beauty and the not-so beast

Hi semua gorgeous people! (........dan kepada yang tak gorgeous~)

Ehs please, jangan terasa. Gorgeous ke tak gorgeous, patut bersyukur sebab still cukup sifat. Ada dua mata, satu hidung, satu mulut, dua telinga, satu kepala, satu badan, dua kaki, dua tangan...

Ok, ape kejadah nak tulis in BM lagi hari ni? Alaa.. kamon laa.. bosan jugak tulis in BI. Apa kata hari ni campur aduk & tulis style santai sikit. Sebab hari ni Sabtu, so kena relax santai2 laa, ye tak?

Topik hari ni pasal cantik, gorgeous, pretty, lawa, comel & sewaktu dengannya. Bak kata Matluthfi (korang cek dia kat YouTube, video lawak2.. ntah naper tak masuk Raja Lawak), cantik ni word yang subjektif. Iye laa, how kita nak tentukan seseorang itu cantik? Kengkadang budak A kata budak C lawa, tapi budak B tengok budak C tu biasaaa je. Jadi, lain pandangan orang, lain lah persepsi mereka.

Tapi pentingkah jadi cantik ni?

Kalau jawapan RC (RunwayCat), "penting".

Nowadays, antara pengaruh yang paling tegar dan masih bertahan is TV, ehs yang kotak segiempat ada tayang macam2 cerita, show, dan ada macam2 channel... macam2 adaa... Disebabkan TV ni la kita terpengaruh dengan orang2 yang cantik lawa ni. Pelakon utama lelaki/perempuan biasanya yang cantik2 hensem2.. pembaca berita lelaki/perempuan pun tak kurang jugak cantik2 hensem2.. dalam iklan pun biasanya lelaki/perempuan yang cantik2 hensem2. Kalau tak cantik2 hensem2 tertarik ke korang nak tengok? Nak ke korang jadi peminat tegar mereka? Haaa.. itu lah taktik mereka nak tarik penonton. Tapi tak semestinya kalau cantik2 hensem2 tu pandai berlakon & mengacara kan? Maka, korang dah tak minat lagi dah minah/mamat yang cantik2 hensem2 tu lagiii.......

Bukan niat RC nak jadi stereotype or racist (dari segi rupa) or nak kondem yang tak cantik2 ni. My point is..... kecantikan itu penting sebagai 1st impression. Betul tak? Contoh: 1st time korang tengok Lisa Surihani masa iklan compact powder tu kan? Mesti respon korang "Ehs comel jugak minah ni". Terus korang minat kat dia. Sedangkan iklan tu ntah seminit je kot. Tapi sebab 1st impression korang Lisa Surihani tu comel maka korang tanam minat until laa korang tengok dia 1st berlakon dalam, urmm, movie apa eyh (google jap). Aaa cita "I'm Not Single".. korang cam eksaited "Ehs minah comel ni laa. Makin lawa makin cantik..".. Tapi bila tengok dia berlakon cam stiff sikit, sebab baru lagi masa tu. Still, korang tetap minat dia sebab dia cantik, biarlah berlakon stiff ke apa ke, sebab part berlakon tu leh perbaiki next time.

Haaa.. that's the power of beauty....

Tapi bagi yang tak berapa nak cantik ni camna??

Cantik ni kan subjektif kan.. kan?? Kalau, ye, kalau lah korang rasa korang bukan kategori cantik wow-wow tervavoom gitu, jangan terus frust. Nak buat plastic surgery? (macam kat Korea kan..) Alaa kang nanti hairan la pulak orang tengok tiba2 muka lain gila (macam ada penyanyi lama yang muncul kembali tu kan..) jadi kontroversi kang.. Takyah buat plastic surgery. Korang ubah penampilan. Walaupun tak jadi semakin cantik, tapi at least sedap mata memandang, ye tak? Bagi yang free hair tu, set kan rambut biar kemas dan lawa sikit. Bagi yang berhijab, tengok tutorial Hana Tajima nak lilit tudung cara lagi lawa. Bagi lelaki, senang je, pakai baju kemas2, rambut jangan selekeh. Kalau nak tiru style Korea/Japan biarlah memadai dengan penampilan ye.

Tapi cantik sahaja tak penting. Personality & perangai & attitude kena cun. If cantik + attitude superb = perfect. Kan? Between cantik & attitude superb, yang lagi penting is attitude. Sebab, kurang cantik + attitude superb = still perfect.

Ok just my 2 cents & honest opinion, takdak bias towards kategori mana2.

hope and destiny

Selamat berjumpa kalian yang tak tidur dari semalam.

Kita dalam bot yang sama (translate: we're in the same boat).

Saya pun tak tidur semalam sebab leka membuat kerja yang perlu dihantar hari ni.

