burgatti veyron

has anyone heard of a burgatti veyron? its actually the car above. posh right. check it out... this car is sold for US$ 1,175,000, has 1001 horsepower and a seven speed dual clutch. seeing this you can imagine how fast this car can really really go, since the normal car only has a FIVE speed SINGLE clutch. according to the online news, it is actually the most powerful and fastest luxury car in the world. it is a beauty but unfortunately only 300 of these are only sold throughout the world since it is actually a limited edition car. if someone really goes out with this car, he or she will be the first person to be robbed, so its kind of a showroom car. but really, for that price, who won't?

T.I. ft. Rihanna -

this is the official video of 'live your life'. i like this music. its quite catchy. this really describes a bit of a person's life. like the video said, life is really a surprise. the ironic thing about this video is that it reminds ppl to treasure what they have in life and TI (the male singer in the video) just got caught for distributing armed weapons. he's going to jail next year, so i guess there will be no more new song for him next year. but the truth about this video may be that, when he gets himself into illegal things, he got himself out by going to jail. pity though, he's quite talented in the hip hop world...

in KL's LCCT airport right now, nothing to do, but got high speed internet so.. i do what all sane ppl will do if they happen to carry a laptop with wifi gadgets in the airport... i am finally online... u noe, what i said was really really wu liao, but nvm, u r reading it so no prob!


me and my personal gold card.
.

haha, did u bliv that, anyway i admit, it wasn't my card but my aunt's. with any gold or platinum card (i think) you can sit in the airport lounge for free, although the time limit is different. you can sit in the lounge for the whole day if you have a platinum card. for my (ahem, i repeat my aunt's) gold card i can only sit in the lounge for free for two whole hours ONLY! what kind of policy is that anyway?! me, i am left stuck in mcD's if i am not in the lounge and you should have seen how damn packed the airport itself is since, ppl come from all kinds of places in ALL KINDS OF INSANE HOURS. but then the only good thing is that i can plug in my lappy without worrying about how long i can use it. since my aunt's card is a gold one, i can only stay until 3 in the morning. i can't sleep anyway, never did when i am travelling. should have brought my uncle's platinum... nvm, lesson heed lesson learnt...
this is part of the airport lounge, the 2 main things that i love about the airport lounge is that it has partitions so, i kinda have some privacy with what i am doing. look at the pic above and you can see that the camera is facing the entrance, so the officials are not quite snooping to my privacy as well. the second thing that i like about the lounge is that it is not packed. but after 3 i am getting my butt outta here. oh, by the way, for every 3 hours in the lounge u have to pay 80 ringgit malaysia. a bit expensive since there is nothing that you can really do except eat the meal, snug your butt on those cushions and play with the internet. but they don't bother you and give you privacy for your whole hour anyway.
this is my first pic in the lounge, see the plant there, i guess that's fake. if you want to plug in your computer then this is right place since the cushion is right next to the walls where the plug points are.
me sitting at the cushion, listening to some music.
don't care about this pic anyway. anyone who knows me well knows i am damn vain. haha, if mom could see my blog, i guess she will go into an apoplexy, so many colorful curses. when hath one blog been so bonnie in different hues... i am really going shakespear. talking about shakespear, i don't really like classics, but i guess, me and shakespear really share one common ground - we both like dramas. anyway, who doesn't? only i like the modern kind and he likes the extinct kind (dino here i come..)

oh right back to the airport, my flight at 8:50 yesterday night delayed for half an hour and since i already sat at the airport from 4 o' clock in the afternoon, i am already tired of waiting for my flight to come. so when they announced the delay i was so flabbergasted that i really wanted to hang my mouth open in agony. the flight was further delayed for 10 to 15 minutes and i was annoyed, really annoyed. i arrived at LCCT at midnight, and waited another 1 hour for all the baggage to go through. i had no choice, so i sat on the trolley (which i almost topple over)... then walked straight into the lounge. i swear tommorrow when the doctor happens to check up on me the first thing he will notice is that i'll be having blisters on my seriousl deflated butt. after 3, i am really not going to sit for at least 30 minutes. anyway have to go pack, my time is almost up...

driving test

remember i told you all about my driving test well i failed. do you noe which part i failed? i can tell you that i failed the most stupid thing in history... promise me you'll think b4 you scroll down... but then if you don't who is there to stop you. haha, just humor me for a bit...

