Rain In Qatar?

ok this is sooo ironic.

raining during the summer IN THE MIDDLE EAST?!!

yes guys, Qatar rained for 20 mins at arnd 9:05 to 9:25 this morning.

i was swimming for PE... first, i thought it was gonna be a sandstorm since the day is gloomy and all... but the lightning strikes and thunder too!!!! omg.then it started drizzling. i just couldnt believe it. unfortunately, not all of the girls swam today, sooo shame for them, they din swim under the rain like we did!

fun fun. i got scared in the end because im scared that the lightning strikes me. u never know what happens right..who knows my swim suit is an electric conductor. * u never know (A) *

finally, i handed in my Film Coursework. thank god. 2 done, 1 to go. Album Cover. pah ill figure a way to do it... ill manage as for now, i have to catch up with my revision. Biology,Chemistry and Physics. no time to waste.

i went for my first ballet class. oh god, im so jealous of Atika for not having to be experiencing the pain of doing splits.

its soo painful. all i can do during the ballet class was the skipping thingy, the hand thingy and the legs thingy. - i forgot the terms-

i need to check on eBay for Ballet shoes. coz Ballet shoes are expensive and im not sure if i love doing ballet or not. my reason for doing ballet is to have ubber good body posture and to be flexible. the dancing bit is a bonus.

so we were taught on how to bow, and the 5 steps of ballet. hard bit was the splits part. ouchhhiesss.

yesterday, i went to CityCentre with my mum. there werent much ppl there, not bad not bad. so lesson learned: only go to CC during weekdays. i got myself tights and a top. wooohooo. =)

i think im going home on the 19th July. however, i will not be staying in Miri for long. i think ill be there for a week. lol.. so i have to choose a date to visit miri. but yea whatever. as long as i go back to Miri, im super duper fine.

im sickkkk.... sigh the flu hasnt got any better, infact my voice sounds weird, says Rahmi.

oh my gosh. its soo funny today. well, i asked Bilal for Halls after break.. so he gave it to me.. but he didnt give Rahmi. sooo rahmi was like saying "bilal's so hot bilal's so nice" sweet talking u call it. Bilal still didnt wanna give her any, he gave his friends the sweet instead. then Rahmi got pissed she took Bilal's planner and Bilal took hers.

the next lesson was Maths. hahahah and thats when the boys discovered the Rahmi's "time of the month" dates at the back of the planner... coz yeah she needs to have them signed by her mum for swimming.

they kept teasing her and like asking her if she has it now. damnn that must be embarassing, but she said she doesnt mind. so thats why im typing it here. hehehe lets just hope she doesnt reads this OR ELSE, IM DEAD, well sorta.

to reg: reg.. i can smell my socks. it smells nicer than his. so next time let me sit at ur place *cries* - hahah random i think i was just thinkng of myself being in Locchead's class sitting near Mr Smelly Feet.

oh my gosh Summerland is getting better day by day. dammit. i even start falling in love with Zac Efron. i thought i swore that i will never say that hes hot. somehow, he is!!

1 more episode till Season Finale. ok then guys i better go. dad bought some goodies. =)

Wentworth Miller vs Channing Tatum

channing tatum!

Wentworth Miller

whos hotter Wentworth Miller or Channing Tatum?

i think Channing Tatum is hotter. So, whos with me? Girls, make ur choice! ;) leave comment on chatbox ;)

incase u dont know, Wentworth Miller is the main actor of Prison Break and he was staring in Mariah Carey's We Belong Together video.

Channing Tatum is the guy in Shes The Man and Step Up.

i think Channing is way hotter than Wentworth because.. his eyes arent so tense. unlike wentworth its soooooo weird, u dnt know even know how wentworth looks like when hes feeling happy or angry or whatever because of his eyes. it stays the same way ALL THE TIME. and channing looks so much younger.... just like a typical young adult. HUNKY. hawt.

ok today was like the worse day ever!!!!!

1. had flu and slight cough
2. mr davies told me that he made a "decision" on my behalf that i will resit my P1a C1a B1a which i got As for!
3. business studies test. not hard. but to much questions, i had to leave 2 questions unanswered. one worth 2 marks and one worth 4 marks. not much (A)
4. couldnt concentrate in Music. cant even record a melody after knowing that i will be resitting all 3 papers ON MY BIRTHDAY.
5. got 8.5 out of 10 for Biology homework. that cheers me up.
6. i cant believe i still remember the Night of The Scorpion poem. =) we had to like answer the questions abt the poem.

ok. when mr davies told me that he decided to make me resit my 3 As, i was like gonna cry and i was like tottally blur and i felt nervous the whole day. i also wanted to laugh, without any reason to laugh over for. have u ever felt as if ur heart is soo ticklish that u just wish to laugh? ok heart?ticklish? ahh.. cmon u know what i mean =) which is weird, i think im going crazy. pls blame paracetemol for my abnormal behaviour.

