Spongebob Squarepants Campfire Song Song

Doesn't that bring back memories jaan?

Anyways, my parents and I went all the way, yes all the way, ALL THE WAY to Jalan Bahtera for Zimah's campfire and guess what! We weren't allowed in, sigh. I miss her terribly :(

So we then went to Mr Teh Tarik to have dinner and we bumped into my parents' friends, who also turned out to be my childhood friend's parents as well. And omg, the aunty wanted to "chope" me for her son (??!!). Of course I was like all smiles when she said that, but inside I was like "Omg are you freaking serious?! You've got to be kidding me! That son of yours! Eww eww eww!"

Weird much.

Either way I found out I'm nothing without you

It was Oscar night yesterday, and must I say the show was entertaining! It was definitely better than the previous years. Of course it had so much to do with Hugh Jackman, who was the host of the show. I never knew Hugh could sing, and he not only sang on the show, he even danced! Wow. The other artistes were undoubtedly mind-blowing as well and so the show was ALMOST perfect. Why almost? Coz Vanessa Hudgens "The Extra" just had to be on stage and performed as well. Bleurgh!

Kate Winslet should stop receiving awards. Seriously. I didn't watch The Reader, and I don't think I will anyways, so I don't know whether she was that brilliant there. She might have given an outstanding performance, who knows. But she should stop winning awards just because I really cannot stand her dramatic speech. Seriously woman, it's not like your first time receiving. So please stop flustering and acting all "Omg I can't believe this" and start getting all emotional. It gets abit tiresome to watch that whole thing over again, you know.

And yeah, am I a sucker for scandals or what! When Jennifer Aniston and Jack Black got on stage to give out awards, I can't help but keeping a lookout for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to see their expressions. Thank God, the cameramen were on my side, so they kept showing the couple throughout the whole time Jennifer and Jack were on stage. And wow, the couple actually were laughing at the jokes and clapping their hands. I was actually looking forward to some drama, haha. But oh wells, they didn't get nominated for Oscar for nothing!

I went to watch "Buttons" with Fizah yesterday. The movie was abit too long actually. I kept looking at my watch coz I couldn't stand it. Hindi movies can be equally long or even longer, but that is a different thing altogether.

"Buttons" was monotonous throughout. I was like zzzz-ed most of the time. The only time I got excited was during the war scene at sea. The shooting looked so real that I kept flinching a few times coz I thought I was going to get shot -.-

Besides that, I must say the make-up and visual effects departments did a stunning job on the characters. They manage to fool us audience and make the characters look as if they really aged, or in Benjamin's case, makes him look younger.

I was never a Brad Pitt's fan, but I think his performance in the beginning, when he was a young kid stuck in an old man's body, was really beautiful :)

Sadly enough, it was only towards the end of the movie that I was really moved. During the last 1 hour (or was it 1/2 hour, I don't know), the movie gets really emotional that I cried, heh.

Oh keep a look out for this particular character who keeps popping up from nowhere and says he got striked by the lightning 7 times. He's hilarious!

Next up, He's Just Not That Into You and Luck by Chance, whichever comes first.

On Sunday night, the whole family had a get together session after a really long time. Yes, we see one another every night, but sometimes each of us is just too busy with our own lives that we don't sit and have bonding time. So after Maghrib prayers that night, we sat at the living room and talked.

And suddenly, the door bell rang and we all shut up. It was like a scene from a movie where everybody is happy and suddenly somebody rang the doorbell and the background music will change to add suspense. So yeah the exact same thing happened, just minus the background music part. And Zimah got freaked out all of a sudden coz she thought it was a ghost (??!!) and hugged me for dear life -.-

It turned out some dude is selling muffins and we bought 4 packets for $12. They were surprisingly nice actually. Afterall we bought banana and chocolate flavours, after much persuasion on my side.

