Drama Updates

Veoh is now legalised in our country again. Hurray! Haha. For those who don't know, veoh is where you can download series, movies. It actually works like youtube. Only downloadable youtube. And its banned in most countries now, so the tv producers or anything can't claim the rights so wheee! Haha.

These are the dramas I'm watching lately. Most are still airing, so I haven't watched the full thing. The latest that I've watched and I feel is the best:

Cinderella's Sister.

I guess in correct grammar it should be Cinderella's Stepsister. But in korean, i don't think they use stepsister.. Do they? And the title is Cinderella Unni. Direct translation would be as the above. Anyway, instead of the usual Cinderella story, this story is about Cinderella's Stepsister( I know is obvious in the title). Somehow, I like the idea. The show is about.. Good ppl may not be good and vice versa. The summary in wiki:

Eun-Ju (Moon Geun-Young), who lost her father many years ago, finally moves gets a new family home when her mother remarries. Although things seem to have turn the better for the cynical Eun-Ju, she immediately faces problems when she meets her new step-sister Hyo-Seon (Seo Woo). Hyo-Seon with her bright character is the apple in her father's eyes and the clear favorite in the house. Furthermore, Eun-Ju's mother also seems to have fallen for the charismatic personality of Hyo-Seon.

Making matters worse for Eun-Ju, Hyo-Seon seems to like Eun-Ju's prince Ki-Hoon (Cheon Jeong-Myeong). Eun-Ju decides then and there to take matters in her own hands and exact revenge on her Cinderella like stepsister ...

Hmm. I'm not really satisfied with the summary. Its more like (I'll use the character's name instead of the korean names here so you won't get confused) Cinderella's mom is truly fantastic in lying. The cliche Cinderella story is that Evil Stepmom tortures poor Cinderella and asks her to do chores. In this story, evil stepmom cares more about Cinderella and ignores her own daughter. I guess there's no other way to make the stepsister shine if ppl are pitying Cinderella(who's not the main character here). Anyway, in comes Prince Charming who's not really a prince here. He's the bastard son of the president of some wine making company who gets beaten up when he was young. So Prince Charming and Stepsister has something in common. Cinderella is the usual doe-eyed, overly manja-ed daughter who loves everyone and the stepsister is the bitter one. But its quite understandable for the stepsister cause before her mother married the dad, her mom has been.. depending(is that the word?) on other guys and they end up running away from them. So stepsister been through a harsh life. I thought the drama was pretty realistic (Partly because I told Meepo that ALL dramas are unrealistic). Anyway. I was thinking it was realistic up until the moment the stepsister and prince were in a BUBBLE and was floating up to the MOON. I was like ??!@#!!@ . Hahaha. Turns out thats how happy the stepsister felt or something. Pretty irrelevant scene to me. Anyways, its not even aired yet in Malaysia And I've only seen till episode 4. AND I WANT TO SEE episode 5. Episode 5 is about 8 years later. They ended with a cliff hanger. It was 8 years later and Cinderella told stepsister that prince charming was dating her. End. GRRR.

Anyways.. I recommend this. Go watch, go watch!

Oh. And first impression for dramabeans.

CINDERELLA’S SISTER (KBS)

In my latest Oh My Lady recap, I mentioned the issue of a drama making an emotional connection with the viewer, and how Oh My Lady has been slow to build that rapport. In contrast, Cinderella’s Sister is very good about establishing that connection right away, and I felt myself drawn from the start.

Tonally, the first episode wasn’t angsty or tragic, and was surprisingly light. Not light in a fluffy way, but in a way that is humorous and heartfelt. (I suspect that the drama will grow heavier later, but am thankful it starts briskly.) I feel confident saying that of the three Wednesday premieres, this was the strongest first episode and while none of them sucked, it was a pretty obvious first-place. The pacing is assured, the scenery beautiful. The acting is outstanding, not just from the leads but everyone. (That would be Moon Geun-young, Seo Woo, Chun Jung-myung, Lee Mi-sook, and Kim Gab-soo. Taecyeon is not in this episode.)

Without giving away too many plot points, the gist of the story is this: Eun-jo (Moon Geun-young), somewhere in her mid-teens, is the daughter to a woman who keeps shacking up with horrible men — drinkers, beaters, lowlifes. Mom Kang-sook (Lee Mi-sook) goes from one man to another, and Eun-jo bears this stoically although she’s sick of living like this. Hyo-sun (Seo Woo) is a bright, lovable girl whose father owns a makgulli (rice wine) company. Meeting Kang-sook stirs her longing for a mother figure, and Hyo-sun does her best to push Kang-sook toward her father. Ki-hoon (Chun Jung-myung) is a good-natured employee of the makgulli company and a caring, mature older brother figure to Hyo-sun, who adores him. Though his interaction with Eun-jo is brief, he’s the only person who’s able to get through Eun-jo’s tough outer shell.

