you have to watch MOANA

hello you! hello, again! i have so much to say. i'll get back to where i last left which i think was when ma and i made scones. nothing happened after that so i will just get to my day yesterday. i woke up super early at 8 and i was about to go back to sleep and i thought 'Wow it's super sunny i guess it must be late and my cue to get up' and then it happens to be 8 when my regular s about 10 just like today. so i ate, showered and curled under the sheets until 11. that's when the fun started. you can check out a video version of yesterday here . we drove to the cinema and got tickets for moana and got popcorn. the movie was at 11.45 so we downed the box of popcorn even before the movie started but we also packed some chips in our bags so it was all cool. 

okay, what do i have to say about Moana... IT'S MY FAVOURITE MOVIE EVER. SUPER COOL, I WANNA LIVE ON AN ISLAND AND CHANGE MY ID TO MOANA. that's how much i liked it. storyline in 3,2,1, GO! 

Moana(daughter of village chief) is drawn by the ocean to go beyond the reef but just so happens that the only law of the village is that you cant. one day the village is found with no harvest because Maui stole the heart of Te Fiti which gives life. Moana has the heart so she needs to find Maui and together they journey to find his magic fish hook(because he isnt maui without it) then to Te Fiti. moana successfully places the heart back to the spot and then plants start growing and fish get caught and the monsters dont bug anyone anymore. 

the songs are the best, even better than the entire frozen soundtrack which no one then thought possible. im even listening to it now. gosh dwayne johnson can sing! it's great! there's great comedy and then there's one part where i was silently crying in my seat because her grandma was dying and she kept telling moana to go and restore the heart. then she died.

now im totally raving over maori tattoos. they're so cool. i want to get some merch too but movie merch doesnt come cheap.

after that we went to lunch at a new place we wanted to try out but it turned out to be not so great. we ate pork, chicken and fish and it was edible and had flavour but so not worth what we were paying. i would mention the cafe's name but i dont want to throw shade that direct.

we planned to go karaoke singing but i was tired so we didnt go but maybe we will soon. im not super confident about my voice.

i just took my lunch of rice, chicken, beans i could go for something sweet now. then some math.

learning to vlog

hello everyone!! it is a tueday today and it's 11.30am so i have been awake for one and half hours now. it feels cold right now and there's no sun which is so strange because the trend for the past month was it's super hot during the day and it rains from about 4pm to late at night. the rain and wind went full force yesterday that the rain seeped through my balcony door and made a puddle. about 6pm sissy drove home and i saw her from my balcony but she just sat there and i thought 'she'll come out anytime', then a while later she re-parked and im like, why isnt she coming up? when she did she said she was listening to the radio and i was thinking because she didnt have an umbrella more like.
my breakfast today was a chocolate diet drink which you might hear about in a video i'll upload on my channel tonight just like i did last night. making videos is so much easier now i have an actual camera and tripod. this holidays im going to be doing travel vlogs for my trip to Kl, Penang and possibly melacca. this evening ma and i will be making scones so watch out for that. and on other news, i reached 110 fans on musical.ly so im happy and i hope you are too.
dinner last night was herbal-ly chicken soup with rice and it's good like it always is. soup also taste better when it's raining because it's cold but you have soup to keep you warm. also it's healthier than eating out. i filmed a milkshake video between dinner and lunch which makes it tea. lunch was boiled sweet potatoes which is my favourite school lunch but since im on holiday i get to eat it at home. as i was peeling the skin on the potato i thought they kinda look like human skin why dont they use it in skin grafting instead of peeling skin from your buttocks and plastering it on other places. i ate my potatoes feeling happy. i had an early start yesterday at 7am because we didnt drive to kampar the night before and sissy had classes at 10 so we woke up, got dressed and i didnt brush my teeth because my motor skill didnt wake till after ive eaten so we went to a coffeeshop for some noodle soup and then we set off. i tried vlogging in the car but it was shaky and i didnt want to seem weird like im talking to myself at the back of the car.
in hindsight i should have slept earlier since i knew i had to be up by 7 but ma and i wanted to watch forrest gump. guysss it's a fantastic movie and if you dont know what it is then here goes: this guy is at a bus stop and he starts an anecdote about his life having a low IQ, wearing leg braces, so loved by his mama, bullied by kids at school, falling in love and miraculously running with no brace. he played football in college, graduated, joined the army, fought in vietman, made a best friend obsessed with shrimp, see him die and gets shot in the butt. he learns ping pong, plays it professionally and then leaves the army to start a shrimp shop like he promised Bubba and makes a load of cash then his mama dies and he had a one night stand with his schoolmate and fast forward 2 years of running nowhere, hes at the busstop to go and meet her. she has a kid she says is his and she's dying so they get married and she dies so he takes care of the son. the end. it's a 2 hour movie that i summarised in a paragraph so you wont have stay up till 1am to watch it. but i still say you do because it's such a touching movie with great morals and it's real funny too. plus it's historically accurate.
we had dinner at a new non halal food court in the mall and it was super crowded but we had a good table and we ordered those korean hot plates where you grill your own meat and veggies. the kimchi was bomb i tell ya. ma and sissy did most of the cooking so it was so fun for me to watch. i had fun. then halfway our stove went out of gas and i had to ask for a new one. dad didnt get to try our hot plate because he went back to kl that evening. but i took great pics.
i almost forgot, i have a new favourite necklace. i found it when me and ma were looking through her makeup stash of 3 things: wet n wild blush(or rouge), avon power foundation and pink,blue and purple maybelline eyeshadow. she hasnt used then in a while the last memory i have of seeing the make up out of the dressing drawer was during my kindergarden concert. ma did my makeup and it turned out really well so i didnt have to share makeup with all the other kids hooray. course the stash dosnt count her lipstick because she still wears them. we threw away the blush because there were bugs in it but we kept the other 2. anyway i saw a green necklace which i also remember from my kindergarden days but it hasnt been out since then too. turns out its a mauri heirloom. haha how cool! it was my favourite necklace to play with as a small girl and i might wear it once in a while when im wearing something green.
this post is pretty long but thanks for making it here. see ya lovelies

