didn't know why i counted 5 days in a week.. so i thought it is going to be 39 days till i fly home.. then i look at my calendar..
"why is it still 42 days!!! it was 42, 3 days ago!" :p
fine... 7 days a week.. 8 weeks remaining.. meaning 42 days left.. so this is monday.. so 41 days and counting...

eventhough i am ocean apart from my family, i still feel that i am responsible to take care of my family well being... when my sisters complaint about my brothers, i have to confront my brothers in behalf of my sisters.. when my parents couldn't stand my siblings behaviours, i have to confront them in behalf of my parents.. if the inlaws is doing something that is troubling my parents, i have to set things straight and they have no choice but to hear me out... at least the issues are known by both parties... that is my role.
and, when my sisters told me that my parents are sick (parents never tell when they are ill), i will call them up and wish them well...
it is my business to know it is my family
who ever said that being the youngest is just a breeze you are totally wrong
but i am loving every second of it why? because i love my family gonna make you bleed if you hurt 'em
(now you see why i absolutely love the movie Taken)

Swine Flu
A new strain of swine flu that has killed as many as 81 and sickened more than 1,324 in Mexico has spread to the United States and is raising fears of a possible pandemic.
what is it?
Swine influenza is a respiratory disease of pigs first isolated in swine in 1930, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
how do you get infected?
Human infection happens intermittently, with most cases occurring when patients have direct contact with pigs. But cases of an infected person transmitting the swine flu to others have also been documented
Human-to-human infections do occur similar to the way the human seasonal flu virus is transmitted — through coughing, sneezing and coming in contact with a person or object with the virus.
People cannot become infected by eating pork or pork products. Cooking pork to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit kills the virus as well as other bacteria
what are the symptoms?
Symptoms are similar to those of the regular human influenza virus: fever, lethargy, lack of appetite and coughing. Some who have been infected with the swine flu also reported having a runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
how is it treated?
Four antiviral drugs are licensed to treat the disease in the U.S.: amantadine, rimantadine, oseltamivir and zanamivir. Most of the viruses are susceptible to all four
There is currently no human vaccine for swine flu
Alhamdulillah Perth inda kana, mudah2 Brunei inda kana jua.. flu ani merebak di kawasan US, Europe, Canada, etc saja..

some ritual i tend to forget or rather have no time doing it.. or maybe couldn't-be-bothered-because-no-one-is-looking-at-me...
before i fly back to Perth in Feb, i've puchased SK-II products (yuph, the whole set) and used it for 3 weeks..
to be honest, the first 10 days were painful, because little breakouts observed around my mouth area... but after 3 weeks i have to say, i was impressed.
in December 2008 In February 2009 ( :p i didn't have other picture that imphasize no-makeup-on) i only put on concealer around my eyes and eyeliner i don't know how to describe it.. hmm.. Nyarai told me earlier this sem that my skin has this no-need-to-wear-makeup-look...
so i started re-using these products (in combination with Alpha-H products).. puting on facial mask, etc.. then got me thinking..
owh yea~ hahaha.. now i am starting to agree with you syam... :p

she read my previous post and she concluded that i am more girly than her.. i totally disagree with her at first...
she asked me to think hard... hehe... she even said that my table is filled with more girly stuff than hers... not that i 'actually' have a table for them..
so is it true? nyeh! (expression was once created by Adi-Si-Syam), i don't see it when i am in Perth..

