Guess where and I'll give you a virtual kiss.

How did you guys spend your Halloween? Clubbing and drinking? Horror Movie Marathon? Halloween themed dress up parties? I know I'm a little late for this post but it was saved under drafts. Teehee!

Well, as for myself, I had an awesomeeeeeeeeeeeee time!!!

I slept throughout the night and played Pokemon Diamond on my Nintendo DSi during the wee hours of the morning. Fun, or what?! Heeheehee.

I've gotta admit that what I did was boring and it does make me look as if I've got no life...

On second thought... Who am I kidding? I DON'T! TSK TSK TSK.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

Okay, its not because I had no plans. I do. But I felt sooooo tired that I decided to cancel all of them so I can sleep! Sad huh.

As you all know (I know you don't but I shall remain delusion tyvm!), I had a presentation on Saturday morning. Friday night and the wee hours of Saturday was spent pouring my sweat, blood and tears into finalising my report as it was also due on the same day. I fell asleep about 3.45am and had a wake up call from Claire at 7.18am.

I can't really remember what our conversation was but apparently, according to her, I spoke to her in Malay (I know, wtf right?). She then told me to wake up at that very second because if I were to procrastinate, we'd be late for our presentation. Aaaaaanndddddddddd, I asked her what presentation was she talking about and went back to sleep.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

So thats FML number 1.

When I finally woke up (Mommy screamed at me to wake up lol), I had to rush like mad! Bathed, got dressed and cabbed to school. Cab fare was kind of cheap, surprisingly. Usually to Namly Avenue during the peak hours is around $20-$25. But it was $16! I think the cab driver had forgotten to as the surcharge or something! Haha! Ahh wells. Not my problem right?

So on my way to school, I received a call from Claire. I answered and she asked me where I was because Group 2 is presenting at that very moment (we were Group 3) and we were up next. Of course, I was sooo shocked because it was only 9.20am and that there was NO WAY Group 2 had begun to present, let alone Group 1 since school starts at 9.30am!!! Like WTF?!

I couldn't do anything to help the situation get better except to tell the cabby to drive a little bit faster. :(

And thats FML number 2.

HARDLY 5 minutes later, Claire called me again; asking if I had printed the report - to which I said no. I swear, she literally screamed 'WHYYYYYY?!?!' - like there was a pistol to her head or something lol.... Ok, scratch that. As if someone stabbed her in the back or something... Aiyah, you know what I mean!

Of course I didn't print it because I've got no fucking printer at home that can be read by my laptop! I thought we've established that fact already! PLUS, we all agreed upon FINALISING the report IN CLASS and then printing it at the library!!! Must I refresh your memory, women?!?! LMAO. And then she asked if I've done the appendices. And again, I said no because I don't have the fucking surveys and raw data! I had to remind her that Nicholas had it and when we called/MSN him the night before, he was already asleep!

FML 3 AND 4!

I swear, the day wasn't starting out good! By then, I was reaching school already and I assured her I would go print the report AS SOON as I reached. And guess what happened? I couldn't open the fucking file. There was 2 Words documents to be printed. One was the Introduction, Background, Purpose, Methology and Scope. The other was Findings, Analysis, Conclusion and Recommendation. I don't know why, but I could open the first file and not the second when both was saved in the EXACT SAME format! FML number 5!

Called Claire and forced her to get her butt down to the library. We ended up getting help from Irfan too! Apparently SIM's computers are ANCIENT. They could only read the older edition of Words! Luckily I brought my dear dear laptop! We switched the format and printed it! While Irfan left us :( Apparently, in his own words and I quote "Oh shit, I've gotta take a crap!"

-_______________________________________________________________-

Aaaand then LOL-ing at us because we were the third group to present and his was on the last day AND the last group!

Some people, just have all the luck. Grrrr!

John then came running to the library with his super ronyok (crinkled) formal tee, telling us that one of our group member was still not in school and our group presentation was pushed back! By then, it was already like 9.45am! FML number 6!

