Today its lyke a tragic nightmare. i woke up early dis morning to send si gemok to skool. on da way to skool si gemok saw a dead cat lying at da center of da road. i was mamai at da moment so i was lyke, "naaahh its just a trash" and head to skool without hesitate bcos he's kinda late already.after dropping si gemok, i make my own way back home passing thru da same road and with a glance i cuffly made an emergency break. i was lyke OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! only god knows how many times i repeated it. i act lyke a possessed women. i tink somene honk me from back n hell yeah im blocking their way without notice. its a busy road 19/4A. with shakky hands, panic, shocked, confused i drove home. i stay in the car without making any sound for almost 5 minutes. at da moment i felt lyke my whole body has stopped functioning. i just dont know wut to do, im confused.
With heartless feelings at da moment i start brainstorming, wut to do wut to do.then only i masuk rumah, call my mom, she's in airport still boarding. my first sentence "bobo dah mati" without any intonation. my mom was lyke "haaah??" and then i just lyke spit out everything without a dot. "i nampak td kat 4A die kena langgar kepala die byk darah bdn die xde pape nmpk dr dm keta je xbole parking byk keta kat blkg die da mati i xtau.." my mom asked me to calmed down and bawak bobo blk umah tanam die. i took towel and bring bik amah along as i cant park the car at da busy road. afta we arrived home then only i opened da towel and see its face from near. bobo died in a very tragic way, i can see from its face. matanya terbuka, lidahnya terjulur keluar dan hampir putus digigit diri sendiri, menahan kesakitan mungkin dan lehernya berlumuran darah. tualanya penuh dgn darah begitu juga di tempat kejadian. today itself me lalu dkt jln tu almost more than 10 times. anta sigemok pegi blk skola, pegi blk umah fizul, pegi blk tusyen. and each time lalu, darah yg tertinggal disitu masih jelas kelihatan.sakit hati sangat, tgk kucing yg kita jaga selama ni mati pecah kpala. perasaanya ketika itu its like whoever the reckless driver are, he did not just crasshed a cat, he crushed my brittle heart into pieces at da same time. thanks to you, idiot.
Dear bobo, wherever u're rite now
remember i will always love you.
no matter how many pets will walk in and out in my life after this u will always be my best ones. bcos first love will never forgotten as da first cut is da deepest :(
through dis years,
thanks for lending me ur ears,
thanks fo keeping my secrets,
thanks for dealing wif all my craps,
thanks for teman me stay up studying every nite,
thanks for always been there,
thanks for everything.
u might be just an ordinary cat,
but having u around these past few years
is one of the Big thing in mylife *honest
people always say your fav pet will resembler your true love
if dats true, i hope there is someone out there who resembles you
ILYSM BOBO, RIP

Recycled plastic material
Wanna buy and sell recycled plastics but don't know where and how? HDPE (short for High Density Polyethylene) is a commonly used plastic which can be recycled.
A little details on what HDPE materials are - High Density Poly Ethylene is a form of recyclable plastic commonly used in consumer product manufacturing. In HDPE Film form it is used for snack food packaging, cereal box liners and non carbonated drink bottles.
"HDPE Scrap" is the collected HDPE Material which is then sold to be recycled. HDPE Scrap is recyclable waste consisting of only High Density Polyethylene. It comes all sorts of shapes, forms and colors. The better it is sorted and cleaned, the more it is worth on the recycle market.

Redang Island, Terengganu
I didn't join my friends to Redang Island the other day but look what i've got!
Long
Urgh am feeling freakishly tired. X(
Jocelyn asked me to teman her to the movies so we watched Jack Neo's Ah Long Pte Ltd. It was hilarious in a cheap Singaporean way. Singaporean shows are so typical and crude. And am getting really sick of seeing that Lao Zha Bor woman.

