frustrated

Saturday, November 28, 2009 . 1:30 PM

these few days i get so frustrated easily. i wonder why. and the person who is getting the short end of the stick is my grandma. my temper always flare around her. maybe it's coz she suffocates me sometimes. too overprotective. too easily excited. especially when i drive. guilt creeps in at times when i do that. but what can i do. i dont like her mentality. enough about her. or i might go on about her the whole post. anyways, i have been stuck rotting at home for the 2 weeks of my holidays and i am dying to get out of the house. since it's christmast season, i think i'll go watch a few disney movies...=D


a noticable change?

Saturday, November 21, 2009 . 2:53 PM

i suppose the change in my blog template is quite noticable. even when it came to the colour combinations of it. i suppose i needed a change since i have been lingering around the dark side for too long. so this time i chose something a little bit brighter than my usual colours which was always mainly grey/dark purple/black/crimson red. however,so note that even though my colours are much more attractive this time, i am still who i am. do not hope to see cute teddy bears and voodoo dolls decorating my blog. coz brighter colours dont really necessarily mean a brighter attitude. 

speaking of attitude, i just came to realize that i am not really a good friend to those around me. i mean, all the time i keep making promises i cant keep. well, they're not really promises but just words that i cannot fulfill even though i intended to do so when it came out of my mouth. but as time passes i get lost in the midst of studies and "trying to have a life" i completely forget about them. come to think of it, i am selfish in a way. 

and i am becoming more and more of a loner i guess. this is not a good sign. 



pancakes,tricia and an old sad song

Thursday, November 19, 2009 . 1:20 AM

been thinking of promoting my favourite cafe a while back but i never really got a chance to do so. after much pestering i managed to get my dad to bring me there for a good hearty breakfast on monday and it was good!! i love their breakfast sets. and coffee. mmm. lattes!! yeah. you heard me. i am a caffeine junkie. i dont think i can live without drinking coffee/latte/espresso for a week. i'll just drop dead.

yeah. i agree with this slogan. fits the description perfectly.
oh btw. did i mention that it's called pan cafe?
the cover of the menu.
my pancake set!
and my iced rose cafe latte! check out the rose essence at the bottom of the glass. that was my first time trying the drink and i fell in love with it on the first sip. lolz.
my grandma's assam chicken rice. i dont recommend eating their oriental food here. their breakfasts and westerns are slightly better. but fried rice is okay though.
my dad's iced lemon tea. looks normal. 

the counter which i am always facing everytime i go to the cafe. coz i always sit at the same spot. lolz.

on the other hand, went for lunch with tricia yesterday...which pretty much turned out to be a tea meal instead of lunch. but its all good. after our meal in prince, we went for a spontaneous trip to tropicana city mall thinking we could catch a movie. but alas, time does not allow that so we settled for a crazy time of SSing. lolz. most of the pictures are posted on facebook but i post some here for fun. =P. 

we tried on stuff on kitschen and had a blast with the camera. well,more like SHE had a blast with the camera. XD.
a pair of wedding bears on display at borders.
me and my snowball man. so cute!
we invited a few characters from toys r us to join us in our insane moment.
i love hugging huge toys. too bad i have sinus. or else my room would be full of those stuff. 

a punching pillar(?) which didnt work very well. it didnt stand its ground when tricia delivered her super punch (i think i can hear tricia saying "RAWR!")

on a side note. i am very much addicted to whitney houston's old song. what a powerful song to listen to when im wallowing in self pity.

and i'll end here.

Your Best Trait is Creativity



You may seem like you're a bit flaky or flighty, but you're really just deep in thought.

You are the artistic type, no doubt. However, you are also highly analytical and logical. 

You are able to solve problems in unique and interesting ways. Your ideas are unpredictable, but they always end up making sense.

You are picky and sometimes downright critical. You expect the best of yourself, but others are not prepared for your exacting standards.

wah!

Tuesday, November 3, 2009 . 8:47 PM

still in the middle of exam season. but im halfway through it. three more tough subjects to go and voila. im on my way to genting with my coursemates right after. lolz. and shit. i gained weight. need to start my exercise routine again. im not sure as of when i gained, before or after i moved back home for semester break, but i know i have been eating a lot lately. which is something i have to stop if i would like to still fit into my clothes. sighz. i'm currently looking for a sports partner. hm. wonder where can i buy one of those. anyways, i just bought books chick-lit books. famous authors, but for a fraction of the market price for those.


