Exciting new discovery!
Do you have an ulcer in your mouth?
Is your uler all bengkak and inflamed?
Does your ulcer hurt like PEDIIIIH?
Do you want to subside the pain?
HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO!
GOSOK GIGI!
I got this off a website:
Causes
1. Overreaction by the body’s own immune system
2. Stress, fatigue, illness, injury from accidental biting, hormonal changes, menstruation, sudden weight loss, food allergies and deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron and folic acid.
Ok I think can percaya this part.
Treatment
1. Antibiotics and steroids are reserved for severe cases
2. Local anaesthetic, such as lidocaine, for cases of multiple or severe oral ulcers
3. Topical gel Bonjela, which contains choline salicylate — choline salicylate is a local analgesic that helps to reduce the pain and inflammation associated with oral ulcers.
BUT BUT BUT! I think that’s all crap! I mean, fine maybe works for some people, but I tried Bonjela when I was yougner. Never worked. Pedih lagi ada lah. My theory is that the ulcer becomes painful when you don’t brush your teeth for a long time and then bacteria hinggaps on it and then jengjengjeng your ulcer sends you a signal that it wants to be cleaned. After you brush you rinse with Oral-B mouthwash if you have.
NOW I DON’T FEEL PAIN ANYMORE! (I think the mouthwash contains similar chemicals as some of the treatments above.)
Btw, now I realised I got two ulcers :\

OH NO BIG ULCER TIDAK JANGAN!
I can’t be falling sick now.

I haven’t actually done any Philo since 3 just now. Partly cos of movies and food and MY NOSE THAT KEEPS DRIPPING (I think thanks a lot to Zaff, or my doas to Allah that I’d fall sick enough to pon the last few days of school). But still! I used up half my tissue box until it’s empty): Plus I ate two panadols, which I’ve been trying to avoid cos I heard somewhere that they don’t dissolve and collect up somewhere in me :\
Okay ANYWAY, I’ll just pour my boredom into this blog, cos I’m hungry and Philo’s a no-go until I’m satisfied. SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF
Yes that’s how bad it is. Lagi I can’t stand having that discomfort up my nostrils.
You have no idea how quickly I use up 10 plies (sp?) of tissue.
1. Kakak keeps sleeping. Should ask her to wake up soon. Mummy’s gonna be maaaad.
2. Nenek shared some old stories ytday. Cik Ami used to wipe the fishes atuk bought when he was young cos they were wet. Then he’d put them back into the tank, so atuk would buy a new stock of fish for him the next day.
3. Oh oh atuk bought about 10-20 chicks sometimes (20cents each yo!) then CIk Ami would watch them waddle and chirp in the boxes so he wouldn’t disturb nenek while she cooked. Then he’d squeeze each one of them until nothing was moving anymore. Gross right ya tuhan.
4. Oh yes I met the triplets on Saturday during kenduri, forgot to mention. They’re 2 months old but are still so tiny! Akil’s foot is the length of my pinky finger. The three of them have their names printed on stickers, then when they go out, Cik Siti pastes them on their clothes so people can tell them apart. SO CUTE RIGHT! Pictures soon.
5. I watched What Happens In Vegas today. Very sweet romance comedy. Ashton Kutcher looks awesome and it’s a good lighthearted comedy if you’re feeling bored and don’t want something deep.
6. OH YES, I cut my hair. Just FYI.
7. My throat itches alah nothing’s working. Not even Kawan Si Nelayan. I think I might have to take Mummy’s Difflam although I hate the taste.
Alah now I’m pissed at myself. Cos I blame myselffor being stuck between a slight flu and a really bad flu. And I think I’m falling sick. Great.
As promised, PITCHERS!
He really is that tiny. Compare Cik Saadah’s hand and his.
Do you see the Akil sticker? (:
He did this on his own. CUTE KANN.
See? When I tried to take he already shifted position, and I tried to pry (BELIEVE ME I TRIED) his fingers apart but they were stiff like chicken feet. So I was scared I might break his bones if i tried too hard.
Look at how much he changed since I last saw him all red and crinkled.
Ok lah not that much but still! It was like carrying a tiny kitten.
I WANT A BABY BROTHER!
Oh Tuk Ramli just passed away at the hospital tadi.

