S.H.E Auto Session Part I

I am not going to blog about the day yet. I want to get pictures from Yi Lin before blogging about it. Before proceeding, I hope S.H.E's fans will understand this. I am not exactly their biggest fans and I just began to like them this year. So I am a new fans and I think that I should raise this up because that's what I think and feel that is not right. I can't find and explanation good enough to make me feel less bothered by this matter. So if you can give me a better explanation, please do so. It'll make me understand better.

I waited for S.H.E at Queensbay, Penang. since 10.15 a.m yesterday. I was actually very excited although I did not want to admit it. I woke up at 7a.m and reached Yi Lin's place at 8.00a.m. However, my excitement stopped the time I stepped onto the stage. I am really thrilled to see them upclose and actually smile to them. However, they let me down slightly. When I was up there, they started signing my album. As I was among the last 20 or 30 people left, they signed pretty slowly. Too bad, the reason they sign slowly is not because they want to look up,smile and thank us but because they were busy talking, among themselves.

The conversations go as follows:-
Selina: Eh, remember that day we play mahjong? *signs, look up, smile, while talking about their mahjong story.*
Hebe: *keeps quiet, sign, look up, look down, sign the next one*
Ella: Yea,yea, the other day the mahjong. *looks up, smile* Thank you *continues talking with Selina.*

That two minutes on stage got me real disappointed. Although I still love them dearly, I think it was not a very good move. Especially when it took us 4 years to see you once. At least sincerely sign for us, thank us. You have so much time to talk among yourselves. After all, the ones you see every single day for 6 years are the three of you and we only get to see you after getting pushed around. This is just my point of view. Like it or not, I was disappointed. I understand about their not so proper signature cause they need to rush it. But explain the talk. =(

S.H.E. I wonder why I still like them. But I really do.

Looking forward to see them again. Hope it'll be better.

Bibibubu.

Well, since Ah Shan insist that I must give her some inspiration for her new blog entry, I just came up with something damn lame and hard for her. The title is 'Bibibubu'. What it means? How am I supposed to know? It was just another boring day when I looked at my MSN nick and I typed in bibibubu like this * pingping: bibibubu *. Anyway, I am very good at crapping my way out of something. So while I was bathing just now, I thought about what to write already. By the way, I think bibi is a nice name for my new teddy. When I get a new one, bibi will be its name. =) Ah Shan's bibibubu is so out of topic. Content also damn sikit. No give face. Some more dare to sms me and tell me that she has completed her post. -.-

This doggy's name also Bubu wor.

Has any of you heard people calling their other halves 'bubu'? One of my teddy's name is Bubu too. I even have Bubu Jr. cause I can't think of any names. I personally encountered it a few times and its funny how my Bubu's name is being used for couples. I guess Bubu sound as though we really really love something. I call my mum Ah Bu as in the hokkien version of mother. I do call her Mummy on and off. Anyway, does 'bubu' really stands for someone we love? Perhaps theirs are 'Booboo' la. You know? The song by Usher, 'My Boo'? Hmmm, that sounds more logical. Thanks to their songs, my Bubu gets to tumpang their fame. Haha. Anyway, its really funny thinking that my comot free teddy has the same nama manja with the couples out there.

This is my Bubu. Hee. nice? Free one. My favourite teddy.

Bubu Jr. Given to me by my buddies on my 17th birthday. Friends Forever.

Besides that, I also tell people that my nickname is Ahbu. You can see that in my blog URL right? I think its because I call my mum ahbu and my close friends started calling me ahbu too. Furthermore, when I found out that my favourite Fahrenheit member, Arron Yan Ya Lun's nickname is Ah Bu also, I refused to change mine. =P He is Arronbubest. I am Pingpingsuperduperbubest. Okay. I hiperbola a bit can?

When he don't smile, it seems like there's so much secrets in him.

And when he do smile, ah. Mesmerizing. Love.

Seriously. Love love love to the extreme.

I love this. Jiro's artwork. I love the way he draw Arron. So cool. L-R: Jiro, Wu Zun, Calvin, Arron.

What names do you give something you love? Be it husband, wife, things, pets, kids. Anything. 5xMom once mentioned *here* that her husband call her Ah Bee. Should be short form of Baby or something like that. That is what I call nama manja. Only people who are very close to you call you that. You don't get any stranger calling you that. Unless of course that's your name la.
And since I am on this topic, I shall list down a few names I heard of people calling their other halves. I shall skip all the honey,darling part cause well, I am sure you know those.
- Ney (short form for Honey)
- Ling (short form for Darling)
- Dardar (short form for Darling)
- Bee or Bi (Baby)
- Popo (short for Lou Po-cuter too.)
- Lou Po Chai (wife in Canto)
- Lou Kong Chai (hubby in Canto)
- Bubu or Booboo
- Deedee (Cuter version of Darling)
- Bao Bei (precious in Mandarin)
- Gong Zhu or Princess (melebih a bit =P )
- Zhu zhu or piggy or pig pig (some people just love to be pig -.-)
- Sayang (malay version)
- Bobo (sounds like dog's name. But it is something like Popo)
- Daddy (For those who got married and have kids already. Don't go call your boyfriend Daddy hah?)
- Mummy (For those who got married and have kids already. Don't go call your girlfriend Mummy hah?)
- Lau Eh (lol, Hokkien lang calls their husband like that.)

