So what is it so special with these lads that got me hooked? It started when I went out with a few close friends. I am the type that listens but rarely talks, so they prolly tried to get me into talking that they sneered at me with something about 1D which I can vaguely remember. When I got home, I was actually worked up by the teasing. Then, it hit me; they are a boyband. I love boybands! And there are not a lot of boybands in this era. Plus, I know a lot of their hit songs; catchy tunes I might add. So I took a listen to their 2nd album, Take Me Home, which is my favourite one so far. There is nothing on that album that will make me hit that skip button. The second day I had their album in my playlist, my sister heard One Thing blasting out loudly in my headphones and her response was, 'euw why is that song playing?'
And this came in when I felt really low. Have you ever felt you have been given a lifeline, only to be ripped off from it so suddenly that you got too disoriented? It kind of felt like that; and every song in that album really lifted me up. They sounded so cheerful, so happy; they remind me of my teenage days, how it felt to be a teenager again. It was really nice. The positive vibe was so radiant that it left no space for negativity. Over time, of course there will always be a favourite member in the band :P who cares they are 3 - 6 years younger than me? I do look like I'm in their age range, or maybe even younger than that ;)
Since then, I've been following their releases closely; their second movie will be out in October, only for a weekend. And get this, the movie will only be available on 11th and 12th of October, and I have a morning run on the 12th *I crey* and the tickets are already available now in most countries but not here :( and their 4th album will be out later this year, can't wait for that! They even gave a free teaser from 'Four'; Fireproof is like a foreshadow that they are heading down the Westlife lane but I'm not settling for anything just yet. Ah, roll on November! Oh yes, even 1D Day! They had this 7-hour live streaming last year, which in local time, started at 3 am. Yes, bloody hell, did I wake up and watch it HAHAHAH it was fun and the fandom is hoping for another run this year. Don't bet on it, girls. The guys are too busy, and I feel sorry for them sometimes. Yes, they get to live their dreams and all but I hope exhaustion will not be the cause of their downfall.
So to sum it up, the boys make me feel like a teenager again and they helped me to get over one of the crappiest moments in my life. Some people will deffo ask, why not just deal with your miseries head on, instead of running away from it? Sometimes, dear friend, you will never get the answers to everything. It's best to just replace it, rather than to rue over it for far too long. I made a promise; which it was my kryptonite and that promise together had sealed off my rights of sharing my horrible feelings to anyone at that point of time. So thank you, Niall, Liam, Louis, Harry and Zayn :)

Pertiwi Soup Kitchen Initiative
2 years ago, oh my, how time flies aye? Yes, a couple of years back, I joined the Pertiwi Soup Kitchen Initiative program as one of the representatives from the company. Well, mainly because I need to volunteer to get that one extra day off from work. But, it was a life-changing experience. The initiative is to feed homeless people in KL, so we were to distribute food and drinks and also some supplement tablets at a few spots around town. Some of those who came were actually the target group of people, and there were also some who were completely capable of buying those necessities at their own expense, and I felt that wasn't fair. But in the midst of the non-stop distribution, we couldn't really argue with these selfish people so we just went on to finish the job. Watching the needy people can actually make you count your blessings or wherever you are in life, crappy or heavenly; because it could have been worse for you.
We followed the distribution truck from one spot to another; there were 4 or 5 spots if my memory serves me right. *well my memory no longer works as efficiently as it once was* Following a truck on Friday night in KL would always spell out misery if you are not familiar with the streets and alleys and roads. In my book, it is always a bad idea to drive in KL, unless there is a need to wade in through the massive traffic. I prefer to take the train; no parking or traffic worries. But like I said, if you know the right highway and exit at the right time, you can actually beat the dreaded heavy traffic in and out of the city HEHEHE *oh wait, I'm starting to get wayyy off topic right now*
I remembered there was this pakcik, he came up to me for a chit chat. He asked me, you know, general questions. But when he started to ask specific questions, I shrugged it off quite brilliantly. Considering my bad communication skills, that was quite an achievement for me HAHAH by midnight, we wrapped it up and called it a night. One day of leave, check!

