despite advice from many people, 5 in total, asking me not to do it, i started a wordpress blog :P
i have like 2 posts on my wordpress blog.
i still can't figure it out and shall stick with blogger for now :)
the only reason why i was gonna switch was because i can't take this boring theme! and all of blogger's boring themes! and i don't have the brains or the time to sift through a million and 3 different blog skins :P
blogger is so much more simple and makes life easier :) but i think that wordpress' gazillion functions makes it very attractive too. we'll see ;)
on a side note, no, i cannot blog without smileys :) how else will you read my emotions? gosh.
i was told i was hard to read. i hope it's in a good way though.
But how can it possibly be good?

My Attention Span.
... or the lack thereof.
So i just realized today, more like, agreed with the fact that i have the shortest attention span in the whole universe times 212. Haha! Yes. I'm being a drama queen again. So sue me :P omg. green and pink reminds me of watermelons! whee!
Why I Came To This Conclusion:
Heheheeee!
The weather was pretty today :) I wish i could have been outdoors the whole day! But i have to work. Oh well.
Daddy told me a story of how hard he had to work when he was my age. So now i'm motivated to do the same. No more complaining! Woo-Hoo!
I miss my parents :( They're always so wise :) :) :)
"Listen to mommy and daddy! They're right most of the time!"
So i just realized today, more like, agreed with the fact that i have the shortest attention span in the whole universe times 212. Haha! Yes. I'm being a drama queen again. So sue me :P omg. green and pink reminds me of watermelons! whee!
Why I Came To This Conclusion:
- People constantly tell me how bad my attention span is.
- Today, I was supposed to wash the hand-cloth in the restaurant. I was kinda excited because I just learned how to do it yesterday and it means that I get to escape the busy-ness of the restaurant. So, i was happily going to the basement, being proud of myself for being handed this huuuuge responsibility, thinking of what a greeeeaaaat hand-cloth-washer i am going to be. I went to the machine, put in all the cloth, and turned it on. *Sigh of relief* "Good job, Rachel.", I say to myself. 2 hours later, i had to take the cloth out of the machine. On the way back to the machine, i realized that i forgot to put in the detergent. *Doink!*
- Usually when people talk to me, i hear the first 2 words and stare at them as if i'm listening intently. After about 30 seconds, if they're sentence ends with their voice going higher, indicating that it was a question they just asked, i go, "Huh? Whaaaaaat?". Wait. I do that when they say statements too. Haha :P
- In long conversations, i get distracted by the blue sky, clouds in different shapes that tell a story, birds, food, anything around me that's soft, cushy and cuddly. Or the song that is stuck in my head. Or a random incident that happened anytime from 3 minutes to 3 years ago.
- As I type this, I'm in the middle of reading an email on my hotmail account AND in the middle of replying an email on my gmail account.
- I have so many other examples but i'm already distracted and can do this no more.
Heheheeee!

Not Feeling The Colors.
I changed the background to gray :) It's dark gray so there's hardly a difference.
I don't like it. But i don't really like black either.
What should i do?
Use blog skins? But those things confuse me. Eek! ~_~
My internet wasn't working yesterday so i had to sit in my living room for the first time since i moved here. It was fun! We listened to my roommate's old records...

... and spoke japanese! I kid you not. One of my roommates is japanese and his friend from japan came over. Fun times! I got to practice my japanese. So it was good! :)
And for the first time, 80% of us who live in the apartment were home at the same time. Yay!
Yes. I get over-excited over stupid things. Hehehee!
---
I had a fun but tiring day today. But fun. And i definitely over-ate. *shame shame* hehe
My internet is still broken. It was working fine this morning and i was excited. But it's not working anymore. I have to connect the cable directly to my computer. And sit in the living room. I feel like i'm living in a dorm. Haha.
I bought a pink dice to hang on my phone! Me like. It's the pooofy kind. I don't know how to explain it.
Remember how i used to have this blue one in high school that i bring everywheeeere?! Hehehe. I'm such a dork. But i like it. Dice, i mean. Not being a dork :P But maybe that too! I dunno. Pfft.

