Cupcake dan Sate

Thank you to all who wished me a happy birthday. Was surprised at the amount of wall posts in FB, ya know... since I rarely check up on all my friends' updates.

Thanks to Bailah, Farah, Nwar and Shu for dessert then dinner (yes, in that order)!

Alhamdulillah, for this life. Would also like to thank Him for Haziq's health. My youngest nephew certainly gave us a scare yesterday when he had a seizure due to tonsillitis.

My thanks also goes out to Choi Dongwook for reminding me there's still someone I can root for in current Kpop.

I'd love to thank Shinhwa too for being Shinhwa and hmm KinKi for new dvd. Well, KinKi's in here partly because I feel seriously guilty for overshadowing their anniversary yesterday with Se7en's new mini album :P

What else? I'll be able to thank my family this Sunday, so I can skip them from this post first...

It's July!

Dum dum dum dum!

Count your days, people! I shouldn't have to remind you how special this month is akekekeke.

Woo it slipped my mind to post this yesterday before leaving for home, I didn't have time to wish an extra special greeting for my Sugi-chan:

HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY, SUGIZO!

Stop wearing so much black, moisturise your hair and eat more so that you wouldn't look a day older :D

Work days are booooring this week since Farah got warded for A(H1N1). I miss youuuuu and your Shinhwa spamming and our daily MSN chats. Get well soon ;(

All Shades of Blue and White

Happy 30th Birthday, Tsuyoshi-san! Oh and congratulations on the release of your album, your single and your live tour start. And yeah thank you for being MFEO MFDK (Made For Domoto Koichi). ;D

Here's my present as promised: 1 angsty KinKi [download] + 1 happy 10-years-ago KinKi [download] :D



I doubt anybody use Winamp anymore. But it's the thought that counts, right?

I've submitted photos of the sky for Tsuyo's birthday fan project. Yay! I hope he gets to see the 'world' through our eyes eventhough my pics weren't exactly spectacular or anything. But hey didn't I say it's the thought that counts? ne? ne?

Been too preoccupied with the harsh realities of life that I haven't given thought to my surroundings anymore. when I was small, I used to love to sit at our house porch as a storm rolls in, watching the swollen dark grey clouds racing with the wind. Then I'd stare and stare at the rainwater pooling under my dad's car and drown ants send floating leafs down the drain.

Nightime gazing at the moon was one of my favourite pastimes too. I had even stupidly 'wished' on fullmoons, praying that Barbie dolls would magically appear in my toybox. Or that my stupid brother would fall down and break his leg or something to that effect. Hah! Such naivety in a Cancer kid!

Well, my perception of a perfect sky is plenty different from Tsuyo's preference for white tufty clouds. But it's wonderful how he's made us slowed down a bit from our hectic schedules (which has always been his ambition).

Salam Raya

I fell asleep yet again on my keyboard. Hence the utter plainness of this Raya greeting. <_<

This all due to exhaustion from work (I pity Roy for getting dumped with my load) and delayed withdrawal from yesterday's siaoness with the girls (Happy Birthday, Mish! Hope you like my gift).

So I snored through sahur and I seriously can't remember hearing the alarm! And now I'll be balik-ing kampung on an empty stomach!

EID MUBARAK! :D

Raya Shoppin'

My head was still spinning from last night's caffeine overdose and lack of sleep (Happy Birthday, Aish~ Hope you like my measly gifts!) and my computer's seriously sick after it got hit by worms and spywares, but my plan has to be set into motion anyway. Whew. Finally got meself some new baju kurungs and bling. YAY! :D

Tadi pagi-pagi ler kite ni pon keluar pegi bershopping ajak mak and kakak. Aha mak oii. Bukannye pegi KL nun, tau la cemane Jln TAR pada hari publik public holiday haa kannn... Instead we went to PKNS Shah Alam which was blissfully sparse of humanoids at 10.30 in the morning. Huu.

Lepas ni I wanna go shop for shirts pulak. And perhaps a sandal. Somehow, sometime. Eep.

*counts my moneyh* Harap2 cukup untuk ditabung.

To My Archangel

Happeh belated birthday to my dear (3rd) ex-husband whom I still love with all my heart and soul: SUGIZO!

I haven't been sharing his songs much with any of you lot on Friendster, because I've somehow been afraid of how you would accept his type of music... Sure, I spazz a lot about Gazette and MUCC and Yasu *wipes drool* and even Abingdon Boys School. I even chucked Hyde for him. Lolz. (Thank God I did, cos Hyde's such a disgrace now)

But not one of them can come close to the sheer magnificence of this man. Yeah so his niche is electronica, big deal. It doesn't matter to me in what way he reaches out to people.

