i have decided to become a vegetarian...

CRAPPINK:
today (sunday) i am having a neuroanatomy test. wish me luck (although my marks won't be counted in for my finals haih the life of a repeat student)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


... for a week!


i went out this evening and bought 80le worths of fruits and vegetables (and got into trouble with an egyptian auntie at the cashier but that's a story of another day)!

all in the new spirit for Detox Week The Pinksterz Way (aka losing some of your fats campaign wtf). i will be eating fruits and only fruits for breakfast, lunch and dinner for seven days.

let see if i can do it this time. last time i tried to but i gave up on the second day already. i succumbed to the pressure of a charbroiled burger. i have the willpower of a boiled carrot (ironically, that's what i am going to eat the whole week wtf) i tell you. -_-

anyway, keep all your fingers, toes and eyes crossed for me!

p.s. anyway the picture above is done by yours truly from scratch using photoshop totally. no bluff okay! :D faster says nice or not?

p.p.s. yea i know the apple is a bit cacat-ed because i skipped the step to draw the "stalk" because i couldn't figure out how to use the pen tool which was actually the reason why this picture was lay forgotten in the folders for months (since last august precisely)
and tonight i decided to finish it since there were only few last easy steps!

p.p.p.s. link for the tutorial? go google yourself hahahahahaha.

p.p.p.p.s. nolah. joking only. i will give you the link lah. if you are nice enough to comment wtf. *fishing for comments wtf*

p.p.p.p.p.s. but seriously, the tutorial is too easy to be found.

waiting never kills don't you know that?

CRAPPINK:
didn't i say that never to mess around with me during the finals? nah! here's the first rant for you!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


i don't bloody care if you are one of the elders in this country.

fuck the "priority given to the elder and women with small kids" policy. the point is everyone, i repeat, EVERYONE SINGLE CUSTOMER NO MATTER WHAT IS THEIR AGE queues (err... me not sure the correct spelling for this. anyone?).

so what gave you the right to simple push your trolley in front of my trolley? just because my size smaller (relatively of course) that the average locals here didn't mean i was afraid to voice out. or did i look as if i was kind and timid enough to let you go first?

you were wrong woman because you were messing with hormonal imbalanced lady (me) here! HAH!

i was the one waiting and standing for almost half an hour behind the group of lads in front of me (i think they are housemate since they were purchasing lots of household stuff) who bought two trolley full of goods and food.

i was the one being patient when there was another uncle before you came and tried to cut the line and finally moved away after i sighed loudly and said loud enough for him to hear that i had been queueing since forever. at least he gave up and decided to cut queue elsewhere.

but you...

just because you said you had five items to pay for didn't mean you can suka-suka potong the line okay. hang on, five items means you should go queue in the express lane instead. but no, when me and the auntie behind me pointed out that you should go to the express lane, you decided to say "everywhere is also the same. i am paying for five items only "

hello? fuck lah five items or not! i had been standing, unmoved for 30 minutes already!

and when we almost created a scene there, you finally decided that it didn't worth the embarassment for you and your daughter to handle and let me went first. yes, i know we should respect the others especially the elders but if you didn't want to go through the crowds never to do your grocery shopping on friday or saturday lah! sheeesh.

i don't and won't tolerate with such people no matter what's their age.

please learn to wait for your turn. it doesn't never kills.

of last thursday

CRAPPINK:
fun number fact of the day:

an update as requested by the boipren wtf

CRAPPINK:
ironically, i used to hate oldies when my mom put the casette in the radio during travelling but now?

i am the one searching all over the net for all the oldies songs i had been listening to growing up. in fact, i am so in love with oldies since 2006!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


this is an update brought to you by the kenot tahan "eeyer" feeling that is caused by those pictures in the previous posts and also the feeling of being left alone during a conversation because someone wants to go eat wtf.

hahahahahaha nolah joking only okay.

the finals are in less than two months after you minus the sleeping time, eating time, idling time, pooping time, cooking time... well you got my drift and you do know what that mean right! it means worse, crankier, bitchier, meanier pinksterz is coming on your way! be afraid now, be very, very afraid!

talk about bitchy reminds me of the mdg season 2 that has been aired for quite a period of time already. and wahlao, the girls for this sesson are damn bitchy! and super competitive can? we are only at the eighth episode and so far there have been numerous catfights and dramas already.

