Merdeka Day anyone???

So its my first Merdeka Day here in Malaysia...and a few more to come in the next few years...decided to take off to my good old kampung to get some RnR and also to soothe my grandparents hearts...-according to them im wasting my time going back to Singapore every other weekend-...so here i am in the middle of the forest...-with the only internet connection around here (thank the Almighty for a savvy grandpa like mine)-...hacking away at the keyboards in the mist of the mountains...

And i thought i could get away from it all...apparently not...the local gossip here moves faster than a KTM train running through to Seremban...the small town politics and what-nots...its funny...if you look at it from a different perspective and as an outsider...

What's new in the kampung house...well my grandparents got themselves a new DVD/CD player...(dont pray pray ok...)...a new living room set...a new CAT!...its beautiful...still a mighty little playful kitten...she got scolded last night for trying to claw the speakers to the hi-fi and hid its head underneath the tv console as my grandma tried to spank her...hehehehe...it was a funny sight...pandai lak tu merajuk and buat muka sedih...dah merajuk terus duduk pat atas sofa and terlelap...wahakz...notty...i had to restrain myself from trying to call her Chincin...my first ex-bf's cat...looked exactly alike...only different sex and different in size...she's a little darling...don't know what got into my grandma to pick up that wee little thing at the market...

I'm supposed to be leaving tonight but my grandma insisted that i stay another night at her house...so its another night and a rush out of the house tomorrow morning for my 12 noon class...im supposed to be doing some research in school but thanks to the availability of the internet here i don't have any problems...

Thanks for the well wishes from some of you...im still hacking away with a newly developed cough...and my flu is still lingering...hope its not what i think it is...well...enough of my blabbering for now...more this weekend maybe...

Busy, busy, busy...that's all there is these days

So...another week of non-blogging activity...my life is becoming so sad...anyways...I'm done with most of my tests...got back my History mid-term paper...and i failed...i've never failed history so this is a big blow to my EGO...

At least the drama mid-term paper was do-able...so was ILS...now im gonna have to sit for the IRK subjects...-yuck-...not really good at it...-haiz-...well i cant have my cake and eat it too right???...

Last week went off like a blur...not much studying done but a lot of going out...last monday stayed @ home celebrating my youngest bro's 6th birthday...yes...my not-so-baby brother is now six...my mom gave him one of those toy laptops for him and guess what he said?..."Yeay! Now i have my own laptop and i can check my emails!!!"...Geez...kids these days...spent the rest of the evening watching another boring rendition of the National Day Parade...but the Singapore Idol made up for the boring-ness...

Tuesday i got to meet up with my honey...he took half the day off to spend time with moi...he was thrilled to receive my birthday present to him...the blue nike shirt fit him to a T...i was happy nonetheless to spend the day with him...

Wednesday...hmmm...what did i do???...I think i stayed home...Thursday i went out to smoke sheesha @ Mazmazza with some of my gerlfrens...-pics will be posted up after i write this entry-...brought Kak Eka with me...hope they didn't scare her...hehehehe...

Friday got off on a slow start...well not really...met up with you-know-who again...then off i went with Linda to International Plaza or something to meet up with one of my old schoolfriends, Hayati...boy...she's changed a lot...so pretty now...compared to when she was such a tom-boy then...met Linda's uncle...he made us both a business proposition...feasible...-InsyaAllah-...

Saturday...tuition again...then off i went to Causeway Point...went to Isrida...got my roomies pretty glittery rings...not forgetting one for myself...-or 2 more like it-...then off to Orchid Country Club 4 some cue ball...-look out for the pics too!-...with Linda again...hehehe...so nice to have someone who lives a couple of blocks away from me...

So the rest of Sunday i just bummed...till it was time for me to leave home again...

Lazy Bum...

Yeah...so sue me for not blogging so often...yes...i'm a self-professed lazy bum...what am i supposed to be doing this week?...study!...i've done everything BUT study...hehehe...just blame it on the national day weekend...the singapore idol...my younger bro's bdae party...and u-know-who...he's starting to sound a bit like Voldermort ain't it?...

