Beautiful casts of the many ABC Family TV Series. The stars are bringing the campaign to end bullying especially cyber form which has been a serious matter in todays’ internet networking. From left Tyler Blackburn (Pretty Little Liars), Skyler Samuels (The Nine Lives of Chloe King), Katie Leclerc (Switched at Birth), Shay Mitchell (Pretty Little Liars), Shailene Woodley, Daren Kagasoff (The Secret Life of the American Teenager), Emily Osment (Cyberbully), Alexandra Chando (The Lying Game), Grey Damon (The Nine Lives of Chloe King) and Vanessa Marano (Switched at Birth).

With all these series, what is the one this  in common? They all own a hallway locker.

Based on a book series by Liz Braswell. Nine lives have always been related to cat or feline. First there was cat woman, and now this. An average teenager with cat-like ability. Looks stupid, but since I have 2 cats I watch it anyways. Including nine lives, superhuman speed, strength, hearing, agility, night vision and the ability to extend her nails like cat claws. My cats also smells my feet, call for food and lick their ass. Does Chloe do the same thing too?? hmmm… Would love to know her weakness too..

I love this series, written by Sara Shepard. Running at second season now and the question still remains.. WHO IS A!!.. Can’t she/he stop messing with their lives. And how is it possible for A to know everything that these girls do daily. Sending texts, note mysteriously to expose their secrets. I willing to go all the way but it stresses me out at the ending of each episode.

My first thought when I watched this was just like any family drama, until Daphne start using sign language, I knew there and then this is my favourite and I will continue watching. The series teaches me that being deaf and knowing sign, expression movement, emotion and physical nature is to appreciate knowingly the perspective of what it’s like to be deaf.  To me this is a different kind of series and I enjoy it very much. Marlee Matlin who used to be in L Word, Dancing With the Stars also excites me cause she has been such an inspirational although being deaf, such industry is still possible. 

When there is switched at birth, separate at birth would also need a series too right? To be premiering on August 15 will see how good this is. Of course there must a lucky one that is adopted by a wealthy family while another is in a foster home. Seems like almost Parent Trap where used-to-be-sweet-sane-freckle face Lindsay Lohan stars as the both twins, switch places with one another in order to know their parents better. However this is different, wanting to discover the birth mother another has to pretend to live on the life of another.    

The poster says it all, teenage pregnant, many school gossiping, relationships and family drama. I just started the fist season while it has been running for the 4th now. I wouldn’t like this very much but I’ll continue watching this if I have nothing better to do.

A movie by ABC. Good thing there are nice people that uploaded this in YouTube and I got the chance to watch it. Taylor is a victim of cyber-bullying while visiting a social website and is pushed to a breaking point where she almost commits suicide. Internet bullying or any form of bullying has been a main issue in today’s society especially towards the social networking. I also like how Emily Osment acted in this compared to how her BFF miss Cyrus.

**Pictures are not mine**

My very first football experience in the stadium, and I was glad that my first is my home country. My expectation was never high for the winning, but I never expect to see our nation are together as one for one magnificent night. I will never forget this..

The plan it to take the train to Bukit Jalil, cause thinking for driving there and worst coming back would be insane. Our train ride was exciting already at Masjid Jamek. People wearing Yellow and Blue Jersey all smiling at each other knowing that our destination is the same. When the train depart and arrive, crowds cheered happily.

The plan is to meet our great friend Sam, Wan and Joe at the station. Outside the stadiums people are selling jersey, funny hats, banners, food!! Practically anything that could make money. I got myself a black & yellow jersey too. On the way marching to the stadium crowds are building up like mad. Young, old, man and women all walk together, no one is really being pushy but still a proper crowd. They are all mostly commenting on my cute hat.

The seats were almost full. Luckily we manage to walk around the stadium and got the upper side for a good seat. Stadium was filled with over 80,000 people waving their flags and banners. It was the most greatest thing and the proudest moment that I was being apart of such  event.

