your face kena langa lorry

yeah so i’ve gotta print out my lecture notes and since i choose not to use my waiting time to attend to my piling workload of crap, i shall announce something that u have all been agonising over:-

YES!! XxXxX is still ALIVE!!!!! her royal highness the queen bee graced me with a short text message which i’m sure strained her already strained fingers clearly tired from messaging her other 83647592 friends who are more important than we are… oh but little-miss-popularity has informed me that she’s doing fine.. so i assume that she’s alive and kicking but no i cannot infer from the exhilarating one line message whether or not she’s watching talking-plant-clone dramas on channel 8.. but i wish her well and hope she’ll remember us when she signs autographs for all her adoring fans.. (yes, its always the frontman of the band that gets all the attention)

 ANYWAY, now that we’ve ascertained that Queen bee is still alive (much to the relief of all the khmer men hoping to procreate) , let us go on to more important topics.. namely me and stuff i wanna tell you guys…

Ting u wanna come to aussie eh? that wud be awesome but i wud definitely not be there this december cuz my term ends early november and i wud probably be home by then.. however i do noe that i’ll still be around in sydney come december 2009 cuz i need to do an extra module… and woman, i thot hawaii was for our graduation celebration (because we wud all be flabbergasted by the fact that we actually did manage to get thru college)

azza!! woohoo u’re going to japan!!!!! man just stay away from creepy isolated villages.. you never noe when u’ll encounter half-human half-scarecrow lame-and-lame zombie things ala Kakashi (will there ever be an end to our classic movie catalogue?) and thank u thank u thank u in advance for the prezzie from tokyo!!! please don’t try to fake it by giving me something from kinokuniya.. i’ll understand if things are too expensive there.. just try to still some airplane trays instead..

hey sam.. sorry about adding salt to u’re cat wounds.. u met another guy eh? lemme guess, scuba diving?? damn u need to tell me all about this yo.. hahazZz yes i’m well aware of my Jan 9th deadline.. i’m pretty sure u’re gonna end up treating me.. oh by the way, the smashing pumpkins were AWESOME!!!!! the guy is creepy as hell.. he’s butt ugly, tall and frankenstein-like-stoopy and has the most oversized hands i’ve ever seen.. and he wears a skirt.. but boy does he do the most amazing guitar solos… oh i didn’t noe that it was part of a music festival… i also saw duran duran (hey they’re actually not bad yo).. and modest mouse who was $*$*@&%%$ GREAT!!! they were really really entertaining.. the singer was so entertaining… and i saw HOT HOT HEAT… who were hot hot hot (not lookwise but vibewise) and sam sam sam sam sam, i got to watch the QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE!!!!!!!

’nuff said.

it was really a great yet terrible way to end my week’s break and now i shall sink back into my oblivion. just wanted to share it you guys.

ligana i hope kt tunstall was good (i’m not being sarcastic, i heard she’s fantastic live) and xin take care and take care okay?!?!?!?!

-sharan-

who can FINALLY print her lecture notes..

ok ok so you guys have guilt-ed me into writing a post (yeah right, i’m just procrastinating) and i need to yell something back at sharan:

OMG I HATE YOU STOP BRINGING UP THE FOO  FIGHTERS SMASHING PUMPKINS THING! we only have like KT tunstall here lor… (ok dont kill me liyana-the-no-1-kt-fan but she’s completely different from the foo fighters and sharan-the-meanie is just rubbing the salt into my cat wounds)

anyway i also wanna tell anyone who still cares about what happened to the chef guy saga (ok i know ting and azza probably dont but haha nothing else better to update la) . well he’s still calling me and trying to ask me out as a friend, i’m totally over him (met an interesting guy recently too!) and he quit his job. said he got bored.

oh and liyana, you did not miss out on anything at all by not going to the comm’s ball. it was so uncomfortable and unnatural with every one acting nothing like how they usually do. guys were suddenly escorting their dates to toilet and acting all proper and stuff. and i know they’re supposed to do that but you could tell everyone were not used to doing it. and the entire table didnt really talk to each other cuz all the guys were so busy trying to make sure their dates weren’t bored (which really didn’t help).  oh yeah and the food was bad too.

