That Scarecrow Girl

Had that much needed break from monotonity(yes, I don't care if it is or is not a word.*looks at you challengingly*).

Went to McD's in SS19 with Mel, Esther and Hsien this afternoon just for ice cream! I know, ice-cream at McDonalds? We're not rich enough these days to frequent Haagen Daz, Baskin and the likes.

The kiamsiapest of all kiamsiap McDonald's customers are actually the four of us. Between the four of us, we shared ONE McFlurry, ONE ice lemon tea, ONE Coke, One large fries, ONE medium fries, ONE Ice-cream sundae. Oh, and heaps of those free pepper+salt+tomato+chilli. Well, as long as moolah is saved, I'm prepared to even swirl my bra on top of my head and say, "Heyho, papaya milk is the way to go."

Was great fun making each other laugh our asses off. Take for instance Su-Hsien's narration of her friend Li Suen's reaction when they finally discovered their subject teacher's full (indian)name.

The poor guy's name is Gobinathan Muthusamy Marimuthu. Yes, I know he has names enough for three Indian men. Hahahaha.

So Hsien's friend Li Suen proceeds to recite his name and claps her hand at every syllable. LOL. I was falling off my chair laughing at the way it was said. LOL. She clapped her hands at every syllable because it was so catchy. HAHAHAHA.

I was telling the girls about Su-Chien's big reaction when she saw split ends on hair for the first time in her life. On my hair, by the way. Her eyes opened big big and she peered closely and inspected it at every angle while making in-awe sounds.

I then lifted up some of my hair for the girls to see and how was I to know that there were two other jakuns who have never seen split ends in their entire lives either.

Am I the only one entitled to unfortunate hair?


...as the cowboy rode his horse into the sunset, he stops to admire the way the dried grass along the road catches the evening sunlight....

DOESN'T IT LOOK LIKE DRIED GRASS TO YOU? THAT'S MY HAIR WITH MY TABLE AS A BACKGROUND. I SO NEED A TRIM *and* A TREATMENT.

To quote Su-Hsien when I grabbed my hair and piled it on top of my head and said I have the world's worst hair: "At this moment, yes."


Look at that split end! Ohmigod!


And the texture of two strands of hair from the same head!(MINE!).
One so fat, one so thin! What's happening to me?

Then we moved on to happier topics like having almost the entire gang appearing in Seventeen this month! Mel suggested we scour SS19 for the magazine. We were in doubts because, really? SS19 is definitely not the place to go for magazines. As we were walking down the row of pointless shops, I made lame jokes like pointing at the chinese herbal shop and Poh Kong and suggested we go in to check because they may stock them. Then we passed by the one shop that obviously does not sell up to date magazines. It was 7-11. So we walked in thinking that we were wasting our time, BUT HOLYMOLY, they actually HAVE Seventeen!! So the four of us were like 14 year olds again and shrieking at the magazine, tearing at the plastic cover.

We're so happy we appeared in the magazine together! Thanks Mel for working at Seventeen! Almost all the dahlings appeared in the magazine because of some makeovers and Mel interviewing us for that Q&A section. By the way, the question was "Would you date your best friend's ex?"

Here are some pictures from the magazine:


Mel's makeover. Doesn't she look eons sweeter compared to her Fasio ad?


Abby's makeover! Honestly Bby, your own makeup skills creates a better colour for you!


Gaya's makeover!! WoOOooo!

The Q&A Column:


Esther!


Me! Oh god, mine looks like a mug shot!!


Abby again! See? Her own makeup skills suits her better!


Mun Teng!


Su-Hsien!


Liss!


Chien!


The spread.

Mel's cousin!


The one in pink; Mel's other cousin. We were saying this seems like a Melody's family and Friends Special Edition Issue.

On to some familiar faces..

Day In Day Out

*entry updated two hours later. scroll down.

I have given myself the liberty to get some blogging done because for once in nearly two weeks, I've finished my homework.

...

Shitfuck. ;\. Just remembered I have a chemistry lab report to finish. Damn damn damn. Just when I thought I was going to get happy.

I've just realised that I am stuck in a rut. Everything's the same.
I wake up in the morning in the same bed -wait, if I don't wake up in the same bed, it would be something bad, wouldn't it?-, am always on the verge of being late to class.
I will then step into the car with my mum and drive over to pick Barry up and if I am unlucky he will be having his morning shit and we will be further delayed.

Then I walk along that same slightly uphill road that leads to my college either chatting animatedly with Barry or not chatting to him at all(one of those let's-just-shut-the-fuck-up-coz-it's-too-damn early mornings). Then it's that crazy climb up those damn stairs whilst trying to protect my dignity if it's a mini-skirt day.