new camera=happy

hiiiiii!!!!! im supposed to be napping but im here. as a kid, i hated naps and i couldnt sleep when i know i would miss some Nickelodeon show if i napped. i woke up at 6 and i turned off my charging camera and watched musicallys until my dad came to see if i was awake this was about 8am and we checked out the new camera together when mom woke up too and suggested we eat nasi lemak for breakfast. so dad went out to have them packed and we all ate together. really spicy stuff i tell ya. but anchovies were good. i had orange juice and we all had some grapes that dad brought back last night with him.
yesterday night i had claypot chicken rice for dinner and went to my room to watch some youtube. at 9, ma and i went to pick dad from the train station and in the car i said, 'guess what we got you?' and ma just hits me and i ignore it screeching, 'claypot rice'. then mom goes phewwww and it took me awhile to realise that she thought i was going to tell her about dad's christmas present. i wasnt offended because keeping secrets isnt really my thing but i know better than to tell in front of ma. dont worry i wont tell anyone! i got so many gifts yesterday i have the strength to be happy for my lifetime. here's a list:
-my camera(i will do a review once i get familiarized). it's a sony a 5000
-camera bag
-tripod
-ginger bread cookies
-grapes(having some now)
i was really excited and still am. i sent a picture to my friend mika-i think i've mentioned her here- and she's excited too. we're pushing to be youtubers together and all support is welcomed. hi! it's part of my holiday projects.
im in ipoh and just before the journey here, ma and i went to get our train tickets for kl and there i saw a sign that there's actually a special coach for weddings so you can get married on a train. it's both stupid and brilliant because then your guest cant leave before the reception ends and your bride cant run from cold feet. the we went to ipoh and had roasted duck for lunch. we were the first customers of the day and it was cool because it's always crowded when we go and you cant hear yourself so it's like we booked the whole restaurant. we had duck, soup(my fav) and salty vege. course we had rice too. then we sent sissy to church (i really didnt want her to go) and to the post station to collect ma's courier mail. we found a parking spot after 4 rounds of hovering and then inside we waited about 40 minutes for the sleezy, dopey people to find our mail. it's always a long wait because no one's actually working. in the station they hire a certain people on a certain bias and they cant work. if they did, there wouldnt be jams in the car park or long lines of people waiting for their stuff, you can actually hear people just lounging behind the door of the room where the mail's kept. i was angry but now i dont care, they wouldnt survive in a zombie apocalypse.
then we went shopping. ma got some pomegranate juice, i got white tea and i bought sissy some black tea. we were going to get more candy canes but we couldnt find any. then we went to get some cendol dessert and now we rest until church tonight. im smelling smoke and i think it's coming form my computer. not kidding. see ya later lovelies.

