Extreme makeover.
am I planning to do anything? Yes. When? Yet to be arranged. Currently my table calendar is filled with either 'SK' or 'Lit' or 'Diss'..
and yet yesterday was filled with one of the two things i did best...
BUANG MASA...
and the other one is buang duit...which i cant afford anymore..
--------------------------------------------------------
believe it or not...its a super long weekend for me! i had no class on Friday. then came Saturday and Sunday. today, Monday..is bank holiday and this week is reading week in college. so no class tomorrow. and Wednesday 3 hours. Thursday no class. then Friday 2 hours. wow...patut la semua org jeles ngan kitaorg. kelas 5jam je seminggu..huhu..
and its gonna be a quiet week for me and my YM..i wont be spending hours and hours chatting cos A) im not supposed to.. and B) most of my usual chat buddies ada exam serentak this week. be it UK, M'sia, NZ, and Ausie. so its only gonna be more or less this everyday/nite...
X (can be me or one of them): hey..wats up? buat apa tuh?
Y: huh? nothing much.. study/makan/buang masa/etc
X: how are u today? sihat?
Y: sihat jek...Alhamdullilah. how bout u? hows life?
X: huhu...Alhamdullilah. sihat jek. but nothing much too..got a few things lined up..huhu exam/folio/reading [for me] or exam/report/assignment [for my buddies]
Y: biasa la...wat to do..hehe..
X: yeah..wat to do eh..:P got to work hard!
Y: soon it will be over and gone...:) cant wait.
X: yeah..cant wait too.. :P eh ok la..u got exam weh..
Y: huh..i dont need reminder thank you very much! :P
X: study study!! hehe..aku pun nak exam weh..reminding myself as well..uhuk
Y: hehe...yeah.. ko pun..study!! study!! hehe..:))
X: no worries. you r not alone. friends all over the world pun tgh exam.
Y: yup yup...everyone busy now. huhu....:(
X: hehe..hey..happy studying!! tak mau stress2 arr...senyum2 slalu.. :D
Y: yeah...u too happy studying!! :P sapa yg slalu stress ni??hehe..
X: hehe..mana ada :P..k..later babe/dude..take care..[or] nite2...sweet dreams..:)
Y: yeah u too dearie..:)
[of course it does not apply to all chat buddies. this is the best i can come up with a little bit of everyone thrown in. =)]
short but sweet. in times like this. i cherish these little things. someone else in this world, in a different time zone [bukan kat london je arr...plis note ok!! hehe]experiencing the same thing.
loads of catching up needs to be done after the exam/assignments period. gossip gossip. hot latest news need to be circulate around the globe.hehe..
today 29th of May...[looking at my table calendar] 'Diss'
ok...i got work to do.
lalalala.....i really think you like meeee.... eeee....
[still singing that comel song...sambil menyusun artikel2 yg perlu dibaca..T_T]

its a real word.
HICK
its a real word.
it has a meaning so its a real word.
huh?
its not like 'uhuk'... or 'ehek' [credit it to the real owner..hehe].. those two words do not have a meaning. its called fillers in linguistic terms. well i think so. like 'hmm', 'er..' etc etc.
its not like 'kewl' [a variation of 'cool'] which does not have a meaning unless u sound it out [which refer back to the word 'cool'].
its not abbreviation like 'gtg', 'brb' or 'asap' which actually means something...if u know wat it means. if not, u will lie awake at nite wondering wat it means.
HICK is supposed to be meaningless for my usage..
but it does have a meaning..
and its a Noun..
so adding an 'S' to it still makes it a real word.. *sigh*.
there goes my lame attempt to make HICKS exclusively mine. *flush*.
because HICK does have a meaning.
according to Dictionary.com..
it means..
A person regarded as gullible or provincial.
wat a wrong choice of word! huhu T_T
--------------------------------------------------------
why suddenly i have all this things and ideas to blog?
easy!
because i have been reading.. =P
in order to write, you have to read!
im so proud of myself. *pat on the shoulder*
HICKS!!!

