ching chong ching chong

i generally HATE it that most websites show up on my laptop in Chinese. i've tried fixing it but somehow these Chinese characters still pop up. can someone PLEASE make my laptop speak English?!!? nothing racist here but uh, i do NOT understand Chinese.

okay so that aside.

i had a lovelier Tuesday! met the nehneh at 10.45 a.m. to go to Millenia Walk for our Fitness First appointment. fees are a lil' steep but the facilities, LOVE. love love love.

the one at George St has an infinity pool AND the club closes at 11 p.m. yeah, that's MY kinda gym.

so i will think about all this financial shtick for now but if i can afford it, i definitely want it.

after that was PUB building for lunch! got my chicken briyani with PAPPADUM and that cucumber/ pineapple smush. LOVE LOVE LOVE. i love chicken curry most. it taste BOWHIZZA! with briyani and pappadum. and BTW my boyfriend is a sick sick man. HE LIKES TO EAT PASTA WITH PAPPADUM! HOW NEW DELHI IS THAT?!!?!

or maybe he's just indian.

eh don't look at me all funny okay. just now i scold him for wobbling and moving his head all over the place, giving me a headache and he WHINED,"but i'm INDIAAAAN!" ya la i can SEE that.

siao.

anihweyyyyh. i got gastric in the morning. :( so we got a kit kat chunky on our walk to fitness first. but it didn't go till much later. i hate my gastric pains cuz its the sort that can last for hours despite the food you eat. they happily take their own sweet time to recover, cannot be forced one. they're abit like me, independent and cannot be pushed around. HURHUR. i got a feminist stomach. OKAY ANYWAY.

then because i was in too much discomfort to walk all the way to cathay the cathay (as yahoo! calls it), we just went to cineleisure which was a 5 minute walk away. :)

X- MEN 3: THE LAST STAND rocks my cookies, balls and dingdongs!

very very nice. i think i'm a sap cuz i like that the government now like X- Men! (next line is a bit of a spoiler so if you don't mind, go ahead and CTRL- A) and Magneto is no longer a powerful mutant! nyeahahaha padan muka kene main chess. umm, haha good on you kena play chess.

but i don't like the new jean grey. or is it the same jean grey? she looks different. not just the longer hair la... but she looks like a transvestite now. no? dunno la.

i like the humour element that many superhero films TRY to incorporate but fail to take off. this one was in sufficent doses. i like Furball a.k.a. Beast lei. he looks like the Grinch of Christmas. after a dye job. no meh?

after the movie was famous amos cookies and a long walk to zara wheelock to show nehneh my potential birthday dress. its very pretty, very birthdayish, very 21st and VERY EXPENSIVE. HAHAHA.

lovely long walk full of laughter and general dumbness. i did the robot dance, he pretended to be blind, and umm, i can't remember what else. we took almost 30 minutes to walk from cineleisure to wheelock. halfway through the walk i asked him, "do you reckon we'll ever reach Zara?" hahaha.

you know its a very... Singaporean kind of happy couple thing to do. walk along town, sun shining in your face, shades on, cookies in one hand and Big Gulp in another. and now come to think of it, how come suresh didn't start dancing or turning into Michael Jackson when he held the Big Gulp cup? or is that an occurance common only among Singapore Idols?

yeap so after walk to zara and trying on dress it was back home home home. train ride + walk to my block. :)

simplest days are happiest days.

we can live beside the ocean

what a lovely monday. the bangles (not the banglas, i think their mondays ARE quite sad) got it wrong. mondays aren't ALWAYS manic. not when its the holidays!

so silly ol' me confused millenia walk with wheelock place (don't even ask me how) so fitness first club viewing is postponed to tomorrow. so i ended up in town at 3.30 p.m. with nothing to do. but its town, and nothing does not exist in town. in fact if you really THINK about it, nothing does NOT exist. how can nothing exist right? for ANYthing to exist, it must be SOMETHING! and nothing is not something, its nothing! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

wow i had so much fun just typing that i am laughing to myself. hooo.

okay. so anyway.

wow i'm still laughing. i'm so easily amused sometimes i wonder if there's drugs in the air i breathe.

okay so yes since i was in the wrong place, i figured i'd just walk about! so i wandered all over town, looked at books, checked out new makan places, tried on shoes, dresses and handbags...

okay my iTunes is playing Play That Funkeh Meuzeek! once i was boogey singaaaaaar... playin' in a rock and roll bandddddd!

oh blimey its hard to type and dance at the same time.

oh they were dancing, and singing, and grooving... PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC WHITE BOY!

uhm yes so it was wheelock to wisma to taka and of course when hunger strikes, Toast is conveniently located at Taka so it was tuna panini and yummeh iced tea for late lunch. :)

pleasant place it is, really. read my connelly while chewing on my lovely sandwich. but note to self: next time tell them to leave out the salty stuff. rocket, is it called? yea. its funkeh.

i should start spelling properly.

oh yes and no news from USP! :( does that mean i didn't get it? but he said he'd let us know if we got it or not. so hmm. where is my rejection letter, if any? sigh. patience is indeed a virtue. but i'm not very virtuous lor.

nehmind hopefully the longer time they take to deliberate will lead them to the eventual and righteous decision which is to EMPLOY ME LA NABEI!

ahem yes so. june is a good month! there's the world cup, there's the bintan trip, then there's razinah's birthday party, and ruzainah's early birthday thingy cum pjc picnic, and hopefully, KL- PD- Malacca trip with the nehneh! whoopee!

somehow i think there's a few more things coming up in june but i just can't remember them. well i hope they're not very important. hahaha.

oh yes and i better buy my 06/ 07 diary soon too. BTW i don't use a regular jan- dec annual diary cuz its too confusing for me (easily amused and easily confused, what IS in this oxygen?) since a new academic year begins in MID- year. so there's a proper sense of closure and continuity and whatevernots. okay no whatever. i just think its easier for me la. i don't know why i'm explaining this to you.

so yes, my 05/ 06 diary ends 2nd july. so i ought to get a new one soon. the one i liked just now was june 06- july 07. then the june in my current diary how???? see, so much crisis, just over a diary. bahhhh.

i had a gory gory dream last night. 5 of us, me, suresh and 3 unknowns were caught by this guy who thinks we know something we shouldn't know. and one of us kept denying so he killed her. and he kept asking us over and over again. and we had no idea what he wanted to know. friend who died was wearing pink pajamas btw. and basically, lots of blood. and he left us for abit at his porch or something and when one of us tried to escape, he got shot cuz apparently we were being watched. so basically, scary shit.

then towards the end of the dream apparently i realized what the hell the guy wanted us to tell and i turned to suresh and started saying something about the Order of The Psion. no no its not The Da Vinci Code exactly, its actually from The Asti Spumante Code, this book i'm reading which is a PARODY of the DVC. what the hell right?!?!? a parody is supposed to be funny man.

so anyway yes i guess that is just my brain doing overtime again. what's new. i'm a freak, freak, freak. sing a new song, fiza!

okay i am more pleased with my haircut now. i guess it grew out a little. previously the fringe was a little too short and i was getting a bit of a "little house on the prairie" feel. not nice.

ohhhhhhh i remember liao! hafiz leaving 10th june! that was what i was missing. yeap. okay now we wait and see what else comes up.

oh i had fun trying on DRESSES. haha. from high- end boutiques. like dresses that costs $219 and above. hoo hoo hoo. so fun.

okay la i want to... umm. do something else. hope you had a lovely monday too! if you didn't, its probably because you didn't have a tuna on panini sandwich. :D i leave you now with this classic from my secondary school days.

I just want to feel some sunshine

I just want to find some place to be alone

We can live beside the ocean

Leave the fire behind

Swim out past the breakers

Watch the world die

tagged be done

from yanee who wants her blog to remain a nation's secret. :)

Once you’ve been tagged, write a post with 24 weird facts/things/habits about yourself then tag 6 other people.