RM20.00 for each book. the one from meg cabot is a two in one omnibus, so technically, its RM40.00 for three books. so happy. love books. and to think that mph sells each book at almost double the price.  meanwhile, i caught a picture of a dark looking doll which i thought was quite pretty. a gothic pullip doll. lolz. see?


i remember at one point these dolls were tricia's obsession. lolz. she used to search all over the internet and see how people decorated their dolls with trendy clothes. then again, she has lots of temporary obesssions. david cook,tvxq,pullip dolls, etc etc.

well, thats all for today. tataz.



of modern solo pianists and symphonic metal screamers

Saturday, October 31, 2009 . 12:14 PM

i'm still caught in the midst of exams, trying to concentrate despite all the distractions that lay around me. but my current interests lay in finding the perfect piano piece. like this one:

this video reminded me of fond memories of watching charmed. and how much i miss being carefree. the first time i heard it, it tugged at my heartstrings. and from then on, i have been searching for pieces like this, to add a little bit of tender serenity to my super angsty music compilation.

somewhere along the way, i found jo blankenburg's website. what amuses me most was not his songs (although they are really easy to the ears) but the way his site was set up(in his main site). in all my life of internet surfing, i rarely come across sites that make use of animated mechanisms with such good graphics. be sure to check out the music section too. meanwhile, new age piano is a great place to listen to streaming piano solos.


i want to go back to watching jigoku shoujo mitsuganae now. i must say this is the best season of jigoku shoujo i have watched so far. very intriguing. so obsessed with her ruby eyes and feigned nonchalance. lolz.

tataz.




exam week and...

Tuesday, October 27, 2009 . 12:04 PM

I'm too lazy to read stupid claims like how Islam is the greatest religion of all time...or how good and efficient our govenrment is. honestly, i dont give a rat's ass about Islam Civilization and Ethnic Studies. It's all a big load of BS. Oh well, I suppose things would be better after this week. I can't help but to feel slightly detached from my friend, wether they are new or old. Old friends, I hardly make an effort to stay in touch. New friends, they are all bonding over meals and badminton matches in the hostel while I am home. Feeling pretty much alone in the world right now. The only static people I have in my life would be my family. Meanwhile, struck by boredom, I did something nostalgic...quizzes!! I'm posting my results just to keep my blog alive and kicking

Your Birthday is Pink


You are the dreamy type. You can't help but be an idealist, even if your dreams get crushed from time to time.

You have a vision of how the world should be. You work hard to make life easier and better for people. 

You are generous. In fact, you give until it hurts and expect nothing in return.

You are sometimes disappointed. It's discouraging to have such high hopes when things don't work out.


Personality Type Quiz
Realistic Personality Type You've got a pretty even-keeled head on your shoulders. You're well-grounded and realistic. You don't really daydream or think about the future (unless you're planning ahead, of course). Actually, you tend to find day-dreaming and flightiness pretty annoying and pointless. Sometimes people get you confused for being pessimistic, but you know that you're just being real.

You are inspiring and uplifting. You bring out the best in people, through both nurturing and challenging them.

You always can see the big picture in life. You are very philosophical and deeply spiritual.

You understand people, and you can look at their lives objectively. You can help others grow and heal.

never thought i would say this...

Monday, October 19, 2009 . 4:05 PM

...but home is where i want to be. always. growing up, i always thought i could take care of myself pretty well. fact is, i can. it's just that i dont want to. over the years, as my rebellious phase faded, my relationship with my parents grew stable, i am truly comfortable with them. no masks. no concealment. and they care about me. well, duh. they are family right. friends here care too. i know they do in some ways. but i dont know why, i find that there's something between us. language barrier perhaps? communication is no problem. but...interest wise, the difference is like night and day. could it be that i have grown more reclusive? could it be that my silence intimidates people? or my emo attitude sets people off? all i know is the longer i am here, the strain gets worse. 


back here again....

