you're my disease.

Nothing eventful today. Spent most of the time catching up on lost sleep and playing games online.

And guess what!!!

My braces are coming off soon. Like in a week's time. Tuesday morning. Just cause I wanna be braces-less for prom. I mean, I don't to be remembered with my braces on.

No updates for the next couple of days. Going to Macau and Hong Kong with the family tomorrow. Only getting back on Thursay night. Hence why I'm not going for the class trip at Genting. Which I so wanted to!!!! Oh well.....

As compensation I'm going shopping in Hong Kong!!

Friday, November 28, 2008

i can be the one.

I'm so freaking tired now. So excuse me if this post is bad.
But I wanna blog about today before I forget stuff.

So Jia Lik and Amanda stayed over last night as we were going to Bangsar today to go dress shopping. Mum dropped us off at Trixie's and her mum in turn dropped us at Bangsar. Had breakfast at Bodega and walked around Bangsar Village II as most of the boutiques don't open till 12. Didn't really find anything as most were too pricey and we wouldn't be able to buy anything without our mothers.

After Aleena met up with us we walked. A lot. To so many boutiques that I cannot remember them in order or even remember how many we walked into. And I tell you that after walking into so many it was difficult to find a prom worthy dress. In the end everyone got a dress save for Trixie. But she did get a dress at Plaza Damas when she went there with her mum. I swear, I've never tried on so many dresses in my life. I never really expected to buy a dress today seeing as I'm going to Hong Kong so was planning to get a dress there. But the dress that the rest asked me to try was pretty nice and cheap and long. Despite it being long, I didn't look like a midget. I do think I'll have to alter it cause I don't wanna wear really high heels. But I still think I'll go dress hunting in HK just in case I don't wanna wear the one I have.

Trixie has highlights now!!! Red ones. Looks nice on her.

Anyway, after that went with sisters and mum to 1U as Roxy had a 50% off ALL items from 5p.m. till 10p.m. For members only. There were so many people there. And the thing is that the line was really long at the cashier. So guess what? I had to stand there for an hour to pay for the stuff cause sisters had class so mum had to leave to send them. The thing is that I didn't even buy a single thing from there yet I had to waste an hour on my feet for the stuff that the others were getting. The sacrifices I make.....haha.

I was actually going to type a much longer post. But I'm so tired I'm going to sleep now.

lead her up the stairwell.

overoveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroveroverover.

SPM is OVER!!!!!!

Haha. Except for those taking Accounts and Econs that is.

Went to watch Twilight today with Trixie, Jia Lik and Amanda at Platinum Suites at Cineleisure.

The seats were like SO comfy. You could recline it back so much.

And as for Twilight,

I can tell you that it was as expected. That the movie wasn't great seeing as almost no movie made based on a book is good. But it was funny!!

As usual, the four of us were the noisiest there. We laughed at so many things.

Everytime Robert Pattinson looked at the screen his eyes were HUGE. Perfect match for Jia.
Jessica's description of Jasper was funny. 'The one who looks like he's always in pain is Jasper.' Which was quite true. He truly looked constipated throughout the movie. When Edward stepped into the light to show that he 'dazzled', his shirt was open right. And I can say that Robert Pattinson has NO hot body. It was such a disappointment as Edward in the book is supposed o have a really hot body with packs. Jacob's hair was weird too.

Oh, and Carlisle was probably the only one who looked hot enough to be a vampire.

left for you and me.

This morning while I was having breakfast, my grandparents were discussing their medicine. And let me tell you, it was one of the weirdest conversations ever. They were like comparing which medicine was better, whether it's cheaper to get it from a doctor or from the pharmacy.

So this got me thinking, that at some points of our lives, the topics that we talk about change with age. While you may thinking OBVIOUSLY, what a 6 year old and a 16 year old talk about are completely different. What I mean is that there is this invisible line in our head that seperates what we think about at different stages.