funny dreams

hey ya! a greeting, and a song title, you welcome! im talking about that song that goes 'all right,all right, all right', infinite times and glee did a cover of it that was worlds better than the original. glee cover remember to watch it. artie is my favourite character because he's small and cute like a bunny, except he's in a wheel chair. i just had a fabulous dinner of minced pork porridge and anchovies which is my ultimate favourite food. rewind to when i was was in kindergarden until i was about 9, every sunday after church, we'd have a yummy lunch of minced pork(sometimes it'd be shredded chicken)porridge, hard boiled salted eggs, pickled radishes from a can and what i went crazy for, FU YU, it's preserved bean curd and they're in blocks with chili water in a glass bottle. funny that i cant stand the taste and smell of it now, a decade later. in my childhood, looking back, my mom made a lot of the best food i have ever had and they really are the best- yummy, healthy and made with love. course i might not have been as appreciative then, but i remember that i loved all her foods like otak-otak and i was just reminiscing on this a few days ago: FISH BALL RICE! maybe you know the chicken rice ball from melacca and i dont like that very much but i absolutely love fish ball rice. as a kid i liked to have fun with my meals so my mom(the genius), whenever she made fried fish, she would have the bones taken out and stirred the meat into my rice with sweet soy sauce. when it's nice and even, she would shape them into balls and i would just pop them in my little mouth. i had to have my fish that way all the time and once when i had afternoon school i was running late and i had to have my fish lunch fast, i wouldnt touch it unless ma shaped them for me. i was cute. and super loved and happy. my breakfast today was a prefect half boiled omega egg made just for me. that was just so good. no ones makes it as good as ma.
getting really sentimental here!
before dinner i completed my math textbook questions and sissy was just waking up from her 4 hour nap.
lunch was kfc because we just happened to be in tesco getting groceries. we got things for scones and some lemons for juice. also sissy got some drugstore make up! i'm getting my make up stash this weekend and im excited to learn everything there is.
i went to tesco for the second day in the row today. we went yesterday for their car wash but that got sissy pissed because it was totally a rip off. the car was only wet but still had grass on the butt of her car and that cost 12 bucks.
pee break
when we got home, sissy had to wash the car again on the porch. she did that and i prepared lunch of leftover spaghetti and mashed potatoes. yesterday i told ma and sissy about my dream. here goes, family and i were just walking around the stadium and this lady comes barging out of the entrance saying there's a gymnastics competition and one of their girls went missing so could i just fill in for her and i go all 'yeah sure'. i befriended all the nice girls and aced the group routine but i wasnt expecting an individual floor routine so i just bounced and jumped on every mattress there was and that got me 4th place among thousands of girls. everyone was so happy for me and i got a certificate and motivational words from the judges. we went to the mall for pizza hut, me in my leotard and suddenly the floors were ice and everyone had their skates except us but we managed and got our lunch. the day before that i had another dream about our family on a safari ride. we were in those cages vehicles driving pass lions and giraffes when we came pass about 3, maybe more elephants and one had a palm tree branch skewered into its trunk and it was in pain. no one could see that except ma and i. ma then opened our truck door and sneaked up behind it and yanked the big branch out. the elephant turned and started running towards her but she was too fast for it and got to safety ahead of it.
yesterday night sissy had 3 friends over and it was my first time seeing them so it was cool. i stayed in my room learning new origami but then it became too complicated and i did half an elephant and half a parrot. i have been staying in my room a lot because it's been raining so much and because there's a python on the lose. it could be anywhere now and i dont like snakes so you can guess how i feel. im going out for a tour of the house. see you later lovelies

anything can taught

hi! can you see me waving? okay you cant because you're reading from a screen but imagine me waving and my pupils are dilated twice the norm so i look like an adorable anime character. i love waving, it's fun and a workout.
this holiday will be a productive one as long as i keep wanting to try new things. i will start with today and get on with tomorrow. i woke up at 9ish, made a cup of coffee, downed the remaining Vanila Cupcake Goldfish (i remember how hard they were to find in stores...but twas worth it) and watched something on youtube. welcome to the world of excitement!
halfway through my breakfast i thought of this magician-youtuber: collins key and he could do a thousand and one things with a deck of cards so i thought to try it. i tried copying a few youtube tutorials and i mastered the super cool shuffle called riffle shuffle which is the ones you see most often on tv with 1/2 the deck in each hand and very quickly you simultaneously release and they are interwoven. i did a musical.ly on it-find me @happysue001 and be a fan. so i tried a second trick of making a triangle with one super swift motion. it got fustrating and i remembered my best friend's old motto that anything can be taught and i got it-partly. sissy told me to vacuum and i did but now the floor's dusty again so i dont get point. i took a shower and got to my homework for an hour then got my precious laptop. i watched tutorials on how to make a sick youtube intro and tried to get a free trail on photoshop cc with a different email account. someone explain this: i could download it but when i open it it says trial has expired and this was a different email. i then tried free youtube intros but they were all watermarked darn. by now it's 1pm and i ate some potatoes chips with cheddar Goldfish. i watched The nanny for a bit and then went to make some tuna cutlets. i peeled some potatoes, boiled them, mashed them and added my tuna, one egg, one big onion, herb mix and salt and pepper. i shaped them like nuggets and pan fried them. AWESOME! i had leftover mashed potatoes so i made some instant gravy and had that for lunch. i was online window shopping and funny video watching until 5 which was when i made my super spaghetti. i had a pot of spaghetti boiling and i was mincing garlic and onions when ma got back. we made the sauce together and it was fun! we used a new recipe with mascarpone cheese so it was really rich and thick like a bolognese- carbonara hybrid. i loved it! cheese is my favourite food ever! but it looked really orange and that might be a put off for some because of the bright orange-ness that one hardly sees in pasta.
about this time last night daddy bought my new camera, a sony a5000, now if you're a regular(i'd be happy you're back) you'd know that i always wanted a camera so bad that i go to sleep crying that i dont have one. BUT NOW I GOT ONE! it's pink and it's cool. i cant wait to get on my mile-long list of filming projects i made throughout the year. i'm going to have my own photoshoot as well! i've always wanted to have paparazi. i made a mental list of make up i need to buy, which is something i want to learn and i think will be fun! i dont own plenty of makeup because how will i ever finish a whole tube of lipstick.
yesterday i thought i would make a pretty good dancer so i watched a matt stefanina tutorial and i only needed to be foaming in the mouth to pass for having a rabeez disease. how do you spell it hmm? no time to find out. mom needs the wifi turned off. see ya lovelies