tada, my results were:
parking - pass
over the hill : pass
the dead end turn: pass
the remaining one would be...... the road test.
i failed that one. actually i the most pitiful thing is i didn't even last for 5 minutes on that test. i failed solely because i made a wrong turn, before i was even on the main road. there was this small rough and rocky lane before we hit the main road. at that road, there was no sign saying that it was actually a one way street. the small lane alone was so wide that it can actually fit 3 cars side by side and i thought since there was no other cars i could just drive straight ahead so there i go. then the police kept shouting for me to stop, along with sneezes in between. when i stopped the car and looked at him, you should have seen his nose, he looked like santa's reindeer. anyway, i didn't really look at him that much. he told me to scoot over to the passenger seat and then he drove back to the institute. by then what i thought was, damn damn damn, would i fail, or would he give me another chance? by then the man who was in charge there asked me what happened and i told him that the police in charge was giving me another chance. then he said that i was lucky. by then i really got my answer already, that i would fail for that day. when the other candidate finished his test, the police just handed me my result slip. he just slipped on his glinting glasses and strode as quickly as possible into the office. he wrote there. kawalan gear tidak stabil, brek tidak cukup and a whole lot of things just to push me to fail. i got the first five ticks and the last fifteen cancelled out and that was my first test that day. i took up that piece of paper and marched up to the police guy. i said that i just drove through that whole area for only once only (which was true enough)and argued with him for a good half hour about my eligibility to have another chance for the road test. at first he kept denying me and then he told me to go through the rest of the test and if i passed the rest i need to actually sit for the road test the next time i come. i then compromized and just strode to the desk and when i showed my result slip to the woman in charged there she had this smirk on her face and said:
"you failed the road test ka."
then she passed the slip to the other lady. when she was about to open her mouth i said that the police said that i can sit for the rest of the exams before going to JPJ and request for sitting for the road test only. she said impatiently: 'yes i noe but just take this slip and go there'. haha wrong time for protesting. when i walked towards the area, i thought, what is the easiest method to secure that i will only have to sit for the road test? i was really feeling down at that time, really really down. then a thought struck me. cry. i was thinking, 'eat your heart out asshole' silently to the police who failed me. i took my phone, dialed mom and started crying there. anyway i already wanted to cry not because i failed my test but because i lost my pride begging that stupid man to give me another chance at the test. i started to wail a lot, deliberately sitting in the wrong place and in the middle of the whole institute. the man who asked me what happened in the whole course then took pity on me and discussed with the other police who were in charge of the other three parts of the test. they agreed, everyone agreed and then bingo. haha, i was thinking, 'asshole really eat your heart out this time'. those three things were the things that i really made sure i do with merits. the first test was up the hill. i stepped on the clutch, pushed to the first gear then stepped hard on the accelerator and pushed to the second gear. 'eat your words dumbass', stepped on the clutch then the break. perfect! free gear and hand break. then i waved to the police and they signalled for me to go. clutch, accelerator, free half of the clutch until the whole car vibrated then the accelerator again. release hand break and go. i didn't even slip back, haha. i was already grinning from ear to ear. haha, no one defeats chia shing. even the police in charge of the area were grinning at me when i handed them my slip. the rest were baby stuff, the parking, the dead end turn. stupid guy for failing me. i knew he wouldn't be there to hear my results and probably never will, but then the rest of the people would know what an asshole he is. that alone brightened up the rest of my day. next time when i see him i will hum, 'blinky the reindeer with a nose as red as cherry and a big bum that will crush the seat as he sneeze and sneeze and sneeze.' (refer to frosty the snowman song)
haha, stupid reindeer, i bet santa will refuse to leave presents under the christmas tree at the 25th. i grew out of childhood anyway.
anyway he probably wanted me to bribe him, serves him right that my portion of money will never reach him before it goes to the other staffs pocket. but then i learnt one lesson that day and that was how to handle things on my own when i am arguing with someone else. that alone was good enough for me although the crying part will grow old eventually. too bad, i am still mommy's little girl...

hello again!

how was the maths exam everyone? i think it was different from all the past years. if fennie didn't ask me about the maximum and minimum point without having to use differentiation i would have left the 6th or 7th question (if i am not mistaken) blank. to be honest i didn't forget how to do the differentiation but without practice i would have 90% chances of getting that question wrong. overall it was not that bad. i've already predicted that we will meet about last years condition. i thought it all over yesterday night, how i will go wrong and how my marks will go backwards and not forward. to be honest it was rather sadistic, i sorted of just buried myself will all those suffocating six foot amount of problems. i finished the questions at about an hour. the moment i finished it i almost threw the pen down on the floor. frustration was just building up. i don't know why it happens and it was not as if i didnt know how to do the questions at all but i was frustrated because my prediction was right, cambridge changed their style of questions again. and again it happened in our year. i was not really sure if my answer was correct or not. but no matter what it is i hope sincerely that it will not happen in our physics question. i don't have enough preparation to do any changes they put out in physics. not to mention that i actually failed my first ever physics test when i was form 4. i don't want it to ever happen in my life again. i just hope that there will be no changes in physics paper.

