Confessions of a Teenage Blogger

Gentle readers, This Author has a few things to announce. Firstly, she now has a new blog, 'Confessions of a Teenage Blogger' which you can visit at www.teenageramblingsofthemodernmind.blogspot.com. Secondly, This Author might not blog so frequently anymore as, of course, she has a new blog to attend to. Cheerio!

MYOB.

To you people who are pondering the topic, yes, this is also another worrying disaster going on in the world. Nosy people. What has become of Earth and all its heavenly beings? Apparently, they turned into hungry-for-more-gossip minions. In This Author's opinion, people need to mind their own business. Seriously, is gossip/kepo-ness not a little immature? It's other people's lives, is it not? Does it seem so very important to know everything that's going on until one would go to such measures as to bug into other people's lives? This Author truly despises people like them. So, what to do?

Termites!

Termites! This Author completely detest them! Yes, gentle reader, This Author has indeed seen one not so long ago. Horrible. Disgusting. Ew. It was feeding on a wooden plank and went like cht.... cht cht cht... By God, it made This Author squirm just by looking! Yes again, gentle reader, This Author does not blame you if you think she has indeed lost her mind - sometimes people need to chill, okay? Have a nice weekend.

Dear God

Though I'm in no position
To question God's ways
I have more than one question
Most I dare not say

Dear God,
Why do people suffer
Pain all over their faces
What happened to laughter?
Has it been forgotten over the ages?

Dear God,
As hard as I try
Things never turn out right
All the more the urge to cry
Knowing the future isn't indeed bright

Dear God,
Pray tell
Why do I feel so sad?
Locked up in a cell
Feeling like a cad

Dear God,
Is the world ending?
Is all hope lost?

Do The Twist!

Yes, despite the upcoming examinations, This Author refuses to become an ever-annoying uptight female dog who literally barks at people. Never. So, in This Author's personal opinion, we have to de-stress and relax to avoid being another potential psycho/murderer. Solution: Do The Twist! Yup, you heard right - This Author's been dancing to Chubby Checker's 'The Twist'. It's real easy. Just follow This Author's simple guide to doing the Twist!

Let The Fun Begin!

First, go get Chubby Checker's 'The Twist'


Now, stand awkwardly



Then, widen your legs at a reasonable distance and move awkwardly


For the grand finale, POSE awkwardly!

And there you have it! The perfect twist! Okay, I know the whole thing was just a waste of your time and all, but come to think of it, what DID you expect?

PS: This is NOT how This Author does the 'twist'. Honest!

A Whole New Experience

Yes, people - my blog isn't dead. Yet. Well, I've finally got some exciting news for you - This Author has just experienced her very first accident accident (if you get what I mean). No, it wasn't a near-death experience or nothing. Just a small lump on This Author's cheekbone. Unfortunately, the arse who had hit us was nothing but an 'ah long'. He was skinny, arrogant, smug and downright fugly. There my aunt was, trying to discuss what actually went wrong with Mr Scrawny Knees throwing accusations at her like some maniac. I bet his billabong shorts were from the 'chee cheong kai' - Malaysia's chinatown to you. Oh well, I guess I'm done babbling here - I'll go bother someone else now. I'll be back! (For all you noobs, that phrase was taken from 'The Terminator')

Ms Tai, THIS is amazing!

Something I'd Like To See

Hey, Ms T! I know - you've finally found a place among the teachers This Author despises. Hopefully, you won't penalize my marks for the coming exams. Remember the time you showed us those (so-called) A-M-A-Z-I-N-G magic tricks! By the way, my mom thinks it doesn't make sense and my brother thought I was talking about history and swore he would never like it. Okay, this is not ENTIRELY true - I didn't bother telling anyone about it. Well guess what? I have a great idea! Why don't you try this UBERLY AWESOME trick - disappear (and never come back) !

I.AM.EXHAUSTED.SPEECHLESS.

