Mothercreature's Birthday today and we're going to Tatto for dinner...

I'm dying for a good piece of meat nomming.

So many things to do... so little time.

By the way, has anyone noticed how Michael Cera and Jesse Eisenberg look almost identical?

And get this: Socially defunct guys have indie-cred.

10 things to expect when you're dating a Cera/Eisenberg Guy.

And between you and you and you and you and me, Zombieland is TOTALLY KICKASS!

Yesterday, I admitted to having bawled my eyes out over random acts of kindness I had read on GivesMeHope.

Which means, inside this cold hard exterior are soft squishy bits. BUT YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT!!!! bwaaaaahahahahaha!!!

How do you know you have Bahasa Melayu fail?

... 'Fail Roster' found in the rehab clinic of University Hospital is not FAIL. It's FILE.

So I am physically fatigued. Right now I hate my body because it refuses to comply with my daily activities. BAH TO YOU BODY! BAHHH!!

On a completely random note:

http://www.givesmehope.com

I read one and went "Ehuhm," *bawl eyes out for 2 minutes*

really touching shit like this GMH.

Life gives you lemons because you strafe off doing PD2 until 1:10 AM on the day of double-barrel classes...

Oh, dear Poncyprincypoo, I loathe thee and thine anal retentivity.

I am betting that the rest of my class have not completed their drawings either and that makes him the most awful lecturer EVER.

Poop and gonads, man... Poop and gonads.

*headdesk*

Add-ons:

Prince Pros - He's too kind when it comes to seriously late submissions hahahahaha...

... and this means he ain't such a douchebag after all. He may be Prince but he is the King of Analretentiveland.

Turns out that 'VG' means 'very good' and it's for the grading scheme. It is not in any way affiliated with the fire safety code and stuff.

2009-11-07T12:02:00.002+08:00

9 to 6 classes all week next week. I think I'm in pain...

2009-11-06T22:59:00.002+08:00

Item 1:

Red bag or blue bag...

... Red. :D

Item 2:

Have decided to write down the list of friends I trust with my life. The rest can blip in and out for all I care. This list will be kept near me at all times and it will hold a line or two of these persons best features.

You may not know who would be on this list because I cannot tell you.

Item 3:

Leeturt composed again and it's ABOUT TIME~!

2009-11-05T12:32:00.002+08:00

The air-conditioning in my class was made to give people frostbite so if I come home with less a finger or two, you'll know who to blame.

*shivers*

It's never constant, one day it's cold and the next day it's burning hot. Welcome to Malaysia, kids. The temperature inside buildings may rival the harshest of the most harsh Arctic environments when the outside stays relatively the same except you get the clouds getting personality disorders. Rain, no rain, rain, no rain, rain, no r- raaaaaain...

So there we go. Gotta love this country.

I also want to have a nap. I guess I'll be swimming tomorrow.

New on the album wishlist:

26, Maduro and Distance and Comfort by Ben Kenney.

That's 3 albums :D

He. Is. GOOD!

A few days ago, some genius decided to chuck his white chicken in my area. This white chicken thought it was cool to hang out in my garden or the garden of the house next to mine which is under construction.

We chased it out of our compounds several times as it is yet it comes right back. I shall now proceed to call it Boomerang Kari Ayam or BKA for short.

So BKA is a small, well fed looking, fluffy white chicken. Everytime I see it, like a retarded child, I scream 'CHICKEN!!!!!' mainly because I'm a budak bandar and live chickens are completely alien to me. As are cows and goats. This behaviour is especially apparent when I have to go back to Kelantan for the holidays.

Anyway, my cat is oblivious to BKA because everytime BKA makes an appearance the cat is asleep at the backyard. Yes, my family and I like out greeneries, we're not fond of tiled concrete as a hard moat around the house. I'd rather have a real moat with crocodiles. Whoops, I segwayed a bit there, now where was I? Oh, yes, BKA.

Now, my point to this all is that I didn't even bat an eyelash when I thought of slaughtering it for actual Kari Ayam...

... Mommy, does that make me an axe murderer?

:((((((((

How do you know that you're old?

