so the clock's striking 12 in a couple of hours & it'll be the new year.
2008.. TWO-OH-OH-EIGHT.to some, it'll be a big deal.
to me, it'll be an even BIGGER deal. coz i might be off to somewhere. in pursuit of my future happiness.. (now that, shall be an entry worth writing about once i truly know i got it)
2007, has been a negotiably good year. with birthday surprises all around. i graduated from poly. i started my new job. i made my parents worry less about me. i got to travel alot. i made new friends with whom i treasure & trust my life upon. i ate, i laughed, i jiggled. i got to learn about life just a little bit more.
there were times of course i felt like banging my head on the wall. where i cried so many times just because things weren't exactly going my way. and where i ddnt listen when friends & family simply warned me that fickle-mindedness will bring me nowhere.
i was disappointed at one point of time (crashed & burned, some might say).. but that lesson learnt, was something i treasured till now.
well, i ddnt bother coming up with a new year's resolution for this year as i did say the year before's still pending. but the fact that 3/4 of that resolution is probably stale shitless by now, i shall enlighten myself with new ones for the upcoming year.
one: to see the world with an even bigger eye. two: to be that wise person. three: to love & more importantly actually, be loved (it's about time dont u think? heh)alright, ive said enough. goodbye 2007.. HELLLLOOOO next year =)))
update on ibu's 53rd birthday celebration tmr..
holy crap.. my holiday's come to an end. its back to work tmr.. thanks arh.

day 4 & 5 in KL has been superbly chillex-ed. we walked, shopped & sight-see-ed.
this time, we had bik linda to escort us here & there. she's another one of my mum's cousins living in Klang.
shopped at KLCC where mum bought a Coach bag for herself.
"alamak, ibu beli a 2nd birthday gift for myself can right??"
my gawd woman. it's your bloody money!
to add to her collection, so she said. tsk.
(the woman just bought an LV bag less than a month ago, mind you)
anyhoos, after KLCC. we car rided to Dataran Merdeka. where m'sia's national day parade is held most of the time. it reminded me so much of our Padang back home. the wind was good. i loved the place.
KLCC was full of christmascy ornaments. so were the other shopping malls i think. & holy crap. my feet almost gave way after walking for 3 hours straight in there!
that's bik linda & her eldest daughter, Adrini. naughty little bugger but oh-so-photogenic. chet!
next day, we went to Central Market aka Pasar Seni in the morning. since bik linda could only join us in the late afternoon, we hailed our own cab & found out numerous back alleys. i felt so tourist-y & so the jakun. with the police sirens & traffic jams, very the KL menjerit kan?? haha.. riighhht..
in the evening, we went to one their more popular steak joints, CHILI'S.. omgggg!!! we ate till we had to unbotton our pants!! the serving was the ultimate lah. big thanks to paman hatta for the treat. (the bill was the ultimate too!!)
one more day to go.. heading home on saturday. & i have a feeling, i'm on night shift this monday. basket!!!

our 1st night in KL. i've never taken a real nice picture of the twin towers here. so we experimented (by the roadside mind you) lying on the pavement, blah blah.. oh, & there's the occasional nursery rhymes to my babies.
yesterday, we decided to postpone genting to today. (i'll get to the genting story later).
so paman zaidi off-ed himself from work for a while (he's the chief of malaysian police's right hand man, so its alright.. ASP katakan) and brought us sight-seeing. EYE ON MALAYSIA & menara KL were on the itinerary.
please kindly take a look at my dad. the EYE did this to him. FAILURE LAH! i told mum,
"mummy, we paid 13.50RM for ayah to sleep. bestnyer!!" -_- 
the view was nonetheless breathtaking.
and to end yesterday, we drove all the way to shah alam to have damn bloody delicious thai seafood. fyi, ive been stuffing myself like an oink oink. FAILURE!
right, the genting story. so we planned to go up genting TODAY right... but dad got "inside info" that there's major jam so we had to go for plan B, C & D. (i was all psyched to try the flying coaster man! bursted my bubble)
plan B failed too (yaya to the papaya wanna go sunway lagoon. saw the car jam, so hell NO!)
but plan C & d turned out to be good.
visited dad's cousin (he's a Datok here & they own 5 cars. double kambz) in shah alam.
then we went bowling.
kecoh lodeh!
wokay, shopping tmr. FINALLY!

