To all you people who still have that little speck of patriotism in you..
Happy Independence Day :)
Or as we say it here..
Merdeka!
(Say it as many times as you want but ideally it's 7 times lo)
p.s: Fireworks display was awesome. And I could see all of it without having people pushing and trampling on my feet or obstructing my already limited-due-to-height-deprived view :)
People who can't host really should not be emcees. They make themselves look like fools. Seriously. I don't pity them. Worse still are the people who hired them. Or maybe they hired themselves. GRRR.
Bored already?
Lost?
Bet you are.
Sorry. Was just ranting bout the two emcees for the Star On Stage competition organised by the TBS Student Council. It's a singing competition. Sort of like a Malaysian Idol thingamajig with criticism from judges and all that jazz. Although I won't exactly call the criticism real criticism. The finals was held yesterday at the main campus. Yes, I know this post is a day old. I do keep track of the days. I was just too dry to blog yesterday. Sue me.
Anyway, I was dead tired yesterday and honestly did not have the mood to go for it. But I made a promise and I bought the ticket already. Besides, I had a friend who made the finals and I didn't mind going to support him. I got a pretty lousy goody bad with a shyte CD and a hair liner. Nope, not eye liner. Hair liner. I dare not touch it. At least I got a drink.
The friend.
My ranting buddy :D Love her craziness.It finally happened.
I knew it would eventually.
The number of times it almost happened is innumerable.
It's so embarassing.
Now I can't say I never did it.
I was damn proud to be able to tell the guys some time ago that it never happened to me before.
Sigh. Sorry lor.
For the record, it was 7.45. In the morning. A MONDAY morning. AND I was distracted. Whoever had the idea to put lectures at 8.00 am should be shot.
AND yes, I did feel the pain after witnessing the damage.
Yup. I scratched mum's car. And it wasn't pretty. :( :(
Sara: Moral Education couldn't be worse than Malaysian Studies can it, God?
God: We'll see.
BAH.
Anyway, I watched Ever After again. That kind of Cinderella story? Yeah, it's probably like the gazillionth time that I've watched it yet if given the chance I will watch over and over again. So what if I hate Drew Barrymore? And yeah, the hero doesn't really have the kind of looks I will drool over. But I don't know why I still adore the movie. Maybe I love it because it's not so cliched in a way. More real. I like that. Like the hero does not rescue the heroine in the end and the heroine is just not a damsel in distress. Girl POWER.
Cant help it lar. I love rom-com flicks. I still cry at the end when I watch Selena. I still drool over Leo in Titanic even though he looks like shit now. I still watch Sound of Music and sing along with it. Phantom of the Opera even. Shows like The Mummy, The Mummy Returns and National Treasure I can still watch without getting bored. Gosh, I love other countries history.
Mummy: What you watching?
Sara: The Mummy Returns.
Mummy: AGAIN??!!
Sara: YUP.
Mummy: Haven't you watched it a million times before?
Sara: YUP.
( Yes, exaggeration runs in the family )
Don't laugh at me lar.
Pretty sure you have a movie you can watch a million times over too.
I. WANT. THOSE. SHADES.
I. NEEEEED. THEM.
SHOWER. ME. WITH. MONEY. PLEASE.
MAKE. ME. A. HAPPY. PERSON.
I. NEED. TO. MARRY. A. RICH. TYCOON.

NO. I am not THAT materialistic.
NO. I don't plan to marry someone for money.
YES, it's a joke.
YES, I still hold true to my values.
YES, I'm bored out of my wits.
Geez. Some people are so quick to judge :)
Yeah I know I haven't been updating. Cause I'm lazy and lacking inspiration. I think I've lost my spark :( But I shall reclaim it when college starts!
Anyway. Pictures will make up this post. Since the saying goes that a picture is worth a thousand words, I'm just going to exploit that saying. I don't really care if its supposed to mean something profound when people say it so leave me alone.
Saturday. Eu-gene's farewell. He's off to the US and he promises to take pictures of his roommate for us. This girl wants to see his roommate half naked. Horny as ever.
Well, if you can't tell who Eu-gene is, you need help. Like seriously.
