spring?

say bye bye to winter and hello spring! :) gosh i am so excited about this season change, finally no more white endless white blankets and freckles, i want the greens and the colours!

today was one of the rare days that we have experiences so far, the weather was awesome, 2 degrees with a full blaze sun. we can actually feel the heat! we were like a bunch of lunatics, standing under the sunlight with arms spread wide open, and the mouths open wide saying 'ahhhhhhhhhhhh...', with our eyes closed. -_______________-'''

we just had Histology class today and we had exam. it was total mcq and only 12 questions, praise the Lord! :D most of us got 5/5 and i am one of them! yessssssss! anyway Physics exam is coming soon so there's nothing to be happy about. :(

just came back from yet another awesome dinner. this time we went to a Chinese restaurant at downtown Moscow. it has been like 4 months since i last ate a proper Chinese dinner, and it was gooooooooooood! :D this dinner was for our lovely Ms. Angeline's birthday, decided to celebrate there. btw, a big 'Happy Birthday!' to her.

so far life has been pretty fair to me. everything is going smooth and nice and smooth and nice. sometimes it can be as boring as hell but what to do. sighhhhh..

anyways, season's changing and that means, wardrobe changing! gotta get myself a trenchcoat soon and a pair of boots, if thats fine for my parents back home. hehe :)

# burberry's trenchcoats just spells awesome!

from Russia, with love

season's changing,

its time for a new phase,

but my heart's staying,

at where it was being placed.

i am still waiting

for you to get me out of this maze..

since you said i never miss you :(

my parents are backkkkkk! :D the Hong Kong trip was great for them, i cant believe that my parents can still walk for HOURS even though they are now in their fifties. O.O

i know my mom, she's a real traveler, all she needs for travelling, is a really good pair of walking shoes, some cash, a devoted husband (muh dad) and a to-and-from air ticket, and POOF there she goes. tapi i memang kesian my dad lor, he told me that they both have been walking for 12 hours, 12 freaking HOURS, nearly non-stop..

and i was like :'' mom, can you please stop torturing daddy?'' LOL ;D

my mom's a special person, you can never, i repeat, NEVER find anyone like her. lemme jot down her specialties :

• first of all, she's loud. as in LOUD.
• then, she laughs louder than she talks. even her friends say so.
• she hates makeups. her facial flaws are the ones that make her beautiful.
• she hates jeweleries. nothing shines brighter than her smile.
• her smile. can instantly brighten up a room.
• her jovial-ness. as crazy as i am.
• her husband, who has been through thick and thin with her, and made her the happiest woman 20 years ago until now, and still counting..
• her personality. how can anyone hate her?
• her determinations. except for her body weight, everything else is fine.
• and last but not least, her heart. as innocent and pure as a newborn.

because she doesn't even know what are the followings :

- wtf

- wth

- btw

- pfft

- lol

- etc etc etc...

- LOL right? i'm like ''omg mom we're at the 21st century, not the 19th!'' -.-''

she's the reason i am here

she's the one that made everything happen

she's the greatest

she's my mom

and i love her, with all my heart

CNY.

and so, my first Chinese New Year overseas. no angpaus, no red wrappers, no lion dance, no open house hunting, no kuih-kuih to makan, no explosive stuffs, no cny songs bombing at every corner of the town, no nothing..

but thank God, the cny dinner saved my life :)

# muh masterpiece, tadaaaaaaaa! :)

[corn + carrot + oyster mushroom soup]

# drooling-much? HAHA :D

another awesome + orgasmic dinner from the folks of 4th floor at Pushkin Institute of Russian Language a.k.a my hostel. :) but still, i miss my grandma's cooking back home, sighhh :(

then, for cny's and we-are-teenagers's sake, gambling! no pictures were taken but the drama was to-die-for! everyone was so engrossed and unbelievably devoted to the card game. your's truly was NEVER good at gambling, but i REALLY enjoyed myself to the maaaaaaaxxx!

p/s : poker ROCKS! damn awesome! :D

# p/s : they rock!

p/s : you rock too!

