OFFICIALLY 20 *sniff* *sniff*
I AM OFFICIALLY 20 *sniff* *sniff* I am so old! Well, I had lots of expectations for my birthday as you could have seen from my birthday list. And guess what??? I did not receive any of it. BUT nonetheless it was a wonderful birthday. I had calls from Sabah and Australia which brightened my day...night actually...midnight calls. Thanks Michelle!! Lots of smses from friends...thank you so much. Ada org so jahat call pun tidak walaupun so lama din see...ARGH but who is to complain right. I opened my one present from a friend...it wasnt considered as a birthday present cuz it was a souvenir from Yemen.
We had a nice birthday family-style party at my old apartment where I am considered quite the ma ma. Guess what? I had to work the whole morning before that...waiting hand and foot for damn rich people who ended up wasting RM200 of food and giving us extra work of cleaning untouched settings that took the whole morning to arrange. Such a waste! I only reached home to cook for my party at almost 9. My poor guests were already starving by then.....kasihan betul. Anyway, midnight came with lots of dancing and screaming and laughing. Wonderful wonderful day!
The next day awoke to a day trip to KLCC for Charlie And the Chocolate factory movie bust for the 5 of us. Yes the same people from the night before and a additional big bro, Bryan. All my other close friends couldnt make it cuz they were too busy with other stuff....*sniff* *sniff* so sad...my memorable day of turning 20 is attended by 5 people BUT I AM GLAD. It was a nice time. My 'lui lui' (which means daughter but she is already 18....its a adopted fairy tale thingie...real long story lazy wanna explain)bought me cake and belgian choc ice blended from Coffee Bean. Then a nice dinner at Chilis in KLCC....dui Mr. MCP said the food there is good....blech....he lied. So far I think his food reviews cannot be taken for.
Here are a few food reviews from me...tell me if u agree k!
1. Best T.G.I.F is in Subang Parade...it has the best steak and best service.
2. Best 'Chilis' is in Mid Valley...the food is excellent...the juices not dilluted and the salsa sauce too....nice and chunky....
3. Madam Kwan's is a waste of time when it comes to recreating the hawker food into a modern society
4. Kim Gary gives out a weird taste of western and eastern with their 'lo mai kai'(READ: rice dumpling) with cheese
5. If you like Malaysianized pizzas go to Pizza Hut and Shakeys but you want something with the taste more original towards our original Italiano pizzas go to Domino's or the California Pizza Kitchen.....
But don't complain bout the taste....different people just have different opinions. Anyway, thank you everyone for making my birthday so memorable. I am dissapointed with a few aspects but that is the point from now on NO MORE BIRTHDAY WISH LISTS...it makes you expect too much!
Happy Birthday to meeeeee...SOON
Exactly 7 more days to the dreaded day of maturity...ARGH! Truthfully I am afraid of being OLD. Do you all that went through this also face as I am now? Dengan tidak malunya, I am going to post my first ever wish list for my birthday this year. I'm turning 20...the BIG two zero and I am so terrified. This symbolizes the end of my teenage years and trust me all the things I have been going through is making me look like a 23 year old. Many people recently have commented on that and GOSH does that hurt! *this post is changed cuz someone actually thought my bday was today...proves how much misunderstanding can happen kakaka*
1. A few very important people in my life that will actually remember my birthday.
( esp. there is one in China who seems to be too busy and another currently holidaying in Rome who seems to have forgotten that I ever existed...and another that just returned from the Phillipines and decided to have a relapse of short term memory loss!) ~ My wish is at least they remember and a simple sms will do. This people sometimes don't understand that I miss them a lot and it hurts me that they don't feel the same way. For those people who remembered it...THANK YOU SO MUCH!2. A bunch of roses or daisies from the appropriate person!
But I don't know who it is yet. ~ this can be put on hold3. To be prized with all A's this semester.
I know that is the stupidest wish for a birthday girl to make but I really feel the urge for it. Dear Lord you hear my plea!4. To be surprised with a surprise!
