Happy Valentine's Day! (Oops... Slightly late to wish that!)



Anyway, look who is updating this... None other than miL resiaQ enaiD!



HAHA. Ok,I purposely typed it backwards. Still haven't had a clue who? _{(Diane Qaiser Lim - Tada! Jackpot! [MYSELF, of course!]) Yeah,I haven't been updating frequently as I am quite busy these days.}



Hmm? Valentine's Day... I really wonder why people make a big fuss about it. Seriously, any day or rather - EVERYDAY can be a special day. Why must it just be one day (14th of February) only?



Yeah, yeah... Some might say "Well? You're single that's why you don't know."



OK, tell me what did I not know? I just look at it that way. Everyday can be a special day (of course if you choose to look at it that way!). Doesn't mean only on the 14th of February IS A SPECIAL DAY.



Yes, I can understand those lovers are trying to show their love to their loved ones. Well? I'm fine with it. However, it gets irritating when people make it "all so big and fussy".




I have to say that it irritates me. Not that I'm jealous. Honestly, I am not jealous at all. It's nice if you have a lover and your lover makes it a "special" day for you (since it's Valentine's Day) to show their love. What I mean by special - "memorable".




However, people these days make it really a big fuss to the extend I feel sick of it. Yes, the sight of it irritates me. You don't need a lover to feel confident! In fact, you should be confident in the first place! Not because you have a lover, only then you will feel confident.




Ok, maybe that is a little too harsh (refering to Valentine's Day). Alright then, I'm fine with it (that is fine with Valentine's Day), as long as the girl doesn't go on and behave so ... Hmm? What word should I use? Bitchy. (Ok,I actually wanted to refrain myself from using that for my blog but oh well... There it is!)




I was in school and my two friends wanted to go to the toliet (Fiqah and Naqiah), so we went to the toliet. My my my. A lot of girls inside the toliet.



What are the girls doing? Come on... Use your brain and think! You know it's Valentine's Day and yeah, I'm pretty sure you know the answer to it.




WELL... If you don't, I'll tell you the answer. They are grooming themselves. Yes, very vain to look good. ("How do I look?", "Eh, is my hair ok or not?", "You think he will like it?" , etc.)




No, it's not a problem to me. Looking good gives you more confident. Even I,myself I've been reading skin care books. I don't have good flawless skin but taking care of your skin is a good thing to do. It's never too late. It's better if you start now.




I use a sunblock everyday for my face to protect from those Ultra Violet (UV) rays that will cause premature aging to your skin. Too much sun is bad for your skin.




So... You can't judge me as - I'm a footie (football) freak. Come on! Get a life!




I know, I've been very much into football for the past few years but when people have this thinking of you - A FOOTIE FREAK who is a fanatic, that's so wrong.




What's wrong with going to football sites daily to keep yourself updated? I don't see anything wrong with that. The thing is... I don't only talk about football only. Like I've mentioned,I have a life and so... I'm also into music, shopping, skin care products, blogging, etc.




I talk about different things to different people. I'm pretty sure you do that same too.



Some friends, I'll talk about music. Whereas some friends, we talk about shopping (Clothes,shoes,bags - SALES). Well? You should know what I mean.




I like to read but I wouldn't dare to say I am the "master of the English language". That would be wrong. In fact, I haven't been practising much these days to the extend I'm getting a bit slower.




However, I would love to re-learn again. In other words, to refresh my memory.




Anyway, all I want to say is... EVERYDAY IS A DIFFERENT DAY and YOU CAN MAKE EVERYDAY A SPECIAL DAY.




Oh yes, another thing that bugs me is that people seem to enjoy matchmaking me! I don't like.




Why do they want to see me going steady with a guy that soon? Whatever it is, I don't like the idea. Matchmaking? I mean... RANDOMLY matchmaking me. Tsk.



I'm not interested in anyone so no point trying to do such things because I'm not that type so easily agreeing to go steady for the sake of it.




I prefer to take my time. Get to know the person better and who knows what's next? To "force" someone isn't a good way. Maybe some might say, give that person a chance but it's hard to say actually.




It's rude to say... "Hey,at least someone likes you!" (In a somewhat sarcastic way)



I dislike guys who think they are so GREAT. Guys may be stronger than girls and in a way, have more power than girls. However, if a guy has a cocky attitude, that's a turnoff. I don't think I'll fall for this type of guy because I won't even bother respecting him (because he is simply too cocky).




