an update? is it a bot?

With nightly conversation partners taking off one by one, I find myself bereft of entertainment and noteworthy flights of imagination. My new blog is up, thanks to my infinite boredom and joblessness, but I have decided to reserve its contents for more interesting times. T'would be too sad to start off with a goodbye. So for now, I'll continue using this unpleasantly minimalistic space for self-comfort. The things I didn't write here gives me the shudders.

If my English sounds funny, it might be due to my listening to Korean love songs and pining my heart away. Except for the occasional rudimentary English phrases, all I can pick up is "Sa Rang~ Sa Rang~". It's quite funny, really, the shallowness of it all. A positive kiddie-pool. But it makes me feel good, so screw it. I'mma paddle in the kiddie pool all I want.

In case you didn't know, my obsession with anime has been replaced with K-Obsession. Concerned citizens (read: Yan Ming) should rejoice. Why? Why the hell should you rejoice? Because now I ogle at real people. Like, OMG finally. Real people? You scoff. They're plastic! Oh well, a girl's got to start somewhere, no? Besides, how do you plasticize legs? Those are real, I tell you. Of course not the guys' legs lah. The girls'. What about the guys? They look yummy. I wouldn't die of self-pity should I wake up next to one. Of course they look pretty. The androgynous look is IN. They aren't trying very hard to come across all manly (cavemen stubble and gladiator abs and all). I like that.

In fact, I'd go further and proclaim that this is as close as I can get to being perceived by the masses as 'Hot'. My general face structure and features fit the KOb. I'd make a damn cute Korean guy. Serious. I might be somewhat pretty for a Korean girl, but give me a haircut and I will transform into your next dotably adorafying male Korean celebrity. My nondescript androgynous face and suggestive grin will squeeze the hormones out of them glands. Of course, I'll need awesome hair so that fans can tell me apart.

(Do I look in the mirror and pretend to blow kisses at myself? I'm trying not to.)

Speaking of hair, I went and straightened mine. Itu rebonding, pernah dengar? Yeah. Now I hate my hair. It's too friggin well-behaved. I can't make faces at it every morning anymore. It dutifully falls down gracefully every time I slightly incline my head. I don't see crazy strands poking out all over when sunlight hits my head. I look like a counter girl when I wear a suit. Goddamit. I look so neat. Then again, I don't need to comb my hair at all. And I can tie my hair into a bun with a pencil, and watch it fall unchanged after I pull it out (cue shampoo commercial). Yet, I can't help missing the bed-hair I secretly thought was sexy. Ish. Here's to hoping guys dig this look. Cuz I don't.

New blog will be on Tumblr because it is photo-dump-friendly. I promised someone special regular photos of myself. And you all know I don't upload shameless self-camwhoring photos of myself on Facebook. Nope. They all go to Tumblr. There, we can make fun of the stupid all we want :D

like wow, an update.

I started writing something along the lines of a butterfly slicing my wrists, but then I realized there really is no point having a blog if I'm only comfortable posting about dreams and innuendos.

So, blog migration time. I'm sick of Blogger, so I'll be playing with Wordpress. Hopefully it will be a better experience. Uploading pictures to Blogger is a pain. Oh, and it will be locked, else what's the point? I plan on plenty of pictures of me, and plenty of gossip and ogling, of course. I've been repressing myself so much, I'm beginning to forget how to mock. But on the upside, internal sarcasmometer has been much fine-tuned. Being nice to non-friends is an art.

Oh, and tech-inclined people sekalian, help me out. Buying a laptop once I'm settled in the US. $1100 budget. So far, I have my eyes on the Asus N61JQ which is decently powerful. But I want something that has longer battery life. So far, I can't find any with similar specs and price. So if you can, please let me know. Else I'll just get a bigger battery.

And that paragraph above, I would have you know, was 4 times the length before I stopped and realized none of you would read a dissertation on how the N61JQ fits into my near-future lifestyle and why it trumps the U53JC.

I would like to say I miss the diary days, but no one read also sad lah. Susah betul.

tonight

I will be remembering you

knotted brows

Every once in a while, people say things to you that make you pause. And later make you feel like you're experiencing a mental sunrise. It's like when you first see an optical illusion - the darn thing is there but you were just looking at it wrong.

Beatrice told me, a long time ago, that I get bored of people very easily.

I do?

I'm still trying to figure it out.

overnight @ genting

Posting it so that I can just give you people a link whenever you ask me on MSN about the trip. Keep an eye on this, cuz I will be updating this post instead of posting something new. Not making an Event of Facebook. So exhibitionist.

Going

Me, KJ, Ron Nie, Louisa, Wei Jie, Beatrice, Shahril and Quraish.

Wei Jie said 8 is the magic number for the cable car ride, so no one will be left out. We can get Louisa, Wei Jie, Beatrice and Shahril in a car and hope for the best.

Lodging

Resort Hotel. ~RM140 per room. 2 rooms. 4 guys - 3.5 girls+0.5 guy. Adjoining rooms not guaranteed.

Louisa is in charge since she's doing the bookings and needs to make snap decisions.

Tickets

2 Indoor+Outdoor passes per person. About RM100 total. Indoor passes since we're staying over and will very likely be bored at night. Reminder : Casino only for those above 21 in formalwear.

Getting There

Gather at Akasia bus stop at 11am on Thursday, 20th. KTM to KL Sentral, then take the Go Genting bus to the cable car, and cable car upwards. Then, we grope our way through the fog.

Preps

Louisa is familiar with Genting and knows her way around.

KJ is a St. John Ambulance member who knows his stuff.

Bring food if you don't want to spend too much. Or steal KJ's buns.
