It was obvious. He made it more complicated.

FAST and eventful. That was my weekend. Chubbs is still here, came down for the weekend. BDSSW successfully organised a Raya gathering last Saturday. It was all about food, kueh2!, pictures, karaoke and lucky draw... which i've never won ANY in my entire life and will possibly never do. I like to think of it in the way that im lucky every else where, just not the 'lucky' draw itself =P

Then some of us went to watch 'Saw 3' that night. Coming from someone who gets freaked out at smallest things... it was quite a good movie. Psychotic... but the twist was great. It started out slow though. Im proud to say that i've survived wathing ''Saw 1, 2 and 3"... hehe =D Im yet to watch 'The Last Kiss' zach braff <3 and rachel bilson <3 ... and i heard 'Prestige' is good!

Colum people held their open house the next day. More food! Yup... that's what Raya is all about. Umie wasnt there though, unfortunately she had to work. Left her a note though keke. Umie! XOXO you ;P

One week of raya passed.... only that Sunday, i felt the actual raya spirit. Went over to Wyverne after that... then rushed home to prepare for them coming over. It was a great day. Jerry finally came over after a while. Ohh btw... Jer, i know u read my blog .. So

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! ;) LANJA! MASAKKKKK!! =D Hope you liked the cake.

Between all that .... my time was spent with Chubbs. Which meant.... Tenkaichi (TWICE in 3 days) and Cafe Minuet. Constantly feeding him... haha! =P It's alwez nice having him around. He keeps me grounded. Wish he could stay longer. But yeah.. we have priorities. I just need someone to fill my lonely nights.

I think my room is too depressing. Im constantly sad whenever im in the room alone. It sucks. I think im gona have to change it around a bit. Starting with brigther lightings. Then some flowers. Then a keyboard would be great. Haha.. but i seriously am thinking of getting a nice keyboard. But.. one - money kapishhh .. two - i dont have any more space for it.

Alright... im off to bed. Group meet tomorrow. Blahhhh..

He said he'd be there for her

I got bored and downloaded some random music. Its fun =D I feel hyper, i dont know why.. so i dont really feel like sleeping. I got nothing to do. Ok that's a lie.. i got my project brief to do, but i just dont have the mood. Damn! I should be doing that... maybe after this.

Man... i really gota learn to save money. I should get myself a "Save money for the dumb" book. Or maybe i should actually just spend less, meaning eat out less. But how can someone just say 'no' to Starbucks and Minuet? especially since its not fasting month anymore. Hehe.

I dont really go to arcades, until yesterday. There was this one surf shop that i could just spend my days there. Seeing the sweet skateboards, snowboards and especially the surf boards.. made me want to have that life. I seriously want that life! If Brunei had huge waves... i probably would have that life by now. Hehe. But on the other hand.. im grateful that Brunei doesnt have huge waves.. it'll just be a disaster. Nauzubillah! I wana go to Bali and surf!!

Got my stuffs from anuar's parents already. Thank you!! =D

Bah.. i better be doing that project brief now. My classmate asked if i could finish doing the project before christmas.. im like... ur kidding rite? He actually thinks we could.. he emphatized on "..if you put a lot of time into it" though.. so i guess i wont be finished that early. It would be great if i do =D Okay. noite! <3

Winding road that has taken me to places i didnt want to go

Just got off the phone with the family. Finally got to talk with my dad <3 I didnt really want to disturb them beraya-ing, but i just had to talk to papah. They were at a second cousin's place. Typical first day of raya back home i guess. Loud, lively and busy. ohh.. and food! They said ada ayam pandan and ati buyah.. eek! sia sia pun =S Hehe.

Had another group meet tadi. I feel good, cos i did something that they seemed really happy about. I like this group. Not that serious.. just the way i like it.

I just found out whose dad is bringing my stuffs from my mom. Cant wait! I think he's arriving tomorrow. You know what... i cant wait to show my family around here. My dad and aimi were here though before, but it was only for a week and that was mostly spent shopping! I cant wait for them to come next year, insyAllah <3

The day is pretty today. I think im gona go for a walk. Taaa~

There's a lack of colour here.

Day 1 of Aidilfitri. What did i do to celebrate such festive day? ..... Spent the whole day at home *sigh* But then, people came over to raya.. so that's alright. I didnt have the mood to sit down in lectures today. Plus, i wanted to call them back home, cos i knew they'd all gather at Lambak. Yup.. they did. And apparently, everyone came back for raya! Im soo jealous! But im glad they're enjoying themselves. One more year santy.. one more... ;(

It was great talking to everyone.. well almost everyone. Papah wasnt there when i called. He was told to buy some drinks. So i just texted him. I miss my dad =( Ohh.. Little Fifi said hi to me! hehe! <3 Mummy said that dorang open house on the 3rd day. Damn.. i miss home badly!

