im proud to say i just wasted my beautiful saturday morning away, as i was supposed to be cleaning up my study table, which, by the bossing of my mum, would lead to the cleaning of the whole room instead, yet since waking up at 11... ive not done anything productive just yet...

dad appeared on the papers today for his Turning 50 Reunion event in M'cca 2 weeks ago.. and so did this laptop im using right now.. haha.. check out Star Metro pg 14, Saturday May 28th... :P cheers!

T.G.I.F

thank god its friday!! that thought kept running through my mind throughout my whole outing to 1u today...

The day started off with teacher's day in school, kembara was organizing the telematch for the teachers so i was station assistant, apart from filling balloons and folding newspapers for my station early in the morning, ive only gone a few shades darker.. well, after the presentations in the hall and stuff, hung around school for abit cleaning up and stuff, then had en.zol send me home...

as soon as i got back, i was rushing my ass off, little did i know that ben already gone home early from school, and by the time i was eating my fish porridge, ben was already about to leave for 1u, sis left for gym 5 minutes too early, knowing ben's house is just a stone throw away from mine, i took a (unbelievable) 1 minute bath, 30 second dress-up, and then ben's ride came along with eric and cy at approx 1.10, note, movie starts at 1.15...

i didnt know child's play seed of chucky was in the cinema for ages already, thinking it was a new release, i expected the cinema to be sandwich-packed, walking in, i saw a couple sitting on the top-most row, and a family sitting on the 2nd row, and considering my group had 8 people, the whole cinema 1 of TGV was "filled" by *if im not mistaken* 15+ people... and to make things worst, Child's Play Seed of Chucky is a mixture of BIG FLOP and Lame! imagine 9 bucks! gone just like that!... :p

After all the screaming and amusement of Chucky and co. , we then moved on to TGI Fridays where we pretty much spent our afternoon laughing, squeling, anything that would make the occupants of tables around (its around and NOT beside only!) present us with akward stares.. plus it was xr's birthday, so after all the fajitas, buffalo wings and my november sea breeze topped with "advice" from sanjay about flirting and playa-ing, the TGI guys got xr to stand on a chair and gave her a watering spray, as lame but amusing as it seems, they got her to sing a song with the spray, accompanied by the TGI's rendition of happy birthday, they then present her a choco mocha ice cream cake absolutely free (though eric thought the price of the cake was indirectly charged together with the service tax)... -.-"

This is part of a scenario of me and eric while he was checking out shirts in WH:
(noticing a WH staff was behind folding shirts)
Me: *with amplified voice* eh, eric, in jail, wat shirt colours do they have??
(shop staff turns to stare)
Eric: shut up
Me: no seriously, i heard inmates get alot of choices...
Eric: *tries hard to ignore my comments**chooses a shirt**turns to shop staff* erm, may i know where's the changing room..?
(shop staff points to direction of changing room.... still staring)
Me: eh eric! really... what colour shirts do they have???!!!
Eric: ok thanks...... *points to shirt resting on his arm* this is for guys raight??
Shop staff: yes...... *sudden sceptical look* why?????.....
Eric: *walks away*
Me: haha.. eric! she thinks you're an inmate!!*breaks into uncontrolable laughter*

that was one of the many crazy stuff we did there, and then of course after it all, i had another amusing scenario at home during dinner:
(note: conversations have been translated to english, mine from simple basic teochew, great-grandma's from ancient teochew with a thick accent)
(steps into the kitchen after ben's mum dropped me off. Grandma and great-grandma both having dinner)
Me: halloo "lau ma"...
G.grandma: faster eat! you just came back from work??
Me: yea, to earn money to buy the food you're eating now.. *grins*
G.grandma: where are your parents?
Me: still working laaaa
G.grandma: owh, they must earn alot every month! how much? 20 cents?(refering to back then)
Me: errr no... now they earn in thousands.. *laughs*
G.grandma: *laughs along* so your dad works for a malay company?
Grandma: *budges in* yea....
G.grandma: they captured him???*shows concern* (refering to back then when the chinese communist were at war with the malaysian police)
Grandma: NOla....... =.="*continues eating*
Me: errrrr.......... haha... =.=" *continues eating*
G.grandma: *laughs again*......

those were a few to almost sum up my wonderful Friday... Thank God Its Friday!!... cheers! :p

Physics : 41
Chemistry : 54
History : 53
Biology : 40
Moral : 53
Modern Maths : 56

sigh, there are few more coming out soon...

