Sincerity

Salam Alaikum Wr Wb.

Back home at last after spending the whole afternoon/evening/night out. Afternoon's 'meeting' was great, a good time for me to wind down. Thank you awak. I've never dated anyone who is as sincere as you. I felt that my presence was really being appreciated. Even waited for my evening NPCC meeting to end to send me home. A guy can just bring you out and pay for your stuffs, but how truly sincere are they? I think you really are. You are sweet too. =)

National Treasures was great. Just like its prequel, the movie is packed with humour (the Rilley guy, I have to admit, is kinda cute) and ofcourse adventure. I like puzzle-based movies such as this and Da Vinci Code. If only its an interactive movie which we have to attempt the puzzles ourselves in order for the next scene to occur (the subsequent scenes will vary according to how we solve the puzzles). Adik is watching Bring It On, and I can't sleep. Will be getting my own room real soon. This time it's for real. Can't wait. But I will miss the bickerings my sister and I have over who gets to use the room. I will enjoy every (of these last) moments of arguments with her before I completely move out.

NPCC is on the roll once again. New year means new beginning (remember nuovo inizio?) and I feel that I'm all excited for the upcoming year. I will be heading the Bukit Timah Hike in July and I'm already all tingling-excited. I feel that I want to get involved but there are just some restrictions (including the tudung) which makes me turn away from NPCC. Ultimately its my choice. If it is my interest, I should just pursue further. But one thing is for sure: I WILL NOT GO FOR THE HOBTC next year, not ever. This is my promise, just like I've promised I'll never get myself a pair of Levi's, although I already have 2 pairs at home (the irony). Okay. So what's going to happen between NPCC and myself in 2008? God knows. And only time will tell.

Alright, I'm sleepy. I didn't really get to sleep properly yesterday(not because I was overexcited over the date. REALLY). Need sleep real badly.

Salam Alaikum Wr Wb. Have a great weekend ahead =)

Paint My World - Pollen Yellow!

Salam Alaikum to one and all.

How's your holidays? I know I'm having too many things to do, coupled with the sudden 'yok gi jalans' bapak surprises us with. This afternoon, I got paint for my room. It's yellow, with a tinge of orange. Looks interesting. Macam colour honey although the shade is called 'pollen'. Why yellow? Haha. Purple doesn't go with the wood furniture I have and the shades of green the guy had in his shop was too pale (TPJC green? NO WAY! Lime green please =)). I settled for the yellow. I want my room to look sweet and nice like honey. =)

I will get my room painted real soon. When? I have no idea. Meeting tomorrow and most probably on Friday too. Haiz. Saturday nope. Sunday might be going to Escape with DiRaUlLuHaRe. But it seems like everyone's busy. Haiz. And I'm not. Haha. Ouh. Another meeting on Monday with the Saff peeps, which clashes with my NCOs AGM. Oh dear. Both are equally important to me. And they both start at 10 am. Ouh dear. Still waiting for Ju's response if he can change the meeting to another day.

KL trip was great. Everyone fell sick thanks to Abang. Bapak was ecstatic to see Mat Rempits do the wheely in front of him. Adik, Abang and Kak Jiji went hysterical at Petaling Street, whereas I was choking and on the verge of collapsing thanks to the smoke from the vendors' cigarettes which further worsened my already sore throat. Macam nak mati la. And NEVER eat the Coney Dog at the A & W in Jalan Masjid India. It sucks. Really. Basically we gorged food that are not or rarely halal in Singapore such as Portuguese tarts, Auntie Anne's Pretzel dogs and Lecka Lecka deli-yummy nockies gelato! I'm all about food babe! Haha. Food and shopping is my life. I'm trying to make studying a part of it too. But it's not happening. Got myself books to read. I think books are the only stuffs worth buying there, apart from food. =)

Hmm. Dambaan Cinta is being played on the radio. Nice song. The guy is now in China holiday-ing with his family. And his Dad is all alone in Singapore. So much so my dad had to bring him out to bowl this morning. I couldn't follow because it was all guys. What kind of an excuse is that?? I miss bowling. Totally.

Results released today. AlhamduliLlah. But I can't be too sure if I should be too happy or too sad. But being the kiasu person I am, of course whatever I get will never be enough =). But InsyaAllah I will work harder. That's a promise.

Doing my overseas trip stuffs. AlhamduliLlah things are going smoothly. InsyaAllah this event will happen and will be a success. Can't wait. Can't wait!!

That's it for now. I feel like watching Hindi movies. Starring I don't know who. Haha.


Salam Alaikum Wr Wb.

Knock Knock Knock! NEA!

Salam Alaikum Wr Wb.

Guess what, Mak just got warned by an NEA officer for indirectly breeding mosquitoes through the potted plants we were growing along our corridor.

We didn't want to open the door initially (neither Bapak nor Abang was at home, just us girls) so much so the guy had to shout like an Ah Long before Mak actually opened the door. Haha. I think everyone would be intimidated if an Ah Long-like knock comes a-knockin' on their doors. Sheesh. While I was in my telekong, I let Mak open the door. (Haha, nama aje dalam NPCC).