After printing, we literally ran back to class. It wasn't fun. At all. With three inch heels. While carrying a laptop and a Sembonia handbag and papers and my matching Sembonia wallet and my small pouch with all my cards and and and and I don't know what else. (Ooooh, by the way, I bought the new formal wear. Looove it! Okay, technically Mommy bought it for me since its her money and all but but but it was soooooo pretty! Though I don't think I'd EVER wear it again... I mean, the colour is BLACK-GREY-ISH like!)

Then our group presentation was pushed to like the second last group which was fine with me because I had time to compose myself and think of what to say.. And seriously, it was hard since I had practically NO sleep the night before. Like wtf?! Zzzzzzzz. I wrote my points on my pretty pink note cards (YES, THEY EXIST!! HURRAH! HURRAH!!) and, you know, recite what I've got to say to Claire. I was  the Introduction btw.

So, when it came to our turn, I plugged in the mic and began my speech thingy. Everything was going on fine.... UNTIL...

I BLANKED!

I KNOW RIGHT!!!!

For the first time, Nur Nadiah Binte Anwar didn't know what to say!

(&(*%&%^%$%^&*()(*&^%#%$#^%$(^$^%%(&(*^(*%&%^(%($%$%$(%$

It happened like this. I was bullshitting confidently and everything was YAYYYYYY! Until I wanted to say this one point about how there was fake RMIT Degrees circulating in Singapore at one point of time.. And then, at the back of my head, something occurred to me...

I've said this point already.. So I told myself to not repeat it cos then I'd look stupid right and to go to the next point... And it was then I lost my drift and forgotten what to say and stutter and saying 'uhms'.

FML number 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16!

Gawd, that was embarrassing. I never run out of things to say :(

It doesn't help that the rest of the presentation equally sucked. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!

Irfan didn't help me at all when I came back to sit. He said I looked like as though I saw my life flashing pass by..... KNNCCB! So mean! T.T

Heh, I didn't dwell on it anyways... I went to buy a drink and my chicken pau and came back to class to Om Nom Nom while bitching about people. Its goooooooooood. I named a few people in class. There was "cute face, pathetic body guy" and "buckle guy" and "boobs man butch" and "ugly legs minah who tries so hard to be angmoh and fuck your alias Kim name wannabe".

DOO DA DOOOO! LIFE'S GOOOD!

If you don't know where's SIM Management house, it is near Goh Chock Tong (EHHH, is this his name? LOL!) 's house. At Namly. Where all the rich terraces/bungalows are. It also means, THERE WERE MANY MANY HILLS. Imagine walking down all those hills in those heels.. I thought I was gonna fall and roll down the slope, I SWEAR. And Claire was so tempted to push me :( Aaaand going home, all the way to PASIR RIS! Ooooh, the horror.....

The only good thing about it was that the heels was so pretty!! But the bad thing is that I developed blisters.

Gawd, the things I do for pretty shoes....

Hey! I've changed the fonts on my blog! I really loved the previous font all fancy-like but it was getting kind of irritating. I think I like this better. Its easier to read, no? I've also removed the music. :(

Meow, meow, meow. I'm bored. Soooo.. I've decided to blog. Okay, I'm not supposed to be bored because I've got TONS of work to do... But, I'm just lazy. So I shall procrastinate by blogging. Oh yeah.

So recently, I went to the movies to watch 'My Sister's Keeper'. I was waiting for this movie to be released in Singapore for a MIGHTY long time because I've always been a fan of Ms Jodi Picoult and My Sister's Keeper so happened to be one of my favourite book by her.

I guess one of the reasons that I've picked up this book is that one of my Aunt had passed away from Leukemia when I was 10 years old. I was quite young then and didn't understand what was really happening. But I remembered, I really did love her. All I knew Mamami (her name was Samiah) was terribly ill and had to be admitted to the hospital in Singapore (she was living in M'sia at that point of time). Apparently, she didn't knew that she was suffering from leukemia at first. Yes, there was some signs like the never ending coughs and the horribly weak feeling. But she didn't put much thought into it. When she found out that she had gotten this sickness, she kept it to herself. Her wish is that she didn't want to trouble the rest of the family as medical expenses was very expensive. But alas, we did found out because her condition worsened.

