...uh...

So... I have a deviantART account now. I never saw this day coming... 'cause I've always been saying that I am super-lazy to make one. So, out of demands and persuasions, I decided to make one and post my junk there. Hehe.

Man, these buttons need some getting used to...

Anyhoo, you can come and view my junk atEnjoy!! ~Ryo-kun.

So, I'm guessing that this is supposed to be the biggest post of my life because this is the point of my life that I get to know where I'm headed. Yes, I got my SPM results.

To those who don't know. SPM results here, determines what road are you going to take. It's not like, SATs though it's like, if your results qualify in this certain field, you're qualified to persue it.

SO~! XD

I got...

Well, I was actually expecting 8As, because I knew I'd suck in my Chemistry, History and stuff... Suprisingly though, I got an A for my Moral (in which I failed, like almost all the time in school), whilst the usual A students get Bs. Shocked? Yeah, I admit I was.

::: So my 7 As were...

- English (it was marked two times, one by the local edication department, and one by Cambridge, both in which I got an A)
- B.M. ( Lord, I thank my tuition teacher for this! This comes from a person who never got an A in BM in class!)
- Moral (I thought I never see the day coming)
- Art (I'm glad I got this, eitherwise, Idk what will happen...)
- Physics (Yeah, hte exam rocked too!)
- Mathematics (I got an A2, suprisingly...but I'm happy as long as it's an A)
- English for Science and Tachnology (I tell you... THIS! I am ever so relieved...this paper had like, questions on Biology-related stuff, in which I never learned. So, I mustered every scientific term I had during the exam... Oh, thank GOD!)

::: My 3 Bs were...

- History (Typical. But still! a B! From a person who constantly fails in this department too!)
- Additional Maths (I also thank God for this. a B in A Maths i already good enough in my book)
- Information Gommunication and Technology (I also am thankful for this...because I had to teach mesylf the whle subject... and it was a new subject...so there weren't any past year papers)

::: And... my C was...

- CHEMISTRY! (Ugh! Screw that damn subject! I'm so sorry, teacher, but I simply have no passion for this subject. Not that I hate it though...)

All in all, I'm really thankful. I wasn't confident in most parts... but I pulled through. My aunt was right. I really needn't worry. So, I got my certificates too. All in which I got nice, clean, perfect scores. I even got a perfect score for Biology! (yes, the subject I DIDN'T take up)
So, what's next? Graphic animation, here I come! (hopefully)...

Well, I'm back. I was away from home for the longest time of my life, which is for 3 weeks. I was in K.L with my mum, juniors and other teachers for a school field trip, in which i went undercover. We went to visit smart schools and technology based unis. So, basically, I'm there to uni-hunt. I found out that Malaysia-made animation really ain't bad. LOL

After my mum, juniors and teachers went back home, I stayed on with my uncle Albert, (my TuaKu) aunt and my two bratty cousins. That was where it all started. They brought me for satay on the first day and then ba ku teh on the 2nd day. And don't even get me started on the big pot of abundance my Uncle made.

Then my aunt Jassy took me round for hte weekend. We watched the Pink Panther 2. LOL Steve Martin! It wasn't bad with her. She lived alone in her condo so she didn't make me eat much. XD

Then I stayed with my mum's cousin, aunty Joo Sim for the week after. That where i discovered that romance books weren't so bad. Lol.

My aunt Jassy took me back for the weekend again, and we went to watch Marley and Me at midnight. XDD Loved the movie. A little altered from the book I must say, but I was impressed. I cried in the end. First time I cried at the movie. My aunt also bought me a charm bracelet. <3

Then, I stayed at my uncle Albert's house for the rest of the week. My cousins were kind of a pain. Knocking on my bedroom door when I was sleeping, and asking me to play the same board game every night. But all in all, they weren't as naughty as they used to be.

On Wednesday, I went to the One Academy to check the place out. Then, spent 1/2 my day with zymz at Sunway Pyramid before I went to Unitar to join one of my close friends, Fiona and her friends for the Jason Mraz concert. I must say, it was awesome. I got to see him backstage, but too bad my camera sucked and I hadn't a marker with me.