You can't be bothered to go clubbing (not that I ever bothered anyway... haha)
You prefer to sit at home enjoying your alone time (Or that's just me reveling in my hermitness)
You cant be bothered to spend money on going to concerts of bands that don't make you bat an eyelash (meh)
Money is VERY important to you, so much more important than fun (really, really... not really)
Your work comes first (second actually)

So there it is. I'm 22 and I'm acting a lot older.

Clubbing is overrated.

P/S Droog Designs are picking up Interns too... D'you think they'd pick me for Internship in less than a year? I wonder if Internships are s'posed to be in Malaysia only... I would LOVE to work at Droog.

2009-10-31T17:18:00.002+08:00

Remember in this post I said I wasn't going to go out until I finished up all my work?

Well, I lied.

Go figure.

Btw, some items crossed out. It's not much but it's a start...

Today my cousin quoted something most ridiculous.

She said that the guy conducting the Nikah* said as a wife you must always smile at your husband. When he walks in the room, you must smile. When he somethingsomethingsomething you must smile. If you don't smile, you go to hell. Then she said part of the Nikah procedure states that a man is allowed to beat his wife.

I have nothing but the utmost disdain for this. Nowhere in the Quran does it say these things. Safe to say that what the general populace is practicing is NOT Islam but some sick lovechild of the religions of pre Islamic Middle East.

* Nikah is part of a traditional Malay wedding and is followed with the Persandingan which is basically there to show off the bride and groom to the whole kampung as a declaration of 'hey, these two may now bump uglies without you tsk-ing them'.

Personal ~~Slave~~... uhhh... Assistant.

Criteria:

TBA on individual basis + must drive and own car + be able to do the 12 labours of Hercules.

Sigh... C'est impossible!

My quote of the day, also a brainfart:

It's easy to get into a part when the character mirrors your personality. It's when you have to play a part you think you absolutely cannot pull off and then do it with the utmost finesse. Now that's magic.

This made me laugh SO HARD I headdesked.

2009-10-26T09:00:00.003+08:00

So I didn't do the cake yesterday because I was busy strafing work. Yes... I will do it sometime this week no doubt, for fear the wrath of the Mothercreature... dun dun DUNNNN...

What did I do?

I updated by Flickr portfolio and finished up the "Spartan Garden Lounge" that you see in the pictures above and signed up to LinkedIn and Coroflot which I will update when I feel like it.

Materials:

- Metal

- Squishy shiny foam thing

Other than that, I didn't finish my colouring as expected but I did decide on the colour scheme... I should also decide the colour scheme to go for the Conference Room I will be drawing around 2pm-ish, It's gonna be a very high tech Conference/Meeting room. Hampehh... Malas la nak ber-PD2. -- I have decided to bum PD2 today. Doing my work at home is much more fun.

Check it, Marcel Wander's company is hiring INTERNS for Interior Design! Sadly, it's in Amsterdam. I would love to go but degree blom habis. I've still got two years but in the mean time, here's my online Flickr Portfolio!

2009-10-25T13:57:00.002+08:00

I have to bake a plain butter cake so that I can use the leftover purple icing... :|

... tapi malas. But I guess I have to so I'll do it petangish.

I have to photocopy a pencil drawing so I can colour it in with colour pencils. I do so hate presentation drawing... D:

... tapi malas. So I'll do it tomorrow morning.

I cleaned out my cupboard and am getting rid of clothes I don't wear anymore and I realised just how much of a T-shirt and cargos person I am. Say 'taknak' to dress-up clothes until you have an occasion to dress up for.

I have to buy and send out a box each of Lipton and Boh tea to a friend in Morocco... I have no idea how much postage will cost nor the time it takes to actually GET to Morocco.

And finally,

I need to compile all my recipes and chuck them into a file which means I have to go to Tesco and do a little bit of stationary shopping. One day I'll turn it into a cute little book for myself because I know a printer who does perfect binding. Each recipe will come with a picture which means I need to take pictures and dress the food pieces up before I can take a picture... A'la professional sikit la kan?

Here's to a long week ahead.

w/ full lights

I think this looks pretty good, don't you?

I just need to add on extra bits like random foods and appliences to make it look awesome.

