That time of the year, AGAIN!

y'all know already that i'm a TV series freak. it's September now, and it's the start for the new seasons for all TV series i've been following religiously.

so this week, 90210, Greek and America's Next Top Model are back.

done watching them on Youtube.

next week, One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl. and the list goes on.

i've just added one more tv series to my list - 10 Things I hate About You. but the first season just ended this week.

i was checking out CWTV's website and there are three new TV series that i'm so tempted to watch - The Vampire Diaries, Melrose Place and A Beautiful Life.

so if i add these to my list, i will not study!

ok. maybe not to that extent. we'll see.

if you've been reading my blog, you know that i'll be living with Alvin, Antony, and Nadia for this coming uni term. there's an extra bedroom in our flat and it's already been filled. by a British Pakistani guy. yehhh.. was chatting with Alvin and he's already moved into the new flat. the only thing i hope from him is to be a clean guy who doesn't mess up the kitchen. PLEASEEEEE!

i'm just hoping for no Malaysian drama in my flat coz i was in the middle of British drama last term. and oh God it was stressful! i want my 2nd year to be drama free. ok? and also 2nd year to be as great as or better than my 1st year.

oh.. 12 more days. can i bring everyone that i love back to UK with me please??

To Be Thin

i'm gonna make this loud and clear.

despite my very small body, i have no eating disorder.. nor do i control my eating.

i eat like a pig.

i'm not shy to admit it.

but just so my readers know, some people, they thought they know me.... but they just don't.

i have a terribly high metabolic rate.

my weight can decrease easily but to go up... i must be a monster eater.

so if u think logically, in the month of Ramadhan, we tend to eat less than usual, no?

so there's a certain someone said that i lost weight. and suggested i should eat more.

excuse me? you've never lived with me nor are you even close to being my best friend and you have the nerve to say that i should eat more???

this is not me being out of my mind.

but note this, calling someone thin, looking thinner and even thinks that he/she is not eating as much IS WRONG!

infact, thin people eat like a hell lot compared to normal people.

(thin people = high metabolic rate people)

Shisha.. Harmful or not?

back then, Shisha-ing was said to be harmless or atleast less harmful than cigarette smoking. i used to believe this too coz i thought what could be harmful about smoking shisha?

however, recently, people started to tell me about shisha being more harmful than cigarette. and i was like shiieeeeeeeyttttttttt.... but i still don't wanna believe until Aina told me about an article about smoking shisha is harmful. so as i was so jobless working in the clinic today (no doctor, no patients and i brought my laptop) i went on Google to search about Shisha. oh well.. hate to say it, but shisha is EFFIN HARMFUL!!!

I know. you people who love shisha as much as i do are saying "NOOOOOOOOOOOO WAYYY". reality sucks.

from this article that i read, a doctor said that one shisha smoking session equals to 60 cigarettes. read this link people - http://www.yobserver.com/sports-health-and-lifestyle/10011652.html. i've no idea how true this statement is coz another doctor said that one shisha smoking session is equivalent to a pack of cigarettes.

but the point is.. shisha is definitely harmful. so to shisha smokers and addicts, you can either minimise your shisha smoking (say once a month) or stop completely or substitute it with cigarettes (only for those chronic shisha addicts). now option B is hard to do, so try option A first. if ur not even an addict and ur going for option C, then you're a dumbass.

my last shisha smoking session was in April. i'm no shisha addict. just a social smoker. but i do enjoy shisha. am i gonna give up shisha completely? i don't dare say. what i think i would do is, limit to maybe... 3 to 4 times a year?? hahhahah. we'll see. i shall stay away from Curry Mile in Manchester, where there are tons of shisha cafes.. hmm.. no no.. cant do. Curry Mile is like the hotspot for cheap and nice food in Manchester. or.. i shall not go to Curry Mile with shisha addicts.. haaa.. that sounds better.

End of the month rant

Happy 52nd Independence Day, Malaysia!

dunno why i dont feel the merdeka spirit this year. maybe i dont quite like the malaysian politics nowadays. so disgraceful, watching TV and seeing these politicians insulting each other. WTF?

GROW UP! and i dont like the government too. well not a really big fan of the government ever since Mahathir's era ended anyway. no, not a fan of the oppositions as well.

10 days of puasa, DONE! 20 more days to go til raya. and 24 more days to go back UK.

thank God for the long weekend. atleast i'm off work for two days. been tired working 9 hours everyday (weekdays) and unfortunately had to work half day on Saturday too. Saturday was supposed to be my off day. cut long story short, the clinic was short of one worker til end of this week so i replace that person.

