Rabbit food is yummy~
I think I'm gonna be sick::~
NOT H1N1 laaaaa::~
*Choii*
This video just made me REAL NAUSEOUS::~
If that fish can SCREAM...
Here's some general knowledge regarding the above fish:~
Ikizukuri is Japanese for “prepared alive”, and refers to the preparation of sashimi from a still living animal. The sashimi chefs who prepare ikizukuri are skilled enough to fillet and gut the fish without killing it, and then the ikizukuri is served on a plate with the heart still beating.
Credits to Cheeserland
O.o
Poor fish::~
I just converted into a vegetarian::~
No joke::~
I can't CHEW on any meat with out thinking of THAT FISH::~
Thank you, fish::~
Bless your little soul~
And may you rest in peace whichever fish Heaven you're at::~
You've just saved lots of chickens and cows and EVEN MORE fish from being my victim::~

Orange Borange::~
I know::~
It's getting from a monthly routine to a daily one::~
Why~?
Cuz it's that time of semester where I'm in front of my lappy::~
24/7
typing out notes~!!!
So you must be thinking::~
"Woa~! meLLie's so studious~!!!"
So, I'll reply (to your thoughts)::~
Perez Hilton, Style.com, Tongue in Chic and DiaryOAES::~
Mainly take up almost 50% of my screen-staring time::~
So, it's 3am::~
I'm still awake::~
Doing revision::~
*So studious*
Dlisted on my Mozilla now::~
So is Hotmail.com::~
Waiting for Simon and his boys to wake::~
Wanna call him and wish him happy mountain climbing::~
<3
Then I figured they would probably need
to take their own sweet time to GET UP::~
We, girls, get up early to bathe... dress... look DECENT::~
That's where we spend time on::~
Guys just spend time on The Act Of GETTING-OFF The Bed::~
So I thought::~
Let's have some oranges while I wait::~
Then I proceed to pick an orange from the fridge::~
Wash it::~
Get a plate::~
Wash that::~
And by the time I finished washing everything::~
The counter is wet::~
I put the wet plate on the wet counter::~
And proceed to cutting up my orange::~
*I washed the knife too::~*
I sliced it once::~
and NEARLY TOOK MY THUMB OFF~!
Okay::~
I admit I've never sliced oranges without adult supervision::~
I used to eat oranges by peeling the skin off::~
The whole juice-dripping fruit in my palm::~
:) Yum*
But now::~
At 3am in the morning::~
I decided to finally make use of the knife::~
& due to the wet counter and wet plate::~
When I tried to slice through the orange::~
The whole plate slide across the counter::~
And I nearly decapitated my thumb::~
Note to self::~
Go back to peeling oranges::~
Tastes juicier that way too, anyway::~
(^.~)
Okay::~
Time to call the B'boy::~
Hmmm::~
What should I say~?

*Imagining I'm at one of em' "Night at the Museum" museums::~ *
That's Petronas Science btw::~
I saw some REAL tourists (kids) posing with it::~
and immediately had the urge to join in the fun::~
Someone bring me overseas~
:(
I wanna be a tourist too~!
I've been such a good girl, I tell you::~
I finished 3 tests and one aSimon (assignment)::~
In ONE measly WEEK::~
THE most hectic week of 2009::~
No joke~
Anyhow::~
I stayed awake for an entire night till ard 12noon the next day::~
Doing assignment &
Babysit Simon's Restaurant City &
Perez Hilton-ing::~
I did the last one to stay awake O-K~?
It works~!
Reading celeb gossips work better than em' Double Espresso(s)::~
Going through Perez Hilton::~
Here's a gorgeous gown that made my style nerves tingle::~
I love love love
the nude floor-length Alberta Ferretti gown::~
Worn by actress Drew Barrymore::~
The gown just morphs with her milky white skin perfectly~!!!
:)))
Which reminds me::~
My style shot for Tongue in Chic came::~
I met Grace (from Tongue in Chic)
in the latest Soho KL Bazaar::~
And she snapped my style shot::~
She's a really hard working girl::~
Her motto was::~
"Work then Shop"::~
I do the exact opposite::~
Hehe::~
Click *here* to read the article by Grace~
:)
Anywayz::~
After emailing the assignment to Thomas::~
;)
Thanks for printing and your guidance::~
Cuz by 10am I was THIS close to just shutting down mentally::~
I slept for 6 hrs::~
During that 6 hrs::~
The laptop was still running::~
Simon's Restaurant City ppl ~
Died from no food or rest::~
Haha::~
Anyway::~
I woke for dinner::~
& since it's only friday night::~
I thought dinner would be nice & simple and "nearby"::~
*emphasizing "simple"*
I dressed in a daze:~
And they rushed me into the car::~
Where I promptly continued snoozing::~
Vaguely::~
I heard my Dad ask my Mom::~
"Dear, where d' you wanna have dinner~?"
My Mom replied::~
"I feel like Thai Cuisine, Amarin Thai in Mid Valley sounds good~"
And me -half asleep- thought::~
"OMGoshh, I underdress so much they bring me to have dinner in Amarin~!"
Then I heard my Dad say::~
"Mid Valley's always so traffic congested ."
"KLCC okay~?"
MY HEART FELL~
And I broke my personal record::~
Wearing pasar malam clothes out for a fancy dinner in KLCC::~
We ate at Chakri Palace::~
They have never had such an underdressed customer::~
Aka me::~
*Toh Hai* means slippers in Cantonese:~
Anyway::~
I thought the food was gonna be yummy::~
It IS a 5 star restaurant after all::~
And since I've been sleeping the entire day::~
I was STRAVING~
My mom had a saying::~
"When you're hungry, ANY food will taste great~"
I agreed with her::~
UNTIL NOW::~
As hungry as I was::~
Their food was beyond unsatisfactory::~
Allow me to elaborate::~
I tried their Pandan Chicken 1st::~
And noticed that it wasn't salty enough::~
Then I tried the veggie dish::~
And THAT was super salty::~
Then my Tom Yam seafood soup came::~
The prawns were POWDER-ish::~
Meaning they are not fresh AT ALL::~
Goshh~
THAT was the last straw~
I told my Mom::~
And while she was complaining talking to the manager::~
The fish dish came::~
I tried the sauce::~
It was COLD::~
Not even freaking Room Temperature::~
=_______________="""
And after that I ordered a freaking RM11.50 Soursop juice::~
It came warm::~
X.x
The next time we're opting to have Thai Cuisine for dinner::~
I'm offering to drive to MidValley~
My dad can sit back and relax::~
AND we can enjoy QUALITY & GOOD food::~