For example:

0-7 years: Make lots of noise that make absolutely no sense to anyone. Yell about how interesting the most mundane things are. Basically act like you've lived a rock under your entire life and be fascinated by anything.

7-12 years: Talk about school. And how you hate this or that teacher. Discuss how much you hate this boy/girl who always teases you. Oh, also talk about childish games and computer games.

13-14 years: Eveything that you say must be filled with angst. The world hates you, you hate the world blah blah blah.

15-18 years: Talk about the guy/girl you like. Swoon over hot celebrities you wished you knew. Discuss how unfair you parents are as they never let you out/never let you drink/never let you do anything. Basically a toned down version of how you were from 13-14.

19-25 years: Uni life. Enjoy freedom from parents by talking with friends about where to party and what next to spend money one like holidays and unnecessary gadgets.

26-30 years: Complain about how you'll never find someone to marry. When finally married gush about how married is everything you dreamed.

31-40 years: Talk about how to take care of kids. Compare salary/house/car.

41-49 years: Tell people about how your spouse annoys the hell out of you. How your kids are driving you up the wall. Discuss politics and economics.

49-55 years: Talk about how your job is so stressful and you can't wait for retirement. Discuss how much your kid's uni is costing with other friends.

56-60 years: From now on it's all about how well your kids are doing. Brag about your kids and their wonderful career.

61-80 years: Like my grandparents, discuss health care. Latest pills, vitamins and whatever else there is to discuss about how to live longer.

81 years onwards: The past and nothing but the past.


Just my opinion. Feel free to leave you opinions on the tagbox.

romeo take me.

It feels strange to know that after today I'll never have to know

what oxidation and reduction are
what disulphermonochloride in methy benzene solution is for
what the thyroid gland does
what FSH, oestrogen, LH and progestron are
what the hell Boyle's Law, Charles' Law and Pressure Law are
what is the difference for resistance of LDR in bright and dark conditions


That's the end of the need for science knowledge.
2 years worth of studying for one exam and it finished so fast.

Whole different ball game next year.


Only Literature and EST left!!!!

wishful thinking.

Was talking about cartoons that we used to watch when we were younger.

We=Jia Lik, Amanda, Adelyne, Ian and Me

Some of my favourite ones.
AAAHH!! Real Monsters.


Little Lulu.

Hey! Arnold. (Hey! Football head!! Haha)

Mummies Alive.

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiago?
(Didn't watch this one very much but I loved the computer games!!! My favourite villain when I was younger.)


And then there were the game shows on Nicklelodeon.

Figure it out.

Legends of the hidden temple. (My fav team were the Silver Snakes)
I remeber I was quite scared of the tree part where you put your hand in to look for something and if you're unlucky, a temple guard would be the tree and grab you. And there was the shrine of the silver monkey. Some teams were quite dumb and couldn't put the monkey back together.

Double dare.
Love the sundae part.


And then there were the cartoons I didn't like.

Ren & Stimpy, Catdog(where does their s*** go??), Rocko's modern life, Cow & Chicken(though I did like 'I Am Weasel'), Rugrats.

They just don't make cartoons like they used to.



P.S The teams for Legends of the hidden temple are Red Jaguars, Blue Barracudas, Green Monkeys, Orange Iguanas, Purple Parrots and Silver Snakes.
Just in case you couldn't remember.

with a ribbon on it.

*EDIT*

Summit Entertainment has just given the green light for New Moon!!!
So obviously we'll get Eclipse and Breaking Dawn too.
Twilight made $7 million in midnight sceenings alone in the US.

As all Malaysian Twilighters should know the movie is just a few days away.

27 November 2008.

But yet there's almost no advertisment about it. Have you seen any billboards? No right. But for other movies there seem to be signs/posters talking about it everywhere. It's as if Malaysian theatres don't think Twilight is important or big enough for them to waste money on.

How wrong they are. So many people I know love the book and can't wait for the movie to come out even though we all know it won't be as awesome as the book considering Edward climbs trees and moves around like a monkey in the movie.

