Ah, well; it's always  been like this, huh? Ending of a year & a beginning of another year.

Ttyl, then . ♥

BOOM.
I'm bored, so I'm updating my blog. I don't want it to die again.  Dx

Recently, I've taken an interest in Epik High (mostly Tablo, though. XD). 
But it's not their songs I've been stalking(?) (although they're awesome), it's their appearences on variety shows. XD
I have no idea why, though. Maybe it's because they're extremely funny dorks?  
Unfortunately, there are rarely any variety show videos with them on it that are English subbed.  D:

Tablo's real name is Lee Seon-woong.

Hip hop group Epik High's leader Tablo has written a bestseller. His collection of short stories, "Pieces of You", topped Kyobo Book's bestseller list by selling 50 thousand copies in just one week since it was released on November 4th. The book is said to have gone into second printing.

Tablo is said to be very excited about his book's popularity and thanked the readers for their interest and support. His publishing company has also denied allegations that the book is selling just because Tablo is a famous celebrity and said the book stands on its own because of its high quality and Tablo's unique perspective.

The short stories in "Pieces of You" were written when Tablo was attending Stanford University. Tablo's friends say that his first short story "Andante" was applauded by his professor Tobias Wolff during his Stanford years.

-Found all this information when I googled something along the lines of "Epik High Tablo's book". Ahaha, the book sounds good, I guess? Tablo's really smart.  :D


Hm~ I wonder where else I can find some funny Epik High videos...  :/
I'm posting one funny video I found of Tablo & Mithra from Heroine 6, though. :D

I love how Tablo goes "50 mice!" and everyone else stares at him. (Brian from FTTS even 'headdesk-ed') XD

Enjoy!  :D
(I'm off to check whether my brother is playing the PS3 again. If he's not, I'm going to play LBP. xD)

Ttyl, then . ♥

Went out to Ikano at noon today (I think).
Took awhile to find a parking spot since it was freaking full. 0_0
My oldest brother didn't even park in a parking spot; well, in his defence, the traffic-guy gestured to the spot, so... >_>

Anyway, my second brother bought a pair of black slacks/khaki pants at Brands Outlet for his part-time job -- and omgwtf, did the screen view just get smaller? (...did I press something?)
MOVING ON.
My oldest brother also bought a pair of light brown khaki pants since there was a 'Buy 1 Free 1' sale-thingy.
I didn't buy anything there, though. ):
I wanted to buy a belt there but I couldn't find any plain ones.
The ones I saw there were too ... hideous. 

After that, me & my brothers went to Popular (the main reason I went to Ikano in the first place) to buy my stationary for next year.
Actually, I didn't even know what to get. So, I asked my brothers to help me pick out stuff. XD
My oldest brother picked out 1 black and 1 blue pen for me (0.7, Uni Laknock).
Then I went to get a mechanical pencil; second brother pointed at the Pentel section when I wasn't sure which kind I should buy. Ended up picking a black 0.5 one.  :D

Funny thing happened; 
My oldest brother asked me to go find a green basket, my second brother said that there were at the cashier/counter. So, I went all the way to the front counter but found no baskets; I was confused then.  ._.'
Then I walked back to the stationary section, only to find some stacked up green baskets near the pencil box area. I thought, "Wtf? I went all the way to the front counter and it's just here? -_-".
So, yeah; stupid me, eh? 
*headdesk*

Anyway, ended up buying 1 black & 1 blue pen, a mechanical pencil, an eraser (Pentel, Light), a UHU glue stick,  correction tape & a short ruler. (:
My oldest brother bought a few stuff and an architectual magazine. (Architectual, figures.)
Second brother didn't buy anything. :l
*and I just realised that I forgot to buy those plastic book covers... -.-*

Wanted to buy a notebook there but my oldest brother said that they were cheap-looking and over-priced there or something. 
So, he said that he would take me to Kinokuniya to buy a notebook and a pencil box.  :D :D
It's in KL, though. & I have no idea when we'll go.

& renerene, I could've just bought the same pencil box as you then. XD
...which reminds me, I think I have to write my name on all my exercise books soon...
-insert screaming here-

By the way, do you think Japanese-made stationary is the best kind of stationary?
'cause my oldest brother thinks so and I think so, too. XD
& renerene agrees! ♥
So, do you?  