Liar Liar Pants on Fire
I would like to apologize over my promise for weekly posts! Hahahahah I truly am sorry. It's just that I have heaps of things piled in my mind that I can't find the rhythm to start putting some up. Yes, it does frustrate me all the time. Writing is what I do as some sort of a therapy. It does not necessarily mean you'd have to share those mind-bogglers, sometimes small things can sort your head even just for a little while. Oops, sorry for being too emotional this early in the morning. Okay, too many apologies can actually make people sick of me hahah hope everyone is doing okay ;) I can't promise updates on a constant basis, but actually, I do have some drafts already lined up in my queue. Just need a little bit of effort to continue blabbing, I guess :P

Teha G-Day
After a streak of hardships, she finally graduated HAHAHAHAHAHA I booked the day off from work, drove to the graduation; I'm not sure whether I told her that I was going to be there or not, but either way, I would have come :p She took me to a carnival or some sort, and it was food heaven! I got myself that Uncle Bob chicken, and a couple of drinks to get me by. Of course we would go around the clothing booths but as always, I'm not that interested HAHAHA
This is so frustrating, I don't have much to say cos these events were ages ago, and my mind has disengaged from remembering little details these days. Gah I hope I'll be alright

Naruto and Tamtam's B-Day
We celebrated the September babies at Strawberry Fields Cafe in PJ. I've been there myself for a few times already, and yet I still find myself undecided when trying to choose what to order. Each page of the menu has like 30 choices, and there are like 5 or 6 pages. And somehow I end up eating the same thing everytime; mac & cheese aharharhar
We bought the cake at A Slice of Heaven and it was not that heavenly to my taste buds. I took out the cake from the car after we had finished with our meal. Well, it wasn't much of a surprise really cos we celebrated every other member that year so it was really predictable. And that was the final birthday celebration we had, well as a group.
Yes, I would be updating my blog weekly after this. Thanks to my silent readers though. I was down for too long and I really didn't have the heart to blog anything anymore. Kind words from my friends got me into blogging again, plus my writing skills suck so bad that I feel the need to start mumbling again bwahahaha

I know I'm waayyy behind now, but it's never too late to put it up here y'know? :p and I even had to put it in a bundle aharharhar
These two were my classmates back in my matriculation days. They got engaged in Sept 2012 and got married 8 months later. Of course, I was the maid of honour. I had the chance to hear her chucking out 99% of things that till now I still don't get it. That is like an alien territory for me there. So I just be a good listener for her ramblings and wedding planning stories. Well, she wasn't that nervous till the moment she waited for the groom to arrive. And this happy couple is now expecting their first baby. Yeayyy, congrats! Psst~ dear baby, be a Liverpool supporter like your dad andCimal Lady P HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH comel kan, I know :p
We even had the chance for a mini F3P4 reunion at the wedding reception, cheapskate, we know :p You can check her all-new blog here. Dear Put, you can be an awesome studying mom. See, she's going to be a super mom cos she's taking her masters degree. All the best! :)
P/S: When are you going to decide for the house warming? I believe the house is already warm :P

Dila's Reception
After weeks of spamming each other's inbox, we managed to plan who were the drivers and their respective passengers; the meeting point and the wedding gift. I went to Mid for the gift, and alhamdulillah, it was on sale so I didn't have to rack my brain to pick another gift should the budget gets overrun.
For the trip, I was assigned to pick up the Klang/Shah Alam gang. My timing, as always, was a bit off, so I had to speed off to the meeting point at the Restoran Jejantas Sungai Buloh. Yeah, I was 15 mins early :p
We had some breakfast while waiting for the others. But the only car joining us there was Aza's. Nurul got to the wrong rest area so we had to catch up with her. So the next meeting point would be in Tapah. Yeah, we had a little reunion there :p
We reached Dila's around 1 pm with Nurul as our guide cos she's more familiar of Taiping than the rest of us. Had our lunch, snapped some pics, watched Mira belted out a song (didn't know what song though ehe). But I couldn't stay long so around 3.30, we made our move since the other 2 cars were gonna stay for the night.
It was a short meeting/reunion and what not, but we still had some fun. Some hoping that Dila's wedding kompang will rub on them kahkahkah

Take 5
A train of new updates in the past few days. Yeah, I kinda lost the passion to write anymore. In fact, I've lost interest in doing anything at all. I need someone to talk to openly about everything I'm feeling right now, but... ah well.
Before the train continues running, after the 5 latest Glee-pisodes, I've finally found my fav song of the lot: Paradise by the Dashboard Light. I watched the rerun from the first episode to the latest one the other day while waiting for the new episode this Friday. Love Finn's husky voice in it!
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord, I was crazed
And when the feeling came up on me like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
That I would love to the end of time
I swore I would love you to the end of time
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cos if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time, that's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time so I can end my time with you
I always bounce wherever and whenever I hear this song. At the very least I can put a pause to this horrible feeling for 3 mins tops :D The train will most prolly continue its journey next week. So in the mean time, toodles~

