Unexpected visitor

My mom woke me up from my sleep yesterday morning and urgently whispered for me to go follow her and see something. I stumbled after her, bleary-eyed to my brother's room. Then she pointed out the door that leads to the balcony. Perched on the balcony wall was a monkey. Yes, you read right. A monkey. It was sitting there chomping on a piece of bread. I quickly went to get the camera, but by the time I got back, it had decided to abandon its perch on the balcony and climb onto the palm tree nearby.

After rummaging around the tree and finding that the fruit there was not edible, it then proceeded to climb down the tree and drop into the garden.

(that's the piece of bread btw)

Then, after nibbling on the bread a while, it then jumped out of my garden and onto my neighbour's wall.

It then disappeared. Dunno where it went. Thought that was a one off sighting.

But today, after I finished walking my fat dog. I reached home to find my neighbours standing outside and talking to each others. Then one of them told me that the monkey was back. And it was sitting on an alter eating the oranges that were set out. -_-" Another neighbour (an old man) approached it, and it bared its teeth at him and almost jumped on him. That thing isn't afraid of people at all. Damn dangerous. Now just worried about my dog. Sigh.. He's too dumb to resist andI highly doubt that he is a match for that psycho monkey. :s 

The Proposal

I've only just watched this movie recently. I know I know....! Pretty slow. But I only managed to get my hands on a clear copy of the movie a few days back. The ones I downloaded in the past were of bad quality, and I absolutely refuse to spoil my movie experience by watching shitty versions of the movie.

OMG. I loved it! It was so funny. And I don't know why... but I loved the whole story line and the setting of the movie. Especially the setting! Sigh... It's so beautiful and peaceful. How I wish that I could have a home and a life like that. Like I've mentioned, city life is not for me. Maybe for a holiday or for work. But in the end, I want my HOME to be somewhere like that. A place where I can just BE. Nothing to hassle me.. nothing to worry about. Sitting around reading or soaking up nature, just simple things like that.

I'm feeling so depressed right now. That somewhere out there, a place like that really exists and its not mine. :( I think I'm going to re-watch the movie now. I normally don't like re-watching movies. But this movie is an exception. :) I just love love love watching it.

If you haven't watched the movie.... GO WATCH IT IMMEDIATELY!!!

P.s - I am now very into Ryan Reynolds. :)

Prom

Well, yesterday was my prom night. Too lazy to type a long post. Bascially, I was rushing an assignment and managed to finish at 3 pm. I then had a hair appointment at 4. So I went to uni to pass up the assignment and then headed straight for salon. Reached there on time, but that place was full of people and there were too few stylists. Make up appointment was at 4.45 pm. The idea was that the first person to finish hair will go do make up first. There were 3 of us and only 1 make up lady. But salon only started on hair at 4.45pm. -_-" So, 2 of us were done with hair at 5.45pm. Rushed to get make up. The lady told us she needed 30 mins per person. We thought she was exaggerating. She wasn't. I went first, and she really took 30 mins. But kudos to her, she was really meticulous and I think she did a good job. I didn't recognise myself. Haha. Emm... okay. Laziness struck. I don't feel like typing anymore details. So anyway, needless to say, we were late for prom and the jam due to the Black Eyed Peas concert did not help the situation much. But we reached in one piece. I'll let the pics do the talking for now. ;)

After make up and hair, sans the dress (make up really does wonders! :D)

On the way there in the car

YC, YH, Me, Clara

My uni gang!! Finally, a complete pic!

And now.. Time for the food!

More photos should be up on FB. Takes too long to upload here. :) That's all folks!

Hate hate hate

Hate KL! Sigh... Back here already so quickly. I can feel the energy draining out of me the closer I get to KL. Maybe it's because I've associated work and obligations with KL. Either way, I despise coming back here. I'm just not cut out for the city life. Sigh... Back when I was in school I couldn't wait to get out of Ipoh. Now, I'm always counting the days til I get back. Life is seriously so full of irony.

Haha

Yeah, yeah, ya
Your ass
Is wider
Than a
Bus tire
Of you

I want a fat babe

Eat me
A whole pound
Of steak

Biggie fries
With a 64 ounce milk shake
Supersize
Every step is like an Earth quake
You're so wide
Queen of the all you can eat buffet
I want a fat babe

Thin girls they're starvin'
For what we're carvin'
What they say
Has no weight
Cause I want a fat babe

Cherry pie
You got that extra cushion
Thunder thighs
Much better for the pushin'
Slip and slide
Next to you I'm always in the shade
I want a fat babe

Magazines and the movie screens
Say thin is the way to be
Yeah
But you can't go the distance
With out some resistance
The bigger the better for me