yesterday i even tried 2001 and 2002 bio papers. i found out that i actually forgotten a lot of things that i studied before, my prediction for my exams this year will be doom, doom and more doom. arghhh...... what is it that is actually affecting me? i can't pinpoint myself to anything right now, if i find the source i will terminate it immediately. i keep saying to myself, chia shing, chia shing, this is your last shot whether you like it or not, do your best just do your best. then when i am really really down, you know what i do? i actually took out all the presents you all gave me before i went back to penang. and i looked at it, and it somehow gave me comfort. most of them are jewelleries but the best things of all that i received were memories in which all those small gifts were given. i remember when i got my desk, the first thing i did was arrange those gifts in the top drawer. when mom saw it, she asked..
''wasn't this drawer supposed to be filled with stationeries and not jewelleries?''
i just told her that i did not have any place else to put them so i put them there. at that time, i didn't fully understand my actions but somehow, i only came to find out that they were actually put there to secure my memories with all of you, somehow i unconciously put them there because i wanted to be reminded that all of you were supporting me from a distance. a support that is so close yet so far. i thank you all of you for giving me that and i hope that in this post i can remind you all that you have all the best of luck from me.

oh yea, just wanna tell you all that i will be having my driving test on the next friday! hope i pass, really really hope i pass!

anyway got good news, i will be going back by december. not sure when but when i book my flights, i'll inform you all straight away. and lastly and the most important thing of all, do not slack (haha, i noe a bit harsh), study hard and smart, push yourself over your limits and get the best grade that you can have! good luck everyone!

ps: thanks supa, i will try my best but i know that you'll be studying a lot more harder than me, just noe that i'll be supporting you all the way until you earn you medical degree! luv you.

ps: for yuki. thanks for wishing me good luck on the phone. you too, earn your A1s so you don't give me any reason to crush you wen you say you got A2 nia... haha just kidding, good luck get thise A1 for all of us! (hehe, no pressure given...just do your best)
its about time i uploaded all this into my blog. saw this over a month ago in gurney plaza. i think this is the only shop in that mall that is dedicated to romantic teenage girls. all pink. since my friend loves pink so much, i had to tag along. i almost threw up at the sight of the overwhelming hot pinks. my my, i can't take so much at one go. but then saw a few things that all girls might be interested about.

yuki, i think this is supposed to be your signature doll. so cute... but then i think you need to add the word glide over (chinese) as well.although this one is quite simple but can you see the way it looks at you? hehe, so adorable...

the hospitality course in our school is having their course test these few weeks. they had been serving the customers for every monday and tuesday. to be one of the customers, we will have to reserve our seats for at least one week before. the whole meal costs 10 dollars. they have the appetisers, the main course and the dessert. i bet when you hear the word 10 bucks, you will think that it is expensive. but then all of that is served in hotel style. if you go to hotel for even the buffets itself in penang costs about 200 dollars per person. so it rather worth it. they have different servings every week. the first time i had the servings they actually served me filipino food. i rather like the appetizer and the dessert. i forgot what the appetizer was called, but the potato in it was cooked with the sweet potato into crisp brown perfection. rather different from the usual western meals. when you actually bite into the appetizer, you can actually taste and smell the freshly baked potatos. i love the appetizer. the dessert was actually a very common asian type of dish. they cooked the gullotine rice and then added a scoop of ice-cream on top of it. along with the contrasting hot and cold ingredients, they put just a sprinkle of cinnamon powder on top of it, adding to the uniqueness of the whole effect. very nice.

my second time was actually italian. to be honest i always hated italian food. the food was always too sour, too cold and so not my taste. but then when they served me the meal that day, it was actually much much better than what the high class restaurants always served. to think that a freshman could actually beat a proffesional was actually a laughable thing to know. we had onion soup for the appetizer, it was a bit too oily but then the taste and texture was superb, i don't really know what they put but then i guess i was always a little biased when it comes to onion since i always loved the smell of it. all i could think at that time was 'good thing they didn't serve an english style onion soup'. if you look up to the original recipe of the english onion soup, it was always dark brown in color and the texture was so thick that the ingredient just kind of like stuck out of the soup. yuck...but then they take it with bread. i really love the caramel pudding with berries on topthe caramel pudding

dessert that day. they had this caramel pudding with raspberrie and blueberry on top. around the pudding you can actually see the home-made type of raspberrie and lemon jam. very natural and very delicious. they even added a little lemon zest on top of the pudding so it was great. every one should try it!

