2009 Wish List…

So here I am again, it’s near the time of the year….( I have to say here that I’m just pulling yr legs people, so don’t feel obligated or take anything as a demand or anything personal.)  So every year I post my wish list. Well as the title says, it’s a wish list, so I won’t put up high expectations, just making my wishes ;-) Anyway it’s good to wish, coz last year I was truly blessed and everything I wished for came through… haha so here it goes :

Nokia 3710

New phone in mind...

As you can see I want a new phone, and did some browsing on the Internet, and found this ;-) Really like the look of it….Well I think I’ve been using my Sony now for like 3 to 4 yrs…and due to some reasons I want to change it. Next is :

Flower Box

Really like the look of this watch...

This is a watch by Swatch, it’s called FlowerBox(YSS222G). I really like the chrome effect and the colour ( obviously..it’s blue), and it looks really sweet. My current watch is not in good condition anymore, and I need a change because the watch holds some ” value” which I don’t intend to value anymore…does that make any sense ?? haha

Another watch choice is…..

Felicity Shimmer

Second watch choice...

This is the second watch that I really like…also from Swatch. Meet , Felicity Shimmer ( YCS 520). I like the sleek look it has, and the face of the watch. Nice.

I don’t mean to choose expensive watches but I can’t wear costume ones, as I have allergic reaction to anything ” fake”. Which is why I don’t wear costume jewellery. Plated also can’t. It has to be genuine….blame my skin..hehe ( my mum says I’m an expensive person … haha )

The rest of the things I wish for I don’t have pictures for them, so number 4 is :

4. Ikea-EIDE bed frame

5. Ikea-ANEBODA chest of 3 drawers

6. A white handbag OR a black one…. hehe ;-)

7. A new laptop…my current one is too small to work on for long hours. Need a regular size one to work on for longer hours.

8. DKNY , Be Delicious the green apple one is really nice. OR Ralph Lauren Cool is nice too :-)

9. Some $$$ would be nice too. Coz December usually go broke spending on gifts for people. So need more money so that more people can get gifts. ( I really enjoy giving gifts okay….)

10. Well in the end, things are all perishable, so I really wish for a good time after my exams, to be spent with family and of course friends. I know I have many appointments, so hope I can fulfil all of them before the New Year . That will truly be the most memorable gift, that no money can buy ;-)

The reason I’m putting up my wish list is coz I won’t be putting up anymore posts till after my exams ( ends Dec 9 ). So I’m putting this up early..hehe. As you noticed, my choice of wishes  this year are personal , and some are like for my room, well coz first , I want to make some changes for my personal things, as I’m taking on a new approach to live, and everything in the past, I want to leave behind. Secondly, I’m planning to re-do my room after my exam. ( yes you heard that right, re-do my room…AGAIN !! haha ) Anyone wants to offer help to re-paint it ?? need muscles too to move out all the junk !! Haha

This is also a post to give a shout out to all my butt-ies that will be taking their STPM, or other major exams….

” ALL THE BEST GUYS AND GALS !! WE CAN DO THIS, AS LONG AS WE BELIEVE IN OURSELVES !!! “

And to my dear blog readers, happy reading, and await more in December with anticipation !! Logging off now….take care :-)

Yours truly,

Sarah

Missed me??

haha I guess not many ppl missed me her in blogging world eh ? Haha anyway sorry to my blog readers, well I was unavailable as I was having trial exams…which were erm…okay lets not talk about it . Today’s post is about …. :

Manglish !!! Haha how many times have we been caught using it? Some people can also have full justification on why they speak that way, and are super proud of it. I don’t feel that way ….Though I myself am guilty of speaking that way, but I don’t think we should justify our actions when it comes to speaking horrible and sometimes uncomprehendable English. It’s okay for me but sometimes it can get pretty annoying, especially when I can’t understand what is being said. On the other hand, when some one speaks with a heavy accent, be it American, British, Australian or any other…I find it sooo hard to understand at times too ! So what’s to all this language atrocities ??

Well that’s all I have to say, it’s to leave you all thinking :-) A fellow blogger wrote a very good post on this and I was truly inspired to share this real life happenings which left me either dumb-founded OR laughing till my stomach and cheeks hurt so bad just from laughing ;-) ENJOY !