which is good, mind you. because more dramas means more things to be talked and bitched about. more stuff to be bitched on means more outlet for me to release my stress! and as a result you will get a happy pinksterz and a lower chance of me biting your head off!

apart from that, exam season also means i am on official leave from any cookings. but fret not because there is a saviour to save yours truly from hunger in the form of nile restaurant in the seventh district. today is my third visit there in less than 10 days! abang kaunter yang kecil dan kurus, please expect more of me in your restaurant for the next three to four month!

and right now i am having this sudden obsession with potatoes. mind you, i never felt like eating potatoes when i was in malaysia. but suddenly last week i got this sudden cravings for some mashed potato and i got it fulfilled during at tgif!

but the obsession doesn't end there. yesterday i fried some potatoes i had bought for quite sometime but never had the "urges" to cook it and had it for the whole day. imagine potatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

eh seriously i think egypt has changed me into someone unrecognisable already. last time i hate sushi but see what egypt had done to me last year! i am now a sashimi worshipper already wtf. and now potatoes!

what next?! milk?!

okay, let me tell you this story about my milk drinking (his)story!

fyi, i haven't drink milk since i was three. long story cut short, it was my mom's fault because she was trying to make me stop from drinking milk using the bottle. so her friend who happened to be our neighbour at that time told her to show me this picture which she showed her daughter to make her stop using bottle and it worked on her (the girl)! but not me haha!

you know what picture was it?

it was a picture of a goat drinking milk from the bottle. and my mom, taking her friend advice, told me that if i continued using bottle, i would grow into a goat wtf. don't laugh okay. i was only three years old with a gullible mind at that time. T__________T

but the plan backfired her hahahahaha. turned out i couldn't (and still can't) drink milk using cups. so that's how i end up with not drinking milk at all without being lactose intolerance!

but i don't mind to eat dairy products (especially cheese!) as long i dont see the milk there. and in fact i remember i still drink chocolate flavoured milk during my primary but for some unknown reason i never touch it since my high school.

mama, don't be angry ahhhh i wrote this hereeeeeee. i long time love you! muah! happy belated mother's day (it was on the 21march for egypt and i just found out today. i mean confirmed about it today. i swear i got some funny feeling yesterday okay ayat cover wtf)

hadiah? mintak dekat abah hahahaha.

p.s. yes my mom reads my blog. so stop making assumption that i am doing bad things behind her. she knows every single thing i did/do/am doing here in egypt.

gedik's gallore

CRAPPINK:
i have crossed another book from my wishlist! yay!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if i am still doing project 365 in march, this definitely the epic picture of the day (and even possibly, of the year).


because that picture worths 120 egyptian pounds. which equals to almost rm70. and the best part is, yours truly is partially guilty for that.

mr gedik was contemplating whether to get a haircut or not since his hair is getting a tad too long and i was the one that kept telling him to just go to the hair salon and get a haircut. turn out we got conned into hair cut + shampoo + styling package. and i honestly think i was the one to be blamed because i kept persuading giving motivation (being a good girlfriend mah!) to him.

but he was being nice because he said "it is okay" because "this is something for us to remember in the future" hahahahaha. yeah right, remembering paying 120LE for a hair cut is never in my life's agenda wtf.

anyway i have figured out today that both of us hate to decide (something in common ooooh) and both of us seem not to mind anything (another common thing wtf). we just love to play "ping pong" whenever the deciding game comes up wtf.

i sometimes think we are the one of the worst decision maker in the world. not in the context of choosing the wrong choice but in the context of deciding one of the choices. and it is not even any of those life saving decision making. just stupid simple decision like where to eat, where to go, what to do etc!
me: eh where to eat ah?
him: hmmm i don't mind. where do you want to eat?
me: me ah? anything also can wan.
him: up to you. i don't mind.
me: aiyah i go wherever you want to go lah.

and the above conversation will go on and on and may even extend to one hour or even more. and then even when one of us has narrowed the choices to few, we will still pingpong the task of choosing to the other person wtf.

in the end we i decided to go for tgif since it had been a while since i stepped there.


