Random Thoughts..

I didnt do much for this holiday.. Initially wanted to balik kampung but that was cancelled.. So just sat ard at home, more like lazying ard at home and went for netball training.. Wanted to shopping but im pretty sure the stores are mostly closed, so what to do.. just eat, sleep and watch tv at home..

Been feeling kinda restless for the past few days and have no idea why.. it could be due to PMS(PostMS).. hehe.. been thinking abt my life and what i need to do this year to make it a better one than the previous one.. i am thinking of taking up some part-time classes but cant make up my mind on which one..

I was just talking unseriously with my mom abt my plans to backpack before i get married and to my surprise, my mum didnt say anything.. if she never say anything, tat means that she is taking it in consideration.. hmmmm... i hope i would be able to achieve it.. so Nina, u ready to become my backpack partner?

Muahaha... the title of my blog says it all..

Met up with Azack for awhile just now to get the photos and vidoes taken at the concert before heading off to my aunts's place.. I was excited to see the pics cos two-third of the pics i have taken were pretty blurred and she also recorded lotsa vidoes using her camera and phone..

As i was viewing the video, there was this part where Brian was interacting with the crowd and i didnt manage to record it.. wanna know why? cos i was busy holding up my placards.. As i was watching the video, i was thinking to myself, "I think this was the part where he actually waved at me." And spot on!! Azack actually managed to record it!!!! I was laffing and smiling ear to ear!!! The classic part was when, he waved and Azack shouted to me, "Dia nampak!", "Dia nampak!" which means, "He saw!, "He saw!" That moment was priceless and Azack managed to capture it.. Even though u made a lousy camera-woman, you definitely managed to capture a priceless moment!!

I Can Die a Happy Woman Now (Part 2)

I AM IN LOVE WITH THE BACKSTREET BOYS MORE THAN EVER!!!

I cant stop smiling since the time i got up from bed. I had a difficult time sleeping cos their songs are so fresh in my head, i was singing inside my heart and my head while i was lying down and i woke up at 7.30am feeling so surreal that last night actually took place.. I actually saw my most favourite band live, the 1st band that made me fall head over heels 10 year ago.. Many would not understand why am i so crazy over them, well, let me tell u, once you go Backstreet, you never turn back.. hahah.. And now, i still have that goofy smile plastered on my face with a dreamy expression re-living every moment that happened last night.

Met up with Azack at Clementi at 6pm due to some delay in getting some materials in making the posters.. My cousin came along too but she started off with a bad mood cos she was having diarrhea. Along the way, we saw teenagers, those who are our age and even older making their way to the Indoor Stadium. I kept telling my cousin, why were they all there, why couldnt it be just the 3 of us.. Why???!!! We had a great start to our journey to the Indoor Stadium due to such a sweet bus driver.. He was like making an announcement to the passengers not to alight at this particular bus stop cos it would be a long way to walk but instead to stop at the bus stop after it.. Those who have already alighted were actually allowed back into the bus just for that one bus stop.. Uncle, you are the best!!!

When we were crossing the road, we could already see a huge crowd forming outside the stadium and there were screaming going on.. The 1st thing we did when we got there was to check out the mechandise, but unfortunately, there were only have T-shirt, cds and posters.. Azack and I ended up buying the T-shirt and there was this ang-moh guy laffing heartily behind us over a remark that Azack made.. We sat outside the stadium to devise a plan to get our camera inside the stadium without getting caught and we decided that we would put in my socks since im wearing a baggy pant and there is no way they would know that there is sthg beneath it. When we got that settled, i quickly took out my vanguard sheet and started writing "I LOVE B-ROK" on it, i was so engrossed doing it that i didnt realise that there was a camera in front of my face.. When i looked up, the camera-woman told me to continue and show it to her when im done.. Since Azack' sisters were such a darling in making us a placards that says "We've waited 10yrs for BSB," we showed it to the camera-woman instead.. She was telling us to smile widely and jiggle it while she shot it.. Our 5 secs of fame but we have no idea which media was she from.. Hmmm...

On our way into the stadium there were security check and i could see from outside that they were using the hand-held scanner thingy and running it thru our body.. So we decided to abort the plan and just shoved it inside Azack's bag.. Guess what? After all those stupid plans that we came up with, camera were actually allowed inside and were not confiscated..

