about horses and relationships ,

yes , i'm still alive :)


i've been doing all sorts of things lately and i guess i didn't have the time to sit down and update my bloggie , sorry :( anyway , i don't have that much time now either since i have to make sure arish eats his lunch and also deal with the laundry so , shall we get started ? 


i've finally started my horse-riding lessons :) yup . no more joyrides or whatever . i'm talking about serious horse-riding here . so far i've been to 2 sessions and lemme just tell you that both sessions were excruciatingly painful ! x) the muscles on my arms as well as my thighs would practically be screaming at the end of each session , HAHA . but it's definitely fun and i always take it as a challenge , y'know ? i've been scared of most animals my entire life and well , taking horse-riding lessons will hopefully help me conquer those fears . cehh ;) i like learning some of the 'horse terms' too ; i.e. trot , stirrup and so on . hmm :)


i'm not trying to brag here or anything , but i've noticed that whenever i go out , there's a 60% chance some random guy tries to talk to me or kacau kacau me . honestly , i don't know how i feel about being kacau-ed , all i know is that it gets annoying if (a) he's persistent in asking me all sorts of questions and yet i don't even know him and (b) he does it in front of my parents . yeah , not cool , dude -.-' 


just for the record though , i'm perfectly happy with being single :) sure , there are times i wish i have someone to call my 'boyfriend' and feel completely safe knowing he'll always be there for me , but being in a relationship also means i'd have new responsibilities and not forgetting the possible dramas i'd have to face again , like in my last relationship . 


BUT ..


someone is making me happy lately :) he's been really sweet and everything . right now , though , i just wanna see where things are going with him . i'm not saying it might lead to a relationship , but i'm happy and i think he's happy too so , let's just leave it at that :)


that's all for now :) thanks for stopping by ! take care .


ereenalfian :)


P.S. to my dearest annshrh , i'm always here lah :) i haven't disappeared or tried to avoid you . i'm just a phone call / text away ..

laptop troubles .

daddy : eh , i sent your laptop to the workshop place . they said you probably dropped it somewhere , that's why it's not working well .
me : really ? i didn't drop it ..
daddy : i dunno , they said they'll try and get it fixed .
me : and if they can't get it fixed .. ?
daddy : then we just throw the laptop away lah . 


okay , first of all , i really like his optimism :) i mean , it's not everyday my dad's acting like that . he's usually the one who worries a lot about certain things . but , i would've liked it if he had said something like 'then we throw your old laptop and buy you a new one !' . YEAH :) that would definitely leave me gapping and wondering what the hell was wrong with my dad , but also exuberantly happy :D 


spent a few minutes just now googling some new laptops on sale . hmm :)


gotta go and get Arish ready (: we're having an early dinner out since dad went back to Teluk Intan for the day and mom's not feeling well .


thanks for stopping by ! 

resemblance ?

quick question ;

do we look like each other ? cos' people have been saying i look like Najwa Latif -.- 

I'M SERIOUSLY NOT BRAGGING .

i just wanna know :) 

please comment at this post or write something in the cbox to let me know your answer . 

thanks !

KPP class .

I LOVE THE MOVIE BURLESQUE :)

yeah , just thought i'd get that out in the open . hehe :D

i'm deeply sorry for abandoning you again , dear bloggie :( i wasn't at home a lot this weekend , hence the inability to blog . but anyway , i've got the next 20 minutes all to myself and so , please sit down (or stand up , up to you) and gaze intently facing your computer screen and continue reading ..


i already went to the 5-hour KPP class :) YAY ME ! well , it should be considered a great achievement , okay ? yeah , considering mom and dad refuse to help me book the classes or even be a part of the whole driving class process , except of course , in the payment . hehe ;) and so , i called the Metro Driving Academy last Monday to book a spot for me in the KPP class on Friday . why Friday , you might ask . well , i originally wanted to go on Thursday , but they didn't have KPP class on Thursday and so , why not the next day , right ? the Metro Driving Academy said that they'd send a van to pick me up on Friday . i woke up pretty early that day cos' i didn't wanna miss the van , got ready and was waiting for the van around 9 . when the van finally arrived , i walked towards it anxiously since at first glance , there were only guys in the van . yup , i was the only girl in the van -.- i opened the sliding door of the van and was grateful that the driver was being all nice and said 'Hi' . i settled down and all of a sudden , i heard someone call my name . to be honest , my first thought was 'oh my god , am i hearing voices ? who the hell knows my name in this van ?' . hehe , i know , sounds pretty stupid but it's true ! i slowly turned around and guess who was there ? Kamal Suria and Qhaikal :) 