There's even a website set up for all Malaysian Twilighters. It's mainly updated with new pictures or news or videos concerning Twilight but it does give you news of any Twilight related things that are happening in Malaysia.

Check it out *HERE*


P.S Tickets are not on sale yet. I think they go on sale tomorrow.

i'm not a princess.

To help all of those going to sit for Bio on Monday.



Parts of the brain. According to Pinky & the Brain!!




Bones in the body. From the Animaniacs.

Haha. I used to love watching these shows.
Too bad the standard of cartoons nowadays are dropping.

Cartoons last time thought us the parts of the brain and about all the bones in the body.

What do cartoons nowadays teach?

A post on all my favourite cartoons from the past sometime after SPM.

mendel.

Some time back J.K.Rowling was attempting to sue this film company from India as they were making a movie title Harvey Putter and the Ridiculous Premise. Well she didn't win the case as it was too late seeing as the film company had been planning to make the movie since 2004 and J.K.Rowling's people knew about it but didn't do anything till this year.

Which is a good thing I suppose. I've just watched the trailer to Harvey Putter and I must say it seems like it's going to be a SUPER funny movie. The movie's basically a spoof of Harry Potter.

The description:

Celebrity bad boy teen wizard Harvey Putter discovers through his headmaster at Snogwarts School of Witchcrap, Professor Mumblemore, that they are all merely fictitious characters in a best-selling childrens book. Harvey and his best friends—poor witch trash kid Rod Cheesely and the brainy Hernia Grunger--are tasked with collecting seven magical books known as Hortexts in order to escape the book world before the final chapter.

However, the mysterious and evil Lord Moldymort also wants to escape and throws a series of obstacles in our heroes path, including such dark creatures as the large-toothed, foul-breathed Dedentures, brief-sporting Underwerewolves, and the nauseating contents of the Lunchbox of Secrets. In the end, they must face off against the greatest terror of all: their creator, author K.J. Bowling! Memorable moments from all seven Potter books are crammed into this 100 minute, highly irreverent satire.


And the video here



Have fun.



Can't wait till Bio paper is over!

up and away.

For those of you who haven't seen.

Here are a couple of pictures of the prom ticket. It's more of an invitation card though.

The front.

Which opens up to reveal prom details.

What the back looks like.

Closer look at the details.


So seeing as I have a ticket. It's quite obvious that Sri KDU is having a senior prom despite what some people might say. Get your tickets quick as I've heard that many people have already bought their tickets. Yeah, and it's RM180 now cause early bird is over.

Expensive I know. But I think it'll all be worth it. Hopefully.

Thursday, November 20, 2008

pull me down.

I read this story a while back and one of the characters made a very interesting point.

“If the first thing you can say about the guy is the fact that he’s ‘just a friend’,” he said, making quotation marks with his fingers, “it means that you think of him as anything but.”

I don't know how far this truth extends but in my opinion it's pretty true.

Now that I think back on what I have said I do think that I tend to say "he's just a friend" whenever someone asks me about someone I like. For those I don't it's usually "Just a guy from school/church/where ever I met him."

But don't start thinking about what I've told you about some guy you asked me about.
I might really have just thought of him as a friend. So don't read too much into this post. It's just that this little bit from the story has a bit of truth in it. In my opinion of course. Not sure how much applies to other girls out there.

And do guys think the same way?

If you've read Jia Lik's blog about the notes from a stalker on the door. This is from the same story.

You can read it here Sharp Edges and Shadows.

they said love was complicated.

Another rant. They're so fun!! I think I'll do them more often.

Okay, so the roads in Tropicana have been resurfaced this past week. And while it's good and everything as smoother roads ensure smoother drives, there's something that they do that just does NOT make sense to me.

