HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

UPDATE/ 5.42PM
I think I just threw up a little in my mouth when Jenny and Nate started to make out. 
But first reaction was OMFG, Jenny and NATE?!?!?!?!
But after rewinding, I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.
Jenny's 15, for God's sake, isn't it disturbing?
Can Dan and Serena just get back together already? We all know that they are going to get back together. 
Chuck and Blair? Not so sure, I love the games that they play.
Overall, Jenny and Nate is much better than Vanessa and Nate. 
In case you are wondering what the hell I'm writing, it's Gossip Girl. 


My mum said to stop surfing the Net at 4, like I could give a damn. 
I hardly give a damn/shit/fuck (pardon the language) on whatever she says. 
It's Halloween, my mum made me accompany my sisters Trick or Treating, like I said, do I give a damn/shit/fuck, NOOOOOO.
I'm just gonna slack round the house, not like my house have any interesting activities to do. 
The only entertainment my house have is piano, TV, computer and Wii. 
My mum made me practice the piano, like I give a damn.
I practiced before leaving for class, it counts right?
I'm still reading Sunrise, the extremely amazing Twilight fanfiction, it's bloody hell long. 
Wait, it's 4PM, but am I going offline? NOOOOOOOO. 
Just extremely pissed with my Mum. 
She has effing serious mood swings and she just expects us to bear with her. 
She scolds me because sometimes I'm just angry with myself, yes, I get upset over the tiniest little things. Example, getting pieces wrong, not getting the high score on the Wii and etc.
Small, petty little things at that.
But yesterday, because of her fucked up mood swings she was like scolding me because I deleted my sister's song even though I promised my sis to replace them.
I said to my sis, "I'm sorry, I'll get you back your songs."
And my Mum was like, "So what, huh???? YOU DELETED YOUR SIS'S SONGS."
I so wanted to say, "It's just SONGS, no need to get so worked up."
But if I said that, she'll go tsunami mode on me. 
She was on hurricane mode, even my Dad couldn't stand her.
He said, "Mum's cranky tonight."
I said, "You are so wrong, she has been cranky for the whole day."
He said, " I pity you."
My Dad's so nice, he agrees with me on my Mum's mood swings :D

OMG, I can't believe I forgotten to watch Gossip Girl, I should like go murder myself.

Fanfiction!

My new addiction is fanfiction. Not really new, I've been reading them for quite long already. I read Private, Gossip Girl(when I'm bored out of my wits) and of course Twilight. Currently reading Sunrise, Twilight in Edward's Point of View. Basically, Midnight Sun. The chapters are really really long. It is one of the best Midnight Suns I've ever read other than Stephenie Meyer's partial draft. You could feel Edward's thirst, his self-loathe and loneliness. I just wanted to add this .TO ET: EDWARD IS NOT A PERFECT CHARACTER, HE HAS HIS FLAWS, EXAMPLE, HIS SELF-LOATHE AND OVERREACTION. Hah! I said it, ET, you can stop all the Gary-Stu and Mary Sue crap now. I haven't had a chance to retaliate, so I'll say this. 
HARRY POTTER IS A STUPID AND NERDY CHARACTER, HE WOULD PROBABLY DIE IF HE DOESN'T HAVE HERMOINE AND RON TO SAVE HIM.

That's for berating Edward. You're lucky I didn't send out a pack of rabid Eddie fangirls. Imagine what they'll do. 
It'll be a short post for today, I have fanfiction to read, petpages to update and stuff to do.
I need a new skin.

Guilty Pleasures

A guilty pleasure is known as something one considers pleasurable despite feeling guilt for enjoying it. Fashion, music and food can be examples of guilty pleasures.


I decided to do today's post on guilty pleasures. Apologies for not posting in the past 2 days, I was busy with reading. Please refer to the above for the definition of guilty pleasures. Here are some of my guilty pleasures, buying Cosmo Girl and Teen Vogue every month even though they are expensive, abandoning playing the piano and playing the Wii instead, making fun of people who type in chatspeak and gorging myself on chocolate. But my top guilty pleasure will be buying the magazines every month. $6.90 + $7.90 = $14.80 which also equals to some of my pocket money gone. 

But they make for much better reading than Teenage and Teens which is plain stupid and ridiculous. But after reading both of them, I can justify that money is well spent. I do feel guilty for abandoning my piano for the Wii and than hate myself for being so weak to succumb to temptation. That only happens when I get my scales all screwed up and the timing on exercises also screwed up. In the case of chocolates, I have to go work it all off in many many laps of swimming, chocolates aren't healthy, you know. Making fun of people who type in chatspeak isn't a guilty pleasure, it's FUN FUN FUN. 