some other random shots i don't care i am so going to put because i simply love putting your funny expressions on the net hohohohoho *evil face*

this mr gedik imitating a sleepy (?) chinese!


and this mr gedik doing the rock (see i told you there is a reason why he is called mr gedik hahahahaahahaha)


this is mr gedik being a photography enthusiast.


this is mr gedik being a photography enthusiast who is unsatisfied with his picture.


by this time you should realise that yours truly is a failure when it comes to taking pictures of others because the percentage that the picture will turn out ugly/stupid/blur/funny is 78.43%. and the same also happens when anyone tries to snap my picture because i am NOT photogenic dammit.


hahahaha okaylah the last one is the normal looking picture lah :P


and no need to comment that you can actually see half of my face's reflection in the camera lens. like you can actually figure out from my cheek how i look like.

hikayat penglipu lara pink

CRAPPINK:
hikayat ini ditulis sebagai kisah jenaka rakyat tetapi berakhir sebagai kisah mak andeh yang terjun dengan labu-labunya. eh itu si luncai. silap.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


tersebutlah alkisah dahulu kala, di sebuah kampung di sebuah daerah kecil bernama keharah - atau nama modennya kaherah apabila diberpetulkan1 ejaannya - tinggalah beberapa manusia yang mempunyai super power tersembunyi.

walaupun ramai yang menghuni kampung itu, tetapi ini adalah hikayat berkenaan kisah tok guru bernama dewata ali arjuna papadom2 dan dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya2. maka janganlah kalian pedulikan alkisah lagi lima puluh tujuh ratus ribu hamba tuhan lain yang kebetulan mendiami negeri keharah itu kerna mereka hanya pelakon tambahan tak berbayar saja.

alkisahnya, terdapat seorang tok guru bernama dewata haji ali arjuna papadom ini. dikatakan tok guru ini, orangnya sangatlah bijaksana. jikalau hikayat ini dialih bahasa kepada bahasa penjajah mungkin akan digunakan istilah wise di dalam fairy tales itu.

maka dek kerana kebijaksanaannya yang tiada tandingan di kalangan manusia manusia seluruh bumi bertuah ini, beliaulah yang dilantik sebagai ketua suku kaum di daerah kecil dinamakan imarah mahligai3 dua puluh tujuh. alkisahnya mengapa dinamakan sedemikian dikatakan adalah alkisah sejarah mitos bohong4 semata-mata disebaliknya.

dek kerana kebijaksanaannya yang tiada tandingan di kalangan manusia manusia seluruh bumi bertuah ini jugalah, dikatakan beliau bijak dalam menguruskan hal urusan-urusan kewangan daerah yang diperintah beliau.

nak dijadikan cerita, alkisahnya jumlah tuntutan penggunaan elektrik yang dikenakan ke atas srikandi terhebat5 keharah, dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya, tepat dua purnama yang lalu atau dalam erti kata modennya januari mencecah hampir dua ratus lima puluh riyal emas.

perutusan berita itu tidak mampu untuk ditelan kepahitannya oleh tok guru haji ali papadom kerana adalah perkara yang sedia maklum bahawa semua manusia yang bijak menguruskan urusan kewangan negara mahupun daerah adalah memang sedikit agak bakhil.

tok guru berasa kecewa walaupun srikandi itu masih mampu bergembira dengan khabaran sedemikian yang memuramkan seluruh penghuni daerah mahligai dua puluh tujuh termasuk dengan anjing sakti peliharaan tok guru tersebut. kerna sebelum kehadiran dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya di daerah itu, dikatakan tidak pernah berlaku peristiwa segetir dan sehitam rentung hangus terbakar sedemikian.

maka dengan tekad setinggi mungkin srikandi dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya berazam untuk membuktikan pada orang-orang kampung bahawa beliau adalah lebih daripada sekadar muzik6.

maka sejak sepurnama yang lalu, srikandi dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya jauh pergi bertapa di sebuah kawasan rahsia7 untuk menguatkan jati diri dan keazaman dirinya daripada memanjakan diri dengan penggunaan unggun api untuk menjimatkan penggunaan kayu api yang harganya semakin melambung tinggi.

maka sepurnama pun berlalu begitu sahaja.