HAHA , shocked ? i was too . i didn't know what to do , naturally , so since Kamal had said 'Hi' , i said 'Hi' back . we tried talking a little bit after that . it was kinda awkward considering it wasn't like a normal conversation . yeah , it was more of Kamal asking me a question and me answering with a quick answer . in the end , we ended up sitting in the van silently until we reached the driving school . 


okay , please let me explain myself :) first , i wasn't acting awkward because i still had feelings for Kamal or anything . no , we've all moved on perfectly well , thank you . and anyway , he already has a girlfriend , or so i heard last time from Afrizal . i was acting awkward because (a) i was in a van filled with guys and i was the only girl , duh ? and (b) ever since i went into an all girls' boarding school , i basically become SUPREMELY shy around guys . i know i used to be pretty social and can talk to a guy for hours , but seriously , now i'm like 'please let me be invisible , dear God' . don't get me wrong , i CAN talk to a guy .. just after some time getting used to him . i mean , did you think it was so easy with Afrizal ? he had to call me a few times after we bumped into each other at tuition and completely understand if i became silent all of a sudden , and only THEN was i brave enough to Skype with him or whatever . hmm , i guess i gotta work on the whole talking to guys issue . yup :)


after arriving at Metro , i saw Liyana (i miss you , girl !) and waved at her . i lined up at the counter and all of a sudden , someone called my name . seriously , by this time , i was getting pretty anxious . i mean , who else was i gonna meet there , right ? i turned and saw Airina walking up to me . i was so .. well , relieved . we hugged and went all girly . biasa lah SESERI-ans :D hehe . we chatted for some time and when i got to the front of the line , Airina had to go cos' she had a test to study for or something . 


i registered with the woman behind the counter and she asked me to take this colour blindness test . only problem was i didn't know where i was supposed to take the test so , i went out of the office place and went towards the hall that the woman also mentioned . on the way , i bumped into Aina Yuhanis and Syafikah :) in my head , i was practically freaking out . i was like 'what is it with this driving school ? does everyone go on the same day ?' . i asked them where the colour blindness test was supposed to be taken , and they said that it was in a little room at the far right of the office . yup , it meant i had to go back in the office place . i turned around and went back in the office place and straight away headed towards the small room . on the way , i saw Kamal sitting down on one of the waiting chairs . i thought of saying sorry to him since i didn't want him to misinterpret my awkwardness as arrogance , but the small computer room was getting packed so , i had to hurry and take the colour blindness test before the KPP class started .


hehe , well , i passed the colour blindness test . yup , I AM NOT COLOUR BLIND :) i went straight to the hall next . while sitting down minding my own business in the hall , a girl turned around and smiled at me . i was wearing my specs at the time so , my vision was focused on her face . i thought for a second and figured out who the girl was . it was Faten Amira :D i was kinda relieved i knew someone in the KPP class cos' other people in the class had a friend with them and i was there all alone . i went and sat next to Faten Amira :) 


okay , i'm not gonna bore you of the details of the KPP class . i'm sorry , i'm sorry :) it was definitely informative . it wasn't boring , like Annisa said it would be , cos' we laughed a lot and honestly , it felt like being in a typical classroom again .. despite also having adults in the room learning with us . the class was really LONG though . i went home completely exhausted o.o


went to dinner at Big Plate that night :) i didn't wanna go out at all that night , but Arish said he didn't wanna go too if i didn't go . so , terpaksa lah -.-


there , i hope y'all enjoyed reading about my first driving class :) i've been studying the KPP book they gave us since morning and tried the CD they also gave us . so far , i passed the practice test on the CD two times already , but i still don't think i'm ready yet . dunno why , it's just a gut feeling that i have , y'know ? so , maybe i'll take the test next week ? wish me luck , peeps :) i'll need it .


OH ! before i end this LONG post , i wanna give a shout out to my new followers (: 

aww , you guys are so sweet , seriously :') 

thanks for following my bloggie ! 

filled with all my nonsense , my crazy thoughts and random outbursts . 

THANK YOU . XIE XIE . 감사합니다 . спасибо .

