KL Sightings

Yao Ming

Who would have thought
that his back profile would look like this...?

movie's okay but it's TV audience's lame

If I hadn't seen the Millenium Stadium at the beginning I would've continue flipping through the TV channels...predictable plot, stunts seemed suspiciously perfect, alex is too surreal (makes me jealous)...nevertheless - no obvious gruesome, inhumane killing scenes (which would make me feel bummed for a week...) - the fight between Jack Starbright & Missi Pyle? ROFL~! really stupid laR hahaa...

the thing is - nobody's home except me tonight = control panel's in my hands bwahahaa~

(really can slap myself)

ARRRRRGH T.T

the last time i snapped was in the end of my sister's birthday party - when a toddler almost got injured by a heavy stone furniture...

brought my sister to her primary school's family day event. i wasn't so up for it but didn't wanna disappoint her... Family day = cheerfulness. i try to put that on.
i tried...

noises that went way over healthy decibels (MC screaming over the microphone, trying to outbeat the Lion Dance troop and children songs played at a SCARY volume... - I AM AMAZED I AM STILL HEARING THINGS NOW!), people with their eyes on stalls instead of watching where they're walking, over-overcrowdedness...
@.@

my sister gave up her queue for a dart game, said she wanna go home, suddenly disappeared into the midst and reappeared.
I was astonished, "Where's the remaining RM 8 coupon?"
She shrugged: "I gave it to my friend."
I glared at her.
That just ticked me off.
" What - you think this is charity??"
I could have used up that RM 8 for cabbage or something for tomorrow's dinner!! Anything - RM8!!!!! I wanted to cry - she could have asked me before doing that!!! OMG - she don't understand the VALUE of RM8, she don't know...I keep telling myself that she is innocent......T.T
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Money keeps slipping off my fingers...

[Meditating hard now... *chill chill~]
It's just RM8....come on, it's just RM8....right?


[...both events are collectively a test of patience and endurance of psychological buoyance in a pandemoniac state - 'sigh'
about the near accident? thanks to the negligence of the child's caretaker (whilst the parent watching TV in another room) I mean- I don't have a dozen pairs of eyes & hands! its not like i can watch so many kids & clean up their mess simultaneously! Can they be helpful enough to at least keep an eye of their baby please!? 'haiz (breathe~~~~~!)]

13 december

one of my cousin bro. asked me over dinner just now:" Why is your msn name 'man:'?"
i just threw back my head and laughed
honestly... i don't know!
'man' came about without me even giving a second thought! i mean, who cares? i like it - for now till the next name strikes me...

was soaking in Hillsong United's album (United We Stand) shared by Hollie since last a.m.
i'm left breatheless! ThanX pal!

'Thats What YOu Get" (Riot!) is still rocking man~ Li Hui- LIFE'S ROCKING HARD!!!
(its a matter of perception. a plain blue wall can be electrifying too!!!!!)

anyway - discovered a new singles by UK band Stiff Dylans... in sync tonight's mood~yay!! swingin'36o degrees.!!

Stiff Dylans - Ultraviolet
She is a wave and she’s breaking
She’s a problem to solve
and in that circle she’s making
I will always revolve

And on her sight
These eyes depend
Invisible and Indivisible

That fire you ignited
Good, bad and undecided
Burns when I stand beside it
Your light is ultraviolet

Visions so insane
Travel unraveling through my brain
Cold when I am denied it
Your light is ultraviolet
Ultraviolet

Now is a phase and it’s changing
It’s rotating us all
thought we’re safe but we’re dangling
and it’s too far to survive the fall

And this I know
It will not bend
Invisible and indivisible

That fire you ignited
Good, Bad and undecided
Burns when I stand beside it
Your light is ultraviolet,

Visions so insane
Travel unraveling through my brain
Cold when I am denied it
Your light is ultraviolet,

That fire you ignited
Good, Bad and undecided
Burns when I stand beside it
Your light is ultraviolet

Visions so insane
Travel unraveling through my brain
Cold when I am denied it
Your light is ultraviolet,

Your light is ultraviolet

Visions so insane
Travel unraveling through my brain
Cold when I am denied it
Your light is ultraviolet
Ultraviolet

11th december's song

Music Playlist at MixPod.com

Around this time last year, I wanted an iPod nano.

I sulked :( for a few nights, unable to swallow the fact that it will be quite an investment (Quicktime downloads, accessories etc.). But I, somehow & duno-how, nullified that gadget crave, instead I focused on getting a laptop -functional and practical, at least- instead... [which was when I got myself introduced to foreign (computer) languages...heheh, okay- (admit) I was really a hopeless NOob.]

