.:: Memories of the Seven Seas ::.

Mood:

A bit, scratch that,

VERY FURIOUS with the dumb shopkeeper

who turned my rabbit Fluffy,

into an unrecognizable alien by cutting so much

of her fur until he actually cut her skin too.

Pictures later. In a mourning stage now.

NOTE: Never EVER EVER go to this stall called LovelyPets.

More like ABUSED PETS.

Anyway,

I just replied a comment that

I never realise I had till now,

due to all that SPM craziness and stuff.

So here, MR Anonymous,

do go and see the answer to your comment ya?

On the other hand,

tittle of today's post is the memories of the seven seas

is because, well, I was repacking all my discs

in an attempt to label all the blank ones

and I stumbled across this disc with all the

Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch & PURE videos.

It's the one with Ruchia and Kaito?

Yea, anyway, that was like pure nostalgia.

Especially the song 'Legend of the Mermaid'

And now, I've decided to go catch up on all those

episodes of MMPPP PURE that I missed.

Owh well, I'll just watch all 39 episodes.

Poor Ruchia.

And I'm planning to continue where I finished watching

Kirarin revolution.

Can someone please tell me whether

she's finally confessed to Hiroto or not?

I saw a picture of MilkyWay and then remembered that

it's been a while since I last watched it.

Going to Gaaya's house tomorrow~!

It's gonna be so much fun =)

.:: DueL ::.

Mood: Satisfied after completing my duel disc.

Okay fine. This one's for my brother,

but I'm making another one for myself after.

So let's just let the pictures speak for themselves.

.:: Naritai Jibun ::.

Mood:

Finally have time to settle down

After SPM, we went on an almost immediate trip

to KL the next day, then Penang the day after that

and then to and fro to KL ever since.

I am now officially sick of travelling,

which is ironic, considering that when I was little,

I dreamt of travelling in a caravan - thanks

to Enid Blyton influence.

Now, time's just rotting away,

there's like nothing much to do,

except to think of what I wanna be in the future.

I strongly feel I should become a doctor,

given the fact that I don't trust other doctors much

and that I hate feeling helpless when my family gets sick.

I hate just sitting ducks.

But I'm not sure whether I can handle being a doctor.

Theoretically, it shouldn't be much of a problem,

but if i were to do surgery well...

Don't be surprised if I ended up pouring a whole

tub of sanitizer into the patient's stomach.

And right now, I pretty much still can't swallow the idea

of cutting open a dead person's body.

I mean, he's dead, so leave him alone already!

What are they doing out of their graves and in the lab anyway?

But I have a feeling once I get used to it, I'll be fine.

So that's pretty much my thoughts on the road of the life-saver.

Don't even mentioned the 'getting sued big time if you mess up' part

and the guilt that comes with it, even if it was accidental.

Then, again, almost all situations demand that we cannot afford accidents.

Second career considered : Actuarist.

Well, counting probability all day is most definitely my cup of tea

and I love maths like life itself, so I'm guessing why not?

Minus the fact that it's rumoured as 'the toughest field ever',

I've pretty much made up my mind to walk down this path.

If it weren't for the 'feeling helpless when my family gets sick part'

and wishing I could do more.

Okay fine, so I'm being pretty bias right now.

Just because my grandma's being diagnosed with cancer.

And I'm really freaked out worried,

but I'm not going to show it.

I believe in You, God

and You've always given me the best of everything,

and I'm not going to stop believing now.

In a nutshell, I guess everything in life's the same.

If I were to put it in mathematical terms,

its a progression, a simple, readable pattern,

so simple, it confuses us all.

Isn't life such a mysterious entity?

Well, I guess if things were easy, then you'd lose the fun of living it.

So bring on the challenges, I'll face all of you head on.

Just like doing additional math. =)

.:: Here's The Reply ::.

Here's the song and the tag that I never replied to :P

This post is specially for Vigelic. =)

.:: HeartFul Song::.

Mood: I've been feeling more and more like my old self lately.

Looks like in the advent of SPM,

I've been faced with all sorts of nostalgia.

And since I can't blog too much now,

I'll just keep it brief.

Here's a song that I can relate to A LOT

right now.