Pontian Part II
On Sept 9, I went to Pontian for the second time along with Aini, Hemie and Naruto. Hazique had to skip this one cos his brother was going to depart for India that day. This time, we had quite a packed schedule. We went to Ila's first. On the way back, we stopped by at Hemie's and Naruto's for Raya. The sky kept crying along the journey though. I'm no longer interested in hitting 160; I drive less than 80 these days, and that annoyed some people but hey, at the very least, I don't tailgate anymore :p Anyhoo, somewhere in Seremban, a car spun and stalled in the middle lane. Luckily, no one was injured cos the car was upside down. Prolly cos of the slippery road. Alhamdulillah, we had a safe journey :D
Thanks for the invitation and the trouble to have us and serve us :D Sorry, no pics. I have no idea where Naruto keeps them :p

Raya 1433
This year's Raya was quite bizarre cos the tailor forgot to sew up our bajus, so Mak had a panic attack and bought a red set for us. It felt like Chinese New Year, yaw! hahah
Then, two weeks later, half of the 8 made it to my house. And the next weekend, 6 of the PDB25 kids also came over to my house.
Gave away some duit raya this year to the parents, siblings, cousins, and also Atuk Nenek ehe

Mak's Present
'Korang ni, kumpul la duit, belikan netbook sebijik untuk Mak', she kept saying this for a few times in the past year. So, I contemplated to ask the other 2 siblings to hand me at most RM100 each HAHAH and I'll cover the rest.
I bought it a day after her birthday though. After (late) Pajai's wedding, I went to the office for a while and withdrawn some money. Picked up Fariz at his house and met Aini and Naruto at Lowyat. So we went around and finally, I chose the one in the first shop. Strange that whenever I went for a quick survey, I would most probably end up at the first shop. And by some chance, Naruto bought a new phone for himself, much to Aini's dismay. We blame Fariz for the irresistible temptation HAHAH
Ayah called me up to ask whether I wanted to come along to Achik's house. I haven't met her since March last year hmm anyway, I said no and drove those kids back to their house. I took the wrong exit, to Maju Expressway we went. I thought, 'ah that's okay, still can reach Fariz's house'. Since the guy himself wasn't familiar with MEX, so we ended up missing the exit and found ourselves on the way to Putrajaya. So we stopped to pray and continued finding our way out of Putrajaya. I was getting frustrated and I missed another exit. We were so hungry, and so we decided to have 'mi tarik' for dinner. I went around Kajang, got cramps on my right foot halfway through, and finally, we made it! HAHAH 2 hours just to get out of there =__=
Dropped Aini and Naruto home on the way home, it's quite convenient to live the furthest among the lot cos they don't have to worry about me sending them home. Reached home, and started to draft out the clues and where to hide them. We always have this mini treasure hunt just for the fun of torturing the birthday person HAHAH it was almost 10 pm, it's almost Mak's bedtime. I went up to her bed, had a little chat. Then, I handed a piece of paper to her. She understood and grumbled that she wanted to sleep. She went to hunt for it anyway eheheh I told her that she would surely no longer feel sleepy after she found the present. Yes, I was right :p

Seeing is Believing Treasure Hunt
2 weeks after Jengka/Bukit Tinggi trip, once again I drove up to Pahang again. This time, for an event under our office, a treasure hunt I joined with Ecah, Mira and DD. We were among the last teams to arrive at the meeting point at TPM. It was like 7+ in the morning for God's sake.
And so, Team 12 started the journey. It was quite confusing at the first three tulips but since I'm pretty good with the roads and directions, I saw some other teams taking Genting exit but I didn't follow them cos I know they were wrong muehehehe DD took Bell's place cos she wasn't feeling well. So he was quite confused of his role as a navigator hahah
We were directed to Bentong exit, hunted for the answers to the questions and forgot which exit we took back to the highway. Halfway through the race, we needed to take on 2 mini games to score extra points as the games would be opened till 1 pm. We had to guess what and how many of them in a sack. So, me and Ecah counted on each end. We had missed a few though. Another mini games was that we had to hop on one leg and pick up a trash one by one. It was quite a funny sight though, especially Mira cos she was so small HAHAH Anyway, at the last stop, straightaway we stopped to buy snacks/drinks for another set of questions. The bought items would be donated to a foundation for people with sight problems in Kuantan (the name escaped me, sorry). We were given 9 hours to finish the race. We arrived at Swiss Garden with a few mins left on the clock heheh
Team 12 didn't win though but we had a good time and a nice experience. Next year, deffo will join another treasure hunt, if there's any heheh

