being a girl

Ok i have a lot to update about my upcoming W-day. Sekarang terasa penurunan semangat nak survey B2B blogs, usha2 portfolio makeup artists, photographers, inspiration of hall decos, pelamin dan segala2 nya. Haihh.. I guess due to recent negative happenongs at work + workload yg never seems to end, terus down semangat ni. Serious lah. My work and this certain person from hell at my dept macam dah suck the fun out of my life. Like a leech!!!! Umum tahu bahawasanya I memang lah takde life sgt pun sejak dua menjak transfer ni kan. But haihh... Dah makin critical dah ni nampak nya. Benci lah. Mr.Man is a busy man nowadays. Takpelah. Demi masa depan keluarga. Wah wah wah. But seriously, nak dating pun cam kena plan betul2 find the time. In a way, it is good jugak as org2 tua kata, tak elok sgt jumpa selalu sebelum kahwin. Oh this reminds me, I will need to plan for a movie date with him. Rasa2 nya adalah nk dekat 2 bulan kot tak catch the latest movie. Ok wow. How immersed i am with my work :p Baiklaaaahhhh. I'll put this in my to-do list now.

Okkkkkk back to W-preparation. So far these are the few items that have been confirmed:

• Makeup for my reception
• Lova Cinta (Contact no: 016-6720 445)
• Deposit paid oredy. Yeayy! Over the phone, she sounds very veryyy friendly.Finally I managed to find a female makeup artist yg within my budget and with nice portfolios.Initially i was torn between Ayang Kamell and Lova. I think Ayang's strength lies in the eye makeup. Cantik2 belaka. But kerana tegar mahu kan female, maka Lova it is :)
• Catering for nikah and my reception
• Nikah (one of the cateres provided by Masjid Wilayah) - Yang ni tiada pilihan. Semoga sedap.
• Reception (Faris Catering, based in Kg. Pandan) - Have tasted the food during a relative's wedding. The thing I like most about Faris ni is (besides the yummy food. Crew2 masak adalah org2 ala2 mamak Penang. Confirm beriyani lazat kan. The owner itself mmg mamak originated frm Penang pun), the worker on duty yang tukang2 kemas and clearkan meja tu, adalah sgt efficient! Sangat cepat bersihkan meja and refill food pun pantas je. Actually I could get a cheaper price from Faris.Seriously. Tapiiiiiii sebab he said my dewan is situated at Level 2, and therefore he needs more workers to angkat2 barang semua.Maka tak dpt lah kurang. Kalau buat kat rumah, boleh. Ok fine.Tapi nak angkat2 barang semua tu bukan suruh naik tangga pun. Ada lif.Macam nk argue di situ. Tapiiiii xpelah. Malas nak pening.
• Venue for my reception
• Dewan Wisma Sejarah
• What more can i say. Hehe. Dewan idaman! As you all know that eventhough I stay in lala-land Rawang, but my reception is gonna be done in KL. Why? Relatives, friends, rakan2 ibu bapa byk yg di KL.Kira mcm nk senangkan perjalanan merekalah.Lagi pun kat rumah, panas.Hehe. Ok betul tak tipu.Kepanasan Rawang dah mcm kat Texas. (Like I've been there lah kan. Hahaha). What i like about this Dewan is, first of all, it's within my budget. Itu yang paling penting. The rental includes aircond + kerusi + meja + PA system. It's fully carpeted and ada mini stage and tirai for the pelamin lagi. Senang. The dewan is not too big or too small. Just nice.Kalau besar sgt mcm dewan DBKL yg kat Jelatek (antara pilihan awal nak buat kat situ sbb mcm baru renovate kan), nak kene fikir deco2 takmo hall nmpk kosong sgt kan. Cost lagi nnt. The person in charge ni sgt2 ah penyabar and kind. Rasa2 nya dah byk kali call sbb tukar date booking.Hehe..
• Dulang hantaran + the deco
• Bought in Nilai. Dah siap deco sumer dah. Tinggal nk letak and susun the barang2

I have mentioned cost a few times kan? Because we are getting married and buying a house all at the same time. Peghhh. Pening x pening? Mr.Man lah yg pening.Hehehe. I sebagai penenang je. But still lah kan. Cannot lah have both secara extravaganza bukan? Lagi pun kami merancang berbulan madu ke suatu tempat yg agak high-cost. Semoga lah menjadi kenyataan. *crossing fingers* I rather spend on honeymoon rathern than wedding yg satu hari je ni.Ok mungkin nk splurge sikit on makeup and  baju. Yg lain tu sederhana2 sahaja xpe. Yang penting nmpk cantik.