but at least i finally saw the elusive EIC who played at the ball, and we went to a jazz bar in dempsey and drank wine. SO ATAS RIGHT? haha ok that’s besides the point i guess.

anyway ting i love your mime clip man.. that guy’s genius. xxiiiinnnn, ligana and azza we have to meet up for our little india dinner soon. and sharan! get an ang moh boyfriend soon so we can go have a nice dinner (found a great pizza place a chijmes) when you get back.. hope you still remember our bet. i think jan 9’s your deadline.

LOVE Y’ALL

i must admit, i really am not fond of this time of year.. feel more sluggish than my usual sluggy self.. must be cuz you guys are heading towards the end of u’re term and FIRST YEAR OF UNIVERSITY (tell me how the hell does that feel?)… and everyone who BOTHERS TO BLOG gives me the impression that they are very very busy…  and me? i’m still in the act of starting uni… its been 2 weeks and they closed for mid session break and easter hols.. tertiery education has done nothing whatsoever to aid them in understanding the concept of “mid-session”… but anyway i noe that once school starts, i am gonna die with all the crap i’ll have to do so i thot i might just blog while i’m free not that you lousy people care…

i must admit, i’ve nothing to say… hmm.. blogging shall be tricky this time. nothing’s happened during the week to sustain an entire entry so i should probably fill you in on what’s happened so far… 2 weeks ago the Roundhouse (our lovely unibar that nus shall never set up due to the substantial muslim population) had its start-of-session party… and then a week ago it held its mid-session party (with the all agreeable toga theme).. all the aussies are scrambling for their last glimpses of sunlight before the winter starts and are therefore overpopulating the beaches like beached whales.. i witnessed this firsthand during my cliff walk from bondi to coogee (which includes tamarama and bronte) so i know what i’m talking about.. ooh and i went to the blue mountains to hike.. its pretty damn fun except when climbing up 1km worth of stairs to get to the start of a cliff (think about the temple we climbed at krabi and multiply that by 100) .. can ting and azza get their asses over here one day cuz there’s this trail tt needs people who can navigate with topographic maps and compasses (uncle sharan wants you).. by the way mountains did not look blue to me.. going to the jenolan caves tomorrow… yay.. 

i must admit that i wish sam the catwoman cud be here with me to watch THE SMASHING PUMPKINS and the FOO FIGHTERS concerts next month.. while we drink two-for-one vodka redbulls.. speaking of red bull, there’s the flugtag happening next month too.. its this competition where u’re supposed to launch a man-made flying machine and make it fly as far as possible.. but most of them just crash into the water.. u can win if u’re funny enuff.. this year there’s “the wrong brothers” and “sneaky sausage system” amongst others.. hahahaha…

i must admit that law and commerce is as boring as hell.. even though they try to make it more exciting by letting you go to various courts to observe proceedings.. so as i sink into this oblivion i would like to tell you guys that u suck but i love you anyways..

XxXxXxX pls do your best in acting and dancing and stop fighting against your talent cuz i just noe that u will probably end up in one of those lame Life! monday interviews where you’ll say u were abused as a child, not very happy as a teen and then u met Jo Nee Dep Apporn the shy half-vietnamese-half-khmer who encouraged you to act EVEN though WE the maroon 5 even formed a ficticious band for you.. gosh u make me sick..