Moon Geun-young as Eun-jo is the main draw by far, and she does her cynical, hurt, defensive role well. She makes Eun-jo relatable and unique, and acts with convincing intensity. I love Chun Jung-myung so I’m thrilled merely to see him back onscreen again, but I’ll admit he doesn’t have much to do in this episode. However, his gentle, smiling presence in itself gives his character a warm aura. I am keen to see how their relationship unfolds, and by keen I mean VERY. I’m invested already.

That said, I think Seo Woo is almost as strong as Moon Geun-young. Yes, she most certainly overacts as the young schoolgirl. I suspect some viewers will find it annoying. As in Tamra the Island, I find Seo Woo’s girlish exaggerations cute rather than contrived, because they seem genuine to the actress herself, and not put-upon to force cutesiness. I am also being a little lenient because she’s playing a young teen, and will revise my opinion if she doesn’t grow out of it later. All that said, it’s the crying scene where she really stands out, and she makes Hyo-sun’s tears not only sympathetic but entirely believable. I was impressed.

Kim Gab-soo is excellent as the quiet, withdrawn father. You won’t find a trace of his creepy villain (Hon, Partner, Tazza) in this character, who is alternately gruff and vulnerable. Lee Mi-sook is the perfect stepmother to Cinderella, and she plays Kang-sook with layers of complexity. In fact, everyone plays their characters with layers, which is why I have a good feeling about this drama. It’s not simply reversing the Cinderella fairy tale, it’s subverting all the relationships and creating something new with them. I find that really compelling.

Next is Oh! My Lady.

Ok. I admit the main reason I watched this was to see Choi Si Won's acting. Haha. Apparently, he is the real life Gu Jun Pyo(from Boys before flowers), minus the attitude. His father owns one of the top 3 biggest supermarket in Korea, and he has the looks, 6 packs, and has all the good qualities and yada yada yada. haha. Mind that I'm actually talking bout Si Won here. Not the drama yet. For those who don't know, he's in Super Junior. Haha. Kyu should star in a dramaaa! I'd definitely watch, no matter how boring it is! haha. Anyways...

Review by dramabeans which I agree whole heartedly..

Cute show. Challenging, no. But amusing, generally yes. It pretty much delivered what I expected: some conventional setups and kdrama cliches, with a cute lead boy (Choi Siwon may have the body of a man but he’s firmly in boy-man territory for me) and a lovable leading lady. (I am SO glad to see Chae Rimback on television.)

Oh My Lady feels like a remix of several familiar stories and dramas, so it’s not wildly original. Its charm is in the characters and the relationships, and if things continue the way they’ve started, I think it’ll be a fun, light watch.

Oh! My Lady is the combined drama of Full House and ok.. I can't remember the titles now. Gah. But throw in a couple of kids. Leading lady(LL) has a kid which she dumps at ex husbands place in order to work for movie star aka Siwon the leading man(LM). LM has a kid who was dumped at his place. LM can't let the public know about the kid, big scandal and what nots. Haha. LM hires LL to take care of kid and keep the secret. Somehow, LL has no where to stay so she stays with LL's big house. Cliche. And I just found out from this drama that Si Won can actually sing. Lol. Cause he usually gets the song parts that are.. Not really challenging, I didn't see his ability? Anyways. Haha. This drama is ok. But.. Doesn't get me that hooked.

Next up is... Personal taste.

I wasn't interested in this drama in the first place. Have no idea why I downloaded it. I didn't really like Lee Min Ho(Gu Jun Pyo from boys over flowers). Now that I've watched it, I still don't think its good. Slow storyline. I was practically fast forwarding the whole video. haha.

Anyways, long summary from dramabeans.

PERSONAL TASTE (MBC)

I said that Cinderella’s Sister had the best first episode, in that it’s the best-produced and most cohesive package. But Personal Taste is my pick for the most fun and laughs — it’s cute, well-cast, and has a freshness to its humor. The jokes aren’t wildly original, but they’re presented well and feel new for a kdrama. (I mean, a gay-blowjob joke on Korean television? Ha!) Also, every deviation that the drama has made from the novel has been for the better (so far).

