{March 24, 2009}   Random Rantings!

  Well, here’s a post for me to just rant. First of all, I’m broke and I hate this. I need cash! I need to just laze around at home but I can’t coz I’ve gotta work on my semester break. Hmm. Tropper is being a pain, he keeps giving me hell. The weather is too hot….I keep feeling that I’m in a furnace in my own room. I need something exciting in life…something new, something fun. It’s all currently a routine…and I’m not liking it. I get tired of things pretty fast..so this is the phase. I need a VACATION!!! I know I keep saying this..but I desperately need one. Like real soon. Before I loose my mind..or what’s left of it. Things at home aren’t so well either..same old drama…so ya. Hope all goes well.

  Ok, there goes my rantings. Yeah, I know, Its a lame post…but I just needed to let some feelings go.



{March 23, 2009}   Updates!

  After not blogging for a bit, I think it’s time to start with some updates….but then again, there’s nothing much!

  Dezzo is in JAKARTA!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo…so close yet so far, but definitely better than her being in Canada, spoke to her a couple of days ago, and she’s doing great. I’m really stoked for her! She took on the challenge and she’s doing so well, proud of my Crazyface! I keep thinking about Bandung and our Twisties nites…hopefully, we’ll get to have it soon.

  Things are good generally, and one person somewhere put there is just continously making me laugh with all the stupidity and immaturity…lol. The family is good, It was nice to chill by the pool the other day, Only Charissa was missing…coz that child happily went to Bali. I’m glad I managed to get close to Shana, such a great girl and Love her so much.  I’m enjoying the hols, dont wanna go back to Uni….*sigh*.

  Trooper is being a pain, been giving me probs for the past few weeks. So hopefully he’ll get better. I’m still looking forward for my vacation….cant wait for it..hope all goes well.

  Well, thats all I guess, for my broing updates. Hopefully, something exciting happens so that I can blog about it. :)



{March 9, 2009}   A dog and ME

  I watched Marley & Me today, watched it with Auggy, Sam, Martin and Charissa. I walked out of the cinema with very red,puffy eyes and a very wet jacket. And yes, I love dogs. So much! The movie was really good, I actually thought it was gonna be a really hillarious comedy about a very cute dog..well, it was..but it ended with a whole lot of tears.

  I did’t just cry…I wept…I seriously wept. They all saw it…and I dont think I’ll hear the end of this. Damn! After the movie, we all headed to Pet World…to look at the dogs. There were four gorgoues ones there, two Siberian husky, a golden ret ( I love this) and a Bull terrier. They were so cute k..we stood there for a good half an hour, playing with them and just staring and admiring them. I WANT a DOG!!! Those who are close to me know how much I love dogs..and how much I’ve always wanted a dog. This time I mean it.. I want a dog! My mum is the only one stopping me from getting one. She thinks its a lot of work and that the area we live in is not safe to keep a dog.

  I’m thinking of adopting a dog. On our way back form Seremban the other, we stopped by at a shop and saw a toy poddle. He was adorable! I think I’m gonna get a smaller dog, I might start looking for one this weekend! Might go down to SPCA or something. The movie made me realize how much I adore dogs, and that I must do something about it. I’ve always wanted a dog…this time, I’m gonna try to really get one! Wish me luck ppl…coz I think I see a whole lot of Drama with a capital D in this household…(all for a dog!)



{March 7, 2009}   Movie Reviews

  Well, I decided to do a movie review of the three movies that I watched recently. And apparently, it was three good movies, so here goes. For those who didn’t watch them yet..make sure you do so.

  The first one that I watched with Becca, Auggy and Edward was ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. Ok, whatever that you heard about the movie is so true. ( the good ones, I mean). The whole essence of the life in the slum was beautifully captured and there’s also some icky moments when you feel blest to life the life that your living. I felt the director did a good job in potraying the culture, lifestyle and colours of India. The soundtrack was also awesome. If u guys didnt know yet, I totally adore M.I.A. The first song, that she worked with A.R Rahman was a work of art,literally. With the beats and the sound of the train…nice! I didnt quite like the ending of movie though, the part when it got too bollywood…heheheh. Jai Ho!