So, I flew back yesterday. Was REALLY tired cause I took the morning flight. Next week are the results. Dun Dun DUNnnn... Seriously. I'm NOT ready for a college life. >__<;

Hahaha! I'm living a wierd life right now. No school, no job, just sitting at home glued to the tube. Anyway, out of my free time, I got to do more sketches at my art blog.

I've also ventured to search for the Japanese versions of the Disney movies and the movie Anastasia. So far, I've got Aladdin and Anastasia. XD My favourite songs were "Prince Ali" from Aladdin, 'cause I really admire the guy who seiyuu'd Genie here, y'know, with the voice changing to match the wierd characters he transforms into. In Anastasia, I love "Learn to Do it" and "Once Upon a December". I love Anya/Anastasia's voice! XD And Dmitri sounds cute too. Ah~ how I missed that movie...Oh and Rasputin's "Dasubidanya" (Dasvidanya). LOL @ the Japanese version. XDD

Y'know...the Japanese should make their own theatre/broadway-like shows.

I've also came across Jackie Chan's song for the Movie Mulan. He sings "Make a Man out of You". Hahaha. It's wierd a little but I really love it. I've also found the French version of "There's a Rumour in St. Petersburg".

I'm going to Kuala Lumpur next week. Hopeully I'll be able to find some useful artbooks/photobooks there. Not to mention of course Cds and music books. XD

In the future, I plan to make some environment-friendly themed comics/illusts. So, I'll be posting all around later. XD See ya, peeps.

So, I'm resigning somewhere this week. I must admit after all the ups and downs at work. I think I'm gonna miss working there. I missed being bullied, somewhat by those older than me. LOL!! But All is good. I'm getting my pay this weekend and I can start my driving and other activities later on.

I was searching through the Golf Club's library and apparently found some old magazines. Since drawing the cast of FRIENDS will be my next project alongside drawing David Cook, I decided to search for some good quality pics of them and the best inexpensive source was the library! XD I could only find Jennifer Aniston (during her time married to Brad Pitt) and Courtney Cox (having just married David Arquette). So, I'll look harder this week 'cause there are many more to go through.

So, this Valentines Day, I was planning to see MArley and Me. With who? I dunno. I don't have and don't want to have a boyfriend at the moment, so right now, I'm trying to find someone who will willingly go to the movies and enjoy the film with me... ('cause I LOVE the book!) Plus Jen is in that movie too!

This 18th of Feb, I'll be going to KL and will be asking my aunt about the Canadian visa-thing. *sigh* She's gonna go to Vancouver... and I was hoping to go along too...

I feel terrible. For missing RELOAD and GAIDEN all this time. I practically forgot all about that. *pulls hair*

Anyway, I start work again today. I'm gonna work for at least one more week. And then, I'll start my road test. XD NOthing much to say really. Have 5 minutes more...before work starts.

New Blog. Old Blog.

Hey peeps. XD Just to let you know, I've updated my art blog, ryomurasaki . Also, I have a new personal blog at blogspot, in which I describe to my friends about my daily life. So I've been thinking about this blog...and the two others. Whether to let this go or not. But then again, I think, I have been attached to this blog for years. So, I don't think I'll be letting go of this blog so easily. I'll still be using it, but maybe not posting so much.

New Fandom. Old show.

I am currently addicted to F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Y'know, the tv show? I've been watching the reruns on tv, and I've been so addicted to it. I have been growing up with this show, but previously, I couldn't understand the adult jokes because I was still a kid. But now, oh, wow, it's the best sitcom EVAR!! I was and still am a fan of Ross and Rachel, but lately after re-watching the whole thing again, I've grown a soft spot for Rachel and Joey. Two of my favourite characters! XD Yaay! I'll be trying to sketch all six of them and I'll post them up on my art blog when I'm done. So exited!

New style. Same Celebration.

This Chinese New Year, my family will be making a little twist. Instead of ordering catered food, we'll be cooking. I'll be making dessert ('cause I'm not so good with frying and cooking and stuff) and also will be helping my mum a little with the ingredients. We'll be having, like a dinner party for our closest friends. So it'll be fun.

New songs. Same instrument.

Piano sheets! I finally have time to download some piano sheets! I've downloaded "I'll be there for you" by the Rambrants, a.k.a Friends' theme song, some Abba songs and I've got some sheets from my friend and teacher too. I've got some Leona Lewis, some K-pop, and some Mozart. XD

So I'll see ya guys later! Night!

