Friendship - part two
This post is relate to the girl's second imaginary bf. Don't get confuse with her first imaginary bf, they are totally difference person.

She called and sounded very very happy (unusual for me), so I asked, what'd happened to you? She replied, didn't CE (one of our friends) tell you something? I said, No. She said, I will tell you later when I go to your house.

She arrived after half and hour while I was online chatting with friends. She didn't say anything at first but keep on smiling. I didn't notice that because I was sitting in the position that my back was facing her. So she laughed louder (to get my attention I supposed), I turned back to look at her and asked, why are you keep on laughing alone? She didn't say anything but kept on laughing. Then I remembered she wanted to tell me something, so I asked, I thought you going to tell me something?

After a few convincing, she told me that she is officially pak-tor with this guy, KH. Okie, my first reaction was, oohhh ok, no wonder you look so happy today. (she really looks very happy + excited + high on that particular day).

Days after that was tough for me to accept now, to accept all the beutiful lies she had created for herself and her relationship. Whenever I think of the day she came to tell me she's in love, the happy look and the excited expression, I can't think of another way to describe her except for having a serious mental problem.

This actually happened a month (or less than that) before our SPM examination. We used to go to school every night to do our revision. So most of their pak-tor place was in school studying together. I can't really remember is there any typical story on those moment, but there is a few after our SPM.

After SPM, we had prom night at Renaisance Hotel. Few day before the prom night, we were discussing how are we going to the prom night. So she said she will be going with this guy, and darlinn will come and fetch me. A day before the prom night, She told me CE is following the guy to prom night as well. So I teased her, by saying that, ohh poor girl, cannot tian-mi-mi in the car anymore, cause there will be a sportlight in the car with you. She replied, ya-lorr, she is really a sportlight, I can't reject her since she had no one to fetch her. (I really thought they are in love that time)

Okie, and then during the prom night, this is the lie she made not only to me but to everyone (our friends). I started to tease her first and others continued, we were asking how was your preparation before the prom and is there anything special happened between her bf and herself. She started to feel proud of having a bf and create all the story behind the screen. If she hasn't create this beutiful lies infront of all our mates, I think no one will believe me on her relationship with this guy. I don't think she tells anyone before about this guy except me.

She describe to us how she had to help the guy to dress up. She need to prepare the tie for the guy, ....... *this part is hard to describe in English as I have a limited vocab*
我必需帮他绑 tie, 你懂他有多高啦，一下绑太长，一下又太短，绑一个 tie 都要很久了，过后要帮他穿上去的时候更惨，我还要踏上凳子，因为他真的太高了！

Whenever I tell people about this, they will said, ya ya we were there when she said that. Ok, enough to proove that I never tell any single thing to lower her reputation.

Few days before Christmas 2004, we went to KL together, this girl, KH, another guy and myself to celeebrate christmas together. This girl and myself stayed in my mom's friend, Lisa's house. During our visit in KL, Lisa becomes our tour guide, she brought us (4 of us) around when she's free, or dropped us in any shopping complex when she had something to be done. Before she met with the other 2 guys, I've told her to notice one of the tallest guy was this girl's bf. So when she met with this guy, she kept teasing this girl with her so-called ex-bf, (Lisa is an easy-going person, she made lot of jokes on two of them), she even said this to me, 一个是他的久爱，另一个是你的新欢啦！(because there was two guy, so one is her ex and another is for me), she made this joke infront the guys, and the guys just kept smiling without reply a single word. I assumed that they were shy to say a word by that moment, but after 2 months only I realised the truth is two of them don't know what were we joking about, because they never been together. This guy, KH, to my surprise, hate her so much.

Funny things happened after KH knows the truth, he became really scare of this girl, avoiding her all the time when they met. I got to know that on the day our SPM result was released, they met again in school. This girl asked KH whether he drive to school, because she wants to "tumpang" his car back home, and KH replied, No, immediately when he did drove car on that day. After KH received his result, he straight away run out from school and cabut-diri, so scare to meet this girl again.

