I could lie and say that I'm bored and this is my last resort for entertainment, but you know that won't be true. I love talking about myself more than the next person, so why wouldn't I do a meme especially if I've been tagged by Heng Kai?

1) Name one person who made you smile last night.
Er, Sugs I guess. I was out with her getting a manicure and we were gossiping which makes me laugh a lot.

11) Where do you keep your change?
I'm not telling you. You might steal it.

12) What is the weather like today?
Sunny! Just the way I like it. Why do people complain about Malaysian weather? I think it's gorgeous. (and I do not suffer from sunstroke, thanks!)

13) What is the best ice cream flavor?

Nope

19) Do you know anyone named Steven?

20) Do you make up your own words?

21) Are you typically a jealous person?
No, it's more fun to stir the green-eyed monster in others

Heavens, no!

37) Why did you answer and post this?
Like I said, talking about myself = favourite activity

38) Tag 5 people who would do this survey
If you know me... you know I'd say... I'll tag everybody... I really am not fussy... It's your life, tell me about it!

** Disclaimer **

I SWEAR the list isn't in order of preference or in ANY order at all... I just put down the names as and when they came to mind (and in the order that I was checking my msn list). If your name isn't here, that does not make you any less special to me!!!



1. How did u meet #14 (Bhai)?
Dammit! Why do you have to be #14, Bhai??!!

Bhai and I have had a love-hate relationship since the beginning of time. Bhai went to the same school as my first boyfriend and big surprise - he hated him and thus hated me, and Bhai has probably never agreed with any other boyfriend after that either. Getting rid of boyfriend #1 was just the beginning of a great friendship built on insults and sarcastic remarks (as well as almost identical Capricorn traits)... and in Bhai's words "The smartest thing you ever did, Charl". The only problem he has with my boyfriends now is that he thinks they are all Ah Bengs and they are never good enough for me.


2. What would u do if u hadn't met #1 (Lionel)?
Dated other guys.



Oh wait, I meant to say that I would never have found my soulmate, best friend, pillow-talk companion, adventurous travel buddy, consumer of everything I cook whether tasty or nasty, free compliment service, opener of container lids that are too tight, destroyer of bugs and cockroaches and rats that scare me, fetcher of my water, coffee, snacks, etc. when the kitchen seems too far away, supporter of all the ridiculous endeavours I come up with, sugar daddy of all my meals and soft toys, download centre for all my tv series, and provider of unlimited hugs and kisses.

I know it sounds like I can't do anything for myself. Lionel would agree.


3. What would u do if #20 (Xiaokai) and #9 (Lu) dated?
*wide-eyed look* Match made in heaven!! Here's how it'd go. They'd both meet on the World of Warcraft server and hit it off famously. They'd talk about gaming, their pure loathing of studying and small, fair, bespectacled girls. And then they'd try and meet IRL. And I'll be tearing from laughing too much. As I always do.


4. Would #6 (Chien Liq) and #10 (Nicole) make a good couple?
OH... MY...
HAHAHAHAHHAAHAHahahahAHAHAHAHHAhahahhaAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

No. Not unless you want a repeat of the Holocaust.


5. Describe #3 (Anu)
a. Cries before exams
b. Bites her fingernails
c. Adores Ronan Keating
d. Puts on her baby voice when she wants something
e. Calls me a pandi (pig) when she doesn't get her way
f. ...
Ah heck, this list will never be exhaustive enough. Anu's one of my bestest friends who'll one day be the skinniest doctor Melbourne has ever seen.


6. Do you think #8 (Yi Shan) is attractive?
No.

I'm sorry, that was too harsh. I don't think Yi Shan is attractive but I think that Yi Shan thinks he's cute.

7. Tell me something about #7 (Wei Kiat)
He likes to hurt people. Physically. He also likes guns. I mean the ones that shoot. I mean the ones that shoot fire. I mean... oh what the heck. He's also very apt at writing secret admirer letters to himself.

8. Do you know anything about #12 (Cheng Chun)'s family?
Has 2 sisters who have really swanky London/US apartments!

9. What is #1's (Lionel) favourite thing?
ME! and maybe his Nikon.

10. What would you do if #11 (Ayish) confesses that he/she likes you?
Aww... so flattering!

11. What languages does #15 (Ravi) speak?
Idiot-speak.

Oh and a smattering of English, Malay, Chinese swear-words, probably some Vietnamese too now...

