Do me a favourand break my heart

Not that it's hard.. I believe hopeful-cynics tend to get their hearts break the easiest. All you have to do is plant that seed and their own doubts in their heads will do the rest!
Oh wait.. did I just gave out the formula to break my heart? Oh well...

I've been addicted to Shayne Ward's If That's OK With You and Aly & AJ's Potential Breakup Song these past couple of days. Also.. Timbaland's Way I Are.
Obviously I haven't got anything much worth reading here, yeah? heh. But really... Aly & AJ's song is really really addictive! Love the catchy tune.

It's time like this.. when I get too much time in my hands.. or get left alone for too long, I'd always think of the strangers I've ever met in my life.
And I can't help it.. the first person I would think of was always Manir. He wasn't even the first stranger I've ever met, but he was definitely the best conversationalist among all. Indian, in his 50s, Aries. Really amazing person. He only initiated to comment on the neatness of my writing. heh. I don't reckon that he ever thought I was writing so I could avoid talking to strangers; expecting them to leave me alone. Glad that he didn't.

Some days I wish that I stayed on that train and continued our discussions about feng shui, horoscopes and religion. Just.. how amazing is THAT?? To talk to a perfect stranger about religion! No small talks there, my friends. Simply spiritual and philosophical topics please. (Now don't I sound like a snob? haha!)
Sometimes I feel like getting on the train in hopes of meeting him again. I used to have his picture in my/Dida's PDA but since it's gone nuts.. I've lost Manir. Well, just his picture. To be honest, I think his face is kind of cemented on my brain. What can I say.. Manir was the PERFECT stranger.

To have something in common with a friend is.. easy.
To have something in common with a stranger... what are the odds to that?

If there is anything I am most thankful of.. (mind, I should make a long list of it 'cause I'm grateful for a bunch of things!) it's that even though I wasn't born or made to be an exceptionally extroverted person, at least those who are had found my looks to be welcoming enough for them to strike up a conversation.
Maybe James Morrison was right.. they just seem to know who to talk to. It is odd when there's a roomful of people and somehow you're the one singled out -- but thankfully, I have no problem being singled out. heh.

Oooh!! Nina got a promotion yesterday which meant a big pay rise -- awesome!! Chilli's! Chilli's! Chilli's!! hahahahha! Damn, now I'm hankering for their Molten Chocolate Cake! -- and I'm not even that big of a fan of chocolate! grr.
Anyway, congrats Ninaaa! (If ever she comes across this.)

Of course, now that Nina's making big bucks, Mama had asked me when am I going to find a job. Way to go to spoil my mood, Ma! whoopee! *sarcastically*
Ohh, also.. The Magpies lost to Arsenal. bluergghh. It's embarassing because Arsenal was using their younger players while Newcastle was playing with their first team! I'm irked! Especially since currently, Coventry had scored against Man U. hahhahahaha!! (This is the NECESSARY laugh to keep myself from cursing. I think I need to do that a lot tonight.)

My darling rubbish...

You know, I've been spending too much time being bored lately.
I should be doing something better with my time. (Apart from finishing the books I'm currently reading -- A Place Called Here; isn't very gripping so far. I'm disappointed.)

I should write -- NO. (hahhahahaha!!)

I think I'm going to complete my travel journal later today and upload some pictures to my older blog entries! *faking a cheer of excitement!*
(Just the sound of those are actually.. boring me already.)

I'll write again when I see fit.

According to Wanie...

What to be among life's greatest mysteries;

Arjen Robben and Jose Reina are respectively aged 23 and 25..
Unless somebody tells me that they're racers during their free time (which would require them to wear helmets a lot!) I have to say that they're just TOO YOUNG to start losing that much hair.

hahhaha! I'm sorry.. I had planned of having a couple of "mysteries" but nooo.. I'm not too curious about anything else apparently. Okay, that's BULL. A day without questions would be.. EXCELLENT but I wasn't made for that, I've accepted it a long time ago. My point: just because I have questions, doesn't mean that I need to ask them, do I? Plus, it would completely ruin my pledge to not reveal too much of myself on this blog. hahha! (We all know that my incapability of holding a real promise is making me look like a pathological liar right about now.)

Recently I've realized that the more somebody says about love, the more I feel the need to leave. I know that doesn't sound right, but it's how I feel. I'm not saying that talks of love suffocates-me-so-I-must-run, it's.. when somebody talks about the dream it is to be in love, I'd feel like the world becomes larger.
I should be wandering out there. Heck, I should roam the universe! Finding MY true love... what ever that is. (sigh. All those astrology would've been a bunch of crap if I hadn't been such a restless soul to begin with.)

I just realized how upsetting it is to know that there is NOTHING or NO ONE that could make me STICK to ANYTHING. The weirdest thing; I've always wanted to pack my bag and leave without saying a single word to anyone. So I always wonder, don't I care for my family to have constantly thought of this?
Maybe I'm just a horrible person. It's easier to admit that than to psychoanalize myself again.

Maan, it's going to be October real soon. *this is the part where I curse*

Het is Maandag

Professional writers would suggest, "write like you talk".
Well, I write like I think; unnecessary, a little crazy, not particularly smart and seemingly never-ending.

I slept the entire day on Saturday, it's horrendous! I can't remember if I ever slept for an entire day before. I wasn't really sleepy as I was physically tired, I suppose. I had been out and about since early morning the day before, and had no sleep until around seven when I got a few minutes of shut eye.
Anyway, I found out that I'm easily saddened when I'm tired. Not particularly depressed or anything, just... blue.

It was a very social Friday;
I met up the Beasties for a bit, hung around with Dayat at KL Central, met up with Ana a little after Dayat had left, went to Pavillion and also read some books at the Borders store in Berjaya Times Square, get Dida to pick us up at 10-ish despite that she was with Kak Kole and Kak Freddy, sent Ana back to Damansara, went to Cathay Cineplex and saw Whisper, then back to Kak Freddy's house in KL.
All the while, wearing my new pair of high-heel boots.

I personally feel that the greatest agony -- yet, is breaking in a new pair of heels! Can you comprehend the silliness of anticipating PAIN but you do it anyway because there are just some things that you can't help but be (very) vain about?
hahahhaha! Well, you know what they say; it must look really nice to have hurt as bad. -- Which they ARE! ahhahahha! I had a couple of strangers to prove it.

As Ana had put it on her blog, the outing was pleasant but it wasn't perfect nearing the end (what with me almost falling down the stairs at the monorail station) but heyy, as long as you can still laugh about it; everything's gooood.

Think only of the past as its rememberance gives you pleasure

Jane Austen

I realize on Friday that I don't look good in Mango outfits.. ZARA, H&M and Dorothy Perkins -- ohh yeahh, bring it on! hahahha! Man, ...*finishing this sentence in my thoughts*

I showed Ana the astrology books that I like while we were in Borders. That was fun, getting a laugh at the flattery by some of those books. But we couldn't help being amazed by one of the books that had a pretty good description of me;

Being somewhat silly and odd, you have a liberal mind and a gypsy soul.. Your calling is to see and do things differently even if people don't always understand why.. This differentness is perfectly normal and has been part of the routine seemingly forever. To be honest, you probably wouldn't want it any other way. And here's my favourite part; Love proves highly unconventional for this Archer. You seek partner with brains, beauty and zeal who can share the stage easily.. Until you locate that person, being monogamous probably isn't in the cards for you. hahhahha!!
Basically.. I was born to be FICKLE! hahhahaha! It's awesome to know that I have something else to blame than myself. heehee.