-damn, the strawberries & whip cream I was eating just finished. -.-;-

That's all, I guess? 
:D


Ttyl, then . ♥

No, I'm not in love or anything like that. *laughs*
The title of this post is merely a song title. (:
The song 'Love Mode' is by a band named Clazziquai;

"Clazziquai (Hangul: 클래지콰이; Classic+Jazz+Groove) is a Korean fusion band that combines several genres including electronic music, acid jazz and house...."
(Clazziquai @ Wikipedia)

Plus, I just found out that Tablo from Epik High raps in this song. 0_0
I have no idea how I didn't realise that before...
*headdesk*

Anyway, if you want to listen to the aforementioned song; here's the video. ^_^v

Besides that, I've been having some ... problems with posting a banner I made last night.
Once I upload it on Photobucket, it becomes smaller than usual. & I already tried to make it the biggest size... -_-
Plus, I can't post the picture like normal (as in, just browse and edit the image then shrink to fit) since my blog layout is from Blogskins.
Sad, isn't it? 
-.-*

Meh, I'll try again tonight, I guess.
For now, I'll just watch some videos of DBSK on variety shows & search for more Clazziquai music videos on YT. 
:D


Ttyl, then . ♥

My mum, me & second bro.  :O

Okay! 
Finished with posting pictures here. (Told you it was a few. XD)

The rest of the photos I bothered uploading are here; Cameron Highlands (08)
Enjoy!  (:


Ttyl, then .  ♥

YAAAAY ~
I'm back from C.H.!  8D

Haha, I'm actually happy that I'm back. Didn't expect to be when I went. 
Anyway, I brought back strawberries from C.H. & there's even a strawberry jam tart waiting to be eaten downstairs.  XD
& YES; there are sweet strawberries. Not all of them are sour.  -_-

The first day there was pretty ... gloomy for me, as well as my family.
We didn't really like the apartment we had to stay in.
I mean, it was okay. But the bathroom was so cramped, there was no fridge & the bed made me feel itchy when I slept on it. =='
At least there was Astro. Haha.
Me, my parents & my oldest brother played Scrabble at night. I ended up quitting because I felt sleepy. My dad won the game while my brother came in second. XD
(Sad; my brother could've won if he didn't have to minus marks for not using a letter. d:)

The second day was better, I guess.
My brothers supposedly went hiking (wanted to follow them, but decided that I was too lazy to get up early) while me & my parents went to a strawberry farm (or whatever you call it) and a park.
The park actually has a jungle walk-thingy.  :D
After all that, me & my parents went to fetch my brothers.
My parents asked how the hiking went. But my brothers just answered, "boring".
They didn't actually went hiking, as it turned out.
More like; they walked up a mountain (there was already a path), went to a butterfly farm, went to a strawberry farm & went to the B.O.H. tea plantation.
At least, my second brother said, he took a picture with a scorpion.
XD!

The third & last day which is today...
was okay?
I went strawberry picking. 
Didn't turn out that fun as I thought since there wasn't much strawberries to pick. :l
In the end, my mother asked one of the people in charge to pick some strawberries for us. XD
But, I managed to find some strawberries after some climbing here and there. 
My brothers were waiting for me & my parents at the shop.
Before we left, my oldest brother bought 10 strawberry jam tarts. :D :D
Then we left ~~

And here I am now.  :D

Took some pictures when I went on my 'journeys' on the second day. Will *hopefully* upload some when I rest up. Am too damn tired now & I just want to use my laptop in peace, thankyouverymuch.

NOW,
I'm off to blog hop and comment on my friends' blogs.  8D


Ttyl, then . ♥

C.H. = Cameron Highlands  

Anyway, yeah; going to C.H. tomorrow! I'm excited actually. :D :D :D
But it's a 3 hour drive from here to there. D:
Ah, well, at least I'll have my handphone with me; I can listen to music on the way there. 
& just imagine... all those strawberries. *Q*

Hahah! 
Plus, it's cold (not really cold per se; cool to be exact) in C.H., so I'm really, really happy. 
I prefer cold over hot; always. ^_^V

Anyway, I better go pack my stuff now.
Even though it's only 6pm now; I guess it'll be better to pack early, right? :D
Hopefully, I don't forget to bring anything important ~~

Will take lots of pictures (hopefully)!
8D


Ttyl, then . ♥

HAH. It's not the freaking Gwen Stefani song yet since it's not four in the morning.  :D :D :D

...I think I've gone high from lack of sleep.  -_-

Yeah, can't sleep; so I'm blogging at 3am.
Y'see, I've been having these problems for awhile. I sleep late and I wake up early. ...then I fall back asleep again. 
But I have no idea why. . .  ):
Nowadays I can only fall asleep from the hours of 2am to 6am.
& when I sleep at 5/6am, I'm forced to pray first, then I go to sleep.
....and wake up 12pm...

It's annoying.
Plus, I need to overcome this problem before 5th of January. School's going to start then and I need to go to school in the morning.  D: 

On a lighter note; I'm going to Cameron Highlands on the 22nd 'till the 24th of Dec.
That means, in two more days I'll be going.
Although it's only for two nights, I'm happy because I'll finally get a reasonable holiday.
and not to mention yummy strawberries

Ah, guess I'll try to fall asleep by listening to songs again.
'nights.  :D


Ttyl, then . ♥

I'm feeling exactly what the title says right now.
Envy.
And the more I'm envious, the more I feel like I'm not really special at all.