free soup from pizza hut

hey everybody here!!! happy sunday! saturday was a drawl and the only exciting thing was being able to work on my new study resource website and getting most right in my math homework. i woke up at 11am today which is a surprise because im normally up early in Kampar. i think it's because i woke up in the middle of the night for a washroom break. another thing about yesterday was that an old lady said that i looked bigger than my sister so she thought i was the older one and it really hurt my feelings because slightly earlier i discovered that most of my shorts were tight. that sucks for 2 reasons: a) i have a secret dream of being a pageant queen(not so secret anymore) and b) now that i am a grown up, 'rents dont pay for my clothes anymore and i maxed my spending for the next year by getting a camera. i plan to dress in drapes and seaweed designed by my house rats: jackjack and gus! they do magic. i really have nothing to complain though. when the going gets tough, the tough get going so i plan to try my hand at altering the clothes i have into high-end fashion.
wait, i remember another exciting thing- i left a message on Trump's website. that's for me and him to know and i really hope the message got through.
today started with a healthy brunch of french toast made by my amazing sissy. and i had about 4 cups of water but no hot milo till lunch hour. i did math, my chemistry project on proteins and did you know that you can unboil an egg. all you need is a centrifuge and youre good to go. also, you can compose music with the pattern of protein unraveling. some school did it and sounded so good. for tea i had half a tube of pringles.
i need to mention here these 2 songs i have been hearing on replay and the funny thing is they're both sung by 12 year olds. why was i not pushed into show biz at 12, i have no idea. the first is 'day and night' by mackenzie ziegler and the second is 'i dont know my name' by grace van der waal. if you know chemistry then you know what van der waal forces mean. im going to get sissy to cover her song. sissy is a superb musician.
dinner was pizza hut for me and sissy and we had a booth table, really cozy and it was next to the window so we could see our car. we each had a personal pan and iced tea and a plate of fries for fun. the fries came with thousand island sauce-strange. then we saw that a survey was going to get us complementary soup and garlic bread. course i did the survey. we got our soup and bread and 10 minutes later, a waitress came bringing us another soup and we told her that we got ours already. she looked a little confused and then she asked, 'can i give this to you?' and we were like OF COURSE YOU CAN! and that's how we got free soup. if youre ever at the only pizza hut of kampar, find the waitress Aqilah and give her a friendly smile. im still happy about it. it was good soup to have on a cold night. thanks aqilah, pizza hut is lucky to have you.
after dinner we went to the mart for orange juice but they were out so we got face masks and pore peeler. we went to tesco then to get our juice and we got juice and coffee. it was a brief mall trip.
hanging out with sissy really made me happy. i hope you are happy too lovelies, goodnight

movie review

happy today guyss!! it's the last day of school for they year and it's awesome!! now i'll finally have time to do all my projects that get me so excited!! having said that, im going to end my 18 month programme on a high note so i will have some math and chemistry to do before getting my fun started. i just got my hair professionally washed and blown so it looks great but honestly it wasnt worth my 15 bucks but it was nice spending time with sissy and i gotta say thanks for taking me to the salon. my hair feels soft and it's never looked this straight in a while. im growing out my shaved head and it's at that awkward growing stage with the sides long and the back short so im styling it in weird ways. i was supposed to be back by 2.30 because my friend mika was coming from kl and we had planned to meet but she ran late and just at 4 she told me she just got to the building and it's too late for me. i got excited about it but it's okay because i get to see her during my holidays. we were just talking and i mentioned the movie the school played in the auditorium titled 'most likely to succeed'. expectations on the screening were high because of the word movie and then we were cheated 1.5 hours of our last day of school because it turned out to be a documentary film about a new style of learning the US has deemed socially acceptable. it focuses on this school-HighTechHigh in San Diego and what they are a school with no standardized tests. they have no start-end period bells, no books so how they are assessed is by an exhibition by years end. example: their project is on engineering and history so they have to create a moving clockwork machine that describes everything about it. they exhibit it and get graded on it. that's application for whatever they may have learnt from a standard school textbook.
my big take away from it was that a degree and the good grades doesnt equate to intelligence and smarts. i have a steel trap in my head so i dont worry about much. my friend in school thinks otherwise, that life hasnt be lived unless you have a degree in hand and you absolutely have a certain amount of smarts to graduate. her argument was that paper qualification gets you recognized in society and gets you to be the best version of yourself. we both want a degree, but for different reasons. me- for financial stability, her- for learning indepth about a particle accelerator machine.
anyways, other than the movie, we had pizza, junk food, sparkling grape juice and a game of saboteur. it's this fun card game and im the only one with an original set, the other kid's sets are all pirated versions of it.
yesterday i slept early at 11 which surprised me because i had a green tea frappe with chocolate chips at starbucks at 9 so i thought the sugar would have me running like a well oiled machine long. me and 3 other kids from class went to a mart to get snacks for today and we had starbucks after. the reason for starbucks was they had a buy 1 get 1 free from 7-8pm and in the end we missed the offer.
i have to have my dinner now. we are having noodles and curry. i was going to talk about me reminiscing on graduating high school last year but the food's calling for me. see ya lovelies

