LOL.

Honestly, Barry should NEVER sit next to me in class. LOL. Happened during my mid term. We made so many disturbing jokes and we didn't pay attention to the teacher.

When we were learning about contraceptions, Barry asked, "What would you do if you were pregnant? Would you abort it?" Without batting an eyelash, I said, "Yes."
"Are you on the pill then?" he asked. Horrified, I said, "NO!". He said, "Well, it gives better skin and it HELPS lessen period pains*points at text in textbook*". I was like, "Erm, don't I have to be having sex to be taking pills?" Well, apparently not. He said he knew people who took it because of medical conditions. So I told Barry, "Well, in that case when I start having sex I'll call you and tell you I'll be having pills. I'll probably be 45 and call you and say, "Barry, I'm taking the pills now." And you would probably say, "Well, congratulations, you're having sex." And I'll be like, "Yes, that is true."." Hahahaha. It could happen you know!

As we were walking out of class, we came up with a conclusion as to why our teacher pronounced penis that way. We decided that it was because he was so used to his nickname for his lil teacher that he sub-conciously said it to us. Heeheehee. Yes, that must be it!

I went to collect my prize from Seventeen in Petaling Jaya today and got Melody to come along with me as I didn't know the way to her old work place. She needed to get her cheque from them too. Small building that, but nevertheless, quite interesting. I even went into the studio to see a Sarah crushing makeup. Coool.

When we headed back to Subang, we decided to go to this cheap shop Mel was raving about. Apparently the accessories there were so damn funky. We spent nearly half an hour there I'd say. Goddamn. Here are the pictures.:) Enjoy. The shop is called MTM and it's in Summit USJ. Took me quite a bit to explain to the Malay sales assistant that by taking pictures of their products I'm actually giving them free publicity and I don't know why.. but when I'm speaking English to someone who doesn't understang English very much, I tend to speak it extra well. It's a bad habit. A strange one. Then I switched to BM and she could understand, but my BM was so rusty I couldn't even understand what I was saying. Damn that B3 for BM SPM. Damndamndamn! At the end she allowed me to roam free with my cameras\. But they were talking about me by the counter, I knew. BUT I'M GIVING YOU FREE PUBLICITY. No, :P, I just want to share these lovely sights with you people. Behold.

A closer picture.


Hoops of all shapes and sizes and colours. RM1.90!! BUYBUYBUY!!


The sweet dangly earrings in plastic bags. RM2.90 and above.


More bangles! They are abit more pricey though. About RM7.00 for one.


Beautiful sweet belts!! RM12.00 or something like that. SO NICE SO NICE!


Nothing I'd wear but I'd use it as a decorative item. Perhaps curtains for my doorway?:)


The usual trinklets. hair clips galore..


OOOOH. Beautiful butterfly clips of the bigger variety. :) I think I'll be back.


The wallets are so classy. It's nice to look, but it's quite flimsy. So what's a girl to do? Why, buy four or five of it of course.:) Only RM5.00. Unbelievable? Believe it. *kills self for being so lame*. *kills self for being lamer with that phrase just before this sentence*.

*will just stop talking*.


These are better in quality. RM8.00 I think. RM3.00 sure makes a world of a difference huh? *looks at Chicken porridge in a new light*.


A vanity case, only for Rm18.00??! I didn't believe it myself. The usual price was RM45.00. It's true, even when I was with Chee Kiang in langkawi last year,we saw one that was nearly RM50. *clucks tongue*. Rare.


My purchases! Sob.. I bought 8 earrings a week ago and today I have another 11 more. Plus two bracelets, a toering and a necklace. Rm37.00. Quite okay. But why the guilt?


I don't know what are these, but they are pretty. Mel suspects tattoo.


Was raining heavily outside. Taken from the road leading out of Giant USJ. Wanted to capture this huge puddle of water. But oh well, the raindroplets across my window is pretty nice too.:)


My prize!! The two tix are supposedly for Aviator. But I don't think they are still showing it anymore. If I'm not mistaken I can use it for any show. A Return of The King Vcd set. And a poster. Who wants the poster? *hugs the vcd set tightly*


The necklace and earring set that was only RM4.90.

 
Candy bracelets. RM1.90 each.


RM2.50.

Mel and I saw some clothes outside Fajar. We usually deem it tacky, but we thought what the hey, might as well. And we were so lucky!!


This pretty nighty was only going for RM8!


RM8 too!!