Warning: Excessive ramblings ahead. Continue at your own risk.

Okay, okay. Let me clear this up for you, the reader.
Basically, I'm implying that my brothers are special and I'm not. 
I mean, everytime I look at it, my brothers have their own unique talents and well, my talents are mostly similar to theirs.
It's like I'm a mixture of them both and that really doesn't make me feel special at all.
Yes, I joke about it with my family and sometimes my friends; but when I truly thought about it today... 
I hate it.

Let's see; my oldest brother loves art and his own art skills are amazing. 
My second brother is mostly interested in music & football. He can play the guitar, piano and harmonica. (He can't read piano notes, though. He never went for piano lessons. & I'm not sure about the harmonica, but he owns one.) He can play football, but prefers watching it more.
Then there's me.
My similar talents;
I can draw and play the piano.

I can also play netball, which doesn't really count since my brothers would never really play it anyway...
The only thing that I can do which isn't similar is that I can understand Japanese and write Korean.
But those don't count either because my Japanese isn't fluent and I can only write a bit of Korean.

I'm plain, aren't I?

My personality is also a mix of my siblings; but it'll make me feel worse, so let's just not dicuss it.

My mood will probably change sooner or later. But I'm still positive that I'm worthless.
So, yeah. Guess I'll end my ramblings, then go down to eat alone. (parents & brothers went out to the new Giant...)


Ttyl, then . ♥

I'm bored, so I'll just update to revive my soon-to-be dead blog.
Um, Rene came over to my house today; it was quite fun. Haha. (:
Played PS3 (LittleBigPlanet & Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe) and then went up to my room to use our laptops. (lol)
*seriously Rene; why do the words on my blog look so tiny on your laptop? Mine looks fine. -.-

Uh, hmm...
My second brother is probably playing with his band at his Prom now. I think it's held somewhere in Tropicana? >_o
I wanted to go, too. But the entrance fee is RM30, I think. -__-
...which sucks 'cause I can't see my brother playing the guitar and singing. ):

He's supposed to play and sing to the song 'Kids' by MGMT.
Ahaha, I'm actually quite addicted to that song already. XD
My oldest brother introduced this song to my second brother and I & in a few days of listening to this song, I started to like it. (:
Apparently, my second brother likes it too. Plus, the song has a nice beat. :D


MGMT "Kids" Video

Credit: jsalmon @ YouTube

Surprisingly, I found out that the video is unofficial. Haha, just skimmed through the information box, "...This is an unofficial video for MGMT. The guy and the girl are not MGMT."
I thought that this was the official video the first time I saw it because it's well-made. :O

& Rene; Ahaha, you're now addicted to this song too, huh? XD

Meh, I guess I'll end this post now. (:


Ttyl, then . ♥

Uh, nothing much happened today.
So~ I have nothing really interesting to report. ):

I'm planning to make a blog header, though. ^_^V
I can write 'Dong Bang Shin Ki', 'Epik High', 'Big Bang' and 'SHINee' in Hangul (Korean) now. :D
It isn't really hard to write in Hangul, but I keep practicing. 
Haha.

The reason I learned to write those band names in Hangul is for my blog header. 
Heh. I've actually written the band names in blue marker already; outlined them with red pen, too.
But, I don't want these versions. XD

I want & need PhotoShop.  
PhotoScape just isn't that nice as PhotoShop. ):

Ah, yeah; I'm going to get McFlurry with my second brother later at 11.30pm. ^_^V
It's going to be the first time being in the car with my second brother as the driver, haha.
He said that we're going at 11.30pm because there's a football match at 12am.
Figures.

Haha. So, that's it I guess.
I'll edit this post again if anything interesting happens later. (:


Ttyl, then . ♥

So, so, so, soo happy now!
Finally, I'm wearing contact lenses!!!

It actually took me awhile to wear them. But it's worth it. ^^
Now, I don't need to wear glasses to see clearly.  XD

Ahaha, I better go off now. Going to Rene's house at 11.
& I haven't eaten breakfast yet. ):
Blame the contact lenses.


Ttyl, then .  ♥

Ahah, happy happy ~  XD
Why? 'cause I have contact lenses now!  :D
Going to try 'em on later tonight. Kind of lazy to call my brother now... He's supposed to help me wear the contacts. :T
Plus, I'm too busy watching videos on YouTube. :DD

Ah ~  What to write now? 
I'm stumped.

