Scariest Day

Yesterday I was lazing in front of the TV comfyly, looking at the clock, realized it was already 6pm, inside of me start to wonder where is my mom, thought she must be working overtime again, thinking later when she comes back, surely lament about the overload of cases she was having everyday.

Then the phone rang, I was even lazy to get it. However, still get my butt off, drag myself to the cordless, and bring it with me to the living room, so that the next phone call, i no need to get up. My lazy-bones.

It was my granny,

Granny: Where is your mummy?
Me: Not sure really, guess must be working late in the casualty. (It's the emergency room where my mom has to do portable X-Rays.)
Granny: Oh, she didn’t call back?
Me: No wo.
Granny: Now listen to me, you be calm all right?
Me: Oh, sure.
Granny: Your mom is in the casualty, but she is admitted.
Me: .......


Suddenly, I went speechless, I went blank, I felt like totally bonkers, even before hearing what was the matter with her.

Granny: Go see your mom now.

We hanged up; I called up my younger sister and told her about it. I could hear her voice panicked in the phone too. Then immediate, I ran to the hospital. I actually had forgotten that I should drive there.

Once I reached there, saw her talking to the doctor, and she saw me coming, smiled. She was okay; I was suddenly flooded with relief. I can’t put in words to describe me myself in that moment I saw her, but that easing feeling makes me drowned into tears. It turns out that her blood pressure was too high, and the doctor afraid that she was too nervous about it and further worsen her condition, so the doctor anesthetize her to sleep for two hours.

Luckily, it was nothing serious. Off course, later that night, that incident became the joke of the house, she called my granny and told her that I cried, and she laughed about it in front of my other sisters. Well, what to say, I am simply glad that this whole scary incident was later developed into merely a delighting dinner story to tell.

Narnia the so-called Magical World.


Do you ever feel like walking out the cinema half way the show is showing? For me, except for Polar Express, (but because it was a new experience for me, first time watching 3D in IMAX, so can omit that), Narnia would be the first one ever of all my movie-watching experiences.

Looking at the poster itself, it didn’t urge me enough to walk into the theater, and I couldn’t expect much from the film production company that produces Around the World in 80 Days either, but because the frequent trailer on TV and mainly because I couldn’t get the ticket to watch King Kong, so I still gave it a shot.

At first, I thought I was in the wrong cinema, the screen was showing a war scene for about ten minutes, and another mother-sending-children-off scene in the terminal for another 5 minutes, merely this 15 minutes enough to kill me to boredom. Need not to mention the part how they discover the wardrobe and the Narnia world behind it. "Hay, look! It’s snowing inside the wardrobe! Oo, it's freezing cold! Jingle bells, jingle bells! Oh I know, let's play hide-and-seek so that I could bluff all of you into the wardrobe! Nyek Nyek!”......... While watching till this part, I was constantly switching my sitting position due to my aching back.

The title itself, “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe", it is understood that Narnia is hiding inside the Wardrobe. While the Witch is evil, domination of the Narnia world by casting an icy spell, “always winter and never Christmas!” So how about the Lion? Well, The Lion here is as tame as any herbivore could be. Its main tasks is to bluff the witch into believing his death (by having a dreadfully long meeting in the tent, walking up the stairs in slow-mo, and not forgetting to let the devils shave him before death) and to sigh the creatures that the witch frozen back to life again, ONE BY ONE. I assume that only the lion has the ability to "sigh" them to life, I must admit that this lion is truly long-winded! Bravo!

As for the Son-of-Adam, and Daughter-of-Eve, they just don't look heroic enough. When one of the Daughter-of-Eve first entered Narnia, she was amazed, "Impossible!", and second time is when... (Hmmph, can’t remember, when she saw the lion?) Anyway, "Impossible!" Is it that pathetic that there's no more English word to express surprise? They could simply use "Holy shit!", "What the Hell?", "F*ck!” to replace the vocab. Sorry for being rude.

Well, I guess I should say that this "always winter and never Christmas" is just not my cup of tea, or even my cup of coffee, juice, water, and what-so-ever.

Almost forget..

Happy Birthday to Huey Kein! finally 21st today, and belated wishes to Kim Ean, 11.11! how could i forget? Mucckss!

Surprise!

It was kind of unusual way of getting up from my sleep this morning. I got someone knocking at my room door, and vaguely i saw pinkish!! Big head had finally return from the vacation in his house, i grab big head from his hand, and straight away cuddle him to my sleep again. ( We decided that big head is a he). But what i didnt notice was the big Esprit plastic bag that he was holding, to my surprise, he bought me a shirt and a bag! I guess he must had enough of me complaining to have nothing proper to wear. hihii! Thank you dar, so sweet of you to have thought of me and to buy me something, and i love the shirt, the material is awesome~! Silk, cooling! Hmmph, or was it something else when i tried it on? Both the shirt and the bag are embedded with the icy bling-bling, yummy baby! Beware people, gonna shine my way through!

