A really weird thing happened on Sunday. I went to penang with some 200+ bucks in hand. At the end of the day, when i got back home and checked my wallet, all i have left is RM3. Hmmm? What just happened? Ada toyol ke kat penang? Hmmm.... i'm still confused... or am i pretending to be confused? Errrrr....

Me in the lab on Saturday??? Weird as it may seem... but it's happening!! Hehe.. off for a game of squash... Tmrw, 2nd swimming lesson! Yeayy! When i can swim, i can try all the great, adventurous looking slides in Sunway Lagoon's Wet Park... ehehee.... when i get to go there la.. :)

Okie.. have a nice weekend peeps!

Today is such a wonderful day... terrifically wonderful, if i may say; and i have every reason to be very happy about myself and everything that's going on around me (except SPR)... even if my research is still not quite progressing.. :p Hehe... whatever it is.. i'm just so happy today!

First reason to be happy today.. :) (you'd hafta pardon me for smiling frm ear to ear even as i'm typing.. hehe.. i just cant help feeling good today!) Yeah.. 1st reason i'm happy today... is because my friends are happy. Aiza called yesterday and told me about her love life which is going very well. Nura just came back from 'site seeing' with dearest hubby. Another friend is having a good time with darling bf in ipoh today... oh.. and i saw her smile today after a long time of not seeing her do that... Its good to know that my friends are having a good time, and a good relationship with the man of their dreams. :) To my single friends, sabar.. love comes when you least expect it. Enjoy your single life to the fullest while you still can!

2nd reason... Dan called me early this morning. :D How i missed his voice.. and him!! It didnt just stop at the phone call.. he was online today and we had a good chat, after quite some time of not doing so. He offered me something for my birthday... something i want pretty badly... He said he'll get it for me because i want it so much, and he wants to make me happy... Hmm.. so touched.. and flattered. What did i do in my past life (huh?) to deserve such a wonderful significant other? (Yeah.. you ppl can stop making that throwing up noise and funny faces now... :p ) But then.. i'm turning down the offer because the thing is pretty pricey and i dont want him to spend too much on me.. (isk... baiknya girlfren! LOL!!)

3rd reason to be happy... called ips today and they're issuing my new contract soon... phew!~ Hopefully i'll get continuous monthly allowance.. Tolongla...! :)

Hmm.. hehe.. happy..happy..happy... happy... happy.... (geez.. i sound like the Titus ad!)
Oh yeah.. i did this 'Satisfaction Test' on emode when i was sleepy this afternoon... and hey... look at how i scored! :D

**********************************************************************************************
The Relationship Satisfaction Test
Congratulations ? when it comes to your relationship, you are one satisfied customer! It looks like the two of you go together like peas 'n' carrots ... green eggs 'n' ham ... Romeo and Juliet. Your couplehood is pretty much as good as it gets, and we salute you. (Just wipe that smug smile off your face, okay?) But before you run your victory lap, remember that even the best relationships need work to stay in peak condition. It takes constant effort to maintain a good level of communication, keep your goals and hopes in sync (not the boy band ...), and make sure you settle conflicts before they get out of hand. And all that labor shouldn't be one-sided ? both you and your partner need to be committed to putting serious time and energy into making your union work. Before you break a sweat, though, give yourself a big pat on the back. Most people we know would break a federal law or two to be as happy and content as you seem to be, and that's nothing to sneeze at!

ALHAMDULILLAH! Thank you Allah for all the blessings that You had bestowed upon me. :D

I hate reading newspapers of late. Why? Well.. because i hate to be reminded of the lousiness of the 11th general election. Just thinking about it makes my blood boils up to my head...makes my adrenaline rush.... makes my heart pumps faster... and makes me wanna scream out "Fucked up EC!!"... phew!~ Now... that felt good. :)

Another rather interesting thing that i saw in today's daily... a mail received from a man whom refers himself as a "moderate" muslim. Is there such thing as moderate muslims? Errr.... i may be wrong but emm...I dont think so?! Its either you're a muslim, or you're not... or at least that's what i think la. Hmm... funny how people classify themselves as nowadays.

