The most romantic thing you've heard

What's the most romantic thing you've heard so far? Be it from the movie, from a book, from the internet, from your ex or from your partner. What is the most romantic thing you've heard so far?

I used to think that a simple "I love you" is romantic enough for me. I used to get all hyped up bout the "I love you" and the "I miss you" phrases. I used to think that when someone says "I love you", it'll actually last forever. But as time goes by, I realized it's not that way. As much as the "I love you" you hear from him, it'll all changed just with a snap of a finger. Then you'll realize, all the "I love you" were just words.

So for me, I don't consider stuff like "I love you till forever", or any other fancier way you can say "I love you" to be romantic. I think a romantic thing to say would be a phrase, or a paragraph, or even a page full of words, but without the word "Love".

I bet you've heard of that classic line from the movie Jerry Maguire, "You complete me". That was indeed a very touching line but it was only so coz of the things Tom Cruise said before that last line. I think that something romantic, must be said from the bottom of the heart, with your very own words, without the influence of any classic lines.

It could be constructed with very poor vocabulary, or with very lousy grammar, but as long as it's something sincere and honest, it is something romantic.

And FYI, something that sounds like this "I really love you so much. I've never felt this way about another person before. I really want to be with you till the end of my life", is not something romantic. It's a cliche. How many guys have told this to a girl and end up dumping her in the end?

I really want to know what is the most romantic thing you've heard so far in your life, please leave a comment and let me know.

For me, the most romantic thing I've heard so far goes something like this, not in the exact words, but similar.

Him: "There is no doubt that life will change you, and one day you'll feel differently towards me."

Her: "Then what would you do when that day comes?"

Him: "I haven't thought about it."

*Short pause*

Him: "When I look into your eyes and see something different, then I'll think about it."

I don't really know why, but that is the most romantic thing I've heard so far. And yes, the "Her" is me. =p

Just sharing

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

It's part of the lyrics from Airplanes by B.O.B featuring Hayley Williams in case you didn't know.

I especially like Hayley's singing in this song, she's the lead singer for Paramore, in case you didn't know.

Anyway, no particular meaning to this post, I just like her voice and I love the lyrics.

=)

Outing with the girls at Mid Valley

Went out with the girls for a shopping spree in Mid Valley last Saturday. It was after all, the mega sales season. We didn't manage to get much though. I bought myself a new pair of jeans, while Yuki and Peiqi got themselves each a new top. Moon went home empty handed that day, she just couldn't find anything she liked. LOL!!!

Anyway, the mall wasn't as packed as I thought it'd be. The girls and I went over to the Gardens to shop a lil bit more and we stopped by Robinson. Yuki and I tried on a bra but we just didn't like it that much. All is not lost though, we managed to camwhore a bit in the fitting room coz the lighting was just awesome. =)

4 big heads

This shot has a princessy edge to it.

Candid, but I like it. XD

Nice~ =p

Was goofing around after that...

And my favourite pic of the day!!!

Haha. In case you guys didn't notice, note the black bra I'm wearing outside of my shirt. It's not mine btw, just another bra that we were trying out. Put it on the outside just to get that goofy feeling for this shot.

We all headed to Paparich for our early dinner/snack, and the girls decided to head over to Peiqi's house at Serdang since her dad has been complaining how she never brings us home. LOL. Then Yuki and Moon wanted to drink some alcohol, so we went to Cold Storage to see what we could find. It was quite a disappointment though. Both of them didn't had much money to spend on wine and they knew nothing bout it either. So they each bought a 5% alcohol drink instead. LOL.

This is a funny pic coz we were trying to take a shot with the bottles on the floor.

It was really difficult for us to take this shot coz Moon's camera lens is very short and we all had to squeeze into that mini frame of her, on the floor nonetheless. The above picture is like the #4212135 picture that we took. LOL.

Yuki's and Moon's.

Yuki and her drink.

Me posing with Moon's drink.

Peiqi having a sip. =p

Last but not least, the camwhore queen who wanted both bottles. LOL!

