why did GOD created brothers?

i hate my brother. thats no secret. ask my mom or my dad. or you could ask my better half. why do you think brothers were created? this particular nuisance who lives with me will definitely cut short my life span due to high blood pressure or cancer of the mind.
he's a skinny lad, junkie, talks to me while scratching his crotch, drives my car and forget to fill up, has equally clueless friends (tho some are really cute) and unreliable at all costs.

once, his friends came to stay for the nite, they were up till morning doing bong hits. *shoot* the next morning i found a digital camera on his desk while they were asleep. man! these idiots are vain!!! they were up all nite not only getting high on drugs, they were actually styling their hair and taking pictures. front. back. sideways. smiling. scholarly look. topless. who the hell do they think they are? thank god the other one is a hundred miles away at school. dont think i can handle another one like this.

can you make omelettes without breaking the eggs?

is that a real metaphor or did R just made it up? because i havent come across that one before and its kinda cute really. i mean, how often do we actually hear metaphors that we can actually relate too?

i guess thats the equivalent of 'kalau tak pecahkan ruyung mane nak dapat sagu?'

what is that all about? i dont know what a 'ruyung' is and ive never seen 'sagu' inside it either. in fact the only 'sagu' i've seen is those in my bowl. or those they make into that reddish/pinkish kuih that i kinda like but always smells bad after a while.
can everybody start revolutionizing the metaphors? its getting on my nerves that half of the time when i try to sound wise i dont even know what im talking about. or when someone tries to be smart and they have no idea what they 're going on about.

'ada udang di sebalik batu'

truthfully i've been to quite a few beaches and ive never seen a prawn/shrimp behind the rocks. honestly. even in the seafood restaurants they dont bother hiding behind any rocks. the only thing behind those rocks are crabs.
it must've been some fisherman from the east coast who came up with this one. and while he was diving i guess. thank you sir, we will all at one time or another dive and find out what you really meant.

its totally irrelevant anyways. just thought about it while IMing with R, D's colleague.

really, i dont have anything better to do tonite. im so so so pissed actually. ive been following the amazing race 7 from the very first episode and never ever missed an episode ever! (im a reality show freak, yes i know) and tonite is the finale. tonite. i was fidgety all day to get home even though i already knew who won through the internet. and today of all the magnificent days was the day my mom decided to forget to pay the astro bill and today too, astro decided to disconnect us. WTF!!??

*sigh*

come up with a metaphor for that please?

sad song, sad girl

something happened today. made me think of this song. a particular favourite of mine anyway.

This years love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
I've been waiting on my own, too long
When you hold me like you do
It feels so right, oh now
Start to forget how my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feelin' like I can't go on.
Turnin' circles time again
Cut like a knife,
If you love me got to know for sure
Cuz' it takes something more this time
Then sweet, sweet lies,
Before I open up my arms and fall losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
When you kiss me on that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singin' ain't this life so sweet?
Cuz' whose to worry if our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't you notice life goes on
Won't you kiss me on that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singin' ain't this life so sweet

jumping jesus, holy cows-what's the difference anyhow?

the thing i like best about weekends is the fact that i get to spend it with the one i love doing absolutely nothing at all.
saturday found us at yet another gig with his friends playing including the newlyweds who were looking so so radiant that nothing it seems was able to wipe the smiles of their face. aww...!
also met A and her bf U, and had a bit of a chat before we left. (sorry A! memang tak boleh duduk lame2. short attention span!)
dinner at hartamas was a bit of a blur but the BEST PART was watching footie in the VIP area at the Nokia 442 zone with his colleagues. *the perks of having a bf in the publishing world*

D, who knew nuts about footie was playing 20 questions with me
"kita kena sokong yang mane?"
"kenapa dia dapat free kick?"
"injury time tu ape?"
"kenapa kalau kad merah tak boleh ganti orang lain?"
"you boleh layan bola?"
not that im such a football fan but i guess i know a bit that could constitute as common knowledge.

we left with our goodie bags after he was getting more and more restless by the minute. "berape minit baru halftime?"

great day but found myself exhausted while he was driving me home. thinking to myself that ill go straight to bed was nothing more than wishful thinking!
crazy/beautiful was on the tube, and frankly who could resist a hot, hot hottie like jay hernandez? then i succumbed to my latest addiction - online scrabble! (yes, im a nerd. so what?)

and to mummy..HAPPY MUMMY'S DAY!!
