walaupun tidak ada satu titik arak yang ditelani saya dan tidak ada mana-mana peraturan jalan raya yang dilanggari, namun keluarlah perasaan gelabah terpendam dan lutut saya bergetar semasa memandu whoopeewee (nasib baik kereta saya transmisi auto).

pihak polis memberi signal untuk berhentikan kereta lalu mempersoalkan saya tentang beberapa perkara (iaitu: dari mana, ke mana dll). rasanya, saya menjawab dalam suara yang penuh kesopanan dengan muka perempuan ayu asli, kerana polis itu pun senyum dengan menyuruh saya balik ke rumah.

hairannya saya dengan kelakuan sendiri. kenapa la saya rasa takut dengan ahli-ahli pihak berkuasa?

i signed up and logged on to posonline only to get this error message of a thousand deaths and a million bo-wafting account executives:

Your vehicle data do not exist in JPJ system. Please visit the nearest JPJ branch to check status of your cash rebate.

so i had to find out when the fuck i could get my rebate. ended up at mycen and homaigod…

Phase 2:

Eligible Malaysian vehicle owners who purchase or renew their road tax from 1st June 2008 till 31st March 2009 can claim at post offices nationwide from 1st July 2008 onwards.

argh!

and now, i have one.

though it boasts a new multiple exposure switch and ISO 800 and 1600,  it sacrifices manual exposure settings and explains it away, reverse psychology style: the LC-A+ is a 100% automatic exposure dream machine.

*guffaws hysterically*

damn copywriters must have had a field day.

i’ve already locked and loaded the baby, but i haven’t named her. i feel obligated to my chromosomes to bestow handles on my inanimate posessions, which never really quite works out since i still call my guitar “guitar” and my car has been christened “whoopeewhee” not by me but by baby. maybe i’ll name her Holga for irony’s sake. (and before any of you get on my ass, yes, i know i’ve applied the word ‘irony’ wrongly by its more common although incorrect usage. bite me.)

i’ve already snapped photos of my brothers (S, M and XL), my mama, my doggie and my neighbour’s german shepherd. true story, this.

i’m thinking of more things to take in my home since it came bundled with 2 rolls of film (ISO 100, boo!) and i have to finish all 36 shots before i get to see any of them. my resolution shall be to shoot many many many photos. in fact, i’m so gungho now, i’ll develop the rolls gathering dust in various corners of my room.

so i turned a year older some time last week. it always seems a little preposterous that this day is supposed to be some climax/culmination of a whole year’s worth of personal and professional growth. i didn’t feel particularly grown-up last week as compared to the previous 364 days. and after my midnight antics, i felt anything but wiser. :p

i think 2008 was awesome. new friends. new job. new horizons and the like. my life is quiet and boring for the most part, and i like it that way seeing as how i’m no longer the hard-nosed evil bitch (if i ever was, thanks to random chinese whispers).

i like growing up. strangely enough i was always hankering to be “grown up”.

when i was 15, i thought ma should lighten up on her cufew because i was old enough. at 18 i wanted to move out and live life without parental restrictions because i was mature enough. i looked down my nose at 19-year-old “kids” when i graduated from college. i was such a child i imagined i was older, better, smarter, wiser than everyone else. it’s a trend that will live on; a belief that living a couple of decades entitles young ‘uns to faux world-weariness and to spout badly-written diatribes about how jaded and cynical life has made them.

me, i’ve realised how much more there is for me to experience (and if i’m lucky, to learn). i haven’t eaten enough salt to whine about how bad life is and how it’s gotten me down.

i’m 25 now and i’m still just a kid. a label that’s hopefully still good for a long time more. like you said, age is just a number, right, sayang? xxx

祝2009年 心想事成

but hello, “hoping your wishes come true in 2009″ is a bit rudimentary, dahling.

You were a child
Crawling on your knees toward it
Making momma so proud
But your voice was too loud
We like to watch you laughing
Picking insects off of plants
No time to think of consequences

Control yourself
Take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself
Take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted

The water is warm
But it’s sending me shivers
A baby is born
Crying out for attention
The memories fade
Like looking through a … fogged mirror
Decision to decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn’t hurt a lot
I guess not

Control yourself
Take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself
Take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted

in a relationship doesn’t say enough.
but miserable in a relationship does.

single is an unqualified statement
but sluttily single or uninterestedly single or desperately single will help send out the right signals.

B&A would be blissfully in a relationship

A&J would be comfortably complicated

K&W would be in denial accidentally in a relationship

heh. hope no one kills me for this.

am quite surprised people still use their “blog names” for events. like “oh, am i supposed to not riducule your stupid name?” yeah, i know who you are, but i refuse to acknowledge it!

:D

because they chafe. like hell.

mmmm… cherry frog!

hi, my name is justine. and i have diva moments every time i’m in the vicinity of the one and only true queen - baby zulkiflie.

not only is she stylish, trendy, cute, excitable, hot and sexy, she is also a super bad-ass.

when we head out for lapsap (her favourite night) she cares not for the peons and minions, she only cares about 1) dancing backwards 2) diva poses and 3) xu

clubbing with her makes me feel like a diva by proxy.

do not get in the way of her backwards dance. you will regret it.

all hail the diva pout

this is the Ultimate Diva Pose ™ which is usually done just before the Iron Death Grip© (and if you do not deem her worthy enough as a Diva, she will use it on you).

kthnkxbai!

i think i just found the most awesome video in the world ever.

it’s yasunori mitsuda, nobuyoshi sano (tekken 5 sound designer), and michio okamiya (guitarist from final fantasy cover band) in the electronic “band” - the Trio DS-10 - performing “scars of time” from chrono cross on the ds with the korg-10 software.

did you read that right?