You see, the thing is that when the resurface the road they basically just put on another layer of tar to smoothen out the road. So that means each time they resurface the road, their adding another inch. Obviously that means the roads become thicker or rather higher each time they do it. As we all know, there are manholes on the road here in Malaysia that have to be so conveniently located smack in the middle of the road.

When they put tar on the road they can't put tar on top on the manhole right? So you know what that means?? That each time they resurface the road, the manholes become deeper and deeper. Which also means that the bump is REALLY big if you don't avoid driving over the manhole.

What's the point of resurfacing the road then? While it may have lessened the number of port holes, the manholes have just become deeper.

So yeah, why can't they find a way to not make the roads higher? I mean, they could always remove the old tar then only put the new tar on right? But I guess it would be too troublesome and it'd cost more. And we all know that money is far more important than a safe smooth drive in the neighbourhood.


As a side note. Chem paper was strange today.

Wednesday, November 19, 2008

1,1,1 trichloroethane.

Nigahiga not No. 2 anymore??

They're not even there on the most subscribed list. What happened?

If you're clueless to what I'm talking about. It must mean you don't watch youtube.

I'll update tomorrow on my opinion of some of the most subscribed to youtubers. Cause it's late now and I don't wanna fall asleep during the Chem paper.


See!!!

that i can't explain.

Just a little rant that's been sitting in my drafts. Finally finished it this morning.

As all those who've sat or are sitting for SPM should know, Moral is hands down the most pointless subject we've ever been required to study.

All you have to do to get an A is memorise the 26 nilais. Word for word. Any mistake will result in no marks given. Which in turn will not give you an A on your SPM cert. Like seriously. Just memorise the kata kunci and you're good to go. As me and my friends have often joked, Moral does not test whether you bermoral or not. It test your skills in lying and writing about stuff you wouldn't do in real life.

The Ministry of Education has often said that learning Moral will instill good values into the students. How? I only see a subject that exercises the memory and crapping skills of a student. For all you know, the student who scores well for Moral could be the student that doesn't do their work, is spoiled and rude. But people seeing that he/she got an A for Moral in SPM would be "Oh. he/she got an A so that must mean that he/she is actually very nice and polite.". The only part of Moral I can see that actually could hep the students is the part where we do Kerja Amal.

While I'm sure there are many out there who 'fake' their Kerja Amal by posing for pictures, there are also those who really did go out and do some charity. In my class I know that most of them went to orphanages to help kids out, went to Zoo Negara. Me and my friends went to SPCA where we peeled chicken to mix with rice as dog food.

Another thing that bothers me is that Moral is a compulsory subject for non-Muslims. While Agama Islam is compulsory for Muslim students. Meanwhile Bible Knowledge is counted as an exrta subject. Why can't students be given the choice to either take BK instead of Moral? The Christians should be given the choice to take either. And the Hindus and Buddhists and all the other religions should be given their own subject. Taking an extra subject just means extra work so why can't other religious studies be counted as a core subject? Of course all the atheists and free thinkers would still take Moral but those who have a religion should be given the choice to take their own religious study.

Okay, rant's over. Sorry if it's a little long. And I think I've spelled the word 'choice' wrong so many times while typing this post. For some reason my fingers keep spelling it as 'choise'. Weird.

Tuesday, November 18, 2008

you don't define me.

Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, I won't try

Mirror by Barlow Girl

faster than ever before.

Not much to blog about.

Only that Add Maths 2 was harder than expected. And I think I'm going to fail.

And with Moral being over. I'll never have to write in BM ever again!!!

Chem's on Thursday. Then everything else's next week. Pretty well spread out. My subjects.

Also,

if you wanna play a game.


*CLICK HERE*



WARNING: This game is supposed to be majorly scary. Don't play alone in the dark with your speakers turned on full blast(which is how they tell you to play it). And you can only play the game from 6p.m. to 6a.m. So if you wanna play it in the morning/afternoon please adjust your computer's clock. It's given that time limit cause apparently that's the time when it's dark so they want to enhance the playing experience.

even if saving you.