After our so called lil drinking session, we just chatted a bit in the living room. Moon bought this really yummy kimchi from Cold Storage too. It was really nice and if you guys just so happen to drop by, do give it a try.

Moon and her kimchi.

I loved it alot too. Haha!!!

Anyway, Louis came by Peiqi's house to fetch us girls back. Got to meet his friend Michael again. All of us except Peiqi headed for dim sum around Sri Petaling. We hung around there till it was like 3.30am and we finally decided to leave as soon as Wilson (Yuki's bf), dropped by to give her a surprise and also to fetch her home. How sweet. Haha!!!

Anyway, had a really fun outing with the girls and we're gonna do it again this Sunday. We're gonna head up to Genting highlands, this time, with more jimuis! =) Will update soon again.

Brownie goes EMO

Brownie can actually model!!! LOL. Seriously, my sis took some photos of Brownie the other day and it turned out really good. Like she's some sort of professional model. I'm actually quite surprised that my sis managed to take some good shots of Brownie with the not so fancy Sony digicam that my dad got it for free.

Scroll down to see Brownie's photoshoot. =p

When loneliness is all there is... No one to play with, no one to share with...

When freedom is taken away... Beyond the bars lies happiness...

Living solely on your own... Never knowing the meaning of happiness...

But I believe... There is still hope...

Hope for a better life... Even if it means waiting endlessly...

How long will I need to wait... For my happiness, lies in your hand...

Whoah... Not bad right? Can do those adoption ads. LOL!!!

Sorry la my caption suck a bit coz I'm not emo right now. XDXD

Inception at Mid Valley

Watched Inception at Mid Valley on last Sunday night. I've heard of the movie quite a few times but only that it's impossible to get tickets to. I didn't really know what the movie was about at all. Louis called in the morning that Sunday telling me he wants to watch the movie Inception, so I offered to buy the tickets online using my dad's credit card.

Guess what? It was totally sold out. Every session in Pavilion was sold out that I had no choice but to buy tickets in Mid Valley. Thank goodness there were still decent seats left when I made the purchase, but the movie was kinda late, 11pm.

Anyway, walked around Mid Valley and did a lil shopping. Louis wanted to buy a checkered shirt for a birthday party his friend is having next month. And the shopping luck was on our side that night, we found a really nice checkered shirt for him, and I got myself a top too. =)

Headed to Kim Gary for our dinner after that. There wasn't anywhere else that I felt like going coz I wanted a place with bright lights so I can take some decent photos.

Louis looks like a kiddo here. XD

Me in my mom's top. Haha!

Us. =)

Louis said there was this girl in the opposite table that kept staring at us when we were camwhoring, but I didn't mind at all. LOL. It's been too long since I took any photos of myself. =p

After our dinner we went to Watson for awhile. I was at the cosmetic section while Louis was at the men hygiene section. LOL.

Not long after that the whole shopping complex was shutting down. We had no choice but to just sit around and chat for a bit. Thank goodness time flies. The wait was quick. XD Took some photos too.

*punch*

=p

Anyway the movie Inception was just amazing. At first I wasn't too sure what to expect coz it seemed like a rather "too much talk" kinda movie, but then it's been getting good reviews from those who have watched it. It's really a movie worth paying for. I kinda don't like the ending of the movie though. Oh well~

Will update soon again. =)

The curve outing

Oh my gosh I'm so sorry for the lack of updates lately. I'm just really not in the mood to update my blog.

I went to The Curve with Louis 2 weeks ago, he had to drop by his client's place and I had to shop for a birthday gift for Melvin who was throwing his 21st birthday that same night.

Louis and me on our way to The Curve.

It was just the day after my severe stomach cramp so I was still feeling rather weak, but I was excited at the same time coz we were going to watch Despicable Me. XD

Me~ =p

I accompanied Louis to his client's place for awhile and met some of his colleagues. Then we bought our tickets for Despicable Me then had lunch at Sakae Sushi. I didn't have much to eat there coz Japanese cuisine may be healthy, but it's not slimming. XD But since I was still weak from the night before, I decided to have some ramen, ate only a quarter of it then passed it all to Louis. XD

I look super old here. =.=

Anyway the movie was just awesome! It was so darn hilarious in the middle I just couldn't stop laughing. XD After the movie we just walked around a lil more then Louis sent me all the way to PJ to attend Melvin's birthday party, then he headed back to his client's place to settle some stuff.