She passed away in 2004, at the young age of 50. I still could remember how'd she looked like vividly in my head and there is still pictures of her around. But how I wish I could still remember her laughter, the way she spoke and how'd she act around me. Its sad that I can't remember any. Sometimes I dream of her and I'd wake up feeling kind of down. But I know that where ever she is right now (hopefully in heaven), she'd be watching out for me.

Okay, so getting back to our topic....

I remembered when I first read the book quite a long time ago. I was obsessed. I couldn't put the book down and I HAD to continue to flip the pages to know what happened next because it was THAT GOOD. It was kind of confusing at first since Jodi Picoult wrote from everyone's point of view. From Kate's to Anna's to Jesse's to Brian's to Sara's to Alexander's to Julia's (who is Anna's guardian ad litem and Alexander's fling/gf/whatever.. which isn't in the movie btw). But when you get the hang of it, you'd be enjoying the book as much as I did! =DD

If you have no idea what the book is about (which I highly doubt! Because if you don't, SHAME ON YOU!), here's a short synopsis-

"Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age thirteen, she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate - a life and a role that she has never questioned… until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister - and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable… a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves. My Sister's Keeper examines what it means to be a good parent, a good sister, a good person. Is it morally correct to do whatever it takes to save a child's life… even if that means infringing upon the rights of another? Is it worth trying to discover who you really are, if that quest makes you like yourself less?"

And here's the trailer -

(I tried to embed the youtube vid here but I can't and I don't know why! If I do that, the whole layout of my blog goes haywire. Zzzzz. Stop being a bitch OnSugar! Grrr!)

Okay, so here are my thoughts....

The movie isn't as good as the book. I didn't cry AT ALL during the movie and I am the sort of person who cries at ANYTHING sad. I swear, tears do well up my eyes when I see an abandoned doggy okay! Okay, maybe I did tear for maybe 2 seconds but thats it! Aaand I cried so bad while reading the book!

And they shouldn't have have cut Julia's part out of the movie because she played a HUGE ass part in the story! She's freaking linked to the main character and her lawyer, for goodness sake!

Plus a big WHAT THE FUCK to the scene where Kate and Taylor had sex! (Sorry about the spoiler my dears). Thats not in the book! And why on earth would you show 2 cancer patients doing it in a PG rated movie? I swear, I wanted to slap each and every stupid school girl that was giggling in the theatre!

SPIT SPIT SPIT SPITTTTTTTTT!!!

Oh yeah, and the movie ending is way way way different from the book and Cameron Diaz sucked in playing the Momma.

My rating:

Book: 5/5

Movie: 3/5

Holyshit. Its been quite a long while since I've updated this sad blog of mine. Heeheehee. The reason is always the same though. Lazy, Unmotivated and Busy.

I don't know...

During my Secondary school days, I used to loved blogging. I pretty much blog everyday. I reckon it is because I usually have fun or interesting things that happened to me during school etc. Currently, life's pretty dull.

Everyday, its the same old routine... Nothing to look forward in school too. Maybe except.. Nguyen Quynh Nga, Claire. She's my best friend in SIM and I ❤ her to bits and pieces! Without her, I think I'd actually die of boredom in school.

Of course there's Sin Peng and Nicholas and John and the occasional Aqashah in clique. Non-stop horny talks in class and movie dates and LAN outing.

Too busy to do that now. Its all assignments, assignments and more assignments. And you know what that leads to...

Arguments and misunderstandings.. And sayings like 'I wanna kill that bitch!' and 'Tell them to go fuck themselves!'. Its funny how we can get along and then argue in the next minute.. SIM peeps are weirdos, I swear.

Right now, Claire and I are really trying to our best in finishing up Business Communication's Report and PowerPoint slides because our presentation is on Saturday. Its sooooo boringgggg and tedious... I really feel like stabbing my lecturer so much! Like who the fuck cares about what people prioritise in choosing their Universities.. I don't care! I only care about what I prioritise! Zzzzzz. Annoyingggg!

Okayyy, I'm out of things to say. Gotta go continue with my never ending assignments. How fun =/

Till next time, my loves.

xo, Nadiah

P/S: Its funny that there's a Blood donation Ad on my blog when I can't even donate my blood. I've got a blood defiency. Oh wells.

The previous post... Is so redundant, don't you think?
