Captain Hook

Haaargh. I've been meaning to write, again and again, but as always my laziness won me over and stopped me from doing so. Not to mention the unexpected (and always, last minute) activities and outings. That be said, I've been out most of the time, meeting people here and there and everywhere.

I spent New Years at home (see how good I've been? haha), initially planning to write this (and more) but I was caught up watching the telly with my family and laughing our tush off. They showcased 3 Idiots on Ch 110 and we enjoyed it! We downloaded it right after and have watched it more than 5 times already! It is a really good movie, full of good values of love, life and friendship. I recommend that you take some time off work and watch it.

I met Ramblings a number of times and had a jolly time with her; sipping tea, having scones, announcing our (or my, to be exact) favourite Korean place, looking for earrings for her and her sister, attending her sister's reception and of course, gossip. Funny when we say gossip, we only normally (always) talk about ourselves and what's the latest news in our lives.

In case you didn't know Ramblings, she has been a friend since '05 and from the moment we met (oh wait, in our case, it's chat (chatted?)) in an instant, we had a connection, a bond like no other (ecehhh). She's been a great friend over the years, never failing to remember my birthday or call me once in a while all the way from Australia. Now that she's back and I'm here, we've been seeing each other more than we did in last 5 years. Believe it or not, throughout the whole period of our friendship, we've only really met and sat down together (not over a nice cuppa tea then), twice. Yes. Once ever 2 years, I suppose? Or whenever she's back really. I've enjoyed her company and I am a wee bit sad that she will be leaving for uni again in a month's time. Bugger. I am however, looking forward to our next tea session. Scones, perhaps, love? (British accent)

I also met the Tweeties gang sans twice, sans Jidin and Hazirah. They've been lovely, keeping me company in the Twitter world with their theatrics and what not. Always some new random story to talk about, it's refreshing :) (read: we're not all virtual friends who met out of the blue. We're connected by one or two people within the group. Six degrees of separation, they say)

I went out with my darlings, Bo and Fatin (look pictures below) and bought myself a couple of jade earrings that made me feel like a total girl. Speaking of which, I am determined to change my ways and improve myself, especially where my manners (as a lady) are concerned. I have been advised to be more, delicate, gentle, graceful and of course, more patient. I intend to do just that. Mum have also reminded me that I should act like one, an adult. A woman. I am also into experimenting with some new clothing, some things/tops/accessories that I don't normally where. It is time that I embrace my feminine side. I have been acquainted (that's an understatement) with my masculine side for far too long.

Not to say that I should lose my ways and change one-eighty altogether. All I'm saying is that, there is (definitely) room for improvement and I need to do just that. I will still be the opinionated (although I tend to keep my thoughts to myself nowadays), tough cookie. Maybe with more charm than before. Perhaps.

I also met up with my girls and finally learnt how to play Monopoly Deal, thanks to Aisha, the queen of games. I won on the second round, and the third as well! Take that Aisha, Ian, Ikha! Bangga jap. I had such a wonderful time with the lot, watching Malaysia playing against Indonesia, and win, meeting Olaf for the very first time and of course winning Monopoly Deal.

I went home for four weeks straight, every weekend, and spent most of my time in the car playing driver or playing around with the adorable little boy. Pardon me but I have this tendency to talk incessantly about my baby brother because well, I just love that boy so much. What can I say, he's my favourite boy :)

Oh my, I almost forgot. How can I forget! Syukri and Niksu came all the way to Uia to see me! Isn't that sweet, or what? I took them to Simpang and we had such a scrumptious dinner. We then drive to Taman Melati as they wanted to try out the Habib Burger that I claimed to be the best in town hehe and and and, they loved it! I am so glad that they enjoyed the dinner AND early supper haha! They really made me happy, by coming all the way from Shah Alam/PJ and then taking me to my favourite warung and ordering some of my favourite food. We exchanged stories and I managed to excite Syuk for his then upcoming visit to London (the lad had a fab time spending NYE in London and then in Amsterdam).

Bo also came to Uia and took me to Simpang, where we had a lovely dinner along with the boys, who joined us after and had a bawl teasing me (Bo went in on it as well) regarding my Twitter updates that for two days, I hardly tweeted at all. Well, yes I was a little bit emo and sad that they keep on bugging me about it but all is well. ALLL IZZ VELLL (watch the 3 Idiots and you will understand).

I still haven't met the girl who's friends with the squirrel, the introvert. I wonder, when will I ever? Soon, I hope. I'm looking forward to that.

Well, I have certainly done my part now, haven't I? There's a lot more stories to tell, of course, but I think this is best, for now. I will write again, of course, as this is the only media to help me brush up my writing skills and hopefully improve my vocabulary. Sadly the quality of my writing have deteriorated (not like it was top notch before, but you get me) and I am slightly well, sad about it. I will try my best to read more often and write too, in hopes of producing better sentences and what not. Maybe I just don't have that flair, like some people do. No matter.

It's time to go now. I've spent too long sitting down squeezing my brain to write this ahaha. Till then.


Love,
me.