By then I have already missed like 45 mins of Shark Tale, which I intended to watch actually. After we ate the muffins, we continued our chat in the parents' room till about 9pm :)

Ok come to think of it, I'm not exactly sure why I'm blogging about this. Well, I just think it's a memorable occasion. We blog when we meet our friends and talk and have a good time. This is exactly the same thing, only that I know for all my nonsense in the world, rest assured that they will always be there for me.

I haven't been working much but Janice "The Manager" keeps sending us emails and reminders. In fact, the number of emails I received is more than the number of days I work per week nowadays, tsk.

And I have been told that when I work I either look stressed or tired when I'm not serving customers. The thing is, I don't particularly feel stressed or tired at work most of the time. It's just that sometimes I don't smile. I mean, who smiles throughout the day for nothing anyways?!

I have received those comments from my colleagues a couple of times now so on the way home from work on Saturday, I actually observed my reflection in the MRT to understand what they are saying. Well, it's true, when I don't smile I tend to have this mean look but everybody does anyways! Maybe I was bored in the MRT or I just had too much time on my hands, coz I started to try to make my face "softer-looking" in the MRT, haha! I tried to smile abit and also not to make my eyebrows so arch-ish.

I don't want to look scary. Afterall I might meet by "Rajkumar" anytime anywhere! But after a few failed attempts in changing my face expressions, I realised I don't really care. If "Rajkumar" has to see me like this, then he just got to see me like this!

Zimah has been away since yesterday for her Pri 5 camp. And we all are missing her already!

And you wanna pull her close, but your heart has froze

So yesterday, Uncle Edmund dropped by at the shop and he told Gillian and I that he's leaving the company for good. I didn't buy that at first coz a year ago he told me the exact same thing and he still came back anyways after his so-called break. But this time Uncle Edmund said it's for real. It's pretty sad really coz he is actually one of the few "upper" people that i truly like.

FYI, he's 45, smells good, charming, really really nice guy, has a girlfriend in Philippines and doesn't intend to get married...ever! Wow, I'm speechless.

Will miss you Uncle Edmund :)

"You haven't been working in awhile".

Now doesn't THAT sound oh so familiar? It's like dejavu or something, but just a different person saying it.

Nice start, nice start to the conversation but it totally turned me off after only a few seconds into it. Sad huh, coz I really liked you. Oh wells, now that we are over the "Haizad" phase, I can go back to "Shayne Ward" or maybe just move on to another person.

~

On Wednesday, I met up with Midah, Nisah, Shasha and Last for dinner. Ok it wasn't much like a dinner coz only Shasha and I were hungry. The rest just nibbled here and there coz they weren't so hungry. Like HELLO?! I thought we met up for dinner! Ok nevermind...

So yeah I was so glad Midah was there with me coz if not I would probably be the only one babbling non-stop. Everybody still looks the same except for Shasha, according to Midah *roll eyes*. But yeah, it was relatively nice to see these familiar faces after SO long and still able to talk. Well, technically Midah and I did the talking most of the time and the rest just listened -.- I can't blame them so much coz I should know better that they don't talk much even after lots, and i mean LOTS, of prompting.

A successful meet up thanks to Shasha and Nisah. And I'm actually looking forward to the next one :)

My parents are really romantic towards each other. I never exactly thought that people around their age can still be really in love with each other coz I thought that by the time you reach a certain age, you will just learn to live with your partner and all the passion are all gone.

But my parents are different. Ok maybe some of your parents too, I don't know. It's just that I thought it's rare to see Malay couples (ok fine, in this case Malay-Indian couple) being all lovey-dovey though they are reaching their 50s in a few years time.

1) They sing to each other when their favourite songs come on the radio, be it in the kitchen or in the car.

2) They eat from the same plate and feed each other.

3) They hold hands when we all go out and I have to take care of Zimah when we are crossing the road -.-

4) They still go out on movie or dinner dates and leave me taking care of the siblings at home.

As a matter of fact, they are out now to celebrate Valentine's Day. I may not be a rich or hot, but I'm pretty much happy that I'm blessed with loving parents who love us children and who are still in love with each other.

Cheers!

