Movie Day

Okay, so.

It was Christmas yesterday, so Merry Christmas.

Last night, me, my sister and my cousins were bored.

So we went out for a movie.

Or at least we tried.

GSC at Pavilion was so full it was hard to move around.

And I'm not exaggerating when I say that!

We wanted to watch Sherlock Holmes, you see.

Initially we wanted to watch the 7.20 show with Kakteh and Abg Mut as well. (She was on-call the next day so she wanted an earlier show)

But as expected, no seats left.

So we decided on the 10.15 pm show instead.

Of all nights, that was the night where we couldn't buy tickets online via credit card.

For some reason.

So we had to go there ourselves, line up and buy them.

Such a waste of time and energy!

Luck was not with us.

The 10.15 show was sold out.

But we were so determined to watch it, we bought tickets for the next day (meaning today).

Sherlock Holmes at 11.45AM, GSC, Pavilion.

Not a bad movie. It was quite interesting, actually, but everyone was sleepy.

Why?

Well, before the movie started, we bought hot dogs, popcorn and drinks from the counter.

Not only that, we bought Chicken Popcorn from KFC as well. Had to smuggle it in la. ;)

Ate it in the theatre. Full like crazy mann!

After Sherlock Holmes, Kakya and I wanted to watch the Vampire's Assistant.

We bought the tickets for the 5.10PM show before we went in for Sherlock Holmes.

When the first movie ended it was around 2. So we had 3 hours to kill.

And so starts the shopping. At first it was Tangs. We bought a whole lot of chocolate. Like, RM100's worth. (Since you can claim 2 hours' free parking when you spend over RM100 in a single receipt)

And did we need those 2 hours' free parking!

We (well, 3 of us, actually) ate Subway, since Kakya like, mengidamkan it. For reasons I do not know. It had something to do with the night I went out with Aimi, Malik and Izzudin at Jusco. Don't ask.

After that we went our separate ways. I walked around with Kakya, waiting for 5 o'clock to come around.

Kakda went back with Abg Hazwan and Kak Liyana. (My other sis and my two cousins)

We (me and Kakya) went shopping around Forever 21 and Cotton On. Didn't buy anything.

Went up the the 6th floor. Got sidetracked to Video Ezy on the way to Starbucks. Didn't buy anything there either.

Reached Starbucks. I got myself a Caramel Cream. Kakya bought the Cranberry and Grapefruit juice bottle thingy.. (I don't know what it's called)

Really pahit and masam. Not my cup of tea.

So we spent our time in Starbucks until it was 5.

The Vampire's Assistant at 5.10PM, GSC, Pavilion.

Now this was the movie I've been waiting for.

I've even read the books! Though I haven't finished reading the very last one, which is the 12th book, mind you. Reading it as we speak. =)

The movie, which is supposedly based on the first 2 books, is completely, well, maybe not completely, but considerably so, different from what I've read.

A good movie, I must say. It was funny. I liked it, but I just have to say that it's not like the book.

There were characters that didn't exist in the book but appeared in the movie, and the characters that existed in the book weren't in the movie..I'd say they switched it up.

So there's no hope the later movies (if they ever make them) will be like the rest of the Darren Shan Saga. Sadly. It's such a nice collection.

So that's that then.

After the movie we went home straight away.

Not before forgetting where we parked and roamed around the parking lot a bit.

Dah lah pening from staying in Pavilion for 8 hours, we had to look for our car.

What a day!

But I enjoyed it. =)

PMR Results Day

The pre-results feeling was killing me.

The night before, I felt sleepy.

But by the time I closed my bedroom door behind me, I couldn't sleep a wink.

So I tossed and tuned until about... 2 maybe?

Then I woke up at 7 something.

Reached school by 9. (I know, awal kan?)

At that time, it was just me, Alini, a few girls from 3A and few from 3B.

Not that many to begin with.

When it was nearing 9.45, the school canteen was filling up.

Not just by form 3's, but parents were waiting anxiously too.

Pn. Ann went to get the results at 10.

We were like, "WHAT?! We have to wait longer now????"

So pissed.

Getting more excited/anxious/nervous.

One or two were so nervous they cried.

Canteen's getting noisier.

A group of people get up and walk to the hall. (just to be early, you know)

Everyone notices and gets up as well.

We all file into the hall.

Everyone sits, asking their friends to be with them.

Holding hands.

Hugging each other good luck.

Pn. Ann steps on stage.

The hall falls silent.

The tension grows thick.

In fact, it was so thick you could slice it like you do with butter.

She gives a speech.

Thanks the students and parents for being here today.

Congratulates all the form 3's, no matter what the outcome.

Quotes Shakespeare. (I can't recall what, I had more important things in mind at the time)

States that this year, 67 students got straight A's.

Percentage of those who passed was almost 99%.

2 students failed Maths.

1 Failed BM.

100% passed was for English, Geo and surprisingly Science.

Starts to announce the girls who got straight A's (8A's and 7A's) and 7A 1B.

She starts with 3B. Moves on to 3U, 3K, and 3T.

All those whose names were mentioned stepped on stage.

Smiling, laughing, crying. All out of happiness.

Then comes 3N. Quite a number of girls.

3A. Even more so.

3W. Also quite a number of girls.

Then, 3P.

As Pn. Ann said, "Now, 3P. The best performing class."

That was more than enough to get us all excited and anticipate the best.

I listened closely. Held on the Sonia's hand as hard as I could.

Practically jumped up when I heard her call out my name.

All I was thinking when I got up on that stage was, "I got 8A's!!!!"

