jo, faan jin, cheryl and i went ice skating today.
i'd been ice skating a couple of times in sunway pyramid before, so i would consider myself ok on ice. ok as in i rarely fall. haha...
the last time i was on ice, i tried to learn putting one foot directly in front of the other (forming a straight line), which is actually wayyy harder than in sounds. i fell and hit my head, ending that ice skating session for me. lol.
this time, i tried skating on one foot for as long as i could. and i ended up learning this: ok, without the pizazz, and my leg a little lower with my body slightly inclined forward, but basically doing an 'attitude' (ballet term. go google =p).
whee!!! im so proud of myself! :D
i can do this too, but im still not too good at it. not enough confidence and balance :(
food: i can get quite excited about food. so if u tell me we're gonna eat *insert type of food eg. french* then suddenly cancel plans. this is akin to taking candy from a baby... nearly literally! i find it super potong steam when i get all psyched to eat certain food then suddenly the plan is cancelled, or changed to eat different food that i like less than what i was pyshed for. T_T (btw, i realized that the 2 above sentences are similar in content. coz im redundant like that. wtf)
oh and if i expect food to be good, but it is crappy, or comes with rude/crappy service, its very potong too!
sleep: im quite the owl. i'd rather stay up late than wake up early. so i choose carefully what i wake up early for. early is anything b4 12pm. haha. so i get rather upset when i wake up early for something, get dressed and ready, then get told that either something is cancelled, or that someone will be late (i know im always late myself, but u guys dont have my sleeping patterns. and this only applies for mornings. other times, im just relieved that im not the one thats late this time. wtf) coz i could have been sleeping!
as im sure most of u know by now, i buy most of my stuff off ebay. coz im cheap like that. wtf
but i just found an even cheaper site! do check it out if you're cheap like me =p
dont say i never share ah...

i've used to have a problem with acne which has cleared considerably over the years. however, i've been getting a few on areas of my face recently. and i consider it serendipity that this got sent to my email. its a newsletter i subscribed to, and it was such a coincidence that they covered the topic of what pimples on certain parts of your face could mean. so if you're curious, do check it out.
***************
i was feeling rather depressed earlier because i think i did crap for my negotiation exam, so on my way home i bought some of my happy cookies to cheer me up. however, i was still feeling a little low, so i went on fail blog to laugh at other peoples misfortunes so that i could feel better. wtf .
and i feel much better now :D
celebration fail: everytime i see this face, i burst out laughing. seriously cannot tahan.
at least he has layers
wedding reception fail:
hahahahahahaha
this is quite a disaster really if it were to happen. all the poor aquatic animals!
i wonder if it were possible to erect something to stop the flow of water before it ran dry. but the force of the rushing water would be immense!
yea, i really want my child to excel in hyperactivity, clumsiness and learning disability.
helmet fail:
i took me awhile to realize what was wrong with this picture. o.m.g. take the kids away!
have you ever felt that the more you studied, the stupider you got?
the more i study, the more stupid i feel myself to be.
i never felt this inadequate in high school.
i never had panic attacks prior to exams in high school either (*conveniently disregards the fact that the panic attacks could have been avoided if i started studying earlier and was more prepared.* wtf)
i've been on a song spree recently. i've been trying to find old songs that i used to really really love.
and by "really really love" i mean i played it incessantly and tried to find the english translation of the lyrics.
the lyrics are soo sweet! *melts*
ok la, the common thing about the old chinese songs that i loved is that the lyrics moved me and never failed to make me melt ;)
brief translation of "ai te lu sang ce you wo he ni":
im not sure when i started liking you every night i'd come to see you you're so pretty how could i not look at you if i cant see you i'd lose myself
really wanna hold your hand go through hardships whatever the hardships, i'd accompany you *insert 2 lines that i dunno the meaning to* the road of love only has the both of us
im not sure when i started liking you every night i'd come to see you you're so pretty how could i not look at you if i cant see you i'd lose myself
sometimes you are really naughty always making me [worry?] one heart always beating for you just close my eyes and there would be a [million?] yous
your [silhouette?] is engraved in my mind cant not think of you also cant forget you always seeing you in my dreams really wanna tell you i really do love you dont distrust my heart anymore
(really wanna hold your hand go through hardships whatever the hardships, i'd accompany you *insert 2 lines that i dunno the meaning to* the road of love only has the both of us) x2
____________________________
not bad ler! considering that i translated all that myself! err... it prolly has a gazillion mistakes, so feel free to correct me =p
with lyrics like that, how can one not melt you tell me!
here's another song of richie's that i love:
the lyrics for this is sadder:
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
crying alone till the sun rises you [blindly] love that person i know that you are really not that strong
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
shouldering all the problems alone wanting love to always be simple *something* is too difficult if its not yours dont keep forcing it
why dont you want to sleep yet are you're still thinking of him/her you keep [going on like this?] arent you tired you know he/she wont return to comfort you
just want to properly love someone too bad they cant give you [insert word]
[3 difficult lines. my mandarin is beginnger level only k!] let it go just forget it like this let go of what you should even if you keep thinking about it, there's no use
stupidly waiting he/she wont return should think for your own future
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
crying alone till the sun rises you [blindly] love that person i know that you are really not that strong
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
shouldering all the problems alone wanting love to always be simple *something* is too difficult if its not yours dont keep forcing it
why dont you want to sleep yet are you're still thinking of him/her you keep [going on like this?] arent you tired you know he/she wont return to comfort you
just want to properly love someone too bad they cant give you [insert word]
[3 difficult lines. my mandarin is beginnger level only k!] let it go just forget it like this let go of what you should even if you keep thinking about it, there's no use
stupidly waiting he/she wont return should think for your own future
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
crying alone till the sun rises you [blindly] love that person i know that you are really not that strong
your heart melts too easily melts too easily
shouldering all the problems alone wanting love to always be simple *something* is too difficult
(if its not yours dont keep forcing it) x 5 _____
not the best of translations, but whatever la, you get the gist of it.
i've been watching the duke of mount deer (2000), dicky cheung's version.
i've always liked that version :) and i finally got around to watching it.
but at very unfortunate timing. with my exams literally just around the corner, i've been rushing to finish the 40 episodes because i know i wont be able to concentrate till im done with the series.
luckily, i managed to finish the last episode tonight.
here's a song i wanted to share with you all.
i was soo obsessed with it the first time i heard it yonks ago. and surprise surprise, i still love it ;)
well, if u consider rm20 cheap that is. but at 4pounds, im pretty sure its cheaper than at any other place in the uk.
jo and i ate at the the malaysian hall today.
we stay so near, but have never went there for normal meals before. so why not try it? its cheaper than eating out at other places anyway.
the chicken in the nasi lemak sucked though. damn hard and dry. fail.
but that didnt stop me from buying some chap fan home for dinner. 2 dishes and rice for 3.80pounds. not bad! for my dishes, i had a fish n a lamb. quite worth it i'd say.
so the next time im broke and craving malaysian food (or just broke and die die wanna eat out), im definitely coming back.
its so malaysian, even the canteen lady was talking about malaysian politics and special rights (she thought lowly of anuar coz according to her, he wanted to give away their special priviledges. and no, she wasnt speaking to me, she was speaking over my shoulder to a man. but i understand malay la!)