the nanny

hi there friends! it's 7.30pm and I have showered and after this i shall get my school work done. i last posted on monday morning so i should probably continue on from there. we went to ipoh to get sissy's bag and there it was beneath the piano, safe and sound. we were barely in the house for a half hour when we had to get started on our journey back. we went to a coffee shop, where we had rice, chapati and noodles. the place was crowded but we got the a big table and we ate. then this 50 year old punjabi man walked up to us asking if he could have a seat at our table. now ma and sissy werent around because they went to place their orders and i thought that since we have spare seats on our table, why not let him join us so i said yeah. i think im a super observant person and more sensitive to stimuli than most people like i can find Waldo in 3 seconds tops. thing i didnt notice was he was in hospital pajamas and had an iv drip bandage on his left hand, props to me, i noticed his turban. he talked to us and he was all polite and friendly and then he said he walked out the nearby hospital undischarged, after having some slip disk surgery. it was here when i noticed the attire but no regrets sharing the table.
it rained when we got on the highway but we made it here safe.
yesterday i went to school and it was the deepavali celebration so of course my friend had to go sing a tamil song. there were these kolam which is like coloured rice on the floor which actually forms an image and they were pretty good. good things about school yesterday: 1)i understood maths perfectly 2)ma packed my crossword book in my lunch bag!-love you ma and 3)dropped physics
it was also a night of discoveries because i did some spring cleaning. i found some old birthday gifts, a couple of sport medals and a wireless mouse. there's still stuff to clear and they're mostly school notes so i'm in the process of creating a Wordpress website to upload my homework and notes. when i dont get a question or any topic i often visit forums and join in student discussions so i thought if my own notes could help a lucky soul or two that'd be great. the site's online but it's still blank because i had other things to do. i will mention here when it's done. before i slept i wanted to calm down so i watched an episode of my old favourite sitcom-The Nanny. story goes... there's a lady who worked in retail and she got fired and when she went door to door to sell make up, the butler from one house thought she was a new nanny and she (by chance) she got hired. the kids are weird, the dad's good looking, the butler a joke factory. you can find full episodes online, where i watch them too.
this morning i reached school the same time as my friend and we had chem together where i'd like to believe i outshone her today! hahaha im not worried she'll see this, she only reads my blog when i ask her to. everything's a competition between us even who can carry the most cups.
i want to mention here that i have stopped hearing voices in my head. happiness is mine!!
see ya! lovelies

the darkest post ever

hello everybody!!! it is 10.30 so i have been awake for an hour now. i just got my laptop back from sissy and i am finding a truckload of files that arent mine and i cant get rid of them in case she needs them again. story goes, we arrived in kampar at 8 last night and as we unloaded the trunk, sissy went, 'shit, backpack's not here' and course she had to have an exam the next day. we couldnt drive back so we helped her make do with what we had. thankfully i was over prepared for my exams that just ended so i gave her my stash of new stationery. the biggest issue was she needed a laptop and so she took mine. i didnt mind really, i mean i saw how red-faced-angry-stressed she was so course i wanted to help. this was bigger than laughing when your buddy trips. plus i know how important exams are better than anyone. but to be honest, i was a bit unhappy that with her using good ol' lappie, she was killing the time i could have used on photoshop(only 3 days of trial left). i havent even got to trying to edit videos yet. so far i have been doing a lot face swaps of me and greyson chance(shocker) and some funny ones with my fam's faces. i legit have the best mom ever! she supports me and thinks the programme is cool and laughs at all my funny edits. to all the close minded parents out there, just chill and dont kill yourself when there's a funny edit of you somewhere. speaking from personal experience, it's the worst thing when adults think that I, a super cool teen, am set on ruining their lives by having fun with technology. okay, get this(blood's boiling), I HAPPEN TO BE PRETTY SMART, YA. AND I KNOW THAT I SHOULDNT SHARE LIKE PRIVATE INFORMATION ONLINE SO YOU BREATHING DOWN MY NECK ABOUT NOT REVEALING CRUD LIKE THAT, IS PLAIN INSULTING. adults thought i was ruining my life by getting facebook and hah! i'm still above ground. it sucks if they dont support your interests. like, 'oh im sorry i dont want to live life as a blind, deaf and dumb person to society with no positive outlook on life, have no fun and die of boredom. NOT'. it just sucks. Most adults just have no sense of humor.
so, happy thoughts! we have 40 mini candy canes in the house, cookies and candy and i get to try an apple crumble recipe whenever i want. it's monday and i am doing my favourite thing in the world-BLOGGING. i have origami to try and photoshop effects to learn. ma is bringing me and sissy to penang next month. yes, i feel much happier now.
im going to have to get ready for lunch. here's more edits OF ME that i am proud of and want to share. these are for my youtube channel and i like them. see you lovelies

needed somewhere to display this

guys i am still obsessed with photoshop and only 4 days left in trial and guess who whipped this up!

