Scream the news from the roof tops, baby.

I AM EXCITED. YOU CANNOT IMAGINE HOW EXCITED I AM.


NOT EVEN LARGE FONTS ALL CAPS-LOCKED CAN TELL YOU HOW HAPPY I AM.


OMG. MY WISH IS FINALLY COMING TRUE.

Obsessed? Who, me? LIES.

I am done here.
I love you.

Sunday 19 April 2009

Lie to me and tell me that it's going to be alright.



And so I ask, "Oh God, is there some way for me to take his place?"
~Permanent - David Cook~



My nephew passed away at 6:40PM today after hanging in there for two weeks.

You are a fighter, a strong one, Muadz. May you be placed amongst the good ones in heaven.

I will cry but I will take solace in the fact that he will be going to a better place now and that he's free from suffering.


I'll be okay, I just need some time.

My only saving grace of last night.

Yesterday was a day full of tears and bickerings.

But, let me tell you this.

HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A CHELSEA FAN SCORNED.

You heard me. You piss me off well enough and my team will screw yours to the ground.

You know who you are. You pissed me off way too much last night, you Arsenal fan. I may be tiny, but don't take advantage of my youth.

This goes out to EVERYONE. You make fun of my team and see if karma thinks your ass is sweet enough to be bitten. If I don't tease your team when they lose, do the same for me. If you can't do that, you're a bunch of pricks.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.


Let's move on to some pictures now.

HI JOEY. I MISS YOU AND YOUR SEXY SELF. COME BACK TO ME SOON, OKAY.


Um, I hate to break it to you, Florent, but that's not the right way of doing the heart hands. Take a leaf from Dave and Neal, yeah?


MR. POTATO! HAHAHA! I LOVE YOU.


You are my hero. I don't care what people call you, I love you. Rawr. You are sexier than that pansy too.

OH HI THERE, MY FACEBOOK FRIEND! *waves* I LOVE YOU TOO!


CAPTAIN AND VICE CAPTAIN. I LOVE YOU TOO.


Dear Petr, we love you. I don't care what people say about you lately, I will smack their faces for you. After that, I will yell "I DID IT FOR YOU!!!" at the top of my lungs.


I LOVE YOU BOTH. THAT IS ALL.


HUDDLES. I MISS THOSE.


CELEBRATION TIME, COME ON!

Okay, back to work, lazy bones. TWO MORE PAPERS TO GO.


Wish me luck!

Saturday 18 April 2009

I should stop wearing my heart on my sleeve.

You think you've heard this before,
I'll try and say it differently,
as long as it comes naturally to me,
It's been making me sad,
Cos I can't find a better way
to speak the words I want to say to you.
~
Heart on My Sleeve - Michael Johns~



I hate hospitals.
EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT BY NOW.


I had to go two hospitals today. I visited my nephew in one hospital and another close family friend in another.

My nephew has in been in the hospital for two weeks already. I really have no idea what happened, but he shows no signs of improvement. I teared up at the sight of the tubes and wires attached to his body (but the tears remained in my eyes, they didn't roll down my cheeks). My mother was sobbing the entire time we were there. Even my brother cried. It was just a sad sight for anyone to see.

He is barely 17, he'll be sitting for his SPM this year. It's so disheartening to see him in that state. I may not be close to him, but I have feelings. My amygdala is functioning well. It hurts.

He is such a good kid. I am just sad that this happened.

I hope he will be alright, regardless of what happens.


A close family friend of ours was admitted to the hospital a few days ago. He had his right leg amputated yesterday. I was at the hospital yesterday as well when it happened. We stayed with his wife who was distraught when he was in the OT. I can understand her feelings. I know I would be in a similar position if that ever happened to anyone I care about.

Yesterday was so bad, I had tears. I'm not used to seeing him in that state. He was strong and fit. Now, he's frail and thin. Seeing him cringe in pain is a foreign concept to me.

He's very close to our family, in fact, he and my dad are almost like brothers. He was there to look after my paternal grandfather while he was in the hospital when my parents were to get married. He's always been there for us. ALWAYS. Seeing him like this kind of puts a knife through your heart.

I got to see how far they cut off his leg. It was below the knee.

I am not going to lie and say "Oh, that didn't affect one bit". BECAUSE IT DID. I am afraid it will happen to me or someone else. I can't imagine myself in that state. I AM FUCKING SCARED.

My father told me that it was a good thing I got to see this because it serves as a reminder/wake-up call. I am taking care of myself.


