a million excuses

eat, sleep, watch tv, go online.

that's my life right now. so boring can?!

i've gotten fat. EVERYONE who meets me seems to have this urgency to tell me what i already know and see everyday in the mirror.

whatever happened to 'hi ali, how are you doing? hows school? hows life?' now its just begone with the pleasantries and straight to 'OMG, you've put on weight!'

well i could look at it as i no longer have to think of a conversation starter with people. i could just go up to them and say, 'have you seen my double chin?'


its not like i dont care about it. i do want to shed a few pound. i've even decided to jog at the park near my house. i set my clock to 9am every morning.

first day. rain.
second day. rain.
third day. just stopped raining. but the ground's gonna be wet and slippery, so i better not.
fourth day. cloudy. there seem to be dark clouds in the distant. like at bishan. so will probably rain soon. better not. if not later caught in the rain. me walking home in a wet tshirt isnt exactly sexy. for now.
fifth day. sunny skies, birds chirping. perfect day. but i'm going out later to meet my friends. if i jog now, i will be too tired later. too tired to meet my friends for dinner later.
sixth day. another perfect morning. maybe i'll just snooze for another 10minutes since i slept late yesterday night. snooze all the way till 2pm.


its not like i never tried. right?


i've also heard its a good habit to eat breakfast. but you know what goes best with a glass of milk?

oreos.


doink. i need help. will somebody ask me out for badminton, cycling or some form of sports please.


alright. now i shall end this entry with a style post. an outfit picture taken when i could still fit into my skinny jeans.

i wore this to zouk with my unimates. i blogged about the zouk entry like a couple post back. so if you want you could go check it out.

let my pictures tell a story

school projects can be such a chore and going at it straight for 5hours non stop can drive a person mad. especially when you have to compare and contrast 4 extremely boring, excruciatingly dry and horrifyingly never ending wordy business articles. and to top that up, you have to discuss the views of many different philosophers regarding the ethicality of the articles. all this as a 6000 word essay.

slitting my wrist is less painful than this.

so when it comes to break time, stress relieve doesnt come in the form of sipping on codine or popping in xanax and valium. but instead, camwhoring!!


introducing my group members for Business Ethics.(from left) Acacia, ME, Weiliang!


during break time, all we wanna do is just have a little fun to get away from all the projects for a little while.


projects are EXTREMELY stressful!


sometimes we do project till so late at night that when we meet up the next day, everyone looks like zombies.



but of course, nothing like a little coffee to perk everybody up! but i think the best perk-up is knowing that u have a million things to do and only a few days to the deadline.


but too much long hours infront of our laptops starts to turn you into one of them. a robot!


the stress might make you act out in a weird behaviour. do not normal things unlike other people.


like totally weird things. in public places.


but when its over, everyone breathes a sigh of relief.


projects is like constipation. you put in alot of effort trying to push the shit out. and when the shit is finally out, you let out a long and loud 'SONG AHHHHHH!'


ps: obviously, i'm more refined than that. i dont have constipation cause i eat more than 4 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. (^_^)V

top tree three

OMG!
so fast and the weekend already. will the whole world please slow down? i still got one more paper left and 14 chapters to go. i need 40hour days.

at the end of every week, i'll usually put up the top 3 songs on my playlist and here's this week's top 3.


On & On by Erykah Badu
i fell in love with erykah badu when i was in secondary school. i bought this music compilation CD, you know those kinds that have all the popular songs at the moment in one cd, and there was this song 'On & On' by Erykah Badu in it. at that moment i didnt know who she was but i kept having the song on repeat on my discman. that week i saved up enough pocket money and bought her album, Baduizm and i never cease to be a fan. her music is considered neo soul, whatever that means. all i know is rainy afternoons, a pot of earl grey tea, a magazine and erykah badu playing in the background is all i need to make my day so much better.


Freestyler by Bomfunk MC
since we're on the topic of secondary school, this was another song that i used to like then as well. i donno whether you consider this techno or rave or whatever, but this song was so cool then. i even had it as my handphone's ringtone. brings back memories man! haha! well, play this loud and dance like some crazyass in your room. so worth the embarassment! just dont do it in public.


Love, Sex & Magic by Ciara ft Justin Timberlake
finally, something mainstream and current. this song is hot and the video is hotter. ciara looks fierce and hot as well in the video. and if it does something for you, you get to see her lick justin's ear. i got nothing else to say but hot.



i know my choice of music is a little weird and eclectic. i have different moods and i like to have different songs to suit my different moods. if you guys got any nice songs to intro, hit me with your comments at my tagboard!


love
A-J

zouk with unimates

reading my blog is like reading a history textbook. all the events happened waaaay back. like for instance, about a gazillion years ago, i went to zouk with my unimates. and this is the pictorial story.


introducing xinyi, yeeling, ME, weiliang, john and daphne

there's still one more but she's taking the photo


here she is.. fungwee. i have no idea how come she look like that. notice my hands are to myself. there was no way i was involve in putting that orgasm look on her face. although i do have magic fingers. or so i've heard. *ahem*

anyway, i bet she's gonna gonna kill me and say 'fuck you ali!' when she read what i just wrote. i know she will. she's always wanted to kill me at many ocassions.