It's been a good Sunday for football. The Magpies won after last week's embarassing defeat and United also won against Chelsea. I wasn't too happy with the referee though. There's just nothing worse than idiotic.. blind referees in a football match, but yeah.. my two favourite teams are the on top 5 of the leader board! I can't help but feel happy for that. (Just for notes, the Chelsea team was staying at the same hotel Nina and I did when we were in Manchester -- I recognized the grounds when I saw it on telly. heehee.)

Oooh! Dida bought me Cecelia Ahern's A Place Called Here the other day. I'm making myself dizzy by changing my read from that to Persuasion by Jane Austen. heehee.
Okay, this is a long enough entry I think.
'Til later.

I shall not talk about football..

I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football. I shall not talk about football.

So...
I have a theory; everybody is charming when you're drunk -- or when you're in love. Scratch that. You'll love everybody when you're drunk! hahhaha!

It's been a while since I went to see a movie at the cinema so my sister and I went to catch Knocked Up last night. I must say.. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect it to be.. as it was.
Although E! have been building it up as the "funniest movie of the summer", I don't think it was all that funny. It was -- wholly illuminating.

Personally, I had felt that it radiates the same vibe I felt when I saw Click last year (minus the watery eyes, though.) The movie was VERY interesting. They had some really good conversations in there which got me and Dida discussing about it waaaay after we'd left the cinema.
Enlightening; just the way I like my movies. heehee.

We find it a little slow, though.. so I suppose it isn't everybody's cup of tea. But I liked it. Heck, I might even love it! (I may be drunk.. hahahhaha!)

By the way..
United won their first Champions League group match!! woohoooo! I won the bet with Dida; who had NO FAITH in the team! Really liked how the Sporting Lisbon's supporters clapped as Christiano Ronaldo left the pitch -- they were.. a great sport! And! Van De Sar was amazingly quite impressive! Saha on the other hand, rubbish.
So my worries are happily diverted for a couple of days.. until Sunday, of course! heehee.

I shall not talk about football. Now.

European brands are funny..

I mean.. Why on EARTH would anyone want to get their clothes near a fire??

An honest tale speeds best, being plainly told.

Shakespeare

Writing is my refugehahhaha!! Can I be anymore cheesy?

My head has been pretty.. messy lately, but no worries! 'Coz I'm not worried. I just get this way every once in a while. Wish it has something.. anything to do with my womanly cycle but it's not.
Basically my head just messes itself up whenever it wants to -- and I shall spare you from my speech about my heart and brain feels and thinks what ever it likes as if THEY have their own hearts and brains.

Just checked my Football Fantasy points and man, I'm behind!! The top of the leaderboard has got 30 points while I have a measly.. measly.. *beeeep!*
(It's beeped because I'm ashamed of my pathetic points! hahhaha!)


Earlier, my sister had compared me to another blog she'd recently visit and she commented that it lacked the passion as I have in my writing. I can't help smiling. I bet Dida have no idea the pleasure she has given me with her words and how they are giving me a rather quiet sense of pride everytime I think of it. Thank you Did!

Just this afternoon I was thinking (while I was in the loo, naturally!) about my lack of competitiveness. Be it in a chase for something or someone, I'm usually the first to back away.
If it's simply because I am the sort of person who gives up easily, I think it'd be easier to understand and accept. But, as an example.. if it was in pursuit of a guy and I know the girl next to me wants him too, I would automatically stop; telling myself "aah.. she probably likes him more". If it's about an object, I'd think "he/she probably needs it more".
My lack of passion sometimes are terrible. Knowing myself too well; realizing that my tendency to get easily bored is VERY high -- KILLS my passion.

Hardly anything is worth a fight.. you know?
If I'm going to get bored with it in the end, why bother right? My indifference towards life is my worst vice. (And I must confess, I have MANY.)

I can't quite decide if it's my complete ignorance or my blind sense of faith that have always lead me away from commitments -- it's almost amazing.
About awful acquaintances;
a. why bother having these people around anyway?
b. I can always find others.
About school;
a. I don't need school to teach me the facts of life
b. other college drop-outs seems to find their own way!
hahhahaha!! My fickle mind.. I have no explanation for it but to admit that I am -- (as I've said two months ago) an easily amused, sarcastic cynic who unfortunately still looks up at the stars and makes wishes. (yet laughs at the mere idea!!) Maaan.. I'm too rational for silliness but I can't help myself.
Refer to the first paragraph of this entry.

Now, have I confused you with my confused mind?
If I have.. Welcome to the club!
If I haven't.. well, I'll try harder next time! Count on it!
I keep running away with my words that I hardly know what my first point was. sigh. This is baaad. (And yet, I'm not doing anything to stop it! hahahha!)
Ah well, maybe I haven't got any.

Dida bought Anuar Zain's latest album and I must say that it sounds good!! Well, of course.. we're fans of sappy ballads so naturally we loved it.

Three hours away from the Derby and Magpies match!
Go Magpies!! woot~!

Maan I need to stop spamming my own blog; entertaining my every whim and get back to my Moleskine!
sigh. Three and a half months away from the end of this year. NOW I'm worried.

Who is more to be pitied, a writer bound and gagged by policemen or one living in perfect freedom who has nothing more to say?

Monday -- shitty day for football!!
I'm pissy here so.. read at your own risk.
The game is at the 75th minute and I can't stop thinking about the prospects of losing to Derby! Gile keji lagi jijik, tidak tertahan. Chances are NOTHING if nobody can kick the ball into the net!!
And excuse me, do you mind me asking; are you a striker, a midfielder or a bloody wanker?? I love you dude, but not enough to make me BLIND! urrghhh!
Good God! Might as well just turn off the bloody telly now.

La-la-la

As much as I hate to admit it, this ad is REALLY FUNNY!!!



That fall was really good!

A long time ago..

I wrote a little list on a tiny corner of my notebook;
of the qualities of the perfect man.

Years gone by and my idea of perfection have changed.
Maybe because I like different things now.. maybe because I've grown up.. or maybe I've grown weary of searching for perfection. Bottom line is, the qualities that makes a man perfect had become A quality;

and that is: he must not be infuriating.

Sure, I'd welcome an occasional spat sometimes; about the show we'd want to watch on telly.. where should we go for dinner.. what's the best football team (believe it or not, I wouldn't want him to support the same teams as I do!) or the ideal number of kids we should have. (You won't ever read me tell you how many!)
But he must not infuriate me.
Frustrate me all he wants.. Make me cry all he may.. but never infuriate me, por favor.

heehee. Obviously I'm in a slightly better mood since the last post; to write something as silly as this.

I was watching the qualifying round for the Belgium Grand Prix last night and found myself smiling at the excitement in the commentators' voices. They were telling the viewers to listen to the sound of the car's engine as they went through the Eau Rouge (which was the point where the track has a little dip and then go up to a 20% hill -- am I making sense here? Well, the cars go very fast through there with a somewhat sling-shot effect.)
Aaaanyway, my point actually.. What exactly am I supposed to listen to?? I know nothing about the sounds of an engine so what exactly is there to be heard? So I concluded, syok sendiri kot diorang nih. So.. self-absorbed, laughing at their own comments, while I grinned at their silliness -- until it hit me.

I'm doing just the same!!
AHHAHAHHAHA!!
All these times I get myself excited as I write about football and even Formula 1, I am no different than those self-absorbed commentators.
Ah well, suits you to have come to my blog! Suits me for watching their show. hehh!