If you’ve been following the novel posts, you’ll get the gist. If you haven’t, here’s the deal: Kae-in (Sohn Ye-jin) is an upbeat and good-hearted furniture designer, if naive and rather dense. She is badly hurt by her boyfriend, whom she believes is going to propose to her when he is in fact marrying her friend the next day.

In a series of chance encounters, she gets off on the wrong foot with Jin-ho (Lee Min-ho), an architect who works at a rival firm to her ex. She thinks he’s a pervert at first, but then gets the impression that he’s gay. Jin-ho, who considers her a clueless blunderer, doesn’t bother correcting her. In the next episode (we aren’t there yet), Kae-in agrees to let Jin-ho move in, fed up with straight guys and liking the idea of having a gay roommate. Little does she know that Jin-ho has an ulterior motive: he badly needs to win a building project, and needs to study her house in order to do so, as she is the daughter to the famed architect who built it.

Spot-on casting, for sure. Sohn Ye-jin is perfect as Kae-in, showing the character’s positive personality even as she bumbles through various encounters. She also lets a naivete and vulnerability shine through, making it easy to root for her. Everyone, from the main cast to the supporting members, has that extra spark that draws you to them and their roles. I have a feeling the sidekicks are going to be a hoot. I even like Kim Ji-suk’s take on his character, who is nowhere near as awful as the book character; you can see he’s conflicted and remorseful. He’s just also a wuss.

Lee Min-ho may be young (he’s even younger than Im Seulong despite playing his hyung), but he wears Jin-ho’s airs perfectly. I’ll be the first to sing Lee’s praises, but I was worried that he wouldn’t be able to emerge from the Boys Before Flowers shadow — which is considerable — or live up to expectations, particularly since he’s taken over a year to choose his next project. I think he does quite nicely.

You might say that of course I like Personal Taste because I expected to like it — but I think liking the idea actually makes it harder to live up to the hype. Episode 1 is a little unstable at times and the pacing is uneven in the first half, but in the second half it starts to gel and really work. At the end of the hour, this is the drama whose second episode I wanted to see the most.

Authors note: I wanted to see Cinderella's Sister most. Followed by Oh! My Lady. Then this. =D

Birth of the Rich

The drama follows the story of a man, Choi Suk Bong, who believes that he is actually the son of a rich father and heir to a chaebol group. He meets Lee Shin Mi, who is actually a chaebol heir but acts nothing like one, with her scrimping and frugal ways. Although they get off to a rocky start, with her help, he struggles towards his goal of attaining wealth.

One thing REALLY irritating about this drama is it ALWAYS ends with cliffhangers. Making me lose my sleep. LOL. This drama is ok, but kinda kiddish plots. The drama revolves around which rich dude is actually his father. From DNA confirmed tests to the wrong DNA used and stuff, so his predicted dad is always changing. I feel obstacles were thrown in this show to continue the storyline. But it is entertaining and pretty funny. =D Ohh. One other thing. I actually like the spoilt brat in this show. The other girl. hahaha. She's funny. And pretty. Her and her cake obssesion. Not bad.

Chuno aka The Slave Hunter

Has finally ended. Haha. I didn't really like this show and didn't understand why it had such high ratings. Or maybe its cause I'm not interested in historical korean dramas? Hmm. But I liked Hong Gil Dong, Chang Jin, etc. It was pretty boring to me with irritating plots. Nice scenery was all it had. Seriously. The leading lady was irritating me. Half of the episodes revolved around her and her love triangle . At the beginning to the middle, it ALWAYS ended with the slave hunter NEARLY finding her and stuff. Gish. Won't recommend this. I didn't understand the director. Maybe theres some hidden depth in the show that I was too shallow to understand. Lol.

Scandal In Old Seoul

This drama is set in the 1930's when Korea was under the rule of Japan. Na Yeo Kyeong was the owner of a book store and she was also a freedom fighter. Seon Woo Wan was the playboy son of a rich family and he became involved in the independence movement through a bet with his co-workers to win Na Yeo Kyeong's heart. His father paid for the education of his worker's son, Lee Soo Hyeon, and was disappointed to find him working for the Security Branch of the Japanese government. Cha Song Joo was a famous gisaeng who ran a high class brothel.

Getting lazy to type, so, its ok. Not bad. Few boring parts, but moving. Quite entertaining. Better than chuno.

TM Thingi in Port Dickson

One good news: My laptop is finally back new and improved with windows 7 and 320 GB. xD It goes even smoother now. Wheee. I do have a lot of updates. But is lazy to type so abolished the idea the next day usually.

Anyways. The point of this post is the TM thingthat i went. Was actually lazy to blog but since i already told ppl i was gonna blog about it...