No, This Author is telling yet another lie - how nice. This Author wonders if her sins would go unnoticed forever. On second thought, there's simply NO WAY that could ever happen. And yes, if you're wondering, This Author kinda feels absurdly random lately (another lie). Okay, let's discuss the budget for 2009. I learned one thing. If you're a Malaysian smoker, PAY ATTENTION. The price of cigarettes have gone up by 80 sen! Is that not amazing - you get to save........so much? if you quit now! Happy Ending. And that wraps up today's crap - Have a lovely day or, as my old tour guide in Egypt would say, "I wish for all of you, a lovely day!"

PS: Remember, when you say it, it all comes out in one breath - like "Iwishforallofyoualovelyday!"

A Little Too Much Info?

Okay, This Author feels kinda confessy today. Why? Only the Almighty knows. Before you read this - WARNING: Contains This Author's Worst Fear, Not For The Faint-hearted. Well, now that we've cleared that out, This Author shall begin spilling. You know how you're afraid of something, just so terribly afraid but you don't know why? Well, maybe not but This Author has one Great fear - the fear that when doing her business, a monstrous hand/face appears at the bottom of the toilet bowl. I know, I know - WTF. Before I humiliate myself anymore, This Author is officially saying toodles. For Now.

Emo quotes on Messenger

When This Author signs in on msn, the first thing she sees is "Miss you like crazy" or "Will love you whether you know it or not" or worse, "I see you but you don't see me". What is up with the emos of today? In This Author's opinion, this makes them seem like some really sad case desperado. Honestly, This Author has nothing to say - no experience. But if you like that special someone, you don't have to tell the whole world, do you? Feel free to have your say - This Author needs some lessons on emos.

This Author Is Has A New Resolution!

This Author is feeling generous lately - I know, I know, this is RARE! In other words, This Author feels too rich (Yea, right!). Well, that is partially true. That's why This Author feels like donating - so come join me in my good deed! As they say Good Karma.. wait, what DO they say? Let's put it this way - What Goes Around Comes Around. I don't know if I'll get any richer, but it's worth a shot!


PS: This Author was just kidding about getting richer (though I know it's obvious).

Mika's Back!

Yup, you heard right, all right! Mika is BACK (though it seems he never left). He's currently working on his SECOND album - woohoo! Oh, and to all those - no words can describe you - who think This Author is talking about some Jap singer, You are SO wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. This Author has taken her ever-so-precious time to talk about the ONE and ONLY Mika aka Michael Holbrook Penniman! Again, This Author has nothing to say to the ones who gawk at the mention of his name thinking 'am I supposed to know this dude?' or maybe even a dumbfounded 'huh?'. Anyways, go check out some of his songs that This Author absolutely L-O-V-E-S. But This Author still prefers "Ring Ring" above the rest. Happy listening!

A little something to say

Hey, all you earthlings! I'm so sorry you had to read the previous post. I'm sure you'd never have thought I could even BE like that. However, I won't take the post down, not now, at the very least. I just couldn't contain myself. Emotions rushed through my head like a whirlwind - I really had to let it out. Sorry!

1 Way To Lose A Bet (Easily)

You know when you do unreasonable and stupid things sometimes? Yea, I was thinking about those moments and came across memory of a time when I made a bet. A really, really stupid one, in fact - I bet that I wouldn't cry. What was so hard about not crying? Well, the difficult part was, I couldn't cry while we watched the SAPPIEST movies in history. Knowing me, I DEFINITELY lost the bet. At least we weren't betting on money - we were doing it just for the fun of it. Still, I can't believe I made that bet!

DRINKING DON'T MAKE YOU FEEL NO BETTER!

That would mean "Drinking Doesn't Make You Feel Better!" in a slang I learned from Roots. But you be the judge, I rather like the acquired taste (just a little). I'm just posting this because I made a little.... short poem? Yes, it's what I do during exams (I quite possibly have an album!). Here goes nothing!
I've seen people cheer,
I've seen people jeer,
But people who drink beer,
Only seem to sneer.

