Summer 2009/2010

Currently listening to Coldplay's Life in Technicolor II

SUMMER 2009/2010

Highlights
1. The Big Day Out 2010 - Auckland, NZ


  • About 12 hours of gig hopping = fun!
  • MUSE was EPIC. It was 1 1/2 hrs filled with awesomeness! tak puas!
  • Midnight Youth was really really good too :)
  • Fell in love with Kasabian & The Veils. Other than they have good music, they have pretty good looking front man too. hihi. Thanks Ahmal for the recommendation. hee hee.
  • I actually love gig-hopping. Altho my shoes were being an ass... it was worth the pain :D
  • Great crowd too. Thanks Ain, Ahmal, Tahn, Sul & Yusuf - seriously, U GUYS R AWESOME! XD
  • The sad part? Ladyhawke's show. Not that she sucked. It was the stage - bad sound system and too small for the huge crowd! I think she should be on the main stage...
  • Another sad part is.. I missed a few other gigs. But what to do... you can't be in two places at a time right?
  • Not going to the boiler room, silent disco and lily world is another sad part. Don't know why I didn't go... *sigh* bengong.
  • But all and all, it was great =D
2. The NZ South Island Trip 2010
  • Parents and Auntie Norena came in early Feb.
  • It was from Christchurch - Oamaru - Dunedin - Nugget Point - Invercargill - Milford Sound - Queenstown - Christchurch - Kaikoura - Wellington.
  • The scenery is always beautiful. Breath-taking :) Tak penah bosan hehe.
  • The best part of the trip = I DID NEVIS BUNGY JUMPING!
  • It was my first time to Milford Sound and it was really B-E-A-utiful! although some of the waterfalls were not there... air semakin sikit :(
  • Watched the blue penguins came home from the sea at Oamaru. Effing cute. Penguins are officially my fave animal :D
  • An eagle hit our car on the road... because of its greediness to pick up something when we're driving towards it... luckily my dad slowed down the car so the hit wasn't so bad and its still alive. phew.
  • Discovered that the Kedahan called a rainbow "Ulaq Danu". I was like.. heh? and got really excited after that. I even name a team in Worms Party "ulaq danu" and started asking around to see if they're familiar with the term.
  • Oh, I actually started my Adventures with Pudding. Brought him through out the journey; and it found a friend along the way - a penguin. LOL. Maybe I'll blog about this later.
3. I jumped off the jetty!
I know it is not really a big deal to many of u, but it is for me. I always wanted to jump off a cliff, but I know that's impossible, so I know a jetty is enough. LOL. But willing to jump off when you're not really a good swimmer is something for me.

Although, something quite bad happened to Aqilah during the jump - she jumped as well and almost drowned. Can't blame her much tho, I kinda encouraged her to join me, and the wave was pretty wild (a ferry just took off) and both of us aren't good swimmers. But that gave me a slap of reality. I felt like passing out after it happened. I thought I may have lost her that afternoon. She survived tho. Alhamdulillah, all was well. Thank you hot stuff school girl. ehehe.

4. Watched a horror movie in the cinema. The first ever horror movie for me. It was Paranormal Activity.

Aqilah & Ain dragged me into this. They even paid for the ticket (as I gave them terms & conditions that obviously can be fulfilled by them easily - who would mind chipping in for like 6 dollars each and to accompany me everywhere for at least a week just to make you watch something you don't want, especially when they're really good friends of yours? not them for sure :P). And in the end, I can't sleep that night. I was really paranoid, I started to imagine stuff. I felt like my hearing was super good that night - I think I can hear almost everything very clearly. The sleepless night was somehow scary, and funny. Because, Aqilah can't sleep too, and we both don't know about it until she turned to me with eyed wide open. That was like 5am in the morning already. The best part? We were next to each other.

LOL.

Other things happened that I think worth mentioning:
  • We cycled along the Oriental Bay with Crocodile bike.
  • The mini concerts at the park - there's a Bollywood concert too!
  • The countless sushi+people watching lunches.
  • The Telecom tree - one of the most beautiful trees I've ever seen.
  • The "photoshoots" at the backyard :P
  • Silent Disco at home.
  • Our Flight of the Conchords marathon.
  • Oh, watched Eagle & Shark under the stars - open air cinema. Love that!
  • Watched one of the most horror vampire movies of all time - Nosferatu. But its not really scary, cuz its the 1920s/1930s silent movie - like Charlie Chaplin but scary.
  • Beaches day out :)
  • Snapped some photos that I love so much.
I am kinda proud of myself for being so careless and free (for most of the summer). Thank you to those who were there with me. For being part of my summer. I can never thank you enough (dramatic right?:P)

I think this is by far, the AWESOME-st Summer. I missed it so much, I feel like going there this Summer, just to experience it once again. But will the new summer ever be the same? Maybe it can be better. Ah, I don't care. I will cherish this one I have now til the end of my life :)

    and time is on your side, it's on side now.