________________________________________________

went out with my family after work on Saturday. did a bit of shopping. hooray! and had a good dinner at Bombay Palace.

Sunday... slept til 12. woke up feeling totally lazy but i was excited for that day coz goin buka puasa with Maliq and Syam. Maliq picked both of us up and we went to break fast at Kenny Rogers. kuar dgn diorg dua ni mmg tak sah klau tak mengutuk orang. so there goes my pahala puasa for that day. no.. i'm not complaining darlings. i love love love our gossip session. totally hilarious. then after that, picked up Jaja from SACC (die buka puasa ngan family die kat situ). and we went to a restaurant by the lake. sambung mengutuk orang lagi. as usual our table paling bising kat situ eventhough there were bigger groups of ppl there. ape2 pon, Maliq paling bising gelak mcm pontianak.....and of course... me. i bet the restaurant workers were relieved when we left. watever la. murtabak bukannye sedap pon. harap watermelon and apple juice je sedap. ooohhh.. Syam.. if ur reading, the pics pls!

hope to buka puasa with them plus Shera and any other Petites who are back in Subang next Saturday. =)

today.. stay at home. and Facebooking. and chat with Fran for 3 friggin hours. gosip tak sudah. i think i shouldnt meet or talk to anyone during puasa. really. but no. i can't do that.

*LOVES*

A month

firstly, HAPPY FASTING TO ALL MUSLIMS!!

thankfully, i'm able to fast for these first few days.

i've started working at the clinic near my house since last week. just wanna kill time til i go back to UK. and plus, i would be dead bored at home especially during the fasting month. so yeahh...

ooohh.. exactly a month from today i'm going back to my second home, Manchester. hehehhe. i miss Manchester a lot. but then again, there'll be plenty of things that i'll miss about Malaysia once i'm there.

my friend, Sofiya has gone to US last week. hope she's doing well there.

my sis Dian came back from US last week. so this year we'll be able to celebrate Eid as a complete family. wheeeeeeeeehhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

still need to plan loads of stuff once i'm back in UK.

and i'm excited to move into my new place.

and FRESHERS WEEK is a must this year coz i missed mine last year! grrrrrrrr..

oooookkk.. UK is a long way to go.

i still wanna meet up with my friends for breaking fast or hopefully if they can during Eid. i miss them all!

Miracle

On Saturday afternoon, my friends and I decided to visit our old friend, Azwan who was in the ICU at Sg Buloh Hospital. there were so many people crowding the ICU.. family and friends.

i've never been to an ICU in my entire life until that day. the atmosphere was different compared to other wards in the hospital.

anyways, we managed to see Azwan despite the number of people who wanted to see him. and only two people can visit him at a time.

i went to see Azwan with his sister, Melina. i was brought to tears when i saw him lying on the bed unconscious. Melina told me to talk to him and give him words of encouragement. it was hard for me. eventhough he's not my close friend, there was a point in my life where i got pretty close to him, and i felt so down watching him in that condition. but knowing Azwan, he's a strong young man, and i'm not so worried whether he will make it or not, because i know he will. people said that once u have a blood clot in your brain, the possibility to live is quite low. but Azwan is different. i know he is fighting this to get back to his friends and family. when i went to the ICU, i could really see how special this guy is to people around him. he meant a lot to his family, and of course to us - his friends.

on Monday i got the news that Azwan has opened his eyes partially and he even squeezed and pulled his cousin's hands when she was talking to him. he is not fully awake, but thats a sign. today, i found out that he has an infection in his lung. not sure bout how bad it is though.

Azwan,

I don't think you ever let anyone down in your life so please don't let us down now that you are recovering so well. we're all praying for ur full recovery. and we all miss you!! and please, i'm still counting on seeing you in London!

It happens

a friend of mine met with an accident two days ago.
he is now in ICU at Sungai Buloh hospital.
his condition is said to be critical and he is still unconscious.
i may not be one of his close friends but he's still a friend.
and i was taken aback when i heard the news.
i haven't met him for 2 years now, but he is supposed to go to UK this September and hopefully i will be seeing more of him when he's there.

Dear Azwan Arif,

please wake up! everyone is waiting for u to open your eyes again. u still have so much to do in this world. we're all praying for you. and i want to see you in London this September!

life can be so unpredictable. thats why i think everyone should appreciate and enjoy whatever they have right now. it's easier to wish that you have a better life than you do now, because as humans, we tend to compare ourselves to those who are better than us. but we constantly forget those who are less fortunate than us.