This song PARTLY (don't listen to the whole lyric) striked a chord with my lifeless state of mind these days... I WANT my holiday!! It feels so EMPTY... (it feels though it doesn't appear to be) With my parents at the US now, I had been playing substitude parent for my siblings. Really salute my mom now, you know? HOw the hell she managed all the grocery, WORK (especially), tuitions, camps, ballets, family days blablaablah? STill, I can't wait for her to come back so I can throw half of the chores back to her and go out lepak...(hands raised up)I'm still a kid!

WHY DO I FIND MYSELF IN THESE SITUATIONS, AGAIN & AGAIN!?

SESAT!!!!!!!

20th December evening= PJYSO concert AND 5S5 gathering.

I WANA GO TO BOTH!!!!!

(moping here..) Wondering how to split myself into 2...

TTTTTTTTTT-TTTTTTTTTTTTT

One blog post is too weak to express this overpowering feeling...

Architecture

is

HYPERVENTILATING

Sunway Pyramid

A pyramid is a TOMB in Egyptians' term;
The Pyramid is the "pyramid laRR!" in Klang Valley.
They replaced the no-nose Sphinx with a shiny-eyed lion;
the Egyptian figures carved on walls carry shopping bags.

pyramid pyramid pyramid~!
ARGH!
So S.Pyramid is the nearest arcade between so many colleges,
so so many people lives near S.Pyramid,
so S.Pyramid has a S.Lagoon,
so - so what!?

My brother went to S.Pyramid for class gathering yesterday
& for gang's excursion in its stupid lagoon today

and i fetch him
TO-AND-FRO;
TO-AND-FRO

tired of that stupid traffic jam
tired of that stupid highway
tired of those stupid bunch of kids who cross the roads as if cars would emergency break for them
tired of those tasteless (why did they bother spending anyway!?) x'mas deco.s at the exterior
tired of that careless, GRATUITOUS facade and column "details"
tired of the delusive floor plans or extensions (hey- customer circulation & spatial organization please?? *knock knock @^#$*)
tired of the low ceilings and that confinement (claustrophobia indirectly induced by the muddled, untidy spaces and hostile lack of directions at some points)
tired of that FAKE, defiling "representation" (ARGH!!) of the honorable monuments of the archaic refinement
tired of how roads overlap & swoop up down left right 180degrees 360degrees around that building and its tired neighbours
tired of how superficial that building is

i can't say it made Klang Valley's stressed out college-kids' and adolescent's life unimaginative
its unfair - it has an ice-skating ring in the hot, stuffy, flooding and land-sliding Malaysia, it runs an artificial surfing tide and big plastic slides and brightly-painted roller coasters, it has loads of nite-hangouts, bowling arcade, movies and popcorns, archery, ice-creams, TGI Friday......
i can't say it doesn't meet entertainment and leisure demands
i can't say S.Pyramid shouldn't exist

The contents are desserts, beers, a place for kids to yell: "EXAM'S OVER!!!"/"RECESS!!!!"
Its just the sight
that urban planning
that maintenance and "upgrading"
the frivolous act of building
the rubbish
...that makes me wana puke

I M DRY.
can only afford window shopping now...T.T
hohoho...merry x'mas~~~~ (*sob!)

this is ridiculous

wondering what this blog represents...
it seldom speaks of the realities of my days
it seldom tells you the outright meanings of the bits & chunks of nonsenses i wrote
it seldom reports
it seldom critiques
it is NEVER consistent

it wants to tell you something, but wouldn't tell you everything.
it wants to carry a theme, to be characteristic, specific...it wants to be ONE blog
...but couldn't help being a messy blog jammed with all(not) the random sesat-ness & what-nots by a dreamer & wallflower of a writer.
So..
"What does this blog wants to be?"

[my laptop broke down!!! how am I gonna function now? darn worried that my downloads and assignments and PHOTOS will be gone with it- argh! save me T.T]

What am I doing!?

" Are you scared?" I asked my brother, as we crawled across the Federal Highway towards KL Sentral. [urgh! bloody jam kay~ ARGH!! (can still feel that 2 hour frustration after 2 days!)]
" EYa..." he mumbled, then continued complaining, "HURRY UP LA jie~! Overtake la!! Faster la!!! After miss the train then how!?" [wth... as if my car can squeeze pass the lorry and bus which were already kissing ass infront of me!!!]
btw...[back to topic]
He is scared: It is the first time he goes beyond Malaysian borders (eventhough it's just Singapore) without our parents... [and maybe he don't trust me enough to feel secure =.=' ]
I am scared TOO: Not because of going, BUT of the PURPOSE we were going!

I can't believe what a FREAK I was!
WTH! I was going to run 21.1km in the friggin' Std. Chartered S'pore (*puke*!) MARATHON!!! [fainting as she speaks]
21.1km wouldn't had been a big deal IF (note: punctuation on "IF"), if I hadn't stop training since May [7 MONTHS!!!!!!]!!!!!!!!
The last time I ran a 20km was February, and was supposed to run another 20km (KL International Marathon) before my friggin' finger broke before college orientation (but didn't to prevent any friggin' infection)... and THATS ALL for the past friggin' YEAR!
I wouldn't be freaking out as much if I was SMART enough to register the 10km back on March ["WTH WAS I THINKING!!?????"]
HOw in the WORLD am I gonna hop back into a half-marathon after so many months not running at all!?