    Currently listening to Coldplay's Amsterdam.

    Whoa I am blogging! The first post for the year 2010! Hari ini dalam sejarah? =P yea right. I have a few in my drafts, it's just that I never completed them. But they do not count right, since they're not published. huhu.

    A lot has happened from the last post until now. It's been more than a month right? I even found my MyKad again. Yeay for me! but I am still considering to get a new one for myself... cuz I don't know if people can still recognize me if they look at the card. As if I have changed a lot. Oh please.

    I have been emotionally unstable lately. Here's the thing. Currently I can't help myself but to count the days, and I hate myself for that. I think they're making me less happy, and nervous, anxious. Not so much of good feelings . Okay it depends. Maybe counting the days to freedom, or my upcoming birthdays, or new years, they're fun. But not when you're counting the days to goodbyes, or the end of something special.

    They are totally not fun.

    Right now, I have two freaking weeks before the summer ends. Actually, summer is not going to end in two weeks, but my summer is. Okay fine, I am going to have a full year of summer starting this year. I have never officially announce this, since I am talking about this topic might as well just do it now. I am going back for good. So I am going to start my working life as soon as I get back. InsyaAllah.

    Another turning point, huge turning point of my life.

    I don't want to think about it, but I can't seem to ignore it. I mean I have a lot of things to do before the last day, so I have to set up the deadlines. Then I will start to count. I wasn't saying that I am totally unhappy with what's happening. I am totally excited to go back, to be closer to my family, to meet my friends, to indulge myself in Malaysian food, but at the same time, I am not really happy to leave a place where I have lived for four years. It's always a mix of feeling great and bad when you are at a turning point of your life. And I think, when you know greater challenges are ready and waiting for you, it is normal to feel scared/worried/nervous.

    But right now, I am going to stick to my 2010 motto, "be fearless". This year I didn't bother to come up with resolutions as I know I suck at keeping them, so I come up with a motto instead. And I know 2010 is going to be a huge year for me. 2009 is a year of change for me. I had to face a lot of changes, which at first were pretty hard but things got better towards the end. I finished uni for good, and I get to see Coldplay (the best thing ever happened to me in 2009 :D) and WoW, I took up a new hobby, I turned 21... things were not bad at all last year.But I know the changes do not stop there... there are more to come this year. That's why this year is going to be huge. And I have to be prepared for them. Am I prepared? Haha... I don't know.

    Let's stop talking about the future. Now, I have to enjoy the time I have left. Before it's too late. Maybe I'll do one (or probably several posts if possible :P) about my summer holidays when it's over. It's been fun so far :D And I hope it will be until the end. InsyaAllah.

    Friday Night.


    I have to admit. Yes, I logged on Facebook every day, but usually its for this. And Pet Society, and Country Story. Okay, I am grateful to have Facebook because I can re-connect with my friends, even my primary school friends. But I am even more grateful to have Facebook so I can have "maintaining a restaurant", "checking on your employees and feed them", "farming", "feeding the chickens, sheep, and duck", "playing with your pet... virtual pet" on my routine. I know, it's very lame, and it shows how I don't really have a life. haha. But I am happy this way. I love playing these games. I don't know when I will have a real restaurant or a farm in my life. I never intend to have one anyway, given the fact that cooking isn't my thing, and I don't know if I will get the chance to have a farm on my own. Actually, I like the idea of having a farm. Well I have been to a few before and I actually like the surroundings. But yeah, tough job. And I have to save money first if I were to have a farm, or even a restaurant. And having a virtual pet is important for me - it's not a perfect substitute, but it is good enough for me. I really miss my cats at home.