So we came in and we sat down, from the moment i sat down, i could not stop shaking my leg.. I kept looking at my watch wishing for every minute to pass faster so that i could see my beloved Brian.. Amongst our excitement and anxiety, we overheard a grp of girls behind us saying that Ari Wibowo is in the stadium.. We tried to play it cool and were quietly scanning the stadium's seat but when we could not spot him, we decided to ask the girls.. And there he was seated the top with a lady and a small crowd was already forming around him asking for his autograph and pic.. I could see his pink lips from far and he was sooooo cute!!! And he sure do have a great taste in music!! We wanted to go up there but too bad, there were barricades erected in between.. Since there wasnt any opening act, i shall take it that Ari Wibowo was the opening act.. hehe..

So we waited and waited and my watch was already 8pm but there were still no signs of the BSB and people were still making their way in.. My legs kept shaking non-stop, and my watch showed 8.30pm and the lights went out.. We saw fans from behind rushed in front, Azack grabbed my hand and i then grabbed my cousin's, we rushed in front to join the crowd.. AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!! AND THE SHOW BEGUN!!!!!!!!

It is actually giving my goosebumps re-living those moments right now.. They started off with The Call and everyone just went hysterical!!!!! After the song ended, we were told by the ushers to go back to out seats but we stay rooted and those who actually went back, well its their lost.. The 3 of us managed to squeeze thru and were the 3rd layer of pple crowding in front of the stage.. They were so close!!! Everyone knew every lyrics and songs, we could hear the crowds singing along with them and screaming hysterically.. They still have the magic!!

Whenever Brian was in front of us, i would hold out my placards just so that he would see me.. And thank goodness, amongst the crowd, it were only me and Azack holding up our declarations of love.. When they were doing a slow number, Brian was standing in front of us and that was when he saw my sign!!! He looked at it, smiled at me for abt 5sec and waved!!! I WAS IN CLOUD NINE!!! For that mere but precious 5sec, it felt like as though i was the only crazy screaming fans in the stadium.. Azack saw it too!! She can totally vouch for me!! She turned to me and said "I think he saw you!" YES!!!! HE DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything was so surreal!!! The whole experience was just like a dream, sitting here right now re-living every details that happened last night was just like a dream.. If you ask me to tell u in sequence what were the songs the boys did, i would say that i dun remember!! The only thing i remembered was that, no matter what song they were singing, i was just singing along... Savouring everything that was happening with all my senses.. sssiiiggghhhh... if only it could last longer, the time passed so fast even though it was 1hr50mins...

Nick and Brian were very playful with each other.. Whenever Brian stood in front, Nick would pushed him to the back and Brian would stepped forward again and pushed him back.. And there was one time, Howie stood beside them pointed his finger and shook his head.. SOOOOOO CCCUUTTTEEE!!!!!!!! All the guys looked GORGEOUS last night!!! Howie is soooooo good-looking in person!!! Kevin too!! I could see Kevin's eye colour from where were standing, yup! we were that close.. Howie was like looking really intense cos he looked at the crowd in front whenever he sang and he would top it up with his trademark wink... heart-melting!! Oh ya, he actually got off the stage and shook hand with the crowds.. and he could not stop shaing his head in disbeliefment that we are still crazy abt them.. AJ put on eyeliner and had his nails painted black and he had his hair done in a mohawk style with the colour red to dye the standing mohawk part.. Nick's face were red whenever he belted his heart out to sing.. hahah.. This reminded me of one occasion in the concert, before they started singing I Just Want You To Know, he wanted us to be more rockish and wanted to pysche us up.. He wanted to play the guitar to the chorus of Teen Spirit by Nirvana while we sing it, so he asked us to sing the chorus for him to listeb.. hehe.. too bad, most of the crowds didnt know it and so he said, "Oh well, its ok!!" Hahahah.. so funny.. And my sweetie, Brian, he was such a darling.. he was always goofing ard with Nick or have these funny faces when he wasnt singing..

It was worth every penny, every sweat, every screamings and definitely the wait!!! I could not be happier that night!! I wish it never ends!!! And no one can take those 1hr50mins away from me.. I am feeling invincible from those 1hr50mins.. So no one or nothing can rain on my parade for the next coming months!! And if u still see a goofy smile on my face, you know why..

Heart Palpitating!!

OMIGOD!!! IT WILL BE TUESDAY, 24TH JAN TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was just surfing the net for some news abt BSB and this was what i found, taken from Newpaper..

Ms Margaret Lim, assistant programme manager of Power 98, also pointed out that these fans' continued devotion is only to be expected.

