HEHHE! LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN THE NEWSPAPER TODAY!

Epic fail by Fly Fm.

...and.of.all.the.other.things.I.did.in,KK

2012-01-16T15:06:00.005+08:00

Here's a post about almost everything else I did in KK besides celebrate Christmas =)

Honestly, the main thing I miss about KK (besides family) is the food!!! And my main planned agenda in KK is to.....

HOHOHO!! I don't care if I become a fat blob, as long as I can eat ALL of these!!

Sad thing is, I didn't get to eat all. I got to eat some though, which is good enough for me I guess.

A normal "lemonade" or 'Lemon Ping' as they call it in KK. This is the only drink that I will order in KK. Why? Because KL doesn't serve this in normal coffee shops. Of course in those italian restaurants and more expensive or proper restaurants, they might have it la but try minta la "Limau Ais" in normal kedai kopi and you'll get Kit Chai, never lemon. So, yeah.

THIS IS THE FOOD THAT I MISS THE MOST AND ALWAYS CRAVING FOR IN KL!!!! MENGGATAL NGIU CHAP! This is not your normal "beef noodle", this my friend, is beef noodle sent from heaven! NO, I repeat, NO beef noodle in KL can compare to this. Not the ones I tried before anyway, and they call those "famous" and "delicious". Blehh.

Kedai Kopi Kai Shun kon lau mee in Bornion! SEDAAAAAPPPPPP!!!!!!! This is seriously very good and I do miss it too.

Waiting for the Zhu Chap Kon Lau Mee in Tg. Aru. Once the food came, I was too hungry and excited to eat and forgot to take a picture of it, haha! Basically it's yummy yummy kon lau mee (which is not your normal kon lau mee) with mixed pork innards and meat and stuff! YUMMY!!!!!!

Fried and steamed dumplings in damai just opposite the roti kahwin shop. YUMMY AND CHEAP! 60 cents per piece!

I didn't get to eat tuaran mee and roti kahwin though, but it's okay. At least I got to eat my ngiu chap for like, I don't know.... 4-5 times? Hehehe, it is SERIOUSLY, VERY delicious. KK people know what I'm talking bout.

Besides food, other things I did in KK was,

Play gimrami with my cousins. Haha, opened two tables! We're replacing the older generations already..... Normally when I come to my grandfather's house, he will be playing gimrami with his bros and sis and now we're following their footsteps haha!

Annual Disimon Clan Christmas celebration. It's a christmas celebration in which the whole Disimon family will gather and be merry. We do this every year and this is the 18th year. My grandpa has 9 siblings, so, each year we take turns to host this celebration following from the youngest to the oldest siblings' family. This year is the end of the second cycle!

Every year, we will have a theme to follow. The theme this time was Bollywood. Here we are, Bollywood clad!

Here's almost all of the Disimon Clan. We're missing actually, quite a lot. But we're still big.

Of course I celebrated New Year in KK as well.

And that was us after our annual New Year joyride behind my grandpa's hilux. We'll drive around the area and shout happy new year to passers by and also to the people in the houses that we pass by. And we also, like every year, get thrown with water by those celebrating outside their houses, having water fights and stuff. AND, like every year, WE forget to arm ourselves with water as well. Heh...... MUST REMEMBER TO ARM SELF WITH WATER NEXT YEAR!!

Well, that's all for my KK adventures! I just came back from Singapore yesterday. Went there for my mum's birthday. Will blog about that later. Also, I'll be going to Philippines this weekend for Chinese New Year, just like every year. It's been a few years where I celebrated Chinese New Year in Philippines and not in my hometown. Bleh, cannot get ang pau. Ish!

open.ALL.the presents

2012-01-11T22:45:00.003+08:00

WEEEE!!!! Christmas posts have to be divided into two posts, even the previous one was long already due to the pictures. This will be another picture heavy post.

When you think of Christmas, of course you'll think of PRESENTS!!! Right? RIGHT? And usually, during Christmas time, I am always broke. Have to buy presents for eeeeeeeeveryone. Not that I mind though. Luckily I have two sisters to share my burden. I'm not sure about you and how your family give gifts. I know some families who just do gift exchange, which means, they only buy for one person, and they also get one present for themselves. My family buys for everyone and get presents from everyone, which I love, because that means I get loads and loads and loads coz I have kind of a big family, yay!

Another thing is, we do not open presents on Christmas day because on Christmas day, we have our annual Christmas lunch open house thingy so we won't have time and everyone is already tired. So, we usually open on boxing day, which is the 26th. Everyone will gather at my grandparent's house and bring ALL their presents.

My grandparents will open their presents first. I forgot to take their pictures =( I gave them a photo frame with pictures of my sisters and I with them.

After that, we start from the youngest member of the family, who gets to open their presents first. For now, it's Mikhail Maurice Coleman aka.... Mikhail or Buhavan as my grandparents call him! See la, his mummy force him to read who yang give him the present. I gave him some books coz he likes to read.

Next is Rodney Raphael Disimond aka Oni Oni! I gave him a notebook from Individium that says "Always Hungry", WHICH IS TRUE!

Next would be Alyssa Mae George aka Kabe aka my sister! I gave her some bracelets and a Starbucks Card.

Next, Sidney Suchart Disimond aka Suchart! I gave him a notebook that says "Fitness Freak" coz he's into sports.

Next, Giovanni Gabriel Disimond aka Gio Gio! I gave him a notebook that says "Smarty Pants". In the picture, he's holding a book my other cousin, Astra, gave him which is a "comprehensive guide to the extraordinary world of mediums, psychic and the afterlife" because he can see ghosts. Seriously.

Next in line, Angela April George aka Ler Ler aka my stupid sister. I also gave her bracelets and a Starbucks Card. Why did I say that she's stupid? Just look at her =.=. And no, this is NOT the only photo of her looking like an idiot. Even her friends said to her "Angela, you cannot ka take pictures like normal?"

Samuel Aldo Michael aka Sam joined us this year! He also got present haha! I gave him his present earlier coz I didn't know he was joining us. I gave him a notebook which says "Syok Sendiri" coz he memang.

Then, next is Jaclyn Kelly Tay aka Tuffy........ and I forgot to take her picture....... SORRY BAAAA..... maybe too entertaining already her part then I also forgot, hehe. BUT, i took picture when her bf Bobby Lu something something aka Bobby opened his present! First time joining us as well =) Oh, I gave Tuffy a necklace with a cross (gantung leher hehehehehe *inside joke*), but I didn't get Bobby anything ehehe.. sorry.

NEXT! ME HEHEHEHEHE! Kanak-kanak riang. Mummy gave me the red bag from China, I LIKE! Got another beige snake skin one also, I also like! hehe!

Collect Christmas Angpau from Bank Pertanian, Bank Rakyat and Bank..... forgot what again the other "bank" name hahaha. Me and Gio Gio balik-balik say Bank Muamalat hahaha. Oh, and Bank Negara aka my grandpa also gave me moneyyy!

After me, supposed to be Aaron Alexis Tay aka Ajun, but he didn't come. I gave him a notebook that says "Internet Junkie". So, no Ajun, next in line is Astra-Imelda Elizabeth Yapp aka... well, Astra! Producer in KRU haha! Ya, KRU yang Norman, Yusry and Edry that. I gave her a charm bracelet.

Next is Kimberly Antonia Tay aka Kakak Kim! I also gave her a charm bracelet!

Next was her boyfriend, Aric.. but I didn't take picture also hehehe.. Sorry.

So, grandchildren done, next is the children's turn! This lot my sisters yang urus the presents for them coz I urus the cousins hehe. Gave all aunties a shopping bag, you know, the ones you bring so that you don't need to take the plastic bags given by the stores. GO GREEN! Gave all uncles handkerchiefs.

The youngest of the lot, the overgrown baby, Debbie Disimond Coleman aka Aunty Debbie! Also opening presents given to her husband, my Uncle Walter and he just look from far. OH OH! Both of them gave each other presents and guess what it was? They gave each other an iPhone 4S! So, basically it's like buying for themselves but, yeah.

Next, Rosie Serena Disimond aka RSD aka Aunty Na! Her boyfriend Rico couldn't come this year =( So, she had to pass all our presents to him when she went back to KL. Oh, and Rico gave her an iPhone 4S! Gilaaaaa. When la my boyfriend wanna give me iPhone dis.

Then my uncle Hilary Disimond aka Abang! He's also opening the presents given to his wife, my aunty Flavia.

Next is Jenney Peter Disimon, my mummy!! I gave her a dress/blouse. Dunno she can fit or not, if not then I take hahahahhaa! My daddy did not come. He came only later after we've finished.

Then, next is Jane Disimond aka Aunty Jean!

After her, Rita Disimond aka Mama Ita! Also opening for my uncle, Papa Polo. My cousin Astra gave her parents a digital camera and a tablet - Motorola Xoom! Fuiyooo!

Finally it's her turn! Every year, she's the last one coz she's the eldest hahaha! Rose Disimond aka Big Mama! Also opening the presents for my Uncle Kevin. And she's also my sister, Angela, and my Godmother. We gave her a personal gift which is a clutch from Dorothy Perkins!

After she finishes then, our "Open presents" session is done! And it normally takes a few hours. Like 3-4 hours I think? But, it's fun! We get to see all the weird stuff others give and question their intention of giving such a thing or even laugh at it if we think the thing is funny, hahaha! And also the nice stuff where everyone will get jealous (like the iPhone 4S-es, digi cam and tablet)!

I can't wait for this year's Christmas again!

do.they.know.it's.christmas.time.again

2012-01-10T23:16:00.005+08:00

My favourite celebration once again! Christmas time!! Fa la la la laaa la la la laaaa~

Like all the other Christmases, in the morning, I'll attend Christmas Mass with my family. After church, we had to rush to get ready to go to my Grandma's house for our annual Christmas Lunch. Only had an hour to get ready!

Anyway, every Christmas, my family (mum's side, coz my dad's side doesn't actually celebrate I think?) will have a dress theme. Last year was denim, this year, it's ANIMAL PRINTS! I made up my mind since the theme was picked in..... April (?) that I will not, WILL NOT wear leopard prints because it's the easiest to find so, of course, a lot of people will be wearing it. So, I chose there and then that I'll wear.....

Snake print! I LOVE this dress! Snake print dresses are sooooo hard to find, like seriously, it is!! Trust me, I searched Pavilion, Sungei Wang, 1U, The Curve, Sunway Pyramid and whatever mall you can find here in KL, and I couldn't find a nice, decent and not so expensive one. So, my last resort is the internet. I got this dress from the USA! Haha, you guys can check out the website here:http://www.hotmiamistyles.com/. The quality is actually good, I love it. I thought their S size would be a liiiiiitle big but surprisingly it was a little small. But it was still okay =)

Anyway! More pics of animal prints cladded people!

My family and....

Our shoes! The left one's mine! Ok, fine, not mine. I mean, I wore them, but the shoes are my mum's, also snake printed.

With my grandparents.

My sisters and my mummy. I must say, she does look like she's one of us and not my mum, haha. She's also in snake prints which she bought last minute from the Philippines. Oh wait, my sister's clothes are from the Philippines as well, haha! But, even if my mum did not buy that dress, she has a ton of animal prints dresses back home. Queen of animal prints. Her wardrobe is SERIOUSLY FILLED with animal prints. Don't even start about her shoes. Tsk tsk. But the good thing is, I can fit her clothes, so I get to wear whatever nice stuff she has too, yay!

My cousin, Astra. The only picture I have with a cousin. I don't know where are the other pictures with other cousins. Lol.

The siblings aka my aunties, mum and uncle!

And of course he came by.

Every year we get the party started with two Christmas carols/songs. Yep, just two, every year. Haha. This year we sang, Do They Know It's Christmas by Band Aid and another is a Christmas medley. And oh! Look at our hats! We custom made it to fit our theme. My idea, thank u thank u.

After the guests were mesmerized (okay, more like deafened) by our carols, it's time to eat! AND THIS IS MY FAVOURITE!! EVERY YEAR, without fail, this will be my favourite food there!

LAMB!!! Thank God for the delicioussosososososssss lamb! Lamb of God. Hahaha, okay, sorry, inappropriate joke.

We have like around 200 guests? But this year's crowd wasn't as much as last year's.

We had a few activities and games for kids and adults.

This was from the dance medley game. I think they're jamming to BonJovi's It's My Life which was one of the songs in the medley.

My mummy dancing to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight".