So that concludes my guilty pleasures. I'll put in some of my favorite quotes here, or maybe not, since I can't find them.

Insert Hilarious Title here.

Acts of defiance amuses me, that's so true ;D
ET is one hell of a genius.
People have asked me what do I do with my time online and I'll tell you since I don't like go friendster or whatever.
I go on NEOPETS!
Let the flaming begin.
A lot of people says its lame and etc but I think it's fun.
The conversations and the people are great and the people are at least semi-literate.
At least they don't go around typing lykke tiz.
Plus, I like the guilds, it has taught me the CSS and graphic skills.
I made a new guild with ET, Limn, pwnsome name, isn't it?
I also like interacting with the people and the sarcasm is great.
I've been playing since I was 6, I think.
The fun of being there is unexplainable, better than wasting time on friendster.
I always wonder why do people like friendster so much, it's a stupid waste of time adding people you don't know.
Plus, I've always find out new books from there. That's how I know about Twilight.
If you want to find me there, I'm neogirl_46569, been having the account since I was 10, pardon the name.
So now you guys know what I do with my time online other than blogging.

Side note: I got accepted into AMTP, ET and Terra are there :DD

Because I like the number 101.

Time is Running Out-Muse
I think I'm drowning
asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
that you've created

you're something beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
but I'm addicted

now that you know I'm trapped sense of elation
you'd never dream of
breaking this fixation

you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?
ooooohh

you will suck the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
ooooohh

HAPPY 100th POST

HSM3 songs and some scenes are super duper annoying.
I was laughing my way through the entire movies because it's so....
Let me find one word to describe it.
Got it! Cheesy.
They are all talking and bam! suddenly they are singing.
I only like Now or Never, the ONLY one.
Remind my sister to buy the soundtrack.
They love it sooooo much.
The last time I bought the HSM 2 soundtrack, my ears were bleeding from the constant loop of the music.
I bought it because my mum wanted to buy a CD for me. I had nothing to choose from.
I swear WHEN my sisters buy it, I didn't say if, they WILL definitely buy it.
I'll get a pair of earplugs or those noise cancelling earphones.
One of the cheesy scenes were during the first one.
When Troy was singing the Now or Never and suddenly Gabriella joins it.
It's damm hilarious, I tell you.
Lynette had to shut me up to stop me from laughing.

My cousin just arrived,
Happy 21st Birthday.
This is gonna sound cliche, but you can watch R21 already :D
She just gave us some Body Shop Stuff.
They smell very nice.
There's even a pillow mist!
I'm going to spray it on my pillow.

I'm putting a blogsong.
Muse can count on me as a new fan.
My Dad introduced me to them, he introduced me to Linkin Park and Coldplay, you know?
I have the coolest Dad ever.
He's a HUGE music fan like me, now he's currently listening to heavy metal.
Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and ACDC.
ACDC is nice, nicer than HSM 3 songs.

Let the onslaught of music begin.
Oh yes, I forgot to type this.

HAPPY 100th POST!

High School Musical 3

Went with Lynette to watch High School Musical 3(HSM3) at West Mall today.
My mum, being evil said that I had to bring my 2 sisters along or else I can't go.
I have to admit, Zac Efron looks extremely gay.
During the first scene, he looks like extremely gay-ish and I was laughing.
Worse still, some guys who were sitting behind me said 'OH MY GOSH LARRH, ZAC EFRON IS SOO SEXXY,'
I was practically having hysterics, couldn't stop laughing.
I guessed the plot and I'm not going to post spoilers here.
Some parts Zac Efron just look ridiculous and I was laughing like mad when the scene wasn't supposed to be funny.
Plus the ridiculous comments the guys at the back made, I was laughing like hell.
They did kiss though, the kiss was better than HSM 2.

Not too bad really, 3.5/5, I'm an EXTREMELY STRICT movie reviewer.