With JernKhang waiting for the rest of the guest to arrive.

It was raining that night and the LRT failed, as usual la, typical Malaysia public transport. Sigh~

Melvin's friends... So paiseh I'm the only one sitting. LOL.

Me and Melvin. =)

The foundation gang... Only half managed to make it to the party, but still it was nice to meet them all again. =)

After the party Louis came and fetch me and we headed back to The Curve to catch another movie. Too bad there weren't many movies left for us to watch so we we stuck with Flirting Scholar 2. A lousy movie, I almost fell asleep in the cinema. =.=

Oh well, had an overall nice day that day. =)

Will update more soon.

What's the meaning of friendship?

What's the meaning of friendship? How do you judge the importance of a friendship? How do you determine which friend is more important than the other? Are you even suppose to do that?

A friend is only important when they treat you as importantly as you treat them. Otherwise, they're just pieces of shit altogether. - JJR

You know how some people think that they're closer to one friend so they tend to side them more? For example, people side on friends they've known for years rather than friends they've just met for a year. People also tend to side on friends they spend most of their time with instead of friends they only keep in touch with once in awhile.

I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm saying it's normal to do so.

But lately I have my own questions to a gang of friends I thought I knew very well off. They turned out to be nothing but a disappointment. I'm not the main actress in the movie right now, but rather someone who's watching the movie. Even though I'm just a bystander, I just couldn't help but to feel pissed off.

Sometimes it's not so much about friendship, but also morality, and your character. Sometimes if you think only of friendship regardless of morality, it makes you less worthy of a person. Especially when your action affects another friend.

So much of years of friendship, but when it came down to the critical matter, they've all just turned into pieces of shit. Jerks, as a matter of fact.

I don't care how they explain or what excuses they manage to come up with for themselves to feel better, they're just pieces of shitless jerks that I regret knowing.

Because the person they hurt, is a friend I care about.

What could have been if I went along with that guy?

Starting the post with a picture.

This is just another random photo of myself.

Enough narcissism, but here's the topic of the day. I'm sure most girls out there have had at least 1 suitor who didn't end up being their bf. So have you ever wonder what it would be like if you had just given him the chance?

I'm just sharing and not bragging, but I've had quite a few suitors since I turned 16. The suitors stop coming when I turned 21-22. I guess it's the age, I'm too old. LOL. Anyway, I'm still in contact with some of the suitors, who are now my friends, some I have them on Facebook but we don't contact each other.

Now the thing is, I've been browsing through Facebook alot lately coz I'm just that lifeless at home. It struck me that most of these guys are now happily involved in a relationship, or at least in a relationship regardless happy or not. Then I got to see those lovey doey photos of them with their gf. So it got me wondering, what could have been if I just went along with that guy? Would the girl in the photos be me?

It's not that I regret letting the guys go, I don't. I appreciate the time we had together but I don't regret my decision. I'm happy that they're happy. Still, I can't help to wonder, what could have been if I had just went along with him?

Most of the time it didn't work out coz the feeling just didn't felt right at the moment, not because they're lousy or not good enough. So these guys are actually all nice guys that girls can actually date, but I got to know them at the wrong time.

So what could have been? Hmmmm...

Baby Brownie again!

Show you all something cute ok?

I was browsing through the desktop folders downstairs in the study room and I came across some photos of Brownie when she was just about 3 months old. I've really forgotten how cute and lil she used to be. Now she's just one very big girl who's very naughty. LOL.

Tired~

Asleep~

Painful night

Wanted to update my blog on Friday but things just kinda got out of hand.

I was suppose to head to the movies with Louis on Friday night but as I went down to the kitchen to grab my sweet corn dinner, I accidentally dropped the plate and I dunno how, I cut my hand. Brownie was so scared when the plate hit the ground, she ran frantically away. LOL.

