What Are You Looking At?! *Glares*

Stayed over at Phoebe's, and went for dinner at Sushi King (The Mines) with the entire family, including June Yi Yi.

(Three guys enter the restaurant)

Me: (Why is that grey-shirt guy looking this way? I think he's looking at Phoebe...)

Me: (whispers to Phoebe) I think that guy over there is looking at you.

Phoebe: Which one? (eyes sparkle with utmost interest..!)
Me: Don't look okay, the third one from the left, in that plain grey shirt.

Phoebe: Lol. I can't look now right... Maybe looking at you leh?

Me: NO. It's not me alright. Fine. Just see later.

(2 seconds later...)

Francine: Phoebe! That guy is looking at you!

Me: Hah! Omigosh... so I'm not the only one...

Phoebe: (gushes) What....

Me: Okay. Here's a dare. Look at them and wink!

Phoebe: Haha.. how bout flipping my hair? (demonstrates)

Me: Whatever. As long as you wink. Do it..!!

Phoebe: (laughs) What.. NOOoooOO...

(5 minutes later. All THREE of them start whispering and chuckle amongst themselves)

Phoebe: Why are they laughing at me?

Me: I don't think they're laughing AT you, Phoebe... You know when girls drool over hot guys, they start blushing and giggling? Yeah something like that..

Phoebe: Oh wow...

Me: Okay here's another dare, since you refused the first one. Look at them and GLARE! like the what-are-you-looking-at glare... haha.. (chews the sushi)

Phoebe: LOL... Glare..? (hesitates) no la no la...

Me: Or do you want me to glare for you? hehe...

Phoebe: haha okay okay...

(I didn't glare la alright)

Francine: Eh... Just now Iain said, he heard those guys talking in mandarin... they said, "that girl over there very hot. which one? neh the dark shirt one.."

Phoebe: We're both in dark shirts!!!

Francine: yeah.. and then they said, "neh the one with the hair tied up. she has a nice body shape!"

Me: haha.. Phoebe it's you alright... you're the one with the hair tied up!

Phoebe: (laughs)

(After the dinner, exiting the restaurant)

Me: (goes to my aunt) Ji Kim, just now you know the three guys over there, they were looking at Phoe-

Ji Kim: I know!!! I saw also!!!

Me: what?! you did? LOL!!

Ji Kim: I saw them looking in our direction.. At first, I thought who they were looking at. When they looked at me, I glared at them!!!

Me: haha.. Phoebe, Ji Kim saw it too..

Phoebe: What?... (laughs)

Ji Kim: Eh, Jay... Just now in the restaurant got three guys going after your daughter.. haha...

(the three guys exit the restaurant too...)

Phoebe: Gosh.. Joy..... they're so... short!!!

Me: Haha.. oh yeah hor... goodness!!

Phoebe: Ya lar.. Just now not that obvious. and they're not hot..

Me: haha yea.. at least the last one still okay...

Phoebe: Oh my goodness...

Conclusion: Phoebe's hotness draws every men's attention. She gives off a distinct and strong electric charm that keeps guys drooling.

btw,

I ♥ Sushi!!!

Jasper Jasper Jasper....

tEEhEE!!!

Jasper's a dog la ok.. Don't really know why I'm blogging about him, but yeah...

Basically he's a breed of COCKer Spaniel and Dachshund (yes, Phoebe, it's FORMERLY called a Dachshund, not "sausage dog" ok.. got it off the wikipedia. haha..)

He's jet-black fur makes him so not photogenic. I try to take pictures of him, and all you can see is a black figure... Talk about the cons of being black.. Haha.. (no offence la k..)

Oh well, that bugger bites a lot, and I do not like it at all... Even though Phoebe claims it doesn't hurt, I'm not interested in finding out either.

Anyways, he eats a lot. Uncle Jay calls him obese. HAHA! He's like this bony dog, with a big belly. Lol...

