I was happily surfing Jay's Blog(gay guy, chinese malaysian, in london. LOVE IT!!) while planting my butt on the ceramic throne - a thing I ALWAYS do to save time. But I usually end up overheating my laps and suffocating my butt cheeks.

Lie Yuen messaged me on msn while I was in the toilet.

yuen says: comfrotable or not sitting on the toilet bowl

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
hahahaha

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:

After typing that, I massaged my head, leaned back...and..oh shit...!

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
F*CKKKK 

(sorry, my daddy say I cannot swear on my blog anymore. ;`( )

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
after i typed that i tilt my head back and my hairband fell into my pail!!!!

yuen says:
hahha i heard it


*i hate making errors with the texting. Should've been "look at IT this way."

yuen says:
awe.....n it's full of panties or wash ady

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
hahahhaa yau mou...one pantie only.

yuen says:
aiyerrrrrrrrrrrrrr hahahahhahahaha

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
lol whaaat....stupid hairband will be hanging on my doorknob

Miss Lai, you are having diarrhoea again. Please cut down on the ang ku+paddlepop+mamee+strawberry milk concoctions. says:
sorry for being disgusting

yuen says:
hahahhahahhahaaah it is ok....i got use to it ady

At this point, I got up, put my laptop back on the floor and do certain other activities that a girl would be too shy to say and then flush the toilet.

yuen says:
oh done?

This is what happens when you share a toilet. She can hear EVERYTHING! Shit drop also can hear la hah? ;)

And I think it's only wishful thinking to say things like, "Haiyah, puberty is like that one lah."

I'm so old. I'm 19.

it's been quite a while since I've blogged in a rambling style but I'm hungry. I want Kentucky Fried Chicken. Probably Lie Yuen and I will head to Tesco later to go have some chicken.. but KFC chickens can never taste as good without a good glass of ice-cubed pepsi.

Like most of your mothers would have told you, "Don't drink cold things lah! Later stomach pain,".

How leh? Cold glass of soothing caffeine goodness with high calorie content or floor-wriggling-tears-streaming-gut-wrenching-pityful-screaming stomach cramps?

....

Women these days have to make such difficult choices.

Before we launch into my trademarked torrent of photos, I'd like to share with you some conversations in uni recently.

During our physiology lecture, a classmate asked, rather cockily, "SIR! Why do the corticol levels rise?"

And the lecturer, in a very professional voice, said, "You go to this website...(he always says this when he gives us extra information.)....www dot G O D dot com."

HAHAHAHAHAHHA. So sarcastic.

But I still don't know why corticol levels rise.:(

On Friday, Sheena, Lie Yuen and I were talking about how we've started to recognise the cadavers' faces already. It's like, "Hey! It's that guy again! Long time no see!" Apparently the medical students have given names to the cadavers. Quite affectionate ones like, Yucky, Smelly, Hairy, Icky etc.

Sheena was talking about one of the cadavers and she was like, "You know laa.. the one with the earring that one. I bet it's a woman,"

I LAUGHED LIKE MAD. "What?!! HOW COME GOT EARRING ONE?!!"

Lie Yuen said, "You never notice meh? Got laaa..but rusty already,"

"HAHAHAHHA Ewwwww..why like that?!"

Sheena then made me laugh somemore when she said, "But I bet it's not the 3 for RM10 one la..."

HAHAHAHA..ew.

Only in my university will you have students gossiping about cadavers.

Alright..! Time for photos!

As most of you would know I am on a tight budget(though my father will scoff at me and say, "YOU CALL THAT TIGHT? YOU WANT ME TO TIGHTEN SOMEMORE!?"),I can't do much here in Sungai Petani. However, I've been to a couple of thrift stores around the area.

I came across this rather adaorable Hello Kitty FM radio. For only RM7. What to do? Most kids these days got Mp3 players and iPod, I only have Hello Kitty FM radio. It's quite a sad sight lah, what with the Hello Kitty's head sticking out of my pockets and the pink ear phones that goes up to my ears while I walk around getting from classes to labs and labs to classes. But if I am happy, that's fine. I now listen to a wide variety of English, Malay, Tamil and Chinese stations.(What to do, faulty scanning button). 

Isn't she just adorable? She's got a keychain connected to her ear too!


Speaking of Hello Kitty, I've got a little lame joke to share.

Doraemon was walking down the street. Doraemon saw Hello Kitty from a distance and said, "Hello!!" .. How come Hello Kitty never say hello back to him? Doraemon was quite sad.

Com'n! Guess why Hello Kitty cannot say hello back to Doraemon!

...

Oklah.. because Hello Kitty got no mouth! HAHAHAHA.

So Hello Kitty was quite sad that she cannot greet Doraemon and things like that, hence she went to do plastic surgery and now she has a mouth!

After a few days, she saw Doraemon walking on the streets again and said "Hello!!" .. How come Doraemon never say hello?

*go to the bottom of this entry for the answer.


Taken from the Japanese restaurant at Lagenda Heights. Love sunsets in Kedah.


Japanese roses are pretty...


..whereever they are. :)


Remember I told you about the jetty near my place? And yes, that IS Gunung Jerai.


Buttercups before the jetty.


Looks like a Dawson Creek's kinda thing. The setting, not the person.


I feel..so.. boring, taking such touristy pictures.


A canoe would be good eh? But the lake doesn't smell very pleasant.




Looks like something out a love story anime comic. :)


Lishen.


Decided to play around with the "Yes? You called me?" forlorn look.


My turn! :D

ahhh.. finally we had time to clean the garden up a little. At least it looks presentable now.


See? Much better after cleaning right?


eheh. The banglos near the jetty were quite pretty. Decided to fool around la.. cannot ar?

No, none of these were mine. I am too poor.


It's the rainy season up north and bugs are invading after the harvesting season of the Malaysia Rice Bowl. So the damn bugs got to look for new homes. I swear those little mofos are made of tough keratinized shells. They rain all over my notes(while I am reading them) and then the bigger ones fall on my metal bed frame making a ping-ping type of sound. You know the type where lovers throw tiny pebbles at their sweethearts' windows? Like that la.


One of the worst places to get mozzie bites.


Random photos, lying down on Li Shen's floor googling for the elephant man.


BWAHAHAHHA. Did you get a heart attack when you saw this picture? I know I look super retarded here but everytime I look at this photo I can't stop laughing because I look SO bloody scary!


To achieve the effect, it's just a matter of rotating the photo 180 degrees.


Our freezer produced too much of frost. We wanted to see if we can achieve the snow-falling effect.


can see abit la right? And I am also wondering, just like you, why is my pimple still there. Maybe it is cancerous.


Many thanks to Li Shen for pouring snow in front of me for the previous shot.


Does actual snow look like this? I won't know...:( I've never seen snow before. ;( :(


My favourite ice-cream.


Sorry folks, just trying to clear the unloaded recent photos from my folders.

*and the answer to my lame joke would be: Because Doraemon doesn't have ears ma.:)

Don't you notice the barrier? With guys, friendships are so much easier to build. More jokes can be cracked. More things can be said. Or maybe that is flirting?

Girls take far more time to warm up to each other and most cliques were formed in secondary school, taking an average of about 5 years. Not all girls are fun to click with. Some of them cannot give you the reactions that you are used to, and sometimes you cannot give them the reaction that they are used to. Now that is a problem with wavelength. If you're not on the same frequency, it's downhill from there I'm telling you.

First it starts off with the over polite replies.."Really?!! Wow... Issit? Ohhh!! I see i see..and then..?! Ohhh..ooohhh!!! Ooooooo..so funny!! heeehee!"

Then it dwindles off to the polite smiles...*thin lipped grin and slow nods of the head with eyes wide open to show "excitement"*

After awhile, the things they do tend to get on you. Then that's when the gossip starts. Bitching and backstabbing, inevitable.

But don't think that it stops there. Girls are like walking emotions detectors. If someone is being remotely cold to her, she can sense it. First she gets just a LIL bit upset about the sudden coldness...then she finds fault to get angry at the OTHER girl.

Now we have moved on to the evil glare. The two girls have stopped talking to each other. Extreme cases involves nudging and pushing(I have been guilty of it... back in form2, there was this girl who rolled her eyes at me and I pushed her and said, "You think you damn great la now?"..my goodness, I'm such a bully.). The more daring the girls get, the more bitch comments you can hear being thrown back and forth. Just yesterday, Vinnie and I accidentally grabbed the same piece of notes from the stack of photostated notes. After a slight game of tug of war, I won (pulled really hard) and she gave the extremely spiteful JELINGAN MATA.(the motion of closing your eyes for a second or two before sweeping your glance sideways with anger-filled eyes.....a technique all girls have mastered since kindergarten. No shit.)