Monday, October 12, 2009 . 11:43 AM

back in college after travelling to and fro from home for a week. i dont have the mood to rant on and on today. so i will just post up some pictures from Lantern Festival 2009 organized by K11 and K10. captionless of course.






aikz. feeling lazy already. tataz. need to find something to entertain me....




oooohh.....im so addicted!!

Within Temptation feat Chris Jones - Utopia

The burning desire
to live and roam free,
it shines in the dark
and it grows within me

You're holding my hand
but you don't understand
So where I am going,
you won't be in the end

I'm dreaming in colours
of getting the chance
Dreaming of ( trying )
The perfect romance

In search of the door,
to open your mind
In search of the cure
of mankind

Help us we're drowning
So close up inside

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
Why does it have to kill
the idea of who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
How will the lights die down,
telling us who we are?

I'm searching for answers
not given for free
You're hurting inside,
is there life within me?

You're holding my hand,
but you don't understand
You're taking the road
all alone in the end

I'm dreaming in colours
No boundaries are there
I'm dreaming the dream.
and I'll sing to share

In search of the door,
to open your mind
In search of the cure
of mankind

Help us we're drowning
So close up inside

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
Why does it have to kill
the idea of who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
How will the lights die down,
telling us who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
Why does it have to kill
the idea of who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain
down on Utopia?
How will the lights die down,
telling us who we are?

Why does it rain?

OMG!!!!! i am so so in love with this song.




some people should learn how to respect.

Leave it to Kanye West to produce one of the most infamous moments in VMAs history before the 2009 show was even an hour old. It happened after Taylor Swift’s victory in the Best Female Video category for “You Belong With Me,” which beat out Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).” Just moments after Swift accepted the Moonman and began her acceptance speech, West stormed the stage, taking the microphone from Swift to announce Beyoncé deserved the award.

VMAs 2009 in photos: Kanye’s stage invasion, Madonna pays tribute to MJ and more.

“Thank you so much!” Swift began. “I always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day, but I never actually thought it would have happened. I sing country music so thank you so much for giving me a chance to win a VMA award.”

Before she could continue, West broke in. “Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!” Kanye shouted to a mortified Swift and the speechless audience. And as quickly as he ran onstage — MTV cut away to show Pink applauding Taylor, and when they flashed back to Swift, West already had the mic in his hand — he was off, leaving a shocked Swift in his wake.

Everyone at the Radio City Music Hall looked stunned, as the cameras captured an astonished and horrified Beyoncé still in her seat. Soon after, the audience gave a standing ovation in support of Swift. To add insult to injury, after Kanye handed the microphone back to Swift, her time was up, and MTV cut to a video featuring Tracy Morgan and Eminem. Minutes after the incident went down, MTV Chairman and CEO Judy McGrath was feverishly typing into her phone when Diddy came up for a chat. Topic of conversation? What else but West. “Like Diddy just said, ‘It’s rock & roll,’ ” McGrath commented to RS. “And the applause for [Taylor] will be louder.”

Look back at Kanye’s other awards-show outbursts, and the most famous stage invasion in rock history.

According to sources at the VMAs, Swift was seen hysterically crying backstage after Kanye’s outburst, making it convenient that the first part of her performance of “You Belong to Me,” which immediately followed the acceptance speech, was prerecorded. (Swift emerged from the subway exit and performed atop a cab outside the venue live.) Wale, who is serving as MC for the house band, told the crowd, “You can’t fault a man for speaking his mind,” which was promptly met by boos from the Radio City Music Hall crowd. According to our sources inside Radio City, Kanye was promptly tossed from the VMAs after interrupting Swift’s speech and headed to West Village haunt the Spotted Pig. “I’m assuming based on the amount of Hennessey I saw [West] drink that he was not all there,” Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump told Rolling Stone backstage at the show.

Follow Rolling Stone’s live blog and all our VMAs coverage here.