in response to supa's chatline

yea, i thought it was kind of cool as well when i saw the whole blog feature. maybe because i put the blog to classic template, so my chatline was loading a bit slow. your bio test so fast got test ahh.. my trial is next month, a bit scared because my lecturers here have almost finished all of our syllabus already. my chem lecturer even finished the whole organic chem part so we are going to sit for a whole lot of chapters meshed up into one paper. my physics teacher taught us until the light part already. it was interesting but rather hard since there was a lot of things to imply. my main problem now is that i don't know how i am going to memorize a ton of physic formulae in my head. they really pile up to form one high stack of desperation that will definitely make you faint. i am a bit worried about bio too. since the rest of the students sit for the spm last year, they more or less already covered about 70% to 80% of the syllabus we have now, so the lecturer is just going to brief us about a few important topics and teach only those that they haven't covered last year in detail only. the only thing that i can say about myself is I AM DOOMED. i am only consoled by the fact that they haven't covered as much as us in physics, chemistry and a hell lot in maths, so the teacher will teach in detail for the rest of the subjects. i dropped the pure maths class at the start of the course. no point in sitting for the class when you have a full timetable ahead. anyway i wish that i can aim for all A but then i have to work hard on that.
this is my bro with his new haircut. handsome? he's so cute in that pic. it's like he has just updated himself this time. he wants to have my the other bro's haircut the other day and when he requested that haircut, my my my, you should see the way he talked. he was like half shy, half whispering that it just made me want to hug him and tell him that its all right. but by right, i should not since he will be leaving me by december, so it's not good to do that.
my new haircut. when mom saw my haircut, the first thing that she said was,
'so short ah, won't the end be curled outwards'
the thing is i don't really care. haizz, my hair gone again, miss it. fennie said that i 'xiang bu kai' in chinese. haha, maybe.
i always have this kind of impending doom when i sit at the hairdresser's. i always think that, 'what am i doing here.' when she holds up the scissors, my head tells me, 'tell her to stop', when she is going to snap my front side hair, my head screams 'stop!', then when she finishes with my haircut, i always thought 'who cares?'. a lot of people cared about it. to girls, maybe all the girls around me here, cutting your hair is equivalent to committing a sin. see the girl at the background, that's my 22 year old cousin. used to be very close to her as a kid, don't really know what happened to us when we grew up, we just sort of like stop the connection. to be honest, i probably can speak more freely to her brother than her. i always thought that if i had a bigger sister, maybe just maybe, our relationship would be like this. who knows?

oh yea that day when i snapped the pictures at my aunt's house my cousin, andrew was curious and came to see what was happening, since i had two kids hovering around the laptop, getting excited with everything. the little girl that you saw above, suang drop the earphone and bent down a bit to pick it up. it was then that i snapped the photo. then andrew suddenly just ran. i was a bit surprised. then it dawned on me. i had his picture. he was dripping wet and half naked with only a towel draped across his bony hips, haha, he looked like a drenched rabbit... i teased him by telling him that i would post the pic on the net. he shouted out in protest, but then he knew i would never do that..
suang saying something at the background.
my bro posting himself. this stance looks so much like the position kean used when he's taking a picture. when i see this stance from both of my brothers i always thought that they are distancing themselves and trying to look cool. it kind of gets on with my family though. i wonder how boon will look when he grows up. maybe like kean, he will leave a long thread of swooning females. probably more since he's more accessible than kean. haha..
suang amusing herself in front of the camera. this one also will be a heartbreaker or should i say heart -twister. you should have seen her when she was with me. she clings to you every single moment and demands every single attention that you can give her. that day when she was in front of the computer, she kept smashing the mouse area, when you tell warn her that it was wrong she looks at you with her big round innocent eyes, then pucker her lips up and say, 'it's paining?'. haha, she really is quick to save herself from a bigger impact and guess what, she's only five. she's positively annoying at times but then she's just as quick to squeeze your heart into a dry pulp. she stayed with us for 3 days that time and she was missing her parents like hell. when she called her parents. she was half sobbing and half trying to put up an understanding tone. she said, ' Daddy, are you alright? can you sleep at night?' she sniffed, then she said 'did you eat well?' sniffing again, then her voice brightened up when her father asked what she was doing there. haha, she's so quick to change from one expression to another. it's a wonder how her mother survives all that.

non a bit wu liao...

haha, wanna see how all of you react to my setting the background pink. not quite me, i know but then just curious...

i think i like this advertisement best. not too brooding but still retain the sensuous appeal. not too pink either, but rather towards those autumn blooms that really catch your attention. wanted to put it as my back ground but then the pic is not large enough... sigh...
this was the first ad i saw and i thought 'wow' it really really did catch my attention. the sensuousness, the dream appeal. it just 'strike'. if someone really wants an eye-catcher for any fashion business at all - this should be it!
when i see this ad, i just think that it is odd. everything is positioned in an odd way. even the rest of the pictures juicy couture display are odd. somehow the oddness of it just catches attention. the thing that i like about this ad is that it always give me a comfortable feeling. it kind of take you back to regency but then it is still modern, kind of frenchie. notice that the inside of the jacket is made up of satin. think of the softness brushing against your bare skin... damn i want to really close my eyes in ectasy...
this pic looks like a ghost pic. but then, nina ricci almost always (so far) publish this kind of pic. you can't really find the reason why they put it. you have to dig and dig and dig. hate digging, especially if it is my assignment (which it is not now since i am taking GP). i kind of find GP very different from what i used to do in my life. i loved writing stories from the start so i put 5 stories in a GP essay. no originality, no fun, that's what i hate about it. arggg... who cares, i am sitting for the A levels, nothing else, so who cares as long as i get great marks?

