Chaotic (and yet serene) Weekend

This is my 2nd attempt of writing this post.
*mumbles 'Bongok betul terdelete' and grumbles 'CHOY'*
Am now trying to overcome the bengang feeling by munching macam rabbit on Sensation Crisps.
(There's no way I'm gonna be kurus when Sainsbury jual chips semurah tu okkk)

Chaos_weekend_011 Billingsgate Market
Wow. That's the word for this place: wow.
Went at about 6.30 am; Melissa was looking smexy with her I-just-woke-up-hair, Iman was high on Manga and Khalid, well, he was smiling. We went with such high hopes.
Bought prawns, crabs, Amir's sotong and loads of fishes.
Met the most handsomest Salmon for 5 pounds :D
Cooked most of it after that. Let's say my clothes stank just like the fish market.
Erk *thinks of doing dobi*
Managed to keep a straight face when my flatmate asked me if i smell any fishy smell.
"Nope, what fish smells?" *edges away from her quickly*

Sweeney ToddChaos_weekend_025
Johnny Depp can sing.
He can look hot while singing.
He can look hot with gruesome face scars and grizzly hair.
Heck, he can even look hot when he killed all those people and sumbat them in meat pies.
*bows down to great actor*
The best part of this movie was when I whispered endings to shat and she went "SHUT UP, PAN! I'M TRYING TO ENJOY THE MOVIE"
S-sorry shat, won't do that again~

Trip to National Gallery
This is the serene part of my weekend.
It was... enticing to walk around the creaking floor, stare at the 'Art', inhaling the musty old smells and try to capture what the artist is trying to portray.
I'm impressed with the skull pic and love the lobster on the plate.
Thanks to the person who bought me here, gave me a guided tour, whispered historic facts and Hitler Theory, giggled with me over fat, naked women drawings, belanja-ed me food and spent the whole morning with me.
Like he said; my only regret was that it ended.

Goodbye Nabil
He left.
Apparently with a heavy heart.
He spent his bday here and we gave him a dinner-present.
Thanks to Encik Salmon, Madame Sainsbury Basic and Lord Brahims.
Oh and Amir is so diabetic. Mamat to minum super sweet Raspberry Syrup straight from the can claiming it tastes like Ribena!
And yes, we even sang the customary Bday Song... which totally made Nabil all malu-malu.
HAHAHAHAHA *evil, witch-y laugh*

Chaos_weekend_001 Milkshakes
I went to Tinseltown to drink milkshake.
Although I'm not a big fan of milkshake.
I'm a BIG fan of milkshake!
But it wasn't as fun because Melissa wasn't there to say 'Oof, we must come again when ade deal' and Amir to gossip about his flatmates or Bapak Ayam latest food craze.

Listening to the Heart?
Something caught my interest when I read Shakira's blog. (I hope she never read mine, I'm gonna cilok her words)
She said something about wouldn't it be nice if the heart has a way to tell us whether we are making the right decision.
Hmm, wouldn't it be nice if the heart to 'dup-dup' when we're making the right choice and go 'dup-duuup-kyionkkkk' when we're not?
Hhahaha, re-reading that line sounds silly.
I read somewhere that our body actually do give out signs (i.e: makan tak sedap, tido tak lena, asyik mimpi horror) when we're about to pick the wrong decisions. No idea if it's true or not.
But really, if only right, if only we make the perfect choices all the time, never once making a mistake?
Demo ne, that'll make us perfect. And human are never perfect.
It's human nature to ignore all those gut feeling and blindly take a step forward.
Well, that's my opinion.

Finally, I'm done.
I feel that this week stretched out really nice and long.
Did my accounts, I spent about 300 pounds.
*cries over lost money*
Ah well.
*crawls in bed and stare at Nino*
I totally ignored him this week? Must've been too busy. HORROR~
*directly ikut Amir's current fav line: hysteria 8 saat*

Gnite people, tomorrow I'm going to look at animal skulls and 'ooh' and 'aaah' at their gigi :)

                            

Wicked Night Out

What a week... and it's not even Sunday yet?
Hahhaah. I'm quite sleepy so will be bullet-ing this post:

  • Had one of those test, where the marks will be added at the end of the year so like i'd better do my best kinda thing? *diesssss*
  • Did a celebratory dinner where we cooked and invited hungry afif, khalid, raz and iman.
  • Met Nabil. Oh my God... this guy kan.... Wait, i'll keep it to myself ;)
  • Played Monopoly with Iman. Everyone, NEVER play with this girl ok. She's like the King of Monopoly, she'll lick your money clean!
  • Dabbled on fuseball. I'm... horrible at it. This is why you'll never catch me watching any football  match.
  • Talked till 1 am about nonsense, including Ghost Stories (choy la korang).
  • Ate at Nando's. Fun! Felt like dekat Msia... plus Amir paid for the food.Wicked_nite_out_008 I ate for free (well, almost)... let's thank God for creating studentbean
  • Wicked_nite_out_015Went to watch Wicked. Realized I forgot to bring my tic. RAN BACK TO WHITECHAPEL. Missed half an hour of the show. But it was still amazing. I totally cried when they sang 'Don't start to wish, wishes ruin the heart'
  • Walked around at Harrods, it's boring when u don't have money and all u think about is marrying someone with money so that u can shop *ehem, Nino yang berduit, i'm still wishing*
  • Ate at MSD. Nabil bought Ikan Keli. Gleed over the fact that Amir is so going to be green with envy for eating Ikan Keli with his bapak ayam. HHAHAHAHA *evil laugh*
  • Blanja-ed afif belgium waffle. He gave me the hungry puppy dog eyes and I totally caved it. Oh gosh, i'm so soft~
  • Shopped horror at Oxford Street. Well not me la, Nabil and Raz should never be allowed to shop alone here. They'll buy a whole store koooot~Wicked_nite_out_033Wicked_nite_out_029