Then there’s the Singapore spectators. Seems like only few head counts.

The tiger mascot came too and made the crowd goes wild. Making wave, waving flags and banners.

And there it was the heroes for our Harimau Malaya marches out to the field. Crowds cheering so loud while I had goosebumps all over my body.

Before the National anthem was played, the crowd was loud but when NegaraKu was played everyone stood still, look at the Jalur Gemilang and sang together. It was breathtaking for me to see such unity, and I do believe we still do. It brought me to tears.. but I hold it. It was beautiful and RM30 ticket is just too little for that moment.

The kick-off!!

Was watching during the whole match, didn’t bother much bout taking pictures. The Tiger did the best they could, even with a fall they manage to get right up and score the first goal. However Lions are just being pussy taking too many falls and injury time during the beginning and till the end of the game. The ball is on the other side of the field while they are playing drama falling and hurting themselves at the other. The lady paramedic from Singapore is the heroine, running back and forth to check on the players. When some of the players are carried on the stretcher, once they are on the side of the field miraculously walked back to the fields. Bunch of pussies.. Silly tactics.. hope this will work it World Cup for ya eh??

Picture time.. the proof that we were witnessing the match. (Rita, me and Sam)

Leaving the Stadium.. Many was sad that we can’t manage to be in World Cup but our spirit is still strong. The aggregate score of 6-4 lost our chance to the qualifying round for 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Our players just need to be faster, defence better and possibly 6 foot tall. However great saves by the Khairul Fahmi with the Singaporeans and scored by Mohd Safee.

Here is my Tigger that people were roaring each time I passed by while the kids wanted to touch it. What an attention seeker.. hehehe..

EVER..

Watched Fast Five last week, and commonly addiction for me like any other obsession momentarily especially after a movie or sort of entertaining interest caught my attention causing a thing called ‘fever’.

Yup.. All the sudden I’m into cars.. Fast Cars… Vroooommm… I even started driving fast (nothing new with that), wanted to drift but my car is auto transmission so it’s a no fun there. I would definitely go back to manual transmission someday. What’s next I turn to my dream and fantasy that would not leave a scratch or dent on my car. Nerd myself away… with racing games. My PS is broken so thanks to gyroscope on iPhone my fantasy is being satisfied.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. Didn’t realised I have this apps. The grafic is amazing..

**this obsession also caught me like any other examples below that I would normally turn to:

Superheroes > My Superman and Smallville.. drooling

Amazing guitar tunes > Attempt to play on my rusty guitar then leave it to dust

Pop music > Turn to my Gaga, Ke$ha, Britney that sorts till I had enough or my ear started to bleed

People that mention Angry Birds > Sudden urges to finish the level and only must obtain all 3 stars

Glee > Sing a long like nobody’s business

Interest on a certain celebrity or person > Google-ing, FB-ing and Twitter-ing like a number 1 stalker.

We’re all humans.. We’re curious.. I’ll all good.. Just be safe out there. ; )

I’ve known the Paint by Number, Van Gogh in a box, “Now everyone can be van Gogh. It’s so easy. Just follow the simple instructions and in minutes, you’re on your way to being an artist.” from the Mona Lisa Smile movie. Where a scene by Julia Roberts introducing to her students who are brilliantly smart but just can’t wait to be married. One of my favourite movie inspiring women to be question the purpose in life better than being meant traditionally in a societal role.

So here, my first Paint by Numbers or known by the product Paint It Yourself experience. The paint used is environmental friendly, non-toxic, non-polluted. It’s a complete set just right for the picture you’re about to paint and if it happen not be enough, call the number at the back of the box and they’ll send it for free. 

Below is how the picture supposed to look like.. *fingers cross*

Rita demonstrate the first colours to paint. Just follow the numbers…

At this point I wasn’t sure that this is a cat.. I thought I did it all wrong.. I was like.. “Why is it GOLD??”