A sick and upset me is a very deadly combination. Not good at all. So I'm sorry if I was being irritating yesterday though Farhana's default answer is always,"No you're not irritating me". Yes yes, I'm lucky to have a friend like you.

Farhana approves of "Haizad" big time! I like.

And thank you so much for the brownie. We wanted to take a photo of it but it got abit squishy by the time we wanted to do that. But it tasted really nice. All chewy and sweet...and must I add, Zimah ate half of it.

I am really a klutz. While waiting for the traffic light yesterday, I just slipped and fell down. And yes, in front of so many people walking by. Weirdly enough, I just started to laugh hysterically when I was on the ground coz I was suddenly remembered of how I hit the tree on Wednesday with Mira. I got up eventually and yes the butt did hurt.

"The Shimah Show! Coming up next: Shimah falls into a tiny longkang!"

Curses Mira. I'm so coming after you if that really happens...provided I get out of the longkang first :)

~

Oh man! This season of Survivor isn't interesting at all. But maybe it's abit too early to judge coz afterall it has only been one episode so far. I got a feeling that this season can't beat the last season which by far is the best season of Survivor ever! The back-stabbing, the drama and the hotties. Sigh, what a blast that season was.

First episode. No Marcus with a revealing dick. This season confirm no good la Mira.

But American Idol seems really good. The amount of talent on the show is going to be really worth watching. There will be some irritating contestants like Tatiana, but she won't last for long anyways.

I'm rooting for Adam, Danny, blind guy and Indian guy.

Also, Amazing Race is coming back! Woohoo. Seriously, I can just watch all these reality shows everyday.

~

I met Midah on Thursday! Haha to meet Midah is sometimes an impossible thing to achieve, but I finally got her. And once again, we wore same colour clothes again - pink top, blue bottom. I have no idea how we always do that though we never plan what to wear. Furthermore, she was from school and I was from work. But oh wells, the fact that we always wear same thing is somewhat endearing.

Till next Wednesday then!

~

Happy Valentine's Day! especially to Chris Brown and Rihanna. Muahahaha :)

Like a virgin

People judge other people all the time. Sometimes even close friends. And I think it's pretty normal.

Normal days, I would have told jaan anything exciting that happened in my life. But recently I thought that if I make such a big hoo-haa about it then it won't happen again. But I was so wrong. Oh wells, omg still excited about the "hand touch arm" thing ok. Electrifying!

It's 8:12am and I'm awake. I barely slept actually. And Mira is still awake -.-

It just takes one person, one meet up, one really cluttered dream and one hot guy to make me not go back to sleep after Subuh, and mind you I only slept at 3:30am. Like wow right?

Till then...Like a virginnnnnn...

I'd stand up and punch them out, Cause they're all wrong

I'm still feeling overly excited and so maybe now's not a very good time to blog, but heck here I go.

Today was one of those wicked awesome days! Everything went as planned so that made both Mira and I very happy and satisfied people at the end of the day.

Omg I can't stop grinning, I really need to snap out of it!

Anyways, met for lunch at Canele and something wow-ing happened there :) Food there was good as usual. I was pretty scared that Mira might not like it but it turned out she liked the meal and the dessert. Hooray!

So went to Ben & Jerry's after that to get the tickets. Omg I suck at finding things coz after 5 seconds I will just start doing nonsense. So I asked Mira to help me find the missing tickets and she was like all practical and "It might just be staring right back in your face now." And there you go! The tickets were actually right there on the table *bang head*.

Went Clarke Quay after that to get something nice for Mira and thank God she liked it too :) And that's when I realised I left my wallet altogether at B&J *bang head again*. So went back there again in the horrible downpour, boo :(

So finally all set to go Sentosa. And we saw Nat Ho there, woohoo! Ok I just find him really good-looking despite the fact that he has really small eyes. But they are so cute!

When we reached Beach Station, we went straight for the segway ride. The whole thing was just plain hilarious. I was pretty ok on the segway at first, but later I hit this black thing on the side of the track. That's when I lost it. I started laughing, making Mira laugh with me and the guys were like "Wassup with these 2 girls?". So one of the guy helped and he said, "Be careful, make sure you don't hit the tree now." ...2 seconds later, bang head. Literally. Omg, I'm such a klutz.

