MERDEKA

the annual HAPPY MERDEKA POST!

i still remember how to sing Keranamu Malaysia. School Choir has traumatized my mind! haha.

I WON AN iPod SHUFFLE!!!!!!Karen Marie Rocks!:) check out the link on my previous post. maybe it will change adey la..but check out 30/8/2005 on the calender..:)

MERDEKA CELEBRATION...
was supposed to meet sidney for pasar malam at Klang, but too far....
was supposed to meet Row, Mel and all for dinner at Bangsar, mum did not let me...

ended up going to Jusco and buying 2 pairs of slippers for college, and Pantene leave on moisturiser. and also MAgnum&Conetto Mini...so cute...shall indulge in it tmr!:)

my mum and i played dress up cos she bought a new baju kurung... she made me wear all her baju kurung and i fit in them well. *i knw, i've grown big..haha* and i look nice..i shall wear some on days when amelia wears them to college!:) then later my mum and i tried to go and look at the fireworks at KLCC. but couldn't see..it was too low..we waited like dumbo with few other neighbours. hehe..

then went to watch tv...to see if its done, then they were singing Keranamu Malaysia adey...so i guess we missed the fireworks. haha.
and SHOCKINGLY, i saw Point and Yogi B there, on stage singing!!!1 my bro and i were like..WHATTT???? "did u see the fat indian dude with the skinny chinese dude on tv?" " YESS!!!" ahaha. yay!!! Poetic Ammo's back on track! i think...LEA!!! Ammo's back!:) do you still visit the forum? whats the site again?

i've been tagged!

i've been tagged by Denise to do this post! so, here goes!

1)Total number of books you own
hhhhmmmm..lets see, a few? is sharing with my mum considered mine? cos then i would have loads and loads of books. most of them read by my mum, and im reaching there...trying to read everything!

2)The last books you bought


Bridget Jones Diary, Talking to Edison, Just Friends, Something stupid, Vows, A Family man, The women next door, my Faourite Goodbye.haha. from the jumble sale..i've only read 2 out of the books i bought in the jumble sale.... oh yes, i have moods when it comes to reading. haha. and also, i've been busy with College and stuff..so ya, been reading "introduction to Psychology " too! haha.

3)The last book you read
Talking to Edison by Jenny Colgan. Currently reading before sleep-Bridget Jones's Diary. super fun book!

4)Five books that mean a lot to me
this is hard. cos i don't really know or thought about this. okay. i'll try. five books that i remmeber i've read it and liked it?

1. Helen Fielding's Bridget jones's Diary - i really like the way she writes! super funny. and i like her issues with herself. haha.
2. Danielle Steel's The Stars Shine Down - it is about this young girl who made it as a entrepreneur i real estate in NY. like the donald la. nice story. she's like a girl in POWER! thats why i like the story and can remember the story.
3. Sidney Sheldon's Nothing Lasts Forever - Doctor stories. made me had a bit interest to become a Doctor. haha. luckily it wasn't long. and im glad i never took medicine!:) haha. i did want to take medicine.
4. Danielle Steel's books? - okayy..so at one point of my life i was a sucker for Danielle Steel's love stories and read many of her books. those stories were mostly romance la.
5. I can't remember man...haha. i'm going to get The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole (Sue Townsend) from Melody. and i hope that would be in the list!:) cos i heard it is fab!

Finally, i conclude that i don't read or invest in many books. Sidney gave me tons of old story books to read, and one of it is the The Diary of Anne Frank which i am looking foward to read!:)

other than that, i think, i do more photoshop than read this year. i read a lot of Sweet Valley's (Sweet Valley Junior High, Sweet Valley High, Sweet Valley University!) in high school. haha. and donated all my books to Shermaine,Bryna and the kids at my aunt's place. haha. i remmeber reading Stephanie (from the series Full House) , Love Stories series, Sabrina the Teenage witch, Malay stories like Tujuh Penyiasat, Lima Sekawan, and thats all i can think of. haha, owh and also the Peter and Jane Series! hehehehehheheheheh! i thin Everyone reads that book when they were in kindie!

as you can see, i think i read more when i was younger than now! haha. mostly because my parents stop buying me books from book stores like MPH and Times! and the only time we buy book is when my mum and i visit Pay Less Books, so i can't read the more commercial and new ones. i would have to rely on friends to borrow from. thats about it.

5)Tag five people and have them fill this out on their blogs
Sidney - haha, you read alot alot right? all our trips to Borders and all...you better do this post!:P
Oliver - i bet he reads alot? right?
Victoria - Vic! i dunno if she reads my blog or not..
Phan Shean - he hardly goes online! wonder if he reads this..then maybe he will do! ahha..
Roberta - or dominic? haha. anyone la. if you're willing to do.

no wonder i dun have many close friends!hehe.(not talking about you Sidney, u're a great friend..and i hope i am too!:P)

And birds go flying at the speed of sound

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?
Where To, where do I go?
If you never try, then you'll never know.
How long do I have to climb,
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

Look up, I look up at night,
Planets are moving at the speed of light.
Climb up, up in the trees,
every chance that you get,
is a chance you seize.
How long am I gonna stand,
with my head stuck under the sand?
I?ll start before I can stop,
before I see things the right way up.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand?

