As I watched the Ugly Truth, my mind strayed away from the movie. I admit that it is a sarcastic play for a girl like me. Play with your imagination. Haha... a straightforward explanation behind one's intuition. Everyone has his or her own charm and nobody's perfect. What is the intertwisted sophisticated notion told in Men from Venus and Women from Mars mentioned by Gerard Butler? It's an idiosyncrasy for one who has too much dependence on one writer. O... crap...

The day before, I spent almost the whole day wrapped in my yellow blanket, reading a love novel entitled Until You by Judith McNaught. This novel is actually my I-dunno-who-she-is super senior's. Instead of standing stacked on my cabinet, it should be flipped through by myself to kill the ample monotonous time. Furthermore, I was totally free for Thursdays. Revolving around 1800++, this inimitable story has a subtle approach--a cultural collision of two huge continents (North America and Europe). The lady, an American governess who happens to be a representative for the run-away bride, accidentally has a temporary mind loss due to an English Earl's carelessness. It's like "jatuh ditimpa tangga". Unluckily, no one even knows her identity and everyone thinks that she is the bride. The Earl who unintentionally kills the groom before the governess arrival, feels guilty for both of his undeliberate sins. Hence, he takes care of her (whom he thought to be the bride) and as time goes by, his special feeling grows even deeper and deeper.

Does this story still exist today? I don't think it's relevant for the current context. Dreaming on... huhu... That's why it's called fictional... duh...

Owh... yesterday, I watched the Proposal with my friends for the second time in my room. What I could summarize is that, both movies that I watched this week have one obvious similarity. Both of the heroins are control freaks--Sandra Bullock and Katherine Heighl. Other than that, in my opinion, Heighl and Gerard Butler are compatible to be together. Maybe I like Heighl in Grey's Anatomy and Butler in P/S I Love You. Simply cute cute cute...

Dreaming

Where to start eh? Lemme think... This week has been a total melange. "Dah macam abc da". Last Thursday, I dreamed about Armageddon... sounds so scary huh? It's surreal but it caused me a constant pain for the wholeeeeeeee night. It woke me up at 4 a.m. and my heart throbbed so fast even worse than being in the Tower of Terror in Disneyland, Florida (my biggest fear is free fall straight from the top). I was about to cry too due to the horrifying moment. This time, the eerie aliens have 99.999% similarities with the "Alien vs. Predators". They have a dozen of tentacles and segmented metallic bodies like anthropods. I hate alien movies but I don't know how it could disturb my slumber land since the movies are lame, freaking lame CGI creatures. Nonetheless, this is not my very first time to encounter such dream--I've dreamed about getting up and realizing that the sun came from the West, hideous monsters attack from my window pane and also how the Earth has become so topsy-turvy (crushed mountains, brutal hurricanes, neverending thunderstorms which are exactly like the description in my religion class). However, every time I just feel the same way. I'm so unprepared to face the Judgment Day.

Too many predicaments that have been well-elaborated but none of them turns out to be true. When I was in primary school, rumors of the famous Nostradamus's foretelling spread like "goreng pisang panas" aka hot banana fritters. The shrewd guy predicted that the earth was going to be destroyed in July sometimes in 2005/2006. Huhu... I already forget the specific year. I think my dad still keep the "Mastika" magazine in my Muar house.

Hurmmmm... On the other hand, for my happy dreams, I've never been in chronological logical truths for example in an organized storyline and bizarre settings. Everything seems weird. How could I say??? It's so like Doraemon cartoon and its "Pintu Suka Hati". Chaotic anecdotes. Fantasy land. The strangeness about the happy dreams is that I could barely recall them as detailed as the nightmares. I tend to forget at instance. So instantly like a quarter of an hour after getting sober. I wish that I could conjure up all beautiful plots. haisyyyy...

Hari ini ku membebel lagi...