ME!

tell me if you think it's brilliant! gotta get myself to the train station now. love hearts

learning photoshop

HELLO YOU GUYSSSSS!! it has been awhile and i miss writing about my day here. im in ipoh, in my own bed, wiped from half a day at the mall. i know in the previous post i said i would post my original story about a dragon and some cranes but it physically pains me to say that it's only half done so im giving you one of those 'coming soon' adverts you see in the movies that i strongly dislike.

i had a nandos lunch, that's pretty common i know but i didnt a drink with it but i got a strawberry-watermelon-banana iceblended from juice works. i got more origami paper too. these are different from the ones i already have, like they have little shiny hearts and stars patterns on the paper and they cost more. i did shop for clothes for a while then decided against it when i remembered i might to pay for a camera sometime soon. i honestly have been waiting for far too long for my camera and -mom can vouch for this- i am the least patient person in the whole world. as a kid i would fuss if i didnt get the toy i wanted there and then because i always feared other people would buy it and the toy manufacturers would stop producing that paticular toy and life ends there. that cycle's messed up, i know but like i said, i'm impatient. it's funny because i love word search, and anyting puzzle related.

i have had plenty of time on my hands for the past 3 days since exams are over and my 9-5 job yesterday was messing with my free trial of Photoshop. It is AMAZING! I keep telling my mom i cant believe i spent one too many years not messing with the programme. for now all i know is pretty basic, like how to crop out faces, add faces, and how to draw shapes. im pretty sure there's more and i am hooked. here's my favourire project so far:

ISNT THAT COOL!! that's my squad goals. one thing i realised from messing with photoshop is that i dont enough pictures of myself. that pic of me was from last chinese new year. i dont even look like that anymore. the only album i have is from last year's grad party and chinese new year. i mean, i have short hair now! i realise that may have seemed kinda vain and i am not narcissictic, trust me. but imagine this, if i went missing, my family wont have a valid pic of me to use in the 'missing person's' flyer. i have never gotten on the selfie bandwagon(still think it's stupid that's it's in a dictionary).

yesterday dad got back form kl and it is always a joyous occasion especially yesterday because we had prawns, squid and fishcurry for dinner. prawns are my favourite food, since as long as i can remember but they leave me itching an hour later so i am on pills for that. itching sounds gross but trust me i stratch with grace and elegance. dad got yummy imported grubbies that i love and the best yesterday were the peeps. they are chicken shaped marshmellows and we got caramel apple and pumpkin spice latte flavoured ones. we got peppermint patties and goldfish too.

i fell a sleep at 12 plus, watching danny phanton, a classic-just like american dragon- and gosh i like sam and tucker so much, theyre hilarious. before falling asleep, i remembered how special yesterday actually was. it was pocky day!! and i had a box of oreo pocky for breakfast. HAPPY BELATED POCKY DAY GUYS! this morning sissy reminded me that yesterday was also singles day(gosh it's raining outside). singles because the dates, 11/11/16 so all the ones are just one. hahaha brilliant. 

i nearly forgot about this but i was dying to mention it here, i have a new website!!! yay!! PROUDLY PRSENTING, my new website . do check it out, it'll make ya a lot smarter hahaha. it's a free website, really easy to make and i had it in the editing process for nearly half a year because i was super busy with school and whatnot. i realised after visiting it was that it was ready to be put up but for some reason i kept it as draft all the while. anyways it's up now, have been for about 2 days now, send love and get excited.

before i go to my cartoons i must tell you what i had 2 dinners ago, i went a restaurant called, kbab and they served korean food so ma and i got kimchi udon and dumpling ramen and they were so good and the portions were just fish tank sized bowls and they were super good i hope we go there again. it's late now, thanks for being here, love my lovelies

