play

Buahaha. Today was another interesting day. I slept at 2am this morning studying for my undang test that I was gonna take, or at least I thought, at 8am. I woke up at 6.30am and waited for my instructor to come and fetch me to the centre to resit my exam. (Which I failed the last time with 41/50 cause I did it in English.)

And so, I was since 8.15am. I waited, and waited, and WAITED for about one hour and a half and entered the exam room at 9.45am. I took my time, slowly reading the questions and answered the questions, checking once through after I finished. I'm glad to say that I've passed. :)

46 / 50

Well, that wasn't all I did today. I watched Bottom Top, the matinee show at KLPac. It was awesome. The set, the lights, the actors. It was like, Dato Faridah's comeback. I've never seen her act before, and she is blardy damn good. So is Mark, of course. :)

Bottom Top is a story about a gay boy and his mother, whom is getting remarried, was preparing a guest list for her wedding and decided to ask her son about the 'different' lifestyle and tried to matchmake him with some of the guests from the list. In the process, she discovered that her husband was gay too. Haha, really funny. Sick, dirty gay slapstick jokes combined with Mark and Dato' Faridah's sarcasm, it was blardy damn good.

Apart from that, I watched the first 10 minutes of A Christmas Carol during a rehearsal and I think that everybody should come to KLPac and catch it.

- - Advert - -


More than a century later, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol remains one of the most popular and best-loved tales which has captivated the imagination of generations, children and adults alike. Performed on stage all around the world during Christmastime, it has become an all-time holiday favourite, and will see it's first performance EVER in Malaysia!.

Carrying on this tradition, KLPac is delighted to be presenting its very own production of A Christmas Carol, based on John Mortimer’s adaptation. This version was first staged by the internationaly renowned Royal Shakespeare Company in 1994 to critical acclaim. The KLPac production will be directed by Christopher Ling.

The tale centres on the old and bitter but extremely wealthy Ebenezer Scrooge, played by Darius Taraporvala, who hated the humbug of Christmas. It follows the miserly Scrooge as he is taken on a journey through the past, present and future by three ghosts on Christmas Eve. As Scrooge enters the lives of Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit and the Fezziwigs, he comes to know the meaning of kindness, charity and goodwill, and remembers the true spirit of Christmas.

Besides traditional Christmas carols, this production will also feature original music by Music Director, Nick Choo.

Date & Time 12 December – 28 December at 8.30pm daily
except Sundays & Christmas Day at 3pm
(no performance on Mondays and Christmas Eve)

Venue: Pentas 1, KLPac

That's all for today's episode of 'You know you can't fit into those pants anymore and SO! You shall watch these plays as they really damn good.'

canon

Me and JC after a tiring day. :)

SPM dah habis dah. It's freaking over! LOL. X) No more BM! NO MORE F♥CKING BM FOREVER! Crap. I wonder if the architecture examination is in BM. Hmm. LOL. Oh well.

The last paper that I had was EST! English for Science and Technology. It's a really stupid subject and not many people actually get A for this subject due to the stupidly stupid marking scheme. It. Has. To. Be. Word. For. Word. Which, I think, is very stupid considering this was to help the people in kampung-kampungs and people whose English ain't really that good. So yeah! Wth. x)

We were finally free of SPM at like, 3.15pm 27-11-2008 after EST Paper 1! Wrote a 600 word essay when you only need 200. LOL. x) Alanna, Dhinesh, Yong Jiun, Matthew James, Jie Cong, Justin and I made plans to watch a movie at 1U at 5pm. Dhinesh booked Madagascar tickets for the 7 of us using my phone. I followed Alanna home while the other 5 squeezed into Dhinesh's mom's car. :D Pity pity. They were all scared of Nana's daddy's interrogation. So, when I entered the car, I was like, okay, chill, let's see how bad her father's jokes are and all.

He asked normal questions like, "Where are you going after this?"
So I said, "Oh, uhh, we're going to 1U."
Then after asking few other questions, he asked, "Where are you going after this?"
"Taylors Hartamas or Taylors Subang," I said.
"Oh, I thought you were going to 1U." I was like, LOL WTF. XD

Okay, anyways. We reached Nana's house around 4pm and so we got ready and changed and all. Blah blah blah. And SO! We reached 1U at 4.40pm. On the way up, I saw Li Min! Haha, I met her when I went out with Jojo and Riku earlier this year. xD Gah, hugged her good. :)

We met up with Dhinesh and gang and I couldn't recognize them at all. Haha, don't blame me, blame them! :D They looked so different for some reason. x)

The movie was great! Never had such a great laugh since ever! It's sad that I've never got to watch the first movie. It's be great too, no? Haha, anywaysss, I like Alex/ Alakay, whatever. Don't wanna spoil the movie for those who haven't watched it yet. It's awesome, don't miss it. :)

After the movie, we went to MPH to buy some books! Me, Nana and Dhinesh! I don't know where the rest went. Apparently they were waiting for us outside cause they were uber hungry. I'm sorry, I didn't know. x)

We went straight to Sushi Groove and ordered our foodeh. I had this curry fried rice thingy that doesn't even taste like Japanese Curry. =\ Before that I had Miso soup too! Omg, how I miss the taste of miso soup! :)

Teh miso.