Near the end of the show, Beyoncé invited Swift onstage to have the acceptance speech she deserved while picking up her own Moonman for Video of the Year. Later, West posted an apology on his blog:

“I’m sooooo sorry to taylor swift and her fans and her mom. I spoke to her mother right after and she said the same thing my mother would’ve said. She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she’s in the bleachers! …………………… i’m in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!……………. beyonce’s video was the best of this decade! I’m sorry to my fans if I let you guys down! I’m sorry to my friends at mtv. I will apologize to taylor 2mrw. welcome to the real world! everybody wanna booooo me but i’m a fan of real pop culture! No disrespect but we watchin’ the show at the crib right now cause … well you know! i’m still happy for taylor! Boooyaaawwww! you are very very talented! I gave my awards to outkast when they deserved it over me… that’s what it is!! i’m not crazy yall, i’m just real. Sorry for that! I really feel bad for taylor and i’m sincerely sorry! Much respect!!”

i have been meaning to post this up a long time ago when I heard of this incident. the VMAs seemed to have happened ages ago but i am still sore over what happened to taylor swift. poor girl. i dont think she expected this to happen at all. in fact, i dont think anyone did. her first award and she didnt even get to finish her acceptance speech. but i have new found respect for beyonce though. so thoughtful of her to call taylor up on stage to finish her acceptance speech which was "conviniently" intercepted by kanye. being young and innocent, i dont think taylor knew how to handle the raw situation. kanye maybe a talented artist (and i dont even like to listen to his music ) but in my heart he has definitely earned the award for being a first class jerk, boosting taylor's ranking in my favourite artists list higher and higher. despite being 32, i think his maturity level scores way below someone who is half his age. cheers to taylor, and beyonce!




Blue and bluer

Sunday, September 27, 2009 . 10:28 PM

sighz. after one week of enjoying life at home, i will be leaving home for the back-to-basics lifestyle in campus. i never knew home could be so comforting. and yesh. even after what seems like eternity, i have yet to call my hostel my home. unlike some coursemates who always refer to our dingy little rooms as a home. the only home i ever knew is the one in section 14, pj. anywhere else would either be a hostel or a hotel. well, with the expection of the house in ipoh. and to think i have to start mugging again. i can only imagine myself...perhaps 4 years from now. no social life, reserved and totally career-oriented. then i will be mankind's saddest case in human form. 

SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ! SIGHZ!

dark dark day

Monday, August 17, 2009 . 5:08 PM

it's a dark dark day. here i am, in a stuffy room, coughing like there's no tomorrow, with the burden of so much work on me, disappointed with my electric circuits marks, dreading the marks of the rest of the subjects, already fearing the worst for my finals, down with illness and feeling like i am falling into an abyss.

i was supposed to upload some picture from my phone but looking at how the day turned out i dont think i am in the mood for anything but emoness. sighz.


frustrations galore!

Thursday, August 6, 2009 . 10:15 PM

I can't imagine a day that could get worse. In a matter of a few hours, I have been getting frustrated time and time again. And it's not by the same problem. Things could get worse. I know. But still. Let me rant on...

It's a damned Thursday night. I have got to hand up a tutorial which was given yesterday. And I am still quite blur about the topic due to all the sudden holiday frenzy in the middle of class while it was being taught. Then there is this dumb TITAS presentation coming up next Friday and one of my members are rushing me for the info to be put on Power Point. I haven't even started researching. And then there is this stupid Ethnic Studies test on a bloody Sunday. Which means I have to cancel my plans for that weekend. Heck, I don't even think I get to go home. Shite! And worst of it all is the Bakti Siswa that I was pretty much forced to join. It's boring as hell and nearly quite full of obnoxious people. Haiz.

Now I am left alone in the room while most of them are out there being entertained by the some Lantern Festival preparation event. Not that I mind the privacy. I crave solitude sometimes. It's just that I don't like being left out of the bunch. With my education background I think I am already the odd one out compared to the rest. Double haizzes.


Random moments in upm

UPM is closed for a week. Mid-semester break brought forward. Had to cancel a lot of plans. Don't like. Loving being home though. Posting some random pictures that has been rotting away in my phone.



A shot of us wearing blue. Lolz. The greatest catch is that we didn't plan it. Great minds really do think alike....

A shot of Ming Yue and Ka Yin while we were walking back from DKAP after missing our bus. Actually I took a lot of photos walking back to our hostel. But ended up deleting most of them coz the were blurry....