But those are extreme cases of soured friendships between girls lah.

It is usually problems with differences in wavelength. The more civilized girls usually don't really indulge in conversation with each other on a regular basis. Only when you bump into each other do you force yourself to make small talk. This is when the over polite replies and over polite smiles come to picture.

What about the over friendly girls? I have been told that I am too friendly sometimes but I don't think so. I am just good at making small talk and sounding interestingly interested when I meet people for the first time like throwing in questions about themselves.

There have been more extreme cases than me. Some girls have to know their limits. We're not that close yet, do NOT invade my personal bubble. A few months back, there was this girl who would link arms with me and then stroke my hair. I've barely spoken more than 10 sentences with her before. Not acts of lesbianism lah, don't worry. Just all this touchy-feely things that most girls enjoy. Heck, even with my childhood friends(my multicontinental(is there such a word?) dahlings who are all over the world) and I link arms only when we are extremely high or when we need a hug or two after a bad day. Different cultures I suppose. Especially if those girls are not clickable, arms linking and hair stroking will only make me feel like bashing you in the face. Then there are those girls who speak to you like they are trying to seduce you. LIKE HELLO!! TUNE BACK YOUR FREQUENCY! YOU'RE TALKING TO A GIRL NOW..NOT A GUY!

This reminds me of a girl in national service. You know la all of us get so sweaty at the end of the day. She was already annoying in her own right, very irresponsible, always hungry hence acting damn kesian by staring hungrily or licking her lips resulting in us offering her our biscuits and she had a couple of teeth missing to add to the overall picture. After a long sweaty day, the girls would hang in the dorm and start gossiping about the other girls in the other dorms... and then she will WANT to know what we're talking about(she usually gets left out..kesian)..she would nudge and say, "ehhhh apa you all cakap?" at the same time taking her index fingers to exert force on your forearm while dragging it down so that it flicks off at the side. THAT IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF OUR SWEATY FOREARMS AND HER STICKY FINGERS. EW EW EW EW.

To click well, girls have to:-

1) have the same sense of humour.
2) despise the same people.
3) adore the same type of guys. (it's nice to bond over a good gushing-over-cute-guys session) But this can backfire as well when the girls fall in love with the same guy. But that's another story for another day. :D
4) the same interests. (ie. nail arts, blogs, tv shows, sticker collecting(abit risky...too childish a hobby to build a good friendship over), dogs, same perversive minds etc.)
5) have similiar attitude (ie. Loud girls HATE quiet girls and vice versa)

Here's an interesting revelation:

We've all come across girls who have crushed on the same guy. It is more complicated when the girls are already great friends to begin with. Fortunately for me, I've only been involved in only ONE similiar case and it wasn't even that big a deal, so no problems. But there are girls who were already not on the same wavelength having a crush on the same guy. Now that's when the extreme bitchfest starts.

I have been guilty of farting in the face of one such person due to my extreme jealousy wayyyy back in secondary school.(She was standing behind me on the staircase).

But I have gotten my fair share of bitch-bullies as well. Back in form1, these few girls will nudge and push me and say, "Bitch. He damn bad taste etc etc.". or scream at me from two blocks away, "(name of guy) GOT DAMN BAD TASTE. BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!". Luckily I'm not so stunningly beautiful to receive this kind of treatment year after year.

But girls will find every possible reason to launch a full on I-hate-you-you-hate-me campaign when they discover that they have a (current)boy in common. It's quite fun to release the tension that way. But you kind of grow out of it. Or maybe you don't? I'll need some input from those with ex boyfriends who have new girlfriends. Fortunately, I have not experienced that kind of scenarios. :) Even if you don't like the boy anymore, the hatred for the girl still lingers on. It becomes a habit more or less.

Guys are easier to befriend. The noisier ones can be handled by trying to outdo their crappings and then you come out the winner(after managing to shut him up), and everybody has fun.
The quieter ones, you just try to tease him until he blushes, you come out the winner, and everybody has fun.

Not same with girls leh. The noisiest one will scare you into submission. The quiet ones will annoy you with the shy nods and silence.

But when you do find a girl whom you can click with, it's SO much more fun then a semi cute flirt-worthy new guy friend.
