Reminder to myself

I always mistakenly used the word 'do' or 'does'. In one of my post from my main blog, I wrote a sentence like this:


Why should I befriend with someone who don't want to befriend me anymore?!

Teyha corrected me. I should replace the word 'don't' with 'doesn't'.

Aziz, remember this pattern:-

I do
You do
They do

He/She does
Ali does
My friend does
Someone does

After this, I hope that will aware whenever I make this silly mistake in the future.

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

Wow! Just finished watching this great movie. It is a 4-years-ago movie though. I didn't have the chance to watch it back then. Yesterday, when I was just exploring a movie-download site, I found the link for this movie. At that very moment, straight to my mind, that I must download the movie. It took almost half a day for the download to finish (yeah, internet connection in Malaysia is not that good yet). Whatever it is, it was worth it!

For those who haven't watch it yet, I really recommend you guys to do so. You will love the characters, the scenes, the costumes.. You will love all of it but you will hate Count Olaf though. Hehe! Anyway, click here to know more about the movie. Or, click here to know more about Lemony Snicket's works.

P/s - It is a very fantabulous movie if compared with Harry Potter (2009) and the Half Blood Prince. This latest movie of Harry Potter nearly bored me to death. Seriously!

Lost

I’m out on my own again. Face down in the porcelain. Feeling so high but looking so low. Party favors on the floor. Group of girls banging on the door. So many new fair-weather friends ooo…

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost.

Caught in the eye of a hurricane. Slowly waving goodbye like a pageant parade. So sick of this town pulling me down. My mother says I should come back home but. Can’t find the way cause the way is gone. So if I pray am I just sending words into outer space.

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost. Another night waiting for someone to take me home. Have you ever been so lost.

Is there a light. Is there a light. At the end of the road.

I’m pushing everyone away. ‘Cause I can’t feel this anymore. Can’t feel this anymore.

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost. Another night waiting for someone to take me home. Have you ever been so lost. Have you ever been so lost.

Please Queue Up!

I was at a grocery shop near my house today. My mother asked me to buy some frozen food for dinner. After I got everything needed, I went to the counter to pay for it.

As I was queued, suddenly, out of nowhere a not-so-old makcik cut the line. Without any feeling of guilty, she just placed all her groceries on the table. I was like, Excuse-moi, what gives?! Are u blind? Don't you see I am standing here, waiting for my turn to pay? Of course I didn't express it through words as it will make me the rude person instead or her (although I really wanted to! Geram betol!).

Although you are older than me, it doesn't give reason that you can simply cut the line. Not that I don't allow you to do so. Maybe you were in hurry, or your children were waiting in the car or you just really need to go to the toilet at that time (Hahaha!). But all you need to do is ask. Don't just cut the line. It will just make other people furious at you.

Moral of the story, lu fikir la sendiri makcik oii.

(Spoiler alert! The discussion below only applicable to anyone who ALREADY WATCHED Desperate Housewives Season 6 Episode 2)

This new season of Desperate Housewives is really exciting. The recent event was, someone strangled Julie Mayer and now, they are looking for the one that did it. I bet it was not the Bolen kid. Katherine is my suspect. Her behavior is this episode is kinda weird. Plus, her grudge with susan Mayer, that can be a motive right?

Mixed Feelings~

Tomorrow will be the pre-convo day for all IIUM students that will be attending the convocation ceremony next week. That includes me of course. I gonna pick my robe but the main thing is that, I will be able to meet all my classmates again. Yeay! It has been almost four months since we saw each other. Well, not all la. Some of them I had already met during Leyha's wedding reception. :p

I'm happy, but feel unease at the same time. I have the feeling that the most asked question for tomorrow will be, "Ko tgh buat aper skrg?". Adeh, malas tol nak menjawab. But nevermind, I gonna be honest with them. I will say that I still in the honeymoon period (read: still unemployed~). Hahaha! Whatever la. Maybe I'm a late bloomer. Lama2 nanti, dpt la kejer tuh. Yg penting, effort tuh mesti ada. Kasi lebey sket jer.

Hmm, right now, i have been listening to Taylor Swift's "Teardrops On My Guitar", pop version, over and over again. Don't know why, but it is a VERY NICE song! I love Taylor Swift by the way. I really like her (although I am not her number one fan since I just downloaded her songs, but never bought her cds). And most of her songs are worth listening to. Believe me! Personally, I suggest you guys listen to "Teardrops On My Guitar", "Love Story", "You Belong With Me", "You're Not Sorry" and "Forever and Always". Just search at www.4shared.com and I bet you'll find the mp3s.

Okeh, till my next post! :p

The You-Stole-My-Crocs Message

I found this message when I was visiting IIUM last two weeks, I think. A brother, name Zakuan Azizi (I don't know him, btw) left a note on a side of crocs as in the picture below. Click the picture to enhuge.

Hahaha! If I were him, I just take the Crocs and runaway already (if I 100% sure that are my Crocs la of course..). BTW, I wonder what will happen to the pencuri selipar? Habes la kena ceramah ngan si Zakuan nih. (^.^'')

P/s - A pair of Crocs was stolen at IIUM during the month of Ramadhan. Hmmm, so irony.

1 kg = ? pound

Lately, I love to watch "The Biggest Loser" at Hallmark Channel (702). Although it is the repeat one, I still enjoy watching it.

The weight loss in this series is measured in pound (lb). But in our country, we already familiarized ourselves with the SI system, which use kilogram (kg). Do you guys know how many pounds equal to one kg? Here:

1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds

That one I found from Google. It is the same when I calculate it again with my calculator. So, after this, whenever you watch "The Biggest Loser", u may calculate how many kg that the contestant lose during that particular week.

P/s - Really impressed with a contestant who lost 26 pounds in one week which equal to 11.8kg (26/2.205). Giler ar!

Exhausted... Not Exausted

Thanks Wee for the correction. I just noticed it. Hehe!

By the way, I screwed up my blog. I tried to use a new template and then, all the bloglist went missing. Nasib baik other widgets can be recovered. Hmm, malas giler nak copy and pasted balik link2...



P/s - After 2 months without ant posting, this is only the thing that I can write? Hahaha!