Speaking about cocky - Some people may think that I am cocky but hey, that's not true. If you know me well, I'm not like that. In fact, I like to joke and laugh.




However, if you frustrate me (as in... REALLY IRRITATE ME to the extend I "hate"), of course I'll be upset and I may be mean and unkind towards you. Other than that, I don't think I'm mean. I consider myself as a good citizen.




Yes, I'm a good girl! HAHA. Ok, I am very monsterous when I'm angry. Even I,myself - I don't like that. I don't know but sometimes I don't realise what I say when I'm angry. Hmm? Do I hold grudges? Hmm... Maybe sometimes. Boohoo!




Darn. You know there's so many things in my mind and I don't know where to begin. It's like I feel like spilling it all out. It'll somehow makes me feel better but I'm getting tired now.




There's so many things in mind - Those thoughts in my head.




Oh well... I'm tired now.



I'll blog again soon!



Before I go, it's FA Cup weekend (Yes, I guess some might be saying - "See~! There you go again!" Yeah,yeah... Say whatever you want but I'm not an extremely hardcore footie freak).




THE BIG MATCH THIS WEEKEND IS...: MANCHESTER UNITED versus ARSENAL.




Which team do I want to see winning it? Hmm... It's a tough question. They are definitely my rival teams! Especially in the Premiership with Chelsea being 3 points behind Manchester United and 8 points behind Arsenal.




I really don't know because I don't like both teams. However, lately... It seems Arsenal has been quite cocky. So yeah...




MY LOVELY TEAM: CHELSEA will be playing at home. We will have all the players back! Yay! Oh wait, John Terry still unfit.




Anyway, as a Chelsea fan, it's nice when you look at the record that your team has set. FOUR YEARS UNBEATEN in the league. That's really cool.




Alright, that would be all for today.

I'll be back when I have the time to update.





Peace out~

Happy Lunar New Year!




My FIRST entry of the month. I do not have much time these days to blog. Hmm? Lazy? Well,probably but I had school and all. When I do have some time, I just want to de-stress myself and to blog wasn't in my mind.



Yes,I was too occupied.




Anyway, had my first Internet Fundamentals and Applications class test this week. How was it? I think it's simple. No,I am not over-confident. Yes, don't get me wrong. I just feel that way about it.




Furthermore, I guess the interest is there that is why I feel motivated about the lesson. I have been interested in those stuff since young. As young as 10 or 11 years old.




I find it fascinating and interesting. Maybe that's the reason why I started to have a MSN group. (Back then,it was called - MSN Community)




When I look at my MSN group, I actually laughed at it because it was really funny to see how much I've matured.




Back then, I was young and naive. It's more of like... The heart does what it says rather than reasoning and questioning.



17th of November 2001 - The day which I started that MSN group.




My my my. Time flies and those memories... Aww... Their all so sweet and funny. Of course, there will be times whereby you experience a not-too-pleasant experience but that's part of life and we are constantly learning.




Frankly, some not so sweet memories upsets me at times when I look back at the past. HOWEVER, my positive side of me keeps telling me that it's over and done. Just get on with life and improve yourself as a person.




I remember when I first discovered the Internet and about the Cyber World, I was like a kid who goes to this candy shop who simply gets excited and wants to try out whatever I could.




See how powerful Internet is. It attracts people. It's like a killer or rather a television drama that gets you hooked.




I don't think I can live without the Internet (not forgetting computer!). It has become an important thing in our lives. Ok, maybe not everyone uses the computer. (Think - Old people who doesn't know how to use the computer)




Well? At least, most of us will think that way about it. It's something that enables you to connect with the world and others.




Alright, moving on now. Let's not talk about that for now.




Hmm? England versus Switzerland. ...And the result? 2 - 1.




It's Fabio Capello's first match in charge of the England team and the formation he used was 4-4-1-1. (If I remember correctly!) However,it's more like a 4-5-1 formation.




Anyway, it my opinion - Joe Cole was outstanding. He is England's best player last night. Ok, some might argue. Steven Gerrard captained England last night in the absence of John Terry. (JT! I miss JT!! Come back soon!)





