Tired

Has anyone noticed how long this week has been? It's driving me crazy. It seems like it never wants to end. Last week flew by in a blink of an eye, but why did it not happen again this week? Sigh. I want the weekend, BADLY. I know it's a day away but still. Oh well, I guess I'mma have to do 1 more day till the WEEKEND!

Glee

When I first heard of this show a few months ago, I was like, are producers whack? Are they going out of their minds? What on earth? Another High School Musical? BUT, now its a weekly show? Oh boy, this would be interesting, I thought. You see, I despise anything High School Musical. Nope, I am not bias or anything like that, I watched it alright, but just didn't like it. To make matters worse, I had no idea what the purpose of the third installment was for to be honest.

Anyway, back to GLEE. When I first heard that Starworld was to be broadcasting it in January, I was like hmm, I shall give it a try and deliberate after. So I did watch the first episode (though months after it first debut in the states), and my thoughts? It's quite nice actually! Haha. In fact, I've been watching the show online now since I know I wouldn't have time to pluck my butt every Wednesday to watch a show. I have better things to do you know, ie: college related anything. So I give this show a thumbs up and if you ever want to give it a try, I think you may like it!

Good Day

Today was perhaps THE best day I had in weeks. Was a pretty productive one too. Began with the usual stuck-in-traffic-in-the-morning, always just making it in time for class and listening to class lectures. Basically, a typical morning. The fun really started after class. I had asked a few friends (Dre & Ikhsan) for a movie late last night and as impulsive as it may have sound, they were in. And so I was set. I really needed a movie. Been quite a while since I went without one.

So, after classes ended, I asked the friends if they wanted to go already, grab a bite at Pyramid. After a full 15 minutes of doing absolutely nothing standing in the hallways of ADP thinking what to do next, we left the 12th floor (about time we did!). We all left in one car (car pooling is the way of the future!). As usual, I called shotgun, waaaaaaaaay before 'someone else' did. I was actually willing to give my seat away but the 'kind soul' decided to be seated in the back anyway. Oh well. We arrived Pyramid the and found parking space without a hassle. We decided to watch Legion as it was the hype-of-the-moment movie and as soon as we got movie tickets, we headed straight for lunch. Nando's was my suggestion and we went with it. Nando's, satisfaction guaranteed! After that, I went with Ikhsan to the mosque opposite the road for Friday prayers. We sort of had to leave Dre alone but he decided to keep himself busy by doing what else, SHOPPING.


After prayers was done, we met up with Dre and headed for a store known for its quality wear to check out what's on sale. I found a PERFECT pair of jeans. Tried it on, but it wasn't my size. Was a tad snug (I ain't getting fat am I?!!!!!!). FML. I decided it wasn't wise to purchase it. Dre on the other hand spent almost 40 minutes trying to make his mind on whether to purchase the items he tried on. In the end, he purchased them. Oh boy, have I made my friends shopaholics? Hopefully I did not! Heh. We then went for the movie. I decided to call it an OK movie. Was HILARIOUS. As weird as it may sound, I found it a little too funny. Some people actually thought it was creepy. OK, it WAS a little creepy. I couldn't make me stop laughing though. Oh yeah Paul Bettany is cool! I wish I had a voice like his. Haha.

The funniest thing that happened that evening was Dre's parking incident. Trust me if you were in the car, you'd pee your pants. I laughed so hard sans the peeing though cause I'm a pro laugh-er. Hehe. Below is the recap of what actually happened. If you're smart, you'd understand it. Too funny. I couldn't even tell the story holding my laugh. We went to the library and met up with Evone. I was laughing non stop telling her the story. I teared up even! Good times with Dre, as always. Hoping for more good times with more awesome people in the future.

This was Dre's parking incident. Try to decipher it. It's way too funny. Excuse me for the (lame) drawing. It was done with Microsoft Word Paint. What did you expect? Heh.

Port Dickson

Last weekend, my family and I went for a weekend getaway. As usual, papa made an impulsive decision and told us we should go to PD hours before the day of. Thank goodness it was just 1 night so packing was minimal. If he impulsively makes his decision to go somewhere for a week and tells us the night before, that would be interesting wouldn't it? Anyway these are some snapshots I took. Not of best quality as I don't have a DSLR... YET, but I think my point-and-shoot camera is still trustworthy (though 3, maybe 4 years old!). A DSLR would be a major upgrade though. Papa get me one please!