I hugged Dian. She was practically screaming and jumping with joy.

Denise was like, "Dian, you need to calm down. The stage might collapse."

But who cares! Everyone was just too happy to be bothered.

So once we got off the stage to collect our certificates and result slips, those who got 8 and 7 A's tried to comfort those who didn't.

We took pictures.

Laughed.

Cried.

Hugged.

Congratulated.

Lots of stuff.

It was an emotional whirlpool.

So in the end, out of the 67 girls who scored straight A's, 20 of them were from 3P.

Yes, myself included. =D

Oh the joy.

No one can take away this happiness from me.

So, to those who got straight A's, Congratulations.

And to those who didn't, it's not the end of the world.

(I know you might think this is easy for me to say, considering the results that I got, but it's true)

You don't need to get 8A's in PMR to succeed.

So now, let's focus on SPM! =.='"

Pretty good, pretty damn good..

I loved this week.
I really did.
I don't even know where to start.
Okay umm.... how about I list them?
They may not be in order but..I'll try my best yeah?

1. I went out a lot. Like, almost every day of the week. (With who is a different matter)
2. I watched a bunch of movies. Two days ago I watched Zombieland and today I watched Avatar. =)
3. I've read quite a lot. Right now I'm in the middle of the Darren Shan saga. (The Vampire's Assistant movie is based on those books)
4. We bought a bookcase at IKEA! It's green. But it was real pain to assemble it.
5. I've proven to myself (in front of a few people) that I can play Expert level on Guitar Hero.
6. I finished watching You're Beautiful. It took a few days, but all those hours in front of YouTube were worth it!
7. I got my braces off. =D

Yeah, I think that's about it.
But maybe I left out a few little things.
It's not exactly easy to remember what happened this week right off the top of yor head you know!

Oh, and this is something quite irrelevant, but I'm comteplating on forgetting that guy.
(This may only concern a selected few)
Just felt like stating that out loud.
Makes me believe it more too.
And really, it's okay to state stuff like that to convince yourself, as long as not everyone gets the picture.

You get my drift here?
Hmm, maybe not.
Nevermind then.

I'm So Disappointed

I did something really really stupid.

I'm so freaking pissed at myself right now.

A mistake anyone, well, a lot of people make.

But it's so stupid!

I could've avoided it.

It's no big deal.

In fact, it's stupid.

What did I do?

I clicked on a link.

And what happened when I clicked on that link?

The page loaded to somewhere else.

What page was I on previously?

YouTube. =.="

I waited all morning to watch it.

Then I made the stupid mistake of clicking on a link without holding down the 'control' button.

ALL MORNING I waited.

For nothing.

I AM SO MAD!!!! >=(

You must think I'm irrational for being mad at this.

But you must understand my frustration.

This is a video that I'm crazy obsessed over watching.

I waited a long time for it load completely.

Kept on checking on it to see if it's done.

Then it was.

So I was gonna watch it.

But I got sidetracked by something.

So I clicked that STUPID LINK.

Then poof! It's gone.

Just like that.

EEEEE!!!!

Don't worry, I think I've calmed down now.

Just by a little bit.

I went back to that page.

It's in the middle of loading again.

Ciao.

Goodbye Westerns, Hello Asians

I'm sure you're wondering what this is about.
Recently, the whole obsession over Japanese/Korean dramas has started up again.

This time though, somehow my aunt got pulled into it as well.
It's still got me dumbfounded how that happened.

It all started about a 2 weeks ago, or maybe one, I'm not sure, when Kakya and I went into Speedy in Pavilion.
She bought The Legend of Hong Gil Dong.
Because she didn't finish watching it before.
Or something.
Anyway, I watched the first 2 episodes with her.
And guess what?
I was interested in it.
and once I'm interested in a story, there's almost no way for you to make me stop thinking about it.
Which results in me going to sleep at 4 something just because I wanted to finish watching the whole season.
Which had 24 episodes, by the way.
Each lasting about an hour or so.

It's not that i just watch it at night, when everyone's asleep.
No, I watch it in the daytime as well.
One of those times, my aunt watched an episode or two with me.
I was tempted to switch it off and change to Astro, but my selfishness got in the way.
There was no hope in geting me switch to regular TV once I'm hooked on something.
Except of course if my dad's the one who wants to watch TV.
That's another story.
I didn't expect my aunt to be hooked onto the show as well.
That was the most shocking.

Now she wants to bring it back to Oman with her to watch.

Well, I'm glad to say I've finished watching it already.
Truth be told, I did not like the ending.
It was too... grim.
If I may say so myself.
But the whole series in general was good.
I laughed, (and cried, admittedly).
Let's just sa I was too caught up in the moment.
Jang Geun Suk is SO HANDSOME!!!!!! =D

Eventhough some may argue that he looks too feminine.
But that's just because of the hair.

With the end of one, comes another.
But I haven't even got hold of it yet.
it's called 'You're Beautiful'.
Starring... Jang Geun Suk!
Hahahaha. I found it by accident, really.

As usual, after watching a drama, I always obsess a bit over it.
In comes Google.
Oh how I love it. It's so useful and satisfying when it comes to getting info.
Actually I was looking up the sequel to Hong Gil Dong.
That's where I found out about You're Beautiful.
Looks interesting, but like I said,I don't have it yet.
Can't wait, though. =)

Oh, and if you're interested in knowing what he looks like and some suff about korean dramas, check out drama beans.
It's a blog.
Quite an intersting read, if you're into the whole TV series-drama-actors stuff.
Yeah.
Or just Google the name.
Easier that way, I guess.

Bye!
