Bye Bye Kavitha

Yang Safia On Saturday, August 8, 2009

On a Saturday I cant remember, all of my girlfriends (those who can make it la) planned an outing so that we all can spend a day with Kavitha before she fly off to Bandung. Like me, she's going overseas except she can frequently go back (as the airfare is soooo cheap compared to mine) and things are easier as you can shop like hell (Bandung being a shopping heaven around this region) and cheaper. We also get to meet the much acclaimed boyfriend of hers, Prem. Nice guy coz we all got jealous~! haha

Location: Sunway Pyramid

Eh?

**This is Kahoe, the guy from Talentime. Yeah, I have a crush on him so sue meh. No wait, before you do. Let me put a disclaimer first. I do not OWN this picture.

Btw, I'd like to take credit for most of the pictures up there. Yes, I took them. With Kavi's camera but thats beside the point.

Random Attack!

It frustrates me to no end when I found out some kid who is younger than me can finish writing a whole goddamn book whereas I, cant barely pass chapter 3. I dont know how they do it.

Now listen to my excuse.

I cant work without a legit deadline.

:)

Talentime and Super Junior

Yang Safia On

I just watched Yasmin Ahmad's Talentime. I cried. It was one of those movies that are just...beautiful. I wish I watched it sooner. I'm going to be just like her. In fact, better. Because her spirit will drive me to be the very best in telling stories. I will become the best storyteller in Malaysia.

Malaysia first then the world. :)

Super Junior occupies my days. My everyday life will not be complete without this Korean boyband. Thanks to them, I'm going to get myself an Asian boyfriend. Mat Salleh boys dont interest me anymore. Acececehh...

A bit ironic when you think that I'm moving to a white populated country and I'm looking for an Asian boy. *shrugs* Hope that I'll find somebody like Hankyung-oppa or Sungmin-oppa or Siwon-oppa or Euteuk-oppa or Kibum-oppa. (@__@;;;)

**So many to choose from!!! >___<

Back in Business

Yang Safia On Tuesday, July 28, 2009

As you all know, I've been on hiatus for awhile since my internet connection was out for almost 2months. But I'm back, with loads of stories to tell!

First off, Al-Fatihah to the ever-great Yasmin Ahmad. Her passing was a big shock to me. I'm sad that I didn't attend her seminar in Sunway back when I was still in CIMP. You are my inspiration and my dream is to be as great as you. Insyallah.

Second, as most of my friends are done with their foundation studies by now, many of my best friends are going overseas. The first ones to go are Kavitha and Muvin. Kavi has been one of my closest friends evar and I miss the days when I just lepak and talk with Kavi. I love listening to her dramas and it's like watching a Bollywood movie. I love my Indian friends, they're like soooooo dramatic. It's sad that Vash cant make it on that day when we had that farewell outing for Kavi. (pics witll be up soon!)

Now for the good news on my part, I GOT ACCEPTED INTO OTAGO UNIVERSITY IN NEW ZEALAND~!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY~!!!!!!!! Actually I got accepted into all the universities I applied to which are, Victoria Uni, Waikato Uni and Otago Uni. But after thinking long and hard (thanks Ma!) I decided on Otago. :) God willing, I'll be flying off in February.

Life as a college student, you know that you are constantly broke. If not, you've just lost a wonderful yet sad part of youth. I'm just saying.

What better way to lift the burden on your pocket by offering to cook as your friend's house.

Step 1: Offer to cook lunch at your friend's house (in my case, Hawa's)

Step 2: Made it sound super fun thus you managed to trick your friend into lending you her kitchen and her food.

Step 3: ENJOY THE FOOD OF YOUR LABOUR AND REMEMBER TO HAVE FUN~!!!

*Me at work; more like cutting apples as the rest cook

*Tuan Rumah Hawa

*The Food!!!

*Syera hugging me while I was trying to get my Mozart on

*Waiting for the food!!!

*Me and Hawa

*Drunktard

*For memories sake, we took this picture exactly like the one

we had in 2007. Now 2009 yo.

Thats the lowdown for today. Bye twits!

Gone

Yang Safia On Wednesday, July 8, 2009

For these past couple of weeks, it has been really hard for me. I have to deal with multiple deaths that are just sooo hard. First of all, I never really had to deal with a death that actually affected me but now it has started.