1. When I was pretty young , my family and I were  in a shop having Western food,  the waiter came all nicely dressed up and served us. When our food came, he asked ,” Do you want more chos ? ” . We all responded together , ” What ? ” Again it was repeated, ” Do you want more chos ? ” And the same question and answer went on btwn us and the waiter for 3 times, until finally he walked away and came back with a bottle of ketchup and chilli sauce. We all were like ,” OHH !! sauce !! ( poor waiter must have gotten mixed up with the pronounciation of sauce and sos )

2. My cousin was about 5 yrs old, and well obviously learning to spell. This was the conversation between grandpa and her. ( THIS IS THE RESULT OF POOR PRONOUNCIATION AND MANGLISH ) Cousin : Akong, how to spell niao-mind ?

Grandpa a.k.a akong : Nevermind ? N-E-V-E-R-M-I-N-D-

Cousin : ( she wrote the word just spelled out by grandpa ) NO la akong, that’s never–mind. I want you to spell niao–mind

Grandpa : There is no such word as niao–mind

Cousin : Got !! We always say wan…

( Haha …get the joke?? So do YOU say niao-mind or never-mind ? )

3. The result of  English words converted to BM, such as physical, fizikal etc… Again revolves around my cousin, she was  about 6 or 7 and mum and her we in the car driving, and she was reading signboards … :

Cousin : Mummy look ! A was ( read it literally as a was )

Mum : What is a was ?

Cousin : There the signboard says a was

Mum : ( turns to look ) NO , that’s AWAS !

( get it ? hahahaha )

Just had to share some of this. Bring some laughter to this emo blog..hahaha hope you enjoyed it. Share yr experiences if you have any. I have many more but then keeping it for next time :-)

Past vs. Present

Well I’ve been looking through photo albums and I just think I had a fabulous childhood. Lots and lots of memories in my childhood years. Well my teenage years weren’t as nice, had a lot of things to deal with and I guess tasted more salt than I wanted to taste, and well everyone has regrets, and so do I. Back to reference to my first line…I laughed till I cried at some of the pictures. How people change physically in appearance over the years and at the same time also I felt sad and disappointed with myself, as I haven’t talked to some of my friends for ages and ages. Sigh, when everyone moves on with life, and you’re not in it, well that’s not the nicest thing to find out.

Anyhow I had the bestest of friends growing up, and in many ways they have formed and build me up in character in one way. I stayed up till  2 am yesterday just thinking of all the things that have happened and thinking of my good dear friends. Anyway why the mushy and super-emo feelings ? Well I guess coz I’m moving on to another chapter of my life, and well I’m feeling old and out of shape , imcompetence and well just so tired of everything. ( guess the stress levels in me are reaching a dangerous high …)

I do wonder, what will I be like in a few  years time…and what my future holds. On the other hand if I do know what my future holds, I wouldn’t be experiencing ups and downs but instead I’ll probably be trying and fighting all my life to get away from all the bad and negatives. So perhaps not knowing is a good thing :-) I’ve reached a point where I have decided I want to reach for my dreams and achieve my goals without having to look to others or cling on to others like a vice.

( This may sound chauvinist but I don’t mean it in that way okay ) Well many  around me have begin to ask whether I’m involved romantically with anyone, and even my parents did drop a hint or two, or rather they’re just being parents , and I guess out of curiousity . Well I don’t have anyone, and not thinking of anyone ( or as my friend says, a target :-) ) It’s just come to if there’s anyone suitable then I may think about it, but if not then it’s okay. Basically I don’t hate guys or men, I just don’t see a need to have that kind of relationship now. Having company and friends is nice, but not that kind of company xD.

So what are my reasons ? Well first I want to study first, get into Uni and start my course of choice. Then after that, I may want to work and travel around  the world a bit before I settle down and make my mark in the working world. I know I can’t afford to travel all over the world but there are some places that I do want to go to, and having a relationship of that kind may just lead to no where at this point, and so I’m not looking toward it. Of course there were past hurts and lots of things I’ve been through even in terms of just platonic friendsips. So I guess, letting myself heal would be good before jumping in again right ?