We also had an ice-cream truck this year, like last year. Although we had Caprilla's last year which was sooooo much better than this one. The ice-cream this year was not good at all =(

My cousin Rodney aka oni oni as the santa claus. Like every year.

I get a picture with Santa too bah! Hehe. He's big right. Yea, he's just form one this year (2012).

After that it was all, chill and relax, chit chat. Nothing much. I think around 6 or 7pm most of the guests have already left. There were of course quite a few who stayed back to karaoke and moginum. Biasa la orang kadazan. Manada party kadazan tiada karaoke dan moginum, hahaha.

All in all, it was fun. Great company and entertainment =)

And I don't care if it's too late,

Merry Christmas!

i'm.still.here

2012-01-10T12:09:00.003+08:00

OMG I am so behind on my blog updates!!

Okay, will update hopefully tonight or tomorrow. =)

Aaaaaaand, I need a new layout.. hah!

2011-10-12T17:03:00.003+08:00

This year on the October 14th aka my birthday, what I can foresee is...

8.00am : Wake-up

8.40am : Drive to office

9.10am : Reach office

1.00pm : Probably eat lunch..... or not.

6.00pm-7.00pm : Timeframe to go back home.

Whatever time I come home : Do whatever. At home. ~~Alone.~~ With my four cats.

Heh... Boringnya.

Last year was super cool. I saw ADAM LAMBERT on my birthday!! WEEHEE~ and PARAMORE like few days after.

But, no activity for this year (yet. I hope there would be).

Nope, I'm not a fan of "go get DRUNKZZAAASSZZZ!!" For me, my birthday should be memorable and cherished. Every year. Why would I want to "get drunk"? Why would I want to wake up and don't even remember half the things that happened during my birthday celebration, and have a major hangover the next day. WHY? It's pointless.

Like last year, I wishhhhhhhh for my birthday that Hayley Williams know I exist and to have loads of money. Thank you! Oh yea, and a good life and all that stuff.

If I know this, does it mean that I'm old? Hahha. I remember doing this before! Once I did it so fast until the cassette flew to the other end of the room! Hehe.. =)

If anyone reads, like if you did this too! Yay!

facebook.timeline

2011-10-04T15:51:00.003+08:00

Now you can document your WHOLE life, and I seriously mean your whole life, on the net via Facebook Timeline.

From what's currently happening,

...back to the day when you were born when Facebook, or even the Internet has not been invented yet.

Yeap, you can "+Add a Photo" of you coming out of your mother's vagina.

... and fill in the details in between like, your first word, your first day at school, your first boyfriend, etc.

If you ask me, it's kinda freaky. Too much information?

2011-09-29T13:29:00.003+08:00

It's my sister, Alyssa aka Kabe's

14th Birthday today! And like most teens nowadays, she's in love with Justin Bieber. So, for her birthday, it's just natural to, you know, ask Justin to say happy birthday to her. And he did! LOOK!

Well, not really, HAHA!

Anyway, happy birthday Kabe and when you blow the candles, don't make stupid wishes like "I want to marry Justin Bieber".

DONE!

This somehow sums it up. "I'm getting used to being on my own." "Because in real life, you're not what I thought. This isn't what I want, guess things aren't always what they seem."

waiting.for.forever

2011-09-20T20:58:00.003+08:00

Have you ever watched a movie where it was really slow-paced, didn't really have a strong storyline or the storyline was kinda bland and somewhat monotonous and sometimes pointless, like you're asking "Why are they telling me all this?", no obvious climax, etc... but you loved it?

Yeah.. I watched a movie like this yesterday called "Waiting For Forever". I don't know if you've seen it, it's been out since last year and I've just watched it yesterday.

The poster IS actually more interesting than the movie itself, I'm not kidding you. Oh, and if it's not obvious enough, it's a love story. But, not a comedy. I can't really think of any other movie to compare this one to for now.

Here's the trailer:

So, anyway, I watched this, and I totally love it. No, I'm not being sarcastic or just simply saying good things about this movie just to trick you into "wasting your time and watching". I don't even know if I should recommend this movie to you. But, I do know for a fact that my boyfriend will not sit through this movie.

What I think about this movie is that the main character, Will, totally killed it! I meant kill like in a good way. His acting, the emotions were so raw and he was so naive which makes him so so so cute and adorable. He was like... so real.

There are quite a few nice quotes in this movie too. Romantic quotes, mostly, well actually, almost all, by Will.

I think, what makes this movie really nice is that, it's...... sweet. romantic and sweet. I don't know. I don't know how to describe it. But, for me, it was nice, I loved it, I don't mind watching it over and over again. It could be in my list of favourite movies. =)

Anyway, if you do watch the movie, and don't like it, I'm not taking responsibility, haha!

leopard.printed.nails

2011-09-18T19:09:00.001+08:00

So, after like a year, I decided to paint my nails with leopard prints again! I actually planned to just paint them flat, pink. And then I thought it was kinda boring, eheh.. So, instead of doing polkadots like I always do, I decided to do leopard prints, again. Yay! I think they look kinda good.

2011-09-13T09:51:00.003+08:00

Miss Universe 2011 is today! Like, finally, after such a long wait and all the hype it created. Malaysia is represented by none other than Deborah Priya Henry! I think she has the looks and also great confidence. Just look at the way she speaks and all.

So, anyway, the Top 16 results are out. And guess what?

SHE DIDN'T EVEN PLACE!

Oh Man..

How can this girl not get a place?

Beautiful.

Fierce.

Gorgeous.

Can you say, beyond speechless?

nope.im.not.dead

2011-09-10T23:41:00.001+08:00

Cool! iPhone now has a Blogger app.. And, oh yea, nope, I'm not dead.. I just lack the motivation to update.

Basically what's going on with me now is work, play games, work, play games, sleep, eat and all those stuff.

Oh, and I'm totally in love with Cameron Mitchell of The Glee Project. He has an amazing, amazing voice and is a total cutie. If you've not heard of him, I totally recommend you to YouTube him. I swear it won't be a waste of time =) Oh, and I was really inspired by what he did in The Glee Project.

Well, that's all for now.. Until next time, BYE!

it's.the.end

2011-07-16T23:56:00.003+08:00

Man..... This sucks. I can't believe that this is the end.

After all these years growing up with them.. Now what?

LOL, I probably sound like such a freak. So what la haha. Two times I walked out the cinema, two times I felt like "ah.... shit.. how can this be the end!!! nuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"

I think, for now, this is the only movie where the bad guys are "lovable". I absolutelyyyyyy LOVE Bellatrix, don't ask me why or WHY????? I just do. Helena Bonham Carter brought her character well. And of course, not forgetting Draco Malfoy. I LOVE U TOM FELTON (as Draco)!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha! Since HP1 he was like soooooooo damn cute, a little snobbish brat. And then I forgot which one, he suddenly become so handsome and dont look like a kid ody (and Daniel Radcliffe aka Harry kept getting not-so-handsome/cute)

Aih. I'll miss this. So long *dramatic wave goodbye*

i.want

2011-06-30T22:24:00.002+08:00

I want to feel like a girlfriend again.
I want to feel the joys of going out on a date again.
I want to feel like I'm being missed again.
I want to feel, how I felt like, when you first told me that you love me all over again.

Hmph...

this.is.funny

2011-06-23T15:07:00.002+08:00

My friend shared this few days ago:

Haha! I know, right? How could someone be so....... U know.

Apparently the original "Hi Shameful" comment has now been deleted. Before it was deleted, I actually did get to click "Like" on the comment, haha! That's just crazy. I'm wondering what his boss thought about it and what happened to that person..... Somemore those people still wanna sampat there and keep commenting. LOL.

Ah well.. That's about it this time =)

buddy.rush.fourth.wave

2011-06-17T11:15:00.002+08:00

OH YEAH! FOURTH WAVE!! Level cap seems to be 80 only this time, good. Coz I have too much characters already and I'm working now.

I can't wait for this. I think Buddy Rush is by far the best Facebook game that I've ever played. (and also the one that takes most of my time away)

ANYWAY! I still do recommend this game to everyone. You can visit their Facebook page HERE. And follow their Twitter as well at @BuddyRush

Alright, that's all for now. I'm stoked!!

Last but not least, of course, to Botiza Disimon from Penampang for taking home the crown this year. Congrats again =)

Anyway, there are alot of questions asked and wild accusations and speculations on how Botiza was crowned queen.

1. She didn't do well in the Q&A session.

I don't know how bad this is as I was not there and I only have sources from other people. Bo's question was more or less something about "keharmonian negara bermula dari unit keluarga. Apakah pendapat kamu?". Apparently, according to sources, she took some time to think about the answer, which led her to say "bagi saya masa untuk menenangkan diri.... ok, saya sudah bersedia" (allow me some time to calm myself... okay, i am ready) and then she answered. There are few ways to view this

1. It just shows that she's unprepared.

2. She was humble enough to ask for more time to answer to the question and also a smart move, if i may say, rather than just standing there speechless looking at the audience with the "uh uh uh..... oh shit, how to answer this, die la me" face.

But in the end, what matters is that she DID in fact answer the question, which means it's IMPOSSIBLE she got ZERO. Maybe she just got 10 out of 20 or something, I don't know. What was her answer? I have yet to find out as everyone I ask (on FB) has not answered my question.

ALSO, Bo's was the only one who got that question while the other contestants got questions which were repetitive. Hmm...

2. One of the judges is a friend of hers, Madelyne Nandu ex-unduk ngadau queen in 2008 or 2009?.

Okay, so I do understand that this will create speculations that Madelyne Nandu (or Mandy as everyone is calling her) will automatically be biased and help her friend. So, how? It's not Bo's fault that Mandy is her friend, I mean, what do you expect her to do then? it's not stated in the rule book that friends of judges cant follow. If you want to argue based on this, then, I suggest you find that piece of paper where Mandy writes her marks and look at the scores there. If it is true that she manipulated the marks to let Bo win, then fine, I am more than willing to step down.

3. Bo is ugly.

.... ugly meh? I do agree that other contestants are also pretty (or maybe prettier than Bo, if you wish, but for me, she's the prettiest). She's got the "Kadazan"pretty-look, the sumandak Sabah look. The others look pretty also, but, how to say ah..... eh, as a conclusion, she is not ugly or even close to ugly la..

4. The most, ugh, stupid one ever. Bo won because she's a Disimon.

ADOIIII.. This actually triggered me because of a status message in FB which I saw from a particular guy I know, who will "berdendam" with the whole family just because one person from the family did something (and in this case, a stupid thing) to him. ANYWAYYY.... I know la that my family, the Disimons are a huge and "famous" family. "won because of name" is not the case. What, are you trying to say people with big names can never win and if they do they'll be criticized? What kind of mentality. If you have no solid proof whatsoever then don't just simply say AS IF you're SOOOOO sure it happened. If Bo had gotten second or even nothing, we'll still be proud of her and we do not, I repeat, DO NOT RESORT TO DIRTY WORK TO ENSURE HER WIN. "Kalau dorang kalah, mesti dorang rasa malu tu (if they lose, they'll surely feel ashamed)". Sorry to say, we won't. Win or lose, it's a competition and of course there's a winner or a loser and we understand that perfectly. Some even go to the extent to talk bad about my family and call them liars and cheaters without any proof. I'm gonna quote this from someone in a blog i read. "Disimon family has a good reputation selama ini. Well, I don’t know them very well but some people whom I know have nothing but good words about the Disimon family." I have heard this phrase countless and countless of times (trus pura-pura cakap "ahaha, oh yaka... hehe") from alooooottttttt of people when they ask who's my mum, and I answer "Jenney Disimon" and they'll go "ohhh, Disimon pula you.." and they smile the "wah, good ahh" punya smile, then go on to ask "you kenal blablabla Disimon ka? etc etc etc". I'm not bragging or what la, just explaining to try and prove something. So, anyway, if my family were a bunch of liars and cheaters, why don't we just join every year and manipulate the results every year =.=? Bukan susah.. We have alot of girls who are not ugly. My grandfather has 7 sibling, each sibling has an AVERAGE of 5 children roughly speaking (my grandfather himself has 7 children), then imagine THEM having children as well which is an average of, 3-5 each. AND MOST ARE GIRLS. Even my own side here also have like, SIX girls (kalau tidak tersalah kira).

