Relief.

Friday, February 15, 2008

Well. Its over. Teaching that is.


Yup. Today is officially my last day of being a substitute teacher. My current mood? HUMONGOUS, GIGANDO RELIEF.


I don't think I'm quite there yet when it comes to teaching kids. Teaching is fine, don't get me wrong. I don't mind teaching. Its more of controlling the kids that I have a problem with. Young and boisterous. That really shoould be the defination for kids. Either that or time sure has changed since I was a kid.


I feel mean now. I really hope they get a strict replacement teacher. At least then she would be able to control them. REALLY control them. Maybe then they'll see how good they got it when I was teaching. I was too nice to them. Sometimes I wished I was stricter. But when they are so darn adorable its abit hard. Honestly, it was getting to the point where I just felt like slapping them. Rude and obnoxious they were to me. GGGRRR. So honestly, a strict teacher would benefit them because they will study as well as learn when to shut it when asked too. These rants only relate to the standard 3 students. Standard 5 kids were okay. When I have kids, I'll teach them manners till they become the epitome of a gentleman or lady :D


Sometimes.

Yeah. Sometimes. You have no idea how bad it got.
Other than that, I really had no complains working there. The other teachers were good to me and thats all I could really ask for. One of my exteachers came up to me one day.

Teacher H: Sara, now you know how I feel. *Gives me that been- there-done-that smile*
Mua: I sure do. But I did your work :D
Teacher H: *Laughs*

Anyhow, I survived. But I doubt if I stayed longer I would have survived. Strange as it may seem, I just might miss them. The kids.

Back to being a college student next week :)

*

I want class like Audrey Hepburn. Teehee. Random I know. But watch Breakfast At Tiffany's. I think I've watched it more times than I can count. You'll get my drift.

Ang Pows and Yee Sang

Sunday, February 10, 2008

You know (you probably don't), I never really loved CNY. I mean, mum tells me all these stories bout how they used to wait all year to collect ang pows, the good food and new clothes they receive for CNY.


Since I get an allowance, get good food and clothes all year round, I never really saw whats so great about CNY. Kids these days are sooo spoiled :)


Oh wait. I love collecting ang pows :) And Yee Sang :D


But really, thats about it. I hate CNY shopping. I mean the amount of people shoving around for clothes and throwing them on the floor (wait, I guess all shopping is like that) is absurd. You'd think they never saw clothes in their life. No matter. I like shopping when there is a HUGE sale and no one is there but me. Unrealistic, but if I become famous enough, people will close their shops for me. Some day.


I hate the hike in prices on almost every food item. I hated the long jams on the road when I used to travel back to Penang. Don't get me wrong, I loved to visit my grandma (maybe love is to strong a word. LIKED. Sounds better) but we never spoke more than 10 words before. Language barrier. Bet she understands me now :) Anyway, I don't travel back during CNY.


I don't like all the chinese music that radio stations and departmental stores feel the obligation to blare during this season. Horrible person right? But thats just how I feel.


So yeah, basically all I like bout CNY are the ang pows and yee sang.

p.s : Invite me for gambling :)

Have A Happy And Prosperous Chinese New Year! Xin Nian Kuai Le!

Switchfoot Concert 02.02.08

Monday, February 04, 2008

Switchfoot was awesome! Opening acts, Kill Me Butch and Altered Frequency were rocking as well. I am not a huge Switchfoot fan like Mae and Aliah, but I still managed to meet them face to face to get autographs for Mae :) I do like their music well enough though. My feet were stabbing me in the soles by the end of the night. But it was worth every cent spent on those tickets.


I hope they come back. Then this time I'll know all the lyrics to their songs.


Apart from the people pushing, (free standing mah), it was great :)

Pictures pictures! Since I am so lazy to write anymore. School, I mean WORK, tomorrow.

Aliah's hub hub.

Mae's hubby. He can sing :)

HOT. Sorry Aliah. But he is still yours :)

END.

Sweeney Todd was bloody. Not as in bloody good. Just... BLOODY. Gore and all.


