Transformers and Shopping

26th July 2007 (Thursday)

today, Jonathan and I, the two most outdated people in the world went to cure our deprivation by watching TRANSFORMERS in KLCC...

it turned out really REALLY GOOD...

at first, i thought that Transformers may be a little lame considering its about a bunch of alien robots who can transform into cars... but it turned out awesome... hee hee...

it was really cool.. the graphics and stuff... it had a nice plot and everything.. the only thing was that Megatron had died a little too fast.. i thought that it would have abit more action or drama before he actually dies....

after the movie, we went to makan at the FoodCourt again.. (Jon was being a dear and teman-ed me makan breakfast before the movie and THANKYOU for the movie ticket ya!! ^^ )

we headed to Kinokuniya Book Store after that.. after much debate, i bought a book called Voices by Ursula LeGuin.

after that, i headed over to MidValley to meet with ChoyLing for dinner. she was working there part time, as a survey officer with her boyfriend.. i felt like such a lamp post there.... >.<>

i reached MidValley about an hour earlier and decided to go shopping...

my shopping spree started the moment i entered Zara... it was awesome.. i had probally turned the shop upside down looking for clothes.. and in the end.. i bought..

then at MNG..

at GUESS... the bags were at 40% discount.. so i got this one..

finally.. at Vinci, i was already feeling bad after exiting Guess... so i just got this...

all together i think i spent about RM400++... c=

i bought all these in one hour... hahahaha.... father's should never give their daughter's credit cards... super dangerous..... lolz

Love holds no boundaries..

i got bored again.. so.. yeah.. i drew this.. with reference to some girly diary.. c=

its symbolic...

the picture is not very clear though.. but you can click on it to see a larger one..
hee hee..

lets see who can guess this right... hee hee... c=

The Potter Talk

* DO contain spoilers.. *

The Final Harry Potter book!!!!!!!

i have waited and waited for sooo long.. and finally it's out!!!

i got it on Sat.. ( 21st July 07 ) and finished it on that day itself.. c=

it was magical...


the official price for the normal book is RM 109.90... and some idiots like Tesco and Carrefour are selling it for RM 69.90 only.....

anyways..
i only got a free T-Shirt from pre-booking HP7 from POPULAR BOOK STORE..

i wannnn Ben's OWL!!!!
my shirt from Popular is soooo huge.. i can only drown in it !!!

[ Shirt too large for photo to be taken]

HEDWIGGGGG.....!!!!!!

SNIFF!!!

among everyone that died... Hedwig's was the most sudden... she didn't even get to hoot ! she only got to sulk at Harry for cooping her up in her cage for so long.. she had been with Harry since his first wand.... sniff....

maybe JK Rowling thinks that Hedwig too insignificant in the final book and so.. might as well just kill her off? poor poor Hedwig...

THE TWINS!

at first i thought that George losing an ear was bad enough.. but .. but when she had decided to seperate the twins... by killing Fred... that was so cruel..... i was soo sad... how can she seperate the twins!!!! what would become of Weasley's Wheezes?? it wouldn't be the same anymore without Fred....

but Mrs Weasley was way cool in the ending when she was dueling with Belatrix Lestrange.. she called her BITCH ! WHOA!!! never knew she had it in her!!

HERMIONE!
and poor Hermione.. she's risking everything... to help Harry fight Voldemort.. including her parents.... she was willing to modify her parents memory into thinking that their biggest life long dream is to move to Australia and that they never had a daughter... she did this to protect them.... so sweet and so sad....

LUPIN AND TONKS
!! Lupin and Tonks died together.... that's so sad too... now Teddy Remus Lupin's an orphan...

MAD-EYE MOODY
( i don't really care much about Tonks.. ) oh yea.. Mad-Eye Moody.. who would have thought that he was going to die so soon....

OH MY GOSH! I FEEL SO SAD FOR SNAPE!!!

Snape loved Lily till the day he died...

so kesian... sniff sniff... he loved Lily so much.... ever sine they were kids.. he was peaking and spying at Lily from behind a bush.. till Lily got married... and when he was about to die, he asked Harry to look at him.. so that he could see his eyes.. Lily's eyes...

DRACO MALFOY
oh.. i also didn't like that Draco Malfoy played such a mini role in this book... i thought that he would have played a bigger role.. but he had been reduced to nothing but a coward, always hiding behind his mother's shadow....

sniff ... i like Draco.. and its not because of Tom Felton!