Well, two things happened at work today.

1. I had to take someone at the counter. It was my first time... and I got yelled at because I didn't know what to do. Damn it I was nervous. And I never used the outdoor register. So, yeah, I spent an hour there. Getting yelled at twice. But I got over it.

2. Okay. I didn't react to this, but as I thought of this, I can honestly say people are sometimes RIDICULOUS! So, yeah, I can't speak Chinese. This woman was like asking a question in Chinese. The hell like I know what was she talking about. I thought she was talking to her daughter. She was actually asking how much more of the money should she add to reach 250? I kept quite, 'cause I didn't know that she was talking to me and I didn't know Chinese. So, she went of saying that I was stupid... because I wouldn't answer her.
I was like. Huh? (I just woke up from sleep/ came back from break) I didn't react to that.. suprisingly. The guard, and my friend were like. WTFH? And they were like..."OMG WHAT AN INCONSIDERATE B*TCH!" K not really, but that was close to what they were talking 'bout. LOL.

So yeah, hate Chinese people because they are harsh on you, they are unmerciful, they are biased, they are well, Chinese. I honestly thought I was gonna cry.

But I thought. This was only here. In the supermarket, near my home. Where my parents could come anytime. There are plenty of bastards and bitches in the world out there, and if I couldn't handle the pressure, I'm not strong to handle the world. So I spent the rest of the day smiling. No seriously, that's what I did. Radiantly and  happily. And I felt better doing that.

I SO need a diary/notebook thing to straighten out my schedule.

Work sched

Mon- Full
Tues- Morning
Wed- Full
Thurs- idk
Fri- idk
Sat- Full

Next week, we'll be working till midnight. Great. So, WHEN am I going to start baking? *sigh* At least my pay's big.

Other acivities

Wed- American Idol 8 on tv
Thurs- idk, guess I'll work
Friday- piano class
Saturday- off day, 2nd driving course, road test, movie day!, and shopping for ingredients
Sunday- work, and hopefully time to go to church.

I feel kinda good today. Work is nice so far. Minus the crappy first day, things seem to be going smooth. My friends and supervisors are so nice! And the guards take time ocassionally to mess around with us. YEa, who cares of the stinkin' security cam anyway. lol
I bought a pair of red earrings today. I have grown a fettish for earrings, I think. Especially those dangly ones. They're nice to play with. Anyway, I bought the red earrings for Chinese New Year. Next I think I'll look for a pair of green ones. XD

Suddenly, I learn to appreciate colours like, brown and green...and...wow...um...pink? Still, not too girly. But yeah, I think I'm comfortable with pink now. Lol.

I learned new words today at work.

Wo yao che fang (sp?)- I wanna eat rice.

lol
Ryo deshita.

Oh my asdfghjk gosh. You wont BELIEVE what happened at work today.

Well, to make the long story short, I simply had a workout today. I saw this grandma pulling up a trolley to my friend, Cathrine's counter. So, I decided to help 'cause it's the polite thing to do. So, I peeped into the trolley. 4 BAGS OF RICE!! 

Me and Cat: Waaa~~

So, ya, Cat did a cat scan over the bars and stuff, while I helped packed the stuff. Then the old lady, began pushing another trolley towards us. Oh, this wasn't unnusual, I thought. It's common for Chinese families to be buying many groceries 'cause of Chinese new year.
So, Cat scanned somemore.

and then...

came the THIRD trolley. And ajdfghjk was it FULL!!! Me and Cat were like... o_________________o Oh mai...asdfggj gosh.

Me: So, how much do you think...
Cat: 600...?

So, I had to carry stuff up to the counter, pack them, and put them in the trolley again. Those stuff were heavy you know. In the end, it all added up to one really, reaaally long reciept and 700+ bucks.

Me: Woa
Cat: Yea, broke my record already...

So, yea, besides all that, I did some running up the stairs, more packing and carrying heavy bags. One auntie also wanted me to carry her stuff to her car. I was happy to do it, but man, was it heavy.

So yea, it seems like, my job is like my gym too. LOL
Geez, I really gotta get back to drawing soon... >_< I haven't been indulging myself into it for a very long time.

