6 Days Later,

I'm home. 

What a journey. Two nights at Johor. Two nights at Melaka. And one night at Shah Alam.
Whoa.

Our main purpose was to go to Johol, Negeri Sembilan, though. And we went there last Saturday. 

When we arrived home, safely last night, at 11.47p.m. ., it was raining heavily. And it still is. It was sunny at Kuala Lumpur, but now, it's dark, cold, wet, at Besut, HERE. Rain reminds me to holiday, which is, a GOOD thing ~

Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice #2

I mentioned about FINGER KNITTING in previous entry, right? And I love doing it. Except that sometime it 'strangles' and 'chokes' my fingers. It's alright, as long as the result is perfect (to me). So, I can simply compromise with 'slow' blood circulation. 

It's so easy. It's like a therapy, at times. I put on my earpods, listen to Bridgit Mendler's songs through my iPod and keep my focus on my fingers. That's it. By the way, I might just curse under my breath during the process, because yeah, how are we going to learn if we do not make mistake?

It started with nothingness, actually. There was nothing interesting to do, much. Until I found this :

When I was 15, I taught the participants of English Workshop to make a FRIENDSHIP BRACELET using those. Those are leftovers, like, A LOT. 

So I googled on HOW TO KNIT. And I don't have two knit needles. So I attempted two PENS as needles, but of course, I failed. Then I found out that we can just knit using our HANDS or fingers, to be exact. Kids can simply do this (based on what I read on Google). Why couldn't we? So, why not, right? It's official, finger knitting is in the LIST of things to do after SPM.




I am left-handed. That makes my left hand as my dominant hand. So, I'm knitting on my right hand!  Let's see the outcomes of these finger knitting!




It's my waist, by the way. I'm using this as a BELT on my plain blouse!

I'm going to create a CURTAIN. Can't wait. Can't wait. Remember girls, we're sugar, spice and everything nice. 




Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice

This entry is firmly, strictly dedicated to GIRLS ONLY.

They told me something about me that I could never put my finger on.
We're all girls, so, um, I might have told them (or not) something about them.
Girls are being girls. We love. We gossip. What I'd love to skip is, we just can't avoid DRAMA. Cliche'.
Somehow, now that school's over, I'd love to recall those moments.
They judged me. They labelled me. 
I was known as a solitary girl. I used to walk all by myself (because I wanted to) most of the time to places around school. It was awkward, yeah. But turned out, I simply enjoyed the serene, lonely, quiet walking.  
They labelled me (I guess) as a I-don't-care girl. I take that as a compliment. Seriously. Because that means I'm not like those girls who love to poke their noses into gossips or other people affairs. They said, I'm the person who did not care about others business. However, what that makes me? Yeah, I don't like butting into something that does not involve myself, but that does not make me a self-centered person. 
I did not smile much, unless you gave me a real, genuine, good reason to. And I'm not sorry for that. Sometime, I just forget to smile. I need you to remind me.  *wink



The truth is, I don't mind. You may judge me. I forgive you because you don't know me. But, I would never ever let someone DEFINE me. I DEFINE MYSELFAnd you should too. 

I'm just a GIRL. A girl who wants to be anything but ordinary. Or you may call it as extraordinary. No matter how expressionless, 'smile less', boring, fiery-tempered I am, I'm just a girl who is made of sugar, spice and everything nice. Just like you!

I don't know how to cook, but, I enjoy finger knitting and love to learn knitting.
Riding my little brother's fixie exhilarated me, but, I still love dancing to graceful moves.
The like-a-boy confidence that I get when putting on my sneakers excited me, but I still find skirts and dresses are exquisite (I heart fashion).

Girls, reveal your masquerade, dump your facade, to the people who love you and worth it.


Again, I'm just a girl. Every girl is ..... a GIRL, despite how that girl acts and presents herself. We can be fragile, vulnerable, beautiful and strong at the same time. If you ask me who runs the world? You're right. It's us, GIRLS.





So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Twihard

I still remember how stunning (really?) Bella looked and how devastatingly beautiful, gorgeous, etc. (don't let me go any further) Edward looked on the cover of TWILIGHT poster that I saw on Klik's magazine when I was like, 13. 

