tooth

m.y. g.i.g.i. s.a.n.g.a.t. s.a.k.i.t.

THIS EFFING TOOTH IS KILLING ME!

THE GUM ALL AROUND IT IS SWELLING LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS!

I can't eat properly. EAT you know, E.A.T. is important!

I can't drink properly (coz when I swallow, my tongue flattens in a way, thus pressuring the stupid tooth).

I can't brush my teeth properly.

I can't sleep properly wth! CANNOT! I have a whole sem to NOT sleep properly! PLEASE lemme sleep while I still can. PLEEEEEEEEASE.

My head constantly pounds. On one side ONLY. Yenadei?!

I woke up with headache for four effing mornings. Already! Another one tomorrow guaranteed.

2011. Like that laa. MEHHHH.

Whuaaa!

Memang lama never update this site hahah!

Okay life's been boring. Mehh.

BUT. After the many many semesters discussing about it,

I finally met XiaoQING in KuCHING! (get the ching!)

And Betty Then.

Totally. Love. Her. Qing's mum laa!

Anyone reading this should meet her can?

She's absolutely lovable and cuddle-able and kissable and aiyoh-able.

I like Sarawak. Sangat-sangat!

BL to van driver: "Bang! Stop stoppp! Kami mau tangkap kucing sikijap!"

Me: "Omg TANGKAP kucing."

Driver: "Boleh. Boleh. Tangkap lah."

>Elly, BL, me.

This was in Sibu.

The longhouse we visited was 140 years old.

I was walking and dancing on 140-year-old Belian wood!

Y'know, Belian's the toughest wood in the world.

Termites will break their teeth(?) if they try to bite it.

And I was thinking, people who built this longhouse was probably wearing only loincloth!

Honestly, I was very very amazed. VERY.

>CK, Joyce the Sibuan, Elly, BL, me.

Joyce: "Why you wanna come Sibu? There's nothing here.

So small. Want to get lost also difficult. Next time don't come liao laa."

All of us: "WTH?"

Oh oh the Bidayuh (was it Bidayuh?) women dressed me up!

Hahah! Full costume!

Except,

woman: "Kamu takda rambut."

=.=" Yenadei.

Sangat-sangat heavy omg. The corset's made of bronze.

And my banana socks looked sangat-sangat lost with the whole costume.

Banyak-banyak accessories too.

Okayyy back to Kuchingching.

You're awesome if you can KAYAK 10 KM in the rain.

Therefore, I'M AWESOME.

Okay laa.

WE'RE awesome.

The two makcik there?

Yeah. They're PRO at:

1) kayaking to the left or right, never straight.

2) aiming kayak at big rocks.

3) hitting tree branches.

4) screaming.

First it drizzled.

Then it stopped.

Then it drizzled again.

Stopped again.

Then it rained.

Then it's satisfied.

I don't remember doing that!

When did I do that?!

The colour might not be pretty, but the water's lovely!

And the pebbles are prickly.

I don't remember doing that too!

Buntut cramp?

Next day.

Bako National Park.

South China Sea.

Eh? Not yet.

And the fella handling our boat was wearing

a shirt and an underwear. That's it.

Saw lotsa local people on boats, fishing, and wearing only underwear, too.

*blink blink*

After jungle trekking for 700m,

beach yay beach!

>siaopo, sampatpo, siaolang.

Huge rock formations on the left and right.

Sangat-sangat beautiful sea view at the back.

Lagi beautiful forest view in front.

BL: "Take picture. Why you so kayu wan?"

This kayu! Broke liao!

taking a dump

A construction foreman could become an international singer.

A janitor/security guard could become a layout artist at one of the most successful companies in the world.

A student could become CEO of his own (damn successful) company at age 17.

Sheeesh. I'm thinking, alright. I'm thinking damn hard.

But then again. Does thinking long and hard work? Sometimes. Some other times, the best decisions come to you spontaneously.

And if you ask me, "Are you making the right decision?"

My reply: "Is there even a right decision? A correct one?"

"There are only good or bad decisions."

-Some wise guy

Made a bad move? Sorry? Okay. Uhh so what?

Make the best out the shit you've gotten yourself into. Try. Yeah I know it's easier said than done. Still, in that sorry situation, you have a choice.

Made a good move? Well, good for you. Enjoy, coz you're bound to make a bad move sooner or later. Life ain't life if it ain't bitchy.

"Made a wrong turn, once or twice;

Dug my way out, blood or fire;

Bad decisions, that's alright;

Welcome to my silly life."

Whoever's life is perfect anyway? Yeah the Sultan of Brunei shits in a golden toilet bowl. I still think he's not entirely happy with his life. And I'm pretty sure His Majesty himself's done some pretty silly things with his life.

*Dear God, please don't let any Brunei-an read this post*

In the end, it's okay. It'll always be okay.

Just gotta crawl/roll/jump/slide/whatever style you want just freakin go through it. And don't bother preparing for what's to come. You'll manage. I'll manage.

late #3

I was barking at the older kids the other day. As usual.

*At the centre*

"Can you please pick up your pencil and write? Now!"

*Turns around*

"You! Page what now?!"

*Looks to the left*

"SHHH! Write! 5 more minutes!"

*Sits down*

"How many times have we gone through this?"

*Continues teaching*

"Yes. No. Yes. Yes. Yes."

*Gets up*

"Yes? Yes, take away 20 from this."

It's total madness!

Then suddenly.

*so-so-very-soft voice*

"Teacher Yvonne. Give you."

"AWWW"

But immediately thought,

"Have you finished your homework?"

Work.

Mehhh.

*strums*

GUITAR LAA!

:D

It was the last piece of its kind in the shop.

Mehh the boss won't give discount. He claims it's already discounted.

Brought it home and found SO MANY fingerprints on its body.

Ok it's wiped.

Looks so handsome, eyy?

Love its colour.

Love the way it sounds.

What do you call these things?

Knobs of sorts. And the things you could twist at the side.

So shiny! I sukah!

Comes with a bag.

Abudden.

No laa. Few extra ringgits for that bag.

Still cheaper than buying the bag separately.

Got all these for free!

Wheee!

Mineral oil (?) for maintenance of strings.

Piece of cloth to wipe the shiny wood surface.

Picks of different thickness? Hardness? Dunno.

button badges for rajee

So the other day Rajee a.k.a. Raja Atikah Iffah bt. Raja Shahrom

conned me into designing button badges for a campaign she's organizing.

It's to do with plagiarism.

Apa kaitan with psychology huh?

Tatau.

And we were discussing yadaa yadaa yadaa about what tagline might be catchy

while wandering aimlessly in Pyramid and I came up with this:

"I'm not plagiarizing! Am I?"

I liked it.

She loved it.

So Rajee ranted summore and hahah ok I'm joking.

She then selamba-ly asked me to come up with

designs for button badges because

"bookmarks are just so boring."

(Note: Bitchy mode; ON.)

I thought of messing around with typo.

Make it look more sophisticated and matured kan.

Coz we're UNI students now.

I like these.

I'd actually pin 'em on my bag if you gimme one.

Then Rajee randomly called me and suggested the no-entry/no-parking signs.

Turns out like this.

The one on the right is just for fun.

Humour kan.

A few days later, Rajee called again.

"Soey ah. Can put cartoon inside ah?

Make it cuuute mah-hah-hah-hah!"

Turns out like these.

I like the first pair.

I'm fine with the second pair.

I don't like the last pair.

So yeah.

Happy campaign-ing Rajee! :D

things i need to remember

#1 My appetite for life.

Just bear that in mind, okay?

Nothing else matters. And everything else will turn out awesome.