"Life can be so simple if we all just learn to pray"
Every Little Thing by Hawk Nelson
"If you don't mind would you tell me all your hopes and fears and everything that you believe in. Would you make a difference in the world? I'd love for you to take me into a deeper conversation."
Deeper Conversation by Yuna
"Son, fear is the heart of love."
A Lack of Color by Death Cab For Cutie
"You and me, we couldn't stand being normal. That's why we make a good you and me."
You and Me by Plain White T's

Loud loud party next door. I wish the walls were thicker. But the music makes me feel like I'm in Space :) :) :) So i guess it's not all thaaaat bad :P

Nuts.
Between 5pm to 10pm on March 25th 2009.
5.00 pm - Hmm.. I have time to kill before my edit lab slot at 7pm.
5.01 pm - *Reads book in park* What pretty weather :)
6.15 pm - Oh no! Finish reading book. Now what? I have 1 more hour.
6.17 pm - *Looks around* *Beam of light from heaven shines upon Barnes&Noble* (It's a book store)
6.18 pm - Ruuuuuun to Barnes&Noble.
6.19 pm - Immediately rides the multiple escalators to my favorite floor. The highest one! With film books, literature, philosophy and other fun stuff! ;)
6.21 pm - *Remembers Andre talking about "The Great Divorce" and Soren Kierkegaard*
6.22 pm - Spots random Soren Kierkegaard book. Picks it up. Looks for "The Great Divorce".
6.24 pm - Finds "The Great Divorce" in front of an empty chair. Score!
6.24 pm - Picks up book and turns around to proceed to chair. Chair taken -__-" I left it for one second. That's how vicious these New Yorkers are with book store chairs.
6.25 pm - Looks for a little corner to hide to read books. Finds an isolated isle. Perfect! Time to get comfy. Sits on floor.
6.26 pm - Opens "Works of Love" by Soren Kierkegaard. Read.
6.27 pm - "Wow." Mouth gaping and everything. And that was just the first page.
6.50 pm - After being so into the entire first chapter, I finally look up from the book to take a breather and let the information sink in.
6.51 pm - Notice that people walking by were staring. Looks around. Looks up. Only to discover 2 giant shelves of gay/ lesbian fiction and kama sutra. *Blush Blush*
6.52 pm - Picks up books and bags and moves to a different spot.
7.30 pm - Stomach growling. I want this book. It's $17 bucks! Maybe i should go to Strand (discount book store)
7.40 pm - Arrive at Strand. Runs to philosophy corner. Hehe. My favorite floor in Strand; basement :)
7.50 pm - THEY DON'T HAVE IT!!! :(
7.52 pm - Browsing around Strand, found many books on my Books To Read Wish List for very very cheap. Thinks, "No No No. Don't be greedy. Come back when you actually have money. Or time to read them for that matter."
7.55 pm - Exited Strand a very sad sad Rachel :(
8.05 pm - Back in Barnes&Noble, Fourth Floor, picks up same book. Looks for chair, sit, and read. Mmmhm :)
8.45 pm - Mune calls to go for dinner. Thinks, "If i go for dinner, i can't buy this book."
8.55 pm - Complains to Mune about book being expensive. Mune says it's not. I secretly smile and scheme to get it.
9.15 pm - Eat cheap dinner :)
9.40 pm - Back in Union Square. Barnes&Noble is still open.
9.41 pm - Ruuuuuns in and purchases book.
9.45 pm - Exited Barnes&Noble a very happy Rachel but a very guilty one too :(

March 26th 2009.
12.30 am - Reads book happily! :) "This man is so so so smart."
---
Why did i just write the longest and stupidest account of a book purchase you ask?
Because i feel so guilty about spending money i don't really have. But at the same time, i think this book is awesome ;)
On the first page,
"Indeed, one can be deceived in many ways; one can be deceived in believing what is untrue, but on the other hand, one is also deceived in not believing what is true; one can be deceived by appearances, but one can also be deceived by the superficiality of shrewdness, by the flattering conceit which is absolutely certain that it cannot be deceived."
And the book is filled with sentences like this. It visits both ends of the spectrum on each matter and makes you think.
Are my actions justified yet? :P
Probably not.
It's a good book though ;)
I'm happy and excited!!! :) :) :)
I'm ill. What people have with DVDs and CDs, I have with books.
And before i leave NY, i'm sooo gonna stock up on all these great books that i can't get in Malaysia.
Did i mention that i might be leaving soon? :(

