The boys are using my PSP and playing Worms on it. -_- They practically hijacked the thing.
Huda and I made a batch of cornflakes cookies each, and then the boys ate 'em up. Haha.. And now we're all watching Sense and Sensibility, Hugh Grant is making such an ass of himself. Hahaha.. And Snape actually looks hot! :|
Gah. Elenor, you stupid girl. *stamps around*
Okay. I should watch this, then go to bed. Early morning tmr.
I took a good look at the past prelim papers for IBM, and right now, at 7.42am, I have NO idea if it's still a good idea to go for today's mocks.
*pulls at face*
I have 2 choices.
1) Fall completely apart and just give up for today, and not darken that hallway later...
or
2) Go there, sit for 20 minutes and stare at the paper, write pointless answers I know are never going to be marked, then leave the room.
Hmm.
I think the worst is still to come. (and by worst, I mean everything including tempers, moods, behaviour, all that jazz)
I re-read blogposts from '07 and '06 - the Feb- March entries, and I have to say.. I was still pretty relaxed then.
Maybe it's got to do with this being the final sprint.
Or maybe it's got to do with the fact that there's only 2 papers left. Two miserable papers in my opinion.
My past April entries don't do it either. Where is the b*tching and moaning and groaning and whatnots? (and I know I participated in a lot of that)
Then again, maybe it's due to the fact that I did not have a job then.
Hmm. Okay. It's settled. Instead of going for the mocks today, I shall simply be a wonderful person and go to the library at JE today.
And then, just maybe, I can participate in that other mock next Saturday. (which should be the one I ought to mug for)
I wish I could put work on hold, and if it were not for the stupid CPF dateline, I SO would. But I do have responsibilities to my clients and in this case, there is no choice. Argh. It's driving me kablooey.
Hence, I could :
1) Do everything and see that everything is in place before March starts (and before I start panicking even more)
or
2) Well, there's not much choice. I have to do the above.
Oh God, this is INSANE. I am officially going nuts on my blog.
This is me, hyper-ventilating/panicking.
Please help me God.
~*~
I shall go get ready to go out and do whatever it is that needs doing.
I apologize for Shelby, she promises to try and not let her tongue (and fingers) get the best of her. Wow. That sounds damn wrong, but Shelby apologizes too nevertheless.
I hope Shawn doesn't misbehave anymore in class, or else, Shelby will try to give him a run for his money (again.)
:) I shall not talk about Ethan since you're not very acquainted with him yet. In fact, you seemed to actually resist his existence. Hahaha.. Never mind, all in good time.
I don't know what it is about today, but I reckon the tears were much much needed. :) It's probably all the pent up.. nonsense.
And so when I saw this video of a guy giving out free hugs, I succumbed to the tears. February is ending, and as always, IT is looming.
One last push. That's all I need. One more. And then we're all home free. (for a good 2 years at least.)
It'll be funny if Hafiz and Huda go to Uni together. Wahahaha.. Imagine that.
Anyways. I should sleep. I need to study tomorrow. You know, since the IBM mock paper is on Monday after all.
I wish I could feel like this :
... every day.
Good night world...
And to you : (hehehe...) 3 Years and 9 Months. Weeeow. You join the line of the getting richer You keep your pace but it's movin' slow You are defined by all that you have hoarded But you're surprised it doesn't fill up the hole.
Went to Wirna's chalet for her birthday with Farhan's cikgu-cikgis.. :D Had lots of fun, lots of laughs.. particularly at the boys. Hahaha.
There's promise of another trip, so I shall be looking forward to that. Haha..
Ok. Nothing else to report. Life is hectic, yet wonderful at the same time. Exams are looming. Which threatens to put a damper on my mood, but nevermind. I will persevere!
Hahaha. On googling this, I found out that it's quite an old post, 2 years old actually. But quite underrated since yours truly hasn't read it till last night. Hahaha. It didn't even need to force any laughter from me, as you will experience in a short while.
Gua [goo-wah] noun – What some mats and minahs use to call themselves. Similar in using “lu” when referring to others. A legacy that dates back to the times of Mat Rocks back in the early 80s.
A common trick that can be played on Mats is to ask them to translate the English phrase “Monkey Cave” into Malay. The mat will then say “Gua Monyet” (I'm a monkey).
Mat [mat] noun – To the rest of the world, the word simply means a Malay guy. But within the Malay community itself there is a growing disparity in consensus to its actual meaning. Popularly, it's used to denote a guy who converses primarily in Malay, as opposed to the more “English speaking” types. Favourites of the mats include tapered jeans, trucker caps and weepy Malay songs with sickeningly suicidal lyrics.