But no, we are not the kind to manipulate the results. We do understand that it is just a beauty pageant and even if we lose it's not like it's going to effect our family name in any way pun. Just because we come in a huge crowd (we can't help it, we are huge) to support Bo as we are always supportive of each other (see, even I'm in KL also I still support her. So do my other relatives here) doesn't equal huge family = huge power = always winner. Bo's got the package and I think she deserves to win. Say my sister joins the unduk ngadau, I will support her but I know la, if she lose, maybe coz she's short ka or what, like me hahahahhaa.. But Bo is pretty, tall, beautiful, humble, has good values and she knows her roots well.

I know that my ancestor is the top headhunter last time (si monsopiad) and we have alot of Kadazan witchdoctors (bobohizan), but doesn't mean we'll chop your head off or jampi you if you didn't let Bo win. Paranoid juga kamu ni, hahahaha.

FUH! I've written alot. Anyone else wanna debate or say anything about this is welcomed in the comments section below, but do so in moderation and with respect.

harvest.festival

2011-06-02T16:31:00.003+08:00

Harvest Festival or Kaamatan, as celebrated by the people in Sabah, falls on the 31st of May every year.. For me, I think the highlights of this celebration, yang everyone gila-gila about is either the drinking (kadazan bah, apa tidak haha) and of course the Unduk Ngadau. To peninsular friends who have no idea what Unduk Ngadau is, it's basically a beauty pageant. Since I'm too lazy to explain in my own words, Wikipedia says: The Unduk Ngadau beauty contest was started to pay respect to Huminodun, the sacrificed daughter of the Kadazandusun spirits Kinorohingan and Suminodun. It is believed that she was the one who taught the priestesses, known as locally as Bobohizans their ritual mantras which exist today.

So, each district and areas is Sabah (except for Klang Valley. Hah, Klang Valley also got representative ohh. Untuk orang-orang Sabah yang tinggal di KL la ni macam saya haha) will send their girl and they'll compete in the state level. Criteria: You have to have Kadazan blood in you and some height requirement which I dont qualify for. You're mixed chinese ka indian ka orang putih ka whatever, you still can follow as long as you have Kadazan blood =)

Well anyway, since I've been in KL for like, 5 years, kinda miss out on this celebration although there is a Klang Valley level celebration which I do attend. But besar ba celebration di Sabah, kena kasi cuti lagi tu siallll.

This year though is the most exciting one!!! Why? COZ MY COUSIN FOLLOW UNDUK NGADAU AND SHE'LL BE REPRESENTING PENAMPANG!! WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I have 100% confidence in her and she really is Unduk Ngadau material and truly is a Kadazan beauty. I went back in April and was telling her "ehhh, you join unduk ngadau laaaa" and she was like "ya, i'm joining la this" then I was like so excited already. 'Must win ah!' I said.

Not long after there was the selection for Penampang level and SHE WON!!!! Weeeee!!!! She also won a subsidiary title for Ms Natural Beauty. Then come 31st May where she'll be competing for the state level title.. fuh, nervous ody la konon.. Posted on her wall in FB, posted on Twitter also. Biarlah di KL tapi masih kuat support ni!!

So, since I can't be there, just wait la.. Wait wait wait for the results in FB.......

Wait, wait, wait then FINALLY my friend posted on my wall..

BOTIZA MENANG!!!!!! (her name's Bo Tiza)

WAAHHHHH!!!!!!! Punya la I happy!!!!!!!! How I wish I was back there celebrating with them. Confirm makan besar and minum banyak!

Anyway, here are some pics of her that I manage to get from FB. Presenting to you, Ms Bo Tiza Disimon, Unduk Ngadau State Level 2011! Not forgetting that she also won the subsidiary title for Ms Natural Beauty in the State Level as well.. Fuh, bangga! =)

The top 7 in the state:

Top 3:

During the gala night:

Last but not least,

MY KAUM KERABAT DISIMON!!!

Happening kan?? And I missed it, damnn!!!!

Once again, congrats Bo!!!

Way to say **** you skinny bitches!! OK, just kidding.. but still.. I can totally relate to the first sentence : I love food and hate exercise. THAT IS SO ME! But I'm still tiny with extra fats on my lower body, didn't circulate proportionately..

But seriously, this gal is plus-size and she still looks great!! BEAUTIFUL! I don't know what your definition of beautiful is, but for me, she is =)

46. You wake up in the middle of the night hearim them screaming “When is the deadline?”

48. They dream of the day nobody will make a single change to their designs. (This is definitely true, that's why it's in the largest font size, haha!)
49. They rather pay for a font than for a special birthday gift.

Ah well, I'm guilty for 19 cases out of 50.. Still, that's alot. Or maybe, I'm in self denial for some cases, I dunno haha.

Oh and, I should probably add one more, not as a graphic designer, but as me, myself.

51. I already have a boyfriend.

Hahaha.

So that would be 51 reasons why you should not date me. =)

random.reads.and.thoughts

2011-01-30T18:24:00.007+08:00

SO... I was reading this blogpost. Kinda stumbled on to it when I stumbled upon her blog. First time yesterday, so I don't actually know her or stuff like that. What I'm saying is just related to that particular blog post, and only that.

Basically, she was ranting about FHM Malaysia's Girl Next Door competition, and how it's more like FHM Whore Next Door.. I agree.

Now, before I start, I would like to say that I'm not a saint, I'm not sooooo la holy and... well, you get what I mean right? This is just a matter of opinion. That's it. Just what I think, on my blog. This is not a personal attack to anyone, or any of the contestants. In fact, I know one of the contestant (not as in friends or what but the connection is kinda close and I'll probably get into trouble but..... ah, well). This is my blog, this is my opinion. Offended? Well, offend me back if you want, I won't stop you or start whining (I will defend myself as I see fit, and also delete your comments as I see fit) because, I know what this is calling in, and, well, come what may..

Basically, what I want to say is not only targeted to girls in that competition, but also to similar competitions and similar behaviour. Also girls, you've already put yourself out there, so, you can't actually EXPECT it ALL to be nice and shining, and no one's gonna criticize you right? So, here it is, plainly, or however you view them, criticism and insults. Or maybe, compliments, if that is really how you want people to perceive you as.

These kind of competitions.. Hmm.. How should I put this.. Well, if it's not trying to sell you girls off as sex symbols/objects, then I don't know what it is doing.. Don't shit tell me the one with the best personality wins.. It'll be the biggest laugh of the century.

I stole this picture from the previous blog post I was talking about coz I'm too lazy to search, and obviously, she stole it from somewhere as well.. These are the pictures of the FHM Girl Next Door competition contestants (part of them anyway)..

Can SOMEONE honestly tell me that those pics DON'T scream "SEX!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Best personality wins? Okay, MAYBE they DO have nice personalities but, pics like those, they look really sluttish and whore-ish. This is how they're portraying themselves to the whole world. What I think this competition is doing, is degrading women. Different if you're talking about Miss Universe or Miss World, where they actually DO show respect to women. You don't see them shoving their ass or boobs in your face do you? Or posing in such manner? If these girls actually do have some respect for themselves, they won't even join this competition in the first place or if they didnt know what they were getting into, would have pulled out of the competition when asked to do these kind of shots.. Well, I don't know bout you, but if I were to "accidentally" join a competition and suddenly was asked to do these kind of shots, I'm saying bye-bye. No matter how GREAT the prize is, be it a lamborghini or millions of cash.. For me, self respect is much more expensive than that.. Self worth, harga diri, is more expensive than that..

Here's an actual question posed to the contestants: "Which vegetable satisfies you the most?". Okay, I don't know if I just have a dirty mind, or that question just doesn't make sense. Knowing FHM, I don't think they expected answers to be like "Well, I love to eat cabbage because it is healthy and it satisfies me to be healthy." Ya right. This question sounds more to.... well... to unleash men's sexual fantasies.. like..... hoping a contestant would say cucumber or something (yes, i am thinking what you are thinking)..... More reason to believe that this competition is just selling sex and to portray these girls as cheap bimbos.

Other than this competition, there are also girls in facebook. I'm sure you've seen girls posting pictures of themselves in just their underwear or bra, lingerie, with THOSE kind of poses and attire on facebook. What are they trying to show? What I think? Well one, they're cheap. Two, cheap. Three, too cheap. No dignity, no self respect at all. You can already imagine the comments "wow, nice boobs, would love to grab them, call me." "ehem, you made my lil bro become a big bro" "I just came" okay, im gonna stop now before it gets too 18sx. And I've seen some who actually try to defend themselves by saying that it's "art". Oh COME ON. Who are you kidding. We both know the truth!

There's alot more I would like to say, but, I don't wanna get carried away. To anyone who's gonna come here and say that I'm jealous because of whatever reason you're gonna give. Here's what I have to say. I'm saying all these because I think these girls are portraying themselves as cheap and without dignity, in rougher words, sluttish and whoreish. There's no use for me to be jealous of them and those kind of people because then I might as well be jealous of all the prostitutes in this world. Right? =)

2011-01-23T01:17:00.005+08:00

I've just watched the movie Letters To Juliet (late, I know. But it's never too late =). It was simply amazing and very touching. A girly movie centering on finding the love of your life and hope. What better way to heal a broken heart?

There was nothing utterly fancy about the storyline, it was fairly simple, but it was the whole journey, the development and the bonding between characters, the romantic scenes and the whole message of the film that made me love it. It's the simplicity of it all that made it shine.

If you're a romance junkie and have not seen this, you are totally missing out. This was and is an amazing movie. Really worth watching. I really love the ending =')

Besides that, Amanda Seyfried is really pretty and beautiful.. Just like a princess.. As opposed to other actresses who are more inclined to being hot and sexy.. She's just... sweet.. Makes me wanna be just like her. Have nice long and flowing hair... Hmm..

Well.. that's about it. I'm feeling pretty good right now. I'm back to.. being hopeful and believing in love.....for the time being.. I wish there were more guys like Charlie... and less like Victor.. I'll be forever hopeful, although I know, I may be stupid like that.. But, I guess it's okay.. Never too old to believe in fairytales.. and.. It's never too late for love..

I just wish love was just like the movies.. Well, the good ones anyway..

What can I say.. I'm a hopeless romantic.

perfect.nightmare

2011-01-15T10:42:00.006+08:00

Perfect song for this perfect moment. I'm torn and broken. Sorry for the emo posts, because I feel really emotional now.

Sometimes we fight

Sometimes I cry

Why dont I just tell him goodbye

Sometimes I should but

Sometimes I dont

Build up the strength to say that its wrong

Sometimes I hate, sometimes I love

Sometimes I hurt, sometimes I dont

Sometimes I wait for him to change

But its okay I just got to pay

And I dont ever wanna leave him alone

They say im brain washed but im in love with this man

Keep tellin myself that its not worth it

I already know I dont deserve it

But if its from you I dont mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

No way , no way , no way ,no way , no way , no way , no way

But if its from you I dont mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare

Sometimes I keep it cool

Sometimes I let him know

sometimes I even pack my bags to walk out the door

Sometimes I feel safe

Sometimes I really dont

Sometimes I promise that im ready to let him go

but I dont ever wanna leave him alone

They say im brain washed but im in love with this man

Keep tellin myself that its not worth it

I already know I dont deserve it

But if its from you I dont mind hurting

He is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

No way , no way , no way ,no way , no way , no way , no way

but if its from you I dont mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare

Hoping he's changing but im scared he's not

Cant see a way to leave him

he opened my eyes and i..

Keep tellin myself that its not worth it

I already know I dont deserve it

But if its from you I dont mind hurting

His is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

Keep tellin myself that its not worth it

I already know I dont deserve it

But if its from you I dont mind hurtingt

His is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

Thanks, indeed.

2010-12-22T10:24:00.009+08:00

Wow, I've not updated my blog in a looooonnnnnggggg time! And, after my long absence, I now announce that I have graduated!!

Do feel sad or do I feel happy? It's kind of a mixture of both. Now, I will have to face the horrors of the working world (that's if I manage to get a job, HAH!), but of course, the good side of this is, I get money for doing work, whereas, in Uni, I need to SPEND money to do work. I've "contributed" thousands of my money on printing and all that stuff, now's the time to earn it all back. And, also to payback my parents for giving me the opportunity to pursue my dreams by giving me the foundation to it which is education. THANK YOU!

To my dear friends, I will miss all of you guys sooooooo much. Do keep in touch. I will definitely cherish all the memories we had since the day I met each and every one of you. For some of you, it's a pity that we only got to actually be close and know each other better this semester, especially to the fragments members. Of course, it's better than never knowing each other at all =)

My first friend from foundation who talked to me and asked where are we supposed to go now during orientation hahaha.. Ms Chiew Miin Yuann.. If you've not talked to me, I'll really just be alone at that time =)

After these four years, you're still my friend and I hope it won't just stay at "four years".