tepat malam pertama selepas sepurnama tok guru haji ali papadom datang ketemu akan dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya untuk mengkhabarkan samada srikandi itu lulus ujian kuasa kawalan penggunaan terma dan elektrik jula juli bintang tiga yang dikenal pasti sebagai punca utama kenaikan bil elektrik mahligai tersebut.

sugul wajah tok guru itu sudah mampu menggambarkan khabaran buruk yang mungkin disampaikan maka dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya berserah sahaja pada yang maha esa. apa yang terjadi terjadilah bak kata lagu kupu kupu malam nyanyian kugiran peterpan yang pernah gah di nusantara asia tenggara suatu masa dahulu.

adalah seperti biasa untuk menyampaikan khabar buruk, tok guru haji ali papadom akan memberikan mukadimah panjang dan kata-kata hikmat berunsur nasihat kepada dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya. dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya pun tunduk mendengar dengan penuh kesyahduan.

maka detik yang ditunggu-tunggu pun tiba. tuan guru pun menyampaikan hitam putih perutusan buruk itu dan dibuka sampul itu oleh dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya.

dua puluh tiga riyal emas enam puluh lima kupang perak.

melihat jumlah itu maka kegiranganlah hati dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya. dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya pun melonjak lonjak kegembiraan disambut dengan gelak tawa yang nyaring yang mampu membangkitkan seluruh kampung di negeri keharah itu.

maka dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya pun berkata, “hai tok guru! chill lah! jangan lah kedekut sangat. 23 riyal dan enam puluh lima kupang itu bukanlah boleh beli set happy meal dekat mekdonal pun. kedekut la lu!"

maka jawab tok guru kepada kata-kata dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya sambil mengetuk kepala anak murid beliau itu, “chill korok mung! buke duo pulo tigo riyal! dua ratuh tigo puloh riyal enam puloh limo kupang perak!8

nampaknya dewi adiratna merah jambu pataya masih kurang cerdik dalam mengenalpasti kehadiran titik kosong dalam nombor jawi.

1 antara contoh lawak dalaman di kalangan pelajar-pelajar di mesir kerana warga mesir menyebut P sebagai B.

2 identiti sebenar terpaksa dirahsiakan untuk melindungi mereka daripada buruan pihak paparazi mesir. tetapi sebenarnya saja mengada nak guna nama panjang-panjang supaya hikayat menjadi panjang. tetapi nama 'pataya' itu adalah sempena menu makan tengah hari isnin lalu di restoran bangkok abbasia. amat rambang haha.

3 adalah dimaklumkan bahawa penulis ini gemar menggunakan teknik penceritaan hyperbola. namun ada juga sumber menyatakan bahawa si penglipurlara memiliki unsur unsur bajet dalam dirinya.

4 diceritakan bahawa ada dua puluh tujuh jenis lautan berbagai warna dan tona yang begitu indah. tetapi dikatakan bahawa sejarah itu adalah sebuah kisah bohong semata-mata. namun tiada sesiapa mampu mengatakan itu bohong semata kerana semua orang inginkan hikayat ini menjadi lebih panjang seperti mana hikayat-hikayat lain supaya dapat membosankan calon-calon peperiksaan lulus maahad pondok (tinggi) yang terpaksa memahami dan membaca buku antologi sastera seperti yang diwajibkan oleh pihak kerajaan pendidikan. maka untuk menutup pembohongan ini dikatakan penghuni daerah itu tidak mampu untuk membuktikan terdapat dua puluh tujuh warna kerana pada waktu itu mereka hanya mengetahui adanya kotak imej bergerak hitam putih untuk sumber menghiburkan hati selain tarian gelek gadis gadis sunti yang separa jelita.

5 pengetahuan am yang wajib diketahui oleh semua warga bumi (sila rujuk 3)

6 iklan wtf

7 haha tipu je (sila rujuk 3)

8 tiada niat mempermainkan warga kelantan atau yang sewaktu dengannya dengan cubaan ayat broken kelantan itu. persoalannya di sini, mungkinkah tok guru itu berasal dari kelate atau sering bergaul dengan sek-sek kelate? jeng jeng jeng.
emas merujuk pada genih/ringgit. perak merujuk pada kursy/sen.

pinksterz pwned her "worshiper" again!