  The second movie….that actually left me in a whole lot of tears and got me doing some pretty deep thinking about life is ‘7 pounds’. This is one good movie where you can actually sit and cry to and also contemplate on it. I watched it with Auggy, Shana, Becca, Charissa, Sam and Martin. I absolutely adore Will Smith, the guy is hawt..and damn he has an extraordinary way of bringing his character into a whole different level. It’s a story about a man that really makes a difference in other people’s lives. Being the season of lent (fuyoo…), it actually made me realize that one can do a lot more and change people’s life. Though I may not to big things like the character, I thought of littel ways that I could. I like movies that actually make you think and analyze your life as whole. Great movie,worth every penny! Though some of the above mentioned people acted all macho and made it seems that only me and Becca cried, well, listen, I know you all teared except Martin …….and sadly, Charissa…lol. Hehehe, one of YOU actually confessed to me… :)

  Finally, another funky movie with a whole new twist is ‘Watchmen’. And no people, if you’re thinking that its a movie about superheroes….well, you’re so so wrong. It’s a whole new twist to it. It starts off with a murder and ends with more. I actually had to get Sam to explain the movie to me again…coz a person like me, who is very much into Spidey and Superman saving the day and the world is a happy place…..could not accept the fact that sometimes it is totally different and more things needs to be done to save the world. U don’t get me??? Just go watch the movie. Through out the movie, my jaw kept dropping. Like really ok? I kept getting fascinated by every scene, the action, the thrill, the sounds, the scenes(heheheheh) and the whole..TWIST! So, this is a must watch movie..superb if watched in the theathre…It just NEEDS the effect! Oh, btw, I watched this movie with Sam and Martin.  Seriously, dont miss it! I heard that the novel was even better (or so Sam thinks).

  Movies that I’m looking forward to is:

  • Marley & Me ( which Becca promised to watch with me but happily watched it w/o me…so I think I’ll just go on my own)
  • Hotel For dogs
  • Star Trek (only because ‘Sylar’ from Heroes is in it)
  • The curious case on Benjamin Button
  • Transformers II
  • Street Fighter (umm..maybe..Im curious to know watch it)
  • Pirates of the Caribbean 4 (tho its oni coming out maybe in 2012..heheh..and yes..its starring Johnny Depp…and not Zac Efron..phew!!!)
  • aaaannnndd..im sure a lot more…but cant think of it rite now..and Im sleepy.

  So, movie review all done…Cant wait to watch Marley & Me with Shana.  :p

*Notice that he actually typed the date, day and time* lmao.

:)



  The 1st of March, a day which added more spice to life. I started the day in Klang, at the Overnight vigil. Which was………..hmmm….fine la. But then, it did me good, coz I felt a lot better after praying. And also I had fun people-watching, just had fun watching certain people wear mask and cover up. lol.

  We left early with the permission of Father, and went for mass in Auggy’s church…well, he and Shana did..Me,becca and Nick slept in d car…I was dead tired and needed to sleep. at least for abit. After that, we headed to some shop for breakfast (while Nick slept in d car…sigh), and then after a whole lot of stops…we decided to send Shana home. I couldnt drive..so Auggy took over. Then, like heaven came down,..Auggy came up with an idea that blew me away, big time. Guess what?

  He decided to take the SMART tunnel to drop Shana off….OMG!!  I was like a 5 year old in a candy store. The moment we hit the tunnel, I put my head out the window, and was enjoying the sight,sound and the air on my face! It was to die for..even now as I type this, I can feel the adrenaline rush. *sigh*..once again, I shall add, that tunnels are men’s greatest creation!!!

  After dropping Shana off, it was me that came up with another splendid idea. I wanted to visit Aaron, my angle. So, we stopped by the gas station, got some ice-cream to cool us off from the heat, and headed to where he rested. It was good to be back there, coz his family had made a real nice tomb stone. It was very nice. We spent 40 minutes, talking to him…filling him up wt details and just remembering him. It was beautiful! When it comes to Aaron, I’m just in a world of my own, I dont think I can ever explain to anyone how much I love, miss and cherish him. The angel of smiles.

  We then drove back, while I lay down on the backseat watching the clouds…and the sky. Hehehe, yes, yes, it was really fun! AFter dropping becca, me n Auggy drove to his place..there we drove around for abit and talked. There was a lot to talk. As usual, I share everything with Auggy and it was nice to just lepak and talk. These are the moments I love! I drove back that day feeling really contented and loved. It was good coz later that evening, I had dinner with Mum. It has been 3 weeks since we spoke…so the dinner was great. Very fruitful..as I told her whatever that has been happening in life…all the drama and stories..and she filled me in too. 

*1st of march, a good start to a month of holidays*