1. i am painfully, painfully honest. on mothers' day i met a secondary school friend i haven't met in a while and the first thing i asked was, "are you balding?" you can say i call it like i see it. :D

2. i cannot wear rings for more than 5 minutes. as you can tell, this along with many other qualities of mine, makes marriage quite a shtick. the longest i've lasted was from my door to the lift and it was off when i got to 1st floor. :)

3. i was in such hurry to meet world that according to my mum, the midwife hardly had time to get rid of her bangles to put on gloves. i popped right out, into gloveless hands.

4. i am very scared of crying girls. once a girl broke down in front of me crying and turned into a block of wood while she hugged me. followed by "uhhhs", "auuunghhh..." and "its okay, its okay..."

5. i am more scared of crying boys.

6. i have broken up with a guy over bad spelling...

7. and bad dressing.

8. i know more songs from the 20s- 70s than the 80s- current. how i heard of songs that were played before i was born, i know not. but i know i even know songs that my own mum and uncles don't know so yup.

9. if a book is a bestseller i most likely won't buy it cuz my expectations will be sky- high and no matter how good the book is, i will be disappointed. this is one reason why i have not read dan brown DVC. however i will now since i've watched the movie and have lowered expectations of the book. hahahaha.

10. i think i will never find a book that can really live up to my expectations, a book that will leave me boggled and dazzled and bewildered and fascinated and just high high high. i think maybe i'm looking for a drug, not a book.

11. many people would use the word weird, odd, eccentric etc. along those lines to describe but in truth, i'm having a hard time just filling up this 24.

12. one of my favourite cartoons as a kid was teenage mutant ninja turtles and i forgot which one i liked. but i am still on the quest for that cheesy as hell pizza they always eat. maybe i'll find it in chicago.

13. i am terribly fickle. people are always saying that i should never be given too many options. for e.g. outside pastamania i would stare and stare at the menu for 10 minutes and conclude i want penne arrabiata. and then when we're at the cashier, i say, "can i have the fusili marinara?" much to the nehneh's confusion. "i thought you want..." "no, no, this is what i want."

14. i never went through a bad boy phase. a part of me think its because i'm a pretty big asshole on my own and a bad boy would be too scared of me anyway.

15. having a bisexual ex (who cheated on me with a guy, no less) made me less homophobic and sometimes i even find myself fiercely defending gays. then again i have bisexual female friends too. hmm.

16. i'm quite anti- establishment, and sometimes for the sake of it. similarly, sometimes i disagree and argue just for the sake of disagreeing and arguing. hurhur.

17. i can not eat breakfast and lunch and just have tuna on crackers for dinner one day, and eat like a pig the next. and though i love chocolate so, i'm not the sort who eat it everyday. i'm the sort who can eat 3 in one sitting.

18. i have alot of medals and trophies from my school days but none of which are gold. and i believe that's what i've always been as a person, great, fantastic at times, but never the best. and i can live with that.

19. i can't stand whiny girls (and boys too, if any) and have been known to be dismissive to problems i deem shallow. this probably falls under painfully honest?

20. i hate my nose. i think its small, flat and terribly bnreghjwksndrthroihbl.

21. i have emotional walls that i put up every now and then so that no one can ever come too close. my bestest friend and me meet once every 3 months or so and we're perfectly fine with that.

22. my immediate reaction to trauma of any form is laughter. drop mashed potato on the floor in front of 50 people? laugh. bra and underwear in translucent bag rolling into drain? laugh. fiance of boy i dated the night before calling me to tell me he's still attached? laugh. laughter is for me, literally the best medicine.

23. sometimes i laugh for nothing because i just feel life is funny or there's just that rumble of laughter in my tummy that's begging to get out. and i will laugh and laugh and cuz i'm laughing for nothing it makes it even funnier and i go hysterical. then i have a hard time explaining to the people around me, if any, or the person i called, if i was alone.

24. i cried when i dropped my apple and i cried when it finally crashed on me. but i didn't cry for at least 4 of my break- ups. i have an emotional complex equivalent to a sea urchin.

and now i tag 6! it shall be hapizzzzzzzzzz, suresh, laremyyyy, maya, HIZUAN! and diana, if any of you ever get to read this la.

okay now i shall laze away the rest of my sunday. i woke up at 2.45 p.m. :D:D:D:D

singsongsingsong

Now we have to let it lie

Keep talking in circles on the phone

Then we get together, but we're all alone

Take one more shot at me, baby

Like I've never cared how you feel

Let It Lie; Moe's Kitchen

okay and the nehneh did well too!!!! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! the good news are pouring in. llalaalalalal.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

*jumps up and down in chair*

on TOP of the $3600 annual living allowance and the option of $2200 loan for my stay at PGP, they've also given me a $1200 AWARD for my results!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND i get priority for future work- study assistance jobs that i apply for! oh wow wow whee.

WHOOPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

okay i'm out of breath. now i await results from the nehneh. *sits on hands*

Friday, May 26, 2006

well well well

okay first up, a QUIZ!

and this time its for REAHHHL. winner wins toast cupcake date with me! :D deadlines close this weekend on sunday so DO DO YA, DO YA DO YA WANNAAAAAA. have a toast cupcake, that is.

in case you have forgotten how bloody yummy it is...

oops.

here.

nah.

see? now go do quiz!

that aside i am very contented now cuz 1) my results are better than expected and i got what i want and 2) i ate spicy wings @ KFC admiralty with the nehneh who had cheese fries, after he was done with work. one of these days i MUST snap a picture of him in officewear. DELISH.

one of my most frequented sites these holidays are dictionary.com and wordsmith.org. GEEEEEEK.

but who would have guessed that pulchritude means GREAT beauty and appeal? sounded more like puke to me.

so i am of GREAT pulchritude. HURHUR. geddit? so i am of GREAT GREAT beauty and appeal. WAH SEHHHHH.

and next time i watch soccer while on the phone with the nehneh i can say, "ooh ooh rafa has brought on a succadaneum!" no, not a fancy medical gadget, but a substitute! oh the joy. and i was once a ballet dancer so i do have some terpsichorean skills. no, no body- bending, just means i've got some dancing skills. WAAAAAAAAH.

are you impressed yet? hahahaha. so anyway its just fun so yeap. okay. enough.

tomorrow at 11 i shall call the nehneh and hopefully share in his good news. speak of the devil, he has just given me the shock of my life by text messaging me. -_- i'm home alone.

and yes so after THAT we're off to hopefully CELEBRATE (not commiserate) over coffee! lalala i love coffee saturdays. been awhile since we had one.

okay i'm sorry but may i just repeat the point that i hope suresh gets an office job cuz i think he looks good in office wear. but throw away those bangla shoes! i don't like em'!

hmm. what else. i am very excited for my birthday! not just because its my 21st but really because i haven't been this happy with my life in a long, long time. so it'll be very apt to celebrate such a delightful year.

AND tomorrow at 11 i will be checking online whether or not i was successful in my financial aid application. hopefully my results will help push it in the affirmative. pleasepleaseplease let us get the money. we can really use it.

AND if we get it, mum can rent out current place, new place cuz i stay at PGP and she can stay in a single- roomer too. more money!

AND hopefully if i get the job come monday, i'll be able to earn some too. let's hope the good luck doesn't end today.

AND (hahaha) i hope mum gets her scholarship! yes my mum the scholar! she's retaking her English O Levels to get a better grade so that she can apply to become a Pre- school teacher. i am always proud of matured students. i think learning knows no age barriers. and of course the money will come in useful for her too. i will vote for PAP as long as they keep giving us money. hahahahaha. oops seditious!