i wish i could be as awesome as this list. ha!
Here are some things I really want to do. But have not. Simple and achievable ones. Not like my crazy ambitions. Heh.
1. Have a really good conversation over an equally good glass/ bottle of wine with a special someone.
Talking about serious stuff and laughing at silly jokes.
With Death Cab For Cutie playing softly in the background and occasionally getting up to dance :)

2. Running around in the rain with friends.
And giggling my head off, sliding around the wet streets with people I love the most :)

3. Cycling under the clear blue sky on a big green field.
One time alone. And another with company ;)
Just to admire the beauty of creation and to inhale fresh air :)

So that's the list.
Hooray! I hope I can strike at least one of them off this year :)
Oh me oh my. I think i'm actually growing up!
And looking at things realistically. *gasp*
---
Because I stalk people on Facebook, i found out that some of my friends are "In A Relationship", to quote the Facebook status. And it made me really excited and happy for them! :)
Some of them are people younger than me and i'm like, "Wahh! They're all grown up!" *smiles to self*
So yeahh, all their happy pictures made my heart smile :) It also made me giggle very loudly when i was using the public computers in NYFA and made heads turn.
But it's all good. Yes, random. So sue me :P
---
Life is not awesome right now. (I've only really said this less than 5 times in my life coz I don't like negativity too much) And my trusting in God is really being tested. Hard.
BUT to quote Dory, sometimes we just gotta, "Just keep swimmin' Just keep swimmin"
*wink*
"You aussies, hug a koala bear for me will ya?!" :P
Sleepy time. Loves.
---
PS. Today was so so so cold, my teeth hurt when i open my mouth. Heheheee!

he's just not that into you.
Yes. I watched it.
I know i know. WHY?!
I was in the mood for a chick flick. We all get that urge every once in a while. Don't deny it! :P
Anyway, it was good. Not so much the movie. Heh. But the message and it's ability to make me squirm and squeak. Hahaha! I reallly did. So many times. And i was like, "No! No! No! Don't do it!" :P
Good times.
My favorite scene in the movie :)
I wish they told us the truth when we were growing up. Then, we wouldn't be so confused.
If only everything was that simple.
We'd be able to run with the wind, chase the stars, and dance under the moonlight like they promised. Mmmhmm :)
But maybe, just maybe, they didn't lie?

My favorite scene in the movie :)Basically the movie starts off talking about everything that the book says. All the signs, all the rules. It kinda annoyed me, all the rules. Partly because it's true and mostly because i wished it wasn't true.
But as the movie goes on, it starts challenging everything the book says. And i was like, "oh yeeeaahh."
It tells you to keep hoping. I like that :)

When it feels like my dreams are so far,
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again."

Too much "deep" thinking. Something i rarely do because it's hard to keep happy that way :P
That's what i think at least ;)
"Turn off the water when you're brushing your teeth please!"

Feel Like Smiling?
:P
Yes. Very jakun about this youtube video uploading extravaganza. Haha!
But seriously, girls, this will definitely make you smile :) And boys, i think it's something you can relate to. Definitely, maybe? ;)
This version has the lyrics in it. Too lazy to look for it and fill up space here. Heh
Aren't you in a good mood now? :) :) :)
Glad i could help! Heh heh! :P
---
Today was not that great a day for me. But the people around me were so happy, it made my heart smile a little too :)
Should definitely smile when the only other option is to cry. Amen. Heh :P
Time will make things better.

My Tummy Calls Out For Thee.
I have been craving ice cream for the past forever. Not just any ice cream. The Gelato kind :)
Yes. I like being pretentious every once in a while. Heh.
Unfortunately, no one wants to go get any with me coz it's cold. Well, cold schmold. You guys just hate mehh! Hehe. I kid I kid.

