Trippy Things

Picture this. You're walking on the street. Walking, walking, still walking and SUDDENLY the phone rings. Who could be calling, you wonder? and before you can take another step you realise its none other than dear Mr.Nature who's calling you.

You walk in circles looking for a restroom and lucky you, you find one in the middle of the street (of all places?). This is no ordinary toilet that you've found here. Its exterior is one large mirror. So you walk into it like the lady in the picture below.................

One step inside, and this is what you see...

WOULD YOU?? COULD YOU???

Situation 2 : You're in the 40th floor of a building and again the phone rings and it's the SAME PERSON (Mr.Nature). You make your way to the toilet and what do you find this time?

Well, its only a floor painted to mess with your head. But would you step into this restroom without an ounce of fear?

This is the ceiling mural of a smoker's lounge.

Well said, or in this case, painted.

My Name is Mary Alice Young

The title makes sense if you've watched Desperate Housewives.

I've been having problems remembering fonts. Im not sure what I used in the previous post.

Anyway, below is a picture of us (May,Michelle and I) during an attempted photoshoot for one of our assignments. We're researching on Apple Inc, hence the apples on our heads - we decided to be literal by using the fruit to symbolize the company. Instead of just holding the apples à la Desperate Housewives, we tried the whole see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil concept. AND we dressed in black and white. Are we creative or what?

May looks sinister as if she would have a lot of evil things to say.

I don't look too happy happy about not being able to hear anything evil.

Michelle looks delighted that she's not able to see any evil.

Diversity, yes. Actually we ARE the most diverse group in class :)

On another note, our work has been PLAGIARIZED by the unmentionables. Hmph!

I Tried Sushi!

Overdue, yes yes.

A few weeks back, i celebrated(well not really) my 20th birthday. I got a call at 12 from my darling Juess and my other darling ;)

Oh and i attempted to drive my brothers Volkswagen-and killed it thanks to my disability to balance the clutch/accelerator. The next day my lovely 'ladies' took me out for a really late lunch at Sushi Zanmai in 1Utama. It was my first time having sushi and i must say, its not all that bad. I always assumed it to be raw fish rolled in rice. But being me, i wasn't brave enough to try anything funky like octopus and eel. But the rice dish and prawn/crab sushi i had was delicious! After that we headed to the fake rainforest to take pictures. It was a beautiful day, so we managed to take beautiful pictures.

Later that night, my brother ordered in Domino's Pizza(his treat). I have newfound love for their double-decker crust with lots and lots of cheese. Oh my god...too good to be true. We had that with cheese and garlic rings and coke. He was soooo nice to me the whole day! I love him and thats not just because he bought me food.

Well, it wasn't an extravagant day but at least I was able to spend it with people I love and that's what matters most right?

Hau Loong, Pradeep, Yazna and I during one of our poser moments.

I love them! and I love this picture

Pradeep's delicious dessert. Tasted like heaven(he shared it with me-now I love him too)

Sushi sushi and more sushi!

Chern Yi, Cher Waye, Jeffrey and I

Ok this is quite random. It was taken before Cher Waye left for London. One of our farewell dinners. I miss her! Its not going to be the same not having her around during our outings but Im sure she's rocking London :)

Mind Your Language - It's Engrish, Not English

Language. Its probably more important than money. Really, where would we be without it?

There are times when we tend to overlook things and make little mistakes here and there. But there's a thin line between making a minor mistake and totally changing the meaning of a sentence which ends up in utter nonsense or even worse, a whole new sentence that actually makes sense(more often than not, with an unpleasant meaning)

I've seen a signboard in in India that says 'Welcome to this seop'. What in the name of god is a SEOP??? I think its supposed to be 'shop'.

Anyway, here are some of the ridiculous mistakes that people make while constructing the simplest of sentences. Enjoyyy ;)

Probably the jazz version

So the wicked witch/evil stepmother from Snow White is not a fictional character after all

Prease put the bottre of rotion on the tabre

Vegetable oil, butter, shortening and WHAT?!

Nothing like a refreshing ASS drink on a hot day!

Now we know where the grinch lives!

