18 more days

to STPM.

my dependency on sweets has increased two folds, but my diligence is decreasing daily.

I remember studying like mad for SPM but I can’t put into practice what I did last time.

meet my new best-friends, notorious for causing tooth-decay but nevertheless hasn’t failed to bring some joy into my life. for a brief moment.

they’re like drugs..

smarties (claimed to contain no artificial colouring)

Bourbon. every biji costs 15 cents.

Mentos Pure Fresh. sugar free, with green tea filling. they look more like miniature jurrasic eggs.

Skittles Littles- small in size, big in damage!

and the Coffee Bean Choc chip Muffin—perhaps the best muffin in the world.

Now I was studying bio and came across this question:

-.- Talking books?

I’ll soon be out of my mind in the same way, except that I’ll talk to my books instead of them talking to me.

LAME JOKE OF THE DAY

(dumb blonde joke week)

A guy decides to bring his new blonde girlfriend to a football game. After the game is over, he asks her if she liked the game.
She replies: "Oh it was great, I loved watching those men in tight clothes, but there is one thing I don't understand."
"What did you not understand ?"
And the blonde says: "Well, at the beginning of the game, both teams flipped a quarter to see who would kick off first. Then the rest of the game everybody was yelling get the quarter back, get the quarter back, get the quarter back. So I thought to myself, gosh it's just a quarter!"

my new best friends-books

Ever since the Taman Tun library has been jam packed with people (including those who do not have the slightest interest books but go to the library for, erm, recreational purposes), I’ve chosen a place that presents a more conducive environment for studies.

Coffee Bean! (not gonna mention which outlet because I currently there’s someone stalking me)

No annoying kids PDA-ing, no shitty rules such as not being allowed to bring your water bottle into the library so you have to walk more than 40 steps just to get a sip.

No rude librarians. no one to hush or shush you.

the only downside is that it’s inevitable to spend a bomb on a cup of hot water+leaves, or what is known to us as tea.

but it’s definitely a comfy place,the tea and coffee keeps you awake,good music, and I was studying there comfortably.

Until one day…… (and the story starts)

My friends and I always sit near the plug. Laptop users would always come to ask and ask if we’d be kind enough to switch places with them, so that they could have the plug. (this has happened 3 times so far)

the first person who asked us if we could change places with her was this lady in her 20s.

we had no problem with switching places, so we did. while we were moving our cups, books to the adjacent table, 2 ladies came in. they were about to sit on the table we were moving to.

so the lady who asked to switch places politely told them, ‘sorry, this table is taken’ while motioning to the table.

without hesitation. they both left coffee bean.

and there were at least 8 other vacant seats in the cafe.

that’s not it! one of ‘em cursed at me! (what did I do?! now why didn’t she curse my sister or chong de or the laptop lady)

she gave the ‘what the hell’ gesture and said something unintelligible in chinese. (the other girl, her friend, was silent)

she continued cursing even after she was out of coffee bean.

what was that all about?!

and for her to be a LADY (no, not an auntie) who is perhaps in her 20s.

wah seriously. she should be condemned to studying Pendidikan Moral for ten years.

A couple of days later, she came to coffee bean. with the same friend.

I was already so disgusted when she stepped in.

Imagine my disgust when i noticed that they did not order ANYTHING, yet had such thick skin to use coffee bean’s wifi and occupy such a large table (the 4 seater tables)

  image

look at that. no drinks/food on their table! WALAUh i tell you. don’t tell me she wanted to do the same thing the first time she came into coffee bean.

super thick-skinned. especially the one on the left. she was the one who cursed at me. the one with extra adipose tissues. (sorry! she was mean to me first)

how la like that. I had no idea that eating an extra meal a day would make you so thick-skinned. problem la.

let’s talk about the happy stuff. which isn’t something really worth being happy about.

I’ve been hogging sweets lately.

LAME JOKE OF THE DAY

-dumb blonde joke week-

(and i dont even blog once a week)

A blonde cop stops blonde motorist and asks for her driving license.


The Motorist scuffles around in her purse and can't find it. She says to the cop, "I must have left it at home officer."