Met up with an old friend who just returned from the states today. One friend goes and another returns. Life is strange. We've kept in touch even though its been years since we talked face to face and she's one of the sweetest people I know. Now she says she wants to stay in Malaysia and we might be uni mates in the future since she has her sights on the same uni :)
We go back a long way. And its great to know I've not been forgotten. Shopping soon :)
If you can read this, this post IS an update. This post is blank mainly because it reflects the happenings in my life :) Will have more pics later over the weekend hopefully.
Highlight to read the above extract.
Whether it's the culture we live in or the fact that I am to ignorant for my own good, it doesn't make much of a difference.
I didn't know 'shit' was actually a vulgarity in the English language until recently. Dumb.
I do say 'shit' when I curse at times. I just didn't know it was promoted to a swear word. Cause I tought shit just meant defecating lor. Whatever. It sounds better when I say " I need to shit! " or I'm shitting! " then saying " I'm defecating!! ", right?
Since I have NOTHING to say at the mo..
I've never been happier to do a tag. Even if it is boring. At least it fills up space. I see people with spears coming at me because I haven't been updating.
1. What was the last thing you did that you pleased your parents?
Oh dear. I'm such a bane. I erm...told them my plans to do well in college?

Harry Potter 5 bookmarks are selling for an outrageous price of RM 15.90 a piece at MPH. They marked up the price to such a ridiculous figure that I couldn't help but roll my eyes when I saw it. And gave a huge, LOUD exclamation on the price. I think the cashier lady doesn't like me now....
When the first movie came out, the bookmarks were only selling for RM 3!! I bought those but I really wouldn't part with my 16 bucks for A bookmark.
I love bookmarks :( But at that exorbitant price...ROAR.
My Perfect Lover Boyfriend. Sorry, I ain't looking for a lover right now.
RULES:
1. The tag victim has to come up with 8 different points about his/her perfect lover.
2. Have to mention the gender of his/her perfect lover.
3. Tag eight other victims to join this game and leave a comment on their blog.
4. If you are tagged the second time, there is NO need to do this again.
5. Lastly, and most importantly, HAVE FUN DOING IT.
Right.
1. Confidence.
Right. Ya'll know how much I love confidence. It shows you don't let anyone stand in your way and not let anyone dictate the way you should live. Its about being confident being the best you can be. Don't confuse confidence with arrogance ya.There's a fine line between them so watch it.
Confidence is sooo attractive.
2. Treats me the same in front of his mates.
Look, I don't mean you slap me on the back and give me the standard guy handshake when you meet me. Or do those shoulder to shoulder greetings okay. I mean don't treat me as ONE of your mates but just treat me the same when we are with your mates like if we were alone. Like you aren't ashamed of me :)
3. Humour.
I love, love, LOVE a humourous guy. A guy who knows how to poke fun at himself every now and then and knows how to see the brighter side of life. I may be serious at times, maybe a lil too serious, so I want someone who can make me laugh at times like that :D
4. Honesty.
Enough said. Who likes a lying jerk?
5. A guy who isn't too clingy.
Yeah, I would love to spend time with you. But please. Not every minute of everyday. Take time to hang with your mates ( as long as you don't lie to me!). I want time to hang with my babes too. To gossip and go shopping. A guy who would love to go shopping with me would be a bonus.
6. Not too vain.
Ever seen guys who are too vain? Ugh. It's such a turn off. I mean, I want you to care about your appearance but not to the extent of looking into mirrors every time you pass one. Or if you are too picky choosing your clothes, I suggest you stop it. Leave the dressing and make up to the girls okay.
7. Ambitious.
I love a guy who has a goal in life. I don't mean what you plan to be in 20 years. At least know what you want to study and not take time for granted. Cause the world ain't gonna stop spinning for you. Stop bumming and get off your lazy ass to make something of yourself. Prove it that you have what it takes to be someone successful in life and that all your talk isn't cheap. But watch it. Don't be over ambitious. Cause if you are, you just might lose out on everything you have achieved so far.
8. Friendly and sociable.
Yeah. Smile. Talk. I don't mean be the most outgoing person you can be cause even I'm not miss outgoing. Just be friendly to people. Dare to mingle and make new friends. Enjoy getting to know new people and such. Oh. And be nice to my friends. I don't care who you are. Once you start bitching bout my friends, you don't really deserve much respect.
The end. No, I am not going to tag anyone. Cause I'm lazy and you can't make me.

To end this post...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUDREY!!!
I loooooooooooooooooooooooove you babe!! A million hugs and kisses.