I never thought I would come out feeling less than ecstatic about a Johnny Depp show but this has got to be the first. And I wanted to bring my sis to the show :( It wasn't per say, a bad movie. I love musicals and all and it wasn't bad actually. Just not what I expected.


I didn't expect decapitation of that many a time. Although it was a dark comedy, I didn't quite expect that much darkness in the film and I could barely stomach all that blood. However fake it was. Too dark, too bloody, too much slicing. However, I do give Johnny props. He is one versatile actor.


Haha. But I think I handled it wayyyy better than my companions for the day :)


Sorry guys! Thanks for going with me just because I liked Johnny but you came out sicker than a dog :(


Sooo into this song at the mo. Daughtry - Feels Like Tonight.

Rants for the day

Wednesday, January 23, 2008

Teaching can be soooo exasperating. I doubt I was that naughty when I was 9. Ugh.


They're good kids. But they are so mischievous to the point where I feel like pulling my hair out and start screaming like a regular 19 year old. But I can't, you see. Gah. If I had my way, I would give them a good shake. That way, they'll listen a little bit more and I'll get fired that much sooner too. But deep, deep, deeeeeeeeep down they are good kids. They just need a little........ shake.


Seriously, besides the fact that some of them don't listen to me and don't do my work, they are sweet. Always saying hi, always willing to carry my books no matter how little I have(without me having to ask, and constantly BEGGING to carry my books), AND they even gave me birthday presents already. Even though my birthday is a month away, they knew I won't be here till then so they surprised me with gifts already. Sweet kids. All that's lacking is a little more discipline and longer attention span and they would be the perfect bunch to teach.


I'm not complaining whatsoever (well, maybe a little. But just a little). Its not so bad really. They adore me when they aren't torturing me :)


PS: I still haven't had the chance to watch Atonement. And there are great reviews online. James McAvoy = lustworthy. Sigh. I think they stopped showing it in the cinema already. Anyway, gonna catch Sweeney Todd this friday. I neeeed my movie fix la. Its been ages since I last entered the cinema.

Okay. Back to marking papers :(

So Cheeps Won't Kick Me Down The List.

Saturday, January 19, 2008

Yup, this is for Cheeps so that he won't kick me down the ladder. God knows I've been kicked down far lower before in the past. If I haven't updated in a week, he'll just go, " Die la you. No point putting you on top anymore." Which really isn't quite so high since no one beats HIS blog. But no matter. Little Emily Bear. So cute. So talented. So jealous. I wish I had that kind of talent. Heck, I wish I had the interest. She performed this song for the first time on " The Ellen Degeneres Show". She wrote it for Ellen. Sweet kid. Yes, I'm an expert of children behaviour now. I can tell you in the first 10 minutes after meeting the child if he/she is an angel or a rascall.

You better appreciate this Cheeps! Or else I'll start making my own list soon.

Yes, this inconsequential post is just another excuse for me not to write anything more substantial. I've been thiking of one to write okay. I have an idea but it's pretty depressing. But knowing the people who read my blog, I guess it'll do.

Anyway, enjoy the music!

Gmail is being such a b****.

Now I can't even log in to check my email. Yes, I am waiting for something important. Stupid Gmail.


Ahead: Reading requiring no brain power whatsoever as it lacks substance. Read at your own discretion and don't roll your eyes.


Anyway, I think I saw Jonathan Putra (JP) from Channel V fame today at the gym. I thinkkkk. The guy looked so familiar yet I couldn't quite place him. And since the last time I actually took the time to watch Channel V was donkey years ago, I had high doubts. I wanted to go up to him and his two hot friends to put myself out of the misery (trying to dig my brain from the top to the deepest corners filled with cobwebs) of trying to remember where I had seen him before but I didn't have the guts to do it. I did turn his way more often than not though. Then I stopped because I didn't want to look like a psycho stalker. And everyone else in the gym didn't pay much attention to him so maybe I thought I had it wrong. Just another good looking guy and all that jazz. I came back and looked up his picture, yes I am SOOO the free, and I am 70% sure it was him.


Anyway, just for kicks.

