    FIRST: that face is still in my head. OMFG
    SECOND: hang out was fun today
    THIRD: i'm getting emotional these days. i need to cope with life. sigh
    FOURTH:i'm still feeling -less
    FIFTH: i'm still pissed at the bus driver. i'm hesistating to say this. but. FUCK. friday was the ugliest in my history. lost my 10 bucks in the earlier part of the day. I think Khai was pissed cause i couldnt handle the ball right during the league. then the fckin bus door shut on me and i was outside the bus and my bag was dangling inside the bus. and people on the bus just fckin looked and i nearly showed them the middle finger but i resisted and showed a mfing face and that stupid fishhead guy at last pressed the doorbell. THE BUS DRIVER IS FCKING STUPID. I DONT WANT TO SAY THAT FOUR LETTER WORD BUT I CANT HELP IT. doesnt his freaking 75 bus not have a camera to monitor the door behind. was he like freaking blind? shithole okay.

    i've never been this angry since like last year. That fcking bus driver just burst my veins. as what benji would say, HIS WHOLE FAMILY DIE.

    st: the ball burst in mid air. a once in a life time thingy. awesome. the boys became commentator, all started off from amar. haha. it was crap. then my team played league with amar's group(mutual trust) and Ozy became the commentator. the funniest part: He called khai RONALDO. I swear i was like..'what?'

    ah, overall friday is just so shit. i cant help it that i shed a tear. AAAAAAAAAARH!

    we took pic via webcam today. shidz, post it to me soon eh?thnx.
    shi hong wanted to come to my house.NOT.
    and sarah: Tan Shi Hong ah, clever sia.

    ok, i got excited so the 6 of you, here's the meaning to your bdays:

    Salmah:You are always curious and responsive to changes. Routine life is not the way you choose to live. Traveling is your favorite hobby because excitement is what you are after. Your Love, You will not stand being around the one you dislike. Your love comes and goes quickly. You can be deeply in love but soon after you will be looking around for the next one.

    Sarah & Faza:You are great in managing everything in your life and this is how you gain respect from others. Because of this quality, you sometimes feel that you are better than the rest. Extreme confidence might lead you to the wrong path. You are a free bird and want to lead your own life. Your Love, You love life is rather different from others'. When you are in love, nothing can stop you. You may often fight with your partner but, soon after that, you will make up in a way that surprises others.

    Shida: You are great in managing everything in your life and this is how you gain respect from others. Because of this quality, you sometimes feel that you are better than the rest. Extreme confidence might lead you to the wrong path. You are a free bird and want to lead your own life. Your Love, You love life is rather different from others'. When you are in love, nothing can stop you. You may often fight with your partner but, soon after that, you will make up in a way that surprises others.

    Ruz:You are friendly, humorous and full of energy. You are open-minded and do not care for minor details. Your weak point is your hot temper. Your Love, You are willing to start off in one-sided love affairs because you strongly believe that you will eventually win his/her heart. On the other hand, once you are together, you always want to do things your way, which is often the fire starter. You usually run in and out of love quickly.

    Hakim: You can trust your sixth sense. Life is exciting so routine job is not your interest. You have great ideas and fantastic imagination. You often feel tired of things and people around you. Your Love, You can tell what's in the mind of another person just from looking into his/her eyes. You are paranoid and jealous and these are the cause of fights between you and your lover. Sometimes the thing you believe in is just your imagination.

    See, i'm so kind.HAHA. tell me whether its true or not yeah? tag tag.

    Facebook Application (What Does Your Birthday Means?)

    Mine is September 16th.

    Based on your birthday ...
    ''You always follow the good and the right instead of listening to your heart. Another word, you are a perfectionist. You care for every word people say about you. You often seen isolated while you are, by nature, curious and a dreamer who is ready to get over the edge to make your dream comes true. Your Love, You often fall in love with a person who is much different from you, in age and other aspects. Your relationship grows on friendship. Love at fist sight is not your style.''