Ideas that you'll never find,
All the inventors could never design.
The buildings that you put up,
Japan and China all lit up.
The sign that I couldn't read,
or a light that I couldn't see,
some things you have to believe,
but others are puzzles, puzzling me.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah when you see it then you'll understand?

All those signs, I knew what they meant.
Some things you can invent.
Some get made, and some get sent,
Ooh?
Birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah, when you see it then you'll understand?

Coldplay rocks!:) i like this song.

i feel like i need to blog a lot cos its been a while since i've blogged.(its obvious, look at the amount of pictures on this page itself. sheeesh. i should stop posting pictures and link people to multiply or something...see, another thing why i like Livejournal better is because of LJ-CUT! check out my livejournal to see whats a LJ-CUT!) once again, i urge all of you to get a lj! hehe.

anywayz, im super bored. since i finished 10 episodes of the O.C last night. now im waiting for Riki to give me the rest. which reminds me, i need to buy empty DVD-R to pass it to him. should i buy the rewritable one or the normal one? hmmm..
My dog has been giving us loads of problems. like he's drinking the water from the fish tank's filter and biting off his leech. sheessshh..naughty dog.
i love my winamp now that we can go streaming and watch music videos or listen to songs from people who you wanted to d/l for a very long time but cannot find any of it. or my favourite, the jazz radio! haha. sidney got me Jason Mraz and Gavin Degraw CD. its kinda nice. not all that. but i love the song chariot!:)

oh ya, HELP's having a UN CLUB. maybe i should join. i mean, it could help alot. and besides i'll get a lot of exposure. and maybe i can do my training there~!hehe :) that would mean i have to go for meeting on friday at 12-2p.m. which means my fridays will be booked everyweek. and i have to commit to something. maybe i won't join student council next sem. i just don't see a chemistry with the people there. maybe i shouldn't join The American Flyer also. what kind of edboard is that man. we don't even meet with other writers and stuff. all communicate through email. i know, i mean its the 21st century and email is a great tool to communicate, but seriously, i only know Aaron, the head of layout and Hui Ling, who happens to be in Student Council and she's in layout too. i don't even know how my editor looks like!haih.but i love photoshop and by joining edboard i can expand my knowledge. right?

anywhoooooo... (imlisteningtochariotagain!) i really love all my friends who blog. seriously. at least i get to know whats going on in their lives and won't feel distant from them when i meet them in the streets! really, like Karen Lee, i know what she's been up to and i can relate to her when she comes back, cos i knw her stories and life events for the past one year, and when she comes back, at least i got something to talk about. but like if Gracie&Wingsun comes back, i'll be all distant and blur, cos obviously they'll change, and i won't know anything about them. same goes to my school mates, like Lea, she blogs, and thank God for that! cos even if i don't see her all the time anymore or even if i dun chat with her online most of the time, i still know she's going to Australia, and how her dog's doing and stuff. but then again, maybe i should email them and ask them about how they are doing right? :) oh well!

my new term's going to start soon, and i got my timetable yesterday from ADP Dept. from what i saw yesterday night at 3am. i think i will be taking, English102, Stats (i need to ask them if i need to take stats again, cos i took it in CIMP) Intro to Mass Comm, and something else. i dunno what. maybe a psych subject like human personality or counselling psychlogy. cos we cannot take drama.(prerequisite: EN102) haih. another dilemma.. my results are coming out on August 12th! YIKES! i need to prepare for the worst! i hope i don't fail. of get a C or B.

Borange, Oliver's band is making it big!:) they are in the M&M's battle of the bands. and yes, i'm promoting for them! hehe. we must always help promote! :) go vote for them! and watch them this Friday at sunway Pyramid. at 5pm i think. im not sure if i can go, my cousin's coming over to do photoshop. haih.

anyways, another thing that makes me *puke* is people who do not reply their comments. like come on! whats the comment function for if you don't reply people who comment on it. at least acknowledge it la. its not like im saying i always reply comments, but i do mostly all the time, unless Haloscan is giving me problems! which reminds me, i need to back up all my blog entries. hehe. i shall do that next week, if i feel like doing. putting it all in WORDS, saving it and printing it and keeping it in my lil shoe box.

looks like nobody is interested in my notebooks. i shall give them away. giving one to Rowena for her birthday. i'll prob tell azat im quiting the notebook business and ask him to buy his own cheaper notebook. i shall make a few for myself, to make me happy. hehe.

im going off to play with TimTam and watch a DVD. hehe. oh yes, i need to exercise! i promised Sidney! haha. i also need to explain to my mum the importance of the Fit'n'Fold Strider from Smart shop! haha. chiows!:)