aku ada discuss sama kawan2ku sini, yang tinggi sifat keperempuananNya pasal hair straightener.. hehe..
Girl: you can get a decent one for $50 me: (membuat muka "bila jua ku kan pernah settle with 'decent' products")
hehehe.. jadi aku jalan2 arini, mencari2, compare2 harga.. skali aku jumpa ani~ AKO SOKA!!! hehehe.. it is one of the best kind, in-line with GHD ones.. it is just that this brand (Elkie) is cheaper. hair salons use this kind as well..
quote from website "The elkie is no mere straightener, it is a "creative styler". Designed to straighten, curl, flick and lift, the elkie is the perfect artistic tool to see your creative vision realised. Disobedient and unsinspired locks quickly and easily evolve into a work of art, thanks to the world class design and innovation of the elkie creative styler"
The elkie features:
1. 100% satisfaction guarantee. The makers of elkie are so confident you will heart their amazing styler as much as us, they guarantee it! Try the elkie for 30 days and if you are not 100% satisfied you can bring it back and swap it for another straightening iron.
2. universal voltage. Now traveling overseas doesn't need to mean perpetual bad hair days!
3. ionic technology
4. slimline ceramic tourmaline floating plates
5. automatic switch-off if left unattended for 30 minutes.
6. adjustable heat control up to 2100 so you can stop torching fine or damaged hair and choose the right temperature for you hair type.
7. BONUS thermal pouch, sectioning clips and paddle brush to help you create greatness.
setelah berapa tahun aku memerhatikan kawan2ku di brunei (uhuk uhuk)... durang selalu usai2 rambut durang, colour2, kriting2... skali durang komplain sal rambut rusak..
jadi aku ambil langkah berjaga2.. hehe
from left to right 1. shampoo 2. conditioner 3. anti-snap treatment 4. thermal resist 5. serum 6. hair supplement (di minum~) 7. hot oil treatment
hair supplement and hoil oil treatment atu aku pakai sebulan udah.. inda lagi ku brapa makai. anti-snap atu untuk kuatkan rambut supaya inda putus2. thermal resist supaya rambut inda rusak berpanaskan saja. serum untuk kurangkan 'frizz'.. baru2 ani jua ku start pakai conditioner.. nyeh.. dulu aku pikir conditioner ani nada kegunahan... sal dulu2, kirakan kalau pakai conditioner ani 'COOL' and 'MATURE'..
huwahhh.. aku educated lah sal rambut udah...

so university resumes tomorrow..
it was rather relaxing.. i shopped alot, watched movies, tv shows.. sure sure i did some studying and did some revision for midsem exam tomorrow.. owh yeah.. TOMORROW!!! hhahaha..
one thing i must say, throughout this study break i.blogged.everyday. not just one post, a few posts a day...
game on
Dariah; 9:35 PM
My dear friend,
lots of the time you didn't ask for help, didn't ask for attention, didn't ask for a shoulder to cry on.. you never ask people to acknowledge the greatest things you have accomplished, you never ask anyone to remind you how beautiful, high achiever and unstoppable person you are
you never ask for anything, yet you have always been there for us girls no matter how busy or messed up your life could be; you always put a smile on your face and focused on our issues
so, eventhough you didn't voice out in time of need... i will be there
if you fell down and tried to walk off the pain... i will help you up and walk with you
if you said that you will be ok after a lost and asked me to leave you alone... i will give you space
but i will make sure my phone is by my side, fully charged and my car is ready.. just incase you need me to dash back to your place..
love you girl
i have tears for you

so i started my day early today. i went to the government hospital to participate in a Flu Vaccine Study.
why was i interested? they pay anyone who participated $50 per visit!! hahaha.. easy money!! (gila harta??? so what?)
so this study involves two visits..
first: the initial consultation plus the vaccine second: a first follow up (after 3 weeks)
so that means $100!!! hahaha... and it gets better.. for the duration of the study, i am asked to monitor my body temperature.. so the staff gave me a Thermometer.. guess what???? i get to keep it!!! wohoooo~~

time for a break. watched ProjectRunwayCanada Season 2 Finale
who cares who gone into the top three, being fair and unfair... it was a clear cut... his collection was exquisitely, breath-takingly, dead-gorgeously, jaw-droppingly beautiful.
opening speech
Sunny: this is my final battle
ending speech
Sunny: i thought about quitting fashion if i don't win this competition.. now it is a different story..
he continued: i am excited about the future, and i think i can be 'great-er'
to my eye Sunny is a true star: he is unstoppable, concise perfectionist, high achiever, strong competitor, high quality fashion designer...
thought of quitting, not actually quitting have to be at the rock bottom in order to go up

