Dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never get hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, Live like it's heaven on earth, And speak from the heart to be heard. ~ William W. Purkey

Here I am, smelling of garlic and onions and trying to win this Nike contest online and I am NOT doing well. Hard to play. Uwaaaaah.. I want the sneakers!!!

Useless info of the day: Did you know that Bill Bowerman was the inventor of Nike? He used to make shoe soles using his wife's waffle maker. Imagine the chemical smell in the waffles.. bluergh :P

To Eisu: Weird? We are all so weird you wouldn't believe it. ^_^

To Saw: How's Penang? Enjoying home life finally? :D

To Alex: For a 12 year old, you are just too WEIRD. Hehe.

Aaaah... a whole day doing nothing really. Seems like a long time since I had a chance to do so. Nothing much happened today. Had dim sum breakfast with a friend, said good bye to friend and went home. I then watched a movie on vcd about Steve Prefontine [US Olympic runner 1972] that was quite tragic. Slept, ate drank water and didn't even go online til now.. late at night :)
Anyways, the bad news of the week would be that my handphone is busted- I dropped it and now I can't hear anything although I my calls still get through. Sad, oh its so sad. Now I'm stuck with a keyboard sorta handphone that is really hard to use. Ah well. Clumsy me to have dropped my phone in the first place :P

Oh yea.. happy puasa-ing to my friends and happy hols! I'm going to.... waste more time staring aimlessly into space now. Cyaa!

ps: Moi redid the Potter test cause I missed the priority thingy... so... I am now officially Harry Potter from the Ravenclaw clan! Ho ho ho ^_^

When joining a ballet class after 3 years of absence, please take these percautions:

1. Warm up all ye muscles before entering the class [for a full 2 hour session]. One will suddenly realise that your calf muscles DO exist.
2. Go to the toilet before class starts. Taking off all attire takes too much time and also to prevent any unwanted accidents. O_o
3. Tie all ye hair securely [if you are a girl or a guy with long hair :P] No one wants to injure another classmate with flying hairpins.
4. Plaster all ye toes. Standing on tippy-toes is one thing- standing on tippy toes with bleeding blisters aint fun at all.

And most important of all..........

5. Set up a mental block against guys in tights. Enuff said.

Sis : Wow! Who's new pair of sneakers are these? It's huge!

Friend: It's bigger than my feet!

[I come walking out of the kitchen]

Me : It's Hoong's (my bro) and its size 13 US.

Sis and friend: WOW! Are you sure??

[yelling to my bro]

Sis : Are you sure this is your size? It's gigantic!

[laughter from all around]
[staring at sneakers and laughing some more]

Bro : Yes... (in irritated tone) ..... it's mine.

Sis : Are you very sure?

Bro : YES!! ONE SIZE FITS ALL.

X-D

One more day, one more day, one more day......... >.<"

This is a good time as any for me to get fat. Here I am sitting on my butt, typing away, munching on chocolate and drinking 7-Up all day. Whoopee! I almost rhyme!

ps: Watched Harry Potter last night. Very seamless. I like. Read Saw's blog for more info on the world of idiots sitting next to you in the cinema.

Friday, November 23, 2001

No one seems to be updating their blogs. I'm bored. Sigh.

Wednesday, November 21, 2001

Aunts can be so... menyusahkan sometimes. Wargh!!

Important notice: M.I done. S.R.I to go. Very soon I jadi K.O. @_o

Monday, November 19, 2001

Oh yea, congrats to Aimo, Laine and Eisu for the job well done! Looks like the sleepless nights were worth it eh? :)

To Booya: I saw a Chunky Monkey! :P

Excerpt from Return of the King [Book 3 of Lord of the Rings]

"Hullo!", said Pippin, poking his head round the curtain. "I thought you had forgotten all about me. I'm glad to see you back. It has been a long day."