Ms Lim, 33, said: 'I was a big Backstreet Boys fan myself too in those days, and I can tell you that to fans like us, Backstreet wasn't just a boy band. It was the boy band.'

I TOTALLY AGREE!!!

I am Sooo TIRED!!!

Started the day at 7.30am.. my dad decided to go to JB in the early hours in order to avoid the afternoon rush and the evening jams.. So by 9 am, we were already on our way to Giant in JB.. By the time we got there, there were already so many people, most of the people there were doing their Chinese New Year's shopping.. I hate doing grocery shopping at Giant when there is a large crowd, it really gets on my nerve when the people is just so rude and ignorant.. For instance, since a long line was starting to form at the cashier counters, i decided to queue up 1st while my dad who was pushing the trolley waited aside for my mum to get a sponge cake.. When my mum joined my dad, he therefore made his way to the spot where i was queueing up... and there was this lady who was queueing up behind me.. when my dad was pushing the trolley toward me, the lady was saying that my dad jumped queue.. and we were like, "What?!" I told her that i was already in the queue, dun tell me that she didnt see this huge of a person(which is me) was already queuing up in front of her and to make it much more certain, the family in front of me was a Chinese family, so how can i possibly be part of them and also, am i dumb to just stand inline for fun when i wasnt holding on to anything to make any payment.. I think its pretty obvious that i was queueing up for my someone, didnt i? My dad even said nicely wasnt i not in front of her queueing up and he just merely passed over the trolley to me.. The lady still has the cheek to say "Too much!" It was so irritating.. but i told myself that it was too early to get work up so i just looked straight to the front..

We could not decide where to eat cos it was not even 12noon when we left Giant, initially we wanted to go Singgah Selalu but we made a U-turn back cos we forgot to get sthg for grandpa.. We then deided to eat at our fave seafood restaurant by the sea but when we got there, it was closed.. there goes my fave Sambal Gong-Gong.. So finally ended up at the mama shop which we frequent whenever we wanna have prata with the size of our plate.. We discovered a new type of roti, its called Roti Tisu.. it is very crispy, with butter and sugar sprinkled inside it.. Yum yum..

Reached home at ard 2plus and managed to steal a quick nap before heading off to my 1st netball practice after such a looooonnngg time.. When i reached there ard 5.20pm, it was already raining cats and dogs and we had to wait under the shelter for abt 1hr or so..

It was fun to get re-acquainted back with the netball kids, it is always a ball of laughter being ard them.. I was already breathless during the 2nd game but it sure did feel good to sweat and run ard after such a long time.. I hope with practice, we would be able to play better come the competition on the 18th Feb and i hope to build up my stamina by then..

Our next practice would be on the coming Tuesday and i was getting Red pysched for it cos she said she might not be able to make it.. and all the while, i was like getting excited with the netball kids about the BSB concert.. joking with them that if their sweat lands on my tudung, i would not wash my tudung and if i was in the 1st row, i dun mind their saliva 'tempias' on me.. and before i left i confirmed with Red and the rest that im coming for the Tuesday practice.. but on my way home, it suddenly hit me! I cant go for netball practice cos im going for the BSB CONCERT!!!!!!!!

And now, i dunno if it was the laughter, the rain, the tiredness or the mounting excitement that is causing me a headache right now..

So It Is Ops 3.Something..

Had Ops Khalawat 3.Something yday's evening, we thought that we be able to move on to Ops 4 but too bad, out dear friend Fiq had crapping problem.. haha.. i wonder how many time he had to go to the loo... As usual, we had a great time laffing at each other and as always, Red was late and was mostly the subject of our laughter.. haha..

We started out decing what Ops it is, and apparently Fiq and I got it wrong and it is not 4.sthg but actually 3.sthg.. When will the full strength meet up?

Walked down Memory Lane last night reminiscing abt our sec sch life.. it is funny how things turned out when you thought you had it all figured out.. Azack used to think that Liza and I were mentel during our 1st day of orientation in sec sch and swore off us deciding that she did not wanna be friends with us.. but look what happen now, we are best buddies for 10 years.. and the same thing happened to Red, I have decided on the 1st day of sch in PJC that i am pretty annoyed with Red and dun see us being friends in the future, but look at us now, we are best duddies..

