down the loony bin

this just in:

instead of on the 6th,
my flight will be on the 5th of september
at 2.40 pm NOON

so is it officially time to panic yet?

disgust

i just spent a good 3 hours cleaning up my room
today the wood thingy for my bed arrived,
so i can FINALLY sleep on my bed.

and i changed the fitted sheet
and the pillow covers
and the quilt cover
so now it actually resembles a girl's room again

then i re-arranged all my novels
by most favourite authors to least
then i re-arranged my dvds
by most expensive,categories,favourites and wutnots
then i re-arranged my dressing table
by the order it was the last time
then i hung my audrey poster again
and my audrey calendar
and i re-decorated my sofa w/ the pillows and the throws
and i re-did my dressing table so that it looked like it did the last time

so ur probably thinking why am i wasting my time
cleaning up my room when im only gonna be staying there for another 2 weeks
if u didnt know,
my flight is on Sept the 6th
the reason behind it is,
because i miss my room.

when the guests were here my room was completely transformed
no trace of me whatsoever
everything gone,and even looked somewhat masculine

so let me have the simple pleasure of my room,
to MY liking,
for the remainder of my time here

im really getting very maudlin these days
i feel like im in this huge cage and its closing in on me
the cage being the day i'll be leaving,metaphorically speaking
and i hate it
i really REALLY hate it

i mean im excited,dun get me wrong
but i dont know theres just something depressing about going away
and i have to leave ibu
i dont want to leave ibu!
she's my bestfriend
what will i do without her?
what will she do without me?

like i said,
its all just too depressing,
which takes away all the joy in going i tell u
and i worry about ibu,
who will be there for her when shes sick,or needs someone to talk to
or anything.

maybe im just thinking too much

touched

i know im a day late
but i've just been so very busy lah

Anyhooo,
i'd like to say thank uuuuuu to these 2 girls
I feel so honoured
i love u both to bits! :)

[even tho the both of u post horrendous photos of me that make me ashamed to be seen in public,heh...but saya akur,because i love u guys! :)]

please click here and here

ps : i'll post mine later when i have the time

LE festin.

so yesterday went window shopping
[only I window shopped] w/ siew kwan n her cousins
she told me that she had this dream where i told her im going to UK
and then she cried.
hahait wasfunny thatshe had that dream,but kinda touching also lah dun ask me why,heh

yesterday also we had this big maulud do' for Abuya Said Ahmad
and heres the good part,
Auntie Clara and 3 other non-muslims actually converted to Islam!!
I am so happy for them!!
Its such a blessing dontcha think
So no wonder lah during the majlis this one lady came up to me mintak tolong pakaikan tudung
And me being me,i just tied her selendang for her nampak-lah dada jugak
on which she pulled to make it not so noticeable.
do i feel ashamed?i do.
Anyhoo,here are random pics w/ musab,hud,omar,nabila,mama,farah
and one of the majlis tho its not very clear and quite far

then today went to watch Ratatouille w/ my ladyLOVES
i love that movie!
its so cuuute in a frenchy rodent kind of way,
even the music is amaziing
definitely a thumbs up

oh and we had lunch @ chillis
w/a massive photo session

it hits you but gooooooood ;)

and the best part is,
none of it was done by moi

bday updates:
my parents gave me an early birthday present of a sort,
2 casual dresses and a shirt by zang toi,an armani handbag
AND my most favourite,an Anya Hindmarch handbag!
i swear the bag is pure beauty
to siew kwan,

pictures will come later

misc updates:
last night i counted and im left with only 22 days!
and i still havnt done ANYTHING!
and im starting to miss ibu :(
although i can still see her evryday now
it feels like its not enough since i know our time together is limited
[anak mak gila kan,heh]

things i need to do before i go:
spend time w/ d adiks
karaoke
donate old stuff
visit orphanage [ find that boy i wanted to adopt,heh]
go out w/ibu more often just the two of us
sleepovr w/ myladyloves
sleepovr w/ the awesome foursome[i took the name u used ok siew kwan :)]
buy those pesky electronic gadgets
and and i cant think of anything else
but i'll surely write more later
oh and a complete list of things i wanna eat jugak,heh

p.s so ibu dah give the greenlight to use the av room on the 1st of sept.and she asked me"Why do u wanna use it?Nak tgk movie ramai-ramai ke?Nak tgk Night Magic?Apa yang bestnya Iman je sorang yang suka"
sighhhhh
u wound me,Ibu.

improper english

so i havnt been blogging for awhile
not,from lack of time i assure u
but rather from sheer laziness,heh

this entry i wanna dedicate to a dream i had recently
about two nights ago i think
nothing special about the dream but i just wanna put it in writing
because i get this ridiculous joy from recalling and reading about my dreams
just a warning,if u wud rather NOT hear about my dream
dont bother reading :)

so anyhoo,
in the dream i was already in UK i think
and theres this really big bash to celebrate all the freshmens that year
and i was at this night market browsing thru old used books
when i found this one book,a collection of poems or short stories of a sort
and suprise suprise! one of the authors is yours truly
And i was looking around trying to catch someone's attention to tell them
hey,thats me!
im actually published :)

but no one seemed to notice me
Until this one chinese lady said "yes, i know u wrote it,Iman"
and the thing is i dont even know this lady
so she introduced herself and said that she read my application to Nottingham
her name was Bess and she was this spunky little grandma complete with a scottish burr of an accent
quite hard to understand what she was saying,actually

and then i got to walking around the market with her
when we came across a group of blacks or african american
they were in a heated discussion
but Bess managed to cut in and talk to the leader
who was of paler skin than the rest making me guess that he was of mixed parentage?
anyhoo,awesome bone structures and a to-die-for voice
u know,slightly scratchy,completely manly,pure sin.heh.
Needless to say i fell head over heels in...lust?hahahaha
no no crush is more like it

Turns out they where this drama cum stage or something club or something
i didnt really get that part
and then Bess said she wanted to put syafea's name down for the society
[see syafea tu tandanye kene pegi UK!;p]
but then the drool-worthy guy said that they're associated to Manchester Uni only
and suddenly i heard my voice piping in saying im going to manchester
and then he turned to me and did this slow smile thing and said"yeah?"
and i swear i practically died on the spot,heh

After that was kinda a blur with him getting my name wrong and wutnots
but in the end he was suppose to drive me and syafea to our halls
so we drove to syafea's first and i helped her with her stuff and bla bla pretty boring
all i remember was i left him in the car for quite a long time lah

Anyhoo,suddenly the scene changed
And i was at this party,and i discovered that the guy was actually a detective
[im hoping scotland yard or interpol,tho i dont remember any such detail from my dream,heh]
And he was actually sent to protect me from the very beginning
So i was looking for him throughout the party,asking around and such
And get this,get this
HE DIED!!!!!
of young age!
is that the most stupidest thing u hav ever heard or what??!!
dying of young age is a completely dumb never-heard-of concept if u ask me
but thats why its a dream lah kan...sighhhhh

so thats the end
and to be honest, i still feel a bit miffed
and betrayed
and heartbroken
its so completely unfair

i know its foolish of me,
but i do so love to ponder over my dreams
and i've gotta tell u this one has got my mind going around in circles
and its still a bit unsettled.
