i'm so hungry i think i'll eat my friend, captain bard


Oh. Don't mind me. ^^ It was all random and no directions.

Baby, I'm gonna miss you! :(

I'm so stressed for some reason. Weeeeeiird!

not ready yet

It's Monday and it's less than 24 hours before I will be getting on that plane and flying off to Kota Kinabalu and I haven't even packed. I feel so unprepared! I'm not ready to go yet. What if I forget to bring something? What if I bring too much? What if I run out of money? What if I starve? What if I'm too fat to fit in my swimsuit? What if... whoa... I think I'm panicking.

Wow. Did anyone notice that I've managed to blog everyday for the past week or so? I know I kinda missed Friday and Saturday but that's the magic of blogs! We get to manipulate time and space!! Muahahahahahaa. My record is so not broken yet.

In fact, one of my lifelong dreams is to own a Levi's that I look totally hot in.
(My birthday is coming up next week)

10. Money in your wallet?
I only have two ringgit left! I'm a poor poor girl!

11. Times have you dyed your hair?

KIM IS TAGGING...
If I read your blog, you're IT!

presenting kaypoh

I got a special something for everyone today!

I was fiddling around with my webcam, again. Yeah... remember the last time I was fooling around taking pictures with it?

Oh, and you know.. my webcam automatically takes a picture everytime you switch it on. So this was a result of that.

Kimmy

I look so funny. I guess I always have some weird funny expression on my face when I'm not actually too aware of what I look like. Haha.

Sorry. That's not the special thing. And I'm not going to take funny pictures of myself using my webcam again.

But guess what?? I made a videoblog! My first!

Oh, but I have to apologize beforehand that the volume for my video might be a little bit soft... so if you're gonna watch it (please watch it please), you're probably gonna have to put your MSN Messenger status on Busy so that it wouldn't make any noise.

And you won't get a heart attack everytime someone nudges you.

But don't forget to put the volume on your PC back down again after you're done watching it. Afterward you turn on your music and you'll be in for a loud shock. Not only you.. but everyone else around you too.

I'm also a little spastic in my video. Haha! Word of warning. I'm also not gorgeous.

Titles and graphics were created using Photoshop. Video was edited using Windows Movie Maker. I lost my Adobe Premier CD. Still looking for it. But once I do find it, I will consider making more movies. Uh... also considering that you guys don't hate the one I make now. The entire process including recording and editing took less than one and a half hours.

Enjoy! And please comment. Thank you. :D

grinning widely



Guess what?









flying to kk
Flight plan. Haha.

Tanjung Aru Sunset
Sunset at Tanjung Aru.

Manukan
Manukan Island!

Woohoo! I've never been gone anywhere (vacation-wise) without family before. Mark your calendars for I shall be gone from the:

26th June - 30th June.

I'm so excited on going! Eventhough I don't really know what to expect out of the trip. I'll be flying over via icky AirAsia together with Marwina and Wani! Our friend Halim will be going over ahead of us. He'll be going to KK on the 24th. And then we will all return back to Miri on the 30th.

Hopefully the plane that we would be taking would have air-conditioning. My friend told me before that once he and his family were flying over to KK and the plane did not have any air conditioning! What the. At least..... at the very least... a flight over to KK is only half an hour.

We are planning to stay at Hazman's place but his parents won't be around.

Yesterday my mom asked me, "Are Hazman's parents going to be around? I don't think so, right.. cos his family is in KL now." and you can see it on her face that she expects me to come home pregnant.

Ew! I told Wani about it and she told me that Wiena also said almost the same thing.. she said that Wiena was like, "What do they expect.. like we're going to have sex party like that."

Aiyerrr... why are our parents so gross lah? Wani said that parents these days think that all that kids want to do is have sex.

-_______-

Anyways, moving on...

I guess we are definitely going to visit the islands. I've only ever gone island hopping in KK once before cos every other time I've been to KK I've only stayed at the hotels. I forgot which one was it.. the one with a lot of stuff to do at.. with golf, para sailing, jet skiing, banana boating, scuba diving, and there's also an arcade and a day care center for kids.

So weird, right? Go all the way there only to stay at the hotel. But I loved that hotel. It was so cool. And so high class. At least from what I remember.

I also remember making a last minute trip over to KK just to spend New Year's there. We flew like, on the 31st of December and came back on the 2nd of January. I remember how magnificent the fireworks were! We never got fireworks like that in Miri.

And I can't wait to do some shopping~ Muahahahaahahahahahahaha!!!

