LOL...my colleague sent me the other day. Cute ah!

A Beautiful Mind

"I've made the most important discovery of my life. It's only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reasons can be found. I'm only here tonight because of you. You're the only reason I am... you're all my reasons."

















Can you believe that I've not watched the movie? Not too long ago, I bought the VCD and just had a bit of time to watch it today. Hmm...why didn't I buy the DVD instead?

Based on true events, John Forbes Nash Jr., an American mathematician, struggled with paranoid schizophrenia, to become a genius. I see he's truly a gifted individual. An inspiring movie that have touched me so deeply, partly due to my exposure with schizophrenics in the hospital. I’ve seen their individual talent, far too extraordinary from normal people like us.

This goes to show that we can become extraordinary in our own ways with determination and love to persevere and succeed in what we can do best. However, my laziness has always been the barrier for me to move further. Haha...

Anyways, last night, I had a horrible cramp on the sole of my right foot. I was alone in my room with my door closed, therefore, unable to call out to anyone for help. You have no idea how painful the cramp was. It took me more than half an hour to ease the pain. It's like the veins got really twisted and stretched all the way to my knees. That was how it felt like last night.

Poor me...

Summary of what happen during the weekend:-

Friday – 9 June 2006 – off day

I slept for almost 12 hours but woke up still feeling tired. I dunno why. So I decided to go for my facial at Takashimaya at 3pm but I was 15 mins late. Oops! The head and shoulder massage really help to relax my stiff muscles. One thing I like about this beauty parlor is that the session took almost 2 hrs. Others only took 45mins to 1hr. This is what I call value for money. Haha.

Then I was off to Ramen Ten at Far East for dinner with darling. I wonder how much mayo they had to use for all of their servings. I felt like I ate a whole jar. Really fattening!

John Williams & Richard Harvey’s World Tour at Esplanade – 7.30pm. A night I will never forget. It was awesome. Having two most talented people on stage performing live in front of you is absolutely unforgettable. And with darling beside me, makes the night more memorable.

Saturday – 10 June 2006 – AL

Went to my cousin’s engagement. She is only 24yrs old. I was still stuggling with work at that age man! How can she be getting engaged? I guess her time has come.

Guess what? Her fiance is related to the famous Aziz Satar. The celeb’s younger brother is in fact her fiance’s grandfather. Let’s see which other celebrity will join the family. Haha.

Sunday – 11 June 2006 – rest day

I was in a dilemma today. Should I go or not? Well, I did. My uncle persuaded me to go. It was my ex’s and his younger sister’s wedding day. Went with my parents, uncle, aunty and we met my uncle’s twin brother there. Looks like a family outing huh? You know, I just wished the day would be over soon, that’s all. I just wanna get outta there in a flash.

You may wonder why the whole family was invited. Firstly, I knew N since 1996. However, we broke up peacefully and we are still friends, not enemies. Secondly, his parents knew my parents from the mosque. Thirdly, his father knew my uncle from the police force. In fact, I knew most of his family members but they seem to forget me already. That’s ok and I prefer it that way. However, I just had that strange feeling when I salam his mom and she gave me that strange smile. Argh! I hate to be in that situation.

Hmm…how come I didn’t see Art Fazil and Faizal Ishak there? By the way those are his uncle and cousin respectively.

Anyway, I didn’t have the chance to see N and his wife, only his sister and her SIA pilot husband. His parents must be darn proud. Good for them. I wish both couples a happy and everlasting marriage.

Then, went to John Little’s sale at Expo. Bought a pillow and quilt. I just love the smell of new pillows. Another 12hrs of sleep tonight? Maybe…

Watched Mountain Patrol(borrowed from my colleague, P) on dvd before I retire to bed. A powerful movie, inspired by a documentary, Balance, about protecting the endangered Tibetan antelope from extinction. Based on a true story, vigilante rangers struggles to hunt for poachers in the land of Kekexili. It’s a very touching movie indeed. Everyone should watch it.

Well, I’m a sucker for these types of movies, especially based on true events, and foreign movies. Maybe someday I’ll bring darling to Picturehouse. ;)

Monday – 12 June 2006 – off day

Home alone…doing nothing. Watched Constant Gardener on dvd. Such a sad movie. I don’t think I can watch it the second time. Those African kids really touched my heart.

Weighed myself – 43 kg. Yipee! I’ve put on some weight. No wonder my jeans are a bit tight now. But my aim is 45 kg, I’ve always wanted to have that curvier hip…haha! But fasting month is coming in a few months time and I should be back to my usual 39-40 kg weight. Sigh! This is so tough. People are struggling to lose weight and I’m struggling to put on weight. That’s life man!

Alright, dats all folks...

I look like this.....

Really!!

Finally, today is my last day of work for this week. I want to sleep for 12 hrs tonight, I don't care!!! No one shall disturb me tonight coz my O2 will be on flight mode... :)

Countdown...............6 hrs to go

Updated @ 1800hrs
Yipee...1 hr to go and I'm off to school :D

Great news! Great news!!

Early next year, I’m going to be an aunt, my parents are going to be grandparents, my grandparents will become great-grandparents, all for the first time! Isn’t that wonderful? I cannot wait to see my dearest sista with that cute tummy. I’m sure she’s going to do great!

And I was teasing my mother that she’s going to be a ‘nenek’ means granny. She said that she prefers to be called ‘nyai’ coz she will feel younger. Lol. Anyway, that was what I called my late grandmother too.

At last, I’ll be able to see how my nephew/niece will look like. Congrats sista! :D

I hate X-Men 3...

For those who’ve not watched X-Men 3, don’t read on. But if you want to know the ending, go ahead. I'm not stopping you.

Ok, let me tell you a story. Darling has already watched it and so I needed someone to accompany me. I asked L and she agreed. So I was pretty excited just now, booking online and all that. Then came R who deliberately came to my table and told me how good the movie was. Fine! So I told her that I’ll be watching it later tonight. But she didn’t stop there. She said that Cyclops died and Wolverine killed Jean Grey. Then she gave me that cheeky smile and walked away. Then I heard her telling L that it’s not the same as watching the movie myself. OF COURSE IT’S NOT THE SAME, DAMN IT! SHE JUST TOLD ME THE FREAKIN’ ENDING!! So, I didn’t really enjoy the movie just now. Not because the movie was not good, it was excellent, but the fact that I already knew what was going to happen makes me really mad. In fact, I’m pissed! Really really pissed! Wouldn’t you??

You know, I’m very particular about these things. Everyone’s talking about this movie and I want to watch it for myself. Just like The Amazing Race. I didn’t want anyone to tell me who won till I watched it myself. No more kick lah, not exciting anymore! Do you understand how I feel? Do you?

So if you want me to rate this movie, I’ll give 5/5 but excitement – zero, zilch!

Now, someone PLEEAASE tell me the ending for Superman Returns and Pirates of the Carribean and all the other movies, so that I don’t have to watch it. That woman just killed my enthusiasm right there in the office, just 3 hrs before the movie. *SLAP SLAP SLAP...PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH*

Laugh and get whacked...

This is really really funny! No kidding! I watched this at the office a few weeks ago. Can you imagine that? I tried to hold my laughter till I cried coz I didn’t want to laugh loudly.

Enjoy this one!

10 10 1, 10 10 2….LOL!!

Now, back to work. Slacking…Wanna know why? Coz they printed the wrong hotline number on the flyers and my whole team are on our honeymoon right now. What the fish!!! There goes my sales…
