I have a habit of letting my face slack whenever people take my picture.
When I take other people's picture, I'd be all ":D" and then when the cameras are turned against me I'd be all ":"
...
Masayo-chan finally noticed it the other day and went "-_-"
Speaking of her, that day, Friday, we went to Times Square.
My Lord, I will never want to go there on a public holiday again. The amount of times I had to shove people outta my way = uncountable.
Times Square needs a new purikura centre.
It was so sad. -.-
So sad that we didn't take any in the end.

Going out with (pea)NUT tomorrow.
To start my christmas shopping and to continue hers.
I am so late.
So late.

I'm dropping hair like there is no tomorrow.
I have the hair to drop but at this rate, it will not be so tomorrow.
Perhaps it is my shampoo.
Hrmph.
I might be balding.

Today, or rather yesterday...

.. was incredibly irritating.
I was stuck in an exodus... that was heading INTO the malls rather than away as would usually be expected from mass migration.
I hate having to crowd and fight my way into places.

Right now, I'm sitting here with my right wrist bandaged.
*Do not insert bondage joke here, pervs*
I need to find that fairy line.
Bloody rheumatism.

I filled up my manuscript pen and started writing. Proud that I still remember the old manuscript style.
My brother was intrigued (I cannot believe he didn't learn it in school) and tried to write some himself.
Not bad for a first attempt.
He seemed to enjoy it.
Aaah, I'll always love calligraphy, I think.
I started out really hating it... but gradually grew to love it (the fact that it very quickly became natural to me was probably a contributing factor).
Tengwar with the manuscript pen is also quite fun but I'll leave that out for now :)

I remember watching this on TV and I particularly remember me having this expression from start to finish - :O
I have tried to play this damn song.
Lemme tell you... it kills me.

And then you have things like this.. which is truly awesome.

Handed up my dissertation.
I heard Mr. L was not there.. but I just shoved the paper there anyway.
It was such a relief.

Kamui Kobayashi signed with BMW Sauber.
My family was just discussing whether or not he'll be driving next year.
I seriously can't wait to see more cars on the track.
And we are curious to know if there'll be more massive mayhem in Brazil next year due to the number of cars.

I'm totally planning my christmas presents this year.
Gonna take a different approach this time...
Expect to receive alot of crap.
:D

Productivity.. in the form of books

.. comes when it is least expected.
I had a productive day today :D but not in school.
It happened in Kinokuniya.. I know a trip to Kinokuniya (or any other bookstore) is always productive for me but today (!) in particular will go down in my history books.
I was pondering over whether to order CDData or not after picking up my two pre-ordered magazines when I turned to check out the ever-busy shelf containing music magazines when I saw UVERworld on a CDData magazine. I picked it up and noticed "DIR EN GREY" written quite prominently over the cover and then I saw the inset picture of Dir en grey with the words written "Another Side Cover" or some other literal translation to the same effect. So I flipped it over and discovered that lo, it was the SAME magazine as the one I wanted. Not to mention it was the LAST copy on the shelf.. which led me to wonder what special occasion did I forget that Kinokuniya will give me a gift? So I nicely tucked it under my arm and proceeded to make my payment.
This will be on top of my "Awesome discoveries while at a bookstore" list along with the discovery of the old August issue of SHOXX which included the very homo-erotic/glittery/bright and white photoshoot of Kamijo and Sanaka.
I like.
I told my sister "I have so many magazines with UVERworld on the cover that people think I actually LOVE UVERworld when I don't"
Somehow, they're always there. Like it or not.
(Same goes for The Yellow Monkey and The Back Horn.. I don't listen but they're always in my magazines LOL)
I ventured AWAY from Neil Gaiman's Death book (The sister of Dream.. which costs RM300+ and is as tempting as a dreamy bowl of warm chocolate cake.. I can't bring myself to buy it even with Kinokuniya generously offering a 30% discount with another purchase :S) and ventured very far away from the literature section. I just bought three books (I will get to this later) yesterday.. and don't think it is wise to buy more books after just one day.

.. and now for further prove of my near zero resistance level..
I am definitely not immune to temptations. That will be listed as the understatement to end all understatements.
I bought all three Dexter books... Dearly Devoted Dexter, Darkly Dreaming Dexter and Dexter in the Dark.. and coming right up, DEXTER BY DESIGN... not bought yet but will be, eventually.
For the first time since discovering Borders has the whole 'Choose any three kids books from our stickered selection and we'll give you the cheapest one free' (I will eventually explain as to why I found this statement highly amusing as well as inappropriate) offer, I actually found THREE books that I really want. Usually, there's always only TWO which will then make me buy another book that I have zero interest in and thus, equals it to buying two books for the price of two which will then make the entire offer lose its purpose. (I've never done so, though.. not so stupid)
And so, I bought all three. I need to buy some resistance as well.
Now, for my explanation.
THREE KIDS BOOKS.
HELLO?
BORDERS? HAVE YOU NOT READ DEXTER? At least read the summary at the back!
Shall I quote?
"Dexter Morgan appears to be the perfect gentleman. He leads a normal, quiet life working as a forensic officer for the Miami Police. He has a nice, shy gilfriend and is liked by her young children. But Dexter has a secret hobby. He's an accomplished serial killer. So far he's killed dozens of people and has never been caught, because he knows exactly how to dispose of the evidence. And there are those who would rather he wasn't caught at all, because Dexter is a serial killer with a difference. He only kills the city's bad guys'
I will stop there.
Why the 3 for 2 sticker will have a statement saying 'Choose any three kids books' for this book amused and bemused me.
I mean, focus on an issue here.. From an ecological point of view, this book is not one a child should read.
Dexter throws crap into the sea! In non-biodegradable bags!
Trash go in bins, not seas... TURTLES CAN DIE FROM THESE BAGS, DAMN IT!
...
Oh right.. and he murders as well.

After so long...

... I have time to type :D
Presentation over. TWO weeks of SUPER HARD WORK.... -> DID NOT PAY OFF.
I have to change my floor plans.
Some of 'em didn't come with exterior models.. I shouldn't have rushed like I did.
But oh well, what's done is done and after three years of endless presentations, I have grown numb to the BAD BAD REMARKS that I get.
And anyway, this time around, it wasn't mere put downs, it was actual help that was given so it ain't that bad.
That and my brain was too scattered and asleep to really notice.