Last but not least, EC still SUCKS! I really hope that the re-appointed government would do something to the EC to prevent it from making further intollerable mistakes. EC is supposed to be a body that is just and fair to mediate the voice of the whole nation on whom should govern the country. If this particular body slips, the government would be the one taking the toll. Fingers wont be pointed to the EC alone... it will also be pointed to the government. People will start to accuse the ruling government of having some kind of a conspiracy when it wins majority. Now.. that wouldnt be so nice, would that?

Ok.. 2nd post of the day... reviewing what i had done the whole weekend. hehe... yep.. my blog is all abt my daily life. :)

On Friday, i started my 1st swimming lesson. Turned out allright, not as scary as i imagined it would be. The pakcik made us jump into the deepest end of the pool.. hehe.. menggelabah gak kejap... pastu seronok la pulak. Diving helped la jugak... it helped in the sense that i'm more relaxed and more at ease when i'm in the water. Kira ok la jugak. Before the lesson, we (nurul and myself) dropped by at ali's in kulim since nurul wanted to brush up on her "last kiss" guitar-ing. Hmm... pandai gak la ali buat air.. hehe.. lain kali buat la cookies sekali. ;)

Friday nite, i took a bus home to KL and sampai KL on sat mornin at 0300... gile laju bas tuh.

Saturday.. didnt do anything much.. just stayed at home, preparing my mind for the election (hehe... as if!). Sunday, elections day.... which as i posted earlier, sucked. Anyway, i went out with Aliza after the election thingy. We went to BB area coz i wanted to get this work out garment that i saw in Sport's World in Sg Wang the week before. Pastu lepak for a while at this waffle place outside Lot 10... lepak2... sampai lupa taht i had sth with me.. and tertinggal la the newly bought garments kat situ. So we had to go back again (masa tu dah smpi umah baru perasan.. cian aliza... i'm sooo sorryyy!!) Luckily the guy in charged there kept it... phew.. kalau tak.. gone 100 bucks... isk.. Never ever gonna repeat such silly mistake. Nih sah sah tension pilihanraya punya pasal.

haha.. Monday and tuesday passed by by me lepaking at home, melayan athirah. okie.. going off already. ciao!

The 11th general election was a terrible shame, thanks to SPR (EC). Words cant describe how dissappointed and frustrated i was (and still am) of the whole affair. Missing voters names, printing errors and other irregularities are not expected from a body such as the EC as this is not the first time that it had carried out elections. To me, the elections this yr was a joke.

Being a registered fisrst time voter, i was very excited on voting. I checked my name on the EC's website a couple of days before the day of election and found that i was listed and i was registered under the Titiwangsa Parliamentary Constituency and the Kg Pandan Dalam DUN. I tried to find my polling location, but the site could not provide me with that. On the election day, i went to Kg Pandan Dalam and i checked my name at one of the "peraih undi" booths. They said that my name wasnt there and it could be in some other voting location's list as my name was listed under the federal territory instead of selangor and kg pandan dalam (the place that i went to) was actually under selangor. So, i asked them where i should go and they could only say "try desa pandan". ok... no blame on them because they are just the peraih undi... They werent suppose to know the whole list of voting locations anyway.