It's been a good weekend for sports. (Good, is relative. hehh!)
Lee Chong Wei won the Japan Open, (thanks Dar for waking me up to catch it -- unintentional though it may be) Manchester United won against Everton through si manja Nemanja Vidic's header. Chelsea had only managed a draw. (hahhahahah!!) The two Ferrari got podium, (I shall not comment about that Ferrari-McClaren spying-stuff verdict) and I bet Tiger Woods will maintain his lead in the Tour Championship!
ha! Now aren't I the sports buff? heehee.

So here's a little advice for those of you who hadn't noticed the pattern yet..
If you're not into sports (football and F1 especially) you might want to AVOID reading this blog during weekends. Then again, you might want to STOP READING this blog altogether 'cause sometimes, it's ALL I ever talk about!

Can you tell that my dark mood has returned?

Spare me from you.

I am killing myself with my thoughts again.

A spate of words hijacking my entire mind.
If this is news, I couldn't tell what you've been reading.
It's frightening to think that despite all and everything, one's core had seem unchanged.
I am.. as I've always been; unfocused yet preoccupied.

Have you met a restless soul such as this?
Angry for not one reason.. Frustrated by one's own expectations.

You cannot transcend what you do not know.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

I probably should write about depression then.

Thank you, Ma.

For the camera phone you gave me exactly nine months ago. heeheee!


You know, for someone who always finds the time to profess one of C.S. Lewis' slightly melancholic quotes at one's liberty, I seem to have a bunch of friends lying around.

It was unplanned, but I met up with Ana and Bahijah and hung out at One Utama on Wednesday. It was nice! (When have you EVER read that I was bored when I am with my friends, really?)
The two are definitely growing up; with Ana going to her very first job interview earlier in the morning (hope you'll get it, Anaaa!!) while Bahijah going to start working (for experience's worth, as we all would put it) next week.
I am feeling.. so proud of them! ..and slightly behind, but oh well! It's never been a competition to me. (heeheeheee! *inside joke*)

We completely lost track of time and by seven we had to part ways.
My sisters came to pick me up from KL and we headed straight to Seremban with Dida driving like a maniac. The Kiddies are having a fever.. it doesn't suit them.

Now.. it's just under an hour away from the EURO Qualifiers match between England and Russia and I'm REALLY looking forward to it! I miss my football. Hopethey'dwinhopethey'dwinhopethey'dwin, HOPE THEY'D WIN!!!

So you Muslims out there who happens to read my blog.. have a good Ramadhan, yeah?
Now don't go doing things I won't do in daylight! hahhahaha!

Friendship is unnecessary; like Philosophy, like Art.. It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that gives value to survival

WE WON!!
Sweet.. sweet victory.
I take back all the bad things I've ever said about Owen. Sure, he just waits on the ball but obviously he's excellent at finishing. It was a BRILLIANT match! One of the best I've seen England played, without a doubt! Could've -- SHOULD'VE scored more but I'm pleased.
Fifteen wasn't sent in but it's okay.. I like winning better, I suppose! hahhaha!
Now.. on with the Premier League!! YEAHHH!!

"I have a boyfriend -- aaah!"said Dayat

I suppose I should admit that the week has been pretty eventful for me. (In comparison to the blah days I've had in the past weeks, obviously.)


Went out with the Beasties on Tuesday.
I think we could all agree that it started pretty boring. Seriously, we weren't talking much, nor did much. It was turning into one of those awful car wrecks you saw at the side of the road. But maybe it's just me.. (Which it probably was.)
I don't know why..

Well, to be honest.. it was most probably because my heart wasn't fully in it -- or even there to begin with! And for that, I don't entirely blame myself. heh!
It was when we were pretty ready to head back home when we all got our mojo back. Something just clicked as Dayat and I were standing in front of the sausages cart in Cold Storage; right after the sales lady offered to steam the sausages if we'd wanted them. hahhahaha! That is one BRILLIANT sales person!

So we bought 500 grams' worth of snacks in the form of chicken sausages and slices (and got another hundred grams free!) We ate some ice cream while we waited in front of the store as the sales lady heats the sausages.
Basically, we had a small picnic in front of the Cold Storage in Berjaya Times Square at half past six.. and that was FUN!


Might be going to Seremban later today.
Extremely anxious about the England match with Russia tomorrow morning!
Mentally unprepared for Ramadhan starting this Thursday. Boy, time flies. Shit! (Note to self: SHOULD cut down cursing for one month!)
I'm getting worried about things but I won't say about it again as I'm beginning to feel like a pathological liar everytime I say what my plans are to FIX it.

Have a good day everyone; one with no life-defining-decision-making sort of day!

edited on 3:15 AM.
The blog looks fine on 1280 x 960 resolution now.

Mentally taking pictures.

Barely four hours of sleep - wake up at 9 - hardly 30 minutes of nap in 39 hours.. and multiple auto-shutdowns.
That was -- my crazy weekend.


The day started alright. The weather was nice as Dida and I was driving through Putrajaya to get Kak Kole and Kak Freddy. It took us barely an hour to arrive at Port Dickson. We set up the tent, took out all the stuff we've brought.. the cooler.. and Dida LEFT! Yeah, she left me with Kak Kole and Kak Freddy because she got a late invitation to watch the Malaysia Cup finals at the stadium. (hahha!! Perak lost! But damn, Kedah won the treble!!)

Naturally, I took out my UNO deck and started shuffling. hahhaha! I believe UNO brings people closer! Seriously. I'm starting to consider of bringing that deck EVERYWHERE I go here! heehee.



Around 6, Kak Freddy suggested that we'd bring her rubber air mattress out to the water and test it out. So we changed into our swimming suits and carried that silly little thing to the ocean. Kak Kole was the first to jump onto the mattress and it was HILARIOUS that Kak Freddy and myself was laughing SO HARD! Then I jumped on. Kak Freddy didn't want to get on at first but Kak Kole and I persuaded her so she did! It was.. just histerical. We were laughing and giggling like manic school children.
We floated around.. Paddled about.. It was funny. There was one particular moment when we got a little to the middle that reminded me of P.S I Love You. Wish I had a waterproof camera right then but I figured, maybe taking pictures with your head isn't too bad. heh!

As the sky turned dark, we returned to our camp and started to light the fire. It took a while but it was greatly satisfying when we got the coals to light up. Really cool! We ate and then just.. hung around. Doing nothing much. It was too dark to play UNO anyway! ahahahahha!!
Except for the part where we had to move the tent because our neighbours were unfortunately a bunch of inconsiderate, loud, annoying, moronic little assholes. The worst part, among these little a-holes, one of them was called "Wani"!! (Notice that I dropped the "e"? I'm irked enough to share the same name, I pray that her's wasn't spelled the same way too.)

By twelve, my soul source of amusement was watching Kak Kole in tingtong mode and being the serial pisser that she was. hahhaha! (Also, having Ilsa to update me with the England vs. Israel scores!! Way cool!! -- England won!! My baby didn't play but WE WON!!) Kak Freddy fell asleep for a bit until Dida came back around 2 a.m bearing KFC!!
So we all just sat around and ate as Kak Freddy and Kak Kole complained about the a-holes we'd encountered throughout the day to Dida.

I think it was four-ish when Kak Kole and Kak Freddy went to sleep in the tent as Dida and I laid on the matress outside the tent just staring at the sky and talked. Dida got sleepy around five though so I was left with the mp3s and sudoku in my phone for two hours.


