I might be wacky,but I'm alright.

[random] Happy Birthday to Phoenix (of Linkin Park),Seth Green and Shinji (of Sid)!
[listening to] stand by me by the brilliant green


Initially,I was inspired with Americanising Desi's post,on doing a compilation on the last decade of my life,for my birthday post today.But then,I felt lazy to blurt it out eventually,mainly because..."bleh,as if anyone would be interested on knowing my elaborated chronicles!".There you go.

If you're happened to read this post,Desi,I'm truly sorry for not be able to implement as to what I have said in the comment in your post that day..I just got disheartened to do so,heheh.

And,sharing birthdays with me today is none other than my twin,Liyana! Happy birthday,dear. *throws confetti* Well,my dear readers,we're actually an unidentical twin,but both of us went to the same school together,and furthering our studies at the same university.








And many,many thank you to all of you that had wished me on this special day!







Makes me wonder

I'm a confused person. by It's already taken

Yeah,I have some questions that's been some kind of a botheration to me.Erm,care to answer some for me?

1. I was wondering on the significance of some of the netizens out there that has the letter 'x' as a part of their usernames,initially to separate two or more words.Okay,this does not apply if your birth name comes together with some 'x'...but those I referred to earlier,why can't they use a hyphen instead? Or a period?

2. I was wondering on the duets lovers significant others (geez,my vocabulary gone haywire at the moment) that agrees upon wearing the same-colored apparel on a particular day.Is it some sort of a non-verbal signal to the world that (insert some sort of declaration here)? Why can't they wear colors that complement each other? Like black with blue,or pink/purple,or green/purple..OR this famous color combination: red/black.

Okaaay,if this proven to be a literal signal that screams our proclamation...maybe I could suggest to him,like,"Let's wear something orangey tomorrow!" Wait,I do have an orange shirt..but what about him? He has the knack for wearing dark clothes most of the time.Haha,I could imagine that he'll be looking high and low for any orangey shirt,even if by any means that my senses telling me he borrowed from someone else.

3. I was wondering on those encountered with accidents while wearing high-heels.Like,do you have a paranoia on you will encounter with a much more disastrous mishap if you don't decrease the height of your heels?

4. This one does not apply to the camera shy (me,for example) people.In some of the social network profile pages that I came across,I noticed that there are some using a default picture,comprising of a group of people.I'm not talking about a default picture of you and your family,because that's fine with me.I'm talking about you putting a default picture comprising a bunch of your friends,making me puzzled with boredom of guessing which one is you.Why would you camouflage yourself amidst this confusion? You think it's cool uh? Yuck.

Erm,this is what I can think of at the moment.

What if...

Which way to go? by whisper-star

Sometimes,I have this two roads in front of me...I was thinking,what if I took the other route? What will happen to me then (and now)?

I wonder if my life would ever turned around into this point,thinking of this matter(or,slighty to have the thoughts of doing this post).Peter Parker is going to have a reboot on his life...well,can I have it too?

What if..I were a boy...and no,it's not I'm going to do a review on the song.What if I was a boy (er,a guy)? Would I have the thoughts of doing my major,just like what I'm doing now? Okay,or in the other hand,if I want to have a career,would I pursuing as a goalkeeper footballer for the national team,or became a professional dancer,or establishing myself as an artist?

Man,come to think of it...we're still living in a male-dominated world.

Quarter-Life Crisis (QLC)! *facepalm* 

I wasn't aware on this one,but let me do a reality check with the signs/symptoms first.(as referred to Gala's article)

quarter life crisis by briancarlock

Feeling like you’re not doing well enough
Yeah...the demon inside me would always nagging me on this.

Frustration & disillusionment with the working world
I'm still studying.

Feeling insecure about what you’re doing, where you’re going & what your plans are
OH HELL YES.

Anxiety over close relationships
Hmm,I'm not sure what this one is about.Skip this.