Oh well... at least Chubbs is coming over this weekend. Thanks about last night sayang. <3

For now .... back to work! *sighhhhhh*

I sailed off to sea, im not coming back.

I feel so .. i dont know... not at ease. I know people have gone thru it longer and have actually dealt with it. But .. 3 years of not Raya-ing back at home with ALL my family... i REALLY miss it u know. Im happy that they're enjoying it... everyone's in the raya spirit already. I am too.. but i still wish i was home. And i wish i had a week off to enjoy Raya. Hehe.

Just incase you didnt know.. Raya's tomorrow here. And it falls on Tuesday for those in Brunei. Takbir Raya later tonight. Oh shucks... I will have to pull myself together. Hehe.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI EVERYONE!!
Maaf zahir dan batin. Please forgive me if ever i have done anything wrong to any of you, intentionally or non-intentionally *hehe* And HALAL kan everything for me that have past. <3


The past couple of days have been sweet. I finally met with my supervisor on Friday. I can already tell that she's gona be awesome and VERY helpful. Such a relief =D Then met up with Umie to eat at Minuet. We were both craving for it. The place changed. Its bigger now. I like it. We've been fighting out cravings since the both of us cant Puasa, Women problems as you would imagine. Yesterday was Starbucks and people watching! Heee! Beautiful people <3

My unlimited UGC card is proving me of how worth it was to make one. This week only, 3 movies so far. 'Grudge 2' was erkk.. i have no words for it. I dont want to talk about it ahhh ahhh.... Im still scared! Paluii!~!! Last night was 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre: the beginning"... it was either that or "The Last Kiss"... then we met Jacky along Crwys. They were gona watch Chainsaw. So might as well watch that together. I seriously regretted that now.. But violent psycho movies are still better than creepy horror movies that will haunt and bother you for the rest of your lives! Hahaha!
Ohh.... Matthew Bomer <3



Oh aimi.... nah! Just for your sake... Nathan Leone has pretty eyes .. hehe



Bah.. i have to go do what i gotta do before tonight. Whole day's class tomorrow. *Sigh* What a way to spend raya.. hehe.

Emo crap

Don't you get annoyed when people dont appreciate you? That a simple 'Thank You' would sound so great right about now! What do you do when you feel like people take you for granted and are disrespectful of your feelings? Then it annoys you even more when they talk to you like nothing's wrong, yet you dont say anything because unlike them, you respect their feelings. And dont want to start anything. But it just really gets on your nerves... and you feel like exploding.

Im sorry. Maybe its the unstable hormones talking here. But some people are just so selfish, self absorbed and ignorant! That you just wana knock their head so that they can actually be aware of what's around them beside themselves.

Im not gona dwell on this. Because, people like these.. they're just not worth your time and effort. Besides, you have those people who are actually there for you and have always been there when u need them.

I need the rest, my angel.


Remember him? The hottie from evanescence's video. Apparently, his name is Oliver Goodwill. He's 23 ;) And he's in my space. HERE! And has his own website too (still under construction though) HERE!

I think i have a crave for hotties. Yetah, i sanggup search for them. Like him! (pics below). He's Scarlett Johansson's TWIN brother.. i know! They'd look cute as a couple to be honest. Haha! Bah look...



Anyways, things have slowly paced down i guess. My life that is. And i like this pace. Im actually enjoying it. Academics aside of course. Projects still giving me a hard time. I havent even met my supervisor. Hopefully tomorrow. Then i can sort it all out and decide on a plan. *sigh*

Raya... *sigh* ... every year, it will finally kick into me that raya's coming when MY MOM SENDS ME RAYA E-CARDs! She sent two to be exact. One was funny. The other one had 'Takbir Raya' as its background. Tarus i exit the page, cos im damn sensitive to hear that especially when im wayyy aawayyyy from home. Wont you?? Im already sad enough, so sad that im scared to call home. How stupid is that!? I know! Blahhh...

Shucks.. i wana be home ='( Chubbs will only be coming down next weekend.. insya Allah. *Sigh* Ok... i suck at this. So im gona stop here. Cos u'll only be reading about me whining .. so i'll save u the time... haha.. Alrite then. Wish me luck... for whatever =P =D

Go back to where you belong.

Was out with umie tonite, dinner n movie. Watched 'World Trade Center'. Wasnt as depressing as i thought it would be. Nicholas Cage has lost a LOT of weight! Probably something to do with his role in an upcoming movie.. 'Ghostrider'. Maybe? Cant wait for that.

'The Last Kiss' and 'Grudge 2' out this weekend. ('Saw III' is next weekend i think) Anyone? But then again... Liat anak bulan is this Saturday, or so i was told. Meaning Raya is either Sunday or Monday. Erk =S I feel SO sad and homesick again. 3 years without celebrating such a festive season back home. Sucks badly!