greetings from KL. & im loving the free internet service im getting from the hotel. =))
we're staying at Citrus Hotel. only 6 mths old. so everything's pretty brand new. i liike..
and god bless bathtubs.. i need some serious jazz playing in there while i sip some... cappucino. (shit, im addicted to this particular brand of instant cappucino my mum bought in batam.)
so tmr we're going up genting for a day. i shall take all the rides that i ddnt manage to take when i went with su & ad. i really hope the flying coaster is opened man.
alright. im gonna catch up with my current korean crave.
laters!!

i spent a classic hari raya haji with daddy's side of the family.
grandma & tante came over to stay yesterday since mum decided to host hari raya haji this year.
there's just something about my dear uncles & aunts & cousins that i cant seem to not enjoy their company no matter how irritatingly annoying they can be to my dad sometimes. (they ARE blood afterall.)
their loyar buruk-ness gets to me always but nonetheless, i have to admit its damn hilarious!
today is NOT an exception.
we started to karaoke. & my uncles sang their lungs out. towards the middle, paman idris buat kelakar lah
"ok.. skarang kiter kat wedding nyer nurul.. testing, testing.."
"eh eh.. nurul dah malu!! tngh sebok bersanding ke??"
OMG! like.. WHAAAAAT???
let me die standing already. AKU RELAAAA!!!!
it sucks being the eldest grandchild i tell u.
more disadvantages than i'd prefer.
i think they have started to imagine
rewang-ing my wedding.
haiyoh.
STRESS.
bf, where the bloody hell are you????? SOS here, HELLLOOO!!!
dear khairuddin, our ears got semi tone-deafed for ahwile. out of tune pun takper. buat DAK jer. tsk!!
little bugger. we call him asian idol just because his name is lutfil hadi. (i know, sesunggunyer takder link!)
the 2nd batch of younger granddaughters. they're practically 13,14,15 years younger than me. goodness! tua bangka lah aku beb..
figure out whos my carbon copy in this photo. =))

How Do You Heal A Broken Heart - walker chris
I can't believe what i just heard
Could it be true
Are you the girl I thought I knew
The one who promised me her love
Where did it go
Does anybody ever know
How do you heal a broken heart
That feels like it will never beat this much again
Oh no
I just can't let go
How do you heal a broken heart
That feels like it will never love this much again
Tonight I'll hold what could be right
Tomorrow I'll pretend to let you go
And were you ever what you seemed
Or was I a fool who fell in love
With his own dream
And now you say you want to leave
Start a new life today
Those words I thought you'd never say
Tonight I'll hold what could be right
Tomorrow I'll pretend to
Wake and put it all behind me
And find that I have finally found
A new life
In my soul
And find that I know how to let you go
You go
i was browsing some MVs when i came across this song. ive never heard of the singer, much less the song. i hope i'm helping. i really do.
babe, this is for you.. =)
i pray that you find your inner strength. i know you can do it. i know you.

im having the biggest urge to suck helium & join them cute things singing
"Only yoooooouuuuu..." . no shit!
something cute, hilarious, witty & most importantly... ENTERTAINING!!! i liiiike...
i have this habit of watching a movie without knowing what the heck im watching in the first place. (cant be bothered with the synopsis really) and usually, i consider myself a lucky bitch. cause the movies i watch without intending to watch happen to be some cool rockin' shows =))

"you're my sunshine after the rain...

best friend = the one who is closest to you
that was the answer i got when i googled those 2 words. no matter which online dictionary it was, it all boils down to the same definition.
friends to me have always been my treasure chest. they think of ways to cheer you up when you're down AND they can come up with the most absurd, ridiculous, annoying things to say/do just to make life miserable, but at the end of the day, take a deep breath & think about it, "hey, they meant well.. so what the heck am i getting so upset for?"
well, that's just my perception. today i learnt that not many of my friends share the same thought. for instance, to say someone has no brains, to you, that's plain rude and blunt. YES, I AGREE. but in the context where you're in a hasty conversation. words being exchanged. all thoughts in a swirl. we tend to say things we dont mean. it was never my intention to make it sound obliviously rude. trust me.
it's hard to say i'm sorry cause to tell you honestly, i'm not really that sorry. we may be best friends, but hey, we have our clashes too. not everything is a bunch of roses. it's up to you to see it in any way you want.
i'll still be here. your best friend forever.
9 days of kicking back & relaxing has finally started... FINALLY!
now, how about that hair cut eh??