V-day

St.Valentine's day. day of love, day of where women gets appreciated in a relationship. if a couple is truly in love, Valentine's day is just a number, because to them, everyday is a Valentine's.

people say..

all the time, but sometimes you wonder, do they really mean it? no matter in between couples or between friends. yet, it is a powerful sentence that requires skills, patiences, intelligence, and most importantly, courage. how ironic..

personally, randomness is more sincere. like..

1. giving her a bunch of roses on a random date besides Valentine's

2. prepare a candle-light dinner for her on a random night

3. giving her a hug from behind at any random times (women loves this) :]

4. saying a sincere ' I Love You' to her at any random moments..

could drive her crazily in love with you..

from Russia, with love,

-stillatstake-

like how i used to be,

when i was naive..

God please save me from malls with sales on!

epic failure la aku ni! kata nak jimat duit but when ternampak perkataan 'WINTER CLEAREANCE', or '50% - 70% discount', dah tak boleh tahan dah, aduhhhh.. *major shake heads*

and so, bought these babies out of resistance towards the great temptation of winter sales. -____-''

# Zara's

ok lemme explain the outrageous brand-consciousness, these two, before sales was a total of 5000 rubles, thats around RM480-500. and after sale, they cost around 1600 rubles. AWESOME right? :D

# the mall where everything went downhill -____-

# a huge ass fountain clock, niceeeeee :)

i shall vow now, after the festive's season's, i shall be back to my old self, the thrifty and money-conscious me. i shall and i will. *cross fingers*

btw, today's new year's eve. my people cooked and brought food for me, damn niceeee right? hearts them. :)

so as for cny, i will have one new t-shirt, one new pants and two pairs of shoes. satisfied! *exhales with smile on face* but no angpao!! sadddddd :(

lagi sad thing is, 2 years, 2 years not being able to celebrate CNY with my family, SIGHHH! fated lah, birthday and CNY. eff faith! :(

and now my parents dumped me and went to Hong Kong to enjoy themselves, noh fair!

- as conclusion, my life is pathetic it sucks i hate it thank you bye bye.

i cant even believe it..

Daughtry - Life After You

"Life After You"

Ten miles from town and I just broke down

Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road

I'm out here alone just tryin' to get home

To tell you I was wrong but you already know

Believe me I won't stop at nothin'

To see you so I've started runnin'

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after

After the life we've been through

'Cause I know there's no life after you

Last time we talked, the night that I walked

Burns like an iron in the back of my mind

I must've been high to say you and I

Weren't meant to be and just wasting my time

Oh, why did I ever doubt you?

You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after

After the life we've been through

'Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one

After this time I spent alone

It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind

Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind

So I'm runnin' back to tell you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter

Without you God knows what I'd do

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after

After the life we've been through

'Cause I know there's no life after you

'all that i am after

is a life full of laughter

as long as i am laughing with you'

will i ever have the chance,

to even see you,

smile at me?

more to come -.-

so, the 3rd day of the new sem. so far so good, everything was expected. and a HUGE thanks shoutout to Mr. Hari Krishnan aka muh roommate for that really REALLY awesome chicken dinner. we were supposed, ( with the -d letter at the end ) to be on diet together, but who cares.. pfft. ;b

good news : lecturers changed for some classes for the better, yessssss!

bad news : sem 2 is gonna kill us soon because its so freaking hectic! 10 times worst then last sem i swear! -__________-'''

now, we will only reach our hostel when the sun goes down, you can say i am weird but to be honest, i kinda like that. not the study from morning 9am till 5pm part, but the walking back in darkness part. hehe :p

for the new timetable, we will have to switch places constantly to attend different classes, everyday. and the distance between the class buildings is definitely NOT a stone's throw away, we have to take trips on buses and metros to reach our destination. and today, during the period when we interchange class buildings to another building for another class, it was snowing. not to say it was unusual but today's snow was really pleasant. it was soft and slow and the snow flakes were small. it looks exactly like the fake snow inside any glass ball.

and there we were, walking and chit-chatting and the snow was falling down, and all of a sudden, i miss home, and out of nowhere, these 2 pictures came to my mind :

how i wish you were here, so that we can make snowmans and snowwomans and snowbabies together ; how i wish you were here, so that i can throw snowballs at all of you ; how i wish you were here, so that i can actually enjoy the awesome snow view with you ; how i wish you were here, so that ............. everything could be better ........

