WYD

sorry I haven't updated anything about WYD. its just been really hectic and well, my uncle's camera with all the pics is getting fixed. i shouldn't even be here actually. so, learn patience while you wait. ;D

WYD post-due in 2 weeks more or less. lol

BeNGKOK

hey!!
I'm currently in a KIOSK at Bangkok. Its currently 11.15pm Malaysian time and my flight to Sydney is at 1am!!!! sorry. I'm a little hyper over the flight. food was nice on the aeroplace. YAY THAI AIRLINES! lol

nothing much happening yet. Its a LONG flight to SYD for WYD and I think I'll be sleeping on the plane. I miss Tiny. and Max. I hope you're all OKAY right now. i would have called Jess or Mel but its as I've jut said, 11.15pm.

The kiosk charges 100baht (RM10) for 20 mins. costly right? but they have to make money from tourists, right? Oh, this one white lady thought I was going for the Olympics. i wish I was representing Malaysia in the Olympis. haha. that would be fun.

okay, stopping here for now. BWAIIII

World Youth Day 2008

world youth day to me:
hope
rejuvenation
trust
love
sharing
unity
strengthening

most of all, a beginning.

I'm leaving tomorrow and will be back on the 22nd of July. I'm excited and scared. With the constraint of my finances, this will truly be a pilgrimage. :) Dikir Barat performace is on Thursday as Mark has told us. And on the same night Matt Maher will be performing at the harbour! I hope I can make it in time for the concert. :D :D John Pridmore will be there too. WYD officially starts on the 15th (or was it 14th) so my mom and I will be meeting up with the Opus Dei group from Singapore. The youth want to meet ME! wow! Someone WANTS to meet me!!! :D :D :D That's cool right?

I'm going to miss school though. Strange as it is. I hope the YE members will be able to conduct the meeting well. and GOOD LUCK for the ITC presentation. It would be AWESOME to win the INTERNATIONAL challenge. We've been shortlisted to the top 10 in Malaysia. ;D how amazing is that? So many amazing things to be grateful for right? yes, yes indeed.

I'm feeling happy right now. I really am. Its a new day tomorrow and a WHOLE weeks of FUN for my mom and me. Then again, Mark said we shouldn't expect to have FUN the whole time so I'll say, its going to be a MEANINGFUL and MEMORABLE week for my mom and I.

YAY, WORLD YOUTH DAY 2008!!!

who will i be?

Who will i be?
It's up to me
All the never-ending possibilities
That I can see
There's nothing that i can't do
Who will i be?
Yes, I believe
I get to make the future what I want to
If I can become anyone and know the choice is up to me
Who will I be?

Demi Lovato, Camp Rock

chihuahua?

bootcamp

I was watching a clip and I've just realised that maybe it would be fun to attend a bootcamp. Haha. I know really random right?

But I think bootcamps would be fun. Maybe.
The whole boots. in camp.

can you tell I'm a bit perky today? I think I annoyed everyone. But I made all of them laugh. Which is good.

tiffany's

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Can anyone truly understand this story? I guess some are able to. To me its just Holly's life story in her day to day journey. To think they would make a story where the man lead was an escort! Somehow Audrey keeps sounding like Eliza Doolitle from My Fair Lady. Its permanent.

But there's this classic scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's:
Paul Varjak: I love you.
Holly Golightly: So what.
Paul Varjak: So what? So plenty! I love you, you belong to me!
Holly Golightly: [tearfully] No. People don't belong to people.
Paul Varjak: Of course they do!
Holly Golightly: I'll never let ANYBODY put me in a cage.
Paul Varjak: I don't want to put you in a cage, I want to love you!

which comes before the EVEN more classic scene when Paul and Holly kiss in the rain. I just noticed that Cat is stuck between them. the poor cat.

utter randomness. I love Audrey Hepburn.

life in pink

Life in Pink- La Vien En Rose
who knew?

I am unbelievably lazy to go to school tomorrow. Okay, wait. believably lazy to go to school tomorrow. I am utterly and completely lazy to move my butt but I have to. oh look "butt-but". haha. okay. that was dumb.

tomorrow is another in my life where I will be 1/2 alive in school. Thank God for Jess, Mel, Fiona, Ee Vien -probably going to ponteng-, Syazana, Azlyn and Asikin. Now I think I sorta understand Shakespeare's

tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

flower power

I guess everyone likes to paint to a certain extent. Handling the brush, caring for every stroke; that takes effort. Which is why the flowers that I paint are something I'm proud of. It took a while to get the shapes right, to handle the glass jar properly.

Painting is fun when you want to "de-stress". But I had to paint to sell the glass jars. Coming up with the right type of flowers to paint is not easy. Mostly I randomly ended up with cherry blossoms, hibiscus and daisies.

conclusion: Painting is good.

peachy

peachy peachy peachy.

that's how it all seems right now. no, honestly. fine, i'm lying. everything is not peachy. everything is the incoherent mess it has always been. one more week to the one thing i've been looking forward to for two years but with all the loose ends of unfinished business to tie up. i can't wait to leave so i can be free of all this for that short period of time. just being with people who are like me and people who wouldn't mind me.

surely i am being selfish but sometimes all one needs in life is a break right? a moment in life to stop it all and keep moving forward. if i could drop all the baggage i would but i can't.

so what else to do?

keep moving forward.

wyd2008

13days! thirteen. wait to be exact its only 10 days for me as I'm leaving on the 12th of July. :D :D :D :D :D CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

sorry. I'm a little high.

veritas

Dear all,
How utterly stressful the days seem to be now! There is not a day that I feel completely at peace with everything. Perhaps this is the time of the year when everything comes together. I must say the timing is not to my liking. So many things to do, so many things to work out. I wish that life was not this complicating.

And yet, I must live through this in order to achieve my ambitions. Certificates and recommendations is what I live by. I know, I'm being selfish. I guess I have to be. But then, I feel worn out nonetheless. So much to do, so little time. I can't help but wonder if I use my 24 hours to the maximum.

Does anyone?

I guess we do our best in our lives to perform at our 100%. Its not easy is it? Maybe that's the reason we all tend to be snappish. I know, I'm rambling.

I must say (to continue my rambling phase), in conclusion, we are all pretty little liars.
