Dont want that

Posted in escuela on July 30, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I was in school for more than 12 hours today. Looking at the time now, it’s almost 1:00 AM and i just got home from school. I’m exhausted, deprived of sleep and sick. No wonder i cant seem to recover from my cough. I dont have enough rest and most of the time, my eyes are glued to the computer screen. This is crazy. We ought to work hard and get enough rest for ourselves too. However, we are not allowed to do so because we’re running out of time.  If we sleep more, lesser work will be done. If we sleep less, more work will be done.  Just so you know, sleep and rest is important because thats when the body repair all the  worn out tissues. Have you heard of stories where some people suddenly collapse and die because their body is too weak to function due to lack of sleep and rest? I dont want that  to happen because its not worth it. Health is way important than work and money.

To top all of that, i dropped my phone several times today. I just got it 2 days ago!!! There’s scratches on the phone now. I feel so sad and guilty because my mum just bought it for me. I can’t even do a simple thing of taking good care of it.

Today is definitely not a good day for me.

Some might have realised that i’ve been using the classic Nokia black and white phone for quite some time. I cant stick to one phone for very long. I’ll damage it somehow. Being jobless right now, i cant afford a new phone for myself. I needed a new phone so badly because the classic Nokia phone had limited storage space. I always get this displayed across the screen, “NO SPACE FOR NEW MESSAGES.” Well thankfully, my wishes was answered because my mum just got a new one for me!!! Its white, touch screen, a camera with a flash function and not forgetting, awesome functions!  At last, a decent phone. I feel so lucky right now :)

Thanks mummy.

Ok, i’ll try not to drop it or spoil it. If not, i’ll have use the classic Nokia black and white “NO SPACE FOR NEW MESSAGES” phone again.

Banged

Posted in corazón y amor on July 26, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

Just came back home and i realised something. One day of the weekend have gone by and  there’s so many things to do in so little time. 48 hours during the weekend is not enough for me. I wanted to be a nerdy nerd and complete my almost due report at home.. But i thought, “HEY! I have to work hard and play hard too!”

and so, i had my fun at Liyanah’s 21st.

I laughed too much till i banged my head onto something unknowingly. The next thing i know, i was fast sleep.

What a night. and it was crazy.

What makes us girls

I skipped school to attend a job interview yesterday and training today. I’ve sent in my schedule but i dont know when i’ll start. I’m a bit worried actually. I dont know if i’m up for it.

Anyway, training with the other girls was fun! We were taught about the products, its benefits and uses. After hearing all the good things about the product, I’m totally sold. I’m going to get the products for myself!!! The last time i worked as a lingerie promoter, i ended up buying all kinds of lingerie. The amount of panties i have is sufficient for a month supply. Till now, i still can’t kick the habit of lingerie buying. I’m addicted to it. Oh please, i hope make up is not my next addiction.

The table had eyeshadow palettes with more than 100 colours. I can spend the whole day trying out every single colour. haha.

SHE

Posted in viviendo una vida on July 22, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I didn’t go to school today. Been coughing for almost 3 weeks now but i’m too stubborn to take any medicine. I kept believing my immune system was strong enough to fight it. Since i wasn’t getting any better, i decided to visit the doctor. After coughing for weeks,  my cough suddenly disappeared after waking up from sleep in the morning.  I panicked and thought, “What if i go to the doctor and he thinks that i am bluffing him?” I’m not being silly. Once, i went to the doctor because of menses cramp. The doctor didn’t think it was serious. So, SHE refused to give me MC for missing school. To think SHE is a SHE. She should know how it feels like having terrible menses cramp!!! Thankfully, the doctor i went to just now was really kind. He said, “Take care, dont drink cold drinks” and gave me medicine :)

Great news. I’ve got a job interview tomorrow. I’m feeling really nervous about it! Wish me luck!

Losing the title

Posted in viviendo una vida on July 21, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I need a part-time job. Its about time i work my lazy ass. I need to support my expenses and i think i’m losing my ‘shopaholic’ title because i dont shop that much anymore. I’ve sent out resumes and i hope someone would call me for an interview soon! Thinking about jobs, i’m having butterflies in my stomach. Its been a while since i last worked and toiled hard for $.

In the afternoon, i created my own daily skin care regime. I ‘m willing to try it for a month and i hope it works. If it doesn’t, i’ll go the shortcut way – which is to visit the dermatologist and go for cosmetic surgery. I’m dead serious. I’m thinking of laser scar surgery or cosmetic peel. My mum recommended them and she supports me to go for one. So, i need a job badly to pay for it.

On the other hand, i hope to strike 4d or something. haha.

13 packets

Posted in escuela, viviendo una vida on July 20, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I’m feeling so sleepy.

Yesterday night, i thought of getting to bed early without completing my ‘Investment Finance & Analysis’ tutorial. I had initially planned to copy from a classmate. Feeling guilty, i ended up doing the tutorial till wee hours of the morning. Well, i’m glad i did! During class, i was asked a question. Thank god i did my tutorial and managed to answer it. If i don’t answer it correctly, she’ll pick on me (like every 10 minutes) and keep asking more questions to “test” how much i know. I wouldn’t want that because i’ve been through it before. It was horrible!