    Anyway, I just discovered something - well other than it's snowing in Restraurant City (and Country Story... and Pet Society...) - we can extend the exterior part of this restaurant! So I made the entrance through the small outside area for my restraurant instead of using the door and I love it. It goes with my garden theme. But the whole setting is still pretty simple as I don't have a lot of money to buy stuff, and I don't buy Playfish cash (which you need real money to purchase them) so.. less stuff in there. I've looked through some other friends' restaurant and theirs look more organized and they know how to arrange stuff. I am thinking of doing some "major renovations" but I need the money. Guess I have to wait. *sigh*

    So I watched the fall finale of Glee this morning. I think it ended well, and there's definitely something to look forward to in April :) And I loovveee the songs choices for the Sectionals episode! I can watch them over and over again, although the song "And I am telling you I am not going" makes me laugh. It just reminded me of the sketch Bunny Business in SNL. Try to find it on youtube, I don't know whether they have it there. Oh here's the incomplete one. It's the one where Taylor Swift impersonated Shakira (and I think she's really good and funny) and Kenan Thompson impersonated Jennifer Hudson. He sang that song, but with lyrics related to that Bunny Business.

    I am going to miss Glee :(

    Oh btw, do you guys have any new songs to recommend? I've been putting Glee soundtracks on repeat lately, and I don't listen to the radio/watch C4/MTV/Juice for quite awhile now so I don't really know what's new. Maybe I should start listening to the bands who are going to perform at BDO. That's like a month away! Whoa, how time flies. Ah, better try not to get too excited about it... I'm afraid I'll lose all the "excitement mojo" by the time the BDO day arrives.

    Recommend me one song :)

    December 1st.

    Warning: This post may contain spoilers. Harap maklum :P

    For awhile I think it's so much better to "borrow" other people's words to sum up how I feel. That's when Tumblr reblogs come in handy. But then, they're not from you. Not your words. I should start blogging again, keeping this one updated regularly.

    Its summer here in Wellington. I was thinking of working part time so that I have extra cash to travel, and to buy stuff. Looked around for it, but unfortunately for now the luck is still not on my side. It's hard to get a job when you're lacking experience, and when you only want to work for a short period of time. Well, I just have to keep on trying.

    So I ended up doing stuff I usually do over the holidays - watching movies, watching TV series, and wasting my time with unnecessary activities.Wasted my time, but I enjoyed it. This is the only time I have anyway, because I'll be busy next year for sure. So why not just do things I can do while I still have the time?

    I think I have set a new record for myself - watched 4 different movies at the cinema in just a week. I don't remember going to the cinema so much for one week before. That happened on the week New Moon was out. So it's obvious New Moon is on the list. Other than that I watched My Sister's Keeper, 2012 and This Is It. 

    So how's the most anticipated movie of the year (for me) - New Moon?

    I even bought this t-shirt with Aqilah to be worn during the screening:


    But it ended up only me wearing one because Aqilah couldn't find hers. I reckon she accidentaly brought back hers when she went back home during Spring Break...

    Semangat kan?

    Well, I think the movie wasn't so bad. I prefer the movie than the book surprisingly. Usually when the movie is based on a book, you'd prefer the book because of the details, and sometimes movies cut off or change some scenes to fit into a 2-hour show.

    But for New Moon? I would prefer the movie. One reason is because of Jacob and his abs! ahah okay that's not the reason actually. For me the book is draggy, and depressing, so the movie is like cutting all those crap and make it shorter. Although it's still draggy, but it's better because it's shorter so that's good for me. Seriously, if you're not a fan, or you didn't read the book, just don't go to the cinema. Trust me, you'll find it a waste of your money. I think the fans will appreciate the movie.

    Let's wait for Eclipse. They should have more actions there. hee

    Well the week was well spent I guess. The movie choices were not bad for me. I like My Sister's Keeper - it's so touching, and I bet reading the book is much better than just watching the movie. Maybe I should give it a go. I think 2012 is really scary, like 10 times scarier than Sinking of Japan for me as it's the end of the world, but I was pretty disappointed with the movie because the ending is not like what I've expected. I wanted everyone to die! because you know, its THE END OF THE WORLD! but ah well. Its just a movie anyway.

    What I have learnt from the movie:
    1. Have 1 Billion Dollars. But to make 1 Billion Dollars are... impossible. So..
    2. Get a pilot license. Or maybe marry/ be a really good friend to a pilot. If possible a hot and selfless one. Keep them to you at all time - since you don't know when is "the end of the world"
    3. Own a plane for yourself. I think this is possible...
    4. Consider migrating to China.
    5. Be selfish. If you are selfless you are definitely going to die.
    I know in reality, when the end of the world comes, you know you won't survive. Nauzubillah, I should pray to God that I won't be around during the end of the world... Aminn. But maybe the list above should be useful is one of the big disasters happened. Haha.

