A lil’ bit more than 25. Weee!

February 17, 2009 anarchylikeflower 10 comments

I was tagged by SAKC to do “25 things about yourself” in FaceBook (and she actually tagged 25 FaceBookies in total)…But I decided to go for 50 instead (which you probably would care less about). Reason? Purely SELF-DISCOVERY! *hiccups*. Lmao. It’s purely a general list of things about me as I can get more complicated in real life.

1. Getting my driver’s license is no joke. I got a 16 out of 20 on the driving test (an average score) but had to undergo a re-test (twice mind you) on the hill part and a re-test on the parallel parking. I nearly gave up and I even thought I was destined not to pass!

2. I can get along or cope with anyone if I put my mind to it.

3. My blood type is B+. I just came to know this when I went for a blood donation drive last year (2008). I did my first blood test somewhere in 1999 and the lab told me I was type ‘O”! 9 years believing I’m ‘O’. Luckily my parents are ‘B’ and ‘O’, what would happen if I was suddenly told my blood group is ‘A’??
4. I FIND USING CAPITAL LETTERS AND EXCLAMATION MARKS ANNOYING!!! Lmao.

5. The movie “IT” (the one where there’s a serial killer dressed in a clown suit) scared me as a kid.

6. I have a scar on my forehead (near my hairline) from a fall I had when I was around 9 years old. I find it amusing to purposely roll down the stairs but that particular day made me realized that rolling down the stairs is not a sport. Ouch! (hmm.. that explains why I’m a bit err..krazi?lol)

7. I was involved in parliamentary debates for quite some time.

8. I am allergic to seafood and eggs. I get itchy and swollen all over. I, however, am not fussy about the type of food I eat. It’s the cleanliness that matters.

9. Some kids asked me if I was a virgin or non-virgin when I was 8 (the ones who were asking are also 8 year olds!) I didn’t know what they meant, and refused to respond, guessing that they would make fun of me if I answered. (and I still refuse to answer to this day…lol)

10. Yes to ‘Tomato Ketchup’. No to “Chilli’.

11. I’m fascinated with people who can hold a good conversation with me.

12. Trying as hard as I can, I could not keep a ‘normal’ sleeping schedule. It’s either too early or too late.

13. I prefer dark bitter chocolates. Dark Beryl’s is enough to help me switch into happy mode.

14. I use my hands a lot when I’m talking. Hahahaha.

15. There are things I can write about but not talk about.

16. I would want to be self-employed some day.

17. I proof-read my posts. I’m quite particular with stuff like ‘starting a word in Capital letter after a fullstop’, ‘correct spelling’, ‘inverted comas and exclamation marks in all the right places’ etc. I appreciate it when someone points out a mistake I did.

18. I’m a chronic-worrier. And I know people who have the similar attitude as I do.

19. I reached 63kg back in 2006. Presently, I’m merely 46kg. My BMI’s normal.

20. I hated going to school but I love studying… and never got tired of learning.

21. Although I can be very loud and talkative, I can be exceptionally quiet.

22. People keep telling me that I smile a lot. But…it’s a good thing I guess.

23. I laugh with, and at people a lot. I am probably going to hell for the laughing at people part. It’s obviously not a good thing.

24. I fall asleep very fast when things get really comfortable. He told me so.

25. Sharp tongue. Soft heart.

26. I like to sleep in a cold room with a lot of blankets and pillows, and my feet sticking out to release excess heat.

27. I like to sing when I’m driving.

28. I don’t have a good memory.

29. Vegans fascinate me…living your life without any meat consumption is wickedly…amazing! I tried being a Vegan (trying to follow my big bro’s footsteps) but the temptation was too much to handle. It only lasted for two days.

30. I despise people who have no respect for others.

31. Some people have trouble pronouncing my name. Typical: E-Lihh-Ah-Nor. US/UK pronunciation: Ehh-lerr-nor / Ehh-lehh-ner. Owh well… just call me Len you peeps.

32. I love taking random shots. Things and people are my favourite subjects… they excite me.

33. I like yellow gold better than white. Call me old-fashioned.

34. Colorful things electrify me but black is my all time favourite colour.

35. Mosquitoes love me. But I hate ‘em. Urghhhhhhhhh!

36. I’m a sucker for rock music…but still eclectic.

37. I still don’t understand the need to have a ‘straight-as-fuck’ hairstyle!

38. I get dehydrated very fast. I tend to drink gallons and gallons of water everyday…which explains why I go to the loo quite often…(too much information? Lol).