My curry fried rice before I mixed. OMG Those things on top actually MOVES! XD

After mixing it. x)

Haha, that's all I guess. After dinner we went to sooo many shops looking for formal wear for Yong Jiun for prom. (Which I'm not going) =\

So yeah, we left one by one and I saw Cherng! XD He was waiting for his ride home. Funny. It was late, and I thought I wouldn't see him. And there he is! Lol. x)

Went home, designed something and slept at 1 something. xD

Sin Yi, Khim, Chang and I. :)

The next day! I woke up at 10 something, supposed to meet up with Chang Hui, Sin Yi and Khim at Pavillion to watch Twilight! Haha, I went out at 10.30 and arrived at 11.30am. Oh, the jam! It was horrible! Darn KL-ers! But nobody honked, which is a terribly good thing, considering how M'sians drive. x)

It was awesome! The movie! The action! Teh sexy Cullens! (Alice! *squeeeeees*) Edward's abs of which I'm jealous of! Shiny skins in the sun! LOL. K Whatever. It was good overall. Liked the soundtrack. Gonna get from someone or possibly download it. :P My fav's called "Bella's Lullaby" which Edward plays for Bella. :)

Haha, that's all we did actually. After doing some shoe-shopping, that's pretty much it. Khim and I walked to Sungei Wang plaza for the first time for her, second time for me. xD I still can't get over the fact that it's full of people, so cramp and not enough lighting. It's baddd. Reallll bad. Well, I was actually gonna go and register myself with Chamber music to get discount on books and all but yeah, forgot to bring my grade 8 cert and crap. =\

And so! I'm reading Twilight now, stopped at the moment. Cause I went to this Penguin book sale today at Pearson/ Longman warehouse sale. RM10 for 3 books outside the sale and 40% for all books within the store. Haha, it was fun, bought 8 books. 3 dictionaries, which I think will help me in the future. Physics dictionary, Maths dictionary, Chemistry dictionary (lol xD).

The Velvet Rooms. Here's the description at the back.
I am the shadow on the wall...

You think you're safe behind your computer screen, safe to play your games, be who you want to be, act out your fantasies. But a killer can have a chatroom alter-ego, just like you can...

I am the face at the window...

Fat-armed Wife and Call Girl met in The Velvet Rooms, in cyberspace. One is an overweight wife from Massachusetts, the other a tattooed, hard-living hedonist from Hull. They have fallen in love, and now, at last, they will meet in the 'Velvet Dungeon': in the real world.

I am the footstep on the stairs...

But Call Girl can't resist one last cyber fling, one last encounter. Newcomer Thruster is the unwitting victim. And suddenly it's no longer safe behind the screen. The real world has been broken in, and what was a flirtation, sexual joke, turns into murderous reality.


Rawr. xD Thriller desu.

The next book I bought is called The Dreamwalker's Child.

Sam Palmer hates living in the country - he doesn't have any friends and life is dull. Until a bizarre bicycle crash leaves his body in a coma.

Now he has far bigger problems.

Sam wakes in Aurobon, a world similar to his own, and discovers that his accident was part of an elaborate abduction. Dark forces led by the brutal Odoursin need him for a deadly agenda, one that threatens to reach beyond Aurobon and into his own world. Aided by the fearless Skipper - an adrenalin-loving girl pilot - and on the run for insects the size of fighter jets, Sam must (something. Covered by price tag) battle against Odoursin and find a way to reach back home. That's if the terrifying marsh dogs don't kill him first...


Haha, interesting, ain't it? I bought another book, and it's for RM86.95 before discount. GAHHH. New book. So expensive. It's titled, The Canon. I'm still reading it. But it basically explains the basics(lol) of Physics, Chem, Bio and what not. Really interesting, especially the way she mocks stereotypical society. :)

Anyways, gotta study for now. Undang test tomorrow. :)

Buahahaha. SEE WHAT STUDYING DOES TO YOU?! x)

Then again, I wasn't really studying over the weekend. Well, I was. But I wasn't really. But I had Bio on Monday! Uhh. Whatever! XD All I did was cramming.

What is cramming you may ask? Well, to me..
Cramming
The act of forcing lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa, lotsa important facts like Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction in the chlorophyll like, light reaction in grana and dark reaction in stroma and all, ALL in a day. Well, more or less. Plus minus 1 day. x)


Geddit now? Cramming? x)

Buahahaha. Today, was the last day of science subject paper for SPM. (Except EST, it's special)

Physics! Blardy hell, it was really really hard! Well, thank God it's over. I don't really wanna talk about it. Makes me sad, really, considering I only spent like 4 hours plus on Physics. I mean, I don't really like Physics, but I need to be good in it? I don't know.

ANYWAYS. My point is that..