o yea, if you want to find paranormal romance books i have a suggestion. go and look for kresley cole's book. i enjoyed them very much. found a spanish girl website, can't remember what it was but she is also a fan of hers. she wrote a lot of criticism on the heroine in the book, very funny. i had to hold my breath in order to stop laughing. really her books are two thumbs up. what i can say about the author is that she really has beauty and brains. you'll see why when you search for the author alone in fantasticfiction.com. you can find her books in 4shared.com. enjoy!

braces...braces...

see that
see that, my bro and me (and my braces). you can't really see clearly but actually my braces are blue. i remember when mom first saw my braces, she was so shocked that she said,
"aiyo, so ugly ah!" haha, of course i look ugly now. when i take down my braces i'll look beaut... haha seems like i am carrying on the fairytale of the ugly duckling turning into a beautiful swan... corny enough for me to actually make myself blush!
now i look like a dork. the perfect dork with wide frame spectacles and a set of braces...

went for the night market that day. mom's friend is actually selling organic vegetables in the market. very cheap, only RM 1 for each packet of vegetable. helped her to sell for awhile. but then you all know my selling skills, employing me will always be a disaster. want to know why? i always managed to shoo away people rather than sell anythingat all!! i guess i'll never manage to actually convince anyone of anything.
oh yea cheow wei, happy a little belated b'day!!!!!!! hope you have the best in life for the years to come...
now in school so couldn't post my braces pic, forgot to bring it. that day, nivea came to our school and we were given free gifts and one free printed pic. if we want another picture then we would have to pay RM2 for it, so i saved this photos in my pendrive instead.

the nivea fair was held in the school's hall. we got a bottle of lotion and a deodorant. i love the lemon grass smell, not too overpowering and not too subtle, just nice. two weeks later clinique also held a promotion in our school. had to skip the malaysian studies class just to listen to them talk fill the form then get the $200 gifts. there was a lot of people attending the session alone. couldn't my hands up fast enough to answer the questions, because if someone answer correctly you get to win the eyeshadow worth $55. haizz.. nvm that is what greed brought me to...

the next day when we had our malaysian studies class the teacher just called out my name. i was in shock and could feel my heart beating. damn and be damned why am i even the first to be called out? loads of girls went to the promotion and i was the first to be called out?

" why weren't you in class yesterday?" silence, i could just feel it eating on me.then i told him i was in class. then he asked,

" then you disappear for the last ten to fifteen minutes is it?" i really wanted to laugh out the predicament i was in. he kept talking, my mouth kept twitching, the irony of it was we were allowed to skip other subjects (which i never skip)but must have at least 70% attendance in malaysian studies class. the system can only be described as stupid...

then he called out stephanie's name (the girl who is sitting beside me), she raised up her hand and he said in disbelieve,

"you also kah? you also disppear for the last fifteen minutes of class?"

i was already giggling. she hesitated for a moment then said,

"i fell asleep in class so i didn't know you called my name"

which is worse...

"fennie" his voice boomed out.

my friend sitting on my right raised her hand. i saw him just raise his brows in wonder.

"you also?"he asked. by that time i think he was really enjoying our guilt. bad bad teacher... haha..

"i went to the toilet sir.." fennie just said.

haha.. i couldn't believe we actually got famous with this escapade. stupid kind of fame but still stupid...

anyway got to be the judge for the coming debate next week. no need to talk in the least but fennie and i are going to bully ah long to be the chief judge so he would make a closing statement.. so bad..

oh yea forgot to tell you all i passed my undang-undang. went for the driving practice last sunday. had to take the two hour journey by bus to butterworth since there was a major traffic jam on the penang bridge. i thought it was hard but it was kind of okay until i got to the hill part. my mind kept playing back and back again..

"free the clutch but keep your legs poised there, step on the accelerator and immediately break when you reach the 'tiang'..." at first i panicked and the car slipped backwards. second time i pulled on the handbreak i freed the clutch so the car "die fire (in chinese)". third time, i went over the yellow line. fourth time, i went too fast over the hill so off i go circling one round to get back to the hill part again.. don't know how many times i tried that even the instructor got frustrated and ended the session 15 minutes early. he kept calling me "amoi amoi, apa yang kamu buat ni?" i think he actually got scared sitting in my car.. haha.. not so bad la, just jesting...

when i get home i'll write more, maybe finally be able to post my braces pic, don't show it to everyone (which i am doing by the way).

