Missing my....

Sunday, April 4, 2010

.... m not talking about my BFF, Didz here although we keep on missing each other constantly! LOL!

I never told anyone this but few weeks back, I realized that I had lost my BFF - my male BFF. Except from my BFF (Didz), I told this to no one.

Known my male BFF since college; we hang out some of the times and had fun together. Things started to get downhill since the day he said 'something' (I posted it in 'When Being Just Friends No Longer Enough') and few weeks ago, he totally ignored me!

Unbelievable but that's the hard fact! 11 years of friendship flushed down the drain. I sent him messages and messages to know what had gone wrong but he never replied.

I'm not a blonde and I'm not that stupid so I got the hint and eventually back off. But I have to say, I'm kindda missing him ;(

Love at first sight??


"Love at first sight is probably bullshit, right? It takes time to love someone. So how long are you supposed to wait before you decide that it's never going to happen?"

- Right Before Your Eyes by Ellen Shanman; Page 137

That statement is exactly the same question I have in my mind....

The Latest

Clash of the Titans and How to Train Your Dragon are the two latest movies I had seen.

Following the movie Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, the Clash of the Titans - in my opinion - should be premiered first, then followed by the Percy Jackson. Both of them more or less the same. Both are the son of the Gods - Percy, the son of Poseidon and Perseus, the son of Zeus. Both are born to fight the evil and become heroes....

So what else is new? Hmmm... It's not a bad movie, kindda like it with the actions and all but there is something I couldn't point my finger at...

How to Train Your Dragon - I just came home from watching this movie with my BFF. We 'planned' to watch Alice in the Wonderland but we kindda missed the show hence we settled for the another animation movie.

I would recommended this movie to parents to bring their children to watch. And the PLUS point for me, Gerard Butler is in there!!! Well, his voice is! ~~~loveeeellyyy~ haha

Masquerade Masks

Thursday, April 1, 2010
The Annual Pharmacy Gathering is coming up soon - next week to be exact - and the theme for this year gathering would be the Masquerade Party!

Sounds fun? I had decided (last minute!) to join for this year gathering. I mean, it's the only time me and my colleagues get together and get crazy and forget all about the stresses and to forget why we dislike our bosses so much... LOL! I'm gonna get killed if any of my bosses read this!

Now, my problem is to get a mask; it's a masquerade party after all. My BFF and most of my colleagues had theirs already and I'm still looking...

I went to mask window surfing few nights ago but somehow, I have no idea what type of mask to buy. Half mask? or full mask? And gosh! there are so many types that I'm really really clueless... *help!*

Couldn't resist! LOL!

I posted a lyric video of 'Hey Soul Sister' by Train few weeks ago and somehow, I just couldn't resist to post this official video clip of that song...

Up till this moment, this song still my favourite one...

Undeserve to go...

Just finished watching the American Idol and sad to say, one of my favourite idols, Didi Benami is out!

As I mentioned in my previous post, her performance of "What Becomes of the Broken Heart" last night was bad but I didn't expect her to be eliminated tonight.

If you ask me who should go, it would definitly be Tim Urban but as Simon says, no matter what they said, he (Tim) would eventually got the much needed votes and still stay in the competition for another week. How long would he be 'lucky'?

If We Ever Meet Again - Timbaland feat Katy Perry

Forever - Andrew Garcia AI9


I have to say Andrew's performance last night was superb!

Too bad I can't say the same to my favourite idol, Didi Benami who sang 'What Becomes to the Broken Heart'. I actually like the song but gotta admit, she didn't 'deliver' it that well...

The Paradise of The Amazing Race

Tuesday, March 30, 2010
From France, teams went to the Seychelles island; one of the islands in the Indian Ocean and in my list, it would be one of the paradise islands I would like to go... one day!

Anyway, I have to say what a lucky teams these people are. I mean, Germany - France - Seychelles!! That's all my dream destinations! I think if I'm joining this race, I would definitly end up losing! Haha! Go figures!


Okay, back to the race! All the teams were in the same flight from France to Seychelles. And Brent and Caite managed to get the front seat in the flight and were one of the three teams to get the helicopter ride to the island of La Digue. While the second batch of the teams were off 1 hour later.

