It has been ages since i have even VISITED my own webbie. Like anyone views it anyways. 

I've been very excited about episode III Revenge of the Sith lately. Its become routine for me to wake up 3 in the morning and watch any of the star wars 2 triogies, I'm starting to have dreams about Padme(natalie portman) and i'm getting very little sleep due to the overwhelming excite and long wait... But unlike most fans, I'm watching it on the 15th!!! 4 days from the official public viewing!!! MUAHAHAHAHA. The Force is strong with me. anyways, School WILL start on the 19th, so thats really fucked up. How in the Force cud it clash with the FIRST day??? The Force works in strange way...really strange ways.

On 27th i went to cosplay. Dun really feel like writting about it.  But it was absolutely fun. Fabulous looking babes, lovely girls, cute chicks. EVERYTHING THERE LOVELY!!

But i was barefooted all the way. Haiz. check it out here.

I went to the LOTR line party at LIDO on the 17^th. It was great! Never expected it to be so fun. I came as Frodo, annas as a ringwraith, Hazel as Arwen and many others which I dun think u guys wud know. Anyways, we gathered at Orchard MRT first b4 goin to lido. Oh ya, I went barefooted from the station to Lido. Call me crazy, but I call it getting into character.

The party started with a mingling session(yes, many ppl came in costume), which was rather fun cos there were not so bad looking ppl there. Hehehe . Then there was the quiz session. Me, Hassan (sauron), DE (ringwraith), Xeno(gollum), and Yi Ling (ranger) was in our group. We scored damn low for our quiz cos we didn’t know one question and it was a 3 pointer. We lost terribly on that one. But becos of us, the group hazel and qing yuan was in scored an additional 3 points (cos we passed the question to them) and that made them the winners.

Next was skit competition. This was extremely fun. We made our own scene called the council of sauron. In which I was presented to sauron with the ring, but with a twist. It ended up in a cross over skit. From sauron saying “Frodo, I am your father.”  To slow-mo action complete with black shades. And yes, I, Frodo fought off 4 of saurons minions using my walking stick. Even evaded a few arrows. …BLISS.

We ended up winning the skit competition. Then there was the best 3 costumes competition…once again bliss. First to get announced top 3 was ranger from my group, followed by ME!!! And next Sauron!!!  All the winners from my group!!!! Cool huh. Won 2 pair of tickets to LOTR exhibition next year (their only stop in asia), a 20 percent discount voucher to the exhibit and 6 posters. Bliss.

The best part of the party was mixing with ppl…ok, ok GIRLZ. Some of the elves were just soo hot, with their bows and arrows one in particular, the hot and flashy Julia. But dun get me wrong, I was just looking for pleasure , I mean entertainment. (rollz eyes). Anyways, some of them came in really cool costumes. Ringwraiths looked really cool with their gauntlet and swords. And Sauron was just purely intimidating. Not to forget sweet hazel and fierce annas. (he had a hard time looking at girlz and hazel’s dress kept getting stepped on : P) Wad I enjoyed the most was the attention. Ladies called me cute J ..well, most of them at least. Took pics with lots of ppl.

Today was the movie outing day. Once again I went in costume and barefooted from orchard mrt to Cinileisure. But this time my commitment was tested greatly due to the rain and wet floor. Nevertheless a hobbit gotta do wad a hobbit gotta do. Danny brought his STING , yes the real one and let me play with it and hold it. (I cudn’t hold it cos of my staff)

Went walkng around orchard and stores first. Many ppl asked for photographs. A good thing of course. Before I forget, thank u zhao yin for holding on to my plastic bag. (very crucial point in this story)

Went inside taka and took pictures. Ppl just kept asking for my pic. Mostly foreigners. I love it man!! BLISS.

BLABLABLA. WE arrived at cini, met Danial and watched the movie. It was great. MAGNIFICENT!! I LOVE IT!! RETURN OF THE KNG ROX!!! Sat beside Hazel and we were like cheering and clapping during the good parts. And I was like boo-ing at Legolas’s parts. BLABLABLA. (just watch the movie ok?)

After the show which was at around 11:30. I found out that my deuter bag was missing. I was really grieved then. My hp , discman and many other stuff I hold dear to my heart was in it…Some ppl even put their camera in it. That made me feel extra awful. I was confused and my feelings were ambivalent then. Dan, xeno, zhao, annas hazel, qing yuan and some others tried to look for it. We did everything possible. Checked the information counter, security ..everywhere but in vain.