It was seven-ish when the rest of my party woke up (well, I woke them up!) and started packing. We wanted to have a bit of swim and honestly, the seabed of the beach where we camped at was revolting! (Yeah, we saw the icky stuff we stepped on when the sea level decreases during the night.) So Dida drove us to the place where we usually go with Nina and the kiddies.
It was fun! Could've been more fun if we found an air pump to inflate the air bed since the one we had wouldn't work anymore.


It was half past eleven when we made our way back to Putrajaya. Kak Freddy invited us to the little get together at her parents' home. We spent an extra hour on the road when we somehow missed the exit somewhere but it was worth it. The food was good! hahhahaha!
Dida was driving around with a towel on her head, by the way.


Ohh! At Kak Freddy's house, we hogged her brother's computer for a bit and I found out that my blog's layout wasn't right!! It bugs me how the background repeats itself on the LG Flatron Wide screen with 1280 x 960 resolution! It blows!! For your info, my blog looks best with 1024 x 768 resolution, okaaay?
But you must know that one of these days I shall tweak the background so it'll look alright for visitors with bigger resolutions. arghh! Why do I have to be so anal?! God!


Afterwards we headed to KL and hung out at Kak Freddy's house. That's where I got a little shut eye. So did Dida. We left at almost seven and by then the weather was getting bad. (So was the traffic!)
This was about when I kept falling asleep. It was slightly horrifying, not remembering shutting your eyes and suddenly open up to heavy rains or an unrecognizable road. sheesh! Obviously, 32 hours was too much with only four hours of sleep two nights before.


Now, that was NOT shaky hands! It was plainly.. the awful weather!
We picked up Mama at home and had dinner at Windmill in Subang Jaya where I -- unfortunately (yet naturally) had to fill the comment card with sarcasm.


Then we all went home to Shah Alam where the sky was in a freakish shade of colour.


Now that was a long entry, wasn't it?
That should keep you guys preoccupied and off my back for a couple of days, right? heeheehee. I'm sorry if the entry is a little draggy and yet simplified in some parts. It's already 4 a.m and I'm supposed to meet up my friends in the afternoon -- I'm still tired from the weekend!

In truth, my weekend wasn't all exciting and "perfect".. but why dwell in the bad, right?

I won 47 cents!!

The lack of sleep is making me feverish but heck, I think I'll blog first before I hit the sack.

Had an excellent day with my friends today!
I only had a few hours of sleep before meeting up with Hanis and headed to Subang Parade (because we haven't gone there for ages!) Unfortunately Dayat had to bail at the very last minute because she remembered that she had a midterm paper today!! ahahhaha! Typical dayat.


Ohh bulatnyee.. *curses*
We didn't do anything much. Just window-shopped, had brunch.. a piece of cake and talk. Really.. nothing much. I barely knew what we did exactly for SEVEN hours before Bahijah, Ilsa and Ana came and joined us.

We went back to Secret Recipe just to hang out and killed time with nothing else but.. UNO!! ahhahaha!


Hanis getting sucked into the competitive game of UNO and an excited Bahijah after winning a round.
Hanis had to make her way home just before seven and afterwards the rest of us changed location to the Subang McD and played more UNO. Seriously.. we need better things to do with our time!
Anyway, for our final game, we decided to put some money and I ended up being the winner!! ahahhaha! Way cool! 47 cents!! There was supposed to be a couple of ciggies too but I don't know what happened. I only end up with the money. Well, that and a tiny piece of precious tin foil!


A little more photos on my Fotopage later. (And I do mean LATER!)
I had fun. Hoping to get some more of that before the start of Ramadhan next week!
Goodnight everyone, and have a good weekend. Thanks for reading my blah entries! heehee.

I was happy in the haze..

of a drunken hour..
Oh heaven knows I'm miserable now
The Smiths are stuck in my head again.

I burnt myself a little earlier.
You would think that getting my thumb caught in between the car door was foolish enough, but nooooo.. I had to burn myself.
Awesome!

It's been a pretty slow week here. Nothing much has been happening. (NOTHING has happened to be precise.) Blah!
Nothing's going on with football.. except maybe that Perak is meeting Kedah for the final Malaysia Cup this Saturday. I hope Perak will win; (despite they're historically the biggest rival to Selangor!) my mom's from Perak anyway. But mostly because I don't want Kedah to win or they'll achieve a treble win this season thus making Selangor's treble a few years ago less -- special. hahhaha! I wouldn't want that!!

Also this Saturday, England is meeting Israel for the EURO Qualifiers and I am going to miss it. Dreading it a little, naturally but it's probably a good thing. I stress-easy when I care too much and obviously, I do.

So what am I going to do this Saturday?
Well, I was invited to a picnic/camping at the beach by Dida and her friends! I said "no" after Dida told me how she plans to disappear a bit that Saturday but Kak Kole had wanted me to come.. And I'm just too flattered to stick with my "no". hahhahaha!

Other stuff.. been liking Marie Digby recently. She sounds nice. It seems like everyone is getting noticed on YouTube these days.

Blah. I'm really bored now. Going to watch the England team training on FA.com now. Aren't my life exciting?
Ohh! To be fair.. I am excited about meeting up my Beasties this Friday!

Suddenly remembered something Dida mentioned to me in the car earlier. It was a jumbled up quote she heard somewhere so I looked it up. I'm afraid I have to admit that the idealist side of me can't help but believe;

When you aspire for something with passion, all the universe conspires to make it happen..

Paulo Coelho

Lights in the sky.

I honestly have no idea what I'm going to write about tonight.
Alright.. fine.. HONESTLY I do have things that I CAN write about. Just not necessarily of things that I really WANT to write about. Am I making sense? Probably not.

Picture taken with my amazingly horrible Sony Ericsson that takes shitty pictures with the lights on and the subject is only at arm's length from the lense.
Went to see the final fireworks-fest at Putrajaya earlier tonight (well, last night exactly) and I must say that it was quite dull!! Comparing Pyrofest Canada with Team Japan or even Team Italy.. blah! Maybe it's the weather.. maybe it's the change of location where we see it from.. Maybe we've seen one too many to be as easy to impress.. I don't know. Maybe it's just BORING.

We sat a little closer to PICC this time that we managed to catch the music that goes along with the fireworks -- pretty cool! They were really impressive and funny sometimes.


That's it for tonight.
I don't know exactly what I'm going to do after this but I probably should rest. I'm feeling extremely tired despite that I haven't done anything much through out the day. hmm..

I forgot..
Aston Villa beat Chelsea during the weekend. hahhaha! Way cool! Premier League will take a short break 'til the 15th for the Euro Qualifiers. I don't know if I'm glad.. Also.. Solskjær had retired just before United's game during the weekend due to his knee injury. It's sad.. (Fine, he's actually getting pretty old to be a footballer -- but he looked so young!) I didn't even get the chance to sing his song!
And Australia won the MIFC! Darn, wish I hadn't missed that one!
Oh ohh!! I forgot one more thing.. Dida and I saw Fracture the other day and we loved it. It's a very smart film. A little on the slow side but VERY interesting!

I'd rather have you fat than dead.

I haven't got anything to share. Especially NOTHING that relates to the title up there.

I had a stressful night as I watch the Man U match and the delayed Newcastle match on telly. Not entirely because of their missed chances, but having Dida who was an incredibly annoying and irritating human specimen when she wants to be.
Babe, enough with the yellow already!

I was bored...

So to stop -- (more like dawdle) myself from going into the kitchen and find something to stuff my face into, I decided to try out that Fantasy Football thing I've been hearing from my new favourite show on Star Sports; Football Crazy. (Good show, love the hosts!)

Want to know what I found out?

