeah, i understand. Why don't you pray about it" and all that, BUT, when u talk to family, they just understand, deep down inside.

May!! I want more counselling and emo talk next CNY k, besides Jonker Street and Mahkota Parade (oooohh! Can't wait for the shopping!!) And I'll TRY to put your advice into practice. gotta learn from you lah. You've had more salt than me. And you learnt how to unwire the wires. You're one heck of a wireman lah. hehe. Seriously, i love you to micromininanobits!!! You rock the smelliest of my smelliest socks!! *mwah! mwah!* =)
You know I feel I'm getting more and more shallow.

According to www.wikipedia.com, "somebody who appears superficial, naive, materialistic, petty, or unimaginative is likely to be denounced as shallow, although simply lacking intelligence is not a criterion on its own; a number of people called shallow may have relatively high intelligence, but may be concerned with aspects of life that are superficial. Lacking an interest in knowledge or intellectual pursuits may be regarded as a more likely criterion for "shallowness" than one's capacity to obtain and recall such knowledge. On some occasions, shallow people may be regarded as being inclined to discuss controversial or philosophical issues, even though they themselves may lack developed opinions toward them or even an understanding of such concepts, simply to give a surface impression of intelligence."

Yeah I know, how pathetic to be wikipediaing a shallow word right, pardon the pun. But my fellow miss peggy students, the above definition proves that I know how to do in-text citation ok. And I have high intelligence even though I'm shallow. Because I know how to use Wikipedia. Proves that MY kind of shallow is not the Paris Hilton kind of shallow ok. hehehe.

I was just thinking of the right word to describe how I've been feeling lately, you know, the whole brain drain thing? And i think no word describes it better than shallow. For some reason lah, it's just like i've been spending a lot of time on the mundane stuff and getting all worked up about it. And I've been allowing myself to be influenced by other people's emoness. ANNNND I have not been imaginative langsung. Gone were the days when i could write about anything including a freakin cockroach and make it sound interesting. Now I just sit and rant about not being able to rant excitingly. But then again, maybe I had more time and space then. Ever since coll started I've been feeling disoriented. I don't even know how to describe it. It's like, my life doesn't tally up lah. Weekdays I'm in coll and i breathe in cigarette smoke sometimes and hear the F word all the time and eat roti bakar every other day. Sometimes i wonder why I even bother going to college for classes since it seems to me I'm not paying attention in class at all and I'm just going there to hang out and talk crap with a bunch of people who, admittedly, light up my day. And then weekends it's back to church where I've grown up all my life and have grown accustomed to. Yet somehow I just feel jaded in church, like there's nothing new, no excitement, same old comfort zone. It just feels all weird, like my life has two segments and it's just not gelling. Somehow I've allowed the excitement of coll to seep into my life and affect the "unexciting" weekends. Wassap with that man? Maybe it's the initial stages of coll life lah. Culture shock? I dunno what it is, but i really hope my life balances itself up. No, not by my own strength. I need God to help me balance it up. That's the only way out. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit," says the Lord.

And then there's the whole issue of time, or the lack thereof. I honestly wonder how people can be so busy with assingments and whatnot, and still manage to find time to do other stuff like READ. I've got books piling up on my desk I'm telling you. I desperately wanna read, and yet I just can't seem to fit it in my schedule. Jane Eyre has been in my bag for months and it's starting to look like kiam chai. And then there's watching DVDs and movies. I have the entire season one of prison break sitting there laying eggs. (oh Titus if you're reading this I got it d, and it's ORI summor ok! ;p) And yet, you wonder, how could I possibly be blogging here while complaining there's no time right? *rolls eyes* I think I know where all the time went. Oh the irony of this post! And did I mention I haven't done the power point presentation? And if you read the posts before this and you're wondering whether i've completed all my assignments the answer is a flat out NO.

On another note, I just found out that Siew Leng has accepted Christ! There is no greater joy than to see one of your bestest buddies whom you've been praying for saved. Thank you Jesus!!