Then I got this.. “Thank God”

Lastly to make it glossy and realistic. This glue look a like thing which is also like errmm.. how should I say this, male reproductive cells. If I were to put this on the table my mum would start wondering if I’m asking for a donor. Not that I mind.. Oops..

After the painting, see how glossy it is.. So pretty.

Finally all done. I’m so proud of myself. “Everyone Can Cook” now.. “Everyone Can Paint”

This is it, I am in Love with this new series. This is the totally opposite to Parenthood. This is what it is like in the real world. Watched the first Pilot episode and can’t wait for the second already. There’s alcohol, drug, stealing, attitude, sex and of cause like any series nowadays, homosexuality. It’s just too typical already but  not complain here. I support rainbow, Neil Patrick Harris, Ellen, Gaga and ‘Born This Way”. I love Emma’s character running the house like a mum (I have a better picture of her from the Phantom of the Opera while some be picturing something else of her this time. You pervert..), and no matter how messed up the family is, they’re all under control. Love all the casts and the unexpected Joan Cusack role. I was practically screaming.. OMG!!

I would say the series is hardcore, how can this be running local television in the States. The fact that this is Showtime that brought, famously known “The L Word”, “Dexter”, “Weeds”, “Californication”, “United States of Tara”, “Queer As Folks” and many others. No surprise there, that this is just like the series to join the Showtime family.

Shameless UK has been running since 2004 and up coming to 9th season, see if the remake is any good.

It’s known as Tashiro-jima or Tashiro Island where there’s only roughly a population of 100 and only the elders are residing there. The population of feline are more than the human population. They also believe that feeding the feline could bring wealth and good fortune. I hope I got all the wealth and fortune I need from that 2 fat cat of mine.

A blog that I found that solely dedicated to cats lovers. It makes me smile and goes awww.. nuff said. Love Meow

Kitten kisses are the precious.

“A neighboring island, Ajishima. A photo that seems to be taken after tsunami, emerged on twitpic. According to the caption, it was taken around 15:43 local time on March 11.” – Love Meow.

According to the post its a high ground. There are possibilities of survivors for both elders and feline.

Put your hands up…

I have also been using Instagram Apps on my iphone and has been following a user known as Neco-Ideas. He or she, has been posting beautiful cat photos and had me wonder for quite some time. Where has this person been so coincidently happen to take all this beautiful picture. Till yesterday, most pic taken are by the shore, beach, fish nets and boats. This is the particular island. The dream kitties island. Picture below is the last post that he or she submited. It was a beautiful place till the disaster. May it be restored and Japan blossom once again like the beautiful Sakura.

*All pictures are not mine. They’re from Love Meow and Neco-Ideas from Instagram Apps on Iphone. Unfortunately unable to share his or her beautiful shots. If you have that apps do look for it. Hope that he or she is alright too.*

It was a high rating by numerous movie article and Natalie Portman did played the character well. During half of the movie I realize that this is similar to Fight Club. Other related movies that I’ve watch are like The Machinist, The Prestige and Se7en, also like the tv series Doll House.

I personally enjoyed how the dark movie ended and the performance by both Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis in the movie. Ironically they will be both be staring the almost alike movie where Natalie will be with Ashton Kutcher in No Strings Attached while Mila with Justin Timberlake in Friends With Benefits. Both with the same movie concept to be release this year. 

Of course the big win for Natalie in winning the Best Actress in Motion Picture in Golden Globe -Drama beating Helle Berry, Nichole Kidman, Jennifer Lawrence and Michelle Williams. At the acceptance speech she mentioned his newly fiance “Thank you to Benjamin who is helping me  continue this creation of creating more life. Um.. who Benjamin choreographed about the film and also you might remember him in the movie as the guy when they asked her “Would you sleep with that girl?” and like “No”. He’s the best actor, it’s not true. He totally wants to sleep with me.” And a thank for Mila Kunis ”My fellow actress Mila Sweet Lips Kunis. urm.. You’re the greatest.”