Just some of my randomness

UPDATE:
I think I shall go watch High School Musical 3 today with Lynette.
I want to go to Vivo and watch.
My mum can fetch me there and she can go do her shopping ;D
Dad went on business to China, going to ask him buy DVDs. 
Top on my list; Burn After Reading.
Reviews say that Brad Pitt's hilarious. 
It's nice to see Brad Pitt acting stupid instead of the sex symbol he is.
I/HAVE/TO/PRACTICE/PIANO/NOW



I woke up early today, 8am.
I have piano at 11am later, going to go practice in like 1/2 hour time.
Yesterday went to IMM bought a new Microsoft XP Home Edition for the house computer
So I went to install it and guess what, all the data was wiped out.
But luckily, I backed up my music and pictures.
And I still have to go reinstall all the software again, which includes, iTunes, QuickTime, Safari, upgrade to IE 8(my parents can't get used to FF no matter how hard I convince them), install Windows Live Messenger and upgrade to the new Windows Media Player.
I also have to reinstall all the printer software, *sigh*.
Worse still, the speakers aren't working.
It's basically the same hardware and etc, just that we bought a new operating system.
Before I installed the new XP, my speakers were working, which means that the soundcard is working fine.
I Googled for solutions and all I got was that my soundcard wasn't working.
But after I plugged out everything 1/2 hour ago and put it back in again, the bloody speakers still won't work.
But I swear before I installed the new XP my speakers were working.
There's no fun in computer if your speakers aren't working.

HELP PLEASE?!?!

Heard from ET that John Green made the New York Times bestseller list.
Pop the champagne, and make hell lotta noise fellow Nerdfighters.
I read his book, An Abundance of Katherines and it is good.

Chatspeak, *shudders*

Before I start, I'm going to start replying tags in posts and on your blogs. 
I'm normally to lazy too do it.
I'm done with E-Learning, except for Chinese which are having some technical difficulties. 
LITING:Puke and throws up on you ;D
et XD:Hello, extra terrestrial creature.
JASMINE:No, sorry. I'm not lending out Twilight anymore. Send me an invite to your blog please?
random stalker: Hello ET, I know who you are. There's  no hiding from me.

Now I'm going to continue.
Thanks again ET for the extremely pwnsome idea.
I'm always stealing them, *smirks*.
Don't you find it annoying when people type their entire blog post in chatspeak, improper grammar and spelling. 
You don't have to type in fantastic English with superb grammar.
It won't hurt to install a spell checker, does it?
Here's a software for you Internet Explorer(IE) users, clickclickclick, I swear, there are no viruses. 
But of course I don't use IE which is turtle slow and the HTML standards are like crap.
If you don't even want to install a spellchecker, use Mozilla Firefox or Safari. 
I use Safari because I like how the words come out all pretty and there's a grammar checker. 
I only use Mozilla Firefox when I want to check if layouts are compatible.

Chatspeak is raping English, it iz veri annoying tuhh read tiz kind of typing, rite???
And I have no idea why did people replaces their 'g' with a 'q'. 
Example 'Tuhhdae, went shoppinqq wif mum.'
It's an eyesore, isn't it.

So fight for literacy and DON'T TYPE IN CHATSPEAK.

omg dis was da bestest fanfikk evar!1 fangz 4 writin dis!1

Okay, compared to what I'm putting in here and what I put in my last post, this is going to be what many non-chatspeakers/chatspeak haters will agree.

As always, ET provided me with hilarious(I gotta use another word) links and well they are really amusing.

To start of with, go to Google not Yahoo, and Google worst fanfic ever. 
For you lazy pigs out there, I'll make screenies for you.
Just so happens that I'm bored and willing to make screenies. 

Drag to address bar to enlarge.

How can the best and the worst be on the same level, weird right?

I forgotten to add red circles but look at the first link. 
My Immortal(MI) is one very poorly written Harry Potter fanfic. 
The writer, Tara Gilesbie wrote MI in chatspeak.
Examples below.

"Suddenly I was in fornt of teh School. In front of me wuz one of da sexiest goth guyz I had ever seen. He was wering long blak hair, kinda like Mikey Way only black. He had gren eyes like Billie Joe Amstrung and pale whit skin. He wuz wearing a blak ripped up suit wif Vans. It was…………………….Tom Bombodil!1111"

"Who MASTABATED to it!"

"dUMBLydore lookd shockd."

Look at the horrendous spelling and chatspeak. I got this from Encyclopedia Dramatica(clickclickclick).
But sadly, the original one has been deleted but there's a sequel which is equally as horrible. 
In case you are curios, here's the link, My Immortal 2: Wake Me Up Inside.
And here is my review.
"Thank you for destroying the English language. Also thank you for providing me hilarious entertainment. I've got to agree, the reviews are far far more hilarious than the story itself.  I read till Chapter 3 or is it 3 paragraphs? My eyes were bleeding, my throat hurt and I think I just threw up my lunch. Now look, there's vomit on the floor. You raped it, you stamped on it, you did every imaginable action that could destroy the English Language. This should be shown in schools, sans bad words, telling little children that they can never ever type like this."