Crazy ride. Mira was calm and collected as always. I have no idea how she does that, pfft.

After that we were supposed to go Omar's Make Out island but it was out of bounds, barnacle head! Sigh, so we just sat at the beach and watched the really beautiful sunset. Nice. After leaving a message on the sand, we left the place coz it was getting dark. We took the tram and sat at the back, which Mira said that we were like Banglas sitting on the back of lorry -.-

Sentosa is really beautiful at night. I so wanna buy the membership card so that I can go there every month. It's worth it :)

Next month maybe...

Later I ate roti john with Mira in the bus. I didn't want to at first coz I'm just scared that I will get fined. But we managed to finish the whole packet, alright!

Anyways! I can't wait for tomorrow. I'm so excited about tomorrow. And I'm excited for no particular reason (actually there is one, but just don't want to admit) or maybe for all the reasons in the world. Afterall it is the month to celebrate love :)

And we can pop bottles all night

I just helped with my sister's art homework. Gosh I missed those days where art is all about doing...or doodling whatever you want. Afterall, art is about expressing oneself.

I went to Geylang yesterday and there was no dendeng! And I was really disappointed about that. It was supposed to be Geylang = Dendeng. But not anymore I guess. Oh wells, hopefully can get dendeng at Arab Street on Saturday :)

I liked watching the Grammys. It's like watching a concert actually. And this year was pretty good because there were quite a few brilliant collaborations. We all know the Justin-T.I. pair was going to be awesome, so no surprises there. I like the Miley-Taylor, Jay-Z-T.I.-Lil Wayne-Kanye West, Justin-Al Green, Stevie-Jonas Brothers...and I'm sure a few more.

But the best part was to know that Chris Brown and Rihanna couldn't make it to Grammys because there are reports that Chris apparently assaulted the girlfriend.

BREAK UP BREAK UP!

They were supposed to perform together but opted out, so that slot was later given to Justin and Al Green, which was nice.

BREAK UP BREAK UP!

I'm sorry, but even after all these allegations made against Chris, I'm still pro-Chris. I'm sure there was a perfectly good reason why he attacked her or whatsoever.

BREAK UP BREAK UP!
Ok, I should stop that, I'm sure I've made my point clear.

On Sunday, Midah drove us to religious class. It was wicked awesome! Apparently it was her first time driving without the presence of her parents by her side. I'll say she did a pretty decent job with it. Driving actually looks easy...but well it was auto. I'm sure driving test isn't going to be that easy. What I see as a problem to me is probably trying to park. It does look pretty hard :( But hell, we'll work on that.

Next week, she'll probably be driving again, and she'll bring me to the cd rental shop. I can foresee myself spending so much money on rented cds, but there are simply so many movies to watch, what to do.

~

Another awards show that I watched was Star Screen Awards. Not nice coz all the big Bollywood stars were missing in action. There was no SRK, Salman, Amitabh, Abhishek, Rani, Preity, Kareena, Saif, the sorts.

And the hosts, well, nobody can compare to the SRK-Saif pairing.

And Ashutosh Gowariker had to get all drama with Sajid Khan (one of the hosts), because he thought that Sajid was being very rude with the stars. Hello dude, if you have watched the show before, you should know that Star Screen is very "relek one corner" kinda awards show and the hosts will definitely make fun of the stars, but are all in good spirit.

Oh wells, it added to the entertainment factor anyways!

~

Over the weekend, I watched Baabul starring Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Rani Mukherji, Hema Malini, John Abraham. Sad, sad, sad movie. Especially the part where Avinash (Salman Khan) died. There was no subtitles but it was still sad. You can actually imagine yourself in their positions. To lose that special someone. Ouch.

I cried. That says something.

Nice casting, I love Salman when he's all romantic. One major flaw was John's hairstyle. Sucky. It was the old floppy, supposedly hot hairdo. So not!