    Well, all that I can say is that its all true but I dont know about the perfectionist part...hahaha
    Oh I counted cells today till I was nearly cock eye. ohmy...the aftermath is...your eyes still want to be crossed. lol. imagine counting up to 200 cells for 3 times. omg, i know right. Its frustrating shit. And som stupid mosquitoes feated on my finger and left feet. Next time I should put a sign that my blood is poisonous.

Have I told you I love kampung trip, call me very traditional blah blah but I just love the ambience there. =) And there's alot of things you can do there in which you cant do in Singapore, like having your own farm, kebun, whatever it is. I know I am going to go back there for a holiday...I just love it there. (:

    Happy Chinese New Year to all who is celebrating it tomorrow!

    I'll be out of country tomorrow, for the whole day cause we're having gathering with our Msian relatives, yada yada. But when I get home there'll be IPC project to rush on since presentation is on Wednesday. SIGH* Blame Dr Kueh for informing us like..only 2 weeks before. what the bleah.

    Dad was pissed at me last night cause I didnt cook for him Maggi. Lol. He didnt let us watch tv for long. Oh, well. At least I caught a glimpse of Daniel Henney and Jet Li. lol. Then, I have strange dreams again. Maybe I'm just beat. (:

    Today we dont have special dishes like every Sundays we had. Mum cooked fish soup, so not my favourite. And sis made fruit and veg salad. (its her turn to be bullied).

    OK, I'm getting back to MOL and I know this is the most boring post I have ever typed. And I need to get back to downloading songs to fill up my boredom for tomorrow. (:

    Love everyone always.

    today, most of the girls were not in the mood for SnW. Just now came a point of time where I just stood and got confused, my system was malfunctioning, and I cant bring myself to do anything. It was scary. Hmm, I believe I'll bring myself up again.

    So the highlight for today was that, at one of the goalposts, directly at the centre of the goalpost, there were cat faeces. I noticed the smell when we were having like warm up sessions but I didnt know where it came from. So when the boys started their leagues, one of the team scored a goal into that unlucky goalpost and it ran over the faeces.Thats when the goalkeepr realised it was there..omg, i cant stop laughing.ok, back to the story. then Ghazali was like, 'ee,got shit!'

    HAHAHAHAHAHA. it was so funny cause the players didnt know except him and those playing near him. SO so so, the goalkeeper at the other side, I believe it was sean, used his hands to handle the ball..EWWWWWWW. it took them a while for the word to spread and then everyone was trying their best not to get their hands in contact with the ball. it was super funny. haha.

    After them, was us the girls and we were like, 'WE WANNA CHANGE THE BALL! EWWW...' hahaha.

    STAR PLAYER: NURUL FATIN!

    oh, there was another avalanche. Tsuraiya fell on top of Sarah and Fatin somehow fell on top of Tsuraiya. woah, when there's Kay Sarah, you cant escape an avalanche. XD
    joking.
    i felt so good after laughing. maybe i should laugh more. =)

    went Gombak with mum and sis to buy a dress for Monday kampong trip. then dad fetched us with my uncle's van, went to hydroponics farm for fun then went home.

    i cant wait for everything to be over.i'm so overworked

    i HATE being sick..hmmm, my bods freakin sore.and my nose is like the major problem that leads to malfunctioning of my system. was giddy in the morning, slept in and missed IPC lect. and came at 11am cause I thought MB tut was at 11. so when I came, it officially ended. oh man, so paiseh.
    But i reasoned it out with Marta. She was the one who told my I got a slight fever. MB prac was fun as usual. DR Alex is a really awesome man. Waited for SL and the four of us had a convo about Devi. Well, its complicated. I just hope she doesnt get like...you know, expelled. When you are in LSCT means that you are capable of doing such stuffs. You dont excel because you dont try to excel.

    IDK if I can play soccer tmr. I really want to. Oh well, I should just hide my pain.bahaha.
    i'm good at that.HOHO

    Take care, me

    Today is one of the most tiring day ever. Just reached home. And it's like another rotten day.