It's been a real long time a person surprised me...the last time was when Mitchu gave me chocolate and that was number 3. Number 2 was a birthday cake and number 1 was a necklace in a CD from my bro. I miss that overwhelming love of knowing the person when through that much trouble to hide it from me. *sigh* 5. To be taken out on a REAL date
not some 'teenage-anything-will-do' kind of thing. Another fantasy!6. That everyone is HAPPY especially those around me.
I don't want to see them in pain and cry at all. I want the best of them and that makes me the happiest! Don't take this wrong its not that I am irritated with comforting them or anything I just don't want them to suffer. I adore them too much.7. To be treated with respect.
This comes with that stupid sales woman's attitude towards me and my new found friend at the Art Gallery in Starhill. Everything she scolded us...on blocking the view of the "buyer" towards the painting...he was damn standing in front of the main door...he had the view of everything....and also looking at a pinted out "so called LIMITED EDITION" of the biography of the painter...yeah rite...I wasn't born yesterday...printed stuff can be reprinted...IDIOT. The painting was only...Rm1,500 who says I can't afford it? Just not now mah. DAMNIT8. To be loved and less lonely...truthfully in need of attention and affection.
I miss a lot of people this past few days. I do not know what's wrong with me. Fiona says I am overworked...which I am...and I am feeling so lonely and emotional. I hate being like this. I hate being so NOT in control of what is happening emotionally. Poeple even told me that I look weak! I never look weak.....NOT ME9. A ticket to Italy or Rome or South Africa
....hahhahaha. I am so damn mad la. It's just a fantasy. I can dream...can't I? Just allow me this few times to pleasure myself with the possibilities of such travel. Even though this year will be filled with domestic travel but I am glad.10. A boyfriend?
I mean that's the usual request I have every year but think for this year and many to come...NEH! No more pain and no more complicated stuff. I will just go wild with my assignments. I think I would ask for enrolment in a DANCE CLASS...
I miss dancing so so much!
*NEW*
11. Dinner in Victoria Station.
I have been dreaming of eating there for such a long long time. Wonder if it will come true...the so called special recipe for steak...YUM....*drooling*
12. A bottle of my favourite perfume.
It's an expensive gift that I know so its like fantasy world. Guess what I had this sudden inkling for Burberry 'Weekend' and of cause my all time favourite of 'Romance' from Ralph Lauren...but someone told me its a mommy's perfume *sigh*13. A full body massage with nice lavander aromatherapy.
Been so tensed up lately I keep waking up to horrible neck aches. It's so horrible till I cant turn my head 5 degrees just to look at a friend sitting next to me!
14. Go for rock climbing in the summit & also obtain my diving license.
Gosh I am so wild
Ok ok...my day dreaming hours are over. Back to the boring drizzle of assignments and working....
Have you ever....
Have you ever felt the painful squeeze of your heart as you see a friend in pain?
Have you ever felt the want to kiss away the sorrow of a crying friend?
Have you ever looked at a person better than you in so many ways therefore wishing to be in their shoes?
Have you ever noticed that that perfect person actually has flaws?
Have you ever fallen in love with a person everyone including you know that you are not supposed to?
Have you continued to hope in something that was long gone?
Have you ever wished that God would be less cruel and grant you that one wish that He always seem to forget?
I have...and I guess there is where our common ground lies!
Long time no see!
Things have been going real crazy lately and I am so so busy with so many things. I have been so forgetful till I even once forgot to do 6 things in one morning...horrible aint I?
Today is Jakarta's Independace Day tapi we Malaysians pandai2 pulak put today as our Hari Jalur Gemilang. Now, I'm watching all the Indonesians in my uni sing their national anthem in the plaza...they are so patriotic. I admire their love for their country and their enthusiasm and unity for it.....!!!!
Anyway hahahaha....my had a little story with my little index finger. There was a in growth nail with a horrible infection so it swelled up to the size of a sausage with yucky yellow puss in the internals. I was supposed to go for a operation to take it out but apparently the antibiotics I'm taking now is clearing it...so I'm on another dose on antibiotics...YUCKS! but at least no painful operation of nail pulling hahahaha.