My results have already shown how much effort ive put into the mid-term examinations, although it may be common for fresh form 4s to be striking results such as these.. but i do have a clear mind that i couldve, no.. i shouldve done sooo much better..
Like what Pn.Khairiah said, if i study the way i did during PMR, id better think of failing..

Firstly, i would like to pinpoint that, to me, writing a blog isnt the easiest thing in the world, i have bad bad memory, so if i do find something to write about, by the time i get to this page, it'd be long gone.. so guys, please be patient...

Well, exams almost over now, it just struck me how fast time has passed since my last post about my meaningless collage of my prized possesions. Without a doubt, i have shat myself in the important papers.. watching everyone pulling off wonderful results isnt doing me any good.. therefore, i have solemnly vowed to myself that i will put my time-managment skills to the test and chart myself a time-table for the 2nd term.. who knoes how far it'll go.. i remember the last time i made myself a flimsy time-table, every column seemed like "rest-time" to me..

I read through a few blogs over the net the past few days, and i came across this Iraqi girl's blog, it amazes me how perfect and zesty her english was considering she stayed around down-town Baghdad where suicide bombing and american bombardment has become a daily routine there, i had fun reading her blog, in one paragraph she stated "Santa Claus'd better knock on my door before he comes in, for any breach of my private property without notice would put him face to face with a Kalashnikov", that sentence shows how cautious Iraqi people have become mainly due to the american occupation in major parts of Iraq and how the rebels have not made their tasks easier.. Neighbours walking to the cross-junction to get daily groceries in the middle of the chaotic town and being blown up by car-bombs or rocket propelled ammunitions have already been a norm ever since the reign of Saddam the tyrant has been toppled.. While we here are hoping for Xboxes and PSPs for christmas, im sure the people of Iraq have wished for nothing more than torchlights and rations... think about it...

On the other hand of war and terror, its Wesak today and well, tommorow's a holiday! :p
oh anyway, i spent half my day at my Buddhist Society selling ice-kacang!.. thats right! ice kacang!.. well, i guess its something like a family tradition, my parents have been selling ice kacang during Wesak for almost decade now, and me, from a defiant little boy wiping tables and collecting used bowls to bossing around the stall.. its tiring and the customers keep on coming, although everything at the carnival are being sold using coupons, i guess it was worth it.. i mean, come on... its Wesak! it happens ANNUALLY! yea.. so you actually buy a coupon book which is 10 ringgit and erm.. your money goes to the building fund of the society, we're gonna build a new building in BU, and then i can have my drumset there! haha.. well, so every single cent counts into the building fund.. i just got back btw, after cleaning up and playing with helium, you know breathing helium makes your voice sound like you've got an orange up your throat.. amusingly fun...

Lets just hope we wouldnt have to wait for too long to the appearance of my next post.. cheers!

yep.. thats right!! STEREOPHONICS!!... 

play with fayarrrrrrrr!!!! rrrooaaarrr!! 

The drummer's coat of arms....

Picture this, me, sitting at the dining table, my grandmother on my left, my great grandmother on my right, both watching me and my pizza, and i mean literally watching..

A few issues have been brought to mind these few days, firstly about the blog spamming, i feel its a real tragedy to be having someone posting negative comments about you and your friends, especially on chatterboxes and stuff.. i mean, its disgraceful, but not to the person who manages the blog, it is to the person who's posting all these comments with an anonymous profile, xr, constantly a victim of blog spamming, and i had it once before, but i dont take it seriously, because if that anonymous wants me to know how much of a negativity i am, i dont see why profiles need to be kept un-shown.. so, i usually take stuff like as pinches of salt, i mean why get worked up over it, if anonymous doesnt respect you and the site you share your thoughts and experiences with, then why respect anonymous and his comments? right?