So...the weekend was great...tutoring went by like a flash on saturday...im growing more and more attached to these kids as each session goes by...its gonna be hard if i ever leave them...and my youngest brother's birthday was great...lots to eat...all delicious and yummy...plenty of ice-cream to go ard...mini-pizzas, laksa, grilled chicken...ok i wont drone on cos you'll all get jealous...ehehehehee...and today i finally got to meet my honey...yeah yeah...my new honey...i've done considerably well emotionally...this is it..another shot...another chance at happiness...-don't blow it this time-...

So i read today...Neil Humprey's commentary on Singapore in his first book, Notes from an EVEN Smaller Island. It is a fresh and bold perspective on the singaporean way of life...so true are his words...our singaporean youth today are THE most pampered youth in the world cos all we do is enjoy economic growth...cmon...even the financial crisis isn't as bad as when you compare it to the youth that go through civil war and strife...enjoy your youth people and please...wake up and smell the roses once in a while...don't be so driven JUST to achieve...build and keep friendships...be more street smart...and go read NEIL HUMPREY'S book for more info!...

I have yet to complete that reading...and i still havent done ANY revision for my tests next week...-bugger-...have i written enough now???...No...guess not...have to clock in the hours i havent been blogging...

So love.. .-yeah that topic again-...is elusive to us at times...sometimes its right under our nose and we don't realise it...what do you do?...desperation reeks...the male species can smell it miles away...just live life single for a while...trust me...you'd rather be single than be attached...'cos being attached means A LOT of sacrifices...now that i have to deal with the long-distance thing...-again-...it really seems like a drag...why now? i suddenly ask the question...well...for one, i've quit not taking a chance...cos i want to live life without regrets anymore...living life with regrets is a life not worth living for...trust me...i hope i help someone with my words of wisdom here...-gives a round of hugs-...everyone needs one of those...

Remember: Boyfriends/Girlfriends come and go but your true friends always stick with you by and by...

Okay...guess that covers a lot...i've had so many things on my mind lately...my erain is a clutter...oh...and now that the Olympics is back...i've added a link...same goes for Sg Idol...and cld someone please tape the episodes of Sg Idol for me puhleez...Linda perhaps? ;) eheheheheh...

Toodles!

your heart she/he will be the most happy person
in the world. You need someone who shows you
that you are special and it makes you feel
good to see that you are loved. She/He shall
know that you could easily get another
girl/boyfriend but you wont as long as you
love him. when she/he hurts you you will hurt

and immediately (try to) forget him

Hoooollllliiiiiddddaaaayyyyyy!!!!!

So how long has it been since i've blogged?...A week?...Maybe longer... Anyway i'm glad to know that there are so many people that have been keenly reading my blog with much interest...im now back for a one week break...yipee...more time in Singapore and in time to spend National Day back home...

I had a great time at the Ummatic Week...the Sister's Cultural night was a BLAST!..i had never had so much fun before...-even though i sprained my ankle about an hour before the it was time for us to perform, and i still smiled and danced the night away-...the Singapore performance was great...although i pulled off my hood and my bandanna at the same time and i forgot the lines to the intro of the poem...but all went good...everybody misses training together and all the fun times we had...and DAMN- there were a lot of hot girls there that night!...All of us could take off our hijab and just let our hair down...literally since it was an all-girls affair...they locked out all the guys and we were all having a rocking good time...-sighs-...wish i could relive those moments all over again...

We all had to manage training time and studying for our mid-term tests...it was quite stressfull with training all night and having to wake up at an ungodly hour to go for classes...we all pulled thru...thank God for that...

Life is going back to normal for all of us now i guess...i didn't come home for a week...it explains why i have been so quiet for so long...no immediate access to the internet makes it difficult for me to blog...i'm still shaking from the excitement of the Ummatic week...

The stalls...the arabic songs and dancing and merrymaking outside the stalls...the funny looking mascot we had...it was like being transported to another place...it was travelling without even having to board the plane...

My love life is pretty much boring...nothing much to say...only that the guy i've been seeing regularly...his mom had a heart attack last night and he's been at the ICU for God knows how long...i hope his mom will be okay...wish i was there to comfort him...

I'm tired...

Next time then...