last day of school

hello everybody!! im at home, it just rained and the cold air makes my blanket get worlds cozier. there's so many events that have taken place since last update, i need to get it all down... IN A LIST!
1)i took my last exam paper today!! woopie!! im ecstatic, im relieved, im optimistic about the future
2)today's election day for US! which also happens to be the day i find out that the malaysian government has no more funds for free healthcare because there was supposedly too many patients. i dont intend to go to jail(that's an amos yee's thing) but i have to say, i'd rather have Trump running malaysia than um... say the guy on the hot seat right now. also 2 seconds ago i heard that canada's immigration site crashed cause too many people want to leave now that trumps leading.
3)i have found my old favourite disney cartoon, American Dragon!! tv aired a lot more quality cartoons a decade ago compared to now. think about it: i had totally spies, danny phantom, hey arnold and jimmy neutron and they were the best shows to watch after school. not really up to date with whats the hottest cartoon now but im hearing a lot of 'sofia the first' and 'doc mcstuffings'. i will now predict the storyline for both shows which i'm sure is about right. 'sofia the first' is about this toddler, sofia who is the most vain and selfish 3 year old in the world. she has to be the first or she dies like Rue from the hunger games. every episode is about the lengths she goes to to be the first in everything including making up royal titles like having I or III or IX. wait i got reminded of my 3 year old self for a second. I MUST ALWAYS BE THE FIRST AT EVERYTHING! say we are saying our bedtime prayers, i have to say mine first and after i say them, everyone in the room must say, 'GOOD PRAYER'. kinda funny when you reminisce on the younger you. im gonna guess that 'doc mcstuffings' is about a 3 year old who watched doctor doolittle one too many times and thinks she's like his descendant except her animals are all imaginary and her parents arent worried but play along which leads to no friends by first grade. also she becomes vegetarian freaks when she finds out that meat comes from animals which i didnt know myself until late in life.
4)i had tea with the Queen of england. okay not really but i might as well had. sissy took me out for tea and i dont get to see much now that she's got all these clubs and fun activities going on but she made time to take me out for waffles so that made me a very happy me. we wanted bubbly hong kong waffles but the cafe was just about to open so we went to a different(BETTER) cafe. i got a waffle platter and it came with chocolate sauce, ice cream, strawberries and grapes. sissy just had a latte for herself.

5)my groove with origami leads me to writing up a story about dragons! that's a picture of my tower bridge model i made a while ago and on the right is a black dragon origami waiting to prance on a purple crane origami who is the sentry of the bridge. it's pretty long so i will have it as tomorrow's post. this image was what reminded me of American Dragon in the first place. if you dont know what it's about, it's about this teen new yorker who is half white and half chinese and his chinese bloodline enables him to morph into a dragon at will and he uses his powers to fight bad guys from the magical realm.
6)i need a list of things i plan to do with my short break. time to make one NOW!
also ma just got home! love my lovelies

sue and ma adventure

hello, hello there! i have a half hour for this update before i have to get dressed for dinner. me and ma will be having roast chicken at Kenny's. im just going for their muffins if im honest. ma is at the dining hall marking papers and im all cozy on my sissy's bed in ipoh. she didnt come home this weekend because she's got plenty fun assignments to do. one of them required my help-an overstatement as it was just filling out a survey- and i was super generous with my help of course.
ma took me for lunch at a nearby fried noodle place we havent been to in ages. it was next to a fruit market where we used to get our bananas and persimmons from but we dont anymore. now we get our apples and oranges from a van perched next to a main street every saturday. good lunch always makes me crave ice cream-anything reminds me of soft serve- so mom thought we'd go to the mini mart on the way home for ice cream and get some car parking coupons there too(i miss those meters and feeding coins into them). so we're in the neighbourhood right, and ma parks a great distance away from the mart, like 2 blocks and she asks, 'is this too far?'. honestly, i dont mind walking but we passed ample parking on the way and she could have picked a munch closer one so i say yes and she parks again, on motorcycle parking and makes to get down. there i was, all innocent and so confused and then she goes like, 'wait, where are we going?' and i crack up.

My laptop was asleep for 2 hours and now i have already had my dinner, im stuffed but content.

today i woke up to a phone ringing, not mine but my mom's. we got dressed and went out for a roti canai breakfast and i had a hot cup of tea. i have drank a lot of types of tea in my life and i think it's not as healthy as everyone seems to put it. i mean, the organic ones in bags with no sugar might be good but in other forms, they are sweet, probably had a tonne of pesticides in it and let's assume your heart can stop from having yellow teeth. next stops were the gas station, the bank and the market. i must describe the market, it's a goldmine. it forms a perfect rectangle, with 90 degree corners and the individual stalls, all rigid in order form a frame for the market. in the center of it, there's a green grass patch( for decor, im assuming) and bougainvillea plants. the patch's like an oval shape so i imagine if you look from above, it'll look like an egg with a green yolk. wait, it may have been Roald Dahl's inspiration in green eggs and ham. hahaha. the entrances are super high security because you're not supposed to have a car in the walking path. ready for the elaborate explanation here. there's a waist high fence, aluminum painted green. and it forms a maze like this: -_- so you have to pick left or right direction to turn to, to ultimately get to the same spot. the walking part's like a red cobblestone walk and there's stray cats sprayed everywhere like confetti after the birthday bash. i didnt pay attention to the stalls but i do know how the one selling pork looks like. the front is a curtain of meat. this butcher's stall inspired Gaga's meat dress. then on the front of it is a tree stump the height of 8 year old me and it's their chopping board. i wish i could paint the smell but i held my breath so i'll make it up. say it's the smell of the fishpond that hasnt been cleaned for a year and there's a Happy meal floating around on the surface.
im still in the same position as when i started, on sissy's bed. ma and i should have been at church but dinner took a while so we'll miss our communion. last night i fell asleep rereading 'me before you'. i cant wait for next wednesday and i will tell you all why then. i have my holiday projects to put to action soon honestly im super excited.
i think i will get to my origami now. today i will have my 3rd attempt at a dragon. yesterday was an improvement from the first time so we're getting close. 3rd times the charm isnt it?
sleep sound lovelies