Feeling extremely bored with your social life (otherwise known as, “Oh my god, I will throw myself out the window if I have to go to another party at her house”)
In the context of my online life on social networking sites,that is.Well,there's a point where I felt so damn bored with my Facebook and Twitter,I feel like un-friending/following some of in my friends' list because they flaunting waaaaay to much on their lives! (Okay,I didn't do that,eventually.) Alright,alright...feel free to call me a devil for having these thoughts.You know what,I understand that some of you have these kind of feelings too.I'm all well-aware,if I'm in your shoes,I know that some of you might say this in your heart,"Geez,this Angela is kinda boring sometimes!" Heheh,yeah,I know I'm boring once a while.

Nostalgia for teenage years, high school or university (this often manifests itself as an obsession with looking at old photographs or reading journals & reminiscing)
If I was given the chance to travel back into the past,I wouldn't wanted to be in high-school again.

Feeling a desperate need to “settle down” — like buy a house, get married or have a baby
WTF?!? What kind of symptom is this?

...Or conversely, wanting to “escape” the real world — like backpacking around the world or finding a nice cave to live in
HELL YES! I feel like doing it at this.very.moment. Gosh,having a superhero power like Hiro Nakamura would come in handy for this one.And to own a lavish apartment would be cool too.

Financial stress or confusion
I'm kinda having it now.Sigh.

Intense loneliness
Okay,put it this way.I admit that I'm mostly all by myself while doing with my offline stuffs,but I can assure you that I'm not a loner.Besides,I have my laptop to keep me company,my winamp playlist to play my favorites tunes,and my anime collection when I feel like watching em.

Feeling that everyone is doing better than you
The same feelings as the #1.

Terror at the concept of getting “old”
In my opinion,age is nothing but a number.That is why it is relative.It's how we perceived our thoughts and wisdom.

Wondering “Is that all there is?”
Yeah,I have these curiosities on some certain things.

A vague feeling of apathy, mixed with horror, panic & depression
Yup,I can't deny that it happens to me sometimes.

Let's see..I got 8 out of 14 boxes checked.Hmmm,maybe I do have QLC after all.






So,you must be asking,what will I have for myself for my birthday? Good question.I have resolved to indulged myself tonight,while finishing my remaining pre-Chinese New Year assignment/doing revisions for Formal Language quiz;by listening to Adam Lambert's debut album and digging through the previous albums of Marilyn Manson.






Yeah,I know.As I've told you earlier,I might be wacky,but I'm (all) alright.

ps:Happy Birthday in advance (that's tomorrow,on Feb 9) to my mom and Senri!

Joyeux Anniversaire!

[random] pretending to be not so busy these weekend..lalalalalalalalala..
[listening to] te amo by rihanna






Yup,I'm trying my hand at French,because my sis' learning that as her third language,hehe. (Erm,I hope I'm using the right phrases.) Just so you know,the lady in the birthday banner is none other than Tomoko Kawase,aka Tommy February6.

Because she had requested for a mangavatar,here is the virtual representation of her:





Also,sharing birthdays with her on this day is an old friend of mine,nickfie! Hope you guys have a smashing one!




Oh and also..Happy belated Birthday to Cristiano Ronaldo! Eeeekkk..come to think of it,despite our age differences (just a year apart,that is),he's equivalent to the rank as my senpai,or in Bahasa Malaysia,I might call him as "abang".

Something like,"Selamat Hari Jadi,abang Cris!"

...omg,I feel like throwing up already,(geli dowh!). I think I'll stick to call him as Cris only.

Thursday Thirteen #7 : 13 Love-hate relationships with the Internet world.

[random] I got headaches all of a sudden..why uh?
[listening to] bullet by brian (if you're into taeyang's music,most probably you'll love him as well)

love or hate notebook cover by 黃裴鬼

Though I can assure you that I'm not highly addicted to it (as I have my offline life to handle as well) there are some researches being done suggesting that using Internet excessively could link to depression...surprise,surprise.And so,I was thinking,which one is much more miserable..being a couch potato or a mouse potato? Erm,what about joystick potato?

As for today's TT,I would like to share with some of my personal thoughts,based on my experience,dealing with this fantabulous invention.We should give our big thanks to Sir Tim Berners-Lee..if it wasn't for him,I might not be going this far in the blogosphere,or you might not be reading this wacky thoughts of mine or other blogs in your favorite feed reader,no?