he laughed at me when he told me that! and i was like saying " NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' and mr vardy passed by and laughed too and and farhan overheard it and he was like laughing too! then he stopped and wait for me. then he advised me that i should try resitting coz its worth trying.

ok so i am resitting, and pls tell me its the right thing to do. *cries out loud*

so in break time, i talked to Mr Davies. and we made a deal. HMPH.

i told him that i would like to resit biology coz i think its my strongest subject. and i dont mind resitting chemistry coz i enjoy chemistry. HOWEVER, i do not want to resit P1a because i find it rather hard. well not hard.. but i dnt know. its more of like "not a fun thing to learn" seriously, who cares about windfarms?or tidal waves? i dnt mind doing P1B coz that one is like abt radiation and waves and stuff. some interesting stuffs.

Mr davies made me give like 2 reasons why i dont want to resit Physics. i swear, my voice sounded as if i was gonna cry. i kept sighing everytime he says PHYSICS. lol. *form of persuading*

my reasons were : the P1A bit is boring and not interesting. some maths formula needs to be memorised.

calculating energy effiency is easy but the other one , where u have to calculate how many KJ is used on insulating stuffs is like WHATEVER.

so we made a DEAL.

Mr davies saw my Physics results. Both As for P1a and P1b.

" its really good, but why dont u go for an A*?"

i replied, NOOOOOO PLS NO I DONT LIKE PHSYICS. I DONT MIND RESITTING P1B.

then hes like ok so, why dont u just resit Bio and Chemistry and then if u get an A* we wll resit the physics P1a next year in MARCH. which means, im sitting for the EXAM together with the YR 10s next year.

gawd he makes me feel like im this robotic nerd or smt? im not that hardworking or smt. and doesnt he gets the point that i HATE PHYSICS?

so i came back home, ate lunch, practised piano, then did my media coursework, then finished my maths hwk. and then started revising for BIOLOGY.

i learned abt Fertility Drugs,Menstrual Cycle,Nervous System,and the sensory neurone stuff. I KNOW THE SEQUENCE! REG! BE PROUD OF ME! (H)

i did this.

R ->S -> N -> S-> S-> R -> M-> E

Recepter -> Sensory Neurone-> Nerve-> Spinal Cord -> Synapse-> Relay Neurone-> motor neurone -> effector

WEEEEEEE im proud of myself. despite the TRAGEDIES. yes, TRAGEDIES.

visit asti's blog: http://applebeesvirus.livejournal.com/

once again, i am suffering from a sore throat. *great*

how many times in 5 months did i suffer from this throat poking disease.
as far as i recalled, i drank LOADS OF WATER.

i am currently FRUSTRATED.

my mum told me like last week that prob Lannie and Bawen, my childhood friends are gonna come here to visit me on Friday. well we WERE gonna celebrate something together.

but unfortunately, the weekend in Saudi arabia starts from Weds to Friday so which means, they have to go to sch on a saturday.

and so, they couldnt make it.

yes, it would be awesome if they made a last minute plan. GUYS, PLEASE VISIT ME.

first part done.

what did i do today?

i finished 2 pages of my storyboard, revised business studies, swim, and COOK.

yes rachel cooked.

my mum couldnt figure out what she wanted to cook and so i went to the freezer, defrost a dozen of chicken wings. and started marinating.

RACHEL'S GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE

• 3 tablespoons of Chinese barbeque sauce or just an ordinary bbq sauce
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 1 tablespoon of sugar. ( to make the chicken skin look golden, i like it when its goldenish brownish)

step 1: defrost chicken wings. for about 4 mins in the microwave (dont defrost it too long, it might get too soft)

step 2: marinate chicken wings. add bbq sauce, add salt and sugar. place the chicken wings and the ingredients in a zipper bag. or u could mix it in a bowl. but it might be uneven.

step 3: shake it! and keep shaking it! =D so the chicken wings are marinated evenly.

step 4: leave it for abt 20 mins

mum made a last minute decision. so we went swimming. i left the chicken wings in the fridge. and the longer iits marinated, the nicer it tastes. but its up to u.....how long u wana marinate it.

step 5: take a flat baking tray. cover it with aluminium foil. brush cooking oil on it, so that the chicken doesnt stick on it. preheat oven 385 F

step 6: arrange chicken wings nicely.

step 7: keep remaining sauce.

step 8: wait for half an hour, then flip the chicken wings up to grill the other surface. brush chicken wings with remaining sauce.

