Past Tenses made Present


Bloody hell. Time flies.
The last time I remebered, it was just the end of SPM, where we uncorked bottles of sparkling juice and celebrated in the school field.

The last time I remembered, we were sitting inside the stuffy school hall, jolting up in shock during History paper when the electricity went off.

We were taking illegal photos in class, nearly got caught by the Head Girl.

We were dozing away during Pn. Charan's Add Maths.

We were overexcited about the idea of getting punished. And the punishment was, standing extra 10 minutes in the quadrangle.

High school life. You'll never get them again.
And most importantly, there are those people called your classmates, who made the memories so worth treasuring, who made the impact so powerful in your heart. They are the people who shared your joy and tears, underwent every single crazy moment, laughed at the stupidest jokes(even you repeated them for a thousand times), got worried at the slightest reasons.......

Trust me, you'll never find another.


That's all of us in 5Sc4.

These are the people who did the wackiest stuff you have no idea what planet are they from.

For instance...umm

Fern loved to stand on her chair and change after PE.
Meili had the fastest rap. Sean Paul easily beaten.
Jhen boasts the best PA system. When she talks, it was LOUD.
Amirah loves TVXQ like nobody's business.
Liq had the wackiest laughter.
Zi Qin like to fight with Mei Li.
Shyen had the best sleeping skills. Sleep but nobody knows.
Lye is always worried about photos which captured her with the wrong smile, wrong hair, wrong shoes...
Kang Zhi had rollerskates attached to her feet.
Twins are the best citizens. Believe me, they listened in class.

Those short years have already been enough to host some of the best memories in my life. Our friendship is genuine. Something like Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants. A bunch of friends who I cannot possibly forget. Eventhough we are heading towards different paths in our lives now, I still believed in them.

U GUYS ROCKS!

Before Night Falls

I am not really into vampires and fantasy stuff, but this is really an exception.


It is kinda teenage(I am 'post' teen)+romance(something not my cup of tea)+fantasy(again, not me). But it is really worth a try.

And it's going on screens on December.


Starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.

I finished the book in 2 days.

Go and give it a try. I am not those people who liked fantasy stuff. I usually read books like The Da Vinci Code, Deception Point, The Last Lecture and stuff like that. Never ever chick flick or whatsoever. But I have really been on a roller coaster ride in this book. The style. Made my eyebrows twitch.

Haha...Try it. You can borrow it from me though.

Just Did It



I just did it!


I bought a pair of Nike in One Utama Nike Women.
And felt damn happy about it.


Hahahaha..The gold and black on the white. Hahaha...

Yoong Ling bought one pair Nike limited edition last holidays. And since that day Yoong Sin, Zi Qin and I had already been searching for our Nike. So this gold and black one really caught my eye. Not bothering about Zi Qin saying that glod and black will be out of fashion soon, I bought it. Yoong Sin was trying to look for a red Nike but unfortunately, saw none.

Oh, by the way, I bought it using my visa debit. It's my first time using my visa to purchase stuff.

Can't wait for the moment of expose on the streets!! I am going to flaunt it! Hahahahahahaha!!

PS: My mum does not have a clue about it. But I am pretty sure if she found out that I spent 200 bucks on a pair of shoe, she is going to scream on my face. Wonder how long does it take to keep this a secret......

Fabulous Friday

A lot of things happened today.

PART 1
First we had a trip to 8TV.


8TV is my favorite TV channel. So I am very excited to visit their broadcasting studio. It's in Bandar Utama, just next to 1 Utama. Oh anyone living in KL should know this.

This guy, Azwar is the facilitator leading us through the trip. According to him, Media Prima is the big umbrella and underneath it is TV3, 8TV, TV9 and recently NTV7 is going to join them.They also have 2 radio stations namely Hot FM and Fly FM. By the way, NTV7's studio is still in Glenmarie but their offices are already in the media prima building. Actually, 8TV's lisence was bought from Metro Vision after they ceased their operation.


Mr Azwar briefing.


I really salute Mr Ahmad Izham Omar, the CEO of 8TV. He thought about the public and did a survey and found out that what they need is for the urban and chinese market. So they imported the best series and shows from all over the world. Like the some of the Korean dramas, reality shows and stuff. Their braand manager is constantly in and out of the country seeking for new shows. Well, he also kinda believed in the local entertainment industry while everyone thought it was non-profitting. He started to support and brought bands together. Made local dramas. As a result we can see bands like OAG and local dramas like Goodnight DJ, Ghost, Kami.....Reality shows such as One in a Million, I wanna be a Model are their home made shows.

Well, I am quite impressed.

Next we had a studio tour. 8TV only had 2 studios, the Quickie set cum E News set and the Mandarin News set. The other studios they have are of TV3 and 9TV.

