When True Colours Reveal.

Finally everybody can breathe now, kan? Phew. Now i need to go gym-ming as usual. I can feel my bumm and tummy getting bigger than before. Hahaha. Frustration leads to weight gain. Hehe. I really need to start back the habit of gym-ming. But Next week Puasa month is starting. Come the time when we bump into almost EVERYBODY we know who's anybody at the Bazaar Ramadhan. "Long lost" friends, atoks, neneks, auntie, uncles, cousins...the uncle kat gerai mana entah will tegur your parents sbb dulu regular customers. Haha. Really.

The semester is almost up. All thats left is just our finals which is like, 40%. Exams are during puasa-ing month la. This sem has been great. Working with people other than the people i used to worked with in the 2 previous sems made me realise what i've missed out before. Haha. Stupid me. I was arrogant. I still am. Haha. So?

Honestly speaking, i love this sem, besides the workload lah. i'm sure next sem'll be worst, la. Nornal lah. We'll eventually have to get through it anyway...

Today dee and i went to Syed ss19. we were trying to break free from our usual location mamak bistro. Haha. It was her idea, lah. i thought she had been there before, so i kinda wondered why the hell does she wanna go there, when the food here tastes better. Anyway, nvm la. i just went along with the plan. Haha. We got there, and she ordered nasi gorang ayam. haha so it came, and it tasted like crap. To me, at least. hahaha. Heeeeheeee. And it was 5.50 ringgit. Wasted gile. Hahaa. Even the Vadai i had wasn't that great of a deal, coz it wasn't freshly fried. Yucks.

So Dee learnt her lesson. Jgn makan food there, sbb tak sedap. The only thing which is sedap at Syed is their Appam. Even their Biryani sucks.

I Wanna Grow Gracefully Old and Wise...


Condolences to Aza for the passing of his father on the 10th of September 2005.
Al-Fatihah.

Hello, All.
The thing about life is that nothing is predictable, eh?
I don't know if i'll be ready for such surprises.
But then again, who is?


On the way back from Melaka today, we (my family and i) diverted to Seremban 2 to have lunch. After a few minutes of looking for a decent shop to fill our empty and growling stomachs, this quaint little glass walled shop caught our eye. It had a few paper signs stuck on the walls saying "Chinese Muslim Food". We immediately parked the car and checked the place out. As we sat on the cold aluminium chairs, we browsed the menu. The waitress said, that they just opened the shop yesterday so some of the things on the menu are still not available. But she said it in the most friendly way. An old uncle, clad in a simple tee with khaki pants with a skull cap (ketayap), who we thought was the owner of the place reckoned we should try the "paper chicken" and his own-made Tofu. And so we did try, and it was delish! It turned out to be, he is the cook and the minor share holder of the restaurant. That was like, one of the few moments i've ever tasted real chinese food. I mean, of course i've had chinese food before, but they're either cooked by malays (sure-lah dah modify to suit the malays' taste), or over-commercialized and soaked in preservatives. It's not authetic anymore.

The uncle came to Malaysia from China when he was only at a tender age of 16. He claimed that he once cooked for Tunku Abdul Rahman and another Chinese Politician back in the 70s, in a once famous Peking restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. He's been cooking for more than 30 years. What i like a bout him is that though he wasn't highly educated, he is a wise guy. He said, he admired the way Tun Adbdul Razak spoke, "Educated people speak softly, gently...We cooks, speak rough!". Of course he said it in malay, with the chinese twang. I admire him for being really humble though he had heaps of amazing experiences. I hate people who boast. And yet i boast. Ironic, i know.

Back in a more familiar place, my mom and i went to the sundry shop in ss14 to get some stuff. And when we were at the cashier, i turned to my right and only to find that a chinese chap spoke in tamil to the Indian lady behind the counter. He said, "paravallei, paravallei..." as the woman was about to put his stuff in a plastic bag. Haha. I guess he said, "no need,no need". Kan? I smiled with a silent chuckle but i still managed to catcch their attention. The lady and the chap smiled at me. In my head i was thinking to myself, "Hah! What do you know...i thought this things only happens in local merdeka ads". I mean come on, how often do you come across such scenes in real life? Well, that was a really funny moment.

The crowd over at Mamak bistro at about 7 pm sucks. Muke-muke poyo tengah lepak.

Mr. Tee-Shirt Dude?

People at the gym are constantly socializing. At the juice bar, in the changing room, in the sauna/steam bath...by the weights machine...But i don't socialize. At all. Hahaha. I prefer to be alone,minding my own business. Everytime i'm on the treadmill, i will watch either Mtv or starworld while plugging in my headphones to the channel selector. I don't know if anybody would notice (but if they do, they might think im cuckoo) but i would giggle, laugh, smile, even make a disgusted face while watching the telly. I mean...how can you not give any reaction while watching "whose line is it anyway" or "i bet you will"? Yes. It is bi-polar. One's really hilarious, and one's really disgusting...bluek. On other days i either watch hollywood squares or Room Raiders. haih. nothing else to watch ma~

Oh. Other than Dr Irene, there are a few other people from college i've actually bumped into. One dude is our senior in degree and the other woman ...I know she's from our college...but i don't know which course la. Architecture, kot.

I can't help but laugh when i saw Kaling's face and Liyana's face when they saw tee-shirt dude today. Haih. It was so farny. Earlier when we were in the student lounge, they was a few girls sitting, and when they saw us coming in, they made this really gedik face and went out just as we sat down. And i was like..."who are they?" Steph said.."Sem one la...all anak datok la.." I don't mean to steareotype, i know not everybody is ever-so-proud to be someone's daughter or son. But...alahai. Its not cool at all to act all high and mighty. Its poyo. Just plain Poyo and tak ayu.

I feel great now for burning a little calories than usual. Teehee. I know results will only be visible maybe like a year from now... i hope i will stick to my goals this time. haha. i slack a lot. everybody knows that..haha. i better work hard...nak kurus like pooi pooi. Right? Right? heehee.

Incubus Rocks. And i know someone has definately preached to kaling about them music. Hahaha. To whoever that person may be, Kudos! (Just like how Brandon Boyd would say it)

Overall, the first day of college wasn't all that bad. Got back CRM results, laughed laughed laughed...Liyana's hair is now....interesting, and I got to see Kaling's face when she saw Mr. Tee-shirt Gear lima reverse! hahaha. Her face was like in Gear 1, and then forgot to hold the clutch. hahaha. That means her face was like...Ooop, control...then excited. ahhahaha.

Heehee.
Good night people.