...well it was. Finally, I passed my law test. I was happy, of course. I got myself some nice well-earned sleep after that. Ironically, right...i didn't study much... 'cause I had like, 2 hours to prepare since I was busy from my job.

So, next, I'm gonna sit for another course. And then, I'll take me lessons on the road.

Full shift again today. Gosh, will I be exhausted...

After 1/2 day of sleeping, I still feel very tired. I haven't been able to study for my 3rd driving test. Shit. Haven't been able to bake for CNY, haven'y been able to play the piano or the guitar, haven't been able to watch the rerun of FRIENDS on tv, haven't been able to watch movies, haven't been able to hang out with my friends, haven't been able to shop, haven't been able to play with Hazel, my dog, haven't been able to just...sleep contently.

Going to work has been like going to school; 'cept, I work till 9:30 pm or 10pm (and next week, I'll be working till midnight). Imagine. Working from 9am to midnight. With two half-hour breaks. Though, I'll be a getting A LOT from this, OMG, I am so gonna die! K, not really. I also meet new people for the first time in my life; cept these people are of ALL ages. Some will be biased bitches, some will be friendly buddies (I seem to get plenty of those in just this week), and some will be friendly acquaintances.

The guard, Uncle Durian thought I was a Korean. Since I don't know how to speak Chinese. LOL

asdfghjk Tomorrow is my stupid driving test (take three). Lets see how I do this time...without a week of studying.

I want to go watch MARLEY AND ME!! sdfghjkl *flails for Owen and Jen and those cute dogs who play Marley)

Wow. Work was overwhelming. Now I know how it's like. Work was fine despite all the standing I had to do. Imagine standing for like, 10 hours. OMG.

...I have realized that...speaking Chinese seems to be a necessity to survive the cold world out there. Lemme tell you a thing or two about a typical Chinese. One, they scold you if you get a tiny bit of thing wrong. Two, they stick to their own kind. Three, they're very "kiasu" (don't give up so easily/ competitive).

Since I don't speak Chinese, some of my Chinese friends don't seem to talk to me often. Though they can speak English. Also, the customers are mostly Chinese (since Chinese New Year is Coming), so they speak Chinese to me. I have to say that I don't understand. Oh yes, I also must say that usually Chinese (esp the elder ones) are rather impatient. So, if you don't give them what they want, they'll complain, and nag. Blah-de-blah-blah.

So, this is why I hate being Chinese, but still I'm proud to be one.

So, everything seems fine. I'm starting to learn a little bit of Chinese from my "ta che" (big sisters). LOL Tomorrow, I'm working in the afternoon. So I have the whole morning to sleep in.

--------------------------------

Finished Marley and Me last night. This book was even harder to finish than the last Harry Potter novel. I couldn't stop crying (yes, I cry like hell when it comes to animals, esp dogs) Marley was such a happy-go-lucky dog, who still shows love to his owners, through his fatal conditions at old age. That made me cry, because it reminded me of my old dog, Brain, whom, at old age too, was still loyal to me and our family.

God bless Marley and Brain. R.I.P.

Next, I wanna read the adventures of the beedle the bard (this, I think I can finish it in a few hours) and the Pillars of the Earth!!! XD Need to pull my dad to the book store.

Failed my law test again. WHY is it must I fail such tests by one mark? Okay, here's the stupid thing.

I was doing my law test for the second time, 'cause I failed by one mark at first. There was ONE question yesterday, where I can't see the answer, so I had to randomly pick the answer 'cause the people couldn't do anything to make the answer visible.

SO! I clicked, clicked and clicked. And as it turns out...

I FAILED AGAIN BY ONE FUCKING MARK!!!

Right~ and one question is not important. It's times like these I want to condemn the government. Screw their brains!

------------------

So, I cried. And my dad scolded me. And I locked myself in my room. I slept terribly that afternoon. We went to church in the evening. I was somewhat eager to go to church 'cause it seems like going to church sucks the shittyness away. And it did. Felt better after that. Love you God. XD

I wanna add one more thing to my resolution.

MOVE OUT OF THIS COUNTRY!

My aunt was right. Malaysia sucks.

New Year Resolutions Time!

Here were 2008's...