Time to catch up and the detectives, who were in the second helicopter ride managed to change their race position. Too bad for my favourite, the cowboy brothers. They made a mistake by leaving behind the map of their pit stop hence they have to swim back to their boat to retrieve it.


Oh well, that's the race for you but I'm not giving up yet! Why? Haha!

I 'cheat' and somehow I know they managed to get back up on the top :P

Earth Hour

Saturday, March 27, 2010
Tonight, starting 8.30pm till 9.30pm, for those of us who cares about the environment, me included, would be switching off everything I can, well, apart from my HP (I'm still oncall!).

Loving the nature and our world, I couldn't help but to participate in this Earth Hour ritual.

My contributions might be small, but it does make a difference, even a tiny weeny bit!

Together, we can make a difference to our future ;)

Another Fallen Idol

Friday, March 26, 2010
Yup, it came as no surprise the result of last night Idol. Paige Miles, who had been doing soooo poorly for the last couple of weeks is finally going home and the rest 10 contestants would be going for the Summer Tour!


Tim Urban in my opinion should also be going home but then, for this time, he's safe! But I can say this, if he doesn't perform well, he might be the next Idol going...

'The Week'

Wednesday, March 24, 2010

'The week' here is a reference to my oncall week. For 1 whole week, I am out from my usual workplace; for the whole 7 days, I am working for 7.5 hours (morning till afternoon) and my handphone is on 24 hours, 7 day straight in case there is any calls.

Do I like being on call? Haha... This is a trick question and I'm not gonna give the easy answer. Well, no one I know like to be the on call person. For me, I don't mind doing it (this would be only my second on call so far), it gives me the experiences I need in handling emergency situations. But the down side being on call is that it's tiring and disrupt my sleeping pattern.


My first day on call itself last Monday was drop dead tiring. From my hp step counter, the amount of steps I walk last Monday is equivalent to the amount of steps I took during my regular hiking. Yikes! That's tiring. By the time I came home, my feet were aching. My sprain was not heel completely and it just getting worse. I asked my brother to do foot massage for me... hehe! Bless him!


Not only that, I was only at home for an hour when I got my first call! Not a good start! I had to go back to the hospital. I was drop dead tired so my brother offered to drive for me... Gosh! You gotta love my brothers! And they love their only sister too! Haha!


I don't sleep 'nicely' as I normally did during the 'normal' times. I constantly checking my hp, just in case there is any calls I missed so you can say that I'm sleep 'irregularly'.


Tomorrow would be Thursday and for me, 4 more days to go before everything back to normal. But it would only be for a while. Next month roster is out and I have a duty on a public holiday AND end of April, I would be working the A and E duty. People go home and rest, I would go to work for 7 nights non-stop.


What a life!

Stuffs to catch up with

First up would be The Amazing Race 16.

Last Monday night, Jeff and Jordan were out of the race when they came last at the pit stop.


The detectives - Louie and Michael - came in first again; Carol and Brandy came in second; Steve and Allison came in third; Jet and Cord at fourth; Jordan and Daniel at fifth and the last team surviving in the race was Brent and Caite.

With only 6 teams remaining, I already decided which is my favourite team. I have to say it's Jet and Cord. For me, this team and the detectives might just be one of the winners. Both teams are calm and from what I can see, they are just minding their own business.


So, I'm sticking with Jet and Cord. No offence detectives! Hehe...
I might be wrong but hey, it's the amazing race afterall... anything could happen!

Next would be the American Idol...


Tonight, after the elimination of Lacey Brown, the remaining 11 contestants of the American Idol Season 9 took the stage with the Billboard Number 1 hits. Gosh! I didn't know that the Billboard chart is 116 years old! That freaking old!


Anyway, some contestants are good and I have to say I'm kindda disappointed with most of them. And I have to agree with the judges, it's always the choice of the songs.


Who in my prediction would be eliminated tomorrow?


