Aqua

We went SWIMMING yesterday!
As always, ada je benda klaka lah yg berlaku.
It's hard not to have any funny incidents if you're out with Yanni.

After swimming, we ate chicken rice at AMK banquet. (so much for swimming eh)
Now, let me warn you.
We ate the booby trap chicken rice.
Yanni suggested we eat the chicken rice set meal, there's veggie, chicken.. practically a well balanced meal. Convinced, I followed suit. After we tucked in, much to our dismay, the generous looking chicken serving was a booby trap lah. Underneath the thin slices of chicken, mounds.. yes, MOUNDS of cucumber slices can be found. So please avoid the chicken rice stall the next time ur there.

2 weeks more to EPL...
I think I'll stop blogging UNTIL it starts.
Unless of course, something interesting happens.

Dramedy in the works.

Oh god, I am so sleepy today.
*BIG YAWN*

Manpurse.

I just saw Gael carrying a Gucci manpurse on Arseblog. *squee*

Poser boy

I was watching the 2007/2008 pre-season programme. There was an interview with Aleks Hleb which I missed cos I was channel surfing, only to see him wave goodbye while clutching a LV manpurse. With a cheeky pose too. wasted.

HP OOTP

As the other HP movies, there are some fantastic stuffs and gripe about the latest movie but all are well, this one is far from disappointing but not enough to be warranted my favourite HP movie, to dat, I yet to have one actually.
There are some scenes and components which are not included, and these are the scenes which I looked forward to when I was reading the book. More on that later, when more ppl have watched the movie.

I preferred the movie to the book. Considering, HP OOTP is my least favourite book in the series. It's quite engaging as to how the film was executed.

OK guys, please watch.
And for those, who still haven't catch TRANSFORMERS yet. Please do so.

Awright, for now, I got itchy butt, I want to read HP TDH soon! *TAK SABAR*

Kau pergi jua

Ku petik sebuah lagu, khas utk Thierry Henry, chorus dia fits the current situation to a T:

Siapakah
Di antara kita
Dengan rela menjadi pendusta
Siapakah dulu
Membina harapan dan siapa
Yang memusnahkan impian
Tanpa sebab dan alasan
Kau mainkan perasaan
Bagai taufan tiba-tiba datang
Dan menghilang....

- Ibnor Reza, Mimpi yang tak sudah.

Kay, if everytime you see Thierry don that stripey kit, murder you. I suggest u sing to this song. Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap. Feeling gila.

Pulau Rawa

Some overdue pics, from my Rawa Island trip. I only have underwater pics with me, to see how beautiful the island is, kindly google the island, I think there are more pics online that justify the beauty of this island. Enjoyss!

Me! Me!! *bloop blooop bloop, kentot dlm air*

Mr and Mrs Ismail, looking at fishes. *bad framing, ahkahakhak.. I was wearing goggles only lah, dah out of breath.*

Fishy! Fishy! Fishy!. There are more vicious ones that actually bit my father.

Weee! My beaver cousin going down the slide. *bad framing AGAIN. hakhakha. try treading in the water and juggle a camera while at it*

Banyak alasan ah Isz.

I love the slide. Even if I have to climb up an ultra slippery ladder.

Rumor mills.

I think Cesc is too loyal and smart, to actually get lured to Real Madrid. If he does move and most likely to be Barca, a club he followed as a kid. So Real Madrid, lay off.

"So Drogba said we're already out of the title race, did he? Well, let's wait and see what happens," Gilberto told The Sun.
"What I do know is last season Chelsea spent a fortune on new signings and still couldn't beat Arsenal once in the league.
"They didn't defend their title either, so I think Drogba is talking a little bit too much."

Drogba got horse shit splattered over his big mouth. hahahaha.

You know...

you are not getting any younger when a player same age as you, are peaking.
Before you know it, he is already at his peak. And you witnessing their decline?
That is if you still remain a football fan in ten years time.

*gulps

And Cesc is 20 already! It seems like yesterday, I was busy squeeing away that 17 year old with a mullet haircut in the Charity Shield game.

Argh! And I am nowhere near any GREATness.
Loser sia.

Sorry, PMS lah dok.

I've watched various youtubes of Dudu (chey! Dah mesra nampak?) He reminds me a LOT of Pires. Pires with that run into the box and that first time shots. Uncanny. Kalau boleh jadi 3/4 of Pires's talent. Dah OK lah tu eh?