It's like a breath of fresh air::~
(:
It's kinda long::~
But it's really refreshing & meaningful::~
Learn to carry a candle to remove
the darkness...
from my yoga sensei, Beth::~
I dont like flipping through daily newspapers,
TV or internet as there is more gloomy news
than good ones.
When I do that, I make sure I do the minimum,
just to stay informed with
the latest social development.
But whatever I read or hear,
I am not quiet sure as
how true and reliable they are.
Because if I were to take seriously of all that,
then, it feels as if
we are heading toward
the doomsday in any time soon.
Every day, everywhere,
the media is so busy to stir up insecurity,
provoke fear and manipulate power that
which only increases the chain reactions of
panic and tension in public.
We human beings cant thrive too well
when functioning from
fear, insecurity and threats.
Under constant tensions and threats,
we are likely to become
more defensive and destructive
than positive and optimistic.
The sole purpose of the media is just to
provoke all kinds of
fears, worries and insecurities
in us as much as they can.
The 99% of what they are reporting,
circulating is all about
problems and corruptions here,
tragedy and disasters there,
if not gossiping about
the celebrities' latest affairs
or their yo-yo weights.
The media just loves to offer us with a perpetual drip,
drip of scary stuff.
They have the scoop on the latest threat;
and they're graciously letting us know,
offering advice, warning us, blah-blah-blah.
What do they get in return?
They get to control us by playing our psychic and survival instincts,
so that they can sell their agendas on behalf of
the institutional powers they are representing;
so that they get to manipulate us into buying whatever
the dominant market forces might want to sell.
Isn't that a great pity
to play the helpless puppets in their string?
Isn't that a waste of our time,
precious life just to sit around
feeling worried and scared all the time,
instead of going out to see what else life has to offer?
Is our life meant to do nothing but just to
defend and prepare against any possible odds in life,
like accidents, diseases, tragedy, robbery and cheats
that which might or might not happen to us?
I dont think so.
As Mark Twain said, 98% of our fears never come true.
Life meant to sustain itself to live, not to annihilate.
It was never meant to be
continual disaster and tragedy of one kind and another.
When we open our eyes and hearts,
there are so much goodness and beauty
than those ugly things
that the media not are reporting to us.
Why are they doing that?
It's the game of control they play;
gloomy news attracts more attention
and it is easier to control people
through fear rather than hope.
They are out to increase their power
and control
by constantly reminding us with
what is lacking
and what we need to have more,
rather than what we already have are enough
and thereby need to share more with others,
together to elevate the qualities of our lives
and uplift our spirit to soar towards
the highest and noblest causes.
It is our natural desire to be happy and well,
and we deserve just that,
to enjoy
and to become the best we meant to be in life.
While some say, there are so much evil,
injustice and wrongdoings rampant
in the world out there,
and the global economic crisis
is yet to hit our shore,
how can we just sit and relax and take it easy?
Then, what do they suggest instead?
Up and down,
wail and cry every time some bomb knocks off
people in somewhere far off country,
or go crazy together with volatile stock market?
Or keep up with whatever they suggest,
by buying this and that,
by upgrading this and that,
so that we can feel safe and secure,
or work 24/7 not to get hit by retrenchment?
I really don't believe that is the way
to counter life's darkness
that which will be always there
as a part of package offered in
the school of life we all have enrolled.
It is written in the Pantanjali Yoga Sutra that,
when the negative feelings restrict us,
the opposite should be cultivated.
Why not inculcate the better habit
of carrying a candle
whenever you see darkness is looming?
By nature, we are resilient beings,
not much physically compared to the rest of mammals,
but mentally and spiritually we are enormously strong.
We are much more magnanimous beings than we know of,
capable of gaining full enlightenment
in this life time like
the Buddha,Jesus, Socrates, Mother Teresa,
Gandhi, Nelson Mandela,
and many others who walked on the earth as we do.
What is common in them?
They all went against
what their social conventions tried to sell it to them.
They didn't buy into it,
neither fought;
but simply acted accordingly
what they felt right in their heart;
they didn't toil or struggle
to standoff against the giant odds in their society.
Instead they simply lived
and did their own thing regardless of
what others or authorities might say.
They carried a candle to lighten up their life
and others regardless of the wind or tornado.
Why can't we?
How?
Be watchful of negative energy,
bad people and
all other kinds of basic do's and don'ts
to keep your family and you safe and healthy.
But donĂ¢€™t become neurotic or go hysterical
until you have to sleep
with an electrical bat
just in the case a thief comes in at night
(my boy's school friend who lives in a bungalow
with bullet proof doors does that). O.o
Your very focus on the negative things in life,
in fact, can backfire you like a powerful magnet,
as we attract what we put our attention the most.
Be vigilant
but don't forget to breathe and be serene.
In challenging times like this,
where goodness, kindness, and optimism
seem so scarce to come by...
Soooo...
Lighten up, yall~!
Be happy and radiate that to others::~
;)