AND (okay last one) with ALL that (hopefully) financial input, we will have a blast in chiang mai come 8th july.

dizzie; i promise to save up my SINDA pay so that me and nehneh can come visit you in Melb in december! whoopee!

speaking of which, my SINDA tuition starts 10th july on a monday but i will be in chiang mai that day, returning the next day. so anyone can take a bunch of Sec. 2 NA kids for some Emaths on that night alone, 7- 9 p.m., do lemme know. :)

i am in LOVE with almost everything right now. maybe i'm breathing in too much oxygen. is that possible?

i remember naz tagging saying there's so much love in this blog, thank god its not pink. the black offsets all the happiness. hahaha.

well not to overthink it all but honestly, black really exemplifies the simplicity of this happiness. and PUH- LEESE, pink (see how that hurts your eyes?)? never in a billion years. my blog has never been pink. it started off blue, then white with fruits, then black with butterpalats, then gray with beatles and then this, i think. hmm hmm.

i wanted to watch Charlie's Angel: Full Throttle on AXN but then i got lazy. TV isn't very entertaining to me, though i'm sure hafiz will disagree. hahaha.

so what am i going to do now? i am going to do module- mapping and many other boring scholastic stuff cuz tonight feels like a night for all that. so what if its a friday night? getting drunk and punching a bouncer isn't really up my alley. especially when you're 1.56m tall, anything meekly violent towards someone twice your size shouldn't be anywhere NEAR your alley.

boring, scholastic stuff. now that's my alley. alleycats. whoo! BTW i make a LOVELY impersonation of ALLEYCAT'S david arumugam. SERIOUS okayyy. i make good impersonations of alot of malay artistes, especially those from 80s and 90s. i was a weird child.

i once fell while dancing, on my chin. i was 8, i think, and i had a bleeding, garish, chin. the cut is still there if you look closely. no, there is no point in that statement. except maybe to reiterate the last sentence of the previous paragraph.

i should start writing my book these holidays but i'm too lazy. besides, i've already made up my mind that my first book should roughly be a compilation of blog posts cuz honestly, this site has some RIDICULOUSLY random shit. for example...

last night i pondered on several philosophical questions of life...

like why am i here, and not elsewhere?

why CAN'T pigs fly?

if batista keeps resisting triple h's killer move, the pedigree, by counter- attacking, does it prove that he IS scared of the pedigree/ the truth as triple h says, or is he just good at counter- attacking and strong enough to defend himself from the pedigree?

as you can tell i spent last night watching Backlash, a wrestlemania special. anyway the last question no longer needs answering because...

even though triple h insists that the pedigree is the truth, and that he knows batista fears it, at the end of the day what killed him was the batista bomb which, as it turned out, triple h himself fears and proved to be the end of his long -running hold on the world heavyweight championship belt.

aah.

see? don't tell me you won't PAY money to buy a book full of all that and MORE?!

i would.

:D

okay so long liao i blog. byebye!

i'm so happy i'm gonna shit in my pants.

yeap, dandy results. and even dandier for HAFIZ! so yay! now for suresh tomorrow, and we'll be three happy kids.

lalalalala.

thank you, God.

if you're happy and you know it say...

KAPUCHEKAPUPESHIUPESHIU!

lovely lovely day. no sneezing, which is a good sign. funky throat is still there but hopefully some honey water will do the trick.

had my interview at USP and it went about as well as it could possibly have. now i all i can do is hope for the best. news will be in monday. so that's friday and monday, two D- Days in the span of 4 days. sheesh.

but anyhoos thereafter was great too! i rate today a 10/10. :D

so after my interview i bummed around reading my sue townsend (YES! two new books bought yesterday for $18 onlyyyy cheapcheap!) and sipping 100 plus. and craving for a multitude of food.

at 6 i met the nehneh who looked very sharp in his office outfit. very hamsup, i like. hurhur.

took the bus down to harbourfront hawker. where we met my mum. he had thosai, i had mee soto, she had beef noodles. his thosai was fantastic so me and mum shared one between us. then he jokingly suggested kaya toasts at harbourfront mall and i pounced on it cuz i was still ravenous! so between us three we had 4 slices of kaya toasts. yes, that's 8 rectangles of kaya toasts. yummyyyyyyy. and iced milo and iced longan. boowhizza!

i think holidays are good for gaining weight, cuz i lose it all at sem time. hmm hmm.

and tomorrow! SO EXCITINGGGG! possible brekkie plans at TOAST (yet again) with dizzie and nehneh, then haircut appointment at 1 for both me and nehneh, lunch, then DA VINCI CODE after that! whoopeeeee! what a brilliant holiday!

and by the way to all interested, Toast Cafe is at Ngee Ann City as well as OUB Centre at Raffles Place. have fun!

CSI and AI. hm hmm. love love love. new garb for tomorrow too! pics galore ahead!

i am too excited to blog coherently. this is a reoccuring condition. i should look into it one day. till then, toodle- loo!

V is for vitamins

and i need those, pronto. believe or not, i'm having cold/ flu symptoms. AGAIN. isn't this the second bout this month? i've got the immune system of an oyster.

so today i cleaned my room! whee! i see floor and bed! whoopee! and now all i gotta do is wash dirty clothes, do some mopping and sweeping and walla! good as new.

after the clean- up it was off to town with the nehneh for some Toast lovin'! yes i loved it so much yesterday i went again today. as of now there's only 2 places i can go daily; Thai Express and Toast. i love food. mmmm.

so yes he LOVED it as much as i do and ladies and genties, we've got a new contender! yes, for the spot of Fiza's ULTIMATE ORGASMIC chocolate thing!

it was (and maybe still is) chocolate lava cake...

but this...

is fast becoming a very strong contender for 1st. it is SUPERBLY amazing. nutella cupcake. next time i'm getting there early to snag a nutella cupcake, an ultimate chocolate cupcake (just the name makes me sick with lust) and the Elvis; chocolate banana with PEANUT BUTTER wah heyyyyyyyyyy. i am in LOVE.

so prior to that i ordered weselves two rocking good iced tea. it is a MUST- TRY. it looks like beer. haha. but that's not why you should try it. you should try it because its refreshingly good, FRESH lemon tea, and has lemon RIND in it. i am in LOVE.

this is his egg&cress sandwich. sounds unappealing, but it sure it nice.

and this is MY sardine ISTIMEWA, what a sexy name for a sexy sandwich.

and they use HEINZ ketchup and mustard! but no chilli sorry, only tabasco. and pepper. :)

so after that we returned his book to the secondhand bookstore at far east and i ended up with 2 more books. adrian mole and connelly! whee! its gonna be a BRILLIANT week. now let's hope i don't bomb tomorrow's interview. :S

and i've got a haircut appointment come thursday with the nehneh. AND results are out friday. heebeejeebees!

on a brighter note, there's movie plans for X- Men 3 and Da Vinci Code. :) and there's always the World Cup to cheer me up shall i bomb the interview and flunk my Yr2. haaaaaaa.

okay positive thoughts, positive thoughts.

its hard to have positive thoughts when your nose threatens to do a full 4.2 km marathon without you. and your throat feels like a goooooood scrub down with sandpaper will be absolutely heavenly.

but whine i shalt not, for life is indeed loveleih. and there is CSI on tonight, 2 books to read, panadols to pop and honey water to make. contact lenses to take out and YES! a much missed bed to sleep on.

i want to hereby thank nehneh for a lovely time even though i was quite tired towards the end and almost threw up on you. and let's never ever ever play REAL pool, cuz we truly madly deeply suck. :D i am in LOVE.

okay now for some R&R.

love to all!

i am EXHAUSTED!

shopping with a fellow GIRL is very different from shopping with a guy. well of course it would be but i never FELT the difference before. yowza.

so it was shopping galore for two girls who hasn't met since their last paper back on 2nd may? and in 4 days time our results will be out. sheesh.

yeap so we shopped and since she was late she treated me to a lovely lovely lunch/ dinner at toast, ngee ann city. love love love the place! shall drag mum+maplek there someday.

walking in wedges all over town is no joke okay. its almost as tiring as kickboxing. imagine that!

i need to clean my room. i know i've been saying that since mothers' day week but since then all sorts of thing had cropped up and now, finally, i have a free week what with the nehneh working at OSA and me hence consequently being generally free. and not too rich since i'm jobless. hence home is my respite for now.

interview this wednesday. i really really hope i get the job. and hmm, soccer. when will that start? another reason why i wanna get the job is cuz i wanna pay for the kickboxing classes. so yeap. ladida.

i can't wait to get fit again. i think being healthy is good cuz then you have a positive outlook on your body, yourself, your life and hence, everything! and besides its time consuming. class is an hour, but recovering from pain takes 3 days. :D

and yes time- consuming is good, cuz its the holidays and time is there to be consumed! effectively and productively! CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP ON TIME!

which is why i shall spend tomorrow cleaning my room. CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP!

i think i've gone donkeys.

tralalalala but i'm happy. happy happy happy. happy as a donkey. are donkeys happy? hmm.

and nehneh! first paycheck must BUY ME PRESENT! MWAHAHAHHAH.

okay la. i am tired and its taking its toll on my brains. good night everybodeh.

nehneh if you read this, i want to go bombay and eat at Bade Miyan and have some Badai Roti. NOW.

as for the rest of you, have a good monday! am off to meet gail now and maybe the nehneh if his work finishes early. okay then, toodles!

Sunday, May 21, 2006

as promised, pictures!

me looking like hollywood trash, i think.

finished food. bottom left? my plate. with what remains of black pepper crab.

the nehneh at the party.

the wedges!

the cow.

some party people.

us. and yes, NO TEETH! wahhhhhhhh.

well okay so party was a blast, as expected. hope you had a blast too, sin! and nydia, i want my pictures. WO YAO WO YAO WO YAO!

and yes, of all things, none with the birthday girl. there's a group one with nydia, so i'll put that one up when i can.

time for CSI marathon. TOODLES!

some boys kiss me, some boys hug me

so i'm finally home but rest is only temporary for in an hour's time the maplek will be here to whisk me off to pasir ris for sin's party. ahhhhhhhh stress.

okay so i had a blast with my cousins, as usual. unfortunately, low batt camera means minimal pictures but i believe i snapped some of food. yes food is very important.

so anyway got to jb at 1ish and wandered around city square. had ceasar salad and fries at season's then it was a walk through the shops and walla! sale! and walla! WEDGES! in my size!WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MALAYSIA TRULY ROCKS!

so yes, Rm29.90 later i was the new owner of hot new wedges. whoopee! am gonna wear it to tonight's thing so i'll snap pics of that if i can. but i love it! $15 wedges! love love love. love is cheap and comes in bins full of 70% off shoes.

and in my size. 4. an almost impossible quest has ended. beezelbubs and boomerangs! hahahaha okay i dunno what i'm saying.

so after that walkabout we checked into the hotel first while waiting for my cousins to arrive. had a nap and read the papers. at 8ish they arrived and it was DINNERTIME!

had sambal prawn, black pepper crab, japanese tofu, baby squid, fried vege, some spicy fish dish, and specially made mango juice. HOLY COW! yes it was alot of food. and i ate alot. by the end of the night my plate was full of crab. HURHUR. geddit geddit?!

ANIHWEYHH. post- dinner was a 3hr-long karaoke session where we busted our lungs singing rock songs, old songs (dizzie! hurhur!), new songs, all songs. then when it all ended at 2, i suggested prata.

so we were off to merlin towers for some prata, then fried maggi, then half- boiled eggs. uhuh. and when i suggested prata they all gasped and act surprised. PUI.

and then FINALLY, it was back to the hotel at 3.30 a.m. and the nonsense doesn't end there cuz with 5 people around, it meant the 3 ladies on the bed and 2 guys on the floor. so we took out some sheets and they used that to sleep on. and then i pushed my mum off the bed and she fell on my cousin. HAHA.

i think we ALL eventually fell asleep at about 4.30 a.m. and i kept muttering to my mum to stop moving. cuz the bed springs very lousy not like SIMMONS where if your partner move you don't feel one. you know that one? the advertisement right, got tractor move on the mattress also the fella never wake up. then again its probably the dude, not the mattress. BUT NEVERMIND.

my mum and cousin took advantage of the free breakfast buffet while the us 3 continued sleeping. till about 11. then it was shower, change, pack up and lunch at another mall.

had rocking good chicken chop and apple juice. then bought some toiletries at watsons, then the bus ride home.

the buck did not end there cuz then i had to buy the gift from causeway which i saw yesterday but wasn't sure about. AND i ended up donating some to the great metro sale too. dammit.

well okay so the nehneh has stalked me on msn and is telling me to get ready now. :( what a bully.

:D:D:D it was a lovely weekend and the best bit is, its not over yet. :)

bye!

wandered around for a bit and he got a (fake) (but nice!) zoo york t- shirt for $7.90! cheap cheap buy buy! hurhur.

then we wandered around ikea... got SALE! lalala. but didn't buy anything cuz at the last minute the two monkeys namely fahrur and hafiz lim asked me to join them for dinner and coffee&chat session. so don't want big big cushions to lug around la. so unglam.

yeap so off to city hall it was where we walked around for a bit and got me new blusher cuz my current one is smushed to pieces! yes i don't use much make- up gadgets but blusher is important okayyyyyyyy. and BTW there's this shop in queensway shopping centre, second floor, that sells goddamn cheap toiletries. i'm so doing next toiletry shopping there. again. cheap cheap buy buy!

wow its taking me almost an hour to blog this. msn is eveeeeeeeeeiil.

i want to sing a song. but there is no tune in my head. only this.

oh yes and fahrur, thanks for pizza and coffee. you are the bomb. panjang umurnya serta murah rezeki (long live and umm, much prosperity? aiya something like that la). hao hao. hen hao.

but case in point; stop touching hafiz. at least not in front of me okay? hahaha.

had a lovely time, a lovely day, and i see more lovely days to come. and its getting harder and harder to stop grinning so widely cuz everyone and everything makes me so happy everyday. :)

nights everyone. mucho love.

oh yes, and THE HIPPIES WON AMAZING RACE WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO! CHACHAOOOOOOOO!

Thursday, May 18, 2006

i will feel a glow just thinking of you

a phone call at 3.30. "sayang, get ready! i will meet you at your void deck!"

hahaha and hence begun the amazing race for me to get ready. fortunately i already had a few tops in mind so it was a jiffy. nonetheless, he had a 20 minutes or so wait at the void deck and coincidentally while waiting, the rubbish truck paid a visit. :P

gave me two options of which one wasn't viable due to my lack of coldwear. you know how singapore cinemas are. an igloo. so dinner it was.

at MARCHE!!!!

i miss my sambal stingray, sluuuuuuuuurp

this is a damn nice caramel custard

then we walked around suntec for abit then we went to the sky garden. very lovely view. just sat there and talked for a bit. its nice to know we're at the point in our relationship where we can comfortably talk about the future, not OUR future, without ending up upset or angry. thank you for coming this far with me. its been a lovely, lovely ride.

and while we were there, WHOOPEEDOO! the fountain came ALIIIIIIIIIVE!

so phallic

chatted more and snapped some pics. then it was off to surprise part 2! though we already had dessert at marche, he had a second dessert in mind and he wasn't telling me where.

my favourite chocolate lava cake at TCC. has been renamed dark devotion. i don't care what its called as long as chocolate oozes out the minute i poke it. and it does. so yay.

had fancy smancy drinks too. namely an oreo mocha frappe that gave nehneh brain freeze, and my citrus apple paradise or something la. why make the name so cheem one? just call green apple soda cannot meh.

i recommend my drink if you have sweet, chocolatey desserts like i did. its so refreshing and washes away the sickly sweet taste on your tongue. very nice.

then it was the train ride home where we played 2 player snooker on my handphone. the only way we gained points is when either of us; "wrong first contact with cue ball", "pocketed wrong ball", or the best, "cue ball pocketed". so we were granting each other points this way. haha. i was telling him if we ever play pool at those places that charge hourly we'd go broke cuz we take an hour to just play one game. yes, we suck at pool.

its okay we rock at air hockey. hurhur.

so yeap, then it was walk back home and tomorrow i settle some school matters. he'll be gone over the weekend driving up to KL with his dad but i'd see him sunday for our friend's birthday party. i'll buy the gift nehneh, so don't worry. you just pay up. or else i stick chicken head at your door!