Maka, malam ini seronok dapat tidur sepuas hati sampai lebam esok pagi.

Kenapa hari ni nak pakai Bahasa Melayu tulis entri?

Sebab tiba2 rasa patriotik..

dan sebab rindu nak mengarang esei dalam SPM lagi.

Dalam erti kata lain, rindu zaman sekolah dulu2.

Bercakap pasal masa sekolah dulu2,

sekolah rendah, sekolah menengah,

pernah tak menulis karangan pasal "Cita2 saya bila dah besar nanti"

Mesti semua pernah kan?

Anda tulis apa sebagai cita2 anda?

Dan bila dah besar tercapai tak cita2 tu?

Masa saya sekolah rendah dulu, sangat lurus bendul.

Bila kena buat esei pasal cita2 saya akan tanya kawan kiri kanan apa cita2 mereka.

Padahal kena buat karangan pasal cita2 sendiri.

Buat apa nak tiru kawan.

Tapi niat bukan nak tiru..

cuma masih tak pasti apa cita2 sendiri dan apa akan jadi di masa hadapan.

Maka, kawan2 bagi macam2 cadangan.

Jadi peguam laa, cikgu laa, polis laa, penyanyi laa, pelakon laa, angkasawan laa, dan macam2.

Tapi cita2 yang paling glamer adalah "doktor".

Boleh tanya kat siapa2 apa mereka letak sebagai cita2 dan pasti 80% letak doktor.

Jadi doktor sangat cool masa zaman saya dulu2.

Dah besar ni baru sedar susah gila nak jadi doktor dan takda laa cool sangat sebab keja 24 jam 7 hari dan bila masa cuti kena panggil buat keja lebih masa *pengsan*..

Budak2 yang nakal siap letak jadi Superman laa, Power Rangers laa, Doraemon..... erk??

Bila dah masuk sekolah menengah macam dah boleh fikir logik.

Maka cita2 pun dah berubah dan lebih spesifik.

Yela, dulu letak doktor tapi tak spesifik sebab doktor ni banyak bidang..

doktor gigi, pakar bedah, pakar jantung, dan macam2.

Saya masa sekolah menengah pun kena buat karangan pasal cita2.

Masa ni pun masih tak tahu nak buat kerja apa, nak jadi apa.

Taknak letak sebagai cikgu sebab susah gila kerja nak mengajar budak2 sebab lihat laa contoh cikgu di sekolah yang mengajar kami yang banyak ragam.

Hari2 pening.. hari2 mengeluh..

Lagi satu, masa tu fikir kerja cikgu tak cool sebab takkan lepas habis sekolah dan bila dapat kerja kena masuk sekolah balik.

Maka, saya cuba fikirkan pekerjaan yang cool yang tempat kerja nya jugak cool.

Juruterbang!

Tempat kerja atas awan tuu.. pastu boleh melancong.. pergi dalam negara, luar negara..

Memang cool habiss!

Saya memang tetapkan pendirian nak jadi juruterbang sebab best gila dapat kerja macam tu.

Bila habis sekolah, result SPM pun bagus, bermula lah misi memilih Uni.

Nak memilih Uni dan bidang sama seperti memilih pekerjaan sekaligus menentukan masa hadapan.

Niat nak belajar supaya dapat jadi juruterbang.

Tapi malangnya, kedua ibu bapa berkeras suruh ambil bidang teknologi maklumat sebab masa tu gila glamer IT.

Zaman milenium la kata kan.

Saya anak mithali maka turut saja.

Lagipun ibu bapa yang bayarkan yuran.

Habis pengajian saya dapat kerja di bidang teknologi maklumat.

Siapa sangka, saya tak pernah tulis cita2 dalam apa2 bidang IT.

Tapi adakah saya meminati nya?

Terus terang saya katakan saya kurang meminati bidang ini.

Tapi dah dapat kerja nak buat macam mana kan? Rezeki jugak..

Anda boleh tanya kat siapa2 pekerjaan mereka sekarang ni adakah berdasarkan minat?

Saya pasti ramai yang akan menjawab "tidak".

Hanya kerja untuk membayar bil2.

Cuma segelintir yang saya kenal yang bekerja ikut minat mereka..

macam jurugambar, pereka fesyen, pereka dalaman rumah..

Untung mereka kan?

Sebab kalau minat, boleh tumpukan perhatian seluruh jiwa raga kat pekerjaan kita.

Tapi saya tak menyesal dengan apa yang saya ada sekarang.

Fikir positif.

Ini rezeki saya.

Dan di sebalik pekerjaan saya yang kurang saya minati, ada kelebihan nya berbanding kerja2 lain yang saya idamkan.

Maka, sebab itulah saya masih bertahan.

