Gone, again

I lost my "virginity" for the second time this year...

No, no, no, don't worry.. I'm not talking about THE virginity...

No. 1 was lost when I went up to Genting in January.. The slots stole RM20 from me... Lol...

No. 2 was/or is/or whatever tense it's supposed to be

Today!

Where...

I donated blood for the first time in my life! :D

At PPUM (Formerly known as University Hospital)

And... I'm feeling happy because:

1. I got a nicer donor book than my friends have from before :p (hardcover book leh! Hahah)

2. Free food ftw! (Should've asked for apple juice.. I didn't know they had a juicer)

3. I did a good deed, and hopefully just saved someone's life in the future! (Eh, why this one come last one? XDD)

But I think I shall just go lie down now.. Lol

Will be going for Taekwondo later :p

Crazy, yeah?

*fists pull hair*

Y'know.. it sucks having to tie your purse strings when the Sales are just around the corner...

Repeats to self: "I don't need new things, I don't need new things, I don't need nice new dresses and shoes and handbags and... Gah! Who am I trying to kid?"

*Sigh*

I love...

Being able to come back from work at 5pm.

(I hope my boss doesn't see this lol)

Ai-yai-yai

Note to self:

Do not go digging into the past without bringing along proper "gear".

Outcome = Further insecurities + Disaster with a capital "D"

A long long time ago...

It's amusing re-reading old posts and comments on blogs and knowing the outcomes of questions asked back then...

I can't help smiling now...

The question of: "Who would have thought, eh?" is very much... true :)

No sleeping tonight? Nah....

I'm stupid because I just like scaring myself. Lol.

Went with my colleagues for a movie today. I guess you can pretty much guess what I watched by my first statement above.

Freddy, Freddy, he who haunts your dreams and makes your nightmares come true...

I went in to the cinema hoping to get psychologically freaked by Michael Bay's remake of the 1984 box-office hit, but instead I came out vaguely scared and feeling a little let down by it. Although Jackie Earle Haley was playing Freddy, somehow I felt that he didn't pull off the character the way it could and should've been pulled off.. The scenes were predictable, the suspense mild and lacking in some areas, and well, I guess my expectations for it was just too high...

I'd call it a typical Hollywood horror remake...

Maybe I should get my hands on the original version... Maybe then I'd get some scaring I was looking for... Lol...

Note: Michael Bay produced the film, it was directed by Samuel Bayer.

Two books I've recently finished:

The Other Boleyn Girl

by Philippa Gregory

This being a story revolving around the English court, you'd think: Surely interesting.

I'm telling you, calling it interesting would be undermining it...

It tells about the little known sister of Anne Boleyn, Mary, with the story itself revolving around the annulment of the royal marriage between King Henry VIII and Katherine of Aragon... Although, as a side note, it is after all fiction and has been criticised to be hugely historically inaccurate.

Scandals, affairs, gossip, plotting, ambition... this book has it all..

I couldn't put the book down the whole time I was reading it.. and all I wanted to do right up till the end was to turn to the next page and the next page and the next page...

Feeling like life could use a little bit of spicing up? Try this book... ;)

I think it may just leave you wanting more..

I surely do... however,financial constraints have been what's holding me back from getting the other 5 sequels written by Gregory herself...

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith

Die hard classic literature fans would definitely kill me if I said I love this book.

But the fact is, I do.

Seth Grahame-Smith did a fantastic job of taking one of Jane Austen's most popular works, and turning it into something much more... Readable for the normal human.

Don't get me wrong, I did fine going through Pride and Prejudice (Sense and Sensibility stretched me to my limit though), but reading through this book was just absolutely fun.

Imagine, Elizabeth the zombie slayer with her Shaolin training and love for Japanese katars?

Just awesome.

Coupled with Grahame-Smith's ability to turn the most dull of passages in the book into something amusing... Simply awesome.

If you've read through Pride and Prejudice and could barely stand it, AND if you have a love for zombies that you need to re-discover... My advice: Go get your hands on this book, and I guarantee you it will be a fun ride! ;)

Pondering...

Where God is leading me in life and what He wants me to do from here...

Sorry

Ah, "Sorry"... such an overused word.

You say "Sorry" when you've made a mistake.

You say "Sorry" when you've done something wrong.

You say "Sorry" when you've pissed someone off.

You say "Sorry" when you've hurt someone's feelings...

But should you be saying "Sorry" when in fact, you've done nothing wrong at all?

I guess the answer to that should be no, regardless of whether the other party expects an apology from whoever or not.

And that's what is wrong with me. I have this tendency to apologise and feel bad for things that I shouldn't be apologising for, because in fact, I did no wrong at all.

Is it pity I'm feeling for the other party that makes me apologise? Or am I only wanting to please the other party and not hurt his or her feelings that makes me do it? Or maybe it's just purely an act of extracting pity for myself for being in that situation and wanting to turn the tide around to put attention on myself instead?

Either way, I feel like crap every time this happens. I don't enjoy it, it puts me down. But yet I still do it. And although there's that part of me inside resisting and trying to stand up and fight and say, "You freaking did nothing wrong, what in the world are you apologising for?".. I somehow manage to shut that part up and end up apologising thereafter.

I'm just so miserably pathetic, aren't I?

Splurge...

Oh no, Yong... not again?!!! >.<

In my defence, it was green...

Aiks...

Chocolate Milk Shake with Vanilla Ice-cream... The one with more ice-cream isn't mine...