Well, i DID most of what was on the list. I did get myself a guitar. I did go for a few art classes and learnt a bit more about perspective. I don't know if I cook better now, but I have embraced the art of baking! <3 Being a better person...thanks to Archie, I think I have-ish. Just need to erase the swearing habit a little bit more. I did clean my room...at one point... and then it got messy again. Also, at one point I did lose weight. But after Christmas, I think I need to reren the activity again... *cries*

So, 2009, here I come!!

New Year Resolutions

- be a neater person
- be a better person
- get my driver's liscence
- draw something realistic
- bake better
- cook better
- sing better...?
- um.. learn to shop for clothes...
- learn to be a real girl

Okay. That's just about it. I'm getting a job next week. Yaay!   What I really need to do now is to become more of my own gender...'cause well, whf, it's part of growing up innit? And people are judging you everywhere. Ah, well. I've adapted to earrings... (love playing with the dangly ones) and now on to...shoes and skirts...?!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, PEEPS!!!

LOL sometimes I just can't believe what I'm writing... *looks at previous post* *laughs*

Anyway, I'm in a super good mood today. Plainly because it's Christmas week!! XD And it's David Archuleta's birthday!! Happy 18th brithday, David!

So, Christmas week was spent in Sabah! XD There, I got closer to nature. Went hiking, snorkelling and running everywhere for Christmas gifts. So, anyway, at one point of the vacation, I was walking down the street and ame to a GLORIOUS christmas tree. It was beautiful. And some good feeling came over me. I felt good. No other words to describe but that one simple word.

So, yeah, I decided I prayed that night in the hotel. Actually. What I really wanted for Christmas was David Archuleta's album...'cause I was too pathetically poor to buy one. But, instead, I said, I didn't want the album, nor did I want anything. I wanted my family to be happy always. This though came over me...because after watching a few Christmas shows on the hotel tv and walking past the Christmas decos, I felt that that was what I really wanted. I wanted all our family problems to be solved, and I didn't regret saying that.

I bought...

David Cook album for my dad, because he likes David Cook.
Initial D album for my bro 'cause he likes cars.
Storybook for my sis 'cause I want her to read.
Fluffy slippers for my mum 'cause she cooks for us everyday.

And I was happy not expecting anything in return on Christmas day.

And well, that lead me to getting...

DAVID ARCHULETA ALBUM (my bro got it for me)
GUITAR (dad bought for me)

on David Archuleta's birthday!!!

I admit though, my mum bought me cross earrings and I found DAVID ARCHULETA LIVE STORY MAGAZINE earlier, but I guess you could say I bought it as a Christmas present for myself (since it was the ONLY thing I bought for myself). Spent 35.90 on that. I never regret buying it. XDDD

HIS SISTER LIKES ANIME! Can you believe that?
*ahem*
Anyway, that's why I'm feeling happy today. I guess its okay to get mad once in a while and rant like a mad idiot to get things of your chest. But it's also important to realize your sins and ask for forgiveness. Haha.

SO MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!

I SO NEED A JOB! Yala...Alci you have a job at an ice-cream joint...huhuhu

Well, I asked my dad can I have a job? My dad says can. DATTE! I can work AFTER Christmas. *bricked* So, I had a list of places I'd like to work in when I was still in school. We were asking each other... "So, if you had a part-time job, where'd you like to work?"

So, my list consists of Candy Shop(sucker for sweet stuff), Book Shop ('cause I can get discounts on books! Rabu Rabu~*), Starbucks (or some coffee joint), and/or supermarket. XD

Nelly texted me and asked if I wanted to go job-hunting at Spring this week... Idk, 'cause I'm not able to work before Christmas. So then I figured I could find a job that enables me to take a week of during Christmas week. ^^; So, well, I'll see.

In the meantime, my mum has assigned me to do house chores for money. And believe me, working for her ain't easy. =_=; You'll have to handle the nagnagnagnagnagging all day and well, you don't have your pals around to back you up. But, yeah, for the meantime, this is all I've got.

Tomorrow's list of chores

- vacuum floor
- mop floor
- dusting
- bathe dog
- clean the stairs
- arrange stuff

*stares* gee...wonder if I have time to log on to send in my doujin art to boss-sama for publishing... *cries* And I haven't started on that fudge yet...

*sits in corner and sings "Blue christmas"*