( but he is seriously cute though... ^^)

THE HOUSE ELVES

But i really liked Kreacher for turning over a whole tree... he/ it was so sweet in the end.. leading the army of House Elves against Voldemort... but i kinda hoped that Dobby would be there too.. together.. the 2 HouseElves happily as friends when Kreacher apologizes to Dobby, and Dobby giving the other a pat on the back.. WHHY MUST DOBBBYY DDIIIEEE????? i liked Dobby... he was so sweet.. Dobby's the real Hero! he saved them all.... Harry should have known better than to speak Voldemort's name.. Ron told him that it was taboo!! HE CONTRIBUTED.. MORE LIKE CAUSED DOBBY'S DEATH !!

WHAT I DIDNT LIKE:

i didn't like the 19 years later part... its like she didn't care anymore...i can't explain... but the ending sucked...the names of the kids were.. so... predictable.. and the name ALBUS SEVERUS POTTER... sucks! >.<

i also didn't really like the part where they supposedly stayed at Grimmauld Place, i think.. for months... and nothing happened... it was such a waste of time... and i would think that Voldemort would keep his Horcruxes in better places which are much harder to get to .. like the cave, for example.....



Overall, i liked the book except for the ending... its still better than the 5th book to me though.. hahaha... c=
now, im tempted to re-read fom the first book onwards again....

i remember the times when we used to bring Harry Potter to school and tried to read it while the teachers were not looking... I remember Miss Doh scolding me for reading Harry Potter in class when i should be concentrating on my SPM... hahahahahaha... ^^


The Harry Potter series has ended.. and it feels as if a part of my childhood has ended as well...

i kinda grew up with Harry.. i think that most of us did as well... c=

Of Goats Milk and Lamb Chop..

yesterday.. i decided to be a little adventurous... and so, i drank goat's milk...



"mmmeeehhhhhhh" says the goat.


yes.. instead of our daily cow's milk.. i decided to betray my species (i still cannot forgive Jin Hang for giving me that horrible nickname that would follow me and haunt me forever as long as i am in the same school as sue ling... cause she likes spreading it around.. >.< ) to drink goat's milk...

i looked at the boiled milk and saw some tiny coagulated pieces of milk skin (sapi) as they call it in malay.. floating about on the surface of the milk... it looked rather disgusting.. like white vommit...

[ PICTURE REMOVED BECAUSE TOO DISGUSTING]

i took a sniff and it somehow smelled to me like...




lamp chops!!!

the goats milk smelled like lamb chops for some weird, unknown reason...
i took a sip.. and forced those tiny bits down my throat as well.... it tasted alright.. it wasn't that bad... but there was a hint of salty taste in the milk.. SALTY MILK DOES NOT TASTE GOOD..

the after taste of lamb chops lingred in my mouth for ages before i washed it away with some lemon tea..

it was like drinking lamb chop...

hmm.... lamb-chop-in-a-bottle... it's sure to be a big hit!

hahahahahahahahaha!

SOOO SIEN.... ^^

sooooo sien during the holidays.. so i decided to draw something...


i saw the flowers sitting in a corner of my room collecting dust and decided to just sketch a picture of it... i was talking to clinton on the phone when i drew it...
hahaha... c=

its the one he gave me during our first date which seemed like ages ago... though now the flowers are kinda dry and shrivelled up... and i think that it stinks a little too!! lolz...

after drawing it.. i decided to mail it to him in Miri since he sends letters back and everything...
( he is soooo sweet...) so.. i hope that he'll like it ...




Before: as fresh as can be.. and guess wat.. it smelllsss liiikkeee rrrooosseeesss!!!!!!!!!!!!

Died: has turned... black.... and it stinks.......






oh well...

Funeral: ........................................

REALLY BAD LUCK LORRR....

WAH!!!!

CRAPPY SHEET WEIII!!!

my first time at Maisons.... everything started out kinda nice... the atmosphere was good except for the choking smoke... which was ofcourse unavoidable and a necessity in such places... the music was cool.. and there were alot of ppl... i even met my college friends outside.. and i thought that today would be really nice and indeed would be very fun...

however.. slowly.. things started to fall apart...


firstly.. poor Beverly's sandals/heels died even before we started dancing!!
so she had to live with dancing around in Ivan's socks.. while the dude himself had to wear his shoes without them...

then after that... we went dancing when the DJ came back... i think it was DJ Goldfish.. Lynn Nee said that he was really good... we danced alot.. it was so so hot.. we started sweating like anything... we were having a really great time... we even went up to dance at the podium..there were so so so many people.. till it was so difficult to move, and difficult to breathe...

after alot of sweating and dancing... we decided to go back up for a drink .. then i realised that my bag was not where it was supposed to be... Lynn had hid our handbags behind the cushion of the sofa... till it was completely out of sight before we went dancing.. but when we went back there.. i saw my shocking pink MNG bag peeking out from behind the emerald green cushion...
at first.. i thought that perhaps... maybe.. nothing had happened.. till i unzipped my bag and realised that... my phone was gone... the first thought in my head was...