On the 24th June 09, the kitten that my family saved died. I named her Chombi and it was sooooo hard for me. Because it seemed so healthy the day before it died.

The next day, I bet you guys know who died. I got a call from Shira saying that MJ had died. I thought I was dreaming coz well, I was sleeping. Until she told me to watch CNN and yeah, it was clear that he's gone. For those who know me, I bet you know how crazy I am about MJ. It took me days to actually comprehend that he is gone. *sighs*

On July 7th, the day Michael's memorial-I discovered that my pet tortoise of almost ten years died.

I refuse to elaborate furthur because it's hard. You might go, "they're just pets and you dont even know MJ!" First off, I never dealt with death before and all of them played a role in my life. Although these deaths will prepare me for the real thing. So thats okay. I welcome it. Anyways, this post if a tribute to these three. I love you guys soo much and I still cry for you.

May Allah be with you Michael. And to Chombi and Kiko, without a doubt you are in a good place right now.

Rest In Peace.

Hermit

Yang Safia On Sunday, June 21, 2009

You've prolly been wondering what happened to me for the past couple of days/weeks (I lost track. It might not even be a week for all I know. >_>)

Well, my daily activities have resumed just like post-SPM although with less vigor. Yes, I've become lazier~

Also, I've become more like a hermit since I lock myself all DAY in my room. Doing what you ask?

I'm about to tell you what I do that not even the people in my house know.

a) I'm addicted to watching this show: WE GOT MARRIED!

It's a korean reality show where they have celebrities signed a marriage contract and live a mock married life. Some will fight and some fell in love. It is soo much better than whats on the news today and it makes me laugh~!

b) I'm playing The Sims 2 on my laptop secretly (ABAH IF YOU'RE READING THIS, DUN TELL THE REST OF THE SIBLINGS!!!). I even made couples for my friends and since I'm a pretty good Sim-maker, I have myself married to Edward Cullen (we have a baby named Serena!!), Shaza to Kim Sang Bum-if you watch Boys Before Flowers, he's the guy who played Yi-Jung- (they got a baby girl oso name Kim Seon Hee) and Shira insisted that she wanted to marry Zac Efron (shocker I know) and recently they got a baby boy named Caius. So after this I'm plannin to marry all of our children. :)

I know I'm weird but thats what makes you love me~

So yeah, imagine I'm doing this everyday for 6 months or less.

And I also need to get myself on the treadmill so... >_>

Peace out.

Death of Me

Yang Safia On Thursday, June 11, 2009

Everyone who has worked,studied with me or know me personally can tell how much I love my cat/son, Ginger. He's not the best cat in the world, in fact I think he fails as a cat but he's my baby. And I'm not the best owner/mom in the world so both of us are guitly but the love is there. Futhurmore, Ginger has been with my family for almost 7 years now. Despite his lack of usefulness to the household, he does contribute to certain aspects of our lives like...treating my dad's fear of cats.

Well, a couple hours ago...Ginger went missing. Like really missing. I cant see the huge orange lump anywhere and it was around 8pm when I realized he went missing. I only realized how he's not there in the house when my dad pointed out that the front door was open for quiet sometime. You see, Ginger is a pure house cat and as much I would love to see him run wild-I just cant risk the possibility him of getting hit by a car/any vehicle really,contract any dieseases and getting into fights. Or worse...somebody who might kidnap him. Although my mom did say that it's practically impossible for ppl to kidnap him due to his outrageous temper.

I forgot to mention that Ginger is bipolar. Yes, I have a bipolar cat. Wait, add spoilt too. Once, he attacked me and I had to go to the hospital to treat my wounds. :(

Anyways, I started to look for him with my sister, Sabrina and we were quite panicked. Me, being the emotional one in the family started to bawl my eyes out right there but Sabrina held it in. **I noticed that she cried in her room once we stopped looking.