I found out that I can only manage a top football team where money is no object and where I can splurge on the best names I know. Seriously.. they gave you £55million and it isn't enough!! I also found out that I've been favouring a lot on midfielders and strikers that I simply cannot choose a single defender!! Okay, there's Ferdinand.. but I need three more!!

Still.. I'm looking forward to the start of the game which is on the 15th. I'm very keen on how the jumble I called "team" would do!

Blah~ I must be boring you.
But you should know by now how uninspiring my entries are when I'm uninspired.

"Sendaloka Malam Merdeka"

I know that that doesn't make ANY sense to you but that was the brilliant ending to the Team Japan on the Malaysia International Fireworks Competition earlier! It was bright and amazingly HUUUGEE!! It started as a small cluster and ohh, you had to be there since I think I'm not going to make sense if I try to explain it. It was.. brilliant.
It started boring (plus the wait 'til midnight when we thought it would start at the usual time) but ended BRILLIANTLY.

I had a different kind of fun tonight.
I tagged along Dida and her friends to the fireworks and they're a wacky bunch. Kak Kole and Kak Freddy were Dida's friends from school days and they were waay different from the friends she acquired in recent days! heehee. Kak Freddy happens to know a LOT about horoscopes and I must admit, I was a little challenged by it. haha! --but I was mostly amused. It's always amusing to find another person who knows as much (or more) as I do.

Ohh! And it's hilarious how Dida and Kak Freddy take the mickey out of Kak Kole. I feel bad for laughing along but man, it was too funny!

Alright, got nothing else to write about so I'm just going to post the results of the draw for the Champions League group stage. Again, it's because I am bored and not entirely because I'm football-mad.

Group A	Liverpool Porto Marseille Besiktas
Group B	Chelsea Valencia Schalke Rosenborg
Group C	Real Madrid Werder Bremen Lazio Olympiakos
Group D	AC Milan Benfica Celtic Shakhtar Donetsk
Group E	Barcelona Lyon Stuttgart Rangers
Group F	Manchester United Roma Sporting Lisbon Dynamo Kiev
Group G	Inter Milan PSV CSKA Moscow Fenerbahce
Group H	Arsenal Sevilla or AEK ** Steaua Bucharest Slavia Prague

**It'll be decided after the teams' match were postponed to this coming 3rd as one of Sevilla's player had died earlier this week. (He was my age.. and a Sag!! eeek!)

We're standing still.

Bahijah messaged me last night asking if I was alright. I guess she was concerned that my blog entries hasn't been sunny lately.
We ended up having a little chat about my psyche and as she ran out of words to say to me, I just welcomed her into my twisted mind.

I think it'd be easier if I was rigid with rationalism or just erratic with emotions -- not BOTH! It'd be easier if I was just plain crazy instead of being able to reason why I went nuts in the first place.

Any chance that there's a medical condition where one person has got two brains in their head? I know for certain that I haven't got an actual multiple personality disorder as I am fully aware of everything I'd done.
Isn't it amazing that I know so much about psychology? hahhaha! I swear I would've made a brilliant psychiatrist if I wasn't so cuckoo myself.

I just saw a moving film called Green Street Hooligans. Well, maybe it moved me only because I am very into football. haha!
Honestly it was.. quite violent. Made me thank God for my good senses for not mentioning anything about football while I was in London. heehee. I could easily get into trouble!
Anyway, the film was mostly about the London derby. The team in focus was West Ham United so naturally the main characters were trashing Arsenal, Tottenham and Millwall. (That was the first time I heard of Millwall actually.) You know, I love London, but never the football teams. eeek! I probably shouldn't say that.

Ah well, you should try and read the reviews on IMDB!
The Americans loved the film while the English just thought it was abysmal! hahhaha! Funny. Honestly I find the film a good watch. But obviously I am not British.. nor English for that matter so I wouldn't really know if it really portrays the real hooliganism. I saw Manchester United from a BOX and hardly paid attention to the fans' drunken chants and songs and left the stadium waaay after everybody else had!
I guess I missed that little experience but I had always felt that I would have another chance at it! heehee.

Alright, it's almost six and I need to get my shower. My hair is starting to smell a little funky. hahha!
A self-note that I don't expect anyone would understand; my baby got another yellow last night.

Hijacked heart.

I must say that my mind is constantly preoccupied these past couple of days with things that I cannot say. More than usual.

Wish I could publish my eyes so you could read it however you like.
You know how they say that the eyes are the window to the soul.. If I had to describe my eyes right now with just one word, it'd be "cloudy".

The secret of being a bore is to tell everything.

Voltaire

Running nude.

I have said this too many times yet I keep doing it all over again.

I have no idea why I keep revealing too much of myself and wished I hadn't said anything in the first place. If there's anything I regret about, it's that. Giving me more reasons to be angry at myself. (As if the existing ones weren't enough!)

Maybe there is a magic behind letting yourself go. To be completely absent minded and be true and honest to yourself and another human being. To forget how it feels to be embarassed until the moment of truthfulness had pass and you were met by the other person's reaction; be it surprise or an evenly matched honesty.

Honesty is scary. It is frightening and amazing in the same time; not too different from an atomic bomb, I'd say! haha!
I don't know why I'm typing about this in the first place but I suppose it's safe to say that I'm the kind of person who appreciates honesty even on horrible situations. I find that it is always best to be in the know.

I know it's awful to say that I am never sorry if I had caused trouble with my honesty but really.. I have never been sorry for telling the truth. Pretences and lies had never been an option to me anyway. It resolves NOTHING!
So hey, if anyone must hate me.. there's a good reason for you to! I say a bunch of wrong things because they had felt right. If I lose a friend or two along the way, I'll manage. It's ME I have to live with anyway.

I've accepted long ago that if I strive to please everyone, or even give that much damn to their thoughts, I shall die in discontent. And for someone whose mind had quite a fair share of thoughts on death, that doesn't seem ideal at all.

You know, I believe my greatest FAULT to be thinking too much.

Okay, I should blog now.

If there is a "good time" for me to blog, now is probably it. heehee.

United got their first win of the season. I'm relieved! I was pretty nervous as I caught up with the second half. I was nagging a lot while I was watching the match, saying things like what can I do with them (as if there is anything I can do with them!) and Nina suggested; "stop supporting them?"
--I wish!! Van De Sar returned to his nature of being.. (you'd guess it!) a KNOB! We should get Kasper Schmeichel.. (Son of Peter Schmeichel, whom Dida thought was the best goalkeeper that Man U ever had.) He's still very young and quite brilliant, I dare say. I doubt Rafa Benitez is going to let Reina go. ahhahha! Here I go talking about football like a boy.

Some more quick notes for my future self; Bolton also got their first win and the Magpies got another draw -- which is making me think that I need to watch them play in order for them to win. ahhahaha! I am SO trying to watch their next game and not get tempted by the wonderful idea of the great outdoors! (Man, it'd be HARD!)
I think my baby had a haircut. I miss his bleached hair; it's so easy to spot on the pitch! Maybe he'd get back his senses and bleach it again. heehee. He also got himself a yellow card. sigh. I need to catch the repeat this afternoon.
(And F1's! I'm not even checking the results so I'd be surprised..)

Anyway, reasons for missing my favourite sports;
I was in Ampang for Sheeya's wedding!! It was my first official invitation to a friend's wedding so I MUST go! It was funny.. I haven't seen or talked to her in ages but Sheeya was still very Sheeya!
The thing about weddings.. it doesn't make me think about when am I going to have my own. It usually just awes me how these people trust their judgement and be so certain. Obviously, I am not the person you'd like to ask about commitment. I have doubts in the marriage institution, to be honest. I know, I know.. think what you want, I'm not even going to try to explain myself. But hey, as for Sheeya and her man,
Congratulations!