I stole some ice-cream from my friend's house yesterday. But it's just not the saaaaaame! *Bursts into hysterical tears*

I haven't seen one of these in a very very long time. I've never seen it here in New York. I waaaaaant! :'(
Oh well. Gelato is pretty :) And it tastes even prettier! :) :) :) Is that enough to tempt someone to go on this excursion with me? :P
---
I wanna see stars in the sky! Dang you, pollution! :(
"Stop pollution please! Bring out the stars! Whee!"

7 hours of sleep and 11 oreos later.
Hello! Here I am blogging again!
Haha. Blogging. Isn't that such a funny word?
It's like Snorkeling. Or Boggling. Or Fuhnagaling. But not at all! Hehehe
Ooooh.! There goes my sugar fix for the day.. o.O
*twitch* *twitch*
My friend was talking about intriguing blogs the other day. Uhmm.. I actually read it on hers. Hehe. Yes I'm a dork. So sue me.
And i thought about the few that i read. 3-5 maybe? And i stalk them. Like, i'm always checking for updates (more than twice a day) and then smiling to myself about what they wrote. Haha. I wish i had that kind of wisdom and wit.
Ahhh.. My favorite line.. "Oh how i wish.."
I definitely live my life in my head. I really should stop that. It's like a disease. No. It is not mental illness. *denial*
Haha. And yes. The constantly talking to myself in public needs to stop too :P
What was i saying again?
Ooooh! Time for another oreo! They're soooooo delicious! Yum Yum Yummmmmmm! :) :) :)
"Chew your food before you swallow!"

So Yeahh..
The trip to jersey did not work out. Boo!
But that just gives me more time to apartment hunt and find the perfect one! :)
Happy thoughts! Pink Bananas! Happy thoughts! :)
Ermm.. On a random note.. Well.. Not so random but very rachel..
I want Nasi Lemak.
I think that I need stainless steel teeth so that i can eat more candy.
The more I tell myself not to eat, the more i do.
I'm sorry if i'm ever mean to you. I'm mean to the people i love/like. Got. To. Fix. That.
I wish my hair would smell like some sort of creamy strawberry sweetness or something very Caribbean.
Speaking of something Caribbean, I want to go to a Caribbean island. *cough*Bora Bora*cough*
Sometimes I wish I had a voice in my head narrating my life. Hee!
I want toys and teddy bears! Hmph! I'm just frustrated coz i don't have enough. Don't mind me. (I don't even know why I'm frowning as I type this. Some inner anger is being unleashed. Ha!)
I want ADP friends who are finally in the States to come visit! Haha *hint hint* You KNOW who you are.
Speaking of ADP, I really miss Alexa, Sara & Sarah. Speaking of Sara, I miss Daryll too! Lol.
I never ever used to say "Lol" but i'm starting to because i'm just that easily influenced.
I cannot remember how it was being friends with Lionel Koh but I miss it. Haha.
Random names appearing reminds me of Lee Ken Chung, who, strangely, still reads my blog. Thanks homie! :P
Lee Ken Chung reminds me of Joash Chan who recently got married to May Wong (Mrs Chan now ;)). Congratulations! :)
I can't remember the last time i ate a papaya. Or a honey dew for that matter.
Fruits remind me of Mandarin oranges.
Mandarin oranges reminds me to wish everyone HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!! :) :) :)
See, that wasn't without a purpose! And I meant it all from the bottom of my heart.
Loves. (Reminds me of my family and how much i miss and love them and wish i could spend CNY with them)
"Stop Global Warming!!!"
But that just gives me more time to apartment hunt and find the perfect one! :)
Happy thoughts! Pink Bananas! Happy thoughts! :)
Ermm.. On a random note.. Well.. Not so random but very rachel..
I want Nasi Lemak.
I think that I need stainless steel teeth so that i can eat more candy.
The more I tell myself not to eat, the more i do.
I'm sorry if i'm ever mean to you. I'm mean to the people i love/like. Got. To. Fix. That.
I wish my hair would smell like some sort of creamy strawberry sweetness or something very Caribbean.
Speaking of something Caribbean, I want to go to a Caribbean island. *cough*Bora Bora*cough*
Sometimes I wish I had a voice in my head narrating my life. Hee!
I want toys and teddy bears! Hmph! I'm just frustrated coz i don't have enough. Don't mind me. (I don't even know why I'm frowning as I type this. Some inner anger is being unleashed. Ha!)
I want ADP friends who are finally in the States to come visit! Haha *hint hint* You KNOW who you are.
Speaking of ADP, I really miss Alexa, Sara & Sarah. Speaking of Sara, I miss Daryll too! Lol.
I never ever used to say "Lol" but i'm starting to because i'm just that easily influenced.
I cannot remember how it was being friends with Lionel Koh but I miss it. Haha.
Random names appearing reminds me of Lee Ken Chung, who, strangely, still reads my blog. Thanks homie! :P
Lee Ken Chung reminds me of Joash Chan who recently got married to May Wong (Mrs Chan now ;)). Congratulations! :)