I just have to say this. It would be an abomination if I didn't. I REALLY don't dig the peace signs. No matter how hot you are, peace signs just take away part of your charm. And he has two. Poor guy. So please, just smile :D

Sunday, January 13, 2008

1) I finally edited me layout. It isn't much but I think it suits me well enough. Finally got the hang of editing my template where it pleases me. I want to add more pictures in the side bar so if you have any that you believe needs to be on the Sidebar Of Fame, do tell.


One resolution down lar. More than I have ever accomplished. Waahhaha. BUT to my credit, I've never actually made resolutions in the past years that I actually bothered to remember. So you see, its a huge feat for me considering how lazy I am to look for nice templates and all.


AND yes. I like them simple.


2) I'll blog more about being a part-time teacher soon okay. But please, don't hold me to my word. I never seem to keep it on this blog. I know. Slap me.


It just seems that the mood leaves me more often than I want to let it wonder and then my cerebrum doesn't want to work anymore. Believe me, sometimes I hate being so fickle.


Oh and DO tell me what you think of this layout. Criticism welcomed. Just know that if you criticise too much, I'll never forget it and have this grudge against you for a while. Just for a while :D

Quickie!

Thursday, January 03, 2008

I am soooooooooooo sorry Adeline Heng :(

Haha.I got a job. Doesn't pay much but I'm not really after the money.

Gotta say its challenging. Seriously.

I'm gonna be a part time teacher at a primary school.

First day today and I was dead tired. They demand so much, it's scary.

Before I went into the class, the teachers warned me not to be too nice to them. Yikes. I never follow orders.

A bunch of sweet kids. But I need to be more strict I suppose. Not so manis according to my mentor. Sigh.

I'm even teaching a few of my friends' sisters and brothers la.

Pray for me:) Pray I won't strangle them by the end of the week! Hahhahaha.

A Blessed Christmas.

Tuesday, December 25, 2007

Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la la la la laaaaaaa! :D

That time of the year is here again.
Caroling the night away, seeing Christmas decorations adorn shopping malls, little kids squealing with glee at the sight of presents and bountiful dinners with loved ones.

Taking time to be with the less fortunate during this season of giving has brought a kinfd of happiness money could never buy. Try it and you'll be surprised ;)

I loveee Christmas :D

And to think it all started with a baby born in a manger on this very day :)

Have you been good all year? Teehee.

A special baby born on this day to bring salvation to all :)

An innocent angel *cough* me *cough* to bring you glad tidings of joy and well wishes.

A Christmas tree for the season.

And finally, a very Blessed Christmas to all at home. May you be abundantly blessed with all the good things life can offer.

What Major Is Right For You?

Wednesday, December 19, 2007

Curtesy of Cheeps :)

WHAT MAJOR IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

You scored as a Psychology/Sociology

You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in Psychology, Sociology, or related majors (e.g., Counseling, Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology, Social Work, or other social science majors).

It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would--it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.

Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Psychology and Sociology are both great minors to add to any major. Please post your results in your myspace/blog/journal.


Psychology/Sociology -100%
Accounting/Finance/Marketing -88%
English/Journalism/Comm -88%
Nursing/AthleticTraining/Health -81%
Education/Counseling -69%
HR/BusinessManagement -69%
French/Spanish/OtherLanguage -69%
Mathematics/Statistics -63%
Religion/Theology -56%
Biology/Chemistry/Geology -56%
PoliticalScience/Philosophy -50%
History/Anthropology/LiberalArts -38%
Visual&PerformingArts -38%
Physics/Engineering/Computer -25%



Hmmmm. I somehow knew it :) I guess I might as well take up psychology now.

Holidays have been a bore :(

Addicted to Rihanna's - Don't Stop The Music. So catchy.

I think I REALLLLY need to get a job since I won't be starting coll anytime soon and I doubt I'll be able to take another month of doing nothing. Sigh.

I wanna play paintball :) Nobody wants to play with me :(

Gone With The Wind.

