I am flying back to the States this Sunday. How do I feel? I really don't know. I am really looking forward to getting my own room and my own stuffs back especially my computer, that's for sure. But the big problem is I am just not soo ready to start school. Gotten used to 3 months of not studying I guess...duh. Plus, I never like studying to begin with. Benkyou ga daikirai!

Gonna go watch Janji Joni tomorrow. Alone. Everyone else is busy with work and classes. Hope it's a good movie. Why I seldom go watch English movie? I've already gotten the pirated DVDs, haha. As for today, it's packing packing packing all day long! Shucks...

And ahh, to all my friends in Malaysia. Thanks for making my summer break a bearable one. Though we might not spend as much time as we could, the time we had is still very precious. Especially to my very dearest friend who's always there for me when I need her and always sharing great stories. I'm gonna miss you. You know who you are. Thank you.

I decided to just use the template listed by Blogger this time. I don't really have time anymore to maintain my own designed template. On current weather in Malaysia, it rains almost every evening since last weekend. As a matter of fact, typhoon and hurricanes hit Japan and Florida. I find it hard to drive around the city since my eyesight is not so good during rainy day. I guess this is due to the Rain wave that hit Asia recently, huh? To celebrate the sudden boom of Rain, a Korean popstar cum actor, it's been raining ever since. Hahaha, okay I totally made that reason up. But his sudden popularity is a no no lie. I went to a magazine store, and there lining up from one end till the other, is his face on every HK/Chinese mags. I mean, wow man. Never see that happen to before except during Brad & Jen marriage fallout. However, this guy not that bad larr. He's like Asia's Usher (except that Usher can't act) and definitely fairer. Heh. Alrighty, gotta go get ready for a family dinner at Shah Alam. Till the, peace and out.

Oh! Nicholas Saputra with his new clean cut short hair, so very handsome. Looking extremely hot in that sleek brown suit on the red carpet. And Dian also is very very pretty.

But that's not the main point here. Yang utamanya ialah... here are the photos from my trip to Penang. Not so many as I don't really have time for it. Food was heaven there, mee udang, nasi kandar and of course char kuey teow. Went shopping too and got myself two new handbags(a fake Christian Dior and an original MNG, one Muse Stockholm Syndrome t-shirt, one top, one skirt and 6 pirated DVDs. Best best.



And this one below is photos from Hawa's wedding. I'm so happy to meet my old friends but so sad that I can no longer grab Hawa at anytime I want and have girls-day-out with her. It is still unbelievable for me that she's already married. She looked so beautiful that day. And so does all my stunning friends who attended the ceremony. I love you all to bits. And I wish to my newlywed friend all the best and a blissful marriage.

People in Malaysia, have you peeked outside your window? Haze situation here has worsened drastically over the past few days. When I went to pay for my parking fees today, I could practically see the haze shrouding IN the carpark! My sis's school is closing tomorrow and Friday. Clinics at seven areas in KL are warned to take safety precautions. So are the fishermen. Some people have started to wear mask (you know the kind that we wear last time in school when the first haze wave hit Malaysia). And now the haze is slowly spreading towards East Coast. Fuhh... seems serious nie... so I'm just gonna sit my butt tight at home until it is safe to go out again.

Next week is Hawa's wedding day! I'm so excited I have already bought present. Susah btol to buy a present for a married student and I eventually decided to get two matched sets of attire that both can wear. Spend over RM 100 for it and I highly hope the bride and groom will love it. The day after that, I'm off to Penang! Yeah, yeah, finally. A trip back to Malaysia is not complete without a holiday there and I really love Penang anyway. It's like KL, with better cheaper food plus beautiful beaches.

To fill those empty boring spaces in my life since I've stopped working, I decided to go to Speedy last Saturday and grabbed the famous Taiwanese series Meteor Garden VCDs pack. The drama was highly recommended by my close friend but I am a bit 'ketinggalan zaman' since the drama was aired in 2001. 19 VCDs! It will take some of my time to be able to finish it. Why I love to watch Asian dramas, I can never comprehend. Perhaps it is due to my childhood environment being exposed to a lot of Cantonese dramas on TV. Up till today, I am still hype up whenever I see an interesting Cantonese drama ad on TV. I remembered a funny incident last month when I bumped into my dad on my way out of the kitchen because I was running fastly towards the living room, not wanting to miss the final episode of this one Cantonese drama. Hahaha... Now adding to my addiction of Asian drama is Japanese and perhaps soon Taiwanase/Chinese. Not that I don't love Western dramas. I am so in love with The OC and Desperate Housewives. I think they have brilliant casts and scripts and missing an episode is something I avoid to do. But there're certain qualities in Asian dramas that one can't find in Western dramas. Being an Asian myself, there are certain traits and scenes where I can relate to myself or make the logic out of it and thus, producing a stronger interest and "emotional-connection" for these dramas. Plus, I love the screen so much, don't I? More than I love music. So there. One good plausible reason for spending RM 69.90 on Meteor Garden :p. And with no regrets too coz I am fully enjoying the story rite now!