The players that played against Switzerland last night were:

+ David James

+ Wes Brown

+ Matthew Upson

+ Rio Ferdinand

+ Ashley Cole

+ David Bentley

+ Jermaine Jenas

+ Gareth Barry

+ Steven Gerrard (C)

+ JOE COLE

+ Wayne Rooney





^SUBS:

++ Wayne Bridge

++ Michael Owen

++ Ashley Young

++ Shuan Wright-Philips

++ Peter Crouch

++ Owen Hargreaves

++ Scott Carson





Hmm? Well,it was just a friendly match. No Frank Lampard as he is out injured. (He'll be back soon!)



Hmm? People often say that Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard can't play together. I think maybe they could but you have to work on a formation that works best.



The tried and tested formation 4-4-2 seems a little bit boring. Hmm? However, yesterday's formation wasn't has bad as I thought.



Alright, I shall not go on and on about it.




All I want to say is... I wish England the best of luck!




Hopefully under Fabio Capello the team will be fantastic.




I have been supporting England since 2002 and it's really a shame when those England fans jeered them.




They don't have patience, do they?




It's a shame actually. I won't do that. Sometimes I feel those fans are crazy. Like the recent news regarding fans buying the club or something. Yes, Liverpool fans. (No, I'm stating facts. I'm not trying to rub it on KOP supporters.)




I just feel it's crazy!




I mean... At least the American owners gives the club money to spend and they have this plan to move out from Anfield to a new stadium. What more can you ask for?




Roman Abramovich (Chelsea owner) - Like it or not, he has been giving the club money to spend and he invested money on the state-of-the-art training ground (Cobham) for Chelsea.




People often say that Chelsea buy their trophies. That's so wrong. Look at it this way - Money is an advantage. You can improve the club when you have the money. So... Why do some people say that?




Even money don't guarantee success. What I'm trying to say is... To have money is an advantage but we also need to put in hard work to make it a success.




Well... You think about it.




Ok, enough football (Yes, some might be complaining already!).






Hmm? You know... Lately, I've been thinking about rebonding. There are various types of "straightening". I'm quite fine with my hair. I mean it's not as if it's really damaged or anything like that.




I have naturally wavy hair. Yes, it curls at times and sometimes it can be straight but not so straight. It's soft and I like the fact that it's soft.




However, recently I thought about rebonding my hair.




My fringe can be quite stubborn though. It simply isn't straight. Ok, at times it is.




Hmm? I wouldn't say my hair is horrible. In fact, I feel it has improved in a way (I'm currently using Kerastase shampoo; Dermo-Calm the one for sensitive scalp).




SEE the picture - That's the one. Been using it for about two months. Currently about 50% left.


Cost me: $33 (works well for my sensitive scalp; Know any places that sells it cheaper? *grins*).




When I had longer hair, I remember seeing a lot of hair (but not really like tons of them!) on the floor when washing my hair. Now with shoulder length hair, hair loss is lesser.




Well? You must understand that you will lose some hair when you wash your hair (That's actually natural). I don't mean major LOSS, of course!




Then again, I still haven't decide if I should or not. (Hmm? However, I like the curls on my hair when I woke up today. Hmm? Oh well...)




As usual before doing anything, I will always do my research first. Yes, I feel that's very important. How do you do that? Simple! FORUMS!




Yes, going to a forum or should I say going to forums are very useful and helpful.




However, opinions will always be opinions. Some things might work for them but it might not for us. You have to understand that.




I don't know why some people really take it very seriously and make such brainless comments.




I mean for topics such as RELATIONSHIP. IF I'm bored and I have nothing much to do,I'll go and check it out but I don't think everything too serious because some comments like I've mentioned above are silly ones.




Doesn't mean you have to do that because the person who posted that comment says so.




Another thing that I had observed is that... These days people just follow what others do. Some people are unsure if they should lose their viriginity to the person whom they are with at the moment.




I have nothing against anyone but I just feel... Shouldn't it be something "special and precious"?




Opinions may differ but that's just my opinion about it.




Some would argue about that issue but at the end of the day... It's your choice.




I just hope that people know what they are doing. Even I,myself wouldn't say I'm an angel (nor would I say I'm a devil) but I'm not a perfect person and I will try to improve myself as a person as much as possible.

Alright, I'm off now~ *waves*
Peace out!~