    Out of the 4 movies watched that week, This is It is the best!

    I was in awe the whole time. If this show still on, I think I would pay any amount just to go and catch this show. It's just phenomenal. It is another whole new level of concert experience. You can see how hard MJ worked for this. For a fifty year old to be doing basically everything is just wow! Especially the choreography part. I don't know whether I can even dance with full energy when I turn 50. I think the non-fans can also appreciate this movie. Cuz I am not really a huge fan anyway, I mean I am not those who can sing all of his songs, and I am not someone who remember all the dance moves, or try dressing up like him, or learn the moonwalk. I just grew up listening to his songs, can sing some of his songs and stuff. And yet I love the movie. It's worth it. This one is on my top-10 movies of the year definitely.

    I think I would love to experience pop concerts. Like Britney Spears'. That should be different than the concerts that I have been to.

    But up until today, I haven't watch any new movies at the cinema. Yesterday we took the booklet for the vouchers, so maybe soon we will pay a visit to the cinema. For now I want to watch Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (I don't know whether this one is still in cinemas or not...), and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. I can't remember other movies that I want to watch for now. Oh, the movie The Lovely Bones, or Time Traveller's Wife should be nice too.

    Yeah but for now, let's just watch movies and series at home. I think 4 movies in a week is like too much. Maybe I can go to the cinema next week. ehe.

    Time to go. Probably I'll continue blogging later. I need to surf the internet at the uni. Ours is on dial-up so it's super slow...

    later!

    The Smiling Challenge.

    One fine afternoon, we stopped by the Putra Place in Putrajaya to take away lunch. As we go down on the escalator, we saw a man who drew caricature for the tourists.

    Firdaus claimed that he can't have a caricature of himself as he cannot stay still and keep the same smile for 5 minutes (we assume we need to smile for about 5 mins in order for the man to get our right smile). So I told him, its really easy for me. I know that Firdaus always have trouble to smile and keep his eyes open at the same time (his eyes sepet...). As for me, that is nothing. To give the same smile for 5 minutes? Ok je (belagak ok!)

    So he challenged me to smile while waiting for our parents to get our lunch.

    The challenge began. I kept on smiling the whole waiting-for-the-lunch time. Firdaus watched me from far... while he was choosing his lauk.

    Everything went well. Easy.

    As usual, waiting kinda bore me. You're at a food court, and you're sitting alone. And you're not eating. What else would you do?

    I looked around. Observed the people around. And I keep on smiling.

    I viewed txts sent to me at that time, I replied them. And I keep on smiling.

    Apparently I was busy txting someone. Can't remember who.

    I keep on smiling.

    Then suddenly, while I'm busy with my phone, I realized there's someone standing right in front of me. So I look up.

    It was a stranger. An old man, and he was wearing the photographer vest.

    And he was smiling at me.

    I am still smiling at that time. But since he was standing still in front of me for a few seconds, I started to feel a bit scared.

    But my smile is still there.

    Then he left. He walked away.

    But after a few steps, he stopped, and turn around to my direction.

    I ignored him tho.

    Then he took the escalator. Phew.

    I turned around to check on Firdaus. He was laughing at me. Chet.

    Then my 5 minutes time is up.

    ... easy right? But I don't think I would want to smile like that again. Maybe that old man thinks that either I was angau (since I was replying my txts and smiling at the same time) or I am just crazy (...like the Joker).

    Anyway I don't think we need to maintain the same smile for quite awhile (or in our assumption, for 5 minutes).

    Oh, happy schooling wellington peeps =) My first day sucks, so I decided to share this story with all of you. Instead of my first day of school story. Haha.

    Let there be love.

    Like 
    Tristan & Isolde,
    Sir Lancelot & Guinevere, 
    and Hang Tuah & Gusti Puteri 
    Their stories are all the same.

    Cliche?

    Yes.

    But those stories are the ones we keep to pass on to the later generations,
    As their love are too strong, and powerful.

    Every time I watch these kinda stories, I always question myself why is love very complicated? 