I read the summarized synopsis and I was charmed (perhaps) by the fact that it was a story about a girl who falls for a vampire. Yeah. Laugh all you want. I was young and thirteen. Of course it was fascinating, to me. It was exceptionally different. It was unpredictable. Something I never expected. Something that never crossed my mind. 

Hence, I bought the book, Twilight. And I liked it. Then I asked my Mom to purchase NEW MOON (the sequel, obviously), when she went to Penang. To my delirious surprise, I got an ECLIPSE for my fifteenth birthday present from a good friend of mine. And I bought BREAKING DAWN on my own at popular bookstore. Yeah. I was a Twihard, indeed. Despite the fact that I did not really understand English, I still bury my nose in those novels. I fell for Edward, hard. Real hard. To the point that I wrote about him in my diary. To the point that I wanted a vampire as my boyfriend, which was incredulously impossible! I know right. It was ridiculous. It was an implausible, immature behavior of mine. Trust me, I was not the only one. There are, in fact, numerous Twihards out there. If you're not a part of us, you would NEVER understand. Enough said. 

My favourite book would be BREAKING DAWN. Because there are so many event in it! Bella and Edward is getting married. They had a half-human, half-vamp daughter. Jacob, who was once loved Bella, suddenly 'imprinted' on Bella's daughter, which made Bella as ...., um, his ..... mother-in-law to be? Yeah, Jacob finally gets over Bella! 

My least favourite book would be NEW MOON because Edward left Bella, for a vague (to me) reason, that I still could not be sure. Bella was depressed. She cried herself to sleep. She screamed as if she was in pain (yeah. Losing Edward) during her sleep. And she spent much time with Jacob more than Edward. Okay. I don't have problem with Jacob, but, um, yeah, um, whateves.  

Too bad. I am not much of a Twihard, anyway. I haven't watch BREAKING DAWN PART 1. Haish. I'm waiting for BREAKING DAWN PART 2 to be released. Then, I'm going to buy the DVD for ALL 5 movies and here we go ............... MOVIES MARATHON! 

Don't judge me for my obsession. It's not like I care. Honestly, come to think of it, my past obsession was absurd. Now, I reach seventeen. But, that does not make me less immature, reckless, anyway. It has been years. I am still a fan. So, I'm going to reread the TWILIGHT SAGA. That was originally one of things that I'd love to do after SPM. Let's get it started!

Come to me ~



Hello, there!

27th November was supposed to be my last paper of SPM. So, um, is it okay for me to say I am OFFICIALLY no longer MURID SEKOLAH now, 5th December? :p

Technically, Last Thurs, I went to Kemaman and Puchong and Shah Alam and Kuala Lumpur. So yeah, I just got home recent Monday ., Then I watched Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge for the third times and A walk to remember for  the @#$$#%$ times! 

I'd love to read some really good books in the library, but still, I'm too lazy, jet lag, (perhaps?) to make a move. Maybe. Just maybe. I'm lazy to go outside because my skin is in bad condition (blemish), I've been using numerous skin products, but nothing works for me .. So, um, I'm giving The Body Shop a try to improve my skin. It's not because I don't know how to take care of my skin, but I just can't figure out which product is the best one. I read SEVENTEEN mag, for crying out loud, so, I am well-aware on one thing or two regarding skin care thingy :) 

I am surprised how contrast the number of entries on 2011 compared to 2012. I wrote like, 40 entries for 2011 and only ......... 4, yes FOUR entries for 2012. Can you imagine how hectic my (our) live as SPM candidates? It was crazy. The tension. The adrenaline. SPM was killing me. For two nights (including last night), I had dreams about exams, SPM or whatever you name it. It was dreadful, horrible, intense. The clock was ticking. I was like, I hadn't finish tackling these questions yet! Oh God. 

I am sincerely, truly glad SPM was over. Those tears. Those sweats. Those red eyes. Those eyes, waking up at 4am. It was a pure torture. But it was over. Now, I am hoping for the best. 



NOW. I PRESENT YOU ..... THE ONE AND ONLY.... 5 AMIr 2012!
