The day the earth stood still

Went to Alamanda with nana the other day. had lunch at secret recipe. i had chicken bleu and nana had a new not-yet-on-the-menu steak dish. so, we ate and talked and laughed ourselves full. after settling the bills, we received 2 movie-ticket redemptions. WAAA!! Bedariknyer! Tgk wayang free!! So we went straight up to redeem our tickets and opted for "the day the earth stood still", which was premiering the next day. how cool is that?! Keanu Reeves...*drools*
by the way. twas a great movie. could've made a better ending though..tp ok la.

A GRUELING TASK. not for the faint-hearted

Ok. Here's the deal. I'm on a mission. A mission to preserve the art of ketupat-anyaming.

Celebrated aidiladha recently, so semangat tu tiba2 dtg when my roomate, kak just bought some of those daun utk wat ketupat. i was determined. i was set.

With the little help from my housemates....

Tenaciously, i began.

not too bad...not bad at all....

10 minutes later..


ok. i think i got it now..Yep. Easy Peasy!


hrrrrmmmm...on second thought........


BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD PEOPLE!!!!


As u can see in the pictures above, i seem to hv a bit of a fight with the lil creature, hancor dan layu daun2 dibuatnyer.

So i figured i need a new pair of leaves(is that wat u call 'em? leaves??) Since the ones i had wouldn't cooperate..

Here goes.

Chants *I think I can. I think I can. I think I can.*

Darn it! Did i just invent a new ketupat-plaiting method? didn't think the tails are supposed to be coming out from the same end like that. @$^%*^#$%@#!!!

ok. I'm ok. I'm gonna get it. For sure this time. ok.


*GASP!* Need I say more? Who's da man? I'm the man.



Incredible. i know.

Realizing my talent, i decided to try a different kind of anyam.






Aha. I'm goooood.................





Oooohh!!
Met KungFu Panda at alamanda last weekend



I would've hugged him if i could change myself into a kid.
Really I would.

Come to think of it, I was terrified of those huge larger-than-life monsters when i was little.
Ran away from Minnie Mouse once. Hmmph.

FUUIIIIYOOOHHHWAAAIIIICCCAHHHHH!!!

Wah gempak tak tajuk? saje je nk bg saspen walaupon saya percaya kalu orang baca pon mesti tak timbul sebarang perasaan yg teruja atau terharu whatsoever..tp takpe. i mmg seorang yg sgt suka syookk sendiri. dalam pada itu, i jg seorang yg lupa daratan, kacang lupakan kulit dan cik tenggiling. huhu...long story.

it's been quite some time tak update kan? haritu cuti lama balik rumah. sbb kontrak dh habis. ni br sambung blk. kat rumah, nk online pon tak berkesempatan. maklumla...kalu tak jd suri rumah. asyik tgk tv je. alangkah bahagianyer duniaku. pastu dok ulang-alik pg miri sbb tahlil arwah kakek.

o'ol pun br habis SPM so dia pon dgn seronoknyer meninggalkan sekolah bersama-sama kotak2 dn bagasi yg banyak ya amat. (tp blum dpt kalahkan kakak dia time blaja dulu huhu)

hmm...tak lama lg dh nk raya haji. tak balik nmpk gayanya sbb br je blk kan. lgpon tiket skrg ni smkin membuak-buak harganya.

wedding invitations pon tak henti2 coming my way. which my mom responds with a rather curious question...when will the wedding cards be coming their way?? hmm...very curious indeed.

still havent finish reading "a prayer for owen meany". haiiyjjooo...lmbtnyer budak ni bc. mcm tenggiling. again, long story.