There's another very poorly written fanfic, My Immortal: Bring Me To Life.
And here's my review.
"I didn't want to continue reading and I'm not going to repeat myself, this is one of the most poorly written ever but in entertainment this is simply amusing."

Now here are the reviews which provide 98% of the entertainment and amusement.
"Didn't I flame this...?
Ah, whatever.
The sad thing is that your story has decent spelling, but YOUR SPELLING IN GENERAL is so horrible it makes me want to throw my cat at my computer screen just to get the print off of it.
And seriously? Hot Topic in the Harry Potter world? SERIOUSLY?
Geez, the preps you know must suck, because if you get to actually KNOW PEOPLE, then most of them turn out to be a-okay.
And Amy Lee has a beautiful voice. I shall agree.
"
I 120% agree with you. And yes, I like Evanescene, I happen to have their CD somewhere.

"What's wrong with being a prep? Let's see...odds are I'll go to a decent college...and have a steady career...and be able to get my points across with delicate and beautiful ease...I'm not seeing the problem here."
Apparently, Tara has problems against preps.

"This is the shitty piece of shit I've ever seen in my life.
WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!?
Are you mentally retarded or something? Why the hell should anyone even allow you near a computer let alone on this site. Your work burns your eyeballs. For a writer and fantastic reader like myself, your "fanfic" makes me want to throw up. 

This is degrading. It should be deleted and I cannot believe you wrote one before this too. You've probably killed many innocent people with this crap.

Ahem, so I guess I'm a "pser" and a "prepz."
Because I just flamed this shit.
But in all honesty in your case, you should take this as constructive critisim. This is just horrible pathetic and has no right to be in any category let along Harry Potter, one of my favorite series of all time. I take this as a personal insult. 

And go ahead and sit there and call me and all the other smart people, "prepz and psers." It just goes to show how moronic you are.
I'm brutally fucking honest. You are the POSER, the LOSER, the MORON. STOP FUCKING WRITING YOU WASTE OF SPACE! GO SLIT YOUR WRISTS SOME MORE YOU "GOFF" PIECE OF SHIT, OK!
You are so not Goth by the way.
You are a piece of shit.

Thank you and Goodbye!"
Took the words out of my mouth.

And worse still, this Tara or some Tara wannabe totally destroyed Twilight.
It's in the same format as MI chatspeak and...
*shudders*
Here's my review.

"Use a spell checker, you just press a button. Unless, you typed this whole monstrosity out using a mobile phone. I barely read past Chapter 2. The blatant use of horrendous spelling and grammar makes my eyes bleed, I'm crying blood now! My stomach is currently churning It also makes me want to say very terrible things about you filled with extremely colourful language. I swear, even my sister who's dyslexic spells better than you. This is a waste of space. 
But I have to admit, it provides great entertainment, reviews wise."

And you can probably imagine the rest of the reviews.


DO NOT READ THE FOLLOWING IF YOU ARE EASILY INSULTED OR DISGUSTED. 
I find this review greatly amusing, although I'm a HUGE fan of Twilight but this made me ROFL. I'm not really insulted by this because different people have different views.

Number of Pages in the Book: 498
The First Hint of a Plot that Is Not Bella and Edward's Romance: page 328
When the Plot Actually Arrives: page 372

Approximate Amount of Time Bella and Edward are Romantically Involved Before Bella Is Begging Edward to Turn Her into a Vampire so They Can Be Together Forever: Like, two weeks. Maybe three. The timeline's a bit fuzzy.

References to Edward's Beauty: 165

Broken Down into the following categories -
  • Face: 24  (Favorite adjectives: glorious, heavenly, seraphic)

  • Smile: 10
  • Teeth: 8
  • Muscles: 7

    • Edward's Kiss Makes Bella's Heart Literally Stop: 1
  • Bella Thinks She Isn't Good Enough for Edward: 6

  • Bella and Edward Argue About Who Loves the Other Most: 1
  • Edward's Inability to Read Bella's Mind is Explained: 0

Don't you find this amusing, comical and hilarious. 
Who would bother to count? You should still read the review, this is only half of it and the reviewer explains why he HATES Twilight. 