When I think about blogging lots of stuff down, it feels like I’m writing the story of my life for people to read freely on the Internet. But when I blog too little, like on random major events and abandon my blog, I’ll look back and see how many memories I waste. Just like in Sec1, in my talkrot.bs blog, I’m still quite pissed I deleted the posts cos I’d like to know now how I actually wrote back then.
So now, everything I write should have priority to satisfy me(:
Friday was the last day of school, and of course, my sixteenth birthday. I woke up at 5 and started frying food for class party, which the school weirdly sets time for. I mean, can’t they call it free time? It feels so rigid, how we actually conform to… Okay I don’t even want to start. So anyway, “party” was good, cos we had food and drinks and a class video Huling put together. It’s so surreal; we’re in Sec 4 and the Sec 3 photos actually seem so far back, like we’ve been together forever. I cut the cake with Ms Chairperson who helped pull the thing off altogether. (The surprise wasn’t a surprise to quite a few people though, but nvm.)
So we cleared up and swept and mopped the floor, then I went with Filzah to set up Malay booth. Then afters, I decided I didn’t want to go home early on my birthday. So I ajaked Abu who was short on cash (3 bucks) to teman me the whole afternoon with a movie. Liy and Filzah weren’t in the mood, but ohwell, company is better than none. So dah lah penat2 we go to The Cathay, SEKALI TICKETS SOLD OUT. We got hold of ST which led us to buying tickets for MOH at Plaza Sing GV instead. Since I was craving for ice cream, we went to Swensen’s (17 bucks gone at this point). Ordered two Happy Hour Deals. My Nutty Mighty made my tooth crack, or maybe I just bit on a nut that feels really grainy and uncomfortable. There went another 23 bucks thereof.
I still can’t believe how much it costs to have a simple afternoon out with a friend. Sheesh.
Anw, Made Of Honour is a typical sweet romantic movie, but I love the fact that Patrick Dempsey cut back his stereotype fo being McDreamy and the loser of Sweet Alabama. He can ride a horse and juggle and looks awesome topless, so even though hte plot was predictable, I enjoyed the movie.
Of course, I enjoyed spending time with my most loser and lapar friend in school. Oh yes, she’s one of my best friends too lah. Birthday well spent.
Open house, to sum up in one word, is tiring. All those hours spent on preparing the school, the teachers, the students, all boil down to a day where parents come and go, come and go, and at the end of the day, your feet just feel like breaking. But nvm, towards the end, we got to make and eat roti kirai cos Mrs Abbas let us. HEH(:
Kenduri arwah was a couple of hours after I reached home at 530. Talked to Nurul (Saadah) most of the time, then ate what seemed to be the best Ayam Lemak Cili Padi EVAAA. Mmmmm 
I wanted to celebrate my birthday with whole family today, but seeing how Kakak is off doing her project, I’d rather postpone. Ohwell, here’s to a good week ahead. And a good Philo essay and mindmap due Wednesday. Haiyooo.
[EDIT] Funny!

Annual 500 dollars in.
I am so bersyukur to Allah nenek is sihat and is always there for us.
Alhamdulillah.
So this week’s been up and down up and down. But got no going round and round, so not like rollercoaster HAH. More like, sine graph. Started at zero with the fairly boring weekend. I just slacked and watched videos all the time. Monday was better, family came and we ate and watched Duyung.
Actually the peak of the week was just today. Lessons since Tuesday have been blah. No point wasting post space on them. Anyway today we found out who was crowned American Idol 7.
David Roland Cook.
And then Drama went AWESOME today. I am so so so proud of the cast for many reasons. The first, was to actually turn up. Second, goes out to those who can memorise a good protion of script alrd. Then lastly, for giving your all for practice, and actually making En Yusoff laugh (at his own script, mind you!). Bangsawan 08 is going to rock I’m telling you.
Except I don’t know if that’ll be the case for CIP. We haven’t gotten an organisation yet, for good reason. And it’s not Perbayu’s. Ah let’s leave it at that before vulgarities come out. No point blaming others, Aida.(:
Anyway, I think me and Sheila are quite bent on having Iftar this year. I hope Mrs Mo can approve, esp since Ramadhan is after “handover”. But I want to be known to be in that batch. The batch that cikgus and teachers will remember after how long. I like the idea of us actually (been happening a lot this year) do what we planned.
So Pulau Penyengat is for sure. YAY we’ve got a good break. And fun people are going, so bagus I think we’ll have a very kecoh and gila trip.
I feel really tired. I;m just waiting for Idol to end before sleeping. Michael Johns is so sexy I was gaping (?) at him as he sang Bryan Adams and a bunch of other songs. He just makes me melt inside. Ramiele came back too yayyy. Okay lah Brooke White isn’t that annoying since she’s no longer in the competition. Was looking out for Danny Noriega but I forgot he’s not in Top 12): Haha but Jason Castro showed his stuff with Hallelujah.
Speaking of Jason, I was just listening to I’m Yours by Jason Mraz. Mmm so sedap. I’ve always imagined my boyfriend singing for me, but I think it’d take a lot for him to sing well. The past week I’ve learnt to enjoy and appreciate the littlest things in life. From friends, to nature, to the smallest things people remember about you, like your birthday, shouldn’t be overlooked. I am so glad to have those around me, and that there are achievable expectations laid out before me. I’m striding in my own space with little control, so I think I should be very grateful.
Alhamdulillah. It’s been a good week.