On Saturday, I met up with Ana who was in Shah Alam and we just.. hung out for a bit. Then I persuaded her to walk home with me from SACC. heehee! Later I got her to join me and Dida to Putrajaya and watch the Team Italy on the Malaysia International Fireworks Competition. Me and Dida got her home waay past midnight. huhuu.



Some other things that had happened last week...
England lost the friendly against Germany. hahhaha! (I'm laughing so I won't curse.) Robinson is definitely rubbish!! Not that I prefer David James any more but seriously.. England is in dire NEED of finding a great keeper. (Like Malaysia needs a brilliant defend line.)

I've been really liking Football Crazy on StarSports lately. They usually have four hosts on the show and they all seemed like friends! People with great chemistry makes me wonder. You know, how some people just clicked while some others don't. It's fascinating!
Ohh, the show's ads are usually entertaining as well.

Okay. I'm bored typing about my days now.
Go read something else!

ps: Bahijah, thanks for last night!! *hugsss*

We all look for happiness, without knowing where to find it; like drunkards who look for their house, knowing dimly that they have one.

Wait for me..

Please.

Bad weekend for football.

I cannot believe United LOST!!
Seriously.. that was just.. the lowest of low.
Man U lost, Bolton lost, Newcastle tied without any goals and Liverpool also tied with Chelsea after that penalty shot from that unjustly decision by that BLIND referee!
Now tell me.. doesn't that sound like an awful weekend for football? Maybe I am just not meant to follow up on the league so early in the season.
(I probably should note that United's U18 youth team had won the Champions Youth Cup, though.)

Now....
Chiang Mai!
It was interesting. I got on Air Asia for the first time and it was... different. I almost gone crazy for the lack of entertainment.
We (me, Dida and her friends) got a pretty neat package for the trip and our tour guide and the driver was really nice. Our guide made quite the impression when she explained to us about their culture of tipping by using her name; Sureetip as a visual aid: Sure - tip! hahahha! She's a Virgo by the way. Very pleasant.

We had Thai Massage on our first day at a building funnily named Pornping Tower! The thought of getting my first ever massage -- and a Thai one at that was nerve wrecking! I'm not exactly limber, you know.


But my masseuse was nice. (Most Thais we met were nice, I suppose!) She didn't knead me too hard except for the part when she uses her knees to massage my back! She actually LAUGHED when I groaned! (Okay, probably my fault since I made a sound not too different from the sound when a **citizen got attacked by a wolf -- You would too if your lungs and ribs are pressed to the floor!!)
** I'm refererring to the game Caesar III. I'm sorry if you had never played it and have no idea what those citizens sounds like.

I'm going to jump hours here, so I'll just tell you what we did the next day.
On the second day we were in Chiang Mai, we travelled a little outside the main city to visit the elephant camp!
They were.. seriously impressive. One of them particularly was an excellent painter! It could even sign its name on the artwork! (In Thai, of course.. so I couldn't really tell what it exactly said. haha!)

One of the paintings done by the elephants being displayed at the souvenir shop.
We hit a couple more touristy places for the rest of the day and one of them was a Thai silk production place where Dida went crazy and charged her card for every purchase. haha!


Then on the wee of Saturday morning, we headed out to Chiang Rai which was the northern most province in Thailand. (Myanmar was just across a small bridge!) We also went to the Golden Triangle area -- not exactly at the opium producing area, unfortunately but we were at the junction of Ruak and Mekong River.
Basically we were able to see Thailand, Myanmar and Laos at one glance!

A shiny structure near the river.
Alright. That's just about it, I think! I write boring reports, I'm afraid. I'll upload more photos onto my Fotopage once I get some sleep. Have a good week everyone!

Chiang Mai Airport

Okay, I'm not even sure what this airport is really called, but I'm here.. waiting to board the plane.
I had spent the last three days in Thailand and I had loads of fun! (Okay, I was pretty moody most mornings -- like I always am everytime I take a trup trip with Dida but we're gonna let that slide, yeah?)

Uhh.. Maybe I'll write some more once I got home but right now, my 10 minutes is almost up! (10 minutes for 10 Baht!) My sister is trying to shop around the duty free area (there's nothing much) and I'd like to join her!
Okay. Til' next time..

Man!! The Magpies only managed to a draw!! grrrrr

Shoes off if you love the Toon!

I was bored the other day so I preoccupied myself by reading about some Premiership teams and I've accidentally landed myself to a new found repulsion towards Sunderland. *manic laugh* sigh. It shouldn't be this easy for me to be affected by things.
Unfortunately, I just love distractions! heehee.

I'm going away for a few days and currently inappropriately dreading it -- just because I am going to miss those football matches! ahhaha! I am silly like that, I suppose. I am EXCITED about going out of town but I wish I could have both! Quite the simple example that you just can't have everything, eh?
Ah well, repeats for me then.

Do you think it's sad that my life sort of revolves around the telly? -- I don't think so, but then again I am too ME to be rational.

Anyway, I am feeling more and more lost these days. I really should adopt a little seriousness and get my mind off those clouds.
Ohh, I am still smiling over Dayat's news the other day. I simply cannot be any happier for her! The coolest ever story anyone could've told me. haha!

Selangor lost the second quarter finals. That blows BIG TIME! blah~ We SO need to do better next season! Losing is cramping my style. hahhaha!
Well, I need to pack my things now. (Of course, it'd help if I am not distracted by Portsmouth vs. Man United on ESPN right now! hahhaha!)

edited on 4:48 AM.
ARGHHHH!
Damn it, United!! Do you have to be this lousy so early in the season?? Arses!! So glad I won't be around to see this weekend's match! Rubbish!
I hope the other United won't disappoint me!

I could be ---- you.

Sometimes, I get.. this psychological complex that neither Freud nor Jung had ever written of, thought about or even bothered to give a name to; which in my opinion, makes it even harder to talk about.
hmm.. So maybe I'll write about something else and leave that particular psychological problem aside. Might as well spare you from the tangles of my head. We could go on for days in an attempt to straighten them.

I haven't got anything actually worth reading here today. I am just.. wasting my time, writing. I should be writing but instead, I'm making excuses. blah.
I'm bored. It's only time when this boredom will convert itself into morbid thoughts.

Ohh. Rooney is out of matches 'til October. I thought.. "Okay, Man U can take it." Then it occured to me.. ENGLAND! aiyyayayaya! Ah well, guess I'll just have to see how they'll manage the next friendly against Germany this 23rd.

Man, I think I'm getting smothered by worriness these days. I really need to get a move on or I'll remember this year for all the wrong reasons. shit!

Currently listening to: Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now by The Smiths

edited on 4:16 PM.
OHHHH MY GODD!!
ahhahahahhaha!!
I can't stop grinning now.
Those morbid thoughts never came.

ahhahaha!! Dearest Dayat, you couldn't imagine how much your news had lighten me up! Excellent!

Getting left out had never been so amusing!! heeheee.

A*HOLES!!

*manic laugh*

Stupid a*holes those Red Devils! ahahhaha! (Yes, I don't find it hard to curse at my own team. I'm quite particular about being fair and I think they deserved to be cursed.) Funny thing is, how my parents find me getting all heated up and throwing curses amusing -- instead of trying to stop me. (They knew better than to stop me, of course.)