Friday, December 07, 2007

Yes, I am still bumming at home while my friends are working during this holiday. I would want to work but I just don't think I have the drive to do so. Another resolution gone out the door.

BUT. I don't sleep all day okay. At least I read most of the time. And I plan to go to the gym at least 4 times a week since I have the time. Heh. Gym resolution isn't exactly working out but I'm trying.

Now I'm busy co-planning the youth caroling.

And the time I spend looking and applying for scholarships.. Bah!

Then I need to go for my IELTS exam. In KL. Sigh. I hate going so far to sit for an exam. I don't wanna sit for another English exam :( I feel it just proves that my language is just not up to par sometimes. I knowla I very kiasu sometimes. And to pay a bloody RM 500 for an exam is just plain extortion. I don't care how much the examiner is getting paid. Fly by AirAsia and sleep in a 3 star hotel next time.

Plus, tomorrow I planned to go to Taylors to settle my fees and results transcripts and I totally forgot that it was their open day :( They'll probably be so busy that they won't be anyone to assist me. Sigh. But I need my transcripts badly.

The end of my rants for the week.

***********

On a happier note.. I've been catching up on my reading. Nothing makes me happier than getting really engrossed in s good book. Or shopping for pretty, pretty clothes, shoes and bags :)Call me a nerd. I really don't care. I don't love to study, but I do enjoy reading. A lot.

Anyway, I just finished this classic book. Perhaps you have heard of it : Gone With The Wind.

People. Don't be stupid. Get your hands on it. Read it. Enjoy it.

Its not a classic written in the 1800's okay. Don't roll your eyes when I mention a classic. I know not everyone loves classics cause its hard to digest it sometimes, the words being so deep and all. But this novel is a modern classic.

Published in 1936 by Macmillan and written by Margaret Mitchell, this maginificent historical epic is a book for all times. Set during the time of the American Civil War, this is really an unforgettable tale of loss, love, families torn apart by war and a people forever changed. This book continues to earn fans and remain a favourite to this day. Set in a time when people had to act a certain way or be forever branded an outcast in society, it is the ultimate love story of beautiful, ruthless Scarlett O'Hara and the dashing, gallant soldier of fortune, Rhett Butler.

Okay, if you don't loveeeee love stories, I can assure you, there isn't more than a few kissess and pecks in the whole book. It is afterall, a fictional story set during war times and during the era of gentlemen and ladies of rich, honourable families. But the reason I love the book is because it really delves into the characters and how they have come to be.

I won't spoil it for you. Read it :)

I even gained knowledge okay. I actually looked up the American Civil War online because I was too caught up in the story and didn't really understand much of the talk of the war. For all you who don't know much about it if you are as clueless about history as much as I was, or am actually, the American Civil War happened from 1861-1865 between the the United States of America (the "Union") and the Southern slave states of the newly-formed Confederate States of America. In short, between the people of the North and the South. The existence of a slave-owning South with an increasingly anti-slavery North made the coming of the war inevitable. It was the bloodiest war in America at the time. I got a bit lost in the book at one point for although I knew what was going on between the characters in the book, I was kind of confused between the slangs they used in the book to describe certain characters. So yeah, I actually learned abit of history from there :)

It is by far the longest fiction book I have ever read at 1010 pages. But it was worth it. Seriously, the characters are just so captivating.

Just so you don't get the wrong idea, the book does not conatain any sexual situations whatsoever. Those are more of romance novels. This book is categorized as more of a historical epic. I say this because a certain cousin of mine saw the cover and automatically considered it "porn" Doink. Anyway, its wayyyyy more mild than what you guys are reading these days :)

Saturday, November 24, 2007

Another year is almost over and I'm pondering endlessly again. Among other things :)

Sigh. Feels like I just left high school but that was a year ago. By this time next year, I think it'll sink in that I left my foundation year behind today :)

It was a greaaaat year amidst all the grumbles and rants. Different but great. I was feeling so sentimental after finals today cause I won't be seeing my friends again as often as I did in the past year.

I both love and loathe change.

I've got 3 months to kill.

Time to go college scouting again.