We stayed here. The hotel is sweet!

Private swimming pools?! OMG! They call them 'water homes'.

Normal 'water chalets'.

Our tub. Used the most by youngest sister.

See what I mean? We did not have a reservation so we had no choice but to stay in the normal hotel room. Papa says next time he's gonna book the 'water home', the one with the PRIVATE swimming pools! I NEVER knew these types of rooms existed, in Malaysia, moreover Port Dickson!

Nope, you aren't seeing things. Apparently Antarctica was nearby.

The beautiful sunset.

Sunset from room balcony.

People fishing for something.

The huge red ship.

I am going to refrain from uploading pictures with us in this post for privacy reasons, as you know that anyone can access blogs. We did have fun though. Hope to go for another weekend getaway soon!

I Don't Care

I have to stop caring. This feeling of hate is getting unhealthy. That's it. I shall stop caring. No more emo-ing or getting depressed. Who cares if the person is a hypocrite? Who cares if the person is an arrogant fool? Who cares if the person is a disgusting pig? I DON'T CARE anymore. I know my problems won't go away but I noticed it has been affecting my life and that ain't gonna happen anymore. Who cares about the idiotic moronic brainless piece of... I know I don't, at least anymore. I' m tired of caring to much and I need to live my life. Sorry for the past 2 weeks people. I know I've been cold. Now, I shall reboot and be my ordinary, normal self. Thank you.

The First Week

This week was the start of my F-O-U-R-T-H semester as a college student. It seems like only last month I started this battle and miraculously, a year has passed so now, I'm a Sophomore. Cool? I guess. We get to bully the Freshies (jkjk!). So what do I think of this semester? A LOT of familiar faces have left (for The States) and after this semester, even more will leave. So this semester will be bittersweet, and we have to ensure we make the most of it. I have to wait till next year to fly, and I can't wait. I have been anticipating that moment ever since stepping in ADP.

This semester started a little rocky. I knew this was bound to happen as I had a whole lot of thinking to do about my Calculus and see whether I should or not retake the subject. It was the most painful week-before-college I had by far because the schedule I preregistered for will be useless if I plan of retaking the course. After thinking looooooooooooooooooong and hard, I decided I should, for the better. My GPA was OK, didn't dip into the danger zone yet. Was still up there in the three pointers but I decided I wanted to improve. You see, I did not fail the class, I was just so unsatisfied about my grade. I had the hardest time editing my schedule for this semester considering the probability of full classes, hence me not getting a spot. I made like F-O-U-R different schedules which was quite useless as I entered my desired classes HASSLE FREE. All that brain juice squeezed out...for nothing. FML.

Then the drama unfolded. This is totally classified a.k.a top secret a.k.a I-can't-tell-you-even-if-my-life-depended-on-it, kind of drama so we shall stop here. Going through this and college was quite challenging. This situation just baffles me at times. However, I shall stop complaining/sulking/emo-ing/depress-ing/sad-ing and all the other things in that direction. I need to focus on this semester. My application depends on it, my life depends on it. The antidote? Chris Brown's 'Crawl' playing on replay. I heard this song for more than 47 48 times already today. It is a beautiful song, in my opinion. That and also praying to God for guidance and direction. Don't forget that, no matter what your religion is people.

Highlights of the week include my Interpersonal Communications class. It's pretty darn fun! Perhaps the most interactive class of the semester. Thanks to Andre for telling me this class will be awesome.

Before I kill you of boredom (hey, I AM an amateur writer), I shall stop here. More of this to come.

'If we crawl 'til we can walk again,
Then well run until we're strong enough to jump,
Then we'll fly until there is no wind,
So lets crawl...crawl...crawl...'

Have you ever?

Have you ever been in that situation when you really need to talk to somebody but you know you can't because it will make the situation more complicated, but if you don't, it will eat you on the inside? Well, I'm facing this right now. Bottom line, I can't tell a single soul. So, I'm sorry if I'm no longer my normal, cheerful self. God, help me go through this hard time. I need it so much, especially now. Thank you.