Ok lah.. Till the next update. Boss dah panggil mengadap. Toddles! :)

i want!!

Hasil scan from the Bridal Guide mag. Not that clear but basically this is what i want. (The one on the left)Best nya kan kalau dapat.

The journey has started.....

My journey towards Mrs-ship is approximately 8 months from now. His family came for an official risik session on the 28th of Feb. My family has no experience in kawen2 thingy ever since I'll be the first child to get married in the family. Naseb baiklah cuti 3 hari that weekend. Dari kemas2, tukar ganti langsir, basuh toilet, cat toilet sampai lah ke tang masak2, all were done on our own. No close relatives dtg tolong2. My parents thought it was a private event pun, risik2 je, bukan nk bertunang pun. But.. Risik pun dah kire cam bertunang kan. Pening lah. Kan? Wahatever. Janji THE dates have been finalized. We have been talking about getting married for quite some time already. So when he told me that his family was coming over,I was ecstatic :) There were a few funny moments during the whole merisik2 thingy. Kena makan sirih lah, blur2 bila nk kena sarung cincin lah..Hehehe..But it was all goooooddd... The preparation of a wedding is indeed exciting!! Up to today, some of the stuff has been settled and finalized. Adala a few things yang nak survey2 lagi. Venue has been secured. Yayyy!!! The venue was kinda hotspot given that it was fully booked until end of this year. Naseblah baik dapat jugak. Dates of course, have been agreed by both sides. And yang paling menakjubkan is all 3 events - nikah, my reception and his will all be done in 3 consecutive days. Weeee!!! Penjimatan annual leave!! I loiikkkeee :) Tempat nikah also secured. Another one big yayy for that.Hehe.. Alhamdulillah. All those major things have been done I think. Even caterer for my reception dah selamat di book. The rest are still work in progress. Will be going to PWTC this weekend for Matta fair and tht Pameran Pengantin. Cant hardly wait!!! Hopefully there will be amazing deals for our honeymoon :)

Hihihihihi....

from today onwards, this blog will be my lil' black book in updating my preparation, sweat, tears and laughs towards THE day :)

Wish me luck lovelies!

my kinda style

i have loved this girl ever since she was first involved in Malaysia's very first Project Runway. Being the only scarf-wearing girl, of course she has got my attention from the start. After the show ended, I continued following her updates here. Why I love her? Her sense of fashion and styles somewhat matched my own, if not all, most of it. Cute, attention-grabbing accessories, siap dgn tema2 comel mcm Alice in Wonderland, Wizard of Oz, sgt old-school, sgt vintage, sgt oldies in a very very creative way. Her style mmg laaa lain frm the designers typically do in Msia ni haa. Her speciality is in mix-matching different pieces and creating a fabolous outfit. Sgt cool ok! Her idea of wearing layers of different stuff mmg menakjubkan. Plus the candy-coloured, adorable stuff. I love!!!!! Anywayssss, she is about to open up a store yay!!! This is good news alrite :D. Starting from selling online, sekarang dah bukak kedai. So inspirational lah. It's not yet open, but I do really hope its gonna be soon!! Details can be found here --> Jezmine the Shopper.

Nota kaki:

Why did Malaysia stop doing the Project Runway show ye? It is a good platform for budding Msian designers to show wht they are capable of and also all the publicity tht comes with it. In its first ever season (and also the last) there were Zerry Zamry, Nurita Harith and not forgetting Hatta Dolmat. Not tht they're not well-known enough before the show (e.g. Hatta Dolmat is kinda well-established dah pun) but I think after the show,lagi ramai org tau siapa mereka2 ini. And i terus follow Zerry Zamry lepas tu. Heh.. I believe, this show should be continued. Dah terlalu byk sgt reality show on singing and even acting. And some of the products or the winners kadang2 tak ke mana pun. At least with a fashion reality tv show, we could initiate the first step in creating many more Bernard Chandrans and Jimmy Choos in the future...

1,2,3.. Testing testing.. Blogging frm Berry2!!

hari ni bangun dgn perasaan lapang hati and gembira (alhamdulillah..). After a whole lot of ordeal the past few weeks. Some crappy work stuff, kene marah dgn boss, fights and arguments with the parents and Mr.Man (but dah make up yay!). Letih gila lah otak. Dahla i am famously known as Ratu Air Mata. Lagi lah. Thank God ada concealer, memang genius pencipta nya. Hahah.. Lawaklah bila ingat balik Anyhouuuuuuu... I am gonna post up some updates of my life the past few weeks that I was gone. Let the pictures do the talking..

