Nothing

The Smiling Lieutenant

omgomgomgOMG!!!!! People people listen. i just found the funniest, awesomest blck&whte film E.V.E.R.... like ever ever ever. Seriously, you should watch it if it kills you to find it. It's called -The Smiling Lieutenant- It has a plot as corny as anything but forget that! It's so hilarious and at the same time, it can make you cry (sad cry, not happy cry). It tells of a Lieutenant Niki in Austria who meets a beautiful violinist, Franzi and they fall in love. One day, when the King of Flausenthurm (neighbouring country) visits the Austrian Emperor with his daughter, Princess Anna, fate literally shat on the poor Lieutenant Niki. He was supposed to be on the military welcoming committee. And as the royal carriage was passing by, Niki saw his beloved across the street and winked. Princess Anna caught his wink and thought it was directed at her. The King and princess were angry at his supposed impudence and summoned him to their quarters. By some horrible mistake, Princess Anna thought Niki was in love with her. Niki was ordered to marry her at once. Boy, was Niki bust. He had to move to Flausenthurm with his wife and the King. There, he was not happy because he misses Austria and doesn't love the princess. One day, he discovers that Franzi and her group of traveling musicians were performing in Flausenthurm. Thus begins an affair between them (i don't condone this btw). Naughty naughty! The princess discovers their affair and summons Franzi to the palace. But check this, Franzi and the princess became friends and the sexy violinist teaches her how to be the opposite of her dowdy self to win the affections of her husband. i love it! When Franzi's work was done, she bid Princess Anna goodbye and best wishes. Niki, when he saw his transformed, now drop-dead-gorgeous wife finally falls in love with her.

Sad part: When Franzi finds out Niki's predicament and decides to quietly leave him. When the carriage sending him home arrives at his doorstep, Franzi (who lives in) quickly packs and writes him a goodbye note. She leaves one of her garters for him to remember her by.

Funny parts (just about everything):
1. When Niki finds out he has to marry Princess Anna (did you see his face? Hahaha)
2. The royal courtiers are getting the bedroom ready for the bride and groom. Their methodical preparation is enough to draw laughs. Then the announcers says "i now declare the royal bedchamber, a bedchamber".
3. Outside the room, other courtiers announce, "we declare this royal wedding day, a royal wedding night".
4. Niki kissed the King and said "That's as far as i'll go", when he refused to sleep with the princess.
5. The King enters their bedroom and finds Anna after Niki her. He carried a checkers set to take her mind off things. omg this part is damn funny. *well if he won't sleep with you, lets play checkers!*
6. In the dining hall, the King, princess and Niki are eating schnitzel out of a cow the princess had specially ordered from Austria. Niki says "Poor cow. To start life in Vienna and end it in Flausenthurm". He gets up to leave and says "As a gentleman, i say thank you. As a Viennese, i say Moooooooooooooo".
7. Niki is on top of the moon when he returns to the castle after a rondezvous with Franzi and when he bumps into the King and Princess Anna he sings and dances with Anna. They were both elated. Anna: "He danced with me". King: "And he called me Daddy."
8. After Anna has been hotified, Niki hears jazz on the piano and he runs to her bedroom they were supposed to share but he refused. He saw her new hot self and runs back to his own chamber to check if the wine he drank earlier was expired.

Crying in Parliament

That Thursday on lunch break after Management lecture in Ayamas

We were blabbing to each other about assignments and how it much it screws us up. All of us can agree on the fact that it makes us cry. Yes, seriously. Assignments can make people cry. I guess deep down, we’re all sensitive souls. *cue toot*…

Mohani started elaborating about how it stresses her out and how she’ll start breaking down when it becomes too much.

Rachel said once when she had to hand in Media Law it was such a terrible experience with her car issues and all that so she had to cry.

Nahda said it was very straining with all the datelines to follow and how she even freaks out when she gets yelled at. Then she brought in the working scenario too and how she’ll start going all weepy if the bosses start screaming.