Me, Rita and Sam got our ticket about 9 months ago at only Rm 86.00 per person. Superbly cheap flight all thanks to Air Asia. I have to say that it is a privilege for Malaysians’ and all of Asia that we are able to seen and been places because of Air Asia. With the achievement that Tony Fernandez made it on Forbes just “wow” me when I read it on the plane to Bandung. I’m really grateful and proud with the immigration stamps on my passport.

At first I was not quite excited of Bandung, probably cause we got the tic way too early that expression just like.. *neh.. i’ll be away for a little while*. The fact that the journey to LCCT is dreadful as always, checked in bags, quick meal at airport, boarding pass, immigrations, board on plane, sit on plane, eat on plane (I’m always hungry on plane, the higher I go I hungrier I got), landed in Bandung. And there it is, while walking down the stairs, the breeze through my hair, soft cooling wind runs on my face skin, from that on, I realized that I”m On Holiday!! They best RM 86.00 spent ever.  Then there was camwhoring and the Husein Airport. It is  like the smallest airport that I’ve ever seen. The immigration, the pick up bags, the security scan and the arrival pick-up area are all in one place. Seriously that small.

The cooling air in Bandung, we barely see the sun.. until our last day.

The hotel room that we stayed in, Novotel at Jalan Chihampelas. Very pleasant stay, the hotel staff are very cheerful and helpful but horrible food for room service.

The view outside the hotel, are small average housing area.  We reached Bandung late about 4pm and right after checking in our room, we headed for food hunting and went straight to Paris Van Java and apparently the other 4 consecutive nights..

The malls there, are different compared to KL. It’s concept are like our Curve at Damansara, most malls has garden area, no air-conditioning, has different kind of business types of restaurant unlike the common repetition. The cart on the middle picture is an internet booth. Real cute..

Our eye catches at Ta Wan Chinese restaurant. At first we thought that it wasn’t Halal, and my two friends smile so wide when it is, despite there’s frog dish that they ignored.

(L: Scallop with Brocolli, Top R: Soft Shell Crabs, Bottom R: Braised Tofu Chicken) 

Looks good right, taste good as well. The fact that most of the food in Bandung that we had was satisfactory good.  

Yup, there’s Segway. We love the Segway a lot.. Sam fell while riding it though, good laugh…hahhaha…

Also since we’re in love with this form of tranportational, there’s one in KL all along and it’s real cheap. Will deffinately try this soon.. real soon.. hopefully. Check this out, SegKL.

Romulus is a mythical myth, just like the werewolf itself, vampires and twilight?  Anyway without a doubt looking at the logo I just went like, “Hey it’s Jacob”. Maybe someone should start a Vampire coffee-house with crazy amount of blood looking colouring food. Red Velvet, Bloody Mary, Barista that uses fangs or glitter. A freaking Volvo as the mascot, cold and pale. It’ll be a Twilight concept store or like True Blood with blood in the bottle. This could go on and on.. you’ll get the picture.

Location Solaris. Opposite Coffee Bean. Very easy to find. Best thing opens at 7am.

That’s Jacob.. I would be Team Jabob than being with that sissy Edward.

I like the glass sticker. No pork, No lard.

We even received a pager, that alert annoyingly and blink for us to get up of our seat to pick up our food at the bar. I mean this is almost like a restaurant, seriously can’t they serve us on our the table. But I was excited when it rang. Got up immediately.

Check out the American Breakfast called as Romulus Regular Breakfast at RM 14.90, no drinks included. Nothing on plate is quite cheap except for the beef bacon that’s as tough as a rubber.

At least I know where to find Pizza early in the day. Pepperoni Tortilla. So thin. So cheezy. I like this one. At RM 12.50.

The Latte small at RM 9.50. Not good.  Maybe the choice of milk is not right.