step 9: slightly open the oven door, to broil the chicken wing. ( this makes the skin look goldenish brown)

step 10: wait for another 10 mins

AND VOILA! UR GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS.

this comes in handy when ur mum's not at home.

i wanted to take a picture of my chicken wings, but then i forgot . i was too lazy and hungry

oh u could take like half a ginger . and shred it. to add the fragrance hehehe.

and and u know, the oil that comes out from the chicken, u can use it for gravy. just add barbeque sauce and add cornflour. THER U GO. gravy. brown gravy as seen on mashed potatoes.

try it;) and let me know, what u think ok? its simple, and quick. it takes 45 minutes for ur rice to be cooked, while waiting why dnt u prepare rachel's grilled chicken wings to?;) it takes about an hour. =)

i ate it with mashed potatoes.

just simply boil 2 potatoes, then when its soft, smash it, add butter, and add a little bit of milk. pour some gravy on top. there you go. just like in the restaurants =)

Those..Mag...Nificent Men

Those magnificent men in the flying machines... they go up tiddee up up they go down tidee down down, up, down (8)

hey guys, any of u know whats happening to blogger? i cant seem to view my blog or my friends' blog for some strange reasons..

nothing much happened in school.

cept for myself not being able to do Translation and reflection very well. yes guys, most of u say that its easier than lovely quadrats. unfortunately, no for me. seeing as im NOT A visual learner.
i dnt know what to expect if anything gets reflected.

is it common sense? its hard

im more of an auditory learner and a kinestetic. however we spell it. but u know, if i practise reflecting those odd shapes i might be able to do it, but i just CANT be bothered right now, because i HATE this sort of stuff.

the corners have to be perpendicular to the mirror line? - ERK. WHAT?

however in english, Sabri was impressed with my handwriting.

" it looks as if its printed" says Sabri.

well yaa (A) my handwriting is b-a-u-t-ful. it gets messy sometimes depending on how i hold my pen.

oh no, Business Studies End Of Year Exam.
jeng jeng jeng.

all the topics are about Marketing. NOOOOOOOOOOOO

wait, actualy, im ok in it. BUT I FORGOT those lil bits that we learned earlier during the term. not good not good.

btw, im supposed to be finishing off my Media storyboard and like, read a page or two from my Business Studies book.

so i best be off, and ill blog tomoz. adios!

yes, u miss me right? i knoww....

eh, my eyes are painful... i just got back from swimming with Rahmi, popi and fitria.

NEWS FLASH!!

i can SWIM. breast stroke only though *smiles*

my witnesses are the Pitzpopmie. they saw me... i swam more than 2 laps. i swear.i think i did 8 laps. i think. not bad for a beginner, ey? *laughs* i bet ms hemmings will give me 5 merits if i was in yr 7. *thats what she said to me the other day anyways -_-" *

i dnt know why, i was like sort of pissed of when we did the aacting rehearsal for the Yr 10 assembly. the yr 10jva boys werent listening to the girls AT ALL. mr vardy was just sitting down, and i could tell that he wanted us all to focus abt the drama. he din tell us off, instead he just sat there eating crisps. =S

i tried my best to like tell them to "inta chab" but then, like after 10 seconds they started coming up with suggestions. rahmi had to yell at them when she was explaining smt. chaotic.

im starting to go to the gym again =D feels gdddd to be back.. ive got my Summer trip to motivate me =) must lose weight, so that i could as much as i can in Malaysia.

before i went home, mr davies talked to me. and asked if i really dont wanna resit. well, its coz i signed this paper saying that im not gona resit my first chem paper, first bio paper, and first physics paper. i was so tempted to say yes!!!! last week when i was signing that yes/no resit form, i thought of doing it. then in my heart i was like.... ahhh i cant be bothered to studyyy coz i straight As for those.. im gonna resit in Nov coz i got a B in the second paper for chem and second for bio. ( so much for Lammark and Darwin's theory. so much for Ethene and Polymers)

i was so tempted to agree to resit, because mr davies was like, just give it a try. its worth it, who knows u might get an A* which is even better than an A.

so guys, should i resit? --- answer on my chatbox ---

im thinking of doing something during the summer.

like play piano at Marriot or something. lets see how much u get paid for playing piano. im not in desperate need for money, but i need the experience. and plus everyone's gonna be in sch when im having my summer holidays. coz their end of term is in Nov.

i just researched on how much most ppl pay for pianists playing in hotels. its on average $250 US dollars per month. ooo scandalous.

wonder if they give such pay in JW Marriot, Miri.

i should contact them.. or send them an email. i want a summer job.

coz i might get bored while everyone's studying for SPM and PMR. -_-"

