Safari Prints=Riss Low Prints!

I was watching Youtube with a friend yesterday about Riss Low and her outrageous comments, which made us laughed like maniacs, it was so hillarious you guys should really check it out.

If you don't know who this Riss Low person is, allow me to elaborate or you could spare 5 minutes to do a little research about her by googling. Trust me, it's worth your itsy bitsy time because after watching the videos, you'll be laughing in your dreams.

Anyway, Riss Low is Miss Singapore 2009 whose title was striped off because of her involvement in some credit card fraud, which is totally irrelevant to what i'm interested in. What is amusing is that she was interviewed a couple of times and her response was "LOL-ly" funny! I kind off admire her honesty and her boldness that she was not ashamed in portraying her true self. As we all already know, pageant girls are extremely fake, but the impression that Riss gave me was that she is kinda real!

However, regardless of how honest a person is, saying "KCCB" in some mainstream channel is extremely inappropriate but that is what made us laughed our heads off! And then there was a part where she mentioned that she is a huge fan of safari prints, and she loves everything from leopard to zebra prints. That sort of reminds me of some of my possessions!

some of my "printed" items

I do love leopard and zebra prints as well, i have a clutch, a scrunchy, and a pair of Crocs in Leopard print (nothing in Zebra motifs yet) but that does not mean we share (Riss and I) similar preferences in style or fashion right? But Riss' videos got so famous that people are correlating her with her favourite prints!

I wore my Crocs malindi leopard today and a couple of my friends with razor-sharp eyesight spotted me with my shoe and complimented me but one of them gave me a comment that i was not very pleased with. This was what happened earlier;

Sha: Hey nice shoes!

Ms: Thanks!

Sha: Ooooo......leopard prints!

Ms: Yup!

Sha: You know what, they reminded me of Riss Low! She loves safari prints too, remember? Leopard, Zebra, all those African animals. You're like her man! You're into animal prints too!

Ms: Heavens, NO! I'm not like her! I'm so not like her!! Please take that back!

Sha: Oh okay, hahaha! Just the prints babe, not the person.

Ms: -_________-""

Come on guys, those who know me in person will definitely know that I AM NOT LIKE HER AT ALL! Especially intellectually because i don't speak in thick British accent in the middle of an interview !! Right? I think i better keep those "printed" stuffs i have away untill the Riss-Print fever subsides. Just in case you see, i don't want another spanking comment coming into my face, like "oh you look like Riss Low in that Leopard clutch/shoe/top/scrunchy"!

Faint.

If Only They Have It Here

Coffee Bean/ Starbucks/ San Francisco Coffee/ Gloria Jeans Coffee, I will consider staying here for my housemanship. Or at least i won't cry and wail if they decide to post me back here for 2 years!

There are multiple coffee shops here but none of them are franchised!! This is so so so not acceptable. I mean our local coffee taste okay, but they are LOCAL! What's the difference if you ask me? Brazilian or Malaysian, they are still coffee beans, right?

WRONG!!

Very very wrong indeeed. It's just like white men and local men, both are men but why do the whites look very much more pleasant as compared to our local selection? Well, that is because they are bigger build, have better features (just like the beans, fatter, plumpier, juicier, handsomer??), and are more fragrant..................I mean the coffee, not the men because i know many of them dislike to shower! Besides, coffee from Starbuck and places like these are processed and fried (the frying part is the most crucial stage of all) with different methods and technology. They have been processing coffee for centuries and therefor has an upper hand on handling and producing better brew.

It's not just about the smell, it's also about texture, the smoothness of liquid that we're sipping. Just like how we'd like our wine or draught. The smoother the better right?
But not here, i've been deprived of luxury coffee for weeks and am merely surviving on Nescaffe!!
Nescaffe is very different, it's like comparing beer to whisky. The percentage of caffeine is just not adequate to give me enough boost in the morning. I can have 10 sachets of Nescaffe and it won't be the same as having a cup of Americano or Espresso!

And whenever i talk about franchise coffee, i talk about ambience too. For me, where you have your daily fix is equally important to what you are drinking. They must be as good, if not better. It's the lighting, and the services, the comfy sofas, the free Wifi and the songs that they play that i am paying for. And as i hand them the money, i want to enjoy where i am, and sip on our cup of today's brew for as long as i could, slowly savoring it as i listen to the tunes that is playing in the shop.

In conclusion, coffee drinking is a form of lifestyle and is also psychologically soothing for me. Whenever i'm in Coffee Bean, i know i don't want to rush out of the shop, i want to open up my novel, listen to some songs, and admire my cup as i sip coffee from it bit by bit. It's called relaxing. And yes, i won't be able to do the same at some "warongs" around here so i have been tense for more than 3 weeks!

I'm going to go into fitting soon, then transform into a walking zombie. Trust me. I miss my "real" coffee so much i'm willing to kill for a cup!!! T___T

My Top 5 Treat List

I ought to be treated to something good but not with my dad's money of course. I mean, whenever i want something, or need something, my requests goes to dad because no one else in this world is able or willing to splurge on me except for my dear old dad. And yes, mind you, he is already AGING! At his age, he should have had retired but continues to work because his eldest daughter happen to be still studying and has 1 and a half years more to go before graduating!!! SIGH!!

