Let The Flames Begin!


Flight tickets are confirmed, alongside the tickets to one *particular* thing I was excited about which I will now reveal, coz its all confirmed and secured and stuff, LOL.


(photo by sister, Nadia @ Paramore Live in KL)


Is... PARAMORE LIVE IN MANCHESTER.

Yessss. I remember last year, during this time around, a few friends and I already planned a short trip to the UK to attend their concert. And this year, luckily enough, it is held during my holidays! YES YES YES. Alhamdulillahhhh. :-) The downside is that I'll be missing out on at least 2 days of classes. Which I'm quite nervous about coz I don't have a good track record, and this module is HEAVY. 

But I'll make sure to hit my head a couple times to remind myself not to be too ignorant with studies whilst there. InsyaAllah.

At first I wanted to jump at purchasing standing tickets, but chickened out a little coz. Lets face it. They're obviously much taller and much more aggressive in terms of moshing over there. I don't wanna end up fainting, or be blocked from clear view of the band. So my sister and I settled for seats, and from photos, the seats looks GOOD. Jyeahh.

Now I just need everything to go smoothly until the day comes. InsyaAllah, if God wills it. :-)




Frustrated.


Finding suitable flight dates for and by yourself online ain't easy peasy.
MUST head over to nearest travel agency.
STAT!

And if all else fails, or everything turns into a rojak of blur and confusion:
Ask your parents to do it for you. 

TEEHEE.


Heading over the land of big red double decker buses!
And meeting up THIS person; (photo below) and continue our love-hate relationship. 
But of course, we both know its more love than the latter.
BAHAHAHA.




PS: Any of my other uni-mates who are ULTRA MEGA BUMMED that our uni don't sell sweaters? WELL I AM! I expected it from the very beginning! But I guess by now I should've known to never EXPECT anything around here. LOL. Grateful nonetheless! Alhamdulillah. :-)

Torn.

Okay, we have a week hols coming up. And hols are a big fuss over here, coz we rarely ever get those. Last year, my family came over. But this time, I'm torn to choose between heading to Sharm El Sheikh with my friends and uni-mates, and North to hang with my sister.

Honestly speaking, I'm more excited to be up North since, well uhhh. I think by now anyone who reads this blog / knows me personally KNOWS that I'm a little bit biased towards anything English. So yeah. Anddddd because my sister and I have this one particular thing planned in mind, which is gonna TOTALLY ROCK if it happens. And to think that the only thing I need to do for that to happen is GET MY BUTT DOWN THERE makes me wanna, well... GET MY BUTT DOWN THERE.

LOL.

But I also like beaches. And the ones at Sharm El Sheikh is breathtakingly beautiful, no doubt. Unless all the pictures I've seen were greatly massacred by Photoshop, of course.

The only bad thing is, the tour consists of people of both sexes. NO. Its not that I'm anti-opposite sex. LOL. Its the almost certain fact that the girls won't be able to do much 'mingling' with the waters. If you know what I mean. So the thing that most fascinates me about the place: It offers SCUBA DIVING. And I'm very sure  we won't even be able to do that.

Disappointment. But then again, I didn't even bring my scuba license with me. -______-" BUMMER.

And UGH I know I should be exploring the grounds of Egypt first, but MEH. That one *particular thing I mentioned? Yeahh. Too big to pass up. Considering that I missed one/two/three chances already!

*minutes later.

My friends just left to pay for the Sharm El Sheikh trip. And even though I'm undecided, its DECIDED. LOL. I'm heading to Britainnnn YAY! Though a slight NAY for missing out on glorious blue beaches!! T__T

Okay so I'm gonna decide what to do with my time there now. AND plan on how and where to get my hands on tickets. Traveling alone won't be easy, but I'll make the most out of it!

Revisiting Past Fan-doms.

This time its Meteor Garden. LOL. Oh GOD, there are just too may good, embarrassing and epic memories from my past addiction to this particular Taiwanese TV series.

I remember very well watching it late into the night with sister Lisa. We'd pop the CD into the player and watched as many episodes as we could before we had to go to school the next morning. LOL. Its a miracle as of how I managed to not feel sleepy AT ALL back then, when I had literally no sleep at all, and how I am ALWAYS sleepy every chance I get nowadays even though I have enough (sometimes more) sleep. 

But thats not what I wanna talk about.

The thing is, my sister and I were sooooo in love with this series that we'd get our hands on everything and or anything that has to do with it. Be it an official item, or an unofficial one. Particularly those sold at Hot Market in Alam Sentral. ZOMG. ZOMG. 

HOT MARKET LAH DUDE.

Soooo many notebooks, posters and small boxes as proof. 

