Despite the chaotic scholarship and college applications I’ve been drowning myself into, everything is great.
Dad’s getting me the iPod. And Mum’s having her fair share in this thing too since I’ve decided to get myself a phone which isn’t as lower priced as planned before, but instead get the Supernova 7610.

And I still get to keep more than half of my pay-cheque too!

I’m really overwhelmed since I’ve been having my eye on this since so long ago, well since I fell for the marketing strategies they had themselves in for this model.


And an iPod Touch has also been on my must-have gadget list. Well, must-have but will never-have list, actually. But scratch never, I’m getting it! (: And with 16gb memory too :’)

Having driving class tomorrow. Not looking forward.

Ciao loves, take care.


Thanks to Viv, I’m hooked on this! -_-”

Yesterday my baby’s debut solo single was released! :)

Okaayyyeeyuck, ‘baby’ just doesn’t fit well into my vocab usage list.

Pete Doherty released his first solo EP and I can only get it once my paycheque rolls in.

Catching a nap now and waking up to more Photoshop designing for Najwa’s college event. To be honest, I’m not that much satisfied with the design but that’s pretty normal until the very last touch-up when the mojo comes to work wonders.

I’m actually quite tired. I need sleep.

Ta loves.

I admit that I’m not in the group of very few people who would put a-not-so-decent photo of myself online.

I am not at all vain, I can’t take photos of myself on my own without blushing myself in ridicule upon reviewing them. But I do put on make up and that would include concealers, blushers, eyeliners and loose powder to top it off. I somehow think it’s an essential since I’m a girl. That does not at all mean that I’m trying to please physically.

I don’t know what’s my point.

Jason Mraz on the 4th was okay. I don’t worship Mraz as much as John Mayer or Pete Doherty and a bunch of other bands. I don’t really consider myself as a real fan of his, just of a few of his songs. I had a fever that night so the photos took ended up me looking like I had cried my eye out. Well, I was but only because my eyes were stinging so badly and my insides felt as if they were boiling.
Example:

I look as if I had just cried my life out. I looked red, wasn’t well at all that night seriously. The concert was alright, to be honest, I spent most time oogling on Jason Mraz and his sexy moves, he no doubt is a good performer. Since I’m not a major fan of his, I only knew a few of the songs. So the rest of the time was spent with Najwa & I camwhoring (I can’t beleive I’m saying this), getting myself irritated by the dude who claps out of tempo behind me and just more eye candy on Mr Mraz. It was a good 90 minutes worth of a concert. The weather was, as usual nowadays, horrible. Many many hot dudes present at the show, and as I joked of being close yet far to one, I hit my leg on the stone planted on the ground, you know, that territory marker, batu sempadan as it is in Malay. And I’m pretty sure I was in his hot territory. Ouch.

Had dinner with Amni, Ira and Dad. Sent Amni back, Ira came home with me. She went online and I headed for bed.

End.

Because I really need a my normal music doses, this here is a post I would dedicate to it.

I admit to be listening to Taylor Swift and Jason Mraz for just far too much these days. I’ve officially overdosed on Taylor Swift. Please don’t stop reading here, hahaha!  I’m probably the last person I know to be listening to Taylor Swift (besides my buds who are in love with Joe Jonas (his name is just so lame, :P ) and thus hates Taylor Swift, WITHout an apparent reason, lol), well somehow, the catchy tune and 12 year old lyrics managed to somehow get me hooked. So yes, that’s a confession right there.

Moving on to what I’m always getting myself into:-

I’ve yet to post my New Year’s resolution and it has been a month!

Here goes:-

No.1 priority: Education.

Make sure my brother gets good results for his PMR.

Not waste one whole year on a person, 2009 is the year of productiveness, education here I come! :D

Leave 2008 behind. But patch certain things up when opportunity comes.

Appreciate the people I have and love them the way they are.

Get close to God.

Love myself for being placed in this very skin. Do what I love, and not take in account of perceptions from shallow people.