Aaarrrghhhhhh...

"Paris Hilton’s My New BFF"

Well i seriously dont know where to begin. I have never got the chance to watch this yet. I stumbled upon this when I was busy surfing the net researching for taxation law when tadaaaaaaaaaaaa... Bimbo sungguh laa. Amazing thing is, it lasted for 3 freaking seasons and even managed to make its way to Britain and Dubai. Amboi. Seems like the whole world wants to know what this Ms Socialite is up to. But seriously, my brain somewhat refuses to embrace the concept. To find a new BFF through a reality show? I could sense a hint of despration there. And the winner? What is she trying to prove or she can prove by bagging away the main title? Best la kot kena kejar dgn paparazzi. Pictures will be all over the internet, mags, u name it. Lepas tu, come the 2nd, 3rd season and Paris selected her new winner-BFF-wuteva, you're history already.

if you have THAT much money, you can buy anything - even (best) friends

Oh boy. SangatTakBolehBelah ok. Please don't fall for this people. Let's indulge in something else more enriching and stimulating to the mind and soul. Like Drop Dead Diva.

"life looks different the second time around"

Once you've started watching, you'd sure be hooked :)

and this too, shall pass....

"I admit it's tempting to wish for the perfect boss - the perfect parent - or the perfect outfit. But maybe the best any of us can do is not quit, play the hand we've been dealt, and accesorize what we've got" - Carrie Bradshaw, SATC

Nobody said it like you did Ms.Carrie Bradshaw. Often we complained of the less-satisfactory conditions in our lives that we forgot to just be grateful of what we have now. Our endless whining and complaining sometimes tempted us to just go on and on about our misfortune that sometimes it distracted us from seeing clearly. In hard times like these (I am referring to my fast-going-down-south mood/motivation to work), all we could see is negativity. True. Who in the right mind could still whole-heartedly work when bosses are demanding, nature of work is just getting harder and harder that it made you question of your own capability, smart but stuck-up people who refused to help you and all sorts of crappy things that are beyond your control (nonsensical policies,anyone?). Seriously, I think I'd get grey hair & wrinkles faster than I'd imagine. Oklah, I am not gonna say "Hey, let's think positive and bust our butts off happily and finish our work like we're told to!" No, no that'd be suicidal. But since our endless whining & complaining are not taking us anywhere (kalau kite komplen pastu boss baik hati nak panjangkan deadline and allow balik rumah sharp pukul 5 hari2 tu best lah jugak kan..) Mungkin lah we need to rethink our strategies. Optimize the options whateva that we have now, eventhough I know they're not much. Survival is the only way to go as far as I can see. I know its a very hard thing to do. Macamana nak perform kalau you are motivationally being degraded everytime you tried your best? (Tulah kalau people cannot see or just refuse to see the way you do.Ni lah masalah nya dgn generation gaps..) As what Carrie Bradshaw said, accesorize with what we've got. And I am gonna try very hard to do just that. Wish me luck..

sunday morning,rain is falling...

Yesterday when I was browsing through the bookshelves at Borders...I came across this:

Ok, besides the attention-grabbing graphic on the cover, what I am interested in the most is the fact that this book contains no E's at all!!! (this is the whole purpose of this book). Serious. I schemed through lah kan. Memang betul takde. The word "the" yang paling koman sekali pun langsung not being used anywhere in the book at all. Hmm..Out of curiosity, nak beli ke tak?

saturday's thrills & spills

i am still under heavy sedation of my fever, flu and cough meds. But nevertheless...I am very excited to tell you what i've been up to today.

As it is the wedding season, I went to a kenduri with my family, like what I have been doing for the past 1 month. It was all nice and pretty and very pink. Food was marvellous.Siap interview the caterer, for the purpose of my own research. Aaaanddddd next....Ok here comes the highlight of my day.. off I went to The Curve with Mr.Man. Ada gig yay, ada gig yay!!!

