Question:

*before u begin, you might wanna consider getting yourself some popcorn and coke. For those of you who are lazy, I, as the host of Typically Malaysian, have kindly prepared them for you. Now, enjoy...


Is a friend whom you do not like still a friend?

You see, what I mean is this.

Say, you have got this friend, whom we shall name X in this case. Let's say you've known X for the longest time in your life, you've done so many things together, so much so you're both almost like siblings, sharing toothpaste and clothes and what not.

But throughout all this while, you've secretly disliked X. Not because of something horrible that he / she has done, but simple because, you just don't really like that person. But then again, because that so called 'friendship' doesn't affect you negatively in any way, you've just continued 'being friends'.

Now, I am being a hypocrite...

You are aware and u know that you don't like X person per say, but still, you're still friends. So what happens now if other people start making comments. For instance, come one day, Y - who's another friend of yours, comes telling you that X is a [insert a bad / rude adjective] person. And deep down, you agree!

But Y knows that you're kononnya, a good friend of X. So now how??

Do you defend X and say that X is not that bad a person when deep down inside, you feel the same Y does about X.

Or,

Do you agree with Y and start back stabbing X in the back, and somehow, still remains friends with X.

Which would you do?

Also then, let's say you picked the second option, to back stab your 'fellow friend'. Now the scenario is this, X is now back and wants to buddy buddy with u again, but you're reluctant to do so because you are clearly aware that you do not like X and plus, now other people- Y also knows that you do not like X.

Now what?!

Hmm. I don't know lah really. I sometimes think that people shouldn't fake things and be honest, but in this case, what if honesty isn't the best policy?!

On a totally different note. I do envy people with super high self esteem and who are super confident and are so assured of themselves. These people make me feel small and helpless.

When I come across people like the above, I sometimes wonder, what life might be like for them. You know what I mean?

These people must living each and everyday of their lives thinking about good things to better themselves and so on and so forth while I, live everyday thinking about other mundane stuff like, what color should I color my nails with.

Just a random example lah. Didn't mean for it to sound so dumb blondish.

Anyhow, I do wanna become a better person too. A new year resolution. I think I am gonna start with being a better grand daughter, a better daughter, a better sister and a better friend. Do you think that'll make me a better person in a whole? I sure hope so.

:) Thinking to self : A better friend... Hmmm, means u all untung lah??!! :)


Anyhow, I was also going to ask this, What type of person are you??

Are you the type who will, treat the receptionist terribly simply because he /she was not helpful when you had asked them about something, or

Would you tell yourself, "I won't let them get the better out of me, too bad if they're rude or are born evil, I will be gracious and say my thank you's and still do my very best to be nice to them".

Are you the type of person who goes grocery shopping and pick whatever you like off the shelf without checking the price and without thinking whether you really need it, or

Are you the type who will calculate every single item and see which is the better offer and then only decide if you really need it.

I've got a lot more of "what would you do", " what if's", and "which are you" questions. But haha, I think this is enough for the day.

Oh yeah, also wanted to add that my hope of finally being able to travel alone was just shattered yesterday. Sighs. Contrary to what might seem like the case, I have not actually traveled to any place alone. It was always either with the parents, or with Heng, or with a manager, or with friends, or with team members.

The closest I've ever got to traveling alone was probably the trip to New Zealand in Jan this year. But still ended up traveling with Seu also.

And so I was so looking forward to flying to Langkawi this time, alone! What, Langkawi also traveling alone lah okay, I very poor, can only ill afford a trip to Langkawi at the moment. But wait and you shall see lah. Next time it won't just be Langkawi... it'll be.... Phuket. Hhhahaha, Japan / UK / China all those will have to wait till I start earning my own money lah, then we'll talk.

So anyway, coming back to travelling alone. So yeah lor, basically, won't be traveling alone again. A fellow friend will be tagging along. Oh well, it just means that I won't have to worry about missing my 9 o'clock flight on the Sunday morning.

Hope you enjoyed your imaginary popcorn and coke.

OH WAITTTTT
*screams*

The most important question of all... WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING ON NEW YEARS EVE??

One last question, a-not-so-important one. Hmmmm... How do you tackle the growth of baby hair??!

Saturday, December 27

Just a couple of things.

First and foremost, thank you for all the gifts and presents and cards and sms wishes (some of which I have already replied, some of which I have not). It's a little late but nevertheless... Blessed Christmas to all!

Secondly, am hoping to keep my hair long this time around. Let's see how long I can keep it this once. Am thinking of braiding it again next year.

** Kevin, faster plan to go Bali or Phuket next year! Can braid hair for damn cheap there!!

Thirdly, Ai Li sudah 'lat p'! This calls for a major celebration... :)

Fourthly, uhm uhm... lost my train of thought d.

Adui, been eating so much, I don't dare weight myself on the scale. Faster lose all the fats lorh aili ng!!

I finished Air City liao. Didn't like the ending, but it was a worth while watch lah I'd say. One thing I remember clearly, one lesson rather, is that "You have to stand up from where you fell/fall??...". Made me think and reflect about certain things in the past and about how I wished things were different. Then again, the past is the past kan?