I'm not writing the exact full name because ppl can just google the name of the bengkel next year like what i did for the bengkel this year. Haha. And the world will know about this blog. Anyways..

The first day

Departed from granma’s place at 7? About 7. Slept the whole way. But it was quite fast la. Found the place at about 12. The locality was quite good. There was a beach, (Port Dickson is mainly famous for its beaches: What I remembered from the essays last time). The rooms were comfy, with air cond, and ok beds and tv. No astro of course. And the toilet was ok besides the sudden change of hot to cold water. First day was boring. Signed in, got into room. Saw no roomates yet(they went out already). Spent the day reading storybooks. xD When we signed in, the person just directed us to our room, no other info. After asking around, another girl said they’ll come knocking on our room doors at 6.30. Went down at 6.30, they said to gather at 8.30. -.- By about 7, my roomates came back and we did intro and all that stuff. They’re friendly. Haha. And they introduced me to our neighbours via connecting room doors which was very handy later on. Neighbours were friendly too. Its amazing how we can keep crapping. haha. One of my neighbours is from Penang too! Gasp! My first friend from Penang. Btw, the camp is for the whole Malaysia. Anyways.. we decided to go down a little earlier which was fortunate cause they were serving dinner already!! We thought dinner was at 8.30 but actually 8.30 we were suppose to go in the dewan. Aina was like, "Tu lah, mereka nak save kos sebab tu tak nak bagi tau". Went in the dewan.. Lady gave us briefing.. She was like congratulations for making it here.. Everyone here are very smart, bla bla bla, said we were to maintain our grades if we were to get the scholarship, but she thinks it wouldnt be a problem for ppl there. She also said, for overseas program, only 70 were picked out of 4000 over applicants.. So I sat there wondering.. How the hell did i get in, esp when the ppl there all had like straight A+'s. =/ Hahah. Common conversation there is to ask name, state, what other scholarships you applied. Haha. Seriously. When ppl talk, its all bout JPA, or MARA or smth. Then we were supposed to hand in our results slip and certs and stuff. You know, usually we just gather it together and stapler it or smth. But there are ppl who like.. BINDS their stuff, with plastic cover and everything siap dgn resume. I was like O.O And all had like a book thick pile. Hahah. Anyway, once we were done with the briefing, we went for supper. Oh, did i mention they provide SIX meals per day? After that, me and roomates watched monster house. Oh and.. Great thing about my roommate. Two of them love k pop too. =D So can talk about Super Junior and SS501 and stuff, latest updates, SNSD. And they know the dances of Gee, Oh! and Devil Run. I was like.. Surprised. They dance very well. Haha. Down to which part and everything. Recorded a video but can't post it up cause they weren't.. wearing their tudung and stuff. But still =D

Second day

Again they mentioned to kumpul at 8.30 neglecting to mention about breakfast. But we already knew their nefarious plans to starve us, so we went down early. xD Second day was full of ice breaking. We had a total of 227 ppl around. (mixed ppl who applied for MMU scholarship). And first, they asked us to group ourselves by our states. Penang had about 13 ppl... all from seberang side and stuff. Get this, we were supposed to introduce and memorize the names. Selangor had the most members. From there, we were supposed to find other group members like grouping us by our month of birth, name initials, etc etc. By the third group, i just about given up with all the names being a blur in my head. Haha. The process from then is just, nods head when being told name, and tells own name. Hahaha. Then we had various activities including chicken dance, indian dance, sing a long. Chicken fight dance. LOL. Then they separated the overseas and local, then arranged us in order of A+'s.. divided us into groups. Then we had discussions, which i only participate when asked. Haha. Oh. There was one we were supposed to pick someone and like.. talk with them then present about her. I partnered one of my room mate, and we talked about funny incidents and those kind of stuff, presented also about that. What the other ppl did was, talk about the qualifications of the other party. Like.. they received how many A's for pmr, did what in kk, is the president of what and what. I was like.. Ooopss.. "About me" is a wide range right? lol. And I know this is blatantly obvious, but i just HAVE to add that over there, you can practically see brain neurones zinging about in full speed. Their brains. Discussions, discussions, debate. Then we were given an EQ test and asked to think of incidents and how we felt. With that, our facilitator ended with giving us the 1000 piece puzzle that everyone will remember when thinking of our beloved bengkel. hahaha. They had alphabets at the back to give us clue which area it was from, but it was already scribbled and blancoed out by previous camp ppl. -.- Some pieces can see la. So we started sorting out the pieces and our place was kinda dim, so it was kinda testing our eyesights too. Haha. All of us getting sarcastic while doing the puzzle. Haha. Our puzzle wasn't easy because all you could see was RED. And YELLOW. Grr. And everyone HATED F4. HAha. It was the taiwan F4. Not the Korean ones.