For me it’s a little different. I don’t cry for every assignment. I can take it for as long as I can hold out. Of course with a little complaining and the occasional shouting at random people. It just builds and builds until it’s at its peak and come the final straw, Niagara Falls.......ok…I just described a volcano didn’t I? <.< Today in Media Context tutorial

Nahda

We were talking about the same topic (sobbing about work in case your pathetic squirrel-like attention span wasn’t working on the earlier paragraphs). Nahda asked Ju Enn if she had ever sobbed about this. This was a silly question to ask Ju Enn considering it’s Ju Enn! What?! Ju Enn the composed, levelheaded, never-screams/shouts/yells girl? I don’t think so!!! As expected, Ju Enn’s answer was “No! Why would I cry over assignments?” with that *wth?* look on her face. Haha hilarious.

Then I said: “omg imagine if I got a job in some hard hitting newspaper corporation and I had to cover news about Parliament proceedings instead of just applying for a silly magazine where I can HeheheheAheeeeeee like I always do. I probably wouldn’t know the first thing to write and start sobbing in Parliament. Just imagine. Parliament is proceeding, with the MPs all discussing their stuff. Suddenly they hear this annoying whiny sobby sound and they all go ‘who da heck set that stupid ringtone?’. Then all heads rotate 360° to one corner where there’s some girl crying her eyes out all over her notes/doodles. I can see the MPs getting up from their seats and walking over to me and say: ‘What’s the matter, child? Why are you crying? Don’t cry. You’re notes are all illegible now. There there. Here’s a tissue. Dry your eyes.’”

Crying in Parliament……

Conclusion: Boy, I can really crap!

Stop ABUSE!!!

Will someone for the love of freagatootingness report the case of neglect and abuse of this blog to the authorities!!!

of all the Girly things to do

YES!!!! After such a long period of assignments and torture, we were finally free on Tuesday to go Midvalley and dance naked.....joke joke. Me and my girls spent our first day of freedom eating and shopping. The top two activities to destress. And it felt soooooooo good.

First off was the KTM. i took it to Setia Jaya to fetch Nahda. And we bumped into *drumroll* Mohani!!! Yay we didn't need to dupe her after all. Haha. And it was all the way to Sentral from there. At Sentral, they announced that the Seremban train would be delayed so we decided to chill at Starbucks for awhile. After a drink and some camwhoring, it was time to go. As we were heading for the platform, we heard the announcer say "Train to Seremban will be arriving shortly. Train ke Seremban akan tiba sebentar lagi." OMG!!!

It was RUN RUN RUN all the way. We pushed past people like a wild stampede and trampled on the guys in the blue uniforms to get to our platform. Haha it was like some psychotic scene out of a bad movie. And people were like "what the friggin toot is wrong with those gorillas!" Hahaha.

But we made it too the train anyway. Then Nahda treated to us to some rocking fondue. Mmmm, marshmallows dipped in chocolate topped with chocolate chips. Absolute heaven. Then we called Chel. Haha. We were on the first floor and she was on the ground floor. i stood at the balcony with the phone in one hand and waved my other hand like i was stranded at some island and trying to get the attention of a passing ship.

It was hilarious. Chel was on her phone and going "where? where? i don't see you. And i said "up here. turn around. no, other way. up here. look up in the balcony, i'm waving." i dunno what happened but i'm guessing she spotted me. So she went up the escalator and we all sat waiting for Ju Enn with our fondue. Hoho.

Next stop, Pasta Zanmai. My first time there. Boy was it good. Chel was to first to make the grand entrance and it must have been damn grand coz this waiter guy started checking her out! i'm serious. Like his eyes couldn't stop following her. And when we sat, he was still turning towards our table! Hahaha Rachel's in denial!

We ordered our food and it came pretty quick. Ju Enn and i shared some pasta. Forgot what it's called. But it has salmon. The salmon kinda look like carrots here. And would you believe it, the waiter who was checking Rachel out, came to our table with a block of cheese (and proposed to her) and the grater and grated cheese on the plate that was directly in front of her. He didn't give a hoot about the other plates. What.The.TooooooooooT. Lawlzzz man! How obvious can he be. And Rachel was still in denial. Hahahahahaha

For dessert we had this green tea ice-cream. It had cream, apples, cucumber and jelly in it. It was ok la. i liked the jelly and cream. But the green tea ice-cream was kinda freaky on the taste buds.

oooooooooooh and some vanilla ice-cream crepe suzette. wow i love desserts even more now. <3

Then they made me pose like some weirdo hogging the dessert. i look like the bad guy here. boooooooooooooooooooo. Chel said i looked like a little kid. Haha a little kid stealing all the ice-cream.