Okla actually it wasnt really a gig lah. A friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of Mr.Man is a renowned photographer.He was having this exhibit for his artwork where a number of his photographers friends came to take snapshots of interesting happenings of the day. So i guess, the mini show where Mr.Man was supposed to perform, was sort of a selingan for the crowd that came by today.Dahla kitorg sampai sejam lambat.Definitely not fashionably late.Memang lambat gile.Sampai2, org dah ramai.Ingat sikit je..sekali tu adala dlm 30+ ppl. Whoaaa.. Mr.Man of course, nerve-wreck abes, as this was the first time ever he played the drums in front of THAT many people.Ramai okkkk. When the time came, it turned out to be awesooomeeeeeeee!! *loud applause* As an amateur drummer who only practised on Rockband, I think the outcome was pretty well-done.Bangga I tau.Tihihihih... The band performed 3 songs by Oasis, "Live Forever", "Some Might Say" and "Don't Look Back in Anger". Nice choice. Maka I, of course, secara otomatik menjadi camera/video girl.Menggigil jugaklah tangan nak maintain blackberry tu dari bergegar while they played 3 songs consecutively.

All in all, I think it was a very good experience. I have been wanting to see him performed live since forever.Finally, dapat jugak.Not as a guitarist though.Next time you main lah gitar pulak. Please please pleaseee.. Hehehe.. Since ramai betul photographers yg dtg, agak segan lah jugak I dok snap2 gambar and record the performance pakai phone je.Orang lain semua slr tahap bazooka with all the super canggih lenses.Ehemmm..Mr.Man, mungkin kita (awak) perlu mempunyai/membeli camera juga? >_<

After that we head straight to Dome for coffee and some snacks, sambil meng-review all the pics and the videos of his debut performance itu. Festive betul The Curve nih, as always.Never fail to amuse me. Several restaurants were celebrating Halloween.Complete with the deco of pumpkins, hantu2 gantung, spider webs and jack-o-lanterns.Macam rumah hantu.Yang meriah :D Oh and there were some workers of Tony Roma's dressing up as Freddie Kruger and that scary guy dalam Halloween tu. Sambil lari2 kejar2 takutkan orang ramai.Hahah..Best!! But I guess Halloween Celebration here wasnt as big as the ones in the west. Kids wearing costumes (scary or not) and going from house to house, trick-or-treating sambil collect candies. Or pumpkin carving macam ni?It sure looked fun!!!

Oh lupa, the piccas. Enjoysss and Happy Halloween lovelies!

happy friday? urghh..not for me!!

while other people were busy packing to rush back home, I was straining my eyes, staring at my pc, tgh terkemut2 nak siapkan kerja2. Apa citerrrrr niiiiiii?!?!? Orang lain sibuk2 nak balik.Even my super workaholic bosses have happily made their way home. Aku jugak laaaa yg terkulat2 depan pc ni haa sambil kelaparan teramat sebab sejuk gile babs skrg nii. Thank God Mr.Man was still online. I told him we were beginning to turn into dull adults. All work and no play. I told him we better make the best out of this coming weekend by doing only fun stuff and indulge in wuteva adventures that came to his mind. (His mind sebab ceq malas laa nk pk2.Ceq ikot sajaa noo..) Memang sah2 la dia tak dpt feel wht I was feeling now. Tgh in happy/nervous mode esok dpt perform in a, shall i say, mini gig? Eceeeehhh... You knw I dig rockstars. Hihihihi..(Gedikkk) He was pretty nervous actually.But happy at the same time.Nervous because tiba2 kene jadi drummer pulak. Fes time tu nak main depan audience. Mungking takde la ramai mana. But still.... If it was me, dah lama lari nyorok blakang langsir. Ok experience masa main Rockband berjam2 totally tak kire hokeh. Mr.Man is actually a guitarist.He plays the guitar. Ok I wanted to bagi pujian berbakul2 to him for being good at slammin' on his guitar and all.Tapi karang korang muak pulakkk. But I think he is good at what he's doing lah. Ok compliments end here. Anywayssss...He was starting to take interest in drums recently. Did I actually inspire you Mr.Man? (referring to baaaaack in the old days when I could play the drums.Tapi sekarang all the skills have gone rusty. T_T) Hahahaha.. Dah nak start taking formal classes dah pun. I am so proud of you :D. Oh good luck tomorrow k. U nak I buat and bawak banner untuk u tak esok? Hehehehe...