Too much sugar!
Ok. I know. I know. This is like the 2nd song I post this week. But its definitely worth it. Trust me on this one. If u like the previous song, try this one. Its definitely sweet. Sweetest ever. Too much sugar I think. hehe.. I stay up all nite listening to this song over and over again. [I have the habit of listening to ONE song over and over again for days and days..till it gets to everyone's nerve really...hehe!]. Thanks Sal for introducing this song to me...now im hooked! =P Please,please, listen to this song..please wait for it to load...its sooo worth it...comel i tell u...
Bright Eyes
This is the first day of my life
Yours is the first face that I saw
Remember the time you drove all night
So if you wanna be with me
Besides maybe this time it's different
its just too sweet...with some life lessons thrown into... =)
lalalala.....i really think you like meeeeeeee....eeeeeeee.....
[thats me singing at the top of my voice.. erk...rosak lagu..huhu...T_T]
what are u doing?
It is a favorite belief of mine that no student ever
attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him; it is the
amount and excellence of what is over and above the required, that determines
the greatness of ultimate distinction.

My Official Summer Song
Ok this is my official Summer 2006 song. Well, I wont be listening to this song forever, of course along with Who Knew-pink, The First Day of My Life- Bright Eyes and any other songs that I think suit my Summer mood. hmm u can expect some travelling this summer, hopefully hopefully, but most of the time its gonna be lonely summer..huhu.. so enjoy the song..and sing along cos here is the lyrics...
Put Your Records On
CORINNE BAILEY RAE
Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don't need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it's alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don't you hesitate.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Blue as the sky, sombre and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the road side,
(just relax, just relax)
Don't you let those other boys fool you,
Gotta love that afro hairdo.
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don't you think it's strange?
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer.
Do what you want to.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Oh, you're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
i have let my self down.again.
Huh! Marahnyer saya!!!! T_T
the last post wasn't even brilliant. It was written with so much effort [it took 4 hours to write it, yet zero satisfaction] but lacking of feelings. I ought to learn how to transfer my feelings into words like that.
Empty. Yes. That describes the last post. Thus, the reason i'm writing this post.
Broken. Anger. Shattered. Disappointed. Rage. That's the feelings of this post. This one. Not the last one.
Ahh now I have release all that feelings. I shall sleep soundly tonight! Huhu...Before that I have to attend to my schoolwork.
And one more thing...
bila leh pegi riding nih?? Hujan... T_T
The lion in me
Wizard of oz. I have no idea where to start or how. I’m sure u know the story. About a girl finding the way home. About meeting people along the way. I like the story bcos of Dorothy, but there is something else in that story appeals to me now, than just Dorothy and her quest of finding the way home. In the story, Dorothy with her dog, Toto, walk along the Yellow Brick Road, and meet the Scarecrow, the Tin man, and the Lion of which each of them followed Dorothy to the Emerald City. The Scarecrow wants to get a brain, the Tin Woodman a heart, and the Cowardly Lion courage.
And that brings me to another story of a girl who was about the same age as me, some 10 years ago. How that little girl, alone, scared and confused, find the courage to go on in life. She was just a girl, and yet she was forced to deal with the hard cruel truth of life. The story has huge impact in my life. I was so touched by the story, and I found myself remembering about the little girl whenever I need the courage to go on.
And when I knew I had to travel to a place 10 000miles away from familiarity, I suddenly hit the urge to find something that can remind me of that little girl and her story. How she go through that dark moments in her life. She survives, bitting her share of cruel life before her time. I knew, that one day, when I am alone, scared and confused, I need be reminded how that little girl find the courage to go on. How that little girl survive. And she was just a little girl then.
I was born under the zodiac sign Leo, which means 'lion' in Latin. Thus, lion means loads of different things to me. Not that I know, lion is a symbol to courage [or according to Wikipedia, its accompanying animal], but I really like the idea of having a lion teddy. Something that is rare-liked by others. And so, my search of a lion teddy starts until I found him in KLCC. And so he travels with me 10 000miles away from familiarity. And his name is Lion [with a capital L].
And I was right. I need to be reminded. Of that little girl. And her story. And her courage.
But, I was so blessed to be reminded again when I was given another lion teddy by a friend. Just in time. And I named it 'Panglima', echoing my 'Srikandi' [same case, different reason] nick.
Say what u want.
For some reason, the word LION may just mean another wild animal to you.
For me,
It means, that little girl. Her story. Her courage.
That little girl is me.
Her story is mine.
Her courage is still mine. Hopefully.