Anyway, as I mentioned, I cut my hand. There were a lot of blood coz the the cut was quite deep. Having delayed my dinner for almost 2 hours, I was very weak at the moment. You see, I've been on a very strict low calorie diet for bout 6 weeks now and whenever I don't eat my dinner on time, I get very weak.

So with the massive blood flowing from my left hand and my body weakens due to the lack of food, I blanked out a few times. My eyes couldn't see a thing and I knew I was about to pass out soon. I was really afraid of passing out coz I didn't wanna end up in the hospital. So I quickly took some yogurt with cornflakes down my body but it only made me feel like puking. =.=

So in a few minutes time I wasn't so dizzy anymore but I felt sick to the stomach. I went to the toilet wanting to puke but instead I had a severe stomach pain.

The pain lasted for more than an hour. I was crying and cold sweating throughout the entire time. It was just a very severe stomach cramp. All I could do was just lay on the bed with my clothes all soaking wet from the tears and sweat for more than an hour. And finally, the pain stopped and I dozed off on the bed just like that coz I was too tired.

Woke up bout 20 minutes later, still resting on the bed fearful that the pain might return. Bout an hour later, I got myself out of the bed and took a shower, had some warm drink and that was my night. So darn pitiful.

Sigh...

Girls should dress appropriately.

Today's topic is as above. I'm trying bloody hell hard to not upload any photos of myself for the mean time until at least 2 months later. Not so sure if it'll work, but you guys are stuck with topics like this for the mean time. LOL.

I've always had trouble with guys in singlets and shorts unless they're going for sports, coz I don't really like to see skin on men. Now I have an even bigger problem with girls and their spaghetti strap tops and their mini shorts. =.=

Spaghetti strap tops and mini shorts are very sexy, and if you've got the body, you've got to show it. But, that theory only applies to certain circumstances.

It's like, you wear spaghetti strap tops and mini shorts to class, when you go shopping, when you go on a date, when you go pasar malam, when you go mamak yumcha, when you go tuition, when you go for sports, when you go to the beach, when you go traveling, when you're going for a nice night out with your girl friends and you even wear that to bed!

For goodness sake, you don't have any other clothes one meh? How bout a pair of jeans, or a mini skirt, or a dress????!!!!

Being overdressed is acceptable, but being under dressed is no excuse. Imagine if you held a big party for all your friends and one of them turns up in spaghetti strap top and mini shorts pair with sandals. It's like that person don't even give a damn bout how important the party is to you, and decided to just turn up in her pajamas.

Same theory applies again, what would you feel if a guy who's interested in you dates you out wearing singlets and knee length shorts? It's like he doesn't respect you and think of the date as a trip to the gym.

I'm not saying you shouldn't wear spaghetti strap tops and mini shorts at all, coz if I did say anything like that, I'm pretty sure there'll be at least 100 guys waiting to kill me while I walk down the street. I'm just saying that, you should dress accordingly.

If you're going to class, wear something more appropriate, something that others will take you seriously. If you're going on a date, wear something that will make both you and your date special and proud. If you're going traveling on a non beach theme, wear jeans or a nice casual dress. If you're going to a party or a girl's night out, wear a dress, or something classy.

You're not a 5 year old girl anymore, don't dress like you don't give a damn, coz others do. I know you're gonna start defending by saying "I dress for my own, why should I dress to please others?".

Ya, we should dress for our own, but it's also important for us to dress accordingly to gain the respect and acknowledgment that we all want. You don't want to be the girl that when everyone sees will say "Neh, it's that girl is spaghetti strap top and mini shorts again". WTF. It almost sounds like you've got nothing else in your wardrobe.

And p/s, wearing spaghetti strap tops and mini shorts all the time doesn't make you sexy, it only makes you lala. So give what I wrote a thought.

How to not be an average Jane

So like I mentioned in my previous post, I'll be writing on how an average Jane can turn herself around and not be average anymore. It's just some minor attitude and behavior adjustment, I'm sure pretty much anyone is able to do it.