" where the hell is my phone!!!?!?!?!?!?!? i can't believe that this is happening to me!!! where the hell is my freakin phone!! "

then i looked for sieu theng's phone that she had kept in my bag.. i searched frantically among the cosmetics in my bag and found her samsung...
then i quickly told Lynn that i had lost my phone... she got scared and checked her bag... her camera and sieu theng's other phone was not there...
we were damn worried and looked for our phones and camera...

suddenly.. i heard a loud crash and turned around... THEN !!

i saw this guy fall onto the wooden floor in front of the table.. and another dude kept bashing the victim's head with whatever he could get his hands on.. glasses, bottles.. his own fists... it was so scary.... it was the first time that i had witnessed something so real.. and so near.. right in front of my eyes....

the fights continued.. and i think i screamed along with some other girls.. then i hopped to the other sofa beside ours.. which was further away from the scene.. hoping that i would be a little safer... but when i turned my head to my left.. my eyes widened when i saw a guy bleeding horribly from a head injury.. then i thought that i wasn't that safe after all...

i can't really remember what happened next .. but i remember hearing Poh Juan's voice calling us to go down the stairs and to quickly get out of the place... i guess my legs seemed to understand him.. and obeyed his command..

i began to run towards the stairs and climb down when i heard clashing sounds infront, beside and behind me.. then i felt a throbbing pain on my hand...i looked down and my hand was swollen.. there was a purple lump.. i looked on the stairs.. i saw a glass... i looked up.. i saw a dude carrying a chair.. obviously going to throw it down at us.. ( us.. being those on the stairs)
then i remember imitating the girl in front of me who suddenly decided to squat and cover her head with her hands while screaming... and i did the same not knowing why i did that.. after that.. i saw that the stairs had been blocked by a chair.. i think someone threw it.. i can't really remember if i actually saw the chair land or what..
cause it was all so messy... so so messy...

but during the entire commotion.. all i could think about was my phone and getting down the stairs as soon as possible.. i could not care less about the throbbing pain on my hand which began to swell into the size of a mini purple ping pong ball to my ignorance.. or what if the glass had fallen onto my head instead.. or if i had gotten hit by the chair and somehow landed in the hospital..

i somehow managed to escape from the mess.. and was reunited with the others awhile later..
after resting awhile outside.. some of us decided to pop back into the club when the gangs were settling their "business" .. we traced our steps back to our table..

the second time inside... was very different from the previous.. i was excited, happy at first.. but this next visit.. came across.. grave... and.. i walked up those stairs and passed those ppl who puked, smoked or danced as if i was in a dream.. a nightmare.. in which i would wake up soon to find my happy pink sony ericsson Z610i smiling at me beside my bed... but... aihhhh...

i saw drops of dark red blood on the floor where the fight was held.. and looked desperately for our lost items which we all deep down knew that it would be impossible to reclaim...

we got so pissed and fed up we decided to go mamak instead.. sieu theng then wrote a long, and very emo sms and sent it to my phone.. hoping the thief would read it and at least returm Lynn Nee's camera memory card... no reply..... evil arse...

we talked till 3 something i think... and went back to Lynn Nee's house..
we played with Ice Cream (Lynn's dog)... until Lynn noticed that my hand had swelled up really badly..
so.. she boiled me an egg to rub against my ugly purple injury... it worked.. who would have guessed.. eggs are useful not only to provide protein and give us high cholestrol.. but it can flatten my swell as well...
we stayed up till her maid woke up.. till her sister's woke up and got ready for school... we bathed.. and slowly went to bed....

i left earlier that day when the rest were still sleeping... and i thought that at least i could blog about this horrible FRIDAY 13TH 2007.. but.. i couldn't cause.. my internet choose that happy day to die!!!!

so now.. i'm in starbucks many days later.. blogging about that horrible horrible day!!!

i got a new phone.. decided to pay for it myself.. same model.. SONY ERICSSON Z610i.. the blue one though...

the morale of the story : do not bring phone or wallet or camera to Clubbing..
do not trust your belongings with people you don't know..


TO WHOEVER WHO STOLE MY PHONE!!! MAY YOU BURN IN HELL AND BE EATEN ALIVE BY THOSE BUGS IN THE MUMMY RETURNS!!!

FREAKIN ARSE!!!!!

NOTE TO THE THIEF:
i feel so sorry for you thief.. so poor until you need to go steal girl's phone for cash isit??
poor poor man.. i feel so so sorry for you.... hope my donation to "charity" has helped you a little...

