dramatic fellows

let the story begin~

once upon a time/ long long ago, lived a family of a married couple and 2 daughters on top of a hill called, Taylor's' hill. the family was fond of eating and they were always hungry. they were on 24 hours eating, and besides eating, still eating.
one day...
'winter is coming! go collect some berries!' said the papa. 'he' 's angry because 'he' 's hungry.

'papa papa, we're hungry too. can you pls pls pls collect the berries for us.' said daughter no. 1 on the right.

'yes yes, papa. you're the greatest papa on earth. daddy kin, you are the sweetest! you would collect the berries for us, ya?' said daughter no. 2 on the left.

'dear, don't you dare to ask me for help,PEACE. i have to look after our daughters, PEACE. we would be waiting for the berries..i mean you and the berries at home,PEACE. have a safe journey, dear~love ya~ muacks!' said mama before papa got to utter another word.

sigh, papa had to collect the berries all on 'his' own.

the ending of the story is, the family got to enjoy nice berries during winter. what a happily-ever-after ending.

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... (^^!!!)

muahaha. LAME, RITE? muahaha. i have nothing better to do beside eat, sleep and study. i'm darn bored! i need to distress! and that's how i get this stupid story.

to vonne, jul and yiying: pls don't kill me when you see this. love you gals most! muacks muacks muacks.

special thanks to:

vonne (as the papa)

yi ying (as the mama)

jul jul (as daughter no. 1)

and myself (as daughter no. 2)

*clap clap clap*
-do give a good laugh and some charity clap after reading,sweating and shivering.-

cheerio~

new-found enthusiasm.

no laughing, please, when i say that I'm currently addicted to ironing my clothes.
yes yes yes! it's so much of fun!


(before)

(after) ironing.

bet i have nothing better to do in subang jaya, I'm missing my family very much, currently under extreme stress of on-going trial (i consider this something happening. my 1st trial for a-levels, my 1st time realising I'm serious about my studies and blah blah blah.), all these random and lame excuses are leading me to do something out of my expectation, and tala~ here I'm, holding an iron in my hand, happily ironing my clothes. rofl.


i used to hate ironing and i have good reasons for that.

i burnt 3 pieces of clothes in a day (serious!) during my 1st attempt of ironing my clothes when i was in camp desaru (oh yes, i was one of those lucky fellows who got a strike on national service).
and all of my friends looked really pro in handling their clothes, and yea, i didn't want others to think that I'm a so-called 'princess' who doesn't know how to do anything, including ironing, so the ego in me was the factor i tried ironing.

the outcomes totally freaked me out. burning 3 pieces of clothes is not that bad, but having to wear those clothes is a TRAGEDY! OK, end of the story for my first attempt to ironing clothes.

anyway, i'm proud to say that i can handle ironing pretty well now. wee~ i'm happy~

i just had a chat with my mum on the phone and i brought the topic of rearing a dog. i want a Maltese! i will be a really good girl if i'm allowed to rear a Maltese! i promise!

it's Maltese! it's VERY CUTE, right? look at it's eyes! look at it's fur! aww..i heart Maltese!

it's Friday. have not been going home for more than a week. missing everyone in muar. I REPEAT: I'M MISSING EVERYONE IN MUAR! knowing some of my friends are going back makes me really sad. or maybe i shoud put it this way: 'i'm jealous and envious of you guys!'

carmen was happily telling me that he's going back and he'll pass a msg to my mum that i'm currently stressful sial (carmen, you bad guy!) and alvin is saying that he's sitting for paper 5 (i also dunno what's it) on monday and it's not that stressful which allows him to go back. i was like, 'shit! my chemistry paper 1 and paper 2 are on monday!' HAHAHAHAHA..what can i do? stay in subang n study.

sigh. i have no life at all for almost a week and i'm going to continue another week of life-less trial before i can get back to my life again. life can be boring with lots of examination, you see? maybe that's the reason of me thinking of having a pet. (don't get me right? it's a lame joke from my physics lecturer: 'get a pet to get a life.')

well, this is the end of this post. cheerio~

another 8 hours to go before my 1st paper for trial.
oh yes oh yes!
i'm nervous and nervy!
EXTREMELY NERVOUS and DREADFULLY NERVY!
just finished a cup of milk and i'm going to have an early night. chaoz~

good night, ppl~
to mummy and daddy: i miss you 2 very very much!

Saturday, March 22, 2008

i'm bored.

i've been turning my day to night and night to day.
burning mid-night oil has become an extremely bad habit of mine.
shoo. =.=
ok. it's unhealthy, it's a NONO from my parents, it's sth that my buddies will be rolling their eyes when they are told about this, blah blah and blah. i shouldn't be doing this, i know.
so, i'm going to turn in early tonight.
muahaha.
just TONIGHT. (ok, i'm going crazy AGAIN. ignore me.)

i found some really interesting emoticons and i really like them a lot.
%-) = confused / happy / drunk
:-& = tongue-tied
:-* = kiss
:-/ = mixed feelings
:-@ = scream
{{}} = hug
{{{}}} = hugs and kisses
&<:-( = dunce
0:-) = angel
aren't they fascinating? at least those emoticons interest me a lot. herm, i gonna try expressing myself more with all those emoticons rather than using lots words.