39. I still have notes/drawings from my kindergarten-days.

40. I firmly believe that everyone have watched porn at least once in their whole lifetime. (owh puhh-lease, just admit it will you!). Well at least IKEA catalogs or DIY stuffs are like porn to me.

41. I love to read! But it comes in waves.

42. I do not know how to cook but I love cleaning and tidying things up.

43. I wonder how Madonna will look when she reaches 70.

44. I had a huge fight with my brother once…and it’s all because of Monopoly (yes…the boardgame!)

45. I heart friends who accept you for just being you.

46. I don’t consider myself a religious person. Uh oh.

47. Pure cheese cakes rocks big time!

48. I want to slow down on smoking (far from quitting but it’s the effort that matters..hahaha..whatever that means).

49. I wish I was emotionally stronger.

50. I do things that make me unhappy if I’m able to make someone else happy.

I’m mad about “mad”.

February 16, 2009 anarchylikeflower 2 comments

Been playing “Mad” by NeYo for like more than 20x today…while driving, while working, while changing and while blogging.  A current addiction.So here goes the lyric (to which I’m currently singing to right this moment..lol)

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh…
Oh oh oh…

[Verse 1]

She’s starin’ at me,
I’m sittin’, wonderin’ what she’s thinkin’.
Mmmmm
Nobody’s talkin’,
‘Cause talkin’ just turns into screamin’.
Ohhh…
And now is I’m yellin’ over her,
She’s yellin’ over me.
All that that means
Is neither of us is listening,
(And what’s even worse).
That we don’t even remember why were fighting.

So both of us are mad for…

[Hook]

Nothin’
(Fighting for).
Nothin’
(Crying for).
Nothin’
(Whoahhh).
But we won’t let it go for
Nothin’
(No not for)
Nothin’.
This should be nothin’ to a love like what we got.
Ohhh, baby…

I know sometimes
It’s gonna rain…
But baby, can we make up now
‘Cause I can’t sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no…

[Verse 2]

And it gets me upset, girl
When you’re constantly accusing.
(Askin’ questions like you’ve already known).
We’re fighting this war, baby
When both of us are losing.
(This ain’t the way that love is supposed to go).

Whoaaaaaaaaa…
[What happened to workin' it out].
We’ve falled into this place
Where you ain’t backin’ down
And I ain’t backin’ down.

So what the hell do we do now…
It’s all for…

[Hook]

Nothin’
(Fighting for).
Nothin’
(Crying for).
Nothin’
(Whoahhh).
But we won’t let it go for
Nothin’
(No not for)
Nothin’.
This should be nothin’ to a love like what we got.
Ohhh, baby…

I know sometimes
It’s gonna rain…
But baby, can we make up now
‘Cause I can’t sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no…

[Bridge]

Oh baby this love ain’t gonna be perfect,
(Perfect, perfect, oh oh).
And just how good it’s gonna be.
We can’t fuss and we can’t fight
Long as everything alright between us
Before we go to sleep.

Baby, we’re gonna be happy.

I know sometimes
It’s gonna rain…
But baby, can we make up now
‘Cause I can’t sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don’t wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don’t want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no…

My one month old baby.

8th February 2009 – My one month old baby boy…My cousin’s actually. LOL. Shot by my 10 year old cousin..that explains why I have a half-head shot. lol.)

It ends with a W!31st January 2009. Hehe. Drove to a friend’s house for a quick check. Left a note at her car “Ui ui ui..eleanor was here. oi budak.. pg mana oh?”.hahahahaha. I panicked that morning but I know she was allright. Lmao.

Sumthin' Different. We were on our way back to Tamparuli when dady spotted sumthin’ different. A motorcyclist carrying his spare tyre by wearing it on his waist. lol. Good idea but looks kinda funny tho.

dsc_1273This shot was taken by Cornn..found it in the same batch as photos from the Retro Night. I wonder when did she took the picture.. possibly when I was driving her home ..Look at the person driving that Ninja. He’s like a lil’ shock..maybe asking himself “what is that girl doing??”

Stop with “I Like..”..Start with “I Hate..”