Britney Spears' new album is coming out in 3 weeks. But as with most albums, songs have already been leaked.

And according the Perez Hilton, the only song worth listening to is If You Seek Amy. Which sounds very similar to Trash Me by Jessie Malakouti. Personally I prefer Trash Me but there is something about the lyrics of If You Seek Amy that are special.

Say the title really fast. Done? Say it again. What does it sound like?

ifyouseekamy.

F U * K me. (Most of you should know what missing letter the * represents. If you don't, you are obviously underage or really oblivious.)

Sounds the same?

did you forget?

Have you ever read one of those choose your own path books?

I love them!!

Well, there are interactive books and games.

Now there are interactive Youtube videos!!

You watch the first video then at the end you click the way you want your story to go. And it'll link you to the next video to see what happens next.

Cool right?

about to fall. hard.

I was bored.

So in order to cure my boredom, I created a quiz.

A quiz about ME!!!

Cause I'm so important everyone should know me well. Haha. Just joking.

You can take the quiz if you're bored too.

*CLICK HERE*


I'll be happy to take a quiz about you too if you make one.

Drop a message on my tagbox if you decide to make a quiz.

P.S In the quiz, questions 1-5 are really basic ones bout me. 6-10 are quite easy too if you've talked to me. 11-20 are tough if you don't know me very well. But if you read my blog often, it should be a breeze.

dealing with the perfect crime.

*EDIT*

Wrong trailer. Sorry. That was the old one. New one's up now.



Official trailer of Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince.

It'll be released on the big screen with the Twilight movie. 21 November internationally. The date that HP was originally supposed to be released.

But now we have to wait another 7 months just because they want to make more money from the movie. Can't wait for it though.

Here it is.



But I am the Chosen One. Haha.

live can be so cruel.

I've just found out that uploading videos onto youtube takes FOREVER.

Anyway,

I've uploaded the videos from the 30 Hour Famine. The ones of the different groups doing their group cheer.

*CLICK HERE*

for the link to the videos.

Have fun.

If you don't watch all, remember to at least watch Tribe Jia Lik's one.

Lik lik lik lik lik lik lik lik lik lik!! Haha.

memories so overwrought.

Twilight is taking over the world.

It has captured the hearts of many teenage girls/mums and even guys! And now, Twilight is setting its sights on somebody who is so totally unexpected.

President Barack Obama!!

Haha. Weird right?

*CLICK HERE* for an article about how Obama reads the Twilight series with his daughter.

Wednesday, November 12, 2008

like catching lightning.

And on the second day there was REJOICING!!

No more BM and Sejarah!!

Oh oh oh!

There was a blackout halfway through the Sejarah paper. So at one point, my writing was a bit wobbly seeing as I couldn't see what I was writing.

The Sejarah paper was expected and unexpected at the same time. All spotted topics came out. But those that I thought would come out in essay came out in structure(PBB) and vice versa. Also, there were many questions that just wanted your opinion. I swear, the answer scheme this year must mainly consists of 'Mana-mana jawapan yang munasabah.'. Which is more moral and less sejarah like.

3 down. 8 more to go.

Got maths tomorrow. So free to go online a little while longer.

Tuesday, November 11, 2008

i heart question mark.

So the first day is done.

Still don't feel like it's SPM. Feels just like another trial but easier.

In the blink of an eye everything will be over.



Baby if they asked me
I would say I don't even know ur name
And if they asked me
Does it change?
No, it don't change a thing
Cuz there's something about the way you'll love me
There's just something about the way you'll know me
That I cant explain enough
There's just something about our future love

baby just say yes.

Performance & Awards Night 2008.

For the first time in my secondary school life I got to sit down and watch the entire thing.

In the past years I'd perform so couldn't watch. And the one year I didn't perform(form 3), I was backstage with Min Yan helping out with the costumes.

So yeah, quite nice to be able to sit down and not worry about anything.

