Sae-urdaiee

It's a Saturday night and I am at home at the usual prime time to head out. Hrm, the sentence sounds wrong and I don't bother to correct it because I am soooo like @@" this now. swt. My eyes feel dry and like wanna pop outta my sockets any second now. Feeling drained but not ready for bed yet, ya know the feeling?? wuds rong wif me?! Nvm >_<.
Maybe the reason I'm so tired is because it has been such an eventful 1 and half weeks. 
First there was the Basket Ball match. Went to catch the semi finals and finals.
Check out the scoreboard. 44 44 >_<. The black team, Duke and red team, Acex were quite good. Their scores were like so evened out until the last 2 quarters if I remembered correctly. Duke won yay.
The gurl friends I hang out with. :)
After that, the next week, there was Swinburne's got talent:

The whole multi-purpose hall was zh'ng-ed and filled with seats. By the middle of the show, the hall was full!
There were quite some talents there. I really liked Ruby, Daus and Elite Crew's performance. They were all exceptionally good at entertaining. The others were good too, admire their guts and talents much. Overall for RM7, it was quite worth it. First time hosting such an event and they really did quite well.
Owhkay, more beach pictures because I just can't get over them >_<. I dunno, pictures by the beach are just bright, clean, fun and very hard to get sick off. 
Talk about beach pictures, my friend went to Redang and took a pic of a beach wedding there with the beautiful bride and her Caucasian-look-alike groom. OMG it was BEAUTIFUL, wait, lemme just go steal the pic...
There! Don't  you just feel the love!?.. So romantic.. the perfect setting, perfect theme, perfect clothes! lol. heart to the very max. So tempted to have a beach wedding nxt time too >_<.
Anyway, enough of dreaming if not I'll be like Captain Jack Sparrow seeing crabs that can carry a ship. Omg, d'you see the crab!? I'm not going coockoo am I? >_<.
I love the background. I guess the cam was set to a really bright mode so all out pics look so final-fantasy-ish.
:)
Also met up with Kimberly like, once >_<. because I am busy. T.T and tired. T.T.
And tonight's a Saturday but couldn't be bothered to go out anymore. Not only because friends are all busy, but also because I still have left overs of this effin' flu I got from this sickness I got from going in and out of cool rooms to hot weather and back to cool rooms and so on till I got sick T.T
Very tired now, but will watch another Michelle Phan vid and maybe another episode of 90210. OMG I LOVE LIAM. He's hawt! ♥
Ok nights now. 
p/s: dunno why my fonts become like this wtf
pp/s: If this post is messy sorry, too tired/lazy to correct it :D muarh

Random Daph fact: It takes 10 double clicks to access a particular assignment paper of a particular subject on my laptop.
Shows how many folders I have for every single category of everything. >_<.

Shewting stars

The song "Airplanes" by BoB feat Hayley Williams has been ringing in my head like every single minute since the first time I heard it. Especially Hayley's part,
"Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now"
It's so catchy (to me). I really never liked the famous songs from Paramore at all because I used to think they were damn noisy and annoying especially that "burry the castle" song that I told my BFFEEEEE I hated which she later ended up using as her dial tone (the toot toot sound you hear when you call somebody) wtf! Way to go Sharon! >_<. And le boyfie would also crank up the music when the song played on the radio for the sake of annoying me /.\" Wads with these people?!
Anywhoos, I shall stop my prejudice and start accepting Paramore into my life because of "Airplanes" (which was mainly sung by BoB >_<.) And once I did that, her songs on radio became slower and I actually liked them >_<.
Awh man outta topic again. I like the song and the meaning of it. From my point of view I think BoB's like emoing and saying that he misses the days when life was a lot more simpler. When he did things he loved just for fun with no pressure. Like, making music for the joy of it and not for the money, which I guess makes him depressed cos something that you loved has became something that causes you stress and pressure cos you're living on it. Something like that.
This let me see a piece of advice my dad gave me a few years back when I was still thinking of what degree I was gonna take, in a different point of view.
I was very interested and rather determined to pursue a subject of my talent. I wanted to make it better by going to a University that can help improve it and live on my talent later on in life because I thought I am good at it and I will really be successful that way. 
But dad told me off. He said let that be a hobby and get a more recognized degree. I used to think he was just too stingy to send me away to pursue it because there weren't any good universities of that subject locally. He supported his argument by saying, 'you do not want to live on what you love to do, because when you get into the real world, you might not love to do it anymore.' (summarized from original) Of course, then, I was even more pissed cos I didn't get what I want and didn't understand whatever he might have meant. I thought I loved what I did and would always love it.
But this song painted a different picture in my mind. When your whole life depends on something you like to do such as singing, which is your job that puts money on the table, as well as pressure, criticism, lovers and haters, would you still love to do it? Fewd fer thought?
Anyway, all that really isn't the reason why the phrase from the song is still ringing in my head. Instead, it's the 'how much you wish you could just wish' thing. We always face problems in life and how nice would it be if we could just look up, catch a shooting star, and wish that everything will be better, and it really comes true. If only there was such a thing as pure luck and a short cut to settling issues.
Omg, I am not emo, okay maybe a little... What to do, songs always touch a certain part of our emotions. They are so powerful. Especially Chinese songs!
Oh yeah, this is a piano version of "Airplanes" which is pretty fawesome. I feel so much from the pianist's expression lol, and of course the song and the order and tune she plays it in. Thumbs up. Have a listen:


That's all fer now, gtg do some catching up and get some sleep. Nights. :) xoxo

Siar Beach & Gunung Gading Trip

Went on this study trip to Siar Beach Resort on Saturday. Never heard of the place until I took this subject, Integrated Marketing Communication and had to do an assignment on it. Well, if you're as clueless as I was, it's located at Lundu. Around one and half hours drive from Kuching City. 
Stopped by Lundu town to use the Petronas toilet lol. And there's this nice scene behind the petrol station. Which reminds me very much of the crayon pictures I used to practice in primary school hehe.
The guy's car. Fancy, lowered, sporty but totally not suitable for the road entering the resort lols. The guys were sticking their heads out of the car to watch the road which was quite hilarious to look at from behind.
In the end they had to walk the whole stretch to lighten the car's burden to save it's "skirt". Poor car owner :p
After the serious stuff of collecting information and pictures from the resort's owner, we had some fun on the beach and lotsa cam whoring :D The guy behind, Kevin is really funny. Him and his stupid poses. Entertaining much. lol. Everytime I look at these pics, I can't help but L.O.L.
Some calculator on the beach they dug out from the sand LOL.
Siar Beach Resort has a really nice and clean and wide beach with a fantastic view. I won't say the same for the resort's bungalows itself but if you're in for cheap & simple & peaceful stuff. This has got to be the place you're looking for.
Hehe. Group pic on the sampan (small boat) on the sand.
Look at the amazing space. Heart to the max.
We proclaim ourselves the white team because we were all wearing white duh. 
More pics
This has got to be the best pic ever. Haha... Can't help laughing and loving this picture.
And it was time to leave the beach because of a drizzle.
Group pic with the boss before leaving :)
After lunch at Lundu, we decided we had enough energy to continue the trip so off we went to Gunung Gading. :D Me and Jacelyn who's from Johor I think haha.
We (the whole group of 9) paid RM20 to see the Rafflesia which had just bloomed 2 days ago. It has a life span of only 5 days and takes 9 months to bloom. How extremely lucky we were! The egg-look-a-like thing above is a Rafflesia seed. 
The Rafflesia. Biggest flower in the world. Which Kevin Sia proclaimed is his cousin (Raffle Sia) and forefather of Kenny Sia wtf. It's 55cm. And isn't as smelly as people claimed they were. But I did smell a bit of a rotten chicken smell, but that's only if you put your nose like really close to it.
Group pic of the one and maybe only chance with the Rafflesia.
Another group pic near the first waterfall.
I think this is like one of the only decent poses Kevin did. lmao.
:D Water fall no.1!
hehe!
Oh yeah, some of the pics here are courtesy of Jeff Chai and Hui Ching and Aida :D
Breath taking no?
They say he looks like he's running away from some monster predator or smthn lol.
And in the evening, it was time to go. Didn't manage to go to the other waterfalls. We were kinda in a rush to get back to Kuching but was accidentally lead by the guys all the way to Sematan lol. We missed the turning back to Kuching and spent another 15 minutes looking for it.
It was a fun trip indeed. These natural forest outings always surprise me. I was never much of a nature lover, but everytime I set out with friends into a place surrounded with trees and natural cool streams/ waterfalls, I always end up having the time of my life. Really hope the forests will always be around for our future generations to come. I shall be a little more of an environmentalist from now on lol.
Nights now.

Helloo

Woo hoo, neglecting blog again. Been a pretty busy week. Was disappointed last week for my average grades which was caused by last minute work. Hate that lazy part of myself. Anyway, no more last minute stuff. Really! Time to work hard.

Anyway, had quite an interesting Saturday. Woke up at an ungodly hour (to me), which was 6.30am. lol. To go on this trip to Siar Beach for one of my subject's assignment. Ended up pretty fun because of the good company. Also trekked a bit in Gunung Gading which was good too. Reminds me of NS where we trekked through jungle and walked up Mount Singai. WOoh! good exercise indeed. Legs were getting soft, loosing balance once in a while and sweat was all over me. But it was good, and comforted that I still maintain a reasonable amount of my high school stamina :D. Which reminds me, I'm supposed to loose my tummy fats before the boyfie gets back *terror.. the work D: Anyway, will blog bout the trip after I finish collecting all the pics from them friends.

Fer now, gonna enjoy my Sunday at home in my huge t-shirt and specs, makeup-less, collecting mouth odor (not talking to anyone ma >_<.) and catch up with my work.

Have a great Sunday ppl :D
