Britain's Got Talent!

Yes yes yes, its a reality show.
the winner of this show would actually be able to perform in the Royal Variety Show, with its VVVVVVVVVIP guest, Prince Charles.
so the winner?
George Sampson.
Who is he?
a 13 year old breakdancer.
and he danced to a song which i absolutely adore!

Bear with the video.. the few first minutes is filled with sappy stories on why he should win. theres some of the judges comments too.. heh, ignore it.
just watch his performance.




Now, i bet u didnt expect the 'mock' rain heh?

but the song! the song! i knew it was a song performed by Gene Kelly-Singing in the Rain.
but this particular remix, ive been searching for it.
ever since i heard it 3 years ago, in the VW Golf car ad.
i mean, it won the year best commercial!


Gene Kelly-VW GOLF car ad

like.. seriously.. u dont feel like getting up and dance?
well, that is just ridiculous!

neways, this was my perfect Saturday!

Ps: i wished Signature woulda won tho!

Hurt


Johnny Cash-Hurt

I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here

what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

Its a bit gloomy isnt it today's post?
It was suppose to be a quiet sunday nite,but the telly was showing 'Walk the Line'
i remember watching it years ago, and i remember watching this video back then.I remember watching the video and seeing the sadness in his eyes. If iam not mistaken, the video was shot 8 months before he died. he also died 4 months after his wife passed away.
Looking at him, uttering the words 'what have i become?'
its sobering.he clearly seeks forgiveness for all of the things he has done..

and watching the movie, i gotta say. For him to go cold turkey off drugs, just brilliant.
how often and how many people are brave enough to do that? i mean, not just drugs.. but all other addictive things.
how easy is it to go cold turkey off ciggies, shopping, spending, alcohol, self-destruction etc.
its not. i havent done it (my spending is waaaayyy tooo addictive).
so here iam, laying on me bed, listening to him saying over and over again..
'what have i become'

i think it prompt me to think.. when iam all old and wrinkly, i would like to ask myself 'what have i become' and i hope to answer it will all honesty and with no regrets,
'i have done everything i wanted in life'

goddammit, what is it about sunday that makes me thinks of all this grown-up stuff?
and the freaking wind outside!!!!!!!!!
i swear, if we wake up to a clear road, i will personally go down to help me aged and volunteer myself for a week.
heck, its not like i lead a busy working/studying life now.

but then again.. tonite.. after hearing 'hurt'
i feel like i need a good cry....


Thursday 22 May 2008

to quote melin :)

Tuesday 20 May 2008

freeedddoooommmmm!

its a bit over the top,but yeah.
the light at the end of the tunnel? well.. iam at the END of the tunnel..
and i think i have done well.. all assignments were submitted on time, and so was my presentation.. but heck, i think i dropped in some freestyling facts, and iam not sure if it was right! hahahahaha
no biggie!

so,
today, since iam not slaving away at work or working my brain out for the uni work.. its chill out day./.
long deserved... but yeah.. chill out day...
i hadnt had a chill out day for a bout 3 months actually.. since my term started.. no biggie..
iam sure there are others that are going thru worse things than me..

its domestic goddess day.
iam gonna do some baking.. a hell lot of cleaning.. and watch a dvd..
:)

i like chill out day..

yesterday was tough with an a exam paper, one group presentation and one individual presentation...
i went early in the morning.. and came back late at night.. the uni was still buzzing with life when we left..
on the train home.. i realized just how tired i was and i started to think of my brothers and mum..
i cant imagine how tired they are when they slum back home..
a whole day of driving back and forth to courts, a whole day of dealing with pesky students, a whole day of dealing with some dramatic patients and a whole day dealing with ungrateful staff..
and when iam at home.. they actually take us out for dinner.. that means more driving bla bla bla.. that like.. hard work u know.. and to wake up the next day doing it all over again!
i think iam going to make more of an effort to help em out now.. i mean.. not with work obviously!
but with food! :)
i mean.. a full tummy just helps dont they?

but. yesterday also show me how some lecturers are just plain idiots.
and thats not a good thing..
u lose ure respect.. and hell, u find ureself being utterly rude to them..
and i just realize..
ALAN!!! u help ure students tooo much!

heck, i wish my brother was MY lecturer!
can u imagine the cookie points ive gained?

its sunny outside...
makes a change...
hell.. iam obsessed about the weather arent i?
its because..ure day depends on good weather..
sunny means smile, happiness
rainy/cloudy/windy means a whole day of grouchiness

this is another thing i discover about myself..
some people shop when they are just depressed and need a lil bit of pick me up.
iam the total opposite.. when iam happy.. i tend to buy a whole shop..
ask ezu and amy!
yesterday i was in cranberry (spending average about £5)
i came out of the store with £15 worth of chocolates, nuts and dates!
and i came home with 2 books too..

yes yes iam a shopaholic :)
but heck, verbaholic showed em yesterday with her presentation heh?

have a wonderful day everyone!

ps: oh pls pray iam not gonna burn my cake.. AGAIN!