...for some reason, I'm actually looking forward to school next year. 
I mean, new school, new people... hopefully new friends?
Just hope that all my friends in DJ1 will still remember me!  (:

Ahaha, short post for today.
Going out with friends tomorrow, hope it goes well. (:


EDIT: Okay, putting on contact lenses turned out harder than I thought. 
Whenever I try to put the contact lens on my eye, my eyelids automatically makes my eye squint. -.-
So, when I was really, really freaking close to putting one on; my eye squints and BOOM, the contact lens doesn't go in and it's still on my finger. -__-

Eventually I gave up since it was freaking frustrating.
...I don't know how my brothers manage to do it. -.-

My second brother taught me how to do it, but my oldest brother was supposed to be the one teaching me. Turns out he went out.
ZZZ.
But, at least my second brother was kind enough to help me, right? ^^
Thaaank you. :D (although, you don't exactly read my blog. XD)

Anyway, since I failed earlier & am too tired + lazy to try again; I'll just try again tomorrow.
Planning to wake up early & showering early.
THEN, I'll try again and hopefully, I'll finally get those damn contact lenses on.

Wish me luck.  (:


Ttyl, then .  ♥

Ahaha, since my blog is pretty dead; I'll just post about what I did last Friday, mmkay? (:
You can just not read this post if you want. *shrugs* Doesn't matter to me! :D

Anyway, last Friday I went out with my brothers to One Utama.
Planned to buy books at MPH since my second brother won a discount voucher of RM200 (RM50x4). *cheers*
Ahah, so; I thought I was going to find some interesting books in MPH but sadly, no. =_=
In the end, I bought Volume 4 of Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE; which I ended up finishing in an hour when I arrived home. =.=
My brothers bought J.K. Rowling's new mini-book & a magazine (I think).

After that, me & my second brother went to buy a new PS3 controller nearby. It costs RM189, which isn't really that expensive compared to other places. o_o'
It's white. xD
So now I have one black & one white controller each. *-*
After that, we headed to a music/CD shop. O:
But before that, me & my second brother walked around looking at how much PS3 games cost at shops (oldest brother was already in the music shop with his friend).
And guess what? The PS3 games cost like, RM260+.
RIP-OFF. =__=

Anyway, then we went to the music shop & looked around. I didn't find any interesting CD's, though.
which is mostly because I listen to K-Pop now. ...which is why I went to the Korean/Japanese CD section. :DD
I didn't see any CD's of the normal bands (except DBSK) I like there. ):
I only spotted 3 types of DBSK CD's (whoa) on the table in front of the shelves. I think they were placed there because DBSK is more famous outside of Korea than other bands/singers? & because a lot of people buy their album(s)?
...idk... >_o

Anyway, the Mirotic album I saw was completely different from what I expected. It was another picture, not the normal picture of the album I saw on the Internet; ...which was weird.
...or maybe I just got my information wrong. Oops.
& y'know how much the album cost?
RM115.90 . <--- I think it's because the album had extra stuff along with it; badges & a picture album? O_o;
There were two more albums. I think those were Version B & Version C?
...I don't really know since I don't really care about their albums. -.-
They were kind of... box-ish? 0.0
& they cost RM109.90 . <--- it's cheaper, but still. -.-
*Why are korean albums so damn expensive?? =_=*

After I checked out those albums, I tried to look for other albums of other bands. (Epik High, Big Bang, SHINee, etc.)
But no; I didn't spot any on the shelves. T_T
There wasn't even a BoA album, which was surprising. ._.'
But then again, maybe I didn't check properly. :/
ineedtogetcontactlensesNOW D:<

After that, I went over to my brothers and talked to them. Suddenly, my oldest brother said that I liked K-Pop to his friend; which made me embarassed, so I hit his arm. XD
I took out my handphone awhile later & my brother's friend was like, "Your sister has a phone already?"
My brother; "Yeah, she's already 12 after all."
Then, my bro's friend said something that kind of annoyed me (-.-); "She looks around 14 or 15..."
DO I LOOK THAT OLD TO YOU!? T________T

My oldest brother bought MGMT's album while my second brother bought Enya's album. (second brother said he needed calm music when driving. ._.)
After that, we went and bought Rootbeer Floats at A&W. Second brother bought one for me using his own money.
Thank you. <333
*I swear A&W is only good for their Rootbeer Floats. ._.*

Ahah, then we went home ~
*actually, a funny thing happened on the way home; but I'm too lazy to write more, sorry. ):


Ttyl, then . ♥

To revive my blog, I'll just post some amusing stuff that I found while surfing the 'net. Although, if you hate DBSK or Changmin, I advise you to not read this post. Because, well, the post's about DBSK (mostly Changmin's) replies to fans/UFO's. (x

Note: The ' [brackets] ' are my comments. Heh.

Fan: My hands and feet are freezing TT TT
Changmin: If you were him, would you give permission?? [Yeeeah, would you give permission!? ._.]