At the beginning.. Still laughable...

After one hour... And getting no where.. Grr. Hahaha.

I think everyone had one or two hours of sleep only. And yet the puzzle remains.. incomplete.

Our leader didnt sleep at all. Two nights in the row. At like 6, me and my room mate went up, didn't even brush our teeth or anything. Just plonked down on the bed and it felt like only 10 mins i was being roused again.

Third day

Surprisingly, I didn't feel sleepy the next day. We had more discussions. And we went down to the beach. Haha. Without our facilitators permission. He saw us all hot and sleepy and allowed joyce to lead us around the building. She lead us to the beach. xD Port Dickson beach is not very different from Penangs. haha. Then they asked us to make something in 30 minutes. Something that telekom would buy and sell. We only could use what we found. We got cardboards, cans and stuff. And we separated into groups cause we needed to make it formal and stuff, the opening ceremony, greet him and everything. We had kompang sounding dustbin players, which was me and 3 others. Hahaha. And the the other girls greet and iringi, then the guys designed the project. When the dude came, he was actually pak ali, another groups facilitator, we greeted, and we had 2 ppl presenting our item, which was a hybrid teleporter, which was supposed to replace our public phones cause by this, you can video conference and teleport objects la supposedly. Pak Ali started by saying, I didn't understand a word you're saying, Why are you questioning me, This is kindergarten work(which it wasn't!!!), and all the hurtful stuff la. Then he picked up our project, and tossed it in the pond

The pond behind us. That was where our group was most of the time. Everyone was of course shocked, i myself was wondering.. What is his problem??? Oh btw, since the first day, all the facilitators were like insulting us and stuff like kamu dari terrenganu? oh, sebab itulah muka macam penyu. and stuff. They were testing our reactions and stuff. So when he threw our project(we didn't even take a pic of it), it all suddenly came to me that it was a test, and also confirmed when Pak Ali turned around, he was smiling a bit, but apparently i was the only one who noticed that. The others was angry. And our facilitator, Pak Man, added fuel to the fire and stuff. We had a discussion on how we felt. When we went back to our rooms, everyone found out as we discussed with each others bout the various ways their project got ruined. Some got stepped on, kicked, and stuff. My roommate had their project stepped on BEFORE they presented and then was blamed for being unprepared. As we assembled for the night, Pak Ali walked in, and said, nampak muka-muka semua yang benci aku sekarang. hahaha. Then he said he think we already know it was all planned and stuff. Then we continued our puzzle... I chaoed at about 3.. The guys continued doing it.. And i was asleep when...

Finally, it was done. You see the red? All very nerve racking. haha.

The Last Day

We just saw a bunch of videos, like the video we seen of the ppl who had no hands or legs but manage life, and appreciate our parents, and who's packing your parachute thing. sang more songs, danced. Then we dismissed. After taking pictures, balik.

our waterfall...

Group A. This is our full group of 23 ppl. =D

p/s pictures were all stolen from ppl. My dad took my camera.

And i think my chances of actually getting the scholarship is close to 1%.. But I have to say i don't regret going. Make new friends from all over Malaysia. There were ppl from Sabah as well. It was an experience. Truly. And there was a point where we talked about optimism and stuff. And its really ironic. Cause when i reached penang, i saw this show, Becoming a billionaire, its a korean show, the hero was contradicting one of the characters who was talking about optimism as well.. He said, "Therefore, you need to ignore everything that is negative. Isn't that right? So, that would mean that you can't get upset, when you're stuck in a traffic jam. If you're going to be stuck in traffic, learn to enjoy that time. Listen to radio or music, or talk to your lover on the phone. But this is the kind of thought I have, aah, it sucks to be in a traffic jam, there are big problems with the roads of Korea. Not only do I get annoyed, but I feel the need to do something in order to make things better. This means that the power to change the road system of Korea is derived from negativity, not positivity. Negativity isn't the power that eats away the power of affirmative, I believe it possess the power to surpass the ability of affirmative in your life.". The facilitators lie so many times, i found myself doubting everything they say towards the end of the bengkel. haha. In the start, they asked us to forget that we came for the scholarship, but they keep on talking bout scholarships. so. -.-

GAH.

