THANKSGIVING

My first thanksgiving in USA.... how was it??

frankly..

this is my first time that I felt welcomed to this land of liberty. Thanks to RJ, for you had make my thanksgiving experience memorable. People says that the first will be remember forever; I will remember RJ as the first American to invite me to celebrate thanksgiving with his lovely family and his sis's two little cute kids =))

i forget to snap any single pic, coz the food was awesome. Thanks again RJ.


and Imran Luqman and Haniff came to Minnesota late on that evening because they miss me to shopping for Black Friday in this cool awesomawesome land of Minnesota. Myself shop thriftly too, and one of the item was a bear of Spongebob =P

and we had an amazing potluck and mafia games on saturday at Poji's.

What a wonderful thanksgiving in America. I gain a lot of experience, and weights too. (Non-stop eating from wednesday night till saturday night =P )

And with finals approaching, how on earth I am going to hit the treadmill of Rec Center?



P/S: Kenapa aku x story apa2 pasal Aidil Adha yek??

mathemagic

math is cool.


yeah. I love math. I never love math when I was in high school
but I love math more than I did now.

biology can't be practiced without chemistry. Chemistry is not justifiable without physics. Physics is nothing unless you know math to do it.

Like I said, math is the fundamental of everything, the fundamentals of universe. It's like a sequence that keep diverging to infinity. lol

so will I perform on this midterm exam? I had no idea..

studying hard for Exam FM

fuh~~~

my only big goal

to pass Exam FM

Japanese Latinos

I have to make a very serious decision

In order to fulfill my 2nd language requirement, I have to take 4 sems of 2nd language. After jotting down so much consideration, I decided that I either should continue with Japanese or start from the very beginning of Latin (Spanish)

I love Japanese Language, I miss all moments learning with sensei at high school. Japan itself it's a land of beauty and treasure (besides sexy geisha harajuku gila girls and yakuza yg bajet macho =P ). Only god knows how eager I am to continue to learn it.

On the other hand, living in America is about speaking Latin (Spanish). America ferrera itself is about a world of Latin. You can hear people speaks Latin at all times. It's feel so sexy to hear and to speak Latin. Sometimes regard as a low class language because there's so many immigrants who work at restaurant and as custodians (mcm bangla la kat Malaysia ). But still, people converse in Latin. I learn salsa dance. I learn everything originating from Latin World (Puerto Rico Mexico etc. ). Salsa Mambo Rumba ChaCha Merengue (dance class soo syiook)

Teringat zaman muda2 dulu skip sekolah petang semata2 nak tengok Rosalinda La Usurpadora Betty La Fea mcm2 lagi.... heeeee

So guys, can you help me making decision?

P/S: Jangan nak memandai2 korang nak suggest aku amek French ke Thai ke Italy ke, cukup lah dua ni pun dah serabut kepala otak aku. But if you suggest Korean, I would put it on consideration list (jelezzz mak cik fanatik korean a.k.a Zahidah dengar aku nak belajar korean. hehe )

I fall in love with.... SQUASY!!!!

lol

Happy Halloween!!!!

p/s: It's super freaking fucking out there and you can still wear short skirts and pants and dress up to be Jack Sparrow and Star Trooper and... oh, I haven't see MJ yet... salute these men and girls.. and to my friends... i can't stand the cold out there. so i end up my occasion earlier. especially when they goes drunk. larikkkkkkk~~~~~~

recreational dinner

Fact One: I work on Bailey Dining Hall
Fact Two: I have my own locker at Recreation Center (Gym)

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

Ok, there is a logical problem with this two fact. First of all, I make gym as my 2nd home, going there to do fitness and exercise and squash and stalk swim(soon) almost the time@whenever I free. Gym had been the best stress relief after class

And plus I'm currently working at Dining Hall. So you know, as employees you get the advantage go eat as much as you like ( and steal pizza as much as you want =) So how on earth I gonna get slim and fit on time? All my 10 laps on treadmill are useless anyway if i eat like a mad cow.

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

My assistant manager reminds me of Ms. McCluskey (from Desperate Housewives ). A strict old lady, oh, she really is Ms. McCluskey But I enjoyed working there. My manager is so0o0o sporting, and my co-workers are really a bunch of funny and skanky boys. lol. we steal off the pizza, eating up the fish chips, making fun of the old lady, and chat and brag. they make the atmosphere warm and welcoming.

Working is about stealing french fries and bringing pizza home. and getting paycheck every two weeks.

and Americans rarely eat fish. I hardly find fish here (except at Asian market). no wonder they go crazy when FDA approved the new soybean which increases the amount of Omega 3. I myself never complain about lacking of Omega 3. I eat fish every single day back at Malaysia. now i miss fish so much.

that's all for now folks. Enjoying my day watching falling leaves from trees. Halloween's approaching.

so who's Amanda now?

Minnesota Orhestra: Broadway Rocks

Minnesota Orchestra give another kick off performance last friday. Broadway Rocks! features the new Pop Conductor Sarah Hicks and 4 singers, proudly named Anne Rufoldson, Capathia Jenkins, Gary Mauer and Doug LaBrecque.

together with Minnesota Orchestra and Twin Cities Gay's Men Chorus.

I wonder if the male choir group are all really gay. coz they look old.
gay=happy. so It's a happy choir, I assume. lol

btw, they give a kick ass performance with some of my favorite from Circle of Life from The Lion King, Medley from Mamma Mia!, The Phantom of The Opera (and music and the night), I will Survive, You Can't Stop the Beat from Hairspray, Pinball Wizard from Tommy, And I Am Tellin' You from Dreamgirls and so much more.

I was agape in excitement and amazement listening to Gary Mauer's wonderful voice in This Is The Moment and Total Eclipse of the Heart. I was like ''wow, sedap gile babeng dowh''

and after that we had chances to buy their album and getting their autograph. I pon feeling2lah nak dapat autograph gary mauer nih. Sanggup keluarkan $20 tau... yg kesiannye Capathia Jenkins nie ala2 Jennifer Hudson sket (gempal2 hitam giteww... ) x ramai nak beratur nak autograph die. kesian I tengok dia...... mentang2 lah die gemok uols xnk beli album dia. jahat la korang nih (cakap orang pulak =P)

and the concert encored with Aquarius/Let the Sunshine Begin. I pon pretend2lah pernah dengar lagu tuh, padahal x pernah dengar (lagu 60'an mane I pernah dengar ya oooiiiiiii). So i pun dgn x malunya tanyelah mak vogue kat sebelah I yg sama2 menari dengan I masa lagu Dancing Queen

"Oh you didn't know this song?''
Hello, muka I nie tua sangat ke I nak lahir tahun 1960?? lol

Sometimes I wonder how American appreciate the music so much well than us. I notice that classical music was full with youth and teenagers; Broadway concert was the other way round, fill with oldies who wish to reminiscence their youth and to feel like young again as in ''those were the days....''

Sometimes i wonder if I were born in Broadway City-oriented like NYC or Chicago or Minneapolis. I wonder what would my life be. I will raised with musical theater and broadway show. I will have chances to watch The Wiz and Wicked. My life is all about theater and music. I might be become an actor, who knows ( of coz not a singer coz my voice sounds like a frog)

But anyway I was grateful to born in Kuala Lumpur. I wish we were more aware with performing arts as an important part of, not just education, but life as a whole. Most of American will perform a play before they leave high school. Have we done that? Most of American join either band or choir. While we stuck up in extra classes as the exams approaches.

That's what I thought after watching the concert.