I think I might even get a job :0

Chirstmas is comingggggg :) Saw the chrismas trees in OneU today(although I must admit the decor wasn't very nice) and just felt a sense of peace and tranquility :)

Call me out for luncheons, dinners and movies ya'll!

Thursday, November 08, 2007

I know that I have been abandoning this blog. I think I run into writer's block more often than not and even I don't find it fun to read my own writings anymore. Sigh.

Plus, finals are in less than2 weeks and I haven't even wiped that thick layer of dust off my books yet. I am sooooooo screwed.

Recent happenings in my own class has had me worried sick. Honestly, it scared the shyte outta me. I would write about it here but I'll keep the suspense for later. After finals okay.

On a happier note, I'm going to watch Chicago the musical :) How I loveeeeee musicals.

Thanks for visiting my blog guys. Even if you don't stay for more than 5 seconds, I understand.

Resolution before the new year: CHANGE BLOG SKIN.

Off to study now. And Happy Deepavali to all my friends who celebrate it out there. Pointless to wish anyone here cause none of my freinds that celebrate Deepavali read my blog. But it's the thought that counts right?

I'm back

Friday, October 19, 2007

Yea I'm back from Bali. It was a fun trip and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Shopping especially :D

I'll update more later.

After I finish my mountain of assignments and tutorials. Test next week to study for :( Not too mention finals :( :( :( :( :(

Irritated right now. I know its not something you like to read so I'll stop here. I'm blaming it on partly on PMS. The other part is just his stupidity.

Baliiiiii :)

Saturday, October 13, 2007

Off to Bali tomorrow :)

Not too sure if I deserve it but after this shyte week, I really don't care anymore. I want to do some shopping. I've been starving myself of good bargains cause I keep reminding myself I have to save for Bali :D

And thanks for all the erm, comments about my pendrive that got stolen. Yup, he hasn't returned it. Nope, I doubt he ever will. And yes, I am still cursing him. Everyday. I hope he gets hit by a car :)

Just joking la. Fine. I hope he loses something improtant too then. Maybe his assignment that he has to hand in the next day :) Wahahahhaha. I like being mean sometimes.

Pictures when I get back :) IF I'm free/ not too lazy/ don't look horrible/ way too fat/ etc. etc.

Nothing can get worse.

Wednesday, October 10, 2007

It's been one heck of a shitty week so far. And it's barely been half a week.

Yes, I'm going to rant again. Yes, you may leave this page if you wish.

I don't get it. Does my luck just seem to change overnight or something? Fine fine. I've never had the best of luck like the kind of luck when you find money on the street or when you win a lottery or an expensive BMW. I don't have the kind of luck where I get to see hot guys everyday either. :D

But I don't experience such bad luck like this week has given me lar.

Jeez.

Case 1:

I almost lost my student ID. Yeah lar I know I'm careless. The irony is that I actually told myself that I was bound to lose it if I were to hold it that way. Haih. THEN I actually lost it. As I was searching for it in my locker, bag, between books and papers, I was cursing myself sooo bad. Thank goodness this guy found it and handed it back to me just as I was about to go looking for it outside the library. Kind soul.

Case 2:

Dahlah almost lost my ID. This HAD to happen on the same day. Was doing my research paper using the comp in the library with a friend. Then I left the library cause I had to see a teacher. 10 minutes later I came back and discovered my pendrive was missing. Asked my friend and she said she didn't notice someone took it. She went to the printer to print out something at that time. I suspected the guy using the computer next to me took it by MISTAKE. I checked his computer and found HIS pendrive still there. We opened his pendrive but there weren't any pictures of him. All we knew was the guy used a name 'VIPER'. I couldnt' remember how the guy looked like. Obviously. So we just waited there hoping the guy would come back with my pendrive. Guess what?..............He DID. He came looking for it. Then he said he was sorry that he took mine. So you would expect him to return mine, right? Idiot. He didn't. He said he was rushing cause he had a presentation and that he would call me to return it later. He took my number but I didn't take his. He hasn't called since. Yes. I am stupid for not getting his name. All I know is he is probably an ADP student, studying psycho or biology and he is indian or mix race la or maybe an international student. Couldn't really tell. That jerk. Does it take so much time to call? ALL my research is in that pendrive damnit!! I seriously feel like punching him now. All I can do now is pray he'll return it. He couldn't be so cheap until he will resolve to stealing it right? It's not even worth 50 bucks la that pendrive. GGGGRRRRRRR.