12. Who is #9 (Lu) going out with?
His duvet

13. How old is #16 (Jere)?
Last time I checked... about 12. I mean so what if his I.C. says he's 22, the national registry has been known to make mistakes from time to time.

14. When was the last time you talked to #13 (Baa)?
When I was still in London, on MSN

15. Who is #2 (Sugania)'s favourite singer?
Madonna. This is easy.

16. Would you date #4 (Charmaine)?
Hell yeah! I mean who wouldn't? Charmie's hot and smart and funny and such a babe and we'd have a hell of a time, you know it!

17. Would you date #6 (Chien Liq)?
Are you kidding?? Oh, I'm sorry... that was about as harsh as saying Yi Shan's not attractive. Actually it might be fun... not as fun as dating Charmaine because CL isn't as hot and he whines all the time.

18. Is #15 (RAvi) single?
He shouldn't be single. Ravi's like the sweetest darling there is. Why aren't all the girls lining up for him. Oh wait, they probably are. Ravi, why are you being so fussy and pick one already!

19. What is #17 (Tao)'s last name?
Cheah! How many people have tried calling him Mr. Tao?

20. Would you consider being in a relationship with #19 (Hugo)?
Lol!!! This is seriously funnier than the idea of dating Charmaine or CL. Hugo wants me to be his trophy wife, to cook for him make his mum happy. I can have boyfriends but I'd be constantly worrying about Hugo stealing them away. He IS the better looking one.

21. What schools did #17 (Tao) go to?
Schools my mother doesn't approve of for Penangnites. Lol!!! Sri Inai and KTJ.

23. What is your favourite thing about #5 (Sherene)?
That she's absolutely CRAZZZEEEEE!!! She's such a babe and she's got the personality of a firecracker! You can never never never be bored with Sherene, and she's the bestest girlfriend you can have! And of course for the fact that was both LURVE Brad Pitt in Meet Joe Black... especially when he's eating peanut butter.

24. What do you think about #13 (Baa)?
He's the greenest wooliest mammal there is. Baa's so clever and he tells the lamest jokes which is so funny!!! And of course he's a great friend who made dinners at THE Chinese High Boarding School so much more entertaining.

25. What do #4 (Charmaine) and # 18 (Chris Tock) have in common?
They both have names starting with "CH"? They don't like to study? They like to procrastinate academic work? You have to catch hold of both of them, sit them down and tie them to a chair to force them to study? And yet you can be sure their mind has wandered off to something else.

26. What special qualities does #5 (Sherene) hold in your life?
Sherene (and Charmaine too) were possibly the only girlfriends I had at that point of time in my life when I met them... and have remained my best girlfriends till now.

And I shall tag... EVERYBODY. I'm not fussy.

Random-ness!

This has got to be the most simple and narcissistically fulfulling meme in awhile (tagged by Fidel the neighbourhood quirk).

5 random facts about myself

1. My parents taught me to read at the age of one, tell the time at the age of 2 and paint still life with crayons and water colours at the age of 4. My cousin who was a year older couldn't read till she was 7. Guess who was the little family favourite?
(Don't get me wrong though, I love my cousin to bits and followed her everywhere!)

2. I think roses are pretentious. My favourite flower is a carnation which is my late grandmother's favourite.

3. When I was 16, I fell in love with restoring heritage buildings on a visit to the Cheung Fatt Tze mansion in Penang. I still believe I will one day help to restore the ruins of Suffolk House - built by Francis Light for his common law wife. Many romantic paintings of it hang in the Penang Museum, although right now it looks like something out of Jungle Book!

4. I have a motion sickness problem related to my hearing. In the evenings passing cars and loud noises scare me and I can't stand when I'm on the tube unless I absolutely have to.

5. In 20 years I hope to be able to have enough power (and money) to revamp the entire Malaysian Public Library system to one which will not only contain books of a higher standard (I say 'higher' so as not to offend the current government administration who often think of themselves as perfect demi-gods) where preferably more than half of them will be in English (the books, not the demi-gods) with credible authors and not just half torn Nancy Drew books that were dumped at the library steps when the kids left home. I also envision a Public Library that will become a centre of wholesome activities for young children and impressionable teenagers who believe 'c u 8ter u knnccbbbq' is a sentence. I don't know what bbq is. Amar came up with it.
And I haven't been drinking. Promise!