Pleasantly Surprised.

Admist all the noise, the hullabaloo of possible Arsenal signing to replace TH14 Thierry Henry. Arsene did it in stealth mode, he is signing Eduardo Da Silva from Dinamo Zagreb, subject to medical approval. Eduardo was NEVER mentioned in any of the speculations. Sneaky fellow, you Arsene!

Then again Eduardo who?...
Personally, it doesn't bother me that he's not a BIG ASS HOUSEHOLD NAME. The fact that he scored 34 goals in 32 games last season speaks volumes. And if he can achieve half of that goals in his first year at the Grove. You can say, I'll be one satisfied Gooner.

Having said that, I would want more goals coming from midfield. More from Aleks (if he doesn't get ousted by EBoue that is), Cesc and Rossa. Pls guys, now that the Scowling Ego Maniac is gone, kindly take your place up on the mantle. And RVP, I want manyx258 SUPERB goals tau!

Optimus Prime, Maximise!

Transformers was AWESOME.
Exceeded my expectations with a plomp.
Staying true to its cartoons version, Autobots are still the ones being bullied, only to win at the end. The main reason why, I always find Transformers depressing.
And Shia Labeouf COMEL! heee heee heee.
OK, shall not spoil it further for any of you who have not seen it.

Honestly, I can't wait for HP OOTP, this would be one emotional movie for me. I hope they do my favourite scene well. I remembered being all disappointed with HP POA because Sirius Blacks unveiling the true story to Harry wasn't as emotional as in the book...It's like they are missing out on the very essence of the movie.

Happy Birthday Kay Makata!

I hope you have an enjoyable and memorable birthday, considering you have a trip to sunny Barcelona all lined up, it's hard not to. I wish/hope/pray for you to bump into Cesc(!), or any of the HOT spanish footballers, (Luis Garcia haaa haaa haaa haaa! Bluerk!) or Bobby Pires(!) while you were there. You still are my favourite-est goonerette ever. And I'm looking forward to more bitching/ranting/slashing/fangirling/analysing the Arsenal with you. Ameen.

Loads of love,
Isz the Goonerette

P/s: I hope you read this before you embark for your holiday, I need your UK address ASAP. I know you are moving to a new place and all, but do pass me an address that you have access to for the next 2 weeks or so. Thanks hor!

Edit/
I remembered the first time I saw this guy on tv, he was a guest correspondent for the discussion on post 9/1/1 in C/N/A. He caused the then host, I believe its the Shankar guy of the rape scandal, to flurry a bit with his vocal and rather un'standard' views.

Here's something to share: Robert F/i/s/k: Welcome to P/a/l/e/s/t/i/n/e

Speaking of which, I still have a quarter of The Great War of Civilisation to go, cos I stopped like 8 months ago. I lost steam after going to the final quarter. Must start reading again.

An he left...

When I was away...

Back to my room after the afternoon swim to a rude shock with a SMS informing me of Henry's departure. I felt empty for a while, you know that kind of feeling, coming to term with a loss. I was itching to find out more about it, since internet is available. * I got it all mixed up with Pulau Pemanggil which states there is no connection, but since Pulau Rawa is only abt 30 mins boat ride away from mainland. Getting network-ed was never an issue.* On the walk to lunch I put my thoughts into persepctive, there is no way I'm getting all emo on my holiday.

I mean we got used to adjusting to life without Henry 5 months ago didn't we?

I wish him all the best, may he butcher all those horrendous defending in the La Liga.

Gooners MAY have to endure what could be another disappointing season, and may well see more promising gunners leaving us. With or without world class signing. With TH exit, I can only envisioned a more anchorage and regular first team for RVP, paving more space for Theo and Nicklas. And that is exciting, we'll leave AW, Cesc's future, whoever who will follow Arsene future, to worry next season. This season , we'll chill. *rolls eyes*

Aching all over, I think I climbed a ladder many times more than I did a whole lifetime in over a weekend. More arms are damn sore. And I will miss that afternoon naps after swim... :\

Back to work tomorrow.

Photos or videos will be uploaded when I'm free-er.

Edit/
For the record, I don't think Arsenal will roll off and die due to Henry's departure.
Jangan jadi bodoh boleh tak?

Going for the 3 (S)s

Insya allah by this time tomorrow, I will be HERE!

Do not attempt to call/contact me for the next 3 days, I will be totally cut off from the outside world.

Tak ada reception, serious.

