banana and cashew

I have recently changed my Add Maths tuition (no, my recent stellar performance in it had no influence whatsoever in this change) to the one with Madam Chuan(?, correct me if I'm wrong). With the expanding number of tuition mates (private tutoring with Miss Yeoh consists of only me and Farah), tuition just got even more interesting.

There's about almost ten students in that small, crowded classroom and only three students were not from Seafield. I wasn't really familiar with all of them but hey,I have seen them around school except for this one guy; Joshua. Dude is funny as hell. Our first encounter was when Xiao Hui told him my Add Maths marks and he was all like 'whooaaaa' and kept asking me all these questions. I tried to answer them and nonchalantly as possible but it was hard not to laugh. I put a ginormous amount of effort to suppress my laughter.

So, last Thursday (the hype still has yet to die down now that all of us has already received our marks), the teacher was like 'How much y'all get?' and stuff and surprisingly, one guy failed. It was pretty surprising because as far as I know he's pretty smart. Joshua, however passed! The lot of them were quite surprised by his success. Never mind that. Let's skip to the fun part.

Xiao Hui told Joshua about the guy who failed (Joshua was late so he didn't know then) and Joshua was teasing the poor fellow. After he got bored, he went ahead and ask Tuen Tjun "You got banana or cashew?" OhhhhmyGoddddd, really? Tuen Tjun had a wtf face on and answered "Banana. Of course la." Joshua then asked "You know or not what is banana?" Cue another of course la.

They got on and on until Joshua said that he has a banana tree and he can give some to Tuen Tjun for him to lick and suck or what ever it was the he suggested. I couldn't really remember because I was trying really, really HAAAAAAAARD to not to burst out laughing on the floor. That was when the teacher has had enough.

She went all "Joshua, stop. You think I don't know what you're talking about, ah? No dirty jokes in my class."

I guess that was the last straw. After that, we all just resumed with our workload. Or is it? Well, that's as far as I can recall.

Have I mentioned that the barristas at Starbucks are meant to make your knees buckle? Oh well, now I did. They're soooooooo cute! Ohh, I love an empty Starbucks and when they have Liyana Fizi on the speakers, it just had me falling in love with it all over again.

hush , the dead are dreaming .

Ignore the title, I am not going to go all morbid here but it is somewhat related to what I feel like saying. Dreaming. No It's not dreaming at- the- night dreaming, it's what do you dream of doing.

Today. during English, the teacher asked us what are our dreams. I could feign ignorance in front of 38 other students, but honestly, I was wondering. Am I that aimless? I have no idea what to be when I grow up but then something hit me. When did dreams have to be ambitions? I realized that I have one ultimate dream; finding all the flavours of Hershey's Kisses and find the perfect one for myself. As for now, I nominate the Cherry Cordial Chocolate Kisses as my favourite :D

The trainee teacher thought that my dream was cute. I find that telling to the whole wide world rather embarrassing (my mind have a mind of its own). My dream was to go around the world collecting Kisses? People must have that I was crazy. Thank God, I did not say out loud the #1 thing to do on my 'What Happens When I Gained RM40 million' list. It would have been weirder and I shall not mention #1 either here.

Oh to hell with what people think. What are dreams if they were not fantastical, right? I mean if I dreamt of traveling the whole world (which I totally do at times, but I don't have a clear vision how or where), my dreams would have been the same as another ten students in my class (no offence, Nina). It would not have been fun that way. Besides, how many citizens of Earth dreams of traveling the world? Probably billions.

Am I going to be just another girl in a billion of other people? Ehh, sorry, mate but no. I am going to be that one person with the one dream. Anyways, enough about dreams, I shall now step back into reality.

Us students got our test papers back and it was a little off- balance for yours truly. If I succeed, I scored amazingly but when I don't, I practically failed (okay, no, that was an exaggeration). I hope those damned marks balance out and I get to top my class. It has been reaaaalllyyyyyy long since I placed first (it's not that important, really. How you fare in the tests are way more important) and I'd like to be first once in a while. What's the harm in dreaming, right?

Okaaaaay, can't seem to go off topic with the dreaming thing. Whatever. AH! I have discovered that you do not need weed to get high (some say you NEED MGMT but Iman and I prove people wrong). All you need is an amazing friend and random things (like dinosaurs on the Wudo board or galaxies on the Bomba board).

