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.

Bring cards / games / paper and a pen.

Wei Jie is bringing his camera.

Questions, changes, corrections, do let me know.

swinging summer

Summer Sem! When I can let my brains fertilize daisies growing out of my ears! Ooooh what a lovely two months I have ahead of me! Delightful decadence awaits! Summer summer sun sun sand surf spin spin spin sin sin sin!

Here is a list of stuff I plan to accom achie do for the next two months. I don't much care who tags along (actually, I do care, but let's face it, the only people who actually want to tag along are people I don't mind tagging along) so basically this is sorta of an invitation? Dunno. I'm just making sure I do all of them. For the bigger events, I'll make sure I bug you on the plans. Or maybe just make an Event on FB.

1. Shopping @ Sungei Wang & Low Yat

Because I want to get something from Sungei Wang (not clothes) and Kelvin wants to fix his jack (heh heh). First weekend. Anyone want to tag along, let me and Kelvin know. Anyone want me to buy you stuff from Low Yat, I need you to hand over cash first.

2. Another Round @ Finnegan's

Beatrice! Wei Jie! Louisa! I'm missing the mist of sin and semi-sobriety. Anytime. Anyone want to tag along, you'll have to be:

a) Legal

b) Able to stomach at least 3 shots

c) Friends with me, Beatrice, Wei Jie and Louisa

3. KTM BKT

Who can't figure out what it stands for, no need come. Weekend mornings. Pork-lovers cravers only.

4. Overnight @ Genting

Originally just a trip, it somehow developed into a plan to stay overnight. Please express interest ASAP because we plan to go soon after we settle things. It's going to be a squeeze at night. You know, the good-ole-fashioned poor student way. So far I have KJ, Kelvin, Louisa, Beatrice, Shahril, Wei Jie, Quraish and Ron Nie confirmed. Awaiting confirmation from Yu Chen. It's turning into an Auting, isn't it?

5. Beatrice's Beach Bash @ some awesome beach

Beatrice wants a beach trip. No lame-o Port Dickson for the Queen. She wants the real deal. I was thinking Pangkor, but we really don't have anything in mind yet. All I know is I have a sandcastle-making kit from when I was seven :D

6. Dinner @ Wherever

This is going to sound sad, but I sometimes find myself in need of a dinner partner. Text me by 1830 if you need a dinnermate and chances are you'll get one :)

7. Kickboxing @ TNT

I signed up for classes with Krystal, Jennita and Jessica. If you're interested, I suppose you can sign up, but Krystal's car is already full sorry!

8. Morning Jogs @ that park beside Cemara

To supplement kickboxing. Mornings because I secretly love the smell of dew at dawn.

9. Trading Games / Anime / TV Series/ Movies / Manga / Books

I have goodstuff, you have goodstuff. We must share goodstuff. You can find me near the magazine room in the library. Please make sure your hdd is free from herpes before humping mine.

That is all I have planned for now. The list will probably grow as summer progresses and I get sucked into other activities. I do hope you notice this update. Respond, people! I need confirmations!

Note to people who have crushes on people who are going to the same university: Tackle your crush NOW. Before he / she swims into the deeper pool called The United States of America, where you will pale in comparison to a lot of other guys / girls and will have to watch pathetically from the sidelines as she / he swoons after another. Also, I want more drama and gossip >:D

February (1)

Why haven't I been blogging for the past month?

There was no need.

I have Yan. I have Ron. I have Bugger.

Between the three, I barely have anything left to talk about!

In fact, I can just lock this up right now and save you a space on your RSS feed.

What say you?

*poof poof*

Good news everyone! I am now rather weary of anime. Or rather, my first few obsessions were of such good quality, the mediocre ones just can't sustain the enthusiasm. But really, it is a fascinating world. I got turned off by yaoi characters at first, but apparently, they're why shoujo mangas sell. So like, almost all shoujos have male 'best friends' or 'brothers' characters that have tenderer than usual feelings for each other. Heh. I'd explain, but I don't think you'd want to know.

I have a new favorite swear word!

BATCRAP!

It has such a lovely ring to it, no? Fall down, BatCrap! Forget phone, BatCrap! Forget towel, BatCrap! Find out self is shorter than Quraish, BatCrap! See Batman, BatCrap!

And another thing. Washing hair is such a pain.

Then: Shampoo - Wash - Conditioner - 1 minute - Wash - Towel - Comb - Done

Now: Shampoo - Wash - Conditioner - 30 mins - Wash - Turban - 30 mins - Unwrap - Comb - Dry - Serum - Brush - Done

But if I don't do it, my expensive haircut by the hottest Malaysian Chinese guy I have ever met will be for nothing! Yes, he is damn hot. Shut up. Yes he is. He is! His girlfriend's hot! I don't care. He's hot. Like a Chinese Jack Sparrow. With bandanna.

Thankfully, the elaborate ritual is only for the weekends.

A shoutout to random readers of this blog. Miss Lee Yan Ming has a new hobby! She wants to make bracelets. If you know of any store in KL selling bits and pieces of stuff she can use to craft her masterpieces, please let me know. I will make sure she makes one for you. If you are a guy, you'll get one too, plus a manual on how to score girls with it. I estimate it raises your chances by 34%

I don't understand how I can be so freaking jobless and yet have no life.