It's his humbleness (uh ok so he only changed his attitude after Luna was born), his joie de vivre, his love for life and how he sees goodness in a world so bleak.

Viva Sugizo-san! So let me spread his infectious loving with a few of my most favourite songs (which I think everyone can accept and will love):

• Cosmo Miumiu | by Miu Sakamoto


• Alice | by Maki


• Dear Life | by Sugizo & the Spank Your Juice


• Deliver.. | by Sugizo

Birthday Shout-backs

Everyone told me to have a great time. So I did. By watching 'The Dark Knight' THREE times within 11 days. A sorta birthday treat for myself, ya know?

Well. Twenty five. That's me. Another one bites the dust.

Not surprisingly, I don't feel any older. Although I have been yaking on and on about gaining another digit. But being surrounded by so many people that I love certainly doesn't compel me to become ashamed of what I've achieved (so far) at my age.

Let's not get too sappy with the thank you speech, Arfah! Here goes nothing: Thanks to all my wacky friends who still love me during my craziness, to my two BFF who understands me the most, to my family for throwing a humble surprise party (who thought I wasn't too old for this?) and to all of you who sent smses and wishes!

[On impulsive buyer mode]

Owh. I've been so tired these past few days that I hadn't had time to update or even surf the Net much -_-. Each time I plop down on my bed, I'll drift into a dreamless sleep and wake up still feeling tired. My stomach ache has abated so I don't know what's causing my exhaustion.

Yesterday was an exception because we had a surprise birthday party for Moon (Otanjyoubi omedetou!). Which then turned into a triple celebration for belated birthday girls Farah and Aunty Yong... Which then turned into a can't-run-anywhere-anymore discussion on work. As usual, we hogged Secret Recipe with our, um, rambunctious and slightly-hamsap group :P



Moonie got the new L photobook! And the rest of use were content by just meeting up with each other after such a long and strenuous month. ;D

Apparently Kak Bailah has also taken a fancy towards MatsuKen as L. She bought her own copy today. Now, while we were spazzing over the ridiculously expensive DoubleS jap photobook I saw something that made the DoubleS book literally fall from my hands... *points to below pic on farmost right*



Yep! *beams with pride* And so I bought the super duper gorgeous Luna Sea photobook since it was friggin 20% off. That's roughly 30 ringgit cheaper than getting it from YesAsia la wei. The thing was sitting there so prettily in plain sight that I just couldn't not have it, now could I? Besides, there didn't seem to be any other copies apart from this one. Heheh.

H-h-h-h-heh. *wipes grin off face* I keep reminding myself I haven't even paid for the Shinhwa albums.

Gimme some more o' them Daim

Went on quite an 'adventure' with the DongBang Clan (ekekeke) from Setapak to Hartamas and back for a belated birthday lunch/celebration for Farah. I didn't know where they were leading me to because honestly I couldn't hear what Twinnie told me. Mian ^^;;

My mouth agape and eyes wide apart, I stepped into a chic Korean-export
restaurant called BBQ Chicken. So without looking too jakun I pretended not to look around. Lol. I had a BBQ set of 2 Korean Charbroiled chicken pieces with salad (it was coleslaw, btw) and mashed potatoes.



Sorry, I was too hungry. I had already annihilated the chikin with gusto when I realised I forgot to take piccy. Look ma~ licin habis!

After lunch, we sped off to Ikea for dessert! I was still recovering from the yummylicious chikin *pats tummy* yet I had to make space for bottomless coffee and Hyung's current obsession: Daim Cake. ROAR.



*succumbs to toothache with sheer joy* Why have I never tried this before in my whole life?! All the trips there would always be dominated with my hunger for their signature meatballs. What a shame!

[Much to Farah's horror, we were adamant in singing her a Happy Birthday. Hey girl, you're only 25 once, ya know? And it was fun watching the Clan's DongBang-ified version...]

Two coffees after and then dropping Meli off at her apartment and finally parting ways at the Melati LRT station around 5pm, me and Farah rushed over to KLCC. We managed to beat the time even after a really long queue to watch "L Change the WorLd."

But the movie only succeeded in making me crave for more food! Argh!!

Happy Birthday, Dongwan!

Selamat Ulang Tahun buat suamiku tercinta <3

Tatkala dia sedang sibuk membikin recording 'tuk album baru, disamping persiapan (secara mental) utk menjalankan tugas besar tahun hadapan... isk isk, ku melewati Photoshop yg sudah kian lama tidak disentuh dan menyediakan grafik untuk hari jadinya.

