Cut my hair!


Well,my fringe,to be exact. Used to have longish fringe, now cropped short. Dunno what the style is called, I'll refer to fashion mags after this.
Clean my room again. Purpose: to get rid of as much stuffs as possible. I discarded 2 large shopping bags full of clothes, some old mags etc.
Then in the middle of cleaning process, my parents dragged me to a relative's house. Fun,fun,fun. Listening to old women gossipping. They said the older I get,the more I look like my great grandmother, who is a Japanese but converted to Islam. Those ladies are going for umrah in September, and they said they'll pray that my mum will get a son-in-law as soon as possible.Hahaha.
Went home,planned to continue cleaning, then spotted a lizard near the pile-up of mess. So cleaning is post-poned. I'm sleeping in the guest room tonight, even though my dad had swept,vacuumed and check all my boxes for the lizard, I'm still unconvinced.I mean,the lizard could be lurking somewhere in my room. It can't just dissapear.
Bob is very "helpful". Didn't even bother to catch the lizard at all. She's more caring towards her spesies. Just now there was a kitten crying outside in the backyard, and due to her so-called motherly instinct, she panicked and nearly climb the grill again to look outside.

Bob's Stunt

Dear bloggy,

Came home from dinner just now and caught Bob up on the high grill in the wet kitchen. Panicked,asked her to come down. She jumped off the high wall, fortunately she didn't break any leg. Well, Bob has a sense of adventure and curiosity. I guess she thinks that by only climbing up that wall and looking out the grill, it's her only gateway to an amazing,mystical world out there, which is my damn backyard. Smart cat.

P/S:My aunt called Bob "Boi." The reason I called her Bob is because it's such a simple name and easy for people to remember and pronounce. Guess I was wrong.

What a boring day

Today,my mum went out with my aunt while I stayed home with my dad. They went shopping for textiles & tudung at Jln TAR n then off to Bkt.Bintang. My aunt's quite funny. My mum told me the whole story abt their shopping trip.
They had lunch at McD Sg.Wang. Currently,McD's promoting Shrek so all their staffs wear green-eared hairbands,similar to Shrek's head.Upon entering McD,my aunt said: "Eh,kenape semua telinga ijau ni?" In a funny way,of course. By reading this,you will not laugh but if you know her all your life and is familiar with the way she talks, you'll be laughing so hard.
At the counter, the cashier promoted Shrek cushions to my mum and aunt. But beloved Aunt is more keen on the hairband. She said, "Comelnye...Nak belikan Nana satu la.Boleh dia pkai kat rumah." Turns out that the hairband isn't for sale.Hahaha.
She bought me a keychain instead. One of those keychains at MPH with yr name printed on it,along with the meaning. The keychain she bought me has a picture of a cat on it (guess that's how people with the name Nana will look like if they're cats).According to the keychain, my name means "Spring" in Hawaiian. I love spring time! The flowers...so gorgeous. Plus, the weather isn't too hot nor too cold. Perfect. My favourite weather. It also says that a person named Nana is creative and has plenty of ideas (I'm not sure about this), open-minded and positive thinker(hahaha..NOPE!), cheerful and has get along with people well(I don't know).
After seeing those rediculous hairbands, my aunt is sooo into Shrek now.She even suggested that I call Bob "Shrek."

Food craving

Lately, I have trouble falling asleep at night. I'd have to play games on my cellphone/put on my Walkman to fall asleep. Last night, it got worse, I had to watch a DVD until 2am I think. Then only I feel sleepy (Should've watch the AC Milan-Liverpool match!Damn!). I think I'm having insomnia.
It's really,really tough trying to watch my food intake since there are temptations everywhere. My parents aren't supportive sometimes about this whole weight-watching thing. They're always asking me what I wanna eat (which gets me thinking and fantasizing about delicious,fattening food). Not their fault though. It's their job to feed me. And they aren't against my diet plans.
Huhu.My food craving is getting WORSE.I even dream about food,when I sleep. Food that I can't eat,of course. And last night my aunt bought KFC for dinner. There were nuggests,fish fingers, potato wedges, fried chicken in one big bucket. I almost drool.

The Wedding Part II

Huhu. Thought that I would enjoy the wedding.
NOPE.
Ermm...the groom is a British guy.
Sorry no pics. Had a bad hair day. Plus the location of where I was sitting wasn't stratergic. Didnt get a good view of the pelamin. And the lighting does not flatter my skintone. I'm too shy to get up and start taking pics of my surroundings.So much for being a pro photographer.