"But the night will be too short," said Gandalf. "I have come back here, for I must have a little peace, alone. You should sleep, in a bed while you may. At the sunrise I shall take you to the Lord Denethor again. No, when the summons come, not at sunrise. The Darkness has begun. There will be no dawn."

Whoah!! Powerrr.... XP

Saturday, November 17, 2001

I have been enlightened... :P~~

Today I realised something quite interesting. You know how people always say that privacy is good, being alone sometimes in nice, but I just don't like it. I think I am actually suffering from "being alone too much" syndrome. Ok, most of my family have gone to Shanghai [except my dad] and are due back in 3 days time. The thing is, I was thinking that it'll be a good time for me to concentrate on my work and not be bothered by other things like 'mum screaming at brother' and 'sister screaming at the dog' and.. well, you get the idea but in the end, it has made me just sad.

I just find it too damn quiet! For me to sit and do my work [sketching, which isnt at all interesting to do all day] is SO boring. I turn on the radio, the tv and STILL its too quiet. And I don't go out much cos I tell myself that I have to do work, but alot of times, I think, "Hey, I got alot of time, I'll do it later" and then suddenly realise that little has actually been done. Sheesh. I'm confused. And I definitely dont like the fact that I have to be in the house alone for most of the day. If only I could bring the dog into the house. Ah well. Tidak apa. I'll survive.

Little Kotak makes herself her favourite cup of milo and sits down to read Lord of the Rings.

I feel better now. Thanks for reading. :D Muaks to everyone and especially to you-know-who. @};-

Onwards march to freedom..! "No more SRI.. no more SRI.. no more dissertation.. no more dissertation.. no more crappy lecturers.. "

Think I gave Saw and Booya a scare today while driving my aunt's car today to lunch. Something about driving someone else's car gives me a weird thrill. Maybe cos it has faster pickup, [she doesn't drive it much] though its only a manual Proton Wira 1.3... Well, beggars can't be choosers- as long as it moves, I'll drive it! Woohoo!

Beware! EmptyBox is on the road!

Anyways, I was watching X files with my dad just now and it kinda gave me the creeps [compared to the millions of alien episodes which are now just getting on my nerves]. It was something about an Indian fakir [some wiseman] who wanted to kill some people in America because his buddies or family got killed in some accident. The thing is, he could change himself to look like anyone, when he was really this man with no legs who moved about on a squeaky piece of wood with wheels. Talk about not being able to trust your own eyes. Eee! ^^;;;

Twilight Zone theme song plays.

Having a headache now. Bluergh. Must be the heat. Anyway, anyone knows why I get hungry fast [like an hour after meals] eventhough I've had alot to eat? Weirdness I tell you! O_o And people say I don't eat enough. Rubbish!! :P Anyway, it's time to go. Wasn't planning to write a blog this long. Heheh. Good night!

Bunny slippers goes squeek squeek.

" Kotak: Aiyoh, sorry to read about ye swollen eye...hmm, have you been doin' something we don't know about? >:D Like browsing through the HOT MEN section of the internet?
*Aimo runs before she gets pelted with metal pellets* "


RUN AIMO RUN!!
I think it would be more likely for YOU to be browsing thru the HOT HOT MEN section rather than moi! >:D Muahahaha!

ps: Leaving us at such a critical point in Fate & Destiny? How could you?! XP
==================================================================================

To all, My eyeBALL is better. Thanks for the words of comfort *eh hem* :) Think there was something lodged in my eye somewhere. Dem zis dust particlez!

Monday, November 12, 2001

Ooookayy... I don't want to gross anyone out or anything but my eyeball... yes, my right EYEBALL IS SWOLLEN!! It's now pinkish and gets irritated when I blink. Can't even move my eyeball without feeling this swollen-ness. *whimper*

=_o <--- me with swollen eyeball

I somehow feel like shopping alot for clothes when I go out these days. Weird. Its not like I don't have other new clothes. I just feel like buying more. Bluergh. NOT good. Someone, destroy my ATM card!!!