The cop says, "Well, do you have any kind of identification?" The motorist scuffles around in her purse again, and finds a pocket mirror.

She looks at it and says to the cop, "All I have is this picture of myself."

The cop says, "Let me see it, then." So the blonde motorist gives the mirror to the blonde cop, who looks at it, and replies, "Well, if I had known you were a police officer, I wouldn't have even pulled you over. You can go now."

I don’t know what’s his problem part 2

It’s 5am in the morning, and I can’t sleep.

I’m here to blog about Elvin Leong.

again.

from forgetting to blog, because he has forgotten he even has a blog(although he was bored stiff at home and had nothing to do apart from watching lame videos on YouTube) to acting lala on msn--

SnapShot-2009627-21823

--what i’m about to tell you, is by far, the DUMBEST,MOST OBTUSE, STUPIDEST thing (that I know of) that he has ever done.

I was texting him the other day, telling him that we’re gonna have a gathering soon and invited him.

He told me he wouldn’t be able to make it, cuz he injured his leg by running into a car-.-.

so I thought it was just an ordinary injury (sprained ankle etc.)

so I forced him to come anyway. until he told me that his mom wouldn’t approve of it,

the following is our conversation through text, unabridged. try to read the whole story.

Elvin: don’t think my mom will allow me to go out cos earlier i went to college while on MC and limp around then injures myself even more ending up in hospital again. my butt dam alot of holes from the pain killer injections.
Btw do you know any good specialist who treat this kind of blunt trauma resulting in muscle contusion and hematoma to the leg? I went to gov hospital but i dun trust them LOL and i dun wanna simply go to private/specialist cuz damn expensive.

Me: ‘tat bad? aiyoyo. i dunno what the heck hematoma is. but maybe you can go to Hemalatha (we have a mutual friend named Hemalatha), maybe she can help you. i think you just need sufficient rest. no sports. dont take too much pain killer. u damn dumb run into car WTH man lol to the max.

Elvin: HAHA i thought of her (Hemalatha) too! It’s like internal bleeding, i also dun wanna take too much pain killer but when the pain strikes its like end of the world. cant sleep.took damn alot of Xrays. when they take my pelvic area, i can feel the sperms in my testicle (he didn’t use the plural. he has only one testicle) exposed to the radiation damaging the DNA :’( 
(clearly, he’s been studying too much Biology, which is great news)

Me: You got BANGED by a car isit-.- omg lik wth man abcbbq powerpuff. i thought you ran into a STATIONARY car-.-
so how now? what exactly happened? u seriously just need more rest. pain is unavoidable. why didn’t call? could have went visit you with flowers.

---------------be prepared for a forehead slapping session---------------

Elvin: I sprint with my eyes closed. den i dint realise i was sprinting sideways den i crashed onto a STATIONARY car

-.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- -.- x10000000

Ya Allah, Ya Tuhanku.

don’t want people visit la my leg so ugly now…all black. later you think I went to Africa for leg transplant ( what-.- )
Now my leg feels very uneasy and painful. can’t lift my leg up or walk. damn cacat lol.

hell, yeah you’re cacat Elvin. cacat minda.

I try and try but I can’t seem to get how his sluggish mind works.

 

LAME JOKE OF THE DAY dedicated to Elvin Leong. get well soon

(dumb blonde joke week)

A blonde hurries into the emergency room late one night with the tip of her index finger shot off. "How did this happen?" the emergency room doctor asked her.


"Well, I was trying to commit suicide," the blonde replied.

"What?" sputtered the doctor. "You tried to commit suicide by shooting your finger off?"

"No, Silly!" the blonde said. "First I put the gun to my chest, and I thought: I just paid $6,000.00 for these breast implants, I'm not shooting myself in the chest."

"So then?" asked the doctor.

"Then I put the gun in my mouth, and I thought: I just paid $3000.00 to get my teeth straightened, I'm not shooting myself in the mouth."

"So then?"

"Then I put the gun to my ear, and I thought: This is going to make a loud noise. So I put my finger in my ear before I pulled the trigger."