    Because of love, people become selfish, then leads to a huge conflict, or maybe many other linking conflicts, then because of that the friendship can be ruined, then the family may be affected (especially when they disapprove the relationship), and worse, the whole nation might be at stake, "killing spree" starts, and in the end, the world is destroyed. Okay not up to that extent, I'm exaggerating again. Love too, might lead to jealousy, envy, lust - again, sins. These lead to destructions too, right? Then there's sacrifices. Made by the lovers for each other, either way, together or not, they'll end up in a painful end. 

    But no matter , love is a great feeling that humans need. Because, if there's no love, there's no happiness. Love is worth all the sacrifices made. And if there's no love, even the world will be destroyed faster. 

    Complicated, love is. 

    Ah well. That's how life should be. Complicated.

    The reason why the earth gets sicker really fast.


    BANGI HILL 28 Jan - This is definitely a work of a super ignorant neighbor. Do you know what is worse? That this is not the first time. The person who started the fire ran away from it, AGAIN. Leaving the others in panic, trying to put out this fire using the water they have left. Yes, there's WATER SUPPLY DISRUPTION in Bangi area today.

    Thank God, heavy rain started to pour down and cleaned up the whole mess that were made.

    Alhamdulillah.

    *sigh* I am totally sick of these stupid, ignorant & heartless people!

    Too much of watching big fire lately. They're scary. Put us all in terror.

    The "little drama" just now got me into thinking, what if there is no rain just now? Will the fire catch my brother Luqman (the so-called hero of the day :P dah mention your name k) who's trying his best spraying (the slow) water to put them off? Will they burn down the two houses that the fire were headed to (as the wind blows them toward the houses)?

    Seriously, if the rain were just a few minutes late, I am pretty sure the fire will reach the houses nearby as they were so close!

    Although its just a short while (and the rain definitely going to come -- explains the strong wind), we cannot help it but to feel so scared. Watching the wind helped the fire to spread, and the water we had wasn't enough to wash them away, I thought the fire were going to burn us all alive. Okay2 I am exaggerating. I thought they are going to burn the whole field next to my house, and do some damage to the houses nearby. Including ours.

    Alhamdulillah, Allah helped us. Hopefully the rain will put off the fire completely, neutralize the polluted air and also the smell. My room stinks. Although I shut my windows and door. Maybe its because the room is next to the field. Oh, Clarice stinks too =(. I wonder where's Ollie? I hope she's quite far away from this field.. Aminn.

    I hope that person will learn. Or maybe that person won't. Ugh.

    We were terrified by the open burning just now. And that was just a teeny weeny incident, as compared to the gunshot, bombing and more open burning in Gaza right now. The fire must be ten times bigger than the one just now. The people there have to breathe the dirty air, and feel terrified to death every minute of their lives.

    again and again, I hate these heartless people.

    I know we cannot pray something bad for people. But I cannot help myself but to wish that Hitler, or "another Hitler" should have cleaned them all completely. That can also be a natural disaster. haha.

    And I don't know whether I should take that back. I don't want to, although I know that I have to.

    Gaza is just one of the many problems the world is facing... there's also Thailand. and more others; the world's economy crisis, people suffering, the earth suffering. Everyone, everything is suffering.

    I hate watching the news now.

    Now, I pray for all these to stop. Enough is enough. Let us all live in peace.

    I wonder when all of us will learn from all these.

    I am sad. and scared.

    Sweetness.

    Do you know what makes me feel great?

    1. Getting a chance snapping a picture of her:
    She's a beauty. The prettiest cat I've ever own. But she hardly stays at home because she and Clarice (who is always around) can't get along at all. She doesn't stay still that much. Makes it harder to snap a photo of her =(

    She's a bit weird. She doesn't know how to play with us, I always get scratches from her. At times she wants attention, but not too much or else she'll chase you away. Right after I took this photo, I petted her, and she got mad.

    *sigh* Ollie, Ollie. I just don't know how to get close to you.

    2. To get a hair treatment. After a year of not visiting a hair salon. Bliss, ok.

    3. Wearing this pants:
    Its the most comfortable pants ever! Oh and those stuffs are on my favorite stuffs list. My beading box (and all the beading stuffs inside, on the top etc), my NDS.

    4. To be able to make these:
    But I am still at the stage of learning, so I am now practicing to make them with a better quality. Especially painting the box. I need to learn to be detailed too. And I need a lot of patience in doing all these stuffs (and thats what I am lacking... *sigh*). Its a loong way to go.

    I learn to make these accessories from Kak Shaz. She's my cuzzen who owns Saya Sukalah . I mentioned about her before . Go on, check out her stuffs, they're nice =)

    Since she came to Bangi to teach me (and at the same time she joined the decorative painting classes), she also teaches Zalika, Fash, their mothers, my mom's friends and also Zalika's sisters.