Bittersweet Winter

It was actually quite hard for me getting back on this whole Internet networking business again. I don't know, it's just been hard for me. People would (normally) log on every single day (or minute) to Facebook or blog about everyday thoughts more during the holidays, but no me. It was a bittersweet winter break like the title suggests.

Let me start by saying my holiday started with a BANG (no, literally). One tailgating car just crashed into me 40 (yep, F-O-R-T-Y) minutes before my Psychology finals. I was sure I was doomed. Shaken up from the incident, I witnessed how my car just got a minor dent on the bumper and the Toyota Avanza that crashed into me (yes, AN MPV folks) wrecked. The bonnet was crumpled and even the radiator leaked, hence the car couldn't even move anymore. How ironic, as I did name my car The FiTT Machine. Heh. I took this hard on myself, to the extent that I told myself I was not going to drive for the rest of my life. Yeah ,that and frantically calling my dad to hire a driver to chauffeur me to college. That would be sweet no? Anyway, my mother, sister AND brother came; mom and bro took care of the wreck; sis took me to college for the final paper. Obviously my brain was still functioning a little that I called Reb to tell the lecturer I was going to be late. Indeed I was, 15 minutes in fact. Things went downhill from there. I couldn't think. No more brain juices could help me. I kept thinking about the car. 'Oh well, I might as well just complete it. I was doing pretty well in it anyway, how bad could I get?', I thought to myself. So, I finished it, my heart a little heavy to hand in the paper, but I did. Fast forward a couple hours later, a police report made, and an hour (or two) sulking, I was getting ready for the planned birthday dinner at Tony Roma's at Pavilion KL. Obviously due to the crash, this did not happen so my dad switched the birthday dinner venue to Coca, Subang Parade. I got news that my dad would just meet me there and that's when I freaked. Did I have to drive, ALREADY? A few minutes later, I was at the wheel of the much larger family car of ours driving to Subang Parade. FML. Heh.

I got much better after a couple of days and got the news of a job as a student helper. Of course I was interested! Money ($$$$$$) was involved here people! OKOK, don't get me wrong here, but I was really bored at home and plus a little extra cash would go a long way with me. So I did the 3 day stint. It was pretty boring for the most part but I didn't mind. Worked with great friends, Andre and So Imm. Thanks guys.

WAIT!!! REWIND!! OK, a day before work started, I got to know of my final results. BAD BAD BAD I tell you! CGPA skydived. Even more bad news for me. I didn't talk to ANYONE on that day. To make things worse, the day actually started off great! We (sis, bro in law, mom) were doing some shopping in conjunction with the Christmas sale. When I got news of the results being out, my mood just died I guess. I ended up getting nothing.

Anyway, enough of the sad news. Good times during this winter break:

1. Celebrating my dad's birthday, my birthday, my sister's birthday, my brother's birthday AND my mom's birthday with my family. Mind you, all these celebrations happened on different dates and at different places. Now that's what I call celebration people!

2. Celebrating my birthday with friends. Thanks guys!

3. Helped out Dre get brand spanking new shoes. Let me tell you, it was a bargain considering it was quite a well known brand.

4. SHOPPING. 'Nuff said.

5. New years eve with family. I know how perhaps loser-ish this may sound, but that just the way I roll. See, my mom's birthday is on the 31st December so we ALWAYS celebrate EVERY year. Well, look at the fireworks show we put for the whole Malaysia to see (jkjkjk). But yeah, family is one of the most important things to me.

6. Ice cream cake! OMG to good to be true! And this past winter we got 2 of em'. One for my birthday and one for my younger sis' birthday! Baskin Robbins yum yum!

7. AVATAR. Perhaps THE most epic movie of 2009. Amazing film. Ask anyone.

8. Sherlock Holmes. Robert Downey Jr., Rachael McAdams and Jude Law. Three great actors equals one great movie.

9. My friends. ALL of you have been amazing. Let's continue this friendship forever and ever and ever and ever and ever...

10. Dad opening a car wash business. It may sound funny but it was quite fun doing all the cleaning up of the place. And yes we are open! Go to Gombak to get your car washed OK? Hehe, that is if you want to. We just opened for a week. So far, its been good, Alhamdulillah.

So, I am officially back on this blog and Facebook. I might not log in as regularly as I used to but I will log on every other day or two. Not as bad as 3 weeks once right? Hehe. OK, send me some love. Cheers!