He's cute la.. was cute, when he was much smaller and tinier. (I actually freaked out when he started chasing me around. LOL!) but you cant really see much of his face cos he's... covered with black fur. yeah... haha...

So yeah. Here's a picture of him...

In Loving Memory of Uncle Robin

“Something happened to Ji Ku (uncle Robin). I can’t tell you. Papa will,” my mom said, her tone serious and heavy.

You know how we always take things for granted, and never miss them till they’re gone? Yeah, it’s exactly like that. I guess it’s true that people only appreciate something when they’re gone.

When I went to the hospital, having only a vague idea of what’s happening, I thought things were going to be okay. When my dad said, “Can you hurry up? This might be the last time you get to see your uncle,” I thought he was purely exaggerating. You know how parents are right, exaggerating things to make the situation seem grimly severe.

As I took those steps into the room, my aunt was there sobbing, her face was reddish and wet. Even then I thought she was simply emotional because it was her own beloved husband with a fourth stage lung cancer. I guess I was wrong, so very wrong.

My uncle was unconscious when we arrived, to me, he was simply resting. When my dad covered my uncle with the blanket, he only pushed it down, signalling that it was too hot for him.

Half an hour later, he started moaning, we assumed he was just dreaming. But the moaning never lessened, instead it intensified and grew more frustrated. The nurses came in, giving him some sort of painkillers, he slowly relaxed and started snoring.

The scene was simply hideous. Never in my life have I saw such a skinny and withered man, struggling to breathe and clinging on to survival. When I drew closer, his cloudy eyes were fixed on the ceiling, his cheekbones showing so clearly and visibly from his skin. His mouth was open, desperately gasping for breath. A few relatives started to come, showing their support. Ah Mei Ko Bo Cho came and prayed for Ji Ku.

After that, he started to stop breathing every few seconds, and my dad told my aunt that this is sign that he’s going to go soon. Upon hearing those words, my aunt burst into tears. In my mind, I wished my dad hadn’t said that, for some reason I believe that these kind of things are best left unsaid. My aunt grabbed my tightly and cried. I initially told myself that I wouldn’t cry, but tears came streaming out that very moment.

I just couldn’t handle all that pressure in there and spent most of that time sitting outside letting my tears dry up.

Shortly after that, Phoebe and Aaron came with Ah Kim. “It’s no good,” I whispered to them as we walked back into the room.

Even as I sat in front of him, I believed that he was going to get better. I prayed that God would somehow work a miracle and bring him back into our lives. I just couldn’t accept the fact that God would take his life away just like that at the age of 45.

But as the minutes passed so painfully, things didn’t seem to go so well. With dwindling hope, I forced myself to believe things were gonna be just fine. Things seemed to be going well at first, because when he “snored”, my aunt said that was a good sign. But he started sweating, and that wasn’t good at all. Somehow, he just stopped breathing. My aunt whispered “goodbye, see you in heaven” and hugged Phoebe.

I didn’t even get to talk to him, it had been weeks since we last talked, and now he’s simply gone.

Surprisingly, when he left, I felt much better. It didn’t hurt anymore. Perhaps cos he’s now released from his pain and suffering.

I never got to apologise for what I felt I should’ve, I never got to know him personally. Uncle Robin left too soon.

All this while, he was just my uncle who was exceedingly generous. Paying for my cousins from UK to come down, treating us to expensive dinners and hotels and simply being there for us. We've been so blessed to have him in our lives, but somehow nothing lasts forever. It's too late now to hold on dearly to this very wonderful blessing.

It’s my greatest regret that I never showed any compassion or care for him. I tried doing a DVD once with all our family photos inside, and I never got to finish it. Phoebe and I wanted to do a scrapbook for him too, but I guess now I know that procrastination is never a good thing.

Never once have I truly appreciated him, everything he did, I took it all for granted. He loved us all so much, so very much. But have we showed him the same compassion and love that he deserved?