Ma’s agreed to getting me the Macbeth shoes and I don’t hope to be let down. So yay!

Will be doing the Loh Sang tomorrow at Ra’s with Vivien, Najwa and Faiqa. Probably Fifi too. Prosperity, babyyy!

Movie marathon tomorrow! I like stay-ins with my girlfriends :)

Visit to SriAman tomorrow, to deal with matters concerning education.

I’m addicted to Taylor Swift’s songs. Stay Beautiful is a favourite. But I’m still not sidetracked from my usual Babyshambles, John Mayer, The Cribs, Arcade Fire, okay? :D

I can’t wait till March. Jason Mraz is still probable, Sunburst too, my SPM results are a definite yes and as scared as I am, I can’t wait for a fresh new start! Other than that, Pete’s out with a new album by then! I love Pete!

Tok Cik called a few nights back and he’s okay with me doing Econs. Hopes for me to be able to fly to LSE but it really depends on my SPM results. I extremely do not want to let my parents, grandparents and Tok Cik down.

The weather these days is just too chilly. It’s chilling up my spines. And I really don’t like it, brrr.

I seem to be really happy these days because I’m really putting the past at the back of my mind. I haven’t gotten rid of them. Yet.

I miss being important! Debates in school tournaments, andd okay that’s probably the only important I was.  lol. Heyy, I was an ‘important’ friend too k? :D

Why does Princess Diana play a vital role as an image we look up to? I’m helping out a friend for a thesis.

I don’t like milk and I don’t drink it at all! But I love soy and yogurt! And that’s a random fact for you!

I had 3 exclamation marks in the previous sentence. Exageratted much.

I think the reason why I’m really happy right now is because I’ve updated my iTunes playlist and I’ve got tonnes of Babyshambles now and Taylor Swift is something new too. Bloc Party, Interpol, Arcade Fire, Wombats, Cribs, here I comeee!~

Peter Doherty’s songs are keeping me happy.

I can’t wait for the next minutes of my life, but it’s not exactly an adventure right now you see. I just am exciiiteeedd.

HAHAH Thank you Ribena, you do me wonders.

Okay, now here’s a song for you to take a lesson from!

I honestly do not want to stop letting out.

Later, loves!

I miss a bunch of jerks right now and it’s not making me feel good :(

Hahaha, ask Ira, ask Najwa. You’d get the answer to this post.

I managed to strike out sushi from my ‘What I Want’ list since we had Japanese for dinner :D I guess tonight was one of those nights that you somehow end up talking to every random stranger around, and by that for me, it also includes a pretty-good looking chinese with reggae hair. But horrible teeth (I just had to add that, lol). Well yet again, my used to be thing of having conversations with 20 year olds have developed to random ones with people reaching their 30s. Whtf man? I really need to learn to shut up and not talk randomly. Dinner was alright and the loo was cool. The walls were mirrors so I could do my hair while, .. yeah! HAHAH Okay, I’m not really in a good mood now, I’m just really typing emotionlessly . . -_-


That’s John the frog, and me!

“Naj, don’t ask why he’s the frog and not me! -_-”

Hahaha! Accidental bitch shot -_-”

Dan’s band The Inggits performed really well (and I don’t compliment him much), the band was great. And Dan didn’t really ruin Coldplay’s Yellow. I mean if they were bad I’d probably curse my life out (Najwa ;) ) at the fact that I had to endure a band which had repeated riffs and well, the whole bloody song was repeated. And a guy who beatboxed for 5 bleeding songs. I don’t even think that’s possibly acceptable. The next band, no comment. I had actually rejected that very band during our BOTB auditions and the whole family supporting them back then were they too.

Dan looks like he’s eating the mic off here HAHA

But,

I got the hottest guy on Earth (well, to me :D ), sitting beside me.

But yeah, that didn’t quite make things right.

And I have a photo of the old lady (definition of old would be 30. Yes my dear friends, my standards have changed so you guys can stop going around telling people I’d date people who’re 28 -_-”), who hated us just too much during the driving undang-undang course.