I wear my heart on my sleeve too much for my own good. I get emotionally attached to people or things. It's in my nature that I am like that. I am sorry if at times I sound so 'emo' in my posts and that pisses some people off but I do feel for people. It makes me sad when I see people in pain.

I know I should stop being so emotional. I even cry when I'm listening to certain songs that remind me of certain people (I do NOT cry to love songs because I get on with life after breakups, I don't need tears for them) because of how much that song means to me or how much that song reminds me of them. I cry to 'Permanent' every single time I hear it because of what the song is about, which is why I ALWAYS skip that song every time it comes on my playlist. That song is so beautiful, I feel like if it gets overplayed, it will lose its entire meaning.

Fact: Everyday, I wear my heart on my sleeve.

Tell me to stop playing that song from Michael Johns, regardless of how beautiful it is.

Please.

Wednesday 15 April 2009

You think you've heard this before?

~ COMPUTER-CHALLENGED MAN SINGS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS EVER.
~ I realised that I clearly haven't told you who computer-challenged man is. HE IS MICHAEL JOHNS.
~ He called himself that so I am calling him that as well.


~ POTATO CHILDREN! LET'S KICK SOME BARCA ASS NEXT!
~ I love Liverpool. Let's remember Hillsborough today.
*observes a minute's silence*


~ Yesterday = BEST DAY EVER. Good times with family + great food = CONTENT ME. Basic math.
~ KIRIBATH CRAVING WAS SATISFIED YESTERDAY. OMG, I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW.


~ Why does he remind me of Cesc Fabregas here?


~ My mother = THE MOST RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING PERSON EVER.

I'm beat, I'm going to study for a while, then it's time for bed!

Sunday 12 April 2009

Did you like the cold?

~ Potato children, wake up. DO NOT DO THIS ON WEDNESDAY. I WILL KILL YOU ALL AND THEN EAT YOU WITH GRAVY IF THAT HAPPENED. I AM NOT KIDDING.

~ You know you're out of the loop when people who are computer-challenged have Twitter accounts.

~ I would like to state here that I will not succumb to peer pressure and get a Twitter account. I am NOT going to jump on the bloody bandwagon.

~ I have a certain reputation to live up to, you know.

~ I want the computer-challenged person to catch up with modern technology and let him have some fun while he's at it. I'm nice like that.

~ More decent photos of my haircut:

BEST PHOTO EVER.


Yas is clearly NOT amused by my antics. HAHAHA.

~ Quote of the week:
"Why does it feel like Adam Lambert is trying to seduce me with his voice? I feel violated"

~ I love you too, you biscuit.

~ Study time!

Friday 10 April 2009

The life that I knew is through.

I'm deflecting. Don't ask me why but I just need to. It's not a want.


~ TEAM POTATO OMG. AWESOME.
~ I'm optimistic about that now. To think that 2 hours before that, I was being a pessismist. WHAT A TURNAROUND.
~ Going to the library and playing with my colours pens makes me feel nerdy and giddy.
~ I think I'm in love again.
~ Then again, it could just be me being the only one feeling that.


Something serious is about to happen and I'm not sure if I can deal with it yet. Death may play a part in it.


Just feel anger, feel pain, feel the sun and the rain, just feel something, oh something.

Tuesday 7 April 2009

Everything else has suddenly taken over.

I deflect.
I analyse.
I lie.
I cry.
I yell.



AND WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE SAY TO ME?

I'm not going anywhere.


The few constants in my life that I am forever grateful for, I miss you so much. You people are my last requests.


It's amazing what music does to you when you're in between reading textbooks and text messages and writing notes.

Sunday 5 April 2009

I'm losing my favourite game.

~ I am tired, mentally and physically.

I wish I could have that luxury of waking up late on Sundays without being berated by other people living in my house with this question "WHAT KIND OF ANAK DARA SLEEPS SO LONG?" when there are other people in my house who wake up much later than me but NO ONE yells at them.

Sigh, wishful thinking. How I love you so.

~ OH WAIT F1 NOW. UPDATE LATER, BYE.

~ Back. What an incredible race. Yay Jenson! Also, Timo Glock is an amusing fellow.

~ Also, can someone tell me why the race started at 5PM instead of 3PM? I HOPE NEXT YEAR, THEY STICK TO THE ORIGINAL TIMING. Had the race started at 3PM, the drivers would have actually been able to complete 75% of the race and hence, they won't have half points. WHO IN THE WORLD GETS 2.5 OR 0.5 POINTS! WHY DO YOU NEED TO SATISFY THE VIEWERS OVERSEAS! I STAY UP AND WATCH THE RACES IN CANADA AND THE UNITED STATES WHEN THEY ARE SHOWN 1AM OR 2AM, WHICH IS WAY PAST MY BED TIME! WHY CAN'T YOU PEOPLE DO THE SAME?