Always the best!

I went yam cha with Allan and Jun last nite, at first it was a plain old-time-catching up session, jst a cup of teh tarik and sat there from 930pm till midnight, non-stop of babbling , we shift from the mamak to Jun's house till 330am, still babbling but this time half-conscious, three of us lying on three seperate couch, still talking! In the mean time, we were planning to ask everyone else of the G8 to come online and have a lil' "world-wide gathering", too bad it's just too tough to get our butt out of the comfy couch. Finally, Allan gave up, stood up and gestured me to the door. Then, a sound came out, "Bak kut teh?" Nobody seems to have say No to the all time fav, so all the way till 530am, reached home, shower. Half dead!!

However, it's always one of the best spending time with you beautiful people, it reminds us that the "adventures" we've been through, and it's always pleasurable to talk about it over and over again. Just like what Re always says, Stay Gorgeous! *wink*

Spaghetti Night

Me and my younger sis were both home alone tonite, so we decided to cook spaghetti for dinner. We went Tesco for a simple ingredient hunting session, well, off course the main objective achieved, but we ended up with the dessert for supper, tomorrow's breakfast, lunch, and dinner too. We tried to stop, but simply cant resists, it's all food, the temptation is too much.

Anyway, we continued our plan for spaghetti despite the little delay, and here are the recipes:

You will need:
  1. 500g San Remo Thick Spaghetti
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 2 teaspoons rosemary sprigs
  4. 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  5. 1 medium onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
  6. 400g beef mince
  7. 100g sliced salami, cut into strips
  8. 1 medium red capsicum (seeds removed), diced
  9. 400g can whole peeled tomatoes, with juice
  10. 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  11. ½ cup water
  12. salt and ground pepper, to taste
  13. 1 cup chopped parsley

Cook: San Remo Thick Spaghetti according to packet directions until 'al dente'. Drain and return to pan and set aside.Heat oil in a large saucepan and stir fry the rosemary, garlic, onion, beef, salami and capsicum over high heat for 5 minutes. Cook until the onions are soft and the beef starts to brown. Puree or crush the tomatoes then stir into the beef mixture, along with the tomato paste and the water. Mix well and cook until the sauce is boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until the beef is cooked and the capsicum tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir through the chopped parsley. Toss half the sauce through the pasta coating it well. Divide the pasta between bowls and top with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

Looks complicated isnt it? Fortunate enough we saw there were fresh capsicum selling. The colours of the capsicum are interesting enough, green, red and yellow, luring us to eat them there and then! Though, we didnt buy it. Because we followed the second method, which is...

Ingredient:

  1. Prego instant pasta source
  2. Spaghetti

Cook: Heat everything up, within 15 mins, spaghetti was eaten, and digested.

The night doesnt just end with me and my sister messing up the kitchen, I sat in front of the TV for almost 3 hours continuously for 2 movies in HBO and StarMovies, Catwomen, and Day After tomorrow! Typical holidays.... 3 hours because it was coincidients that i found these shows are showing, therefore missed the beginning. Getting sleepy now, time to sleep!

45 Things to do before 45

I was reading the Her World mag and found this article interesting. "45 things to do before your're 45". So i made some sorting, and this is what i have done and have yet to be done.

Done!

  • Fall in love. ( duh...~!)
  • Have a mind-blowing fling with someone you've always fancied.( Well, it's always a fling before any serious relationship isnt it?)
  • Learn a new language. ( my language class in 2nd sem , coming soon!)
  • Forgive someone who's hurt you badly. (Sis, i forgive you all for stealing my clothes, my shoes.. becoz i stole yours too!)
  • Have an entire mother-daughter day. (This is easy!)
  • Make a conscious effort to spend more time with your loved ones. (My granny!!!)
  • Arrange all your photographs in albums - chronologically. (Not anymore now, it's all in folders after folders after folders....)
  • Go on a shopping spree and change entire wardrobe. (hmmph, not totally whole wardrobe! but still count,bluek!)
  • Get a new hairstyle. ( Well, i dyed, and from short --> long, so it counts!)
  • Lose five kilos. ( Yeap! Still heavy now, but heavier last time!)
  • Go online and make new friend.... (C'mon!)
  • Call an old friend you haven't spoken to in ages and catch-up. ( During birthdays, i guess that consider!)
  • Start a blog. (*wink*)
  • Throw a party with your closest friends and have them all spend the night.( This is often during secondary!)
  • Start helping out at community centre. ( Last time during Leo club...)

Yet to be done!!!

