Zestful One

Of books, coffee & makeup

After feeling pretty messed up for the past few days – coupled with lack of sleep – that i decided to go to Midvalley alone. However, when i got to the LRT station, my parents were there to pick me up. Then my sisters wanted to follow too *groan*

So i told em to split up, coz i knew they wanted to go window shop. And i headed off to MPH to get “Angels & Demons” by Dan Brown (yeap, the same guy who wrote The Da Vinci Code) then sat in Coffee Bean, drinking Ultimate Ice blended & eating chocolate swirl cheesecake while reading my new book. Sat there for almost 2 hrs, den met up wif my sis again before going for dinner at Nandos (yes, again!! :P)

Oh yeah, somehow, i still managed to spend RM130 yesterday.
Nail polish = 13.90 – the only one i have…
Book = 34.90
Toiletries = 13.00
Xmas cards = 8.00
Coffee Bean = 18.00
Makeup = 41.00 – BodyShop concealer & sharpener
GRAND TOTAL = 128.80

Well, i only go out like once a month, so i guess that’s understandable. LOL! The last time i went to midvalley was last month….or the month before that I think. And i juz bought a RM20 watch.

I guess there goes half of Dec’s allowance. I get RM250 a month…..and i buy my own lunch & breakfast in sch….and im saving up money to buy a plane ticket to Bintulu & Miri to see friends.

I had a presentation this morning…which caused me to have lack of sleep for hte last 2 days…but it was all WORTH IT. My lecturer said it was good and very clear, so much so that she asked the rest to be as good or better. Banggala! Coz i practically did all the slides & presented the whole thing (as usual, some of my groupmates are pretty useless)

Im going to register for the Planetshakers conference tomolo. Weird that someone like me is goin for a Christian conference….

Jeremy’s coming. Soo happy!! I really need to talk to him…miss him so much…

Ghetto Heaven @ Zouk KL

Thursdays nights are Ghetto Heaven nights at Zouk KL. And also ladies night. Meaning to say there are no entrance fee for ladies and they play R&B songs all night.

On Thurs, i slept over at a few friends’ place coz we planned to go to Zouk. Went there in the afternoon and lepak lepak around. Den around 9 sumthing we got ready (supposed to leave at 10.30pm). Sempat curl my hair. LOL! :P Took a taxi thr and reached just before midnite eventually (we left late) and went it.

My first impression is that it’s smoky. I mean I kno clubs are full of smoke but this was kinda overdosed. I walked in and i was hit by a cloud of smoke & my eyes started watering…but after a while i adjusted and all was fine. Then i realized that it was SO packed {but i’ve been in worst clubs – kenot even walk around at that point} and no space to sit around.

Music was good, lotsa ppl…but not enough guys…ehhe…so tak sempat bercuci mata dat nite :( Hehe! Nvm la…..

Oh yeah….alcohol in KL is expensive!! Drank 1 cup of chivas (wif juz ice)…..RM21.50!!…..in Miri only RM13-16 {if im not mistaken – correct or not Littak?}. Hmm…..cant afford to drink here i guess, unless some ppl buys me drinks. LOL!

Oh yeah 2 guys bought a fren & I Johnnie walker+coke (they open 2 bottles owedi). She didnt drink, so i took both den we thanked them and went off. They’re too old la….d*mn! prolly juz slightly younger than my father. So we cabut away from em fast fast. LOL!!

So we berabis dance till like 3 am…wuah so tiring. {Lola: bena cakap ko, lepas lama dah cuti, sik larat gik mok tahan lama-lama} …..yeahla wat to do kan? Den while we were hanging outside waitin for a taxi, we met some guys from Sunway and talk talk abit lorr….

One of our frens was so talkative in the taxi, commenting that the taxi driver is very young la, ask his age (he’s 29) den she gave him a mini motivational talk, saying he got so much potential and why is he driving taxis when he has a whole bright future…blah blah….poor taxi driver. LOL!

Got back at around 4 am, only slept around 6-7 am. Woke up at 10 am coz i was supposed to go back at noon. So tired!!

Ok, i got pics, but my frens dont want their faces to be seen in public…so all also covered with Question Marks ehehhe

Me & a friend before makeup/hairdo :P {My green eyes obvious kan? kan?}

In the taxi on the way {yeahla, i dont have my own transport yet}

Outside Zouk with another friend.

.: Review : The Forgotten :.

I downloaded the movie The Forgotten from Suprnova using bittorrent. Took me about 2 days coz i couldnt leave my pc on 24/7. Anyway, it’s coming out today in Malaysian cinemas but I watched it a week ago. Ahh..the wonders of the internet. LOL!! So here’s a short review.

Online Review
In this sci-fi thriller, Julianne Moore plays Telly Paretta, a distraught woman who could not believe that her nine year old son, Sam had died in a plane crash 14 months ago. Telly Paretta could not accept the explanation given by her husband Jim (Anthony Edwards) and her psychiatrist, Dr. Munce (Gary Sinise) that her son did not exist. Their plain, simple answer was that she suffered a miscarriage and she had been delusional since then and had been fabricating memories of her imaginary son. They explained that she was suffering from amenesia brought on by post-traumatic stress.

Unsatisfied with the explanation, Telly Paretta began looking for evidence of Sam’s existence. She searched for photos, videos and scrapbooks. However much to her astonishment, everything had vanished. She was going mad and hysterical until she met Ash Correll (Dominic West), a retired hockey player who lost his daughter, Lauren in the same plane crash.

However, Ash did not remember his daughter and she had to make him remember. To add to their confusion, some people are after them even though they have no idea why.

So are they 2 mad lunatics or did they really have a son and a daughter?

My Review
I found this movie interesting with its twists and turns. Julienne Moore portrays the emotion & love between mother & child very well. A little bit boring at times. Suspenceful (sp?) at certain parts but I really found the ending lame. And, to me, a lame ending pulls the whole rating of the show down.

My verdict: Pretty ok movie…mayb give it a 5.5 out of 10. Should be interesting for sci-fi buffs tho :P