After all of that, Aaron and I (assisted by Phoebe and Francine) hurriedly did a video of him, all the memories we ever had to be played out at the memorial.

We cried, our hearts were broken. People kept asking “why him?”, because he was the most caring and loving person we’ve ever known. But that wasn’t my question. I was wondering “why now?”. People have to go eventually, it’s simply a matter of time.

The next I know, I might be the one lying dead on that bed. Time flies.

I’m gonna miss him, most definitely. My uncle organised a trip for us to go to Pangkor Laut, because he said that we’d love it. We’re still going there in December because it’s what he would’ve wanted. But without him, things are never going to be the same.

There were times when I got really angry and easily aggravated. I doubted the Lord so much, and I questioned “someone” whether heaven would be that perfect. I just couldn’t stand it anymore. But I realize now that it’s not about me.
I do hope my aunt will pull through this and find joy in the Lord once more.

I miss him. We all do.

The Lord works in mysterious ways, we just have to believe.

God bless.






“There are no mistakes, no coincidences.
All events are blessings given to us to learn from”


PS: The video of uncle Robin that was played out at the memorial will be posted soon.

Qi Qushairi Smokes?

I was hunting for a spy gadget (voice changer, if you must know) at E@Curve. Soon I gave up hope and went out the entrance with my brother tagging along.

At the entrance, on my left, was a guy who looked like Qi Qushairi (that guy from Blogger Boy, 8TV and host of USA Field Trip). I took another quick glance to make sure it was him, he had the exact same long and curly hair. He looked up at me and I was like "crap, he smokes???"

Yeah, he was smoking alright. I'm not saying it's definitely him. I don't wanna just say with absolute confidence that it was him, I might be wrong. I could've taken a picture as evidence but he would've probably gotten his attorney to sue me or something. Lol. Besides the fact that he appears much more... fleshier and not that skinny (in fact I think he actually had a 'meaty' chest) , he looked EXACTLY like Qi Qushairi. So yeah, I'm pretty positive that was him smoking in the corner.

Sighs.

I'm not sure of anyone else knows already. It's not wrong to smoke, based on the worldly 'rules'. But it'd be wrong to harm your own body like that.

Shouldn't people like that know better than to give off bad influence?

Famous celebrities like Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart are pretty much the same, having bad addictions..

Sometimes being famous and popular, people expect more of you.. Aih.. so disappointing la..

Oh well, I hope he stops. =D

<3>

Another Saturday... ZZzz..

Woke up this morning felt really sick. Forced myself to get outta bed and dragged myself downstairs to find an empty living room. No one was awake yet. Great.

Some aunties came over and brought my grandma to see the doctor. The entire family was sick. Have no idea what it is but spreads just like H1N1. The next thing I knew, I was fast asleep on the sofa and woke up around 2.30pm.

Took a quick bath and went to church to play for the ladies meeting.

***

Dinner..? IKEA! Yeah I really miss the food there. Had meatballs again. ♥ d gravy!!!

Wanted to buy this spy gadget, called a voice changer.. looks real cool!!! but I went all over Ikano and they didnt have it. Boooo....

They didn't even have a video game store.. I'm practically dying for the Sims 3 right now.. haha.

Francine wanted to go to Padini Concept Store and got me to tag along.. *ZZzz*

Well I just tried to get into my shopping mood (it's so frustrating when u can't find what you know you wanna buy...) and saw this (kinda) nice long shirt.. or whatever you call it. 129 bucks!!! This is crazy man.. We're not some bank okay...




RM129 for this!!! Now u tell me if it's worth it. But I've always wanted one of these... =(

So yeah. All I got was a book called 'Marked' in Popular. It was basically about vampires.. d storyline sounded nice so I jz grabbed it anyway. Cost me 29.90 bucks. Hopefully it was worth it la.

When I went home I found out (online) that the voice changer I was walking around for.. can be found at the Curve..!!! GAH!!! Goodness.... I was like just ONE block away from it..!!!