  • Sign up for wine appreaciation classes. You'll finally be able to tell the difference between the pinot and the merlot. (.......speechless...........)
  • Begin your search for spiritual and emotional fulfillment.
  • Have sex somewhere other than bedroom. Or better still, have Tantric sex. ( Huh? What's that? Kamasutra?)
  • Make a family tree and trace your ancestors.
  • Walk into a beauty bar and get yourself a Gothic makeover, jst for the heck of it. ( Gypsy makeover counts? Jst some blanket over and a jst-wake-up hairstyle will do rite? That's me every morning.)
  • Try and get back into your Levi's 501 from the last decade. (Last decade i was 11.)
  • Try on a pair of coloured contact lenses. (K! gonna get it tomorrow! Yellow?)
  • Indulge in a sexy pair of thongs.
  • Start a business you've always dreamed of.
  • Walk into your boss's room and demand that long-overdue promotion.
  • Get the Master degree you've been putting on hold. (+_+")
  • Redecorate your workstation following feng shui tips and see if it makes a difference.
  • Take a course on running your own business. (hmmph...)
  • Call up an ex-boyfriend and meet up for coffee. Hopefully he'll be fat and bald, and you'll still look like a million bucks. ( This is way evil! Yummy!)
  • Sign up for salsa lessons. What better way to get know people whilst moving your groove thing? ( Wooo... dirty dancing!)
  • Make plans to visit your dream destination. If there's one place in the world you've been dying to go, this is the right time. Better still, choose one where you can practice your newly-acquired language. ( So here i come, Italian and Sicily baby!)
  • You got your driving licence at 20 - now get your diving licence!
  • Go on an African safari. ( S'pore's night safari counts? or Melaka's animal safari?)
  • Pick up a musical instrument. ( Well, tried piano, too bad!)
  • Go skydiving. Heck, while you're at it, you might as well bungee jump and parasail as well. ( Yeah!)
  • Sign up for Pilates classes.
  • Start having healthy breakfast of cereal, fruit and yoghurt every morning.
  • Check into a health spa and indulge.

So here it is, there's much to be added into my to-do-list. Wait, where's my to-do-list? Oh! I guess i don't have one. Well, just too bad then.

Steve McCurry Slide Show

Some of my favourites

Steve McCurry

Saw his name some time ago in the newspaper. Recognize him by his famous picture featuring a 12 year-old refugee on the Afganistan-Pakistan border. That picture is National Geogrphic 100 Best pictures. It seem that he immotarlized the haunted eyes of that girl. After two decades, he was able to locate that girl again and that was the only two pictures that the girl had ever taken. Here are some of his marvelous work.


haunted!


Hush lil' boy, do not play with gun!


What can you do with a dog and a gun?


Picture with revolution influence but less diabolism.

You can visit his work here, but then, a friendly advice is that you do no visit it during your depressed moment, seeing all his pictures that potray the ppl around the world who are suffering from war or other catastrophe makes you feel even more vulnerable. Anyway, I wonder had I breach the copyright act by posting up his photograph here? =_="

Man Chauvinist Pig

I usually avoid some kind of ppl, becoz mixing them make me goes mad. Some saying, "If you cant beat them, join them.", in this case, this is not relevent. Seeing those man chauvinist pig (MCPs), the male species who is excessively proud of his masculinity, and express this pride to the detriment of the female species makes me puke. Loose my appetite. However, wanna make the defination of MCPs clear, that he may feel no ill will towards women, he may merely thoughtlessly ignore the needs or interest of women while pursuing his esteemed. From outsiders' view, these MCPs infact need thier women (if there's still any modern women willing to be obedient of such disasterous behaviour these days!) of thier life to continue for survival.

Second , is self-centered, the Mr. Know-It-All.... (well, since i am talking the XY homosapien, no doubt for the title Mr.) They indulgently believing that the superiority in them and hence, excessively self-absorbed, and self-involved. Thinking that everyone around him will agree to his moron opinions. As i mention moron, it means that those opinions that makes no sense. It is equivalent to a statement made by 4 year-old, "Ice-Cream is yummy!" How adorable! On the other hand, made by Mr.Know-It-All, "Ice-cream is tasty to eat, it contains fats, carbohydrate, balance vitamins, however, too much of ice-cream makes your teeth yellow, like drinking coffee, therefore you need to brush your teeth very often, do exercise........." Sound moronic informative isnt it? *wink*

Ya' know, how unfortunate, a series of my unfortunate event.

Bike Race

The hectic lifestyle that i am having now during my uni life is totally no fun at all. Stress could jst come up to you and keep on haunting you down till you cant catch your breath, suffocate! I locked myself up in the town for long enough, all the driving, carpark searching, traffics, honking(i dun used to do this, till i came up town,honking is essential!).Not to say i dun enjoy these lifestyle, but too much is always bad for health. Therefore, as a getaway, i turn my vehichel into a bike. Racing with my sister in the aunty bike, and the tyre was almost flat, was actually fun! Thou a bit of almost falling down there because too long nv been on a bike. Now, let the pictures do the talking!