Facts about Rachel Yau #1

I’m short-sighted.

like crazy myopic.

Think it sucks that you can’t see words on the board without spectacles on? try being me.

image
no, I wasn’t sniffing the cloth. I was cleaning the table without spectacles on

yes, it is that bad. if i’m not wearing my specs/contact lenses, it means that I can’t tell who you are. AT ALL. even if you are just half a metre away.

All I can see are colours. fuzzy colours.

 

LAME JOKE OF THE DAY

A blonde and a brunette are out driving, and the brunette tells the blonde to look out for cops - especially cops with their lights on. After they've been driving for a while, the brunette asks the blonde if she's seen any cops.
"Yes," says the blonde.
"Are their lights on?"
The blonde has to think for a moment, then says, "Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No."

The last days of form 6 –my class

STPM will soon dawn on us and we will all die…..

on the brighter side, we no longer have to be stuck in high school.

I’ll miss my 7 years in SMK Taman SEA though.

and I’ll deifnitely miss my classmates.

Kentrick Ang Roymond, the guy sitting on my left,also the guy who plays ‘who packs their bags faster’ with me as soon as the school bell rings and it’s time to go home.

btw, happy belated birthday, roymond :)

10135_162914550906_547155906_4030954_4377542_n

p/s, he isn’t usually like that (as in the picture), don’t worry.

Michelle Foo ‘Pat Por’, provider of my daily dose of gossip.

together, we form the ultimate gossip gang. more than 80% of the time, we talk rubbish with each other. and i mean rubbish. an example of our conversation:

Mich: You damn ugly la you.

Rach: Oh yeah?? you damn fat loh.

Mich: zzzz. you kurang kritik diri. (inside joke) damn zzz la you. dunno why you so ugly one.

Rach: you damn ‘pat por’ one loh. summore only talk bout food. damn fat la you. FAT.

Mich: ZZZ.

Rach: ZZZ you back.

Mich: Damn childish la we all.

Rach: yalo.

Mich: ZZZ.

Rach: ZZZ you back.

A day in school wouldn’t be called a day in school if Michelle/me doesn’t come into class and start the daily gossip by exclaiming :’YOU KNOW AH….(tells some story)’

she sits on my right.

image

Gopinathaan/Gopinaathan/Goopinathan whatever, we’ll never remember how to spell his name. he’s just known as Gopi to us.

 image

enough said from the picture.

Wai Yan, who is fascinated by all things from giant paper clips to the characteristic smell of paper, liquid paper, perfume, marker pen, you name it, she sniffs it.

 image

Prarthini, one of the greatest prefects I’ve ever met (no sarcasm here)

image

Poh Ling, who sleeps when I’m giving a speech, wakes up when I’m finished, and says ‘I like your conclusion’ –.-

image

Bee Hui, the most attentive girl in class

image

Ginny, our genius-in-a-pocket who is on facebook 24/7, talks 24/7, makes so much noise in class, yet has no trouble topping the class.

image

Carlyn (far right) who think’s i’m a nutcase.

image

But then again, I shouldn’t blame her. The things I do in school does make me look like… a troubled kid, i guess.

image image image image  imageimage image image image

….

Anyways, I’ll miss those not mentioned here too (for I don’t have pictures of you guys)

 image

Just look at our time table. 4 periods of chem on Mon, 4 periods of Bio on Wed, and 3 periods of Muet on fri.

btw,Wai yan, if Puan Gowry sees your ‘XP face’ next to the 4 periods of chem, you are so dead.

Yes, I’ll definitely miss all these.

Shall we get off the computer and study hard now? (:

Manga and Anime

It’s really bad that I’ve started to take interest in reading manga and watching anime.

All I thought of manga was that they are just drawings of people with over-sized eyes and of girls with over-sized bosoms and skirts shortened by half.

That was until I read and watched Vampire Knight.

DSC02698

took me two complete days to finish watching the anime

to read more about how I got into this shit hole, click here.

In short, it was all Michelle Foo’s fault.

