Review: Prisoners

Went for the movie Prisoners last week with Azrin. Since I invited him, he kept bugging me for a few days asking me what its about and all he got from me was..

"Eh, I've never even heard about the movie before, maybe its a Korean movie, and do I look like Google to u? *shoves Ipad to him*"

Time of the month, excuse me.

So anyway, I was so tired from work, and the premiere was at 9.15pm (they always start late), and the whole time I was just imagining the pile of work waiting for me the next day and all I wanted to do was sleep. Haih.

Ignoring the fact that I did doze of a couple of times during the movie, it is actually pretty good. I usually don't like mystery-solving kinda movie (because I always think that movie should be fun and relaxing, not tiring your brains out), but this one is good. It may sound typical- kids went missing, a psycho killer, figuring out reasons the kids went missing, capturing the wrong guy and all, somehow this movie has a little...twist!

Well, you guys gotta watch and find out.

Oh btw, please eat before you watch the movie. It's two and a half hour long and half way through the movie, I wanted to jump in the screen and help the father solve the whole shannanigan just so I can have my roti canai earlier.

Hehe.

Silly Mistake

Azrin promised me a shopping trip to Singapore as sort of a...graduation present I guess. This time we were going to drive there because there will be more space to put them shopping bags, plus we can drop by JPO for more shopping it'll be more fun for us to drive each other crazy the whole way.


I was already google-ing handbags a week before the trip and listing down food addresses, until a few days before the trip we realised.......

We need at least 6 months, and our passports are expiring next month.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Oh. I. Is. Sad. *kiss gorgeous Gucci bag I've been eye-ing for a month goodbye*

I'm sure Azrin's wallet, bank account, card all are screaming of joy!

You know, God still loves me because I found out, JPO are opening more amazeballs stores...soon!

*dances*

Girls, November, what say you?

Arabian Night

Ya habibi!

It was so hard for me to think of a theme for Dad's birthday party, when suddenly..*ting*

"Arabian Night"

...but we had it at a Chinese restaurant...   -_____-"

Shafiqah, Azrin and I spent nights cutting camels and palm trees to decorate the place. You're welcome, daddy. I gave up half way and chucked everything to Azrin. Seriously, I don't have the patience for these things

*crossing Party Planner off career choices*

The three of us reached the restaurant earlier to decorate the place...

Sorry lah, this is all you get when a lawyer and an accountant decorate. Cut and stick.

....and the birthday boy's here!

We forced him to be a little bit more..arabian! Haha.

Happy Birthday Abah!! Love love love.

Sibuk only lah that little one.


"Abah, I'm charging the bill to your account yea, thanks" -Me

Big Six O

Good morning!

Today is Daddy's birthday! Well, if you ask him he'll say he's 45 -_____-'

I'm here to tell you he's 60! Ok lah, if people ask, I'll discount him a year and say he's 59. Between you and I. Haha.

Anyway, I would like to wish my Daddy a very very Happy Birthday!

Dad: Adik, birthday dinner tonight

Me: Errr...oh ya! It's your birthday. I forgot and I have plans. Sorry. Can we do it during the  weekend?

Hahaha...little did he know, I have a little surprise planned for him. 

My two little helpers helping me with the surprise, I'll story you later ya. If you squint, you can see..... camels. There's your hint! Hehehe.

Happy Birthday Abah!! See you tonight! 

I hope he doesnt open my blog today. Oops.

Bang Bang

Crazy traffic today!

Got home from work, was chit chat-ing with Daddy when Sarah called...crying

"Cik P.....hit......need.....help.....*cries louder*"


What?

Before I knew it, she was outside my house....

"Stupid car hit me and ran off"
Oh dear.

Teman-ed her to the police station in case she decided to cry and roll around the station floor. My friends know I'm not so good with solving problems. I'm more of a "crack-joke-and-laugh-problem-solved" kinda person. So I was joking around with her until her mood was better. Ended up with me telling the police lady about what happened and Sarah was like this:
 

Putting on make up! -_____-'
I did'nt even see any Aaron Aziz-looking policeman. Haih.

Me: Why the hell are you putting on make up NOW?
Sarah: Because I dont look...hot
Me: Honey, that one cannot help already lah. No amount of eyeliner can help
Police lady: *burst out laughing* Sorry cik...
Sarah: You're so mean
Me: Well, that's what friends are for *flips hair*. Now send me home, I'm hungry


Haha. Ok lah, kesian her lah.