I thought, Heck, Declan Galbraith needs a whole post for himself. He’s 3/4 Irish and 1/4 Scottish, and will turn 17 on 19 December this year. Songs with lyrics are recommended. Oh I realised “All Out Of Love” down there, can’t have been sung when he’s 12. Cos he only released the album with that song in 2006. That would make him about 13 when he sang it. My bad(: AND I saw on Wiki that he sang Tell Me Why in 2002, so he’d be 10. So that’s quite impressive (it’s great so listen to that first.)
I think it’s the hair plus the face, but he looks oddly like a cross between Danny Jones’ old days and Carlos from Barney and Friends :\
Tell Me Why
In my dreams children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue the fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need
Tell me why, does it have to be like this
Tell me why, is there something I have missed
Tell me why, I don’t understand
When somebody needs somebody
We don’t give a helping hand
Tell me why
Every day I ask myself what I have to do to be a man
Do I have to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am
Is that what my life is for
To waste in a world full of war
Tell me why, does it have to be like this
Tell me why, is there something I have missed
Tell me why, I don’t understand
When somebody needs somebody
We don’t give a helping hand
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Just tell me why
Tell me why (why why does the tiger run)
Tell me why (why why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why why do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?
(Why why do we say we care)
Tell me why (why why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why (why why do the dolphins cry)
Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die
(Why why if we’re all the same)
Tell me why (why why do we pass the blame)
Tell me why (why why does it never end)
Can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends
Why Why.
An Angel
I wish I had your pair of wings
Had them last night in my dreams
I was chasing buterflies
Till the sunrise broke my eyes
Tonight the sky has glued my eyes
Cause what they see’s an angel hive
I’ve got to touch that magic star
And greet the angels in their hive
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
All the sweet honey from above
Pour it all over me sweet love
While you’re flying around my head
Your honey kisses keep me fed
I wish I had your pair of wings
Just like last night in my dreams
I was lost in paradise
Wish I’d never opened my eyes
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
But there’s danger in the air
Tryin’ so hard to be unfair
Danger’s in the air
Tryin’ so hard to give us a scare
But we’re not afraid
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
Sometimes I wish I were an angel
Sometimes I wish I were you
Wish I were you
Oh I wish I were you
All Out Of Love
I’m lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart
For times when my life feels so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring
When today doesn’t really know, doesn’t really know
(chorus)
I’m all out of love, I’m so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I’m all out of love, what am I without you
I can’t be too late to say I was so wrong
I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from these long, lonely nights
I’m reaching for you, are you feeling it too?
Does the feeling seem oh, so right?
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I can’t hold on?
There’s no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I’ll be gone, I’ll be gone…
(chorus)
Ooh, what are you thinking of
What are you thinking of
What are you thinking of
What are you thinking of
(chorus x2)
All out love baby
I was so wrong
Tears In Heaven (at 14 like ZOMG.)
Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven?
Would you feel the same if I saw you in Heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
‘Cause I know I don’t belong here in Heaven
Would you hold my hand if I saw you in Heaven?
Would you help me stand if I saw you in Heaven?
I’ll find my way, through night and day,
‘Cause I know I just can’t stay here in Heaven
Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please
Beyond the door, there’s peace I’m sure
And I know there’ll be no more tears in Heaven
Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven?
Would you feel the same if I saw you in Heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
‘Cause I know I don’t belong here in Heaven
Vincent (Starry Starry Nights) One of my favourite songs sung as his voice was breaking.
From the album he released last year, at 16,
Love Of My Life
Love of my life, you hurt me
You broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life can’t you see
Bring it back bring it back
Don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know what it means to me
Love of my life don’t leave me
You’ve taken my heart now desert me
Love of my life can’t you see
Bring it back bring it back
Don’t take it away from me
Because you don’t know what it means to me
You will remember when this is blown over
And everything’s all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side
To remind how I still love you
I still love you
Hurry back hurry back
Please bring back home to me
Because you don’t know what it means to me
Love of my life
Love of my life
You And Me
Ego You

Don’t kids say the darnest things?
Now for the best of the singing ones,

Today was pointless in school la. But ’sokay, 406 being extremely cool racked up a huge order of Macs and we ate it during Mona Lisa Smile. I love that movie; there’s nothing more inspiring than a strong-headed/willed woman who teaches you the right stuff, AND is not a feminist. (: With the rain pouring and all of us awwing and oooohhing in sync at different part of the movie, I think I’m so blessed to be in an amazing class where everyone thinks alike.
Did much better for SS and English than I expected, and although Malay wasn’t that great, I tell myself to hold my head up and keep moving forward, cos you can’t do anything else. Crying doesn’t solve anything. It just helps relieve yourself, so I save all that melodrama for terrible results, cos what’s done is done, as Shakespeare said.
Mrs Haugen’s good-luck-for-exams card for us has “To 406 Chunky Funky” on the front of the envelope. Hahaha that tickled me for quite a bit.
Look at this guy sing:
And this guy dance:
