2010-11-23T22:35:00.004+08:00

Sheesh. Cant believe Fb is down now. Just when i waited all day long to login to play Sorority Life.
URGH.

ok eye candy time. watched Harry Potter & the Deathly Hollows last night. too dark for my liking & a bit too slow @ same parts, but action-packed all the same. wish Ron had more parts for his humor tho.

& look at Emma Watson's latest look @ the movie premiere in London. Short hair! Gonna miss her lovely mass of orangey curls.. she'll all grown up now eh. Cant believe she looked so small & cute in the 1st Harry Potter movie.

when will FB be up?!!!

ARGH.

you just gotta ignite.... the light.... and let it shine..

2010-11-03T11:42:00.005+08:00

Forget to add that i'm currently a huge fan & addict of Sorority Life!
Haha! the happening things in my life now.. sheesh.

My current character, Mayako in her red devil Halloween costume :) and in my most favourite get-up, woodland faerie theme..

I seriously need to get a life... dont i? lol.

well, i can't believe that i would keep.. keep you from flying.

2010-11-03T10:33:00.008+08:00

pumping to Tori Amos- 1,000 oceans

Well here goes nothing. I've decided to return to the blogging world.
Reality check: the last i blogged here was before THE BIG DAY n the post didnt sound that happy either.. haha..hmmm.. pre-wedding jitters obviously.

so after reading back all the posts i wrote wayy back in 2005, i wondered to myself... 5 years from now, i wanna read what happened to me now too.. and u n i know, u cant keep all the memories inside ur head.. there are just too many of them.. i might remember the major ones but the little little ones that do bring smiles .. hey, they deserve a memory place too. n here i am... lets do this!

so the last time i blogged, i was single, not available, about to get married to my fiance and ready to take any chance to run far far away to break down.. wow. what i didnt blog about was how THE BIG DAY went n the after part of cuz... n its already going to be my 1 year wedding anni (19th Dec). hmmmm... so many things to blog about those tho.. perhaps ill do so slowly in the next posts, just to keep the memories alive...

the one i remembered vividly was inside the wedding car, pulling away from my parents' place after i hugged them n all and i cried like a little girl who lost her smelly pillow inside that car. dangs. bet not everyone knew about that emo part. hahaha. i just couldnt believe i wont be living with the Zulus anymore and i still cant believe even to this day. yes damn right, i do miss my house.. it was a place i could call "Home".. right now, im just waiting impatiently for Jade Spring to be finished building and we can move in there......... next year.. time gonna pass very fast....

please God make it faster.. even if we dont have $$ to renovate our house! Haha.

one of the many wedding pixxy with my handsome Hub :) more @ my Facebook. yeah its all abt Facebooking now isnt huh..

and everything, everything ends..

2009-12-06T16:08:00.004+08:00

please God,
i am not ready yet.
i feel like running away.
im so scared.
please give me some strength.
i just feel like running away to somewhere far, far away.. where i can find myself again.
find who i am again.
please, God.

This time baby, i'll be bulletproof..

2009-08-16T20:08:00.007+08:00

Reality check.
Its only 4 months and 3 days to the Big Day.
and honestly? i'm scared.

and i cannot explain this fear. fear of commitment? nope.fear of not having to live with my family? well... maybe yeah. will definitely miss talking late at night with my sis till we sleep and teasing my dad non-stop and my mum's hugs and... everything that's home.

other than that? financial-wise? yeah maybe that too. they always say money's never enough eh. well im just relieved and grateful that i've a decent job with a decent pay cuz i know how hard for those out there whose trying to find a job. ooh, i wish i will never be in that sucky period.

and we have still yet to book our honeymoon. not to mention it'll be in the peak period, yo. and we're hoping to escape x'mas & new year's crowd too.
so maybe i do have the wedding jitters. i bet all brides do. and grooms too (although they've these HUGE men egos so they dont really wanna confess it lol).

but still, its quite exciting to have such a big event to plan and execute yeah? (not to mention the stress & loads of money spent) but hell yeah i'm kinda looking forward to it, fear or no fear :)

on the other hand, i think the movie Up was great! nicest animation movie after Finding Nemo & Ice Age 1. really enjoyed it. dont mind watching it again definitely :)
and so im gonna end this post by quoting a line from the movie...
"A wilderness explorer is a friend to all, be it bird or fish or tiny mole!" ;)

Wont the real Edward Cullen come take me away to somewhere far?

2009-01-11T16:17:00.011+08:00

"I'm standing on the bridge ,
I'm waiting in the dark ,
I thought that you'd be here by now ..

There's nothing but the rain ,
No footsteps on the ground ,
I'm listening, but there's no sound ..

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home ...." (Avril Lavinge - I'm With You)

this is so what i'm feeling right now.
i tried to shrug it away yesterday. i tried. thus the cheerful hollywood's mummies' post.
but i cant pretend today.
i feel so hollow.
so lost.
like something wonderful has been horribly snatched away from me.
i guess nobody's perfect no matter how highly you think of that person.
and this life.. this life is just a fad.
what with the killing of many innocents in Gaza...
WHY??
so let's pray. just pray. doesnt have to be in arabic. just say it in your own language.
He knows. He understands.
and maybe...
just maybe, everything will be alright in due time.
and the stars will shine brightly again.......

"Hollywood's Yummy Mummies?"

2009-01-10T14:41:00.017+08:00

so today's hot topic would be Hollywood's starlets mummies who look like they've never given birth before, given their super slim figures plus that dazzling "im a superwoman" glow they never fail to have. envy, envy? nah. see it as, MOTIVATION! :D

in random order:

Hot Mummy Number 1: Angelina Jolie, photo taken on the 4th October 2008 , 2nd pic on 9th January 2009. She has 3 children with Brad Pitt: 2 daughters,Shiloh & Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt(twin) and 1 son,Knox Léon Jolie-Pitt(the other twin).the rest: Pax, Maddox & Zahara are adopted.

Hot Mummy Number 3: Gwen Stefani, photo taken on 5th September 2007,2nd pic on Oct 25, 2007.She has two sons with Gavin Rossdale: Kingston James McGregor Rossdale, born May 26 2006 and Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale, born August 21 2008.

or maybe they are not listed here, for eg. Heidi Klum, Katie Holmes, Reese Witherspoon, Halle Berry,etc....
mine? hmmmm.. well, i think my own mummy, the Nubian Queen *grins*

how did we get here?

2008-12-18T12:47:00.004+08:00

(note: skip this post if you're not a vamp lover.)

Edward Cullen: And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.
Isabella Swan: What a stupid lamb.
Edward Cullen: What a sick, masochistic lion.

those 3 lines were exactly the same from the novel. and just that 3 simple lines perfectly sum up the whole saga. ok i'm obsessed. and i lied of not wanting to read the books after Twilight. my sis' friend generously bought of her a hard cover of the sequel, New Moon, and once again, i spent less than 3 hours reading it non-stop. oh gosh.
I AM OBSESSED.

the sad thing is in the sequel, New Moon, (CAUTION SPOILER AHEAD) edward is mainly absent and its more of jacob the werewolf. hmm. i dont know how the director gonna go about that. maybe do book 2 and 3 together? we'll see. its coming out in 2010 anyway. bah. and i know whats gonna happen, having read the ending of the last book but still, watching something you've read is a breathtaking experience. thats if, the director didnt change so much of the original story.

Like for example, Queen of the Damned by author Anne Rice, my very first vampire obsession, the movie(year 2002) was entirely different in a way. Lestat De Lioncourt played by Stuart Townsend was my very first vampire love. sorry, it was not Lestat played by Tom Cruise in Interview With The Vampire that i fell for, i personally thought Stuart Townsend was more fitting as Lestat :)

then my second vampire love was the dark and suave vampire, Aubrey, who came from the book "Demon in my view" by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. now i would like to see that book turn into a movie. it was a great book, amazingly written by a teenager, because it was very mature and not teeny boppy mushy or anything like that. Aubrey is totally different from Edward, Aubrey is more lethal, something like the tracker James in Twilight, but Aubrey's dark side can be forgiven with his charming and alluring personality, just like Lestat's.

i can seriously go on and on for my obsession for vampires. i'm very lucky that i've got my super-patient fiance and my darling sister (although she wants to kill me for always trying to spoil the twilight saga since she has not watched it and have not finished reading the books) to share this obsession with else i think i'll be living in my own la la vampy land. and i think i better stop now and go back to reality.

wait. what if.. what if there's a vampire living in the same flat as you and he has been waiting, just waiting for the chance to talk to you?
hmm...............
bye!

you are my life now.

2008-12-16T22:37:00.005+08:00

i just HAVE to blog about this.
i read Twilight for less than 3 hours yesterday night.
and today, thanks to a certain hot someone *winks*, i got to watch the movie itself to compare it with the novel and boy, i was not disappointed, ok except the part that they didnt insert Paramore's Decode into any of the scenes! it only came out during the credits,bummer. the song suited into the scene when bella's memories were shown during the last part when edward was-oh! right, i shouldnt spoil the movie, sorry :P

anyway, edward cullen.
sigh.
you were just the way author stephanie meyer described you.
you were downright amazing.
sigh.
sigh.
ok and i couldnt resist and had to buy the novel for keepsake.
will i read the saga? hmmm. lets just say i've read the final novel Breaking Dawn's ending and im happy with it that way.
goodnight everyone!!
*beams*

i will be.

2008-12-13T11:37:00.004+08:00

It sucks being sick in a nice holiday month like now. I am NEVER, EVER going to go near a harmless-looking can of chilli tuna anymore. NEVER. and don't ever try eating bread plus chilli tuna with ice lemon tea on a very empty stomach. else you'll risk yourself ending up like me with sleepless nights of vomiting anything that gets into your tummy. even plain water. shrieks.

The past week had been a terrible trial for me. of all the weeks! it fell horribly on a nice one with a non-working monday. sigh. but all the same, i guess like what they say, "Every cloud has a silver lining". the Nubian Queen (a.k.a. dearest mummy for new readers) wisely consoled me by saying maybe i had done a lot of bad, bad things (yes, *hung my head in shame*) and God still loves me so He is giving me this chance to wash away those sins and to remember Him always. yeah. whimpers. i was too ashamed to reply her and just hugged her, thinking how wonderful she is and all the supportive, loving people around me are.

i will be back!

the Big Book of Secrets . . .

2008-11-09T15:35:00.013+08:00

yesterday's face painting at sentosa with mariah was exhausting but loads of fun.
despite the fact that i've not touched the paintbrush for a long time and i know my artistic skills sucks but painting on kids' and mothers' alike hands and legs were much much nicer than teaching a bunch of noisy lot. and the pay, i mean, who would wanna give you that much of money for just working for a day?

i was really nervous at first, what if the parents complain that their sons' spiderman's painting on his hand doesnt look like spiderman? the first few attempts were terrifiying but when the queue got longer and longer, the adrenaline just kicked in and we were painting non-stop. the kids were really cute, all kinds of races, and their parents were polite too.

anyway, we didnt had time for lunch, it was paint, paint,paint all the way so after the whole event was over, we took a break on the beach for a picnic and watched the sunset which was wonderful. we stayed till night to watch the stars, just lying down the beach and talked about almost everything. we also went shopping for chocs at candy empire, yum yum :)
thanks babe, i had loads of fun yesterday! and oh, mariah also brought me to her school, La Salle and finally i stepped inside the weird futuristic building with the weird tak-menjadi garden. haha. but it was still kinda cool. went home with wan who just finished performing at bugis and slept all the way in 170, was knocked out tired. but looking forward to the next face painting, big book of secrets event :)

okays, pictures below. plus pictures of the raya outing which are outdated but im just gonna post them anyway!

Our face-painting stall.

ladybug and butterfly.

while waiting for the event to start.

mariah's airbrush tatoo.

sunset and the big book of secrets.

Thursday morning (09/10/08)
after subuh, decided to take a nap before work. suddenly felt the fan was switched off, was about to scream at my sister when i heard " happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you " gosh, the Nubian Queen(mother) and sis presented a cake while i'm in bed and i think that was the first time ever the Nubian Queen brought food into the room since we're not allowed to!(nanti lipas cicak semut datang) heh. was delicious too, chocolate mint, yum. too bad father and bro couldnt be there, bro is still in 2 weeks camp confinement and father was at work. all the same, it was a really sweet surprise from my family since they planned it :)

still in my good mood, i set off to work, almost wishing i could whistle in happiness lol. once i reached my class, my primary 1 immediately launched into a super loud birthday song in malay. which was quite impressive since i've no malay students, mostly chinese except for 3 myanmar students. the funniest part was they pronounced "Hari Jadi" as "Hari Jari". i didnt had the heart to correct them while they were singing so i let them be =p

my primary 3s also sang me the most rowdiest birthday song and they even switched off the lights first to surprise me lol.(they got a scolding from a senior teacher from the chaos, poor things) anyway, received a whole bunch of lovely cards and some gifts with green ribbons (they know my fav colour) which i didnt really expect since it didnt happened on the other teachers' birthdays. guess i'm just lucky lol. the photo shows only some of the cards, i didnt get to take a shot of everything. thanks to all my devilish darlings :)

wan gave me a really special present which would last me a lifetime and i cant say it here or else it would not be special anymore. thanks, hon. and my sis gave me 2 LBD books which i like i like i like!! *gloats* we went to fetch her from work too on that same thursday, she's attached at CityHub Hotel in Little India at the moment and when we drove there, it was bustling with Deepavali activities. the festive lights were glistening with so many colours. was really lovely to watch from the car. we also drove past the suntec city and esplanade area and the whole night cityscape's view was breathtaking. wish i could have a night ride like that everyday. soon, soon ;)

overall, i guess being 23 doesnt make much of a difference.
but i'll do anything to go back to being 4 with my cupcake dolls and colouring books :)
ciao!

"Tak habis tak boleh balik..."

2008-10-04T19:35:00.006+08:00

While waiting for more guests to come, i might as well upload raya pics :)

my beloved family.

and the most, most loved Zulus whom i cant live without.

the 3 jaybons.

with the grandparents from my dad's side.

the female cousins from my dad's side.

us with the future in-laws. *shudders* scary. i was told to sit in between wan's neneks! i almost peed in my baju raya! lol.

with Pak Long from my mum's side, three other of his children are MIA. My bro was in camp so Wan replaced the "bujang" role :)

while wan's driving, we.....

Mrs Kinah Depp with her bro, Mastan & us, taken in her gorgeous pinkylicous room.

Classic couples' shot :)

Mak Ngah from my mum's side came over with her 3 children (my cousins) and her 11 grandchildren!( my nephews & nieces!). i feel so old :(

my cousins and their kids from my mum's side whom i've not seen for years, came over.

My younger aunt from my mum's side, Cik Opek, coincidencally i was wearing the same colour. sheesh. and there was a fan blowing behind me.

and more pictures to come!and yes, the Big Day's date is already confirmed by both parties :)

whoooooosh.

F1 Fever.

2008-09-27T20:30:00.008+08:00

ah yes, who can deny the F1 Fever? it's everywhere!
overrated? nah. not really to me. and wow, they even have F1 silat shows :)

btw, my sis is working at F1, at Gate 2 (Singapore Flyer Promenade Premier area), so if you're around there, do drop by the ticketing stand and say hi to her. we just bought a new Nikon camera so she's been taking photos like a maniac since yesterday. Sheesh.

too bad her F1 polo shirts must be returned back to SingTel after the whole thing is over. i'm thinking maybe they wanna rewash the shirts and sell them for merchandise? haha. quite possible, i must say so. they're much nicer than the ones on sale now.

and oh, 2 days ago, wan parked beside this gorgeous black Porshe Cayenne S at woodlands and the driver's an auntie! the horror. ok maybe she's a tai-tai. looks like so. anyway, doesnt matter. her car's a real black beauty. sigh.

ok, hari raya's coming soon. so fast. plus it falls on children's day so i've to spend for both raya things and children's day gifts. lucky i've already bought the gifts and thanks to dearest mummy's help, we've finished stuffing all the candies and other misc stuff into the goodie bags today before proceeding to clean the house. its fun at first but when you've got so many students...... it gets super tiring and mundane, lol.

ok i need a massage. and of all the stupid things, tthe bank doesnt have anymore $2, $5, $10 notes to change when i went to the bank with wan this morning. bah.

Selamat Hari Raya to all~

The Zon.

2008-09-21T22:51:00.009+08:00

just got back from sending my bro to Home Team Acad with wan.
yep, my bro's doing his NS there. quite surprising cuz all of us thought he would go army.

anyway, ever since wan passed his test 2 weeks ago, we've been driving around here and there :) which is just about fine, cuz i love random rides to nowhere. after fasting month, we've already planned basket picnics at peaceful escapades which are not congested with foreign workers or anybody else. cant wait to go a bit further like KL or sth. which will only happen next year of cuz, insya Allah *winks*

right about now, i'm looking at the dresses on sale on VS' site and they are really really gorgeous. so tempting to buy one. hmmmm. especially this particular one. hmmmmmmm. anyone going to the US out there? can kirim VS' stuff tak? pretty please please? i think its far cheaper to get it from the store itself rather than order it online, whats with the shipping and delivery costs.

and i'm quite pleased with this new layout especially with the main picture as it consists of all my favourite girly things- ok maybe not the snorkelling pic, thats not girly. i dont know why i even bother changing the layout since my blog's quite dead and most of my friends' links are dead ends. haha. was just out of boredom and ok, to destress myself on a sunday. and to convince myself not to think of tomorrow-monday! bah. i hate working on mondays.

zZzZzZzZz.....

Impiana Cabana ...

2008-09-06T23:40:00.004+08:00

classic black and white video just to make your day brighter, no matter the daily challenges we face this fasting month.
love this song.
*all smiles*

2008-08-23T22:22:00.006+08:00

ok ok, let's update this blog :)
the reason why i'm rarely online and this blog's a ghost town is because of my pathetic worklife that doesnt require me to use a computer.
okay other than the kids' E-learning which has a protected time limit and super kepo imps looking over the laptop so i cant really surf.
and its exams periods so phew!lucky all the imps have successfully sat for their tests and the absentees have rescheduled theirs.
i tell you, its a busy busy world especially with the HFMD cases going on. so we're taking all precaution needed including spraying of Mr Mckenzie in the classrooms after the final lessons LOL.
other than that, teacher's day coming along with bulan ramadhan and i've got already got my first teacher's day card with so many pokemon stickers on it that got all the boys envying me. haha! sometimes, these children can really get to your nerves and make your voice so hoarse and give you daily splitting headaches but some other times... they can just make your day and make you the happiest person on earth :)

ok, other than work, i'm addicted to A Little Black Dress books because wan bought me one for our 3rd year anniversary and its really a clever idea to get so many different authors writing feel-good novels under a catchy-name publisher.
so ladies, do get one for yourself now! nothing's better than curling up with a good book at a cosy spot :)

Btw,wan and i have paid the 5% for our jade spring flat and that means our cpfs are completely kapooosh. tu baru 5% downpayment. when we get our key in 2-3 years time,insya Allah, we've to pay so much more. it still feels weird to go to Hdb Hub and sign the official papers and just the whole transaction feels strange and funny in a way that i am really gettin my own house! no more berangan berangan. ini realiti. not some barbie dollhouse! someone please slap me. but seriously, with that kind of payment for a hdb flat, you can actually get a semi-detached in jb. or so much bigger. the cost of living here is really a living hell yeah?

i've also been spending a lot of time with dearest mummy or a.k.a. Nubian Queen, going shopping at jb almost every weekend. last week we went ostrich farm and desaru fruit farm under e-ventions just to try try if the company's ok heh. but i think my parents have really caught the holiday fever, they just went Tioman with us last month and then Phuket on their own and next week they're going to snorkel at Pulau Besar for their umpteenth honeymoon. sheeeesh. i guess they deserve the break after so many years of working their hearts out just to raise us three monkeys. my parents seriously cant wait for me to get married so that they can finally go haji, insya Allah. if possible, they want me to get out of the house by next year january! the horror! too frigging early i told them and i've not enough money saved yet for the wedding,etc.

ok suddenly i think ive blogged too much and my fingers are failing me. i've so much to say about the Rally and the Beijing olympics but naaah, i wont even start or i wont stop!
goodnight people.

of late night chappatis and a bomber jacket boy...

2008-06-29T21:04:00.006+08:00

woo. suddenly feels like blogging :)

two weeks ago, me & wan decided to revisit old childhood memories and went Science Centre.
their dinosaurs rocked. not to mention their huge garden escapade. lovely place to just eat lunch with your loved ones. there's even a wonderful treehouse there and we saw this strange mother bird with her cute little chicks too. first-hand nature beats watching national geographic anytime!

the same two weeks ago, me & mariah went for this extreme makeover that drove us crazy. seriously crazy. i thought my butt would be permanently fossiled into that chair i sat in for the make-up. it took almost 2 hours! gosh. i think both of us will never go for another makeover again after that experience haha. we've not received the pictures (insya Allah next tuesday) and im dreading to see such a different looking me. but mariah looked super pretty in her pink dress. finally can see her in blusher and lipstick ;)

this coming friday i'm going for a long getaway to Tioman yeay. thanks to my beloved Zulus of course. snorkelling here i come! *rubs hands in glee* cant wait! too bad my kittykat cant follow. hmmmm... next year, next year :)

Smokes and mirrors.

Fairytales are more than true.
Not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us
that dragons can be
defeated. (from Neil Gaiman)

Its amusing.
It's amusing to read your past blog entries, dating way back to 2005 where you almost died of a heartbreak and insecurity bothered you the most and you stayed up all evening shaking your leg to songs played at indochine with your gorgeous girlfriend.

it's more amusing to read the first few testimonials you received on friendster. how people described you then. and then zoom the camera to NOW, and you laugh because they dont give real testimonials (tes·ti·mo·ni·al - (noun) a written declaration certifying to a person's character, conduct, or qualifications, or to the value, excellence, etc.,) of the user anymore. they're more like shoutouts. or random thoughts of almost everything. oh wait. they're called "comments" now. sheesh.

let's see. this was my very first testimonial dated 10/25/2003:

"hey hey hey putri mira...kkiikik...sweet n lovely gerl...very helpful n generous...buay tahan...very da gd gerl...ikkik..a nice fren.. ;]."

go ahead, go read your first testimonial and smile to yourself, reminiscing about those golden days when friendster was still not known by many and facebook and multiply and whathaveyous did not exist. and irc was the "in" thing, yo.

*sighs*

back to work tomorrow.
weekends are too short.
bleah.

Jade Springs.

2008-03-30T22:05:00.003+08:00

Somehow i didnt imagine it would be like this.
somehow it feels like everything's happening so fast, i can hardly stop to catch my breath.
i mean, i never even imagined i would be looking at my very own showflat so soon! *yelps*

it was very last minute. he applied on the final week of application and miraculously, we got queue number 6. a God-send miracle said everyone who knew the good news.
then we went to see the showflats at HDB Hub and everybody there were lookin at us like, uhhhhh, are these two a bit of underaged for this? it felt both weird and wonderful, to just walk around the showflats and imagine, yeah, this is how my house gonna be in 3 years time. to talk about the tiles and the 3/4 length windows and how big the living room space is and gosh, everything about houses and what-have-you! i know. its like buying a dollhouse for my Barbies and Kens. except this is real.

suddenly im all grown up.
its hard to accept it. it feels downright amusing that i'm no more 16. i wonder how my parents are feeling about it. their oldest daughter,who used to be a intolerable dennis the menace when she was 4 years old, is all grown up. *sniffs* we're going for the flat selection next week. believe me, selecting a flat is serious tough business.

on another hand, i'm gonna live in yishun!!
Hello Kinah!

Victoria's Secret Angels.
Dont you wish you're one of them too?

Kiss, kiss.

What has nini been up to?

Hmmm... other than busy with work (never-ending marking!), been scouting with wan for wedding caterers, mak andams, gubahans, and lately a most favourite of mine is getting nice, nice things for the hantaran :)

sadly yesterday, most of the shops were closed half-day and it was like walking through a ghost town (haunted by many ghouly foreign workers who were also enjoying their CNY holiday and the chilling background music of cny songs).

more miserable news is our favourite eating getaway, Padi & Nooch, is officially closed down!! bummer. no more nice jap food. ramen ten is the closest alternative but its still no match for Padi & Nooch. sighs. tucked in the serene and quiet center of Far East Square, it was lovely to just enjoy a quiet and delicious jap meal. oh well.

on a lighter note, wan and i had fun trying on revlon's new glittery delights :) i looooove their sheer shadow. *hint hint* and their print ads are gorgeous too.

hmmm... there's like, practically nowhere to go this cny hols. boring. i wish i had booked a coach to KL or something. just 2 nights will do. nvm. i've lots of events to look forward to this 2008 :) jurong bird park, downtown east, and maybe even vietnam. and i heard from kinah there's this wedding of the year to look forward to *winks*

Enjoy your hols, people!

japonais.

hiyaaaaa!
yes, i'm engaged.
yes, the ceremony was planned to be small & simple.
yes, it was unexpected.
yes, i'm kinda surprised myself.
yes, it was so last minute.
yes, i'm most probably getting married in 1 and a half years time.
yes, i'm already thinking of what wedding dress to wear,no matter how bimbotic that is.
and yes, i'm horrified + petrified + over the moon + worried + stressed + exhilarated + gleeful + all the other remaining 100plus feelings.
phew!

AngelFit.

this blog of mine is sadly dead.
blame me for being frigging busy with work, work, work.
plus taking care of my own tank with psychotic but lovable dwarf gauramis.
just here to wish all "Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir Batin" before the joyous month ends.
and of course, to finish this short update off with raya pictures :)
enjoy, people *muahs*

(p.s. : Stardust is a must-watch. i've read the book (b'day gift from yours truly) and what can i say? neil gaiman is a fantastic writer. i'm addicted to him!)

2007-09-01T23:41:00.000+08:00

Beautiful girls

One of the many wonderful reasons a teacher stays patient, other than getting good results and the pleasure of making kids laugh, is TEACHER'S DAY :)
i am truly blessed.

HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY :)

2007-07-28T20:39:00.000+08:00

you will find me, time after time.

megan fox from Transformers is simply hot.
one of the most gorgeous tanned girls i've seen so far. i still remember how i used to buy a foundation darker than my skin to look tanned. haha. poly days :P but those days were really fun and crazy. miss them.

those dark foundation days with my babe, lizzy. taken 3/4 years ago?

i wanna go back and study again laa. i think i can still pass for a 16 year old. *snorts* and my sis just received a $1.2K bursary for top 10% in her school. argghh.

2007-07-15T21:24:00.000+08:00

i can fly but i want his wings.

where are you?
i cant reach you.
where have you been?
i've been trying and trying to reach you but i cant.
i want to find you but i dont know where to start.
my head's going to explode if you dont mysteriously appear just like how you've mysteriously disappeared. i'm trying to pacify myself by watching Lamb's videos on youtube but they're not helping.
please come home. :(

p.s.: Zoo with the family today was lovely. the gorgeous white tigers took my breath away. then again, i had you on my mind all throughout and i'm seriously worried. where are you?

2007-07-09T21:22:00.000+08:00

lovestoned.

(voleta updates)

Went NDP preview last saturday with babe mariah. Thanks to herman for the free tix! mariah looked great with her white kitty heels ;) the one that made the "china mari" sitting beside us at the stands so envious. haha. i think all my friends are looking more and more mature. while i,on the other hand, still look the same. phisssh. i need a makeover :(

mariah & me at NDP preview marina bay 07, pic taken by fazree.

nonetheless, the dynamic defence display was awesome. i love all the counterstrikey action. i really felt like i was at war. scary yet.. the feeling was breath-taking. plus the fireworks and the parade. lovely.

the floating stage.

majulah singapura! sentimental ah this part,felt so patriotic out of the sudden =p

this weekend,i've a wedding plus the zoo with my family :D oh yeah, wan's new siamese kitten. not fair. ive been wanting a cat for the longest time ever and i just get a greedy gaurami fish. while he, got this cute lil elven-eared kitten just right at his doorstep. hmprh.

meet wan's handsome kittykat

by the way, ive a new laptop(yeay finally!) that has the same colour scheme as my silver bag(yippee silver rules!so friggin girlish eh LOL) but sadly, i dont really use it. sheesh.i mean, i dont need it for work. and i rarely go online too. so why in the first place did i get it? beats the hell outta me.

meet Mr Sesshomaru :)

ok im exhausted. my head hurts. i cant imagine how people can have 5 kids or more. having to bear almost 10 hours with the imps each day drain the life out of me! goodnight loves~

2007-06-17T20:10:00.000+08:00

e-baying.

i am super stuck on ebay :)
no thanks to dad.
anybody selling their items online like accessories,clothes,bags,books(espeically enid blyton,roald dahl,doraemon,horrible science series) & other ninilicious stuff, like miss plaid here http://www.wadrobeflea.blogspot.com/, do post your links on my tagboard and i'll visit them when i go online during the weekends, insya allah ;)

super,super busy. will update more on the little rascals i'm working with :) finally, to end with this teacher's anecdote, "Puberty is the period when students stop asking questions and begin to question answers."

2007-05-23T21:23:00.000+08:00

hi all,

ive not been online for a long time so when i finally do, there is so much stuff to do! i'm tryin to multi-task but who am i kidding? i'm no octopus dei. frigging busy nowadays. hardly any time for myself. especially with the school holidays approaching. ok these are what i'm trying to do NOW online.

1. Print lots of colouring pages for the annoying but lovable kids at school. they want more pokemon, more winx club & brats & what have you. anything to bribe them and make them quiet while i mark papers!
2. Check friendster,update on what friends are up to.
3. Check mailbox, delete junk, reply outstanding mails.
4. Upload pictures to the comp which are already 1 month old on my phone.
5. Edit pictures.
6. Reply to wan's blinking msgs on msn. oops.
7. Listen to my mum talk about something.
8. Classify misc stuff in the comp.

I cant multi-task for shit. My weekends are fully booked. Last weekend, went to downtown east for 2 days with family and cousins, raided Wild Wild Wet,counting down to the next WWW raid! :D last last weekend, performance at the Art House :) my voice is still hoarse over the screams during the rides. nonetheless, it was worth it, screaming is definitely stress-relief :)
sorry babes for not meeting up with all of you!! :( if only work finishes earlier...
bleah.

2007-05-01T18:16:00.000+08:00

before and after.

my primary 2s and primary 4s are monstrous.

2007-04-12T16:41:00.000+08:00

no wonder the baju raya i tempah seems a bit tight :(

2007-03-29T16:18:00.000+08:00

caramel lipgloss.

i'm frigging bored at work.
doing basically nothing. and the office is super silent. except for the now & then random whisperings and gossips of the working ladies. bleah.
so i'm reading the history of PA (People's Association) on their intranet,which turns out to be rather interesting.
check it out: 9 Jan 1960, The first Community Centre, Minto Community Centre, opened by the then PM Mr Lee Kuan Yew was built at a cost of $15,000 (The First Twenty Years, p41).

by the way, Russian model Natalia Vodianova, is the eye candy for the day. ok fine, i do like looking at pretty women not because im a lesbian, its more of how amazing they can achieve that level of Aphrodite-gorgeousity with the right make-up and apparel. daaaa dee duum.

2007-03-24T22:41:00.000+08:00

a movie i'm very much looking forward to this year :)

oh yes, i'm based at taman jurong cc now so if you're nearby, do drop by and say hello. because its frigging ulu. well,at least the place's very nice :)
byeeee.
*waves to maria*

2007-03-17T14:17:00.000+08:00

3am cemetery drive.

theres a saying.
the ones who love us least are the ones we'll die to please.
true or false?

anyway, some leto & depp yum-yums to cheer my depressing day up.

i wish i'll have no trouble sleeping tonight.
i dont believe in sleeping pills.
maybe now i should?
neh.
i bet all the boys & men had no trouble sleeping after watching the Body Doubles-International Twin Search on channel 5 last night. sheesh.
so, where's the male version for us ladies eh?
hmmmpprh.

i need ben&jerry's cherry garcia :(

2007-03-11T21:16:00.000+08:00

a fishy tale.

so that IT fair at suntec was a massive turn-out. phew.
saw a couple of over-enthu men squatting down by the aisles, resting from attacks of the dizzy spell & the mad desire of buying everything on sale. its no wonder because the crowd was craazy. its like the whole of singapore decided to come down yesterday. ive got my toes stepped on by some china women wearing dangerous heels,i was pushed left,right,front,back,even by a rude apek pushing his tall cart of boxes. not to mention being rubbed and flatten with sweaty smelly people. the disadvantage of being small. yelahh aku tahu aku ni kecik dan kentot. pah.

but nevermind, the whole horrible ordeal was rewarded by fish&co's afterthat by the guy who felt so guilty dragging my ass there hahaa *lots of appreciative smiles* i love fish and chips. yum yum.

when to try mad jack eh? our bus passed that place yesterday. ms rose, have you tried mad jack belum? anyone? i wanna know what they're selling and the rating for the food :)

i think im beginning to grow fat.
damn.

2007-03-03T22:02:00.000+08:00

random yum yums.

i ask you, is there any dunkin doughnuts outlets in singapore? how come i never see one before? so troublesome la must go jb just to get the delicious yumyums.

by the way, the career fair at suntec city is actually "further-your-studies" fair so dont bother going if you're looking for a job. super irritating. universities here and there. and the careers booths are only a portion of the hall. always the same every year. urghh. the airforce fair im going tomorrow better be good. or else.i might just need another box of those sinful yum yums :) ade je alasan nak makan donut. cheh.

wan is at the fallout boys concert now and i hope he's having a blast (while im rotting in front of my comp) :D

there are some irritating teenyboppers downstairs my block making a truth-or-dare racket. noisy pelat buggers. feel like throwing water bombs. then again if i do so, i'll be just like one of them so why bother. suddenly i feel so damn old.

i think im suffering from the famous shopping-deprival symptoms. bah.

2007-02-26T17:26:00.000+08:00

my life sucks.
be in my shoes for a moment.
its not all about you.

2007-02-20T21:28:00.000+08:00

all day long i waited and waited and waited and waited.
like a prisoner, awaiting for her death at the gallows.
all day long i waited, and when the time came, somehow, the waiting seemed futile. somehow the waiting seemed more nicer. less painful. than the verdict itself.
its bad enough my hp's gone.
i hate my life.

2007-02-19T18:05:00.000+08:00

where has that good girl girl gone to?

announcement.
my HP is officially gone so if you want to contact me, please email me @ elven_roach@hotmail.com & insya allah, ill get back to you the next time i can get my crammy hands on the comp again. and to shakinah depp, thanks babe. for you know what. owe you one big one.
my life's so down there, i dont even feel like talking about it.
my babe elizabeth had her 23rd birthday last saturday so hey gorgeous, hope you get my card, miss you lots & oh yeah, gong xi fa cai to you too!

pish posh, 3 years ago.

another babe qamariah's celebrating hers tomorrow, happy 23rd birthday to you too sweetie! hope to meet up with you soon :)

me & miss mariah.

i guess i failed to realized that the hero i fell for is still there standing, waiting for me. the one who walked a few kilometres just to get to me. the one who hailed a dozen of dumb cabs and not giving up to get to me. the one who makes me feel fuzzy woozy just by a mere touch on my hand. who doesnt walk away when i get really mad. who pampers me with glorious food and beautiful poems. i love you.

i admit i deserve this harsh punishment. i still love the Zulus(parents) for this. i still very much love the Nubian queen (mum). if im still a teenager, ill rebel and scream but i guess im not anymore. who am i kidding? im going to be 22 this year. dang.

2007-02-02T17:22:00.000+08:00

curiouser & curiouser.

(warning: post contains an abundance of pictures.)

The beloved Zulus will be back from their KL vacation tonight. so the house will have to be prim & proper & i'm making sure the house & us have been very good while they're away :) goki's wedding was very nice & hilarious. nice because the atmosphere was lively, food was great. hilarious because of the brady bunch i went with(especially with Kinah "Asian's Paris Hilton"). hilarious also because wan has finally met the brady bunch & to see wan & viknash "getting along" is downright amusing. sheesh. i do not wish to say what viknash's antics on me were that day. the witnesses who were there can tell you that. haha. so embarassing la. anyway, pictures are as below, thanks to haniza's cam :)

the ladies reunited.

diamonds.

viknash's full plate.

with the newlyweds.

@ Little India's mrt with the lovely brady bunch.

my bus ride home with the significant other.

my family didnt go to e zoo because it ~~goddamn~~ rained. i'm sorry, ive to say that was some "hujan rahmat" cuz after some votes, we decided to head to tampines ikea & courts. bought a couple of stuff. tampines ikea is great. their tempat solat is very condusive :) ate so much food, i didnt know what else was there to stuff into my stomach. the Zulus bought my sis her new HP, lucky ass, belum dapat o level results da dapat reward. they also bought a new digicam(finally, can throw away my sis'!heh).

the sister & mother i cant live without.

reflections.

yesterday wan, my sis & i went to The Cathay to watch Babel, thanks to his generous treat. Babel was very interesting & disturbingly moving. The flow is something like Crash(another disturbingly good award-winning movie from last yr), but this one touches more on the bond between children & adults. you got to see it to experience it. i cant explain the feeling here. before that, wan & i was in Little India to catch the very colourful & lively Thaipusam festival. After Babel, we headed to esplanade to support wan's cousin performing there. very nice performance. then i got to meet wan's own brady bunch. lol.

the vivid thaipusam's throng.

@ the cathay.

my sis' emo zone.

CNY model. lol.

the chill-out perfomance at esplanade's concourse.

i miss my Zulus. cant wait for them to get home. wonder if they got me anything? keropok2 pun jadilah :)
Hmm.. Have a good weekend all :)

2007-01-26T12:59:00.000+08:00

go emerald.

i'm gonna try go green this 2007.
and i'm gonna nail that job next wed.
because its one of my dream jobs(you know one the careers you berangan nak jadi when you was growing up,sheesh) and i'm all out to get it.
so pray hard for me.
on the other hand, i'm going to the zoo this sunday :)
back to the lovely butterflies at the fragile forest. yippee! its amusing that no matter how many times you've visited the zoo before, the next visit is always something exciting to look forward to :D the word "zoo" itself does wonders.
have a good weekend, all.

(p.s.: alhamdulillah, its good to be back in full form.)

2007-01-19T13:43:00.000+08:00

system recovery.

today is probably the day i gain freedom from the attack of the most horrible high fever ever.
it has almost been a week. it started with normal fever on last saturday's night. then came sunday. that was when the seizures began. uncontrollable shaking from chills that went on and on. plus the continuous vomitting. sleepless nights. constipation. my family got really scared. even i myself was petrified.
my parents even argued whether to send me to the hospital. my mother said no, its not the normal kind of fever you think it is, my dad said, yes, we should send her immediately n let the doctors handle.
funny thing was, all throughout the whole ordeal, i was super conscious. aware of my surroundings, aware of what every single one was saying. everything was magnified. it was scary. of course i told them NO, no hospital. its not that i have anything against the singapore's hospitals. its just the thought of a) needles b) environment. i figured i could recover better by staying at home most definitely.

so i stayed. my mother quitted her job to look after me. that was the most touching thing ever. there were times i felt like i was troubling everyone and i felt like i should just die. but my family & wan(*muaks*) supported me all the way. the one thing that i will never forget, my mother told me, its retribution, for whatever sins i've done(which i'd gulped at)and for forgetting God when i'm pink healthy. i know i am not the nicest good daughter in the world & i did lots of nasty sins in the past,if i list them all here, i dont think i can ever finish, and i thank God for giving me this chance to repent than not at all. sadly, it always take a tragedy for one to change & go back to the right path, and i confess i'm one of them. so i'm gonna try now.

doesnt mean im gonna be an extremist or anything la. haiyo. basic stuff like keeping the 5 waktu solat( yes, guilty as charged, im also kadaking even when al-falah is right in front of my nose)& not lying to my parents n etc etc.
okay i would want to finish this post off very nicely with like a moral or something but my head's suddenly gone fizzy and i need my medicine. insya allah, by next week, i'll back in full force. and oh yes, hani's birthday tomorrow. and goki's wedding next week. plus rescheduled interviews for the ones i missed the whole of this week.
everybody, have a great weekend. and dont forget Him ok? :)

2007-01-09T20:29:00.000+08:00

kalimah cinta bersakti?

i don't really listen to malay songs(especially not achik's songs,bish) but misha omar's nafas cahaya has been playing non-stop in my head.
my sister & i have also been stuck on big fish games(thanks to the hp games on wan's new laptop). notably cake mania,diner dash & carrie the caregiver.
anybody has crack on carrie the caregiver, please please email me as I've been searching & searching for it but to no avail :(

us at City Square's lavatory.

note that my once sporty+punkrock sister is gradually crossing over to the ladylike world thanks to her big sister. she's still deciding what course to take & have been cajoled from both me & my dad to join the police force after her diploma. no, i dont think she has a choice. its either nursing or police. hua hua.
ok back to diner dash. ta all.

2006-12-30T22:46:00.000+08:00

starlight.

suddenly my love for the good old penpals' world resurrected itself and i find myself getting very warm Hellos from south korea, holland, italy, germany & even zimbabwe. pretty amazing. any girls wants to get know a very hot italian gentleman named Giorgio? heh. i think he's visiting singapore soon :) and i don't think mr dimples would appreciate me escorting mr giorgio for a local tour. lol.
i'm gonna check my mailbox now and then from now on. nyeheh. i love getting postcards & letters. k fine, i'm a very sentimental girl. er, woman.
where are you people counting down tomorrow? i'm definitely avoiding town :)
to everyone, have a good new year & a very long weekends!
to all muslims, selamat hari raya haji :)

masih dapat duit tak eh besok.. hmmmm....kalau dapat best jugak, bleh gi shopping. mng sale sayang tak pergi seh :( sighs being broke sucks la. takpe nenek atuk sure give duit punye heheh.

2006-12-11T23:34:00.000+08:00

back to square one.
i think i'm living in a lie.
either i'm procastinating or i'm just plain lost.
read back roald dahl's Witches. that book still rocks me socks off.
anyway, im not a big fan of bollywood but i think this picture of aish is whoopeedoodah lovely.

2006-12-10T20:37:00.000+08:00

today's wedding at Bedok was lovely. purple and colourful flowers. the ending was disastrous. sometimes you wonder why the most wonderful start to a day can end in a catastrophe. sighs. my heart's in this indescribable pain. still, i have very much faith and i believe.
finally met up with ms rose after such a long time ;) a big congratulations to her engagement!
below are some recent and other pictures i was supposed to publish a long time ago :p enjoy!

(p.s. : i miss you.)

2006-11-19T14:43:00.000+08:00

alright, alright.
i am not dead.
just that i could not find the time to update my poor blogsite because of my stupid current job.
MY JOB STINKS.
it stinks so much, its making me stinky too. ha-ha. bluerghh.
i cannot wait for my 3 months contract to be over.
come december 31st, i'll sing my lungs out that the nightmare is finally kapoosh.
for the meantime, ive got to bear with the measly horrible disgusting job.i think im job-hopping too much but i just cannot find that suitable career that i could commit my heart & soul to.hey, i'm even considering to work back in kumon as a full-timer. at least i still had a life back then :(

on a brighter note, i did finally managed to squeeze some time into my lousy working schedule & met up with the ladies i missed so much.
pictures will come soon. (cross your fingers hard for that one)
i just need more squeezing time for lizzy & ros & a list of others! so see you soon hopefully ladies :)

till then, if you see me outside laughing & skipping carefreely on a weekday, that means im on "MC"! so approach with caution. ha ha.

2006-11-12T22:03:00.000+08:00

just take me as dead.
its been fun.
ta~

2006-10-26T20:59:00.000+08:00

linger.

i've been extremely busy so sorry for this late greeting, Happy Aidilfitri & maaf zahir batin to all from your dearest nini :) my sis & i are pink this raya. my mum backstabbed us by changing to grey last minute after much cajoling from diabolical dad. pish.
a few of first day raya pictures as following:

will try get more pics from our dearest cuzzin Mim. so sorry we couldnt acc you to that concert that night :( would really to but we still had our mum's sides to go to.
anyway, i bet everybody else has either sore throat or stomache. ha ha. gara2 excessive intake of air oren, rendang + kuah satay + sambal goreng + ayam masak merah. oh well. like they said, it comes once in a year so eat your hearts out yeah & drink lots of plain water peeps. takpe if pergi orang bawa air mineral atau minta air masak putih, tak kan dimarah punye la.
btw, do gimme a ring/sms if you wanna come visit so can masak sth okays? and also hide my fish bowl away. don't want my Armand, Lestat & the followers to be freaked out by the commotion, they're very shy fishys :) heh.

tml, i will get screwed upside down at work. so, till the next time again, ta all.

2006-10-08T20:43:00.000+08:00

Dear bloggers,
here's an update of what nini has been up to. working in a fast-paced environment has been seriously crazy. one week of work and i've been staying late everyday. the load of work is that much. i wonder how those old-timers can survive the hectic buzzing working hours. phew. my superior even told me that in her 3 years working there, she rarely has dinners with her family. that is so so sad. i miss breaking fast with my family. shit, im a family person. and not being able to spend much time with them does not make my life complete. nor does it makes me totally happy. thankfully, wan's working near my area (thomson road) so we could at least go to work together. else, i dont even have time for him.

i never knew being 21(in a few hours time,sheesh) is gonna be like this. when i was 9, i dreamt being this passionate educator like my primary school teacher,my gary. when he broke his leg, he still came down to teach us in his crutches. he was one of the coolest teacher i've ever had. gosh i miss teaching :( i miss the imps and the hooligans of chua chu kang primary 5s. well, i guess it cant be helped. ill try continue to adapt to this new career, give that 101% shot, and start planning the next 5 years down the road. whatever it is, i dont intend to stay in this field for the rest of my life. no life sey. bleaaah.

anyway, can you believe it, two more weeks to hari raya! gosh. so fast right. have all of you got your baju rayas? what colour are yours this year? mine's ermmm. peach/pink? couldnt find the perfect lavender. and mum says no black. bah. thank god ive already bought my baju raya before the fasting month started. cant imagine trying to fight the crowd now. oklah, my head's spinning ard now.
Selamat Hari Raya in advanced all! and happy 21st birthday to me :) *blows kisses*

2006-10-01T15:49:00.000+08:00

fishy love.

i did say i wanna get some fishy companions.
Everybody, say hello to my beloved two guppies, Lestat and Armand, and three neon tetras(2 passed away,sobs), the Followers :)
you might wonder what spark ms nini to get some fish when she's obsessed with kitties.

well, according to the Zulus' rules, i CANT keep cats until i've my own apartment(which will only happen in 5-10 years from now). and my mother, the Nubian queen(hey sir fad, u came up with this name for her,how are you man?) doesnt have a liking for hamsters. and birds are meant to be free, not caged. thus, simple solution: FISHY.

i did some research from online and library books and heyho,whaddy know, fish are really interesting, wonderful, complicated beings :) i've been reading a lot about them and i'm amazed by all the information i'm getting. when i've more cash, i wanna start my own community aquarium. or maybe even keep marine fishes. it'll be a huge responsibility. and i dont mind :)

just tell me, anyone, how to get to the pasir ris fish farm ah? i so wanna go there. i need the bus number, that is all, thanks!
have a great fishy weekend :D

2006-09-12T21:18:00.000+08:00

tree tops.

it had been quite a rough patch. red puffy eyes & what have you.
at the end of the day, you know who are the people you truly care for, & vice versa. thanks for all of your loves, especially qmomo for her sweet cadbury note & wan for his everlasting patience :)
well, guess what? i've got me a new job. heh. alhamdulillah. im still in a daze that ive got it sooo, more info abt it next time :p
here are pictures from the whole week i 'disappeared'.
great sisters' raid 2 monster's house, nice family day at sentosa(lots of eye candies and cute kids too), pink interviews and random lups-lups. hmmm.. maybe i should open a photoblog instead. sheesh.
(p.s.: i miss you, sue *hugs*)
(p.p.s: kinah, hani, lizzy, ros & mariah, i miss all of you babes too!)

2006-09-05T20:57:00.000+08:00

my lesson learnt.
sometimes ugly truths are better left untold, no matter how much you thought the other person would accept it.
because in the end, its better you hurt yourself than you hurt others.
i'll be back when the sun can properly shine again.
till then, goodbye all.

big fishy shop in yishun?

i've decided to get a fish for a pet.
maybe a tiger barb cuz they're playful tail-nippers.
but buying just one will make its life dull.
so wan suggested,why not buy those really smally tiny fishes,put them along with barbie the tiger barb and tada! fun for barbie! sheesh. no i wont do that. no animal cruelty. and no barbie names too. haha.
or maybe those really lovely glow-in-the-dark (do they?) tetras. or angelfish.
or even a koi. no, no goldfish. too sentimental for my dad who still has not gotten over the death of his 3 beloved goldfishes 5 years ago?
anyway. will update more on this fishy matter.
today's esplanade school trip with the yishun sec kids was ok except for the late school bus driver. as always. since my time school bus drivers are well-known for being late too when we're pong tired from a hot zoo excursion.
ok ta!

2006-09-03T20:35:00.000+08:00

bleak.

the day couldnt get anymore worse.
not only i had one of the worst rows at an ungodly hour that almost involved a big, stupid decision. mother had to throw one of her biggest bitchiest tantrums at me the whole day. and scolded my father for not being a bitch too. i had to cancel last min going to a friend's wedding with an old friend because of this. i HATE cancelling outings last min when my family comes in the way but it had to be done. my nose cant stop flowing and my throat sucked i could barely talk. i'm trying to cheer myself up but when you've got not money, it just sucks. and a distressed 999 phone call from a dear friend didnt help. i tried to stay calm down throughout the whole ordeal but after putting down i just had to scream. i dont mind listening to a friend when you're in trouble because thats what good friends do but please stop shouting at me like as though its my fault. dont get me wrong, i'm happy to help you in any way i can but if theres seriously nothing else i can do, then i'm sorry.
if im superwoman i'll help anybody in any way i can but im not.
im whining but who cares this is my blog afterall. sighs.
i dont keep grudges. i dont want to make enemies. i dont ask to be liked.
i just want everyone to know ive got feelings and my own problems too. and unfortunately im not superwoman.
im just some pathetic unsuccessful low-on-cash girl.
thank you and have a nice day.

(p.s: ill probably scrape this post off when im feeling better.)

2006-08-31T20:23:00.000+08:00

sexyback.

NOTE: THIS IS A MUSHY CUDDLY OOMPY RANT SO PLEASE AVOID IF ALLERGIC.

1 year and months ago, i almost thought i would turn my back on true love after the mother of all break-ups. i wanted to believe only in fun dating,no strings attached.
it was a bloody amusing but chaotic phase.
then i met new people and reconciled with some old ones. and some of these people are still staying in touch. and among these people, was wan.
its funny, i knew him a looong time ago.
back when i was still IRC-ing away. how long was that. 6 , 7 years ago? we were mere acquaintances. we led different lives, came from different backgrounds, had different groups of friends, basically we were just DIFFERENT.
and still very much are :)
albeit that, we managed to put all these differences aside 1 year and months ago and we beautifully bonded.
he learnt of my world and i learnt of his.
of lipglosses that shine, fat cats, children, hip hop and gothic novels.
of the ataris, homemade theories, medical stuff and organizing gigs.
of course, it wasnt THAT easy. it took a whole lot of patience, tears and compromises.
still, its amazing how our outings differ all the time.
suddenly there's so many things to do, places to discover, exotic dishes to try, nature paths to venture, new plans to undertake and the list goes on.
and i've never been this genuinely happy with someone :)
and i realize i've never declare this on my blog before,

"i love you, muhammad nurikhwan bin sahri."

(p.s: new pics from sentosa and JB on the next rant *grins*)
(p.p.s.: HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY TO ROMEO!)

eyecandy.

our most beautiful woman in the universe is 18 yr-old Miss Zuleyka Rivera Mendoza of puerto rico. why does she remind me of madame angelina jolie? hmm. the lips? the eyes? *shrugs*
anyway my personal favs are Miss Bolivia & Miss Japan.

especially japan. she looks like some hot asian barracuda(is that how you spell it?). like that DJ from Wade robson's dance show. for more eyecandies, please proceed to missuniverse.com. dont you just love looking at beautiful people? sighs.

*yawns* goodnight all.

mms from taiwan that made my sick day better.

i'm writing again
These letters to you aren't much i know,
But i'm not sleeping and, you're not here
The thought stops my heart.
Do you notice i'm gone?
Where do you run to so far away?
i want you to know that
i miss you, i miss you so..
(Finch -Letters to you.)

2006-07-23T21:39:00.000+08:00

okay, DONT even talk about england. ha ha. i had a great time watching that one. okay, so it dragged a bit but heck, beckham cried. rooney accidentally stepped on some portugalian's balls!(okay that wasnt the red card was for i think). the drama was satisfying alright *grins* i'm a sadistic, sucker-for-drama fan.
erm, moving on.

some poster i did to show the kids how to do blending.
heck, even i myself, shame on me, just learnt the beautiful existence of LAYER MASK.

i feel like shit.
this is sad. i've not log in blogger for so long i actually forgot my username and password. this is really sad.

holiday's over for me. it went absolutely fine.
now my pms getting the worst of me. its tough choosing family over friends. i hate being placed in that position. its effing sucky. you feel damn guilty over which one to choose. i hate hurting both parties. but i was born with "family above all" kinda thing. so yeah. of cuz i'm no good daddy's girl. ive lied, ive cheated, ive ran away, ive sinned. ive done all except shoplifting, stealing, raping, flashing,etc. i am just lucky i have super understanding friends around me. parents and siblings who never once gave up on me. no matter the fuck-ups i made. and one stubborn fella who'll find me even if im buried zillion acres under an earthquake. sighs.

all i need right now is a box of doughnuts,a cruise ship and a good Janet Evanovich book.
Have a good weekend all.

nectarineD.

spot that darlie man, baby. hahaha. i wanted to be more evil and put up this another picture or draw some italian moustache. t'was very tempting but i swear this is psychic, he called while i was in the middle of my devious act, like he knows what i was gonna do. hahaha. that got me laughing my ass off. thats him during his ~~BMT~~ OCS (eleh kena check out rank konon :p)days, ages ago. ORD soon wor. *all smiles*

last night, my sis and i attempted a DIY colouring of our hair. mine turned out some non-obvious dark maroon colour which was not i wanted. hers was some bright orange-red thing. what we wanted was the "Nectarine" colour they promised. but sheesh, thats what we get for being al-cheapos. hahaha.

i've watched The Little Mermaid after d/l it overnight and it was worth every single comp's lag. right now Aladdin. next, beauty and the beast.

where all your dreams come true...

i am currently in a disney princess' mood.
thanks to my sister who bought that disney princess cologne first. i decided to snag one for myself. i've been in dreamland with Auroras, Jasmines & Ariels ever since.
admit it, who doesnt love these babes, no matter the sappy happy endings?

my personal favourites are Ariel and Jasmine. okay, especially Ariel. i literally grew up with her purple shelled bras and garang, wild red hair. and i still have her Little Mermaid series books my dearest dad bought for me ages ago. lets see, i had a pair of Cinderalla glass shoes too. haha.
i've been downloading the songs i could remember from the movies like Under the sea, Kiss the girl & A whole new world. okay, thats about ALL i could recall. anybody has anymore suggestions? please, please do tell.
and oh yes! i found this super adorable Little Cinderella with cute lil chubby legs. effing cute rite? nyeheh.

oh yes, sent my sis to the airport at 5amplus this morning. she jetted off for Thailand,some geography school excursion. lucky dope. bah. and guess what, the mercy relief team to Yogyakarta was there too. huge buzzbuzz. salute these people, man. God bless.

p.s: i am missing someone very much.

2006-05-28T21:10:00.000+08:00

a virtual meow.

i wasnt aware that there are other virtual pets sites like neopets until today.
seriously, i was introduced to the cutesy bitsy world of neopets in secondary school, continued playing even during my FYPJ(final year project in poly terms) times, and now ive forgotten my password and the email ive registered to so i cant log in.
then wham! today, i found out that there are actually other sites with the similiar style of neopets. its as though the graphic artists of neopets went freelancing!
there are herupets.com,giropets.com,kiropets.com,marapets.com, and the list goes on and on. phew.
but for now, ive just registered myself at adoptme.com and my siamese kitty looks really happy chasing a birdy down the park.
my parents both think i've buang tebiat. haha. well i told them if i cant have a real kitty, i might as well have a virtual one =p

btw, the JB's cinema wasnt bad at all. in fact, its like cathay's. was very impressed :) and got my dunkin doughnuts at last too. and kenny rogers' chicken was ohlala scrumptious. with that special someone, going to new places to find good food and entertainment is wonderful. *hums* daaadeedaadeedaa..

2006-05-07T19:34:00.000+08:00

mango milk tea.

i'm in my best spaghetti top and hipster jeans. the last 15 minutes i spent was doing online quizzes out of boredom. so far i've found out that i am a no drama mama, i am not completely ready to get married yet,i'm a sensitive kisser and my victoria secret's angel is adriana lama. whew. dont you just love these quizzes! sheesh. now my lenses are dry. and one of my msn contacts keep logging in every five seconds so the window pop-up the right side of this screen is really bugging me. his msn must have really screwed up. i am missing a whole lot of people :(

my sister is the most annoying, talkative monkey alive but i still love her. sighs. *wonders "biler dier nak call nak pergi Sheng Siong ni.." oh yes,me and wan are probably baking cookies for mothers' day :) my parents are going to KL next week without us. how nice :(

2006-05-05T13:38:00.000+08:00

dreamin' of doughnuts.

layout changed! finally :)
not my own though. lazy to make one. this flirtatious one at blogskins.com caught my eye so yeah. its very... Dior. sexy in a girlish way, confident, fun.
i think i hear my sister meowing from the kitchen.
believe me, my family can be as deranged as the Osbournes.
i have not bathe neither have i done the laundry. when my dad comes back from friday prayers, he'll explode. then there goes my triangle currypuff he has promised to buy for me.
so i better be a good daddy's girl. (well havent i lately?sheesh)
ceeyao.

p.s. gosh, you've no idea how much i miss you :(

2006-05-02T15:09:00.000+08:00

puppy love in chinatown.

i'm so excited.
Channel 5 is showing Queen of the Damned this wednesday!
wee wee weeeee. Lestat! Marius! how i miss my Anne Rice's books.
by the way, animal lovers, do watch Eight Below if you havent. i think it's still showing at Eng Wah cinemas. after watching it, i swear my love for Huskey dogs just grow fonder and stronger. i thank God mr dimples shares my soft spot for woofys and meowmeows. i cannot imagine goo-goo-ga-gaing over a cute woofy or a kitty and the man looks damn not interested la. or pretends to look at his handphone. pfishhh. turn-off.

one of the doggies from Eight Below. Maya, if im not wrong. look at her fur! *GERAM*

its has been raining tapirs and armadillos. so bring your brolly, people. and make sure your brolly is working too *winks at someone* heehee.

2006-04-30T16:07:00.000+08:00

not like them.

i hate it when people stereotype me.
just because i wear this, im like them. just because i do that, im like them. just because i dress like that, i shouldnt be doing this, that. and because they go to there, i can go there. like seriously. you see people and their clothes and you rightaway stereotype them. it's unfair. don't make me into someone i'm not. because i am downright happy the way i am. and doesnt mean i do things differently, i'm wrong. for example, you cant force me to go to gigs because i just dont like the scene. its not that i find the scene wrong or obscene or blablabla,it's cool, it's fun but i just dont fancy it. and there is nothing wrong with that. really. and if there is something i really like but you think otherwise, i would respect that and i would not cajole you to it. so do likewise and everyone will be positively hip hap happy. its that one liner of " GIVE AND TAKE". and it works miracles in relationships and friendships.
have a good long weekend, all.

2006-04-25T20:42:00.000+08:00

POSITIVITY.

KL was a mind-blowing experience.
i've never felt so much alive before. despite having like 2hours(or less) sleep from the hectic 3days trip. and not having time to even shop. but masyaAllah. so worth the panda eyes.
i met people from different walks of life.
i shook hands of successful people. the Up There people. so down-to-earth. not even a single touch of arrogance. all cheering and clapping with the rest of us.
i even went up stage with my dearest wan. that was a shocker. we were like, up stage?us?really?WOW. in front of an audience in a colossal auditiorium as big as suntec city's hall? yeah.
i heard talks and words so motivational and sincere, that even now they still ring in my ears.
i cheered on chairs and danced and clapped till my hands became red.
i choked on tears hearing people talking about their own life's struggles. normal folks like us. average families. but my God. look at how successful they are now. earning thousands and what have you.
it's really inspiring. i so want to bring friends along next time, want them to feel this unexplainable uplifting experience. i'm still feeling the zest and the raging optimism. makes me think a lot. how lucky i am to experience this at a young age. and how lucky i am to have a decent life and loving parents who still sponsor me. makes me have this surge of power and confidence to do something big. something i've always dreamt of. go Switzerland 2008? oh yeah. :)

p.s. thank you hun for bribing me into going to this trip. heheh. i've no regrets. going up stage with you hand in hand was wonderful. even the 5 hours bus ride was lovely. we'll work towards our goals together yeah? cant wait for the next expedition. love you.

2006-04-20T20:30:00.000+08:00

Cooler than the red dress.

i'm going to KL for the weekends. *throws flying kiss to all*
don't miss me. *rolls eyes* haha.
by the way, tomorrow, someone special is getting older ;)

2006-04-16T16:17:00.000+08:00

i remember you.

Battle of the Bands yesterday was grrrreat. Congrats to KDJ for notching the top 10 bands' place. so unexpected when the competition was really good. the champion band deserved it. their costume parade was hilarious and they played real good.
The "surprise-wan-operation"(S.W.O.) went smoothly too. Wan didnt even expect me to come. haha. because i convinced him it's not my scene and that i were to watch a movie with some friends that day. so imagine his shock when he came to gave the tix to my sis. he was like "dear you are so evil!*poke poke*" haha.
i thought it won't start too early so i planned to come in late la, drama mama style, so upon arrival, i was rather amazed when it was a full house. so many genre of people filled the Bukit Batok C.C.'s hall. bapak rockers(father rockers), makcik makcik(aunties aunties), kids running around. so fascinating. somehow watching that special person on stage performing felt so... i don't know, seeing the other side of him, was enthralling. i'm so proud of you, love.
okay, pictures.

2006-04-13T16:27:00.000+08:00

risky random rants.

me and wan have big plans coming 2011,insya allah.
i've been biting it in for so long and been excited myself, i just had to blog it here.
so now i can look forward to 2011 with the rest of you who read my blog.
*rubs hands in glee*
is Australia a nice place to live in? hmmmmm.
by the way, many have known my fetish over boyish Orlando Blooms. let's just say i've grown out of him. so for the moment(and the years coming), Karl Urban (as sexily sighted in Doom, Chronicles of Riddick) is in. so girls, next time you see me, do mention Karl Urban more. haha.

happy long weekends, all!
good luck to wan's KDJ band for their finals this saturday!

Tristan's ladies, tempation, tickles.

Tristan and Isolde with the two ladies rocks. Romeo and juliet seems lame after you watch this show. yeah, its low publicity and everything but usually these kind of shows are the ones you should go for than those overhyped mega blockbusters. just look at "Crash". it won 3 Academy awards! *smiles* that was my and wan dimples' first ever movie date btw. haha. amusing it seems that every of our outings feels like the first date. we have never run out of crazy conversations and evil,fun schemes. its' wonderful.
ah yes, see Battle of the Bands. he's in the Finals! nyahahaha =)

anyway. wont blog much cuz i need to update you all on pictures. plaza sing, sembawang park and other miscelleanous places. courtesy of my sis' camera, kinah's n70, hani's cam & sue's memory card =)

geram, gradient tool, giggles.

this layout will do for the moment.
why do i've this feeling it'll stay for a long time? ahaha.

today some kentalan cinta monyet couple accused my sis of something she didnt do.
i do not fathom why they had to blame my sister from their own relationship failure. they apparently didnt want to blame each other so they pulled my sis in making her the scapegoat. i got real pissed. i fought with the moron who called my sis. i asked for evidence where my sister is to be blamed. he couldnt give me any. he had the cheek to put on a step gangster attitude too. cakap besar. puuui. main baju. right. i tell the police on you and you're dead meat, boy.
stand on your feet and solve your own problem la. merepekness wanna blame on others. apa saja. i mentioned "principal's office" and he chickened out by saying "whateverlah". sheesh. nothing else to say la tu. irritating. spoilt half of my lovely afternoon. grr.

the cck primary kids are alright. the EM3 students are a great bunch. very fun. tml's girls day out with the ladies. cant believe kinah's going DUBAI!! my God. and i'm going KL end of this month. weee. btw, congrats to wan for getting his KDJ band into the Battle of the Bands' Finals! :D

bittergourd.

to annoy a girl when she's having periods is asking for HELL. "Hell hath no Fury like a Woman Scorned"? yeah. something like that.
its bad enough every part of her body is aching. not to mention the horrible continous come-and-go stomach cramps.
everything around her does not feel right. she feels fat. she feels like the most ugliest girl on earth. she has not appetite for anything but chocolates. the slightest thing makes her just want to break down and cry. even watching her favourite baby cheetahs on animal planet makes her teary. all she wants to do is sleep. lie on bed, sniffing into her smelly pillow. she doesnt feel like going out.the weather is either too hot or way too cold for her. she feels like punching the lights out of someone. or biting hard on something. no sweet words from her man could even cheer her up. she doesnt speak, she shouts and screams. she feels like jumping down from somewhere very high. she spends 20 minutes in the bathroom just sitting down on the toilet floor with hot steaming water gushing onto her. she hugs herself tight, yet feeling no sense of warmth or love.
she feels terribly dead and lonely.
its like having 7 days of hangover.
no man can ever understand what a girl is facing during her periods unless he has been one before.
so dont try to bullshit to your girlfriends if you say you understand perfectly well what she's going through. you'll get more spit and spat. just get her a big box of chocolates, a small card saying you love her, and carefully get out of her way. her PMS period will go away, thats for certain. just be patient. it's worth everything.

*sighs*

free.

i just broke free from hell. im jobless but im relieved.
the boss is not God. she didnt create the sun, the moon and the lovely shining stars. she can try to break me down but my faith is stronger. and she owes me two months of CPF and my pay. she is not God.
people, do try to stay optimistic with me.
its time to start anew.

on the other hand, i want to keep a butterfly. the butterflies at the zoo's Fragile Forest were wonderfully tame and enchanting.

i will definitely miss my colleague, shaista and the kids. she almost cried when she saw my little goodbye note for her. the kids didnt know im leaving though. i kissed, hugged, played and talked to them like normal on my last day. its painful to think about it as they're really attached to me. will upload the pics of me n shaista when im better. have a good day,all.

ants on the apple.

my weekend was burnt with the parents-teacher conference. so i had to OT on a sunday. i daresay it went well for my first. there were very fussy and rude parents. and very expressive kiasu ones that made us almost wanting to bang our heads on the walls. we got those at the very end of both days so it wasnt so bad. hmmm. yeah. it wasnt that bad. phew. there were some whom actually say their thanks to us after noticing their child's progress at home. so the nice ones made up the not-so nice ones. haha.

got me thinking, what do i want my kid to know at the age of 4? 90% of the parents want their children to know how to read a book by themself. and to count till 100. hmm. is that too much or is it okay to expect so? at my age of 4, i remember swinging high up in the playground. making friends with everybody living in my block. playing with cupcakes dolls. looking at an ABC chart, a Parts of a Body chart and a 123 chart pinned up by my father. it wasnt a pressurizing stage at all. in fact, i loved being 4. i wonder if the kids are really enjoying themselves. i'll ask them that when school reopens. seems like they have too many enrichment programmes other than daily school. at the age of 4. scary.

the adorable wan had a ska performance at Celebrations on sunday. anyone who went there and took photos, do msg me. i want his cap photos la :)

chocolate cookies.

the darnest things the lil cute tyrants say.

Cultural Studies.
audi prasanto, 4 years old:
Sharks,sharks jahat(evil) kan? sharks jahat must catch and throw away.
me:
Throw away? audi want to throw them where?
him:
Catch them and throw away in the dustbin.

i'm definitely staying on for the kids.

Tora dost daram.

have not updated for a while.i am so deprieved of my girlfriends' companionship. and all my other friends too. i miss you all. im getting along okay-okay with my working lifestyle, the synchronisation is there, im attached to the kids, and my colleagues now all know that i'm crazy. its just the distance and the working hours la. and the fatigue. i cant wait for june holidays. i heard the teachers have two weeks of off. yesh. you read that right. so book me now okay? :) we can go to the beach everyday. and make a two weeks camp there too. heehee.

Tora Dost Daram is by the way I love you in Farsi. found a real cool page with I Love Yous in all kind of languages. check it out here http://www.faqs.org/faqs/romance-faq/part3/section-1.html

take note, dont buy flowers on Vday alright? super expensive and cliche. get flowers on normal days la. more sweeter, more spontaneously romantic. like get her a bouquet of daisies on her most suckiest day. like a monday. i think that'll be more wonderful :) Vday is like an over-rated day. too OTT. just check out the adverts in the newspapers! more vday adverts than news. haha.
oklah i wont talk much. up to you to celebrate it or not aight? i know im not. cuz every weekend,be it fri, sat, or sun, with him, feels like one to me. and it never runs out of its romance factor too. like, 50 first dates. lol. we try to avoid movies. or town. we go for simple walks. beaches. stars. nature. simple, simple stuff that makes us truly saintly happy.

before i forget, congrats to my bro for his O Level results! its scary to know all of us siblings are growing up fast. right now, everybody in the family is working. my sis works during her weekends. my brother is a full-time-going-part time soon once he goes to poly. its scary to know years ago, the 3 of us goondus wore similiar jackets and prancing about in genting highlands with our parents chasing after us. who gets married first? *shivers* lets not talk about that. heh.

been long since ive cam-whored. im so in need of new pictures. haha. good sunday you all. have a great smashing month! and do make a deadline for all your goals. else you wont go about pursuing them. i know i've a big goal with a deadline in year 2011. next post, insya allah when i update, GOALS. *smiles*
