Happy <3

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

Finally got myself a new phone after months of contemplating about which brand/model to buy, etc. Was initially looking forward to the Sony Ericsson Vivaz Pro even before it was released in Malaysia! And the Samsung Omnia II. I really liked that gadget. But I figured that a touch screen would wear out after a short while, alignment run yada yada.

And I must say, I don’t even know if I’ll be happy with this one! But we’ll just wait and see. <3

I am Fumed

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Just configured Windows Live Writer on my lappy. Speaking of which, I was almost suicidal last Saturday.

You see, we had a MAJOR (as in 45% of the whole course major!!) PR assignment which was due Monday and on Saturday when I tried to switch my lappy on it kept rebooting by itself. I thought I was screwed. Seriously. I tried everything. And cried and my mom scolded me for crying over that.

But but but .. God was on my side! Brought my lappy to Low Yat and attempted to walk around again trying to be smart looking for a place to fix it. So, ended up at this really deep alley I cannot even remember where, and YEAY. The computer fixer told me that HE WAS ABLE TO BACK UP ALL MY FILES!! He told me my lappy had hardware problem.

Yes, I got my assignment back and my photos and my music (which I cannot live without).

And I am now on Windows7! Okay, no big deal, I didn’t get what the hype was all about when it was just released. Maybe I upgraded from Vista so there’s not really much a difference.

AND GUESS HOW MUCH IT COST ME?!

RM80. CB. Damn kao not worth it. Never sending to fix again, I’ll get friends to do it for me. =.=

I CAME HOME AND REALISED THERE WAS NO SOUND. So on Sunday I went there again and the guy told me HE FORGOT TO INSTALL THE SOUND DRIVER!! He think I got that much time ah?! IDIOT!!

The Annoying Twitter Setting/ CNY Update

Video shooting @ Lyon’s house a month ago!

I’m so sorry about the thing that keeps popping up every time you visit my blog! But, heheh, I have no idea how to stop it from functioning. Would appreciate it if any of you would tell me how! Thanks. :)

For the past two days, I’ve been at home! Playing cards, cooking, lazing around and annoying my brothers, hahah. It feels soooo good cause I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT! Not college, not NOTHING! :D

Oh oh, I MUST specify about the dinner we had today!

I marinated salmon fillets with my own mixture of stuff. Secret ingredient, tsk tsk. OHMYGOD, it tasted damn goood! Even Dad was satisfied. Heheh. Mom baked chicken with oregano and mixed spice! AWESOME! We had it with a bottle of Chardonnay! I had so much till my face was totally inflamed. =X

Too bad I didn’t take any photos! My hands still smell of garlic! Hate it hate it hate it.

OH, I totally forgot to pay for my blog domain and they’re threatening to shut down my blog! :( . And the bank isn’t open. OMG, panicking like crazy.

Brand New (Not Really)

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

Follow me on twitter, HERE. :)

I finally succumbed to the twitter craze, influenced by Joan Kong and Vanessa Lim. And everyone else who keeps asking ‘Carmen, why don’t you have twitter?!’ Pft.

Spent the day studying and fixing widgets on my blog. RSS feed since many of you complained that you can’t subscribe + a proper photo of myself + the twitter widget.

It looks so easy to do but Wordpress is NOTHING like Blogger! In Blogger you could just click ‘ADD’ and insert your photos and stuff. But for Wordpress I have to insert the HTML codes all by my poor self, sigh.

Feels very messy now though. Oh well.

Valentine’s event at church tomorrow! Sam took my rose, huhuh.

Refreshed!

The brother. :)

I’m happy! Video assignments are done for good. Like, finally. After sleepless nights of worrying about whether we can finish them up in time before the presentation day (today).

Came home, had dinner, went to nap at 6.30p.m. A bad nightmare woke me up at about 8. Then I went back to nap till 10p.m.

OOOOOOPS, now I can’t sleep. =/

It’s okay, gonna be backing up my files anyway. After what Joan said about hard disks crashing. Scared me to death! My WHOLE LIFE is in it. Photos from 1839489 years ago, my music collection!

Sigh, one of my hard disks is not functioning now cause it fell onto the ground the other day. If it cannot be fixed, I’m going to cry so bad. My files, the horror.