    Even this cute girl Nana learns how to make accessories. And she has a good taste!
    I candid her picture of her sucking out the push-pop. Didn't get the chance to take a photo of her with her new handmade stuffs. Will do that soon. hehe. Oh this girl is pretty artistic. She also joins my decorative painting classes. Hebat.

    So what do you guys think of the stuffs I made? Just leave me a comment k? =D

    I spent a lot on them! Especially the beads; I can just go crazy if I go to the shop. I spent hours and hours choosing. But memang rambang mata ok!

    Maybe I should consider selling them. Do you guys think I can sell those stuffs?

    By the way, say if you're interested to learn all these stuffs, just let me know okay. Or maybe you can visit Saya Sukalah and contact my cuzzen Shaz.

    5. Using Google Chrome.

    Its just awesome! But sometimes I can get annoyed with it as I am not used to it. Trying to shift from Mozilla to GC. Not bad.

    6. To be able to blog using my serviced, and reformatted laptop! Ah best gila. And... I have organized 18.7GB worth of songs. I manage to clear up from 2000+ songs to 1800+. But I think there's still some files of the same song inside. Now I need to organize the photos and stuffs in My Documents.

    I aim to be organized this year. For someone messy like me, theres MANY things need to be organized. Including labels for this blog.

    7. Met a lot of people today! Thanks to Sufya & Aim for inviting me to your wedding reception XD

    Okay that is all for now. Goodnight everyone! I need to sleep (although I don't feel like sleeping yet). I should blame myself for taking the afternoon nap just now.

    I shall practice playing Tetris now. I need to beat the CPU @ level 4. haha.

    Goodnight!

    The 7 year old.

    So we went to my uncle's farm yesterday. the kambings, as usual, are soo adorable! especially the few days old babies. I just feel like bringing them home as pets!


    comel kan? the kambing i mean. I'm trying to imitate a kambing's face. Tak jadi of course :P

    At the farm, we met a girl. She's 7 and she's super talkative! The amazing part is, she talks about teenagers' stuffs. Should I say amazing? Like she talks about how to use YouTube and watch that "How To Be Emo" clips, I mean, when I'm 7, I don't care to use the computer unless I want to play games. And she knows how to surf the net already! Amazing kan? But actually, that is not too surprising as my neighbour who is also 7 knows how to use YM. I'm already surprised before. haha.

    Kids nowadays. They're too advanced I think. Like this girl, she talks about how she finds Zac Efron & Rob Pattinson are hot. She even screamed "Zac Efron I love youuu!!! aaaa". Funny2. I don't think I give a damn on who's handsome and who's not (when I'm her age). hahaha. I am more concern about my barbies, polly pockets, and my fights with fash. Oh one more thing, she can sing Shakira's hips don't lie. How's that? And she wants to wear a tube dress if she can perform that in Tom Tom Bak. Hebat tak? I don't know what is a tube dress until I enter high school. Am I late or she is so advance??

    Through-out the series of conversations with her, we knew that she's a die-hard-fan of High School Musical. And she started to name us based on the characters. She thinks Juju should be Sharpay and I should be Gabriella. Lawak gile ok. Then she continued "akak, kalau akak nak jadi Gabriella akak tak boleh pakai tudung lahh..."

    And she started to called Juju Sharpay and she called me Gabriella. How cute..

    Okay that is one.

    Then she talks about Twilight and that is when she started to drool for Edward. "Hensem nyerr Edward tu! I nak jadi Bella lahh," she said. I was like.. wow, a 7 yr old watch Twilight? Okay maybe its something kids would enjoy. Altho I think if I am a kid I won't be bothering to watch that kind of movie and ended up drooling for Edward.

    After that she started to give us boyfriends. She said Juju's boyfriend should be Troy and my boyfriend should be Edward Cullen. haha. I am Bella to her now. Then again, she said the same thing "Tapi kalau akak nak jadi Bella, akak tak boleh pakai tudung laa.."

    I sighed. Kids.
    I still cannot accept the fact that they're now more advanced. hahahaha.

    I should start registering that fact into my head.

    A new year. A new (mis)adventure.

    **WARNING: This post is reallyyy looongg!**

    This is my first post for the year 2009 (uuuu....)