Friday 16 May 2008

Tuesday 13 May 2008

No worries!

but yes.. i woke up, not worrying about anything..
because today is my chill-out day..
iam not working.. iam not doing any assignments (eventho i have like.. a presentation slide to get ready for next monday) and iam not wondering what is the word count.

today is bake a cake day! :)
iam thinking something simple.. maybe a madeira cake..
or apple pie.. apple crumble.. but thats hardly a cake..
maybe a fondue..
well.. we will see...

gorgeous weather this past 2 weeks.. so i might go on a little shopping trip today..
its been ages..

numb butt!

yep.. numb butt
sitting on this chair for the longest hour imaginable.. iam finally done with the assignments.. a whole load of drama on submission day.. but got thru it, and iam still alive.
i hate my lecturer,such a dumb nut, and as annie says.. 'he should teach in the kindergarten'
annie u see.. she doesnt swear.. coz i just told my mum.. 'well.. he is a two face bastard'?
thats simple wasnt it?

everybody was absolutely shattered in class today.. everybody was up till godly hours completing their work.. and we stayed for the group presentation..

iam now dreaming of my bed.. iam dreaming of the soft pillow.. the nite breeze which will put me to sleep in less than 2 second.. for a monday.. it wasnt such a bad day at all

here's to a new week..
without two face bastard!

u know what.. i can barely open my eye lid and iam braggin about this..

iam off now.. for sure! have a good week guys!

ps: sex and the city the movie primered today!!!! u think i can get the spoiler?

Sunday 11 May 2008

pull a sickie?



this day four years ago i landed on a land which i happily call my second home.
and when i leave, iam going to miss it.




i think iam gonna need a sprinkle of good luck tomorrow.

iam positive. yes i'am!

Saturday 10 May 2008

now,here's the weather!~

when u get crappy winter, and even crappier summer, weeks like this week makes ure life an absolute joy.
yes.. i shall be talking about the weather,which is an obsession by now. but if u dont really wanna hear it, there a lil tab on the right hand side which says 'close'

so, yes.. the weather.
yes we are fascinated by it.. a week of sunshine makes us talk about a possible drought, and a week of raining made us believe that it will be a thunder storm coming out way.
but heck, u wouldnt believe it with ure ears if i told u that we have been gettin pretty GOOD weather..iam talking 30C 32C
which is a bloody miracle, considering that 4 weeks ago we had snow.
we didnt even have time to showcase the best of our spring wear, straight on to summer dresses.
it will be short lived.
iam pretty sure of it.
iam in no position to be enjoying this beautiful days coz iam trapped at home or at work. work is work... home is for assignment. my room is like a bloody rubbish tip.
iam praying my printer doesnt run out of ink.

ive completed one of the assignment.. imma print it.. bind it and bloody forget about it till monday, when i have to submit it.
and now iam on the second one. good luck to that coz i have a job of cuttin half of the word down.. i mean.. cutting word are much more harder than making it up. trust me.. give me a topic.. any mundane topic and i might just scrabble a whole book for ya.
this is my knack. i didnt say iam a good writer.. but i just yeah.. i just write stuff.. wait a minute.. i tell people about stuff.

sitting here in the middle of my room (yes, i literally have my laptop in the middle of the room, to balance out the charger connection, and the telephone line) i look around me and i see OCD maniac screaming at me telling me 'imagine how bloody dirty/dusty it is'!

and i made a promise to myself.. tuesday is a spring clean day.. u know what.. iam not even thinking of next week beyond monday. monday is when EVERYTHIN is happening.. so anything else that is goin on next week is not registered in me head.

oh yeah.. taking the driver's test in july. 1st of july to be exact and iam shitting bricks.
the instructor told me to book it up, and he said there might be a waiting list till end of july/early august. lo and behold, an opening for 1st of july!!!

so yes.. iam dead nervous.. but excited.. what else can be more excting than this?

ahuh...yes.. there is.. DR WHO has a DAUGHTER!!!
WHHHAAAAATTTTTTTTT?
so yes.. time lord has a daughter.. if u remember.. last season ended with the death of 'face of boa' and i remembered a line where he said 'doctor, you are not the last of the time lord'
he didnt take it seriously.. but i saw a sneak peak for tomorrows episode.. and he DOES have a daughter.. i must watch it!
so i am thinking.. who is this kid? Ms Time Lord.
but martha is back with the doctor temporarily, and yes donna is still in the picture.. the thing is. i think martha is cramping donna's style..
iam bored of martha.. abit of a whiner,and shouter.