and Sam please tell me how scuba is coming along and whether u’ve bought one of those skin tight suits that u’ll unzip to reveal even more nose-bleeding beachwear before you go meow at the moon and call u’reself catwoman.. u and i will dive those kelp forests of tassie one day my friend… hey the stereophonics are playing a gig at fort canning rite? did u land those tickets? oh yeah i owe you songs too.. will send them to u’re gmail account yo… 

and Azza, wat is happening with you apart from yet another questionable “my-sister’s-getting-married-so-i’m-too-busy-to-blog” ??? i am running outta member jokes unfortunately.. so please take another pharmacy course tt’ll allow me to make fun of the human body.. oh yeah i recently watched the lone wolf and cub movies.. which are sick as hell.. we shld go hunt down Shogun Assassin during the hols and stay away from PolterGay and other brilliant film choices eh? are u gonna go to Japan? hope u do woman, i’m in need of a new camera.. or at least some sorta elecronic device that’s teeny tiny, good deal by cheepomak standards and able to exaggerate the colour green in photos near the angkor wat…

Ligananananananana!!! the blog lives on cuz of you.. its a pity that the rest of our motley crue doesn’t understand the fragility of a blog… its like a bloody bonsai in need of nurturing which it does get from u’re loving hands (or typing fingers) … keep looking for matbeng which i assume will be a lot easier with the exclusive matbeng guide.. i realise i haven’t reserved anyone for you since the days of new caledonian guy.. but its really hard.. there’s a guy called hamish in my law class who dresses like a matbeng (geometric designs galore) but i see no lolex.. i’m sorry.. there are a lotta middle eastern guys i see hanging ard at night but i’m afraid they might bomb something before u’re first date…

ting, i love you a lot and since u’re favourite mime is now my favourite mime too, u are excused for u’re absent voice on the blog.. plus it further comforts me that u will actually be there to read my crap..  hope u’re rugby-training-study clash isn’t to clashy such that u’ll return to singapore as nothing but an exposed oversized brain with new metal limbs on a bruised body.. be wary of u’re little pinky which must be scared out of its mind.. see u in singapore and rmb that if u need an eating companion, i’m a prime candidate due to my own deprivation…

 cheers

-sharan-

i don’t have a lot of time right now, i’m hitting the high point (and by that i mean low point) of the year where rugby, leader training and school all meshes together (and by that i mean clash badly), but i AM reading the posts, and i AM still with all of y’all in heart and mind, and to apologize for not having time to post all that much, i present – my favorite mime.

i’d like to take the opportunity to officially thank azza for accurately describing my dream guy. so if any of you apparently lesbian galzz ever spot HIM, i’ll not worry that you’ll steal him away from me with your beauty and wit. HAHA. i’m just kidding.

but seriously, thanks azza for the absolutely spot on description of my MatBeng. i sure hope i get to marry him soon and produce MatBengs and Minahlians of our own. yes, my life wish.

i decided that the serious mugging shall start now. so, i shall only blog about once a week on this space here. but i think, based on past records, it seems like the nearer to the exams we are, the more the blogposts keep coming in. haha, so see how la hor, see if i can be disciplined enough to abstain from the lure of the computer.

as you can see, there’s not really a point to this post here. EXCEPT THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE TING/SAM/XXXXIN post something up here so that i wont keep visiting langalorry and seeing azza’s embarrasingly true recommendation of matbeng for me. HAHA.

 i still love you people.

xoxo,

okay guys. we have a mission. after listening to liyana’s woes, I have realised that we must find Liyana her half breed MatBeng asap before she turns desperate and lesbian.

Here are some features of a MatBeng to help you spot him: (now isn’t this more fun than spotting mas selamat?)

MatBeng wears skinny jeans with a gold lolex. He has a spiky fringe and sideburns. He owns a motorbike (he’s a Matmotor) and a bicycle (so he can cycle around the neighbourhood with a potong ice cream in his mouth). He plays soccer on Saturday mornings, and basketball on Sunday afternoons. He listens to Indonesian band PeterPan and worships Mayday. He loves watching Anugerah and S-Pop. MatBeng lives somewhere between KampongGlam and Chinatown, and sometimes he earns his income by selling Ramly burgers and blue tape videos from Johore. But dont misjudge Matbeng. He is well educated. He is a 2nd year student NUS. His major is business and his minor is South East Asian Studies and theater. He is also musically inclined, and played for his secondary school’s Chinese Orchestra and Gamelan. MatBeng watches the Malaysian election like a hawk because it concerns both his Malay and Chinese brothers. He fights for several causes too, namely, “Build more basketball courts in HDB” and “More motorbike parking space at Zouk”.