Breaking Dawn Is Here!

Okay, by now you probably already know that I LOVE to read. Call me a nerd, call me a geek (though the term usually applies to techy people) but I won't deny that READING'S MY THING. Of course, I shall have you know that I don't just read ANY book - I read romance and chic-lit. Well, most of the time. Okay, enough about me. I was SUPPOSED to post this as to show my many thanks to Aiman A. Marzio (she's probably gonna kill me for using her full name but, what the heck XD). Whatever for, you ask? Well, she was kind enough to borrow me the latest book in the Twilight series - BRAKING DAWN! Oh, and I'm supposed to apologize too cause I told her the ending of the third book - Bella and Edward get engaged! (seriously, when she said "What?" I thought she meant "What happens in the end?") Oh well, I've probably ruined the book for you guys too. Sorry!

Indy's Back (and now with a whip!)

Being a VERY big fan on Indiana Jones, I DETEST people who call him Indian Jones, Indyana Jones etc. Trust me, there ARE people who call him that! Like... HOW COULD THEY! Right? Well, here's a little lesson - it's EEN-DEE-YEA-NA JONES, people! Anyways, I never got to tell you what I really wanted to say. I was going to thank Cheah Yivon (that's right, CHEE-YAH YEE-VON) for the Indiana Jones Action Figure! I really, really love it! I couldn't thank you enough. Okay, I guess my Oscar winning speech is done. D-O-N-E.


And then came INDIANA JONES!

Ps: THANKS AGAIN!

Julia Quinn Rocks My Socks!! XD

As lame as that might sound, IT'S TRUE! Here I am, helping Julia Quinn promote her books to my faithful readers *self-indulgent moment* even though I know there ain't many of you. Back to the topic, I recommend you read her Bridgerton series - They're soooo sweet! And I read all eight of the books - no regrets. So go check out the books, kay? Seriously, if you're a romantic, you'll enjoy her books.



PS: These are the old covers. The new ones are much, MUCH better. Enjoy!

Let Me Introduce You To....

The No-Techs. The next generation of Low-Techs. What on Earth am I blabbering about? Technically - my dad and sister. He who knows nothing of computers and she who can't seem to figure out Facebook. Aren't they sad, the two of them? My dad can go on and on and on about football but when it comes to skype - "What's Skynet?". Yes, I'm sorry to say, but my dad is an official caveman. My sister? She's not that bad but when it comes to Facebook, or Limewire, or basically anything that's 'in', she's a goner. So I don't really know if I should consider her a cavewoman but I'd do anything to keep her silent instead of "Steph!!!!! How do I add an application on Facebook?"

Mamma Mia!

Have you heard? Mamma Mia's out! And truly, all you can say about it is.....well...... Mamma Mia! No, not because everyone's talking bout it, not because the movie's great, but only because of the cast! Like, c'mon - who would've ever thought Pierce Brosnan could ever sing? Or Colin Firth, for that matter. And to top it off - ABBA SONGS! Truly... MAMMA MIA!

Bob Marley + Heath Ledger?

Of course, as your natural first reaction, you'd definitely be like... "What on EARTH is that supposed to mean?!" or, if you're like every other teen... "Who the heck is Bob Marley? Why is he compared to SWEET, SWEET Heath?". Either way, they basically have two things in common, maybe three. 1) They're Fabulously Famous! and 2) They are the two people in which people really look up to (including me - I LOVE THEM!) and last but not least (and not very pleasant either), 3) they're no longer with us. This post is basically dedicated to them - YOU WILL
ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED! And, of course, may you rest in peace.













From left to right:
Bob Marley , Heath Ledger

Exams, exams, exams - Need I say more?