Papah FINALLY made a hotmail account and FINALLY got around to use msn. HAHA! I know! Before this, i chatted with my parents thru my sister's account. Oh, they told me that our tv blew up today. I really dont know how that would happen. But it did. New tv!!... Jangan alang2 ahh!! Heee! =D

Oh man... something in me is telling me that im gona feel REALLY homesick this raya. Dammit! I've tried to NOT think about it. But... *sigh* I really wanted to go back for raya this time. With 2 projects in hand.. i dont think so ='( Aunty Laila will be back this Sunday. Im so jealous! But she hasnt been home for a while, so she deserves to spend at least Raya there.

Mummy said she sent some kuih raya already. And my 2 other baju raya too. And that the rest of the kuih raya, she'll kirim to her friend who's coming to Cardiff i think!

Oh btw,

AIMI, GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR A LEVEL EXAMS! DO GOOD AND COME TO CARDIFF! ;D

Bah, im going to sleep. I got class tomorrow. Shit... i have 3 hours of energy studies tomorrow. Nyeh!! Noite people <3

You showed me what you wanted me to see.

Ok. i've gone against my own beliefs and ... coloured my hair. It was suppose to be red highlights but then we stopped after bleaching it cause it looked sweet already. Umie did a pretty good job


I slept over at Colum friday night when umie did my hair. I missed spontaneous sleepovers. I went home early the next day cause we had the election meeting at Llandaff and i had to shower. Hehe. Congratulations for the new commitee! So.... raya gathering? hehe ;)

After meeting, some of us went to town. The plan was to watch a movie.. but nothing good that we havent watched was playing. So we just went around town til sungkai and pigged out again at Pizza hut. There was 12 of us .. so yeah, obviously we took 3 sets for the feast for 4 people. Thinking that we could finish all of it. THEN! The kitchen made a mistake, we got one wrong large pizza and got that for free. So we had one EXTRAextra large pizza. And no, we didnt finish.. hehe.

Ohh.. i have this! Everyone signed the pizza box =D

Then we watched 'The Guardian'... *Sigh* Ashton Kutcher. He was really cute in that movie. *sigh* hehe. It was a really good movie too. I cried *sniff*sniff* =P By then everyone was tired, i slept over at Umie's again. We were both already tired. We watched 'Family Guy' the movie sekajap saja when we decided to switch it off and go to sleep. Hehe.

So here i am.. back at home. Gona take my shower. Do some chores. And karang go back to Colum cause ada sungkai and meeting for the netball girls. But before that... i promised myself to do some research and do my work.

Bye now.

Some people are just plain hypocrites!

I know its nothing to be proud of... but i missed my first class of the term today. I only had one 50-minute class at 9 tadi, and i couldnt wake up because of a headache.. and yes, im sick. I probably jinx-ed it. Nyeh. My nose is stuck, which im not even sure if i really have a cold. It feels different.

Went out with the housemates tadi afternoon to watch 'The Departed'. Apparently it was remake of this chinese movie which Jay Chou was in (i think!). Thumbs up though. Cept for the excessive swearing and blood bath. Every sentence probably had the fuck word ... even ladidoo became "La di fucking doo" .. i laughed everytime i heard that.. haha =P

Im now stuffed of CC and cake. I think i've had too much sugar... i feel a headache coming. Erk! I can stand having a cold or a fever... but i definitely CANT stand headaches! I cant miss school tomorrow. I have another group meeting. Shucks! Everytime i think about my projects, i feel like i wana kill myself. LOL! But seriously... one project was enough.. but no~ they HAD to give another one. Blahh!

The AGM meeting is this saturday. I hope more people come. There are definitely more people in Cardiff than those who showed up last Saturday. Oh people... do come and meet me, or at least everybody else.. haha =P Hope to see you there ;)

The notes are old

I feel so tired. I think im coming down with something :S My throat feels funny and i've been sneezing. I might have gotten it from school, everyone was either coughing off their germs to the classroom air or blowing out their nose.. i know.. gross rite? Well.. that's how it is here. Bleurgh!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KA DEW-DEW! * huggiess *

Yesterday, we had people over and celebrated siah's birthday. Bawee bought her TWO nyummy CHOCOLATE birthday cakes. But i was toooo stuffed to eat a whole slice. Come to think of it... there's still some in the fridge.. gona get some after this.. hee! =D Ohh.. we had ambuyat =D Loves it!

I had dinner at Colum tadi. Umie, u make nyummy lasagne! Hehe. Mwah! <3 We watched umie's video of when airholes went to Singapore to perform. I regretted not going. I miss my poojas *sniff* Seriously, i dont think i'll have time to go back this december or anytime this term. *sniff* I just got Fadhil's number like 30 mins ago.. and tarus texted him.. hee! Jimmy's here in UK as well. Hope to be seeing them. Hadi as well. <3

You know what i realized.... I hardly watch any tv lately. Even my downloads. I somehow lost my mood to watch anything. Except movies at the cinema of course. Bah lakastah liat movie... anyone? anyone? Last movie i watched was 'Children of Men'.. which i tot the ending was disappointing.