One oF Those Days...
You know, it's kinda late. And when it's late, I start thinking more crazy than usual. AND i tend to spell my words wrongly, something that i don't intend to do now but we'll see.
Anyway, i was thinking about how funny God is. Why is it that you never get the things you want but when it comes to things that you don't want, you get an abundance of it?
But i guess i should always keep in mind that God is preparing an opportunity for me and me for the opportunity :) I heard this line in church and it keeps me going even when i don't want to.
On a happy note, I'm planning a much needed vacation to jersey! I hope it works out! The planning has already come across some road bumps but i think that if it's carefully planned out and if there is a car in jersey ready for our use, it will be soooo awesome! I know i just came back FROM vacation.. But I've had more stress these 3 weeks than I've had for a long long time. So i deserve it :P hmph!
Why jersey you ask? Coz it's cheap, close by, and NOT New York :) And i've been hearing too many good things about it and i have to see if it lives up to said standards. Heh heh.
So again, i hope it works out! *cross fingers and close eyes tight tight*
Tonight was RockBand night again :) Played this one song so many times that my arms and fingers started to hurt. I was playing the guitar and we were on World Tour so we had to complete that level. I sang some of the songs and Stan was like, "I think i have to ask you to leave." And Janet was like, "Rachel, you're unreal." But, to be honest, i thought i rocked! Like a rockstarrrrrr :) yeah yeahhh!! *shakes head in crazy ecstasy* :P
OkThatsItFromMe! :)

Smile!
I have been super stressed since i got back to NY coz i'm back to my world of responsibilities. And me no likey. My vacation didn't feel long enough. Didn't get to spend time with everyone i wanted to. But those that DID spend time with me, I'm really really thankful for you guys and i LOVE you guys so so much. AND you make me smile like an idiot! :) :) :)
It was fun!
Anyway, today was not a very good day. I'm still suffering from jetlag! I didn't sleep for almost 27 hours! Super tired.
But when i stepped out of the door today, it was SNOWING! It totally made the cold bearable :)

After apartment searching, the whole entire day. Going here and there, in the cold. From smelly apartments to neighborhoods where i can get killed in. I would say, it wasn't a successful mission. But the search must go on! :P
I came home, searched online for more apartments, watched a korean drama, and stumbled on the best thing that's happened in the whole entire week! My baby Junsu, playing the piano and singing an old favorite of mine, My Everything :) :) :)

It's Getting Late.
Hey World!
This is another nothing-t0-do post.
My blog is starting to get very boring with less and less pictures coz my computer is running out of space and i'm getting lazier and lazier.
I have to wake up at 5am tomorrow. Totally not excited about it.
Oh well, after tomorrow, I can sleep for as 24 hours straight. So whatevs. Hehe! :P
I've been going through a lot lately. But surprisingly, I am still at peace, happy, and loving life! :)
Only at random moments of the day, I will burst into crazy anxiety. But i can just feel God's hands over my heart, calming me down. As if to say, "I got your back!". I know that He does. And that makes me super happy and peaceful.
I'm not going to lie. It's has been an extremely crazy year. One that I am very grateful for though.
I love adventures and being free! That's all I have been doing all year. With a few stumbles, bruises and war scars, I shall be invading 2009 as a whole new person! Just a little wiser but still as happy and excited about life as ever! :) :) :)
Maybe my troubles are a blessing in disguise after all.. Hmm..
I'm glad that I'm doing film :) There's nothing else in the world I can imagine myself doing. Yay!
Feel like saying... : Mustard Seed! Banana Pumpkin Pie! Woot!