It's been a fairly amusing weekend for the EPL opening matches.
As you've witnessed the first paragraph of this entry, Manchester United had only managed to get a tie with Reading. It was a fast paced game (unlike boring.. booring Liverpool!) but they never managed to score, doesn't matter how much they've tried. Simply frustrating! Despite the severely boring game, Liverpool had won their opening match; Gerrard's goal was pure brilliant! Chelsea and Arsenal also won their opening matches against Birmingham City and Fulham. (I honestly think it's mad that London has got TWELVE league football teams! I guess they think that they're that good.. I suppose they are, having five in the Premiership.)
Oh anyway.. The most important thing about this weekend is that The Magpies won!! ahahhaha! *jigs* Well, it's a pity that they were up against Bolton but Newcastle United is my new favourite team this season! heehee. (I may seem a bit fickle, but I'm not really..)
Go seventeen!! *giggles*

Sorry for the purely football entry. I'm even watching Tiger Woods leading the US PGA right now.
-- I don't have a life. hahhaha!

Congratulations to my dear friends;
Ana, Bahijah and Dar!!
Happy Graduation, you guys!
Good luck in your future endeavours.
My sister is having a rough patch in her life right now and I've lost all words to say to her..
Dear God, help!

As for the rest of you.. have a good week!

Premier League!!!

acckkk!!
Bolton vs. Newcastle!
Who do I want to win? Who do I want to wiinnn????
ahahhaha!

Die Sixteen, DIE!

I had an interesting night.
Dida and I stayed at the Holiday Villa Subang, which you may find odd (as I had found it myself,) but it was nice all the same. The room was nowhere cheap but I understand how foreigners would LOVE it. For their small fraction of money, they would be able to get a fantastic view!! I was really surprised that we were in fact -- in Subang.
Now, why did we stay in a hotel for a night is a boring story that I would not even bother to share with you guys.

Also.. last night we (Dida, Papa and I) went to see the Malaysia Cup Quarter Finals between Selangor and Terengganu in Stadium Shah Alam. The turn out wasn't great but the brilliant thing about it is that the people who ARE there were real maniacs. Crazy funny.

We had some great laughs. Mainly because of those manic people.. heehee.
But we also cursed (an exception to Papa, of course!) when our team.. or the Terengganu team was acting particularly moronic.

Especially the Selangor player in number 16 jersey -- OH MY GOD!! He's extremely stupid! Terengganu had scored first, and Selangor levelled. Then Selangor managed to score again, making it 2-1. Then this number 16 (which I just looked up, named Abdul Ghani Abdul Rahman) DELIBERATELY fell on top of a Terengganu player inside the PENALTY BOX which then made them both lying on the grass! Tell me that isn't a MORON! Everybody was angry at him; even the keeper! I actually promised him DEATH in one of my angry shouts. ahhahaha!
So anyway, the match ended with a tie, even with me and Dida chanting "Van De Sar" and "Reina" as Terengganu take their penalty shot. Hope Selangor will pull through in the second quarter finals in Terengganu!
Just found out that 16 happens to be a Sag! Damn youuu! Good thing 16 has never been my favourite number or I'd feel doubly responsible!
edited on 1:34 AM, August 10th 2007.
Ooh.. and I just found out that 16 was the one whom had actually scored Selangor's second goal!! ahahhaha! The irony. I don't know how I feel about him now. He is suddenly amusing somehow.

Aaah~ it's Thursday. *curses* Seems like the days are zooming by so fast.

Absently.. minding myself.

My thumb is doing great. Although.. I'm hating how it looks; 'cause it bled a little under the nail (when it was caught at the car door) and naturally, the blood is stuck there. Now it looks like a manicure done really bad. hahha!
Still.. amusing. Until my nail grows out, I will have a small momento of my own stupidity.

I've recently told some people that I just realized.. my happiest place on Earth happens to be at the stadium -- on a match day. Be it Old Trafford (ehem. I'd only gone there once but still..) or the Shah Alam Stadium, I've never left a stadium not feeling extremely hyper and contented.
I suppose all the shouting, taunting and cursing just makes me happy! hahhahha! Plus, those Mexican waves.. I LOVE Mexican waves. heehee.

Maybe it is important for people to be around people who are similar to them. Not necessarily the same characters or interests, but the same sense of purpose.

Anyway..
So I figured that I probably should be a footballer's wife. Though I reckon I'd be a boring one since all I want to do is follow the spouse on each of his games instead of preoccupying myself doing something else saucy for the media. Probably the worst thing I'd do is leave the kids at home while I join the hooligans at the stadium!
That'd be excellent, though. hahhahaha!

Probably I should've left my thoughts in my head instead of typing them out, yeah? heehee.

The family had dinner at Ang More earlier. Can't help but order the same thing everytime. You know, it's not that I'm not being adventurous; I just find it easy to obsess about things. (The line between "obsessive" and "passionate" is quite blurry in my head, I'm afraid. heehee.)

*squeee!*

Dude, you are amazing!! *giggle giggle*
17 is my new favourite number, did you know? *more giggling*
I have to be honest, I was upset at first. I mean.. I know that it was coming, but I couldn't help hoping. But this.. aah, you were brilliant! Magpies pon Maagpies lah..
For the second time this week, THANK YOUUU Livescore.com! I am so putting it on my links!

On another even lighter note..
OHH MY GOD!!!!!I will have to eat up my words.. Van De Sar isn't so much of a knob after all!! Oh my God! He was brilliant!! BLOODY BRILLIANT!! Oh my God!! Sangat takjub!
We won the Community Shield against Chelsea by penalty shoot out and seriously.. Van De Sar was BRILLIANT! OH MY GOD!! He was.. THE BEST!! ahahhahaha! OH MY GOD!! I am so pleasantly shocked! MY - GOD! I hope Van De Sar will keep this up. Brilliant! What an excellent start to the season! (0010am)

OKAY! Enough about football.. (for now!)
Lewis Hamilton won his second third Grand Prix. (ahhahaha! Apparently I can't get off the "sports topic" just yet.) I do think he's quite brilliant despite that Dida despises him, which proves that you just can't win everybody's hearts.
Make no mistake.. I still wish Ferrari had won!

Earlier, me and Dida went to see a movie with Nina and her little family.
We actually went to see Love Is Cinta -- which I find really funny!
It's weird.. one moment I was teary, the next moment we were laughing at the ridiculousness. It's an odd sort of film. One that you can't really love.

Ohh! At dinner (at Shrooms!) me and Dida heard this family speak Dutch! We got pretty excited somehow. For what ever reason I was reminded of Super deBoer when I heard them. heehee. Man, I missed those awful-sounding language.

This is half funny -- half scary,
I actually happen to have good friends born on the 4th, 13th and 31st! heehee.

Your Birthdate: December 13

You don't love lightly. For you, love is always a serious undertaking. However, you are able to love many types of people. You can bring out the best in almost anyone. Love surprises you often. You never know when or where you'll find it next. Number of True Loves You'll Have: 1 Number of Times You'll Have Your Heart Broken: 5 You are most compatible with people born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd, and 31st of the month.

What Does Your Birth Date Mean For Your Love Life?

To end this entry, (because I am too contented to write anything else) here are more cars for you to run off the road:
1. Kia Spectra, WHX 9656
2. Toyota Camry, WHH 2640
3. Iswara Aeroback, MAY 6674
Especially the Camry. Especially if the driver is an Indian woman. She's a maniac!!

Alright! Have a good week, people!
I can't wait for next weekend!! EPL!!!!!!!

HEPPY BIRTHDAY PET!!!

