.thin drama.

This is also not breaking news. And it sure is not new.

I need to lose weight. I need to be thin!

So I have a few ideas running through my head.

Working my ass off
I can workout every single day. Run a few miles. Jog around every evening for an hour or so. Do sit ups everyday. Push ups. You name it. Climb a mountain for all its worth. The thing is,im not really an athlete. I have low stamina. I cant stand the heat. I get dizzy if I run nonstop. So I tend to stop alot. The only good thing is how it makes me feel after the workout. The feeling of lightness. The feeling of freshness. It's nice. I tend to build muscles if I work out. I dont really like it,but it makes me stronger so that's nice.

Dieting
Eat veggies. More lean meat. Eat less oily food. No fast food. More fruits. Less carbs. More greentea. More fluid. Dieting is like a routine. You take note of what you eat,and you stick to your plan. That's the problem. I dont do well with routine. Im not consistent. I'd like to try a diet that would actually work,but I just dont see it.

Starve?
Don't eat at all. Just drink all day long. Chew gum or something. Think of something else when you're hungry or go to sleep. This is considered anorexic. I guess. :P Some say I used to be one. I dont think I was. But I used to do this when I was 15. I still think I was not that thin. Really! I was not. Hmm. *thinking* This is sort of hard to pull off now that I'm constantly at home,where my parents are always around. So I cant really tell them I've eaten when it's obvious I havent. I'll think of something.

Throw up?
Being bulimic? Haha. Ok. I hate vomit. So this is out of the question.

Take drugs?
No way. Although I think this is the quickest. Be a cokehead and you'll look like Kate Moss. But I'll pass. I dont want to be an addict. I dont want to melt my brain and fry my brain.

Agh. I need to lose about 14 pounds.

FAST.

.newstands.

Not a breaking news,but..

I woke up early today. Around noon. And that's considered early,since I always wake up in the evening. I'm trying not to go to sleep,but Im sleepy! Im trying to change my biological clock. I think my being nocturnal(im not sure if that's correct grammar),is making me sick. Im not even feeling hungry nowadays,I just forcefeed myself so that I wont look like an anoroxic in front of my parents,or if Im bored. My face is bloated and my eyes feels so dry. *yawn*

*yawn* again.

I better go. My dry eyes are leaking from all the yawning.

Later.

.it's wednesday,woohoo.

I had my first keyboard lesson today. Well,technically yesterday since it's 4.20 am. It was fun. It's fun since I can play any song I want and learn at the same time. So,yeay! Next lesson I have to bring along a notebook for notes,my own keyboard and some music sheets. I can pick any song I want! :D

Im trying to figure out what songs that I want to play later in class. Hmm. *thinking happily*

Oh yeah,Im going to Kota Kinabalu with my dad on the 25th. Mama and Jarf said that the beach is awesome. Maybe I can go and go snorkelling or something. :D I hope there are tons of things to do. I can meet Eiz. Yeay.

Im thinking of making a photopage. But I'm just too lazy to take pictures,but I feel like making one. Oh well. I'll just post pictures when I feel like it.

I'm yawning but I'm not sleepy. :P

Goodnight!

music to my ear!

I'm listening to In Another Life and This Love by The Veronicas,Feel This by Bethany Joy Galeotti,and Lucky by Jason Mraz feat. Colbie Caillatt. :)

I've been searching for a decent video of The Charmed theme song. I still love this song. It's called How Soon Is Now by The Smiths. It was written by Morissey and Johnny Marr in 1984,and released by their band The Smiths. Other performances are by Love Spit Love and The T.A.T.U. I kind of forgot about it for ages,and then a few weeks ago when Anip was in JB,it was aired on Singapore's radio. I sang along since I can still remember some of the lyrics. Among other songs like Celebrity Skin by Hole. And a few songs from Radiohead. Now,why cant the Malaysian's radio air songs like that. :)

Here are the vids :

This is from The Smiths.



Note: This is from The Smiths' album Meat Is Murder.

This is From T.A.T.U.



Note : I like this version too. Although it is much more high-pitched.

I cant find a video of this song from Love Spit Love. Oh well. This will do. I found a live performance by The Smiths,but the person who posted the video disable the embedding button. If you find that this song is really nice,and want to see The Smiths perform it live,then go to youtube.com and search for it. :)

I love the line that goes..

"You shut your mouth,
How can you say,
I go about things the wrong way,
I am human and I need to be loved,
Just like everybody else does."

So people,there is no right way or wrong way when it comes to love. Just be thankful that you are loved and can love. We can't fight who we fall in love with. Love makes the world go 'round right? Well,in an unrealistic and optimistic way.

Bye!

feeling nostalgic!

I just finished watching 'The Princess Bride'. Here's a synopsis that I copied from IMDB since I'm way too lazy to write one myself.

"A kindly grandfather sits down with his grandson and reads him a bedtime story. The story is one that has been passed down through from father to son for generations. As the grandfather reads the story, the action comes alive. The story is a classic tale of love and adventure as the beautiful Buttercup is kidnapped and held against her will in order to marry the odious Prince Humperdinck, and Westley (her childhood beau, now returned as the Dread Pirate Roberts) attempts to save her. On the way he meets an accomplished swordsman and a huge, super strong giant, both of whom become his companions in his quest. They meet a few bad guys along the way to rescue Buttercup."

This is supposed to be an old movie. So it's a classic comedy. I find it funny at times,but mostly it's boring. The scene with the grandfather and the grandson at the end was sweet though,when he said "As you wish." Watch the movie to know what it means. :) But I don't recommend you to watch it more than once,i'm not sure if it's the lack of oxygen to my brain or if the movie was truly boring that I felt sleepy. I did munch on food for a while,it's supposed to make me less sleepy. I guess it didnt help. Oh well,it is five in the morning. I wonder if that's why I'm sleepy. :P

I feel nostalgic. I'm remembering all the movies I watched when I was younger. To list some :

1. Now and Then.
2. 3 Ninjas (All three movies)
3. Harriet The Spy.
4. The Little Women
5.
The Secret Garden.
6. The Little Princess.
7. Mathilda.
8.
Mary Poppins.
9. Casper.
10. Model Behavior.
11. Clueless.
12. She's All That.
13. Switching Goals.
14. It Takes Two.
15. The Adam's Family.
16. Home Alone (all of the movies)
17. Broke Down Palace.
18. Christmas Everyday.
19. Brink!
20. So weird (tv series)
21. I cant believe I forgot this! Haha. Flash forward!
22. Richie Rich.

That's some I guess. Haha. You might laugh,but these movies really interest me when I was younger. I was very close with my cousins at the time. I have 2 elder brothers and my cousins had a brother the same age as mine. So we'd trade places. Aizat comes to Kluang and stay for a while,and I took his place in KL. We'd watch those movies and act out scenes from the movies. Like the scene where Harriet and her classmates were playing in the park,and they keep running into each other. Each time they run into each other they'd throw the books they're holding high in the air. So we did that. Haha. We used to love riding on our bikes. Im not sure if it's from Now and Then,but we loved that movie. Even better when there's 4 of us. :D I used to love Roberta. She's the most tomboyish and I really think Christina Ricci is cute. Or maybe back then she was my fav because I'm a bit tomboyish.

Who can forget the three ninjas! Rocky,Colt and Tumtum. Haha. Casper is a classic! I love watching Casper cartoons. God. This is making me feel like a kid again. :P Not too much. Last week,The Little Princess is shown in HBO i think. I wanted to see it,but didnt get the chance. It's really nice. Harriet The Spy was also shown in TV i think. If you prefer reading,then The Little Princess,The Secret Garden and The Little Women are based on books. I have them,but cant remember where I put it. I shall look for them! Haha. I feel like some nostalgic reading. :) Christopher Pike's.. He intrigues me with his stories. Yes,they're fictions but I loved it nonetheless. There was one about Greek. It was really well plotted. Most of his books are. Then those Wiccan books. I was into those things too. I had two friends who was interested in them too. Haha. :D I was considered a freak. Oh well.

And who could forget Julie Andrews? You might know her from The Princess Diaries,but I love her in Mary Poppins. It's truly a classic that is worth watching. If you've seen The Nanny Diaries or Nanny McPhee. The part where they come flying with an umbrella in hand. Well,that's from Mary Poppins. Until now I can remember the word 'Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious'. Hahaha. I cant believe I can spell it. If anyone who's reading is puzzled and curious as to what it means,then dont bother. It doesnt really mean anything. As Disney puts it,it means 'a nonsense word meaning fantastic'. Oh well. I still love it though. And Scarlett Jo said it in The Nanny Diaries,when the boy told her the longest word. To me it was hilarious since I know it's not really a word. :P

Becca and Tucker from Flash Forward! You know the Burn Book from Mean Girls? There was already one from Flash Forward. I saw one episode once,for old time sake. It was the finale of the series. That's the only episode I can find online. Oh well. That's where I saw Ryan Gosling when he was younger,before he acted in Hercules. And then catapulted to fame in The Notebook. :P He's way older in that movie. Flash Forward is all about childhood friends and school life. It was the only thing that mattered back then. My childhood friends are my cousins,and we're still tight now. So yeay. :D

And not forgetting the TV Series such as Popular,Roswell,Dawson's Creek,Gilmore Girls etc. This post makes me see that,I watch too much TV when I was younger. HAHA.

Im tired. *yawn*

Later people.

P/S : I'm sure there are many typos,so forgive me.

the A B and Cs,please.

I realized that I don't know the meaning to most words. It's frustrating. I thought my English was fine. Well,two minutes ago I thought "Oh hey,I'm really lousy. My English is below fine!"

I was looking for a dictionary,and surprise,surprise.. I cant find one. COOMMEEE ONNN! Not even one? I was turning the place upside down -with the exception of pausing to read old books that I doodled in- and,yeap.. zilch.

I always make a point to polish my grammar,but forgetting about vocabularies. I'm turning a new leaf! Im going to make it a point to learn a new word everyday or something. Im going to get myself a dictionary later.

I'm reading a book from Tony Parsons,and i keep getting stuck. I keep underlining the words that I dont quiet get and coming back later with the meaning and reading the sentence all over again,and then absent-mindedly say "Owhhhhh... So that's what it means."

I never knew I could be so intrigue with words. Haha. Somehow,they fascinates me. :D

Later. Cant wait to get a dictionary. How lamer can I sound. Woohoo!

bad habits die hard.

This is so me to post something really late. Anyway,it's not like it was on purpose.
I tried logging into blogger the other day and the damn internet is so slow,it just pisses me off and I gave up trying to log in.
So here it is :

Happy Birthday Mama! WooHOO!

My Dad and I went to the florist to get her some roses and bought an ice cream cake which he knew I'd be the one finishing. We took her to Selasih here in JB and suprised her with the flowers. She admitted that she was a bit suspicious as to why I was so keen on leaving the house quickly and just after we ordered,I excused myself to the toilet. Which by the way,was so not me. I'd usually wake up late and haven't even showered when she reach home. She'll fuss over it and I'd eventually get ready and went to dinner with them. I do not go to toilets when we're out. I mean it's not like 'not ever'. It's just not me to go to the toilet just after we leave the house. Haha. It's kind of funny how I try to be subtle but in actuality im being really odd. Oh well,it's not like every year we get to celebrate her birthday,so I wanted to do something about it this year.

We went home and when she went to the toilet I quickly put the candle holder on the cake realizing it's taking too much time. I started to pick them out and lighted the candles with the stove -- I forgot no one in the house smoked -- and arrange the candles on the cake as fast as I can. As she chased Zoe around,I switched off the lights and sang the 'Happy Birthday' song. She was surprised I guess. When we were sitting together in front of the TV eating the cake she expressed her suspicions. Haha. What can I say,I am not the subtlest person. She said it was weird I didnt want any desserts at Selasih. Haha. And she remembered the orange juice jug on the counter instead of in the fridge. Well,the fridge has too many things inside,I had to take out some of the things in there so I can fit the cake into the freezer.

I want to write more but as always I'm running late for something. LATER.