Me and Ming Yue being posers during course night. It was probably the only picture I took that night. Sighz.
Okies. I am officially bored. I dont feel like studying. Most probably going for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince tomorrow at KLCC. Hope things work out. I have been dying to get out of the house. =D

Such an emotional roller coster. Emoness and happiness took turns to overwhelm me today. I was home for a while. So that is a reason in itself...which speaks for itself. Lolz. But it's late now. And Yi Wen is here waiting for dance pratice to start. So I kinda have to go. =D.


i thank god for fridays.

Is there a better day than Friday? I don't think so. I have always loved Fridays. Now I love it even more. Well, I was stupid enough to take afternoon classes on this day but it's alright. My Friday schedules are not as tight compared to other weekdays. A while ago,I climbed through a gap in the fence behind my hostel, then walked to McDonald's from there. It's like a 15 minute walk but at least it's good food we're talking about. Not the hellish glob they serve in K10. Ugh. Lucky enough for me the sun is not so...erm...sunny. Lolz. It wasn't skin burning laaaa. Although I am already ten shades darker from walking around campus.

Lemme think of what to do when I get home tomorrow afternoon. Ming Yue and Lih Horng are tagging along on my journey home because one of them needs to get a laptop from Digital Mall. Then they might be taking a cab back to campus. Lolz. I get to stay home! Yeay! I sound so sadistic, I know.

I'm listening to The Wreckers now. Their songs remind of my guitar, which at the moment has broken strings and probably covered in dust. My hands are feeling itchy already. I want to play my guitar!! I need to brush up on my skills (although they are not much to brag about).

Tired. I have class in about 30 minutes time. What a drag. And I have to choreograph my group for next Sunday night. Crap. I have to go watch more Micheal Jackson videos....


home is where my heart is

Just started my third week in UPM. I went home for the weekend and when I reached the doorstep of my hostel room, I felt like turning around and catch a cab to go home. I suppose being close to home has its disadvantages after all. Since I get to go home every weekend, I'll never be able to completely get over my homesickness. I have to learn how to overcome this. I cant get homesick every single week right? Right.

Due to my irregular class schedules and ridiculous assignments (which are piling up by the way), I would hardly have the time go online, download songs, etc etc. So sad.

I'm already tired. And it's only 5 in the evening. I think its the medication working its magic. Need to go take a nap. Will try to update as regularly as I can. =D


First post from UPM

Monday, July 6, 2009 . 10:34 PM

Hi. It's been a long time since I posted. Actually it's not that long. But feels long to me because I am away from home. Every second away from home creates a dull ache in my heart. I am strong enough to face the world on a daily basis, but in the dead of the night when only the sound of my heartbeat can be heard, I feel hollow inside. Being away from home has been a tough experience for me. Sighs. I suppose it's a chapter of life everyone has to go through.

I made quite a few new friends here though. They are the ones I am comfortable with. Some of them are not in the same course. They said we will remain close friends come whatever. But I know pretty soon when our university life gets a little bit busy and hectic, I will become nothing more than a blur memory...

In the meantime, here are some pictures I took throughout orientation week here...




Front from left to right: Yin Ying, me, Hui Juan, Yi Ling. Back from left to right: Ming Yue and my roommate, Lih Horng.

Guess who?

From left to right: Yi Ling, Hui Juan, Lih Horng, and me


Yi Ling and I. We always have the same "peace" sign when we take pictures. Lolz.


Yi Ling again. Quite photogenice isnt she?



There's me, Yi Yeong and Yin Ying. As of today, Yin Ying and Yi Yeong are roommates. Yin Ying's previous roommate left to join the army hostel. So brave!! =D

Hui Juan. Yi Ling, Lih Horng and Ming Yue before going for our campus walk...which was a complete waste of time. We spent hours and hours walking in circles under the scorching sun.



Alumni night during orientation week. I dont remember the names of everyone in the picture except for Hui Juan, Yi Ling and also Yin Ying.

A blurry picture taken on the bus. At the front there's Ming Yue, me and Yi Yeong. Second row has Yi Ling peeking from her seat and Hui Juan. I don't know who the other girl is. Lolz.




This is probably the best picture I've got during the orientation week. These people are the definition of fun in the hostel. Without them, there would be no joy and spirit. But I'm too lazy to name everyone in the picture. Tired.
So there. My first week in UPM, away from my confortable bed and Astro. Away from the water heater, air-cond room and also my privacy. This lifestyle could still use some getting used to.