Oh ya, had a really sucky new last night.. Someone whom i dun particularly fancies is going to attend BSB's concert!!!! AAARRRGGGHHH!!! She is going to pollute the air in the Indoor Stadium!! And the thought of her singing to BSB's songs and oogling over my boys sounds so puke-worthy!! I hope she bought the cheapest seat in the stadium, so that she wld be way, way, way at the back!!

Green Street Elite.

I didnt do much today, just helped my mum ard the house.. She has been wanting me to mop the house and today we finally did it cos Mr Sunshine has finally decided to appear and My Rain went to hide.. and now, my mum is happy cos the house is sparkling clean.. My mum has this theory that when u mopped the house on a rainy day, the floor would not be as sparkling as it needs to be.. whatever that is..
In the evening, i went to IMM with Rosi to get our pants that we sent for alteration.. I have bought a total of 3 pants, a skirt and 4 tops this month and i am still searching for the perfect top for me to wear when i meet my love, Brian.. hehe.. got the perfect cargo pants to smuggle my camera in ( Fiq, thought me a few tricks), so just need that perfect top for him to notice me from far.. yes, i see him waving at me.. heheh..

Met up with Fiq yday when i managed to get off work early, we were walking aimlessly trying to find this boutique which i tot sold Havaiianas slippers.. Not only were out feet wondering aimlessly, our minds too did a great job of wondering everywhere.. haha.. came out with lotsa crude comments describing some innocent passerbys.. we finally ended up at Gelare and decided to get some waffle.. chocolate.. yum yum.. Hopefully, the whole of the Khalawat members can make it on Monday so that it would officially be Ops 5..

Oh ya, wanna share sthg with u guys.. People out there!!! YOU GUYS SHOULD WATCH FOOTBALL HOOLIGANS!!! It definitely rocks!! Thats the reason for my blog's title.. Wanna know what it is? GO watch the movie.. All i can say is that I sure do feel like hitting someone while wathing it.. I have always loved gangster movies like Young & Dangerous, Deuce Wild and all.. I just find the concept of brotherhood and standing by each other is so appealing and weirdly sexy.. But dun get me wrong, i seriuously dun find those local ah-beng or samseng cum hanyut is anywhere near appealing.. I guess cos those characters potrayed in the movie are sensitive family man who are passionate abt what they believe in but just happened to choose the wrong avenue in expressing all those emotions.. The fight scenes to me are very raw and thats makes it much more thrilling and real.. I truly believe that soccer..oops.. football fans are the most passionate fans in the world.. and i have myself to vouch for that.. hehe..
To give u some highlights of some interesting comments made in the movie, btw, they dun call themselves gangs, they call themselves Firms..
"West Ham's football is mediorce but our firm is top-notch and everyone knows it."
"Arsenal. Great football, shit firm."
"Tottenham. Shit football and shit firm."

AARRRGGGHHH!!!

For the past few weeks, i have been flipping thru Recruits in search of a new job, but every single time i flipped thru the pages i would ask myself, "Who am i kidding?". I dun wanna be stuck in an office from 8am to 5pm and i dun want my daily life to be a routinised one. AARRRGGGGHHH!!! Do i have to work??!!
I actually did stumble across one job opening which i really like but when i looked it up on the net, i found out that it is religious-based foundation. There goes an opprtunity.. and now, i am trying to apply for some civil service job which i am not so looking forward but at the some time kinda intrigued by it.. heheh... we will see what happens..

Enuff of these job-searching nonsense,hmmm... what did i do this week?? Went to JB over the weekend with Rosi and her roomates who are husband and wife.. such a lovely couple, the husband is really funny so even though we were stuck in a jam, it was all chats and laughter.. the wife tried to matchmake me with which ever cute guys who happened to cross our path.. see lah, when u r only single person ard, pple tend to make u the subject of their entertainment.. but its okie, its all in good faith..

During Aidiladha, my cousin came over as usual and we had a great time chatting and watching The Longest Yard.. I watched it before but watching it again with them was like a total madness.. We would laughed out loud and whenever my oldest cousin laughed, she would hit me on my back.. so my mum was like warning me to get away from her whenever she starts laughing..

My cousin's gf confirmed with me that she would be sent for training in Arkansas in April and i am welcomed to join her if i wanna.. I was so excited abt it but my hope was soon died down when i hear the cost of the air tix and also the fact that my mum was being adamant of not letting me go... Another AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!