I miss so many things right now :S

Bali in 6 days isn’t really a good idea. I’d probably hang by the beach and skip shopping and that would mean my mind would be roaming around someplace else. If it’s somewhere in LA for John Mayer, I wouldn’t mind, hahaha. But back in Malaysia is just UHH. Plus although we’ve got Wifi at the lobby, we’re staying over at Hard Rock’s because I was dumb to pick there instead of someplace else. Now I don’t get to the lobby looking like a slob because it’d be so packed at night with people crowding the bar and stage. Or maybe I could skip my emo crap and spend good quality time with my beloved family. Or pick up a surfer dude. Okay I don’t need that, hahaha!

Just what I need .

In 2008, I’ve just realised how much changes I had myself in for, too many for me to list honestly, but I’ll be giving this a try. Jeez, this is so not good for me, going to the past and reminiscing it and stuff, it’s not gonna make me any happier, or maybe it could :)

So yes,

In 2008 :-

1. I  fell out of the whole J-Pop frenzy scene and gave away/stashed at a corner the Japanese magazines and boy-group souvenirs I owned which cost me more than a thousand ringgit. I swore myself not ever to be a fan-girl again. I am over that stage of life!

2. I got myself into the whole British music scene AGAIN after giving up trying to like Jpop, and was mad over Pete Doherty, I actually wrote him a fan-mail. (HAHAAA, this is an ultimate confession). I made up my mind that music does not equal to good looking musicians. Good looks don’t usually make good music, (but some men are just perfect ;) )

3. I fell for John Mayer as soon as I saw Say on tv. It made me cry -_-

4. 2008 was no doubt the year of coincidences, and probably miracles for myself too. Makes it different than previous years.

5.  I enrolled myself into a tuition centre with 40 other teenagers studying at the same time with me, and decided I liked it better than previous private classes I had myself in for.

6. I got myself stress attacks the night before each trials exam paper and spent 10 minutes plus crying and trying to calm myself down.

7. I realised I could be broken apart so easily, and I’m not very much stress-proof.

8. I quit debating after a year of doing it non-stop.

9. I slept in class for the first time (hey, I’m a goodie okay! :) )

10. I had a chat with the Principal who wanted to convince us to continue debates! And I have no idea, why this is here but hey, during primary I had a chat with the Principal and nearly got my name blacklisted in the discipline book, so I’ve changed :)

11.  I’ve learned the people I could really rely on, and that I owe my life to.

12. I liked a guy (no dumbo, this is not the first), but couldn’t figure out the reason why at all (this is a first).

13. I gave up convincing people that I do not have bad taste in men and the way the look. I guess I like ugly men, hahahah! That doesn’t sound so right.

14. I met up and hung out with my 5-years Msn bestbud and my bestfriend thinks so fondly of him, HAHA.

15. I got myself hooked on Youtube (definitely a first).

16. I spent my birthday at a place I wasn’t familiar of, doing random things with close friends that I don’t expect (except Najwa), and new friends I’m not close to at all.