Google Bubu up. Not bad. Bubu also got many sites. Heee.

That's all I can think of right now. See?? Bibibubu is not that hard afterall. I did mention bibi in the very 1st er paragraph of my post right? Got a few lines okay?? So Shan, your turn to inspire me. Bed time now. Few more hours to see S.H.E. 3 of them came. Good good. S.H.E. ROAR!!!!!! =) i.love.s.h.e.e.e.e. Now you know who I love? =P

=.="

Sometimes, people can make you go 'huh?' 'what?' and then '=.=" '. Well, today, my mum went to some kind of talk and I was left with my cousin who is working with my mum. I call him Vincent. Anyway, he was doing his work and I was doing my homework in the room. Then I heard the phone rang and he picked up.

Vincent: Har? Something something-ly? Dia tak kerja sini dah.
(That's what I heard from the room. I don't know who he is talking about. It was kind of soft.)
Me: *Walks out, kaypo.* Eh, who called? Ask for who one? (Macam bos. Tapi anak bos pun bukan. =P)
Vincent: No la. They looking for Uncle Sunny. *looks as though nothing is wrong.*
Me: Then what you told him?
Vincent: I told him that Uncle Sunny doesn't work here anymore lo.
Me: *Eyes open big big and gasp* What? What you mean by he does not work here anymore? Vincent: They suddenly ask then I don't know what to answer ma.
Me: =.="

Okay. To explain why I was shocked and speechless, my uncle, Uncle Sunny passed away last September. Its almost a year already. My cousin told the person on the phone that my uncle don't work here anymore. Actually it is partially true that he is not working there already. How can he work right? He is not here anymore. But still, isn't it a little funny to be telling people that he doesn't work here anymore when he is gone? =.=" for Vincent.

The Weather

Inspired by Shan Shan's 'The Weather'

Sitting right here, in front of my computer, my speaker is on full blast. I guess this is the only way I can get myself away from the world. The world of lots of problems and no one to share with. When I look out of the window, everything is pitch black. No stars in sight. Perhaps I am blinded from all the good things in the world. The moon is always alone. Alone in the dark. Some may find it beautiful,enchanting. But me? I only see loneliness and unconditional sacrifices. Why? Why is it that somehow, someone will have to play that part? To be lonely and yet have to sacrifice so much.

Lately, I am back to the moody me. In fact, I actually enjoyed today. I spent less time talking and more time by myself. Although there's nothing going through my mind at that time, I just didn't feel like talking. I hate the sun. I hate the burning sensation on me. In sun, I sense anger. I sense dissatisfaction. Human are never satisfied. Some may think that sun is a very beautiful thing. Be it sunrise or sunset. Almost everyone loves them. Perhaps I am being pessimistic. When everyone are enjoying the sight of sunrise, I can only think of the problems I have to face and all the pretentious act I have to put up. Sunset however does not mean that it is the end of another problematic day to me. It somehow means I will face the loneliness the moon brings.



Beach, with gentle wind blowing on our face, we can easily find peace in it. And if you think I am not liking it, guess what? You are right. Beach, a very beautiful place to be in when you have the right crowd. It is not the beach, but the crowd. Lately I feel more and more drifted away from the people I used to be close to. I might be thinking too much and I admit, I am overly sensitive. I get angry over petty stuff and I get angry because people think I should not be angry over small things like that. Sometimes I feel that my feelings is not being cared for. When there is sun, people will enjoy going out to the beach and say how much they love it. But when it gets too hot, they blame the sun for shining so brightly. Is it even the sun's fault? The rising temperature is not because of the sun but because of the act of these people. The sun is just doing her part. I am more than just a sun. I am a very emotional sun. I feel unimportant, ALL THE TIME. I feel that people do not care about my feelings. Then I will ask myself. Will I do the same thing when this thing happens to me? At times, when my answers are yes, I will just shut up and forget about it. However, when I am positive that I will not treat them like this, I will think, is this all worth it? Will they take me for granted like how they take the sun for granted? At times I feel that people do not treat me like how they treat others. There might be two people doing the same thing. Me and another person. People will find that person cute and funny whereas for me? I am plain annoying, irritating and silly. I feel foolish. I feel hurt. It is not because I am jealous because everyone react differently to things I do if compared to other people. Maybe I was. But I was more hurt because I felt stupid. Why me? Why must it be me?