LET'S GO SOMEWHERE :)

LET'S EAT OUT. LET'S WATCH A MOVIE. LET'S JUST HANGOUT.

this coming from the girl who's stuck at home all day long .

what i learnt from my parents

hello , my dear readers :)


i watched a Malay drama the other day out of sheer boredom and the scene went something like this ..


guy ; i've been doing some thinking and i think we should get married ..
girl ; (suddenly bursts into tears) i - i can't ..
guy ; (puts on a worried face) but why ?
girl ; (still crying) i can't .. i can't .. cook .
guy ; (relieved) oh , well . when we get married , we can always eat out . 


yeah , and my reaction was 'WHAT THE !?' . no guy in their right mind would say that . i mean , sure , love is blind and we're supposed to accept the person for who they are , but not being able to cook and do all the basic house chores , that's major . even if you guys get married , live together and whatnot , he'll always have that excuse to use whenever you guys fight . 


for example , 

'i'm bored eating out all the time , but it's not like i can do anything about it since you can't even cook a decent meal' 

or ..

'why can't you learn how to cook ? i'm getting sick of the takeouts' 

and soon , yes very soon , without you even realizing it , his words start eating at you and you feel even more frustrated at yourself for not being able to 'cater to his every need' . okay , i'm not saying i'm already perfect and ready to face the world , heck , i'm only 17 years old . but i guess this is coming from a side of me that has viewed life situations and gone like 'hey , what if we did that differently ?' . 


COME ON , BE REALISTIC . 


i learnt a few things growing up while watching my parents , which is ..

1. you don't have to be perfect , he/she will accept you no matter what . that's part of what love is .
2. at least KNOW a few basic house chores . you don't have to be brilliant at them , just so you can survive on your own as well as cater for him/her .
3. everything will be alright in the end because you still got him/her by your side .
4. marriage is more fun when you're married with your best friend :D
5. this one's for the guys , which is to always be patient with your loved one , no matter how crazy or impatient she is . wait , i'm not saying my mom's crazy or impatient , just .. well , you know :)
6. enjoy everyday with him/her cos' you never know when's the end .
7. problems will always arise but the solution's worth sticking around for .
8. regrets are pointless and what ifs are immature , so make new dreams and experience it together .   

i hope someday i'll have what my parents have in their relationship :) and i also hope that i can learn other life lessons from them .

cousins are the people you grow up with but don't get to call 'siblings' .

been hanging out with my cousins a lot this past holiday :) 

 

these were taken while waiting for my mom to pick us up after watching Alvin & The Chipmunks 3 at Space U8 :) 

the first pic from left ; Arish , Akmal (Abang Lang) , me and Danish .

the second one is me and Afiq (Angah) .

 these were taken when we were celebrating grandmamaw's birthday at Kayu Manis :) see how many cousins i have ? err , this is just on my mom's side .

from left ; Azmer , Afiq (Angah) , Ermi , Iqa , Adli (Along) , Danish , Auni , Tasha , Arish , grandmamaw , me , Akmal (Abang Lang) and Azree .

 the eldest of the families :) 

well , Aula's another eldest but she wasn't there since she's at Egypt continuing her studies .

 if you guys haven't noticed , Azmer and Azree are twins :) yeah , they're actually a year younger than me .. but WAY taller than me . dulu sama ketinggian kowt , why did they have to grow all of a sudden ? -.-'

Shahrul Adli :)

i wouldn't say he's my boyfriend-like type of cousin considering nanti girlfriend dia marah , hehe . but we're pretty close :D he's incredibly smart , MCKK yo . and well , apparently very loyal to his girlfriend .

i love my cousins , honestly i do :) and i love how LOUD and crazy my family can be . i promise you guys ; HURT THEM AND YOU WILL FACE CONSEQUENCES . 

thanks for reading :D

cringe .

ladies and gentlemen , boys and girls , pets and whoever else is relevant ..


GUESS WHAT ? i have a flu -.-'


also , my workouts so far (shut up , i know it's only been 2 days) are severely painful o.o the thing about working out , i recently realized , is that it doesn't hurt WHILE you're exercising , but later on . yeah , when you're about to go to bed and have to climb flights of stairs .. only THEN will you sense the true pain of it all . 


right now , my core section hurts like crazy from the core workouts yesterday as well as the 4.2 km jog i went to today , my legs are starting to cramp after going on that jog and my thighs are burning from doing everything from yesterday and today . but i will not give up , no siree :) i am determined to lose as much weight as i can until people say 'hey , did you lose weight ?' . 


HAHA , okay i know you guys are probably going like 'gila lah perempuan ni' but so what ? and please don't just ask me 'hey , did you lose weight ?' just to make me feel better . i know if you're lying :D


GAHH , everytime i sneeze , my core section sorta 'cringes' along with it so , i'll yell out 'OUCH !' or just basically scream . hee :D 


in pain here , peeps . seriously .