Ehhh awu.. I feel the urge to mention what i did during my weekend. Saturday lah... We had our BDSSW meeting, mostly introduction. Then a few of us went to watch the Wales match against Slovakia at the Millenium Stadium, where they played crap and lost 5-1.

Then me, umie, nira, maul, reena and halim pigged out at Pizza hut. How does 8 starters, 2 large pizzas, 2 medium pizzas and 8 desserts (all for 10pounds each) sound? LOL! And that's for 6 people. Imagine that! =P

Ok... im suppose to read my notes for my group discussion tomorrow. Goodnight!

Cute Paramore on Madina Lake ;)

Ok .. here they are .. pictures =D

So it started of with Madina Lake... which i havent heard of, only until last nite. And the lead guitarist said Hi to us when we just came, but we seriously didnt know he was in the band until some girls went gaga over him and wanted to talk to him. Haha.. kesian.

Introducing Madina Lake




Then Cute is What We Aim For performed. The lead guitarist i like =D



Finally... Paramore! Hayley <33>



Hayley wore a t-shirt that said "Paramore is a band" hehe. And yes.. she was on the keyboard. Such talent. *sigh* I have tonnes of videos but im too lazy to set it all up to up here hehe =P

Bah sudah tah ahh... enough excitement. I actually dreamt that i went in Paramore's bus and hung out with them. Tsk tsk tsk. Loser. HAHAHA! =P

On a serious note, i sent in my project form earlier today. Erk! Tawakal saja. I hope it all goes well. My first choice was somehow more to computer and internet. Hmm... i just hope that the topic given will be ..err... do-able.. More importantly, score-able. I just read that if we failed our individual project... we wont be given a honours degree.. just a degree. Eeeeekkk! =X

Alrite. Mwah! <3

Listening for ur voice from every corner

I woke up late and rushed to school to find out that the class was cancelled. Actually i arrived right on the dot... but the lecturer wasnt there, but everybody else was. I ended up talking nonsense with Marc.. for like half an hour til everyone started going out. Im hoping Marc's still in my design group this term. Kevin didnt make it thru last year... its a shame tho, it was fun having him in the group.

I got a 9am class tomorrow. The only day that starts this early. The rest are 10am's or later. Nice ey. But damn long breaks between classes. Tomorrow i got another 2hr break. I'll probably go down to the bus station to register for my monthly bus pass. I got one already for this month... i only have to register for the direct debit one.. which is quite cheaper.

I like the fact that i have a bus pass and can go anywhere by bus without having to worry about saving money.. even if its a stop away.. hahahah. And i love the pic on my bus pass. But i hate the fact that uwic rider is only 185pounds for the whole year. Which is wayyyyyy cheaper and worth it. Im seriously gona overuse this bus pass.. hahaha.

Im going thru the list of courses for my possible masters next year. I dont know which road i should take. Its either a course i think i still wana pursue... or the course which i think will sell me in the working world. Hmm... blahh... i got time. I still have to choose my project topic and finish my degree first... haha.

Ok i gota sleep. Yup.. its early. My body clock is pretty messed up... im alwez sleepy but alwez fighting. Im surprised that i didnt fall sick this time. Im happy.. hehe. Alrite... noite! <3

School's school

Here i am.. First day back at school and already, i have 2 hours break to kill til my next class. I think Monday mornings are bound to be heavy. Pfft! I had an hour of Robotics and 2 hours of Business Management. Nyeh!

So i had a very busy weekend... Fun i might add! As i mentioned earlier, chubbs came down to Cardiff. He went back just this morning. I went to school, he went to the train station. How sad. *sigh*

So what did i actually do? Sungkai feasts.. i like =D Movie. Newbies. Ikea. I bought everything useful! ;D I bought like a shelf for the kitchen. The kitchen was a mess. Not enough storage. Lets just say everything was everywhere. So i... with my ever so lovely helper, chubbs (THANK YOU!) ... cleaned out the kitchen yesterday. It looks pretty awesome and luas-er now. Im so happy. Hehe. I guess it's safe to say that my room is now quite clean and organised too... haha.

Allowance just came in today. Heeee! =D Check your bank accounts people. Then go shopping! Haha. But... i gota save money! I, santy, vow to spend less on clothes and save a LOT of money for future purposes. (Stop laughing.. im serious LOL!) =P

Raya in less than 3 weeks. Hmmm.... im yet to receive a parcel from my mom. Bah... im gona go dulu. U know what... they should make a room for people to sleep when they have free times like i have now. Blahhh... i hate having to do nothing in between classes!