I was in the university choir and my times has been taken up with it all...so so so sad. I even had to go late to classes cause of it for 2 weeks. I'm glad it is all over now....anyway, it was nice to be on stage all the so-called "attention".
Oh and I spent one whole week bringing my bro around on his holiday. Sadly, it was so hazy so we din have as much fun as ever cause of the dehydration.
I'm so happy today. A friend just came up to me to told me that my previous semester's assignment was used as an example for the new students and she COMPLIMENTED me on my work and how funny it was. Wow! I am so shocked.
I just sent my scholarship applications form today so wish me luck! I have my fingers crossed....
6 people looking exactly alike?
I read an article once about how there are 6 people that are identical to you in the whole world. Want me to tell you a big secret...I found a guy that looks exactly like a friend of mine. This guy is a KL-ian and my friend is a full fledge Sabahan. At first I thought it was only me...that I was so whacked girl who couldnt get the image of her good friend of her mind...so I got that guy's face distorted. A few weeks later my housemate who met my good friend(I stress ONLY ONCE) ran up to me excitedly, "U know what...I saw a guy that looks exactly like _ _ _ _ " and it was then I knew I was not mad or crazy. A few months later another friend of mine also told me the same thing. How weird can it get? Wonder one day how would it be like to exit the washroom only to face a woman/man that looks exactly like u? I am not talking about resemblance in most areas...we are talking here about a SORT-OF clone..a exact replica...besides personality I hope...cuz my good friend....let's just say many not so pleasant words come to mind! So people keep your eyes open for your twin
GPA score that is so so sweet!
The management in my uni is horrible. I cannot stand it at all. I waited for 1 whole month for my results. I am back in uni and I still have not received it despite all the sad story of how it was sent to my house a week ago. Yesterday was my first day of uni, and I wouldnt have gotten to register as they refused to release my results yet this sweet ex-lecturer of mine helped me out by vouching for me...so nice! Anyway, despite the horrible waiting and sweating and boilling in the bursary I finally got to pay my fees...damn expensive fees but its still has to be paid *sigh* and then off I went to go grobble the registry people for my results.
The big problem was that the line was so so so long and there were only 2 people working at hand in the whole registry area. I waited for another 30 minutes and I really had to go as I had a class but suddenly the guy took my application for the transcript release therefore I was happy to be able to FINALLY see my results. But then him printing it took a lot longer so I decided to occupy myself with getting my cheque of payment from working in the coffee house. When I came back, my results were ready but I did not have the luxury to give myself a glimpse as I was 20 minutes late for class. I entered and was relieved that he has just begun. Going to that class was the worst mistake I made that day...waiting in line and going late to class was the best thing I ever did. My results weren't that excellent but I was glad of the improvement....I got 2 A- and a B and a B- which got me a 3.63 GPA. Silly old me was so sad as I accidentally saw the CGPA as 3.32 and thought that it was the GPA so I was on the phone with my mom telling her my results on the verge of tearing. As I looked again at the report I was so so glad to know that ....hey ...I didn't do that badly so I smsed my mom the good news. Everyone was glad!!!
Now the next challenge I face is....
1. Getting a scholarship
2. Getting better grades so that I can increase my CGPA
First day of uni was busy with lots of things to settle....today is the 2nd day and I am already bogged with assignments. What a slave driver! Anyway, I am now part of the choir for the uni which will be singing for our PM on the 11th of August...not bad eh? And I will be reading the pledge for the offical opening of JALUR GEMILANG....akakakka....can't wait....1000 people from different universities...Gosh I am going to freak! So many things.......
I can't wait for my bro to come to visit me next week...I think I'm going to skip classes...I know its bad but you know what...this friend of mine who copied all my work and never goes to class got a A for PR while I only got a B- ...Life is never fair so for now...my brother comes first akkakaka!!
People...pray hard I get the scholarship k....and that my mom is well....!!!