S'alan is a fantastic bloke and the apprentice is bloody additive u know..
nexzt one to go is...
hmmmm.. michael maybe? or alex or i dont know...claire is abit..
blergh.

thats a round up isnt it?
i must be off to bed.. tomorrow is an early day..with assignment the whole day and then off to work..
yeah.. we gotta work.. what can ya do?

cheers fellas!~

Monday 5 May 2008

during the day I.....

and so, just like that, bank holiday weekend is at end
the weather was absolutely brilliant, a taste of spring is upon us.
saturday was work, badminton, gardening and touching up on the assignments.
sunday was work, badminton, gardening AND touching up on the assignment.
today was sleep-in, cooking, driving class, baking AND touching up on the assignments
with all the assignment touched up, u would think iam done with it ritE?
nope.. far from it.
iam so stressed about it, i actually dreamt of mrs C yesterday nite.
i swear i make MYSELF laugh

i should be a director.
god knows i have the imagination.
ask me friends, they'll say the same

on a lighter note, the instructor told me to book me test, and the earliest date i could get was 1 july 2008. so.. yeah..iam ready ahuh!

baked a cake today
was a complete 'mare.
1st up, it was too sweet. was suppose to use caster sugar, but instead, i used demerara sugar.
and when i had to turn it out from its tin, the cake when.. 'plop!'
ruined!
heck, i just topped it off with some Cornish ice cream.
and dessert was done.
will post the recipe tho, coz even with all the disaster, it was brilliant! i might do it for Eid.
its real simple, and doesnt use flour! :0
yessss! that wat i said!!!

ive come to realize how ignorant people of the world are.
its a bit sad.
i watched the last king of Scotland yesterday, for the 3rd time.
itts amazing how all those things happened rite under our nose.
iam not surprised i guess.. it was 1970's
and its 2008 now.
its still happening

i would love to visit bhutan one day actually.
how did i come to know about this country?
i remember when i was a kid, my brother use to tease me.. 'ure from a country named bhutan' u know how kids are.. we say mean things like 'father and mother found u in the dumpster!' (and no, my brothers never said it to me)
we use to try and figure out the most embarrassing country name, and just tease each other about how we came from that country!
nvm, so yes.. thats how i discovered about bhutan.
then it came into light when i was looking at the map.
iam ignorant too, i wont lie. i didnt know that morroco was in africa. i always thought that it was in the middle east. and ive always thought malta was one of the Caribbean island. never thought it was in europe.
and hell, i didnt even know that finland neighboring country was russia.

i guess, we all have our moments heh?
i dream of travelling the world, doesnt look like its gonna happen. but i will keep on hoping, and i will keep on dreaming and i will keep on trying to make it happen.
after all, isnt that the least we can do?

i wonder how many parents out there let go of their dream because of their kids?
i wonder if my mum ever wanted to travel the world.
i never thought of what she wants. iam learning tho. iam a spolit brat, iam trying to change.
wait, whats wrong with being a spoilt brat?
my family never complained.
my friends doesnt.
nor do my boss.

fark it.
iam spoiling myself tonite.
with a hot cocoa, window open, and the kite runner.
second time around.

bless, life in the end is pretty simple.
do things that makes you happy.

Sunday 4 May 2008

musical sunday-de stress time.


the guillemots- get over it

its scary isnt it?

:)
iam swearing like a bloody soldier, its unbelievable.

its musical sunday.


the ting tings-thats not my name

but then again, some of the songs that has been playing in the radio, totally go past by me. like this song here.. ive been singing it for weeks! WEEKS. only bloody today i found out the artist and the song title.. how did i find it? googled the bloody lyrics! i love it when it all goes to plan!


script-we cry

and this lady, she is 2008 IT girl innit?
neways.. i get fooled by this song.. EVERY SINGLE TIME!
listen to the intro. sounds 95% like the intro to blink 182 ' i miss u'
but hey, i still love it when this comes on.


adele-cold shoulder

i should go to bed.
i should.. no point worrying about the assignments.
iam gonna be dead anyway.
so better have a good sleep before hand heh?

human kind continues to amuse me.