i never watched Hannah Montana.. just sounds childish.. the phase watching Lizzie McGuire has ended.. so didn't want to watch another that is similar..
so this Miley Cyrus plays the Hannah Montana role, yes? ok, there is always this gig like ok, you act first.. then you become a singer.. like Hilary Duff, anak si Lohan... etc..
anak si Duff, aku suka lagunya SomeoneIsWatchingOverMe OST of one of her movies...
sekali aku impress lah dengan si Miley ani... lagu nya yg satu ani TheClimb mature sikit.. suaranya pun 'basar' udah bunyinya..
Dariah; 4:12 PM
so i was thinking about my hair today... thinking of why my hair is so flat and straight....
before my hair had volume, bigger... you know UMPHHH~ so i came up with this theory...
when hair is short/layered, it is lighter.. it tends to stick out abit.. so have volume..
from a tree perspective application of the theory
so when the branches grow, or added weight to it.. it will fall straight down - appearing flat application of the second theory it is like say... if you tied a stone at the end of a string.. gravity pulls it down...
since hair is longer (not layered).. it is definitely heavier... explains the no volume, flat, straight hair..
hahaha... overanalyzing... good fun..

i woke up with this song playing in my head.. the words were crystal clear and i knew it by heart
"don't you ever wish you were someone else you were meant to be the way you are exactly"
"don't you ever say you don't like the way you are when you learn to love yourself you are better off by far and i hope you always stay the same cuz there's nothing about you i would change"
...
"i think that you could be whatever you wanted to be if you could realize all the dreams you have inside don't be afraid if you got something to say just open up your heart and let it show you the way" "believe in yourself reach down inside the love you find will set you free believe in yourself you will come alive have faith in what you do, you will make it through"

..the people you surround yourself with, defines you...
this semester i felt less inspired because
1. my 'real-life' idol JayLee, a PhD student in Human Movement moved out of college 2. Fatima (my homey) full of energy tutor/always have brilliant ideas, also moved out of college 3. Milla - English Literature extraordinaire has graduated and moved out of college
basically these powerful ladies who always share their uplifting thoughts to me had left me... as a result, left me uninspired and dimmed.

then, it was hilarious...
as i continued on.. i had a great laugh all the way through then just over half way, i cried so hard... i cried because that cat said something about her 'person'...
i was hyperventilated... i gently reached her face on a screen when she said those words... other people might not get it or even noticed it... and let alone understand it...

Dariah; 10:05 PM
alhamdulillah...
now i know why i am so irritable.. the things i did since last Friday was 'not plan'.. i was in the go-with-the-flow mode..
so that mode is not working for me, i know that know...
how did i finally come to this conclusion? well, i was searching for stuff to buy just now.. so googled some potential stores that could possibly stock them. then, i list down the phone numbers.. and plan to call them up tomorrow. i feel so incontrol and excited.
ok, the searching for places is 'controllable'.. meaning i can solve it there and then... calling the places up is 'uncontrollable' to some extend.. meaning, i couldn't call them up after hours... so i have to wait till tomorrow morning.. i can deal with that..
also, i didn't strictly follow my daily-study-plan... i just go with how i feel that day... so, big no-no
great... i feel better now... i solved some issues, and accepted some of it to be uncontrollable.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SANTI~~
she was my English tuition teacher back in high school... it was a one-on-one session so i really liked it... you know~ so that i wouldn't make a fool of myself whenever i asked obvious-lame-a-blonde-girl questions.
so, she taught me how to read confidently, clearly, loudly and polished my pronunciation. also, she taught me how to be better in having a conversation and better in interviews.
i remembered after we had that interactive question-and-answer session, i had a MOCK-O-level oral exam.. my school English teacher, Mr George reported to me that the examiner was very impressed.. and the examiner quoted "Wow!" in her report..
hmmm... i don't remember when was the last time i really had a good-serious-proper-grammar conversation. nowadays, i simply use expressive-non-verbal words and mixed with malay vocabs..
maybe i should have that tutoring class again with you Santi :D :D :D..
so that i could shine again ;)
anyways... have fun today~

everything just feels so wrong... so aaarRRGGGghhhhh...
i was playing keyboard with a temper just now...
normally you know~ people play the piano with all this beautiful-lovey-dovey-happy emotion...have anyone ever play the piano with anger???? without breaking them off????
i want to know because when i'm feeling happy, i play the keyboard.. when i'm tired i play the keyboard.. when my heart tickles... yes, i play the keyboard...
now that i am feeling irritated.. i don't know how to express it...perhaps, i need to learn the hardcore-rebellious-head-banging songs...
i don't know...