February 12, 2009 anarchylikeflower 5 comments

Having a series of fluctuating emotions recently..I suddenly had enough of “I like..”.. I have a lot of “I hate..” right this moment. Maybe I’m just having a bad day..worse..a terrible-day. Blame it on my PMS.. I’m one angry chick and I couldn’t figure out why am I so fcuked-up today. Tried to kept myself busy by arranging photos I’ve developed and printed (been lying there for several days..had no time to properly get them organized)  ~ I need to get myself a new photo-alb though. I’ve finally got the guts to burn and throw away the most “valued” (now it’s more like bullshit) photos I’ve been keeping for the last 4 years. Looking at it makes me want to vommit blood. I hate.

Maybe I need some anger management courses. Usually those dainty and lovable chicks will  say something like ” I like..this. I Like…that”. So mua, the furious and infuriated chick will have a list of  “I hate(s)…”

I, Eleanor…

  1. Hate it when I really like somebody but that somebody keeps mentioning about their past relationship..even after I repetitively told that somebody that I’m NOT INTERESTED to know. Maybe ’sharing is caring’? But for this case, I get annoyed. Really really annoyed. Get it??
  2. Hate it when some people tend to judge you when they don’t even know you. Stupid.
  3. Hate it when you try really hard to care for the feelings of others but they totally ignore how you feel. Selfish bastards *hiccup*.
  4. Hate being messy.
  5. Hate it when some people takes sarcasm to a stupid-ignorant level. Ass.
  6. Hate it when I discovered that I ran out of toilet rolls. Ahhhhhhhhhh!
  7. Hate it when I’m stuck in traffic and the driver in the car just beside me starts waving and flirting. Perverts.
  8. Hate it when I thought I’ve snapped a superb-picture but later discovered the camera is set to video mode.
  9. Hate it when you’re two sentences away from finishing up your report and suddenly the computer shuts down. You haven’t saved a thing. Fcukkkk!!!

list will be updated.

Above all those hates…I am actually liking something. Someone.

and I pissed him off as well…”We don’t want anyone or anything ending up in flames..so just let it go.”

Yes. Let it go Eleanor. Let it fcukin go.

Thanks …Cupid.

~ I cried with jealousy. lmao. ~

I was supposed to join Girl and the rest of my hot-buds (Corn, Inden, Derrick, Ben & Yeye) for an outdoor session at Girl’s house in Telipok..but but but something came up..my uncle called to inform that Popo wants us all back in Tamparuli  for an early Chapgohmei family gathering lunch (Feb 8). I was a bit dissapointed though as I was looking forward to join my buddies that day but decided that Popo might not be happy if we didn’t go. Texted Girl to inform “Saya cancialll..tidak dapat datang oh” .I sighed and sighed and sighed. but owh well..there’s always next time.

Mumy was called to do OT and brother already had plans to go somewhere else. So I drove back to Tamparuli with dad sitting at the passenger seat halfway asleep. He woke up midway and started to give me few tips on driving. I was going >90km/ph and dady was repetitively asking me to slow down. There were very few cars on the road..the reason why I stepped on the accelerator a bit more…but slowed down as requested. Dad & I reached around 12pm and stayed on until 5pm. There were a lot of people, and each and everyone of them is my relative (according to infos by aunties and uncles ~ they were telling me how all of us were somehow connected, but being the usual me.. I don’t really remember how ..weak memory, I admit).. 60% of them are those I’m not familiar with; it’s like passing by a stranger during my Gaya Street walk on an early Sunday morning.

I had few drinks and I was sweating like no one’s business. I wasn’t drunk I guess but was damn sleepy. Went up to my cousin’s room to have a rest while texting that somebody.. Owh..I am so going to cut down on my beer intake.

~ Thanks Cupid. I’m gay. (as in happy.)~

Some things just happened..when you least expect it to take place… then it all comes in gradually..the feeling of having butterflies in your stomach, a sudden-beaming face and the irrepressible heartbeats, but minus the sweating palms. It felt good. It felt nice. It felt super-fine. But but but..it seems too good to be true. Everything seems to go so fine, everything falls in place and the future seem so certain. It was all perfectly-secured.

The past was left unrevealed tho. FYI, I don’t even have the slightest intention to know about your past~  I never knew about it before, so why should I fuckin care about it now. It doesn’t make any difference ~ It would just hurt my self-esteem (which I have very little of when it comes to this kind of issues). Tend to compare myself with another, trying to live up to whatever standards that I am not supposed to care about just to make sure everything goes on smoothly..obviously being a fake somebody.