So i went off to Desa Pandan and went staright to the EC's checkpoint to check my name. Thankfully, my name was listed and that particular place was where i was supposed to vote. They issued a serial number and pointed me to channel 8, so to channel 8 i went. I queued up for like 45 minutes and when i was finally inside for the 2nd point name check, the officer found out that the name listed under the serial number that was issued to me wasnt my name! He was confused and rechecked and finally he approached the head officer at the back of the polling room. All the officer could say to me was "Kalau nama cik takde kat dlm list ni, cik tak boleh mengundi. Cuba cik check kat dlm internet kat mana cik patut mengundi." And i replied "Saya dah check dah. Mana ada senarai tmpt mengundi." The officer ckp blk "Saya pun takleh buat apa2 cik. Nama cik takde." My ass! How can he say that he couldnt do anything? How can such thing even happen? How come the name list at the 1st checkpoint didnt tally with the one in the 2nd checkpoint. How come the officers cannot do anything about it and expect us, the voters to look for our polling locations ourselves. We are not EC members. We dont know where all the polling centres are for god's sakes. How can they expect us to search high and low for our polling location? The EC should come up with something more efficient. Why not connect all the centres with internet or something so that if anything happens, the main database can be contacted. If they cannot prepare something efficeiently withing 1 week, why carry out the elections within a week anyway? They have a 60 days period to carry out the general elections.. what's the big rush? kalau rush tu berhasil takpe jugak. Ini?

And... how come the 1st count of votes show a win of a certain candidate with 36 majority and the recount shows that the candidate loses with a majority of 500? What was that about? With all these mishap, how are we, the common people are supposed to rely on the credibilty of the EC?

My first voting experience was terrible... and it will haunt me (and maybe others who faced the same problem) on the next general elections. I wanted to be a responsible citizen and vote, but all that had happened bruised my trust and confidence towards the EC. Whether or not i will vote on the next general elections.. only time will tell.

Isk..bosan.. everyone is back at home, taking the week off. Even kak lina went back to kampar tadi... isk... asal ada perkataan 'raya' je.. sume org galak balik kg la pulak.. isk.. tak kesahla RAYA haji ke..RAYA pose ke.. pilihanRAYA ke... To most, RAYA means kampung... and with the pilihanRAYA coming up this weekend, i'm still wondering... why the hell am i still here?? sheessshhh.... :p Shoulda stayed in kl longer... at least until Dan leaves for shenzhen... shoulda.. woulda..coulda... damn! Takpela.. at least.. bley start swimming lesson... (yeah.. me.. the chick who can scuba-dive but cant swim.. :p )

My phone's acting really funny... it switches off on its own especially when i dont handle it errm.. with extra tlc.. Like its something so delicate i really, really have to handle it with extra care... isk.. macam orang jugak phone nih.. lagi tua, lagi nak bermanja.. kosser ah! Malas nak layan... Heh.. ada chance tukar new phone without anybody saying that i shouldnt! lols... its about time anyway... the phone had been with me since 1999... agak2nya dah habis use-by-date dah pun.. LOLs... Hmm... thinking abt SE z200... a little bulky.. but i kinda like it... suggestions?

Just bought a lippie... ermm.. that's two lippies and a two-way cake.... wonder if i was suckered into buying those... was i? Well... lets put it this way.. its sth i'm gonna use anyway kan... so.. tak kesahla! ;)

Okie.. thats it la.... still cant figure out why this trial app wont run.. isk.. :p

Post-bonding [?] blues... bleugh.. hate this. LOL.. post bonding konon. Hehe.. takde la... its just that we spent so much time together during the weekend, i miss not being with him at the present moment. Benci ah this feeling.... and the fact that he'll be away for the next 3 weeks doesnt help... nope.. it doesnt help at all..

Went to kak azni's wedding on saturday and met aiza... Dan was really trying to sell his cuz chum to my fren.. too bad aiza's unavailable no more... And too bad judd cant make it to the wedding.. kalau tak, bley jumpa dia for the very 1st time. Hmm.. looks like we're gonna have to arrange some kind of an 'accidental' date. LOL! Anyway, aiza shared some stories abt the wedding that totally freak Dan out (well.. it freaked me out as well)... Hmmm... eloping doesnt sound like such a bad idea after all huh? LOL... Improvised version of eloping that is... heh.. you dont wanna know.