~

Random...
1) T.I.'s real name is Clifford Joseph Harris Jr....Who would have thought? He's only 28 and has 5 kids. Seriously, who would have thought...

2) I'm getting addicted to Taylor Swift's "Love Story". Nice song, but I need to get over this phase soon.

3) Sometimes I wonder why Joe Jonas is needed in the group. Even Nick sings more and he is playing the guitar! Joe just play a stupid tamborine...or nothing most of the time.

4) I wanna watch so many movies, but jaan keeps rejecting, haha no pressure!

Dum dum dum dum dum dum dum

I'm easily sleepy nowadays. When I get home, I can just drop dead and sleep for hours. But no, I usually will watch tv or on rare occasions, go online. I'm not too sure why I'm sleepy coz I definitely have more than enough sleep most of the time so lack of sleep is so out of the question. Maybe coz I'm outside all day long? I don't know.

I think if I don't focus enough, I can actually sleep here too. As in in front of the screen. But no, the body needs the bed.

And continuing from previous entry, I officially think I'm going bonkers. Crazy. I need to snap out of it, but it's so nice, haha. Hell no, still need to snap out of it.

I so need a new distraction. But maybe I don't want to.

And I hope Midah gets to drive her car tomorrow...later, whatever :)

I need you boo, I gotta see you boo

I was randomly youtube-ing Justin Timberlake when I came across this video on Esmee Denters doing a "What Goes Around Comes Around". I've actually watched that video before but didn't finish watching it because I find nothing special about it coz she isn't the first to do a Justin song and post it on youtube. I have no idea why, but yesterday I decided to watch the video till the end and OMG! Justin was in the video too. He even played piano and be her back up singer. Sweet Niblets!

Links after links, I came across this boy, Justin Bieber who can sing oh so well! The way he sings, oh my god, it was just awesome :)

Oh I need my Him to serenade me like that :)

Anyways, paedo-ing with Mira was fun!

Work now is crazy! And the funny part is, the crazy element has nothing to do with work.

It can be a good crazy and bad crazy. Good crazy leaves you feeling all tingling inside and bad crazy leaves you feeling disappointed, though it's not exactly anybody's fault.

God, I'm crazy. Totally crazy.

Oh and I think Bangku Kosong is stupid. Pfft.

What is your True Fear? Your Result: Disappointment   You are a fun-loving, energetic, and cheerful person. You love adrenaline rushes, and going out at night. You constantly have to be having a great time to feel completely happy. Your biggest fear is not having anything to do, or having a huge disappointment/let down in your life. You hate being sad, and if something in your life suddenly went wrong it would be extremely hard for you to deal with. Just remember that everyone has to deal with hard times. Stay strong, and pretty soon your fun, party life will get right back the way it used to be.

What rubbish. I don't like to go out at night! And I'm rarely bored because I can always find something to do. And what fun, party life?! Pfft.

It's you and me, moving at the speed of light into eternity

I have no idea why we need to have Basic Theory lessons when it doesn't contribute much to Basic Theory Test.

The first part of the lesson was horrible. The instructor can't speak good English and generally, people who don't have a good grasp of English just tick me off. He was abit draggy at parts but oh wells, he didn't mind Farhana and I drinking bubble tea during his lesson, which makes him not so bad actually.

The second part of the lesson got better, solely because it was a different instructor :) While Farhana was busy trying to make me play Tic-Tac-Toe with her, I was too engrossed in the lesson. Sorry babe!

And he noticed me! YES :)

So no more lessons, practice or evaluation for a month. That means, no Chombi till then too, haha. And yes, I will study for the test Farhana, only because I don't want to pay for retest.

And it's Justin Timberlake's birthday today and I celebrated by sitting by the river and watching fireworks...well reflection of fireworks actually, but who cares.

Oh, just a tip to the guys: When a girl you know walks past you, ignores you and is texting someone, trust me, there's a very high chance that the girl actually likes you alot and is trying her best to pretend to ignore you...So DO something!
