You know, the guy who drew out from American Idol last year? YEAH! He's got his new single out! OH WOW!
I've ALWAYS been cheering for him. but, American Idol is one show where they do not appreciate real talent. He's so not worth being shot-negative-feedback-from-Simon for. and was I glad that he drew out of the competition. (though I kinda missed watching him).
Anypants, I was just lazing around after the terawih prayers channel surfing, and then when I got to Channel V, I froze.
I gapped. I gasped. I widen my eyes. and I shrieked.
He hasn't changed A BIT! His song, Gallery, is okay. R&B, jiwang kind of stuff. Doesn't show off a lot of his captivating voice. It took me a while to actually like it.
Now? I LOVE IT! Both him and his song :D
and by the way, he is NOT,
I repeat,
HE
IS
NOT
GAY.
Ok, I was just being denial. but whatever.

oh, Ka Irlen said my short hair is high-lighting my cheeks, making them look chubbier.
HMPH!

TV, TV, TV!
I just realised that the number one MOST talked/typed story in ones blog is either about a) Grey's Anatomy, b) One Tree Hill, c) Prison Break d) dan sebagainya
Siuk banar kah? i seriously don't know since all i watch is either MTV or Disney-slash-Nickelodeon..
Now before you start the oh-my-god-you-still-watch-cartoons shits, i just want you to know that cartoons are a privilege. So make yourself a favour and stop being naive.
Now where were we? Oh, right. the TV series people obsessing about. my reasons for not following it are: a) I can't find time to watch it b) Even if i do, i don't have time to download it c) and even if i do have time to download or buy the DVD, i'll be spending the whole entire day watching the whole season. Cause i simply can't resist the suspends. (thus, answering reason (a) )
and why is this wrong? 'cause then i won't do any of my homeworks/revision.
So from what i have read in various blogs, i decide that i might give them a chance to let my eyes wonder upon the screen that has the TV series (mentioned earlier) displayed on it.
After the exams that is ;) cause i'd be jobless then.
Speaking of television, something is seriously wrong about the one in the TV room.
Ah, yes. The infamous television set of ours.
That television, has seen better days.
Now, it's just a wreck. WRECK. The quality has recently became poorer in a sense that it'll cast shadows, making it nearly impossible to watch a decent program. Furthermore, It degrades my vision from all that straining.
So now, dad's thinking of getting a new plasma TV. Oh YAY!

nyeh.
i went to the salon to get my hair trimmed today. but my mom wanted me to cut some off since it's been showing out of my tudong. so then, i was like yeah, ok, fine whatever.
i thought i was gonna lose an inch or two, but no. I LOST A WHOLE 5-INCHES OF MY HAIR!
so it's now absolutely short.
I'M PERTURBED. SERIOUSLY.
aww.. I miss my sort-of-long hair oh-so-fondly!
NOO. AAHHH. NOOO. AAHH. AAHHH.
okay. so it takes some getting used to.
sigh. how screwed up.

English Oral Exam
everyone seem to find the oral exam enjoyable :)
it's waaayyyy BETTER than the malay oral exam. as there were many laughing involved ;D
our conversation started off with what game to i like to play - which in reply i said DDR (Dance Dance Revolution), to karokae (sp?) with my dad, to P.Ramlee, then the O'Level preperations, to blogging, and lastly, why we should put a bomb on Mister Softy, since it's been interfering with little kids in their attempt to make a whole day of fasting.
anyway, such friendly fellows those examiners were :)
will you now give me an A?

drowsiness on a Wednesday
i woke up for school at 7 today. I KNOW! i had to rush through shower and putting on my uniform for 10 minutes!
bumped into Amal on the way to class, and she said i looked tired. HECK, I was! considering i had only 2-3 hours of sleep. blame the internet. so, teachers who thought that i wasn't paying attention in class - which was totally NOT true, cause i really was trying my best to stay awake throughout the lesson - may sue me in finding the internet rather interesting.
anyway,
Chemistry... test... MCQs... payah.
Physics... revision... sleepy... (but Ms Siow's high amplitude voice made my heart jump and my eyes wide open.)
Bio... mRNA... amino acids... essays..??
after recess we went to the auditorium for the Toronto Biology Awards. damn was i sleepy. but i try not to look drowsy as the photographers were happily snapping pictures at the students. now i don't want me in the pictures to look like a sober person, now do i? so i took out my mp3, listen to some high-volumed rock music, and joke around with my friends... so i might have this joyful-face-that-it-convinced-a-hell-lot-of-person-that-me-being-present-at-this-award-ceremony-was-really-exciting look, that the photographers would think that having me in the pictures was worth to be placed in their article in Borneo Bulletin or Brunei Times tomorrow ;)
the award ceremony didn't last til 11. URGH! still had time for POA. which we were again been given past years' MCQs.
as we were discussing over the answers, Teacher Dina told us some of the answers we answered were wrong, (when clearly Cambridge was the one who got the answers screwed up). so we spend 20minutes arguing with Teacher Dina why we're the one with the right answer. Teacher Dina agreed with us, but still insist that the Cambridge's report was right...
... in a confusing way, that is.
oh sigh. Khaliq was so right about it being a conspiracy.
got home around half past twelve, and i went straight to bed.. ...and forgot that i had tution at 2pm
woke up at ten past two with a panic. dressed myself and went for tution. on the way, Amal kept miss-calling me, in attempt to remind me that tution starts at 2 (you should've missed called me earlier, Mal, but i appreciated it though *winks*) got there at 2.30. at least i didn't miss out anything important, right?
im gonna turn in early tonight. i can't resist the snugness of my bed after a looonngg drowsy day.
oh, and wish me luck! For my English Oral exam is tomorrow

and don't forget your niats..
this post was meant for yesterday. but heck, better late than never.