"eh then sunday i so tired la... come back from driving from KL..."
"hmm ya... then party how?"
"ya where is it ah?"
"pasir ris."
"wah so far!"
"can you get the car?"
"yeah my mum's... but wah i will be damn tired..."
"never mind nehneh i drive!"
"okok never mind i not tired already."

lovely night,

and an ever- lovely you.

Woah, almost paradise
We're knocking on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I could see forever in your eyes,
Paradise

Almost Paradise; Mike Reno

pooped

loop- de- loo, loop- de- lyeee...

hello everybody! i am home! and i am happy! and i am very very tanned. in fact, i'm almost orange. but no, hafiz is orange. i'm golden brown. HURHUR. suresh? can't tell. OOPS! seditious!

so we met at AMK station; 9.45 a.m. reached harbourfront at 10ish, decided to eat cuz we were all hungry for SPICY food! in the end nehneh had thosai, hafiz had nasi lemak and i had spicy spicy mee soto with giant begedil. mmmm.

then off to the beach we were! spent almost 5 hours in the blistering heat (WHO prayed for no rain? hmm hmm hmm?). played frisbee, sang emo songs, techno songs, old songs, all songs. even reduced ourselves to mat&minah hiphop dancing. and discussed body hair. ummph.

made fun of UWC kids, secondary school kids, kids. in general. we're very mean. i am kelly rowland, suresh is michelle and hafiz is beyonce. together, we're destiny's child.

kelly, can you handle this?
michelle, can you handle this?
beyonce, can you handle this?
i don't think you can hadle this WOOOOOOOOOO!

made our sandwiches; peanut butter and seafood. and some biscuits & chocolate bread. satisfyingly cheap. :D

changed up and then it was bus & train ride home. for them. for me it was off to dhoby ghout to meet the apunehneh!

had dinner at fig&olive, had the fish and chips but his were better; bacon beef something or the other. then it was coffee club for muddy mud pie, then istana park for chitterchatter.

exhausting day. but very fulfilling. ran at the beach too. not bad at all. since i haven't ran in years. okay fine months. played frisbee and that was fun too. oh yes! how can i forget. played Heart Attack with pakao cards. very noisy game. 3 of us play like got 10 people. and each time someone shouts HEART ATTACK! cards fly everywhere. hahaha. and hafiz will scream. hahahahaha. gotta love that game.

i am very very tired but very very happy. and the best part is my lovely day ain't over, cuz tonight got champs league match final- Barca vs Arsenal. goals by Ronaldinho and Henry; and my day is sealed.

soccer, sunshine, laughter, sea, sand, love, friends. :))

Sunday, Monday, Happy Days,

Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days,

Thursday, Friday, Happy Days,

Saturday, what a day,

Rockin all week with you

Happy Days; Charles Fox

Wednesday, May 17, 2006

no posts yesterday for it was, afterall, a relatively non- descript day. spent the day at home, mostly napping and watching tv. i have my lazy days, when i can't even be bothered to step out onto the corridor.

but today is different! today is beach + frisbee + picnic + fig&olive dinner + boys, boys, all types of boys.

more later. toodles!

I'm movin', I'm comin'

Can you hear what I hear?

It's calling you my dear out of reach

(Take me to my beach)

I can hear it calling you

I'm comin' not drowning, swimming closer to you

let there be love

ya kun breakfast; half- boiled eggs rock. pasta for dinner, and a round of air hockey for thrills. lots of laughs in between and thereafter. coffee at starbucks. more laughs.

and that's what i love most; laughter, and you. :)

And when you can't quite match your clothes

Or when you laugh at your own jokes

That's when I love you

I love you, more than you'll know

That's When I Love You; Anne Murray

a day for moms

so due to her impatience and overexcitedness, she saw her gifts at home. namely a watch, and a photo scrapbook.

nonetheless she was obliged to feign surprise while posing with the gift at thai express, where we had lunch/ dinner.

and here is the watch.

FAIL! cannot be watch model this one. look like she broke her elbow hor? hahaha.

then we walked around plaza singapura. ONLY. and we ended up with like a billion plastic bags. my mum lost her mind and splurged like crazy. like get second progress package like that.

genetically shopaholics

but i'm not complaining cuz i got two tops and a scarf. :D dizzie will hate the scarf. why? cuz its polka dot! hurhur.

she got 3 tops, 2 pants, heels and a handbag. and socks. so ya. don't blame my shopping addiction on me.

after the whirlwind of shopping we calmed ourselves down in a nice little place aptly called tea cosy.

cakes, glass- painted lamps, antique furniture and vintage stuff. and a baby blue drink for her (with baby doll) and root beer float for me. MMM MMM.

and now we're home and safe and sound and happy.

next time you go out beware. watch out for this wanted person.

eats babies.

:D happy moms' day!

and again, this is what i love about Liverpool. the drama, the tension, the high- strung action and of course, the beautiful, beautiful shots by Captain Fantastic that only serve to remind us that HE, is the MerseyBoy.

a goal down from a Carragher own goal. Two goals down from a Reina fumble. 2- 1 thanks to Cisse. equaliser, from Stevie G. then a fluke of the most dangerous magnitude by konchesky. 3-2 down and its already 90th minute. and at the 91st minute, MerseyBoy pulls a cracker from 30 yards and ram home an equaliser, which led to 30 minutes extra time, and finally, penalties. and the rest as they say, is history.

Liverpool have done it again. never boring, with such finesse, determination and courage which when undetected, sends thousands across the world into cardiac arrests. A Liverpool win is never just a win, its beautiful, delightful, tantalising and the absolutely most memorable game of 22 men chasing ball you can ever imagine.

You'll Never Walk Alone; not with the Kop behind you.

winners, yet again; winners always in my heart

Saturday, May 13, 2006

drumrolls, please

why, you ask. well ladies and gentlemen, mark this date in history for today, me, i, moi, saya, wo, amma (okay i dunno what's tamil for me), wore a dress! YES! a dress!

so pretty and elegant, i know

okay la so maybe not so exciting but exciting for me okay. i wore WEDGES (the closest healthy imitation of heels i.e. fake height enhancement), a DRESS and carried a HANDBAG! AND I DID NOT SPRAIN MY ANKLE!!!!!!!!! NYEAHAHAHAHAHHAA.

nor did i dislocate my shoulder, snapped my neck, tore a ligament, etc. in other words, an accident- free day as a girl! A FIRST IN HISTORY! WHOO HOOOOOOOOOO!

okay so. that aside. we watched mission impossible 3! haha! okay la it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. coulda been worse.

when he first started on his mission (he here being tom cruise, not suresh) i whispered to the maplek, "why can't he just get a normal job, like a PE teacher or something?"

hahaha and then one bit when the wife tried to save tom cruise with CPR and the movie just dragged out the moments i said, "eh faster la wake up i want to pee." cuz clearly, he was going to wake up and clearly, movie ends when he does. SO GET UP DUDE! I NEEDA PEE!