During the next lesson, the lecturer gave us work to do. I’m usually a lazy ass in class. I guess the lecturer wanted to sabotage me today. She called my name and asked me to write the answer at the whiteboard. Thankfully, i did the question and the answer i wrote on the whiteboard was correct! Still, the teacher didn’t believe i actually attempt the question! She asked for my paper and even asked, “Are you sure that’s your handwriting?” Of course it was! I guess, i should be more attentive and participative in class so that i wont get picked now and then.

After school, went to collect the facial masks that i ordered online. 13 packets. I wonder why i bother to use facial masks now when in the past i dont. I’ve always hated putting so many things on my face. I feel so “polluted” with the chemicals they put in every product. But since my skin is recently like crap, i’ve been getting toner, moisturizers and facial masks to help my skin get better. I dont even own any of those in the past and i wonder how much i’ve spent on one product to another. Sadly, i dont see my skin getting any better :(

“You think you know crazy?”

“I’ll show you crazy. Try me, bitch!”

Went to the movies with boyfriend and watched Obsessed starring Beyonce Knowles. Those were the lines that kept playing in my head all day. Although the ending was predictable, it was good. The fighting scene in the movie made me want to throw punches in the air. A few times, i find myself on the edge of my seat as i got all worked up over the plot. Imagine this: Your husband just got into the car after a hard day’s work. How would you feel if a lady from his office suddenly get into the car and stripped in front of him? What if on one occasion, she drugged him so that she can have sex with him? What if she keep stalking and wont leave him alone? How would you feel? Angry? Stressed? Well, most of the time, i was putting myself in the wife shoes. One thing to be thankful for: The husband kept resisting and chose to remain faithful. I mean, what % of guys would resist sex from a hot and gorgeous colleague? If she made an attempt to have sex, most guys would probably give in and go ahead. Its no secret. Guy’s nature – we know.

Often said

Posted in corazón y amor, quiero a mi familia on July 18, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

At the moment, wherever you go, you’ll hear Michael Jackson’s songs playing at the background. In the train, a guy was blasting his ears to black or white. At a CD store, they were playing his songs and showing his video clips. At the cinema, they played his songs before screening a movie.  Be it Black or White, Smooth Criminal or “Billie Jean”, i find myself singing to his songs.

Boyfriend said something like (even if it is not his exact words, the meaning is still there), “Eh, your singing is a disaster.” Since he said that, i am more determined to practice and sing more often to him. haha.

Went back home with little sister.

People often say we look similar. Do we? :)

Time passes me by

Posted in corazón y amor on July 17, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I was an early bird for a day. Since Term 2 of school started, i was early for my classes. for the first time TODAY. I’m proud of this achievement (even though it is nothing big)! haha.

After school, met boyfriend for dinner. I had to wait almost 3 hours for him because he booked out late. I walked around the mall and shopped a little bit before dumping myself at the library. I found a cosy spot and spent the remaining hours watching movies from my IPOD. When i got up from the seat, i could see the shape of my butt planted on it.  I bet, if you put your hand on it, you’ll feel the warmth.

Dinner was at Sakura. I’m still having cough but i insist on having fried cockles kway teow! I’m so into kway teow these few days.

Photobucket

Boyfriend didn’t order anything healthier either. He had mee goreng.

Photobucket

In addition, we had fried wantan.

Photobucket

And so, our dinner consists of nothing healthy when everything is fried.

Photobucket

After dinner, we parted ways. He had book in to camp :( while i went back home.

Well, as soon as i got home, i took the scissors and snipped off my fringe. I felt it was getting longer and most of time, it would either cover my eyes or get into my eyes. I cut it short till i ended up with bangs!

Photobucket

Anyway, i dont think there is much difference because my fringe is still covering my eyes!!! WTH!

PS: Went to his place for awhile and his mum showed his baby photos. Looking at his pictures, i feel time really went by really quick.

The after 6

Met Syafiah for dinner after school.

Photobucket

Ok, all i’m going to talk about is food. For the first time, i tried the Cinnamon melts from McDonalds. I shall consider this as my newest guilty pleasure because i”m DEFINITELY lovin it! It is warm, sugary and filled with goodness. Every bite gives you a sugar rush. And as you open the box, the alluring smell of the cinnamon bread makes you want to gobble everything up at one go! Yes, it is that pleasurable.

This is going for ONLY $2.50 at McDonalds

CIMG1949

I must admit, i’m not a big fan of durian. I’m fine with the taste, but not the smell. When Syafiah told me she wanted to get the durian pancake from Prima Deli, i told her “Eee. i dont really like durian.” She kept insisting and even claimed that once i try one, i would get hooked to it. For real, i tried and it was effing delicious! The pancake and the durian was so soft… that it felt as though it melted in my mouth! Oh, taste so good! I would want to get more!