After all that trouble we regrouped. They asked me wad else they cud do. I told them everything had been done. Told them to go home. Called my parents using dan’s hp. Got shouted at. That made me extra sad . Dad said he wud pick me up…it was late..12:40+. The background music at the Cineplex was slow, sad and beautiful…I cried…

It was a mixed feeling. For one, I lost many things. I know now that my parents are ignorant. But on the other hand, I realise now that I got great friends. Friends who wud not leave  me in times of trouble. Dan kept saying to me that there is still hope even though I know it was only a fools’ hope.  Zhao, annas , QY, Hazel and xeno stayed behind ..Tried to cheer me up and stuff.

Hazel, qy and xeno tok a cab. Annas, zhao and dan followed me to orchard mrt to await my dad. They cheered me up and I managed to smile and laugh and stuff. Dad offered them a ride home since they were all going to dan’s house to stay over.

Dad was naggy at first. Useless nags but at least they were advices. We were ok after that. Went home, called Dan and he made me feel better. At least better enuff to slp. He promised me he will help me search the next day.

Today, I woke up at 11. Xeno called, told me he wanted to accompany me to search for my bag. Told him I wud call him later. Met dan at Friday prayers and after that annas called, saying he wanted to follow. We, (xeno, annas , dan and I) went to cini to check with lost and found. again. But to no avail. Haiz…we went out for a while, made me feel better.

Went home to my granny’s , my guardian. They already know abt it. Mom was on the phone. Granny said she wanted to speak. Talked to her, all she did was shout and accuse. Got irritated at her. Wad does she think? Blaming and shouting wud bring my stuff back? I was soo angry…sad….

Moments later my ‘mama’ –aunt and guardian called from Rotterdam. She asked nicely, with love in her voice. Not even angry at me. She told me not to be sad and all. But I cudn’t hold back the tears. Mixed feeling again. I was happy this time yet sad. Happy to know that some ppl loves me yet sad at the thought of my mom. Sheesh.

Later I found out that the bag going missing wasn’t my fault. I passed it to a non-costumer in the group, she kinda forgot about it and left it outside on the waiting area. Haiz, I dun blame her. I dun blame anyone, yet mom blames me and tries to blame everyone.

Wad can men do against such reckless hate…. ignorance…we can hope.

I hope the person who took my bag is happy, cos theres not enuff happiness to go around. Thankx, whoever it was who took my bag… you have opened my eyes. You made me see things a little clearer now.

PS: for those of you who think I’m a sissy for crying, listen to this. At least I have the guts to show tears, in sadness or in bliss.

Went to watch movie with Annas and Mubin early today. We managed to catch the 11.05 movie at causewaypoint. We watched 'LOVE ACTUALLY". I came into the cinema expecting something boring but it was obvious that i was awed at the movie's theme and the way it was all put out. Absolutely brilliant. A movie filled with intelligent jokes,  great twists , a little of political significance and i just had this warm feeling when watchin the movie. It was remarkerbly amazing. One of those movies u'd love to recommend to ur friends. : )

Then we went to eat and then we went to Sembawang shopping centre to kill time. (mubin had to meet his cousin at the mrt at around 4) It was like sooo ewww. I mean its nice and all  that they have cared to renovate the place but it still is the same. Boring place which doesn't sell much. Haiz, anyways, we met annas's mom and she gave us 5 bucks!! Each!! Needed the extra cash, really.

Then we ate again at causeway point. : P

Then me and annas went to PS for LOTR FIRST MEET UP. We were lke waiting at Delifrance and DE was like carrying a sign that says "LOTR MEET UP" It was like so embarrasing but hey, i'm used to it. Annas was like stiff and cudn't mix around but he got more friendly as time passed by. The ppl at the meet up. In order of appearance. DE, Xeno, QY, annas, me,Yi Ling (new), Nurul (new), Adam(new), david(new), Hazel, Fiona(new), Kenneth (new), Victoria(new) and Sarah.

Hahaz, it was sooo fun. Meeting new ppl and mingling around. we barely know each other and we act as though we are already buddy-buddy. we had many discussions, old and new. Made some acceptable jokes which were quite funny really. well, it was really humiliating ppl but who cares? Its all in the name of laughter. And a bit disappointed though. Of the 5 arwens goin on the 18th, i only find one pretty. And oh ya, hazel thanks for the one ring. Its really very nice.