When we were all so fresh and young, during foundation :

Former housemates of Desaria C-3A-13A haha. I remember we took this picture before going to eat dinner at Thiyagu's place for Deepavali.

Daniela who I have not seen for a damn long time!!! I miss you my one and only Swiss friend!!

The unforgettable London trip. Best moment with you guys EVER!! So... when's the next? Bring the whole of BPD8 this time around, haha!

And my dear Fragments members, I won't forget all of you! All of you made our exhibition so successful and I'm so grateful and honoured to be your leader.

And now, after all we've gone through together......

We have now graduated. Four years. Can anyone of you believe that four years had passed? It passed by so quickly for me. I still can't really grasp the situation. It still "kinda" feels like, next year we're all gonna be in..... BPD9 or something. Of course, that's not the case and I miss all of you so badly. I remember missing all of you during the internship period and that was like what, four months? And now, I have no idea when I'm gonna see each one of you again..... *sniff sniff*.. Don't forget to invite me to your wedding!!!!! ALL OF YOU!!!!! Heehee.. Let's see who's the first....... (I heard it'll be Magie.. haha!)

Well, happy to say, I graduated with flying colours.

My final and most finalest result, tada!

Never did I expect to get that when I first stepped into Limkokwing four years ago. Mum said that my graph shows that I've never improved =.=

Anyway, I didn't take much pictures during the graduation. Firstly, because I had to be in the holding room earlier than most of my classmates as I was receiving an award.

And secondly, I was rushing to go to eat lunch with my family, as they came..

Yea...... Kinda jealous when I see you guys post the pictures in Facebook and there's no me T.T . Not fair lo................. Yerr................

To all the lecturers that have taught me since foundation, Ms Nora, Eiffel, Mr Nik, Mr Faiz, Yen Huei, Yun Lin, Mr Foad, Ivan Lam, Aaron, Ernesto, Ms Ezlina, Azlinda, Tay Guan, Mohana, Mr Anwar, Gloria, Satish, Trinaaa, Daniel, Irman, Mr Lawrence (Hope you're good where you are, with God and the angels), Alice, Ms Intan and Mr Khalil, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with me, you guys made me who I am today. I thank you all so much. To all the other lecturers who've not taught me but have crossed my path during my time as a student, like Mr Syahrul, it was great knowing you and I'll remember our time in London the most =) Good luck to all of you in the future. Hope we'll meet again somewhere and somehow.

To my friends... I'LL MISS YOU GUYS!!!!! Keep in contact, I MEAN IT! Haha..

Well, so, that's it.. I'm crossing the edge now..... xoxo

stop.child.abuse

2010-12-01T10:51:00.002+08:00

What's a child? Who's a child? Pre-schoolers? Primary school kids? Well, according to the United Nations, a person is considered a child if he or she is below the age of 18 unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier. Therefore, a child is not only small little kids, but includes all those under 18. Yes, that means it also include those high school kids who some could look like they are already 20.

Child abuse is a serious case. There are various cases of child abuse, and most affects the child both mentally and physically. Physical abuse by hitting, hurting, etc, Sexual abuse like raping the child, psychological abuse like name-calling, torture and even destruction of their favourite belongings. Finally, neglect can also be categorized as child abuse. There's no such thing as "which is the worst case of child abuse" because, if it is abuse, it is already "worst".

As much as I want to stop all kinds of child abuse, I really can't stand child sexual abuse. Do you know how much trauma it causes the kid? And this kind of abuse is fatal physically and emotionally as well. Besides that, it will taint the child's future permanently. What if the kid gets pregnant? Then what? And guess what, she might just be only 15! If child birth doesn't kill her, maybe, suicide out of guilt will? If not then, what is she going to do for her future? Baby sit the baby the whole day? Then, who's going to pay for the baby expenses? I am sure the abusers will not care about all those "petty" stuff. What will happen with their dreams? Dreams of becoming a doctor or lawyer, a successful businessman, and MORE. All gone.

This is a shortfilm made by me, about child sexual abuse. Yes, things like this happen. It's not just a film, it is reality.

Let's avoid that from happening to ANYONE. And not just that, also, ANY form of child abuse.

Get on board. Stop child abuse NOW! Support this cause, they are our future.

PARAMORE.CONCERT

2010-10-21T18:15:00.005+08:00

THIS IS PART FOUR OF MY BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION! And a great way to end the celebration as well! I'm sorry if there's too much exclamation marks in this post, but it's all because I get way too excited even thinking of it.. hehe!

The last celebration for my birthday, PARAMORE CONCERT!!!!!! I GOT TO SEE MY IDOL, HAYLEY WILLIAMS!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! (I'm sorry for the caps and exclamation, too excited. I know, it's annoying but, I can't help myself =)

WOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

This was the view before the concert started. I bought the Rm152 ticket (early-bird price, normal price RM168), because I can't afford rockzone, so yeah.. Well, actually my youngest sister paid for my ticket, and rockzone was too much to ask. Yeah... Anyway.

The opening act, Y2K, i'm so sorry to say, was lousy. They could have chose someone like Bunkface instead. I mean, there are LOADS more local groups which are much better. For me, it totally spoilt the opening. BUT! All of those are long forgotten when PARAMORE hit the stage!!!! Ahhh!! I'm getting excited all over again! They came at EXACTLY 8.30pm. Thumbs up for the punctuality!

They kicked things off with Ignorance! AMAZING!

I don't have much pictures of them coz Hayley was constantly moving, and it's really hard to get a good shot anyway. So, I resorted to taking videos instead! I took loads! Gonna share three here. I'm sorry about the sound quality and probably the shaking and video quality as well. I wasn't standing near the stage and I guess you could barely hear Hayley. But, there are more videos in Youtube besides mine. If you want, you can check it out.

Here is That's What You Get:

Brick By Boring Brick:

The Only Exception (Paramore, you are my only exception):

This is by far the best concert i've been to. I do not know how any other concerts could top this one off my list. I sang my lungs out, jumped and danced. Even AWESOME can't describe it. It's way beyond awesomeness and everything good I can think of. If they come down again, or somewhere near where I could afford, I WILL SURELY GO!

I'm pretty sure everyone there felt the same. EVERYONE was singing to EVERY song, including me! It's like we know the words to ALL the songs, which contributed to the awesomeness! They sang ALOT of songs like Ignorance, Brick by Boring Brick, Misery Business, Crush Crush Crush, That's What You Get, The Only Exception, Where the lines overlap, playing god, looking up, misguided ghosts, and alot more!!

And man did I regret so badly not getting the rockzone tickets when during their last song, Misery Business, Hayley asked "Who wants to be on stage with us?". I practically died screaming, I WANT!!!!!! Of course, from where I'm at, she would never know I exist, but i still scream haha! Some lucky guy got to get up on stage with them, and he took a picture with Hayley! ARGHH!!!! I'm so jealous, Hayley i love you!!! I think Ben was annoyed by me coz, every song I will be tugging him and shouting "Hayley Williams!!!". I'm sorry I'm so obsessed with her, but she's my idol, and the feeling of actually seeing your idol is indescribable. I'm so glad I got to see her. I wish one day I could meet her, although the chances are pretty much, zero. Okay, reading that again, I sound like such a teenager... I dont care! I wanna meet Hayley!! Oh and, that doesn't mean that I don't like Jeremy, Zack, Josh and Taylor. I just love Hayley more =)

Maybe most of you know, she was the one who led me to dye my hair red. And now I do miss my long, red hair. (although her hair is now orange).

I have short hair now, but still red, though not as red (Im gonna dye it again i swear. I want that red!). I could, also, go get a wig and dye it red. Hmm, I'll think about that. Hehe.

So, the concert ended with them singing Misery Business. And they were off in a jiffy! Aww, couldn't they stay a while to meet the fans.....? Hehe, I'm asking too much.

Here we are after the concert:

I am sweating like mad, but I don't care, I enjoyed it so much!!!

No, no. Thank YOU for rockin with US!

Paramore gets a post of their own because I love them so much and because this was the best time of my life. And once again, sorry for sounding overly excited with exclamation marks and caps all over, but that's just because it was too awesome that i couldn't contain my excitement even until now. I swear when I heard snippets of the concert on the radio on the way to Uni the next day, I screamed in the car. Yeah. Psycho.

turning.21

2010-10-21T17:19:00.008+08:00

I turned 21, last week. WOW, I didn't realized that a week has already passed and I'm just blogging bout this now, haha! They say 21 is the age of freedom and all that stuff, big celebrations and all. Well, I didn't have any big and huge celebration but i celebrated it in few parts =) Okay, fine, if it's not the date of my birthdate it doesn't count, but I don't care, as long as i count it as a celebration, then it is, hehe!

I got my gold key right here!

Haha, well, sort of. Thanks to Miin Yuann and Wie Nie for this, it's really sweet =) I'm still waiting for the Lamborghini though....*ehem*

Got a few other presents from Ben (of course), my sister (flew all the way from Miri just for the weekend to celebrate my birthday) who got me a pair of red shoes and a top, my mum who paid for loads of stuff from shopping while she was here, Adam Lambert concert tickets + RM100 from dad, Paramore concert tickets from my youngest sister and cash cash cash from my grandma and aunties.

On my birthday itself, 14 Oct 2010 I went to ADAM LAMBERT'S CONCERT! WOOOO!!!!!!

Nope, not by myself but with:

Uncle Walter, Mikhail, Aunty Na, Mummy, Aunty Debbie, Ben and of course myself.

ADAM!!!!!!!!

The concert was great! I took few videos, not gonna post it up here as it will take so much time, unless anybody wants to see. Good ol Lumix camera could zoom so close til i could take a close-up of his face, and I could even see the glitter glittering on his hair. Hehe! He sang songs like Fever, Ring of Fire, Whataya want from me, For Your Entertainment, If I had you, Strut, Aftermath, Mad World and more!!! His voice was too good, I'm speechless! Awesome, the show was just really really really good. That was Part One of my birthday celebration!

PART TWO is on 16 October where I celebrated with my family at The Gardens Lifestyle Store and Cafe, The Curve.

They got me a cake!

Astra, Aunty Debbie, Angela, Me, Ben, Mummy, Aunty Na, Rico, Unc. Walter and Mikhail.

The writings on my cake..

Candle: The 1 in 21 hehe.

The food was just okay, nothing to scream about. Thanks to mummy for paying!

PART THREE!

RedBox means....

Karaoke! Had quite a fun time there with Aunty Debbie, Mummy, Aunty Na, Mikhail and Ben. Mummy paid again, yay!

And Part Four, will have a blog post of it's own because, I LIKE!

global.warming.cool.art.poster

2010-10-13T22:59:00.005+08:00

This is my second project for Graphic Design class. This time around, we're supposed to design a cool art themed poster to create awareness for Global Warming. Yeah, i know, the Global Warming topic is pretty old, but hey, it is happening, so, play your part!

Here's my rationale:

Basically, this whole idea is based on the fact that deforestation causes Global Warming. Deforestation is not "just cutting trees", it's also cutting down things we enjoy and have now like animals, recreational activities, the four seasons and more. Did you know that you won't be able to play baseball anymore because of Global Warming because the wood used to make the bat will no longer be available due to bugs eating the trees.. And yea, global warming will make bugs multiply faster as well. Besides, trees are also important as our source of oxygen (which also cools the earth), to absorb Carbon Dioxide which is one of the greenhouse gases that heats up the earth and it is also homes for animals.

Anyway, based on this whole idea, I put images of things we could have without Global Warming as the leaves. Something like these:

I drew altogether 25 of these, but used only 22 due to space and layout constrictions.

The tagline I used is:

STOP cutting trees. SAY GOODBYE to all of these, or global warming. YOUR CHOICE.

It's self explanatory. I previously wanted to just put "Let's cut this all down shall we?" and put some description below telling how deforestation causes global warming bla bla bla. But I guess, it's better to put something more direct, easier to understand. The text layout, although it's not like, "poster-material", I created it like that because it's part of the brief that our artwork looks like "cool art". Still, it is readable.

Well, here it is, the final outcome.

Comments and feedback very much appreciated because, i didn't get to show the lecturer the final outcome due to time (just had the concept approved) as i had stomach ache for a week, and i didnt do my work during that time coz it hurts. Finished this 2 days before the submission and presentation. Hehhhh.......

king.of.anything

2010-10-13T01:27:00.005+08:00

I AM AS HEALTHY AS A HORSE! FINALLY! And I feel so active now.. BOOYA you stupid infection!!