Prom the Musical. Performance of the night. It was very good. Despite being a complete rip off from HSM3(storyline wise) and practically every song being from Hairspray.
The cast did very well which is no surprise considering they're a talented bunch.

Wished I could have participated this year. The dances were SO nice!!! Like the contemporary dance during the song 'Tell Him' was so nice and I totally want to learn it. And the finale dance seemed so fun.

One year ago, I was at P&A collecting my PMR star award. So hopefully, one year later, I'll be able to attend P&A to collect my SPM star award?

Okay, must go study now so that I can get SPM star award next year!!

P.S Congrats to everyone who won something!!

Thursday, November 06, 2008

take me back to that time.

I'm so sick of sejarah right now.


Anyway,

Spent the past hour reading.

Reading my old blog posts. From my old blog. The xanga one.

I was such an angry kid back then. And my blogging style was horrible. Quite funny to read about things that happened in form 2.

Reading my friendster testimonials. All the way back to number one. [From SHIEN YIN. Who I haven't see a like a million years!!! So if you see this SAI, you'd better come down soon or I might go down to Singapore to see you.]

So many memories. Some that I still remember vividly. Some I remember and laugh at but cringe when people mention it.

Wednesday, November 05, 2008

it's all understood.

Less than a week.

Yet all I can think about is what's going to happen after SPM.

Prom.

Trips.

People leaving.

College.

Does time really pass so fast?

It doesn't seem so long ago that I was done with being in a Chinese school and moving forward into a private school. Everything was such a big change. Not only did I shift into my new house that year, it was also the year I made a whole new batch of friends.

And in just 2 months time, I'll be at college making another new group friends.

But that doesn't mean I'm going to forget all you Galileo/Mozart people!!!

So you had better not forget me. Even though some of you are going to the other end of the world to freeze in a place where winter gets to -40 or to a place where it always seems to be gloomy and raining or even to mini-Malaysia. You should know the places I'm talking about by the sound of it.

girls=m&m's.

I seriously feel like SPM is eons away. And I think everyone else is too.

Once Trial 2 was over, everyone ust had this great weight lifted off their shoulders. Looks like the weight is not coming back on anytime soon this week. But I bet by Monday a.k.a 'Night before SPM!!', I'll be panicking like crazy about all the things that I should but don't know.

And Taylor's has the subject combination I want. Yay!!!


Taylor's College Hartamas Campus.

I'm quite looking forward to starting college. No more sciences!!!

Economics, Psychology, Eng. Lit and Maths. I wish I didn't have to take maths seeing as it's supposed to be just like Add. Maths.

Oh!!

Prom tickets are now on sale!! Please contact Trixie to book a ticket. From what I've heard, prom is happening and the planning is going well. The entertainment sounds fine so prom should be okay.

alpha beta gamma.

You know what is one question I'm VERY tired of hearing??

"So Weng Yee, got a boyfriend yet?"

I swear, I find that question very annoying.

It's like people think "Oh, Weng Yee's form 5 so it must mean that she either has or wants a boyfriend."

Even my parents constantly ask me something to that extent. And usually after I say that I do not have a boyfriend and no one is after me and I'm not after anyone, they go "Why not!?". Is it really so shocking to hear that I'm perfectly fine being single and not boy crazy? Shouldn't they be happy that I'm not going gaga over a boy?

Prom is also another thing. I think my parents find it strange that I'm going alone. Yes you read it right, I'm going to prom ALONE (if there even is a prom) and I'm perfectly fine with it.

And no, I'm not lesbian if that's what you were wondering (people have asked Weng Yan whether I am). I'm perfectly straight.

Okay, rant over. Back to studying. SPM!!! One week and one day left!!

Saturday, November 01, 2008

inside down low.

Twilight Update!!

Not really a trailer. More like new clips from the movie.

Shown at the Rome Film Festival.

Bella meeting the family. Lullaby. Still don't like the jumping from tree to tree thing.



Enjoy.