My Dreams of Becoming A Hobo, Let's Strike That.
As many of you know, i've always wanted to become a hobo in NYC. I kid you not. And you know it! :P
Weeeell, I take it back! And let's pray that it never happens to ANYONE!
I was forced to spend a night in the city with no where to go when it was negative 2 degrees!
Let me fill you in with details..
Ok. It started off with me editing at school, knowing that my call time the next day was at 6.45am.. at Grand Central Station because i had to catch a train upstate.
I wanted to leave at 10pm! I promise. But editing got to addicting! I was in the groove~ Hehehe
Soooo.. edit edit edit.. and before i knew it.. it's 2.30AM!!!!
The things that went through my mind:
So ANYWAY.. My friend was in the edit lab as well and we decided to get food. Went outside. Wind blew. Forget it. I'm not going anywhere tonight.
Friend said, "It's too dangerous to not go home now. I'll stay with you till you go to Grand Central!"
Nice friend. Yay! :) :) :)
So we slept on the couch in the couch in the school. The couch was NOT soft.
BUT.. at 5am.. Mike from the edit lab woke us up and was like.. "What are you guys still doing here?! I have to lock up. You have to go."
Something along those lines. I was too sleepy to coomprehend.
So okay.. We walked out into the blistering cold and got to the subway station and friend and i got on the train to go to Grand Central. 1 hr and 45 mins to call time. Great.
So when we got to Grand Central, we decided to sleep on the floor. So we did.
At 5.35am.. a cop woke us up and..
Cop: You guys catching a train?
Us: Yes
Cop: What time?
Us: 7.18am
Then cop walks away. We go back to sleep.
At 5.45 am.. same cop wakes us up..
Cop: People are coming in. You can't sleep here. Get up!
So we woke up. And friend said, "Rachel. I have to go home."
Not wanting to destroy our friendship, I walked friend to train station and said bye and goodnight and thank you and fluffy dreams and all that jazz.
Then, I went back to the center of Grand Central and went back to sleep. Cop walks by a few times, look at the hobo-rific me, shakes head and walks away.
Summary of things that happened next:
Also wanna say that i didn't sleep the night before either. It was about 60 hours of being awake before i went to sleep. Not pleasant. Not pleasant at all.

So that's it! My adventures in New York! Isn't it fun?
Yeah. No more hobo dreams. WooHoo! :)
Love.

Soooo.. edit edit edit.. and before i knew it.. it's 2.30AM!!!!
The things that went through my mind:
- "WHAT??!"
- "I feel like curtsying."
- "Should i go home??" (Mind you, I live 1 hour away from school but with public transportation at that hour, I would have ended up reaching home in 2 hours AND on top of that, I would have to wait for the bus for about an hour in waaay too little clothes for negative 2 degrees windy weather.)
- "I have too little footage."
- "Should i just sleep in the school till 6am?"
- "Need sleep."
- "My film does not make ANY sense! Gahh!"
- "Need food."
- "Mom sent me an email on how to lose fats. I should be worried."
- "Monkeys. Bananas. Cupcakes."
- "Let's do a funny dance!"

Summary of things that happened next:
- Got a phone call from asha saying that she was gonna be late. Got frustrated. Snap snap. "Hurry please!" Was a little rude. SORRY ASHA!! :(
- Got wandering crew members together.
- Mune says something ridiculous. YELL something no one would ever comprehend. People stopped and stared. VERY EXTREMELY SORRY MUNE!! :( :(
- Tim made joke. I was not amused. Sorry Tim.
Also wanna say that i didn't sleep the night before either. It was about 60 hours of being awake before i went to sleep. Not pleasant. Not pleasant at all.

Almost.
It's almost here! It's almost here! It's almost here!
What, you ask?
I can't tell you. But i'm happy as a panda that just got a new bamboo stick because a monkey was playing with it but lost it by getting distracted by a mini cutie sized piggy that was lost because his good looking owner was singing a beautiful song to a beautiful girl and totally forgot about him but just for a milisecond! whee!
I'm THAT happy :) :) :)
You'll find out why in about a month. Ok. Bye!