I wanna share this video this time around. I love this, Sam Tsui's rendition of King of Anything by Sara Bareilles. I think the song is utterly beautiful. Take a listen =)

Adam Lambert will be in town soon!!! He was kinda "upset" i guess, due to the Malaysian government finding his performances offensive, and "promoting the gay lifestyle". He agreed to make a few minor adjustments. No kissing Tommy, boohoo, or anyone on stage.. or jumping. JUMPING. I think they mixed up the meaning of the word as gay can mean gay, and gay - happy. Thus, jumping is prohibited as it shows that you're happy! You are so clever!

"Plus, what's THE gay lifestyle? There isnt just one. There are so many different kinds of gay people. We have a variety of different lifestyles. There's not only one lifestyle lived by straight folks. Generalizing...." he said. I mean, it's true. Discrimination on the gays. WHY? Why, why, why? I have no problem with gays, ~~and if I were a guy, i have a feeling that i would be gay. I don't know why.~~ They're human just like us. If you don't like what they're doing, alrite fine, BUT please don't discriminate the person himself. They're still human beings, talk eat breathe, just like you. So what's the big deal about sexual orientation. It's just..... sexual orientation. If you think being gay is wrong, then by discriminating them, does that make you right? Hating on another human being based on something they did or did not choose makes you right? uh-uh.

Well, it's time to sleep now. 2:23AM. In a designer's world, that is still early.. Anyway, good nite! See you later, with my global warming poster (it rhymes!). Up in the next post.

stomach.ache (updated)

2010-10-06T21:33:00.004+08:00

I've been having stomach ache for 5 days now.. The pain is excruciating and I can't last 15mins sitting down doing my work.. I have an A1 size global warming poster due on Tuesday and I'm here in pain.. Finished barely half of it.. How, how, how???

I had a photo shooting for the final exhibition today.. Had to force myself to be 'normal'.. And went back home suffering.... Luckily it was successful.. Thanks to everyone for coming.. There won't be any missing person in the photos.. Cool..

So, yea, gonna continue resting.. Even resting is hard work for me.. Ugh.... I gotta get well soon, I gotta finish that poster.. I don't wanna repeat the semester..

P/S: blogging from my phone while lying down.. I wish I could design while lying down as well hmphhhh..

UPDATE: Seems like, I have a urinary infection. Hmmh....

global.warming.WIP

2010-09-28T23:47:00.003+08:00

I had tutorials for the second project for Graphic Design class. This project is to design an A1 poster about Global Warming and Climate Change.

I'll blog bout my concept and everything after I'm done. Basically, it's an image of a tree. It's leaves though, contains images of things we can enjoy/have without Global Warming. For now, I have 24 leaves, and I've only done TWO and only starting to draw the third one. Totally killing myself this time.

Work in progress:

Wine and a deer..

Just starting to colour my polar bear.

Wish me luck! The feedback from the lecturer was better today.

Maybelline.Bag.Design

2010-09-26T11:53:00.004+08:00

So, this is the first project for this semester. Yes, after 7 weeks, this is the first project.

I had to design a bag design for Maybelline New York for them to give out during Christmas as a gift, or something like that. I'm not happy with the outcome at all. I don't know, I don't have any inspiration and motivation at all for this project and besides that, I'm lacking ideas with no one to go to give me some input and constructive comments. Even the lecturers, I don't know. I showed my work during tutorials, and she said it was okay. So I THOUGHT everything was okay. But nooooo, at the end of it all, when it was already submitted, she dropped the bomb and told everyone that our work was not up to standard, very bad and etc. Describing it like it's shit. I mean, seriously, why'd you had to wait until it's already submitted THEN give those kind of comments? WHAT'S THE FREAKING POINT? You might as well tell me to redo, I won't mind! Rather than LIE to me that it's okay, then after it's all done and finalized that I can't do anything about it, you say that it's shit. If you want your students to submit good work, then help them out during the process! Regardless if they are "final semester students" who're "supposedly" mature enough to judge. Don't give me that shit that's supposedly a "reason" to not guide us. Even if we go out to work, we will have colleagues who are more experienced than us, and if we do design something that is not so nice, they will tell us. Or if I'm not quite sure, I could ask around. Of course, not completely dependent on them, but at least get SOME feedback. Well, that's what I experienced during my internship. Everyone help each other. So, if you're telling me that in the real world I'll be on my own, don't give me that shit! I'll be alone if I'm some arrogant little bitch in the working world. But, I don't want to be that arrogant little bitch because I want people to talk to me and give me some feedback on my designs so that I can improve.

So, OKAY. Done ranting. So much anger, phewwww. Anyway, here's the four shit that I've produced for this project. It's not like I'm saying this because I think it's unfair that my beautiful work has been degraded, nope. To be clear, I don't like my work and I don't think it's beautiful BUT, YOUUUUU whose job is to guide me (and didn't, besides asking me to change the arrangement of some), told me everything was okay, so i THOUGHT it was, then when I couldn't do anything anymore, told me it was shit. Okay, so, whatever, moving on.

First design. I can say, this is a really lazy piece of work. Live trace + masking + arranging. Child's play. I'm taking a simple and direct approach.

Second design. I put in a LITTLE bit of effort in this one, still, not enough, and could be categorized as no effort work. This design is based on a "reflection" concept. Elements on the left are reflected on the right, difference being, the image on the right has Maybelline products incorporated into the New York elements. So, it's like, Maybelline products can make you feel like you're living the New York life, glamorous, fashionable and fabulous.

Third and Fourth Design are derived from the second design. This time, no "original state" of the New York elements, just the juxtaposed ones.

And if anyone bothers, here's my rationale for all designs. You can click on it, and it enlarges, then you can read the small text.

OKAY! That's all for today. I would really love some comments about my design because the lecturer has told me practically nothing about it besides it being okay to describing it as bad, which doesn't make sense to me. Or maybe, it's just a design where looks okay at first, but after some time it looks bad, I don't know. You tell me.

kepada.pemusnah.keluarga

2010-09-21T19:47:00.003+08:00

Kepada Pemusnah Keluarga yang dibenci,

Saya sudah tahu tentang niat anda untuk "membawa geng dari keningau pi antam dia". Saya tahu saya ni "senang ja mau pukul, kurus kerempeng kan". Thank you, saya ucap dulu, saya suka kurus daripada awak yang makan pil untuk menguruskan badan tapi tidak jadi-jadi. Apa yang saya hendak katakan ialah.

NAH! ***** ***** NAH! SUCKS BANANA! NAH! OTAK ULAT NAH! KURANG AJAR, NAH!

-ala Lagu Nah! oleh Namewee.

Ok, ok. Serius sedikit. Apa yang saya betul-betul ingin cakap ialah, saya manusia. Kau pun, saya RASA la, manusia juga la kan. Ada mata, hidung, mulut, semua la kan, memang RUPA macam manusia la. Tapi, hairan saya. Saya, kira ok juga la berfikir. Bukan la pandai sangat atau perfect, tapi kira, pemikiran yang boleh diterima oleh majoriti lapisan masyarakat). Saya yang "sekolah di KL" tidak mengubah apa-apa dari segi pemikiran atau unsur-unsur lain selain menghirup udara yang berlainan, yang ada kalanya atau sememangnya lagi tercemar berbanding dengan yang ada di Sabah. Tetapi, kau ni, merokok kan, jadi tidak hairan juga la kalau kau ni lagi tercemar dari saya.

So, anyway, tentang pemikiran. Saya bukanlah Tuhan yang sentiasa betul, tapi, saya cuma berfikiran secara logik, cuba pertimbangkan apa yang dikatakan dan cuba bandingkan dengan moral yang telah saya belajar di sekolah dan yang telah ibu bapa saya ajar. Apa yang saya boleh katakan ialah, astaga, tahap pemikiran kau, macam tiada otak tau. Saya bukan mau menyindir la. Silap-silap otak kau kena makan ulat tau. Bagus kau pergi check doktor tu. Nanti ada pula ulat keluar dari mata kau atau nanti bukan rambut pula di atas kepala kau tu, jadi rambut ulat pula, geli. Tidak, bukan macam Medusa, sorry sorry, jangan terperasan pula. Medusa tu legend, dan kepala dia ber ULAR bukan ULAT. Saya cuma mau memberitahu. Kalau saya simpan, nanti bila betul-betul berlaku, rasa bersalah juga la sebab tidak bagi tau kau awal-awal. Bah, baik hati kan, cuma mahu menolong.

Konklusinya, kalau benar-benar kau ni manusia, KALAU lah ok, bukan memaksa kau jadi manusia kalau kau bukan manusia, mungkin kau anjing kah. Dalam Bahasa Inggeris, anjing betina (sebab kau ni perempuan kan) ialah bitch. Kongsi "ilmu" sikit, mungkin kau tidak tau kan, kesian juga. Saya cakap "anjing" mungkin kau tidak faham, manusia pun kau bukan, "Alamak, saya ni apa ahh??" kau fikir, panik sudah mungkin, alamak alamak. Jadi, saya kastau la, kalau anjing betina tu BITCH. Kau fikir "OHH!!! AHH ITU LA SAYA!!!" Ahhh, mungkin macam itu la kan. MUNGKIN lah. Atau mungkin kau mahluk lain , saya tidak tau la. Sebab, RUPA kau macam manusia, jadi saya anggap manusia lah. Jadi, sepatutnya pandai berfikir macam manusia yang berotak. Kalau ada otak, atau cebis-cebisan yang belum dimakan ulat yang masih berfungsi. Apa saya maksudkan dengan berfungsi bukan lah untuk fungsi seperti cara membuat "kerja meniup" atau "stail anjing" ok. Kalau sudah habis dimakan otak kau tu, rugi lah. Ok, kembali kepada apa yang ingin saya katakan tadi. Kalau ada otak, KALAU, jangan paksa kalau tiada, cubalah berfikir, setelah sekian lama kau mengabaikan proses yang dinamakan "berfikir" itu.

Terima kasih.

Serba-sedikit kata-kata dari orang yang keluarganya telah dimusnahkan oleh kau.

after.a.day.of.work

2010-09-16T21:19:00.003+08:00

After a day of work, and after having my designs approved for the Maybelline project, I decided to play around.

I just realized the pics are so emo, so, I'm gonna end with Sam Tsui's first original song...which is also emo..

boys.of.the.past

2010-09-13T18:10:00.005+08:00

As some may know, the MTV VMAs (Video Music Awards) happened today.. I was looking at the performances, pictures and award acceptance (Lady Gaga and her MEAT dress, gasp! and i thought the meat bikini was the end of it). Well, anyway, the purpose of this post is: Eminem and Linkin Park performed live.. "Ya, so?" you may be thinking, but it reminded me of the past, I mean like way back in my Primary and Secondary school days.. During those days, while all most girls I know are crushing on, I dunno, Nsync or Backstreet Boys. I, hehehe, had a crush on....

Eminem

old picture of him above.. and a more recent one below..

He looks slimmer now, and looks better with black hair.. I remember seeing him with black hair in his movie 8 Mile, and thought he looked really good! I used to memorize his songs, and for a kid, the lyrics were very harsh.. I grew up to be a harsh kid lol.. And, yea.. I used to like, draw tattoos on myself, replicating those on Eminem.. Especially the tattoo on his wrist.. Drew it on my wrist, without even needing to look at the reference coz I know it by heart already haha.. Kids... haha!

And I also had a crush on Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park..

That's how he used to look like before.. I still remember he had red hair, blue hair, yellow hair, black with red highlight, black with blue highlights, black... then he shaved it all off (NOOOO!!!) and then, they went lost somehow and are back now.. and now he looks like this!

SO MUCH DIFFERENT! Not nice!! I was a huuuugggggeeee Linkin Park fan. I joined their fan club, Linkin Park Underground, using my own money.. it wasn't cheap ok, it was in USD! i think around RM400 for a year!! Damn, no wonder i'm poor now.. lol.. And, sometimes they'll get on the fanclub chatroom and talk to their fans, and because of the time difference, i'll get up at like 3am, go online, just to talk to them.. And, i did chat with Mike once.. Asked him the stupidest question "Do you like Evanescence?" what the hell.. Oh, and I was soooo jealous of his girlfriend (now wife) Anna.. I bought all their albums, had everything Linkin Park, i was such a fanatic! haha! OH OH! and I remember actually fighting with a girl from the next class.. We're like "Mike's mine! Get off!" "oh no no no, he's MINE! i saw him first!" ahh that kind of stuff.. So funny.. And i think, it's because of him, I started liking art! I used to hate art sooooo much! And then i found out that he was a graduate from Pasadena Art College, thought that i want i want i want i want to go there too coz mike was there, but no, I went to Limkokwing University of Creative Technology instead.. but learning graphic design, just like him, although he majored in illustration.. and ya! his art! AMAZING!!! I have not checked out his latest works, but his previous ones are CRAZY! Love them!