So I would like to thank all my friends and people that had been around me for ages, even if now we don’t really meet or hardly talk, I do cherish you all and still think of you all , just sometimes its so hard to know where to start again now. Maybe a simple hi would do…. but I really love you all and am truly grateful for all you’ve given and  done for me :-) So here goes the list of names ( well I can’t fit everyone in so here are some, and the rest, thanks super lots !!! )

THANK YOU ….Family, Michelle, Aly, Ai Vee , Jared, Calista, Esther , Mei-Mei jie jie, Vivian, Fharyl, Belinda , Lionel , D.R, K.K , Adi, Wayne, Nancy, Carmille, Szu Li , Lei Ngoh and all the beloved aunties and uncles too !!

( I wanted to upload childhood pics , but sorry guys no scanner la. If I can, I would, and haha I bet some of you will laugh yr pants off ;-) – invitation to my hse to view photos is opened though …hehehe

S’mua Baik ….

Dari semula t’lah Kau tetapkan

HidupKu dalam tanganMu

Dalam rencanaMu Tuhan

Rencana indah t’lah Kau siapkan

Bagi masa depanku

Yang penuh harapan

Reff :

S’mua baik, s’mua baik

S’gala yang  t’lah Kau perbuat di dalam hidupku

S’mua baik , sungguh teramat baik

Kau jadikan hidupku berarti

Isolation

That’s how I feel,
I give up.
All my hopes and dreams had been shattered ,
I was just in denial.
I’m invisible….
It would be so nice to dissappear into thin air,
No one would ever know,
That would be true isolation,
Alone and unheard of forever.

Re-activated ??

Well dear readers,

This is just for any of you that had read yesterday’s post, and is probably wondering where it dissappeared to. Well I decided to delete that post, a step to eliminating all the negativity in me. SO yeah that’s what I did. SO instead of wallowing in my sorrows I decide to step up and show sadness that anytime it’s gonna lose out to joy and happiness. I’m really enjoying my friends in Six form, who would have thought just one and a half years of knowing each other, and we’ve become so connected to each other. Maybe the thought of exam round the corner and then going separate ways has thrown me into a pit or whirlpool of distress….however its crunch time now, and I gotta put up my best and face the worst, and study the smartest and hardest. Hope to do everyone proud, and achieve success for myself too !!!!

p/s: I thought of doing a review for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, but then I might be too opiniate , erm so maybe not. Haha wanna hear my thoughts on the movie, well then you’ll have to talk to me personally or email me ;-)

CRAVINGS ?? Normal-kah ?

Have you ever felt like suddenly grabbing your car keys, and heading off to yr favourite stall to buy something you really like ? Then after getting it, you consume it in private, slowly enjoying very mouthful and savouring every mouthful of it ? Well if you don’t drive, then how about when yr taking a nap, then suddenly awaken, and feel a strong intensity inside you to eat peanut butter sandwich……and if you don’t the rest of the nap is totally ruined and so is your mood for the whole day.

Well these often happens to me….Hahaha don’t believe it ? Well you gotta, coz I ain’t lying…Haha I get seriously horrendous cravings at the wrong times, and can be very affected by it. It can be quite bad as to my friends pass remarks like, ” eh…you like pregnant woman only…can’t imagine when you really are, yr ppor husband !! ” Hahhaa Well  I don’t blame them for saying that, coz i do get cravings quite often. SOmetimes even for things I don’t really fancy. SOmetimes I don’t even need to eat it, just need to smell it.

I get cravings for stuff like burgers, fries, doughnuts, mangoes, guavas, vegetable soup, hokkien mee in PJ, fishball , chocolate,fried kuey teow,  iced  blended coffee smoothies, hot chocolate drink…and lots more..Sometimes its scary what I crave for. Hahaha I’m very sensitive to smell, so it may even be walking into a bakery just coz there’s the nice smell of freshly baked bread !!! Hahaha crazy right ??? Exactly !! I know !!! But sometimes I really can’t help it, the craving will get soooooo strong that it affects my daily progress and can even make me have the craziest mood swings, which leaves me pretty upset and grouchy ;-)

SO I don’t always feed the craving, sometimes I do, but other times I’ll just let it pass if its not too strong, then other times I’ll get others to go with me, so it can be shared out :-) If not can you imagine my size if I feed those cravings ? And I get them quite often..hehehe ( not that I’m any smaller now..haha )

SO my CRAVING for today is pancakes and a cup of hot chocolate…arrgghh how I wished I lived in Damansara..haha then it’ll be so much nearer…hehe I love the savoury pancakes in Paddington Pancake House, and the hot chocolate is super duper chocolatey…if you don’t like chocolate, try the cappucino…Arrghhh I’m making things worst for myself ….Okay I’m gonna try and get my mind off this craving for a moment….

