*~ Great, It Got Me Again ~*

I was supposed to meet him in his car at the basement but, when i reached there, i could only see him chatting with another woman. My heart was beating so fast. I walked quickly towards the car. Before i could have a better look, a woman got down from the car and looked at me with this most evil smile ever. She was so beautiful and elegant. Competitor was the word that popped into my mind at that moment.

She left without saying anything. I got into the car, looked at him, uttered not a single word, gave him a slap and cried. But the slap was not a hurtful one as i was too sad and losing my strength. I could not do it. He started to explain on what was going on. Yes, the girl loved him and she was trying hard to get him but he only has me in his heart. I was still in a shock and i could not accept what had just happened. I needed some time.

What i fear of the most is beautiful ladies, whom i can't compared myself with, are forever better than me in every single way even when it comes to love and relationship. They are more compatible with the one i love. And i am going to lose my loved one to any of the ladies.

Damn!!! The dream got me!!! It had what i am afraid of in it!!! It took me quite a long time to realise what happened in the dream again before i got out from bed. The more i recalled, the more i got upset. Even though it was a dream, it was so darn real! It had never been this real. However, at least, this dream ended quite good as in he came back to look for me and tell me all those stuffs. Previously, whenever i had this kind of dreams, they never ever ended in any better way.

P/S: The woman's name was Labuna. What a name... =_="

~* Sinful Dinner *~

So, where were you during the Earth Hour? I was at TGIF Sunway Pyramid having candlelight dinner with Mr. [R] rather than getting for myself a cup of Starbucks.



Knowing that the food would come in big portion, we decided to order only one set of the two-course meal.

Appetiser: Fried Mac and Cheese.
The tasted reminded me of Burger King Mozzarella Sticks.



Entree: Cajun shrimp and chicken pasta.

This is as cheesy as the appetiser. Like Mr. [R] said, "It is like cheese mania!" Also, we totally love the shrimps. Fresh, juicy and sweet!


Then we added:
Dessert Minis: Chocolate Orea Mint Crunch, Mocha Latte and Snickers Treat.
Actually, we only ordered two except for Mocha Latte but the waiter had made a mistake and he just gave the third one to us for free.


We watched Confessions of A Shopaholic. It is another must-watch movie. The cinema was fulled and laughters were everywhere!

*~ Krispy Kreme ~*

But the best thing is, Krispy Kreme is opening soon! Yahoooooo! Last time i thought that i need to travel to another country just to eat that! I don't think so anymore. Hehehe~

~* Earth Hour *~

What will you be doing during the Earth Hour this coming Saturday? I am excited about it without any concrete reason. I have signed up with the Earth Hour Malaysia and i just received an email from it telling me there are 5 more days to go! Below is the suggestions by Earth Hour Malaysia on what you can do during the Earth Hour:


1. Gather family & friends for a night picnic
2. Dine in one of the many Earth Hour participating restaurants by candlelight
3. Organise a family night playing board games
4. Throw an Earth Hour street party with your neighbours
5. Arrange a house party lit by torches
6. Take the dog for a night walk
7. Hand write a letter to loved one by lantern
8. Sit in the dark and share stories
9. Read a book using a book light
10. Share a romantic night in with your loved one


In conjunction with Earth Hour, there are several events being held. As Kuala Lumpur is concerned, you can head to Starhill to have candlelight dinner at Shook and there will be performance waiting for you.

For Starbucks lovers, you can head to any Starbucks and purchase anything with 20% discount off during Earth Hour. Yes, during Earth Hour alone and it is only valid for dine-in. A cup of Starbucks coffee after dinner? Sounds great. I can't wait to grab my own Starbucks drink during the Earth Hour. Chocolate Frappuccino with Java Chips. Yum yum...

*~ The Silent Killer ~*

I am so exhausted to the extent that i am about to get sick! My body is feeling so sore. My mind is feeling so heavy. Just to work on my assignments.

April is a month at hell to me with three assignments to be passed at the beginning of the month, two midterm papers in the middle of the month and another two assignments at the end of the month. As regards to the first three assignments, i am glad that my progress is very well and i can finish all ahead of time after i have really worked so hard on them.

Up to date, i have sacrificed most of my sleeping hours, even on the days that i don't need to attend classes. I have also forgone the days when i can actually shop! I can't recall when was the last time i did my shopping properly. Let's look at those results later on to see if they are worth those sacrifices.

Yea, i am doing four subjects when others are doing either two or three subjects? Why? Because i just don't have the choice. Don't ask me why again? It is difficult to be explained here.

Nothing to be watched on television today until i watch Asian Food Channel (AFC). While i was watching Sugar by Anna Olson, words like "glucose", "diabetes", and "fattening"just popped into my mind. There was this recipe called that involved about the whole jar of peanut butter.

Then, she added some cream cheese into it before mixing together with slices of banana that was already cooked with syrup and cinnamon. After that, she put some of it in between two slices of cookies and ate. The amount that she put could be used for few slices of breads! I am not kidding! Can you imagine how sweet and fattening it was?

I watched the complete episode of Chef At Home today for the very first time. I have learnt to peel and get the whole chunk of meat from the lobsters and how to know if they are over cooked or not. It is quite impossible to cook lobsters in Malaysia. They are not cheap! I rather have crabs!

I also learn how to make a chocolate dessert whereby it is made of three types of chocolates: dark chocolate, milk chocolate and white chocolate. As easy as ABC. Hehe~ I am wondering when i can make it. I start to adore Michael Smith!

PS: Before the sale ends, it is better for me to go for it first! That will be this coming weekends!