Haha, yea.. those were the days..

Those days, normal people were listening to Britney, Christina, music like those.. And i'm there with my Linkin Park (okay, Linkin Park is considered normal), Eminem (Eminem was not really normal at that time, alot of people hated him and his lyrics were.. hehhe), Slipknot, System of a Down, Kittie, P.O.D, Limp Bizkit (Wes Borland is so cool!), Blink 182, Disturbed, Sum41, and etc etc etc.. I didnt like Britney or Christina, hated them.. Didnt want to listen to anything pop.. Lol, weird kid..

Yea, maybe that's why I grew up to be such a troubled person.... Eminem with his lyrics, and Slipknot screaming through the whole record, Kittie are goth looking girls, Limp Bizkit has crude words as well.. Disturbed, mhh, the vocalist, looks evil, and their video clips @.@, i still like them though hehehh..

Haha, that's bout it this time.. bye!

project.frames

2010-09-05T11:12:00.009+08:00

The 'Change The World' event was held yesterday, I did not go, but I participated in the project called Project Frames (Click on the link to find out more about what this project is about). So, anyway, I teamed up with Ben and we made four frames!

This was the first one I made, it's too dark and the lines are too thick because I used a sharpie instead of an artline pen which totally spoilt the outcome, heh!

Here's the one done by Ben. Find the hidden DOMO! haha! oh yea, the reason why the domo is upside down is because I accidentally glued the frame stand upside down.. Sorry hunny heehee, didnt mean to sabotage your work =)

The second one done by me. I have some kind of obsession for peacocks nowadays. I don't know if it's the influence of Katy Perry's song "Peacock" or not.

And the last one, which benwaslazytodrawhisown, SO he asked me to draw half and he draw the other half. I got carried away (hehe) and drew something so detailed that when he came back home he was like "?????? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CONTINUE???" So, in the end, he just coloured the sun rays hehehe.. oh ya! and for this one, I learnt my lesson and used artline pen.

Our frames!

So yesterday, at the Change The World event, 300 frames were gathered, and joined together to make this (took these pics from Tham's facebook):

ha! here's mine!

dont know where's the other three haha.. overall, this was fun as I get to draw whatever I like and want. No brief which needs me to do exactly as stated.

animal.cruelty

2010-08-31T20:42:00.003+08:00

So, this is a letter from an Animal Shelter Manager.. I think that everyone should read this and be informed about what's happening there.. You think someone is gonna adopt your little pet Rover if you leave him there? Read this, think again..

A Letter from a Shelter Manager:

I think our society needs a huge " Wake-up" call. As a shelter manager, I am going to share a little insight with you all. ..a view from the inside if you will.

First off, all of you breeders/sellers should be made to work in the "back" of an animal shelter for just one day.

Maybe if you saw the life drain from a few sad, lost, confused eyes, you would change your mind about breeding
and selling to people you don't even know. That puppy you just sold will most likely end up in my shelter when
it's not a cute little puppy anymore.

So how would you feel if you knew that there's about a > 90% chance that dog will never walk out of the shelter
it is going to be dumped at? Purebred or not! About 50% of all of the dogs that are "owner surrenders" or "strays"
that come into my shelter are purebred dogs.

The most common excuses I hear are;

"We are moving and we can't take our dog (or cat).
" Really? Where are you moving to that doesn't allow pets
and why did you choose that place instead of a pet friendly
home?

Or they say "The dog got bigger than we thought it would".
How big did you think a German Shepherd would get?

"We don't have time for her". Really? I work a 10- 12 hour
day and still have time for my 6 dogs!

"She' s tearing up our yard". How about making her a part
of your family?

They always tell me: "We just don't want to have to stress
about finding a place for her we know she'll get adopted, she's
a good dog."

Odds are your pet won't get adopted & how stressful do you think being in a shelter is? Well, let me tell you,
your pet has 72 hours to find a new family from the moment you drop it off. Sometimes a little longer if the shelter
isn't full and your dog manages to stay completely healthy. If it sniffles, it dies.

Your pet will be confined to a small run/kennel in a room with about 25 other barking or crying animals. It will have
to relieve itself where it eats and sleeps.

It will be depressed and it will cry constantly for the family that abandoned it.

If your pet is lucky, I will have enough volunteers in that day to take him/her for a walk. If I don't, your pet
won't get any attention besides having a bowl of food slid under the kennel door and the waste sprayed out of its
pen with a high-powered hose.

If your dog is big, black or any of the "Bully" breeds (pit bull, rottie, mastiff, etc) it was pretty much
dead when you walked it through the front door. Those dogs just don't get adopted.

It doesn't matter how 'sweet' or 'well behaved' they are. If your dog doesn't get adopted within its 72 hours and the shelter is full, it will be destroyed.

If the shelter isn't full and your dog is good enough, and of a desirable enough breed it may get a stay of
execution, but not for long.

Most dogs get very kennel protective after about a week and are destroyed for showing aggression. Even the
sweetest dogs will turn in this environment.

If your pet makes it over all of those hurdles chances are it will get kennel cough or an upper respiratory infection
and will be destroyed because shelters just don't have the funds to pay for even a $100 treatment.

Here's a little euthanasia 101 for those of you that have never witnessed a perfectly healthy, scared animal
being "put-down"....

First, your pet will be taken from its kennel on a leash. They always look like they think they are going for a walk -
happy, wagging their tails.

Until, they get to "The Room", every one of them freak out and put the brakes on when we get to the door. It
must smell like death or they can feel the sad souls that are left in there, it's strange, but it happens with
every one of them.

Your dog or cat will be restrained, held down by 1 or 2 vet techs depending on the size and how freaked out they are.

Then a euthanasia tech or a vet will start the process. They will find a vein in the front leg and inject a lethal
dose of the "pink stuff".

Hopefully your pet doesn't panic from being restrained and jerk. I've seen the needles tear out of a leg and
been covered with the resulting blood and been deafened by the yelps and screams.

They all don't just "go to sleep", sometimes they spasm for a while, gasp for air and defecate on themselves.

When it all ends, your pet's corpse will be stacked like firewood in a large freezer in the back with all of the
other animals that were killed waiting to be picked up like garbage.

What happens next? Cremated? Taken to the dump? Rendered into pet food? You'll never know and it probably
won't even cross your mind. It was just an animal and you can always buy another one, right?

I hope that those of you that have read this are bawling your eyes out and can't get the pictures out of your
head I deal with everyday on the way home from work.

I hate my job, I hate that it exists & I hate that it will always be there unless you people make some changes and
realize that the lives you are affecting go much further than the pets you dump at a shelter.

Between 9 and 11 MILLION animals die every year in shelters and only you can stop it. I do my best to save every life I can but rescues are always full, and there are more animals coming in everyday than there are homes.

My point to all of this: DON'T BREED OR BUY WHILE SHELTER PETS DIE!

Hate me if you want to. The truth hurts and reality is what it is.

I just hope I maybe changed one person's mind about breeding their dog, taking their loving pet to a shelter, or
buying a dog.

I hope that someone will walk into my shelter and say "I saw this and it made me want to adopt." THAT
WOULD MAKE IT WORTH IT!

='(

So goooo, save an animal now!

Good things are meant for sharing!

I've been addicted to this song since MTV Worldstage, it's crazy! From her new album Teenage Dream.. The song is catchy and naughty, has an addictive beat and all that stuff.. Check out other songs from this album like Hummingbird Heartbeat, Firework, Last Friday Night (TGIF), Not Like the Movies, The One That Got Away and Pearl.. And of course, the released singles California Girls and Teenage Dream.. =)

did.i.waste.my.life

2010-08-18T19:45:00.005+08:00

did i waste my life?

I got bored doing, whatever i'm supposed to do now like, Trina's work, think bout the multimedia exhibition, the four frames and graphic design assignment soooo i don't know how and where i started but i was looking at my high school, St. Francis Convent, choir team performance from the previous years.. They're good, no doubt, but that was before.. when i came back to KK and went to their school concert, sorry to say, they've lost their shine.. Well, that's besides the point.. Anyway, I was thinking, why didn't i join choir before? I wanted to during form 1.. and even already planned to audition.. but then i was too coward to audition and missed out all the fun and stuff.. And then made up some stupid excuse like "oh, that will just disturb my studies".. well, not to say that i actually can sing and will go through the audition but, I never did actually TRY.. And now, i'm already too late.. i felt like i wasted my life..

Then i went on to watch videos during I.U. Day.. Their performances.. and ARGH! i soooooo totally HAD to be sick and vomiting during my form 5 I.U.Day right? And to be the Interact Club President and NOT be present, ARGH!! I did manage to paint something and had it shown there though.. Luckily, I was there when i was in Form 4.. At least I did feel how it felt like and experience it a bit.. But still, i felt like i wasted that point of my life.. what's the use regretting now that it's too late..

And i remember, I wanted to join the Debate team as a researcher because I was too coward to talk and didn't have any confidence to be on the main team, but I didnt.. And I wanted to be a part of the Drama team, but I didnt..

So, high school.. what did i ACTUALLY do?

Well, i was good in chess.. The best was probably getting sixth in the State competition.. Still, i wasnt as good as my seniors, Archanah and Lizzie.. But, after they went, Boeing will definitely, always win the chess competition antara rumah sukan HAHA! There's this one thing I feel like saying now, about chess.. Seriously, why do people think this is a boring game? I think it's exciting and challenging although it hurts my brains soooooo much ESPECIALLY if the game went on til an hour.. And after a day of chess everyone around you will look like chess pieces, and then you'll have to continue again the next day.. I remembered during Peringkat Negeri (State Level) we had to play til night, oh gosh.. hmm, I feel like playing chess again.. My skills are totally rusted now and i think i kinda forgot my opening..

Anywayyyyyy, next.. Karate.. I think I was kinda good, not the best of course.. Used to train on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.. i do miss the performances we used to do during the school sports day.. best oo! I remember the part I became the "heroine" and kicking the @#$% out off 5 people was it? Using sticks somemore.. Cool kunun HAHA! I love doing kata.. I hate kumite which is fighting.. I MISS KARATE! I stopped after i got my black belt, stupid.. and i'm too lazy to move my butt nowadays haha.. haihhhhh........

Besides that... well, "study" i guess.. i guess you could call last minute studying "studying".. i guess i "rocked" at it.. Lowest is getting no.8 in class, highest no.1.. Taking 12 subjects... Not bad......... WHY CAN'T I DO TRINA'S SIMPLE ASSIGNMENTS THEN?????? UGH!!! But I do regret though.. If last minute studying got me those results, imagine if i REALLY studied............. dang. I did waste my life..

Although i'm quite glad i was "known" to be creative and know how to draw well, although I was in the science stream.. and yeah, i was good at math.. getting 100% was easy at that time, but now i can't even do simple calculation in a short time.. and even if i did, sometimes the answer i give is wrong HAHAHAHAHAHA..

I think I did not totally waste my life but, there are some things that i knew i could do or do better, but didnt do.. And it's such a waste.. Hurggghhhh...... Well, now, I'm gonna graduate from Uni soon.. and what have i achieved?????? NOTHING!!!!!! Just gotta do well at the end of this sem, may the exhibition be a success and run smoothly.. Multimedia exhibition leader huh.. Yea, we'll see.. I won't want to regret that moment.. I would want to look back and say..

IT WAS A SUCCESS, WE ROCKED!

Now, if only I would be less lazy..

2010-08-17T21:06:00.002+08:00

I've been a lazy bum for the past monthSSSSSS, and still am now eventhough the semester has already started. HAIHH! Am I not supposed to do my very best this semester? Why am I still lazing aroundddddd.. And only got ONE idea for Graphic Design first assignment, which I just suddenly "thought of" and decided to do that, without giving it much thought or even bother to research.. And Multimedia.. Leader for the multimedia exhibition but all I come up with are normal, not even special ideas and the whole thing is sooooo unorganized right now due to my laziness. What is a leader suppose to do actually? Why am I the leader anyway grrr =.= ......... I seriously need to pull myself together and stop lazing and dazing..