(i tried to post his picture here but the resolution was kinda funny. Some parts of his face were dark, others fair. And i think my scanner messed up his picture too cos only one of his eye has a double eyelid.)

 So please help Liyana find this MatBeng. Or she turns lesbian like the rest of us.

cue coughing sounds. WHY? because the blog has become a tad dusty from all the inactivity going around. so i shall take the initiative (like what a good ex-student councillor will do) and sweep the dust away so that we can see each other more clearly, albeit through our words.

 RIGHT. so what is happening in singapore sharan you might want to know? erm. lee kuan yew blasted us for being complacent. (i have a feeling mas selamat has died) and the world continues to orbit around the sun. hahaha. okayokay i shall attempt to be serious in the update. and the weather has been erratic the past week. just last week, it was raining consecutively for 5 days and suddenly, it all ended and TA-DA the sun came out in full force, apparently trying to make up for lost time. and now, there are days where the sun shines ever so brightly in the morning, and dark clouds just decided to make a guest appearance, after which it rains so heavily, and then, the sun comes out of hiding again.

it’s annoying really. i can’t decide whether to do my laundry or not!

OKAY. now on to frivolous stuff concerning my life. now that i’m 20, i want to announce and make it official to you guys that i’m on a search for a future partner. but i am aware that all of the guys i know treat me as their buddy, so in actual fact, i have zero chance of getting married at this point in time. and i’m angry at my canoeing teammate who didn’t remember to invite to his commissioning ball. HE KNEW how badly i wanted to go such a ball. i do not know why i’m whining at this space here about this absolutely innane and bimbotic subject. but yeah, i really wanted to go! (maybe can meet potential partners there when i’m in my best baju kurung you know!) but sighpies. unfortunately, it is not meant to be, and here i am, stuck in hall, studying french and cursing the passe composse, with no hope of a future partner in sight.

okay, i think the blog is less dusty now. SO. please do not let it degenerate into a piece of useless cyberspace. and this is an ORDER.

i know this is a little early but, bonne chance for the coming exams! my exams start on 15th april and end 21st april. YES, it’s that fast. and then, i’m going to johor bahru to watch the indonesian band peterpan on 26th april. THEN, i’m going to redang for my hall trip on 1st may. so then our indochina trip how? still going ahead?

xoxo,

i’m coming to the end of my first week of school (cuz my fridays are off, haha u suckers) and my lessons have made me wonder:

 i’m reading the world’s thinnest law book and i already wanna die.. why the hell do they need to use a 140 year old case to make a descision on a case in 1976??

i think my accounting faculty is intentionally trying to deter students from consulting them… the consulting lecturer’s name is Pinijsorn Opp Luechaikajohnpan.. i swear they made his name up…

aren’t all lawyers absolute scum?

why is everyone hotter than me?

why must this stupid school sell the world’s best muffins… i simply think they were intended for god and just got misdelivered here…

 The End.

(if only i had such profound thoughts all the time)

p.s. please blog more often.. i’m dying to noe wat happened to the terrorist in spore and if harry potter has visited princeton yet and broke down crying.. BLOG.

hey guys: i just got news that this kid i tutored in econ and math before i left for princeton just got 4As in her A levels….I AM ECSTATIC and want to share the news…no one here knows what a big deal A levels is so you guys have to suffice =D I AM SO ECSTATIC. i mean…this kid was failing almost all her subjects when i got to her…by her prelims she was getting As and Bs in econ and math…and i talked her through her A levels from here…I know i only really did very little, it was really her own initiative and she could probably have done just as well with another tutor, but I AM JUST FLUSHED WITH THE EXCITEMENT OF perhaps having influenced someone’s life in a big way – i mean, grades aren’t everything, but they are a big deal…and 4As is very very well-respected even in rj, let alone for a kid from cj who was failing and getting detention and all that – I am so glad for her.                  at the same time i’m also strangely happy for myself…having done something of some good. i can be so selfish sometimes. this really should be all about her…yet i derive such happiness and self-satisfaction from this. hmm.