( did that) 5 more to go!
3. Sacrament of Penance - cantt really explain.. coz i dnt know. ask Cathy! =D
4. Sacrament of Confirmation - its a sacrament of maturity..... like erm.... its like u complete the Baptism Sacrament.. ahhhh i dnt know!! :'( all i know is that u have to go through Confession.... confess ur sins to the priest and stuff... Scary

6. Sacrament of Annointing of the sick - this is done by the priest when ure like really really sickkk.....

Give Me Just.. One More Try

what an exhausting day..*wipes sweat on forehead*

highlight of the day:

woke up at 11am

had a palmful of rice and 2 spoons of vege *yeah baby*

did media coursework.

called Rahmi up, to accompany me to the Waha, i was cravin for chicken sandwich, but it ran out, got turkey ham sandwich instead.

got home, watched tennis, ate chicken sandwich

chatted for a while, then erm..

went to pick rahmi

then to the dakhira and we went swimming! fitria and popi and tia din swim though.

had dinner. then home.

HERE I AM BLOGGING.

so now, what am i gonna do??

i am gonnna... watch horse whisperer while...doing my Business Studies Marketing Plan.

dammmnnn Samuel just told me that Lannie's prob baween too that theyre gonna go to Oman and theyre gonna go in the same flight to Malaysia!!!!!!!!! AHHH GUYSS!!!!!!!! Muscat-KL. damnnn!! samuel, lannie, bawen, mag, if ure reading this, i could imagine u guys jumping on the landing area saying "WE'RE HOME" sigh........ this is depressing. WAIT FOR ME GUYS. :'(

dammmittttt my sch ends on the 30th of june! and theyre leaving at like 12th of june or smt?!?!
this is sooo nott fairrr.. why cant i go with my friends toooo???????????????

i want too GO HOME..... ive been bragging abt this for a weeeeeekkk!!!!!!

seriously, my mum's friend hasnt booked the tickets yet. WHAT IS TAKING HER SO LONG?!

ahhhh... this is soooooooooooo fckd up.

pretty aint it.....? daddy, i want it. impossible but heck, its gd to dream of having it..(a) i think an O2 is better though.. but that one is dammmmnnn expensive * i think* or is it the same price?? blah.

i woke up at 9 yesterday. abit late but heh. shh. Aunty Beatrice came over to send some Banana fritters and Dates Fritters. datesss fritters. that was my first time eating it. tastes ok, but i loveeeeee the banana fritters.

tastes like the ones the hawkers sell at the little stall along the road or at the Food fair thingy every Friday Night.

after that, my mum and my sibs went to doha with aunty mary and her kids. Lil Kids Day Out. i think. i had the whole house to myself. yay yay. i did 1/3 of my Media Coursework. the analysis bit. *smiles*

i didnt eat at all yesterday, cept for the banana fritters. well.. i drank loads of water. i read this article, if ure hungry, just drink loads of water. smt detoxicating. i forgot. and i did. =) but just imagine the numbr of times i had to go to the toilet.

soo yea, after that Rebecca came over for her Piano lesssons. i swear, how can ppl know the notes and press the wrong thing on the keyboard. DONT THEY KNOW THT IT SOUNDS WEIRD? urgghh. i try not to get mad at her, because shes just a lil kid and shes just started. why, thanks to her previous teacher for not teaching her properly. i thought "he/she" was qualified to teach the piano?!

what happened to the basic skills of playing the piano?? where did it go???

1. ur wrists MUST NOT rest on the keyboard. it limits the finger movement and ure most likely to press the wrong notes.
2. ur fingers must look as if its holding a balloon under it. u HAVE to bend ur fingers and make sure ur wrist doesnt rest on the keyboard. just put ur fist under ur palm, thats how ur fingers are supposed to look like when ure playing.
3. u must sit opposite the middle C key of the piano. in other words, MAKE SURE U SIT IN THE MIDDLE.
4. dont fold ur legs while playing.

well, im not an expert here, but every pianist should know that these are the ABCs in piano playing. mag, do u agree with that? my previous piano teacher was really strict, and i love her to bits!!!! i shud give her a ring once im in Miri. muahahah

ok. enough abt piano.

oh then, i went Kickboxing. so tiring mannnnn.... loll

then then i went out to waha. and its my first time wearing flip flops. i was like, " i should wear flip flops, since its the summer already" hahahah before i left, i painted my toenails Ruby Red. prettttyyyyy =D

ate at the Waha, with Rahmi, Popi and Fitria. popi and i actually exchanged food. i din like the Fried rice i ordered, but i liked her chicken sandwich. she went GUGUGAGA over the Fried Rice. im like " Dakhira's fried rice tastes better"

went home like 2 hrs later.... was in a hurry coz Glitter was gonna start. the movie is BAD. the camera techniques are like WEIRD. did they use a handheld cm or smt? but i swear, i think the cameraman is crap.

so mum and the kids came home, and my mum was like.."spiderman 3 is sooo gdd!" - (muneeb, i think ure smiling now.lol)

and then im like but its an action movie. then shes like " no no, theres not much of it. its more abt friendship, love and loyalty"

im like.." u sure its gd?" then shes like " u know i dnt usually say a movie is good, if i say tthis movie is gd, then its realy good"

and then esther came up to me and shes like " damnnnn the hot guy died"

THANKS FOR THE SPOILER.

i think shes doing that to make me want to watch it. and she said that she cried at the ending.