I was told that I should treat people they way I want them to treat me. I lost hope in that already. Perhaps I was wrong. All the bad guys get the best thing isn't it? They die of old age and not of some disease that bring them away from their beloved family a little too soon. Good guys die early. Is it because life is nothing but suffering? I keep a lot of things to myself. I am afraid to open up anymore. I am tired.

Note: This was actually inspired by Shan Shan's post. However, as I type on, emotions took over and it became a very emotional post. But I am trying to show how much different my vocabulary is compared to Shan Shan's. So much less flowery not because I love simplicity but because I have limited vocabulary.

My life is not that bad afterall.

Today is not a very good day. Although I admit that I made a very good progress in my school work and I actually liked it. Anyway, Pn. Chuah came to tell us that Excel and Ever Onward are not qualified for the final. I was a little sad cause Excel did not make it. I thought they had a very big chance. Well, whatever is over, is over. At least what matters to us most is the STPM examination, not some competition like this which only the certificate got our attention. We learnt, we fought, we survived. It is alright if we did not make it to the finals. Besides, after reading this article sent to me, I am even more positive with my life right now. At least right now at this moment. =P Enjoy. Sit back and think. It might not be that bad afterall.

At times, when we are facing difficulties or no-turning-back situations, we are able to think more rasionally. No? I feel that at times, we realize our mistakes a little too late. Appreciate everything and everyone around you while they are here. =) Have no regrets.

I saw the known loving couple in 10F is hitting each other.
I saw the usually tough and strong Peter in 9F is crying. 8F Ah Mei just found out her fiancee is sleeping with her best friend



7F Dan is taking her daily anti-depression medicine.





6F jobless Heng still buys 7 newspaper to search for a job every day.

Much respected Mr. Wong in 5F is trying his wife's undergarment

4F Rose again fighting with the boyfriend

Old Man in 3F everyday hoping someone would come by and pay him a visit.

2F Lily still staring at the picture of her lost husband since half year ago.

Now I just realized everyone has their own problems and worries

Before I jumped off from the building, I thought I was the most unlucky person.

After I had seen all these, I found out, in fact I wasn't that bad at all.

The people I saw just now is looking at me now.

I think after they see me now, they might feel they are not that bad after all.

ps: I kesian this fella who jumped down from the building. She is living in a social disaster neighbourhood. Every single floor, without fail sure got problems. The point here is that we must not always think that our life is bad. Grass is NOT always greener on the other side. We might have green grasses too if we spend more time appreciating our own grass and stop looking at the grass at the other side. So stop sympatizing yourself for the life you have, work it out. Everything will be fine.

AND......

Don't wear a dress like that if you ever ever think of doing this stunt. Actually, don't do this but then I am stressing on the dress now. Don't wear a dress and give free show even before you reach the ground can? -.- Later people get sore eyes or cannot win Toto 4-D 3-D, jackpot, mahjong, poker or anything else. Don't go around 'hai' (read: bring harm to) people can?

On another note, Ah Shan is now free to go Astro Talent Quest's finale with us. It'll be fun, I promise. I am not free on Saturday.

3 more days to go

Wah, he also very famous hor? =P

Lim Chih Heng. People actually google for him? =P

This one is long overdue already. Its last week's report. Wah, he also very famous hor? I should write his name more. Perhaps I might get people visiting my blog without them actually want to. Haha. I am so bored. Nothing much happened but well, trying to start my revision which I should have done half of it by this time. Trials is in a month's time for god's sake.

Yesterday I went to this AccQuiz held in YMCA by the MICPA kut. I am not sure. Like what Shan once said, I am horrible with this accounts names. I seriously need to do more research which I think I won't because I am not interested. I just like to interrupt when people talk about it and make a complete fool out of myself. So what? I syok. =P Anyway, its all in English. If only my accounts is better and I prepared for it. I might be able to answer more. But then again, I don't want to get into finals la. I was hoping that others can answer better despite the English which got me scratching my head. But now I am very very relieved cause only one team from each school has the chance to be in the finals which is obviously not my team. =) I get to see S.H.E already. The finals is on the 11th August in K.L. The Spellings and the General Knowledge is familiar to us cause we did a little research and googling and we actually spotted a few important things which eventually is part of the 75 questions. Not bad huh? It was not as hard as I thought it would be and it only took us 1 hour. Or should I say we were only given an hour to complete it. I hope the other team from our school, the Excel will do well. BRING BACK THAT TROPHY!!!! =P

I am bored but I am loving Kwok Fai's song more each day. I like 8 songs out of the 10 songs. The other two is okay but I don't gilakan the song. But still, it is not in the 'wah, cannot listen one' category. It is nice, just I prefer the other 8 songs more. =)