Stephenie Meyer is going to be on Ellen, yayayayay!! 
I've just realized what a long post I've written.


I wanna watch Quantum of Solace the new oo7 movie, I love James Bond.

It's comments like this that make me lose hope for the human race.

Before I elaborate, some of today's post will be in pictures.
I was playing the Wii and I swung too hard and kinda broke one of the ceiling fan's glass cover.
Mum's pretty pissed.

The damage I did. 
Look at the naked bulb and compare it to the other three.
Nintendo should like put warnings like ' DO NOT INSTALL CEILING FANS, THIS WILL HAPPEN."

Here are some pictures I took while in the car during the trip to Kuantan, Malaysia.
Driving along the federal road and happened to pass by the ocean.
Apologies for the poor quality, bloody phone camera.

My sister, trying to be emo.

Some bougainvillea.


Back to what I was saying.
Read ET's post and I feel ashamed by some Twilight fans language, grammar and their chatspeak.
Team Bella. because it comes with a sexy vampire.. lol
-I have to agree with ET on this one, seriously, WTH? This really made me lose hope of the human race.

In case you're wondering, I'm talking about the Team Bella VS Team Hermione(click here) thread on a forum.
Harry Potter(HP) fans generally provide rational and impartial posts on forums like these.
Likewise I couldn't say the same for Twilight fans. Purple are the ridiculous comments.
Examples below.

"ahem.... wut's so wrong about bein clumsy? cant u b clumsy and still be a role model? the only reason i say this is because i am also very high on the klutzometer. also, course we want to be like bella cuz of edward!!!!! duh. without edward there would be no bella or twilight series so u cant even think about it. the same with HP wut would it be with out harry or ron? nothing. i hav to admit it would be cool to have magical powers, but wouldnt it be cooler to hav a really hot vampire husband who would die for u and a cute werewolf best friend? u hav to see it from my side too. lol"

WOW, the question is on Team Bella VS Team Hermione, who's a better role model.
But you chose Bella because she has a hot vampire husband who would do anything for her and a cute werewolf friend?

"Bella is my role model though. i want to be her when i grow up. cool, brave, Brilliant and in love with edward lol "
This is just priceless, I'm not dissing Twilight fans, being one myself but this is truly LOLS.

"lol i have to say before i go u guys make me laugh...ALOT. lol i hope shes okay, but im having doubts.....lol night c ya !!!! ^^"

"hi im new ,i totally lov everythin he says too ,many r soooo romantic.i lov the one he says in my quote."

This takes the cake.
"OMG I JUZ SO LUVVVV EDWARD SO MUCHHH. He's so HAWWT and romantic. I LUVVV EDWARD CULLEN!!!!!!1!!!!!!111!!!!!!!!!111!!!!!!!!1111!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG wait it should b OME OME OME OME OME(Oh My Edward!)!!!!"

To summarize what I've found out from reading various Twilight forums, threads. Twilight fans do not know how to spell, use proper punctuation and basically their posts are typical of the above.

Just so you know, I'm on Team Switzerland, as in neutral. Bella is brave, loving and selfless. Hermione is intelligent and she stands up for her rights. I'm not saying that Hermione's smart and Bella's dumb, both of them are equally smart in their own ways. Though only have read three books of the HP series and read all books of the Twilight saga, I cannot say much about Hermione.


PS; Thanks ET for giving me the inspiration to write this post and practically copying the comments from your blog.


Whiny girls who do not even bother to type in full sentences and constantly use chatspeak because they are lazy = dislike

Girls who are literate and actually analyze the Twilight Saga fully, appreciating it for both its good and bad points = love



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHS.

I don't feel like blogging.

Ditto.

Another post in IDK, 5 minutes?

UPDATE
Can't seem to get enough of Jean Paul Gaultier's Madame perfume.
I love Agyness Deyn in this ad, she looks natural in this.
I have a habit of buying magazines like CosmoGirl and Teen Vogue.
It provides entertainment and I like to look at glossy ads and stick thin models.
And the articles they provide are TONS more informative than those in Teenage.
I only like reading Teenage because of Dear Kelly and nothing else.
They're not cheap but they do entertain me for a few hours unlike Teenage which at most 20minutes,
Oh yeah, back to the topic, Madame smells really nice.
I also like Dior's Miss Dior Cherie, smells very flowery and light.
I smell them cos they always appear in Teen Vogue and CosmoGirl.
Which reminds me, I have to go find my CosmoGirl, I want to stare at the Twilight guys again ;D
Think it's in my cupboard, along with my ginormous stack of magazines.