Random! #3
Ooof. Just got back from Monash. Went to the library in search of books for my Media Studies assignment. After pestering Dr Yeoh for a while, i realized that i had borrowed completely irrelevant books. -_-" Also paid Dr Mootee a visit to collect a copy of my tutorial which i'd lost! -_-"
***
A whole pile of pics i've been keeping in my com. Been really lazy to post them. :D
Had this spur-of-the-moment late night gathering a few weeks back at SS2's KTZ with JC, Tecky, Liang and Brown Bear. KTZ is this honkie shop selling desserts and little savoury dishes. It was a freakin' busy saturday night and all the desserts had sold out save the "loh".
Tecky's red bean "loh". Now "loh"! What exactly do you call it in English? Stirring...? Spooning (obscene!)? Spooning and letting spooned contents fall back out? Wtf. Whatever.
My kiwi "loh". I don't really like these shaved ice stuff as there's nothing really special about them. The kiwi slice on top was to cover up the hole i had already dug up. LoL. The pic above, the red bean one, was also partially dug up but Tecky was a neat eater so there was a presentable side of which i could take a picture.
JC had the honeydew one. This honeydew picture was taken in June last year when i first tried the "loh".
So far i think the mango one tastes the best. I remember Ennie saying that the strawberry one was good but i have yet to try it.
I also ordered this radish cake which was mighty delicious and i kept chopsticking it into my mouth. No picture here.
***
Mum bought a new wardrobe for Dad so she shifted the old one into my room. Now i have 2 wardrobes which is pretty convenient as i get to hang my clothes up instead of just haphazardly chucking them into the cupboard all creased and tangled up.
My t-shirts. And my shirts. Now u can see most of my clothing are dark and gloomy. :D With a few exceptions here and there.
***
Pods! On my birthday Nico bin Autofelasio gave me Pods bought from Australia.
With Snickers cream. Hmm. Apparently there is another version containing Mars bar cream. Sighs. I still miss Snickers almond!! Dammit. Anyway...
What i don't get is this line, "ingeniously crunchy". Why is it ingenious? It's only a wafer biscuit shell... lidat oso ingenious ah? -_-" Still... it was crunchy and i happily crunched up all 40 of them. ;)
***
Sis got me this funky orby lamp for my birthday. Initially i asked for a bedside table lamp since i like to read b4 sleeping but she said the bedside table lamps were all fluorescent and fugly, so she chose this instead. Mum was disapproving coz its design collects lots of dust. Oh well. Funky funky light. :D

currently
currently im waiting fo my upu result which will be released somewhere in june. my first choice is law, followed by event, hotel and mass-comm. xtaula yg mane satu sangkut. tawakal hu allallah sahaja la
roughly fyi i took stpm last year due to my tak berapa bagus spm result and my kesilapan mengisi borang upu 2 years ago. so i completed stpm fo 1 n a half years. got my result lyke 2 weeks ago. honestly not very happy with the result because i work so hard and having dat kind of result in return is quite dissapointing la tp apapun i shud not take things for granted so syukur alhamdulillah. me xkn amik pusing ape yg org ckp lg, fo me im da one who seat fo the test so saya yg paling jelas how hard it is. honestly stpm sgt susah,no joke ok! ape yg we baca dlm teks book, sume x kuar. soalan sume pelik. some of the esei questions was lyke pelancongan kesihatan, sastera moden, biotek, konsep jihad and da hardest part is we have to wrote the essays not less than 800 words. can u imagine how am i supposed to write about kebaikan nuklear? i tink they shudnt named it as STPM it supposed to be TOOTBE instead which stands for think out of the box exam. so sape yg nk amik stp ni lebey baik pk dua ribu juta tiga ratus poin enam lapan kali. but for me i've neva regret of taking stp, my result mungkin xdela 5A mcm org lain tp can do la utk msk U. jadik ga pernah ada rasa menyesal dalam mengambil langkah ini. 2 yrs ago i can simply entering any college dat i lyke but i took stp instead bcos using parents money to succed is soooo not me.

