Will you "like" my Facebook status?

I love Facebook, that's established. Love it so much in fact, that I started to do many crazy things. Most of it involving Facebook statuses. You know, the one where you post a status(usually containing questions or challenges), somebody go and "like" it and you have to do that particular challenge. Like this.

It was very silly. I was worried about the 4th "like" but I was absolutely sure there will be only 3 "likes" since I figured that nobody would be brave enough to go for the fourth one. I closed my laptop, took a sip of my cold Milo and watched the news on the TV. After a few moments, I went and check my Facebook. You know what I saw?

It was a full house. Somebody did become the 4th person and it was my friend, Fauziah. Meaning, a week of "in a relationship" with her. I could just say "Haha.Nda payah la baitu.Main-main saja" and go on with life. Sadly, my curiosity got the best of me (I want to see people's reaction) and also for the fact that she challenged "Bah,request bah kalo berani.Ni malam ah". And thus, inilah yang terjadi. Jeng jeng jeng.

On my side(FB profile), people didn't pay much attention. 5 "likes" and 6 comments only. It's probably due to the fact that my friends know that this was only a practical joke, or that I was not popular in Facebook. Either way, the same cannot be said when I look at Fauziah's profile.

My goodness, people took this more seriously on her side. I mean, just look at the figures. My coursemates, her friends and much more. Seeing this, I wanted to stop this nonsense as soon as possible (takut jadi lebih serius) but dammit, I just can't help laughing at the comments. Maybe leave it just a little bit longer?

And then, there was this one girl.The one I like to call batu api, and her name is Caroline.

Over time, my conscience and hers got the best of us.I just can't imagine if we went on for a week. I mean, what if both Fauziah and I have secret admirers (perasan) ? One thing's for sure is that both of us will surely kena potong markah. Nobody wants that, right? In the end, both of us agreed to end this nonsense after less than 24 hours.

Maaf ku tak bisa memilihmu.

Life goes on and I made a promise to myself that I will never play this "Facebook-like-nonsense" again. Ever. Not in a thousand years. I definitely learnt my lesson.

A thousand years pass by without us noticing.

Step Up 3D

Last week I watched Step Up 3D in GSC 1Borneo. With all the hype surrounding the movie, I just got to see it for myself.

RM15 well-spent? We'll see.

Let’s get this out of the way first. I’m not a big fan of dancing. I’m also not a big fan of dance movies. Particularly because all of them (the one I’ve seen anyway) feels exactly the same. Generally, the formula always goes something like this

• There’s always going to be a big dance-off competition around the corner and the dance crew (in this movie, The Pirates) is preparing for it.
• The new guy (if there is any) awes everybody with his/her dance moves. The new guy joins the crew.
• Mid-way through the movie, something goes wrong. E.g.: A person betrays the team by leaking their dance moves and/or joins the opposing team. Mind you, this happens conveniently right before the final showdown.
• Everybody give up hope and suddenly, a person in the team (usually the new guy) inspires everyone to move on.
• They defy the odds and win the competition.

The new guy.

The question remains. Is Step Up 3D any different? The answer is no. It’s the same old, same old.

Don’t take me wrong however. I LOVE this movie. Seriously, we all know we didn’t come and watch this movie to enjoy the “deep” storyline. We came to see the DANCE MOVES and my God, this movie is saturated with fantastic choreography. From the robot dance to the finals where The Pirates put lots and lots of LEDS on their shirt, the dances were out of this world. With the exception of a few of course, which looks like a bunch of people having a seizure. But that just probably me.

Did I mention that I watched this movie in 3D? After my horrible 3D experience (if you can even call it that) with The Last Airbender, I was understandably a bit reluctant to spend my RM15 for the ticket. Thank God it was worth it. Everything felt like it’s going to pop out any moment from the screen and some scenes were cleverly designed for this purpose. From the bubbles, the flying slurpee, splashing water on my glasses and so on. Now this is what I’m talking about.

Surprisingly, my favorite part of the movie is the one where Moose and Camille dance to “I Won’t Dance”. Nothing fancy and nothing acrobatic. Just two person dancing and act silly together. It felt so light-hearted, cheerful and somewhat romantic.(Yeah, I'm cheesy.)