Actually the Quickie and the E News are 2 stes in a studio. It's a multiple camera studio. They shared the studio, the camera, and the lighting and stuff. And it's actually very small. Azwar told us that it looks big on TV because of the lens of the camera. You actually look 10kgs more on TV. Wow.. That explains why some celebrities look better in real person than in TV. Blame the camera.


The Quickie set.


The E News set.


Four of us at the Quickie set. Haha...with Azwar talking behind us.


At the legendary mini cooper at the E News set. By the way, this Mini Cooper just only have the front. The back had been chopped off...haha


All girls. You know it's like a lot of cameras. So we had difficulty to focus on which cam. hehe...like celeb.

We saw Phat Fabes on the Fly FM studio. And a DJ from Hot FM. Cool..... Mr. Ng said Phat Fabes was previously a Maxwellian.


Hot FM DJ. Blur photo coz we were separated by a glass window.


Phat Fabes making funny faces.

We toured the Mandarin News set too. It's also used as a Green Room. It means the green backdrop can be used as any background. It's so small, that we have to tour the studio 10 by 10.


News readers!!

There are some small facts that I think I would like to share. Their best ratings series are the Desperate Housewives. And their Brand Manager went through a a lot of trouble to get license to broadcast Year 4. Gossip Girl is getting more attention. Buying the license from Idol to hold Malaysian Idol is extremely costly, even the brand is there. It cost them all of their sponsorships. That's why they switched to their home made singing reality shows like One in a Million.


Bubbles!


Mr Ng and the go travel cute little cartoon. Haha...

This trip is very enlightening and eye opening. I am glad I abandoned my Chemistry experiment in school and followed the team. Hehe...


Group Photo!! Everyone is looking at different directions. What la!

PART 2
Next, we went to 1Utama. Because we are finally meeting Chris, Kang Zhi and Chui Geok after soooooooo loooooooooooog. Wah!! I really really missed them sooooo much.

We went TGI Fridays for lunch.

My Friday's Burger.


Yum~~

Chicken fingers.



The sundae.



And we watched Prince Caspian. And the funny thing was, the movie started with the lady giving birth to a prince. So she was like screaming. And dunno why the twins started laughing. Then I laughed too because influenced by them. They have problem man...always laughing when they see violent scenes. Last time when we watched Hannibal Rising, same case. They were watching the 18PG like it was a comedy. Man I tell u. Frighttening!

But really really, I enjoyed spending time with them. It's bringing back the best memories of my school life. They are friends I cannot possibly forget.

Hope there will be another time like this.


Friends for life!!

When Mums Celebrate The Day...

Due to the fact that everyone is having exams tommorow, we decided to celebrate mothers' day in grandma's house. Instead of the usual 1-hour-travel to Kuala Selangor for seafood.

Mum kept saying:'Today is mothers' day. So you must help grandma cook.'

And she lied on the sofa and slept.
How controversial.

By the way grandma did not even want my help. She said I 'kacau only'.

So I just hung out at the kitchen and pretended. But I asked questions to keep grandma company. She liked that.


That's our dinner. Erm..we have Pork with 'suan', Lemon Chicken, Chicken and Red Dates Soup, Fish Head Curry, Bak Choy and Fried Fish with Ginger. Yum~~


That's the Pork with 'Suan'. Paiseh la...I dunno the exact English for that vege. I ate a lot of that because grandma said if eat 'suan', we will have a lot of money to 'suan'.(suan is count in English) But I ate not for financial purposes. It's because my Maths sucks and if I eat a lot of 'suan', I can 'suan' during Maths Exam. hahaha...


Grandma boil the soup using charcoal oh. So traditional man.


The soup boiling with grandma's love.~~hehe

We finished every scrap of it. As usual.

Aunty Yin just came back from backpack travelling through Europe. And she brought back these.


It's like play dough but a little rubbery.
And it can be transformed to.....


this...

Haha...damn cool.

And the joke of the day was Wan Ling's puppy, Jack decided to pee on my jeans.


That dumb dog was trying to lick the cam.

And the worst part of the day is washing dishes. But we decided to let the mums wash it since they only wash once in a year.

Joking only.

Mother's day indeed is a day to be remembered, even I am not a mum. But I am very grateful to still have a mum that loves the family since Dad had left us. Eventhough we are not the type of family who is saturated with love and hugs and kisses but we still have trust. Eventhough mum nags and scolds and shouts and annoys but she is still my mum.


This is the bottle of scrub I bought for mum. RM20. For this piece of shit. But it was the most appropriate thing I can find in the whole pharmacy.

Still have her birthday to think about....sighs..