~ I am being perfectly sane, thank you.

~ I totally forgot how amazingly handsome Mark Webber is until I saw him in today's race, walking around and talking to the other drivers while waiting for the rain to subside. Totally reminded me of Michael Johns.

~ I was laughing so loud when Felipe threw a hissy fit. Something about his viser's needing wipes, and one of the team officials kept saying "Felipe baby, calm down, we'll get it done". I don't know, it was something along those lines. IT WAS HILARIOUS.

~ Skizzy might get this:
Twinkle, twinkle little STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!

~ Kimi kind of guessed that the race was not going to be restarted (or maybe his car had some problems?) so he went to the pit garage, change his clothes, ate ice-cream and drank a soda. It was just that adorable.

~ And he also has a tattoo on his right wrist. Looks pretty awesome. Unlike the tattoo of a certain someone I know.

~ The TV commentators are so biased, it makes me want to throw up. Seriously, they're like shoving the "Love Fernando Alonso" and "Love Kimi Raikkonen" fest down your throats, you want to be bulimic. The ITV4 commentators are awesome though.

~ My dad told me to mind my language when I said 'ass' while watching the race. Lewis came out of the car and they mentioned something about his seat being moist and I just said "HELP, MY ASS IS WET!" and my dad was annoyed that I said that. "Mind your language", he said. I just laughed at him.

~ Yes, I realise I am going to hell for that.

~ I just remembered it's the All Souls Day for the Sinhalese community, where they commemorate the dead before the Alluth Avruddak (Sinhalese New Year) kicks in.

~ Speaking of Alluth Avruddak, I am hoping SOMEONE would just magically leave a box of 'kiribath' and 'seeni sambal' outside my room door. I will be the happiest child you will ever meet.

World culture, don't just learn it. Experience it.

~ Last week of lectures. Next week is finals. My plan?
Spend time in the library, studying and making notes with my awesome colour pens while being serenaded by random people.

Good plan, si?

Thursday 2 April 2009

Stupid is as stupid does.

~ You know that appilcation called "We're Related" on Facebook?

You know, the one where you can add any relative of yours who are on Facebook as your relative and you get to define how you are related to said relatives?

Yeah, that application.

I have that application only because 1524379 of my relatives use Facebook and if I ignore one request, another 9385621 requests will come. So I decided to just get that application and save me all that drama.

Yeesh. I don't randomly add applications. You think I am THAT free to do that?
Please. Go wash your brains with Mr. Muscle or something.

Well, yesterday, I got a notification from this application. I wanted to see who added me as a relative this time around.

Boy, I had to do a double-take on that one.

Apparently, I am Barack Obama's fourth cousin once removed.

This is certainly new, considering the fact that all these years, I've been led to believe that my great grandparents were either Sri Lankan-Sinhalese or Malay, not a bunch of ang mohs.

My parents have been lying to me about my ancestors? OMG WHAT? HOW COULD THEY?

I am paralysed!
*sings Thriller*

I have connections in the White House. You have been warned.



~ I finally got a haircut after 87345267 years.

Instead of having long glorious locks like this:


I now look like Kyle Peek this:


I like it. I might consider getting a dye job done as well but we'll see.

And to the stupid Scouser over there, I DO NOT HAVE KYLE PEEK'S HAIR. I AM MUCH MORE ADORABLE THAN THAT.


~ My lecturer was talking about a particular topic which hit home real hard. I mean REALLY HARD, to the point I cried a bit in class. All I wanted to do was just escape and get away from it. So I left before the class ended, which is something I hardly ever do. I just walked all the way to the other block to hand in some things. I cried on the way going and on the way back to the block.

People wouldn't know. They believe that reading the first line of everything I say is the gospel truth about me. Please. Mr. Muscle begs you to use him.

I don't tell you things I don't want you to know, unless we're like-minded, kindred spirits; or we're VERY, VERY, VERY CLOSE. I may let you in just a little but I won't go any further than what you already know, because I REALLY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW MORE.

She's right. That is absolutely THE worst way for a young child to grow up faster.

It is still happening.



~ That 'Music of the Night' studio recording NEVER FAILS TO AMAZE ME, even if I've listened to it 72828154759 times already. Sigh.