Rachel Rhymes With Facial!
This is a "nothing-to-do" post.
I'm super tired coz i'm sick. Boo! And.. Fun Fact.. I have to choose between having my whole body ache like mad or cough like a mad monkey. I chose to let my whole body ache. Why? Coz i can't mix the drugs. Gahh!! Was gagging all night from coughing. Stupid.
Still have to go to school to do Producing work for my friend. Oh the joys of filmmaking. Ha!
Ohkay. Enough self-pitying.
I can't wait till my whole class is done shooting!! Ultimate freedom!! Woot Woot!!
All i can think about for the past few months is Mamak food. I kid you not. Roti Telur, Maggi Tom Yam, Susu Panas, Teh Ais & Teh O Ais Limau. That's what i'm gonna order when i get to step foot in a Mamak store. Oh Bliss :) :) :)
Happy thoughts! Happy Thoughts!
Ooh! Time for my dosage of drugs! Oh what fun.
---
Oh yeahh.. Before I sign out,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH TAYYYYYYY!!

I hope you have a really really good one!
I'm so blessed to have known you! Now i can rest assured that my babies have someone to take care of them while i'm wandering on the streets. TeeHee!
I'll see you in Paris? Hahaha
Be good & Take Care!! :) :) :)

Hmm..
OK. First of all, i'm too lazy to upload pictures. So this would be another post without pictures. But fret not, my good peers. I shall try my best to entertain.
Guess what i did today?! I can totally strike out one of the things i want to do before i die.
Jump of a cliff.
Yay!! I jumped off a cliff!! And i'm proud :)
I need to venture to higher cliffs next time. Oooh! The adrenalin. Sweet.
Bermuda kicks ass! Whee! :) :) :)
---
Random things that i would like to say now:
Salad with Pumpkin = Good.
I'm sooo in the mood for pumpkin all october coz it's Halloween! HuHuHu! (And i'm convinced that i should start laughing using different vowels from now on)
And people need to stop saying that i'm weird. Thank you very much.
I found a little army man today!! Waaaay too cute :) :) :)
Tata.

Random things that i would like to say now:
- I don't know what rhymes with "Rachel" and that makes me sad :(
- Sometimes i don't understand how people can be so mean. Are we really born evil and are taught to be good and civil? Then, i wish that everyone is taught well.
- I absolutely LOVE the ocean.
- And i absolutely LOVE coconut chocolates and Twix.
- My skin is smooth from being in the ocean for so long today :)
- Fat = Me
- I need to stop eating but i can't stop! What to do? What to doooooo??
- God is so amazing for creating the earth. Good job, sir! Loves.
- I need to shower soon. I'm dripping sand.
- Should i wish that people act differently or should I act differently? I think that latter makes more sense. But it's soooo hard.
- I think this list is getting emo. Therefore, i shall stop.

Bermuda.
I'm blogging while i'm in Bermuda. Why?
1. I need to push that ugly picture of me down so it wouldn't scare people away when they visit my blog.
2. Everyone is really tired and tomorrow is the first day of Asha's shoot. So we're staying at home and resting today.
3. I need to keep my blog updated? Hehe
OK. Fun Facts about Bermuda:
1. They have the same national flower as Malaysia! It's the Hibiscus. Just in case you didn't know. Hehe.. And they have it in so many different colours too! Beautiful.
2. At this time of the year, it's kinda chilly in Bermuda. Feels like Genting weather.
3. Everything is suuuuuper expensive coz it has to be imported into the country.
4. The ocean water is in so many different shades of blue. It's so so pretty.
5. Random strangers will say "hi" to you on the streets and it's courteous to say "hi" back.
6. ALL the houses are in pastel colors! I love it.
There are actually a lot more but i can't think of anything else right now.
I kicked a giant rock in the ocean today and it started bleeding. The wound looks really cool! Yeeeeah!! TeeHee!
Sometimes i wonder what banana pumpkin pie would taste like.
Loves.
