unguilty leisure-surfing

the job is getting quite boring these days. therefore i kept finding excuses to spend more and more time to fall asleep go online.

i've always been the nerd, getting twisted with words, always finding word-games as FUN but i never really liked scrabbles though. i'm so addicted to bookworm deluxe (explains my word-nature, haha), i'd spent hours playing. those days.

while browsing through timedotcom 50 best websites for the year 2008, i stumbled upon the freerice website. i used to do thehungsersite longtime ago, but it was boring since you get to click only once a day for a cup of rice.

my latest addiction combines play with donation. you get to play guess the meaning of a word. for every word you guessed correctly, you get 10 grains of rice. yea, only 10 grains is not enough to feed a famished person. but the aim of the project is to have more people playing since a lot of people are playing at the same time, therefore the goal to feed the hungry is reaching out.

for every gram, there are 48 grains. a balanced diet calculates 400grams for a person, therefore if i were to feed a person, i should get 19200 rice grains, which is equal of 1920 words guessed correct.

oh, why do i even typing this entry? i should be guessing words, now.

p/s: the green banner is for the site. it is VERY addictive, i'm becoming a junkie.

ahmad leaves

too bad. you're smart, you're cute, you speak 4 languages, you've got the looks, but you're short. too bad.

yep this guy is leaving for the greener pasture. a sense of loss though we don't know each other personally. less one reason of why i should come to work.

i was being patronized of being picky.

..... of which i answered:


  • i'm being delusioned into believing i'm picky after very serious drilling by you.
  • i'm a pessimist when it comes to relationships
  • i'm VERY obsessed with my ideals

and again i was accused of being cruel. to myself. it just doesn't make sense.

why i'm not on fb

well, literally. you won't find me on fb using my REAL FULL NAME. or even my email address. i chose to cheat the system and i only have 4 friends. one of them successfully forced made me sign-up for it last week.

and the other reasons are here. i just don't bother, and i don't understand all the hype about it.

recovering sworn addict

speaking of which, i just bought another shoo yesterday. no, i don't intend to recover or go to rehab for this. muahaha! now, where is imelda?

neither am i ashamed of my addiction to good food. being where i am now with VERY easy access to food make me a shameful salivating wuman who chomps on anything on a plate and with gravy.

but these days, i just have to be extra careful with the eating places i go to.
  • some place that looked halal on the outside doesn't mean it serves halal food.
  • some place that served halal food does serve alcohol.
  • ditanggung halal logo is not the same with the halal jakim logo and definitely doesn't mean it is halal since jakim doesn't certify.
  • no pork, no lard doesn't mean it's halal.
  • malay servers and waitresses don't mean the outlet is halal.

there were very few muslim food-bloggers, therefore the non's do mostly the reviews on the good food. sometimes they tag an outlet that don't serve pork but freely provide beers as halal, since they do not know the exact conditions to have the halal flag. and since some close-minded malays also patronized these kind of places contributed to this major confusion.

one of the non's expressed his confusion of how does an outlet gets a halal tag, because some outlets are only pork-free but serves beer and vice versa. it takes much more than being a pork and alcohol free outlet to get the certification from jakim - the board which monitors halal status. the certification process is tedious and consumes time and money, that is why certain operators opted not and ditched the halal logo altogether. surprise inspection is also a hard rule to abide to.

so, the food served may be halal, but can we be assured that the utensils used aren't tampered with the non-halal stuffs? that they aren't put together in the dishwasher? it's either halal or non-halal, not this stuff is halal, that is not, in the same food outlet.

i'm not a devout muslim, but i try my best to be one. and it all begins with the food i eat. kerana setiap makanan yang dimakan akan menjadi darah dan daging. baik makanan yang dimakan, mudahlah melakukan ibadah dan kebajikan, jika tidak?

makanya, tepuk dada, tanyalah iman. islam itu mudah, bukan bermakna kita boleh memudahkan mengikut selera tekak kita.

my favourite phrase

these days, it is very easy to get to my point with a single phrase, which has also became my easily said phrase in a while.