We even bought CD cases with Dau Ming Shi and Hua Ze Lei's face on it, and errrr a bunch of mousepads. I remember them being from Speedy. LOL LOL LOL. Kenot blahhhh okay.

I even bought an F4 music CD, that I don't think I ever listened to BTW. And mind you, a lot of the stuffs I mentioned are still available around the house. Never had the heart to throw them away. YES. Including the now considered incredibly ridiculous scrolled up, life size poster of Vic Zhou.

Hey, don't blame me coz I'm easily smitten back then.

AND NOW I HAVE A CHANCE TO REVISIT THOSE GOOD OLD (pathetic, even) DAYS COZ METEOR GARDEN FINALLY FINISHED DOWNLOADING. JUST MERE MINUTES AGO!!

AND I'M SPAZZING!!!! *note caps lock.

Hearing the start-up tune of Harlem Yu's 'Qing Fei De Yi' and Penny Dai's 'Ni Yao De Ai' is making me exceptionally cheerful. LOL.

That is all for now y'all, coz I obviously gonna go watch it now. TEEHEE. GOODBYE!

Here's a few screencaps:

SPAZZ TIME.

Well, hello there Vic Zhou who plays Hua Ze Lei.

Hello, good first impression.


LOL. K bye!

Polaroids and Party Music.












Random pictures taken from my flight from Doha to Alexandria about a month ago. These got me into small trouble with the stewardess coz it was taken with my phone. When it was supposed to be turned off. Though, I swear I'm not ignorant.

My phone just has Airplane mode. 

PFFFT. Like almost every other phone nowadays la kan. But I guess the stewardess thought it was better safe than sorry?

BTW, lately been strangely addicted to these two songs:

Far East Movement's 'Like a G6'.


I'm kinda in love with the chorus. Haha. The girl's so FLYYYYYY.
Okay, I fail as a gangsta.

... and...

Pixie Lott's 'Boys and Girls'.


HER LEGS! O____O


Temporary.


Actually annoyed with how my blog used to look, and how its looking right now. -____-" But too lazy to make changes at the moment.

*huffs.

Its Wowo, Bitch.

Its been so longgggggg. Hahah. I honestly missed writing, but had to postpone every time, coz... well, details schmetails, right? Who cares, PFFFT.

I SERIOUSLY hope that right after this post, I'll get back to my usual impulsive-posting self. I just have soooo many thoughts, all the time, and I need an outlet already yawww. Or my brain is gonna burst, and the whole world's gonna be covered with carcasses of my useless thoughts. 

Ahhh. Exaggeration. Missed that as well. LOL.

Okay, so today is Saturday, and well uh. Its been two days after my Module 7 exams. WHICH concerns 'Infection and Immunity' And, to be completely honest, I blanked out on at least half of the questions. I mean, PFFFT some people would expect that by looking back on my past results, but honestly y'all. I ain't kidding. The latest paper sucks balls. 


This kinda ball. Okay y'all. Pure, clean minds, PUHLEASE. LOL.

But what sucks even more is the ONE DAY gap the university gave us before dropping on top our shoulders, literally, if you may, the most hard and complicated module we would ever receive during the pre-clerkship phase of our studies. Now, THIS fact here is no exaggeration. I dare quote the lecture who said it.

If I could (at least) remember her first name.

Seriously. Lecturer names around here never stick. -____-" But thats hardly a problem.

And the one day of 'holiday' given to us were used wisely. Well, not quite. But mehhh what else is there to do other than to watch a movie, and walk around aimlessly around a shopping mall.

So my housemates and I went to Green Plaza the night our exams ended to do just that. We watched 'You Again', which I kinda protested against at first, but gave in since everyone else was lenient on the movie choice, so... yeah. Bought a bucket of cotton candy coz I loveeeee cotton candy! I'm not into sweets, but in the form of touchable cloud fluff, I can manage. WAHAHA. 



And oh yeah, despite not getting to watch what I wanted which was and still is: Scott Pilgrim VS The World since its not showing here yet, 'You Again' was exceptionally funny. So yes, that means shameless laughs all the way. I swear, the most crowd I've seen in a cinema around here was when I watched 'New Moon' with my sisters when my family came by last December.

The theatre was empty that night, which was kind of a downer. Coz good crowds makes the movie better. 

Afterwards, the four of us just walked around in the cold, stopped by the new Carrefour Express (which I got extra-excited about, coz it was a change from large warehouse-style supermarkets and sluggish, packed ones they have around here, and reminded me of the ones in Malaysia) to get maple syrup for my almost-daily breakfast nowadays: PANCAKES and a packet of cheese.

Random. Whats even more random is me telling you that I can cook up an almost-mean batch of cupcakes! LOL. Nussow, if you're reading this, you still up for that pancake challenge? JYEAH.

