Selamat Hari Raya Orang Qatar!

Macam banyak je tahun ni kuih raya as ramai duk kasik... Tahun ni my brother and moi will be driving sendiri balik JB. Horrors! As I never drive more than an hour before and out of KL. Hehe... Still at the office feeling immensely bored. Menaip blop sambil main game worms at my phone. Game Worms ni tak adil. Ade ke patut bile tiba nak kasik weapon je, my team punyer mesti masuk air. Hoh! Still haven't paid my zakat fitrah yet. Will be doing this today, obviously. I like to procrastinate. Selamat Hari Raya Alisha, akak and abang adam. And to all others out there. Abid dah balik Changlun dah. Tsk. Tsk.

Le sigh

I had just finished watching Penelope. Oh my, oh my. James McAvoy. I was insanely jealous of Christina Ricci. Hukhukhuk. The movie was sweet. It wasn't great. There are something that I guess that can be improved. But I like the overall whimsical tone of the movie. Reminded me a bit of The Royal Tenenbaums meet Amelie. Love those movies. And this movie is so sweet that it brought a blush to my cheeks. Heh. That is what I called it. The feeling of giddyness. Like when you finally meet the guy you had been wanting to meet and you could feel your cheeks getting hot. Its a little bit like this. So yes. I like this movie. Though there are scenes or plot-holes I found myself questioning. Nevermind those. I guess perhaps I love it more cause of James McAvoy. But Christina Ricci is sweet, though her character is kinda weak. I found myself liking Reese Witherspoon character more. Heck. I even like that Edward Humphrey Vanderman III character more. But there's nothing really grating with

If you can't win. Don't even try.

A month or so back, I had an IM conversation with one of my ex. Before that, we split somewhat unamicably with me furiously wanting to leave him. And he furiously do not want me to leave him. Haha. I remembered that he said I would regret it. Bah! I hate it when a guy said that. I would proceeded to try my damnedest that I would not regret it. So even today I NEVER regret it :P Anyway after a while he was cordial and friendly back to me. Because he found another lady that win his love. I couldn't care much less nor more. But its fine anyway and I rarely hold a grudge (rarely not never ok) so I am friendly enough. But our conversation are limited to like once or twice a year. Back to the first sentence in this post, I can't remember if I IM him or not, usually we talk vaguely on how you doing and how's work before ending it with a 'later'. But that day we were a tad bit chatty per usual before he was asking me this question " So you are never going to get marrie

The boring post on what I did yesterday that you can skip.

Well, well, yesterday was a half day for me. Got out of the office at 1pm and me and fiance proceeded to the nearest Klinik Kesihatan to test out if we are HIV positive or not. One less boring marriage form to finish! Happy to say, I can continue to spread bodily fluids around, if I choose so. Well, not to say that I would or people who do have HIV refrain from sharing their bodily fluids eh. Apakah topik di atas ini??? Well (again), all is well and I finished all of those at 2.20-25 pm approx (gile awal) and we continue to pick up fiance kad kahwin. It was not exactly as what he wants because there were some silly mistake happening last week, but he seems happy with it. Lelaki memang begituh. And all that finished around 3pm. Pastuh pikir2, balik je la kan. Alang2 dah dapat permission half day without kena isi borang. Bukan ade keje pon (cewah! Ade berbulu budak2 ofis baca). So I laze around while watching THS (True Hollywood Story) with my nephew happily rolling around beside me. He

Finished !

with reading Middlemarch! Yeay! Like it. Will not read it again in a hurry. But I would like to pick it up again after a while. Will update with the next reading list later. A bit sleepy. At long last, I watched the Orphanage. Scary gile. Tengok cite sambil squint2 mata taknak kasik nampak sgt. Because I was so darned scared, I paused the movie sometimes during the most "dup dup dup" heart thumping times and watch ANTM in between to calm my nerves. Hahaha. Little children ghost scared me most of all, ok. Huhu. Well, yesterday AKHIRNYA berbuka puasa jua with Sheema, Gon, Ja and Seri. Had a blast. I think we should just stay put with berbuka puasa di rumah je, lepas tuh je kuar lepak2 di McD. Huhuhu. Gamba2 ada di Seri and Sheema. Kat mana-mana aje nak camwhoring. Oh, I was reading about ADHD diagnosed in women (even in their 30s and 40s) and got a scary thoughts that maybe I do have ADHD. Heh. Especially on this statement, The daydreamers. The space cadets. The little girls wh