Case 3:

Got back my mid term papers and feel like the stupidest moron in the world. Every paper had careless mistakes. EVERY PAPER. Well, except english since I don't get to see my paper. But I bet I made careless mistakes anyway. Life is so sucky right now.

Case 4:

Computer in the lab hanged on me just as I was going to save something. The data wasn't VERY important but still...

Nothing can get worse.

Nothing to say. Sort of.

Sunday, October 07, 2007

Gee. I don't know what's wrong with me. I thought I passed that stage but heck, I'm right back at square one.

And it doesn't feel good. Ok fine. It sucks so bad.

Sometimes I don't know why I need to experience failure before I start working my ass off. Or try to work again.

It's like I never learn. I promise never to repeat the same thing but here I am again. No excuse this time. Back then I guess I wasn't so bright. I made a mistake and it sucked when I got the results.

YES, I am soooo much brighter now. On certain aspects in life :)

But here I am. Talking in riddles. Pondering on the stupidity I'm not proud of possessing at this time in my life.

Why don't I ever learn :( :( :(

Like always

Friday, September 28, 2007

Taking a short break from blogging. Actually didn't want to keep the blog already since blogger screwed up my template but someone said I should keep it to vent or rant. Or something like that. Things I'm good at.

Gah.

So fun giving people stuff and seeing their face light up :)

Btw, Cheeps got that last question right. Bout the money?A little late but you forgot bout it already anyway. Don't lie. You totally forgot bout it :)

I plan to be a philanthropist. That is WHEN I get tons of moolah $$$. Then of course I'll get involved in some huge non profit charity organisation. Aids, Women's Rights, poverty, etc. etc.

So when I say I wanna be rich I'm not only thinking of myself ok.

Thanks for dropping by. I guess I will update as and when I feel like it. With the second half of sem 3 coming up, I think I'll have no problem finding things to rant about again.

Typical :(

I need some doses of hairspray.

Friday, September 21, 2007

Trust me. It's goooooooooooooooooooooooooood AWESOME.

I can't WAIT to watch it again. AFTER mid terms. Sigggggggghhh.

If only lessons were this interesting :)

Mum says I turn into a kid everytime I listen to the soundtrack. Which is true. Can't help it la. It just makes me wanna dance everytime I listen to the songs!

Now mum says she knows what to do when that time of the month comes :). She says she'll blast the soundtrack more when I get PMS. Cause I have really bad PMS lor. :( :(

Number 1 :)

Saturday, September 15, 2007

Does anyone wanna watch Hairspray!!? Dying here la since nobody wants to watch with me :(

Ok ok.

I see no one wants to comment on my posts already. That bad huh? Sighhh.

Right.

I've been thinking lately.

I'm going to change the world one day. Seriously.

I'm going to be rich one day. I'll bust my ass to make it. I'll be a CEO of some big, HUGE , GIGANDO company. Ok la. Stop laughing already. Maybe I won't be a CEO. Just be rich enough lor.

What are you thinking now?

What I'll do with the money?

Many, many things. But one thing takes priority and it has been number one on my list for some time now.

Guess!!

Never in a million years will you guess it right :)

Leave a comment on what you think I'll do with the money and I'll give you my answer later :) :)

Aiyiayia

Wednesday, September 12, 2007

I think I'm losing the urge to blog.

GASP!

All of a sudden, it just seems soooo..... trifle. Sort of.

Or maybe it's just due to my insanely uneventful life :( :(

I would soooo love to rant about people getting on my nerves right now but heck, you're probably bored reading about all those rants already. But seriously, I feel like slapping someone now. Even if it's 12am. And I'm sleepy.

Ok ok. Till I find something inspiring.. I got nothing.