It's an apartment kitchen:

Colour scheme - White and Beige

Materials - Metal, Glass, Acrylic Laminate, Swanstone (High Gloss White), Niro Granite Tile (Yura Foggy)

Stainless steel appliances

Kitchen entrance on the left and door to the Utilities, Laundry and Maid's on the right.

Problem: The actual colours of each material is more striking but autocad made it look really subdued and flat. How to fix??

2009-10-22T17:01:00.003+08:00

Nothing to yowl about this time but as far as updates go,

I made brownies and have dubbed them Sha's super TOP SECRET magical chocolate brownies. No it's not 'space' magical. It's less stellar and more unicorns and rainbows.
I have a tonne of things due first week of next month and I'm shocked that October is just flying by.
I guess I wont be a Droog this year. I've no time to go and buy the necessary items for the costume. Bah. I guess I could just go as a nonconformist.
Bobby Chin irritates me, I've no idea why.

That is all. Brownies are for sale and made to order but price is TBA.

Sekian,

Oh and P/S I'm watching Double Trouble by Logi and Monti on the 7th of November at Actor's Studio Bangsar Lot 10. YAY YAY!

Hello, my name is Sha L'strange. I opted for David Bowie eyes, I walk funny, I think out of the box, I couldn't care less about how I look, comfort before beauty is my life and I want Toe shoes because I hate wearing shoes and it's the closest I can get to walking barefoot everywhere without getting pieces of 'concrete-jungle' shrapnel in my delicate footsies...

I'm a closet-nudist bohemian hippy stuck in a bourgeois dominant country where stupid people seem to breed.

I also still want to be the Supremo of the Universe, one can dream.

Zulkifli Noordin is a MORONNNNNNNN...

So are all the other hypocrites in the Malaysian Political scene.

THIS is one of the reasons why.

Please, do Google his face so that you're prepared to sneer condescendingly when you see him in public. Also, feel free to remark loudly on his stupidity. He can't do anything, he's daft.

On college assignments,

I've been tasked to do a research report on a designer of my choosing for Studio Practice 3: Furniture. After much browsing around via Wikipedia first and then the net, I narrowed the list down to Marcel Wanders. I would've loved to do one on Phillipe Starck but so would everyone else. Other than Wanders, Maarten Baas and Eero Aarnio was also under consideration.

The thing about browsing for information on a designer that catches your eye is that as you progress with the information, your like for that designer increases exponentially, though since he's a Dutch, he's not as beautifully witty as the Britons. I wish he were though because his interviews are dry.

He's was quoted as the next Phillipe Starck BY Mr. Starck himself and has collaborated with several famous brands around the world, designing everything from wallpaper to appliances. A truly talented multidisciplinary designer.

I think multidisciplinary is the life of anyone controlled by their right brain, though. Myself, for example, I write, bake, draw, design and everything else in between. I may not do everything very well (I suck at drawing) but with more practice, it should get better. Should.

Also, Marcel Wanders is very good looking for a 40-plus year old man.

5.1 Assignments + Freelance Jobs + Dessert Catering = Busy

Busy = Happy = Good Kind of Stress

Good Kind of Stress = Lack of Emotionally Things

Lack of Emotionally things = Great Balls of Joy.

Also wik,

TGI Friday's sucks ballsacks, went there the second time after a really long time for an assignment and it still sucks balls.

Until I get sick of it, this is my morning jive tune. hahaha

hahaha...

You're such a silly woman, put the lime in the coconut and drink em all up...

wooooooo-oooooo... hahahahahhaha

Add-on:

I will be VERY VERY VERY VERY depressed if this cock-up of a 'disability' stops me from diving... SO depressed I might just stay holed up in my room forever and not want to see the light of day.

And another thing, most doctors don't know jack shit about anything.

It's the attack of lethargy caused by genetics.

Women's predisposition to bleeding out of their nether regions

and

S(tupid)pinal M(ajor)uscular A(ss-pain)trophy Type 3.

Oh, my, you thought I was lazy and moody because I like to be lazy and moody?

Fokken banana.

I'm going to buy a treadmill. Anyone has a second hand one that I can scrutinise before purchase?

Things that need to be gotten on to:

- Walkies

- Swimming

- Exercisy activities

- Indulging in magical brainfood.

MICHELLE NG! WHERE ARE YOU?!?!