I ish ze going crazy thinking Su Ju is already in Malaysia. Noooo! Gah! I wanna goooooooooooooo. Regretting not buying the ticket now.
Main reason why I didn't buy the ticket when it first came out was because:
* All collection of tickets will require validation of NRIC/Passport, Credit Card and Booking Number.

* Ticket collection is at venue only on the event day, 2 hours before the show time.

* No third party collection allowed. The purchaser (credit card holder) has to be present upon ticket collection.

Yeah. I can totally imagining my dad beside me in the concert complaining. LOL. That was the main reason in the first place. I couldn't think of anyone else who'd already have a credit card. And also no one to go with me. WHich means even if i do find a credit card holder. I still need to get there alone. So, didn't get it. However.. Regretting it big time now. Gah. Who knows the next time they're coming again? Maybe I'll have college exams or something at that time. SIGH.

If I studied in KL in Jan, I'd probably would be attending the concert. Since I am already in Kl. However, if i do go KL to study, I don't think I would have the time to be fan crazy bout them. Gah. Nvm.

*Repeats to self slowly about why I didn't go in the first place.*

Gah.

Moving on...
I actually had a job today. Yes. KIL has actually gotten a job. Its a one day thing though. Hahaa. And just my luck, I saw 5 of our beloved school teachers. 3 of them never taught me though. Just saw their faces before. One was our moral teacher in F2 or F3.. The one who taught maths instead of moral in our moral period. Haha. I forgot her name.. Haha. She recognized me! =D I forgot the other ones name... Imagine that. haha. Oh. I was working in Tesco extra. Giving out some slimming voucher thingi and they had to write down their names. Not bad. I finished two storybooks. Should have brought laptop. =D Saw a lot of different kinds of ppl today. I like kids. They're cute. =D I observed kids the whole day today. Most looked like their mothers. Haha. Ke random nessan.


Su JUUUUUU..

Minus HanKyung, Kang In and Ki Bum.

Killah is now going fan crazy over...

Kyu Hyun from Super Junior. Just LOVE his voice. Haha. This is the product of months and months of leisure and free time. Haha. Long time no star crazy. Not a particular star anyway. Not to mention that I'm a little totally biased when it comes to whatever entertainment show he is on. Hahaha. But he wins most of the time anyway. =D Singing is definitely his forte. When you're free just go listen to his song.. Hang on. I'll post up the link.



Super Junior is coming to Malaysia on Saturday. Dad's birthday is on Friday. I can't believe I almost forgot my dads birthday. Gosh. I'm really losing track of dates without school. Where was I? Oh ya. Su Ju coming. I would have gone.. If someone would go with me. Haha. Nvm. Consoled myself with the thought that even if I went, they probably look like a tiny little dot to me. Haha. And there'll be a lot of screaming and.. we'll have to watch them on the concert screen anyway. haha. I can just record PY screaming and watch it on my laptop. *nod nod* LOL. Ok Py? Hahaha.

Late post again cause of the absence of my dearly beloved laptop. Haha. I'm not as crazy as Tze Ni to give a name to my laptop. Yet. Haha. Lappie is just back but is still showing the same symptoms. -.- Nvm. For now, it'll have to do. Anyway, Spm results.. I guess I saw it coming. My results... aren't that bad. But it wasn't fabulous either. Hmm. Bio oh bio. Haha. But i think if i could turn back time before spm, i don't think i would study any harder. Lol. When i went on stage, (after hearing Mr Ilangko pronounced my name wrongly again*just had to add that*) the Pengetua told me, I am SO proud of you(in what i would say a pretty sincere tone).. which got me thinking... I think she thought I got straight A's.. Lol. Nvm. Its my favourite number anyway. 9.. It does fit. Hahaha. Girl who is born on the 9/9-92 has 9 A's. Make sense. Yes? The thing that amazes me is my A+ for Add maths. I didn't even realise it till Por Cha Boh told me. Surprised would be an understatement. Haha. Those ppl who usually score in Add Maths would say its nothing but this is coming from a girl who nearly failed her add maths man. Hahaha. Post-Spm results is not very different from Pre-Spm results. Haha. Its time like these I appreciate my parents. Hahha. Cause they're the ones running around to find out bout colleges and stuff. Or most prob i'd be stuck back in Sggs for form 6. Haha. Well, at least i have Ee Ling. =D I still don't know what to do. Btw,

Dreaded questions:
-Before SPM: How's your preparations for SPM coming?
-After SPM: How was SPM?
-Before results: What do you think your results are going to be?
-After results: So what do you plan to do?

Gah. These questions were constantly asked by every adult i meet. Mostly la. Haha. I honestly don't know what i want to do. Gah. Nvm. End of SPM rant.