okay so i peed. oh and i actually clapped when it ended. cuz i could pee!

pee aside the maplek JUMPED in his seat! during the movie! DAMN FUNNY CAN. HAHAHAHHAHA I'M SUPPOSED TO DO THAT.

the dingdong who sprang from his seat

so tom cruise was hiding and was gonna shoot the baddie and the baddie pops up from the side. all the while, absolute silence and suspense music in the background. typical la. and they even showed the shadow of the dude so i wasn't shocked. by the nehneh was. he jumped like, right OFF his seat can. like got spring suddenly eject him. i burst out laughing and couldn't stop even after the movie ended. it was so violent i thought he was going to drop the popcorn. hahahaha.

and to think prior to that when the woman was gonna be killed i was covering my face when he took my hands away and held it. so i shut my eyes. and sorta opened one eye. aiya. i cannot watch this kind of high- strung, stressful movie. I AM NEUROTIC CAN.

so ya. he action action stop me from covering my eyes then later on he himself shocked. HURHUR.

okay then after that we walked around suntec and WALLA! i got a book!

unhealthy obssession

so yes then we headed to esplanade for thai express. oh and we got stuff for mum's day, cards, ribbons, etc. fun!

i miss thai express

had the seafood bbq platter. its huge but damn filling. and the spicy cili padi lime dip is DA BOMB. and of course, my darlin' fish sauce. sigh. what would i be without you beybehhhh... the thought alone might break mehhhh... and i don't wanna go crazeyyyyhh... so come on fish sauce put on meee (rice?), beybehhhh...

guess the song and win a cookie!

so anyway yes. DRESS!

very feeling- feeling 50s

i like the dress though it makes me look like i have a tummy. but i like! its green and its comfortable and i can play soccer in toys'r'us innit so i'm cool.

AND YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY today i joined kickboxing at amore woodlands. :D:D:D

and hopefully next sem i will join nussoccer for real. NO EMPTY TALK THIS TIME. hopefully world cup will inspire me.

alalalalalalala.

i very happy! project finish! and though mum don't read my blog over weekends for safety purposes i shall not disclose details as yet. tomorrow la. national secret can. its like lee kuan yew clone. must hide deep deep.

umm okay so anyway today got liverpool match! versus west ham! CUP FINAL! and punters are betting AGAINST liverpool. BAHHHHHHHHHH. alonso hat- trick and gerard brace. and maybe a special from kewell and a superb volley from riise. that's... 7 goals. ah can la. enough.

7-6 also never mind. as long as win. :D okay game starts soon. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LIVERPUDLIANS!

"are you happy?"

"yes!"

"did you have a good time?"

"yup... not itchy anymore."

its yesterday once more

just got back from movie date with the nehneh.

we're back on track, back to old times. its like falling in love again and again and again.

more later, photos included. for now let me swoon in solitude. :))

It still feels like our first night together

Feels like the first kiss

It's getting better baby

No one can better this

Still holding on

You're still the one

First time our eyes met

Same feeling I get

Only feels much stronger

I wanna love you longer

Please Forgive Me; Bryan Adams

better together

project almost done with wheewheewhee!

first thing tomorrow is to apply finishing touches. maybe i'd snap a few pics and show you guys. its simple and all that but i like it. its kitschy. and i LOVE kitschy.

the whole day was spent napping, sending an application form for a 10- day job, and more napping. and then collected the second part of the project. dumdeeda.

slow day it is but i got movie plans for tomorrow! yes! movies! we're off to the movies! whee! its been yonks since i last went. now i can't decide whether to catch MI3 (as the boy so wishes) or Paradise Now. the latter seems mighty interesting and well... MI3 is something i'm not exactly in a hurry to catch. oh well. we shall know tomorrow.

a few friends having their 21st parties and i was just wondering about mine. then i remembered that mum had already suggested a 3d2n chalet at aloha pasir ris. huge bungalows, i don't mind. and a pool! whee!

umpphh okay yea. but you know what i love? THEME PARTIES! why? cuz i am KITSCHY y'all, KITSCHY.

i would LOVE a Big Bird party, NO not big dingdongs dangling all around (well okay come to think of it...) but Big Bird! the darlin' birdie from Sesame Street! and everyone have to wear yellow and i'd make corny, feathery party hats. hurhur.

or maybe Leather&Lace. it'll be kinda gothic/ victorian. really cool. or Retro! i MUST have a retro party someday. i was born to have a retro party, blasting beatles all night long. mm mmm.

its fun to think of parties, especially now when there's nothing else for me to do so i can pretty much, yeap, think of whatever i want, even parties. this brain is on vacation!

OHHOHOHOHOOHOH and i am so EXCITED! since tioman has been cancelled (his dad thinks suresh will drown in the clear waters of tioman scuba- diving and increasingly, i'm thinking maybe there is some truth in his fears), we've planned something else. and if it goes as planned there will a 3d2n trip and that 2 nights will be spent at my cousin's in Port Dickson. LOVELEIH. now if only we could go langkawi. oh well.

and there's that usp bintan trip thingy in late june. AND CAN I JUST SAY,

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WORLD CUP!

so many things to look forward to. and i should get down to replying the kind people from AWARE. make myself useful at least. and then there's tuition again in july, then PGP! and that means ROOM DECOR AGAIN!

so exciting. and i just watched toy story on channel 5. one of my favouritest animated film!

TO INFINITY, AND BEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOND!

you know i've always wanted a Buzz Lightyear toy. the one that you can press buttons then come out wings then can talk one. oh and a buzz lightyear raincoat. hmm.

next on the list of things to do will DEFINITELY be to clean this room up. maybe a weekday. when its bright and sunny. rainy days make me sleepy.

and to swim! and to play frisbee! and to play air hockey! and to run and go to the gym and be less fat. but DAMN i just had a kitkat chunky just now. those things are just THE BOMB.

maybe i should go make myself instant noodles. hmm. oh and i was just reading old blog entries yesterday and i realized that half the time on this blog, i sound like i'm typing on valium in a highly oxygenated region. haha.

and in less interesting news, i've been with the maplek for a very, very long time (in my books) and true to my nature, i'm feeling the itch. not to leave, but to get angry, get upset, etc etc fill in the blanks with other unhappy things that eventually lead to me thinking i don't love him anymore and THE END.

but times are a- changing. this time when i feel it i know it so i tell him about it and we will work this out together. its a terrible habit really. i can't see the same person for more than a few months. well actually i can. thing is when i start finding faults, i supersize it to this huge issue that actually doesn't matter and doesn't affect the relationship or how i feel for him. but when i see mistakes, i start thinking, "oh this is no longer working we have so many problems maybe its best to end it". and that's just the fiza-who-gives-up-without-trying talking.

so that fiza is gone and this is the new and improved fiza v. 1.2 so let's hope it works. or else we really need to upgrade my systems again, pronto.

you would think having a perfect boyfriend was enough. tsk tsk tsk.

anyway in other news i got present pt. 2! he got me a tee to go with the cap, a white brasil tee. why wouldn't i be excited for the world cup, you tell me?

and FA Cup final tomorrow! come on la liverpool! 7-0! hurhur.

okay i shall go occupy my time thinking of things to do with the maplek tomorrow. :D and what to wear. byebye!