I like the sound of rain against the window

I like rain. But I like it less if I am drenched and spattered with mud by nearby cars dashing to the car park. BUSY again! Sumenye nak before lunch hour. Grrrr...... Tapi I blog. Well, just because of a need to vent on how angry I am everyday reading on the news about the food poisoning of the chemical melamine (malas nk cek ejaan) into baby formula in China. And this brand is a highly distributed brand in China. Mostly bought by middle - low income family. And their babies are terribly ill and dying. I hate these type of species. I understand greed. I don't understand greed where it comes to a harm of another person. I am even more angry at the world when the victims are innocent children. Well... sambung kerja balik. "The need to blog is strong in tis one"

Macam Busy

Perlukah aku explain further? Bukan ade interested pon nak tahu pasal aku kan? KAN?? KAN ??? KAN ???!!! (gile mood mendownkan diri). Wahahaha. Will be back in time, or on time or in a timely event. Hahahaha. Nak tidor la dan sambung baca Middlemarch (not necessarily in that order). Yes, am still reading Middlemarch, it took annoyingly long to finish, but I WILL FINISH it damnit! But I still maintain that it is an interesting read and give a glimpse to even our own character. I squirm reading it, sometimes. p/s: This is a filler post. No, I do have some ideas on what to blog of. But no time. Later, I guess.

Brief: Diary of the Dead

Hmmm... Just finished watching. Been watching movies this weekend. Yesterday was Forgetting Sarah Marshall. It was funny but not great. Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, we can draw some parallels on the subleties. But Land of the Dead is just fun to watch. Diary of the Dead is a bit preachy in its 'subleties' (but really graphic). Drawing parallels on war in Iraq, 9/11 and of course human nature in general. But that my thoughts on it. I much prefer Dawn of the Dead. Night of the Living Dead is too depressing with its late 70s and early 80s fashion. 80s fashion depressed me. Romero's movie never explain why this happens. Hoping that maybe he would make 1 last movie before he died, explaining. But kinda doubtful on that. Ngantuk. Mari tidur... or p'raps for some of you bersahur. But I don't sahur. So tidur la. (Gah! Tidur ni mesti mimpi zombie)

Outsourced

Been busy for the past few days. I should be busy even now... tapi macam muak tengok documents and tables for the past 3 days, so I found a respite in blogging ok. Had 'acquired' (as taken from eyeris's words of choice) few movies that I haven't manage to watch such as Night Watch, The Orphanage, and banyak lagi la. So since it is ramadhan month and I felt bored in lunchtime, I figured that I will try to watch one of the 'light' movie in my list. One of those are Outsourced. It took me 4 days of lunchtime viewing (tempat duduk gile tak strategik ok, and even though we have free reign in the internet, I do not think the bosses will smile on workers viewing movie during supposedly working hour). And it didn't take that long pon, about 20 minutes per view in a day. Ok la tu kan. This is why I opt for a simple light and funny movie that I could just stop and continue the next day. (Missed the days in HP la sikit when we would watch ANTM and macam-macam movie se

Amazing Race Asia for Ordinary Asians?

Yesterday I watched briefly the Amazing Race Asia nye pre-show. You know the episode where they introduce all their contestants/participants/racers. And I couldn't help it but feeling like 'muntah darah'. Almost all of them are either actors/host/models. There is only one pair that do not eke out their living from standing in front of the camera. The Singaporean couple.  Don't the casting director know that doofus Marc & Rovilwalt from last season makes viewers like throwing stuffs on the screen. Whenever they are on, I am really not interested in watching. It's like watching a really forced bad gag.  Now they have to go ahead and cast not a pair or two or 3 pairs or people that is a host or actor or whateverumaycallit. But (Ok... I am trying to calculate in my head and I am really bad at maths, so I maybe off), but from the 20++ contestant. 10 or more are actors/models/beauty queens or host. So you Amazing Race Asia casting director. Why don't you just dro

Puasa Today!

Gile tak best tajuk. Well, didn't did anything particularly great this weekend. Sepatutnye have to continue to mengemas my room and the house, but I got distracted by THS Tyra Banks. LOL. Didn't start puasa today like everybody else for obvious reason as per usual every year. So jab lagi nak goreng corn beef ok. Hehe. Well.. merdeka come and goes. Almost every 31st August from the first year I started on this blog, I will write something. I was planning to, but of course that didn't happened. Honestly, there is nothing to say. This year I am not proud to be Malaysian. Oh, I am a Malaysian. I love Malaysia. There is no other place that smelt like home more than this country. However, with the political fiasco going all around for this year, and all the incredibly disgusting corruption news, stupid politicians giving stupid statements, inane parties forgetting ethics and sense itself... well. There is really nothing to be proud of this year. Yes, the people make their v