I was supposed to send Aya to tuition but luckily my dad took over while I look for Ginger. In fact, I think he felt bad seeing how I was bawling my eyes in the dark while looking for my cat that he even drove around looking for the orange lump. Which was really sweet of him. :)

But after 2 hours of MIA, mom heard a familiar cat-howl at the front of the house. Turned out it was GINGI!!! (my nickname for Ginger). What actually happened was that when the door opened, he saw this black cat (we all know that it is Ginger's arch enemy) entered the house and chased him away. I bet he chased it pretty far since I cant find him anywhere close. SO now they decided to battle it out in front of the house. Ginger is VERY territorial and being the only cat in the house, he never really had to share our love before; thus gets jealous easily. In fact, to prove my point...bring over your cat to my house. I'm sure Ginger will pwn-ed your cat fosho.

To celebrate the occasion, I drank tons of red bull and I am officially ADDICTED.

Ginger, you'll always be the death of me...

19

Yang Safia On Wednesday, June 10, 2009

On June 7th, I turned 19. Old I know. My mom just cant believe that I turned 20 next year and most people tell me that it's my last teen year. I know, it's sooo sad. :(

Not many people know this but I have a thing for numbers. I dont believe them to be lucky or not just sometimes I tend to think certain numbers as pretty like the number 17. And 19 is such a pretty number~!

SO yay for me being 19!!! :D

I had a quiet celebration with the family on my actual birthday but yesterday my two bestfriends, Shaza and Shira threw me a fun filled birthday celebration with AWESOME GIFTS that made me feel bad receiving.

You guys sure know how to put a girl on pressure. Dah la your birthdays are in the same month so joint birthday celebration boleh? ;p

What they did was picked me up around 11am yesterday and straight away head to Sunway Pyramid (=_=). I was like, "Oh okay..." Immedietly (argh dunno how to spell!) I thought of college but whatever lah.

Shaza, "I'm going to deflower you..."

WTF was my reaction.

Then she brought me to Red Box. My first thought was "Oh no...noooooooo way. NO FREAKING WAY!"

Shaza already booked a room for us to sing our hearts out and me being a karaoke virgin ish nervous. Luckily Shira is also a karaoke virgin so okay lah....

Turned out karaoke is almost natural for me. I surprised myself. We boogied to ABBA and then strut our stuff to FERGALICIOUS and rnb-ed to Neyo songs like Mad and Closer (EPIC WIN!!). We also emo-ed to MyChemicalRomance and Shira did a solo for Hotel California, Shaza to Big Girls dont Cry and I sang to ABBA's I do I do. IT WAS CRAZY. You know how Paris Hilton danced on tables in nightclubs...well I jumped on the couch and danced. LIKE REALLY DANCED! to FERGALICIOUS.

And before that, I went shopping for my birthday gift. I've been saving up for a new handbag for quiet sometime now. My friends are somewhat relieved now that I have a handbag that I'm happy with because before this, I always put my stuff in their bags when we go out.

Now...do be aware that I'm super proud of myself that I managed to find this handbag. IT WAS AN AWESOME CHOICE I MADE AND A GOOD BARGAIN!!! In fact, I have it on my lap now so that I could stroke it as I type this post.

*The bag is so awesome that even my MOM is green with envy. :p

After 2 hours of belting out every possible notes and some impossible ones, we found ourselves a bit famished. (Yeah right, we were ready to eat an entire cow!)

SO we went to Sushi King~! I'm putting my foot down on this one because I dont want them to spend more money than they already have on the presents.

*Shaza: Who is about to get herself a boyfriend for the first time. WHY?!!!!!!*

*Shira: A bit pissed coz her food arrived really late*

*Me: Drinking green tea? Cheers!*

PRESENTS TIME~!

I'm such a present whore that you can call me a slut. Shame on me I know. (>_<;;)

But the girls really went all out this year that I really feel bad on receiving them.

*From Shira. The price tag on this pocket watch necklace is crazy. Especially if you're on a student budget. Lagi2 me lah...

*From Shaza: For a person who practically knows me inside out and can READ MY FRIGGIN MIND, its not surprising that she chose passionfruit set for meh. Is it because I'm such a passionate person or...I NIH BAU MASAM?!!! >_<>

They told me that this is my last birthday that I would celebrate with them since next year for my BIG TWO-OH I'll be celebrating it alone. Makes me feel a bit sad.

Sha and Shira, dont worry loves(!) I'm only a skype awaaaaaaaay~! <33333