Tips for husbands (taken from the speech of the father of the bride):

1. If you're wrong, admit it. If you're right, keep quiet.

2. Marriage is like an army. You're the general, and your wife is the major. She makes all the major decisions, you make the general decisions.

3. 2 important lines for husbands:
i) "Yes, you're right, dear."

ii)"No, you don't look fat."

The Wedding Part I

My aunt came from JB to attend a course here in KL and the wedding tonight. Afie,my cousin, also came. With a new haircut. Huhu.
Everyone knows that I'm a cookie monster-cum-chocaholic. My aunt(who has totally NO IDEA that I'm on a diet) brought me LOTS of Cadbury chocs. That's really nice of her.
All of us at lunch at Great Eastern.
Had a long chat with Afie. Talked about almost everything. His course, my new course, football etc.
One of the first few things he asked me was "Sape name boyfriend??" Then he asked tons of questions about Yasser and he even searched my phone's picture gallery for Yasser's photos. Hahaha.
Today I realized that I'm really really bad at geography. Few nights ago, I told Yasser that Belfast is in Scotland. He said no,it's in Ireland. I said yes it's in Scotland. Then I checked the world atlas and oops...yeah it's in Ireland after all. The shame!
Latest proof of my lack of knowledge:
Afie told me that Syuk's college is in Muar. I said no, it's in Tangkak. Afie said, "Tangkak tu kat Muar la."
Gosh, I'll have to start reading my world atlas book to avoid further embarassment.
OK, I'm off now. Gotta burn some calories. Hehe. Will update about the wedding later.

Spring cleaning!

Today,I took the first two steps in integrated municipal solid waste management--1)generation/production and 2)storage.

Didn't clean the entire room though. Just my closet and drawer--where there's MAKEUP. Wanna get rid of old makeups (and make room for new ones! Hehe).

I'm being ruthless this time. Makeups that no longer suits my skintone(I'm a few shades darker before) or makeup that has already expired (eww!), I just chuck them away. Even though those makeups are from Stila, Shu Uemura...bloody expensive!

But what's the point of using things that had already turned gooey and has a distinct odour right??

But not everything goes to waste though. I do RECYCLE. Apparently, my mum likes bright lipsticks so I gave them to her (Wonder why I even bought those striking shades in the first place!).

So that's it for today. I've done my part. The last few steps in MSW (collection-->processing-->disposal), I'll leave them to other people to take care of it.Hehehe.

A bit about myself


Hi, my name is Nana. I'm 20. Loves watching football. Blogging seems to be my latest passion now that I'm on a long holiday...yipee!! I have the most amazing bf ever, his name is Yasser. I love him SO MUCH.I'm not a pro at photography (yet!) but I can't live w/out my beloved camera. Expertise:language,I can play a little bit of keyboard (a terrible rendition of Fur Elise...hahaha),I have a good memory(LOL) and I'm a good listener.My other talent is that I'm able to converse in cat language. Talk (or rather,mews) to my cat Bob and she seems to understand me! No language courses required, I'm a natural!

Shoe-shopping


 


Yana wanted to go shopping, and since I've been doing nothing these days except watching My Wife & Kids (it's hilarious!), it seemed like a great idea. Besides, I wanna avoid all the noise of renovation and listening to dangdut all day long.
Went to Sg.Wang,BB Plaza,then Lot 10 and followed by Jusco Maluri. Mission? A pair of Vincci shoes. Mission accomplished at Jusco, it was a gorgeous metallic pink pump shoes.
Btw, can't wait for this renovation to end. Even my cat Bobcute is annoyed too. She doesn't get enough sleep.
P/S: The 2nd last pic...it's actually a blurred pic,but looks artistic to me.

What a boring,boring day...lalalalala

Went to KLCC. Bought new set of contacts (I'm using Soflens38...hahaha...anyone interested to know?No??Err OK.Sorry). As usual, waste my precious time watching tv. Either that or playing sudoku. I'm ADDICTED to sudoku!!
Am worried about next semester. Taking 16 credits!!Huhu.Actually most people will think 16 is nothing bad. But for a lazybum like me, 16 is unbearable =(. But I have no choice. Err...and I don't wanna start thinking about the subjects I'll be taking. DE!! Gosh...I haven't done any maths for 1 semester!! Help!!

Finallyyy!!!

Yay! Finally got a blog. Hehe.
Always wanted one. But no time.

This blog is a record of what goes on in my life.Nothing personal,though.If it's personal,I won't be writing it in a blog and publish it for the whole wide world to read. Right??