Leak
Sonnuvabitch. I was snoozing just now and i heard this tremendous splashing sound outside my room. I sprang out and saw water cascading/spraying/splashing/pouring/gushing down in large streams and it didn't seem to be stopping.
So i stood there reeling for quite a moment and began yelling about the leak. Damn. What a freakin' mess. The water seeped into sis's room, my room, mum's room... practically everywhere. Took hours to clean up.
The water also splashed into the fax machine, dad's old computer, scanner and printer (which leaked black ink all over). It also soaked up the towel basket, mum's fliers/papers lying on the floor, sis's paintings under her bed, our carpet (which will be a freakin' pain in the ass to clean up, with all the black ink *update* carpet stinks now! has got this musty smell. does anyone know any carpet-cleaning services?).
Anyway i think all the electrical stuff mentioned above cannot be used anymore. Dad's computer is pretty much a piece of junk as it's Pentium 3, really laggy, and i've always wanted to find an excuse to get rid of it. The fax machine and printer, on the other hand, are really unfortunate. X( Thank goodness it didn't kena anything else, like my computer, or the modem. Or the bookshelves. That would be nightmarish.
While i was stoning there, i saw my maid Sun rushing outside holding a ladder and a few moments later the leak ceased. Apparently the rain drain (whatever u call them) on the roof had been clogged up by plastic bags, wtf. *to answer wing's question* Neighbour of mine was doing some construction work for his roof. Dad thinks it was some teh-o-ais-limau wrapper brought upstairs by the workers. Sounds somewhat accusatory and presumptuous, so i'm not really sure. Perhaps some empty rubbish bag got blown up there by the wind.
In any case, the fucking roof drainage system is very very poorly done. I have been bugging freakin' dad to fix it for freakin' ages and he kept delaying. See what happens, la. Hmph. Y'see, my house used to have this unsheltered open space in the middle (what d'you call it? sky well or something? sky well is a direct translation from mandarin) where people grow plants. My parents thought it was a waste of space so they renovated and covered up the space. I think the idiot contractor didn't do a good job and now we're suffering.
The last time we had such a colossal flood was around... 10 years ago? Or more. I just knew i couldn't remember it coz i was too young. It was worse, according to sis. All of us went out and only Dad was home and he grabbed one of those sofa seats and fell asleep on the carpet. When he woke up the water had already flooded around him 0_0!!
***
I am really annoyed la. I think i have to take English lessons again coz my tenses are horrendous. I never liked grammar. I was trying to edit NSC's uni application self-praise essay the other day and suddenly i realized that all my tenses sounded terribly wrong. Damn. I should have paid more attention during high school instead of stocking up on all those rubbish flowery big words that are now useless.
So forgive me for rotten tenses, and correct me if you can.

The fax machine and printer, on the other hand, are really unfortunate. X( Thank goodness it didn't kena anything else, like my computer, or the modem. Or the bookshelves. That would be nightmarish.
While i was stoning there, i saw my maid Sun rushing outside holding a ladder and a few moments later the leak ceased. Apparently the rain drain (whatever u call them) on the roof had been clogged up by plastic bags, wtf. *to answer wing's question* Neighbour of mine was doing some construction work for his roof. Dad thinks it was some teh-o-ais-limau wrapper brought upstairs by the workers. Sounds somewhat accusatory and presumptuous, so i'm not really sure. Perhaps some empty rubbish bag got blown up there by the wind.
In any case, the fucking roof drainage system is very very poorly done. I have been bugging freakin' dad to fix it for freakin' ages and he kept delaying. See what happens, la. Hmph. Y'see, my house used to have this unsheltered open space in the middle (what d'you call it? sky well or something? sky well is a direct translation from mandarin) where people grow plants. My parents thought it was a waste of space so they renovated and covered up the space. I think the idiot contractor didn't do a good job and now we're suffering.
The last time we had such a colossal flood was around... 10 years ago? Or more. I just knew i couldn't remember it coz i was too young. It was worse, according to sis. All of us went out and only Dad was home and he grabbed one of those sofa seats and fell asleep on the carpet. When he woke up the water had already flooded around him 0_0!!

I am really annoyed la. I think i have to take English lessons again coz my tenses are horrendous. I never liked grammar. I was trying to edit NSC's uni application self-praise essay the other day and suddenly i realized that all my tenses sounded terribly wrong. Damn. I should have paid more attention during high school instead of stocking up on all those rubbish flowery big words that are now useless.
So forgive me for rotten tenses, and correct me if you can.

What matters most...
Please feel with your heart. See with your conscience. Strive to live by your values.
When there's no right or wrong, please do not doubt my integrity. Do not question my actions...
You'll understand, I promise.