It's true! And it's pretty hard to get off the high moment where you laugh for Godknowswhat reason and everything just left your mind. Whatever it is, it is a happy time, an epic moment and I wonder if anyone out there ever felt like I did.

crispy, gooey chocolate waffles

Warning: Crispy and gooey chocolate waffles may induce rempitzz-ness, nigga/ environmental freak- ness. I assure you, that is the truth!

Who does not like waffles? Those crunchy thingies with various flavour spreads in em. YUM YUM YUM! Well, I believe (we believe; Adilah, Nina, Rash and I) that that yummy thing contains something very, very lethal. It all began on one fiiiiiiine Friday.

Like usual, Adilah ripped off Tas' money and started to spend it. She was hungry so, she bought chocolate waffles. I thought that they looked incredibly yummy (and I guess I was hungry too) so both of us shared it. For THE FIRST TIME EVER, the damned waffles were crispyyyyyyy and had an enormous amount of chocolate spread in it. Surprisingly, I must say. Usually, it will be soft and had little spread in it. Call us lucky :D

Both Adilah and I were fine, that is until Biology rolled in and we were in the lab. Adilah started singing (I forgot what she sang) and then when she sang Vanessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles, something happened. I believe, a rush of hyperactivity just shot in me (and her too). We sang the song with so much spirit (the piano bit was really, really exciting and fast- paced in our version).

Then, some rempitzzz soul possessed(?) us. We started talking in rempzz style and let's just say, laughter was inevitable. Especially when Nina refused to join in (she had to complete her PEKA, totally understandable) but it was so, so, so, so obvious that she was refraining herself from laughing. She was grinning and she did the weird thing with her mouth. Teasing her with our rempzz talk and Siapa Ni? was absurdly fun. And so we did for two periods (Adilah even talked rempzz style with Puan Latiffah which made the both of us laugh even more!) and by the time it was the last period, both Adilah and I were worn out with all the rempzzz.

Anywayzzz, we concluded that it was the Awesomeness of the chocolate waffle that drove us into insanity. And our theory proved to be correct when we ate it today and we went on a frenzy (not so much this time though because the waffle wasn't as crispy) and we made our first waffle- related mistake today. Letting Rash eat it.

Dammmnnn, girl became an environmental freak shouting that the plastic spoon is haram (it's illegal on Friday only, by the way) and she pulled Izyan's green bag saying that Adilah should be more green like Izyan and don't waste paper (wattaafakk ?). She also started being extremely nigga- like and began impersonating Puan Jega and called her Lady Jega (whaaaaaaat?) which was really, really really weird. We started to leave her when she decided to point her boobs out because that was just EXTREMELY weird.

Anyways, Rash's birthday is gonna come soon (19th Feb!) and we probably are gonna go celebrate it! Yippeeeeeee :D

will you love me still , if i confess .

Call me a freak or just another typical teenage girl but I can't wait till the next installment of the Twilight series to come out. I don't care if the story is cliche and cheesy, I just want it OUT ! Why? So that I can get the next set of soundtrack. As much as I loathe the whole saga itself, one thing I have to absolutely admit.

The soundtrack is God- awesome.

It doesn't faze me that the Twilight Saga has amazing soundtrack. The movie might be lame and annoying but it still owns that mysterious force that pulls you towards it. And it has an amazing soundtrack even if you only hear about half of the songs on the album in the whole 120 minutes of the movie itself. So, yes, come Breaking Dawn. Descend upon us common earthlings with your mysterious force that drive young girls into a frenzy and men on youtube into an even more crazy frenzy.

So, I shall wait patiently for it to be released.

Speaking of releases, when is (500) Days of Summer going to be screened on TV? When is it EVER going to get the exposure and love that it deserves? Ohh, I hope they screen it soon so that those people ( you soooooo know who you are, people! *ehemKhaliliehem* ) who ignored my callings shall live in remorse for not watching it sooner. HAH !

On your face, suckaaaaaaaas ! And it has an awesome soundtrack too, kudos.