i am a book person

I remember the first time I got hold of my first Sidney Sheldon's book. I was 14 at that time. It was Windmills of the Gods and I think it was my classmate's.Rina.If i remember her name correctly. I read it passionately as it was very much intriguing. Conspiracy theory, murder, political agendas, suspense and full of unexpected twists. Oh my. I just love it. From there on, Sidney Sheldon has become my favourite author. I would try to get my hands on Sidney Sheldon's every chance I got. My second novel came not long after that. Bloodline. Beli kat Macro (sekarang dah xde).I was begging my mom for it, considering it was a bit pricey at that time. Heh. I think Rina was probably the most cool, book-loving person that I've ever known. She introduced me to the great world of Sidney Sheldon. She was also one of the first ppl I know in high school, who possesed comic collection like Slam Dunk and G.T.O. And of course later on, got me hooked on all of them.She was my resource back then.Hehe. Remember Sailor Moon? Wira2 comel bersanggul menentang penjahat. I was willing to ride on my mountain bike, naik bukit, to get them from this particular medai mamak in Gombak.And oohh..Remaja Psikometer! My absolute favourite. I have every single edition in my collection.Now, they are neatly tucked in my cupboard where my little sister would read them at any opportunity that she got.Sampai dah lunyai. Last weekend, I got myself a copy of Sidney Sheldon's Master of the Game. A reprint I believe as it was being well promoted on the recommended shelf.Together with its sequel.Mistress of The Game. But of a different author, as the great Sidney Sheldon has passed away. I finished it in 3 days.Baca tanpa henti.Now I could hardly wait to buy its sequel.Though not frm the later Mr. Sheldon, but I hope it'd turn out great. Mr.Man, would you buy it for me please? Pretty please....

my love

an attempt to update

my Friday morning was peaceful and serene. Mana taknya. Everybody went off for a meeting. I could do my work leisurely at my own pace. Tralalalala... But, at approximately 11.45, the serenity might wear off because of the proejct update meeting. Benci. This would also cause a slight delay of my lunch date with my girlfriends. Benci tauuuu. Ape cerite nak drag2 meeting sampai ke lunch time kan? Pergila masjid awal sket semayang jumaat. I dont know lah..I always wanted my Fridays to be happy since they are the ultimate kick-off to the weekends.But unfortunately, lotsa uneventful things happened on my favourite day.

weekend rendezvous

Friday
Its a helluva Friday! The time I usually get ready for work, I was still soundly sleeping. The time I was usually in my car driving to work, yawning & fighting to stay awake on the road, I was still..well..sleeping.Teheee..The time I was usually at the office already, turning on my pc and start checking my emails, I was waking up lazily....To flaky roti canai and maggi goreng, mamak style. Ah what a bliss. The privilege to not do anything, just being a lazy-bum all day long was priceless. I think the only hard labour that I did on that day was tidying up my own bed :p (and start updating this blog back).. Oh andddd.. a mini reunion/BBQ at Bob's (under the starry2 light) later that evening totally wrapped up my Friday. Met with some of my dear STF friends, did some catching up, reminiscing the good old days or rather; gossiping like there was not gonna be tomorrow. Seriously, memang tak cukup masa and tak puas okk. We should do this again.

Saturday

Waking up lazily, still :). As what has been happening the past several weekends, it was makan2 time again at open houses, weddings and more open houses. The agenda that day was to go to Mr.Man's high school friend's wedding, an engagement cum open house of a friend (also, a high school friend of Mr.Man) and finaally...To have dinner, somewhere special where we've never been to. The engagement thingy was really fun. Ok I know most people would have described ceremonies like this as sweet and romantic and all things pretty. Oh maybe we only got there a bit later for the makan2 thingy and didnt have the chance to see the whole process of engagement.But seriously...It was loads of fun. Gile la rakan2 Mr.Man. In a good way of course. Heh..The bride-to-be looked stunning :).I loooove the photo-taking session.So meriah. And funny.

Thank God it's Friday!!!!!

It's my favourite day of the week and it's a day off! It has been a while since I had a happy Friday.Usually my Fridays were filled with stressful project update meetings , people(or rather; this particular somebody) who'd come up to my cubicle and drove me crazy till I had no time to finish up my work and I ended up bringing back home my work for the weekend.