Jengka/Bukit Tinggi
Wassup, people? Sorry for being on a hiatus for too long. It's just that I haven't been feeling like typing much lately, lost motivation and all, but ah well. Here goes:
June 16th, I drove up to Pahang for the first time, with Teha as a company to Matnor's wedding reception. Turned out I was the only one from my class to make it there, so called on behalf of the others *mehhh* hahah~
Since it was the first time I ever set foot in Jengka, so finding the venue was super bizarre. I didn't have any idea where to go, blindly going further and finally, found a stall to ask for directions. They told us that we should look out for a factory. But the factory was surrounded by tall trees that we missed it and we were already miles ahead. We found another factory but we went around the place but couldn't find a way to get there. Stopped and asked for directions again, we were told that we had missed it. Finally, we found the correct factory and were at dismay. Anyhoo, we went round and round for there were so many divisions (dunno what else to call them). We stopped again to ask directions at a small convenient shop, the dude knows the exact location. He showed the way and there we were finally :D
On the way back, my company was sound asleep and I pulled a 160 for a few mins. Saw the exit to Bukit Tinggi and dived straight in. Teha was so happy cos she always wanted to go there. We snapped some pics and enjoyed the scene. Strange it wasn't that cold as in Genting. I blame the haze in KL. Heh
Around 8pm, Mak asked if I wanted to come along to Hulu Langat. I thought, why not I stop by. So I brought Teha there. It was durian season. I'm not much of a durian fan but that night, I was on a roll. Usually, I would have one or two cos I can't stand the heat. Prolly cos we were deep in forest in a cold night, so eating durians wouldn't be much of a problem :p later, we helped Kak Eija with (late) Pajai's wedding invitation card to correct the printed date. It was a long and fun day/night :D

Nabilah's G-Day
It was a hectic day for me. Nabilah's g-day in the morning, and I shot straight to Sepang and Seremban for 2 wedding receptions afterwards. Somehow, it reminds me of my own g-day; it was fun! The most fun part was my parents gave me the green light to go out and have some fun with friends even though it was already 7 in the evening muehehehe and so did my sister on this day. We had our relatives from north in town and so, they joined us on that day. But as usual, only Mammy and Daddy are allowed to enter HAHAH we waited for 30 mins outside, snapped some pics. Luckily, it was a cloudy afternoon.
Vietnam
I took 2 days off for this trip. Left Malaysia on Thursday evening and came back 2 minutes before Monday :O it wasn't tiring but at the thought of getting back to work from a vacation was somewhat overwhelming HAHAH
Didn't do much on the first day; the tourist guide brought us to the nearest market, Ben-Thanh. It was within the walking distance from the hotel. While I was crossing the road, I saw a familiar skyscraper. Holeyyy, it was Menara TM! HAHAHA I tried to snap a pic of it but 9 million motorcycles stopped me from doing so. I got to snap it a few days later though :p even my 8-year-old brother can also see the similarity!
On second day, we went to the War Museum. They showcased of the brutality of the American army; the images were gruesome! We also visited the Cu Chi tunnel; they used to have tunnels underground during the war. Their survival skills were amazing!
The next day, we went to the Mekong lake. I bought some candy and snacks there. I even had the chance to hold a snake. By golly, it was so heavy, cold and slimy ahaha too bad Mak didn't see it, she would've gone mental! HAHAHA
On Sunday, we did the final shopping the whole day. The tourist guide mocked us by asking 'beg dah bercucu-cicit ke?' kahkahkah yes, we did buy a new baggage to carry those souvies back home. Luckily, we stayed within the baggage limit though.
It felt like going on a vacation in Malaysia cos Malaysians were everywhere! The local can also speak Malay; basic words in trading/selling. 'Murah, murah'. Going to shop there was like going for a battle heheh I bought some fridge magnet, bags, shirts, and baju kurung materials for my friends. I also bought some baju kurung materials and a bag for myself.
And since this trip, I've gone broke HAHAHA next! P/S: will stick a pic here later
Didn't do much on the first day; the tourist guide brought us to the nearest market, Ben-Thanh. It was within the walking distance from the hotel. While I was crossing the road, I saw a familiar skyscraper. Holeyyy, it was Menara TM! HAHAHA I tried to snap a pic of it but 9 million motorcycles stopped me from doing so. I got to snap it a few days later though :p even my 8-year-old brother can also see the similarity!
On second day, we went to the War Museum. They showcased of the brutality of the American army; the images were gruesome! We also visited the Cu Chi tunnel; they used to have tunnels underground during the war. Their survival skills were amazing!
The next day, we went to the Mekong lake. I bought some candy and snacks there. I even had the chance to hold a snake. By golly, it was so heavy, cold and slimy ahaha too bad Mak didn't see it, she would've gone mental! HAHAHA
On Sunday, we did the final shopping the whole day. The tourist guide mocked us by asking 'beg dah bercucu-cicit ke?' kahkahkah yes, we did buy a new baggage to carry those souvies back home. Luckily, we stayed within the baggage limit though.
It felt like going on a vacation in Malaysia cos Malaysians were everywhere! The local can also speak Malay; basic words in trading/selling. 'Murah, murah'. Going to shop there was like going for a battle heheh I bought some fridge magnet, bags, shirts, and baju kurung materials for my friends. I also bought some baju kurung materials and a bag for myself.