Besides that.. Hey, the guys from Inception.. I seriously need you guys to plant ideas into my head..

Alrite.. i've been trying to figure this out for about an hour.. Been browsing through the HTML but i still can't figure out how to create a space between the posts and the sidebar.. Since this is using the "upgraded" blogger template as the base, i cant seem to find a way to do this in google without reverting to the old template.. Tried adding "margin" in various values but.. cant seem to find the right one..

HELP.

MTV.WORLDSTAGE.2010

2010-08-01T11:57:00.005+08:00

MTV WORLDSTAGE 2010 happened yesterday!!

It rained though.. and the bad part was the waiting in between acts.. PLUS there were technical difficulties due to the rain, and we had to wait almost an hour between Wonder Girls and Tokio Hotel and also between Tokio Hotel and Katy Perry.. My legs were hurting, back was aching BUT despite all that... IT WAS WORTH IT!

Bunkface were up first.. They rocked songs like Bunk Anthem, Prom Queen, Through My Window, Revolusi, Ekstravaganza and Situasi (im not sure if i missed out any).. They ended with Situasi which I thought was good if the crowd actually participated..

Here they are:

Next were the Wonder Girls..

I'm not a fan of them.. So i thought their performance was just mediocre compared to the others, but i may just be a little biased.. Although i was quite surprised that they do not look as hot as in their MVs.. Thumbs-up for their entrance though, they came inside cages.. Of course, and naturally, they ended with their famous "i want nobody, no body but you *clap clap point clap clap*" in their gold outfits..

Next up was Tokio Hotel.. THESE GUYS ARE AWESOME! i'm not just saying that coz i'm a fan (which i'm not, really).. The lead singer who I dunno what his name is.. His voice was good and he looked so much like Adam Lambert (a thinner version though)

See, top is him yesterday, and on the bottom is Adam Lambert at his show in London..

Tokio hotel vocalist:

Adam Lambert:

Their stage:

The vibe during their performance was actually really awesome and energetic.. Two thumbs up for Tokio Hotel.. The bad part bout their performance is, because i'm not really a fan, i do not know the words to their songs, so.. can't really sing-a-long.. But still, they're good!

Last but not least, the spotlight of the event! KATY PERRY!!! Woooo!!!! The person EVERYONE has been waiting to see.. I mean, really, honestly, i cant imagine someone coming here and say that they wanted to see ONLY Bunkface or Wonder Girls or Tokio Hotel.. Come on, it's KATY PERRY!!! I CAME TO SEE KATY PERRY!!!

I'm trying to constrain myself from typing in all CAPS (oh, and the exclamation marks), can't contain my excitement! haha! She was hot, sexy, naughty and everything Katy.. Definitely awesome and too good to be missed! She performed hits like California Girls, I kissed a girl, Hot N Cold, her newest single Teenage Dream, Waking Up in Vegas and Thinking of You.. Also, a new song from her new album called "Peacock".. It was funny, before she performed the song she said "Don't worry, it's only about a bird", we were like okaaaayyyyy, wth.. And then the lyrics go "I wanna see your peacock cock cock, your peacock cock cock".. Hahaha! Totally amazing!

All in all, i was exhausted and hungry by the end of the night which was around 1am plus.. Weirdly, there wasn't any traffic jam at all.. Ben and I were so tired that we went home straight away and ordered delivery hahaha!

It was a great night and... I LOVE KATY PERRY!!!

Thank you Aunty Na for the tickets!! yeah!!

dear.semester.seven

2010-06-30T09:41:00.010+08:00

semester seven... fuhh...

well, the semester started off just fine for me with my lamborghini winning something (which, i dont think i will get the prize now because of some &*!^#&@* scandal) and then, my wings to fly cd..

Then some (most) of us went to London.. and had such a great time there that we did not even touch our assignments.. I think London was the most enjoyable part of the semester (duh!)..

So, due to our work being "left behind" in London, we came back and started rushing assignments like crazy.. after coming back we had an exhibition campaign presentation.. Mine was, Inkredible.. The outcome was just mediocre for me.. it wasnt as outstanding like... TzeYee's group for example.. well, just my opinion.. for the exhibition campaign, i was supposed to come up with the promo items and ambient design.. here they are:

Luckily before going to London, i printed most of the items already.. I still remember coming back from London and having like what, ten? assignments with around a month left and more than half are 0% progress.. GOSH!

Okay, then i had a multimedia shortfilm project, which i luckily shot before London.. The outcome, damn, I want to blame it on the lousy camera quality, but i wont.. i gotta take responsibility for what i've done.. well, let's just say, the film didnt turn out as good as i thought i could do.. and that being the reason why i did not post it in anywhere, just yet.. although i was quite shocked it made it into the Limkokwing Open Day exhibition.. It's a story about a girl who is sexually abused by her dad and eventually commited suicide.. Screenshots!

Trina's Design Analysis, we had to do a Research Proposal and also a journal.. the research proposal, i think i only did good on getting to interview famous designers and typographers.. other than that, it was just normal.. and i didnt really get to really arrive to a real conclusion.. For the journal, it wasn't much, but i tried to at least "design" it..

and the other dividers had the same design, just with different colours..

then Animation! wow.. both on zero progress when i came back from London.. And, remember, im an amateur in Adobe After Effects, only learnt it this sem! @.@

Move my name project screenshots:

That was done in around three days plus? Not posting the full thing as well, because i dont like it.. hehe..

And this is the 2nd project, the FDI multimedia promo.. Still, only mediocre..

Final assignment for Graphic Design! it's a group work by Yang, JingWen and I.. SUPERDESIGNERS FTW!! haha..

We did this in around four-five days.. For this project, i really liked Waye's group video.. good job guys! you can see it here. I like the concept and feel =)

And the final assignment of the semester...... Daniel's e-journal.. fuh!

I liked how i designed this one.. it's very clean and simple.. At least i ended the semester with something im satisfied with.. haha..

That's about it for semester seven, assignment wise.. That's what that has been stressing me out for the previous few weeks.. And tied me up in the house, in my room..

but, besides all of that, i actually had fun.. Work hard, play harder.. i think that's kinda like what we did.. i'm glad i went to London or else, this whole semester wont be as fun.. I'm glad we had fun lecturers this time around.. Khalil is, as usual, very flexible lol.. since's he has been our lecturer last semester and now he's both my multimedia and animation lecturer.. New lecturers this semester, Trina is a very kind but strict lecturer.. and Daniel is very helpful and yea, all that stuff.. im satisfied with all of them.. together with great classmates.. it made this semester great! I wont forget this semester =)

breathe.a.sigh.of.relief

2010-06-26T16:57:00.004+08:00

fuhhhhhh~..

I could say that it felt like i've been freed from a cage when i handed Daniel both CDs for his work, the designer promo video and my e-journal..

I AM FINALLY FREE FROM SEMESTER SEVEN! But, final semester is coming in a month.. My guess, it will be more stressful than semester seven hmph..

This felt like my most stressful semester ever.. shouting, crying, frustrating, etc.. Although it was all of those, but ironically, i think that it's the best or possibly most enjoyable semester for now..

I do not want to think about how semester eight is gonna be, for now anyway.. i know, i know, plan early and all those stuff but.. sabar sikit la ok.. lemme breath first can?

For now, i just want to relax, de-stress and enjoy.. it's been a while..

and hey, anyone wanna cook for me some good food? i've lost a lot of weight these few weeks, my pants are all loose and keep slipping down my waist =.=

i will be reviewing the whole semester in my next post.. but for now, i just want to rest..

damn.it.

2010-06-18T22:10:00.002+08:00

exactly what i feel now.

2010-06-01T18:17:00.003+08:00

You've been quiet recently, what's the matter, why?

Is it that something's making you unhappy?

I heard you've been lonely recently, a bit confused, a bit out of sorts

Yet I can't be at your side

What you want - I know, but I just can't give you my all

But what I can give you is not what you want

We aren't suitable for each other, but I don't want to admit loss

Many of the times we embraced each other, I felt like crying

Many times it's explained that these situations are just new beginnings

I feel that this is one of those times where it ended long ago

Don't want any more restrictions, don't want any more pain

Next time there'll be a better road of love

The lyrics just touches me.. Gosh, when was the last time there was something emo on my blog? Have i been less emotional? No, i have not.

p/s: you might recognize it as a chinese song, because it is. It's just that i don't understand chinese thus, the translation =)

Yesterday, Ben and i went to i-city after dinner coz i was kinda too lazy to do my work (and planned to do it the whole day today).. and coz we have never been to i-city before..

So, okay, we arrived and was greeted by this lighted-trees-made-fully-out-of-electronic-stuff view..

The whole place was filled with lights. There was even a bazaar there, which wasn't even interesting..

So, people were wearing lighted stuff on their heads and holding lighted stuff.

If you're wondering why i dont sound the least bit excited, well, that's because im not.. i arrived there and was like "ah.. okay... so this is the i-city everyone's been talking bout.. no big deal".. okay, honestly, it does look kinda cool from far.. but when i arrived, it wasnt much really.. And to top it all off, i guess most people when they arrive, they'll be ooh-ing and aah-ing coz it's really not something we normally see, and come on, how often do you see a place with lights as it's trees? well, for me, my first reaction to this place was:

"hmm, so this is how the world will look like if we do not take care of our trees starting now.."

and that said, in a negative kind of way.. And NO, it's not real trees decorated with lights okay? It's purely made out of those electronic stuff which i will never understand..

Honestly, i do not want our world to be turned into some kind of technology jungle (it's already happening though).. No, im not backward minded.. It's good that we're advancing, but please dont infect nature. Nature is beautiful as it is. I was born in a world, filled with trees and greenery.. I would not want to die in a world, completely in electronics and metal.. im not an environmentalist, i never did participate in earth hour, but i am doing my part in reducing plastic use though..

What im trying to say here is, i do not want this to be the image of the future:

This is definitely more beautiful in all ways:

For the last day.. One would think we'll go somewhere exciting or something.. but..... we went to Tate Modern.. accompany Daniel to fulfill his dream..

All sad, it's our last day T_T..

Went back to Belsize after that to check-out and go to the airport...

This is London Heathrow Airport:

And a picture with my best friend.. Pret.. i probably wont miss you haha! we'll meet again some other time ya..

and a pic before we leave.. *sniff sniff*

London totally ruined my skin, especially my legs.. look:

totally disgusting.. looks like scales..

Our transit at Doha Airport..

Was totally not ready for the hot air.. and 'brown' scenery..

And then we're back to KLIA..

boo hoo hooo........ It didnt even feel like 2 weeks.. we were already adapting to the life there.. morning, walk to belsize park station, use the tube to our destination, activities the whole day, come back by tube and be in time for dinner, dinner eat, then our free and easy time.. argh..

had good and bad memories in london.. alot of unforgettable ones too.. im grateful that i went with you bunch of people.. made it a whole lot more fun! Really great to meet new people like Haadi (how's Tim btw? XD), Yun Ha, Nurul, Atika, Parveen and Michelle.. hope to see you guys around campus! Thanks to the lecturers who took care of us, mr syahrul and daniel..

And like Daniel said, we will all wait when Daniel opens his own company, employ all of us and bring us all to a company trip ya? =D

Things will be back to normal for us now in Malaysia.. Haadi wont need to be the glove supplier anymore.. I wont need to wear Daniel's single handed LV glove anymore.. Daniel won't need to be the water supplier anymore.. We all won't need to wear few layers of clothes and few layers of leggings anymore.. No more complaining it's too cold (it will be complaining it's too hot from now on).. No more Primark.. No more H&M.. No more fast and efficient tube which comes every 1-5 mins (back to waiting for half an hour and suffering hot in the KTM).. No more seeing Pret in every corner (although this could be a good thing), No more Camden Town, Leicester Square, etc.. No more hanging out in the parks, and more more more of these no mores.. T_T

At least i wont need to eat bread, pasta and all those EVERYDAY anymore.. Cant take it, haha.. love malaysian food.. well, to be specific, RICE..

All i can say now is.. welcome back to reality now! Gotta start adjusting again.. if day one of our itinerary in London is "Free and easy, Adjust to weather".. then it will be my itinerary for day one in Malaysia as well.. boo hoo..

The next day it's day twelve for us..

We had to be at LUCT London campus by 2.30pm.. so, before that, we went SHOPPING!!! PRIMARK!!! woohoo!