Even PRARTHINI started reading Vampire Knight. Maybe she had a fever or something. or maybe it was just because I was too much of a good story teller that she couldn’t care less that she was a bout to visit Onemanga.com for the first time in her life. she just craved for the ending to the story (which she did not get to read anyway because the series is too long)

at least I don’t look so weird. The fact that PRARTHINI even visited onemanga.com is---- nvm.. don’t wanna be bashed up by anime fans.

On the other hand, I’ve been banged by anime haters rather badly when I told them what has been occupying so much of my time lately. (other than coffee bean and starbucks)

Even my japanese friend couldn’t take it.

SnapShot-2009925-214032 

Masatoshi Hara, aka Max, can be really defensive when it comes to his country and race.

Once, when all I did was tell him innocently that IP MAN was a great show, he acted as if he could have killed me with a samurai.

therefore, to receive such comment such as ‘OMG I HATE YOU YOU F-TARD’ is just unacceptable.

he has his reasons for hating anime though.

and the reason is that many girls want to date him (so he claims) just because they like anime, and they say that he looks like one.

that’s pretty sad.

speaking of Japan, I’m still feeling rather devastated that I left my transparent umbrella in a restaurant few months back:(

it was like, the coolest umbrella I ever had that made me not mind holding an umbrella wherever I went.

The umbrella costs around RM4 each, is found in any shop in Japan, and is of superior quality despite the availability in shops and the low price.

I really should have bought 10 umbrellas when I was there :(

SANY2849_thumb[1]

nigel and I, with our then brand-new umbrellas, in Akhihabara, Tokyo.

conclusion: It’s ok to read manga as long as you’re not spending too much time on it.

It’s also only okay to read them if they have a good story line. ( I read another series by the same author called Meru Puri, which, apart from inducing reactions such as ‘aww, so sweet’, ‘omg he’s so cute’, is a complete waste of time and is only suitable for girls like Michelle Foo who prefer living in a fantasy world rather than looking at reality, where no such ‘sweet’ and ‘cute’ guys could possibly exist.)

underage.

alright. so more than 20 people have said that i look above 20 years old.

do I, really?

Yes, yes. i look older than my older sister, Pamela Yau Shin Torng. I’ve already accepted that fact long ago.

image

image adopted from my sister’s blog. I was screaming, while shielding my own ears from the shrilling sound whereas my sister, perhaps forgot that she too, has hands to cover her ears and looks greatly distressed.

I looked so much younger than her last time! (duh, due to size) what happened now???? :( :(

4551_89115622479_756292479_1789110_7468833_n

ok i guess i do look older than her. but PS: she looks much taller only cuz she was wearing heels. we don’t even look alike.

and NO, for the billionth time. we are NOT twins. I’m 17+, she’s 19years and 9 months old. that’s a huge difference.

But. it’s not a bad thing right (: to look more mature.

Back to me looking above 20. wth?

I remember once, when I was at The Curve, one of those annoying people who want to ask you to sign up for a credit card approached me.

‘MISS AH MISS! INTLESTED IN HSBC CLEDIT CARD AH? bla blabla---‘

i swiftly put up one hand, and said cooly : ‘I’m underage.’

‘NO LA MISS NOWADAY 18 YEAR OLD (or something like that) ALSO CAN APPLAI FOR CLEDIT CARD OLEDI ONE.’

‘I’m….still underage.’

‘HAR! *gives me the –.- look* BUT YOU LOOK LIKE 25 YEAR OLD LEHH~~~!! ^.^’

…………….

what. did he think I was lying bout my age? –.-

Yesterday, I went to the bank in response to a letter I received from them, saying that I can now apply my own ATM card because I’m about to turn 18.

and when I went to customer service, they told me that…..I’m underage.

Whenever I go out for a movie with my friends, they won’t let me buy the tickets, because i’m underage.

Whenever we hang out and order some alcoholic drinks, my friends would make a comment, or ask. ‘aren’t you underage?’

IT’S OK. for things are about to change..next month….

I feel so young around everyone (:

 

LAME JOKE OF THE DAY

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of

them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing

and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out

his phone and calls the emergency services.


He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?"

The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First,

let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then

a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy

says: "OK, now what?"