Thank goodness I don't have a credit card. >.<

I feel like singing a song. I wish I was famous. I wish I didn't have to worry about anything. I wish I was still 5 years old and waiting for my mum to get my dinner ready. I wish I could cry and get my way out of any situation I didn't like. I wish I was on a Hawaiian island swinging my hips away. I wish I was sleeping. I wish the weather was just right.

Oh, how I wish! X-P

Saturday, November 10, 2001

Is the moon's cycle casting some weird spell on us or something? Why does everyone seem slightly 'melancholy'? Ah well... better to not question it.

Cheers everyone! Good luck with work.

Thursday, November 08, 2001

Had a discussion with a friend yesterday about how some people take criticism differently. With some people, you just tell 'em once and they get it. Some people you tell a hundred times and they still don't get it. Some people you just have to shout at and be real mean. All is well when they understand why you are doing so, but when they think that you hate them (when you really don't), then there's trouble.

The thing is, should you be nicer to friends when you are correcting them for something they are doing wrong or just treat them as someone you don't know and just blast them away? How do we compromise?
And HOW do you tell someone who just doesn't want to listen?

To Booya: Nopes, nothing terrible happened yesterday. It's just the tons of work, late payments, tight schedules, lack of sleep and all that. No worries. We will survive. As always. :)

Tip of the day: Learn to read between the lines.

Anyone going to the Cleo party thingy this Friday? Jom!!! Get free stuff! XP

But we have to wear pink. PINK!? NooooOoOoOoOOoooo............

What 17 syllables can do for YOU!

In morning I wake,
Heavy breakfast of dim sum.
Think I ate too much.

Off to L.R.T.
Met friends in a Kembara.
Off then to The Star.

Got lost while parking.
In Eastin Hotel were we.
Ah well, nevermind.

In The Star we talked,
more than the interviewer,
blogs and osama.

Lunch at Midvalley,
Over priced food and drink- urgh!
Off to home I went.

Could not take my nap,
Oh noise, how I hate thee much,
chickens, cars and rain.

Bored as hell I am.
Waiting for yummy dinner,
So blogging I go!


Yea, yea... I know.. boring... :P

Lat night I discovered my diary which I started in 1995. Reading it, I discovered that I was just so oblivious to the world, going about my daily routine and actually sleeping at 11pm faithfully every night [and actually saying it was late!!] :P It was funny reading some of my entries and for some reason, my grammar was atrocious in some parts. Bluergh. I have no explanation for this. @_o The entries stopped abruptly in Feb 1996 and I'm still wondering why. Laziness? Highly likely.. XD

Anyways, I think I shall start some journal/ diary writing soon... I mean, start AGAIN. It's good for remembering the small things that one tends to forget after a while, but is actually worth remembering.

"...tonight will be a memory too, and a new day, has begun...."

*stomach growling*
Lunch time!!! Ho ho ho.



Sunday, November 04, 2001

I would like to thank my parents, my brother, my sister, my dog, my friends and most of all Saw for helping me out in FINISHING MY REPORT 2 for S.R.I !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Muaks to everyone! :D :X

Going to bathe now. Gawd, I stink.

Saturday, November 03, 2001

Friday, November 02, 2001

I'm suddenly having a craving for F&N 'Outrageous' Orange. Downed a whole 1.5 litre bottle in 2 days when I usually don't even touch the stuff. What's happening?! O_o

Anyways, S.R.I sucks big time. Starting to dislike typing right now. Even for chatting. Oh woe is me. Woe woe woe. :((

"Yesterday.... all my troubles seemed so far away... now it looks as though its here to stay..."

2 more weeks... 2 more weeks... urghh...

Thursday, November 01, 2001

To Saw: Get well soon! Remember, the flu is your enemy. Hohoho. And go slow on the cough medicine. XP

To Aimo: My condolences to you about the idiot art thief. May his name be banned forever and ever. :P

To Kotak: Finish your report!!!