Punch
Watched Punch-Drunk Love in film studies on Monday.
It turned out to be a pretty entertaining movie. Adam Sandler's performance was unexpectedly brilliant. He plays this lonely, lonely guy Barry whose life is punctuated with fits of rage (Barry once destroyed a washroom, tearing off the cubicle doors and wrenching out the liquid soap dispensers). His conversation with the phone-sex chick was freakin' hilarious.
The only drawback in this movie was its fucking sound editing. They incorporated loads and loads of ridiculous noise within the movie. And i watched it on a day when i only had 30 mins of sleep the night before so i was tremendously irritated, so much so that i was gripping the little table of the Plenary Theatre seat, wanting to whack someone. Just watch it and u know what i mean. Fucking annoying.
Annoying noise aside, Punch-Drunk Love is worth watching. Just watch it on mute, perhaps? Subtitles!

Morning!
Whoo-hoo! It's 7:12 a.m. right now and am feeling great. :D Just woke up, so i think i can squeeze in a little post here.
Both my media studies and film studies tutorials have been canceled today (2 days of classes a week, ain't that D-vine?), but i'm popping over to hand in my assignment and to play basketball with Brown Bear's mechanical ppl. XD
***
About the assignment, it was supposed to be due on Monday but apparently during the previous lecture, right after he said "class is over" and i rushed off, he said "oh wait wait. the assignment will be postponed to wednesday". I didn't hear. I had it done by Monday.
But never-dee-mind, coz i managed to discover some mistakes to my answers. Now i have decided to take back whatever rubbish i said about Mr Mootee as he is a fantastic lecturer who dishes out assignment answers like free food for the poor.
We had this question about housing. If a hurricane came and destroyed lots of houses, what happens? It's kinda confusing, if u ask me. Does demand rise, coz ppl's houses are all destroyed and once they claim insurance they can afford a new roof over their heads? Or does supply fall, coz houses are, well, destroyed. Do you illustrate either, or both? Long run, short run?
Initially i tried to ask my tutor, Val, in a cunning circuitous manner but he refused to tell me the answer. So fine lor. When i asked Prof Mootee he was like "supply shifts la. neh, like the hurricane?" and i was majorly taken aback for such a direct answer. So the answer was pretty simple. Supply falls. And i guess i was just over-analysing the question...

0_0!
Uwargh! I can't sleep. It's 4.40 and i have a freakin' 8-6 schedule tomorrow. Am so dead. Dead dead dead. Gotta bring lots and lots of coffee.
Hubert from Consumer Behaviour asked us to stay back to fix the ridiculous tutorial activity due Tuesday, which means i can't escape at 5 p.m. as usual. Bah! My prediction: stuck in traffic for at least an hour. Let's see whether am right or not.
Am suddenly craving for these extremely thick and rich soups, such as Friday's mushroom soup, or Chili's broccoli cheese. Hmm. I won't say no to the tostada chips with the fantastic beef queso, either. Oh-lala. God am feeling hungry. And this is happening at 4.47 a.m. Horrendous.
I've been food-blog hopping and i've seen really impressive reviews of KL's Cafe Cafe. Sis's been there and raved about everything. Hmm! Hmm! Hmm!
Off to sleep now~

Fun
Sis mailed me some of these fantastic advertisements.
On buses:
Jaws!
0_0! I c u! :D
Camera..
Ah now we know where to find vertical guillotines.
What appears to be a disc-jammer. Looks kinda like a pinkish-purple stove too.
Smint mints, for refreshingly minty kisses? :D
Dog food advert. Hehe.
and.. THIS
is the best.
Sheer brilliance! Now why buses in Malaysia are such plain bores?
On paper/plastic bags:
What's in that bag? XD
Skipping ropes.
Hangman's noose.
Reach out to children with autism. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time should be put inside.
Panadol! Relieves... head-deforming headaches.
On paper cups:
Nothing much to say about this la. LoL!
Starbucks Coffee teethy cups. Is that little blue packet down there a mint?
People who came up with these ideas are geniuses. Just shows that creativity has no boundaries! =)
