The Dysfunctional Pilgrim

I just realized that it’s going to be December really soon. Time really does fly. One moment we were ushering in the beginning of year 2008, and now it’s almost the end. I’ ve been real busy helping out with the annual spring-cleaning of the house; though why we call it spring-cleaning is a mystery to me. There’s no spring here!! Anyway, that’s why I haven’t been bloging much. Actually, that’s a bit of an overstatement. I haven’t been blogging at all! I don’t know why, but I just don’t fell like blogging. I once said that this blog is for myself. Well, I guess I’m wrong . I hate typing. I loathe doing tedious work. I can’t think of anything when I type. Nothing comes to me. I like writing on paper, not in front of a computer screen. Arnan gets inspired when his fingers are on the keyboard. For me, it’s a pen or pencil between my fingers and paper under my hand. So this blog isn ’t for my personal satisfaction. I guess the reason why I’m not blogging is because no one seems to...

Here's the Step Up dance videos that I promised to put up a LOOOOONG time ago. Just figured out how to add videos in my blog this week you see....... So, hope you'll enjoy the grooves and move it move it too!! Want more of them? Let me know, ok?

Can you believe this? Miley Cyrus, aka Hannah Montana has just charmed her way into my big bro, Arnan's heart. MILEY CYRUS!!!!! Well, maybe that was an exaggeration. He's not having a crush on her or anything; he just likes her. Her songs, that is. Personally, I thought he wouldn't even give a tuppence about her. Funny how people change. He listens to her song Breakout about five times in one day!! Personally, I like her very much. She's one of my favourite Disney characters. She's better than High School Musical. I like her, because she's as crazy as me, and a lot of people know how to pronounce my name correctly now, thanks to her. Sure, she's done something scandalous, but let's not forget that she's young and very immature. And didn't Venessa Hudgens from HSM did something scandalous too? I'm not justifying their actions, but I guess we shouldn't just look at her mistakes. All the same, she has accomplished much if Arnan likes her. I...

Finally, The longest and most expensive campaign in the history of America is over. And it has all paid off for one man- BARACK OBAMA . Congratulations from me goes to Barack Obama, The 44th President of the U.S. of A, and also for creating history by being the very first African-American President America has ever had. Personally, I've been very much riveted and attracted to this man, much more than McCain. Did you watch his speeches?? They're amazing! The perfect use of words, the way he addresses the crowd, the country, the world....wow. Here's a small snippet off his victory speech: If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer. It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours a...

Right now, I feel like everything is over and I'm suddenly on a very long holiday, which I am...exams over, see? So now I got no more adrenaline. That's the problem when your education system is exam-orientated...the beginning of the year is rush, rush, rush, study, study, study, camps, camps, camps, competitions, debate, piano, EXAM, EXAM,EXAM,until you are fit to burst. Then suddenly, eh? Over already-ah? Yeah, I can read all the books I wanted to read, I can write stories, I can continue my novel, but I was focused so long on school that suddenly I feel a bit flaccid. Idleness, that seducing ol' codger is back. He's pulling at me, telling me to rest, to sleep, to do nothing, to moan when there is housework. Oooh, he is one heck of a good persuader. I've got to fight him off. Excuse me....* WACHAI * * HIYAH !* * POW !* * SMACK * * DISH DISH * * WAKAI * * swinging lightsaber * TAKE THAT ! *ahem* hehe, You're backing away from your computer screen, aren't y...