I REALLY THINK I SHUD WATCH IT.. esther is not this girly girl who cries over a movie. whats so special abt this movie that it made her cry? MUST WATCH.

ok i g2g. its 12:36 pm and i havent taken my shower yet. mag, if ure reading this, upload the pics of ur prom night on ur blog.

announcement ppl!

Regina updated her blog, check it out.

For You From Me

guys, download For You From Me - Jon Mclaughlin.

its pop rock. smt simliar to John Mayer and Rob Thomas. i love the song. the piano intro is amazing! cant wait to get my hands on the piano and play the chords. just that i cant be bothered to search for it in the internet xD.

hey people, jasz's got a new blog, check it out ya! i linked her on my blog, just scroll down and click her name to read her blog entries.

*sighs*

its the half term!!!!!!!

here goes rachel's checklist:

1. Finish Maths homework - Quadratics <3>
2. Finish Media coursework -Storyboard and Analysis of directorial techniques for DR Strangelove
3. Finish Business Studies homework - Marketing Plan
4. Finish English Coursework - 3rd Draft A View From The Bridge
5. Finish Music homework - Listen and identify classical music, and identify the texture and instruments

as for today, i shall relax. might wanna go for a walk later, we'll see. coz i dnt wanna miss Summerland tonight. tonight's episode should be interesting. and it So You Think U Can Dance semi finals! weeeee exciting.

i shall wake up at 8 oclock tomoro. and start doing my homeworks. and finish it before the weekends. but theres so much of em!! *cries* i shall do the easy ones, then do abit of the hard ones.

i shall pay a visit to the gym. heheheh

we've got a Maths test the week after the holidays!! very exciting!!!! i think i can do well in this one. its Quadratics + some complex quadratics, its gonna be ok for me, i just need to keep practising doing those equations. not coz practice makes perfect, but more practice makes me familiar to the concept of doing it.

PRACTICE DOESNT MAKE ANYTHING PERFECT. - thats what i think. agreed? no?

so tomoro, my mum and my sisters and bro are gonna watch Spiderman 3. pah, ima stay at home. finish my hws. theyre going to ShitCentre or "ShittyCentre" like Zhaf calls it. anyway, not gonna go there.

i went there last week. not gonna go there again. that place sucks. it should look more classy and cheerful. if only it was like Kuala Lumpur City Centre. marbled floors, decorated ceilings, nice elevators, pretty lightings. feels as if ure walking at a high end street! the atmosphere itself is very welcoming. unlike the one here. SUCKS. eventhough theres so many branded shops at that place, it just sucks. what happened to all the ppl involved in decorating the malls? like.. a team whos in charge on how the Mall looks like. dont they have any????

enough abt ShitCentre, back to my point. i shall be focused on my homeworks seeing as the teachers are gonna write reports soon, its gd to give some positive impression. *evil grin*

anyways ppl, ima go have my tea. ima get myself Cranberry juice. *slurps*

im gonna fall asleep typing this post. i shud go. ADIOS

I only got 15 minutes to do what i gotta do

ok, ive got 15 mins to blog bfore summerland starts.

yesterday was NOT COOL.

citycentre is such a mood spoiler and an energy waster.

but then, i bought myself 2 headbands and i bought Vidia's gift.

i have no idea what to blog abt actually.

well...... i put hair mask on my hair! now its so soft, and it smells so gd. my hair is short, so by putting hair mask, i could prevent my hair from being contaminated by pollutants. prevents frizz, and split ends! ive been using hair mask for like.. a yr now. and that product is really gd!

its amazing how ppl never noticed that my hair is slightly brown. i dyed it in January!! M.A and M.K just realised it today. anyways guys, my natural hair colour is similar to mine now, cept its just a bit darker.

got 10 more mins left.

i downloaded a few songs yesterday & today. wanna know? =D

1. Feelin' Good -Michael Buble
2. Just Fine - Chris Brown
3. Gotta get thru this (acoustic version) - Daniel Bedingfield
4. World -Five For Fighting
5. Love Show - Skye ( ive been listening to it alot!!!!! its REALLY niceeee)
6. Rihanna ft Neyo- Hate That I Love U

right. i saw this girl in sch, i really wished i could give her the looks. or like make the loser sign unconciously. too bad, her back was facing me. well, i always say that im gonna do it, but i dont take action. coz im kinda scared. grr.

