I had the best xmas this year. We had "Secret" Santa at Tony's on xmas eve. My housemates and I had a great time and a good laugh that night. The warm welcome and the delish food made us feel more comfortable with the rest of the bruneians. The girls even looked pretty in their new outfit, new haircut/do and make up. Actually, they are fun girls and i do like them...:)
Then xmas dinner at my house on the 25th. It was the best indeed. Kate and I put alot of effort to make sure that it would be a memorable one. We didn't expect guests at first but then we thought it would be nice if we would share our dinner with some friends. So we invited Myla and Maj and we ended up going to bed at 4am. What did we do? Haha. We had a long dinner conference where we talked about politics, religions and health issues to mention some. And we are just what? 19? 21? Interesting huh..
So, how was ur xmas? I hope u had a great time too. What else can be better than spending time with your family and friends during xmas? I missed celebrating xmas with my parents but after the dinner with my housemates, it felt alot like home .
Had a list of new resolutions written in by book. This time I am trying to be more realistic than last year. Honestly, I wanted changes so dramatically and trust me, if you are going to do the same, u will never accomplish any of them. So, next year, I will take things slowly and steadily. And I am sure I will see the changes and improvements by the end of the year.
2. Drink more mineral water
3. Less clubbing (like once a mth?)
4. Save AT LEAST £XX a mth? - this is the HARD bit
5. Pray at least once a day
6. Bedtime will be 10 or 11pm (Okay, maybe 12 will be the max)
7. Move on (NO MORE Mr Prada)
8. Family comes FIRST
9.Exercise everyday.. (45 mins)
10. Watch a movie at least once a week
11. Make an effort to look good all the time.
That's it. I am trying to be less needy/demanding in my list this year. I think I have learned some lessons the hard way in the past. And now I think the best things come when you least expect it:)
To 2007,
You have not disappoint me that much but you're not that kind to me either. I have learned alot from my mistakes and all this year, u taught me lessons i never expected to learn and you threw me sights i couldn't have visualised. Sometimes I couldn't tolerate on you at all and that's when I wanted a better new year. But now, I'm so sad that u are leaving me in just a couple of days.. I know there will be more unexpected things to come which could be better or even worse. But somehow, I am ready to ride the turbulent waves coz u have made me a survivor. Thank you 2007. And now i welcome 2008, and will make sure that we will go along on the right wavelength.
I will miss you 2007. Like really.
xoxo
Baby
Oh, what a speech. But 2007 is somehow one of the best year, despite the hard times that i've been through.
"Let yourself be impressed by the magic that surrounds you every day. Smile at a stranger when they smile at you." - said 2007.
Finally, im falling ill.. This is not cool. GO AWAY!!!
Today I had a weird body temperature.. It's fluctuating and I'm seeing things in yellow now. My 'wonderful' friend said that it's jaundice! Thank you friend. That is very helpful! Listen! I don't have jaundice. It's normal. I'm just burning inside. And a bit weak. I tried not to cry (cos i always cry when i fall ill) but my eyes are beginning to shed tears everytime i talk about it.. Like now:(
Oh, speaking about yellow.. I was reading an article on carrots. Eating a very large volume of carrots can give an orange-y tint to the skin. Yes, ur skin (and eyeballs) will turn yellowish/orange-y. Ewwww... that is emmm.. funny! hehe. And kids who love eating carrots will have yellow button nose if they eat too much.. Hehe, isn't that cute! (err..okay, maybe not)
Alright, enough about carrots.
Yesterday was the coldest day ever! Mcm do south pole! But anyway, yesterday was a great day. Kate and I went to Coventry Transport Museum. It was hilarious.. really it was! That girl is full of character. Like a cartoon? Hehe..
I like this year more than the previous year. Well, the bruneians are awesome.. cali but emm..i think my housemates are way cooler! Really, no drama. Well, things WERE out of control during the first few months, but then that was non of my business really and Cat is trying to start things from scratch after that. She deserves a second chance. And guess what? I trust my instinct. It's worth a second chance. And remember, people change. U know, from pemalu to a drama queen, from alim to emm..nda berapa (like tutup aurat then buka tia..hehe..well, maybe belum ready kali ah..) from being close to abit open etc. I think this could be for better or for worse. It's up to us actually. And yes, I can see the changes in everyone. and ME as well. :) But u know, u dont have to like it, just accept it.
This year, I think my life needs changes. I want to have as many friends as i could. Hang out with different people. Knowing them and at the same time learning new things. I noticed that I don't get anything from sticking with the same crowd. Ok, correction. I know how to cook now. Asian dish mostly. But as i mixed with different people, i learn more. Culture, personalities, dishes, diets, religions and yes of course, getting to know more b*tches! Hehe. Afterall it's uk y'all. This is the time when u make MORE international friends. You'll see the difference. Banar!
Hmm..despite of being ill tonight i still manage to blog. And I think I write alot today innit? But hey, i guess that's it. Rather than moaning and whining about being sick or maybe cry (this is for me), cheer up! Even it doesn't make u feel better, at least ure not getting any worse. Trust me! Coz I feel it right now! Woohoo~~~
Yes! WHY? I'm so mad! - At myself. Why would I ever want to talk to a person who hurt me the most! I shouldn't say hi to him at the first place. I picked a fight on him last week and we were not talking after that. I thought that was a good idea to say goodbye to each other. Yes, it WAS a final goodbye.. Not until today when I saw him on msn.. I clicked on him and said "so, you are not talking to me anymore?" WTF!!!!! If I could turn back the time..yea..that phrase is shit.. Only stupid people like me will say that.. I'm pissed! I seriously should have thought about it...WISELY! Again, stupid thing to say..