My Heartful Song - Nana Mizuki

(from the anime Shugo Chara)

誰もいなぃステージ
夢の時間はもう幕が降りてゆく
昨日同じ
明日は二と度こないと気つくの

ラストシーンはいつも切なく美しいけど
涙拭ふいで 扉敲こう

新しい私に 生うまれかわる
緩きを出して 恥ずかしいからないね
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
歌うよ 何時までも あなたに屆けますよるに

いつからだろう
本当の笑顔見せられらくんあった
こんな私を
諦めないでまってて暮れたの

孤独のたてを掲げ自分とたったかっていた
ほら強がりの鎖ほどいて

懐かしい思い出に優しさが
目覚めるように
素直になれたから
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
心を開いて

今　新しい私に生まれ変わる
勇気を出して
輝き津ずけよう
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
唄うよいつまでも
あなたに届きますように

In the empty stage
the curtain has already fallen on my time for dreams.
Just like yesterday, tomorrow will
not come again...I've realized it...

The last scene is always painful and beautiful, but
I'll wipe my tears and knock on this door!

I'll change into a brand new me!
I bring out my courage
without being ashamed!
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
I will always sing
so that it'll reach you!

I wonder since when did I stop showing my true smile,
don't give up on me, you've waited for me!

I brought up the shield of loneliness and fought myself,
but now I release my chains of deceit.

The affection in my nostalgic memories
opened my eyes and
I've become more honest!
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
I open my heart!

Now,
I'll change into a brand new me!
I bring out my courage
and continue to shine!
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
I will always sing
so that it'll reach you!

.:: Running duel! Acceleration! ::.

Mood: Kinda sleepy and obsessed with YGO 5D

So like, its 40+ days to SPM.

And yes, I sorta counted.

And I actually don't know how I feel about it.

And the reason for the null post updates

are cause... well,

I can't find the mood to blog anymore,

because there's this whole list of episodes to watch.

*ahem* and stuff to study, of course.

But anyway...

I've got like a major confession.

And its...

I love Yusei Fudo!!

And I want a duel disk badly

and if possible my own D-wheel!!

(and I want it built by Yusei, just like Aki's!

I can't help going Gyah!! over episode 73-75.

So YuseiAki-ish!!)

but for the record,

I am NOT giving up Atemu.

So there.

P/s:

1. Yusei x Aki is the cuuuuutest pairing ever!!!

2. I might not be blogging till after SPM,

which probably explains the blog being on hold.

But since I'm indecisive, I most probably would

update a few times. =)

.:: MI AHN HAE YA HA NEUN GUH NI ::.

Mood: Glad to be well enough to go online again.

Don't ask me why, but recently,

this Korean song has been stuck in my head.

It translates to Do I Have to Say Sorry?

It's from the K-drama Sassy Girl Chun Hyang.

Quite hilarious story.

Cute ending.

미안한거니 미안해야 하는 거니널

사랑하게 돼 버린 거내 사랑이

널 많이 힘들게 한다는 걸 알면

서도난 너를 보내지도 못하고 있어

이런 날 이해 한다면조금만 나더 운

다고 해도나 용서해 잠시만 더* 아니라고

안된다고내 눈을 가려도 너는 있었고함께

해서~ 아파하며 살아도

그것만으로 행복했어내

두귀를 다막아 듣지 않아도넌 언제나 내게 말을

했고정말 지워지지 않는다면

이젠 차라리 행복하고 싶어

Don't ask me to read that

cause I don't have a clue what it means.

Which makes me consider learning Korean now.

I mean, hey, I can read hiragana and katakana

and a bit of kanji now,

so why not start on Korean?

I have a feeling hangul's way harder though.

Im not even sure how to spell

the few terms i know in korean.

Anyway, I just like the song lols.

And its kinda great to be out of bed

after a whole week.

It was definitely the most

scary experience ever, given the

things about H1N1 going around.

I'm just glad its over.

At least, the fever and sorethroat is.

Now its just left with flu and cough.

And SPM Trials the week after the next.

It's going to be fun,

I promise myself. =)

.:: Debate Nationals ::.

Mood: Happy because of all the people I've met.

(pictures are on Facebook)

As most of you might have known by now,

our team made it to the semis,

so we ranked 3rd together with Kedah

Kedah took around 10 to 11 hours to reach,

and I've never sat so long in a vehicle.

Even the trip to Japan only took 6 hours plus.

I went there on a double-decker bus,

a day earlier, basically because my mum wanted

it to be a less tiring journey.