OOOH.. And an Old Navy(imitation, I don't know?) thick terry-material jacket(perfect for classes) for only RM13.00! In Baby Blue. *smacks forehead* How much better a deal can this be?!

Last night I was in Subang Parade with my family and I bought these beauties. Been meaning to get around to it. Donations proposed by Amanda, Su-Hsien and Shevie are still welcome! And anyone else for that matter! Stumbled upon a DIY earring website and they suggested using Barbie Dolls shoes as earrings. Intrigued by the idea, I decided to go to Toys 'R' Us and YAY, they do stock only shoes! Unfortunately it's for Kelly, but better than nothing. Only Rm6.90 for a set of 6 shoes. I found the earring hooks in Evergreen(SS14). When I'm free enough I'll get around to do it.


Pretty little shoes in rows of keys.:)

I'll share it with you.

It's like reading a behind the scenes journal! No, she doesn't give a blow by blow account of which angle they took that particular shot from, which small town area they used for their grandma and grandson scene in that cny ad or casting calls for her ads.
It's mostly about her struggles as a film maker in this futureless country in film called Malaysia. Her stand against the Malaysian Censorship board. So it's true; the malaysian censorship board ARE made up of old fogeys-retired government servants.

Heck! One of them old fogeys even fell asleep during her screening of Sepet and woke up with a thud(in her words) when his songkok fell on the floor as he was nodding off. Ugh! How rude!

The Malaysian Censorship Board uses this word "the rakyat" as a reason to back themselves up. What utter bullshit. The Rakyat means The People.

I am one of The People. Are you one of The People? Our identification cards clearly states, "Rakyat Malaysia."

Then why wasn't I involved in the process of the censoring of a film?

A bunch of old government servants are NOT the ideal representation of the Rakyat.

The old chinese man who sells Wan Tan Mee in the chinese coffee shop is one of the people. The senior-ish Indian lawyer in that big law firm is also one of the people. The malay man who works in JPJ is also a Malaysian. The Indian man who sells candy to primary school kids is also a Malaysian. The primary school kid who buys cheap 20 cents chewing gum with tattoo(Do they STILL have that?) is also a Malaysian. The chinese hairdresser who gossips non-stop about her customers is also a Malaysian. The chinese business man who does overtime almost every day is also a Malaysian. The young 20-something kindergarten teacher who wipes 5 year olds' vomits is also a Malaysian. The Iban guy who comes all the way from Sarawak to study in University Malaya is nonetheless a Malaysian. The university graduate who is looking for a job in vain is also a Malaysian.
The national service kids are also Malaysian!

I may be studying UK syllabus and heading off to an Australian university but I am one.hundred.percent Malaysian too!! I too had a Malaysian background; I went to a national school for 10 years.

My point is, they do not involve enough categories of THE PEOPLE in their Saints-filled Censorship board committee.

At the end of the day it is through the media where we Malaysians get most of our information. How will we bloom in our mentality if we are not exposed to different school of thoughts?

A while back I heard someone say, "Malaysia is 15 years behind other developed countries." Though this claim may be irrelevant as the topic was about biotechnology. :) But it could apply, you know.

I've always supported the locally produced films/plays. I like it when it is Malaysian. I am sorry but I never touch the 100% malay ones. That is not because of racism, it is because I cannot relate. Why do I support Kopitiam even though it has pass its prime?(Sorry midnitelily(this nice girl works in Double Vision/Vision New Media)) That's because I can relate to the topics. Why Homecoming? Ok fine, that's because it was on Astro WLT and it had Douglas Lim. But the scenes, they were all so Malaysian! I even go to Actor's Studios Plays because the people that get together there produce something that I can relate to. That's the beauty of it.

Poor Yasmin and her fellow film-maker friends struggled so hard to get Sepet out. Cars were sold and savings were almost emptied. But despite her struggles with the censorship board, she got it into the theatres. Amazing feat if you ask me. She didn't blog about the process of getting it out, would have loved to hear about it though.

To quote someone who watched her movie during the screening, "That is not a Malay film, a chinese film or an indian film. It is a Malaysian film." Why, there was even a woman who came out teary-eyed.

If I love her Petronas ads and when she can make me love an ad on a crappy TV channel(so sue me, I am prejudiced in that sense), then Sepet will definitely do it for me.
Like Kar Heng said, it's only 2 hours of my time. He's right! I can study harder after that. So I'll be supporting Yasmin. Will you?