Apsal aku tulis dalam BM ni? hish.

For a few days I'll be using this graphic as my profile background. Just until I manage to bake another Luna Sea layout for December (the concert is 33 days away!!)

I hope my love reaches him ;D

resurrected from the dust

well. after 2 or more years (who's counting?), i finally took it out from the back of my CD cupboard, tore the plastic wrapper, gently removed it from the outer box and played it for the first time. all thanks to my current fever which, since Thursday, rendered me completely tired and boneless after coming back from work and breaking my fast.

because "Resurrection" is a damn good K-drama! heck, the reason i bought it was because i was adamant into buying something mind boggling and different than all the mainstream tear-jerking dramas. my friend Jaela really recommended this title. i can't believe i didn't spend any time to see this. maybe back then i was too busy catching up with my downloaded dramas.

ooh come to think of it, i haven't even finished watching Uhm Taewoong and Joo Jihoon's "Mawang" cos i was too lazy to dl the HD <_< i think i'll just wait for the box-set. i just hope i don't chuck it for next year's viewing. eek.

i guess a virus would then ironically become helpful for these little things. ;P

Selamat Berpuasa, people! And Birthday Wishes goes out to Aishah, Salmi, Kak Zai and my nephew Hakim (both tomorrow)! wheehoo~

yet another year added

24 years. wow. pretty old, huh? and how did i celebrate my birthday? by pigging myself out on food then lepak-ing at Amcorp for the whole day and playing Uno nonstop. xDD what brilliance! - engineered by JerRy and Aishah.

and at home, my 'birthday cake' came in the form of yummylicious durian. nyahaha.

(so far) i've received a Harry Potter book from my sister, jewelery from Mak & Daddy, mp4 player from Aishah & JerRy plus wishes from my beloved friends [via sms, testimonial and blog updates] and so many people i never expected would have bothered (quite a different set from last year).

내 사랑하는 친구들 에게, 너무 감사해요.
To my beloved friends, thank you so much.

3Fs: Friends, Fun & Food

CAUTION: THIS IS SO GONNA BE LONG! 10 PARAGRAPHS! - whee today was so much fun! i went out to celebrate Lyndy, Fel and Mel's birthdays. amazing. totally not work related at all. my cheeks are still hot after the bouts of laughter, the unofficial hamsapster promotion and sesi memalukan diri (and also because of coffee). lol. i tell you.. kingdom staff plus committees went krayjee during LG and TV3's MyStarz audition at The Curve xDD.

took the rapidkl bus from KJ with twinnie, nwar and tasha (mel janji to meet us there). we got lost searching for the underground tunnel at ikano side then went here and there looking for a guy whom i was supposed to meet (new Kingdom membership applicant). the poor kid was cornered by us nunas which i think is because we rarely get manly male members apart from Noviar. i swear he looked scared when everyone wanted to talk to him ("Who's your favorite singer?" -> "Rain.") at the same time.

jzune and her usual gang were there too. after fel, lyndy and michele arrived, we were gaping at the weirdo auditioners while waiting for yuri and nicole and innocently taking group photos when SUDDENLY the cameraman (covering the audition) came and filmed us being spazzy. wah sei malu weh~!! let's hope we'll be edited out =_=. lepas sejam gitu, we spotted lavena registering (*v* ) so we promised her that we'd show support and cheer during her turn. her number was 69 which would be another 3 hours or so, therefore we went to have our birthday lunch :)

lunch was Deep Fried Chicken Chop and teh tarik at Marché (belanja-ed!). you know the restaurant with the cow? puahah. the food was nice, although i had a really tough time choosing what to eat. sigh. i gave out my prezzies for the three birthday gals and yuri's belated gift. aww Kingdom spirit has always made us infamous as... crazy people.

nearing to 4pm, JerRy and Aish smsed that they are already in Ikea, so they went to eat sambil menunggu aku. i managed to say byebye to almost everyone and cabut-ed to Ikea's cafe. aw and again i don't get chance to eat meatballs cos i was too full T-T. tsk tsk. but i got to drink my beloved bottomless Coffee sumbat-ed into the car with my family and headed to Amcorp Mall for dinner. wah. nonstop eat lah today. siao. what more, as usual after our family's big meal.. i have to help my sister by becoming a 'tong sampah' and whallop all the leftover food. -____- so NOW you might understand why i'm so friggin fat and can never lose weight, eh?

confetti & cake