And truth be told, it was a good idea to travel ahead.

The hotel, Grand Crsytal, Alor Setar,

was quite okay. Not much complaints,

I loved the fact that we each had a gorgeously

big bed all to ourselves.

Banun and Marjan shared a queen-sized bed

and I had a single bed to myself,

but in the end we joined up the two beds.

Food was, okay I suppose.

I guess after the experience of going to

Pasir Salak for public speaking 2 years

ago makes the food everywhere seem completely satisfactory.

And anyway, it really was quite good

(some of the dishes)

I remember eating two bowls of porridge for

breakfast everyday, cause it was sooo good!

(despite the fact that I was kinda nervous for the comp)

(our first team picture :P)

Anyways, our first round was against Labuan.

The motion was THBT Schools Should Increase

The Importance Placed on Co-Curricular Activities.

We went up as GOV for that one.

It was great debating against Labuan,

they were like so friendly!

After the round, it was like we were already friends.

I liked Hani's voice the most,

it was so uber-cute! =)

Thanks to the One above, managed to somehow

miraculously land as best speaker for that round.

Go GOV! (Ishwaar, Me and Banun)

Us and Putrajaya =)

Second round was against Penang,

which happened to be one of my favourite

states to get food from.

Penang curry mee & laksa...! =P

*ahem*

Anyways, motion was THBT United Nations is Dysfunctional.

We went up as GOV again.

This has got to be the toughest rounds of nationals yet.

It was seriously the most challenging one.

The Penang team was really well-informed.

and it was pretty scary (and cool) how they

compressed all of that info and delivered it

at shinkansen speed.

Penang and Us (Complete teams)

No, seriously,

it was that fast that I had problems

writing rebuttals.

But of course, it was slow enough to catch and

we understood every word.

I totally loathed this topic though,

and I think I read more articles than I have in a lifetime

to prepare for this one.

(Which wasn't actually a lot)

The third round was on the very same evening,

against Perak.

Motion was THBT Free Trades Harm the Developing World.

We went up as Opposition for this one.

I really liked the third speaker for their team.

She was just so bloody sarcastic (in a good way)

Well, of course it was dissapointing to lose,

but what's done is done.

And besides, they won the whole competition in the end,

so they are pretty good. =)

One last picture before we hit the Pacific~!

After that,

we finally had time to play around.

We went to Pacific and hung around the arcade,

went to the night market to do some shopping.

(In my defence, I was shopping for dinner cause

I missed dinner)

What I scored for basketball =D

Banun, Marjan and their chocolate fountain obsession.

We originally planned to have the Malacca girls over,

but everyone fell asleep except Grace,

so we did a bit of prank calling.

Okay, so maybe I didn't actually DO the prank calls,

but I tried hard not to laugh.

(which included almost suffocating myself with a pillow)

Eza and the gang came over to prank Ishwaar too,

which I caught on video and will upload ASAP.

The finals was Perak VS Negeri Sembilan.

Motion was THBT Change is NOT Progress.

And it was the MOST entertaining round ever.

With the sarcasm and Obama, Obama, Obama,

it was totally funny.

Funniest quote (In my opinion):

If my first speaker were to dye his hair brown

and wear blue contact lenses,

if that helps him get chicks, Mr Speaker,

then isn't that progress?

And YES, he did say 'chicks'

Me and Labuan team =)

After the competition,

we had our farewells and then we went off to

visit places that we didn't get to visit on the first day.

We went to the Paddy Museum which had this

awesome scenery painted out in 3 months.

Word is they imported artists from Korea to paint it.

It makes me wonder how much more

improvement I'm gonna need to be able to draw like them.

The most interesting was definitely the growing crsytals,

and there was like a river near that place

and I got to see people fishing, like for real.

The man was even nice enough to

let me take a picture of his catch,

a real ikan puyu.

It took another 10 hours before we reached

Kuantan at 2am in the morning.

We stopped by at Tapah resthouse where

I got myself two hotdogs, which I loved

ever since eating three the last time we stopped here

on the way back from Cameron for states.

And guess what? The lady still remembers me.

In a nutshell,

it was my very first and best nationals for debate ever

and even Marjan agreed that it was nicer than

Kelantan last year.

(which I missed because of KWN Nationals)

To everyone that I met there,

thanks so much for the great memories.

Keep in touch and take care! =)