oh yes, i hurt my toes during my dinner.
it's freaking painful! *big OUCH from my toe*
it's an accident, due to my blurriness AGAIN.
oh yes, just like what i said, my blurriness is killing me.
my only worry is TETANUS, as the cut on my toe is caused by a kick on the 'iron leg' of a table.
i'm praying hard that the metal is not rusty and i really am worried bout my toe.
*acting emotionally and moodily, applying lots of antiseptic-germicide followed by antiseptic cream fretfully (hopefully i'm doing everything correctly)*
oh yes..lots of -ly ya?

my fervent hope for tomorrow:
able to wake up early in the morning (approximately 9 o'clock) and my toe will be showing no sigh of infection at ALL. i want a healthy toe.

this is katherine, blogging due to boredom and moodiness.

Friday, March 14, 2008

mission accomplished!

oh gosh. my blurriness is killing me.
i left my laptop's charger on my way back to subang.
i would never realise it if my mummy didn't call me.
funny, yea?
well, i survive a week of college life without using my laptop. *clap clap clap*


to be honest, life is miserable without laptop.
i need music to study and depending on my i-pod is definitely not going to last long. my i-pod is running out of battery and to charge it, i need my laptop!!

sigh sigh sigh.
well, every cloud has a silver lining. at least i have a week of revision and have more time for my homework. *wink*



i just got my laptop charger from wan pig pig (thanks, wan pig ^*^) and that's i'm blogging again.
it comes with 2 nougats. it must be my mum's idea. mummy is always the sweetest! thanks mama~


oh yes, oh yes!
the main point of this post--
i clean my room AGAIN.

it's a habit of mine to make sure that my room is perfectly clean before examination.
reason: i'm very particular towards cleanliness when I'm all tensed up (yes, I'm a weirdo). under extreme stress, i need a clean and comfortable room to rest and to study(of course).

hohohoho, i'm super satisfied with my room now.
i'll give a perfect 100% for the effort that i spent on Friday.


i just tidied it last week! i don't really know how it becomes messy again but it just did! argh! this time, it's a tsunami that causes all these mess. i can't stand looking at it!



i washed my bed sheet, my pillowcases and my blanket, leaving my bed 'naked'. sound so wrong. x) and i had to push my bed to aside to wipe the floor underneath it. i never know that i'm actually..erm..strong enough to push the bed.

it's in a terrible mess!


i had to carry some of my stuff out of my room to make space for me to do the job.
when my housemate (btw, kimlan is her name) passed by my room, she asked: 'wow. are you going to move out?'
i guess i did turn pink. lol. i was just trying to clean my room, kimlan.



after 4 hours of battling with the clutter and dust. i made it!
(to alvin: you better don't say that it has no much difference than before. it does make an OBVIOUS difference, ok? xp )



it's not a typical room-cleaning as i challenged myself to wash the fan hanging on the wall and the filters in the air-conditioner.



the air-conditioner is hanging so highly on the wall.
i had to jump up and down, up and down on my bed to reach the filters.
shoo~ =.= it's really tiring.


the fan is really very very very dirty lo. i guess my landlord and landlady had not been cleaning that wall fan for years. do they even know that this fan exist? this fan is so going to produce air pollutants. consider the dust, the germs, the bacterias, the viruses, etc. etc. sticking on the fan. when the fan works, what will happen? the air will be polluted! and when the air is polluted, what will happen? it will causes allergy (especially nose allergy). thinking of nose allergy is freaking me out, no one knows how miserable it is with a persistent runny nose & sneezing, stuffy nose or ears. the symptoms get worse at night, and i experienced waking up at 3 / 4 a.m. because of the pain in the nose. it is maddening and frustrating. oh boy oh boy, i'm so going to prevent myself from getting nose allergy.




the 'cleanest' fan i ever seen! gross!



see see see! it's covered with a super thick layer of dust lo!




i have to admit that i'm a height-handicap, and to reach the fan, i was stretching my hands like mad. i wanna grow taller soooooooooo much!


i actually had the idea of wrapping the fan with a big plastic bag so the dust will be kept forever and ever. BUT i couldn't find any big plastic bag, leaving me with no other choice but to clean it.
even if i got to find a super big plastic bag, imagine a big plastic bag hanging on the wall. and what if the plastic is red in colour? what if the plastic bag has the word 'TESCO' printed on it?(...sweat ^^!!!!)
i was thinking of using a cloth to wipe it but it's so not going to work.
the dust keeps dropping on the floor and ON MY FACE AND HAIR. argh!
i got really fed-up and i stormed into the kitchen, found myself a screw-driver and detached the fan off the wall.



this is my very 1st time cleaning a wall fan. it's working out the enthusiasm in me. gee~

it's a demanding task to put everything back. i thought i can't do it, not until i tried. and i learnt a lot from trying.
never draw any conclusion until you try your very best.
even if we failed for the 1st time, never mind, take a deep breath, try harder.


pictures of how i put everything back into its position:





deng deng deng! done! all done! how amazing it is!


hanging it back onto the wall (oh yea, i didn't mention how to took it down from the wall, rite? basically, i just keep pulling the fan (i mean the whole thing), shaking it to the left and right until it drops. luckily i didn't spoil it.)


*clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap*


self-fulfilment and contentment were filling me up. =) *big big smile on my face*


a screw-driver can make wonders yea?



it took me more than 5 hours to give my room a brand new breath.
i will never ever complain that moping the floor is tiring as i just went through something worse than that.

after all, i did enjoy myself though i'm totally worn out (not to mention about the backache i got).

after a whole day of hard work, katherine thinks that she deserves a good treat for herself.
it's reasonable to buy myself a twisties to pamper myself, yea?
*oh yes, twisties is currently my favourite junk food, not bytes from Cadbury anymore.
'change edi a?' 'yes! change edi!'*

this is going to be something that i will remember forever and something that i'm kinda proud of, an experience that i will keep as one of my precious memories. i just accomplished something that i never though i would be doing.
oh yes, it reminds me of the fortune cookies i got from vonne. oh yes, Chinese cookies speak.
my cookies said that: 'the great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.'
how true.

that's all for now. this is katherine signing off~

simply random

random post for what i had been doing, not everything, just part of it.
  • went to times square with wan pig pig and Helen, and spent a night at Helen's condominium at wangsa maju. we were having lots of fun watching movie, buying clothes and most importantly, eating! we did what a girl is supposed to do! we pampered ourselves with good food, happy hour and material satisfaction (well, just a little bit of it xp).






























yeap! we watched kungfu dunk! i kinda like the movie or should i say i like jay chou?















had chicken buffet at times square. spicy chicken is currently my favourite.


had no intention to sleep early as the night was still young at 9++. pig pig and i brought Helen's laptop to station 1 cafe, where Helen's is working at. we were busy with internet surfing and Helen was busy serving drinks. oh yes, we got a really nice tiramisu from one of the waiter at the cafe. awww..he's so sweet, but the cake is sweeter. big thanks to that gentleman.

this is Helen in her uniform. looking good huh, helen~ aza aza fighting!
  • did chemistry revision with kheng yoke at starbucks.
    went to startbucks after my nap from 6 till 9 p.m. i was really hungry and so did kheng yoke. i had a cup of mocha and chicken *something* bread; kheng yoke had a cup of mocha (right, goldfisshh?) and treasure pot. my bread tasted so-so and i think kheng yoke's treasure pot tasted heavenly nice. i liked it!


chicken *something* bread on the left and treasure pot on the right.






studying real hard, huh~


got really addicted to starbucks but can't afford to go often. this addiction is going to make me broke.
  • can never miss the chance to spend some time with my baby girl when i'm muar. she's beyond adorable! my mum and i drove her around to tanjung, wanna show her the monkeys at the tanjung (i suppose kids love animals.)but it's kinda late when we brought her there. all the monkeys had went home. how sad.

i go crazy looking at her innocent face. oh boy..she's so cute!

  • i got a natural curl on my hair when i got up this morning. what a surprise. unfortunately, the curl went off after my bath. =(

i'm considering to curl my hair. should i?

well, that's all for now. got to go~ i have a dinner to catch!
--oh yes! it's great to be be back in muar! i'm happy!--

ice monster?

attention: there was a blackout at 12.30 a.m. on 4th march 2008.
how can the power lines blow down like no body's business in the middle of the night!?
it's dark and i hate it.
i drank 3 cups of coffee just to stay up late at night for a revision.
and yea...a blackout! it ruined everything.
my caffeine was working but the electricity was making a fool of me.
duh..what can i do?

forget about feeling sad over the blackout, jul jul, vonne and i went to have some ice after a long day in the college. wee~
*we had our classes ended at 4 p.m. duh. it's freaking tiring.*
the shop is called ice monster.
i would call it 'ice angel' as they sell very nice 'ice' desserts. i'm a huge fan of 'ice' desserts!

look at the yellowish mascot of ice monster, it reminds me of a cartoon. guess what.
it's SPONGEBOB! it might be spongebob's papa or grandpa. spongebob's uncle or brother? ok.ignore me. i'm trying to be lame.
the mustache is ruining this cute fellow, or it's not?

we were at ICE MONSTER~

vonne loves sweet potatoes.

jul jul loves yam and red beans.

kath doesn't like sweet potatoes, a big 'NO' to yam, but <3 red beans and grass jelly.

magnified yam+red bean milk ice of jul jul.



magnified sweet potatoes milk ice of vonne.


it's pretty obvious that we're satisfied with the dessert. *burp* excuse me~
i gonna try strawberry's flavour next time. just wait =)

it's written that there's a promotion but we didn't receive any coupon after finishing 3 bowls of ice. herm..strange strange! anyway ppl, do try the desserts at ice monster.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

ahem ahem..there's one thing that keeps me happy for the past few days. that is >>>>>>>>>

MY NEW SOFT TOY!

something random: i cleaned and tidied my room! yeah! kinda proud of it though it's not something that is magnificent.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>after pouring lots of energy, burning lots of fat to keep my room clean~