Siapa pemberi ilham buat "exam" ek? Eeee... rimas betul. Bayangkan kalau dalam dunia nie tak de "exam". Belajarrrrrrrrrrr jer... belajar tue seronok sebab dy "bestttt". tapi "exam" tak pernah seronok. ada ke "exam" seronok? hurmmm... ntah... Hari "exam" membuatkan perasaan cuak terlampau. Tak senang duduk, makan ikut suka hati tak kiza la terlebih banyak ke atau tak cukup makan. sistem pencernaan dan penghadaman pon terasa semacam. tak tau kenapa. "maybe" "exam" ada "super power". "magic" kot. tapi tue la. sampai skg daku nie susah utk menjadi manusia yang aktif kegiatan malam seperti orang lain. susah nyer mau menjadi "nocturnal". Pukul 12 je da kiok. Selain itu, paling tak suka 'exam' yg kena kira2. padahal tekan2 "calculator" je tapi gelabah nyer hanya tuhan yg tahu. benda yg senang pon bole jd susah. yang susah apetah lagi. tue tak campur "careless mistake" dan kehebatan dalam menyonteng kertas. sebabnyer, tak suka anta kertas kosong wlupon tak reti. ala, dlm dunia betul pon macam la kena jawab semua soalan tue dlm masa pendek cam tue. tp tue la keistimewaan pergi sekolah. kalau tak pergi sekolah tak jumpa da 'exam' nyer. tak gitu? benda paling tak syok adalah tgk "result exam". benda paling menarik dan suka hati pon sebab tgk "result" exam". Kalau gempak, sehari tue mcm rasa dunia 'ana' yang punya. Kalau tak, rasa nak tanam muka jer. Daku tau yang daku nie bukannya anak orang kaya, bapak ada "firm" sendiri, bole keje dengan bapak bile da beso. Daku juga tau, daku tak de aset berjuta-juta lemon. Duit pon sekupang dua je. Tu pon sumer nnt akhirnya abis kat "shopping" dg "travel" yang tak seberapa. Untuk hidup mewah dan senang kita harus berusaha. Nak terlibat dalam "white collar crime" pon kena ada ilmu. melainkan ada yg terlebih bernasib baik dan rezekinyer da tertulis begitu. Yer kawan-kawan, kesimpulannye, marilah berusaha ke arah kejayaan. Berusaha, berusaha! gambatte na! :D

My Little Cutie Pie

Hi beautiful sunny :),

She makes me laugh. She makes me smile. When I’m in her house’s bed, she will greet me "Good morning, Zati!!!" joyfully with her squeaking voice and she's first thing I see every time I wake up early in the morning. I like to pat her back and to sing her lullabies until she falls asleep even though I actually croak like a toad. Well, I'm not going to enter the American Idol so who cares...I never get tired (I only meet her once in a while) of listening to her mumbling with her own pidgin. "Zati, look at this... Zati look at that... This is a pwincesss miwwor! Never mind, we can twy next time... Oucchhh, it hurts, Zati..."

Months ago, she was not as chatterbox as she is currently. I still remember her limited two vocabularies when she first came here—“bedon" aka balloon and "sezuk" aka cold. I could barely decipher her weird jargons, nonetheless, now she could talk and sing the U.S. top chart songs (i.e. Poker Face and Boom Boom Pow) like pop corns popping in a pot ceaselessly when she's with her parents or when she's at home. JUST at home... Probably she's too shy when she's out. I'm clueless about where she learns all those words. She doesn't come to school and she doesn't have a lot of friends. May be they come from Barney's or other TV programs but don't tell me that she learns from her favorite mute show, Pingu. Hoho... :) Absurdity comes to my mind each time I'm wondering how she could giggle and grasp the gist of all these mute penguins' actions. After all, I'm very proud of her adroitness compared to other kids at her age. She could differentiate all alphabets, shapes and numbers fluently. She could also spell her own name out loud, A-D-A-N-I.

I treat her like my own lil' sister even though I don't have any real little ones due to our close age gaps. Back then, when I was in my "kampung" aka village, I always be the baby sitter. I don't know why. Obviously seen, it's just like a family trend to have kids at the same time, so, everyone (my aunties and sometimes my older cousins) ended up delivering their babies almost in the same month by only few days’ difference. Usually there were like four aunties from my dad's side. Did they plan for this? Haha... May be I should count other external factors as well since my dad has a biggggg family. "Orang dulu2 nie mmg semua anak ramai kot." Thus, during Eid Celebration, I was like in a party of babies (imagine if all of them cry simultaneously) and girls and boys who were slightly mature (teenagers) would be asked to take care of small cousins when their mummies were busy cooking or "rewang" in the kitchen. Heh??? Does my face have the criteria of a babysitter? heeeee... How unlucky I am. haha... I should adopt a baby one day. J

In a nutshell, I miss my family gatherings (supremely Eid Mubarak) so much and Adani is my quick cute remedy. Definitely, I’m gonna miss her soon. Love you Dani... Mwwuahhh...