*munch*munch*crunch*gobble*gobble*chew*chew*crunch*

Another typical pose. Haha. Ju Enn and i. Cheers to the birthday brat!

It was great and not for nothing. i had a lot of fun. Too bad i couldn't stay for the movie though. They went home later so they could watch a foreign movie. It's called Caramel. What a delicious name. Mohani and Chel gave it thumbs up ratings. But never mind. i'm no movie buff anyway.

Happy Birthday us

18th April 2009,
We went to (no surprise) a chinese restaurant to celebrate my Grandma's birthday. It's sort of a combined birthday for me and my uncle as well coz we're all April babies. It was very memorable (for various mad reasons Haha). Everyone who's anyone turned up. Including my "dentist", Uncle Kelvin who extracted my teeth and got to see my braces that night.

i could only be bothered to take the first and last dish. So here's the first one. It's like those season things but separated on individual plates.

And this was the last one before the cakes. i liked those little ball things. They tasted like marshmallows and some red gummy thing in the middle.

Out came the cakes after that. My aunt bought them from Secret Recipe. Cheesecake and chocolate cake. It was cheesy and chocolatey. In other words, yum.

On the cheesecake it said "from your grandkids".

On the chocolate one it said "from your kids".

My parents had fun too. Mmm...cake. Dad thought i was 21 o.O

My Grandma is officially 70 now and i'm 20 today. Age gap? 10 million lightyears <3>

You go Grandma!

*********************

Hmmm the people i thought would, didn't

The people i wouldn't have imagined would, did

Fragile unpredictability eh?

By the way, i'm 20 today.
xoxo

Easter was awesome and so was my aunt's return.

Let's start off with the earlier occasion. Easter was da bomb for me. Our church had a large-scale musical in the Bukit Jalil stadium from Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Then there was a Sunday service in the morning as well. Also held in the stadium. Oh i had such gorgeous fun! My family and i got ready and rushed like mad to the stadium coz my dad was involved with security. Thank goodness the vest they issued the staff was not that hideous blinding lime green like you see some traffic police wear. i camwhored before leaving. Way excited to get there. <3> But darnit la wei. It was so dark and i didn't know the night mode for my hp camera at that time (i found out how to use it some days later -_-). So the shots were beyond F-grade. Potong.

But the night was crazy awesome and i really enjoyed myself. i give the musical a standing ovation. They even had a real horse as part of the acting crew. It was the donkey that Jesus sat on during Palm Sunday. Haha i saw them leading the horse out through the exit after that scene was over. The cruxifiction scene was great too. They actor who played Jesus looked like he was suspended on the cross.

i sooo can't wait for next year. eeeeeeeek <3>

The next big excitement was my aunt's return from Beijing. So we went to my uncle's house where she'll be staying till she leaves. It was great seeing them again. And Didi's grown a little too. Haha my uncle's dog wearing his pyjamas that says "Must love dog".

My little cousin is really really pretty. Oh the sunshine. <3

She still hadn't changed much. Still the same hyperactive kid from the last time she was in Malaysia.

My aunt got us gifts. i received two bags from her. This is one.

And this black one i'm using for college now. You know what that means. i have to bury my past. My precious old bag. Handmade by moi's own hands. Carefully painted, painstakingly sewn together. Boohoohoo. i'm gona miss my baby. i'll never forget you. Well, duh i won't coz still be hanging round my room anyway.

When I'm soaking in my bath
I dump you in the tub
There's no need to say another word,
You had me at "Glub"
Your bowl became my world,
So my world is empty now
All my love's caught in your filter
It needs to get to you somehow
They say that there's plenty of fish in the sea
but you're the only one for me.
Without you, I'm a fish out of water
I'm hooked, please throw a line to me

STFU