Matrep [mat-rape] noun – An extreme version of the mat. In addition to the usual mat accessories, a matrep will also come adorned with tattoos and matching body-piercings in weird corners of his body.
Minah [mee-nah] noun – An expression used to denote a Malay female. Derived from the popular Malay name, Aminah, which used to be all the rage some time ago. It was sort of the “in-thing” to name your daughter Aminah back in the 60s and 70s. In fact, legend has it that if you go to Geylang Serai market and shout “Hai Minah!” at least a quarter of the makcik population there is going to turn around and smile at you.
Picit [pee-chet] adjective – When a mat tells you to “picit” him, it does not mean that he is trying to be cheeky (or gay, if he is talking to a fellow mat). It simply means that the mat wants you to call him on his mobile. What were you thinking?
Relaksuah [ree-lek-soo-wah] adjective – Official slogan and life motto of the mats and minahs.
Sial [see- yal ] noun / adjective – A full stop in every mat's sentence. Eg: “Tadi aku nampak accident sial Rabak sial Aku tak bedek sial Kesian sial” Translation: Just now I saw an accident (full stop) It was bad (full stop) I'm not kidding (full stop) Poor guy (full stop)
In its purest form, “sial” means “jinx” but mats have refined the art of using the word to include it at the end of their every sentence. Also comes in the more polite form “siak” and “siul” for those who do not want to sound too crude.
Skank [s-kank] adjective - A favourite weird-looking dance performed by mats and minahs. Usually done at any of the various gigs that mats and minahs love to congregate at. At times, you do detect evidence of artistry in the dance but most of the time they just look like they've been possessed by the ghost of a restless retard.
Sowie [soh-wee] adjective – An expression of apology used by minahs. Commonly used in SMS and instant messaging. Actually they can just use the word “sorry” like every normal human being but minahs think that it will make them sound extra cute to deliberately talk that way. Example : “I will be late. Sowie!”
Step [se-tep] adjective – To beguile, dissimulate or impersonate something or someone that they are not. Also commonly used to describe a fellow mat or minah who acts in an arrogant manner. E.g.“Kau jangan nak step tak tahu eh?” Translation: Don't you dare feign innocence in this matter. Can also be used as a gerund e.g. “stepping”. See next entry.
Step Jambu [se-tep jam-boo] adjective - What minahs do when they are sitting alone in a train and a group of mats walk in. It is a general exercise where the minah “controls” her facial muscles and posture in a way that would make her look her best. This would usually involve looking incessantly at her handphone for no particular reason.
Stoppit [setop-eet] adjective – A general expression of intolerance and dismay. When a minah uses this phrase, be very careful for it signals that she is about to lose her cool or get very violent.
Usually directed by minahs in an annoyed manner, followed by the postfix “seh”, “siak” or “sial”. (See entry for “sial” above) Eg: Apasal ngan perangai kau hari ni? Stopitsiak! Transalation : What's up with your attitude today? Enough of it already for goodness' sake!”

*gurgles*
Haha. Oh man. I just wasted an hour reading more funny stuff. LOL. Oh well.
Ok. Must.... do.... other.... stufff.... now.... *wrenches self away from laptop*
I am of the belief that if someone's name starts with a J, he turns out to be handsome.
There's James Marsters of course, and James Marsden, and a most recent find (thanks to Anne of Green Gables) Jonathan Crombie. And Johnny Depp hello?
Haha. And yes. I know how merepek that sounds, but most of my celebrity crushes (Joseph Finnes) have names starting with a J.
(Please don't start tagging about all the ugly celebs that have names starting with J - erp. John Malkovich)
So I was telling Huda that I might name my son with a name starting with J.. and all i could come up with was.... Jamal. And Jamil. And both names turned out to mean, 'handsome'. Hahahaha.. Nonsense.
And then, of course, while googling for this post, we came up/across so many merepek names.
Huda : "You could call your kid, Jepun. And then can go, "Hey Jepun!"" -_-
And I found out that the name 'Jackson' means, Jack's son. Really. -_-
*ponders and checks time*
K. Shit. I need to sleep. Class tmr.
Night ppl! Hahaha.. and 111 views on youtube. LOL.
We've been up the whole night doing the video (which is due around 11am today. bleargh)
I've been working on the dvd cover, wanna see?
Total work time : 4 hours. (including back cover)
Here's the total dvd cover :
(click!)
Now I'm quite dazed and there's still a ton of work to do. :S Hafiz is out for the time being, the poor boy. He's been editting the video. And now Huda has taken over doing the subtitles. Erp.
