i am bored. how much bored-er could i get..

Friday, June 15th, 2007

guess what? i am bored. it’s 11.47 pm and i’m here. it’s my last day of coll for the week (cos i dont have class on fridays) and i’m sitting at home. how sad is that la seriously?

i need to spice up my life la. the only other fun thing that happened recently was when i went out for dinner with Pedram last saturday, where we laughed and laughed and laughed. and cos i was so tired i mumbled rubbish, and he was partially deaf, so you know la, put a mumbler and a deaf person together.. voila, you get such gibberish. hehe =) and the next interesting that’s gonna happen is sab’s party! =) can’t wait for that. hoohoo. nothing else happens lah. i go to coll, come back, do my research, assignments, bla bla. even tv’s getting a lil boring to me. and i can’t even go out, cos of the problem of common timing. i feel like a nerd. eeeeesh. but i’m totally not one!!

well, stan’s busy clubbing right now, and he has been the past 3 weeks. can you believe it? and according to him he thought of bringing me along. hahaha. bad idea. i forgot what clubbing is already. that’s how long ago i went clubbing. i was watching “so you think you can dance” just now on 8TV, and they have it in Ruums KL. i’ve been there. went with Aple and gang and Sue and gang. by far, that was the most happening clubbing i’ve been for =) it was really fun. and when was that? in february. hmmm… well, not that i club club, but i just dance, that’s all. oh ya, i can go clubbing again on 5 July, if i decide to go with sue and gang =)

today, i got home soaking wet to my bones. seriously, you know how heavy the rain was? it was like a storm! i stepped out of the bus and within seconds i was totally wet. lucky i asked my mom to pick me up from the bus stop. but it didn’t really make a difference anyway. and then i realised, how often do i actually get or let myself get wet like that? hardly! so at first i was like HAIYOH, and then i was like hooray, i’m wet. =) rain wet, that is. for you little dirty minds out there. MSN is so boring now, where is everyone?!?

last week, i got left behind twice. literally left behind =) hehe. it’s funny though, let me tell you. on saturday, i went with stan to watch my sister perform in sunway pyramid. and then later on, we were waiting for the lift to go up. so i was waiting, and looking at the new so-called map they had beside the door of the lift. stan was next to me. and then i dunno what made me turn, but i turned and found him missing. and i stepped up and saw him standing IN the lift, and i was OUTSIDE. the lift was full, and he saw me. then he motioned for the girl to open the door, but according to him, she was blur. so there it was, i stood in front of the door, smiling in helplessness as the doors closed on me. hahaha.. and so i just waited for the next lift, but i wasn’t even exactly sure where he went. so i took a guess and ended up in the right level. he was standing outside the door. gosh, i really didn’t know what to say. to laugh or to get mad. in the end, i just brushed it off lah, and of course, he didn’t escape without getting some ticking off for always and i mean ALWAYS leaving me behind. walking ahead of me and then turning around wondering where i am, when he can slow down! or when i can speed up, but why should i speed up when it’s a leisurely walk? hmmmmmmm…

well anyway, the 2nd time i got left behind was… in coll. that was on monday. well, i told sab i’d be staying back cos i had to do research. and her class ends at 6. so it was 6.15, and i msged her asking if she was done, then she calls and says “B!!!!! i’m so so so so sorry, the van came and we just jumped in…” and i said “oh, you left coll already?” and she was like yeah. and i was just laughing. i found it funny, cos i dunno, it was just funny. and she was saying sorry like so many times when she msged, and said how terrible she felt and all.. and i was just like chill, it’s ok. hehe. she’s so cute. so in the end, she and yogee were so sweet.. they waited for me at the KTM station. =)

oh sigh, i gtg now, my sister wants to use the laptop.. will write again when i can.

aerobics! and Family Day

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

i managed to pull off my aerobics stint for Family Day! so happy =)

well, i was asked to do it like many weeks ago, but somehow, i just didn’t get to starting on it right til the week before the Family Day! can you imagine, i was like in dead hot soup if i didn’t think of something fast.

so, when i finally started to THINK of a song, i browsed through my sister’s list of songs in her laptop. looking for the perfect song to match aerobics with isn’t easy at all. and at that time, i seriously regretted not starting off earlier. that was Tuesday afternoon like that, and my first practice was on Tuesday night, the same day. i only called for practice on Sunday! look at me, so inefficient. ish!

so i browsed through, and found like 3 or 4 songs, shortlisted from a LONG list. that took some time too. and then, i found my #1 song, perfect to start it off, “Step Up-Cheetah Girls”. well, it’s like a Disney originated band, but still it was a real good song to begin with! and so i had to visualise the steps, which i also managed to do =) and then i got my #2 song “Emotions-Mariah Carey”. hehe.. well, i couldn’t think of my 3rd song yet. actually, i didn’t even know how many songs i was gonna do! but i know that aerobics was suppose to last 10mins +/- so i didn’t worry about that yet..