Hee, tmr and the day after shopping again! With the mom!! Whee... Can see me smiling from ear to ear or not?!

Okay lah okay lah, wanna go watch all the videos I've been streaming.

Sayonara!!

Apa Jadi?

First it was my Facebook.

Then now it's blogger!

Both accounts of mine are going wonky. :(

Wonder if it's just happening to me or is it a www thing?
(www = whole wide world)

I know I was into Big Bang quite some time back, posting both my favorite videos of theirs - Last Farewell & Lies.

But now, I am soooooo into Top (most left in the last pic). Must be the influence of I am Sam.

He's wayyyyy wayyyyy cool lah! And he beatbox's, apparently.

It's rather amazing how I never bothered to notice who was who before, I think they all looked alike ( like in the first pic). But that's up until now lah, nyehe. :)

But the show is just plain weird, didn't finish it. "Neh, not worth its while.." I figured after a good 5 episodes. So now, I am onto Air City.

If you didn't like Choi Ji Woo in Winter Sonata, give her a second chance with this. But then again, I am only at epi 4, by far.
* Love(ing) her attire(s) though.

Today's been a happy day, for no apparent reason, maybe it's the new pairs of shoes from Nose. Maybe. :)

You know what sucks??

A WHOLE LOT OF THINGS!

For instance...

Yesterday, it sucked cause I felt totally anti-social and was experiencing one of those 'low self esteem' moments at a particular function.

It also sucked when I had to make plans and did not complete the task of calling all the guest(s) on the list.

It also sucks when you see photos of friends having fun in Thailand, Phuket, Bali, etc on Facebook.

It also sucks when there's so little gifts under the Christmas tree when Christmas is only 4 days away.

It feels sucky too, when one is broke. :(

So many things to feel suck-y about. Sighs...
:*(


Nevertheless, I didn't find getting lost while driving to be sucky. I thought it was quite fun, like adventure like that. But no lah, I do not hope to get lost all the time.

I enjoyed the Apple Cinnabon I had at 12 midnight last night, it was yummylicious.

Point of this post?

Na da. :)

I lapar..

I've got so many things to do today!
So much so it's not funny anymore.

:(

I am so serious, I have at least 9 urgent matters I need to attend to by the end of today.

...but anyhow, I am still enjoying every bit of the holidays! :)

Thursday, December 18

Hello hello!

:)
Missed me a lot huh!?

Anyway, to start off with, PD was fun (more than fun actually, but I don't know what's the word for more.than.fun), so.

[because I am still waiting for the complete set of photos to sync in my sharing folder,
the photos will be added later on]


I could not have asked for a better trip to end the year of 2008 with the uni mates. It was awesome, the frisbee, the steamboat, the seafood lunch, the company! Everything was awesome!!

<3 each and everyone of you ppl to the very bits!
** Sharon Kong, though you weren't with us, I do love u very much too!

So, that's that. And guess what have I been up to lately? Apart from sleeping late and getting up late and commenting on the photos in Facebook...

Nehe. Just finished Three Dads One Mom. Loved it! Fan girl talking: I lurvee Eugene! I love watching her shows, I think she's one great actress, pretty and versatile and hilarious in her own ways. End of fan girl talking.

Yep so, next up, am still deciding between I am Sam / Let's go to the Beach / Hong Gil Dong... Hm, maybe I'll just watch them all in one go! Hee.

Taylor Swift is pretty!! Don't u agree!? Have u seen Love Story on YouTube, if u have not, u better.

And Alex Pettyfer is absolutely adorable, Emma is one lucky lucky girl.. I is jealous sangat.

Wild Child reminded me of something. I caught myself smiling to myself throughout the show. Hmmm, sometimes I wonder.

I had wanted to create my own Chirstmas wishlist too... but, I realized that I don't exactly have anything that I want at the moment. So, I'll save the list for next year's Christmas. Or maybe for my 21st birthday next year which falls on the 5th of June!! :))))

You should be writing that down in you diary / phone / calender. Or engrave it in your brain or something.

Heng's bald. Ugh. Ugly. Ugh. I don't care that he's my brother, he's ugly now! And besides, he doesn't read my blog. Heng's UGLY!

Okay, videos are done streaming. Happy holidays yo` Love.

Move on.

Before all else, me will be on a hiatus for a bit.
*Refer to definition number 1.

I realized one thing lately.
I am not a fan of Change.
Nope, am not fond of changes, at all.

I have to.must learn to move on.

[Exams! They don't scare me that much really, but considering how I have been fairing throughout the semester, exams is/are a call for worry this time, a big one].

:|

Oh damn!

I was to book my Langkawi flight tickets but didn't get around doing so because I don't only procrastinate when it comes to assignments and studying.

And guess what?

The price just increased by RM40! In like, 3 days!

Cilaka sangat.

```````
My Visa just got 'hacked'!!
Is 'hacked' even the right term to use??

Apparently someone "used my card" to purchase RM200 worth of flowers yesterday.

Sui
sangat.

Bits and Pieces, Chapter I

A somebody once said to me:

One only b*tches about another someone,
if he / she is jealous of that someone.

Makes sense don't you think?