dinners

hi, gorgeous people!! i had my lunch and a brilliant dessert of coffee with ice cream. it was so good!! i dont really fancy coffee but i heard of this italian-style coffee called and affogato which is black coffee with vanilla ice cream on top and curiosity won the best of me and i got rewarded. my friend is still at school but im home now, just had lunch of my leftover lasagna. my surprise for mom turned out excellent by the way! it took me an hour to make and here's my step by stop: boil pasta sheets, chop onions, garlic and veggies, fry them, add mince meat, tomato puree, water and mixed herbs and let simmer. it was so fun to assemble the whole dish and i managed 4 layers of noodles. sissy and mom loved it! she was so happy! we're going to dinner tonight, to get sushi and then get the ingredients for mom's bread pudding.
yesterday night i made the decision to close 3 of my 5 ear piercings. i had 3 on my right ear and 2 on my left. i got them some 2 years ago when it was cool, now it's just annoying to keep changing all them all the time or they'll smell rancid. i think it's important to care about appearances so you'll always be pleased when you look at the mirror and feel good. to get there, work out, use hand creams, all that minor things. the really pretty you see on tv, all plastic, smoke, mirrors and makeup. be you and no one can take away the amazing person you are. point is, whatever you do, do it for you and not to please the world cause they never notice. im growing out my hair and it's at that awkward stage where it's too short to tie but too long to be untied so i went to school looking like a kindergardener with 2 short ponytails at each side of my head. i thought it was weird but when i brought it up at class, no one had noticed. no one noticed the piercings too, a total waste of cash if you ask me.
today's paper was a good one, with only 2 questions and few subquestions. im counting the days till the 9th to be honest.
i got 55fans on musical.ly now and i showed my friends what the apps all about because they dont know so on the featured section someone did a mannequin dance to juju on that beat and it was hilarious but weird at the same time and course cause it's funny i wanted me and my friends to do it too but we wont.
last night mom gave me a notebook and i used it and i loved it! i always feel the best when i have pen and paper, like everything's all right with life. im so blessed to have words.
im thinking of watching a clip from Shark tank before getting to my work today. also the project with my musketeers are at go!
love my lovelies

lasagna surprise

hello people and non-people! it's almost lunch now but im still full from breakfast for cookies but a genius idea came to me that i can surprise my mom with dinner. yesterday mom made a sumptuous dinner of prawns, chicken and eggs and it was a tonne of work so she said she's too wiped to make dinner again so today she'll be taking me out for dinner but i thought, why not surprise her with... LASAGNA. we have everything in the house: meat, pasta sauce, lasagna sheets and other things. i'll get to it at 3pm because i dont know how long it takes to cook so might as well be early.
yesterday night i attempted 2 new origami models, a rose and a butterfly. key word here being 'attempted'. the rose never made it to the final step because i didnt get pass the 3rd step without being helplessly confused and when i showed my sissy the butterfly, she guessed it was a wilting flower. origami has been a lot of fun and tonight i will challenge myself to do paper cranes blindfolded. oirgami takes a lot to precision and focus and i like it cause it stems the flow of the thoughts youd rather forget.
i made rice yesterday at 3pm and i know because i set an alarm to remind me to get the rice in the cooker. i had a paper yesterday and it ended at 10am but most of the class stayed till lunch and we discussed a class trip. it was the worst discussion possible because every time we decide on something, someone else changes it and back to square one.
when i got home from school i texted my high school bestie and we discussed our short film we're working on. it's going to be about our gang of 4 and how we got separated after graduation. it's a work in progress, but having multiple projects really keeps me busy and i will only do and think things that are lovely and pleasing and not destructive. the NGO project is still on it's way.
i have no class today so im relaxing, maybe do origami and read a bit. sissy is out and will be back late.
i was thinking of how much this blog means to me and then it hit me that i actually had an almost-blog when i was about 7. the computers were big and white back then and i mean desktop computers not laptops. dad introduced me to microsoft word where you type things like formal documents and you can add pictures to it. he started one document with me to teach me to use it and i named the doc, SUSANNA'S STORY. everyday i would write in it like a journal but the funny part is every sentence was in numbered lines. for example:

1. my name is susanna ooi.
2. i have school today.
3. my teachers name is ms crazy.
4. dad will drive the Saga and pick me up at 6pm.

i've changed desktops twice since then so i dont have that document any more but i do recall having at least 200 sentences.
gotta dash. christmas is coming!! love my lovelies