Ahem. *Grins*

the truth is

I just finished watching Just Like Heaven. Streaming online too!

Fantastic stuff. I barely have to wait for the videos to load to watch them. Which must mean that the loading time should be super fast for you other people out there. My router is a bit messed. *shrugs* So my internet speed is running slower than it should be.

Anyways, I felt really sad watching the movie. Cos it got me wondering.. what if I was in a coma.. how would people react to it? Would they feel sad? Would they still have hope that I will one day wake up? Or will they pull the plug on me? Yeah, rather morbid stuff.

Then I thought instead.. What if Mark got into a coma? And for a very long time. I thought about it.. and I figured I will be very sad, heartbroken, and scared. I know those are the obvious reactions to the situation where a loved one gets into a coma, but.. lately it's been hard to tell if I love him.

I know.. scary. And for awhile, I was scared. Just last weekend, I admitted to him that I haven't felt for him the way I should being his girlfriend. I don't know whether I should've said it out loud, and especially to him.. but who else can you be truly honest to, if it's not your loved ones.

But thinking about him being in a coma... and knowing that I would be so broken by it.. I'm sure that I love him. He is a bit hard to love though. He's not like the normal guy.. who would give up everything for his girlfriend. He's not the kinda guy that knows how to be romantic. He's not one to buy flowers for no reason except to see her smile. He's not one to shout it from the rooftops that he's crazy for her.

And as for me, I'm so... I would love for my boyfriend to be fun, adventurous, taking risks, and to not be ashamed of me and for what we have. Hopeless romantic. Yeah, I told you so.

It's been awhile that I've written anything like this. But I can make an exception. It's midnight.. so when else is it more appropriate for someone to get all emo?

Two weeks ago.. we almost broke up. Heh. Felt something there just having to admit that it happened. But yeah.. it did. We were both going through shits.. we weren't at our best. He decided that we should probably go on a "break". An all too familiar road..

I broke. I mean.. I really broke. I cried, I sobbed. I did not care who heard me. I was so scared. I hated what happened during my last two so-called "breaks" with previous ex-boyfriends. They were cowards who didn't know how else to break up with me. So they said we'll just have a "break" from one another. But after awhile, I would find out that they've been seeing someone else behind my back or that they've already moved on.

I didn't want that to happen again.. I couldn't believe it was happening again.. I took it badly. I took it like I had no shame. I took it not as a "break" but as a "breakup". Mark understood why I was overreacting.. but he stood by me the whole time.. I have no idea how long I cried.. and I have no words to describe how broken my heart felt that night.

We did not go on a break that night nor did we break up. He held me for hours that night. I know he's not like the others.

He may not be easy to love at times. But I do love him.

it was never my intention to brag


Paramore - Misery Business


Artist: Paramore
Title: Misery Business
Album: Riot!
Year: 2007




I'm loving this song. And I'm totally digging Hayley's hair! I have honestly always wanted hair like hers. All spunky, colourful, so in your face and so out there. But unfortunately, I don't have the matching attitude that kinda hair demands. But it looks simply gorgeous on her! It is also so great how she's so tiny but she's got this huge attitude and voice to match.



I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top
She's got a body like an hourglass that's tickin like a clock
It's a matter of time before we all run out...
When I thought he was mine she caught him by the mouth

I waited eight long months
She finally set him free
I told him I can't lie he was the only one for me
Two weeks and we had caught on fire
She's got it out for me
But I wear the biggest smile

Whoa... I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa... it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But god does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
Cause god it just feels so...
It just feels so good

Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore you're nothing more, I'm sorry, that'll never change
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey, but I'm passing up, now look this way

Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
They want and what they like it's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse

Whoa... I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa... it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But god does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him right now
And if you could then you know you would
Cause god it just feels so...
It just feels so good

I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving...

Whoa.. I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now

Whoa... I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa... it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But god does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him right now
And if you could then you know you would
Cause god it just feels so...
It just feels so good

WATCH THIS!!

i got the chicken pox

facialed

... kidding!

I went for my facial yesterday at Dermalogica. My skin now is all red and blotchy, thank you very much. So please don't freak and run in the other direction thinking I got some contagious skin disease.

I went after church. Was late for my appointment. Cos no one bothered to wake me up for church, so I didn't manage to take my shower in time. So right after I got back from breakfast after church, I hopped into the shower. But by that time, it was already 10.50am. My appointment is at 11am. Hehehe.