It was fairly cold that night, so I suggested that we hung around and drink hot chocos. Thus the stop by over at Costa Coffee.

[1] Mine. Chocolate Fudge Cream Truffle Popsicle blahblahblah. I don't remember, okay? What I'm sure of is that its made of chocolate. And I need no more information than that.

[2] Haslinowt's Strawberry Cheesecake. One of the very few REAL cheesecakes made of ACTUAL cheese rather than some foamy whipped cream around here. Mind you, I simultaneously ate this cake alongside mine, coz I love cake like that k. Ever heard the phrase I love (insert WTV it is you love here) like a fat kid loves cake? 

Well, I'm the fat kid. Your cake, is my cake. 

[3] Thaqifah and Uun. Okay, fine, Oon with their visually appealing but tastefully appalling cup of hot choco. Or should I say, hot milk? Emphasis should be on CHOCOLATE, people. Not the milk percentage. Gettitright.

[4] Haslinowt and I. Unsatisfied with this picture, coz I was obviously ready to pose with my cake, but the photographer failed to grasp said information. Thus:

[5] Ahhh better. OKAY HEPI NAW.

[6] Qifok can act y'all. Fo show. Fo shizzle my nizzle. LOL.

[7] And me, being the glutton that I truly am.


The next day, went over a friend's place for their open house. But being of course, fashionably late. LOL. By arriving one hour later than everyone else. Hey, don't blame me for my housemates waking up late.

Later that day, proceeded to City Centre where I honestly wanted to shop, but didn't since I figured everything's gonna be on sale soon with winter coming and whatnot. So to avoid LOUD GASPS upon discovering the outerwear you bought for LE 200++ costing lower than LE 100 and hitting my head against the nearest wall, I made the wise decision to be patient. And wait it out.

Coz I was aiming to finally get myself a bloody keyboard anyways.

But didn't. SOB.

Coz the guy at the shop kept looking at me like I'm gonna grab one of the keyboards and flee the shop. UGH. Come on. You need to hold the door for me in order for me to do that! 

And I was annoyed at him coz whatever question I asked him he gave me 'No' as an answer. DUDE. I asked you the freakin' price, and your answer is NO?? The way I see it: You're either mentally retarded, or you just ENJOY being a pain in someone else's A**.

I would've just purchased the thing coz (1) I wanted one, and (2) To at least annoy the guy and show him I am SERIOUS about purchasing it. But I haven't activated my other credit card yet. And the one I'm currently using has a limit that well, would embarrass me if I proceeded to the counter. 

I'll have to ask Mama and Ayah to activate the other one for me.

And that is all. Other than me falling asleep halfway through watching White Chicks with the homies later that night after downing two slices of pizza, nothing really interesting happened.

Oh BTW, am I the only one slightl spazzing over Blogger's new photo uploader?? Or is it no longer eligible to be called new? -____-" I missed quite a lot.


AND AND theres like ancient photos in there! (Picasa Web Albums) I mean. LOL. LOOOOOKKKKKKKKKKK at theseeeee they're from back then when I chopped me hair! Which was... early 2008! 

SPAZZING SPAZZING SPAZZING. LOL.


I've always wanted to stole the top above from Lisa. HAHAHA.
*coughs. Still kinda do.


Since we're *kinda" in the topic of hairs,  I end this post with hairstyles I tried over at TAAZ for you criticize, ridicule, made fun of,  laugh at, or even take time to print and ponder over before you fall asleep at night. BAHAHA.

Posted this one on Facebook asking for opinions. LOL. I know I've sworn off being blond, but the other day a friend told me to go ahead. And that got me thinking. And well, I can't la kan once dah start thinking. Lagi-lagi if it concerns my hair, that I have absolutely no qualms in ruining.
-___-"

BAHAHA. The colour though...

Read in robot voice: I am Taylor Momsen wannabe.

HEEEE.

This cut looks like the one I had though.

And pictures below, are for your entertainment. Like, seriously. I mean, what other reasons do I have for putting such hideous + embarrassing + has potential to be something people will use to threaten me in the future (like my old I.C. card that Eja holds. GRRR.).

Take it as an apology for being absent for so long.
Or rather, an in-your-face statement saying: "I'm backkk and Imma annoy you will all the crap I'm gonna write about! MUAHAHAHA"

Me trying to be Charlize Theron.
EPIC FAILURE.

Me trying to be Selena Gomez.
A failure, but not as epic as an attempt to turn into Theron.

This hair belongs to errrr.... *remembers* Christina Aguilera.
I look like a 60 year old hooker. PFFT.

Niiiiiii. Okay sumpah tak ingat siapa. But yeah, have fun laughing. LOL.

Coz I got to go eat me some more pizzaaaaaaa at a gathering yawwww. Till then!