    Just when I thought I got the hang of the prac test, I realised that my concentration calculation went wrong. It so didnt make my day. As usual, we went to eat at alumni where I saw this super smart guy. I have fetish for smart looking guys. (: Then second break me and SL sat near the vending machine there and I saw my cousin. No elaboration. Then, I went through lect notes while singing cause I was bored to death when I heard someone calling me, when I turned, I swear I thought it was some sesat chinese guy and he was waving at me. 2nd glance was a shocking glance. It was PAKCIK DHUHA. haha. The worst thing was that he texted me, 'why you shock just now seeing me? as if i am one of the Jonas.' omg, even my toes cackled loudly. Jonas look way way way better..muahahaha.

    then I bumped into him again at co-op. He beat me with a stack of paper. {o.0) -ekkk. childish. (oo)

    went to makan place to accompany addie eat and bumped into yy and kenneth. So we started talking about all sorts of possible things we could think of. I was accused of having a boyfriend and not telling. in which i dont. haha. like, seriously. I'm a good girl gone bad and I'm still good.

    I decided not to sing for the mv cause it'll be mafan to go back and forth town. So, I'll still be in the mv but doing something else. Ian's friends (they are cool cool guys with tattoos) are really awesome. So what we did was film them here and there for the MV. Is it cool or what?! =D
    Seeing them jam is super tired. Jamming is more tired i guess. And I thought I will be partially deaf when I get out of the place. hmmm, proves me wrong. But I'm still a little deaf. haha.

    OH! CHECK OUT INFATUATION BY JONAS BROTHERS (Japan BonusTrack). I thought it'll sound funny cause they sing the chorus of the song in JAPANESE but it's really good. There's no English accent in the Jap words pronunciation. Awesome.

    OK, I'm on my bed now, my life's batt is going flat soon. Oops, my cardiac sphincter just opened. lol. I'm glad I'm making an effort to be happy. (: Pray for me that it'll get better in time.

    Sis and me have the same problem --> we dont know who to share our problems with. Like I said in the previous post, you maybe a best friend, but not the right person for me to share my problems is. sigh. what a life.

    I've gotta get my inside out
    if you only knew how i feel.
    -menudo
    my days havent been well. (: But its okay, I'll manage it. Putting up a brave front isnt really a problem to me. Now, I need to brace myself to feel normal. I always think that I'm another small girl getting confused with life and whats happening around when I am in this kind of predicament. And I realise its hard for me to pour my thoughts to someone else, even mum at times. So I tend to bottle up my feelings. I'm very good at this bad thing. I know one day there will be someone who I can pour my woes to. And I really hope she/he will come into my life pretty soon cause I cant really help myself. Well, I tried and I am still trying to be independent. Not that I dont trust my current girls and best friends, you've got to understand that. But sometimes you'll feel that you need the right person to share some confidential stuffs with. And its not any of your best friends.
    I hope none of you get offended. (:

    What song do you hate the most?

    I've gotta get my inside out

    -menudo
    my days havent been well. (: But its okay, I'll manage it. Putting up a brave front isnt really a problem to me. Now, I need to brace myself to feel normal. I always think that I'm another small girl getting confused with life and whats happening around when I am in this kind of predicament. And I realise its hard for me to pour my thoughts to someone else, even mum at times. So I tend to bottle up my feelings. I'm very good at this bad thing. I know one day there will be someone who I can pour my woes to. And I really hope she/he will come into my life pretty soon cause I cant really help myself. Well, I tried and I am still trying to be independent. Not that I dont trust my current girls and best friends, you've got to understand that. But sometimes you'll feel that you need the right person to share some confidential stuffs with. And its not any of your best friends.
    I hope none of you get offended. (:

    I'm not bad to that extent.

    How do you flush the toilet in public?
    uh..duh. who doesnt?

    Do you wear your seatbelt in the car?
    seriously,not all the times. ONly if there is some checks going on.

    Do you have a crush on someone?
    truth, yes

    Name one thing you worry about running out of.
    Fuel

    What famous person do you (or other people) think you resemble?
    Oprah Winfrey, only without the money

    What is your favorite pizza topping?
    Ham, pineapple, tomato, cheeseee!

    Do you crack your knuckles?
    I know its bad but yes, I do

    What song do you hate the most?
    Low (flo-rida) or any rap songs

    Did just mentioning that song make it get stuck in your head?
    kinda...when sarah kept singing it all the way to school.