Ku mengharaaapkan Ramadhan kali iniii penuh maknaaa sumthing sumthiiiing sumthing sumthing dengan sempurnaaaa
if you don't know the song, than you should be ashamed of yourself. Raihan kaliaahh! i think, but please do correct me if i'm wrong ;)
Today my dear friends, is the first day of school in the fasting month, and everyone in class were feeling hyper.
tell me now, what's wrong with that picture? (though nada picture aku post)
yeah, they should be feeling dehydrated and tired, and should stay put to conserve their energy for further use since it was only 9 o'clock in the morning. instead, they're jumping off the walls and laughing their heads off like lunatics.
I, for once, am not kidding. they were really jumping off the walls.
but then, i have no complaints. it's better that way, instead of having them all look like hungry, energy-less zombies.
here's some tips in What to do and What NOT to do during fasting:
1) "khutbah cakap jangan cakap kusung masa puasa" - Khaliq 2) "kalau tani beair-con inda karing leher and tani gain energy lagi" -Mona 3) just sleep til 6pm if your a lazy bumbum (conclusion to Kahar's story) 4) try not to stare at your chinese friends' water bottle during class, and 5) watch Jejak Rasul while waiting for sungkai ;) - Nyla
got his from K-Ni: oh.. and here's what my late grandfather used to say in his niat "Nawaitu sauma radin, nasi di suap, lauk di pigang" XD i so miss him. may he rest in peace.

im gonna go hunt for some cakoi di stadium now. toodles!

in letting you go i'm loving myself
whoa. scary. is it me or is there really smog out there?
as i drew my curtains this morning (well, not actually morning, more like midday), i thought my windows were fogged up. rupanya jerebu..
This.. is so alarming.
*****
so today's the first day of puasa! YAY! i was kind of hyper during sahur (ie. singing and laughing at bapa's messy-bed-hair-and-droopy-eyes look). considering i only had 2 hours of sleep, this is rather peculiar. then i didn't went straight back to sleep after subuh prayers (like i always did), i did some reading instead. went back to bed around 6am ...slept til 1pm. oh yeah, sleeping rocks. especially when you're fasting.
i want cindul for sungkai.
*****
i kinda dig JoJo's new song, Too Little Too Late. i even got it on repeat. dunno why i like it so much. maybe because it seems to be revolving around my past occurance with this guy. and evethough i've totally gotten over it, i can't help to remember how useless he was and worse, how gullible I was, and that the secure feeling of my action towards it just gets stronger everytime i listen/sing to this.
i know. i could really get all gushy sometimes. ;)

My Life is Brilliant
Wednesday night left me feeling confused.
Babu flew off to KL to visit kaka Titie and famili. and as usual, everyone was too malas to cook. (me excluded, cause well, i can't cook). this leads to greasy (not to mention high cholestrol) takeout foods. then dad started to disappear just so to attend some, i don't know, meetings i suppose. so me and K-Nah decided on sushi. then, we got a call that my aunt was admitted to the hospital.
so we went to the hospital... poor aunt, sebak dadaku nyamuuu. kan meruhung saja inda. no really, im serious. (i decide to not write about it, incase i might leave you feeling emotionally distorted.)
so anyway, K-Nah said she wanted to catch the 9.30 Miami Vice show. so i was like yeah whatever, but she gotta feed my rumbling tummy. since it was ten to nine, we reckoned that we'd take the sushi a raincheck and head straight to the Mall. on the way, we were talking about how hot Colin Farell might look in that movie, then K-Nah was like "siapakan tu?" and pointed out that there's this guy in the car next to us (masa arah that BIG roundabout) liat-liat, trying to catch my attention, and when we made eye contact, he was like waving, then i thought, oh hey, it's Hanif! and i smiled back before we turned to different directions.
turns out it wasn't him.
ok, so erm..
i just made goo goo eyes with a stranger. he musta've thought i gave him the green light. hmph. but, it's not my fault they look alike. damn, whoever you are, you're so lucky that i smiled at you. i never smile. at random guys i mean. unless he's hot. but whatever..
sampai Mall, bought tickets. and K-Nah bought me Jollibee skebetti.
i love Jollibee skebetti. don't you just love Jollibee skebetti? they're just soo...
nyummy.
anyways, the fries didn't arrive til the last minute the show was about to start. so kami pikir, bawa saja tia masuk eh. as my sister was giving the tickets at the ticket-checker guy, the other guy worker was looking at me holding the fries and gave me this look that says "you're not suppose to bring that in". so i just flashed my oh-don't-worry-i-won't-mess-up-the-place smile and fluttered my eyelashes.
i know. two smiling-as-if-you're-flirting to strangers in one night. that's soooo un-Marha-ish.
Miami Vice was just so..
confusingly boring.
we got in late, so i was tryina catch up. but i couldn't. the plot was all so jumbled up, i don't even know what the character's name was (leave alone what their mission was) and what's more disturbing was Colin Farrell wasn't even that hot looking. so i lost interest..
...and fell asleep.
and let me tell you, falling asleep in cinema means SERIOUS BOREDOM. if it wasn't for the explosions and gunshots, i would've drool over the lady's shoulder next to me. and what's with the endless intimate scenes? ever heard of censording?? there were like, kids watching it that night. hmph.
after that, we went to Coffeezone cause we were kinda hungry. and i didn't know about their BIG-ASS burger. haha..so i had fun watching my sister's friend figuring how to gobble it and how to finish it up :D somehow, i was craving for Onion rings. i don't even like onions. they make my breath stink. but thank god God invented breath mints ;)