i thought i was gonna go to the gym at 5pm, but then.. i overslept. good news, i went to the gym on friday!! i should go tomorow, seeing as i ate ice cream in HellCentre yesterday.

guys guys. download Rob Thomas - Little Wonders awesome songgggg....

rachel is currently: blur, excited for summerland,unsure,tired,lazy

so im here typing this while waiting for my mum to get ready.

we're gonna go to CityCentre. joy~

at first i din wanna come, coz well u know, i hate CityCentre. but then, i need to buy my hair mask. and if i count on my mum to buy it for me, she wouldnt know which one it is. and plus, its a Saturday so hopefully not much ppl are at CityCentre.

sooo last night, jasz and all came..

no biggy, just ate, talk and camwhored. then went to my hse to chat and watch videos.

ill post up the picturos.

aaahhhhh CityCentre. DAMMIT. i hope i can change their plans by making them go to Landmark.

ok ok. mum's ready. i better go.

Lover lover dont come up....=P

i just finished watching Grey's Anatomy.. on Showtime Series 2. this week's episode is "Great Expectations" from season 3. im just gonna give a lil bit of spoilers. soz guys. hehe

Dr Burke proposed to Christina! well of course she din expect it because they havent been talking to each other for weeks!

George proposed to Callie... after she refused to have sex with him. lol

i love the show so much! its sooo cool.. ive always loved medical drama. when i was small i watched ER. and i still remember, my mum used to say it was EstherRachel. pfft. lol i used to watch X Files too! Love Sally's boyfriend. i forgot his name.. now those kinda series dont appeal to me anymore.

i went to check out the Grey's Anatomy website on ABC.com. and i took this Grey's Diagnosis quiz.. and then see which character in the show is similar to me.

and... mine is.. Meredith Grey!! and it tells me why im similar to her.

"You're Meredith. You don't always make the right choices, but you get points for trying, bouncing right back and starting it over. For being so "dark and twisty" you have a sunny outlook on life. You're quick to jump into new relationships and quick to jump out of it too."

well.. do i agree on that statement that quiz made?

erm... kinda.. maybe 8/10. yes, i am always happy and looking forward for whats coming next in my life. yes im quick to jump into new relationships. and jump out of it too. hahahah i get over a guy fast. trust me. i dnt go cry a river or gooo all desperate apologizing or whatever. if i know its over, i move on -FAST.plus, not as if there isnt any hotter guys in the world. right?lol. jk. coz life's too short to live. hahah

i went for kickboxing today. woooots. did really well!! but then when i got back home, pizza hut was for dinner. dammit. lol. then i ate an apple just to like balance it up. right now im drinking loads of water. 6 glasses tonight. at least.

so after kickboxing, i sat in front of the Waha gym..the snooker area.. whatever u call that place. coz M.a,ahmed a, shreya and uzair was there. so me and nadia had a lil chat with shreya and uzair. while the other two were in the gym working out.

while talking.. omg omg shreya's friend came. he just got back from Canada. OH MYGOD. SOOO EFFINN HOT. he looks like... lebanese mix latino or smt? SERIOUSLY HOT! when shreya was tlaking to him... i was like spelling the word hot in malay to nadia.

" nadia.. aduhh... tgk tu.. P-A-N-A-S!!!!!!!"

in english " nadia.. dammmnn.. look at him.. H-O-T!!"

and i kept repeating that same thing for like 8 times?coz shreya was like having a 2mins chat with him. NOT FAIR. his dressing up was like a model. dammit. and his hair? wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sorta like beckham's... but its also kinda like.. fernando torres's. how hot is that.

i could tell that i was blushing coz my cheeks were like feeling hot. and my fingers were cold! what a shame. hes only here for holiday. he just came 2 days ago. dammit. SO FCKIN HOT.

i wanted to like wave at him justnow. but then i was too shy. seriously, i wanted to. =( well itll be nice to just wave, then at least he has a gd impression of me. (A) DAMMIT. SO HOT MAN.
is he a model?? gawd. i forgot his name. it was too weird. Survar? better not mess arnd with hot guy's name. ok enough abt hot guy. coz right now, i regret for not waving :( or saying hi.

soo i was giving Rebecca piano lessons before i left for kickboxing. yay! she can play the Minuet in G song i taught her last week!!!! im so proud of her. so today.. i was really strict. because her sight reading is poor. well she could read the notes but yet she pressed a diff key on the piano keys. so what i did was....