After that it'd be the long count-downs to the 60th minute of the hour until the class lets out. Then there'll be lunch. We only ever eat in a grand total of 5 places. It's either Mee Yoke, Success, Asia Cafe, McDonalds or Burger King. I can recite the menu in my sleep. Then it's another few count-downs until another day is over.

I then go home with the promise of completing some work or getting some studying done. I come home to turn the computer on only to be entertained by the same websites. I then lie on my back FOR AWHILE. By the time I awaken from my coma, I am usually 2-3 hours behind schedule. Before you know it, it's time for the most exciting part of my day. I turn on my Astro to be entertained by Hongkee actors despicting lives with so many dilemmas I am grateful for not having. I then turn the tv off and will look at the clock and think, "I have procrastination time.".

After telling myself, "in a while, in a while, in a while I'll hit the books," the clock will inevitably strike midnight. Whoopeedoo. *swirls index finger in small circles* I will only manage to complete half of my work(if I'm lucky) before telling myself it's just too late to get anything done and treat myself to the latest downloaded episode of SATC/Desperate Housewives/Joey.

I AM SO SICK OF IT.

Why won't the damn exams hurry up and end? My life is so repetitious I could scream! There's really nothing to look forward to but the end of this misery we call A-levels.

I suspect I'll get an awful hearing from a few of you (especially adults) for not enjoying my youth. How working life will be the pits. How I will hate my 9-5 job. Yeah, so I'll blog about how depressing it is when I work 9-5. As of now, let me blog about how depressing it all is when I'm a (always on the verge of being)penniless student cramming for her big major exam.

Everyday I see the same people. Same faces. We talk about the same things. I look in the mirror, I see the same face, the same hair. I feel like screaming. I look around my room I see the same mess. I move around my small sub-urb and see the same traffic situations. My stupid Windows Media Player plays the same songs over and over again. I read the same websites over and over again. The crick in my back hurts everyday, at the same spot. I eat the same food. I see the same shows.  I do the same things. Is this all there is to it?

I wonder how my mum finds excitement in housework day in,day out. How my maths teacher can bring herself to class everyday to teach us the same equations she thought for the past 9 years. Oh my god. Maybe she has that something called moolah as a motivation. Hm. Yes. I don't. It's just given to me as allowance. There's no excitement in it because I didn't work for it.

No motivation = Boredom = Rut

Bring on graduation! Bring on the first salary! Bring on adulthood! Bring on the live in boyfriend! Bring on The First Time! Bring on marriage! Bring on the grandchildren!

There comes a point in everyone's life where nothing really seems interesting. This is my definition of a rut. *groan*

Maybe it's because I never go out anywhere anymore. Since a few of us left Malaysia, we seem to find no reason in holding outings anymore. It's the damn exams.

Before anyone tells me I'm an ungrateful bitch for the way I am ranting, please have a look at your calendar and match it with the dates from previous months in my entries archives. It's that time of the month again. Shitfuck.

--
I think I've found a cure to my "rut". The answer was SO obvious. I just needed to induce some happiness in me. Drove out to 7-11 in SS14 after dinner and bought this!!

Wheee.. *chomp,chomp*. Of course I'm sharing it with my family. What, do I seem like a pig to you? Don't answer that.

Needing Help From Malaysians

Code red!!

My oldest cousin just messaged me on msn and asked, "So what have you got planned out for Pearl when we visit you guys this weekend?"

Crap crap! Pearl is my cousin's Hongkee girlfriend whom he met while studying in US. I am too bring her out and about to see the 'sights of Malaysia'.

I must be a very bad Malaysian. I can only think of Midvalley,KLCC, Timesquare..etc.etc. Can't I think of anything else besides shopping?

Too bad for me, she's saving her shopping for her trip back to Hong Kong though.

Was thinking of taking the KL monorail and go to palces like Bukit Bintang, KLCC..you know, the Golden Triangle. Will probably end the day with Petaling Street.

Anybody got any better ideas? Any ideas that doesn't involve me driving around KL!

I'm such a bad Malaysian.. -_-".

Hi, my name is Jolene and if there is a question in your head, this answer will definitely answer it: I was wrong and irrational. I was being a woman.


Jolene Lai, Jolene Lai,
Came to life in January and not July,
She is 19 years of age,
Can't wait to earn her own wage,
This dental student is home sick,
Will never be in Kedah for more than three weeks.

Subang Jaya is where she's from,
The only place she'll ever call home.
Has a boyfriend, a brother and a dog,
The things she says can give you a shock.

Especially for her father, who always gets a heart attack when he reads this blog.

Hey, rhymes!