The day before, we went to the new (well.. not so new already) Ikea in mutiara damansara. A really nice place la.. sgt suka! Bought a night lamp for kak azni.. and Dan bought some stuffs... we had fun shopping that day coz we tried everything on display.. the sofa, sofa beds, rugs... BEDs... ]:D Hehehe... the beds are really comfy... ;) really..

Zura's getting engaged after raya this yr.. probably the 3rd week of november kot... and might probably walk down the isle next june... Isk.. tak aci.. A guy came into her life.. and suddenly she's getting married... isk... murah rezeki pompuan tu. Heheh... takpela... awin and myself will gladly make way for her.. (there goes my 20052005!boo-hoo-hoo...)

Isk.. dahla.. malas nak layan cerita nak kawin ni. Selagi tak complete project, berangan je la.. :p LOL... better concentrate on looking better... stress-free sikit. Heh... Isk... craving for monterey chicken kat chili's aa... Craving tak habis2.. As soon as i satisfy my craving for sth, another craving develops.. isk... Is this a never ending cycle???

Its already wednesday.. can you believe it?? cepat betul... and i'm going back the day after tmrw!!! LOLS!

So excited..so excited..so excited... so excited... i can go on and on.. tapi org kata kang excited lelebih kang terkeciwa plak.. ye ke? Hope not...

Btw.... i think i might've sed sth i shouldnt yesterday... ermm....

Whatever it is... mlm nih nak pergi meronggeng for the last time wit Nabil.. farewell kinda thingy before he goes and report himself as an engineer in Felda.. Tsk..tsk.. bubbye nabil!~ (hehe.. saturday kang jumpa lagi nabil.. duh!~) Apa pun, nabil is the bestest guy buddy any gal can ask for. Thanks nabil for being such a good friend to all of us. :) May everything goes well for you your whole life and.. simpan duit cecepat so that we can all go to your wedding next year.. ok? (jgn clash ngan wedding aku lak sudah.. LOLS!) Hehe... ckp macam confirm2 je kawin next yr kan? hehe.. takpe.. doa..

Okie.. gotta finish up some reading materials... isk.. bila mind dah kat umah.. susah.. :p

Btw... i've an account with www.photomalaysia.com and i've uploaded the pantai bersih piccies.. You can drop by and search for my Pantai Bersih album.. sorry.. i dunno the exact add for that page.. yet.. Teruk kan? Lols!

Went to main campus today to see some MBA students' viva. Yikes!! Seemed really tough... especially when panels ask questions. Its like... you just get stunned when they ask because you think you've covered everything and yet this panel comes out with a valid question that you'd never thought of... Hmmm... one of the difficulties of having people with a different point of view... Wonder what it'll be like when my turn comes.... YIKES!~

Aznor and myself actually went to Png by invitation... aznor's bro's friend's invitation... Hehhe... different people, diferent ways/methods used to get closer to the person they're attracted to. You know what i mean.... but the best way is actually to get your message across clearly, no beating around the bush. You have nothing to lose.. maybe malu la sikit... but what if it works out? Or what if it didnt just because you didnt have the heart to find out? Kan menyesal tak sudah? At least if you find out, you get to know the response, be it a positive or a negative one... Heh.. apa la melalut... whatever it is.. it could be of some use to someone out there... hopefully.

Got my tix to KL... Friday 0930.. Feeling really excited!! Gonna hafta go to Ikea or SSF to get a wedding prezzie for kak azni... Saturday gi wedding with Dan (yeay!) then, i'll ask him to drop me at KLCC before he goes home to prepare for his flight later that nite coz i'm gonna meet up with my x-schoolmates for a while before driving my mom up to Sepang later that evening. Packed jugak plan this weekend... lols.. weekend pun takleh nak berehat. :p Tapi takpe.. asal bahagia. ;)

So.. i think that's it. Got some confirmation to do regarding this weekend. Chiao!

Went to see Dr K this morning. Seems that he's pretty busy with lab reports and exam paper markings... so he cant really commit to my project. Whatever it is, he told me to get my codes running so we have a sth to work on.. Gee whiz.. wish its easy to actually write the codes.