English proposal tomorrow. Yup, I haven't finished it. Slap me somebody.

Leave me alone

Thursday, September 06, 2007

Inflation's a brat.

English assignment is a huge brat.

Accounts test is a brat.

Moral is a gigantic brat.

I haven't gotten my new blog skin yet. Cause blardy blogger has some issues. So blogger's a brat.

Did I mention? I loathe brats.

Testing only lar

Saturday, September 01, 2007

This layout is just a test template. I like it.

Give me your HONEST feedback!!

Don't ask me why I chose a vintage/classic layout ok.

Here's the answer: I like vintage :)

Even if you don't like it, I will probably get ANOTHER vintage layout. OOhhh, classy to me.

Back to Econs and Accounts :( :(

Don't bug me to update. Tests are next week and I'm irritated enough as it is with blogger.

GGGRRRR!

Pissed off with blogger la.
Bear with me please.
I WILL do something about my layout.
Just not free at the moment.
I LOVED my layout.
*tears hair out*

Independence yo

Friday, August 31, 2007

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 :)

Rantings and Joys

Saturday, August 25, 2007

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.

He got 3rd place btw in the solo category. First place went to some Indon girl who sang a considerably good rendition of Alicia Keys's 'If I Ain't Got You'. Honestly, out of the everyone who joined the competition, only about 6 people could actually sing. The rest sucked real bad. I mean really bad. Not joking. One girl even laughed on stage and there were some debatable gender issues. Bad entertainment is entertainment nonetheless. Bur I'll give them props for having the guts to go on stage. Even if they did embarrass themselves.

The only downside of the night were the two most annoying emcees that hosted the contest (Next to the bad singing). I thought I was bad cause I constantly ranted bout how idiotic they acted on stage but hey, I have great friends who complained along with me. Such fun when there's someone who agrees with you :D Don't judge me. You would hate them too if you saw them.

When bored, camwhore.

My ranting buddy :D Love her craziness.

I am such a sad case. I have to update pictures later after I get the rest of the pics from my friend :( :(

Blardy Blogger is giving me a headache. It screwed up my template. My page looks like shyte now. I have no idea what to do about it. Somebody save me. HOW do I get back my layout??!!

*Looking pissed*

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

* Breathe in, breathe out *

STILL feel like punching something.

*Positive thinking, positive thinking, positive thinking, positi....*

Not working.

Brighter side of things in my life?

I GOT MY SUNNIES!! And I thought they were out of my reach for a some time. But God is so goooood to me.

Ah, love is in the air.

Btw, I've suddenly taken a huge interest in classic novels. Feel like smacking myself for giving away those books now. Wuthering Heights was great. Reading Pride and Prejudice now. Give it a try people. You might like it. If you don't, it's your lost.

The Inevitable

Monday, August 20, 2007

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. :( :(

Ever After

Saturday, August 18, 2007

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.

Yearning for them shades.

I. WANT. THOSE. SHADES.

I. NEEEEED. THEM.

SHOWER. ME. WITH. MONEY. PLEASE.

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 :)

One goes and another comes.

Monday, August 06, 2007

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 :)

Okay. So that's 7 pictures. 7 x 1000 = 7000 (approx) Beat that.

Lame, I know. But I have PMS now so no wise cracks please.
Its been a good week. Just when I was getting into the hang of the hols, reality steps in to give me a slap. You guessed it. College starts tomorrow. But heck, I'm going to enjoy another week.

Btw, I didn't really enjoy Simpsons. I hope it wasn't all the hype that made me expect more cause everyone came out saying it was so funny. I hope it's also due to the fact that I never like Simpsons in the first place. The movie just wasn't really funny and it was weird at parts. Shoot me if you want. And I really despise it when people start laughing loudly in the cinema at scenes that aren't even funny. Like some retard. Ugh. It's times like these when I wish I had laser vision so that I can just zap those people into a crisp with a single look and not get out of my chair.

Update

Thursday, August 02, 2007

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.

Today not yesterday

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

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?