Fun Run 2012
In February, an email was broadcasted for Fun Run registration. Since last year I didn't get to run cos I missed the flag-off, this year is a must-enter for me HAHAH being a supportive employee and all :p Anyway, my colleagues and I signed up for it on the spot.
And so, the training started for me in April. Every evening on weekends, I would go for a round the lake whenever I had the chance. Sometimes, I went alone but most of the time, I brought along my sister, cousins and/or Teha. Strange thing, I would only lasted for a lap. A lap around the lake is only 1km+. The race was a 5km race, how could I last if I couldn't finish another lap? And the race was on the next weekend.
A few days before the race, we went to collect the race kit. The collection time started at 12pm but at 11.45, my colleagues and I already lined up for the collection. By 12, the queues had already lined up past the pantry door. Luckily, we went there early.
The night before the race day, I went out with the retards to what could be the most embarrassing thing; organising my own birthday party, along with Aini and Ila's, of course T___T I had a sleepover at Bell's house, so I reached her apartment when it was 15 to 1 in the morning. That was kind of a crazy thing to do; lack of sleep before race but what the hey :p
Woke up around 5.15 cos Bell couldn't stand my alarm bells *yeah, I set 2 alarms like always :p*, around 5.45, I was already geared up for the race wahahaha we reached Putrajaya around 7.30 but we didn't see any signs pointing to the race starting line. So we had to go round and round to find it. Luckily, we found the line at 8. The flag-off was at 8.15, so I didn't miss it this year :p
I pulled away from my colleagues and went ahead with Naily. We even got a shot in the gallery u ols~
Nampak pipi tembam tengah berlari2 HAHAH
We finished the race for almost an hour. I couldn't believe that I could run till the finish line as I thought I didn't have enough preparation for the race. But the most important thing is we finished the race wahahahah there were a lot of mini games but I didn't take part in any. Ecah and I wanted to try the bungee thingy but by the time we went to sign up, the queue would start after 1 pm. Ah well
Overall, it was a nice experience. I didn't have my breakfast before the race but I could run without much trouble. We had coupons for food and drinks but I didn't use them much. I wasn't hungry at that time, just thirsty. Maybe cos I had a wedding reception to attend later that evening, so I thought I could just eat there.
We stayed for the lucky draw but as expected, we weren't lucky enough :p The theme for the race was Run For A Reason; my reason was to run cos I missed it last year. How about yours? Deffo will participate again next year :D