Temptation

Managed to get off from work early today.. i shld have gone to K Box with Azack cos we didnt have anything to do at work.. We would have so much fun singing out hearts out to all the BSB's song.. oh ya, i have downloaded all BSB's song into my MP3 player so that i can refresh my memory to the lyrics before going to the concert.. crazy right? i know! while listening to it, i soon realised that i missed listening to those lovely ballads of theirs which were never released as a single.. Songs like "What Makes You Different", "That's What She Said", "I Promise You" and so much, much, much more...

Anyways, while i was making my way to Jurong East, i suddenly felt like watching The Family Stone cos the Dermott Dulmoney guy (the guy in My Bestfriend'd Wedding, im not too sure of his name) is acting.. I have always found him hot.. but too bad, the slots were kinda late considering i have to be home before 7pm due to Quran recitation class..

So i ended up going to the library, i tot i just wanna browse thru some books and mags to kill some time but i knew that wld not be enuff once i stepped into the library.. there is something abt books which i just cant seem to get enuff, i think it has much to do with the smell.. i love the smell of books..
So I started looking for Soheir Khasoggi's books cos i happened to flip thru it once in a rental book store in Clementi while waiting for Azza and i found the synopsis interesting.. I found two books written by her, so i tot what the heck! I shall just borrow those 2 books since im a reading mood.. I continued walking towards the "S" section when Nicholas Sparks's name suddenly popped in my mind.. I have been wanting to read The Notebook for the longest time cos i have the vcd at home and i dun wanna watch it till i read the book 1st.. i dun want whatever i saw affect my perception of the books, i dun wanna have some pre-conceived images floating in my head when im reading the book.. Unfortunately, the book was not there but i found A Walk to Remember, another one of my fave sappy movie.. I think i have watched the movie like 10 times and every single time i watched it, i wld definitely cry... Sssiiggghhh.. what to do, im a romantic at heart.. so i was thinking to myself, what the heck, the book is prety thin and i wld defintitely be able to finish it within a day.. So there i was holding on to 3 books..
I walked further up the aisle, i came across Danielle Steel's book and my eye straight away scan thru those books looking for The Gift in particular.. I think i have read The Gift for abt 4 times, and yes.. i wld always cry after reading it.. it is such a sweet and touching story.. so i thought, what the heck, its just another book and there i was holding on to 4 books..
My instinct told me to get out from the library right there and then, no more browsing, no more stealing glances at the book while passing by the shelves.. But no!! My eyes very the gatal and it caught sight of Jane Green's book!! My head was telling me no but my heart kept saying "What the heck! Its just another book." My feet began to take those small yet fast step towards the shelf while my head kept telling me "Go Home!" Without knowing it, i extended my hand and grabbed hold of those books, LUCKILY out of the 3 books there, i have read 2 of if so i have to borrow only one.. or else.... and so there i was holding 5 book in my hand..

I forced my eyes to look down and hurriedly make my way to the escalator to scan my book on the 1st floor.. So much for browsing thru and flipping thru!! I borrowed 5 books from the library while i have another 15 more unread books at home!! AAAHHHH!!! TEMPTATION!!

What a Way to Start My 2006..

I spent the worst night of my 1st night in 2006.. I literally felt like dying.. Last night, i was vomiting for abt 5-7 times since 10.30am till 1.30am.. I vomitted every single thing out from what i consumed earlier on..
I felt absolutely normal for the whole day till night sets in and i suddenly felt queasy.. Initially, i felt like burping but i could not seem to burp when suddenly, i felt like puking and that was how it all started.. I vomitted till there is nothing more to be vomitted out.. I have never felt that sick before in my entire life, i just dunno what was the cause of it.. My mum wanted to take me to the clinic at 1am but i refused, dun really like clinic that much..
Alhamdullilah, i felt better when i woke up.. No lingering queasy feeling from last night.. So my mum decided to shop for my dad's bag and eat dinner with my cousin.. All the while, i kept praying that i dun puke anymore.. But so far so good...

So its finally year 2006 and 2005 was like a blur to me.. Initially, i wanted to list out my new year resolutions but who am i kidding? Every year i would list out all the things that i would like do but most of it remained unfulfilled.. So now, i would rather have it inside my head and would take each day as it comes... If the opportunities present itself, i would definitely seize it but if it does not, hmmmm.... let me think abt it..
I just hope that year 2006 would be a much more fulfilling year for me, i hope that i would change my negative attitude to a positive one.. I really hope that something exciting would happen to me this year.. Well, we will see ay...