I had Mark rushing me to get out of the shower. We were gonna go together, see. :P We reached Dermalogica at 11.20am. Anyways, I was so relaxed during my facial that I fell asleep several times. Hahaha! The most hateful bit was when they got out the evil metal stick and start to pick out all the evil grit and grime from your face.

But I was so embarrassed when I jumped so much and almost fell off the bed. The girl that was doing my facial for me put an extremely cold mask on my face. Either I didn't hear her warn me cos I was asleep or cos she just didn't say anything. Cos when I felt that cold mask going onto my face, I jumped. It was so cold. Hahaha.

The facial that I went for costs about RM170 but I only paid RM150 for it. Haha. Yeah, that's a lot of money, right? :P I would usually go for a treatment that only costs about RM100 but they recommended this other treatment instead. I know it sounds like I got conned eh? But the clincher was when they said that I didn't need the other treatment that I usually went for cos my skin was so much better already.

After our facials, we dropped by Mark's place for awhile before heading over to Imperial. Usually I would be very self conscious about being seen in public after a facial cos I would be very very red and blotchy but I didn't mind cos I was with my boyfriend and as long as he was there, then I am fine. Wah. I sound so self absorbed. Like I don't care about anyone anymore when I got a bf. :P

Then went shopping all afternoon. =) And had a very late lunch at 4.30pm at Dave's Deli. Had my yummy yummy Spaghetti Carbonara - Turkey Ham. You should have it too!! Mark had fish and chips. Got home at about 5.

It's been awhile that I've blogged anything real. And my blog's starting to get a little laden with images. It must be terrible for anyone still stuck with a dial up connection.

But it's been so long that I've blogged anything real that I don't feel like I can simply do it anymore. =( It's really hard to get back into things when you've been out of it for such a long time.

Hang on. I'm gonna get myself some cereal to eat.

*returns with a yummy bowl of cornflakes*

BTW, I'm typing all of this while watching TV. Hahahaha. I'm so amazing that I can type all this out without even looking at the keyboard. Thank goodness I can do this, you know? This way, I won't have to miss a single minute of any of my shows. Hehehe.

I'm watching Avatar on Nickelodeon. I actually love this show. It's so epic!! Too bad I don't know anyone else who watches this show. It's cool cos they've got all this powers... fire bending, wind bending, earth bending, and water bending. Not all of them has all of them though. It depends on which tribe they came from and depending on the tribe which they come from, they will have the ability to "bend" or control certain elements.



And then the Avatar is someone special.. like Neo from the Matrix. The supposed chosen one. And he's the only air bender left on earth. The other Avatars have been killed, I think. I don't really get to follow the show cos I don't know when it's on. I just watch it when it just happens to be on.



So the Avatar is going around trying to learn all the bending techniques and to master them while he is being chased by some tribes that are out to kill him which I'm still not sure why.

But anyway! The story seems to be very interesting. Once, they managed to capture the Avatar, but another person on the inside of that tribe who's been after him for so long, for some reason turned his back on his tribe and helped the Avatar to escape. DRAMA!



I also don't know why. I miss too many of the episodes, I think. =( Oh, and the fight scenes are so fun! And sometimes they are so epic when one tribes goes up against another tribe. Then another tribe's livelihood is threatened, and then drama and magic, and death, and then survival.

But yeah, do you watch the show? =)

PS. I really can't stop with the images these days. I'm sorry!!

just to say

drooling at the ceiling


BTW! Have you guys seen Justice's music video, D.A.N.C.E.? I thought it was pretty cool. I especially liked the part where a keyboard just falls out from under that girl's T-shirt.

I also found out that they have another version of their video. There's the one that we usually see on TV and another which.... I have no idea why we don't see that one here too. Maybe cos it's more explicit?

But only by slightly! And I do like how the other video ended better than the one we get on TV here.

Here!

The first video is the one we usually get to see on TV and the one after is the one that we only get to see through YouTube.



Haha. I especially like to get them to play at the same time just to be able to spot the differences. It is wicked fun.

Enjoy!

the accidental adventure

Did you guys happen to catch this little piece of news? I found it totally hilarious.

Wheelchair man gets highway ride
Unidentified 21-year-old man in Michigan state in his wheelchair lodged in the front of a truck
The unidentified man was kept secure by his wheelchair's seatbelt
A wheelchair user has been taken for a high-speed ride along a US highway after his handlebars became tangled up in the front grille of a lorry.

The back of the 21-year-old man's wheelchair was scooped up as he passed in front of a lorry leaving a petrol station, Michigan state police said.

The truck driver drove off, completely unaware that he had a new passenger.