----------------------------------------------------------



It has to be due to much caffeine, me drinking two cans of Coke just now.
I LOVE my Coke. not Pepsi though.
Coke taste nicer than Pepsi.
I can't sleep, does anyone have anything to do at 1am in the morning?

I changed my welcoming message from Twilight to some book I read.
I only can remember the author's name, Kate Cann.
The book title is either, In the End, Sink or Swim or Diving In.
It's quite a nice quote actually, I'm always on the lookout for pwnsome quotes.
I have an arsenal full of them, not only from Twilight, but others.



Twilight Movie and some crap.

Damn, why does it have to be released Dec 18 here, I'm tempted to fly to the States and watch it on Nov 21.
It's almost a whole month late, if they rate it NC-16, I'll sneak inside if I have to :D
Personally, I think that Edward, Bella, Alice, Rosalie and Carlisle were casted wrongly.
They don't look the part, the actress who portrays Rosalie is too ugly to play the stunning person she is.
I have no prejudices against Robert Pattinson, but he has too high a forehead, Edward's supposed to be perfect. But looking from the trailers, he's gonna be a fantastic Edward, in terms of acting.
Kristen Stewart, Bella, is too fat. Not that I want her to be like anorexic thin, but Bella's supposed to be soft but slender. She doesn't look the part, still.
Alice doesn't look like Alice.
Carlisle looks plain weird.
The only character that was casted correctly was Emmett, but I think they should perm his hair, he's supposed to have curly hair. He does have the muscles, though.
Nevertheless, I do hope that they all can act and DON'T destroy the movie.
Judging from the trailers, they all can act.

Enough about my fangirly ramblings about Twilight.
I'm only into Chapter 3 of Sense & Sensibility(S&S).
It's it kind of tough to read, being 18th century England and all that.
Plus, I'm real lazy to go take out my dictionary and find out the meaning of the words.
The language needs time to get used to, more formal than the modern day novels.
Also borrowed Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, haven't even read the first word yet.
I'm halfway through Pride & Prejudice(P&P), but I need to get another copy, stopped because of exams.
I noticed something between S&S and Jane Eyre, both the male protagonist are called Edward.
It reminds me of one very special character in Twilight ;D
S&S is Edward Ferras and Jane Eyre is Edward Fairfax Rochester
I read somewhere that Stephenie Meyer influenced Edward Cullen with Fitzwilliam Darcy(P&P), Edward Rochester and some other guys. 
S&S, P&P, Jane Eyre, Romeo & Juliet, Wuthering Heights, Anne of Green Gables and some more others influenced some of her books and the character development. 
I particularly can't wait to read Jane Eyre, Mr Rochester is quite similar to Edward in some ways. First, have to finish S&S, I don't like leaving books halfway unread unless it's crap.
I'm gonna add a new heading, To-Do List, superficial, yes, I know.

Miley!

Miley is on Oprah now, YAYYYYYYYY
I personally like Miley better than Selena.
She's prettier than Selena.
So charming.

UPDATE


I know this is very amateurish, but this is one of my favorite quotes from new moon.

I got a Wii, I got a Wii, be jealous.

Dad bought us the Wii because we did well for exams.
We all improved and my lowest was a B4 ;D
My arm and shoulders are all sore from playing tennis on it.
Sorry for not posting in the past few days, busy playing with the Wii.
Dad say he's going to get Guitar Hero and racing game with the steering wheel for us, thanks Dad.
My parents are going to Kuala Lumpur for business, 1Night/2Days.
I swear I'm gonna trash the house and when they come back, the house will be turned upside down.
Asked my Mum to buy Paramore's 2 albums and buy Famous Amos by the kilo.
Tomorrow, going to visit grandmother's house, haven't visit her for such a long time.
Imagine, 2 days without parents, sleep whenever we want to, play as long as we want.

Currently listening to Lil Wayne's Lollipop, I know this song is very degrading to women, but it's quite catchy.
Sad, isn't it, women are being used as a source of pleasure.
If you decipher the meaning, like find out the meaning of the slang, it'll be worse.
All rap songs, by artist like 50 cent, Lil Wayne, Eminem and etc, have the same pattern.
They only rap about women being a source of pleasure and all the actions they could do to them or about money and all they things they can buy with the money.
After listening to a few songs, I got sick of it.
I personally like Kanye West, his songs have meaning rather than the typical ones.