my current phase: i get bored easily..
my exercise regime last month
1. skipping: average 10minutes at 85% max HeartRAte 2. aerobics: 10minutes moderate to high intensity 3. power walk: 20minutes moderate intensity 4. bodyweight weight-training: big volume, low to moderate intensity
so yeah, kinda bored with that program... i think i'm going to start swimming again... and perhaps explore other 'free' fitness training that i can improvise..
i don't want to join any LesMills classes... BodyCombat, BodyPump, BodyJam... pretty redundant... i normally lost interest after 2nd or third class...
not just exercise regime that i'm bored off.. my uni schedule bores me as well... i need to do some more.. i don't know... i have this thirst to do extra work, seek extra knowledge... just extra 'something'...
i played keyboard just know.. i mastered one song Lucky, by JasonMraz.. my blog song... after that, i got bored... played another song, I'm Yours... i lost interest...
man... i'm feeling restless..

did some sprinting today then i was distracted
a white glowing cat looking at me, a calm looking cat.. i tried to continue on with my sprinting but i had go back to pat the cat...
i tried to make some cat noise... then, he couldn't stop following me and wrapped his body around me...
i love cats... i adore cats.. whenever my siblings and i saw a cat wondering around, we immediately made cat noises.. it was simply an instant reflex...
cats make me smile, make me giggle, make me happy...
this particular white cat made me remember my childhood.. my first cat was white.. and some people call me Putih (white) back home... so maybe that is the reason why i was given a white cat hehe..
when people call me Putih or KakaPutih my heart just melt... my dad gave me that name, i was named after his mother...
when i was a kid, the first thing people noticed about me was my pale skin... some people called me Mayat (corpse) several times.. but you know what, i was proud of it..
Putih is my name, it is my skin, and being pale is my trademark.. i was the kid who once thought that she was invisible.. so when people call me Putih, i know that they could 'see' me...
ish!! si Dah bah.. yang putih2 pakai kacamata

yesterday, i refused to touch/read/think of any uni-related work.. so i've watched a few movies.
1. twilight 2. taken 3. i am legend.
twilight - it was good. but lame special effects..
taken - i announced this to be The Movie of The Year 2009 (last year's was IronMan)
i am legend - i only watched the first 20 minutes of it.. why????? it scared the shit out of me!!! (watched it around 10pm)
so... i continued on watching i-am-legend today... i started around 2-ish i paused and paused so many times... and finally finished it at four pm.. gosh!! that movie kept me on the edge of my seat man... although it was bright outside and kept my window open.
anyho~ i don't how old the movie Taken is but... i love this movie... i was watching it alone and boy was i excited... i was shouting and punching and jumping... and and... and... i felt fantastic after watching it.. damn... job well done...
i've watched other movies like SlumDog Millionaire, Ayat2 cinta, Domino.. etc.. some old movies some other nights... but last night was easy-breazy-beautiful-relaxing day... (ermmm not until i played i-am-legend) hahahha

was in Exercise Physiology class (obviously this is my fav class), our lecturer mentioned about this white Caucasian guy who won the 100m sprint in the Olympics back in the 70's. apparently he was the last Caucasion to win this run because after the 70's, gold medalist for 100m sprint were african american - all of them...
so, we were studying this white guy's record times and looked at his history abit.. when he was 14 years old he was enrolled to a Sport School. this school was for potential elite athletes. his record at that age was 13seconds for 100m sprint. 8 years later, he joined the olympics and finished the distance in 10seconds. he won the gold medal.
so, here is the data. at 14 - 13seconds.. at 22 - 10seconds. it takes 8 years to lower the time by 3 seconds. it was kinda bizzare when i first heard of it.. training for so many years just to be 3 second faster..
but i tried to think professionally. 3 seconds could be a long time to an athlete's eye. and it all comes down to how the body works, how the body is trained.
the moral of all these. whenever we try to get what we dreamed of.. we've tried and tried and tried, still there is still no sign of improvement... well, maybe there is... we were just to blinded to see the little things we've accomplished because we were to busy looking up to the bigger picture... it takes weeks, months, years to make it happen... so, make a record, or have a reflection time, or self-evaluation session for ourselves... see where we were, and compare to where we are now.. what are the differences? list down any accomplishment... list down any room for improvements, that needs attention..
so for this guy, perhaps eight years was nothing for him...