Until now, I still don't understand why is she creating so much lie to me, or to her friends? What's the point? She needs attention? She wants care? But isn't that stupid enough to pick a guy to make lie on when the guy is my friend as well? She should has know that we will find out the truth one day. Few more imaginary bf to come.

This morning, darlinn received a christmas present from santa claus I guess, haha. When he woke up to prepare himself for lectures, he noticed there is a parcel on the table, his name and address was written on the parcel. So he opened it and had a really big surprise, guess what is inside?

It was a nokia N93 handset. Woowwww ... Isn't it come from santa for his christmas present? I know it is abit too early to receive christmas present, but I don't care, I call it christmas present for him, because I think it it something like christmas, where those kids wake up early in the morning and find some presents outside their room door on christmas day, or maybe in the really huge sock hanging by the window :p

If you believe me that it is from santa, then you really as childish as me, haha.!

Two or three weeks ago, darlinn saw a handset contract from one of the online website, it is really really really cheap deal on this particular phone, so he just simply apply for it. But he got an email replied saying that the phone had out of stock. So ok, fine, he thought this will be better since it will help him to save up his money. Until this morning, he received the phone from the service provider .......

I was testing on the camera, and took this photo for fun, haha.

Today I went to play badminton with my housemates, first time to do sport seen ages, I never do sports for like 5 years?? I do enjoy today's badminton with them, found that it wasn't that bad. I am suffering from muscle pain now actually. I felt tired after 15mins of playing, really memalukan, isn't it? But I played for like more than an hour in total. That's why I have muscle-ache now. Tomorrow will be better or worst???

Friendship - part one
其实我很早很早就很想把这个朋友的故事写出来，跟大家分想一下原来这世界上是有着这么一个“变态”的人，也可以说是有点神经病的。

我会分阶段来写，因为故事真的太长了！其实不算是故事，而是真人真事！

熟悉她的人或许会知道这其中的一小段。

＊中文真的很难写，我还是用英文好了！＊

I wanted to type it in chinese, so that i can express better, but my 'han yu pin yin' quite bad, and when I got the right han yu pin yin, I've forgot most of the words in the sentence that I'm going to write. Sien!!!! Hope you will understand what I'm trying to write in English.

Okie, this friend of mine really can make up a lot of story, and she acted in a way that everyone definately will believe what she said. But she never knows that no matter how good the lies is, there will be a day that people around her will break the lies.

She told everyone that she has a bf, which is one year elder than us (means her so-called bf was in form5 while we were in form4). Tell us how good he had treated her and how much they were in love. (this part is well-known by all her mates, so I think I will just tell the one that nobody knows). The things I am going to tell will sounds common or not a big deal for a couple, but imagine they were not couple, the guy never likes her before.

One day, two of them went camping together with other scout members, she told me that this guy actually wanted to go into her tent to chit-chat with her, she was so scare that he will has further action so rejected, and at last they laid down on the ground chit-chating while looking up to the sky counting the stars (it is something like what we see in movie that couple usually do at night). Then the second night, she was so scare to stay in the tent alone because she scare the same thing will happen and she doesn't know how to reject. (ueekkk, feel like going to puke now :p)

There is another story with the same guy, this time they had broken up. One day, when she was doing something (I can't remember what she did) in Scout's room, then this guy went in (she was alone that time), and play a song to her with his guitar. The title of the song is 戴佩妮－怎样，(for those who never listen to this song, or had forgotten the lyric, here it is: 如果我们现在还在一起会是怎样，我们是不是还是深爱着对方，像开始时那样，握着手就算天快要亮了。。。）and she didn't know what to do, so ran out of the room leaving the guy alone. Good imagination isn't it? I seriously don't know this song until she told me this story, and I started to pay attention on its lyric, then I only get what she meant to me.

I can't remember how they got back together in the end, maybe after several thousand times of 要求. I wish she had told me that the guy actually knee down to her and ask her to come back to his side, then that will make my story more attractive. Then the guy graduated from secondary school and further his study somewhere in KL, so they can't meet everyday like they usually do. During any festive season, like Valentine's Day, her birthday, or when they quarrelled, then there will be problem for us (me and another frined of mine, let's address him KS, a guy). We received text messages from this guy (her bf) which ask us if we can go to Wee Garden (fluorist store in KB) to collect the whole bunch of roses and deliver to her house. Not once, nor twice, it was many times until the roses acumulated in her room is soo sooo soooo many, you can't imagine how many is that unless you've seen it by yourself. Imagine, we have no car by that time, KS need to ask help from his friend, where KS "drive" motorcycle and his friend holding a bunch of roses at the back driving from the fluorist store to her house, to a girl who is not their gf. How shameful was that?

Let think if the guy really ordered roses for her from Wee Garden, he should know that Wee Garden do provide delivery service, why he can't ask the staffs there to deliver the roses staright to her house by paying extra few bucks, since he had paid so much for the roses. 12 stalks of rose, you know how much it cost during Valentine's Day. Weird. But we didn't say anything since people actually opened their mouth and asked for help, how can we reject?

During her birthday, we'd received a text message which asked us to buy her her favourite lychee cake and celebrate with her at 12am. Oh gosh, now I've knew everything and reflect the situation back in my mind, how can a person send a text message by using other people's name to ask her friends to get her favourite cake for her birthday celebration?

There is another case where I just knew it from darlinn when we were talking about this girl among our housemates. Before me and darlinn get together years ago, darlinn actually asked this girl before whether what I like and dislike, so that he can make a move to get me. I was so shock that she actually said this to darlinn. I can't remember how she phrase it, but it is something that ask darlinn to do the ways how her so-called bf treated her. OMG, you don't even have a bf, or you'd have an imaginary bf and you started to teach other how to attract girl?

Here come the serious problems occurred between our friendship (me and this girl).

There was a day where she came to my house to do some revision before our SPM BM Lisan exam, it was saturday (I seriously remembered the day and time clearly in my mind) afternoon, we were studying together in my room and then we both felt hunger so we left the house to go to KFC, which is just just at the back of my house. We walked there, had our KFC chicken, then went back home. I used my key to open the door, and we both get into the house, by the time we want to leave the house to go for tuition (it was add math tuition at Cheng's house, 4pm), I lost my key. Initially I thought I put somewhere that I can't seen by a glance, and we were in a hurry as we were late, so I just ignore it and went off. But the key didn't appear after few days, and weeks and months.

There was one night that I slept quite early and left my mobile phone charging in the living room. The next morning I realised I got a few missed calls and a text messages. It is something like this: "I found your house key in my friend's house. Please explaine to me how and when did you two meet? What did you all do together." It sounds very fierce to me. But i just ignore, thinking that the friend she mentioned is KS, where I always follow her to KS house, so if the key left there then it won't be a big deal. But it turned out to be my key was found in her imaginary bf house. I never meet the guy before (I know who is he but we never talk to each other before), never contact him before, other than sending a few text messages when he need help to deliver stuffs.

When I arrived in class, she just walked to me and throw my key on my desk while starring at me with a fierce look then left. I was shock. I didn't know what happened at all. As usual, I left school after my chemistry class (that time was really close to SPM, so I will only go to school for certain subjects only), and she kept spreading to others that I actually want to go back and "pakat" with the guy (her imaginary bf) how to lie to her. She thought that I'd have 见不得光的感情 with her imaginary bf, and I left my key in his house when we met silently. WTF.!! Okie, fine, I don't want to quarrel, up to you if you want to spread the story to the whole world. but I really feel so sad during that period, all because I treat her as my close friend but she treated me with this nonsense.

Started from that day, I received a lot of message from this imaginary bf asking me about this lost-key case. I did replied him for the questions he asked. But after few days, I can't stand anymore for being treated so badly, I sent a text message to KS to ask whether he knows what's going on between us and tell him this guy actually contacted me, and his first and very fast replied to me was, do not reply any of this guy text messages. Then told me everything he discovered from this guy's text messages. It was actually the girl herself who type all the messages and sent out pretending she is the guy.

After almost one and a half year of imaginary relationship with this guy, they "officially" broke up. I can't remember when, where a few friends of mine which is close to this guy (her bf) actually asked the guy whether is it true that they actually being together. Okie, everything is clear when the guy replied was NO.! He never likes her before and all that is just a lie.

I really 佩服 her for creating so much story by herself, acting like she really falls in love, buying flowersSSSSS and giftssss for herself, but in the end there is no relationship at all. Until today I still cannot accept that actually she bought all the roses by herself and told everyone that she rceived roses from her love one. *puke*

I hate one of my friend now, she is actually my coursemate, sitting close to me in the lecture theater. Her characteristic is really piss me off. Although she sit really close to me during the lectures, but I seldom talk to her nowadays.

Imagine, she wants to borrow a pants and t-shirt from me, and she called up, ask me to bring it out for her, to somewhere like 3 mins walking distance away from my house. The distance is not the matter, but come on, you want to borrow something from me, shouldn't you come over to collect it from me? Okie, that was the first time, I can forgive her, and I brought it out for her.

One day, she sent a message for me through MSN:
she: Are you guys going to celebrate XXX's birthday on this coming Sunday?
me: We are not sure yet, is either Saturday or Sunday, but haven't confirm yet. Why?
she: Coz a few friends of mine and myself are going to celebrate on Sunday as well, can you guys change your plan ar?
Waasehh ... What the hell is this? you want to celebrate the birthday and I have to change my plan? Who are you? In the end we celebrated it on Saturday, and of coz not because of her.!

Then, there is another day when we were having 30mins break in between the lectures, she was in the cafeteria while I was in the lecture theater. She called, and said, can you please bring my wallet for me now? I am in the cafeteria. Again, who the hell are you? Can't you just walk in to the theater and take it by yourself?

Okie, back to the pants and t-shirt I borrowed her, it was like a month ago, or more than that. Until today, she hasn't return it back to me yet. I'd asked from her like a week ago, and know what she replied?
me: Can you please return my pant and shirt to me by tomorrow?
she: Tomorrow?? Can it be on Thursday?
Come on. I felt like going to faint. What kind of person is this? You borrowed something from me, until more than a month but still haven't return it back to me, when I asked from you, you still want to delay it. Ok fine, and I replied ok. Obviously after a week she still holding it like it is belongs to hers.

Won't she feel ashame of holding other's belonging for so long? Even after the owner asked for it. Maybe it doesn't matter for her, but I feel so paiseh to ask from her again. I actually borrowed the pants from Juliet and until today I still haven't return it back to her.

Nobody likes her anyway, all because of her attitude. Why am I so lucky to have such a friend?

This one is alot better than one of my friends back in KB. That's really a long long story of hers. Wish I can blog it out one day, but it really takes time.

When I am walking alone on the street, I will have all kinds of thought, from meeting my old old friends (from KB) half way on the street, seeing someone really handsome or being snatch by stranger, or how if there were a strong wind blowing toward me, or how if it were to rain?

Yesterday when I was walking home from library, around 7pm, it was very dark as if it is 10pm in Malaysia (now we are having a short day with long night) and it was very cold as well, maybe 5 degree? or below. So I was thinking how nice if I can sit down in Starbucks to have a hot chocolate in a warm environment. (Laine, after the starbucks in Glasgow, I am always thinking of going there to have a tasty hot choc again in Cardiff, but no chance.)

But it was already 7pm, Starbucks shut at 6pm, so just forget about it, keep on walking back home lonely. I can't stop thinking of Starbucks hot chocolate at that moment, till night. Then I asked darling if he wants to join me for a hot choc at Starbucks tomorrow (means today) after my lecture at 3pm.

Then we headed to Starbucks in the city center after our lectures. hehe. Finally I have got the chance to go there for the second time since I came to UK. Sit there enjoying my hot chocolate with darling, chit-chatting while looking out from the clear glass at the busy city centre. Life is simply perfect if I were to sit there everyday enjoying the hot chocolate and by looking at people shop along the city area.