    I am late. 5 days late. I was planning to blog on the eve of the new year, but apparently this time, I went out with my brothers, the Ellis and Aidzat. We wanted to watch the fireworks this time.

    And we chose the nearest to us, the place where we believed will pull off the new year fireworks show.
    Putrajaya
    Arrived as early as 10, with McD foods on our hands, we picnic-ed at the side of a huge lake in Cyberjaya. According to Adam, this is one of the nicest spots to take fireworks photos in Putrajaya. As they usually launched them at the PICC.

    We were too early.

    But thats fine with us. Soon after that more people will start filling up the spaces, and we wanted a really good view. We talked and joked around, teasing one another (the usual thing that we do together), and since the boys have their camera ready, we camwhore-d.


    That was fun. Really =)

    The fun made us unaware of the time, and by the time we realized of it, it was 10 to midnight. So we sat down, took our positions, Adam and Luqman set up their cameras, and we waited.

    Til 5 past midnight.

    Called Fash as she was on the other side of the lake as soon as we saw some lights sparkling in the sky.

    Maybe they're warming up. So we thought.

    FN = Fash Nadiah

    FM: Fash! Nampak tak tadi sikit?
    FN: Haha tau takk, tadi jumpa police die kata mana ada fireworks kat sini!!
    FM: But last year ada...
    FN: Not this year tho! Giler lawak ok.

    We all laughed. We have fooled ourselves. THERE'S NO FIREWORKS IN PUTRAJAYA!

    The "small show" we saw was just from a group of people, not the real one.

    But I wondered why the police standing by near us. Why didn't they warn all of us?? There were even foreigners waiting!

    So yeah the plan to watch fireworks on the New Year eve has failed... again.

    We don't want to ruin our already-ruined-halfway night. Since we're in Putrajaya, we decided to camwhore a bit more before going back. Plus, Putrajaya has some beautiful (and they're more beautiful at night) photo spots that we can't miss.

    We made our move to Old Town Cyberjaya to meet Aiman and Addin - another two of our neighbours.

    Then to our first destination; the bridge. I can't remember the name of the bridge. Haha. Shame on me.

    We hung out for awhile. Watched people. There's a bunch of chinese kids dancing around. We felt like joining them, but we can't understand what they're saying; they're like playing a game actually. So we continued with our main intention to go there; photoshoot.

    Snap snap snap!


    One pose after another, then we stopped thinking its enough for now. We have to get on to another spot. We lingered around the bridge talking and laughing with each other while waiting Adam pack.

    He finished packing. and he closed the boot.

    Then suddenly Adam was cursing.

    We were all like... whats up???

    AB: I left the key in the car... *%$#@%

    Then we spent the time trying to break into his car. and of course, we FAILED. Adam still attempted many ways trying to get into the car, while Luqman and the rest of us tried to convince him to go home and get the spare keys. Thats the last thing on his mind; our parents are home. He'll surely get something from them if they find out.

    He finally surrender. Thank God Aiman was with us, so he drove him back to our house to get the keys.

    While the rest of us; Luqman, Elli Farhana, Elli Famira, Aidzat, Addin and I hung out at the sidewalk. Playing stupid games (but fun) like "Bom Ba Chik" and "Botol". Then Farhana realized that she has her old playing cards in her bag, so we started to play Hi Jack!

    And that was a very hilarious game!

    Again, I thank God for giving us such a great time when we're actually facing some stressful situations. The company were very cool too, so its not so hard to entertain them =) Sama2 giler pon. Again, time went by quickly.

    After almost 45 minutes (I think...) Adam arrived with the set of spare keys in his hands. So we all got into the car, and went to the next spot. Snapped more photos. Were chased out by the guards. But I wonder why, there were other people too, and I don't see why they shoo-ed us away. Its not that we're doing something bad.



    Ah well.

    Then our parents started to call. Shoot. Its already 3 am. So we rushed home.

    And the journey ends with smiles all over our faces. That's relieving. I was scared that they didn't have fun (considering what we went through). This was the first time we hung out together, Elli and her siblings, with us.

    So that's how I started my year. And that makes me wonder, how 2009 will turn out to be like?

    All I can hope for is a happy ending. Amin :)

    Thats all for now. I need to start developing my graduation photos, and get the most recent photos from abang. Then maybe I'll open another topic.

    For now, I'd like to wish everyone, Happy New Year, Selamat Menyambut Maal Hijrah. May the new year brings you happiness and greatness in life.
