Staple Vids

All time favourite vids of YouTube:

1. Ray William Johnson (keyword: raywilliamjohnson)

One word: hilarious! this guy makes video blogs (vlogs is the term I think) to review other videos that went viral, that is funny+unique+disturbing videos that floats in the web. Check out his latest entry Hump Like Bunnies (I swear the vlog has nothing to do with nature's mating process)

2. Cooking with Francis (keyword: cookingwithdog)

Before you think it's total absurdity for a dog to cook, check out the vids first! Francis is a little toy poodle who talks English with weird accent (yeah, I heard umm.. more unique) introducing Japanese dishes. The cook is a friendly-looking Japanese okasan who is undoubtedly the most hardworking cook in Youtube, or maybe that's just the way of preparing Japanese dishes. The latest vid taught us on how to make Christmas cake, but check this out too because something's bound to be funny at the end of it.

Now everybody can rap

Syamsul Yusoff Haslam's new movie is out! It's unusual for me to be excited for local filming industry, but given he was awarded Best Producer of the Year by Festival Filem Malaysia, so his new installment is worth to talk about. What triggers me posting this entry is because of the soundtrack. He raps in it (?), giving Joe Flizzow a run for his money. On the other hand, it is definitely a good marketing strategy.

Will I set foot in cinema for this? I dunno. I despise horror movie, especially the aftermath of watching them.

More Sugah!

As promised, Ms ID's packages of butter biscuits (I was asleep when she packed them, so no chance for up-close pics). Father was very fascinated by them, he decided to start selling them next week on pasar malam. More workload for me. But it's cool for someone who started heating the oven at 10 am to meet 2 pm deadlines.

So cute~ Gyaaa why she didn't leave extra at home!

Aal Izz Well

Me and Bro Jack sent off Ms ID to bus station today. That means a return trip from home and KL in a day. We did this too often I think he can drive all the way blindfolded.

Mama was watching a Hindi movie halfway when I joined her in front of the TV. It seems that this particular Bollywood movie has somewhat evolved from the staple 'i love you, we looked good dancing together but your evil father/mother/uncle/neighbour will tear us apart' to super good comedy+family drama with positive message. Behold, the name of the movie, '3 Idiots'.

In short, the protagonist, Aamir Khan, along with his three friends struggled through their college years, searching for the meaning of education, family values and following their hearts. Eh, the last three words sound cheesy. Whatever. Very recommended (5 stars bling bling!) for those who are torn between your ambition and your parents' hope. The jokes are cool too. It's hilarious when they have to sandwich an old man having a heart seizure between Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor on a scooter to bring him to the hospital.

I love the movie's quote cum soundtrack too, Aal Izz Well (try saying it a few times and you'll get the meaning).

Hint?*shocked*

~All is Well~

Blissful yet Fatty Day

Last night of New Year was serene around my hometown. Living away from the big city, that's what to be expected. Me, Ms ID and Ms CSI (referred my sisters to their respective ambitions) were attentively watching Japan suspense/sci-fi drama 'Bloody Monday'. We've been through episode 3, so far so good. There were moments where I want to just fall asleep, but the guy casts were so enticing. The mix of Miura Haruma, Satou Takeru and Narimiya Hiroki, I feel like taking the story to dreamland for a kinky remake.

Miura Haruma as Takagi Fujimaru (no weird remarks required)

Ms ID expressed her eagerness to make cookies after visiting Our Best Bites. It looks cool. Hopefully her excitement lasts longer to actually made them. I'll post the pictures if it ever becomes reality.

Now to resume Bloody Monday~

As long as it doesn't kill you

Wow 31st of December! It's already been half day through and I still haven't gone out from the comfort zone of my room and dining table. Still, I'm not the laziest one around, because Fawee is still tucked in bed. We laid three bedsheets on her in an attempt to wake her up, hoping to see her all sweaty and flustered because of the heat. Two hours later, she's still hell-bent on holding her fort.

Lately, my weight shoot up again. Looking back, I started gaining unreasonable extra weights when I was 14. I befriended a very nice person back then, and we often go for recess together. I ate what she ate, same food and portion too. Maybe it was the in-thing to do back then, copying your friends. One thing that never crosses my mind was how fast I started to imitate her large stature. Soon after, I adopted big portion of meals daily.

It's been 9 years since I've been living under the label of 'the fat friend'. So it doesn't come as a surprise that my new year resolution will be 'stop working in food industry'. Temptation here is crazy! or at least, 'shed off 12 kilos, one per month'. Yeah, that sounds decent.

Good luck to you and your new-year resolution/s!

Today's meals are on us, Momoe

Stepping out from the interview room, I feel the sense of emptiness inside. Partly because of the light breakfast, but also because reflecting of how I carried myself during the session, I might have left a negative impression of myself. And I also learned how unfortunate to be the second candidate. You are summoned before you can pick up anything from the first interviewee, and you had to leave without hearing other people's experience.

The 1st 10 minutes was ice-breaking session, since the interviewers said I looked nervous. I rubbed my palms against each other and I wasn't secreting a single sweat. Yeah, my infamous sweaty palms were out of service that morning. I started losing the will to fight after meeting the other six girls who came for the interview. 5 were fresh out of schools and one was an otai (old timer) from private practice. The following 10 minutes was the realization of me+interviewer on my chronic self-esteem issue, and the final 10 minutes was a consoling session of the interviewers that I was selling myself short, and apart from that, I made a hell of a businesswoman (because talking non-stop is my forte?)

I can't bring myself to tell this to Father, Mama, Auntie Nyah, Kak Rini, Kak Ela and Pak Utih. As soon as the restlessness of keeping a secret strikes me, I felt asleep. Since I arrived home at 3 pm today, I slumbered twice. That's why I was so glad Erol came to visit me after the interview. Erol is already a therapist in PPUM, and he rooted for me to get the job. His eagerness won't affect the outcome actually, but having friends' support really matters in some situations. He brought me for a waffle and latte treat, and walked me to bus stop.

Oh man, now I feel troubled letting down all those people who had high hopes in me. Eyes are shutting down too.

Let's pray for everybody's well-being and peace of mind starting now, Tanaka Koki said that to me, through telepathic course.

Momoe signing out to combat delusions!