17. I got myself confused and made others confused as well.

18. I did many things I would never do.

19. I managed to get everything I wanted and luck was on my side at this period of time.

20. I lost a lot of things.

21. I had contact lenses then decided they’re too much hassle to be worn.

22. I got myself a planner which I update regularly.

23. I sat for SPM.

24. I spent 20ringgit on phonecalls everyday for nearly 2 weeks.

25. I used a lot of people and karma is hitting on me still.

26. I messed around with faith.

27. I got way more independant.

28. I don’t make plans and do things randomly instead.

29. I studied hard at certain periods.

30. I got myself conviced but I was also wrong.

31. For the first, I realised I do not have the answer to all of life’s problems.

32. I got rid of half my ego. Okay, maybe just a quarter.

33. I organised a couple of events and realised that I could after all organise things. Just not myself.

34. I failed a subject in school for the first and cried to it so much.

35. I cursed so much at one point when I was pissed at how things were.

36. I decided to not care so much of what others say.

37. I sprained my leg for the first time, twice!

38. I developed peptic ulcer and chronic gastric illness.

39. I made up random coversation with people.

40. I got more bimbotic, is that even a word?

41. I made a fool of myself too often but decided that I have many other things to worry about.

42. I learned that people should learn to accept others and themselves just the way things are.

43. I realised how much I really care about my siblings.

44. I realised how vulnerable I am.

45. I got to know that people can turn out to be exactly what you think they never would be.

46. I trusted people less, and this is good because I put too much trust on people and too easily.

47. I realised that I have dreams too big and they require risks but still have yet to figure out if risking is a good thing.

48. I headed to Klcc for 3 days in a row and got Klcc labeled as home for me by my friends.

49. I realised how things could go away in just a blink of an eye.

50. I got to learn the hard way that you don’t know what you have until you actually lose them.

It’s amazing how some people are so full of themselves. No, I don’t need tips on your capability. Out busking tomorrow. Wish us luck, drop by if you could, we should be around Pavillion evs.

I’ll blog on this, I owe the people who’s helping out big time. Photos to come, shout outs to come and song list will be posted only after.

I’m starting to realise, those you have with you, they might stay for as long as you could notice, but doesn’t necessarily mean they’d have your back. The worse part is when you realise how you’ve been taken granted of by others. Well, this ought make me a better person. Oh and this doesn’t relate at all to busking :)

Click, this is a pretty nice cover of it.

On today, was supposed to head for brunch at mamak with Kira, Laila and Abe. But Kira finished her driving class late and I was having a nap then. But she rang me in the evening while I was watching a jazz performance collection on BluRay. Hahahah told her what I was doing and got a ‘gila takde life weh HAHAH’ from her, tengg. I don’t wanna imagine what Ira, Najwa or Tiya would respond to me watching old dudes playing jazz though. But hey, they’re effin good okay? Like real good. And I was meant to be watching it with my Dad but I was having a nap and woke up when it has ended so had to watch it alone.

Well anyways, had Subway and have yet to watch the dvd till the end. What a bummer, I mean it is a little loser-fied to be watching a whole jazz show on tv alone but my girlfriends don’t do jazz and I’d get teased about for watching ugly old men on tv.

Maybe I should spread the love, heheeh. Najwa seems prone to being influenced to listen to jazz. Oh, and Dad’s music mastah friend told me to get a hear of real good Flamenco music and I’d probably fall in love with it.

Ok ciao.

So, as I was browsing on Washburn guitars through Ebay, guess what I came across?

Click

HAHAHAHA, you have to be kidding me. I mean a Hello Kitty Strat’s still acceptable if you ask me because it is cute in a way but a mini Washburn acoustic of Hannah Montana? Erk.

And contrary to that though, I do actually watch Hannah Montana pretty regularly but I don’t consider her as a singer, she’s a bleeding actress. Funny shit.

WHTF@W*#)@, just as I was about to go emo, I came across this weird thing..

Jonas Brothers covering John Mayer?

Disney Poop-Crap covering John? THF?
What what what what what? I look like this now –> O.O

I just had lunch and am about to puke it all out. I mean, I’m not anti-Jonas because lovebug was pretty cute and sweet. But honestly,

That is just the worst. Never in my life have I heard such a cover.

I am honestly about to cry because that song was just ruined entirely by that Nick dude.

Uhhh, ):
I’m sorry but fuck those bitches supporting lah. Hello? It stinks sooo obviously so stop going woohhwoohh~ and making him go on!

Okay, I sound a little overboard here but hello? Have you heard that cover? I swear my dad sings better and more decently!

To hate the Jonas Brothers more,

Yes, they ruined Coldplay’s Fix You too.


And, yes, Switchfoot too! Whtfk man? Bloody amateurs.

Okay, I’m scaring myself now but I feel like crying now. Dumb asses. They’re just the same as Akon and that dumb Sean Kingston dude. These people don’t deserve the fans man. Models look better okay? Eww jhadnhjasbdhj