Disclaimer: This blog post was not sponsored or endorsed by any multi-millionaire individual/companies.This is merely a humble opinion done by yours truly.AND,the browser I'm using is the mighty Mozilla Firefox. 

1. I'm currently hooked on to my Twitter.Why,you ask? Well,the place where I'm studying right now has all of the popular social networking sites in their filter list.So yeah.I make use of the available add-ons/applications,and some of my favorites are Echofon and TwitterFeed.Besides that,I can keep track updates from my fellow friends and celebrities.

2. When I was a noob with the Internet,I used to have this mindset of "having a huge number of friends in my friends' list is cool",particularly in social networking sites.I think I used to 'unconsciously' racing with my other friends,like who-has-more-friends-thingymajig? Goodness gracious,that is soooo MySpace/Friendster! (Owh,for those who are new to Angela's bloggie,I have closed my MySpace last year and I'll close my Friendster account soon.Heh.) Nuh uh,that isn't cool anymore.Alright,alright,having a large friends' base does exist,but in my opinion,that situation holds true if you're a celebrity/really famous(?).

I have resolve to: I will friending/adding/following you back,if I really know you.Of course,I will never averse to meet new friends as well,but then is it hard for some people to give an intro message,like,"Heya there Angela,I stumbled your (any particular site) and I thought I wanted to add you as a friend.Have a nice day! =) "






3. One of the reason why I love Facebook so much..it's because of the 'Hide' button function.That groovy button hides clutters that I abhor.






4. That was a snapshot taken from one of my blog post in my LiveJournal.As far as the direct linking activity goes,it is better for you and I to adhered to this rule of thumb: Upload the graphics at your own server.Since Photobucket applied the 90-day rule,now you have a reason to do so.






5. I missed Cyworld US.They've already closing down their service as I typed this post.What's so special about Cyworld is that we can create our own miniroom,and as you can see in the above picture,that's my virtual world.

6. RSS is my good friend.I'm using Google Reader,and I had subscribed about *thinks* 200+,comprising of blogs,news websites,and celebrities' twitter. So,what is your favorite blog reader?

7. Stuck in a mental block? Awww,don't worry.In fact,I'm gladly to share two of my favorite solutions to overcome it.Yup,you can either choose one or both.Here it is:

Option A: What You Don’t Publish, Defines Your Site
Option B: The Daily Meme






8. Speaking of side project(s),I used to designed Blogger blogskins.I think I have lost the mojo to come up with new ones now (since most of my blogskins were made for the ol' Blogger = mostly in HTML).I've studied XML last semester,hmmm,and I haven't got my "Eureka!" moment yet.As for now,I've ventured into LiveJournal-related designs,and the picture above is my latest profile layout. (Yeah,seems like I'm obsessed with HTML,how dorky I am.)

9. Done by FaceYourManga (thank you guys!),that's the virtual representation of me in this virtual world,manga style.So,as you can see from the picture,I'm in a ponytail-do,wearing my emo glasses and a black shirt,doing a peace sign,while blocking a goal post. So,what does that mean,Angela? I don't get it. You know what,neither do I.

10. Since Firefox is the browser my choice,the add-ons eases my browsing experience.Maybe I'll come up with a TT on my favorite add-ons,what do you think?

11. Almost similar to #2,I was once a victim of spreading chain-mails.Well,"getting your true love by midnight" or "you will die if you don't forward to your yada yada yada.." IS full of crap.

12. I don't feel like slapping my blog with AdSense at the moment.Nor doing a sponsored blog post.Well,the reason of my existence in the Internet world is because of my passion.Unless,when there comes to a point where I want to have a career change,as in to become an Internet entrepreneur.

13. I had a feeling that there's a squad of Internet Police wandering around the blogosphere,checking on the punctuations/grammar usage/prepositions/the validity of the blog coding/etc.Owh,if you're one of them,and spotted typos/errors in my blog,feel free and let me know about it. (And I shall thank you in advance!)