Bye !!

New beginning … ?

Dear readers,

I’ve decided to come to terms with certain things, and realized that though how much we try, or how sincere we are, most of the time most things don’t turn out the way we like, people don’t appreciate us, and moreover our actual intention is turned into something its not suppose to be. I really don’t understand how the world works or how people work. I think the world is a wonderful and beautiful place, but its we humans in it, that has turned it into the most ugly thing, filled with lies, deceit, backstabbing, cursing, sin, impure thoughts, and inhumane actions.

It’s tough living in this world today. People that you trust, that are the closest to you, that you can trust yr life with, that you trust understand you, and love you, and whom you think are willing to stand by you, willing to talk it out with you like a grown -up when somethings not right, instead turn around and throw everything rght back in yr face. The saddest part is there’s pretence, lies, and gossip all around. SOmetimes the people around you that are closest to you, are the ones that will break you down to your lowest, and into the core of you. Imagine the heartache, heartbreak, and the deep hurt. It feels as if I’ve taken a knife into my own hands and plunged it into my own chest. Because being hurt or betrayed by others are not so bad, but being done so by people you truly love and care about its like killing me softly, slyly , and its more like a crime of passion.

So what’s the point of this post ? Well this is a post to say that I’m leaving everything behind. I’ve found love, friendship, a truthful, honest, and faithful relationship, that has taught me a lot. I’ve learnt to forgive and just move on, not to dwell or wallow in sorrows, because there is not point in it. Coz as my dearest has said, that most of the time, its the devil that wants to get between us, and try to break us down to our lowest, at the point where we’re reaching a point of breakthrough, or we draw nearer to God. I must say I was at a point of full recovery, but something came about and broke me down again. But thanks to my dear friend, and much needed support, I’m leaving it all behind me now. Moving on to a new start , and new relationships perhaps ??

Anyway hope you guys like the theme :-) And I’m enjoying my holidays, spending time with my beloved brother ( miss him alot as when he works he’s pretty busy ) , my lovely aunt and darling cousin ( hardly get to spend time with them too on usual days ) ….so truly cherish it ….and I’m being BUGGED by my brother !!! Arrgghh that’s the irritating part…haha but its also these times that I actually do MISS !!! when he’s away ;-) So I’ll go ” enjoy”  the irritating-ness !!!! Hahahaha I just heard him exclaim loudly in the background,that I love disturbing my sister !!! Hahaha

So long and farewell for now dear readers

Stage names ? ? ?

Switching channels yesterday, and I came across a reality show, and so happened, they were talking about stage names/ nick names that superstars, actors and singers use, such as Twiggy, Tyra Banks, Giselle Bundchen, Tom Cruise, Vin Diesel and many more. SO I was thinking….

Have you ever had nicknames ? I mean we may not have stage names coz we’re not in the limelight such as they are. On the show, they were saying that with an attrctive an unusual name, you can strike up superb conversations with people just by introducing yourself. So what do you all think ???

Just to get that brain power going, let me share with you my list of nicknames, mind you, almost all my nicknames have a story behind it. And second precaution, I have a lot…and I mean a lot of nicknames !!! haha so here is goes …

Let’s start with the nicer ones first….

Princess…. Tall-lie….Giraffe…Orang utan….Horse…Harry Potter ( not that I’m a fan of his ) ….Giant… Sweetie….Bao Bei…Baby…and Mak Cik

AS you can see…..most of my nicknames or rather all are pretty weird and i dunno how to describe it ….HAaha So would I walk up to maybe a hot guy or someone interesting that I would like to start a conversation with, not knowing how to start it, and end up wanting to start it off with a super fun, strange, attention-grabbing name ? I guess it would sound something like that,

” Hey, I’m Giraffe Princess  … ? ” Hahahahahaa Or ” Hi, I’m Baby Giant ?? ” Hahahaha

Anyhow you go figure on yr own, what a strangely hilarious sight that would be, and I can imagine the look on the receiver’s end !!!! HAHAHAHA !!! Enjoy playing with the names…And maybe share some of yr experiences too in the comment boxes .

As for me , I think I’ll just stick with ” Hey, I’m Sarah !!! ” :-)