My great-grandma is currently residing in my house again after being discharged from UH, and as unbelievable as it seems, she has becomed more lively, she talks more, she tells amusing stories about her "journeys" to weird places, she walks without much help and she eats more! im guessing the sodium and glucose mixed in her drips at the hospital. Dad was telling me the other day, when she fainted, she didnt practically faint, she was erm, kinda on her way to you know.. death, dad said when he saw her feet were pointing downwards instead of the normal sleeping position we usually aquire where our toes point upwards, toes pointing downwards when someone is "sleeping" are dues to muscle stiffness (theres a name for it, i totally forgot!) which can only happen, when someone is no more... alive... so dad said he gave himself 2 choices, its either great-grandma passes away right here on the bed of our maid's room, or she get sent immediately to the hospital and hopefully with MUCH luck, be saved, well.. the desicion was obvious and who couldve imagine how lively she could be after being discharged! If great-grandma was back in Muar last Tuesday, she couldve slipped into the endless process most widely labelled as Death.

Speaking about death, my g-grandma issue has gotten me thinking alot about the definition and meanings beyond words about death. where do we go after we're gone? i think i might be the only teenager to think so deeply into the foul, forbidden and unlucky thing called death. could death be like a dream, that when you're dead, you wake up again in a time and place as if you were sleeping and then you live your life, and then you die again, and the process goes on and on.. these are some things we'll never know.. probably because no one has ever experienced it fully and told us how it is.. so to know it is like a one way experiment, my thoughts and hypothesis about this issue in my head are waaayy more complicating than words can describe, no matter how much i soo wanna spill it out, its almost impossible to translate thoughts into words, especially on issues like this, imagine, someone or something with a life, that can move, communicate, talk, and then without warning, become something lifeless which can no longer move, nor talk.. its scary at the thought of it, but it is almost impossible to be shunned away from it in the walk of life, its just something we've got to accept, unexpectedly or not, shocking or not... as i said, its hard to understand words extracted from the mind.. p.s. im NOT thinking suicidal!!...

I just realised this could be my longest ever blog post, actually ive been planning this over pizza and lasagne at the dining table with my 2 grannies.. erm.. watching..

p.s. to anyone who has posted unruly comments on people's blogs and reading this, you should be really really ashamed of yourself!! you're probably jealous because we all have blogs and you dont! oh btw, u can try making one for yourself! its easy.. theres blogspot, xanga, blogdrive, freewebs, erm.. lots more which i cant really remember! but i suggest blogspot, cause im using it! haha.. and you can add those lil chatterboxes on your page so others can post idiotic insults and comments about you on it!! ya knoe what i mean raaaiigghhtt?? ;)

prepare for the worst, hope for the best....

I came home from school today to realize there wasnt any food on the dining table, only to find out that my great-grandmother who had been residing in my house for the past 1 week had been admitted into the emergency ward at UH.

being 90+, she wasnt looking really good the past few days, and her legs were constantly trembling, her auditory organs werent functioning well and she would usually stare blankly into thin air and at times, start talking to grandma bout her old past.. she even talks about her usual lifestyle when she was younger in the 1990s and that she wants to go home and pick buahs behind her wooden house back in Tangkak, Muar which she shifted away from 4 years ago..

this morning, my maid found her trembling again when she got off her bed and when grandma came home from the market with her breakfast, only to find her unconscious on the living room chair.. my grandma, in an obvious state of shock and fear, began panicking, which brought the attention of my dad, sister, and then.. of course, our neighbour..