Thursday, May 11, 2006

sometimes the fear of losing something you love the most freezes you in your place and you don't even realize your cheeks are wet and your heart beats so fast your head hurts and you remain frozen, unable to even wipe the tears.

only sometimes.

its not you, its me

home. ready to complete what i set out to do. halfway through project, will be done soon i think.

am tired. and hungry. i'm staaaaaaarving. zinger where are you.

i had a good time with the secondary school people. lunch at cahaya then chatter at gelare. short and sweet, the way i like it.

met the maplek after that and walked around town buying our mothers' day stuff. then it was home.

something about today... i'm not happy about it. maybe starting off the day knowing chris daughtry was out of AI wasn't a good idea.

but i know its more than just that.

oh well.

i can't be happy all the time, can i? maybe these irrationally unhappy days are to remind me how nice irrationally (and excessively) happy days are.

but no, that doesn't make me feel any better. so hopefully a zinger and cleo will cheer me up.

no pics of the gessians cuz i'm too lazy. maybe later.

bah.

just to let you guys know that yeah, chris daughtry IS out. since spoiler is already on my tagboard. (:D to maria!) i'm shocked, pissed, and i refuse to watch today's results how.

but then i remind myself that this is american idol, and the voters are the same people who kept george bush as their president, so hey.

Wednesday, May 10, 2006

this just in

1. halfway- through project.

2. room is not cleaned. hurhur.

3. LUNCH WITH GESS TRACKERS TOMORROW HWEEEE! namely shamini and banananananana. I MISSSSSSSSS YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. two.

4. bbq/ chalet was fun! met the maplek at YCK and drove down to changchangchangi. chang is elephant in thailand. hoo yeah. elephant beer anyone?

5. lots of kittens and one cat. AND SOME IDIOT TIED A STRING AROUND ONE OF THE KITTENS NECK!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! thing is when we first got there the kittens were all fine and dandy. then later in the night we noticed one of the kittens had a string tied around its neck. and of all things not to have at a bbq; scissors. -_- but i hope they figure out a way to get rid of the strangulating thing. its damn tight la. CRAZY SICK BASTARD I HOPE YOU DIE. there is no kids within the vicinity so whoever did that was a matured, thinking man. who hasn't wanked of late so decided to vent his sexual inabilities on a hapless kitten. i hope one day your dick gets tangled into a knot so tight it loses all blood supply, turns blue, withers, and dies. DIE. you stupid prick.

okay i know i very angry but it was my favourite type of kitten, the marmalade (fine ORANGE) coloured ones. they are oh so pretty and ITS A KITTEN and it didn't do anything to you right!?!? so why harm it!??! stupid. stupid. stupid.

okay so rant asides, here's pictures. lunch tomorrow then MOTHERS' DAY SHOPPING. yes mum i know you read this so if you try to sneak a peek at what i buy for you tomorrow i'm gonna give you a heart attack ala the ones i give you every night or the special one i gave to ayah many fathers' day ago. :))

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANG YUCHEN!

random

i have found a new love! random story generators! here's some good ones i've came up with so far. umm you guys can go google story generator and have fun!

~~~

Once upon a time about a month ago in my bedroom. I was half asleep when I realized that someone was watching me. You have probably had that experience before. I felt nervous and upset, and I knew that soon I would have to go to sleep. My friend Trena had called me the previous day, and told me all about Kelsey's problem with his father, and I was a little worried about my sanity. Then, all of a sudden, I saw behind a tree what I realized was my worst nightmare, and right then I knew I was invincible! I remembered what my doctor had told me about a situation like this. It was very important that I not throw up all over everyone. Very calmly, I bent over and threw up and waved my arms in the air. Before I knew it, I was in the hospital, and I discovered that I was happy. So you see, I really wasn't cut out for things like this, and I decided I had to tell you all about it.

~~~

Yesterday, Suresh and I went to the beach. We had a really outside time! First, we conceived with my fruit. Then we ran down to the ocean and went driving. Afterward, we barbequed some thosai for lunch. Before the sun set we had time to shake on the drawer. We were really delirious to come home. We are hoping to go to the beach again soon!

~~~

One delirious summer day at the carpark you see the most warm creature you have ever seen. His name is Suresh , and every move he makes just turns you on more and more. You nudge your best friend hafiz and say, "Wow, that has to be the most shy body I have ever seen. Suddenly, he looks in your direction and starts walking right towards you!!! he says, "I noticed you staring at me from over there. I just had to tell you, that I think you are so hilarious , and was wondering if you'd like to go to void deck with me and read ?" With a stupid smile on your face you say, "i rock balls. " and go with him. When you finally get to void deck , he moves closer to you, and gives you the biggest kiss ever. The two of you are passionately kissing, when you feel a still hit you on the back of the head. You open your eyes to find out it's all a dream.

~~~

and i simply love, love, love this one.

A Timely Demise

One day there was a how nap. The paternal lump was quite content to live in a end and eat flaws.

Suddenly, there was a libidinous knocking sound coming from the library. The glamour jumped in fright. It decided to tax to the routine, and got there just in time to see a/an outspoken finisher standing there! The combing waved atortuous play and the inequality turned into a indolent evangelist. One quite unable to eventuality!

The faculty shimmered and disappeared, leaving a few habitats in its place. The maestro picked up the bicycles and popped one into her neck. The gift of speech befell the stylist, who exclaimed,

"What a erect day! I think I shall pick restaurants”.

Off went the hilarious book, rapidly running and skipping, finally tripping on a leggy paper and toppling headlong into a scary solution. Needless to say, it succumbed to a fanciful death.

The moral of this story?