Be confident

Yes you're just an average Jane. No outstanding looks, no smart brains, no unique personality. You're just plain old you. You might feel inferior when put in the same room with other girls who are obviously not an average Jane. But don't let that scare you away from the limelight of any occasion. You might be average in your qualities, but be confident that, if you want to change, you can change. There must be something about you that is special, everyone is different, it's just the matter whether you're showing it right. You are not any less worthy than others, so always be confident, and that will be the first step of turning into a new leaf.

Share yourself

Most of the average Jane are kinda introvert. They don't really mix around with people from the opposite sex and always mingle around the usual same group. Sometimes they even feel reluctant to hang out with their friends and are much comfortable staying home with the TV. If you do not put yourself out there, nobody can help you. You need to share yourself with the world, and not keep it all to yourself. Now I'm not asking you to go around allowing guys to take advantage of you. What I'm suggesting here, is for yourself to gain more exposure of different kind of people and mingle around. You'd be surprise how much you'd learn from others and also it'll definitely change your way of thinking and you'd be at least different in a good way.

Change your look

The biggest reason you're categorized as an average Jane is due to how you look on the outside. Any person who dresses to impress are far from being average. I'm no fashion master so I can't tell you exactly the names of clothes you should avoid, but I can try my best to describe. Try wearing clothes that flatter your body. Don't wear loose round neck T-shirt or plain looking jeans all the time. It's just doesn't look as flattering as you think it is. It looks dull if you ask me. My uni has tons of girls wearing round neck t-shirts with plain loose jeans, sometimes with a sweatshirt on too, and it just look so sloppy. Jeans are super sexy if you can get one with darker shade and fits your body just nice. Pair it with some cute tops instead of plain T-shirts, they're plenty of tops you can wear. If you have slim legs, show them off. Stop wearing knee length pants with many pockets (something like golf pants) when you're going out with your friends, it's just really really not feminine. Wear a dress to some occasions, depending on the atmosphere. Being feminine attracts the guys. You're a woman, so accentuate your best body feature. Everyone has at least one strong feature.

Make up

Natural is beauty, bullshit. If you're born perfect, then the saying applies to you. But if you were born perfect, you wouldn't be an average Jane now would you? Slap on some light make up when you're going to fancy places. It doesn't need to be heavy, just enough to cover your flaws and bring out your strong feature. Concealer, mascara and a nude lip gloss will help you go a long way. The appropriate type of make up will make you look naturally beautiful. There're only lazy women, not ugly women. And even the prettiest women on earth uses make up, so why not give it a try? Get some useful tips from make up tutorials, or get your best friend to help you with them. Having contact lenses with pupil enlarging effects also help make your eyes pop.

Be open

Be open to everything you do. Hang out with different people, go to places you never think you would. You'll never know who you'll meet when you try new things. If you get a bigger exposure, the probability of a guy being attracted to you will also increase. If you're not in to attract guys, no problem. Simply mixing around with different types of people and socializing around improves your charisma. If you have a good charisma, you're anything but average. It'll definitely built up your personality.

Talk more

Do not blend in with the others. The last thing you would wanna do when at an occasion is to be like everyone else. If you're a shy person, get over it. You can't go far if you're shy. If people are talking about a topic, jump in to the conversation. Make yourself memorable. Don't just sit aside and listen, coz no one will even notice your existence. The guys would never admit it, but they actually prefer a girl who has an opinion. Which guy would wanna talk all the time with the girl just nodding and listening? The only guy who likes that is probably gonna be Hitler. =.=

Learn to flirt

If you spot a guy you're interested to know, flirt. I think I've written a post on how to flirt, check it out from my sidebar under the "Interesting Posts" if you want to. Flirting doesn't mean showing your boobs or talking dirty. Flirting is talking attractively. Master the art of flirting and you wouldn't pass as an average Jane no more. Trust me. I had a friend who everyone asked "She pretty meh? How come so many guys after her one?". I must admit, she was just another average Jane. But she flirts like some flirt guru and the guys can't help falling for her. Come to think of it, guys are actually very easy to attract. LOL.