"Rebecca, i want to hear an A from your right hand and i want to hear a C from ur left hand"

so at first she took her time. then im like FASTER FASTER ur running out of time.

now i want a G and a B. quickly!

then after that... she could look for the keys quickly, and correctly!! omg im so proud of her..

i taught her a new song.. i hope she can play that precisely.

and i had to be like a Metronome. counting the beats for her. she plays so slowly and carefully. im not that kinda pianist. so i snap my fingers and count 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and. LOL... sometimes i tap the piano stool. and she seems to enjoy the beat.

to teach a lil kid, u have to praise them a lot. so everytime Rebecca gets the beat right or hits the right note, i go " Well Done!" or "Good Job". hhaahah its fun teaching.. but its a big challenge. coz its really annoying when some ppl play simply by just hitting the wrong notes and then pause coz they know they did it. and then they try to figure out what note that is.tsk tsk. boring i tell u.

not to boast or anything, but i dnt play wrong notes(A) the only time i get wrong notes is if my finger slips from a black key to a white key. or when i need to jump to another key. my main problem is my fingering. if i get my fingering right, i can play it perfectly. muahahaha. mrs miles said that my sight reading is incredible! =D *smiles*

Talk To The Hand

10:02 pm right now.

must be 3:02 am in Malaysia.

so right now, Christie's parents are here... christie's mum is discussing with my mum abt the price of the craftworks she made which shes gonna sell during the Visit Malaysia Exhibition this Friday at Hyatt Plaza.

these are the necklaces. made out of beads. the patterns are mostly influenced by the Kayan culture. simply because Christie's mum is a Kayan. the patterns are so exotic, dont u think? some patterns are influenced by the Iban's "puakumbu". A puakumbu is a type of textile that has this special pattern to it.its a traditional Iban weaving. ill show u a pic.

sigh, the necklaces are sooo pretttyy!! i felt like asking my mum to buy one of the black and white necklaces. it would look good if i wear it with a black outfit. OMG. i want it.i could tell my mum that i want it(A) its just right on top of my dining table.

so the ibans, kayans, kenyahs, bidayuhs etc wear these necklaces during special occasions... (im an Iban mix Bidayuh. pronounced Ee-Ban dad's bidayuh mum's iban. but dad says hes an iban coz he cant speak bidayuh and coz his mum is Iban. sigh, mixed blooded. )well honestly, i dnt wear them. hahaha coz the elder ones use it. the occasions are usually after the harvesting-season. see that 2nd picture? well its a basket, covered with beads and sequins. u could use it to put keep ur pens, pencils.. or hair clips or whatever!

the simpler version of it is made out of rattan. comes in many diff sizes i use them when i go to my grandparent's pepper orchard. very handy, when u pluck the pepper out of the tree/plant w/e u call it. u just toss them in the basket!

oh wow, infact i should be the spokesperson for the tourism malaysia exhibition. representing Miri, Sarawak -- Rachel Reeni Ricky.

<-----1/100th part of Miri. lol



soo what else should i share? oh ive got pics of my mum's decorated cupcakes. i was thinking that i should show it to bisma. ive been telling her that i would show it. so here they are!

Jesse Mccartney <3

ok. this is my second post.

i just needed to post this coz, i was so frustrated today. LOL. jesse mccartney cheers me up.

i go GUGUGAGA over him, when i watch his latest video and the Summerland episodes.

SO HOT.

im turning to a 12 yr old having a celeb crush . this is so shameful *blush*

hes my new celeb crush. NO MORE brad pitt. hahahah hes getting older. i might go for Aaron Carter too. hes so hot. watch House of Carters every Monday on E! TV at 8 pm.

SIGH, IF ONLY JESSE DATES HILARY. wouldnt it be perfect?

Just Zip It

"zip it. im the boss here ok?" - by a 1 0 yr old girl called Heidi. she told me,magdeline and kristen to shut up coz we were laughing and talking so loud.

sorry. that was just random. it just occured on my mind.

right, on my previous post, i said " i love the day today"

unfortunately, im gonna say.. " I HATE THE DAY TODAY."

why??

because...