"Bottles in the club, Shawty wanna thug"
That's the only um...suitable lyrics available.

I'm still alive, I'm still alive.

Watch this , listen rather. Though I already posted the lyrics in the previous posts, but still I prefer this version. The acoustic version has more feeling, the original one sounds so polished. Sometimes, I find no purpose in the things that I do. For example, blogging. If you don't blog good enough, it will get whiny reading about other's lives, feelings and whatever. I'm just feeling down today, no, not sad, down. Life is so bleary, bleak, grey and boring. You just go through your daily activities with a big sigh and continuing on. Along the way, things will come and take out the boredom, the bleakness, the bleariness from you and you feel happy/interested again. I don't know what got into me, I'm suddenly feeling like this.
Enough about my emo-ing, let's get on to happier subjects.

I miss Pei Hwa, the comforting green and white decor. The bible verses around that make you feel better, the elevators, the 7 stories, the Shell petrol station, the hawker centre, the classrooms, the teachers, Ms Loh especially, the hall, and everything about it. You don't know a good thing till it's gone.
I heard that the good teachers and preachers quitted. I got this from youtube, I believe it because of the current disgusting principal.
"Oh man... You guys are SO lucky you have graduated. The new principal is driving us MADDDD. She changed EVERYTHING - the fulscap paper(or w/e you spell it), homework diaries. Most of the good teachers, preachers quitted last/this year, including Mr Farhan, Pr. Mike, Pr. Ong, etc."

WTF??? The new principal which I shan't name cos she'll be tainting my blog. How can she effing change the foolscap paper, the homework diaries???? It's/A/TRADITION, YOU/ DON'T /CHANGE /TRADITIONS. And here's the reply posted by preacher Mike on youtube.
"Hi Legend ? remember me huh? Preacher Mike.
Just for your ears, we didn't quit.
The school P and the Church leaders made changes
we couldn't accept and yet do a good job. Im now at ACS (P)Barker Road.
I run into quite a number of you around this area and think of you often. Great to know you all continue to remember God "In whom I can Trust' Do that at all times, you will always succeed. Preacher Mike"
I shall control myself and not put in all the colorful language I have learnt in my years. You disgusting skunk bag, how can you make changes? Miss Chan was perfect till you came and effing changed everything, the uniforms, the foolscap paper, the homework diaries and worse of all, the teachers and preachers. You made such awful, horrendous, terrible , abhorrent, gut-wrenching and revolting changes that you make me want to puke out my lunch. The changes were so terrible that you made them leave, and I liked Mr Farhan, Pr Mike and Pr Ong.
You are the worst person that could come to this school, URGGH.

Bum Bum dee Dum, bum bum dee dum dum.

Um....My mum went to see my teacher, Ms Tan said that my English was good ;D
That's all, I can't post.

Brad Pitt is effing hot.

Like duhh. 
He looks darn good on TV, Mr and Mrs Smith.
Ellen is uber funny.
And my mum said Nick Jonas is hot.
hahas


lalalalalas

Oh no, I can't think of a title.

UPDATE.
OMG JONAS BROTHERS IS ON ELLEN, OMG OMG OMG.
OMG JOE IS SO HOTTTT!!!!!!!!1!!!!!111!!!!!!!111!!!!
Now, I'm just acting like Suchi, but I have to admit, Joe is effing hot.
Whatever, I'm off to watch ;D


What happened to my title thinking talent?
I just read this very good book called Good Girl-Laura Ruby.
I already read it, just borrowed it again to read again.
Some parts are quite sexually explicit but nothing you can't stomach especially if your family discusses sex or private body parts during dinner.
According to Amazon it has a 4 star rating, but I would rate it 4 1/2 stars because it deserves to have a sequel. The author has set the ground for a sequel.
Damn, and who doesn't like Luke, he's hot, but Edward's hotter :D
For once, it's nice to have the guy developing feelings for the girl.
Not like other novels where the girl develop feelings for the guy.
I like this line/quote
Luke: You dumped me, remember?
Audrey: How could I dump you when we weren't even together.

Though it's quite a common line, but something about their friends-with-benefits/hooking up wherever they have a quiet space relationships make it so riveting.
You have to read it to understand it although some parts make you want to cringe.

End-of-years results has so far been satisfiable.
I hope I could get a 70% mark and above for the report book.

There's this songs that remind me of Twilight & New Moon, depends on how you look at it, it can be applied to both books.