If you are thinking of becoming a perfume, never open a card until you are sure there is no powdery sugar lying in wait.Above all, live intensely. The sweets you eat may be your last!

~~~

haha okay back to 'work'! yesyes am working on a project. of sorts. :D

its been a long day. fruitful day, nothing very eventful. clementi, school, yakyak, home, change, hospital, bedok, food, bus, train, home.

didn't play frisbee cuz it rained. made all sorts of messy plans for the holidays. i feel unfit. argh. i need to run. and swim. and play frisbee. and work out in the gym.

a part of me wants to try- out for soccer (again) next sem. or maybe touch rugby. or at least join a sports club of sorts. but another part of me knows i'm too lazy and sooner or later i'll stop going for training. OR i could change this. AIYA DUNNO LA.

i suck. i am lazy. gah.

okay i dunno why i'm so worked up over this. must be the 3 kitkat chunkys and snickers almond and other random gunk i've eaten. and also the fact that i can't run macritchie anymore like i used too. wahhhhhhhhh i miss my old fit self! i want to run! okay i will run. at least until i get bored again and decide to sleep in instead.

okay run.

okay hmm. tomorrow i clean room, do some random form of exercise, then go to changi for yc's barbeque as promised. and thursday is either gym/ swim/ frisbee.

we'll see how long this last ah. i want instant results la. maybe i should join kickboxing! HAIIIIIIIIIYAK!

maybe maybe maybe. i am all talk and all shit. no results. GAH.

Singapore opposition politician arrested for allegedly threatening election officials

By EN-LAI YEOH Associated Press Writer

SINGAPORE (AP) -- A Singapore opposition politician was arrested Sunday for allegedly threatening the country's election officials, a day after he failed to win a seat in national elections, an aide said.

Workers' Party candidate James Gomez was arrested Sunday for alleged "criminal intimidation," his aide Jacob George said. Gomez was attempting to leave the country but was stopped by immigration officials, who turned him over to the police.

"We don't know the specifics, but it could be due to the minority certificate," said George, referring to an incident when Gomez initially accused officials of misplacing his election papers more than a week before Saturday's election.

He subsequently apologized after security camera footage showed he put the form into his bag. The academic claimed he was distracted.

Gomez was part of a five-member Workers' Party team that contested a multimember ward against the ruling People's Action Party, where a minority candidate is compulsory.

On Saturday, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's PAP won 82 of 84 seats in Singapore's 10th general elections since independence in 1965.

"Police received a complaint against James Gomez from the Elections Department, and police are investigating," said police spokeswoman Siow Cheng Cheng. She did not elaborate.

A security official, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with policy, said Gomez has not been charged. If found guilty for criminal intimidation, Gomez could be jailed for up to seven years.

It is not immediately clear why the elections department waited till after the polls to file the complaint.

The incident was played up by ruling party politicians and local media, which rarely deviate from the government line.

Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew, called Gomez, 40, "a liar" and a "bad egg."
"He's not a fool ... He's saying he's got brains," elder statesman Lee was quoted on state-broadcaster Channel NewsAsia's Web site as saying. "Well, what do you use those brains for?"

Lee is the father of the current prime minister and wields considerable influence as "Minister Mentor" in his son's cabinet.

The PAP said they targeted Gomez, a researcher with a Stockholm-based institute, as it was an issue of credibility."

i will not blog politics. i have no opinion on this matter, at least no opinion that will not lead to contest, debate and a lifetime in exile. :)

lightning lightning

okay so ALL the joy from yesterday's beach outing has dissipated and i'm just permanently scowling in disgust. pui.

i don't think 2 wins is enough but what do i know, measly girl who can't vote because "you haven't turned 21 years as of 01/01/06"?

but it was very very very nice to hear shouts of joy and random cheering from all over my neighbourhood when they announced Potong Pasir's results. bestbest. someone shouted, "DIE YOU PAP!" hahaha.

some opposition is better than nothing but opposition capable of little and with such a small voice can't do much either. i understand the issue of credibility but at the same time i think people expect opposition to deliver what PAP deliver. this fear of change will only impede progress. especially if we base our votes on menial things like, "oh yesterday chercher gave me sweet so today i vote for her!" or "that chercher never come to my class only wave wave from the other levels!" then we have alot to worry about. trucks and vans and loudhailers do not maketh a political campaign.

see i'm still too angry and riled up to be able to sincerely type out a happy tralalala post about my day at the beach. so i'll just dose out the pictures, and trust you me, i had a blast. be damned that it fell on polling day.

us.

boys from brazil. HOT okay. i like paparazzi i know but that's only because i want to marry like 4 of them.

a beautiful soccer image to bring home; from the u20 teams in the semis. taking penalties.

boys from brazil in action. they were damn good la. bicycle kicks are like the norm and this dude, sidney, packs a power shot that might snap your wrist off if you tried to stop it by hand.

battling the heat.

see? i was happy. WAS. i am not anymore. and PAP says i'm supposed to be happy under them. ah pui.

Saturday, May 06, 2006

spent almost the entire day at sentosa without once touching the water, and hardly touching the sand, and barely kissed by sun. haha.

had a blast but am a bit riled up by politics and whatnots. so i shall rest and hope for a better tomorrow. and BTW, am i the only one noticing that there is lightning all over singapore? no thunder, no rain, no drizzle. just LIGHTNING.

if that's not a sign, i dunno what is. you think they control our weather too? maybe singapore is actually one big giant virtual bubble, and what we have is pretend- atmosphere, pretend- weather and pretend- democracy. OOPS!

i go sleep now.

easy peasy japanesey

what a madcap day today turned out to be! i've been out the whole day but thank god for chuckies, my feet feel no pain. hoo yeah. converse rocks my balls.

so met the maplek at 11, had lunch at far east- shared a roti john cheese and a teh tarik each, he then bought a mike gayle *wags finger* from the newly opened secondhand bookstore near where we ate, then we made our way to wisma, taka and finally, cineleisure. AIR HOCKEY! 3 PUCK AIR HOCKEY! YAYYYYYYYYY! we played like 4 consecutive rounds of which he won once, we drew once and i won twice! whee!

then we played house of dead which i SUCK at cuz i died first. THE ZOMBIES ARE DAMN SCARY OKAY. nehneh they slash your screen one. so yeah then we played 2 more rounds of air hockey which we each won. so finaly tally means i won 3 out of 6 games and so i self- declare myself the air hockey champion.

air hockey champion wins cow.

many colourful cows.

yay!

that was walk to plaza singapura where we ended up slacking at gelare with a cuppa lemon tea and these for company.

after that was a walkabout (ala politicians hurhur) then he headed home where i went back to town and met the boys.

4 boys, a girl, and lots of japanese food.

japanese food.

so i suck cuz i used a fork but hey chopsticks are for chinks! hoohoo! and miso soup makes boys crazy cuz they were dancing to techno by the end of the dinner. ack.

so it was mccafe for a bit before jap food, where we had quite a spirited debate on politics, with the ocassional smattering of hokkien and other colourful verbs of the ghetto end of the french language spectrum. :D while waiting for our guest of honours; norm and faliq.

after jap food it was borders for some books and then mccafe again for some lepaking. this time IQ level of conversation deteriorated tremendously (blame the hour, blame the food, blame the company) and we were talking about NIE, NUS, NTU, PRCs, dieting, white meat/ red meat, picnics, in no particular order. this situation was further worsened in the train ride when soccer, shit, pillows, indians, wrestling, rikishi, yokozuna, ping- pong, rally riots and other random nonsense were added into the broth.

all in all, one mad, mad night. but lovely nonetheless, lots of thanks and love to the boys who took the northline train back to accompany me home. :)) very sweet of all you.

so i'm happy (can't you tell? and um, what's new) and tomorrow more joy awaits in the form of beach, new top, new bottom, new cap and boys from brazil. and the lovelylovely companion of the maplek whom i've yet to spend proper quality time with of late. guilty as charged, but i love you. bangla shoes and all. :P

shiny happy people (person?) carrying handbag.

vindictive

its been a "thing" for me to get supersick during exam period. supersick to point of bedridden so the flu bug during reading week and middle of exams don't count. miraculously i've had a relatively healthy reading week and exam period.

and exam ends and BAM! all the shit pours. but god bless the timing cuz at least i CAN be bedridden without guilt. yesterday's causeway trip was short and rather lifeless cuz i was feeling too out of it. sore throat does that to you. so i didn't eat and all i had was dinner- fish soup.

then this morning i woke up with cramps and backache! yay! and since i didn't eat much yesterday, inevitably, it came with the best friend gastric! so out comes yellow puke! whoo hoo!

this time round it was 2 rounds of puke. one yellow and the other slightly orangey. okay ew. sorry.

so yes bedridden i was. so once again plans with the boy was cancelled. :( no sembawang park, no cineleisure arcade. but if i'm well tomorrow looks like it could be a looooooong day.

dizzie want to join us or not? we have to go pgp in the morning to take a fridge (umm yeah) from a friend then we're off to town after. maybe you could join us after prayers. let me know. and after that town thing i'll be meeting with the peejay clan for dinner, coffee and according to the mat chink; "lepak- ing". he is SO mat now it is beyond me. BEYOND!

then saturday is boys from braziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil... helloooooooooo boys! and hellooooooooo beach! :D i'm still rather torn as to whether to stay the whole night till 8ish, then head home, or leave slightly early and meet the gan eng seng clan. i really want to meet them but its at simpang bedok for one, and i'll be pooped for two, and i already promised saturday to suresh (haha like i betrothed my saturday to him) so i dunno whether it'll be all too nice to cut short our day out. i'll check with him again.

then i'm free till next week comes along and all sorts of jumbled up plans arise again. :D and hopefully no cramps/ flu/ cough/ sore throat comes along to spoil it all.

tomorrow is THE official end of exams so for those with papers tomorrow; BOOWHIZZA and kick some ass! its time to partay. ;)

started off from zara to wisma to lido to taka to heerens to cineleseisure where we killed our arms playing 4 rounds of air hockey and 1 round of house of the dead, then far east plaza, lido again and then finally, scotts for dinner and gift exchange. :D

sounds curt but trust me it was anything but. exhaustion is the order of the day but we are too happy to care. air hockey is fun! i suck at shooting zombies. :( cuz i'm too busy telling them to go away! go away! hahaha.

gift exchange was funfunfun! whole day was fun. but fun cannot be explained in words. so here goes...