Your ass is wider
Than a church choir
Eat more
Eat More
Eat More
Eat More

I wanna her you say
I'm having some shake-n-bake
Jenny Craig is a mistake
(Don't want a skinny bitch)
Ally McBeal I hate
(I hate)
I'll be a fat babe

Eat it fried
Please don't leave with out more dinner
Extra sides
Baby sexy isn't thinner
Open wide
I never want to see you loose weight
(Don't want a skinny bitch)
I want a fat babe

Tell me why
That ain't nothing but a fruit plate
You're dieting to loose weight
It's not right
TAE-BOE took all your pounds away
I want a fat babe

Cause I want a fat babe



The lyrics is friggin hilarious... Even after all these years I still laugh when I watch this video. So many years ago this came out. :)

Pizza Uno

Yesterday we decided to celebrate my friend Yin Hui's birthday with a dinner. Most of us were sick of eating in the Sunway area slready, so we wanted to eat somewhere else. So Ming suggested Pizza Uno where she went with her brothers before. I've been there before too and the food is good! So Pizza Uno it was!

Well, it was a Friday night on the weekend of Hari Raya... We thought there wouldn't be a lot of traffic considering most people will be flying back to their hometowns at that time. Boy, were we WRONG. The traffic was still insane. Perhaps a LITTLE less extreme if compared to a regular Friday, but it was bad nonetheless.

By the time we actually reached Pizza Uno (thanks to Ming's trusty GPS!), we were starving! Luckily the restaurant wasn't that full when we got there. But it eventually filled up though. We placed our orders and waited for the food to come. Unfortunately, serving time was longer than I would've liked. But the food itself made up for everything. Hehe..

PHOTO TIME

Yin Hui's Chicken Parmigiana

Ming's Terragon Chicken and Rissotto (???) can't rmbr. hehe

Me and my Baked Pasta :p

Another friend ordered the Carbonara, but by the time her dish arrived, the rest of us were to busy stuffing our faces to take pictures of it. :) And, what would the evening be without desserts??

Sticky Date Pudding with Vanilla Ice Cream

Warm Choc Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream

The desserts were shared amongst ourselves. Both were good. The chocolate cake was a bit heavy so it was a good thing that we shared it. The date pudding was much lighter and more manageable. Good good good. Must go there again. The cons would be that it has the typical KL pricing (RM20++) and that the way there is normally crazy jammed at dinner time during normal days.

Basically, dinner was great. How can it not be? Good company and good food. And I think all of us needed that as we all had a hectic week. :)

Damn... Writing this post made me hungry. T.T

Seriously?

I am having a very 'What the hell' moment right now...

Like I said yesterday, my internet gave out on me the day before my assignment was due. Thereby forcing me to run around borrow people's (friend, roomate, uni... you name it) internet. I called the P1 people yesterday and they informed me that the P1 tower in my area is being serviced and that the internet will be up and running by 7 or 8 pm YESTERDAY.

But... that didn't happen. So, again, I had to go to my friend's place. Then this morning I tried the internet yet again. And yet again, there was no connection. So, I had to go to Uni to finish up my assignment. Thank goodness, I managed to finish. But I can't comment on the quality. Hope it's good enough.

Just got back to my room, and GUESS WHAT.

The internet's back.

P.s - Thanks to my dear for calming me down. I had a major panic attack yesterday. Who knows if I would've managed to finish if he didn't calm me down. :) Sigh.. LDRs suck.

Irate

I can't begin to describe how annoyed I am today. I went to uni to look for my tutor because he seemed like a nice guy, and I needed to clarify some stuff about my assignment. I went to his tutorial class and... HE DIDN'T SHOW UP. One of the students went to look for him. But turns out even the lecturer doesn't know where he is. Must've been an emergency. Of all friggin days! The assignment is due tmr.. I've been staring at it since Sunday night. And I have made ZERO progress. I can't understand what the question wants. I can't understand! So, I went to look for the lecturer instead. She was so evasive! I ask one ques, she give me yes/no and abrupt answers. And kept telling me stuff from the assignment ques. Hey, I know how to read okay. I don't need you to repeat the question for me. Your stupid question is so bloody general and broad that I have no clue what you want me to write ok. So, until NOW I have no idea what the hell I'm supposed to be writing.

And I woke up this morning to find that my websites have jammed. Fine. So I forced quit the browser. And when I tried to open it back... I CAN'T CONNECT ANYMORE. What a friggin shitty shitty day. Internet is essential for assignments. I can't NOT have internet. Luckily my roomate was kind enough to lend me hers. I'm using it now. This afternoon I had to use another friend's one. I am so irate right now. I can't even arrange my thoughts. I'm scared and semi-panicked. I don't know whether I'll make it.