Haha. And my dining table is one huge MESS.
I hope we have energy to go BBQ-ing later.
~*~
P.S : Thank you so much for taking me out today (even if it's Chinese New Year's Eve) (and even if you thought the whole Singapore is 'closed') and entertaining me with Guitar Freaks and Sweeney-Todding with me. :D Hearts to the boy who can do it all (and STILL stand my nonsense). Hehe.
Anyways, this time I cried because Anne lost her adoptive father, Matthew Cuthbert.
And as he lay dying in her arms, she said to him, "I'm sorry I wasn't the boy you wanted. I could have helped you so much more."
And Matthew said, "I never wanted a boy. I wanted only you the first day I saw you."
And then he was gone.
And I cried for a whole 15 minutes until the credits. -_-
And now I'm pissed because I don't know what happens to Anne and Gilbert Blythe. Pffffft.
Hence, I HAVE to get dad to get Anne of Avonlea/Anne of Green Gables; The Sequel.
And you know what's annoying? Anne is so much like me it's freaking scary. Haha. The only difference between us is that I think girls should invest in a little romance while Anne keeps denying her feelings for Gilbert. (hence annoying.)
What's more, her 'bosom' friend Diana is also in love with Gilbert, and hence it's doubly irritating that I have NO idea who gets him in the end. Gah. So it's either, 1) Get the darn video or 2) Get the darn book.
Ish, I have the feeling the book will go all Little Women and hand Teddy over to Amy. GAH. I always hated the fact that Jo didn't get Teddy. Freaking annoying. And hence, Diana might get Gilbert in the end. And Anne will end up married to a much older man instead of the boy who loved her since the minute he saw her.
Sigh. Excuse me, it's the hormones acting up.
OMG YAAYYYYYYYYY
Taken from Wiki :
In their second year, Gilbert proposed but Anne refused him because she thought she did not care for him the way he cared for her. Anne insisted on being friends but Gilbert said friendship was not satisfying enough. She then began liking a Roy Gardner who was perfect in every way but in the end, Anne realized she could never "really" love him because he was not a kindred spirit. He never understood a joke and she never and never will love him. Upon returning home after graduation Gilbert contracted scarlet fever (-_-) and remained weak for months, narrowly escaping death.
This episode convinced Anne that she did love him after all. "She finally realized in that moment that he belonged to her and she to him!" Soon after, Gilbert who still hadn't given up, proposed and this time the answer was 'yes'. Gilbert intended to become a doctor, so three years of engagement followed as he finished his medical course. Their married life was very happy, and as the series ended Gilbert was fifty-five and still in love with Anne Shirley.
I don't care. I want to watch this on TV.
Haha and now, for some Matthew Modine. :D
Hur hur. I don't know why I like him, I just do. Lol. Cutthroat Island is weird, and horribly done, and I LOVE IT. Hahahahahahaa. I think it's cause of how white their teeth are even when they're pirates. Lol. (i don't like Geena Davis though. she's weird) Ok. Maybe it's cause Matthew Modine makes a splendid slave slash pirate. *beams*
During a whole night of working out the front credits for the Grandparents' video, I lost my voice. Partly because we were laughing so hard - howling actually, and Sweeney Todding, and doing other merepek stuff. And all because we were testing out the mic we were using. Here's a sample of what went down :
Sing A Song of Sixpence (well, what's left of it anyway.) with yours truly on vocals, Hafiz on beat-box, and Huda on.. um. effects. Hahahaa. All the 'zing!'s are her's.
Will be back with some Sweeney Todding. And I mean Sweeney Todding. Hahaha..
Ok lah. I'll go nurse my throat with some Kung Fu Chaos. Bahaha. (did i tell you Farhan donated his lovely X-Box to my family???) Hahahahahaa..
We're currently in the process of doing this video for my grandparents' 57th Anniversary. Haha.. Brainstorming and watching videos of old boybands and old movies. (not to mention Sweeney Todd-ing again)
The kiddos are coming over tmr to read the script and stuff.. Saturday will be filming. Which means I won't have time for Mr Farhan. :(
But don't worry.. There's always Tuzki.
:D
Expect more of Tuzki. Haha. Lovable little bugger.
Wah. NSYNC boys looked quite dumb last time. Hahaha. Justin wore this really really huge ear RING. Like. I think the ring would have fit an elephant's tusk. Not kidding duude.
Okay. Now I just put on an old Shah Rukh Movie. Haha. This video is going to be a blast. :D
:D:D:D:D