its too wicked!!
here is the deal: all Marjon student have our own drive on the college network which called Hyacinth or more famously known as the N drive. however, before this.. we could only access this drive from computers on campus. i never use much of it till i had to attend this IT classes.. and because i cant access it from my own laptop in my room..i always stick bits and pieces of my work onto the Learning Space [LS].. which i can upload about 20mb. and download it back from my laptop. it works fine before until we have to do this cool project!! hehe...
this term i had the chance to play around with loads of media stuff in IT class...we play around with graphics, animations, videos, audio, and even come out with a tiny project of our own animation.. wayyy too cool!! hehe.. at the beginning of the term..we started this website project and it will be the place to stick all other little projects we did in class...ie the graphics, video [hopefully], audio, and animations.. well along with a personal profile section and a review of educational softwares [which is the boring bit..ahakss]. and in order to continue working.. we need this Macromedia Dreamweaver studio 8.. but u see...its the other bits and pieces of graphics and stuffs need to be carried around [lab...laptop...class...room..] and that sucks! so today.. Mike [my IT lecturer..and he is soooooooooo cool!!], with other CITE [IT deparment in college] staff set this remote desktop so we could access the college network from our own laptop in the comfort of our own room!!!
i can use the college computers in daylight..but u see..there are always loads of people trying to use it. and we can only access Dreamweaver 8 in that particular room up in CITE.. i could work at night as CITE is open till 10pm, i think..but i dont really like the idea being up there at night. scary ooo.. uhuhu...so this remote desktop is PERFECT and WICKED!!! hehe..
its like having another computer... and it works like another internet browser..u can minimize it and all..and the best thing, i can access all my work on my Hyacinth drive and i dont have to download dreamweaver studio 8 and paint shop pro.. hell it saves me load of work!! so now...i am off to finish up my website as it is due on the 19th of May and hopefully everything goes well.. by the 22nd or 23rd of May, all 25 websites [mine along with my other fellow classmates] will be available on the net.. i will of course announce the link in this blog as soon as everything is done n running properly.
Ohh i love myself!! i love me soooo much!!!! i love MARJON...i love plymouth!! i love it...and i love everything in my life now....
WICKED!!!~~~~~

[teruja]
yup thats how it felt. i have been bloghopping and read loads of good post -one after another- from my usual doses and also some new ones.. and i would like to write one too.. a good one. but i dont have much to write lately.. what more good things to write.
so ok.. i have been slacking this past few days.. i should have done what i should be doing but i didnt. but life is a little bit on the depressing part rather than the exciting part.. ok. thats an excuse. lame.
i think i need a new blog. i dont feel free to write anymore. i keep on thinking about the things i put in my blog. i have been deleting every other word i type. whats wrong? why cant i write what i want anymore? argghh..
[life updates]
serious work needs to be done. serious reading and tonnes of it have to start now. this moment. and i realise the amount of work that can be done while i am accompanied by mr ipod is so much more than while im with mr laptop. hmm...might be a good reason to buy one.. so i can spend more time, away from the laptop, in the library.. good for me tho.. hehe.. less time spend on ebay. uhuk.
and next week, i have something interesting instore for me...
something that i have been wanting to do for quite sometime now.. since im in UK..well, not quite what i have in mind but close.. and the last time i ever did it was like 15 years or so ago.
wanna have a guess? here is a clue..
any one else care to join?? it should be fun...hehe..

blog kita takde orang hebat2 baca..
blog kita tak glamer..
blog kita tak ramai peminat..
blog kita...ada ke peminat? =P
blog kita tak puitis...tak gramatis..
kita tak pandai bermain kata kata..
kita tak pandai susun ayat..
melayu pun tak pandai..english pun tak reti..
kita ni biasa2 jer...takde yg istimewa..
terima kasih atas dorongan dan sokongan untuk saya terus menulis..
perjuangan ini baru bermula..
*selamat datang kepada silent reader baru saya!! tima kacih sbb sudi lawat blog saya.. =)
------------------
luarbiasa: as anonymous as they maybe
apparently they are not as anonymous as we think they are....hmmm... they are a bunch of lawyers who blog and i enjoy reading their blogs. and no, i didnt jump from one to another...i found them from 4 corners of the worlds..which basically means not connected to each other. and i cant believe all this while i didnt know that they know each other. i believe they are uni friends. huhuhu.. i have been reading their blog for ages! cant believe i miss that!! i have no-whatever-sort of intention of revealing who they are.. but ya...go ahead..click at their names..and u will dive into the wonderful world of BLOG....