Anyway, Happy Merdeka guys!! Love love love my country *muah*

Review: We're The Millers

I saw the preview of this movie around last month and I nudged Azrin and said we HAVE to watch this movie. Plus, Jen Aniston's in it...Oh Rachel Greene....

I got a pair of tickets to the premiere yesterday (I've been watching a lot of movies lately huh), and I was so excited! I grabbed Shafiqah to go with me (bye bye Azrin haha).

First of all...the movie was amazeballs!!! Seriously, I laughed so hard, I was hungry after the movie (I had chicken rice right before the movie -___-'). I'm just gonna spoil it for you guys a teeeeensy bit. The movie is about a stripper, a homeless girl, a geek and a drug dealer pretending to be a family to smuggler weed into the US. Btw, I also learnt that drug dealing and drug smuggling is different *flips hair*

Homaigad, when Jen Aniston was..stripping, my mouth was literally open, staring at the screen without blinking. How to get a body like that? Diet starts..tomorrow. Ngeh, who am I kidding.

Somehow every few minutes I had Shafiqah elbowing me "Omg Dila I'm so nervous!!", I don't know why...you have to ask her. Or watch the movie and tell me if you were feeling nervous. Haih.

This movie is highly highly recommended. Instead of paying rm10 to watch some stupid not highlarious zombies, move that cursor to "We're the Millers" and purchase it. After Thursday, that is. Hehe

Enjoy!

Day 3: PD

Since raya in KL is so....dull and boring, Azrin and I decided to go to PD to beraya at Sofia's. Closest we could get to a 'kampung'.

...and look who decided to tag along..

The whole freaking way. Its like bringing a puppy along. Haha.

Reached Sofia's house and of course our dear housewife have to serve us. Ngawh. Lucky Hazren.

Went to Mellina's house later, and its picture time!

Look!! Sarah and Mel so tall right? Must be the ketupat...

Not! Freaking stood on a stool *shakes head*


Azrin and I had to rush back to KL in the evening to help out with his brother's open house. It was a tiring day, but super fun hanging out with my girls...and the puppy.

Review: KL Zombie

I got a pair of invites to the Premiere Screening of this movie. Means I get to watch it before you people haha!

Well, I'm gonna save you one and a half hour here.

Honestly, I don't like the movie. Maybe because it was 40 minutes delayed. Maybe because throughout the movie there was this "teeeeeet teeeeeeet" sound when they're trying to say something...bad? (not even curses)

The storyline was pretty crap. I mean, suddenly one person turned into a zombie, and after a few hours the whole KL turned into a Zombie-town? Say-whaaaat?

Well, I left the movie about 15 mins before it ended so I don't know the ending. Maybe it was just all a dream haha. Haiyoh, serious lah, I don't know what the motive of the movie is. Some parts were funny, but that's about it. For a movie Zizan's acting in, it is not up to the humor level its suppose to be.

Quite dissapointing.

90 minutes I'll never get back. Haih.

Leading the Blind

Azrin was telling me his journey today and I felt something was...not right

He was heading to KL this afternoon and genius him took the LRT/Monorail/Star (I really don't know which one is which). Of course my Einstein boyfriend took public transportation without doing his research first and ended up texting me every few minutes to ask me to Google.

Types "Public Transport Jalan Raja Laut"

Fail. Nothing made sense to me.

After a while, he stopped texting me so I thought he figured he out himself. Either that or someone kidnapped him haha.

Later during dinner, he told me his experience....

"I was helping this blind lady getting on and off the train...she was heading to work...I was so touched that a blind person was so hardworking while sometimes perfectly healthy people would rather waste their time lepaking....I asked her where she was going, turns out we were heading towards the same direction....and she told me to just follow her since I dont know the way.."

"So the blind led you???"

Oh.

Review: The Conjuring

I had nowhere else to go on the second day of raya, and Daddy's leaving for Johor in the evening so I was bored at home, kinda sick of looking at ketupats. 

Azrin's brother told me that The Conjuring is a good movie, because he knows how much I love horror movies. Forced both of them to watch the movie with me. Hehe.

Not a good idea, since I'll be alone at home for the weekend -___-'


Dad: Adik ni dah macam orang dulu-dulu, raya pergi tengok movie

Haha.