# its all i wanna say

from Russia with love,

-stillatstake-

i am comfortable,

for who i am,

underneath my very own skin..

help!!

goodbye freedom and hello hell. -.-''

ya you got it right, your's truly's sem 2 is starting, when? ermmmm lemme think.. freaking TOMORROW! sighhhhh..

and the best part is, i have not prepared anything yet to 'welcome' the new sem. our timetable is enough to kill us all. -

- 4 hours of physics -

- histology -

- Latin -

* screams and faints *

sighhhh.. procrastinating isn't gonna help much. lets just hope that things will be back to normal.

in order to welcome the fresh start, me and my roommates decided to re-decorate our room, which was in a really huge mess before this. so here is what we've done -

# tadaaaaaaaaaa, muh bed! neat right? :)

# me and Hari's shelf *proud*

totally forgotton to take the before and after picture, damn! but lemme paint you a picture, before this, the room was LITERALLY coated by dust and cockroaches were climbing on the wall, btw, russian cockroaches are smaller compared to malaysian ones. and now, the floor is spic and span, and the room just screams AWESOME! me loving it. :)

just had a great pre-hell dinner, i must say, the peeps of 4th floor are really good chefs and i am grateful to have them as neighbors and roommates. thank you :)

# maybe it wont be that bad, right?

from Russia, with love,

-stillatstake-

i need help,

would you be there?

game over

3 weeks, 3 weeks of doing-nothing-ness just passed by as if a speed car just drove by. good times always passes faster, noh fair! :(

and so, winter break is gonna be over in 2 days time, so far things have been pretty smooth, bumps are definitely inevitable. who cares neways? i have to say my winter break was a good one, not great but satisfied, because i have a bunch of great peeps to spend with. :)

1. first of all, my belated birthday dinner : -

# the epic bak kut teh dinner! yuuummmsss.. ;D *major drooling*

# master of chaos :p

# smilesss :)

2. the Thinesh's birthday ( roomate no.3 )

# giant serving of rice for 13 peeps

# what?? yes we are big eaters, as if you're not, btw the food just screams AWESOME! :D

well, we were too busy eating after that so pictures were ignored. then later birthday boy got bathed by different alcohols and drinks, he smelled like a drunk guy who just pissed on himself, LOL ;b.. as usual, the cake was tastyyyy and all of us stayed up till the wee hours :)

3. the chicken rice dinner :)

just some random awesome dinner!

# thanks to the peeps of 4th floor, this dinner was pure orgasmic! :D

4. clubbing 101

we went to 2 clubs, the first one was named 'Propaganda'. it was the so-called In club in Moscow. the dance floor is always filled with people, then because it was too full, we changed to another club and it was called 'Solianka'. that one was quite and it was so relaxing. we chit chatted and drank and chilled until the morning.. ahhhh

# jam packed with cigarette filled air, my hair and clothes smelled like as if i've been smoking for the past 10 years when i got out from here -________-

# DJ of the night, theme : hip hop techno

# drink of the night : epic red bull vodka, yummmssss :)

# not much pics coz pictures were not allowed, i know, wtf right? -______- '''

# and, tadaaaaa couple of the night! :p

i still cant believe that 3 weeks, 21 days just passed by me. the enthusiasism and excitement are still so fresh in my mind, and now its over. sighhhhhh.. :(

but all in all, i enjoyed my first winter break.

from Russia, with love

-stillatstake-

another round of hell is gonna start soon,

and i really, really,

need you, to survive..
