what to believe when everyone says one thing about a person but the person itself says another thing?

how much do i know to know which side to take or which side of the story is true?

what about when everyone else relates that particular situation to a whole different scenario?

how different is the scenario? is it just a stereotype? or am i the only one who thinks that others are stereotyping?

i dont know.

i dont know what to believe. what to do. what is my stand. i dont know. im shaken.
god has an interesting way of throwing us out course when we think that all is going well and smooth.

my direction is shaken. what i was so sure about. now its in disillusion.

questions are answered with 'no way'. why is answered with 'no'.

what is up next? i dont know. where does this lead me to? i dont know too. but what if it isnt what i thought for sure it would be?

ego and emo comes in?

i dont know. someone somehow talk to me? my thoughts are so unorganized.

conflicts exists as they are. resolving takes too much effort. thus making it left aside to erode into deeper conflict.

what else is there to do when all is said and done?

all that’s left is to look up to a higher power and authority and surrender.

girly days with bad bad bad stomach cramps are not fun at all.



At least not when there are 1001 things to do.

U turn : A new life

After weeks and weeks of dedicated practices by the drama team. The final showdown is up.



COMING THIS MONDAY. 30TH MARCH. 6.30PM. UTAR SOUTH LOBBY.



Pray. Come. Enjoy.


Fresh prawns, Pasta and Steak



Me and dar wanted to go for prawn fishing in Mahkota Cheras. The last i heard, the price was RM 30 ++ for 3 hours given one rod and some prawn food. There are even lobsters in the tank where they put prawns in. Whatever caught belongs to you. They even provide barbeque pits and butter to BBQ the prawns. Apparently it taste awesome.



However, when we went there, the place was packed!!! maybe because it was a sunday afternoon. It was an interesting sight thought. there is an aquarium like tank build right in the middle of the shop, with people sitting along the sides to fish. Looked a little like a bar top with the aquarium as the center. haha. We stayed for a while to have a look. Not many people caught prawns. Those seasoned and skillful ones caught quite a number, averagely one prawn every 5 mins? That’s quite pro according what we observed.

In the end, we went to a Western restaurant just at the next row. Beautiful interior deco with the tables all set. The music played were samba-ish. Real romantic place. =)

Dar ordered tiger prawns with butter for us, a rib eye for himself, and a mushroom pasta for me.

Wet socks and shoes


Image022



Uni friends adds flavors to the memories of life. Just like how 2 years back, sherine, me, joel, kahfai and dihhaw had the brilliant idea to go to Balakong for KFC. All went well until it started pouring cats and dogs and we were without umbrellas!!


The 5 of us waited a whooping 1 and a half to 2 hours under the made shift container turned into fruit stall with barely half a foot of coverage on our heads. To make things worse, U41 rapid bus that we were suppose to took super duper long to arrive. The rain makes transportation turn into tortoise mode.


We waited and waited. squat. stand. squat. stand. haha. Thank god we somehow got home sometime much later in the night. =) Poor kahfai was already down with slight sore throat before the dinner trip, after that the fever attacked him right away. but we had fun ya =P


This which leads to another wet trip. 3 pairs of wet shoes and 1 pair of wet slippers that dried up in no time. Ever since shifting to a different condo, there is a distance to walk from my place to uni. Another 10 mins more of walk as compared to just crossing one road previously. During sunny days, its a joy. But like that day when it was raining. haha. its an experience again.


Me and sherine left 30 mins early to avoid the rain. but it didnt quite avail throughout. We were caught in the heavy downpour just one shoplot distance away from uni. haha.


As we reached church, my immediate reaction was to remove the soaking wet shoes and socks! brrrr. it was cold. But no fear, there was kah fai and wendy who joined the kaki ayam gang!

Just Soya - Sungai Long

Some time back, I went to Just Soya in Sungai Long for a restaurant review.


18032009340

18032009344 18032009343


Its a Soya concept restaurant where almost everything served contains Soya.


18032009326

Range of soya drinks

18032009332

Ocha Soya Curd (green tea tau fu fa)

18032009335

Satay beef with soy rice & ham and egg soy omelette


Overall rating :


Food : 6.5/10


(the concept is interesting but some dishes still has to improve on the taste, either on the bland side or a little heavy with seasoning)


Ambience : 8/10


(beautiful set up, very comfortable feeling. The only downside is, when we were there, a rubbish truck happened to park outside, the stench blew our heads off way till the restaurant worker sprayed Lysol. Pooh)


Service : 5/10


(Some food were not available. the funniest part was the worker was sleeping on the table when we first arrived. we even had enough time to snap a close up shot of her leaning on the table sleeping face.)


Price : Around RM 6 – RM 10 per person inclusive of a meal and drinks.


Recommended?


Yup. Especially for health freaks. After all, its a healthy shop at a reasonable price. 5 of us with 5 main dishes and drinks cost RM 40++ in total. Worth a try. Something different

blaarrggh.

There’s the flu bug again. Oh dear. Somehow the flu bug likes me a lot. Sniff sniff. The interesting part of flu and me is that, 3 sneezes are normal. but many rounds of 3 sneezes shows that the flu bug is back. more than 3 sneezes also shows that the flu bug is happily having the victory. oh dear. I call myself my own doctor. =P

 

 

Freeze Up One Level?



Now THIS is way cool man! Its just like freeze but instead of standing and posing. its a couple of dance routine put together.



Doesn’t it just give you the feeling of wanting to jump in and join the fun? SO HAPPENING la.

Reversal?

For many people, tertiary education is to find their leadership qualities.

 

Somehow for me, university life has taught me how to take a step back. Be less controlling. And let others lead sometimes too.

 

Just so the opposite. I became tamer if i can say so.

Teenage crushes

(source : pwlsklimunguardedmoments.blogspot.com)



Teenage crushes. *sighs of contentment?* *self-giggles*



Looking through photos, I remember him. Once labeled “Black Santa” because his teeth were so white in contrast to his dark skin. Those were the days of counting when he had physical education, and trying to get the seat right next to the window overlooking the field so that i could get a glimpse of him.



There’s another crush. I knew that he was dating a girl 2 years older than him, i think? haha. the silly things i did to try to be noticed. The attempts at squinting my eyes just to take off the horrendous plastic specs i had, the butterfly-fluttering-in-stomach non stop feeling when he was just a few steps distance away.



Teenage crushes. *laughs at self*. What a silly girl i was.

rain rain go away

(source : blurboydih.blogspot.com)



I was wearing a neat white formal top for a photo taking session. But as i stepped out from the university, rain drops were pitty – pattying. Oh dear, oh no. I better run fast enough to reach home without getting wet. Or else, i’ll be drenched and most dreaded – TRANSPARENT. (maybe semi, since i wore a tube under)



But oh dear. i reached home just like what you could have guessed. Wet, drenched and semi transparent. Boo. but then again. what beats a warm shower right after a drenched day?