Well, i have a feeling that the 17th and 18th is gona rox! Jus hope some asshole wun turn up as another frodo cos I'm the only one!!...for now at least

This week has been filled with LOTR stuff. Very busy and exciting week. I have found a new fellowship called FELLOWSHIP OF THE COSTUME. ( I know it sounds lame and weird but bear with me here, i'm both) It consists of 1 taller than usual Frodo, 1 Gollum-wanna be who hasn't even started on his costume, 1 not so wise Elrond and a pair of Arwens. : )  One pretty and the other not very so.

So we met too early on tues..my fault :P so we had lunch and played LAN. Then went to Wei Qi's house to collect the costumes. (yes, wei qi's mom is a tailor) The arwen costume looks soooo fabulous! 1 word dudes...bliss! And the elrond robe was nice, but i'll need to see the full costume b4 i'll be thoroughly impressed. We were like taking pics of the 2 and it was soo cool. And yes, the fellowship threw in a big laugh when i tried on my frodo wig. LOL, i have to admit, i look really funny in it. Ridiculous actually.... o_0    ---------thats how i look, well with afro-like hair and all.

After that ordeal, we packed our suff and left for BRAS BASAH! Gollum wanted to get our stuff, so the fellowship decided that if one goes, all goes. And thats exatly wad we did . At ARTS FRIEND (for those of u twits who dun get it, its a shop which sells arts stuff), gollum got some acrylic for his new SABER casing. I have to say this, for an 11 year old, that boy can do some serious shit. HE MADE HIS OWN LIGHTSABER FOR GODS SAKE! And i...i bought a small mirror. One that fits in my wallet. Why? Because it will remind me of how i look. The curse/bliss that had been casted upon me. ARGH! the horror.....

Anyways, we went to suntec after that. Went to Caesars and looked at all the cool swords that none of us wud commit to purchase, not now at least . Then we saw something i think u guys wud never guess....we saw the SPONGE BOB SQUARE PANTS BIKINI BOTTOM BASH

We waited soo long. Around half an hour b4 the show even started. And even after the show started, we have to wait for sponge bob to make an appearance. The pirate guy was cool. And spongebob and patrick just looks dumb cos they're big and uncharacter-like I'd go for the cartoon anyday. We had to rush off after that cos it was like 7 and some of us had to go home early, so we stuck to the fellowship's way. One goes, all goes.

Damn, i can't wait for 17th and 18th. Gonna meet all new ppl and the best thing of all, RETURN OF THE KING. I think i'm gonna cry in the movie so maybe i'll bring extra packets of tissue, jus in case. And the costumes gonna be great.and not to mention all the attention we'll get. Stares and laughter. Glares and mockery. But its gonna be memorable.....

ALL WE HAVE TO DECIDE IS WHAT TO DO WITH THE TIME THAT IS GIVEN TO US...

Lay down

Your sweet and weary head

Night is falling

You have come to journey's end

Sleep now

Dream of the ones who came before

They are calling

From across a distance shore

Why do you weep?

What are these tears upon your face?

Soon you will see

All of your fears will pass away

Safe in my arms

You're only sleeping

[Chorus]

What can you see

On the horizon?

Why do the white gulls call?

Across the sea

A pale moon rises

The ships have come to carry you home

And all will turn to silver glass

A light on the water

All souls pass

Hope fades

Into the world of night

Through shadows falling

Out of memory and time

Don't say

We have come now to an end

White shores are calling

You and i will meet again

And you'll be here in my arms

Just sleeping

[chorus]

And all will turn to silver glass

A light on the water

Grey ships pass

Into the West

Yesterday morning went Hari Raya-ing with malay class. Went to zuhara's house first b4 goin to annas's. He showed this really cool scream mask. It was supposed to have oozing blood comin down from the face but annas go and cut the tube off...haiz, some ppl are jus plain stupid...but its not my stuff so i dun give a damn (that sounds familiar) After his house we proceeded to Mubin's house and had lunch. The girlz found Mubin's cat-nikki cute. Which she is, in a matter of fact. Had to go early after that and leave the group as i had to meet hazel and zhao yin for 2/6 CLASS CHALET!!