Mr Prada thought I was "away"...Yea right..what a lame excuse~ So, we ended up talking about Cat.. I know he uhmm..likes her? *I hate to admit it* He was on my side because I am the ex girlfriend. BUT I know he likes her because I KNOW. And he did say something that actually made me gone mad. He said "if, we were a couple (as in with Cat)..." and i was like "STOP!!!" How could he say that? After what she has done to me? Ok, not me.. To Ali? Ok, Ali has nothing to do with him actually, then why should he be bothered anyway? But I got affected remember? That's my whole point.. Eeeee....
Oh, Ali reminds me of my new housemateS (she and the bf) who will be moving in tomorrow.. Yay! Ok, i shouldn't be too happy about it..Let's just stay modest..Coz i don't want things like Ali and Cat to happen again this time..No good.. So, alright.. These new housemates are from Letvia.. The gf is very nice.. (i think she is young) the bf is..oh man!!! I want to be in a relationship NOW.. Enough said. I just hope they don't make too much noise coz the walls are VERY thin.. Believe it or not.. we can hear almost everything! That reminds me of DQ. And my last year's house mate, Mickey thought that Brova was hammering. U know when the bed keeps on knowing the wall? It does make a hammering sound innit? HAHAHA..What a mickey he is.. LOL.
So where were we? Oh, the walls! Yes, Ali complained about it coz our neighbour just can't stop yelling at his kids.. That is one of his good reason to move out.. Talking about WHY he moved out.. The Letvian girl asked Ali and he replied "My GF. I'm moving in with her..." My jaw was WIDE opened! N i was trying sooo hard to not laugh at him..Cos seriously Al, that was hilarious..looking at ur don't-tell-them-the-truth face almost made me burst into laughter.. Hehe..sorry mate, I'm not being mean..but I was just shocked.. It makes me wonder - Why that reason? Hehe..ok, drop it already..
Back to my story earlier.. Now tell me how to end this relationship? I don't think it's a good idea to be friends anymore. My ex and I can't go out like friends. Correction - friends with benefits actually. Nasty innit? Tell me I'm a fool. Anyone?
Something else today- Ms Posh texted me. Seriously, that girl has gone heave duty! And she is like head over heels with Law. Imagine, at Law School on a Saturday? I bet she is going to be a great lawyer. And me? What did i do today? EAT like there is no food tomorrow.. Hahah.. N Ms Posh said "You and ur food Lai!!" Kekeke..That girl knows that i looove food. Oh, i miss her.. I never talked about her but let me say it here.. U will never asked for a better companion when she is around. 2 more years and we'll be colleagues. Amin~ And yes, I'm glad to know that.. Gonna visit her soon.. Did i mention that i miss her? But this time..it's like really... :(
Skipped today's lecture coz I was exhausted from lastnight's gathering. I have this weird disease where it takes me 3days to actually recover from any sorts of activities. Say for example, after clubbing..i will stay in bed for at least 3days to recover.. I don't drink. But that's it.. I will lock myself in my room for days even after a whole day outing with friends. Crap huh.
So,what did i do lastnight? I went to Fad'z open house+hudz bday. It was fun..esp with the hilarious boys. Honestly, if it wasn't them, the party is going to be dull. Coz the new girls are very quite. I was once a first year student but i mingle with the rest (esp the seniors) pretty good. I talk alot even though my LOUD voice can be annoying, I joke around though i know they are mostly the lame ones or not even funny at all, I laugh when ppl tell me the crappiest and lamest stories/jokes..In which i expect the new girls to do the same. But seems like these girls have emm..ok, put it this way..The girls are shy? But seriously, i think they need to brush up their social skills. Not that i'm pissed off or what.but its just that u know..i want MORE fun when hanging out with them.
I am going to make a raya party soon. (rayaween i call it). People will be dressing up in their traditional outfit BUT need to wear at least one item of the Halloween costumes (u can either wear a wig, or witch's hat or even paint ur face) And I will also be hosting a game in the party. My point is.. If these girls are not participating..its gonna be BOOOOORING. And i don't like boring parties.. How should i tell these girls to open up, socialise and be more fun fun fun?
Okay, I am mean. Maybe i should give them time. Coz they are just settling down. And i bet they are very shy or scared to talk to me when i am so loud? LOL. Oh but i really like this girl, Ain.. I click with her. We think alike. Sadly, there is someone who dislikes her for the way she talks. And that someone said, when she talks, she talks like me! Does that mean she dislike me as well?!!? Oh fuck off! I don't care about that person. She is just pathetic. I don't need that kind of people to be in my friends circle. Anyway, back to this girl. She has a great sense of humor with sporting spirit! GO AIN! Peduli tia that person who doesn't like the way u talk. I think it's cute though (it's not because i talk like her- so she said- but merely because, i think that is the real her) She is being herself. Yay! Personality is everything!
So, here are some pictures that i wana share..i have more but its in facebook. Can't be bothered to upload all of them here. Anyhow~ Hope you enjoy browsing through each one of the photos..
