its a lomo wonderland!

D bought his latest addition to our lomography collection.



a ukrainian KIEV 35A.

i have yet to master the art of using it since its undoubtly the most trickiest and difficult one to handle so far. even the holga was a breeze compared to this one.

earlier during the day, we had some sort of miscommunication which resulted in D having to go to the gallery by himself to buy the camera. wish i was there.
anyways, he did drop by later to show off his new gadget and boy, was i impressed!

among all the models we have so far this was without a doubt the sleekest, most stylish and smallest model so far. it even came complete with a black leather pouch bag and a hand strap. cool or what?

im really anticipating the outcome since the guy in wondermilk had only four shots to show us. (ini je yang jadi daripada 36 keping)

this is probably what a product of a kiev 35 would look like






pretty neat, huh?

lets see if D does better. or maybe i will.

S, the official cult member

i think im sad.
everybody looks forward to fridays because its the end of the week and its party time/dating/movies/late nights. anyone and everyone knows that. even mummy and papa look forward to fridays so they can kick back and sleep till ten.
do you know why i look forward to fridays?
because i, officially the saddest and devoted fan of reality tv will get to watch survivor. :p
i dont know who's brilliant idea was this whole reality tv shit but it sure is working its magic on me. im a sucker for reality tv. my friend K, thinks only idiots fall for reality tvs.
name it and im glued like there's no tomorrow. survivor (best giler!), amazing race (lagi thrill dari all those crappy venezuelan/mexican/spanish/whatever soaps), idol series, meet the folks, next action star, next top model (bodoh sikit, tapi tengok jugak), akademi fantasia (memang dah demam) and the whole lot of it.
when an akademi fantasia concert was airing every saturday night, both D and i planned our dates just so we didnt miss the concert.
he even cancelled on me once for fear he might miss some parts of the show on his way to hartamas square.
whos sadder than me?. *smug*

tonight is another episode of survivor and what happens every week is that my idiot brother who happens to know im a huge survivor cult follower irritates me by telling me who was voted out by finding out from the website. i dont want to know in advance!!! it takes the whole thrill and heart pounding (whoa..that serious?) from watching the show.
he's an ass, i know. he even does that with the amazing race.

i always imagined myself on those shows especially the amazing race. although i cant read a map to save my life. what is it with women that they cant read maps? i cant even read the map behind the invite of a wedding card!



what i can do however is drive a stick gear (manual lar tu) unlike those idiots american. stick gear man!!!!! how hard could it be?

D writes, it has been awhile...

it's been awhile.

the big project of the year has been done and delivered - finally. i refused to go to work but each morning my body, like it has a brain of its own, moves like a zombie to the damn office. yet my own brain refused to work properly.

started looking for jobs. went to a couple of interviews. looks promising but don't really like the job. am i being choosy? probably. once you worked like me, you'll know. or rather being 25 and your friends already booming, you'll know.

i guessed i missed out so much of the world these couple of months. thou i had the time to go partying and fights. hehe. what else?

things did happened. like realizing to tolerate others and stuffs. like trying to say things you meant and at the same time you don't want to hurt. like trying to make things new on my pathetic, sadistic life. like learning to curse and bitch on idiots deep inside until it fades away. rather than saying it out loud.

i don't really know what to write.

i guess it's been awhile...

experimentation maybe overrated

*sigh* tired.
the years ending. i expect a lot of rainy days but why does my car feels like the microwave each time i get in?
there was a slight reshuffle and now my friends are away and we're not together. good or bad? we try to meet up at that mamak almost everyday anyways.
the only friend i suppose i have right now would be Y. but he's guy. does that count? i dont care.
i guess im not complaining since he's a lot of fun and reliable as any of my girlfriends. (can anyone say gay?) and we're probably the only two smokers in the group so that's kinda nice too. friends forever, die together, heh.

this weekend i m off to ipoh to hold my friends hand as she's having jitters about getting engagement, so she's counting on me to be there.

and another very, very good friend KS is going back to her hometown this weekend 'sebab sayang nak masuk meminang'. wow.
i ask her as to why she had to be there and she told me that in her culture she's expected to wear a saree and serve the drinks. right.

and this is the next one on the list to end her single days. (dont lie and deny!)

jiwang and her boyfriend who's practically already member of the al-jamalulail clan.

pure and applied

late late last night i came up with an equation.

overworked + underpaid = my boyfriend.

we had dinner yesterday evening at hartamas after i picked him up from his office. he was complaining of tiredness, backaches, useless collegues, and hunger. shame.
and so we went for dinner. i thought that right after dinner he would be heading straight home for much needed rest.
apparently not. it was just a 'dinner break' (you know? like lunch breaks?).
he headed straight back to the office after dinner. the poor soul.
i'm gonna burn the office if he doesnt give you a bonus, i swear.

i dont really know what time he got back from work yesterday but i knew that while i was trying to put myself to sleep he called and told me he was still working his ass off at the office. that was like, two 'o clock in the morning i guess.

anyways, ive been busy myself with workload and younger cousins (rina's here. again!) spending time since its the holidays and stuff.
today was a really, really early morning. i left the house while it was still dark.

he needs rest. i need rest. wish we could do it together.


rina took this picture of me struggling to get up this morning with her new cell. brat!