Of course, they were all shocked with what we brought back.. I would be shocked too if i were them.. look:

ah, well, maybe cant really see in pictures.. but, yea, we bought alooooottttt.. We had a farewell gathering in campus that day.. danced around crazily..

Decorated this,

into this:

"i love soho", well, i've never really been to Soho really.. Probably one of the things i regret not doing during the trip.. there are lesbian and gay bars there.. oh,well..

After the campus gathering, we went to Green Park for the last time *sniff sniff* and played some games there.. really cool, enjoyed it.. MISS IT!!!

and for dinner......

WOOHOO!!! DUCK RICE!!!! my friend recommended it and i would soooooo totally regret it if i did not come here to eat.. it was nice! love, love, love~

Day thirteen!

Free and easy time for us.. 2nd last day at London T_T

We went to find for some "London food" to eat for lunch.. Then we went shopping some more!

Oxford Street somemore and Harrods too! and for the first time, i bought something from a really branded store.. omg..

Burberry! first time okay, have to capture the moment.. and it's in LONDON! Bought Burberry perfume.. i love it!

Then, for our last dinner in London *sniff sniff*.. We went to eat in Camden Town..

The Ice Wharf, is that what this place is called? I have no idea.. hahaha..

The food was not nice at all.. too dry and hard.. Oh, well.. It's not like they didnt warn us that London food is horrible.. The best i had was really the Duck Rice.. haha..

Found mummy and daddy here too..

With the I love London gang XD

After that, we went to Saatchi Gallery:

This is yang yang's favourite painting.. hahahahahaha..

This room was cool.. the part below, it's actually a reflection.. it totally looked sooooo real.. until you finally realized it's oil..

This is made out of a probably a million other pics.. guess what those other pics are?

Sorry for the nudity, but.. yea.. it's made out of these..

After that, we went to Chelsea Football Club.. Not a fan of Chelsea or even football, but i think, they did something great with the wall.. Enjoyed soooo much taking pics there.. Very interactive..

Sugardaddy XD kidding, kidding..

Then after this, we went the Kings Cross Station.. Which is supposedly the "Harry Potter station"..

I'm off to Hogwarts! bye!

Went outside, and spotted this cloud.. Cool rite? no photoshop, i swear..

End of this day!

Day 10!

We went to the Museum of Brands, Packaging & Advertising..

It was dark, so most pictures are not visible so, i'm not posting them.. It was kinda interesting in a way, although i think me, jingwen and yangyang didnt really pay too much attention there =)

buuuutttt.. at night~

We went sightseeing! Yea, this was a freezing nightmare! but it was totally totally fun!!!

Tower of London:

Tower Bridge:

And the London Eye..

Seriously it was freaking cold that night.. I guessed it was like 1-4 degrees! we reached home at around.... what time was that? 2-3am? Took some wrong buses, stuck in the middle of nowhere and it was a long long long journey home, and i wanted to pee so badly!!!! plus i was shiveringgggggg.. it was a great, great experience though.. although i was a bit too emo that day..

That's about it for day nine and ten!

malaysia.im.back

2010-05-10T01:08:00.002+08:00

im back to kuala lumpur, malaysia.. not excited at all.. first thing i realized is of course... the weather.. omg.. stepped out of the airport.. i felt as if im in another planet.. lol, kinda exaggerated but, i guess all of us who went to London felt the same.. there's no cold air, the air is heavy and static so, it was like there's no air at all.. and we were only in london for 2 weeks!! omg.. i'm sorry, kampung abit okay..

London Day Eight!

Omg, it's already day eight, it's been more than a week that i'm in London but i felt like i've been here looonnngggeeerrrr than that..

It's a Sunday, we were supposed to go to Petticoat Market and Bricklane Market but guess what? it rained.. so, plan cancelled! Of course we have a back-up plan.. We went to Westfield instead! More shopping!

Well, we went in, and there were of course the basic Topshop, H&M, Zara, New Look, Next, Bershka and etc etc, all seen and went before in Oxford Street and around Harrods.. They're everywhere.. and we STILL buy things although we went in those shops so many times..

BUT today, i did not buy anything.. didn't really see anything that catches my eye or etc.. all i had was this dim sum lunch which didnt really taste too nice:

but it was okay.. because at night..... i had THESE!!!

ALOOOTTT!!! there's almost every meat.. duck, chicken, pork, beef! cool.. it's been a while since i've eaten home-cooked food..

Mum asked me to come for dinner in my granduncle's place at East Croydon, somewhere at the outskirts of London or something.. And told me to bring 2 friends.. It was supposed to be only Miin Yuann coming but... another one was asked to come too..

and luckily, if not, no one would finish eating the crabs..

Mum cooked the crabs and they said that it was delicious!

Here's my granduncle, dad, mum, aunty bikyee, uncle seekan and grandma..

here's aunty bikyee, me, miinyuann, daniel and uncle seekan in the living room.. quite cozy..

Overall, it was a good night.. I was definitely very full at the end of the night.. And thanks to Aunty Bikyee for sending us all back to Belsize =)

End of day eight!

london.day.five.six.seven

2010-05-02T08:45:00.015+08:00

waiting for lunchtime!

After lunch, we went to trafalgar square:

Overthere, we visited the National Gallery and Portrait Gallery..

Saw this girl with a hairstyle i really really really like.. cant really see in this picture.. i was so pai seh to take her pic, then Daniel went to ask her hahahahaha and the girl oso look very pai seh oso la..

After that, we went to see the Big Ben:

and London Eye

Saw this on the road too:

A hummer limo.. lol, and it's pink XD

That's about it for day five =)

For day six!

Picture of the day!

Well, we went to Abbey Road:

The road made famous by The Beatles (or something like that).. especially this picture:

This is jet daniel yuann adora version:

hahahaha.. ok, color correction fail, but whatever.. Anyway, there's the abbey studio just beside as well, and the gate's wall are covered with writings from fans and more.. so, i took the chance to do some vandalism of my own..

went to the beatles cafe afterwards..

After that, we made our way to Baker's Street which is the home of Sherlock Holmes or something like that, im not sure.. i just know that it's related to him..

That's sherlock holmes behind:

and, some sherlock holmes silhouette or something decorated the whole tube station.. it was cool, and it would be a shame if we did not take a picture with it:

We went to Madamme Tussauds but didnt go in as it was expensive..

So, day seven, is a saturday.. free and easy time.. we all went to Portobello Market!! I love Portobello market! alot of antiques and nice stuff there.. quite long too..

Love the clouds formation, looks like a love shape..

Found a police hat haha:

And look behind, Chloe! my name XD

And, act "cool" at Portobello Market:

After Portobello, we went to Oxford Street again!! Yay! We love Oxford Street! I dunno how many times we have to go there til we dont buy anything there.. Every time we go there, we sure buy something =)

After Oxford, we went to find Malaysian Hall, in the rain, and it was so cold!! And we were like walking around, lost, in the cold, windy and raining weather.. we finally found it and OMG.. i've never realized i missed Malaysian food so much.. Seriously, all we eat here in london is bread, pasta, fish and chips, those kinda food.. London food really makes us miss Malaysian food.. like seriously, i never thought i'd say that i miss eating Malaysian food..

This is how the Malaysian Hall looks like, it looks Malaysian.. really.. for once, i didnt feel like im in London at all:

And this is my food:

Cost me £6.50.. it's crazy.. i could get the same wit RM6.50, maybe even more.. but, we have no choice.. sniff sniff..

We went home after that, drenched in the rain coz nobody brought any umbrella.. Thanks Jet for lending me your jumper.. hehe, sorry too, coz it's so wet after that..

london.day.four

2010-04-29T04:15:00.004+08:00

Finally i'm on par with the day that i'm here.. i'm blogging about day four on day four haha..

Day four, tiring as usual.. but, there was one period where we all forgot we were tired.. talk bout it later..

First on, we went to the British Museum today.. ARGH another museum! Well, yea, as i've heard, there's only museum museum museum and more museums in London.. So, yea.. Anyway, this is a study trip, so, what should we expect right..

This is the British Museum.. Looks cool.. Well, inside there's actually alot to see.. was supposed to be interesting, but i think we were all too bored of museums already..

Anyway, here's some other pics from the museum:

I found Alexander the Great('s head):

Venus:

Someone with a cock:

And two men with their cock cut off:

I wonder why were they cut off.. hmm.. someone with perverted reasons? ehehe, kidding.. they were all small anyway XD

So, those are all the pics i have from the museum.. i only have 42 pics today which is a small amount compared to other days where i have 100+.. if you think that's bad, some of my friends have till 600 pics in one day.. hahaha..

Anyway, after the museum, we walked to Pollock's Toy Museum, which we didnt actually went in to the museum but only looked around the shop below there.. There's mostly only classic toys there.. i kinda wanted to buy the music box, but i didnt buy it coz.. i dunno why.. i really liked it actually.. oh well..

After that we walked to the Photographer's Gallery, which was small, and we spent maybe like around less than an hour there..

we were too anxious to get out of the Photographer's Gallery because..... it's just by Oxford Street!! what's the big deal about oxford street? well, Topshop, Miss Selfridge, H&M, Zara, Dorothy Perkins and many many many many more, are just next to each other and.... they are ALL really huge with multiple floors!! Topshop/Topman itself has 4 floors and is REALLY huge!! So totally not like KL..

That's the good news for us.. the bad news is.. we only have 2 hours there.. NOOO!!!! 2 hours Oxford Street is definitely not enough!! Since i had to shop for 2 people, me n ben, it was crazy.. i was like running everywhere, men's department and women's department.. i cant even look around properly.. basically, it sucked, for me.. i want more time.. in the end, i was in H&M and was looking at two shoes.. thinking which one to buy.. hard to decide! coz, the 1st shoe, i liked the colour, it's blue.. but the 2nd shoe, is kinda high cut, and i dun have that kind of shoe, and it's black.. hmmmm...

in the end, i bought both.. the blue one was £7.99 and the black one was £9.99, equals around £18 which is RM90.. not so bad right? but, i want clothes...... oh, and the good thing is, with a student card, i can actually get from 10 to 15% discount in selected stores.. for topshop it's 15%.. cool or what? AND.. there's this refund policy.. that if you dont like what you bought, you can return it in 1month, just bring the original receipt and the item in a re-sellable condition and they'll refund your money.. damn cool!

Well, after the 2 hours ONLY in Oxford Street, we had to go home to be in time for dinner.. hmph~.. planning to go there again in this 2 weeks! definitely!

london.day.three

2010-04-29T02:49:00.009+08:00

London Day three!

Supposed to blog about this yesterday, but i was so tired.. and anyway, the internet was kinda up and down at that time too.. so, forget bout it, just blog about it today!

Well, day three was a typical sight-seeing + museum day out.. Nothing too special.. Morning, woke up at 6am too.. After breakfast, we headed to the tube nearest to us:

We went to Tower Hill station to see the Tower of London and also the Tower Bridge.. Here's some pics that i took:

Tower Bridge!

And this is the Tower of London! You know what, i thought it would be something tall and slim like Rapunzel's tower or something haha..

After this, we headed to....

.. the Design Museum!

It's not that big, luckily, coz our legs are soooo tired.. we're walking alooooottttt EVERYDAY! Someone started a joke that after this trip, they could walk from Seri Kembangan to Cyberjaya with no problems at all! Not possible, Malaysia is too hot! It's great, the weather here at this time, you walk so much, yet you wont sweat! Although sweating is considered healthy.. oh well..

Anyway.. here are some pictures from the Design Museum:

This room was cool.. Those things stuck on the wall are actually....

.. photographs! i like it!

This laptop was designed to be body-friendly.. Meaning, sometimes a design can be nice, but due to your body reaction to certain shapes and stuff, your body might reject it and think it's not nice eventhough your brain tells you that it's nice..

A foldable 3-pin plug..

This is an ipod touch/iphone app which reacts to your touch and plays a note.. quite fun..

After the Design Museum, we went to have lunch.. After lunch, we headed to Tate Modern.. On the way, we took alot of pics..

This is one of them..

I like the colours hahaha.. All other pics are in Yang Yang's camera..

So, this is Tate Modern.. It's also a museum, or kinda like an art gallery..

I especially loved the Andy Warhol part of the gallery.. Here are some pics:

This is another part of the exhibition which i found interesting and nice:

And this one, I thought it's "The God" but it's actually, "The End"..

And that's "The End" of Tate Modern..

On the way back, we walked by St. Paul's Cathedral..

And this is a picture with Mr. Syahrul "with the building, with the building".. hahahahahaha.. sorry, inside joke..

That's about it for day three!
