The Big Year

'Who knows, maybe I wouldn't have met Stu if he hadn't gotten sick that day.

Sometimes friendship, like birding, depends on luck. Blink and you'll miss it.'

- Jack Black as Brad Harris in The Big Year -

Sit Back & Relax

The family is now safely back in Malaysia. Dear husband has just flown out to Iraq. I've got the house all to myself. So apa lagi, it's time to sit back, relax, catch up on my TV series, sambil makan keropok lekor panas. Aaahhh...bliss~

First up, THISSS...is American Idol!

Terukir Di Bintang

1. L.O.V.E this song! As usual, Yuna never disappoints.

2. I like seeing Yuna and Qi together. I think they are one of those sempoi but very sweet couples. (Dear Qi, Please shave your beard. You are on the edge of losing your comel-ness. - Your concerned fan, Rina)

3. Dearest SRB, bilakah saye boleh merasa naik gondola romantika di Italy itu? Terukir di bintang, tak mungkin hilang, cintaku padamu (ayat kiss-ass ni ngeehehehee =P)

I Don't Know

Most of the time, 'I don't know' means 'I know, but I don't want to tell you.'

- Dr. Dani Santino, Necessary Roughness -

Hmmm...interesting...

P/S: Sometimes while watching some TV shows or reading some books, I'd come across some lines which would make me pause and go, "Hmmm, that's true. I never thought of it that way." Like there are some kind of lessons to be learned there. Like something about those lines that sort of speak my mind. And I like to write them down here so I can be reminded of the lessons I learned or what I was thinking/feeling at the time of writing. That's why, in case you haven't noticed by now, this space is full of quotes instead of personal anecdotes. And if you don't like it or find it annoying, well, it's simple really - just piss off. Capisce?

50/50

Adam: That's what everybody's been saying. You'll feel better and don't worry and this is all fine and it's not.

Katherine: You can't change your situation. The only thing that you can change is how you choose to deal with it.

I couldn't make him cry watching The Notebook (the ultimate tear-jerker movie ever). But tonight, 50/50 finally did the job. Actual tears were shed. Tonight, history was made. Hehe.

P/S: Joseph Gordon-Levitt sgt comelllll!

Staying Alive

"I wish you told me how you felt."

"I thought you knew."

"That was your trouble, Murray - you always assumed I could read your mind."

"Isn't that how it's supposed to be? When you've been with someone for a while, you know what they're thinking. I always knew what's on your mind."

Ctrl Alt Del

Check out those Ctrl Alt Del sofa pillows from Two and A Half Men.

So geeky yet so cool! I want! Although I'm not really a computer nerd like say...the gang in The Big Bang Theory, whom I'm sure these pillows are made for, who cares! Nerd schnerd, I think they'll look great on our grey couch huhu~

2011 Our Year in Sports

...as spectators, that is.

Though I wish I could say that I played all these sports in the past year instead. If I did, man, I would've been the proud owner of a fantastic 6-pack abs by now dude hahah! (And I wouldn't be making the clichéd new year resolution - to lose weight and get fit - yet again this year *sighhh*)