My advice is, YOU GOT TO TRY THESE! If not you are really pathetic. going to regret it!

PS: Thanks to Syafiah for introducing these to me! :)

Carried away

Posted in viviendo una vida on July 15, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I went to the supermarket after school. Bought oranges, canned food and a watermelon.

I took the bus and carried them all the way home.

Well, OF COURSE it was heavy!!!

Especially the watermelon. It looked as if i was carrying a bowling ball around.

Anyway, i wont be a sissy and take a cab just because i need to carry a heavy watermelon all the way home. I’m a strong girl, ok! haha.

You said i was greedy

Posted in escuela on July 13, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I told boyfriend that i had rice with chicken cutlet, cheese hot dog and sotong for lunch. and… he said i was greedy!

Anyway, i got back all the test results. I suck at all my modules. I know i am capable of doing so much better. Its not as if the paper was difficult. If only i had put in more effort… i could have done better. Next time round, it will be.

One word

Posted in viviendo una vida on July 12, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I’m so in love with high waist knee length skirt. I wore them to meet boyfriend and he said something like, “Why suddenly wear like this?

I could only think of one word to explain.

Classy

The next thing he said was, “Hmm… Ok, You look great.”

Just got home from a lovely day.

You cant go on with an empty stomach. Dinner was at a steakhouse, where we got romantically involved with a candle. Boyfriend saw a candle, took out his lighter and POOF! the candle was lit. I went, “Eh! Are we allowed to do that?” “We are indoors, you know!” His eyes started to wander as he scan the other tables. No one else had a lighted candle on their table. We just sat there innocently and giggled among ourselves. haha. It was funny. Which i could capture that mischievous face of his.

Photobucket

The garlic bread came first. Starving already, we instantly “whacked” our food. Leaving the basket empty, not even a single crumb was spared.

Photobucket

I had pasta!

Photobucket

and he had steak.

Photobucket

and this is an empty plate. haha.

Photobucket

After dinner, i wanted ice-cream.  Nothing can top McDonald’s hot fudge sundae! The taste of creamy vanilla and the way the chocolate melts in your mouth will make you drool when you look at the following picture.

choc_sundae

I know, you need a cup of sundae now. The taste is already lingering in your mouth.  I’m greedy for more too.

We spent the rest of the evening watching The Haunting in Connecticut at Cineleisure.  Just before the show started, they paid tribute to Michael Jackson by playing his songs. Some were singing along while moving their heads and shoulders. Anyway, someone could have strut their stuff by doing a moonwalk. haha.

Yet again, i was hungry after the movie. Went over to Burger King for Mexican drumlets. When i got home, i stuffed myself with mangosteen and rambutan. Not only was i full from all those food, i’m so full of love! So much teasing, laughing and smiles makes a great day :)

So much

Posted in corazón y amor, escuela on July 10, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I set the alarm and i overslept. I missed the first lesson of the day. Took my own sweet time to get ready and end up being an hour late for the next lesson. Thankfully, the lecturer was nice and i was let off with these words, “Try to be early next time”. I smiled, he smiled and he marked my attendance. 30 minutes later, he dismissed the class.

Met boyfriend after school. I had the chance of spending the whole afternoon with him before he book in back to camp at night. He made me laugh and smile so much that it made me miss him even more when he is not around. Gosh, i miss him already.

Black or white

Dressed all black for Zirca.

I jumped and sing along to the songs.

I was still so full from dinner till all those jumping made me puke.

Oh boy, what a night.

His place

Posted in corazón y amor on July 5, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

Loved. Contented. Ecstatic. Elated. Captivated.

Went to boyfriend’s place. We ordered lunch from pizza hut and spent the whole afternoon watching TV.

Relate it with someone.

Posted in viviendo una vida on July 4, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

I’m having a nasty weekend. Try to relate it with someone who match the description of each paragraph.

1) Those who don’t think twice before they speak.

2) Those who are petty. Try speaking your mind and they will temporarily ban themselves from talking to you.

3) Those who don’t understand another person’s plight. They would want things to be at their own convenience.

5) Friends who chose to label you with something you never thought they would.

6) When someone you love becomes heartless in so many ways. One classic example is making you wait by the phone all day for their call.

7) Those who quote you but cant get it right. I suggest its better to shut up and dont try to.

8) When you put the blame on someone who tried to help you.

9) When you prefer to ignore someone, but you cant because you see that particular face almost everyday.

10) Lastly, Humans are selfish. Agree with me on this.

So, tell me.  Did you have anyone in mind?

Naked

I’m having a swollen upper eyelid. No eyeliner, mascara or eyeshadow for the next few days. Oh crap. My eyes feel so…

The haunting

Posted in escuela on July 1, 2009 by Nina Lareina Adam

Mid-semester tests are over but the horror of meeting project datelines is haunting me. I’m exhausted from all those sleepless nights. Before i could even rest my eyes and have a good night sleep, i have to prepare for my Final Year Project presentation this coming Monday. Neverending.