At times i wish that people (not daddy) would just fulfill my desires or sponsor me on certain things i need because i've been a good girl all year round. If only Santa really exist, not some huge beer belly ugly man who wears a red costume every year and pretends to go hohoho Merry Christmas but thinks otherwise "curse you little devils for requesting for the entire universe"..... Anyway, what i really need/want right now is .................

5) An awesome escapade to anywhere in this world alone, but preferably with a responsible body guard. He is a "must-bring-along" partner to protect me from dangers and besides, i don't want to be talking to monuments or scenaries anymore if i were to go on a vacation right? I want someone to share my fascination with. I have'nt been going out of this country for quite some time, i'm constantly surounded by the beach and the sea that i almost gag when i see them. I'm so bored of islands, at least for now so i need to indulge myself in places devoid of beaches!

4) A new man. Not like i'm desperate for a boyfriend , i just want someone new to be occupied with. Oh, but the "man" should be by all means pleasant. Not just someone with a cute face, but comes in a complete package like having abs so wonderful, and gluteus so tight, thighs so strong, biceps and triceps in adequate size, smile so charming that his teeth blings you to death, voice so masculine, tall hunky and with broad shoulders, so smart and independent, and successful, you know? That kind of companion that will wow your socks off. Even if it's not working out between the both of us, hanging out with him is like getting a trophy already.

3) A new handphone. It's not that i don't love my current Nokia, it has served me loyally for almost 4 years, eventhough chronically ill, it is still trying its best to play me songs, send me text messages and let me call my mom for our ritual chat. BUT!!! Due to its condition and because it has sustained so many injuries from various fall throughout the years, it often dies on me, run low on battery, the camera malfunction producing blurry pictures. It is giving me little signs and symptoms here and there of hardware failure and sooner or later, i know it's going to die! I tried delaying its aging by beautifying it with stones but that is also temporary because the stones are falling off day by day.

missing stones........................

missing paint.........................

rusty keypad.....................

No plastic surgery or botox is going to help anyone when they are 90 years old right? The same theory applies to my phone, guess i'll need to get a new one, soon!

2) DREAMLESS nights please please please! I really need this desperately. I have been dreaming of a certain something/someone/somewhere for months! For God's sake! If i'm having visions of numbers during my sleep, it won't be as bad as getting vivid visuals of people i'm dying to kill! At least when i wake up, the first thing i know i'm going to do is call my mom and tell her about my numbers! Who knows i might get a little lucky in winning the lottery. It's very disturbing waking up to a beautiful morning but having stupid dreams stucked in my head and scenes playing themselves over and over again throughout the day. It's as if i've not slept at all.

But most importantly, the one thing that i MUST HAVE RIGHT NOW is........................

1) A Dell Inspiron 13 !!!!!!!! I kinda want this very very very very extremely badly, not because i'm greedy or because they are available in so many pastel colours, it's really because the laptop i am using now is basically living its life like a comatosed patient depending on a mechanical ventillator. You might think that i am exaggerating about the condition of my lappie. Well let me assure you that i am not kidding when i said my lappie's screwed. First and foremost, my laptop's speaker is down, so whenever my friends send me Youtube videos, i have to reject them saying that i can't hear anything unless the whole video is nothing but actions.

Besides, my lappie's battery is also down and is dependant on my power cable to stay alive, enabling me to type this looooooong post. Thank you Lappie.

just look at this, a laptop without its battery is like a woman without her breast..

Regarding the power cable, something is very wrong with it that i have to fold it tightly and tie it with a rubber band and also tape it around with some cellophane tape to secure it even more so that my lappie could get its power supply. Some parts of it must have loosen but i don't know which. So there you go, a bandaged cable supplying electricity to a battery-less laptop.

kesian......................

Moreover, my lappie has some serious scratch because i accidentally pushed it and it droped on the ground, having 2 permanent deep scars, which explains why i've gotten it a new skin. I don't really like this free Nuffnang skin but just for the sake of camouflaging its multiple flaws. SIGH SIGH SIGH! Each and everyday i pray to GOD or to whoever's up there to keep my lappie alive, at least for 1 and a half years more before dying permanently. I can't afford another lappie before i start getting my very own first paycheck. At the same time, I have too many pretty pictures, scandals, secrets, songs i hide in my laptop, i can't afford to loose them all.


Now if only DELL is generous enough, perhaps they could consider rewarding me with a new unscratched pretty colourful laptop with a battery, functioning speakers, and a good power cable so that i'll be more motivated to work on my presentations, do my case write ups, watch Youtube (exception) , and blog more often? Come on, i've been a really really good person and i bet if the real Santa exist, he will definitely drop a huge box down my chimney next month!

*Fingers crossed*
*Pray hard hard*

Moi A Stuuuuuuuuuder

What the hell is that? If you are wondering, that word's no vulgar, not this time though. I bought a few packets of studs and thus am studding everything in my room. that is why i call myself a studder, hehe!