Passing motorists told police, who found the man unhurt - but still attached to the front of the truck.

He had been kept in his wheelchair by a seatbelt.

Police in the town of Paw Paw, Michigan, said the unidentified man told them "it was quite a ride", but complained only that he had spilled his soda.

The truck reached speeds of 50mph (80km/h) as it drove down the Red Arrow Highway.

After several miles the driver pulled over at the depot of a trucking company where police then told him about the man on his front end.

He refused to believe there was a man in a wheelchair stuck to the front of his truck until he saw it for himself, police said.


I like the guy's humour. I suppose you have to have that kinda trait if you are only 21 and already confined to a wheelchair.

The poor thing.

But damn. It must've been the most exciting and terrifying moment in his life. But can you imagine what a great party story it makes?

small gawai gathering

On Saturday night, Constance (very last minute) invited me and some others over to her house for Gawai. What else are friends for? If not to forget and just invite people over at last minute, right? :P

Our host, the one providing all the tuak, Con! And me. My flash blinded her a bit. Haha. I've known this girl since Primary 6, when I moved schools. And since then, she's been my classmate up till Form 5.

with the host

And these are the other three that I managed to drag along with me. Halim, Mimin, and Wani.

atmosphere

Not forgetting this guy either. Yeah, you know this is the best shot I got? Cos trying to take a picture with Mark is like trying to take a picture with Angelina Jolie's kid, Maddox. The one who's got a penchant for making faces at the paparazzi.

goofball

This is me with Mimin and her kissyface. Bleh. She's so cute, ain't she?

kissyface

Didn't manage to take any pictures with Wani... so I'm just posting this one up instead. Hahahaa. Was trying to spice up the picture a bit so I gave them crowns... I know it sucks. And I'm sure you're wondering why Mimin got the smaller crown but I don't know either. Maybe you should ask her why... Wani paid off the prop lady. But I'm not one to start rumours..

crowned

What happened? We drank tuak (some of us only lah), gossiped, took pictures, ate a lot of that smelly fish thing, and told each other ghost stories. Kesian Halim! Cos he came over with his motorbike, alone. So after telling the ghost stories, he had some ghosts following him home. And the way back is kinda dark and dim. The streetlights along the way back to his house aren't that bright. Hahaha. Halim actually admitted that on his way back, he drove faster than usual to try get home as quick as he could.

Luckily he didn't live that far off.

Okay, now for some really lame and goofy pictures! Before I proceed, I would like to say that I'm very sorry, Halim.

I started wandering around Con's place and started picking up hats and stuff to play with. Everyone else joined in. I know it's very lame editing and it's not even very funny!

jungle freaks

Con took the pictures. I really had NO idea how to pose. -_-"

headhunters

I fail at posing for pictures.






Then Halim started being a bad guest.

Con is a good host.

There was a spear in the corner of the room.

So...





finnish him

And you know what?? There really was a loud booming voice that everyone in the room heard that went, FINNISH HIM!!!






And this is what happened to Halim after Con finnished him...






finnish

And then after that, we heard the loud booming voice go FLAWLESS VICTORY!!

Needless to say, Con was overjoyed.

real pontianak video

WARNING: The following post may contain materials that would cause sleepless nights, nightmares, a degrading night life, and lower suicide rates. Do not proceed with this blog entry if you are easily scared. But do watch it at night. It's more fun that way. But seriously, this is a real video. Please DO proceed with caution.

The video was also taken sideways. (Don't blame me.) So watch it with your head tilted to your right.



This video was taken by my cousin's uncle. The story behind it goes a little like this:

My uncle is in the special ops and they were operating in Tawau. One night, he and nine other guys were on their way to a small village. It was dark. They came to a bridge where they saw and heard a lady that was standing at the top of the bridge, sobbing. She was wearing a white dress.

They way she sobbed was not human. She was a pontianak. So, this group of guys all whipped out their mobile phones and started either taking videos or pictures of this creature with their phone cameras.

After awhile, the creature started flying about in an attempt to attack them. This was when they decided to stop taking videos and run for it. Even when you're in the special ops, you have nothing against the supernatural.

It was rumoured that at that same bridge, an Indonesian lady had jumped and killed herself and her unborn baby. She came back that night to look for her unborn child.

A pontianak is what is known to Malaysian folklore or legend as a female vampire. They are usually spawned when they happen to die with an unborn child. It happens when they are killed, they they commit suicide, or just die naturally; and then later return as pontianaks to try find their unborn child but if they cannot do that, they will instead attempt to steal someone else's.