I thought the cinema would be empty, but I was surprised to see so many people in baju kurungs holding a bag of popcorn, waiting for their movie. In fact, The Conjuring was quite full.

So this is raya in KL, huh?

The movie was just so-so. Not scary at all, although Azrin was screaming away in the cinema. Storyline, not bad. This whole kena rasuk thing, nothing can beat Malaysian/ Indonesian movies. Just the process of us having our ustaz shoo-ing away ghosts/devil is waaaaaaay more scary than Hollywood movies definitely.

The setting of the movie is very nice, though. Really gives you that creepy feeling.

..also, the doll!! Haiyoh. Cute, but eeeeeeeeeek!

If you have a couple of bucks to spare, go watch it.

Day 1

Woah its already the forth day of Raya, and I'm so sick of having raya food that Azrin and I had McD for breakfast this morning. Haha

Anyway, this is probably the 3rd or 4th Raya I celebrate here in KL and I still find it so boring compared to celebrating it in the kampung.

My Raya Day 1:

Wake up- Shower- Eat- Chill with family- Eat- Take pictures- Eat- Eat- Sleep

Because my relatives (mom and dad's side) all celebrate raya outside KL, so I'm here with Dad, stepmom, brother, SIL, niece, Azrin.

Haih.

Dad+ Stepmom left for Johor on 2nd Raya.

Brother+SIL had a little weekend getaway

Azrin went to his relative's houses

= Me. Alone in my baju kurung, playing Candy Crush with a jar of Kuih Tart.

Oh, but I did go to Sarah's grandparents' house hehe

Selamat Hari Raya. Tomorrow = work *cry*

Till we meet again..

Good morning, guys!

I was a bit emotional this morning on the way to work, with the Raya songs playing continuously on radio and the fact that I missed my sahur and it was only 8.45 am but my stomach was already playing along the raya songs. It was sad. One month have passed by so quickly. It was like, blink blink and poof- one month gone!

Our last day of Ramadhan. No more terawih, no more Pasar Ramadhan, no more buffet buka puasa.

Alhamdulillah, we made it through peacefully.

Insyaallah, we'll meet again in a year.

Hope all of you had a blessed and wonderful Ramadhan.

Anyway, I would like to wish all of you Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin. My apologies for any wrong doings. Have a great Raya!!

Drive safely when you guys balik kampung please!!

Graduation Buka Puasa

Oh how I miss blogging! Been so busy with work, preparation for raya, baking and everything (haih)

I have'nt even had time to see my friends!

Sofia and I have graduated (at last), and even though I did not attend my graduation ceremony (because my family was too busy for me, sob. Kidding!), our friends meet up for a buka puasa at Ayam Penyet, Sunway. I swear, even for a small get together/dinner, we had to re-schedule a few times. Everyone's so busy! Growing up sucks :(

So sweet of Fara to buy us presents. Ngawhhh *glares at Sarah*

Hahaha.

We all went back to Sofia's for desserts after. Durian Crepe- to die for omg!

Even though I "graduated" 2 years after I started working (seriously VU, pay so much also so kelam kabut), I must say...

"We did it, PO!!!" *high five Sofia*

All those sleepless nights, pretending to have food poisoning for an MC, accidentally wore a short skirt to Islamic Studies and wondered why I failed it (-__-") and skipping a million classes! I did it! I got my degree in Accounting/Finance. Without a calculator *flips hair*

So proud of myself. Now, should I continue my Masters or CPA? Decisions, decisions

Koko Flakes

 I've been busy, with raya coming up and stuff (excited!). Well, I've been busy baking, if any of you are asking. Haha.

Baking what you may ask?

These!

At first, I baked my favourite Koko Flakes just for fun (seriously eating it while watching TV-evil!), but now it has become a little raya business for Azrin and I. Alhamdulillah, this is the 3rd year I'm selling the cookies.

To be honest, I sell it just to share what is probably the only thing that I can bake and I find it so yummy. Sweet, gooey, crispy....*gulp*

Yes, I'm an accountant, but I really don't know how to count the costs and whatnot properly, I'm selling it for RM 18 for a balang of 25 pcs. I don't even know if I'm making profit. I hope I do..haha. All those years learning debit credit- no use lah!

Anyway, if y'all want to order, do let me know. RM 18 and I'll probably send to you, FOC. If you're nearby, that is. Haha.