I thought I'd forgotten it.. (but I didn't really..)
I remembered it the entire day but by the time I got home I was too tired. I almost didn't get to wish you since I had accidentally fall asleep.
I had even started thinking up how I should explain to you how I got so late and feeling like crap for proving again what a bad friend I really am, and then it hit me....

Thank God for the time difference!!!
hihhhihihi.

Hope you had a great day..
and a wonderful year as a 23-year old.
See you on your 24th? *grins*

A jumble of things.. maybe.

1. I'm thinking of penne alfredo at Shrooms. Or maybe that cheese macaroni with prawns from Secret Recipe. Yumm. (I'd think of food when I'm bored.)

2. I was seriously tempted by Outback Steakhouse after I'd seen last night's episode of The Apperentice on Star World; and being the red belt in the art of persuassion, I managed to get Dida to want to try it out sometime soon!! woot~!

3. Speaking of Dida.. we went to Dorothy Perkins before we saw The Simpsons Movie earlier and she got me this dress that can also be worn as a skirt -- which I had ALWAYS wanted! *manic laugh* Can't wait to wear it! Maybe when we go to Outback Steakhouse, yeah? (I know what you're thinking.. I dress up for FOOD, which is entirely TRUE! ahhahaha!)

4. The movie was hilarious, but being The Simpsons.. it's too mindless (albeit entertaining) for me to remember much about it. Except maybe the entire Greenday part. Loved the Titanic reference!

5. You know, I'm nowhere half-done with my manuscript and suddenly last night I got a new idea for a new story -- which probably sounds good to you but really, it's NOT! I hate too many choices. Choices are fine, but too many of it is just.. mental!

6. Dida and I are going to miss Mama and Nina's company Family Day! sigh. Wish we had known about it earlier.. crap!

7. I must admit, my mother is AWESOME in one thing: make-up stuff! ahahhaha! I mean, if it wasn't for her, I would only have a couple of lipsticks/lip gloss/lip balms. heehee. I think she was a tad impressed that I know about "stuff" too.
Ohh, I also proved to her that I wasn't kidding when I said that I couldn't put on mascara 'coz if I do, my spectacles would get in the way of my eyelash. She had a good laugh when she saw it. Stunned, but entertained.

8. I forgot to write about this yesterday..
If you happen to see a yellow Hyundai Getz with the license plate WMA 4328 with a male-ass driver, do me and Dida a favour and drive it off the road, thanks!

Have a good weekend fellas!

"Life is too short, eh?"

AHAHHAHAHAHA!!!! Man.. the dream of that 13-year old girl crashed again tonight.

Never Date a Pisces

Sensitive, emotional, and unrealistically romantic - you are destined to break Pisces heart. Don't get fooled by a charming Pisces. They'll be clinging to you by the end of the first date!

What Sign Shouldn't You Date?

I was eating McD's apple pie earlier and it made me wonder..
How is it possible to eat those things without getting the sweet, apple sauce slobbering all over your mouth, eh? I mean, there must be a technique of some kind, right?

Went to see The Invisible -- I feel sorry that I'd seen Disturbia last night which made my thoughts towards The Invisible rather.. brutal. I truly believed that Disturbia was perfect, so with The Invisible.. everything was simply not enough!
There's these characters; Nick and Annie, and I believe they were supposed to show this.. high-level sense of connection between them but I didn't feel it! They had an hour and forty minutes to get me hooked but what they did was just stalling the end which could've been at the end of the hour mark!
I just find everything sluggish.
It's disappointing.. it had so much promise! The premise -or idea of the story was really interesting (it's an adaptation of a Swedish novel, Den Osynlige) but the result was just -- NOT ENOUGH.

Humm.. anyway. I've been saying this a lot lately but..
I've got to get a move on.
--once I wake up later in the morning! ahhahaha!!

Suka Shiaaa!

He's quite impressive isn't he?
Dida and I went to see Disturbia earlier and I just loved it! I'm not exactly a fan of a thriller-movie genre but this.. this one I like. It's like one of those films that you would want in your collection, y'know?
It had enough thrills, light-moments.. back story.. Perfect!!
Of course, there's Shia who is an excellent actor.. and still so young! I dunno.. it's funny when I think about him on Even Stevens though. heehee.

Plus.. plus.. he's a Gemini!
Speaking of Geminis..

Your True Love Is a Gemini

Why you'll love a Gemini: Witty and sharp, a Gemini can keep up with your fast (and ever changing) mind. You're both fun loving and free spirits. You and a Gemini can enjoy each other without expectations. Why a Gemini will love you: Not only can you keep up with a Gemini's sharp tongue, you can introduce a challenge or two... Your appetite for fun and novelty will keep a Gemini interested - at least for a bit longer than usual!

What Sign Is Your True Love?

hahhaha!! But nee, as I said to Nadiah two weeks ago; it wouldn't work out between us. He's an only child, it'll be hard.. (I think too much, no?)
Ah well, I'll find some other Gemini surely.

Oh yeah, the only downside to the film was the fact that it had started way earlier than the show time was supposed to be -- which I shall write a complain about as soon as I finish writing this! (Or a bit later..)

My thumb feels much better now despite that I still need to hold things quite gingerly; but I am up for typing a bunch tonight!

Dida had exposed me to a new album; Truth, Cry and Lie by an Indonesian band called Letto. They kind of reminded me of Stephen Speaks to be quite honest. You can listen to my favourite song on the album over here. I must say.. his English sounded waaayy better than the vocals for Samsons (whom had reminded me so strongly of Siti Nurhaliza's English! ahahhaha! I'm sorry.. I shouldn't laugh.)

Ohh! On our way back to the car from the cinema.. we umm.. encountered a woman--person (who was definitely NOT a lady) who um... peed at the back of our car. Well, she was more at the back of in between our car and the car next to ours. Her friends were keeping a look out for her, apparently, by opening the door to their car so people couldn't actually see what she was doing.
The whole thing was a little.. funny I suppose. hahhaha! In a "yuck" kind of way.

Then when we got home, we walked by the apartment on the ground floor and I swear.. the guy who lives there had a snore the sound of a zombie! I mean, he had successfully creeped me out for a moment there. Seriously, thoughts of Dawn Of The Dead rushed through my head.

United lost to Inter Milan in a friendly game, 2 goals to 3. hahahhaha! This is what happens when there isn't a live coverage for me to see it. ahhahaha!
Thank you Livescore.com anyway.

Ah well.. I'm obviously, simply babbling (like a babboon?) here so I'm going to stop. (It's possible that it's a sign that I need to get some sleep.)
It just occured to me that I saw every single "summer blockbusters" this year!
And right now I'm wondering if I'd knew anyone from Luton. Do I?
What ever.

Have a good Thursday everyone!

The sight of you makes me smile.

Well, your head made me smile.
The very sight of you particularly made me giddy.

I think it's a bit annoying that whenever my thoughts aren't particularly occupied about something, there will come a familiar face comfortably hijacking my mind.

I'm sorry, I don't think you'll ever read me talking about it in an obvious way. I dunno, maybe because I want it real bad (right now at least) so I wouldn't want to jinx it.
I suppose I am not one of those people who believes that you'll get things by saying how much you want it, as much as you can. Of course, I think about it a lot but you never know particularly how much, right?

I think too much, honey.

Aaah~
It's August -- it's August! It's awesome awesome August!!
(I'm chanting this while doing a little jig, by the way. heeheee!)
I don't know why I'm so excited about it anyway. It is after all a mark that another month has end and the end of year is fastly approaching!! yikes! I'm not exactly too keen on that -- I take back that jig.
