Doc Martin a must-watch!

Now, I don't know whether it's my fascination towards British*coughs* accent *coughs* comedy but I simply look forward towards catching this Brit-drama every Wednesday night on Hallmark channel. Doc Martin, is well, about a doctor who is socially challenged (no, he's not retarded or anything), he's simply "mean", or find hard to express himself. And what's so fascinating about that?

Well, I think by the 3rd episode, you may find yourself rooting for him, like in the case of pursuing his leading lady whom you might just think she might have knocked herself over something to find Martin attractive at all. But, he's got his charm; one thing I've read in Notes from a small island by Bill Bryson is that you may find British people has a dry sense of humour; I think it reflects that perfectly well in Doc Martin, in which I found funny, in irony. I mean the straight face and all, how could you not laugh at that?




Good read, I find it amusing that even as an "American-living-in-the-UK-still-feels-like-a-tourist Bryson" has a knack in telling his own experience travelling around the UK. Often I find it hard to continue reading when I stop somewhere, but I can still pick this book anywhere in the middle, beginning, and continue from there.


Doc Martin airs every Wednesday on the Hallmark Channel-702 at 9 p.m. (Malaysia- Astro)

Great. i (actually) browsed through 139 pages on Twitter to find my name. And I missed it. I found I was a follower before President-elect Barack Obama, Roger Hamilton and even Sir Richard's own company, Virgindotcom. I was so close!

Anyways, Congrats to 2000th follower Jademayari for winning the autographed poster above. For those of you who don't know yet, I'm a huge admirer of this great entrepreneur and do check out his blog here. Amazing person; this is the only person I know who believes that sky is the limit when it comes to opportunities, I think for him, space would be more appropriate. It's definitely my dream to meet him in person; perhaps able to work with him, one day.


I would recommend you to get "Losing My Virginity" by Sir Richard Branson. It's an eye opener, I swear the book is a page turner, it tells of his story on his personal as well as career life; how he built Virgin. I don't think one could put down this book without feeling inspired, and it shows that he's a living proof on earth that, "Nothing is really impossible". I say, it's a good book to start the new year.

Stay Just A Little



This is for today.
For the gloomy weather.
For the day you felt stupid.
That you made that decision.
We have all been there.

And we all want to say, "Would you just stay a little?"

Iron Man is a Fairytale afterall

A photo which was posted on Flickr caught the eyes of the makers of Iron Man's attention and it became the backdrop of the movie's poster. Cool beans! Check out the story here. and the pic here.


And I cannot believe how fast time flies, I was wishing I could grow up sooner and then now I'm 19 turning 20. And you know what they say, it's all downhill from now onwards. I need to get those miracle "goat's testicles" cream Christine Baranski (Mamma Mia!) is using! She may be 56 years old, but she looks hella fine, maybe it's just the plastic surgery and botox, but hey great legs! And she played Trixie of the tele-version of Speed Racer. Now everybody say, "Cool beans!"

And lunch break. I don't know what is that thing, but that "thing" makes me look back at what I've written and I feel like a starting a new post. rare occasions like this one, I make an exception. okay. I'm proud to announce that I officially feel "adult" now. okay, before you get any ideas, it doesn't mean I went and watch some porn. Gosh, that is a totally different thing. I was supposed to get my own Maybank account for my salary purposes, and my dad suggested me to get a visa debit. Okay, it's not exactly credit card, but hey, now I can supposedly shop online without adult surpervision. Okay. It wasn't supposed to sound like that, but you get the drift. It's one cool looking card too.


I've always wanted to get those Visa payWave; it's almost too cool, like how you wave and pay for your favourite Starbucks drink. Tsk tsk. I sometimes find it hilarious that I'm that easily amused. Like giving a candy to a kid *jumps*, except I didn't like candy when I was a kid. What a bummer, when I found out that you can only withdraw up to 4 times a month and then you have to pay 5o cents every time you use it. Old scrooge! Now, I have to find out whether I can withdraw my Paypal funds with it (not that I have any left for now, I just bought my Christmas gift! :p) Okay, shush! I've revealed too much already.

I've been a very lucky girl

No. That's absolutely bull. But, hey I can't complain, really. I think I've been watching too much of Channel E! that I'm stuck with 25 Stylish Celebrities, Weddings Dos & Don'ts even when I'm supposed to be working right now. And I think Keira Knightley's pixie hair is gorgeous and that is like eons away because she has had that hair since God knows when, but maybe I just have to much in my mind or not, thinking whether I should stick to having a short do. Am I even making sense?
"I'm a very lucky girl" Love that do, gotta love that accent!


Speaking of who's the lucky one, Britney looks sweet as ever on the latest issue of Glamour. And now you lose your doubt towards what makeup and lots of airbrushing and photoshop-ing can do for you. Dang, I have no doubt that it can bring the dead back alive. hmm..

But I'm not a Britney hater, as a matter of fact, I still adore her. Given her comeback, and acceptance of Bambi Awards for Best Comeback (whatever), I think it does proves that many people still root for her to succeed and likewise. Recent news, says that she throws up after her meals; they desperately needed to justify her weight loss of over 12.7kg last year. Gosh, here's to proving that she's more popular than ever. Bad publicity is still publicity, but really, LEAVE her ALONE! too shay.

Gosh, TGFI. Yes, thank God for the internet. Being in the workforce, contributing to the country's economy so to speak, isn't really the best thing because it sucks the life out of you. Not to mention, I have a non-existence life, and am in dire need to crawl out to civilization, pronto. I'm speaking like a diva, no? But seriously, I'm once again not being productive, day to day, and I'm turning into a dinosaur (not the size, the brains).

Good thing is, I'm writing again. Not that I'm not by blogging, I mean real writing (the characters, the scene, the emotions) I'm glad. I'm still pretty much a closet writer but I'm contemplating, okay, not exactly that, but actually I'm working towards getting closer to coming out with my dot com. So, watch out for that. I can't wait.


or

Okay, I'm not really considering. But I'm glad a few of my college mates will be going over, and I get a free place to stay if I go over to Melbourne. Hah. xD But it would be super fun I know, but I think this is it. You know do the thing, the spread your wings and fly high! One of the main reasons on why I chose that and not this. But we should get together, REAL soon!