The title says it all, do you not think so? Well, for those of you that are THAT blurr, let me explain. As most of you are aware, THE SECOND-MID SEMESTER EXAMS ARE HERE! Nope, there ain't nothing else to exams but intense study sessions - and of course, loads of FOOD. If you didn't know this earlier, I eat when I study. To be honest, that was actually a little white lie... I eat 24/7. And no, I do not feel ashamed of myself - EVERYONE knows that NO ONE loves food as much as I do. So why hide it? Speaking of food, I hear the food downstairs calling out to me. Just think of the sambal my maid prepared..... HEAVEN! Oh well, there's no use boring you to death with my eating habits - I'm having an early dinner today!

Generation of Today!

We ALL know our world is developing rapidly, yes it is. However, did you come to know that children's minds are developing just as fast? Yes - they are getting greedier, nastier, and even their poo is smellier ( do NOT ask how i came across that fact). Most of all, these aggressive little twerps are CREATIVE - they always manage to get their way. Here's a photo of my baby cousin aka "The Terror Twerp". I know he looks really REALLY cute but unfortunately, he should have came with a warning sign saying "BEWARE: CHAOS IS ON IT'S WAY!" on that tiny forehead of his.
Look at that face! Eyebrows pulled together into a menacing get-your-hands-off-my-present look. As horrible as he can be, he IS still cute, isn't he? Well, as I said, the secret to getting what you want is to look cute (which explains why adults don't always get what they want). That's all for today on the "Generation of Today!"

Walls... man's greatest invention

Ever heard of the 'wall'? Made out of slabs of cement and blocks of bricks, walls are simply.... FASCINATING, do you not agree? Mankind's greatest invention, in fact. Well, here i shall prove my point.

Now... GO STARE AT YOUR WALL!

Having A Bad Day?

Having a bad day? Well, I've got a little treat for you...


Now you have yourself a good day, you hear me?

Can I Like.... Die Right Now?

OHMIGOD! Ms P is SOOOO gonna kill me. If you're wondering who Ms P might be, I'll have you know that she's my Geography teacher. Why a post about her? Because 40% of my stress comes from HER! Yes, as sweet and kind as she may seem, Ms P can be TERRIFYING! Oh well, i might as well commit suicide right here, right now. Wanna know what i did that was SOOO bad? Well, I spilt water on my notebook.... I know.... *GASP!!*, right? Okay, okay.... HAPPY THOUGHTS, HAPPY THOUGHTS.. Does God hate me that much? Well, no offense, Mr Almighty, but please tell me that the soaking notebook is not mine.... Who knows? One day i might just end up in a psych ward. Ahh.... Sounds like peace and relaxation...

The KP craze mania!!

What am i blabbering about? The Click Five's Kyle Patrick is hot on the market! If you ask anyone (excluding guys, parents, other adults and the elderly) who went about the recent Click Five concert in Genting, they'd go like "Kyle Patrick!!!" or, "He was So HOT!!!" or maybe " He's SO MINE!!" and other don't-make-me-puke lines. Don't worry, I don't have the hots for him... never did, never will. Thank god there's Alice - Alice the Music Lover, Alice the i-can't-live-without-music lady etc. She, thank god, is one of the few earthlings that does NOT like Kyle Patrick. She's like... "Who's KP? Kim Possible?" That had me laughing like a retard..

Let's compare, shall we?














See the similarity between the two? Now I can understand how Alice could have mixed it up (NOTE: detect the sarcasm in my voice). Oh well, I guess that's about it... but what do i have against KP? You know how they say that hate turns to love... Maybe i DO like him.. On the second thought, NO WAY!!

"New Lane" by Steph and Dan Goes Double Platinum!!

In Penang, there is only two things you can do - EAT or go JALAN-JALAN. Well, walking is never a good option and eating is no better. So, my cousin, Dan, and I, Steph, decided to be different and tried something new - we made a song. " New Lane" is our album(Penang Hawkers) debut - a song about a hawker stall in Penang. We wanted to give our moral support to the hawker to keep on selling hawker food!!! We love you, New Lane!!