    What are your super powers?
    Sometimes I'm a psychic.HAHA

    S.O.S

    i need someone to talk to. I dont know whats making me have all these temperamental problems. I fling at the smallest thing and I wont hesitate to be rude. The problem with me is I know whats happening but I cant seem to stop myself from getting pissed at the slightest thing and sound rude to anyone. I dont know if I'm stress cause I've kept too much to myself. But if i were to tell someone, can she/he be trusted? If I cant get anyone, i just need to cry on someone's shoulder. I just need to. Whats happening to me? I've never been this way before. Irritated. Angry. Sad. Frustrated. This thing I'm having, it comes and goes. I'm bothered.

    what do i do?

    to someone:

    it isnt too late. its not the end of the world. IT might be limited but dont worry, if you know your mistakes, learn from it, you'll be alright.

    At LSCT co-op now, using SarahL.'s lappy. the wind is incredibly strong and it 'pushed' my head. oh..sigh. ANW
    today is full of laughter. my class was like crapping badly. Mun Wah, Thomas, Me, Sarah, Sk, Tiara, Benji and min went for lunch at the new eatery. Before that Mun Wah was posing like some macho body builder. it was SUPERDUPER funny! then, they bugged me to teach them some sign language...and they ask if middle finger is one of the sign language. LOL.
    So what happened during lunch was that mayonnaise dropped on Min's hp screen and spontaneously, he licked his hp screen. How disgusting! Everyone cracked into laughter. Mun Wah played the staring game, looking at all of us eat.

    So crap la. Cant eat properly. Had ice kachang today cause i realised that i didnt bring enough money. And my class pon Physio lect except for the three of us.lol. it has always been that way,dude. (:

    OK. gtg. using someone's lappy over a period of time is not good. (:
    and oh yeah, i broke a beaker today.

    RANDOM.
    movies to watch:
    1. Curious Case Of Benjamin Button
    2. Ponyo On The Cliff (or whatever the stroy is called)
    3. Underworld Rise Of The Lycan

    Falling in love at first sight with vampires,werewolves and magic, all started from the series of books by Darren Shan and American Werewolves. I kept reading and watching them. Then came the Edges (three brothers/wizards) series. Then Blood Bound and its other stories. Then, twilight.

    I dont know why Harry Potter doesnt really leave an impact on me. I think I am obsessed with vampires. hee. gonna watch the documentary on the real world vampire(is it real?). that guy who claims to be the real world vamp drinks blood and has fangs/sharp teeth.

    drinks blood.ew.

    watched the documentary on the world shortest mum. God is a miracle. Eventhough her daughter was born with some complications and may inherit her condition (dwarfism). And her fiance taking care of her and their baby while trying to secure a job. This shows that everyone has a true love. :)

    doesnt mean you are ugly, short, handicapped, fat, weird or whatever, you are not loved. It'll come sooner or later. Its a matter of time. Though sometimes reality might hurt a little. But its life. None of us is spared.

    Bought new skinnys for tomorrow. I havent got any denim coloured jeans, so i brought one.

    'Izzah Fathin vs 'Izzah Amalina

    same name. and mistaken.

    Funny thing today, i thought sis smsed me to say she's coming to OH today. So i was like damned pissed cause first she said tomorrow then she said today. Then, I asked 'her', why she use other people's no. to sms me. She said thats her no. So I told my mum. Thought that sis brought some kind of a prepaid card and didnt tell us. then i smsed 'her' back- ibu says ur ass.

    'she' replied, 'Oh, okay. LOL. anyway hakim asked me to say hi sleng to you if i see you today.'

    I read the message a few times. Then i was like...'HAKIM?'. So I called 'her'. 'Izzah Amalina picked up the phone and i muttered under my breath,shit. HAha. So, all along she knows that i thought that my sis smsed me and played along with the smses i sent! lol. so i was like saying sorry 10000000000 times NOT!haha.But i did say it a couple of times. and sorry again, dear. I acted like some slenge bacen. haha. and sorry i cant be there to show you around too.

    ok. gotta go prepare for soccer tomorrow. and fetch my bro from school. happy thursday everyone.