Hopefully, will be back with pics and charred skin. heh. Or face-tans. Ahkahkahkaha.

When the grim reaper strikes...

There's never a good time to die. When you are young you have too much potential, when you are old, you've accumulate too many sins. - thesaneone.blogspot.com

I'm already in the latter group. O_0

Fleeting.

My attempt at being a lady remains futile in the footwear department.
I've given away 2 shoes to my mum, cos the damned shoes are a bad fit.
BAD BAD FIT, eats into my feet.

I walked around with slippers at work today, which is rare, as I'm always covered in Chucks or Vans to the amusement of my colleagues, who had hardly seen my feet.To make it worse, I tripped over my backon my bed yesterday, the blistered skin hit over the mattress and caused a longer tear. Ouch!

Colleague: Eh! Why aren't you wearing ur shoes?
Me: Got Blister.
Colleague: Oh... from that shoe you shown me.
Me: Yaah.
Colleague: It's normal, this kind of shoes will give you blister. Wait, until it heals and wear it again.
Me: Huh?!
Colleague: Look *shows me the numerous blister scar*. Must keep on wearing, if not your feet won't get used to it.
Me:...*obviously speechless*

How can I be vain when I can't even freaking walk. *sigh*

On a quest to find better, cute, comfortable shoes.
Maybe, I should just get one of those nenek2 Scholl shoes. hah.

Congratulations, Mas Tuty Suliani & Yusri.

And what a wedding!

Words failed me on occasion like this.
Normally I find myself 'star-struck' when in front of these beautiful brides even when they are my FRIENDS!! I could only register an awkward smile and mumble some cliched well wishes.
Coupled with multiple thoughts of running through my brain*Please walk slowly, you don't want to tripped onto the wedding couple*, *oh no, I need to get on the dais*, *ermmm what should I say*, *eh, is my tudong senget*, *how to smile??!!*.
Pendek kata, aku mmg stress gila kalau berdepan dgn majilis-majilis mcm nie.

All the small peeps are there! Which is quite an achievement. We had kickass time! The food was good! We even had a post-wedding dinner meet up at McD. hakahkhakhak.

To Tuty and Yusri,
Thank you for having me part of your wedding, witnessing your akad nikah and getting me involved in the wedding preps.
I'm happy to be there, for being part of it will enveloped itself fondly in my memory.
I am expecting Little Yusri(s) or Tuty(s) in years to come. It's high time Aisyah gets a playmate. Heh.

p/s: KL itinerary on it's way. Soonest possible.

Little Mosque on the prairie.

I slept at 2 am to watch it, interrrnet was super slow last night. *yawns*

I like the show, it's very 'bising', 'kecoh' and funny.

And the Imaam is cute. hurrr hurr hurr

Stretched to the fullest.

Far too lethargic to actually organised my thoughts, my concentration wavered. Talking has been a tiring thing.

Been listening to wayy too much of earworm. Believe me, from the likes of BSB, Snow, Akon, Avril Lavigne.. *hangs head in shame*, Eiffel 65(???!!!) just to get me upbeat.

Now, I need a dose of Emily Haines.

-_- pointless entry. Welcome to my Utterly Boring Life. *yawns*

Slowpoke.

Arsenal transfer updates has been pretty slow, hence my even slower blogging.

The Mancs has gone on a shopping spree and nearly done with it, bagging impressive players, while Arsene was reportedly off for a holiday(?) in Sardinia.
The rumor mill has been working overtime, with most of the gunners linked out. And we got moaners like Reo Crocker linked in. Jeremie is confirmed on his way out. I feel sorry for that guy, he never took his chances and by sheer bad luck he gets ousted onto the bench by BAPTISTA HAHAHAHAHA! in the twilight of his Arsenal career.

Ah fuck it. *buzz off football thoughts*

I bought this pretty ballet flats BUT I am having mixed feelings about it. Girly shoes and me just doesn't work well together. They always end up giving my feet blisters. I was thinking of ditching it for a pair of chucks for Tuty's wedding but run the risk of Yanni strangling me during the wedding reception. Any remedies to ward off those insane blisters? I tried the shoe biting thingy and that myth doesnt work on me mentally or physically. It doesn't help that I'm blessed with hobbit's feet, so I need to 'cover' them up.

I finally got my outfits sorted out and hope it turns out well. Well, at least according to plan.

Can;t wait for lunch time, mum made me some kickass chapattis. yum yum!