Later that night,

somebody thinks that i stink alot! True enough, havoc comes late that nite where i had skin allergy, might be due to the medicine that my family that been inputting to me too much. Suffer an injection the nxt morning, *pain* will tell more in my next post!

Busy! busy!

I had been really busy since the midterm break. Nv had one day of relaxation before. Even during some of the outings, my mind couldnt be in peace to have a great day out. Now i understand that growing up isnt fun at all. Worst scenario didnt end of jst simply being busy. I was caught up with fever and sick for almost two weeks now after i had one of my dinner in Dengkil. ( yea! the food there is poisonous!) Or was it just me being unlucky that had me diarrhea and lost my appetite for two whole weeks. Imagine this, i cant even finish my McD ice cream, feel like chucking it away jst after first two bites, how pathetic!

Anyway, everyone else is having stress like me. When i try to think of it, i am somehow very lucky because during my "sick", i somehow managed to get myself pampered from my sister and my dar dar. My dinner and medication was all well taken care of by them. After all, both of them are busy with thier own coming FYP presentation. Anyway, i am going back hometown tml, miss my mum already. Wanna drink her chicken soup so much. After two weeks only i told her that i am sick, made her worry like hell, kept calling for the past hours, making sure that i would be home tml.

It's end of the sem and its totally no fun time! I want holidays!!!!

Love is only a feeling?

My winamp was shuffling among tons of songs, suddenly this song by The Darkness filled up the air, reminded myself how i used to blast this song over and over again last time.

"That the light of my life.
Would tear a hole right through each cloud that scudded by
Just to beam on you and I"

Especially like this part of the lyrics. And finally tasted how it is like to feel a light shinning on jst the two of us, totally a world of our own, when i was visually stunned by the complete darkness, and my favourite song rises, and caught myself in an embrace arm! Singing and swaying along the fav tune, felt ultimate of happiness. Cant deny i am an emotional person, a petulant cry baby too, therefore, a gush of tears instantly rolls down my cheeks. Luckily it was dark, he didnt realise. *wink* Still could feel the warm hug when i am writting this post.

Love is only a feeling? Off course! but the feeling is so strong that keeps me moving everyday. Like a reason to survive. I was once surprise how ppl who are in love acting in dumb manner, even questioned thier sanity. I guess i am having a state of completely unsoundness of mind too. Welcome to my lunatic asylum!

Specky, peace and sunset




My sister was busy infront of the pc, and i was in the same room with her cracking my head out to complete my mini project's report. Silent was dominating the room, which i obviously going cuckoo with the tensed situation. Suddenly, i broke the silence," wanna go morib?" Without much second toughts, she agrees. Guess she wasnt having much fun with the pc also. Nyek nyek.

Once reach, i quickly bought myself a cone of ice-cream. Yeap, those ice-cream sold by those motorbikers, with the nostalgic sound of ice-cream bell! Sis was busy chewing on corns. Walk around the beach, snap some blurred picture with my phone. the wind the sunset, plain awesome. hihi..

But wat was coming more even surprising. We decided to drive to another side of the beach where there are more sand. We were driving in my kancil, noticed that so many cars are driving towards a deserted road. "Wanna follow them?" Hell yes!! The road was straight,narrow, long, looks like there's no ending to the road, and drivers in other cars seem to noe where are they going. But I didnt care too much, coz the scenery by the road was fabolous. Forgive me i cant describe with beautiful english.There were coconut trees lining up along the road, swaying welcoming our arrival, and the oceans, the waves, and still the sun set!!everything seems to be so harmony and peaceful. Finally, the seem nv ending road comes to an end. It leads to a very large empty place, where there are scattered of malay stalls by a beautiful beach. Too bad we were too late for the kayaking. Nxt time!

We were happy for the discovery. Find one day, shud really go for the kayaking. In the end of day, we do what we always do the best. Finding food to cure our tummy! Chew on our food in our mouth, still happy we found a great place!! Perfect day!

L'atto di fuggire

Been always wanted to blog since long time ago, but due to the fact that my life is plain ordinary and simple, or one word, Dull. Afraid that there's nothing much to write about my life. Until today, to hell with everything. Hesitated for a second during the clicking on "sign up for my own blog", without realising myself keeps on clicking on continue, and there goes, Hualah! my blogspot is created. At first, i was having problem of thinking the title for my blog. Suddenly strike my mind an online lesson of Italiano, L'atto di fuggire, means Running away. Fuggire means escape.Running away? and escape? from what? where? who? i am still finding out. Anyway, my first post! Cheers!