~* Words of Wisdom *~

I bet there are some of you who had come across Bill Gates's philosophy before and some of you have not. For those who did, let me help you to refresh your mind and those who have not, enjoy reading it:


Rule 1:
Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2:
The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3:
You will not make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4:
If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5:
Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6:
If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7:
Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8:
Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.

Rule 9:
Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10:
Television is not real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11:
Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.


Thank to my cousin brother who mentioned about this to me long time ago that his friend actually printed out the philosophy, pasted on the wall and learned (hopefully, he is still learning) from it. Perhaps, you might want to do the same.

I am leaving college life in about a year time. Better be even prepared for the real world.

*~ She's A Teacher ~*

I never bother reading news on MSN. But today, i did. Just because of her. She got my attention.

Shiny black hair.
Flawless skin.
Look how perfect her nose, lips and eyes are!

Most of all, she is a teacher.

So, can you imagine those school boys in the future? Being taught by this beautiful lady. At the same time, she will be hated by other school girls. The number of boys absent from school will decrease. The number of girls absent, on the other hand, will increase.

She is not the only one. There will be more beautiful teachers!



The most important is that they are robots!

*~ Personality Quiz ~*

I was tagged by Asha in Facebook for doing a personality quiz.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education:

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.


EVERYTHING IS SO TRUE except that i never view myself as a true romantic, or should i say i don't even know if i were one.

BBQ Chicken Salad
RM 6.00

However, i think it would be better if they were able to serve the food hot! I just hope that the cheese dough balls were hot with all the cheese melting inside them. I just hope the chicken steak with pasta was hot too! Too bad they were not.

Before dinner, we actually watched Watchmen. A nice 2.5 hours movie. Be prepared. Pee before you watch the movie. :D

*~ Which One Do You Prefer? ~*

Can someone enlighten me for once more? I just don't understand at all.

Now, we have this issue of people are going against the idea of teaching Mathematics and Science in English. Why not? Because the teachers are struggling.

Let's look at this way. Many decades ago, the medium for teaching used here was mostly English. Then, when the decision of changing the medium back to Malay language, which is also known as bahasa Malaysia now, had forced many of the teachers, whether they were Malays or not, to cope with it. Eventually, they did! Please don't forget that they struggled too.

So, what is the big fuss now? Why can't the teachers cope with this issue of teaching both Mathematics and Science in English until they had to cause unwanted incidents on this Saturday afternoon? Who is supposed to get blamed now? The one who decided to change the teaching medium to English few years back? The one who decided to change it from English to Malay few decades ago? Or the people themselves who can't cope with the change?

Yes, i am one of those students from the time when Mathematics and Science were still being taught in Malay language. And, i have no issue of speaking in English now even though not fluently. However, the idea of teaching those subjects in English now is just benefiting the students further.

Come on. Are the teachers teaching for the students' sake or for themselves? Isn't that whatever the education ministry does is for the good of the students? It is not that the education ministry never provides extra trainings for the teachers who are teaching those subjects in English. Who know that they do not really try hard to cope with it?

I know. At the end of the day, who am i to say about all these when i am not even in the teachers's shoe? I just ponder, may i?

~* Unbelievable Words of Mine *~

When i was daydreaming in the class this morning, my lecturer pointed at me out of sudden and asked, "What do you want to do?"

My heart was beating fast and i had andrenaline rush. It took me awhile before i answered softly, "Stop studying."

Looking worried and shocked, he further asked, "No, no, what do you want in life?" For once more, it took me awhile before i answered him softly with a proper and better answer. Sigh.

Stop studying. After saying that, even myself was in a shock. Did i just utter those words? Is that what i really want now?

I don't think so and i have already completed 2/3 of the course. But i can tell you that i am seriously exhausted with my college life now. This is just the second week of the semester! Gosh!

No matter how tough it is, i am still going to continue. Don't waste the time that i have spent. Don't waste the effort that i have put. Don't waste the money that i obtained with all my hardwork.

By the way, i am totally in love with these two love songs:
1. Beyonce - Halo
2. Neyo - Mad

*Melting*

*~ Fattening Milo ~*

"Minum Milo anda jadi sihat dan kuat" but it is no longer this way. Instead, you should sing, "Minum Milo anda jadi sihat dan gemuk". Yes, it is the Milo that we use to drink since we were kids! Even until now, i am still having a cup of Milo with oats whenever i am having classes in the morning.

So happened that i used Milo as an example during a class discussion and it reminded my lecturer about this: The commodity price for cocoa fluctuates. Thus, Malaysia is using palm oil in manufacturing Milo powder since palm oil is cheaper and able to taste like cocoa after processing it. He even dared me to search for more information on it via Google. I did try. Even though not much information could be found but at least there were people discussing about it.

How far all these are true? So, do people get fatter by consuming Milo? More palm oil than cocoa in Milo. For those who are dieting, are you still going to drink Milo? After so many years of consuming Milo, does it really affecting us now with its palm oil formula? Please enlighten me.

I told my mum about this and instantly she said, "Then, let's change to Horlicks!"

*Searching for information on Horlicks*

It is claimed that Horlicks promotes sleep when consumed at bedtime. What a good news for those who are experiencing insomnia.

*~ I Want Nasi Babi Bermadu! ~*

It is midnight now and i am getting a little bit hungry. It is so good if i can have this nasi babi. Wong Kok Char Chan Teng's honey pork fillet rice with Shanghai style vegetable.




And, of course, this drink! Again, i forget its full name but i know it has to do with dragon fruit. Yummylicious!