Ok, gotta make more cookies. Toodles!

Ramadhan

 All the food, for four boys *shakes head*

This is what happens when we take food ikut nafsu before the azan.

Pfft same with me, lah.

Everyday, I tell myself I'm going to break fast with a few kurma and go pray maghrib first before eating...

But I'm scared people will finish up my Asam Pedas by the time I get back.

The price I have to pay = That feeling of Asam Pedas coming back up and out when I sujud later.

Every. Single. Year.

Anyway, I'm five days late, but Happy Fasting Everyone! May all of you have a wonderful and blessed Ramadhan. Let's stack up our pahala, ey?

A Day Out With Fa

Three days MC, what to do?

Take Little Sofia out!

First stop, The Curve.

Wrong move, because they have that kiddy theme park/indoor playground thing. So it was either hear her cry or put her on that pony thing.

I was getting bored of the same 'Happy Birthday' and 'Old McDonald' song playing over and over, but of course don't seem to bother her.

Second stop, Azrin's office. I must say it one of her favourite place to lepak when she's with me

"Bobo opishh pisshhh adek"

A room full of balloons, Azrin and Ashraf (Azrin's brother). Heaven for Little Pei.

"Fa opisshhh"


Got bakat to be a parent ah?

Super Lady

On saturday I had this unusual pain when I err, urinate. I felt like pee-ing every few seconds, but when I'm in the toilet, only a few drops or nothing comes out. I ignored it at first, but after a couple of hours, it got really uncomfortable.

Seriously, it hurts like *&$#$%^&* when I pee. I actually cried while sitting on the toilet.

I got up and saw blood. Counted my days, thinking positively it might be my period, but nope, not possible. After about 20 minutes I started vomitting.

Ok. Blood, vommit, now it looks familiar.

I didnt know what to do because I was alone, Azrin was in Penang and my father was in JB. Plus, I hate troubling other people because I'm scared people would think of me as a drama queen when nothing is serious. I've had this attitude since I was little. That's why I waited till the last minute to get someone to bring me to the hospital due to my appendicitis (doctor yapped away when I was at the hosp because it was really really bad heh).

Anyway, Superwoman me packed some clothes, grabbed the car keys and a paper bag (just in case I puked on the way) and head to the hospital.

"Urine infection, its pretty bad."

I have zero tolerance in pain, right after that stupid thing was on my hand, I ran out and called Azrin and started crying like a baby. Serious, so sakit okay! And I was alone....so kesian right?

 They wanted to tahan me in the hospital, but I went all "hell no, na-uh" on them and promised the doctor and nurses I'll drink lots and lots of water.

Painkillers killed the pain, so I threw my bottle of water away and treated myself with some rootbeer float for tahan-ing the pain.

Hee.

No More Candy

I was happily lying down on my bed, playing Candy Crush while watching Once Upon a Time, when suddenly my phone died.

Switched it back on, go to Candy Crush...

"Level 1"

*world stops*

Switched it off and back on. Same thing.

This is not happening, seriously. Tears dropping down my cheeks. I can't believe my Candy Crush was reset. All the levels I went through, all the money I spent on "Five Extra Moves", all the times I stare at my phone until I get my 1 life again, all gone! Gone!!!!

Honestly, this was more depressing than the time I failed Tax Law, twice!

I was at Level 286, guys. You know how hard it was to get there...? Haih.

Called Azrin to tell him about it...

"Who ask you to go play? Spend money on unnecessary things. Waste money. I told you to stop playing long time ago. Things are just gonna get spoilt at last and all your money, gone! Padan muka lah"

-_________-"

What a way to kick someone when they're down.

Review: Pee Mak

I'm pretty sure we've all heard/watched the famous Thai ghost movie- Nang nak. The one with the husband who came back from war and lived happily with his wife and baby, when actually they're ghosts, and so on.

They had a re-make, Mae Nak after that. Now, its Pee Mak. At first I was like, "Ngeh, its gonna be the same thing, innit?". I read the review and it said....

"Comedy"

Err......

What? How?

*Tickets Purchased*

It was good, suprisingly. Same storyline, but they made it funny. Not in a spoof way, but just the way they act out the whole movie. Scary, funny, sad.

The ending was so touching and sad, I coulda sworn even Azrin cried. Bet he's thankful the cinema is dark haha.

Y'all should watch it!

Btw, the ghost is so hot!
