Pada suatu hari, satu hari yang agak damai juga lah. Saya berada di 'kedai kopi' biasa.... borak borak kosong katanya. Maka arakian muncul lah seseorang yang tak dikenali, masuk ke opis saya. Terus berborak la saya dengan PYTD (Peng Yang Tak Dikenali) itu.....
PYTD: Hi
K04: Hi
PYTD: I dah ada apa yang you mintak haritu, Tolong lah terima i.
K04: Heh? I mintak apa? U sapa?
PYTD: u jangan la buat-buat lupa i. haritu u mintak 5c. Ingat tak?
K04: Heh? 5c tu apa?
PYTD: kan haritu u bgtau kat pablik. u nak 5 c - cash, car, condo, credit card, career
K04: Heh????? u salah orang kot? u sapa?
PYTD: I dah ada car & cash. Yang lain-lain tu i sedang usahakan. Tolong la terima i.
K04: Heh?????????? tak pernah dalam seumur hidup i mintak tu semua!!! u salah orang ni!
PYTD: tak pe lah kalau u dah tak ingat i. i takkan ganggu u lagi.
K04: ok.
tu dia dek non. 5C katanya. I had NO idea what it was, much less ask for it in PUBLIC??? Please lah. If i had ever asked all that, and actually got it, u wont see me in the room anymore. I'd be too busy counting my c's.....

teenage dream - meg cabot
i like reading. it transports me to another world, another time, another place.
Some weeks ago, i was hell bent on reading Patricia Cornwell. I got started on the Kay Scarpetta series, up to maybe the 10th book? Takes a bit of thinking. and kinda dark and morbid.
One day i decided that i just wanted some light reading. you know the kind you read while having coffee and snacks, or just to while the time away.
So for no apparent reason (perhaps because the books were available) i started reading The Princess Diaries.
Light, witty. But let meee telll youuuuuu.... that Mia is sooo irritating. The Mia in the movies was a klutz, looks awful in the beginning until the transformation and what have yous. But she was endearing. So was the Grandmother. Even Lilly has got some redeeming qualities. But in the book? Owh. Mah. Gawd. I felt like slapping her, and slapping her good.
I read six of the books, and she didn't even grow up all that much.SIX books and she only went from 14 to 15. AND an irritating 15-yr old plak tu. Esh. AND the Grandmother is sooo NOT Julie Andrews in the book ok? More like Cruella De-ville if you ask me.
Lilly? Please let me never KNOW a person like her.
Apparently there are 4 more books that i don't have. I'm not even sure i want to look for the other four.
So much for light reading la kan?
How to quit smoking like this???
However, I've now started reading the Mediator series, also by Meg Cabot.
This one actually looks more promising. The girl, Susannah, is a bit more feisty. I like feisty. But i've only started the first book. It's a bout a 16-yr old who can communicate with ghosts. Macam Ghost Whisperer la ni kot. Tapi with attitude. A better read one hopes.
One can hope kan?

the angst of a novice blogger
now that i've actually GOT a blog.. what do i write in it?
the meanderings of a broken heart? naah. too soppy.
the ins and outs of my thoughts? too cerebral. ok, perhaps too banal is a better description.
the ins and outs of my life? nothing much to speak of, really. same ol' same ol'.
but here are some of what i thought i would write, should inspiration strikes (in this century, one would hope).
1. if you were to walk from that International School (what was it, Fairview?) along Jalan Ampang to the nearest LRT, which would you choose? Dato' Keramat or Jelatek? - I thought up of this brilliant idea while actually deciding which LRT station to walk to.
2. my (thus far flailing and failing) efforts to at least, reduce smoking if not quit completely. This would probably take up one or two lines, as the conclusion remains the same. I can't bloody do it at the moment.
3. PMM stuff - reviews, patterns etc etc. Please lah. tolong lah jangan. Sooooooooooooo makcik ok.
4. Book reviews - I will NOT have anything intelligent to say. Bitchy perhaps. But hey, in some circles, that *would* constitute as intellingentsia.
5. Food. I'd need a separate blog just for that alone (wah, satu blog pun lom ada entry yang vogue der vass, berangan nak blog lain???)
6. A list of what i would blog about. hey, i'm doing this *now* . CHECK!
I think i'll go and have a cigarette and ponder some more. With a mug of coffee.
Coffee count so far: 1 (and 1 more coming up)