After the hot chocolate, darling have to go to a career talk at 5pm, so he left before 5pm. I was alone shopping in the street. Feel good. This is my first time to shop alone. Yeah, and I can feel the freedom of shopping alone. I can go to whichever store I like, shop there as long as I like, trying on all the clothes without buying anyone of them (if darling were there, he will nag on me). At last I bought myself some tops from GAP and ZARA. Satisfy.

Okie, need to get back to my work now. Enjoyed too much already. Time to work hard now.!

Well, it is time for me to re-type the previous entry on Guy Fawkes Night in the UK, or it is more commonly known as Bonfire Night and Fireworks Night. It celebrates the failure of the Gunpowder Plot, in which a group of Catholic conspirators, led by one Robert Catesby, and including Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in Westminster on the evening of 5 November 1605, when the Protestant King James I (James VI of Scotland) was within its walls.

"Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The Gunpowder, Treason and Plot.
I see no reason why the gunpowder treason
should ever be forgot."

That is one of the traditional and popular rhymes associated with the Guy Fawkes Night.

Every year on the 5th of November, the anniversary of Gunpowder Plot, Guy Fawkes is remembered. Throughout England, towns and villages light huge bonfires, let off magnificent fireworks, burn an effigy (a homemade model of a man, like a scarecrow) and celebrate the fact the Parliament and James I were not blown sky high by Guy Fawkes.

10 days before and after this Bonfire Night, we are allowed to lit up fire crackers and enjoy fireworks, and of course this will bring lot of noise to me, those fireworks noise. Quite annoying actually.

On the last Saturday, I went to Bute Park in Cardiff to watch the fireworks spectacular with darling. It was really amazing, enjoyed lot of super nice fireworks there, for the duration of half an hour. Cool.! The maximum duration of firework I've ever watch was 10 minutes? or maybe 15 minutes. Back in Malaysia of course. Ya, the last time I watched was during Merdeka Celebration outside Sungei Wang, with darling, ailing and her bf. That was just 5 minutes.

That's is the perfect picture I could captured by that moment. The temperature was freezing, and my body was shivering, my hand was shaking, so that's why all the picture turned out to be bad. Instead of keep on trying, darling suggested that we enjoy the firework first and kept all the memory in our brain. But I'd take a few video shoot, it is alot better, but I don't know how to post up in my blog :p

I'd have a one whole day off for myself today. Went to TGIs' Friday for my breakfast plus lunch plus dinner, all in one meal, hoohoo, sound interesting right? What's a save of money to have 3 in 1 meal like this. Better don't do it, it is seriously bad for health. I went there at 3 plus near 4pm, and finished my meal by 6pm. 2 hours of non-stop eating, if that were you, I am sure that you won't feel hungry until the next morning.

pic no.1: before enter to the restaurant, and before the sun set.
pic no.2: this is my long awaiting Friday's BBQ Ribs. (Tender marinated pork ribs, chargrilled and basted in our signature BBQ sauce, served with Cajun-battered onion rings and Friday's fries). I miss this for 3 months. So, I ordered a full rack ribs rather than half rack.
pic no.3: darling ordered this, Jack Daniel's Salmon. (A chunky, chargrilled salmon fillet, coated in Jack Daniel's sweet 'n' smoky glaze, served with fresh vegetables and our cheesy mash). I like the mash potato alot.
pic no.4: dessert. Chocolate Fudge Fixation. (Indulgence! Three layers of moist chocolate cake with rich chocolate & fudge filling, served warm with vanilla flavour ice cream). This is real nice, esp the warm melted chocolate.
pic no.5: ice-cream cocktails. Chocolate Monkey. (Fresh banana, banana liqueur, chocolate syrup and vanilla flavour ice-cream. Doesn't contain monkeys).
not in pic: appetizers. Buffalo Wings. (Tender chicken wings tossed in Frank's Hot Sauce for extra kick and served with our cool blue cheese dip)