• first thing in the morning, i was pissed at certain reason.
• i didnt understand the quadratics. but im happy now coz i have figured why i did that stupid mistake. i still love quadratics btw. EXCITING!
• balancing equations was a horror. that technique is soo confusing. id stick to my on.
• i was too sleepy

i clearly din talk much in science nor did i talk much during break time. i was just PISSED.

ok enough abt that. hahah

i love the day today. <3<3

first thing in the morning was maths.

we were doing Quadratics. I LIKE!!!!!

well, we learnt tht yesterday, but then i kinda understnad and kinda not understand.

so i insisted mr rogers on teaching us again. AND SO HE DID.

so yea, me and regina went GUGAGUGA because we UNDERSTAND the concept of quadratics.

note: we din use the formula, we had to use the "completing the square" technique. so it was sorta hard!

see right, me and regina were competing against each other.

first, we did one question together. then we did some ourselves.

reg: lets do question C. alone ok?
rach: im gonna get this! (6)
reg: alah. shut up shut up.
rach:fine
reg: *reads the equation out loud*
rach: *keeps writing, ignoring what shes doing"

- 2 mins later-

rach: I GOT IT!!!
reg: wtf. shut up shut up.
rach: *turns to the last page, and checks answer." then, shouts out the answer!
rach: YAY! I GOT IT RIGHT ITS (answer)!!!!
reg: WTF... NOOOOOOO

then i went thru her working and she did LOADS Of mistakes!

she din wanna give up. so we did few more questions.

i won, overall!! i answered 3 questions correctly, and she only answered 1 question correctly. out of 4 ques.

and then i said, REG, i know, u cant do quadratics without me guiding u.(6)

lol then she kept doing some more questions, which i cant be bothered so i moved on to the next exercise.

HAHAH.. fun fun

we had swimming.... HOORAY! i can officially anounce that i can do breast stroke PROPERLY.
*sad* I KNOW!!!!! well i cant swim, soo yeahh(h)

ms malabar was pleased! =D

after swimming, we had to change into ou uniforms.. unfortunately my socks was wet because i dropped it on the wet floor. i decided to squeeeze the socks in front of rahmi. SHE TOTALLY FREAKD OUT. hahahahah

so funnyyy... lol. btw ppl... i know i haavent been updating ages, thats coz.. Google din accept the post? coz "the query is similar to a virus threat" WTF.

lol whatever.

the whole post abt yesterday was deleted :'(

i wrote abt my new haircut and some tips in communicating with hairdressers.

ill post it soon.

Excited!!!!!

ok i just got back from Villagio.
din buy anything, i was looking for a pair of jeans. unfortunately, they were too big. or too tight. i hate it when the pockets go beyond my butt, so its like loose-looking kinda jeans? ewww

i ate at the Thai Restaurant in villagio!

the food was ALMOST LIKE HOME. except back home i could get fried singapore noodles for 3 riyals instead of 30 riyals here. -_-"

and u know.... the Fried Rice tastes like the one in Pujut Seafood Restaurant!!! the fried noodles tasted like Pak Cik Wan's cafe!

amazing! TASTE OF HOME!

u know i was laughing at the arabs coz they never had fried rice before. I MEAN HOW SAD CAN U BE NOT EATING FRIED RICE.

fried rice is DELISH! sooo niceeeeeeee.......!!!! chinese fried rice is the best!!!!1
char sew pork, or char sew chicken, which actually means barbequed chicken.. then erm together with salted duck eggs, fully boiled then diced into small pieces. + sweet onions, and and spinach. DELICIOUS!!!

but here the fried rice was.. Char sew chicken + Mushrooms+Peking Duck
YUMM. still, its fried rice so put whatever u want!

my Singapore Style Fried Noodles was AWESOME. if u guys ( Mirians) eat at Pak Cik Wan Cafe, then the noodles tasted like the Bee Hoon Goreng!!! OMG.. so deliicious!! and and and and i was like eating with chopsticks for the first time in middle east. CALL ME SAD.

see how picky i am when it comes to eating, i dnt choose chinese food here coz its YUCKY. its the indians who cook the chinese food.

but this one is PERFECT. PERFECT. im gonna go there again. and try the Wantan!!! WANTAN OMGGGG WANTAN!!

magdeline, hahahahahahahah does Oman have delicious thai+chinese restaurant which cooks food almost as the Chinese Coffee Shop does?

i bet Betty is enjoying herself in Dubai, Dubai has LOADS of chinese restaurants. THATS NOT FAIR.

guys, instead of going to Mcdonalds or KFC or TGI Fridays to eat, go to the Thai Chi Restaurant.

ITS AWESOME. all u need is 50 riyals and u can enjoy ur meal. feeling satisfied as u walk out from the restaurant.
service is goood!!! i give it 4 thumbs up. because..... when it was time to return the change, they took ages!

IN THE CAR, I DISCUSSED ABT MY SUMMER WITH MY PARENTS.

heres some pics. note: this is not the one my mum made. im too lazy to take photos of the cake.

it takes loads of time.. to make the patterns like that... u need to use a chopstick... but i could never figure out how the chopstick helps in making the pattern.

my mum's a beginner so, hers was just green-cream-green-cream. no complex pattterns hahaha.

for lunch i ate, Beef Rendang. YUMM. stir fried chicken and this vegetable. is it called Squash? i dnt know what that is.