Talking about romantic, there’s Luke and Natalie. Yes, they showed interest to one another and yes, they lived happily ever after at the end of the movie but somehow I didn’t feel like rooting for them. I don’t know, maybe it was poorly written and never got expanded enough due to the amount of dancing in this movie. Who knows, who cares.

In conclusion, would I recommend this movie? Absolutely. The dancers and the dance moves are out of this world. It’s fun to watch and well-worth the RM15 I spent. Oh, and did I mentioned the robot man? He’s cool too.

The Dog and The Monkey

I saw this story a while a back and I just couldn't resist changing it into Sabahan Malay. BUT with a few changes from the original,of course.

Enjoy. xD

Ada 1 ikur anjing sama 1 ikur munyit yang suka kasi main-main antara 1 sama lain.Adalah 1 hari ni durang sama-sama mansau-ansau dalam hutan.Siok-siok durang jalan, durang terjumpa ni 1 lampu ajaib,yang macam dalam Aladdin tu.Si anjing cakap,"Mmmbah,ni barang bagus ni tau.Cuba ko gosok gia,mangkali pandai kuar tu jin kasi tunai ko punya permintaan". Si munyit pun tanpa pikir banyak-banyak terus gosok tu lampu.Naaah,betul-betul bah kuar tu jin.

Si jin cakap, "Mmmbah,kestau apa yg kamurang mau.Masing-masing ni saya bagi 3 permintaan".Si anjing yang mimang terkenal dengan sikap gatal pun apa lagi. First wish dia, "Saya mau semuaaa anjing dalam ni hutan kena kasi tukar pigi betina". Dia punya permintaan kena kasi tunai.

Si munyit pikir lama-lama apa yang dia mau.Last-last dia cakap "Bagi saya helmet motor ja". Lepas tu helmet muncul depan dia,terus dia pakai cepat-cepat.Kehairanan si anjing sama sia munyit tapi dia teruskan dengan 2nd wish dia. "Saya mau anjing dalam hutan yg di sebelah tu pun kena tukar pi betina.Bulih ka?". "Bulih bah kalo ko", jawab si jin. Permintaan si anjing kena kasi tunai.

Lepas tu si munyit cakap "Saya mau 1 motor.Apa-apa ja,asalkan laju". Si anjing pun geleng-geleng kepala pasal terlampau pelik dia punya permintaan.Apa-apa pun, si anjing teruskan dengan dia punya wish yang terakhir. "Aaah,alang-alang sudah kan....SAYA MAO KO TUKAR SEMUUUA ANJING DALAM NI DUNIA PI BETINA!BIAR DURANG BEREBUT-REBUT SAYA SATURANG!!MWAHAHAHA!!"

Permintaan ditunaikan.

Si munyit pi naik motor baru dia lepas tu pecut berabis.Lepas lebih kurang 50 meter gitu, dia pun teriak kuat-kuat sama tu jin, "SAYA WISH TU ANJING SUPAYA DIA TUKAR JADI GAY!!!"

New Hair Color

Yesterday, I finally did the unthinkable. I got myself a new hair color for the first time, after all these years wishing for one.

One might say, "Minta puji jua ko ni. Why don't you do it a looooooooooong time ago? Bukannya susah.".You have no idea my friend. You wanna know why?

Mostly, my parents were against it. In their mind, people who color their hair are bad, bad people and they are the ones who terrorize this country with their bad-ass attitude, wrecking havoc everywhere, using their hair as a statement for their rebellious nature.

Not exactly true is it? Luckily I manage to talk my mom into it [We even went to the saloon together by the way. Don't ask me how I did it xD] and although my dad was surprised when he saw my new hair at first, he didn't have any complain. Can I say," Nasiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiib~" ? xDD

Next I was a bit intimidated about the result of the color. Will it look good on me or will I turn into a pilak wannabe? Since I don't have a fair skin nor a face with a hint of Korean/Japanese/Chinese look, my concern is justified. Luckily, it turned out well.

...at least in my mind it is. Not too bright but still noticeable.

Peduli la kalao kamurang cakap macam pilak. I still like it. ;)