i wanted to keep two different parts of my posting today and will do it about two times per week. and yes, i finally get to wear normal clothes to school. about the chemistry class, the lecturer said that by the end of the year only half the class will be present. they didn't actually drop the subject but we are allowed to choose if we wanted to attend the classes or not. the bad thing is we have to take an extra subject for one semester and that is moral. i don't really know why they call it a moral class but it is actually the malaysian history. the worst thing is the subject is in malay...... all the malaysian citizens have to take up the subject. we even need to pass moral to get our certificates.
every subject is divided into three parts which is the tutorial (homework time!), the lecture (boring speeches where the lecturer just come in and talk) and the lab work. if you don't do your homework nobody will care anyway, because the teacher just give but never receive homeworks. i like going to the lab though. our microscope alone costs about 3600 malaysian dollars. we have a new type of the pipette pump where you just need to push the scroller up with your thumb and press the soft button at the side to release the solution. and the labs are clean, clean and clean. mainly because the teachers keep complaining about the slightest stain in the lab! our chemistry lab even has a shower stand to clean of any acid when it is severely splashed on the clothes.
the thing that i don't really like about the school is the long school hours. true to what yoke khee said, my classes starts at 8 in the morning and ends at 3 to 6 o'clock in the afternoon. maybe it is the newness of everything or maybe it is just my emo part, i actually missed md, i miss walking to the canteen with yoke khee, chai eng, supa, nisa, cheow wei, ying hee...... and a whole lot of people. i missed sitting together in the canteen with all of you and talk about boys and stuff. the most funny thing is i even miss wearing the tudung with you all and see the tudung droop down on our foreheads or seeing our hair jutting and poking out at the sides. haha now that i think of it, i even miss the hunger pangs that chuan ho puts us through while waiting for his belated meals... sorry chuan ho no offense!
everything's fine here, i even went shopping in the 70% sales yesterday in metrojaya. haha, grace will really scold me for not heeding to her advice but i only bought 3 clothes. i bought a black hush puppies shirt with a little puff at the sleeves and small flowers at the hem and 1 white sleeveless top from pop soda and 1 yellow t-shirt also from pop soda. and you know what i only spent about 20 brunei dollars for them. quite worth it because (bashfully) i have too much sleeveless shirts and only a handful of t-shirts. oh yea, and we can actually wear sandals and very very short skirts to school. but then being the good little girl i am, i wear long pants, t-shirts and spectacles to school. (this is when we say bu yao lian). haha...
hi, i didnt really write anything these few days. so sorry about that. well, i'm going to start with the most interesting news first. late last night my maid was sleeping in her room when she suddenly heard the tiled floors making a grumbling sound. she was always terrified of tsunamis so she quickly ran out of the room. when she was safely outside her room, the floor just suddenly exploded, creating a big crack on the floor. my aunt was sleeping in the living room and just heard the sound of glass crashing to the floor. she initially wanted to go on sleeping but then my maid came to her and repeatedly soothe her chest with her hand and said
'saya takut loh...'
my aunt asked her what she was afraid of, thinking she just broke a really expensive piece of glass or so, but then the theory wasnt plausible since we kept no priceless ornaments in our house. she then followed her to her room and then saw this big hole on the ground. when my maid pulled out her mattress, the tiles on the crackline were forming a line ridge on the floor with pieces of shattered tiles beside it. it really shocked the daylights out of mom, my aunt and my maid as well. feeling scared mom called dad at the dead of the night and you know what dad said?
he said that when they were preparing the area for construction, they actually have to pile the ground first in between the two important beams of the building. without even waiting for the soil to settle, they sped up the construction of the building. so when the time comes for the soil to actually settle, the two important beams sink to towards each other, raising the soil in between. so the 'explosion' was actually one part of the evidence of poor planning. he said before this happened, the pipes will burst a little causing the pipe problems, with the water seeping into the floorboards. for the first time i was actually really really glad that dad is a great civil engineer, if not i would actually let my global warming, tsunami and end of the world thoughts run away with me. and to think that i was actually sleeping like a baby at the time it happened really frightens me.
granny told my maid that if she didnt wake up on time, the floor might actually 'gobble' her up. trust granny to make people more scared than they were at first. mom, aunt and maid just laughed after dad told us that the settling of the ground rarely happens again.

DNA Replication Process

a bit of video describing how the DNA is replicated. to be honest i hate the background music but i finally found out what are the okazaki fragments!

DNA Structure

this is the basic video introducing DNA. not that much but only help in introduction