Oh. And this conversation with my uncle that day. EUNICE! Read this!
Uncle: I know what you've been up to...
Me: Huh? What have I been up to?
Uncle: You have a friend named Janice right?
Me: Yes....
Uncle: Her mother is a teacher right?
Me: I don't know.. I'm not that close with her..
Uncle: Are you sure? Her mother said you two are close?
Me: No...
Uncle: You went to Gurney drive with her right after the results? Her mom said you all are so heavy made her car....
Me: *cuts in* OHHH! You mean EUNICE.
Uncle: Oh yea, I remember it was something, didn't hear clearly
Me: OH yes yes. Eunice's mom is a teacher.
Uncle: Yes, her mom called me..
-Convo goes on-

Hahah Eunice! I finally get the message you sent me days ago. Creepy how the teachers connect to each other right? Hahah..


Had fun that day when my dad, mom and I were sitting on the sofa. My dad and mom was waiting for Lee Chong Wei's game in the England open. I was watching Bandslam on the other tv/playing games on laptop. Haha. Totally hilarious how my mom starts criticizing Chong Wei when the game first started cause he was losing 5-0. She was like, his clothes so ugly, one side got sleeve, the other one don't have. (Me: Its sponsored la!! I don't think he can pick), then she says can choose other sponsors and then goes on talking bout his hair, dye till like that. Until he started picking up and was winning the Japan dude, then she started praising him) I was like.. Mom, you're so bad. Ppl losing then you critisize, ppl start winning then only you start cheering for him. Hahah. Seriously. He won gold in the end. And the last ball, was actually out, but the linesman(i think thats what he's called) said it was in. So Chong Wei in, then my parents started saying, its not a clear win, they could have gotten in a rubber match and maybe he wouldn't have won, etc, etc. And all i could say to that was -.-". Haiz. hahahah. Chong Wei was good and fast on his feet man. I was like =o when he saved the shuttle from a direct smash(the ones with him diving on the floor then springing up again).

The sleepover was fun! =D Lets do it again!! haha.. Orphan was not that scary cause June was telling what was going to happen next. Haha. Will post pics here after i uploaded it in FB.

Getting lazy now..

It all started one fine day after CNY...

Where i bugged my brother to teach me how to drive first. Few reasons why i didn't want to wait for the official driving instructor,
-with my brother, i could yell and panic if something happens. Haha.
-rather be taught basics by someone familiar.
-at that point i didn't even listen to the course yet. It would take forever

Nevertheless, the highlight of the moment would be me yelling at my brother to NOT use HIS phone while I'm driving. Haha. He get distracted and the lives of innocent victims could be threatened. Mati enjin a few times cause the clutch of my dads car was damn deep(and the fact that i didn't know we couldn't press the accelerator and the clutch at once). Haha. It is known throughout my family that if I can drive my dads car, i can drive any car. LOL.

Anyway, survived that encounter where I happily announced we're still alive upon arriving back home. Hahaha. (For all you know, bro and I might be lying in a ditch somewhere cause of my driving skills. Or the lack thereof)

So anyway... I had my first official drive yesterday. The driving instructor picked me up at my house.. Drove a bit. Explained the stuff. And surprised me when he suddenly got out of the car mid lecture and asked me to sit in the drivers seat. Hahaha. Enjine died once at the traffic light. It was a slowww and hot drive. Perspiring the whole way. Every vehicle, like old ancient cars are overtaking me. Hahah.

Today was the second. I tried to drive faster. Then he asked me not to accelerate and keep my speed less than 40. Then I was driving at 40 then he asked me to slow down to 20. -.- Eventually, even the most patient driver behind also overtakes. Haha. All cars AND busses.

My driving instructor lau gina wan. He teach 40 minutes or less instead of one hour every time. >.<>poor ppl Haiti ppl. I see Justin Bieber, Hmm. Is that Josh Groban? Think so. Jennifer Hudson, that lady looks familiar.. Miley Cyrus, Enrique Iglasias, Usher, I think thats the dude from Black Eye Peas, Celine Dion!!!, the girl that played the electric guitar in MJ's last concert, and i think thats the girl from black eye peas. Ooooh! I finally remembered. That girl is the main singer for pussycat dolls. Thats why she looked familiar. I think i see the jonas brothers. Yup. They're there. This is more modernized with electric guitar and the voice alteration thingi(i don't know what its called). Wait, is that Luther from Smallville??? Hmm. Just a glance. While the new song is nice with rappin' and all, I still prefer the old one..