So ya, one of the pots were collecting water. No wonder we can experience mosquitoes even on the 12th floor!! See laa ... Who's fault is it huh? Heheh. No la, it's our fault. =)

I love MOZZIES ... =) NOT!

Okay. I have no idea why I've typed this post. Perhaps I'm just bored from editing minutes to this afternoon's MS EXCO meeting. Getting cock-eyed from staring at the monitor for too long ...


Salam alaikum ...

What The Heck Am I Doing?

Salam Alaikum.

I know I'm suppose to design my own bloggie but I can hardly find the time to do so. Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing with my life during this holidays. Wasting it away? Perhaps ...

Heading to Golden Mile Centre tomorrow to get myself a pair of Birkenstock. I've decided not to get Papillio (since there is a cheaper yet original alternative). Got my pair of Alice Crocs. I'm happy with it. Still waiting for Bapak to change my 2-1/2 years old handphone. Hoping for a Nokia N95 =). It's kind of expensive I know, but I've not asked money from him for a very long time so I think it's kind of justified if I get myself a slightly more expensive phone. No? Whatever it is, I have to be patient. Not sure when i can get it tho'. =(

Piling on weights, as usual. Just had a buffet lunch at Downtown East. Didn't eat as much as I ususally would. The last thing I had was Beef Teppanyaki. Then headed to Mak Jai's house only to find myself couch-potatoeing. Watched thus Hindi movie Om somthing Om. Haha. Shah Rukh Khan. I kinda enjoyed it really. It was a fusion of comedy, romance, action as well as DANCE (very obvious ain't it?) making the movie very unique. Borrowed from her two other Hindi movie DVDs. Haha. Sarah's becoming a fanatic now ... (So unbecoming of me) And borrowed from Kak Jiji the DVD Wujud. It features 10 spots in Singapore which features all these supernatural stuffs. I will watch it tomorrow morning =) (Not that I'm afraid or anything ... Heheh)

Apart from that, I feel very occupied thanks to the NUMS project =). Atleast I'm optimising my free time.

That's all I can recall fo now. Hehh. Short-term laaa ...


Nights all. Love y'all.


Salam Alaikum (Peace Be Upon You) peeps! =)

Post-Exams Activities ...

Salam Alaikum Wr Wb.

How's everyone been? My last paper ended last Monday. Went to book our chalet through the AXS machine. It will be from 7 to 9th January. Girls night out.

Talking about chalet, I'm suppose to be at Downtown East today. For the Secondary 2's barbecue-cum-chalet. But the BBQ was cancelled due to the heavy rain. Thank goodness! I just had the biggest Whopper in my entire life. For the first time ever, I had the whole burger to myself. Hmm. Mak had a bite of it. But I still ate quite alot!!

Just came back from EXPO's John Little Sale. Should have called it Esprit sale. Cos I bought nothing else but Esprit's apparels. Nothing else was that appealing. Even the lingeries were quite expensive. It used to be half the price they are selling now. That was earlier this year. I don't think the GST hike can raise the price of a bra to such extent. Urgh. Even a basic necessity is so expensive to own. And I'm not referring to Sloggis and 'above'.

Splurged on t-shirts, the kind which won't wrinkle so easily so that I can bring those to KL without having to worry of crumpling them. I really should go the the Esprit Outlet at IMM. I must .... MUST! The other thing I've been wanting to buy is a pair of the Alice Crocs. Its so sweet! I just hope that the normal range is sold in Singapore too. I don't quite like the idea of wearing a suede croc shoes. Don't ask me why. And let's keep our fingers crossed that the shoes are not more than 60 buckaroos. The Suede Alice costs $65.

There's just so much to do this holidays. It's only one month yet I have too many things inside my head. The most important thing to do is to get my room ready before school reopens. There's still no door. And everything is only a plan. Not even sure if they are going to happen. Haizz. Janji Melayu ...

Was relaxing by the poolside with the Makcik Penguins (they called themselves that) and was serving their kids food. Most of them were boys. I felt like I was their mother. So the makiciks started to call me dayang. Cos I was tending to the kids and taking care of the place while they were leisurely swimming in the pool, sauna-ed and jacuzzi-ed. I should have just brought my swimwear (not that I have any) and sit in the jacuzzi the whole day. And also burn a pound of fats or two in the sauna. Oh well. At least I had a great time reading my book and do some of the project proposals for the project I will be undertaking next year. Potluck session with them next Thursday followed by a movie. Cool right. I never thought makciks nowadays will be that modern and cool.

And guess what? I'll be tutoring their kids and in return, they will teach me how to make all the yummy blueberry cheesetarts, tantalising brownies and pesto sauce! Ooooh lalaaaaa ....

WIth all these happy moments, you might be asking how was my exams. Haha. I don't intend to talk about my exams. I'm just hoping that I won't have to retake any module. Especially Molecular Gen. Looking forward! Not letting my past stop me from moving on. Optimism is key to success.

Alright. That's it for now. Need to go to the kitchen. And bathe. Was freezing from the rain laaaa. It was super bad. Even my whopper turned cold by the time I reached home, and its not due to the cold barley drink.

Whatever it is, I wish everyone Happy Holidays. Hope that your holiday will be a fruitful one. Cheers! =)

Salam alaik wr wb. Peace!