You are all grown up now you hot chick. Too bad I'm straight too or else I would totally fall for you :)
Those were the days when you hated people calling you by your first name, when you only allowed close friends to call you Audrey, when 90% of the girl population in our school liked the same guy to the times when we went to school to play badminton cum guy scouting and when we used IK period to scout for guys at the basketball court. Remember? ;)
Anyway. Its been a while since I last had a good conversation with you. But heck, you'll be one babe I'll cherish forever. Muax muax :)
Blogging is entertaining.
For many reasons of course. But when famous bloggers bitch about each other, it's entertainment alright. I had a laugh when I read about the feud between him and her. Man, she ain't pretty and he ain't handsome. The suit each other quite well no matter how much they deny it. Yeah, she looks pretty in her pictures but well, her photoshop skills rock. That's all there is to it. Admit it, she looks terrible without makeup and those fake eyelashes. And he.... aih. Enough said.
I missed blogging.
Anyway. Finals are finally over and I can breathe easy again. And get sufficient sleep.
Can't say I am very satisfied with my results for English. I spent hours, poured sweat and blood into the assignment and she gave my group low marks. Grrr. *smack smack* ROAR... To make things more infuriating, people who didn't contribute to the assignment got marks for the work I did for them. Oh I am not going to be that nice again next semester. Somehow, it was only after I got the marks that I started to get angry at them for not doing their share of the work. Stupid me. Nevermind, I'm smarter now.
Malaysian Studies. This will probably be the last time I rant about it. The final paper sucked big time. I crammed all night and the tips she gave didn't help. it helped for one or two questions but that's about it. Oh how I loathe MS. Anyway, its over. I will pass. But the kiasu part in me would wanna get the highest possible grade.. I'll settle for a pass.
Moral next semester :( :( :( What are the chances that the higher education minister will abolish the paper? Maybe he'll get a knock on the head and realise that it wouldn't help to have the subject taught in college. I don't need the extra workload. Moral didn't help in secondary school and it wouldn't help now. Knock some sense into him PLEASE. Somebody. ANYONE. Or maybe I'll give him a knock on the head myself.
Final paper for Accounts was okay. Man, it felt so good when the figures balanced.
Econs and Business Computing was fairly okay as well. As long as I didn't make any careless mistakes...
Now all I have to do is wait for the results to come out. *shivers*
Btw, I have hols now :) Call me out for movies!!!

I would have blogged about this sooner but I had finals.
I watched The King and I Musical on Saturday!
I felt bad ditching my friends after saying I would go to the rally with them. But I really wanted to go for the musical!! I bugged my dad for days and he managed to get the tickets for me. Did I mention they were FREE tickets? That's why I couldn't let them go to waste The only downside was that I had to forgo the rally. The tickets weren't great seats. Heh. Grand Circle seats aren't very grand la. Misleading words. Anyway, the seats were okay. I couldn't see the faces of the actors clearly, but no complains whatsoever. The music alone satisfied my soul enough.
Go watch it!! Its good. Real good. I am such a sucker for musicals. I love, love, LOVE them :D
Okay, to be fair, there were one or 2 boring parts la. Parts where they didn't sing were boring. But the overall performance was fab. I give it a 8.75 out of 10.
The King and I musical is currently being staged at Istana Budaya. Student price is only RM 100. The musical revolves around the real life adventures of English widow Anna Leonowens when she became a governess for the children of King Mongkut of Siam in the 1860s. The script is based on the book `Anna and The King of Siam' by Margaret Landon.
The actors and actresses can sing. They sing real good. I was in awe. Add in a dash of romance, funny moments, cute kids and well, I'm hooked. Told you I was a sucker.
Sorry I don't have pics to post. Cameras were strictly forbidden in the theater and well, I didn't have much time to break the rules and snap a pic or two. It didn't help that there were security personnel nearby. They told us not to eat SWEETS in the theater. They were only SWEETS LA. I ate them anyway.
The pictures I took outside the theater looked horrible so I wouldn't wanna share them with you. No offense.

Just remembered I still have Cheeps tag to do. Next post ya. I still need to come up with good stuff that won't bore you guys to death.
*
Now that the semester is over, I think I won't have much things to rant about. Nobody to get on my nerves la and make me mad :(
The last time someone got on my nerves was the cleaner in TBS. Ugh. Enough said.