Met them at AMK station and went to Pasir Ris via MRT. Met ding yong and tee hong at pasir ris station and proceeded to downtown east. It was trouble finding our chalet room at first but we finally settled down after knocking on a wrong door. : P

After a few minutes of mindless resting in the room, me , hazel and zhaoyin proceeded to escape theme park. Hazel was too scared to ride the rides so me and zhao (tts wat i call zhaoyin) had to ride the viking thingie, the panasonic indoor coaster and the go-cart thing ourselves. There was this upside-down spinning coaster thing which both hazel and i daren't ride so poor zhao had to ride it. While he was on it we bought some ice-kacang and a BIG candy floss. After zhao finished his ride we sat down on a bench and ate the goodies. We were like weirdoes. Me in the center holding the floss, zhao holding the ice-kachang which was very sweet and sour and hazel at the end seat. Candy floss drip on my pants, very pink sia... And ice kachang dropped on my shoes...haiz, but fun la. The floss hardened after a while and we really had to pull hard to get it separated.

Niways, enuff of yummys. The only rides hazel rode on was double go-cartin with zhao, zhao drived. And the kiddy flying thingie. Haha, the kiddie flying thingie was sooo fun. It was like flying in mid air. Hahaz, we were like the only teenagers there , the rest were little children. : P Hazel was like scared at first. But we 3 promised to scream on the ride and scare all the little children off . Hahaz, of course we did. I cud really tell that hazel was really scared cos she kept on babling nonsense and she said that she was trying to cover her fear. Hahaz, very cute.

After the ride, we were all dizzy and it was late so we decided to return to the room for BBQ!!! When we arrived everything was ready and we needed jus to eat. Ate some chicken and some other stuff . Very nice, especially when we're all hungry.  After eatin, i had nothin to do and i saw hazel alone. Tried to find zhao but dunno where he went, so i asked if hazel wanted to go arcade or somethin. Well, it appears that she also din have nothin to do so we went to look around . Initially we wanted to go arcade right? Well, lets see, we saw this shop where u can play X-box so wad the heck. Hazel had tapz card, i got money, so PLAY ON!!! We rented the RETURN OF THE KING GAME!!! Woohooo!! It rox man. More than words can tell. We played multiplayer. At first i was aragorn and hazel was the elf-bapok which many girlz admires...ok fine, his name is legolas. We cud only play one level becos we were stuck at one point of the level so we restarted the level using different characters. I was then Legolas and vice versa. Using legolas rox...i have to admit cos i was able to SHOOT ARROWS!! Cool right!! Well, both of us got fed up after a while cos we din know where to go in the game so we changed game...

It was this fighting game called excalibur something-something. It was like sooo fun lorz. But i wasn't any good at it at first. Hazel kept trashin me...then i found out that the trick of the game was to press the same button over and over again..haiz...still... lost to hazel. But who cares, it was like sooo fun. It was 1 hour well spent.

Went bck to chalet after that to bid goodbye...hehehe, in other words  pack food home lah. Jasmine and Vaness aka AH-SO, was soo nice. They were like "take home this, takne home that" Hehe and i was like "can i take this home, can i take that home" Funny sia.

After packin hazel and i said goodbye and left. She wanted to take bus 88 home so i tagged along . I'm the adventurous type...yeah right. Well we were on the bus and i nearly fell asleep when this episode trailer was on tv mobile, i automatically woke up. Haiz,once a SW fan, always a SW fan. Hazel dropped off somewhere at seranggoon, and i at amk there. Took another bus from there to my doorstep, convenient actually.

Went home and AAAAARGH!!! My modem disconnected!!! I dun know how to fix!!!!! Siallah! My dad cleaned up the room and pulled off all the wires to make way for my new bed. Sheesh! My all-knowing bro also just went off to KL for his skating thingie.

Luckily, today my aunty is leaving for the Netherlands. I can stay at her house and use com...even though its only 56K, at least something right. And yes, i jus bought RETURN OF THE KING sountrack ...1 word guys... BLISS. 

Learned extra steps in the opera play jus now. I just noticed that me and allan is the comic element. Haiz..ppl like us never get to be heroes. But who gives a damn, comic characters are fun to play : ) After that we went to PS to eat. Then there was this guy at BK who works there who has an obsession with cleaning up. To know more abt that read Nadz's blog.

After that went home and slept..... Then woke up to get ready to go to Mrs Kamal's house. Her house was very nice. And we ate mee and nuggets and chicken .. YUMMY!!

But that wasn't the best thing there. Martin , mrs kamal's son is soooooo cute!! Then again, most mixed babies are. He's not afraid of ppl but once in a while he will cry out for his mom...Mommy's boy...kinda like me. He is soo irresistable lor. Wanted to take him home : P His skin is soo soft and i find bliss in playin with him. But all good things come to an end. I had to kiss him goodbye after a while.

I WANT A MIXED BLOOD BABY