Went to see a dermatologist in Kulim yesterday. Mak aii..punyela ramai org..macam klinik kerajaan. Had to wait for like 2 hrs!! Apepun, puas hati. At least takdela macam pegi GP.. "oh..maybe its an allergic reaction.. you shouldnt get too worried.. " Allergy my ass... :p The skin specialist diagnosed my ailment as scabies which is an itchy skin condition caused by mites. It can be passed on by prolonged touch... and it doesnt show its symptoms instantly. Takes about 2-6 weeks to show the first signs.. he said that maybe i was in contact with another scabies patient three months ago... So.. he gave me a jab, 3 different pills to be taken everyday for the next two weeks, 2 types of creams that i should apply on the necessary parts and a list of food that i should avoid, consisting of beef, chicken, eggs, anchovies among other things. Hmm... if i were to stick on atkin's jawabnye makan taukua je la tiap2 hari... Tak kuasa la... so i thot that i shud just finish off my taukua stock and get on with fruits pulak aahh.. huhuhuu... (For more info on scabies visit http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dpd/parasites/scabies/factsht_scabies.htm)

After the dermatologist, azeno, azanie, nabil and myself, we went to bm's summit for dinner and later lepak kat Pantai bersih.. hmmm.. really nice place to hang out la... I tried to take a few pics.. tapi angin kuat sgt kot..gamba goyang... BUT... heheh... we did capture some really interesting pic of a couple making out on the beach... LOLS!! I'm gonna put it on my gallery soon... heheh.. padan muke.. sape suh make out in public.... in front of us plak tu.. bebudak nakal nih... heheh...saje la carik nahas! LOL..

Okie.. time to go back and prepare myself for aerobics.... btw.. i had a round of squash with nabil yesterday.. Perghh.. memang best la main squash... good lower body work out.. memang best lah!

2nd post of the day - the result of total boredom. Heh. Went out with alqas and bazlit yesterday... gih megamall, alqas wanted to get a guitar... and she did! A santa cruz.. so, in a month or two, i'm really looking forward for alqas and bazlit to play guitar together and the rest of us can sing along! :) Cepat belajar nurul!!

Each one of us bought something.. hehe... gaining whatever benefits that we can get from the ongoing megasale carnival... not to mention stretching our budgets wherever and whenever neccessary ;) Bazlit bought 2 dvds (he's always buying dvds... :) ) and me? Hehe.. i got a pair of jeans!! and a baby-t that cost only like 5 bucks... cheap la for lady-like apparels kan. The jeans was at 50% off at body glove.. hehe... The fact that it was on sale made me happy... but the fact that i can fit into size L (which i can only dream of before) made me terrifically overjoyed!!! Hehe... sebenarnye the jeans' cutting is a little large... sbb i tried on another pair of a different cut, tak masuk! :p LOLs.. but buying a jeans of size L made me happy anyway.... :D and hopefully that thought can cheer me up for the rest of the day this week... and thru the weekend. :(

Haha.. gile...

Boo-hoo-hoo.... i'm so crushed. Dan has to work or be on standby this weekend... which only means one thing - no weekend together in Ipoh. He'll be spending the weekend either flying or lazin around at home or be at his parents, and me? i'll just be here and stare blankly into space! :p Sucks... I'm so into the weekend getaway idea already. Dayyyymmmmm!

Anyway... was getting rather bored with reading some stuffs to prepare myself before meeting my 2nd spv this monday, so i surfed some sites... a blog by a newly-coupled guy (heheh) whose sister's gonna get married soon and the venue will be in Kg Warisan.. isk..best gile venue!.... Then, visited his photo gallery and 2 links that he pointed out.. the Rotiboy and Dewan Merak Kayangan (malas nak hperlink..sorry) Anyways... Rotiboy is actually a bakery, famed for its Mexico bun..memang sedap gile, i had a taste when eza bought some in Midvalley. The look of the bun is rather plain... but never let the look fool you! The taste... its just sth that you cant let your tastebuds miss..really.. a hint of coffee.. and cocoa... And its a little crispy on the outside as well... isk.. memang sedapla... Makin me crave for it already. If you happen to come across the bakery, give it a try... (free publicity tuhh!) If you're in KLCC, you wont miss it coz it's always full of people and heck.. your nose will definitely guide you there.