You know the best part? They still kept MJ's part from the original song and mixed it wit Janet's voice. =D But mainly you can hear MJ.


I should clarify cause Di*ahem* complained she doesn't know which singer i liked.
Ppl who i think are great singers: Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey's range of notes, MJ in that order. Josh Groban. Oh. Charice too. =D Kyu Hyun.


Oooh. Next song is Kelly Clarkson's Already Gone. Haha. I still don't get that part of flying violins being played themselves and the connection to the song...


OMG. Next is this is it. I didn't know they had an MV for it. Aw. Its all memories of him. Gonna go download.

Anyway,those who wanna see the we are the world MV,

11th March 2010

A day I would think would have impact on all most F5's(disregarding those already in college and has no use of that sheet of paper). This date is mostly on ppl's facebook statuses. I don't know why I'm typing this like an essay. Hahaha. Anyway, its doomsday for me, where I have to actually wake up to reality and actually decide what I'm gonna do for the rest of my life. Gagaga. Did time have to pass so fast. The more I think about it, the worse I'm guessing my results are gonna be. Especially when I only started studying Form 5 Chem in the brief period between paper 2 and 1. I never touched form 5 before that. But I'd suppose no one would believe me if i said that. I can't believe myself. And Accounts, omg. And ... Nvm. So for now, it is temporarily pushed to some dark recessive corner of my mind. No matter what my results are gonna be, I think I'm just gonna enjoy my month. Haha. Ok. Enough of my pitiful whining about my undiciplined self. The reason for my lack of posts this month is because my poor laptop is in the hospital. It broke down. Was repaired. But then the person didn't repair nicely or smth so it was sent back. Now my dads gone to Sarawak I get to hog his computer. Muahaha. Still prefer my own laptop though. =( Its weird to say this, but nostalgia hasn't hit me yet. I don't miss school all that much. I don't know why. I thought I would. Hmm. Its probably cause I still see most of my close friends and I'm still thinking this period of time as my long long holiday break. Apart for laughing at my cousins when they had to study for their exams. =D I maybe would be going to F6. Dunno. I have the uniform already anyway. =D Redbox day was fun ppl. =D I wanted to do an elaborate long essay about that day, but is simply too lazy now. =D Pics could be found in Fb. Currently liking everything korean. =D Learning their language a little.


K. Long time I didn't post up JOKES. =D Read if you want.

Little Janice was not the best student in Sunday school. Usually she slept through class. One day the teacher called on her while she was napping, "Tell me Janice, who created the universe?" When Janice didn't stir, little Johnny, a boy seated in the chair behind her, took a pin and jabbed her in the rear.

"God Almighty!" shouted Janice and the teacher said, "Very good" and Janice fell back asleep.

A while later the teacher asked Janice, "Who is our Lord and Saviour." But, Janice didn't even stir from her slumber. Once again, Johnny came to the rescue and stuck her again.

"Jesus Christ!" shouted Janice and the teacher said, "Very good," and Janice fell back asleep.

Then the teacher asked Janice a third question. "What did Eve say to Adam after she had her twenty-third child?" and again, Johnny jabbed her with the pin.

This time Janice jumped up and shouted, "If you stick me with that thing one more time, I'll break it in half and stick it up your ass!"

---------------------------------

It got crowded in heaven so, for one day and one day only, it was decided to only accept people who had really bad day on the day they died.

St. Peter was standing at the pearly gates and said to the first man, "Tell me about the day you died." The man said, "Oh, it was awful. I was sure my wife was having an affair, so I came home early to catch her with him. I searched all over the apartment but couldn't find him anywhere. So I went out onto the balcony, we live on the 25th floor, and found this man hanging over the edge by his fingertips. I went inside, got a hammer, and started hitting his hands. He fell, but landed in some bushes. So, I got the refrigerator and pushed it over the balcony and it crushed him. The strain of the act gave me a heart attack, of which I died from."

St. Peter couldn't deny that this was a pretty bad day, and since it was a crime of passion, he let the man in. He then asked the next man in line about the day he died. "Well, sir, it was awful," said the second man. "I was doing aerobics on the balcony of my 26th floor apartment when I twisted my ankle and slipped over the edge. I managed to grab the balcony ofthe apartment below, but some maniac came out and started pounding on my fingers with a hammer. Luckily I landed in some bushes. But, then the guy dropped a refrigerator on me!"

St. Peter chuckled, let him into heaven and decided he could really start to enjoy this job. "Tell me about the day you died?” he said to the third man in line. "OK, picture this; I'm naked, hiding inside a refrigerator....