CRAPPINK:
new challenge of the month:
to finish revise everything by the end of march in preparation for the coming finals.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


remember this? well here is another one!

was chatting to mr gedik on msn (which is a rare case since he rarely gets wifi nowadays!) and when he greeted me after finished rebooting his notebook i decided to play cheeky. :P

kamonnnnn kamonnnnnn hahahahahahaha

now who says being a faithful customer to fast food delivery service has no benefit?

++edited on 9 march 2009 at 9.29pm++

okay okay since some told me they couldn't understand what's so funny here/ didn't get the joke (my bad because i didn't give you the translation or the main point here hahaha sorry!) so here goes:

i first decided to be cheeky to him by pretending to be the automatic answering voice whenever we call a company or food delivery service in egypt. so there are always two choices for language; english or arabic.

but he thought he could outsmart me by choosing arabic "press wahid" (which means press one) because i am bad in speaking and writing and understanding it.

sooooo i die die dowan to lose to him mar i used google translator and translate "to order press one, to speak to our operator press two" into arabic hence the arabic written message which i copy-pasted! :P

that's the story basically. ;)

it's getting hawt in here

CRAPPINK:
where are you?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


you know you are extremely bored when you decided to cut out random letters out of color papers and stick them on top of your bed and realised it spelt "sweet dream" with a cute pink rabbits sticker in the middle of it.

that's how the wall on top of my bed looks like right now. my bedroom is turning into a children nursery. :|

anywayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..

today has been a freaking long day. i was spending the evening finishing the nanny diaries which i had been reading since the last week of the winter break and when i finally finished it, it was only 8.50pm wtf i thought it is already almost 11pm or something! either the time moves too slow for my own good because the finals it just around the corner you know. slower time movement means there will be more time for me so i can study more.

or i have turned into some sort of speed reader by magic.

speaking about finals, the timetable is out already and bad news to those who have been asking me when i am going to return to malaysia this year because the latest i can be in malaysia in by the end of the first week of freaking august. the whole thing only ends in the mid july so there will be another two weeks (i hope) before the results officially come out and i am not going to risk by going back to malaysia early even though i am going to finish my exams waaaaay earlier than most of the second year students as i am taking three subjects only this year and surprise! surprise! dr taher decided to put psychology as the last subject for this finals.

so the latest we can all meet again is in august people keep on missing me yea? :P

damn, i am craving for an ice cream right now. something like the mcd's chocolate sundae or maybe a fruity sorbet because i don't know about others lah but it feels as if the summer is already here. but then it might be my lapisan lemak seperti polar bearTM1 because i could tahan the winter peak with casual outfit which actually spells casual t-shirt and jeans occasionally with a sweater. i think i am going to suffer when the summer is really here.

oh now i remember something! remember my book wishlist i wrote last time? i managed to cross two from the whole list last february already *jumps around*


and there is also cecelia ahern's the gift spotted last week in virgin but i am yet to get it due to:

  • 1. money factor.
  • 2. there are few other books in lines waiting to be read.

the only thing that makes me itchy to buy it right now is because of its edition! it's the christmas hardcover edition with a super nice silver cover and wrapped with a nice red ribbons. T________T but it gonna cost me more than 100 bucks so better not or else i will be eating timun with cheese for the whole month.

currently i have a newfound obsession for a certain gadget which is not to be mentioned here. but it gonna cost me a bomb3.

p.s. damn this number reference thingy is addictive because it is way better than using brackets!

1 TM-ed because in case someone's decided to become another kucing kopi again heh
2 because mana tahu itu kucing kopi (its copycat or by kiah's word, cetak meow hahahaha) mahu tiru again, biasalah, i kan celebrity, semua taste i, style i semua orang nak ikut *flips hair with diva attitude wtf*

by my standard of a non-working student of course

instructions:

1. Open wikipedia random articles link *click* The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band. alternatively, if the first article you hit is short, hit Random Article two more times.

2. Open this link *click* The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3. Open this link *click* Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Use photoshop/paint or similar to put it all together.

5. Post it to FB with "My Debut Album" in the "caption" and TAG the friends you want to join in.

so, presenting My Debut Album cover:

nice or not?

obviously, my psychedelic (non-existant) band consists of (non-existant) rock chicks. only.