*

My face feels like sandpaper. Or dried up parchment. UGHHHH. I hate it when I get allergic to good food.

I almost lost my phone today. Thank god I found it before I left the cinema. Stupid me. I knew it would fall out if I left it there.

*

Waited a whole blardy hour to get into the haunted house today at the carnival. For a mere 5 minutes of screaming and laughing. Tell me again why I did it, pleease!!. See, I'm a chicken and I'm not ashamed of that. I laughed most of the time though. Hilarious because I was looking at my friends. Then one 'ghost' touched my shoulder and I moved away and hurt my neck. I hate it when they touch me.

To be tortured voluntarily, I suffered physical injury :(

But I had a good time. Met some old friends and it felt great to know I haven't been forgotten :D

Didn't feel up to camwhoring though cause of my blotchy face :( :( :(

Bored and tagged. Please don't kill me.

Monday, July 30, 2007

Since I have NOTHING to say at the mo..

This holiday, I'm going to sit back, ponder on the meaning of life, figure out my life's journey, and see where I'll be 20 years from now. eat, sleep and grow fatter.

Ridiculous..

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.

Don't judge me. Its my choice. Deal with it.

Friday, July 20, 2007

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 :)

It's entertainment I tell you.

Thursday, July 19, 2007

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.

Finally.

Wednesday, July 18, 2007

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.

A new awakening.

Thursday, July 12, 2007

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.

I feel it in my bones. The fear...

Monday, July 09, 2007

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..

Pisces
You have quite a soft spot for art -- in all its forms -- today. Explore new music.

Rigggghhhht. I like art. Too bad I can't draw to save my life. Doodling on lecture notes doesn't count. Hmm. What other forms? As in dancing and singing? Heck, I like to see those ALL the time. Not just today. Explore new music. Yeah, I explored music for my powerpoint presentation. That was fun.

*

Currently addicted to this Malay song by Samsons- Kenangan Terindah.
I don't care what you say, its a good song.

BCP and missing you guys

Saturday, July 07, 2007

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 :)

Another hate.

Tuesday, July 03, 2007

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.

Aih.

Monday, July 02, 2007

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.

Update. Not.

Friday, June 29, 2007

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.

I'm wiser now.

"The stupid neither forgive nor forget;

the naïve forgive and forget;

the wise forgive but do not forget."

-Thomas Szasz

Which category do you belong to?

I used to live on the saying 'forgive and forget'.

But life is hard and sometimes, not very pretty.

Forgiving someone for wrong doing you doesn't mean forgetting that they have hurt you once.

You learn from there.

Lessons learned should never be forgotten

Ever.

Now I forgive but do not forget.

See, once I'm bitten, I don't turn shy.

I learn what not to do and in turn, become smarter.

Once bitten, I'm twice smart.

I'm growing wiser.

Rants

The Paradox Of Our Time

Wednesday, June 20, 2007

The paradox of our time in history is that
we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways but narrower viewpoints.
We spend more, but have less. We buy more, but enjoy it less.
We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment;
more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little,
drive too fast, get too angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired,
read too seldom, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life.
We’ve added years to life, not life to years.
We’ve been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor.

We’ve conquered outer space, but not inner space.
We’ve done larger things, but not better things.
We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We’ve split the atom, but not our prejudice.
We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait.
We plan more, but accomplish less.
We write more, but learn less.
We build more computers
to hold more information
to produce more copies than ever,
but have less communication.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion;
tall men, and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships.
These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare;
more leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition.
These are days of two incomes, but more divorce;
of fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw-away morality,
one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do
everything from cheer to quiet, to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the show window
and nothing in the stockroom;
a time when technology can bring this letter to you,
and a time when you can choose either to share this insight,
or to just hit delete.

-George Carlin-

We're all guilty of one part, if not all that is mentioned in the poem. Don't even try to deny it.
Our world is so different now. Maybe it's not such a wonderful place after all. Sigh.
Show me a miracle and give me sanity.
Walk with me and tell me it's just the way life is.

But if you are gonna tell me that's the way life is, then tell me exactly what that way is.