Ultimate trick

I guess the overall problem of an average Jane is that, they're mostly shy/afraid/inferior/uncomfortable when it comes to socializing with guys and prefers not to do it at all. Guys are actually more easy going that girls. You can practically talk bout anything with them without worrying that you might hurt their feelings or them bitching behind your back (except for gays). Don't feel reluctant to talk to guys, they're harmless. Try to mix with more guys or go on 1-1 dates with a guy friend. That'll help overcome your problem. You have to overcome this problem or you will never be visible to the guys. Being uncomfortable around guys is like having a virtual wall around you that only the guys can see. They can't sense your presence and worst, they don't notice you at all.

I hope the tips help. But I must add a disclaimer, these are just all my opinions. Thanks for reading. =)

Average Jane

The other day I was just thinking bout some stuff and it came across my mind. How is it that some decent girls who are average looking never even gets a chance with the guys? It's like they have absolutely no guys going after them at all since they were born. FYI I'm talking bout young ladies age between 18-26.

I know quite a lot of girls who are in my opinion, smart, from a good family, decent, proper, well behaved, and most certainly not ugly at all who are still single and has never once been gone after by a guy. I'm not saying that it's a must that any girl should have a courter, it's just that why is it that there's not even one guy interested in girls like them?

I've seen girls who are less qualified as in those who doesn't have a proper attitude/personality with lotsa bad habits having more courters than you can imagine. What are the guys thinking?

Aside from those girls who are easy, as in they are willing to put out (have sexual intercourse) easily, and not discussing bout one's appearance or attitude, I think attractiveness is one of the main thing that keeps the guys going after a girl.

Now we're gonna discuss solely about girls who are average overall. Let's face it, out of 10 girls you'd see in a restaurant, only bout 1-2 would be considered as pretty, and sometimes, 10 out of 10 would be the normal average Jane. So if you look average, you can't afford to have an average personality and you most certainly can't afford to behave average.

Being average means being normal. Being normal means blending in. Imagine yourself blending in with another 50 average Jane in a party/dinner you're at. Now ask yourself this, if this was an average Joe amongst 50 other average Joe, would you even notice him?

The same theory applies for the girls. Guys look at appearance first, every guy does. If you're an average Jane, you've got the 50% in your hand, whether they'll be interested in you, or they won't. The thing is, if they do not notice you, you will never have a chance to earn the remaining 50%. Get what I mean?

There are just too many average Jane out there, and if you do not find a way to make your personality pop, no one will notice you.

True case scenario: I have a guy friend who's been in the same class with the same girl for almost 3 years, but he doesn't even know she existed. Why? Coz she was an average Jane. She wasn't ugly nor weird, wasn't pretty nor unique, she was average and normal, just like all the rest of the girls in the class.

Being different is not being weird, or the odd one out. Being different, means being memorable. Trust me, you'd want to be memorable instead of forgetable.

This post is getting too long, so I'll write a post next bout how an average Jane can transform herself into being someone unique, and not just another average Jane.

Stay tuned. =)

Running out on ideas

Someone asked me today, how come I don't write bout relationship topics anymore? You know, the kind that I used to write about last time. You can refer to some of them by clicking on the "Interesting Posts" at the side bar. This person is a long time blog reader of mine, so I really appreciate it when he asked me to continue writing on those topics.

It's not that I don't wanna write bout those topics anymore, it's just that, there's no inspiration for me. Few years back I started writing on those topics coz I was in a relationship. But now, I'm just single old me, and it's really hard to write about relationships especially when I'm not in one.

I mean, who would read advices or opinions on relationship from someone who's not even in a relationship? It's like learning culinary from someone who don't even cook.

So ya, I guess that's why I just stopped writing on relationships.

I'd love to write bout how bitter and jealous I am about others who are in a relationship, but that would make my blog too emo. (Actually, I just got an idea to write a post bout it.)

I have absolutely nothing to write about. If I were to write bout my feelings every two other days, you would think I'm about to take my own life. Seriously.

I just feel so not motivated and depressed sometime.

Regardless of all that, I'm still open to blog post title suggestions though, so email me some topics that you would want to read bout, or leave a comment.