And I shall tag - EVERYBODY!!! I'm not choosy.

All because of May

You see, I could be doing other things with my busy schedule... like polishing my toothbrush or rearranging the stones in my fish tank... but nooooo... May has to tag me with this meme!
Ah, but I'm always so polite to oblige...

The Photo Meme

*This has got to be one of the 'funnest' memes I've done in awhile! I didn't have to rack my brains to write a single humourous word and knock about the dust bunnies in my skull while I'm at it. All I had to do was to type in my answers in a Google Image Search and use my almighty optical mouse to select the image I liked best! *clasps hands in kawaii-ness glee*

Oh shudder! Shall stop that for now.

Booked, tagged and bound!

Yeap, I copied the title right off your blog, Sher. Hope you don't mind.

So after a lazy hazy day, spent lounging around doing various errands and then getting a cuppa with Ayish followed by more lounging around in my room watching the M-Nite dvd again and talking about the 'old days' (how can we ever get tired of our baby?), what better way can I end my day with than filling in a book tag!

Total number of books I own: I buy almost every book I read (I don't believe in borrowing or loaning or stealing etc.), so erm... that's a pretty big collection. I intend to house a library one day.

Last Book I Bought: Ooh, I went on a book spree a short while before my exams with Lionel. We came back with no less than 8 books, me thinks. Among them were Fly: an experimental life, and The Chinese Experience

Last Book I was gifted: Well, erm, here's the joke. I don't remember being given any books in the last few years. You'd think people wouldn't think I was a book aficianado. If you did give me a book and I've forgotten, well message me and I'll edit this!

Last Book I Read: The Da Vinci code. I don't believe it and I do not subscribe to it.

Currently Reading: Does the Glamour magazine I bought at the airport count? Oh fine, I'm starting on Angels and Demons. I'm not a Dan Brown fan, in fact I think he's awful, but since its sitting prettily in my fireplace, I might as well.

Five Books that mean a lot to me:
You are kidding! You can't make me choose! Alright, off the top of my head...

1) Everything Is Illuminated - Jonathan Safron Foer
I just took one look at the cover and I knew I had to have it, read it, know it!
2) The Remains of The Day - Kazuo Ishiguro

If you had to take a pause in life and look down the fork in the road, this is a book you should have by your bedside. Don't ask me why. I just felt that way about it, reading it after Prelims in my little hostel room in Singapore.

3) Things Fall Apart - Chinua Achebe

It isn't so much the story that means a lot to me, it's the people I read it with, the long forgotten times spent analysing it, tearing it apart and then seeing it in a new light, back in Mrs Menon's dining hall on hot Saturday afternoons. And then, things fell apart. Where's the centre we had now?

4) High Fidelity - Nick Hornby
The beginning of my love affair with Nick Hornby, Helen Fielding, and all other witty, tongue in cheek, satirical authors. I dedicate this top 5 list to High Fidelity.
5) Jane Eyre & The Professor - Charlotte Bronte
She's my namesake, and I can't choose between these two books. I love them both. There's also Shirley, but it's almost like Jane Eyre. I liked the Professor a little bit better because it had a happier ending.


This Book Tag is now passed to: (alright... who reads... hmm... who reads?)

Anyone who's chanced on this book tag and hasn't done it. I know the ones who read (kat, cl, fidzy, hx, jac, jills, kimmy, maggie), so there! You've been book tagged!

Your High School(s): SMK (P) Sri Aman

1. nickname in high school? : Charl, Charly, Shallot, and every other possible permutation of my name. Girls in my high school were not very creative.

2. best subject? : Add Math or English Lit (Miles apart!)

5. worst subject? : Moral. Don't give me that knowing look!

6. a teacher you owe life lessons to? : Mrs Menon. You either hate her or love her. As for her Literature girls... we just worshipped the ground she walked on!

7. a teacher you wanna kick in the ass? : I actually adore most of my teachers. I'm a suck up!

8. Form 1: 1 Erat! Formed the "We hate Roslina Bagawi Club" with Maggie. (Oh! now I recall a teacher that I DID want to kick in the ass). Actually went through the rituals of donning the maroon prefects vest and tight skirt. Tormentous end of year watching both my best friends become bitter enemies.