SEE! i got proof! caught in the act somemore.


now first lemme introduce to you the bunch of people i do like almost every single project in uni with!



really nice fun bunch of people who think my jokes are always lame and like to destroy my usb fan. its like apart from them, i probably like have only 3 other friends in SIM. fucked up school where everyone is damn unfriendly.

lets go through them one by one


there's fungwee who's so skinny she makes leggings look like skinny jeans.


there's john who only eats yongtaufoo for lunch and nothing else.


here's yeeling who spends her time either playing texas poker on facebook, shopping at those livejournal blogshops or in her free time, engaging in SM.


and of course, weiliang. who always books 2 aisle seats for me in the lecture hall. one for my bag and one for me. and not forgeting, totally endures my incessant whining about every random thing that passes through my mind.


anyway, the night was fun. started off with some drinks and loads of camwhoring!












tyra will be proud. make it fierce darling. fierceeeee!


john's tongue is blue in this picture. maybe he was licking xinyi's dress before this or giving doraemon a blowjob.




weiliang totally chui here!


and then fungwee said..


'ali's you've taken waaaaay too many photos already. you better stop it this minute! or else i will shove this finger up your ass!!'

now as much as i love taking photos, the thought of fungwee's finger up my ass was not exactly appealing. finger so skinny, where go shiok right?

so anyway, i was minding my own business after that, channelling sasha fierce on the dancefloor when suddenly...

i was Yuzhu-ed by a bunch of Robert Zhangs. in other words, rape, if you didnt understand the reference to The Little Nonya. joanne peh won best actress for that scene okay.

now if you've wondering why i'm still smiling although i'm being gang raped. its not because i immensely enjoyed the pleasure and warmth of having weiliang's hands wrapped around my body but instead, its because i saw a flash. its like a reflex. whenever a camera flashes, i smile. sometimes it happens during a thunderstorm too when the lightning strikes.


gang rape leader. the evil SIA air stewardess attacks!


post rape trauma. donno why but i needed a ciggarette after that.


john was like so tired after the gang rape that he dozed off on 3 occasions.


going once..


going twice..


GONE.

lol



tremendously fun night. you guys are bananas!

random rambles

first, bird flu. now, swine flu.
cant somebody just pass them some panadol cold and a packet of tissue already.


exams.exams..exams.


i need a haircut, i'm starting to look like diana ross.



time for my top 3 songs in my playlist right now.


Lykke Li - I'm Good I'm Gone
i'm a big Lykke Li fan. this is one of my favourite songs from her. if you didnt know she's from sweden (yes, there's more to sweden than just meatballs and ikea).


The Gossip - Standing In The Way Of Control
Beth Ditto is a harcore rock chick. this girl might be fatter than tyra but she brings a whole lot of energy to the stage. her songs are those type that you simply have to play it loud!


Adam Lambert - Crawl Thru Fire
i catch american idol religiously and every season i have a favourite. this season my favourite is Adam Lambert. his vocals is just MAYJAH! i hope he wins american idol!! this video might be abit awkward for some of you. it was for me, very much, but if you hear the vocals, its fantastic. lets just say adam likes to dress up and put on a performance.
oh! try not to let his shiny gold leggings distract you.

jiak kim street in the day

i just finished a paper yesterday and i don't really wanna talk about it. the lecturer gave all these tips about what's coming out for exams and none of them came out. so there i sat in the cold exam hall sweating like a fat boy at PE, with the look of 'WTF' on my face.

but you know, the teacher's not entirely to blame. i always have this wtf moments during exams. i might study hard and all and when it comes to the exams i cant seem to recall them. you know sometimes i dont study that hard so at least i can blame it on that instead of accepting the fact that i'm stupid.

maybe its just the stress. maybe its just anxiety. maybe its just my heck care attitude when it comes to doing something i dont like. i dont really know. now, all i wanna do is just get all the exams over and done with. the end is my motivation.

well, at least there is something out there that i actually like to do and its dressing up!

this post is from ages back where i met up with Azlin to go to Zouk's flea market.





personally i've never seen Zouk in daylight and soberity before so it was quite interesting. i've always thought the whole place was much bigger. anyway, no matter whether it was 2am or 2pm, zouk is still crowded. the flea market's got a lot of nice stuff at really bargain prices but most of them were meant only for girls. nothing for guys or unisex that i could buy. quite frustrating really pushing through crowds just to see another livejournal blogshop selling cheap looking clothes.

i love flea markets nonetheless cause its an exciting experience cause you never know what to expect. but maybe next time, i'll just leave the expectations at home.


what did i wear to Zouk's flea market?




oh nothing much.

light grey long sleeve shirt - Isetan
skinny jeans - Lee
cropped tweed vest - haji lane
black leather loafers - far east
black star necklace (which felicia chin personally told me its nice) - pushcart
tortoiseshell glasses - Levis


like it? too much? or wad? tell me!