Flyleaf- All Around Me
My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you

This fire rising through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place

The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you owe me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed

That proves it, Singaporeans are smarter than Americans, in Math at least.

I was bored last night, so I went to Google questions Grade 7 do, 12 years old.
Here are some examples .
Grade 7 Maths Questions.
1) Three ducks and two ducklings weigh 32 kg. Four ducks and three ducklings weigh 44kg. All ducks weigh the same and all ducklings weigh the same. What is the weight of two ducks and one duckling?

2) Mary has $50.00. She goes to the mall and buys lipstick and then she buys shampoo, which is half the price of the lipstick. She then spends half of what she has left on a purse, leaving her with $15.00.
How much did the shampoo cost?
How much did the lipstick cost?

3) Marvin's Taxi Service charges $0.30 for the first kilometre and $0.05 for each additional km. If the cab fare was $3.20, how far did the Taxi go?

This is by far, the most hilarious.
Joan and her friends are having a party. She has 9 friends, and they are planning to get a pizza pie. A pizza pie contains 16 slices. 4 of Joan's friends would like to eat 2 slices, and the rest will eat one. How many pizza slizes are left over? Also, how many inches of pizza would they each get from the left over pizza if each slice is 8 inches. Joan doesn't eat her her slice.
This is Grade 6 standard(P5). Can you believe it? I did this in what, P3 or P4.


Let's see what 16-17 year olds do.
Grade 11 maths.
Allie has an income which is five eighths that of Basil. Allie's expenses are one-half those of Basil and Allie saved 40% of his income. What is the percentage of his income that Basil saves?

Serious? This is what 16 year olds do, Wow. I'm truly and amazingly surprised. I did this in what, P4-P5.

Let's see what Grade 5 do, Primary 4.

1) Jenny found 17 seashells at the beach.
What is 17 rounded to the nearest ten?

2) Mr. Lang planted 35 rows of corn. There are 15 corn plants in each row. How many corn plants is that in all?

3) 4,734÷18

4) When Mr. Murphy pulled into the parking garage to park his car, the time stamped on his ticket was 10:12 a.m. The time when he left the garage that afternoon was 5:43 p.m. What length of time was Mr. Murphy’s car in the parking garage?

Isn't this humorous? Seriously so easy? Better still, it's from some Virginia state assessment thingy. This is the standard used to assess their students, amazing.

Now let's see what do 8th Graders do, 13, I believe.
1) The school auditorium was 78
full. What percent of the auditorium was full?

2) Travis is three times as old as Anne. Mary is three years older than Travis. If Mary is 39 years old, how old is Anne?
See?

The Warlords is a very gory and violent movie. It is creeping me out, cringing as I type. My parents are watching it. Red Cliff is nicer and not as violent.
*shudders* People killing each other, I don't even want to type it out.

I can't think of a title, so help me think of one.

Went ice skating with Jocelyn, Liting and Serning. There was something wrong with my ankle, couldn't really skate well. For some reason, Ser Ning and Liting were laughing at things I said. Was it really that funny? Borrowed some books than went home.
Currently watching National Treasure Book of Secrets, it's quite nice.
Till then.

I'm absolutely bored.

This is a plea to all chatspeak users, please, I'm begging, please don't rape the English Language.
Is it annoying to read people toking lyke tis. 
But really, if you are not good at spelling, install a spell checker for IE, FF and Safari comes with it.
It improves spelling too.

Watched the new Twilight Trailer. 
I'm screaming.
I have a very positive feeling that this movie is going to be fantastic.
But bloody hell, why does it get released Nov 21 in the States and Dec 18 here.
LIFE'S NOT FAIR.
But really, was life ever fair?

The Financial Crisis

It is kind of sad that banks are falling, Lehman Brothers, Bear Sterns, Freddie and Fannie Mac. AIG is lucky to have the Government 's loan.
My parents are complaining about the high prices, inflation and all.
It is annoying to hear then whining of the high prices. 
This is all they can talk about after exams are over since they can't nag anymore.
But really, we are to blame.
We borrow money from banks, don't pay them back and they go bust.
I mean, one person is fine but imagine billions, obviously the bank will go bust.
My Dad was complaining of the stock shares dropping and I told him to buy now because if he buys lows and sells high.
He followed my advice and I think fiance will be a good career path for me. 
Is anyone up for a tennis game at 8pm?

I don't feel like doing Chinese tuition homework, it's torture.
I'm on page 2 of Sense and Sensibility. 
Remind myself to find Little Price and Pride and Prejudice.