Book Review

THE SHADOW OF THE WIND

by Carlos Ruiz Zafon

<-- the genius behind it all....

this story... had been written beautifully.. it is truly a masterpiece...

i would really like to thank Joshua for introducing this marvelous work to me.. when he told me that it was really good.. i didn't think that it would be this good.... its amazing...

i was absolutely in love with the language and the way Zafon had written it... everytime i read a chapter or two, it just seems to linger in my mind and i feel it within my heart, every word that had been carefully and cleverly chosen which carved out the entire portrait...

"Dawn was breaking, and a purple blade of light cut through the clouds, spraying its hue over the fronts of mansions and the stately homes that bordered Avenida del Tibidabo. A blue tram was crawling lazily uphill in the mist."

" The city is like a sorceress, you know Daniel? It gets under your skin and steals your soul without knowing it..."

apart from that, it has an amazing plot.. it is never dull.. it just keeps you guessing and the dramatic twists just leaves you wanting to go on reading..even when your eyes are feeling dry and awfully heavy thanks to the sandman who had been pouring endless sand into your eyes, hoping that you'll fall into his horrible trap to make you sleep, despite how tempting and how soft and comfy your bed is... you'll go on reading.. ^^ cause most likely, youre gonna stick tooth picks or match sticks in your eyes to keep them from closing... just like this poor guy here....

it has been hours since i put the book down and back into the cupboard but i am still caught up and am lost within the story as if i was one of the characters in the book.. living in the dangerous and twisted world created by the author... i think i'm still a little disturbed by it.. hahahahaha

anyway, i don't wanna give out any spoilers... so... for those who love to read.. this is a MUST READ !!!

^^ so.. GO READ!!! and get disturbed too !!!

wrong... so wrong...

i looked at my half finished circle-a-word puzzle which had quickly become my new companion during the dull moments of my holiday and shoved it aside with a miserable sigh when my mother's ringing voice called to me from the other side of my room door asking me for one last time if i would follow her to her friend's daughter's baby shower.

with nothing better to do i agreed..

it was also partly because i was curious to witness the celebration of the one-month-old infant whose parents were around my age.. yes.. the mother of the child is 20 while the dad on the other hand is only 19.. or 18 ++ if his birthday had not passed yet..

come to think of it, perhaps another reason that i had decided to go was to scare myself to prevent me from engaging in any activity that would cause me to walk in those shoes that are currently stuck on their feet now.. and if that was my main reason.. it worked.. i don't want their shoes....

when i looked at the boy, barely a man, tall and lanky, his face still baring signs of a kid himself , cradling his own baby in his arms.. a shiver went down my spine.. it looked.. so .. wrong.. he is only 19 !! i couldn't imagine any of my friends being parents now.. it was all too weird.. i tried to shake away the vivid images of my imaginations which my brain had so happily conjured up but without avail. the topic stuck to my brain like a hungry leech.. unwilling to let go of the fat animal whose blood it happily feasts upon...

i couldn't imagine what life would be like if i somehow had a kid now.. my entire life would be ruined.. i would have to stop college or university to hide my gradually expanding belly due to the shame apart from having to face the dagger-like rumours or gossips that would be spreading quick like a disease during the cold bitter months..

in conclusion, call me old fashion but.. pre-marital sex now.... super risky.. so don't do it.. hahahaha....

intro ^^

blogging...

hrmm.. i have always wanted to start a blog.. but then after realising that my life consists of a monotonous ritual of waking up, going to school, coming home, finishing homework, watching tv or going online... i decided to give up..

years later, (now) though my life still does not consist of much, or any.. action packed events filled with goblins and magic wands.. i finally started to have my own life..

since college, i have been granted much more freedom.. having my own car and everything.. is just really great.. meeting new friends and everything...
i would say that i grew up quite a bit.. meeting different people had opened my eyes, and given me a taste of how the world really is... a rather cruel place where people though denying it, are still prejudiced towards those who are.. different, not queer.. just different.. from the rest of us.. i admit that i too.. that i have contributed to some.. less.. proud-of-moments.. and i am sorry..

anyway, back to blogging...

technically.. isn't blogging kinda like a diary ?.. only online where the whole world can read about your thoughts and desires.. but aren't diaries supposed to be a secret where only you and you alone are accessible to it? unless of course your mother or annoying sibling decides to "accidentally" stumble across it... and....

oh well... i am a bit old fashioned and i still keep a diary..the book kind...
this blog.. is just an experimental thing to fill up my thousands of seconds that if not, would be wasted by me in front of the television while being brainwashed into loony-ville by a talking yellow sponge and his mentally challenged pink starfish of a friend..

^^

usually when you write and essay or anything.. the teacher always asks you to write a conclusion.. so that it would be more presentable or something like that..
i however, can't seem to think of any conclusion for this post..
so..

~the end~