9. Form 2 : 2 Damai! Class with 14 prefects, and forever at loggerheads with 2 Cekap. Form 2 was a rather strange year, embedded in a part of my brain I can never get rid off. Both my closest friends still steeped in pure venomous loathing of each other. Watched them attend counselling sessions which was as useful as crap. Trying to prevent another close friend from suicide attempts. Finding out that one of your close friends lives in a complete fantasy world (national swimmer? boyfriend died in a car accident? goes horse riding for recreation? oh, come on!). Getting caught by the Prefect teacher advisor for skipping classes and playing poker (and I STILL had my prefect badge then!). Form 2 was just emotionally exhausting. Scarred for life.

10. Form 3 year : 3 Fasih! Breathe of fresh air after form 2. Completely new and incredible group of friends who played the silliest games (even when we're 50 I think we'll still be playing the song game and our own version of monopoly! Jalan Ali Abdul Rahman... what the heck?), formed the Chaka-chaka club, made up weird songs about diarrhoea and fried kuay teow, co-founded the Single Women's Club with Maggie and Anu (which we banned Jilly and Ying eternally from), stepped into the Interact world and found God through CB and confirmation classes.

11. Form 4 year : 4 Sains Cekap! Notorious for containing the most POWER social groups in one small and swelteringly hot container classroom! Formed some very firm friendships. And those were the days when BBians suddenly become very much entangled in our lives - from which we probably learnt the best of life's lessons. A Sri Amanian should NEVER date a BBian! Volcano waiting to kill an entire village, that is! Took on the post of Interact VP. Many many ups and downs and tears and laughter and sweat and relief - but we achieved the incredible! So many other ridiculous memories we still laugh over at mamak sessions. Winning the zone Choral Speaking competition which I conducted leading to observations of my butt by afore-mentioned despicable BBians (well not that despicable, I still love some of you!). The much hyped hacking of our Interact website which was littered with pornography and a personal vendetta directed towards me. Forming the dynamic duo... turning out possibly the most ludicrous bitches Sri Aman ever saw. BRATs! And all my sisters in Christ in CB who kept me uplifted every single day. Wow... that was one hell of a year!

12. Form 5year : 5 Sains Bakti. Sat alone because I am really antisocial. Worked out for me because I got 2 desks to myself which had a rotation of visitors every other lesson! Busy, busy, busy year. Interact, Rangers gathering (I was the squeaky MC... I will admit that now!), CB problems and of course taking on the crazy attempt of 11 papers for SPM!

13. your best friends? : Stopped believing in best friends after form 1.

14. cafeteria food sucked? : I was too busy to spend time in the canteen.

15. most hilarious school rule? : I wouldn't know. I adore rules!

16. wore uniforms? : Yeah! My ever comfortable blue pinafore and baju kurung. And the maroon straight jacket for 2 years... I actually thought the prefects uniform looked good! Or else, I just looked good in it!

17. how was the prom? : Hah! snort! Sri Aman having a prom while Maharani was still pengetua (principal)? Fat chance. (As for RJ's prom, I still have my misgivings about it... but I got flowers, so I should shut up)

18. who was prom king and queen? : Some unimportant people. Unimportant because the ones I voted for didn't win!

19. any achievements? : You're kidding! Check out my CV...

20. were you popular? : In some notoriously bitchily strange ways...

21. best song that reminds you of high school? : Maju Penuntut Sri Aman, and R.Kelly's I believe I can fly... (not his version but Choo's version: I believe I can fry... char kway teow and yao char gwai...)

22. unforgettable high school crush?? ROFL!!! Everyone knows my most tragic high school romances, affairs, heart-crushing moments and what nots... they make for such entertaining stories now. Like I used to tell Maggie after every stupid incident "I was young then!" (even if 'then' referred to '2 months ago')

23. most embarrassing moment? : I embarrass myself ALL the time, it's become a norm.

24. memory you'd like to forget about high school? : Form 2... ALL of it!

25. best memory? : I don't know... personally, I enjoyed college more!

26. any regrets? : I shouldn't have gained a reputation for being heartless and mean

27. would you like your "future child" to attend your high school? : Yeah! I say a school like Sri Aman would do a kid some good!

28. were the bathrooms clean? : Yeah... once every second rising of a blue moon

Multiple load registers, memory organisation, sequential devices and my 9 lines for the Maskerade play.