Today started off well. I forced my mom to teman me have breakfast, mamak-style. I ordered 2 roti canai garing, and 1 of them, banjir for my mom. Sekali tu mamak tu pegi banjir kan dua2. Well, had no choice but to fonish them all up. By the time we finished, I saw a lot of families there, most of them with their kids. Cuti sekolah kan. Lucky buggers. I remember when I was their age, my mom wouldnt let me have roti canai for breakfast.Unhealthy, katanya. Breakfast was always milk and bread with jam. Or hot milo. Jgn harap dpt roti canai2 ni. Weekend pun, my mom would cook breakfast for us. "Lagi bersih, makan kat luar tu kotor tau tak.Mak nak anak2 makan benda2 yg elok".. That was her answer when I kept bugging her to let me have roti canai or mintak duit belanje sekolah lebih sket because I wanted to have that nasi lauk ayam merah kat kantin sekolah. My school canteen had 2 type of food price.One was the cheap nasi lemak, mee goreng or nasik goreng which cost around 50cents-70cents kooott.Didnt really remember.The type that school kids woulld normally buy.The other type was at the higher end.Hehe.. Around singgit lebih or 2 hinggit kot. Kire mahal la time tu for a primary school kid. I remebered bringing my bekal almost everyday to school. Pastu bila nak makan time recess, segan2 sebab rasa tak cool lah makan bekal kan.Orang lain beli je.Hehehe.. But I guess what my mom said is true. The habit of bawak bekal still remains until now. Funny thing is, sometimes I could easily get diarrhea if I eat out, at places yg ala2 x menjaga kebersihan sgt. Seriously. My stomach must have get used to home-cooking I guess.

As tomorrow is Deepavali, Auntie Malar, my indian neighbour invited the whole family to her makan2 thingy tomorrow. Yeay! I just looooove this festive season.Good food is easily accesible :) I'll be going to Bob's bbq-mini-reunion tonight. Cant hardly wait. I know I'll be seeing a lot my high school friends whom I havent seen for ages. Rinddduuuuuu!!

See you lovelies tonight!

The resurrection

It is hard to resume a hobby once it has been long neglected. Like blogging. Hello, my dear blog. But i promise myself to start back on writing, as i do miss it. i miss venting out. I miss letting out all of my feelings and emotions. just to express all of them out there, baring it all, give some kinda satisfaction to me. Working life does consume a LOT of my time and energy. It sucks up all the fun in my life and if i dont start doing something about it now, I'll be dull and soon vanish into thin air. But this is a start. Will post up a complete entry tomorrow. Watch this space.

Pantas dan Garang 4

The rule is when watching this type of movie, we have to set our minds not to focus much on the storyline/plot, the dialogues or even the acting. Movies like this were made to blow our minds away with their high-octane action scenes. The modified cars roaring at unbelievingly high speed and smashing into things that stand their way. The massive explosions. The drivers maintaining their calmness despite the chaos (gila ah..lagi few inches je nak crash into the lori tangki minyak yg tgh terbakar. Tapi muka maintain ketat.Heh). All these were pure adrenaline. I love love love it. Despite the acting & plot, this movie is much better than the 2nd & 3rd one. Especially the 3rd. That Tokyo Drift movie. Urgh. What were they thinking, having a Texan-accent-speaking lead character? No offend against the Texan accent. It’s just that it didn’t go well with the character who drove fast cars, participated in illegal drag-racing, involved in Yakuza and then later on, stole the Yakuza’s Leader’s hot girlfriend. I jst didn’t get it. Like, sgt tak melambangkan the rogue elements in that character. Oh well, at least audience could enjoy the view of numerous number of hot & skimpy-clad Japanese girls. Anyhow, back to my POV on Pantas & Garang 4. Vin Diesel is Vin Diesel lah kan. With that botak & tight-fitting white t-shirt image. Yummy. But I wish he could show more emotions & and was given more lines. Oklah maybe the plot is like that. I like the part where he was describing Letty played by Michelle Rodriguez (his dead but hot gf) to that hot but too-skinny right-woman of that drug cartel.

Vin Diesel: It starts with the eyes. She's gotta have those kind of eyes that can look right through the bullshit, to the good in someone. 20% angel, 80% devil. Down to earth. Ain't afraid to get a little engine grease under her fingernails.

The girl: That doesn't sound anything like me.

Vin Diesel: It ain't.

Aahhh… a baddie, but with a soft heart when it comes to the woman that he loves so much. *cair*

And Michelle Rodriguez is one hot woman!!! She still looks hot even in the scenes involving the bone-breaking stunts. And owh I just found out that the girl of the drug cartel is actually a former Ms.Israel. oh patutla. Exotic but still, too skinny.

I watched this with Mr.Man and we both agreed that this sequel is better than Tokyo Drift. Seriously, the crash, the explosions and all the stunts memang heart-stopping. Go watch this if you need something to pump up your heart and especially if you’re an adrenaline junkie like me.

i saw lotsa fish and i like it