You haven't experienced torture/ pain/ hell/ agony if you haven't gone for a Jusco member's day sale.
Believe me.
PS: Cheeps's tag is in the works. Inspiration is seriously lacking in this one.
Back to revisions.
BCP presentation is tomorrow. *shivers*
I knew I shouldn't have looked at my friend's presentation. My stress level is hitting an all high.
As much as I feel that this BCP presentation is a bane (yeah, so I suck at this), I just can't wait for it to be over, sit through the next group's presentation and come home and bury my head in revision work.
English listening test is on Wed. God, save me.
Finals are next week. God, save me.
Practical exam is at the end of the month. God, PLEASE save me.

Do you believe in horoscopes?
I don't. Its fun to read it but I forget it the minute I turn the page. Today I was feeling uber bored and decided to check out my horoscope on friendster. The first time I've checked it since, well, friendster started giving fake horoscopes I guess.
Here's what it said..
I can't believe I am actually complying to what Cheeps said. But then again, this isn't about him.
You BETTER give me another spot on your list, Cheeps. And it better not be lower than 3rd ya hear?? Maybe you can create another group and only I will monopolise that group :) What d'ya say?? I can feel you nodding your head!!
Anyway, BCP is giving me one bloody headache. I am solely going to blame my failing eyesight on it when I go to optometrist and she/ he says my power has rocketed.
Does anyone know how to get free sounds/ multimedia effects i.e. powerpoint sounds off the net? Help out a computer illiterate here lar. I will belanja you lunch if you come look for me :)
I suddenly miss a whole bunch of people. If I haven't spoken to you in 2 weeks, you're on my list. College life minus the shyte workload is fun. It would be better if I got to see you guys every other day :)
Hah. Contradicting my last post yet again. Whatever. Blogging calms me.
More and more pro wrestlers are dropping dead. I know I sound heartless when I say it that way. But I am NOT, okay. Its not that I have a personal grudge against them. Its sad in a way but I somehow lack sympathy for them. If anything, I pity their families.
I hate the sport. If its even a sport. 'Pro wrestling'. God knows how much I hate it. I feel its just a waste of precious brain capacity. I am thankful that my brother doesn't watch anymore WWE, WWF, WWA-Z crap now. Gone are the days when I had to endure an hour or two of torture when I was forced to watch freakishly bulked up men supposedly beating the shyte out of each other when brothers hog the telly. My eyes were rolling so much that I was pretty sure they were about to fall out of their sockets lar. My mouth went dry everytime I watched an episode. Not because I was into it. God forbid. It was because I wasted all my saliva telling my brother it was all fake. The punches and kicks and whatever it is they were doing were just SO fake. And the fans. They scream and shout like it was actually real. Every time I was forced to watch an episode of WWE/WWF and seeing the fans screaming made me wanna go up to those people in the audience, shake the living daylights out of them, add in a slap or three and yell in their faces "It's all FAKE, idiot!!!! Stop yelling like some moron!! You look stupid and it isn't very becoming."
Glad I got that out of my system. I hope I didn't offend anyone. It's not like I don't like you if you enjoy watching 'pro wrestling'. That's why you and I are different. I just really dislike the sport. Those men are not hot. What's the point of watching then? I don't even want to think about the women wrestlers.
Just a little update.
I doubt I'll be updating frequently from now on till my finals are over.
But DO drop by every now and then okay? Visit my cbox maybe :)
It makes me happy happy.
I wanted to update. I felt the need to update mainly because I just can't stare at all those assignments anymore. My cerebrum is susceptible to work overload which might lead to brain damage. Heh.
And it doesn't help when friends say they have finished 99% of their work which I should have finished by now too. Oh boy. But I ain't got no computer skills lar. Save me. I should get Peter Petrelli to save me. Stop saving the world already lar. I am worth much more :)
Gosh, life sucks at times. But, I will look at the bright side although it looks kind of dim now :(
I am sleep deprived. It tells when the guys ask you if you are not getting enough sleep.
There was something I wanted to rant about. But I forgot what it was.
Sorry people.
I am sparing your eyesight by not ranting about the gazillion assignments I have due.
You see, I love all you people that read my blog :)
And I'm going to Penang tomorrow for the weekend. Perfect timing :(
I know this post is pretty pointless. But I felt the need to say something. Even if it lacks substance.
