To Sleep or Not To Sleep

I have had trouble sleeping for the past couple of days... Throughout the so called experience, i've picked up a few do's and don'ts... Just some tips on how to handle minor insomnia attacks..

- When you have trouble sleeping.. drinking 2 cups of nescafe late at night is not something you would wanna do.. demn yu si nikman for buying coffee mate for this house..

-Not enough sleep equals a fried up brain.. Hence, playing guitar hero at 4 am and getting pissed coz your fingers aren't doing what you're telling them to do doesn't help you one bit..

-The moment you feel sleepy.. Be it at 11 or 8.45... Prepare to sleep and make sure you wont get disturbed.. No sounds or bright lights to suddenly wake you up from the slumber that you have achieved because trust me.. Once you are woken up.. Getting back to sleep is impossible..

-Wake up early!! Regardless of what time you went to bed... 9 am is just nice.. And no naps!!! Spending all day in bed (since ere the day ends at 4 ish, it's not that hard to do) will definitely not help you correct your sleeping patterns..

-No matter where you are in the world.. Always remember to bring your Sejarah Malaysia (Tingkatan Lima) text book coz seriously.. No other book works better than this to just knock you right off to dreamland...


And there you go.. For all you other screwed up sleepers just like me..

p/s: tonight i have to sleep early coz tomorrow will be my first proper boxing day outing.. will tell you how that one goes.. fingers crossed!!!

Half truths, White Lies, Blatant Deceptions

Slalu nye kalau ade orang kantoi menipu, may it be in any sort of circumstance, diorang akan try to save diri sendiri to a certain degree.. Kadang2 tak kantoi pon... But still they feel the need to justify to themselves that ape yang diorang buat tu (i.e menipu) is something acceptable and in extreme cases DIPERLUKAN.. Lets just put on our observation goggles for a while and look at what ketige2 bende ni actually means..

-Half Truths-
This is the most safe thing to use.. Simpan information.. Jangan bagitau sume.. Basically jadi kan story tu macam cheese.. Holes here, there, everywhere!!.. Very useful if tau diri sendiri blabber mouth dan akan cerita kat orang ramai.. At least biler orang ramai tu bergossip about yu (inevitable if yu are one who likes to talk about anything and everything on God's green earth) takkan ade discrepencies dalam compilation story diorang..

-White Lies-
Owh yess.. The matyr.. Good intentions leading the way.. The ever so famous white lie.. Digunakan when penipuan yang berlaku is for a good reason.. Contohnyer, anda gi open house rumah kawan anda/bos mak anda /pak cik anda /gerlpren anda... Makanan yang di sajikan sumpah tak sedap.. Tapi bile ditanye.. Anda senyum menjawab.. Delicious!!! walaupon dalam hati tuhan je yang tahu dah terbayang2 kfc sebab lapar giler tapi tak sanggup nak tambah makanan dan hadapi seround lagi..

and last but not least......

-Blatant Deceptions-
Yang ini.. Rase nye.. Tayah explain pon tak pe kot.. People use it almost every single day.. Its easier to do this than the previously mentioned categories.. Menipu terus... Banyak reasons why people do it.. Banyak care too!!.. You can lie with yur expression, smiling tapi secretly tgh giving the other person the finger behind yur back.. You can lie with yur actions and, of course, dengan lidah anda yang bercabang itu..

Frankly my friends.. To me.. Sume same.. They are all different words describing the same thing... you can call it whatever yu want.. You can list down a gazillion reasons on why yu did what yu did and said what yu said.. The bottom line is.. you lied.. simple.. T.I.P.U.... L.I.E... (arina can spell.. yayyy!!!)... at least when you own up to it.. though you lose my trust.. at least you salvage some of my respect for coming clean in the end.. And for those of you who believe white lies exists, get off your high horse and smell the coffee.. you have denial written all over your face..

So... on that note.. i, hereby declare that honesty is NOT my best policy.. due to the simple fact that i lie... everyday.. and that.. my friends.. is the truth.. =)

Tongue Twisters

Feeling bored??..
Nobody to hang out with??..
Low on cash for entertainment?!?!

Then try the newly compiled collection of cool tongue twisters free of charge!!
All you need..
Is acceptably in working condition speech tools (i.e mouth, tongue, voice box, etc etc)
And.....
A VERY BORED JOBLESS MIND

All set?!?!?! Then lets get twisting!!!

1.
A Tudor who tooted a flute
tried to tutor two tooters to toot.
Said the two to their tutor,
"Is it harder to toot
or to tutor two tooters to toot?"

2.
You've no need to light a night-light
On a light night like tonight,
For a night-light's light's a slight light,
And tonight's a night that's light.
When a night's light, like tonight's light,
It is really not quite right
To light night-lights with their slight lights
On a light night like tonight.

3.
If a Hottentot taught a Hottentot tot
To talk ere the tot could totter,
Ought the Hottenton tot
Be taught to say aught, or naught,
Or what ought to be taught her?
If to hoot and to toot a Hottentot tot
Be taught by her Hottentot tutor,
Ought the tutor get hot
If the Hottentot tot
Hoot and toot at her Hottentot tutor?

Feeling adventurous??
Try some in different languages!!


French

Un chasseur sachant chasser chassait sans son chien de chasse.

Ton thé, t'a-t-il ôté ta toux?

Étant sorti sans parapluie, il m'eût plus plu qu'il plût plus tôt.


Japan

Namamugi, Namagome, Namatamago.


German

Fischers Fritze fischt frische Fische;
Frische Fische fischt Fischers Fritze.


Zulu

Ingqeqebulane yaqaqela uqhoqhoqho, uqhoqhoqho waqaqela iqaqa, iqaqa laqalaza.



That's all folks!! Have a nice time trying these out... I would have to admit.. Some really twists your tongue!! *adeh lidah lenguh*

While They are Away

This weekend, Westy (other than myself) and Crofty will be away, as in not be in Manchester.. I will be left alone.. Ok that sounds a bit too dramatic...

For the record.. They are not planning to 'leave' me.. I myself decided to not go with them..

So... What should I do this weekend???...

1) The guitar hero will be all mine to go crazy over..
2) The actual guitar will be all mine to go crazy over (though this happens basically ALL the time)
3) The TV will be all mine to go crazy over..
4) Other than staying home should i go hang out???
5) Study?!?!?!?!?!!?!? (gulp!)
6) Kemas rumah... (shyt.. i have been showing minor OCD symptoms all week!!)

Aiyoohhh... Having so much freedom has never been more confusing!!!!

p/s: yes I AM focusing on things that are trivial so that i dont have to think about things that matter in my life.. Diversions are my choice of addiction..

p/s/s: for those of you who dont know..Westy represents the people who live at Great Western St (Cuna, Eizlyn, Ikmal, and yours truly) while Crofty (Crofton St) are the guys (Mun, Nikman, Zaid, Iskandar)... No idea what Deyne (Deyne Ave) will be up to though (Din, Dan and a few others whom i am not that close with)

What is wrong with 2008???!?!?!?!

For the last few months i have seen problems after problems hit people around me, the not so near ones, the complete stranger ones, and last but not least myself.. Is it something to do with the water?.. Is something addling up our brains so that this chain reaction of disaster after disaster came a-washing?!?!? How is it that other people's choices can cause a butterfly effect that can fuck up our life so completely (ok maybe not THAT complete.. just feels that way), till we feel like losing control over our own life... So can somebody PLEASE explain to me.. what the hell is wrong with 2008??
