wishlist

hola people~ October is coming to an end! how time flies pretty quickly when you're having so much fun! so far October has been treating me well. apart from me being bored to death on every Wednesday and Thursday, i redeemed them all on the weekends. weee~ new year is two months away folks. can you believe it? like really believe it?? seems like just last month i posted the entry on my wishlist for this year. and now, eight months later, lets see how the list is doing so far...

2010 wishlist:

1. BUNGY jump - not yet. but instead i did flying fox on my birthday! just to warm up and polished up skills on jumping off a platform! :D


2. go Bangkok - errr maybe next year, can?

3. learn how to ride motorcycle - still got two months to go :B

4. learn how to ride motorcycle before going to Bangkok - will update after #3 is achieved!

5. learn sewing - oh i forgot bout this. haha! oopss.

6. exercise regularly & be fit - errrrrrrrr not that regular, but i did get sweaty once in a while. i miss running. really, i do. i super love running. i used to run at Reservoir Park back in Kuching. but here, scared lah want to go running anywhere. maybe an in-house treadmill is the most appropriate solution, dont you think? ;p
7. stop asking useless invitations to those who seem careless - so far, i think i've avoided making such invitations.
8. learn to trust people more - sometimes i do, sometimes i forgot..

9. have a HAPPIER birthday - HAPPIEST!! will come up with an entry all bout me turning 24 soon! :D

10. study I.D. - TICK! TICK! TICK! :D :D :D


11. talk more to strangers - will continue doing so~
12. text less to Sheila, call more (sorry babe. i know how u hate texting. sometimes i forgot~) - errrm, uh-oh. cant lie here. Sheila might be reading and she'll know if i'm lying. i say, a balance of texting and calling kan Sheila?? sometimes i just wanna say something short, i text her, but then the conversation grew so ... erk.

13. make more people happy - please tell me if i'm making you sad instead of happy, ok!

14. BE HAPPIER MYSELF! - i am happier than i was a year ago, i am happier than i was in four months ago, i am happier than i was yesterday, i will continue growing happy! yippy!

lets top-up this list, can?

15. learn to put myself first, instead of thinking of pleasing others all the time (not being self-centered yea, just looking out for myself cause the real world gets uglier as your age adds up. cant really make everyone happy all the time. i wish i could. if everybody is happy, isnt it a happy world?! who knows the earth might change its shaped into a heart shaped earth! wow i'm crapping!)

you see my wish list is not really a material-wishlist. well thats because when i first wrote this down, i didnt quite understand the concept of a wishlist. poyo jerr~ haha so this is more like a spiritual-wishlist. but IF there is another wishlist that involves material, here goes:

1. instant camera - TICK! TICK! TICK! (been eye-ing the mini Instax 7s for so long~ until the wide version came out, and i got it for turning 24 on the 24th! yeay yeay yeay!)

2. bean bag!!!! - inilah kekaseh hati untok sekian lamanyaa~

3. baking oven - so i can bake cupcakes here in KL! oh, how i miss baking cupcakes :(

4. Golden Half

5. one of these outdoor chairs!! - i dont know where to put them, but i still want!


6. treadmill (refer above)

7. glass cabinet - so i can keep all my growing collection of cameras inside it~ 

so tadaaa!! you must've wished you did not just read my wishlist coz that means you are obliged to fulfill them!! haha

another birthday dinner tonight. i better get ready! toodles!

hari bersamanya

16 October 2010

it started out good. i was in a good mood all morning. i got to see the morning sunshine. morning sunshine makes me happy. morning sunshine gives me hope and somehow gives lead to a good day.

duo singing reggae happily on the street - street performers never failed to grab my attention most of the time. but it came the time when you are standing in a sea of people, busy people bustling from left to right, or just standing there blocking your path just to be part of the crowd; the time when you caved in from the world, when you feel misunderstood and hurt, when you think no one really gets you no matter how hard you try to let them in, the time when you only want to be all by yourself and cry your heart out for reasons you are not very sure of, but you want to cry anyways just for the sake of letting it out. yeah i felt that too today. but i got over it. i dont want my sensitive element to get in my way of a beautiful Saturday, so i did what i have to do to get over it.

come dusk, i am preparing myself to watch Eat Pray Love. it is the type of novel which i always see on the shelf in the bookstore which i also passed by without much anticipation.  judging the book by its cover, i assumed the book is dull and boring and for the a-little-bit-matured soul. as for the motion picture itself, i heard friends said its beautiful, its for the romantic soul, yet some say draggy, the story line is slow-paced and its long. i still have no intentions to watch it. judging the movie by its poster, Julia Robert eating some gelato on a bench next to some nuns, i think, 'okay thats eating and praying, i guess, then she'll fall in love and same yada yada stuff, and voila~ the end. just another love story'. and THEN, another someone said it was filmed in four different countries. and that caught my attention. just like that, i flipped my heart 180o and decided to watch it pronto. oh my weakness for places. thanks to Mym, i have easy access of buying last minute tickets on a busy Saturday! babe, you rock! :D though i came in the theatre i lil tad late, and i missed the introduction of Ketut, i am loving the movie so  so much i wanna watch it again (and again). it IS beautiful. it is NOT draggy for me. i am so loving the flow of it which carried me gracefully throughout the movie. i LOVE the food part the best :D watching Julia eating spaghetti makes me want to dash out of the cinema and get my own bowl of spaghetti (with meatballs!) and i dont know why but watching Liz making order in Italian language makes me want to read the book, so i can enjoy the food figuratively in my own leisure time. and yes, i assume the book elaborates more on the food (and i hope it tells how the food is being prepared as well, cause that is a super bonus point to help me imagine the food before my eyes). ok i am rambling bout food right now though i just ate. cant help it, food is just yummy. the only one thing i didnt agree was when Felipe talked Liz out bout not eating durian cause it taste like feet. durian is yummy too ok. so Liz's journey is not complete until she tries the durian. come back to Bali and eat durian ok Liz. ok now i'm rambling bout an imaginary sequel of Eat Pray Love on Liz coming back to Bali for Ketut's cremation and eating durian. well thats my story on falling in love with a movie.  and i was wrong to assume it is just another romantic love drama making its way on the silver screen. from the way i see it, it gets me thinking, it brings me to places, it pleasures my eyes with all the amazing places that i could only wish to go (for now), it treats my throat and tummy and make me vow to go food hunting even harder in the future! :D maybe also cause Apiz being awake for the entire movie makes it an enjoyable movie to watch :)

though i come home with a sore ankle, i'm glad i end it with SheilaOn7 -like song on the radio. (i think its So7, but i dont know if So7 has a new song, the singer just sound like Duta, and i miss Duta's singing. and their soothing songs.) that one completes the day :)

i just googled!! yes it is Sheila on 7! it's 'Hari Bersamanya'

everything that happened today, be it walking under the sun, singing to the cheerful song about girl meets boy on replay, taking photos with supersampler which i abandoned for too long thinking it was broken when i was the one who forgot how to load a film, hunting for Sarawak local delicacy in peninsular land, got carried away by mood swings, laughing my heart out at a story of dreaming bout a pig's snort, laughing my chest out on the ambition of being a forgetful futuristic guy, it is all worth it. each incident is worth the feeling. and now i am smiling with my liver :) :) :)