3 Stooges kau panggil kitorang =__=
Early in May, I contemplated a plan with Hazique for a birtday celebration for Aini and Ila. Since I pretty much already got the hang of planning these retards' birthdays before, I already had it planned on how to break the news to both of them. But Ila accidentally found out about it. Luckily, Hazique explained to her that it was for Aini HAHAH so the secret was still safe. I told Aini that we were going to celebrate Ila's birthday. She was quite pissed asked what about me. I couldn't remember what I replied to her though cos it was a lie :p
So after work one night, initially I planned to search for their presents at One Utama. But the exit was blocked that I couldn't take the turn. I thought that we were good, we just have to take u-turn at my old office area. But the roads there have changed the last time we've been there that we missed the exit =__= I knew there is a toll ahead and God knows where to take u-turn past the toll. Then, we missed another exit!!!! That time, I just drove straight ahead and thought maybe we could go and search in Wangsa Maju *that far =__=* then, Fariz gave a suggestion to go to Uptown what-was-its-name-again. And Google Maps fooled us both for the second time. The place which supposed to be the location of the Uptown, had nothing. So I just drove along the road, thinking 'where on earth am I', and we found Festival City. So we hunted for the presents and had our dinner there.
For the Bagan Lalang trip, I took the presents up to my room cos I knew for sure Aini would saw them. I was right though heheh I made a reservation at That Little Gerai for 10 of us (8 made it there). Presents, check. Venue, check. What about a cake? I asked Hazique, he said no need to buy a cake. The food there would be enough. He kept on insisting that there would be no need of buying a cake, so I decided to drop the subject.
That night, Naruto told Aini that he couldn't make it t the celebration. I thought he was joking around with her but he wasn't. So, I started my engine and sped off to Shah Alam to fetch him and send him to Hazique's house. This would avoid messing up the surprise muehehehe *sorry sebab tipu Aini ehe* she was busy with her work and I told her that I wanted to go to Amcorp Mall :p After sending Naruto off, I went back to the office for Aini. The traffic was bad towards Cheras that I thought of taking the Kepong Highway. Big mistake. It was so far! Around 1030, we reached the venue even though we got a bit lost. Aini wasn't used to navigate using Google and I'm not familiar of that area pfftt~
The others were there by that time we arrived. We browsed through the menu and placed our order. While we were eating, I kept giving Hazique the signal to pop up the surprise. Then, I heard him talking to Fariz very awkwardly *I have known these two for years, I can tell :p* The guys wanted to go to the car. In my head, 'that is not part of a plan. What are the guys playing at?' but I kept on eating anyway. Then, they appeared with a cake with 3 names on it HAHAH while I was busy planning for Aini and Ila; Fariz, Hazique and Hemie planned another surprise behind my back HAHAH no wonder Fariz kept mentioning about me buying a present for myself. The day before we went to buy cards for the girls, and I swore I saw him paying for something but I minded my own business that I didn't bother to ask him anything about it. But he denied that was for me anyway, so who knows? The guys kept teasing me, saying I'm a loser for planning my own birthday celebration =__= I got 2 presents from them; a shirt and a shawl. And of course, a card :p Feel like hugging all of them at that time *ya, don't mind hugging the guys also :p*

At midnight, Bell texted me, asking where I was. I was supposed to sleep over at her house for the Fun Run on the next day. So I sent Aini and Naruto home first, and around 1245, I reached Bell's apartment. I forgot to ask her which one is her block. That time, she, Khai and Huda were already dozed off. I kept calling them but no answer. Luckily, Bell woke up and answered the call heheh
Next, Fun Run!

Mini Reunion
Was quite pissed at this but what the hey, we've tried :D It was supposed to be a reunion for 20+ people but only 5 showed up for the event. So we did the same thing like we did in PD for this reunion. Syikin brought along her family and boyfriend for that trip too.
Bagan Lalang Beach is quite far from the main roads that we had to delve in deep to unknown roads to get there. With the help of 2 navigators and Google Maps at the back, we managed to reach there around 11 pm.
Aini remembered that Hemie had longer for flying a kite. So we bought a kite to get Hemie feeling envious of us HAHAH we let Fariz and Naruto fly it. As the kite was flying high on the sky, suddenly the string broke and we lost the kite. Funny, after we bought it, Aini said maybe we could keep the kite for another trip. Ah well hahahah
I didn't take a dip in the sea that much though. I have this red alert that stopped me from diving. Besides, the beach didn't have the oomph like it was in PD :D We had our lunch at 3 pm at one of the stalls nearby. The hell, it was so expensive! *Ramai Seafood lagi murah u ols~* around 4, we started our journey home. A few minutes into the journey, the boys already dozed off at the back. Strange as we didn't play around much like we did in PD. My theory was prolly we all didn't sleep much the day before muehehehe