Hmm... tough one! But in my honest opinion, it would be either Paige Miles, Tim Urban or Andrew Garcia. I might regret typing this but here goes the truth.. One of the favourite contestants, Didi Benami might just be one in the danger zone too. I truly hope she doesn't get eliminated and hope the votes for her is pouring but... I don't know!

One Afternoon....

Sunday, March 21, 2010
Yesterday afternoon, afterwork, while I was warming up my car before going home... this is what I saw. Kindda scary coz monkeys can be quiet aggressive so I'm just recording this from inside my car..

P.s. the background music is from my car stereo ;)

My Friday...

Friday, March 19, 2010
I was buzy the whole day today - both work and pleasure.

In the morning, I had to wake up early coz I got a duty in the hospital. And so does this Sunday and the whole week next week. We finished around 12.30pm and after quiet a while didn't eat any chicken (I couldn't bear to eat chicken since my entry on fast foods), today I was craving for the fatty chicken. Stopped by the Express Fastfood, bought my chicken and shake then went home.

By 1.45pm, me and my parents went to the banks! Gosh, this new financial regulation here in Brunei is basically killing the fun! So, I settled some of the credit cards stuffs and by 4pm, we fetched my brother from Meraggang. Alang-alang we went to Muara, my used-to-be hometown, we went to the Serasa beach and Muara beach.

Growing up 15 years of my life in that hometown, I kindda missed the beaches. I feel like a little kid again. I used to jog and walk along the beach and gosh, I missed that. This afternoon, me and my 2 brothers played with the water a bit and we made planned to do some minor swimming soon... But I won't tell when and which beach. Haha! I don't fancy people seeing me wet with salt water.

Me and High Heels

I couldn't believe I'm posting this and in a way embarrassing myself but hey, it's my blog, what the heck!

I'm a constant wearer of high heels. I got all types and gosh, hard to believe it, but I can walk on even the smallest high heels ever. At 5ft 4, honestly I don't need much heels to 'help' me out but I like to wear them nevertheless.


And all these time, I never ever sprain my ankles due to my high heels. I always sprain my ankles when I was wearing a trainer and do hikings. I lost counts how many time I sprained my ankles when I was climbing the rough hills. But yesterday, that record is broken. For the first time ever since I bought my Charles and Keith maroon flower strapy high heels (that was 4 years ago), I sprained my ankle, in the parking lot!


I was having a meeting after work and as I climbed down the car, I lost my footings and that's it. I was momentarily frozen due to the pain in my ankle and the bruises on my knee. But I had to endure all the pains and continued walking in my high heels to reach the meeting venue.


Anyone saw me? Thank God no one was around.. hehehe
!

Would that made me to stop wear any high heels? Heck no! I got 50+ pairs of shoes, 60% of them are high heels, what am I gonna do with them if I don't wear it no more? No sprain ankle, no pain can make me stop wearing heels! No pain, no gain ;)

An Idol Gone...

The verdict was in last night and from the bottom 3 contestants - Lacey, Paige and Tim - it was Lacey who was voted out. She sang 'The Story', the song that she performed 2 weeks back for the judges to judge whether to save her from the elimination or not.


The 'safe' word can only be used once in this whole AI competition and with this being the first performances of the top 12 contestants, well, let's just say that Lacey's chances were not that high.

Crystal Bowersox, the favourite Idol so far however need to watch her back coz Siobhan Magnus might just beat her in winning the Idol. Gosh, she has that nagging voice I must say but I'm still sticking with my first 3 favourite Idols - Crystal, Didi and Big Mike ;)

Congratulation to....

Wednesday, March 17, 2010
...my collegemate, Insyirah on her wedding last Sunday.

Me and my bff went all the way to Bukit Udal in Tutong to attend her wedding! On the way there, it was raining and I told my bff to pray very hard so that it doesn't rain at her place considering I was driving. I think she - my bff - did so coz it didn't rain at her area. It was hot and I'm sweating! My dress doesn't help much either and I was fanning myself like crazy. Luckily their souvernir is a fan coz I didn't bring any.

Again, congratulation to Insyirah and Mahdi on their wedding! So, one got married, 3 left to go - me, my bff and a male friend!

Next would be my bff's wedding... Hehehe!
