Oppaaa

Latest (Korean) celebrity crush: Joo Sang Wook

Oppaaa, why laa you so cuteee...sigh~

Blue

Blearrgghh...I feel blue~

Spoilers

Barney proposed to Robin and she said YES! (Yeah, we all knew Barney is gonna end up marrying Robin at the end but seeing how he got her back by pulling 'The Robin' was truly awesome!)

The Gossip Girl has been revealed and it's none other than...Dan Humphrey aka Lonely Boy! Say whaaattt? I stopped watching it after season 3, so I have no idea what's been going on in the series recently - maybe if I watch it, I would see it coming (but then again, I'm glad I stopped watching coz Dan Humphrey looks hideous now ewww!). But still, I never thought that Gossip Girl would be a 'he'.

So now there are only a few more TV biggest shockers that I'm still waiting to see:

1. The Mother in HIMYM, of course

2. The moment when Raj Koothrappali is finally able to talk to girls without having to consume any kind of alcoholic beverage first in The Big Bang Theory

3. Jess & Nick to fall in love with each other in New Girl

4. Mindy & Danny to fall in love with each other in The Mindy Project

5. Beverly & Sean Lincoln to get back together in Episodes (I wish there were more episodes per season! Matt Le Blanc playing an exaggerated version of himself is hilarious!)

And last but not least (and in other completely unrelated type of shocker =p), I'm waiting for Jennifer Aniston to get married to Justin Theroux in a gorgeous wedding dress and have gorgeous kids (either naturally, via surrogacy or adoption - I don't mind) and live in a gorgeous mansion so that she would finally be able to say, "IN YOUR FACE, BRAD!!!" Thehehehe...

The Woman Who Went To Bed For A Year

"Are you going to empty it?"
"No," she said. "I have to stay in or on the bed."
"Sorry, I didn't realize you were ill."
She said, "I'm not ill. I'm just retreating from the world...I think."
"Yeah? Well, we all have our own way of doing that."

The Man Who Forgot His Wife

   'No, you've got to have fights in a marriage. Otherwise what's the point of being together? What is it you see tattooed on people's fingers? "L.O.V.E." on one hand, "H.A.T.E." on the other. They're two sides of the same coin.'
   'But why does it have to be "love" and "hate"? Why can't it be "compromise" and "mutual empathy"?'
   'Tattoist would run out of fingers.'

2 Days 1 Night

Sung Si Kyung in 2 Days 1 Night

CAIRRRrrrrRRRrrrr!!! 

I've been bitten by the K-bug and am now addicted to Korean variety shows hehe!

The Sky Is Everywhere

"It's the easiest thing to be lost if you don't want to be found."

Young Adult books are kinda lame with all their "Oh my god! I was, like,...and then he was, like,..." dialogues. But right now, I'm kinda, like, loving them =p! 

Open 24 Hours

Starting today until 2nd Nov, the Dubai Mall will be opened for 24 hours straight during weekends. This includes Dubai Aquarium & underwater zoo, Kidzania, Sega Republic (an indoor theme park), the cinemas and the ice skating rink. (If adalaa parents yg bawak anak dia gi Kidzania at 3-4 in the morning, pehhh tak taulaa den nak cakap apo.) 

Personally I think it's a little extreme, kot yea pun nak increase tourism kan, but oh well, this country is known for doing 'extreme' stuff - tallest building, palm tree-shaped islands, ski resort in a mall, white water rafting in the middle of the dessert - so I shouldn't be surprised anymore. 

But just for the heck of it, maybe I should go & check out the mall at 3-4 in the morning nanti hehe.

Keluarga Iskandar

Dear SRB and I are currently totally hooked on 'Keluarga Iskandar'. Back in Msia last month, I was a bit reluctant to watch it at first coz I didn't like the obvious fact that they tiru Modern Family's mockumentary style of shooting. 

But on my last night at home, there was really nothing good on TV and I was forced to choose between some lame, trying-too-hard-to-be-funny game show featuring Raja Lawak's rejects and an episode of this Modern-Family-wannabe 'Keluarga Iskandar' series. I chose the latter coz I just couldn't bear watching all those Raja Lawak people endlessly trying to prove how they can be funny at any given situation. 

Managed to watch it till the end (Zain Ruffedge was in it - didn't know that he could act!) and you know what? It's actually a pretty good show! Agak kelakar with sempoi and true-to-life dialogues which made it soo relatable. 

The usage of 'The Silent Treatment/Layanan Senyap' after an argument - relatable. 

Lines like "Alaaa nanti last2 memang semua kena ikut cara mak jugak." - very relatable. 

"Yelah, takpelah. Biarlah mak mati sorang2..." - ohh so veryyy relatable kehkehkeh!