these days i'm a bit dazed. it seems as if my life here is no longer real. i went through a lot of stuffs in my head. my head keeps telling me, "marissa you need to go, pack up your stuff, do your things and just go". then it goes, "tell supa about it, tell eng about it, tell cheow wei about it, tell nisa about it". then when i walk beside somebody, my head keep telling me that i should tell them that i'm going. i'm confused right now. the way that i'm telling this seems like i'm suffering from schizophrenia. i can tell you fully that i'm not, the guilt is just killing me inside. when i sit inside the car on the way back home i looked closely at the leaves, the trees, then i try to finish my homework on time. but then i saved a whole lot of ebooks from the net, so to bury my aching soul in oblivion, i read fictional characters, escaping from my life for a short moment. then i worry about how i am going to break the news again. the whole thing just repeats again and again.
mom messaged me today. she told me to fax a copy of my recent result sheets. i went into a whole lot of problems for at least half an hour before i can fax anything through. i was really wasting a lot of time. i haven't finished my homework because i read the whole novel(wicked deeds on winter nights by kreshley cole) at one go yesterday. it was better than her recent two series and i loved it. i still got a pile of homework to finish but i really couldn't help myself and i still got twenty over books in my hard drive just begging for me to finish everything. what i need to do now is focus on my studies which i can't seem to do so. my willpower is really flagging. all i want to do now is read and write my novels. it's becoming an addiction for me. if i admitted to myself truthfully, this is what i can do naturally and not really become bored or lose interest in. when i write something on cards or even write one short essay, i can think up the plot within minutes and the rest just comes naturally like flowing water. and that is ultimately why i won't give up sitting for the English AS exam for the general paper this november. i just can't. as for the commentaries, i already got familiar with it. i like to spot the small stuffs and think of what it means right now. when i chose the subject this year, when i just heard about the topics it covers i knew it would suit me better than anything else. and you know what, i never thought how well it would fit me. it was as if i was going home. the familiar grounds of my life.
had a great conversation with sing yee and eng last thursday. we were talking about taking pictures. sing yee said she wished tht someone could actually write a script and make all of us act out in the field. there must also be a person shooting us professionally so we could capture life as itself. then i said, whenever we tried to shoot something, the picture would always turn up differently from the way we looked at it in real life, whether it is the distance, the set of colors or the ambiance that made it to be what it is in nature. sing yee said thats true. she said that she once saw this really great setting, the sun at the back of the thick clouds just peeping outwards. then there was this small ray of life showing through, casting it's straight rays downwards on the ground. she said she wished that she had a camera at that time. but even if someone did have one, it would not really portray that image as it is, for a camera is a different object, with a different range of view. what you see will not come out as the same thing in the camera. i agree. i noticed things at times, wishing that i could really capture them as i saw them and show others what i saw. it would be really interesting if i could point out what it was. maybe my answer lies here, maybe someday it would be the epitome of my future. but just maybe, not really.

i don't know how to start off with my own revisions this time. i got really bad marks for chem and bio. it didn't even reach a satisfactory mark. told mom about it, i know i got really depressed that day. when the questions came out, i should have known. they were predictable like hell, i should have spent more time focusing on that few topics than focusing on how to finish every single subject. i knew every single answer but i phrased everything wrongly making the answer vague and veering it to another meaning. and then the extra part was i didn't finish my test paper and panicked at last minute. the last mistake i made was that i spent too much time on the graph so i would have finished on time if i left it for the last part. damn i hate that paper. remind me never to make that stupid mistake again. my chem took a bad turn. i didn't explain enough as it seemed. got 67 for that test paper and the irony of it was that my mark was the highest in class. 67 67 67 67 i am really going mad. do you call 67 a mark at all? damn, the test paper sucks. i am no relegated into the C grade, long live the loser... the irony of the ironies......
i just found the DKNY advertisement on net. yesterday our english teacher told us to do a commentary on the nina ricci perfume ad. to be honest, i like the DKNY ad better, the meaning given is clear and precise, very modern and it really brings out the depth of life itself, whether it is in the city or otherwise exotic places. here are some of the photos......




these are the diesel advertisement. the colors really bring out the life in the picture. very attractive and innovative. makes you know the meaning straight away.
this is the nina ricci ad, took me a lot of troubles to interpret the meanings since nothing seems to connect. but when i looked at it for almost an hour. i found that it really has depth. the silver sash hanging the crystal apple perfume bottle, the silver leaves, the light pastel colors, the woman's wavy hair, the gown, everything... but still because i wasted that half hour i found that i couldn't finish anything at all because there were too much things to write about.
i like this ad. the answer key was actually the apples. apple for New York, the big apple, then the rest really links. the big buildings, the red splash of color. the way it portray just makes you want to have it. that's what i like, strong and straight to the point!
this is the perfume bottle of the Nina Ricci perfume. Beautiful right? Like what the ad said...magical!

sting - shape of my heart

oh yea, i just found out the movie is Leon or the professional. hope you guys enjoy