Waaah, I can't believe it's 11pm already?? Felt like time totally passed by.
Neways, tidbits:

  1. It's cute to see people 'modifying' afif. Really, all u have to do is shove a piece of clothing at him and he'd wear it obligingly.
  2. Check out this pic. Credits go to Nabil. Cantek kan?Who knew this guy have such talent? Eeheheeh. Tenangnabils_1

Updates~

Celebrated Iman's early birthday yest at Satay House. Choked over the bill but ah well, might as well spend all my money on food.

Chatted brainless stuff early this morn. I was killing my brain cells over utube, the other person was listening to comedy radio??

Studied about various animal skull- teeth to be exact. All i can think abt when i saw those slides were... how amazing God is for all the tiny, tiny details.

Laughed so hard when I read someone's blog cause at the end she said: 'I'm bored and if u're reading this, so are u'. She's so true, bitter irony.

Finally received the blog site to watch House. My test on Monday is so going to buuurn~

Read this somewhere:
'...the addiction is so powerful that if i don't hear the customarily Window's song on my laptop when i wake up in the morning, i'd kill somone...'
Read this and thought: Oh shoot, that's me in 5 years to come.

Listening to non-understandable Japanese blabber on the radio. It makes a big difference when Nino's the one talking.

Waiting for my dobi to finish. Terpaksa kerah Melissa for money. Ah well. That's for giggling madly behind me with Amir yesterday when I walked with Khalid :p

Here's to u, Melissa

Just gobbled up a whole bag of cookies and was about to sleep with my tummy full...
...until I vaguely recall Melissa's motherly (can u believe it, minah ni dah la lagi kecik dari aku) voice telling me not to sleep with a full stomach.
It has just been 3 months, and Melissa managed to create such an impact on my half-alive brain.
:)
We call her:

  • The Great Dicer
  • The Health Freak
  • The One with The Big Heart
  • The Pacifier
  • and all those other (nasty) pet names me, Amir or Raz comes up with in the kitchen

Whatever we call you, we're secretly (now dah tak la kan, since I posted on my blog?) glad you're here with us, patiently taking in all our complaints, supplying us with juicy gossips and laughing your head off about the most ridiculous things we say.

Happy Birthday Melissa!
Hope you had a great day with many more to come
:)

Shat the Dugong

Went to WHSmith just now.
*cries over the ridiculously high prices of notebooks, comparatively to those prettier ones in Msia*
Of all the things yang mahal kat London...
....why did it have to be stationaries???
Joy of carefully selecting and buying notebooks and pens goes down the drain.
Ekk, I better stop whining before both Melissa and Amir start knocking on my head.

On a brighter note, Shat confirmed she's coming tomorrow to berlakon as dugong on my bed.
*muses the idea of that.... with raised eyebrows, berkerut dahi and half-smiles*
She asked me to 'welcome her with open arm, hot food and warm bed'
So I will, happily ne~ :)
Maybe a Bouncing Dugong will lift my black-ish mood.

Christmas Holiday

Christmas_hols_035Christmas_hols_012 Christmas_hols_010 Christmas_hols_031
My 3 weeks of holiday were filled with my parents, home-cooked meals and ohmiya fic.
Honestly, my brain is still stuck on the holiday mode and oh God, it just won't kick-start even with the new year.
That, later, now, updates on my hols:

  • Had a luxurious stay at BNM apartment- complete with kitchen and flat screen TV. Lounged all day on the sofa watching crappy British channels. Errrk, avoid watching them- they are so vulgar!
  • My parents dragged me everywhere (though it should be the other way round). Got sesat everywhere as well- including ending up at the porno street in Soho. Hmmm...
  • Went to Boxing Day Sale. DIED at the queues and the madness of people shoving you to get to the Ferragamo shoes.
  • Invited people for Raya Haji lunch. They came during dinner. Stuffed Afif too many foods due to terlalu banyak makanan. Poor guy~
  • Ate dinner at Holiday Villa with the Menteri and Amir & Gang. Gossiped waaay to many things. Had the pleasure to meet Amir's best friend: Helmi :)
  • Finally received money from JPA. But like Melissa said 'money: hard to come, easy to go'. Amir is currently staring unbelievably at his bank statement and Melissa is back to 'This one is the cheapest, buy this!' Money own our lives~
  • Found out that Arome was here for the hols??!!!! NOOOOO, COME BACK (with arashi vids and Nino goodies) !!!
  • Other than that, lazed around completely. Oh God, my cheeks totally gained 2 kg each. And my brain is so... dead.

Urghh, this post is so.... angst-y? boring?
Ah well, I feel like my aura is black.
Early signs of depression, maybe?