YES! SPM'S OVER!
Unofficially.


Haha, was laughing my butt off when I saw this. I was like, "Omg, this reminds me of Ouran!" Kyoya's laptop was a pineapple instead of an Apple, obviously a parody of the oh-so famous Apple computer-laptops.

Aku a bit susah hati.

I.. Feel that I'm friendless. I don't know why, but I just do. Maybe it's cause I don't have close friends or whatever, but yeah. I just want to be close to someone and be able to pour my heart, soul, eyeballs, kidneys, livers out and he still wouldn't mind cleaning up the blood stains on the carpet. Wouldn't that be nice?

But yeah, it's all wishful thinking. Who would want to become my best friend anyways. And I'm a very picky person. I wish I wasn't though. Maybe it's cause I'm brought in a family where image is everything. My mom's like, super image concious, and it had rubbed off on me. So? I don't know. I don't really mind being fat and all when I was younger, but I guess mixing around with some really thin people made me more self concious about myself, my body, my weight.

I was planning on going to 1U on Thursday with Nana and possibly Matt's gang as well. But yeah, just me and Nana? I'm not really sure if I'll have fun or not. Bleh..

On a happier note, I might see Cherng there. x) And even Shean. :D

Oh well. I nak tidoh. Good luck to all of you bugger taking Chinese tomorrow. :)

nilais

Care for food baby for thought?

There're lotsa things that I wish for.

I wish that I'm photogenic. But does that mean I'll take nice pictures?

I wish that I'm thin. But does that mean I'll be able to feel good about myself?

I wish that I'm good at doing what I'm good at. At least let me know what I'm good at cause I think I'm not good enough at everything I do (except camwhoring).

I wish I wasn't so lonely. Well, it's partly my fault. It could be wholly my fault though. I'm not sure about that and what I can do about it.

I wish I'm smart. Seriously, to those people who thinks I'm smart, thank you, but then again, it contradicts the fact that I think I'm not good enough. My mum always say so. That my results weren't good enough or I just plainly suck at everything.

Maybe I'm expecting too much from myself.
..I'm not even sure about that.

I.. don't know. (tidak tahu - berjahil xD)



I wrote that when I was in bed a couple of nights ago. I wonder how's SPM going for everybody. Me? Nah. All I've been doing these days are Facebook, SMS, TV, Anime, Facebook, SMS, TV, Anime and the usual eat, sleep, shit. This sucks.

I'll be having Add Maths and Moral tomorrow and I'm not worried at all. It seems like, right after ICT and Sejarah last week, I've been set free of all my worries..
..Which is totally untrue.

I'll be having Chemistry Paper 1, 2, and 3 on Thursday and Biology and Physics next week. So, I don't even know why I'm so relaxed. This is sooo pissing off. The date that I'll finally be 'set free' will be on the 27th, then I'm gonna go watch allllllllllllll the movies that I want to watch. I'm sure my mom doesn't mind, right, mommy deary? :D

Okayyyyy. I'm gonna go watch Kurozuka now. And probably finish memorising my darn Moral nilais by noon. x)

octobre de finale

Me and Roger. Khai Ern. :D

My school had a little farewell ceremony for us on Friday and I was kinda sad-ish. It's not an official assembly but it's good enough. Small ceremony to bless us Form Fives for our SPM as well as our future desu.

The pamphlet for the ceremony. May God bless us indeed.

Gah, kinda happy that Friday was such a relaxed day. Form 5s playing basketball in the indoor court. They were finally able to use the indoor court. I think it's the first time someone used the indoor court, so it's a very good thing. :D

So, what did the rest of the Form 5s do? Well, some studied, some played around and others CAMWHORED. You know, obviously I'm one of 'em. Took 254 pictures, deleted hella lot and uploaded 208 on Facebook using the simple uploader at 5 pictures at a time. Tiring chore, it is. The first thing I did when I reached home was falling into a deep sleep on my not-so-clean bed of which I've been sleeping on for many many many hours in a day.

For some very un-obvious reasons, I've been sleeping a lot recently. I blame the heat. But people blame the studying. I don't study. So I can't use that excuse. xD

There're many things that I've accomplished on Friday.

1) I took a picture in the girl's toilet.
Which is not a good thing. XD


2) I took an emo picture with Caroline with her using the camera + sepia.
Poser Carol! xD


3) I took a sad sad picture with Madam Selva
And of course she was just posing and teasing me about the incident with Madam Premila.
I'm so gonna wash this pic for her. :)

4) I was caught lala-posing with Haesel and Jojo.
Of course I had fun doing it. x)


There's a lot more pictures but I've posted them on Facebook.

The public links to view the pictures even if you don't have Facebook.
Form 5 Farewell 1

Form 5 Farewell 2

Form 5 Farewell 3

Form 5 Farewell 4

Buahahaha. And I still haven't studied yet! SPM's next Tuesday! Sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t sh♥t. T.T

And this post marks the end of October!

And I still think this picture is the best picture among all the pictures that I took. :D