Indiana Rocked The Cinema - TWICE!!

As most of you probably know, i'm an indiana jones fanatic! And i've been waiting for the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to premiere for a year! Amazing that my patience lasted so long. Well, i've finally watched the movie! And boy, was it good. It was soooo good that i decided to watch it again. My parents, being very understanding, allowed me to watch it twice - on the big screen (cinema, for some) !! Still waiting for the third time!!! However, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my parents for being so patient and understanding!!! Thanks mom! Thanks dad!

read ONLY if you're as depressed as me

Hey people, i know i have not updated my blog since ages ago, forgive me. Well, the truth is.... i don't really know what the truth is, but i know i feel very down, lately. I've come to realize that life for me can be quite hard to be satisfied with. People change. Friends aren't really what they were before. The thing is, i sort of feel frustrated with the fact that life isn't perfect, after all. I've got nothing else to top it off with and therefore, i shall retire to my bed now... PS: i hope i haven't depressed you in any way..

Bali...

I thought I'd share a little bit more about my holiday in Bali last March before I go to bed. Well, we went there for my parent's 20th anniversary. To be honest, though, the most interesting part of the trip was the water sports. I loved the snorkeling and the banana boat - of course! I loved the feeling of being in the ocean so blue, so wide. The fishes freaked me out, though.


An Exhausting Day, I'd Say


Eh, you know arh, today arh, so damn tiring you know or not? Translation: Did you know that today was utterly exhausting? Well, I'll tell you why. 1) Woke up at eight for nothing, thinking that it was nine. 2) Went to school at eleven - march past practice. Practiced till four. 3) Shouted the hell out of myself while marching. 5) the make up stung my face like sh*t ( I decided to use my language decently). 6) Slipper fell out while marching - ran around the field with one bare foot trying to get my slipper back from the captain.

And now, my legs and arms hurt like hell and thus, I shall retire to my bed. G'night.

Hugs and kisses,
The Guru
(Whom is really pissed off right now)

Mommy's Birthday Poem (2007)

Dear beloved mommy
It's your birthday today
Just try not to be funny
And you might get your way

Dear beloved mommy
May you receive expensive presents
It won't cost you any money
But it'll make us all peasants

Dear beloved mommy
I hope you're having a good day
You look as sweet as honey
Hope it lasts till May

Dear beloved mommy
This may not be the best poem ever
I'll try to make it better and better
And present it to you next December

I'll let you in on a secret

Today, I saw something I don't think I should have seen. If you're thinking something that has to do with spirits or ghosts... YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT - not. Well, I'm pretty sure you're literally frying your brain to figure out what I saw. I'll tell you something - it wasn't a pretty sight and it made me realize what the world was becoming. Okay, okay, I'll start. I was in school, on my way to class to get my things before I went home. By that time, most teachers and students already went home. As if the silence wasn't already killing me, I saw a figure at the back of the class. It turned out to be a guy and guess what? A girl was in his arms. She definitely looked older than him but just the sight of them together, alone for such a long time, gave me the creeps. I took my belongings and ran out of the class without saying a word. Boy, was that awkward - intruding a couple's own intimate moment. I'm gonna have to stop now cause I'm getting goosebumps all over my arm. Hope you found this post interesting and knowledgeable - DO NOT EVER SHARE INTIMATE MOMENTS WITH YOUR LOVED ONES IN SCHOOL.

i seriously cannot wait

Okay.. in about a month's time, the greatest thing will happen. On May the 22, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of The Crystal Skull is premiering! Anyway, I composed this post only because I think my blog wouldn't be complete if I didn't. To you strangers who have managed to read my blog, I just wanted to let you know that Indiana Jones is FREAKING IMPORTANT to me. I just love his movies and I know the fourth production will be no different. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about Indy - ALL HAIL INDIANA JONES!