And then I read that he will definitely not be coming back here anymore. That was the final nail in my coffin. Of course, he did mention it. But, you know, you do hope. Well I guess that's that.

WTH

Stomach ache again. Haih... Not sure whether it's the food or what. So annoying.. I've no mood to eat out anymore. Spend money (not today tho) and there are always negative after effects. In fact, I'm in no mood to even leave my room anymore. Can I just stay here and pretend that there's nothing else going on beyond these room walls? I know I know.. Stupid question. But one can hope right?

10 Promises To My Dog

Remember my high expectation for a tear jerker movie? Well... This movie totally fit the bill. I was tearing up within the first 15 mins and bawling my eyes out by the end of the show. The movie is so touching. I don't know... Maybe I'm the only one who finds it so. I was talking to my uncle about the movie and he said, and I quote "u are such a sucker for dog movies!". Hehe.. It might be true though. I cried for Marley & Me as well. Both times I watched it. Maybe it's because the content struck a nerve. Oh well, either way, I highly recommend the movie!

Is..

Suddenly in the mood for a tear jerker. I think I'll watch tonight. When room mate's asleep or not around. Hopefully I have one hidden somewhere..

Cheapo Airline

Hopefully Air Asia doesn't follow the footsteps of this imaginary (or is it?) airline. :)

Midvalley

Met up with Whye this afternoon after my classes were over at Midvalley. We were mostly in the Gardens though. Went to have lunch coz I hadn't eaten yet. :p Ate at a taiwanese restaurant, if I'm not mistaken. But I forgot the name of the place. Haha. Bad of me, I know. But the food was good!

Normal KL price, around RM20. The portion was a large and complete meal. They even included chinese soup in the rice meal. Nice touch. ;) I couldn't even finish the food.

After that, Whye and I bought movie tickets for 'The Ugly Truth' and then went to Pets Wonderland til it was time for the movie. Eli joined us for the movie. 

The movie was very funny, although most of the things that the main character said was very very crude. It makes me cringe just remembering it. I recommend you watch it. Not necessarily in the cinema, it is a chick flick after all. But I don't regret watching it in the cinema. We watched the movie in GSC Signature which was in the Gardens. The seats were really nice. They could recline and even had small little side tables that you can put your popcorn and stuff on. :D

After that, went for dinner. Unfortunately it was buka puasa time. So all the restaurants were full and had lines in front of them. After trying a few different places, we finally gave up and settled for Madam Kwan's. Even that we had to wait around 20 mins to get a place. By that time KY and Manda joined us already.

Went for dessert in Delicious after dinner. Dessert was yummy! But very filling. We split the cakes among ourselves. We were so stuffed after dessert.

Left - Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream

Right - Banana & Peach crumble

Bottom - Hot chocolate with marshmallows (KY's)

Twas a good day. Have to concentrate more in studies. All play and no work makes Jane a stupid girl. :p

No cow sense

What the hell man. I just found my container of leafy vegetables in the freezer. FREEZER. One of my housemates moved it there to make space for their stupid crap. Eh, got brain a not one? The vegetable frozen already how to eat? Even if I thaw it, it will be limp and wilted. Idiot. I have half a mind to throw her stuff away.

Wasted my food. Just wait. I'm going to stuff the fridge full will my stuff.
The fridge is damn disgusting lor. The shelves are stained will all sorts of unrecognisable liquids. And a lot of the crap in there is not even edible anymore. So tempted to throw those space wasters out. Damn annoying.

P.s - Anyone know how to add a video into a post on Blogger? :s

Interrim

A lot has happened. But I've an assignment due. So will only update later. :)

Lethargic

Been feeling so damn lethargic lately. I've been getting a minimum of 6 or 7 hours sleep. Which should be enough to last me through the day. Maybe not the WHOLE day, but at least a large portion of the day. That is not the case now, however. I'm tired by lunch time and my concentration is shot. Not only do I feel tired, I LOOK tired. People have noticed. Some even thought I'm not feeling well. But I really don't get it. I know people that get less sleep than me, yet, they seem perfectly fine.

Take my room mate for example. Dude, she's like superwoman okay. For the past week, she only returns to the room after I have fallen asleep and is already awake when I wake up. Sometimes, I can see the strain on her, but it's never as bad as how I look. And she's doing so much more than me.

Honestly, I admire her very much. All I need is just 1/4 of her energy and determination. And I'll be set. Oh yeah, another person who this applies to also is GS. Everything above applies to him as well. This was the case even back in Form 6. I remember when I'd get just one less hour of sleep than usual and people will ask me if I've been up the whole night. Whereas the ACTUAL person who was up the whole night (GS) is bouncing around and making noise like nobodies business. No one even asks him. Haha.. LEND ME YOUR POWER.