This is the longest post I've done in a long time. Amazing what shallowness can do to you.

ok JAAAAAANE , I'm gonna do a free writing post oso k ;p

We did free writing in class today and it was so...free I ended up writing nonsense, just like what I'm doing now. My assignment is due on Friday but I've gotta hand it in one day earlier than everyone else. WHY? because i have drving test and won't be coming to class. On Friday the 13th summor. iik. Who cares lah right. I'm an awesome driver and awesome drivers pass no matter what date they take it on. Why is everyone falling sick? Class was comparatively quieter today because Ruki and Hana are sick. And the 3 musketeers at the back ended up making the most noise. I think I know how to use power point. One U rocks my smelliest socks lah. And I need to stop this! I'm supposed to be doing my assignment, not talking crap here. So bubbye.

Thursday, July 5, 2007

OK, you know how a few weeks ago I said KDU wasn't happening? Forget I ever said that. College is so the happening lah i tell you. We get to hang out at OneU all the time and watch transformers with the plush seats and great company and tapau-ed pineapple juice. Unlike the, ehem, Subang ppl who only ever get to hang out at Asia cafe (teeheehee...)

I just opened my mail and discovered I've got assignments due in a week. Like, WHAT!!! I've been idle for 6 months and all of a sudden I've got presentations, assignments, mind maps, essays, group work all due in the next 3 weeks. How the heck am I supposed to cope with all that? My brain is rusty you know. I need lubricants... hahahhaa. Transformers is so funny larh.

But aside from the work, I'm really thankful for the friends I've met. Proves that we really need to take the time to get to know people before passing judgment. I do think I'm starting to see the world for what it raelly is, not the whole clean-cut, goody goody, holy holy, no smoke no alcohol no coming back late thing I've experienced all my life in high school. I'm not saying i wished it was not all that, because I'm forever grateful to God that I was brought up the way I was and I was never exposed to negative influences at a young age, but no matter how well you've been brought up and how you try to detach yourself from all these negative influences, at some point in life you're gonna have to face the real world wat right onot. You're gonna have to snap out of this bubble and realise that, hey, YOU ARE IN THE WORLD man, things are happening all around you, and you can't forever run away from it, u know what I'm saying? You just have to know what your principles are and stick to it no matter what. I realise that people can seem all punk rock and emo and broody on the outside, but inside they're just really nice people. There are people who are celebs but just so down to earth they remind you of your cousin brother (not like i have a very close cousin brother, haha, but they remind me of cousin brothers lah) And then there are people who are just confident and happy and don't really care what people think or say about them, which i really admire them for. And I'm also really thankful for the grounded ones, the girls especially, who keep me grounded along with them. Honestly, my class rocks to the max lah, aside from the puffs of second hand smoke I've been breathing in lately. I hope I don't get lung cancer. iik.

Tuesday, July 3, 2007

You know I really hate it when inspiration strikes and I'm not able to blog cos my stupid telephone line is not working and streamyx doesn't work. And then when they finally come and repair it the inspiration is gone, and i always end up typing nonsense on my blog... *rolls eyes* But I've gotta say, TM's service has improved tremendously. You remember the days when you had to call them 10 times before they actually figure out they've got a house to go to to repair the line? Nowadays you just give them a call, and the technician actually calls back to confirm the time and he's not only on time, but he's even early! Gosh. That's a miracle considering we're talking Malaysia here.

Anyway, I had so much fun on saturday for sleepover at pearly's. I have always appreciated the sixers lah, but seeing them again after sooooooooooooo long just made me appreciate them even more. It was priceless. Absence makes the heart grow fonder eh. Shanmin I'll post the pics up soon when I'm not too lazy(you know me well enough to know I'll always say that don't you? hehe.) Plus, i got my superly belated birthday gift. HAH! I knew it! You ppl love me so much you couldn't possibly NOT get me something! ;p

Also, Siyan's back!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome back to durian land babe!! I missed you loadssss!! Can't wait to meet up and give you slimming tips!! ahhahahahaa.... ;p