PD Trip
Last Saturday(21/4/2012), we went on a trip to PD! Finally, I got to ride on the banana boat again! :D
The idea came up 4 days before the trip. While Fariz and I were walking towards the train station, he suddenly proposed the idea of having a trip there. And I have an allergy of hearing the PD word cos I wanted to ride on the banana boat so bad! It is so addictive and I feel like riding it again :p
And so, on Thursday, Aini, Fariz and I went to the groceries to buy food for the trip. Well, there would only be like 5 of us so we didn't have to buy much. Hemie would prepare spaghetti while I made some cheese tarts for the trip.
Then, came Saturday. Apparently, Ayah forgot that I was going for the trip on that day. He said that I need to sign some papers for my car. That time, my heart was like patah seribu! Why now ~,~ but I kept calm and asked what time I should go for the agreement signing. He said around 10. Oh no! We planned to go at 9. At 6 something in the morning, I called the driver to explain the situation and we shifted the time to go right after I have sign those papers.
The seller was 30 - 40 minutes late! I was restless, but kept calm in front of Ayah hahah when the seller came, we saw him wearing a Man Utd shirt that Ayah thought to give him a good grief on that but he let it pass =__= anyway, papers signed and my car was on my way! But first things first, PD! Yeayyyy!
We went for lunch first before taking a dip in the sea. Then, the clouds were crying down on Earth. That didn't dampen our spirits bwahahaha *semangat habis* Sadly, what Fariz and I ordered went amiss by the cook that we cancelled our order. We went to pray after lunch and got changed. We put all of our valuables in a bag and one of us took turns to carry the bag. My phone screen got some pretty bad scratches cos of the friction with the beach sand =__= and now the bag is like half purple, half white cos of the salty water hahah I was told to wash it off but I thought it was just salty water. Besides, let it be a reminder of that day :p
We tried to persuade Aini to get on that boat but since she's hydrophobic, so she stayed by the beach with the bag. We went on board with 2 crazy tourists. They kept on screaming something tangible at times, all the time *that's quite confusing*. Anyway, before the boat took the sharp turn, they already dived into the sea. But we still stayed put on the boat. The turn wasn't as sharp as the first time I rode it. I pity Hemie though, cos she was struggling to get to the shore. I helped her out, but at that time I felt there were like 3 hands holding on to my left arm. It was creepy but I said nothing. *kata orang, jangan tegur*
After all that, the hungry tummy started drumming; we opened the packed food and dug in. At that time, I felt like cracking the joke 'Didn't your mom tell you not to swim after you eat?' but I don't think they'll get the joke heheh that was a line from It Takes Two movie *my family's fav* While I was sitting with my back towards the beach, I saw a cat on a plank scratching on the end of it. Came 2 kids, jumping up and down on the other end of the plank. The cat's claws were still stuck on the plank that it went jumping with the plank. It was such a funny sight HAHAH
We cleaned up ourselves, and packed our things, ready to go home. I reached home around 9 pm. Luckily, my house was filled with my aunties and cousins that time. So I didn't get any stick for that :p
It was fun! Can we do it again? :p

Maroon 7 Little Reunion
I saw Annys' tweet asking for anyone to hang out with her. So I told her I could go if she wants to hang after work. She said it's better to go on Friday night in that case. And so, we agreed on meeting on Friday but we hadn't decided on the date yet. Then I noticed, her birthday was on Saturday. So if I were to bring the other Maroon girls as a surprise, it would be nice. So I sent an FB message to the other girls. So after some discussions with the girls, I got back to Annys for the date for us to meet up.
Initially, two of them could join us. But Jijah had gastric and she couldn't make it to the reunion. So I waited for Azim at the LRT station cos the area is very unfamiliar to her. We were supposed to meet at 8 but since Azim had some work to do, she got off the train quite late. Annys came on time that I had to stall her by saying that I had some work to finish off first but as always, that was a lie :))
I thought, before Annys screamed when she saw I was not alone, better to put her on alert. So I sent a text to her saying 'surprise!'. She was quite puzzled at first cos she didn't see me. And I didn't think of asking her what her plate number is before meeting HAHAH so I was a bit lost in the rain. Luckily, she saw us and off we went to Murni.
It was a birthday celebration and that was the first time I met Azim after we finished off our journey in matriculation. So I had the bills on me that day :D We had a little chat, and called the others to confirm whether they are still using the number or not and just to make them jealous HAHAH the girls wanted to go on a holiday together before Jijah ties the knot this June. I'm not sure of that hmmm