and so i got the practice going. i was kinda disappointed, was expecting more ppl, but that’s ok, at least 6 ppl came for the first practice. i practice with them and everything la. can you believe it, i came up with steps on the spot =) i mean, i played the song and ran thru my mind some possible steps. it was simple la, but they all enjoyed it. it was actually fun!

and then my 2nd practice came, and i repeated what i did on Tuesday with a few more new ppl. and that was that. it was cool =) but not cool too, cos i have yet to find 2/3 more songs to lengthen the time and to end it also.. then, i did find my 3rd song, “Gettin’ Jiggy With It-Will Smith”. i guess they all liked this song and its steps, cos even when i asked them if they wanted a break, they said no!! they still wanted to practice and get it right. that’s totally encouraging =) and well, i found my 4th and 5th (final song) on Friday [Family Day was on Saturday!]. “Wild Wild West-Will Smith” and “I Like to Move It-Madagascar OST”. wow, i was pretty delighted that i picked a perfect combination of songs. but eventually, i ran out of steps, and i was so tired already.. it was 10mins to the end of practice on Friday, and i managed to finish the whole thing eventually. wooohoo!! the guys and girls were all excited too! so was i. hehe.

then, at night i was out la, and came back pretty late, at like 2 something am. and i was suppose to burn the CDs and piece the songs together, with my bro’s hellp, but he was asleep before me! and i was like, shit, i have to get up early and do it. but i burned the CDs first, choosing songs for the sound machine [which eventually never got used, eeesh] that took some time and by the time i finished it was like 4am..and also at the same time i was up la, sorta awaiting updates from stan, cos his bro was in the hospital, and had some bad gastric problem or somethin..so just wanted to be there for stan, if not in person =) cos poor fella, was like on his feet the whole day, and then plus the hospital incident, the waiting and everything, he didn’t even get rest and all.. and i had to wake up at 6am to get my bro to edit the songs. i got up, but i pitied my poor bro, so i woke him up later a bit at 7am. the event was to start at 8.30 am! so i got him up and then i freaked out. the samplitude program used to edit the songs wasn’t installed in my dad’s laptop!!

i was soo freaked out, so i searched for the CD, found it, but it was another version of it! i panicked again, and went in search again, and found the proper one. installed it and everything was ok. then when recording the songs, it came out with bad noise, i was really unhappy about it, so i told my bro just re-record the whole thing.. it was 8am. i panicked, running out of time. and then he did it, and while he took his bath i was cutting and editing the songs, and pieced it together, didn’t matter if it was perfect or not i just needed to get it done. and i did it, and then told my bro to convert it to the .WAV file.. and then disaster again, the thing was missing. OMG, you couldn’t imagine what a silent-panic case i was.. my dad came to the rescue, he was fretting cos i was doing a last-min job, and i woke him up out of sleep..but i just swallowed everything and ignored it and prayed and hoped he’d make it work. and he did. i was thrilled. cos it worked! and so everything was done, burned the CD and all, and it was 8.45am. i rushed my mom and bro, and sped to church in 7mins. drove like dunno what, but safe la. heheh. and i told my mom to park, i dragged my bro and we ran all the way from the entrance to the other end of DBKL field. and the MC announced at that time for the aerobics ppl to come. and then i just assembled everyone together and got into place and started off aerobics.

we all enjoyed doing it. i think those who were following along also enjoyed it. Fr Clarence also was doing!! =) but the MC just forgot to tell everyone to stand and join us. sigh, if not it would’ve been more awesome! the whole thing lasted almost 10mins.. there was a whole bunch of small kids who came to stand with us and they were soo soo cute, but i had to make them stand facing us la. hehe. but it was great. You see, i did this aerobics before, last year for the inter-zone games. and you know la, these church ppl, once someone does it and it’s successful, they want the same person to do it again. i didn’t mind, but i had a stinging experience of a last min job. it was last min right till the end!!

and to think all that struggle and practice and all, just for a mere 9+ mins! what a pity la. but i was kinda sad, cos my dad, sister and stan weren’t there to see it..

Family day was fun actually =) i missed lunch, cos the food was all gone!! and i didn’t feel the hunger at all until after the whole thing finished. there was a lot of buzz and all, i got shot a lot with water guns. even had a bottle of water poured on me la. but the previous family day’s water fight was more fun. hehe. Fly FM also came. i got a car sticker. hehe. oh, and orange F&N drink. hahaha.

later when i got back, i went in search for food. it took me 4 shops before i found the shop that was open and had the food i wanted. and by that time, i actually almost fainted. i was alone summore, driving! and then when i got my food.. it was like wow, heaven on earth in my food. glorious food. =) hehehe..

oh ya, before going back, while waiting for stan in his car, i played my aerobics CD, and i was really impressed at my editing =) hehe. didnt know it sounded so good!! and also my combination of songs. hoohoo. was donkeyed out at the end of everything.. still feeling it la.

church is flooded. was flooded, it’s so muddy now. there was a snake there too! scary.. the klang river was soooooo high! hmm.. ok im done blabbering.