Then, i surfed the Merak Kayangan Hall's website. saje tengok2..manala tau..kotla rezeki lebih, bley buat wedding kat sana.. LOLS.... berangan la! I'd hafta fork out like rm16k or so just for the food and venue... tak masuk lain2 lagik.. Arghhh... y is it so xpensive to get married? Elope kang... go somewhere romantic(outside malaysia)... and get married.. senang..tak payah sibuk2 with all kenduri and stuff... hmm.. tapi takleh gak... It's every girl's dream to have a memorable wedding (and reception).. isk... :(

LOL..takyah pk.. siapkan keje, then baru pk nak kawen ok??? (tak ok pun kena ok la jugak..huhuhu...)

Would anyone be kind enough to cheer me up now and for the rest of the week?? :(

My head is throbbing with jabbing pain... heh.. exaggerate lebih. But i am having headache right now... and my supervisor being lost in action doesnt help. Need to see him to resolve some issues regarding my project...which is yet in another sluggish development state. :p

Dan called last nite. Sed that his sim yesterday wasnt really good. Hope things goes well for him today. He's coming back tmrw, thank God.. but he'll only be around for like 6 days before his 3 weeks Shenzhen detachment. Sometimes his travelling around drives me up the wall... but then again.. its his job, and i respect that (or at least i try my very best to remind myself that i should)... lagipun... he's doing it for the both of us... (sob!sob!) Anyway, hopefully he'll be on leave frm friday to monday.. so that we can spend some time together before he goes off.... kalau tak dapat leave... hm.. there goes our weekend in ipoh plan. :p Totally not cool.

Aiza's sis' wedding is coming next weekend... still no idea what to get her... or whom to go to the wedding with. Initial plan of course la with Dan.. and his cuz Chum.. since Dan cant go.. i've to get a replacement la... already asked nabil.. he said maybe he cud... but everything isnt confirmed yet. Worse come to worse.. i'll go with my bro je la.. at least he'll be the one driving. ;) Hmm... feel like lepaking at uk-p laa.. isk...

Oklaa.. enuf sed. Btw.. i think this template is so not me laa... I mean the way i write and the aura (chewah!) that this template radiates macam tak kena....tapi nak tukar malas... biar je la. :p

Went to Prangin Mall on Saturday wit azeno, diyana, and nabil. One reason, to get full length swim suit, which will serve as a wet suit as well, when i go diving... and the other reason is to get myself relaxed so as to prepare myself of what's coming on the day after..LOL.. Huii...ingat tak pressure ke bakal mentua nak datang umah???

Anyways, they did come on Sunday, around 4++... and i served them with home-made iced lemon tea, tuna rolls and kedai-made currypuffs and taukua sumbat. Lols.. kelam kabut nak mampus coz i had to visit nabil at the hosp during lunh hr, smpi umah dah 2 lebey, smayang, 2.30... kalut aa coz they said they'll arrive around 3 or so.. isk.. tu yang pecah telur cengkerang habis hancur. Hampehs tahap dewa!... i hope they didnt ate any eggshells... yikes!~ Tapi... i think thing went great la... They lepak at my place for abt an hour or so, makan sikit, borak byk... aznor and azanie dropped by kejap.. kira oklaa.. berbaloi aa kemas rumah and merumput sampi tgn kena blister kan.. LOL!

Okela... gotta rush home. Aerobics in an hour..
P/S:wish me luck for my 2nd phase diet regime! ;)