Anyway, i got these back in KL for 5 bucks per packet, and my my, i must say that these little things are SHARP! They can even pierce into my thick canvas shoes! I am definitely very very impressed with my 5 bucks only DIY baby metals !


They are like staples, just punch them onto anything and they will stick to your tops, shoes and bags for good. When you punch these onto something, it's like their little fangs pierce into softer materials and permanently clenched tightly together to create a strong grip.

Anyway, I have a sash with me that comes together with a top that i bought quite some time ago and i was about to throw it into the dustbin when i realized that i could actually make good use of it instead of feeding it to the trash can. So i stud it up and made it look less.........black?? Haha, i simply blinged it up, that was all i did.


And then i discovered that this "so-boring-turned-versatile" sash can multifunction just because i've added a little ornament onto it. It could be used as a belt, but it does not compliment all kinds of attire. However, i found myself a boring blue dress that matches my "old-cum-new" sash perfectly! What do you guys think?


While playing around with it (i was trying to tie my hair with this sash but it was a little too thick to serve as a scrunchy) , it accidentally fell on my neck and looked like a necklace now. So i thought "hey, why not?". It looked kinda pretty in my opinion.


Focus on the neck please, and not some other places okay? On further experimentation, my sash can even be used as a hairband! Or a head band, it depends on how you style your hair, i prefer to use it to band my hair. Just like this.

See! Easy right? Most importantly, it is cheap and so damn easy to make . It's not even time consuming. How many hours do you think you need to just punch those studs on a piece of cloth? it's not like you're digging for diamonds or anything like that. All you need are flexible functioning fingers, good eyesight, ribbons, and a tiny weeny bit of patience. If you don't have that many unwanted junk as i do, go buy some thick ribbons, you can start studding away. If you like, you can even stud yourself, who knows what fetishes some of us have? Studding is fun, seriously!

Dying Soon.......

Not me not me!

I mean my blog!

What a pity, i've lost my blogging mojo. Nothing seems to excite me these days, i'm not even irritated enough to blog about some low life, i just don't think they worth my time anymore.

Something is wrong somewhere, I thought i could at least blog about how horrible my dinner was that my puke might even taste better but no, i did not. I did'nt feel that it was necessary or interesting enough or have any drive to write about it. I don't bother criticizing anyone nor anything anymore. I feel so...................bland????

Yesterday, some Malay dudes were whistling at me all the time as i jog around the park and I was not even annoyed/ angry/ disgusted/ irritated/ pissed??? Instead, i told myself this, "oh well, whatever".Now this is weird, very very weird.

I don't feel like me!

I Need/ I Want

A travel companion.

Preferably a guy who is gay but with looks that kill so that if ever any of my vacation turns out to be horribly awful, ogglling at him is enough to compensate for ugly scenaries. Which, i highly doubt will happen because tourist spots are usually famous for their beautiful landscapes.

The reason to why they should be gay is because i'm female, and travelling with ONE male only is actually quite risky. What if they fall in love with me? And then decides to plot something nasty on me because i am inevitably lovable and charming and gorgeous and etc.......you know (AHEM!) ?
So, if they are kinked (not straight), i am at least safe from all these harrasments you see.

However, i think a travel companion should never be too handsome. They could either be Ryan Raynaulds look alike, Hugh Jackman, or Adam Levine but never a combination of all three. Imagine having someone as cute, gorgeous, hot, sexy beside you all the time, what will you be doing? Taking pictures of trees, animals and buildings? I'll be taking pictures of "him" every minute! Besides, if my travel companion is too hot, i might be the one having nasty ideas on him and not vice versa.

I just thought i needed one because i love to travel around so much, but most of the time, I'm doing that alone because i don't have many friends who share the same passion, and even if they do, there are too many reasons that halt certain plans. It's not that i don't enjoy my holidays if i were to go alone, it's my safety that i am concern of. If only i am a guy, i would'nt mind going to the Antarctic alone making new friends with whales or sea lions. There are so few, almost none-existant, female perverts/ rapists out there that gives guys an upper hand in going to places alone.

How cool is it to actualy have someone to watch your back and you keep an eye on his when you're going to places so congested. And the both of you are actually free to befriends whoever because there are no commitments and of course, both are not emotionally involved. It would be awesome to have a surrogate with me, like a humanoid machine to travel around with. Are there any travel companions for sale out there that i am unaware of? I seriously would not mind investing in one!

Today's Mood

Oh God....................................

I feel like shit.

But apart from feeling like crap, i've learned something. And that is to never ever do that again. Nothing will be good if in excess, moderation is the key to life!

And because of this incident, i've also learned that i am actually surrounded by many awesome people! Thank you Ambi, Priya, Alli, BS, for dragging me around (i know i'm such a big fat clumsy log) and cleaning up my mess. I AM SO SO SO SO SORRY that i've troubled you good humans! I deserve a big tight slap but of course, everyone deserve forgiveness if it's their first time, and this is indeed my first!

History shall never repeat itself, because according to Ambi, if that ever happen again, she's going to kick me in the ass. I don't want no asses to be kicked!

Okay, i need more sleep. Nights..........