Oh well.


***

I really wanna get flats.. or mayb converse... it kinda gets tiring and your feet actually feels really sore after walking around a shopping mall on a pair of heels...

Yeah I might actually look shorter and fatter.. bigger thighs.. my ass might actually look wider.. but.. yeah I just need shoes - proper shoes right now..!!! SOS..!!!

Btw dont say/think I'm not how I describe myself.. It's all about the angle... If you shoot from a certain angle, u actually look much better.. hehehe.. *winks*

***

It sucks when youre dying to lose weight. But you dont seem to lose anything but your energy. Havent been to the gym for days now. Probably cos I lost all that motivation.. =(

It really kills me when I see all those super slim and tall girls strutting down the hallway, prompting second glances from men as they flutter their ultra-long lashes [my eyelashes are really short.. ='( ].. BOOoo!!!

Yeah I do acknowledge the fact that we're all different individuals who are uniquely special. Yeah, it's cliched. But I guess it's true.

But STILL.. that fact doesnt seem to comfort me at all.. GAH!!

Well I'm just crapping here outta boredom.. hehe.
Got church tomorrow.

Ciao.

Pasar Malam meh??

Yesterday was hell..
We were pretty much screwed up prefects 4 dat day.. =(

11.ooam: i felt my fever rising..
11.30am: went into the locker room.. fell fast asleep in one of the rooms with my blazer draped over me.. felt so much warmer.. =)
12.10pm: heard some honking sounds outside.. people were shouting. i ignored the noise I drifted back to sleep.
12.25pm: the noise worsened. i stirred. i think i heard someone calling my name. but yeah, i slept back.
12.50pm: ok. this is starting to piss me off. i realised i had Panadols in my bag (swt.. =.=), took d pills n went 2 c wad was happening.
12.52am: it was raining. cars were honking inside n outside d skul compound. justin, azhar, megat, oscar n many other prefects were at the gate.

The story:
Because of SPM, the F5s were allowed to leave early at 1pm.
First was Kar Hoe, he wanted to leave earlier than dat, justin stopped him. he 'attacked' justin with his car because justin wouldnt let him leave. (of course, a fight broke out..)

An aunty brought 10 students out of the skul and the prefects tried 2 stop her la.. justin told her to fill in the form if she wants to leave early. according to him, he compromised a lot because she wasnt even supposed to bring other ppl's children back.

but oh well.. i thot she jz embarrassed the chinese race man.. she was going like, 'wo bu zhi dao! wo bu zhi dao! ni bang wo na na ge form la!!'.. gudness..!!
then her daughter came down shouting n arguing summore.. like pasar malam like dat.
n bcz she was blocking the gate, the cars behind her started honking like crazy.. it was like some honking ramapage. goodness!!!

this is a school la.. and they were totally ruining the peace. ALL the teachers were having meeting so we were practically on our own. Pn Azlina only came out during the last 15 mins or so..

the aunty was scolding them, shen jing bing! (crazy..) n Oscar got so fed up he threw the umbrella onto the ground..

what a day..

why are the parents so uncooperative? rules are rules. there are procedures you have to follow. it's like these people have no sense of awareness of protocols etc..

and if they disagree they gotta at least TALK it out.. not shouting n arguing and challenging the prefects rite.. wads wrong with them?!!

sigh.

scarlet out!

Anyway, while I was there, not only did I meet their new puppy, Jasper (shouldn't they call it Duke, since the other dog is Duchess?) I also saw SPONGEBOB, on a banana... haha. I fell in love with it instantly.. =)

GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra

GI Joe is so far the coolest movie I've watched since Transformers! I only got to watch it NOW, cos I had exams.. ugh.

The gadgets are extremely complicated, slick and powerful!!! I think the movie could even have outdid Transformers. For those of you love action-packed movies, you can't miss this one, seriously!!!