Ohhh dear, I would really want to go to MGMT but it clashes with the Ledang trip. Damn!

we'll have to prove them wrong ,

Rashveen Kaur is, I promise you, embarrassing! It's not that I don't like her, I love that bitch to death but she makes me feel embarrassed about twice in a day on average and I'm sure everyone else agrees too.

Why, you may ask?

Like any fine morning, Adilah and I roamed around the school blocks trying to kill time as our Biology teacher skipped town (not really, she was just absent, plain as that). While we were at that, we decided to take the long way to our class and strayed to the third floor where Rashveen's class was at. The janitor (old fellow with a crazy voice!) was on the godknowswhatyoucallit outside the class windows, sweeping up broken windows and all.

I made an innocent joke. what if some scared the shit out of the janitor from the window? He will fall down, of course. What would the headlines of tomorrow's newspaper be? Obviously it will be 'Janitor Scared to Death'. *insert Adilah and I laughing* We were then, joined by Rashveen.

Then, we passed through Izyan's class and her History teacher was in. Adilah goes ahead and said 'She looks like the Wallace & Grommit character!' in which I agreed with and we laughed non- stop. Really, she does look like a Wallace & Grommit character. Then, suddenly !

Rashveen starts to do her hyperventilating laugh. Naturally, Adilah and I thought that she was laughing about the Wallace and Grommit bit. Yeah, NOPE. She wasn't. How did I know that? Well, seconds later, her skinny little finger pointed towards the janitor who had some difficulties hanging onto the window latch and hopping into the balcony and she laughed, SOME MORE! In fact, she couldn't stop laughing at the poor bloke. He eventually succeeds, of course.

Mean? YES. Proud about? HELL NO. Embarassing? Fakk yeah!

But I love her, I do. That story is something that is funny later on when it is being told. Hence, my love for Rashveen Kaur.

Is that the end? NOPE. What else? Here goes.

Last year, all of us (Adilah, Hanina, Izyan, Rashveen, Tasmin and I) were in the same class and somehow, our class is opposite of Manoj's class. Strange twist of fate, my class is still opposite his! Anyway, one fiiiiiiine morning, Rashveen decided to call out his name for Godknowswhat reason and boy looked.

But he never looked our way.

He looked up, down, sideways and all but never at our direction, so he never found the source of the voice. Out of pure evil, Rashveen does it again. 'Manoj!' He never looked at us but boy, did he look pissed and confused at the same time! Somehow, he reminds me of a sun bear! And she did it again and again and again and again and again until I lost count but Manoj never gave up. I'm pretty sure the mystery still lives on.

Anything else I missed about Rashveen? Well, if you ever meet her, make her laugh. You'll never stop laughing at her laugh. Or worry, depending on how you look at it. Her laugh is a little unnatural if not worryingly unnatural. It makes you wonder if she is ever going to die from laughing too much.

Fun things happened today like, winning the match of the lame- ass game; Captain Ball. I contributed to one out of four goals and this week. I was so much more participative today than the last match but surprisingly, even with lack of enthusiasm last week, I still scored one goal too, last week. Witnessed Farid got locked in the sports storage room, I wonder how did he end up trapped in there in the first place as the lock was inside. Finished all my homeworks at school for the first time which resulted in the excess time i have right now.

Walked home with Ridhwan for the first time! Well, Ridhwan and Amir but I have never even spoken a word or more with Ridhwan before. Surprisingly, he looks a teeny weeny bit like Justin Bieber. Hair and facial structure and all. Was absurdly enthusiastic during Add Maths tuition which was uber- surprising. Perhaps it was all the magic of Michelle Branch's songs.

Discovered that lame movies like the Twilight Saga especially, Eclipse are perfectly capable of having mind- blowing soundtracks. Am in lo- lo- lo- lo- love with Cee Lo Green's What Part of Forever, Beck and Bat For Lashes' Let's Get Lost and also Vampire Weekend's Jonathan Low.

Discovered that you should never ever name your children with names that can be turned into Knock, knock jokes . *ehemHusniehem* and on this note, I shall end here.

p/s sucks that I can't go to MGMT simply because the rule states; 18 and above only.

I wouldn't gasp for air if ever I did sink.
I wouldn't struggle, I'd just let it all out fast and then start living in the past.