This is pure-friggin'-INSANITY!!!!!

[Just a re-cap...(Q) Why hadn't I been running these 7 months? (A) 1st: I CAN'T SEEM TO WAKE UP EARLY enough to jog in the morning (as I used to) nowadays!! 2nd: the usual excuse... LAZY & BUSY. ]

5 Dec (Friday nite):
ALL the crazy imaginations start flooding on the way down South...
[btw, the KTM to S'pore sux- fat points deducted for punctuality & hygiene & ergonomics (can I sue for backaches?), & can the civilised ppl bother closing the door after they enter or exit?? & maybe the gov. would bother making the train sound & shake proof!?]
... maybe I'd faint half-way thru'...maybe I'd end up the last or miss the qualifying time... maybe I'd get muscle cramps...maybe....maybe I couldn't make it......

Why in the world...? 21km [nothing compared to 42.2km or the ultra-marathon's 72km ('eeep!'), but still, for stupid amateurs like me...]? Had started 21km since last year... wanted to improve my race-time (my previous record of 21.1k was 02:27:04.. it was okay for a beginner- not okay for a seasoned runner), wanted to challenged my stamina.....and I ended up stressing myself out now.
What to do? I guess I am just gonna take it REALLY EASY this round (as in WALK WHEN I NEED TO).

6 Dec (Sat):
S'pore Exhibition Centre
what gave me the chills wasn't the building scale (all the double volume spaces magnified by ruggedness/emptiness of the spaces) and the aerobatic steel structures overhead - but all the runners carrying blue gym bags (not to mentioned their athletic build)! [My Burger King seemed tasteless - not because of the stupid FLU i had been having since tuesday but the PEOPLE all around the place!]

7 Dec 2008 (Sunday), 4.30am:
[hit the snooz button of my handphone alarm for the gazillionth time, woke finally no thanks to the morning call]
I resigned: FINE!! I am gonna go!

6.15am:
It was dizzying~ 50,000 participants!!! imagine seeing waves of energetic-looking people in vest & shorts converging towards the Esplanade under the dim street lights and underpasses. For the half-marathon category itself, the queue stretched at least 1000 x 10metres from the Starting Point...
[btw(again)...the Singapore Flyer looks dazzling at this hour- violet lights against golden blue sky!! I wish I brought my camera... >.< ]
the rest is history [lazy to bore you with details of my LOUSY run..or rather, walk]. Ending point: the Padang (muddy, very! tempted but can't sit on the grass), sludged all the way to the Japanese War Memorial to collect my bag, refill on 100+ ...blablah.
I didn't feel the endophins! (okay~ I wasn't running, so what to expect?)

Well, at least I finished 21.1 km- no matter how I did it XP

...urm, so I came home this morning? er...no idea how to end this gradually boring post.

I still can't believe what a FREAK I was!!

3.27 a.m. Friday
this is crazy
to be awake when I have the allowance to be pigging off right now
yet it seems so perfectly natural

and the bonus is... I don't have to count down to __:__a.m. (assignment or whatever datelines) by minutes XD

Girls-Territory

"They managed the make trees the next most romantic spot!", Michelle exclaimed in her blog ('Twilight', Nov 28).

Well, i never heard of that book and didn't know what the whole flutter and giggly hype was about... till too many girlfriends mentioned it and Hollie ask me out to catch it, and I WATCHED IT... I M IN!! Eventhough his initial glares and chalky face give me the chills..nevermind his looks kay~ I just love the part where he saved her from the car accident and yea... the tree sonata. XD
OMg! Can romance be any more heartthrobbing? (in reality - no, sadly...according to experienced sources, at least)
Then a guyfriend asked me over the net:" What's about Edward Cullen?"
"A dreamy vampire from Twilight......XDXD "
"...Thats it!?"
" You guys will never geddit!"
"I thought he got in an accident n pass away sth like dat.."
-.-
??
" XD So many ppl putting Edward Cullen so I wondered la."

Keep wondering, guys. With the fictions setting standards, and u see, all the response these charming dudes get (hey, dismiss it as fantasy at your risk hahaa)- u've gona hv a tough job pleasing girls...hahaa, KEEP IT UP GUYS!
All girls want him.
Hollie:" If Edward Cullen is my boyfriend, I don't mind being a vampire.... Come suck my blood!!"

Woot!
Even a hard fella like me melted...
(this is serious)

(chomping down Lok Loks before showtime)
(Yoghurberry after the *swell** show..)

(Pat, Hol & I...

can't get over the whole thing )

hahaa~