Sorry

1. The Nanny

nanny

I watch this EVERY single night from 12a.m till 1a.m on Hallmark. Back 2 back baybeh! MY FAVOURITE! I love the Nanny and Niles (the butler). And OMG, her voice! It’s fun, twisted and never fails to make me laugh! Every single episode is a new surprise. I can even memorize the introduction song! @___@

“She had style, she had flare, she was there .. that’s how she became the Naannnyyy!”

2. Anything with Jamie Oliver in it

JamieOliver400x401

HAHA, I absolutely love him! You can watch him everyday on AFC at 11p.m on The Naked Chef. I love love his culinary shows! I like cooking so, learn a lot from them, and hah, he is annoyingly CUTE! :D

3. E! News

eentertainmenttelevisiojx0

Cannot. Miss. This!! Screened twice a day on E! :D . My source for goss bout celebs!

4. MTV and Channel [V]

673px-MTV-Logo_svg Channel%20V%20logo

Music videos are a MUST in everyday life, hurrah! And I love some shows on MTV such as Pimp My Ride. I love Digity Dave, hehe! Anything on MTV is bad influence, LOL but they’re awesome and entertaining! I think Parental Control is the stupidest show ever!! Its total bullshit. What I love on Channel [V] : All the Next Top Model series (Canada, Australia, America), even though they keep repeating, my favourite would be Australia’s! The girls always have cat fights = always fun to watch, LOL.

Yeay 8TV is airing GG Season 2, although I watched it already. =/

Go Red!

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Ok so you know I painted my room red right? This is the mess before everything started.

img_3427

Yellow!

img_3439

The mess when I trashed my brother’s room. Hehe. Had to borrow his room to dump all my stuff.

Behold the red!

img_3558

That’s exactly how red it is, no PS! :P

img_3559

My new bed! :P . I chose the divan type so that it wouldn’t break so easily. Lol. See the pink wall?

I now have 2 red walls and 2 really light pink walls. Supposed to be contrasting, but the pink is a little too light for me. Haha.

Oh well. Love the red! :)

And I love how my new bed is stuck to the corner of my room, feels more secure and cozy!

Polaroid Me

Monday, March 16th, 2009

I so want this. :(

p-2

Especially the really vintage ones. I love vintage stuff.

The camera is not a problem for me. The ones available in Malaysia are dead cheap. You can get one at less than RM200.

But the film alone can kill you. 20 photo sheets (Polaroid600 film, the usual brand, large size) will cost you around RM85 - RM110. What the. :(

RM110 divided by 20 is .. around RM5 point something per picture. @_____@

Do you guys know that I carry 2 cameras everywhere I go?

My Sanyo digital and the Canon S5.

You’ll never know which one fits the surroundings best!! So I carry two just in case, LOL.

Ali made me like the LUMIX too, they collaborated with LEICA, so you’ll definitely be assured with the best quality pictures!!

Having a LEICA is so coool. :P

Know what I love best about manual cameras? The shutter sound. :P

First Driving Lesson

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

GOSH, driving is seriously hard!

First of all, the steering wheel is effin heavy!

Cause manual cars have no power steering (I don’t even know what it means) and by the time I turn the whole wheel, my arms are already tired. Maybe auto cars are different, but manual cars suck. Maybe I’m not used to it yet la. Grrr.

Secondly, I’m not used to the “clutch then gear” thing. I tend to enter the gear without the clutch = gear didn’t work. LOL. And the uncle got so annoyed with me I was scared for a moment. I thought he was gonna scream at me.

Next, I was so focused on driving the RIGHT WAY I didn’t even know where I was going. The uncle just lead me.

I HATE THE CLUTCH. Let go too fast and then pooof. Engine goes off. I had to restart the engine 194029234320 times. Uncountable. Another thing that makes the uncle go pissy.

Oh, we were at the simpang empat road. Then the traffic light turned green, which means my turn to go la. So I drove. Then, all of a sudden, there was this motorbike that came from another junction. I got the shock of my life! OMGG. Stupid fella wanted to oppose his RED LIGHT. I screamed cause I panicked la. Luckily the uncle braked for me in time, if not I would have knocked into him and he might have died. O.O . Gosshhh.

I got multiple honks from other drivers. =.= . And also some people who stared at me cause I drove too sucky on the road maybe. Okay, not maybe. I WAS sucky.

Oh, I did the emergency brake a few times and got scolded, he claimed that other cars might have knocked us from behind. Grr.

What never crossed my mind was to look at the rear view mirror and the side mirrors, hehe.

p/s: Driving? NOT EASY (for first timers).

:(