Sadhu, thank god she's conscious now and taking in drips..
Prepare for the worst, Hope for the best...

there julie! there's us in our costumes... err.. i dun think u can see me clearly, im behind pn fatimah and pn fari... :p 

.......

sigh, everytime i wanna write about something, it just keeps disappearing in my head! ill try and dig it out though, for the sake of fulfilling the purpose of this blog as a blog and not solely on a chatterbox

First of all, i would like to remind myself and everyone in tmn sea who actually reads my blog that our mid-term examinations are just round the corner and i dunno if all of you are actually making an effort in preparing, for all i know, im the lazy, anti-books, computer-addict as always

tmn sea had our Temasya Sukan ke-29 last Saturday and from what i see, it wasnt as good a turnout as the years before, but this was the first time we held an invitational relay event where other schools would come and compete in for a small, half-palm sized medal, sadly only 3 schools came out of the god knows how many schools invited, our school formed teams A and B just to add the extra challenge in it
i collected 5 medals altogether and in addition to that, rumah hijau won overall champions AND the best house booth decoration, we missed out on the marching award which we highly expected to have won but well, gotta give the other houses a chance :P

and today was our HM's retirement day, it was sad that she had to retire so soon being 55 and above but im sure everyone wished she couldve stayed on much longer. we had our usual monday perhimpunan except this time, we pardoned the unpunctual students, just for the occasion. everyone moved to the hall right after the perhimpunan and as for me, i got changed in the bilik jahitan with my fellow half-naked (top and bottom) expedition dance members. i guess it was worth it though, our dance was labelled the best dance ever in the history of smk tmn sea, god knoes how far is it true, but the teachers were all asking lots of funny questions and stuff like where'd we get all our costumes and how' we get the bamboos, well basicly my part of the dance was being the bamboo bearer and we had to wear tight-fitting baju-melayus and a sarong or wtv u call it lah. and our dance was entitled Puteri Santubong, some princess jaga-ing the gunung in Sarawak, our expedition team actually when to the cultural village located right at the foot of the mountain, so i guess the inspiration pretty much spurns from there on..

i keep telling myself im supposed to write about my experiences about coincidences yesterday, but im just too errr malas ler.. btw dad's home with supper.. and i was going to stop writing anyways...

Screw it........

Im being freaking temperamental these few days, i suggest it has something to do with the f**king weather and the darn humidity! People asking me to go out when its freaking burning outside early in the mornings without noticing me in advance, thank god it rained for the past 2 days, but of all times, it had to rain during my kembara camp! Actually i dun mind it raining anyway.. its not like i was sleeping in a tent or somethin... (seniors getta sleep wherever they want except tents!) its just that the rain had to kill so many fun activities.. so.. screw the rain! grandma's been asking alotta unreasonable and illogical questions lately, actually she does it ever since god knoes when.. but i think its fast becoming a habit, so its really really annoying.. and my dog, he doesnt respond to me all that much anymore, its either he's deaf, or i'm being really paranoid about humans communicating with dogs.. and i have soooo many un-finished things to do like homeworks*sigh*, forms and stuff.. gets me all frustrated and stuff.. in addition to that, the junk food stock in my hse is fast depleting and i hardly have time nor money to replenish it.. which means, right now, i cant munch away... :( My frens?!, sigh... some of them are starting their centralised training for the upcoming msss which i.. sadly, didnt qualify.. and then theres this cf camp.. -_-" ..... owh and theres tuitions... on a holiday!!!! dammit!! Mr. Ashwin, my drums teacher suggested that i go for extra drum practices in SIM on my own, and he expects me to go twice this week.. mr. ashwin, i hardly have time to even have my breakfast, and i dun even have enuf cash for half hour of drum-renting.. plus! ill be practising alone??! i mean come on... wheres the fun in that?!.. but somehow, i have something telling me ill be turning into a fat slouch very soon.. minus the trainings,*sighs again* i needa holiday laaarrr! amira just left for the uk this morning *bids amira goodbye* and that makes me wanna go for a deserved holiday too!! maybe somewhere around... Scotland pa??!... :p
