*gasp*

on 27 march 2005, i lost one hour of my life! ONE HOUR!!! where did it go??!!?!? who stole it?!?!?!?! *sigh* lost one hour to...

... daylight savings time... *swt*

yeaps, summer and spring... uk is now officially 7 hours BEHIND malaysia! remember that ok? :p

will someone please explain dst to me? i don't quite understand it at all... why do we have to save daylight in spring and not in winter when daylight is less than 12 hours a day??? or was it the other way around??? *puzzled* *confused*

***

oh, btw...

H A P P Y E A S T E R !!!

spring has arrived!!! flowers and babies and bunnies and all things fresh and new!!! *grins*

hmm, i wanna go amsterdam and lie in fields of tulips!!! :p

there was an earthquake on a island in indonesia yesterday measuring 8.7 on the richter scale... it was weird, when i first heard of it, the u.s.a. reported it as being on the magnitude of 8.2. a few minutes later, japan reports that the earthquake was 8.5 on the richter scale... few hours later u.s.a. changes its valuation of the magnitude to 8.7.

??!! so is it 8.2 or 8.5 or 8.7 now?! *sheeesh*

***

hmm... clue... what clue shall i leave today?

i love the nightlife here!!! *grins*

oookies, cheerios people... i am going to do the sun dance!!! :p
don't miss me too much... i'm coming back sooner than u know it!!!

*hahahaha* muka tembok betul... ;)

*huggs* and misses!!!

(didn't drink any water at all throughout the night...)

remember i was in london on 6th and 7th march? well, when i came back, my legs were hurting soooo bad... i thought, must be my heels... been walking around in them from friday til tuesday!!! so, alrights... should get better by the end of the week...

WRONG!

it got worse... from normal muscle aches radiating from thighs to calfs, to full-scale both legs CRAMPS!!! omg... every morning i wake up to cramps so bad i have to lie in bed for an hour before i can actually get outta bed and go wash up! and the pain... well, it hurts really bad in the morn, but by nighttime, the pain subsides and i'm walking around as if nothing has happened. anyways, things didn't get any better. my right lil' toe started to swell... and then followed by my left lil' toe... then my right big toe! what's going on???

so, off i went to the doctor.......

but before i did, guess what diagnosis i was getting from people?

lack of salt... "so take a cup of water and salt" "lukewarm water with salt and sugar"

rheumatism...

arthritis...

and the worse diagnosis have yet to be heard...

"OMG YOU'RE PREGNANT!!!"

and

"STD!!!"

swt. u guys who said that, u know who u are... ARE NUTS! :p

oh, and now while i sit here typing this... well, the muscle aches are kinda gone, i get cramps a lil' less often... the swelling are going down... BUT now both my knees hurt like hell... can't seem to bend them properly. :(

omg, i must be getting old..... but i am not even into my late twenties yet!!! :p

more dumb comments from dear ol' Kelantan Menteri Besar, Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat...

apparently, women who dress sexy gives off the impression that they are selling their bodies. and this is why there is a rise in sex crimes!

*nosebleed*

and he's proposing to introduce a dress code for non-Muslims... which would help reduce sex crimes.

*fountain of blood*

i wonder if anyone has ever asked Mr Smartie Pants what his definition of sexy meant...
i mean, helloooo!!?? what about the women who are dressed covered from top to toe and yet they get raped??? geeez... what on earth was he thinking? wait a minute, could he be talking about the sex crimes in western countries??? sheesh... i give up. and apparently, so do others. this man is beyond help...

“I have come to a stage where I have given up (commenting) on what Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz says. Doesn’t he realise that most sex crime victims are fully dressed from head to toe and some of them are children?"
-Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen, Wanita MCA chief.

And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come. I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
-Genesis 9:12-16

i am a subtle seductress?!?

here's what i got for taking the 'Do You Give Off a Sexy Vibe' quiz by Cosmopolitan.



am i???!!! i don't think sooo... :p

i did not know that "sexiness is all about being secured in your own skin".
no way do i "enjoy wearing enticing outfits". in fact, i do NOT wear enticing outfits. do i?
"autonomous allure"?!?! heh??? explain to me...
i do NOT "adore attracting the attention of men" but i do agree that life does not come to a "screeching halt" without them. :p
"engaging sense of self-worth and independence that makes you all the more desirable"
*nosebleed*
my parents would laugh their heads off... independence and me don't come together.
i am so dependent on them... and my frens...
geez...

anyways, for those of u interested in trying out the quiz too...
click H E R E
lemme know what u get yeah?
let's see how true this quiz is... ;)

did u know...

according to Dr Christine Dumas, that...
(don't ask me who. she was on MSNBC just now when i was watching some news online)

the best time to visit the dentist would be between 1-3pm?

green tea which, apart from its anti-oxidant properties, contain amino acid that lowers the level of ur apprehension of pain?
*hmm* no wonder these days i don't feel anything...

aromatherapy lowers stress levels and pain by 67%?

in lieu of international women's day that fell on 8 march 2005,

there's a research that revealed that women over 65 years old who take aspirins have a lower risk of suffering heart attacks and strokes. BUT there are the side effects of taking aspirins too... there's a 40% increase risk of suffering bleeding in the stomach or the brain. so don't simply go buy aspirins and take them... consult ur doctor first!!!

and,

"do not automatically assume that medication for men works the same for women."

and in other news...

a u.s. court subpoenaed a Murphy Smith to appear as a witness in a murder case.
the defendant, Albert K.Smith, had written to him while he was in jail awaiting his murder trial.
Murphy Smith was brought to court by the defendant's brother but was refused entry by a deputy.
WHY?
becos no dogs were allowed in court.
Murphy Smith is the defendant's dog, a shih tzu!!!

“The dog was friendly enough and probably would have been a very cooperative witness.” -Prosecutor Robin Green