it is WTF.

why? because it is the easiest exclamation that summarizes everything.
  • when i hear on tv or read about politics on the papers, i said WTF.
  • when i read chedet, i said WTF.
  • when i'm not satisfied with something or someone, i said WTF.
  • when the bus is late, i said WTF.
  • when i just don't understand what's going on, i said WTF.

see? the phrase fits any occasion, provided that i'm saying that mostly to myself. this post shows that i'm seriously in need of therapy : in other words seeing a shrink, or to my dictionary it rather means a serious holiday from all this WTF. but then again, WTF should i care?

random thoughts

  • the playlist i posted yesterday was the therapy i put myself in for misbehaving the other day. the way of telling i'm sorry. but then wtf the playlist has to do with the regret right? nah, it was a bunch of songs that made me thought back of what happened, and why i should never acted like that, again.
  • the issue with the oku yesterday made me very thankful to Allah that i was born with enough to get me going. that oku had the rights to act like that, maybe he had enough of those bad experiences, but there's still good people in this world, who would've shown him genuine sympathy but maybe that's the least he needed: sympathy. i may not have felt and went through all like he did, but i'm still a human, with very weak knees. (now, i sound like a mental 60-y0 with arthritis, cheh)
  • i am currently going through the mental phase, where i only have one single thought and it seems i can't get rid of it after its invasion. i don't mind of it, though it seems to get on my nerves here and there.


him : panas la kl.

me : kl panas, tapi tak panas cam melaka.

him : peh, panas cam ni ko cakap x panas? ko keluar rumah gi keje kul bape?

me : er, kuar pagi 630, balik pun sampai dalam 730, aku memang tak jumpa matahari.

him : cheh, patutla ko cakap tak panas, tak jumpa matahari rupanya. hahaha.


.... ah, those beautiful beady eyes.

a morning in the lrt

playlist for today :
  • k.perry - thinking of you
  • o. range - ikenai taiyo
  • nitrus - sisa
  • t. swift - lovestory
  • estranged - aurora
  • b. spears - circus
  • paramore - decode
  • camp rock - we rock! (err, this one the result of forced feed of d'sney channel)


eh, aku nak cite benda lain sebenarnye.

this morning, i was patiently waiting for the lrt fresh from base.
i managed to get a seat and i saw an oku blind in one eye. he was standing near me coz the seats were all occupied. my legs were very sore from standing in the bus and i needed a few minutes of sitting.

meanwhile, the oku was mumbling something very loudly, until i realized even though he was wearing earphones he wasn't talking on the phone. i heard something like "benci betul, tak kesian ke" more than once, repeating the same thing all over.

after 2 stations and i've had my share of sitting, i offered my seat to that oku. but he blatantly refused. giving his attitude previously, i should've expected that.

ah, my fault really.

rumusan weekend dan cuti

saturday

did the usual stuff until 1pm. was fixing up the lappie when i was dragged into a very long chitchat on the phone. haih, habis time tido petang aku.
sabtu ialah malam cerekarama, juga hari untuk rilek-rilek.


sunday

downloaded a few songs after settling for 6-months-old songs. went out to ou, one of the most enjoyable outings in a while, not the place, but the pleasurable company. >:)

got home very early and continued leeching. a rather plain sunday.


monday

public holiday, but gotta go to work. a slow monday, but incidents to attend to on livesupport. chist, tak dapat balik awal. grateful for the sister who bought and brought lunch over. sayang ko la, hahaha!


and the past two days, my mind had been invaded by this particular thought. kinda think it's too good to be true. but worth trying anyway. cloud nine please! hehe.

oh, the short posts with pictures are the ones i did with my moblog, mobile-blogging. my phone has the blog function, yeay!

i've got LOTS of plans, am praying that all of that will be able to materialize. Insya-Allah.

Comparisons are easily turned
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed

You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test

He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...

You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know

Looking into your eyes
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door
And take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay...

k.perry - thinking of you