When sentiments and sensations slowly figures out that fragile space it needs to fill,  suspicions and uncertainties kicks in. It’s like having an angel on your right and a devil on your left shoulders – being constant and trustworthy is like impossible..but possible at the same time.

So I stopped at the highway. Specifically..We stopped. and I thanked Cupid. For all the right and wrong reasons.

Suka nya Hati ku ini ~ Lalala.

Date: 1st February 2009, Sunday (It’s February already.. January passed by so fast…)

Objective: Invited by Girl to a small BBQ gathering with the SHELL family.

Venue: Tanjung Lipas.. eh silap.. Tanjung Lipat, Likas. (Try saying “Tanjung Lipat Likas” laju2..Sounds like Tanjung Lipas..kan kan?? Maybe I’m just exxagerating..lol). FYI, It was my first time there since they opened the place to the public. I had some negative impression towards the place before coming there personally..i.e. ugly fugly, a lot of illegal immigrants & dirrrty. Honestly… I admit that.. I was wrong.. it was not that bad after all. It was a lil’ dirty on some part of the beach but maybe those rubbish drifted all the way from Pulau Gaya. The public toilets were well-maintained… supposedly to remain so as they are charging RM30 cents for each entry (same charges as the washrooms you go in at 1Borneo..besides the RM1 VIP toilets of course.Free for Platinums.)

No.of Peeps : Around 20 I guess ~ Including the kids. Wasn’t really counting. The only people I know was Girl & her boyfie Mark Dillon Garcia & Jeremy C. The rest were SHELL staffs who either came with their family, girlfriends or friends. Everyone was friendly and it gave you the feeling of being part of the ‘family’ too and not out of place. Hahaha. So..Hopefully someday they’ll recruit me into SHELL! (angan-angan nih)

Other happenings:

  • The BBQ was more like a big ‘pembakaran terbuka‘ as the fire were going out of control! lol.
  • I had few verbal-arguments with Harry (one of the SHELL staff) on how we should light up the fire, how to barbeque correctly etc (saya eksyen jah kunun2 tau padahal ndak mau kalah jah tu.lmao).. But both ended laughing like krazi.
  • Calling Girl’s boyfriend ‘dear’ made her angry! Sikit dia mau tabak sy guna pisau. Tiba tiba dia sakit jiwa. Luckily I know some Kungfu-ing. Wachaaa! My advice: If you still want to live a bit longer, jangan cuba-cuba panggil boifren orang “dear”, especially boifren si Veralyn Marcie. It’s like digging your own grave.
  • Chicken Wings & Sausages which looked like they were imported from Nigeria / Zimbabwe (no offence to both countries though).
  • It was raining cats and dogs for a lil’ while so everyone stayed under shelter. I saw Girl’s thick Chinese Horoscopes in her bag, took it out (with permission) and started to flip through the pages trying to find The Ox! Jeremy rampas the book and started to cari Pork… Ok basically we now know what’s his year.
  • Mark smiled a lot.  ‘dearrrr’… ehh..oopss.. Sorry! (immediately berlari menyelamatkan diri)
  • I had FUN. I laughed and talked a lot (which both are obviously my greatest-passion in life). Hehe. Thanks Girl for the invite!

Mua, Girl & Mark

(Mua, Girl & her BF ~ Mark)

P/S: Another BBQ coming up next week?

Date: 31st January 2009, Saturday. (The last day of January 2009)

Right after a boring day at work, a few of us went straight to Iris’s house for lunch at Taman Permata. I was already feeling hungry while on my way to her house… We then had a superb lunch and I ate like a pig (still had my manners tho)! The great thing was when Iris took out bottles of Heineken right after we finished. Lol. She magically knew I need beers (just for the record, I ended finishing two small bottles) to compliment the terrific lunch. Having beers in a hot Saturday afternoon screams.. “Ada Kickk!!”. Haha. Then she slowly took out few glasses filled with sweet flavored jellies (couldn’t remember whether it was mango or pineapple, grape or raspberry?) and 3 containers of ice-cream! I had my purple coloured jelly mixed with Paddle-Pop ice cream and poured some fruit cocktails on top. Ta-daaa! It was fab-fab-fabulousity!!

P/s: Iris’s last day at work was on the 30th. We actually bought her a diamond & pearl necklace as her farewell gift.

Heineken + Jelly + Paddle Pop = Grrreat!

Awe-Struck!