And if you die, please go to the hospital

So you CAN buy it

Okay, I'll pick a different place.

Yes, they do come in packets now. Just add water.

Anyone hiring? Look who's suffering during the recession

A good meal i'll definitely have!

Talk about being clingy....

Jurassic Park

There was this group meeting earlier today, regarding one of our assignments. We were like nomads moving from McDonalds, to a park, back to McDonalds and then to Starbucks. We were there from 4 till 9 :O

So after we completed part of the assignment (involving many 'heated' arguments), we were deciding on where to have dinner, and all of realised that we were craving for chicken from KFC. Soooooo, we came up with the brilliant plan of walking ALL THE WAY to 1Utama from Centrepoint(that was where the nearest KFC was). We walked and walked. Half an hour later, we reached, practically inhaled the food and got ready for the walk back.

We could've taken the same route back but noooooo we thought we should take the other road because it was brighter and less dangerous looking. Oh what a HUGE mistake that was. We were stranded in the middle of some housing area in which all the exits had huge gates which were locked. It felt like Jurassic Park. It was dark, quiet and dogs were not happy to see us.

After an hour of continous walking, we reached Centrepoint and what a huge relief it was. But i have to say, it wasn't all that bad being stuck in a 'cage' with a group of wonderful people :)

Of Kangaroos and Koalas

I visited Melbourne 2 months back. It was such a spontaneous decision. Air Asia fares were too low to resist. Well, it was probably one of the best holidays I've ever had.
The thing about Melbourne is that the infrastructure is almost exactly the same as Malaysia, but its so much cleaner and the people are much nicer.

But I did miss the Malaysian weather after a week. It was TOO COLD. When I left KL, it was 32 degrees celsius and when I landed in Melbourne it was 2 degrees :/
Talk about drastic temperature changes.

Anyway, I was there to visit my 2 favorite people.

Dinesh and Jas

And while I was there, I had the privilege to meet other lovely people :) The other wonderful people

While I was there, we visited a few places. One of them was the The Great Ocean Road, one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. We drove for about 12 hours along the ocean and the view was BREATHTAKING. Nothing but clear blue water that goes on and on for miles. We watched the sunset from the edge of some cliffs- The Twelve Apostles. The pictures dont do it any justice.

We were all zombies by the time we got home. :P The Twelve Apostles

The next day we went up Mount Dandenong, again, to watch the sunset but it had rained that afternoon so the sky wasn't as colorful as it should have been. But we could see Melbourne City in the distance and other suburbs surrounding it. Again, thanks to the rain, we were all shivering and it was almost impossible to get a picture that was not blur, but we did manage to get some really good shots.

Then came the trip to the zoo. My intelligence is questionable at times- who wears high heeled boots to the ZOO? The lack of common sense had its effects :(
Anyway, the zoo. I managed to see kangaroos for the first time! They weren't hopping as I had expected, but nevermind. While we were at the reptile house, we heard the most disturbingly hilarious conversation between a man and his son (probably 4 or 5 years old). In one of the displays were 2 chameleons mating, and this is how their conversation went.

Son: Daddy, what are they doing?
Man: They're doing a dance.
Son: Can we do one?
Man: Uh..no..

HAHAHA :P Ai and I

The worst part about a holiday is leaving. Its just the most depressing feeling in the world. But i did have the best 2 weeks thanks to both my loves :)

The First

My first proper blog post after countless attempts to start a decent one! I turn 20 tomorrow and since i have all this free time, i thought i should start a blog; something to jot down the happenings and my thoughts so that there's a chance i remember them maybe 20 years from now :)

I have so many thoughts and im constantly thinking so i thought i'd maybe put some of my thoughts and memories here-something like Dumbledore's pensieve (HAHA!). Mind you, its not going to be one of those blogs where all the ranting and whining happens,well not directly anyway.

Im not sure how this whole thing works YET, all the choosing of templates (you cant go wrong with black) and fonts. Someday, SOMEDAY, it might get the hang of it.

I'll fill you in on my many adventures and misadventures in my upcoming posts. For now, there's work that needs to be done and procrastination is my middle name.

Cheers!