Sting - Shape of my Heart

i loved this song since i was a little kid. somehow the song just reached into me. it was actually the soundtrack for a 1993 movie. i forgot what it was, but i just saw some glimpse of it. the video showed a hired killer walking back to his own flat every day. a girl of almost my own age sat at the edge of the railings looking at the passer by, smoking.the girl's parent were those kind of corrupted parents. then when she saw the man, she would give him a seductive glance every time he passes by. the man would ignore her, walk to his room then take off his coat. when he did, there were a lot of firearms strapped to his body. then he would open his case and reveal an AK47 (i think).
one day, a mass murder was held in the girl's home, killing her parents and her only brother. she was out at that time, buying the groceries. then when she came home and went into one of the room, she saw her parents lay dead on the floor, their steel, cold, soulless eyes facing her. she dropped the grocery bag and went straight to the man's house, crying and banging the door with desperation. when the man admitted her in, he refuse to take care of her so she took up the 9 millimeter gun on the table and started to shoot randomly at the passer bys below the flat. just like that, he took care of her and taught her how to shoot and plan an assassination. at the end the hired killer died by the gun of the police while trying to save the girl from them. she buried him under a tree and planted his favorite plant near his grave. the story was quite good actually, i wanted to search back the video but i still can't find it. it is an old song but i still loved it over the years, i doubt i will ever get bored with it. here's the lyrics..

"Shape Of My Heart"

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for the respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart

i am so dead meat today. i have a high stack of bio notes to read and i still haven't finish them off yet. i don't know what i am going to do this time but at least it is in the last period and when i come back i have a high pile of homework to finish. i really broke down last night, shouted at every single person because they woke me from my sleep. i woke up at 3 to just study yesterday so its just plain unreasonable to wake me up. i did nothing wrong,i won't admit it anyway. i am only sorry for my bro though, he did nothing to make him deserve all that shit he had to put up with. i am already at the end of my nerves. say one more word and i may blow your head off kind of situation. i tried to keep everything in, i tried that very hard, even to an extent of being sweet but when my fuse really blows, my nerves don't die down they explode. i don't care anymore about my studies but i can't can i?




i just found this out in my computer. some of the shots are taken last two months, some of them just a few weeks ago...

Beauty

Supa asked me about my 2 brothers yesterday. i guess we are in an age where looks matter a whole lot to us. she asked if my little bro will grow up some day to become as handsome as my 15 year old bro. i said he will be handsome but will not have the same attraction as my other bro will give. somehow he will have another kind of attraction, which is his intellectual, his caring nature and his much more innocent allure. that i believe, there has to be something different about a person to stand out in the crowd. but no matter what happens they will still be a part of my life, from childhood to maybe adulthood.

in english class yesterday, our teacher wanted us to comment on the 2006 DKNY perfume ad. there were apples, even the perfume itself was shaped as an apple with an apple like tag at the silver top of the perfume bottle. then khai saw this ad and said,
"the girl is so hot!" i couldn't help it, and laughed out loud with the others.
"you should watch less porn you know" hanah said irritatedly. i admit he should. it a damned nuinsense sometimes and its rude when you are talking to a person. he even made up a fantasy of being married to our beautiful english teacher. he had this really short haircut this time. hanah said he looked like a girl. when i gave a "speculation", he kept shaking his head asking me to deny what hanah said. then hanah told him to remove his glasses, and when he removed them... damn there could be no other boy looking more like a girl anymore. he pouted his lips then said,
"i'm not a gay and i wish to fuck a girl every single day!" at that time we really did double over, laughing into fits. talking about rude, it's also hilarious when he gets the full attention of the girls by being laughed at. we are so damned bad!
when i went to pick my little bro up, one of the student's mom always dressed to show her full body figure. whatever she chooses to dress, her code was to always look provocative. and the thing was that she always did. yesterday she was walking in the opposite direction to me across the road. she put up that haughty head of hers and walk straight across the road without bothering to look at the cars and still looked as she always did. i arched an eyebrow at her and looked towards the coming car's direction and guess what. the car's driver was actually a lady and her effort of staying sexy, came to nothing. haha, she just crossed the road as if all the drivers were male with drooping saliva from their mouth. thats the problem of being beautiful. sometimes you become so attentive to your appearance that you miss every single thing surrounding you and also become the laughingstock of the audiences surrounding you. the irony of it all.

My life, I own, I owe to myself

my life has been different in a lot of ways. the things i went through, the sequence that my life was played out just makes me gasp sometimes at the deep emotion it made me feel. all my life i wanted to be free, to be at least not confined and tied up to a place but to take things into my own hands. That someday later will cause a lot of uproar in emotions. to be me, purely me without any other influences would be a bit hard after all we are all on stage acting our parts in our own world. Life, the meaning of my own life is still not that clear cut to me, and i doubt it ever would. to me life is the teachings of yourself to what your own life means and no others. they will be forever adding up, multiplying in numbers until it is so vast in variation that it can only be yours and no one else's. but before that i want to keep track of every single events so i will not miss out in myself and the things i treasure in my life. this will be my story about my own life in which people can only watch and see but not fully understand what i wish to imply in. Knowledge comes a long way, no one has the same set of mind when they live in the same space together and that in itself is a treasure because there can be only one you surrounding you. Like me, like life, like my own...

How i control my anger or negative emotions

this will be some sort of a random post. I think all these years I never really felt free. I find that most of the time, when a problem come...