Hey guys!!!

so i thought i’d give u an update.. first of all i foresee the lee kuan yew’s health is failing rapidly or something.. cuz that is the ONLY reason i can think of for the seeming conspiracy and fall of singapore’s terroristless peace and non-nypd defence personnel.. a police officer SHOT a guy at the train station??!!!? man, i’m moving to vice city… probably safer there..

wow the orientation was well, long.. really long… like one week long.. the first day was to sign up for things and the rest of the week was for … i dunno wat it was for… oh yeah, making friends.. well screw it, i just haunted the library for the rest of the day and goddamit i love online msn….

my housemates are 11 other americans… coud it possibly get any worse.. there’s joy (frm nyc and before tt china so u can probably guess who she wanted to be friends with..yes, me the unintended sinophile… i will never mention dim sum again cuz i think tt’s wat draws em in)… there’s tanya who i told i was slightly drugged up cuz of my FLU and she i asked me if i was using weed… there’s a srilankan american, i forgot her name; she’s sending all her clothes to the laundermat cuz she didn’t like the way her towel turned out after using our washing machine… there’s michelle who’s srilankan girls’ roomate from school too and who’s relatively nice actually.. and there’s blondie whose name i forgot as well… she parties all day with her american friends at aussie venues to take in the aussie erm.. experience… now her friend is staying over at our house often cuz she’s too scared to stay at the campus dorm for 2 days cuz there’s no one there yet and she claims tt she hears voices calling her name at nite.. i swear…

 there’s heinrich who is very intense and creepy with a HUGE beard and LONG hair like the dudes from like slipknot… there’s Moses and he’s not from the arc and Dan who flirts with everything tt moves and David who might as well be invisible and finally Jonathan who’s black and soo very very gay… for the benefit of u guys whom i love so very much, i found steve urkel on youtube who sounds exactly like this guy.. here’s the link:

(its the guys with the suspenders)

 http://youtube.com/watch?v=tWVX0ciMrHw

so tt completes my house… for the rest of the week i still did some stuff yo…. on wednesday was laughtrack which was like a 4 hour lineup of comedy acts.. it was HILARIOUS.. there were guys from “thank god u’re here” which is the aussie version of “whose line is it anyway”…. so they played games and did skits and stuff… and it had other stand up acts with the headliner Anh Do.. he’s this Aussie Vietnamese… i conclude aussie ppl are relatively funny.. i also watched the O week revue which is like a comedy extravaganza held by the students.. anyone can join the 3 major facs; Med, Law and Engineering and help produce their revues…

so anyway, i thot i has enough laughing but nooooooooooo…. thursday was my law orientation and then i went for Russell Peters!!!! this is my professional critique : HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *breathe* HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHHHHAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyways, it was for 3 hours.. it was exhausting.. anyway it wasn’t just russell peteres… there was his friends ahmed ahmed (i kid u not, tt’s his name) and Jo Koy (a filipino).. u can see the ethnic screening he did when selecting his mates… i can’t find proper clips of the two of them but here’s 2 links :

http://youtube.com/watch?v=pdqRNUSaj5w

anyway there’s gna be world tours of these guys so go check out if they come to singapore okay?!??!??! and check out when i come to singapore okay!?!??! cuz i’ll go nuts without some marooned love and ayam penyet…

okay so today’s the last day of orientation.. there’s an aussie band Grinspoon playing.. they’re pretty damn popular and i dun pay a thing.. i got my name on the reserved list… how cool is tt? i just go to the door and give my name to the bouncer.. yeah baby..

 so tt’s abt it… how did my dear ligana spend her bday??? XxXxXin take care okay??!? sam are the scars gone and have u mutated into a catlike x-man yet? azzzzeeeee is tt hat helping u sleep in lectures? and the love of my life, i cannot wait to see u in july dammit, is there any upcoming rugby tournaments?