Dan sudah pastinya untuk jangkamasa yang panjang.

Ini takdir saya........ kot~

p/s: antara harapan dan takdir. mana satu yang anda pilih?

disaster strikes

Greetings fellow unidentified non-flying people..

I know I have been silent for quite some time.

You've heard about the earthquake & tsunami that hit Japan recently right?

Well, that's what kept me busy lately.

Went to Japan together with the rescue team & help them with food supplies, counselling, and etc.

(ok.. that's not true..)

I didn't go to Japan (although I want to.. to help of course)

But got no chance one.

I'm not active like that to join rescue team or volunteer team or etc.

Well..

Many had said that Japan was well prepared for the disasters

but still.. there are some casualties and death.

You can treat casualties

but death... can't treat that.. can't undo that..

My pray goes to them.

You know what's more sad?

Some people find this matter is amusing and laughable to them

Example?

Bharian made caricature jokes about Ultraman

Fizz Fairuz (actor) made jokes bout Ultraman also, and Power Rangers & Doraemon

Rosmah's distasteful comments about Japan's disaster

Come on laa people..

Can't you be more sensitive & have heart like real human?

And some more..

don't you ever think that those people affected are not only the Japanese, but also the students from our country?

What would their families think when they read the newspaper, to think that they can get some updates, but instead they are served with the non-humorous caricature, while they are worried sick of their son/daughter/etc in Japan

Haishh...

Come on laa.. have you no common sense?

life is a comic #2

Come on guys! Get your words RIGHT!

Don't lie.

Don't give false promises.

Don't lie.

Don't lie.

If you wanna quit, then it's better to quit earlier rather than later.

So that your ex-girlfriend still have her youth & can find someone else who can REALLY commit.

life is a comic #1

This is what I doodled yesterday...

I slept late the other night, doing what I do best -- playing games writing thesis...

.... and the next morning I kinda woke up earlier than I expected to.

(because I have this psychological-thinking that if one sleeps later than 3am, it is fair to wake up at least at noon the next day, disregard the total hours of sleep exceeds 7 or 8 hours)

My stomach grumbled and automatically these words came out "What to eat arr??".

Looking at the clock it's still early, and I'm still sleepy.

"Need to think, need to think......"

Hungry vs Sleepy???
"...... ouh, can't think now."

Not until a minute, I dozed off, back to ba~ba~land.....

Everyone must be thinking now -- "been there, done that". Right? Right??

So, at least I can say I'm normal....... ^_^

social complex

Have you experienced any of the situations below?

Situation #1

Girl A saw Girl B from afar and since Girl A knows Girl B, so she shouted for her name.... 

Girl A: Hi Girl B!!!! (while waving frantically)

Girl B: (looking at Girl A with a slight smile) 

Girl A: Girl B!!!! (still waving frantically) 

Girl B: (looking at Girl A but not responding) 

Girl A: Girl B...? (puzzled) 

Girl B: (turning around) 

Is Girl B annoyed by Girl A? Or Girl B is embarassed because Girl A shouted her name too loud? Or simply Girl B has malas-nak-layan attitude?

Situation #2

Girl A is in a bus heading to her college, when the bus stopped at one of the station, Girl A saw Girl B climbing into the bus. Girl A knows Girl B, and Girl A is positive that Girl B saw her too. So Girl A try to greet and initiate a conversation.... 

Girl A: (pats Girl B's shoulder) 

Girl B: (shudders and turns head towards Girl A) 

Girl A: Hi Girl B!! (smiling) 

Girl B: Ouh.... hi..... (turns head front again) 

Girl A: .....?? (thinking "that's it?") 

Still, the question is, why is Girl B acting like that? Is Girl B really an ignorant and arrogant person? Or is Girl B just too tired to entertain Girl A for any conversation?

If you ought to choose one of the person in above situations, who would you rather be?

Girl A OR Girl B?

Girl A ~ "I will be friendly towards anybody I know and greet them whenever I see them".

Girl B ~ "I will be friendly and happily greet only those that I'm really close with".

Think about it...

if the shoe fits

I don't mind if the shoe doesn't fit.

But what if the baju doesn't fit?

Or the jeans doesn't fit?

That calls for a diet.

"Diet" here means to not eat full meal at proper time to lose that extra fat.

(btw I know it's not healthy to do that, but that's just the easiest way to do it)

But luckily now everything seems to fit just nice.

Only that, the other day I found a jeans.

It kinda fit perfectly at my waist and hip but not at my lower legs.

Not proportionate much?

Nah..

Btw I bought that jeans.

Who knows I can lose some mm at my lower legs.

Untill today I still haven't wear the jeans.

Maybe tomorrow I will.

But tonite I'm eating Big Mac and Mc Chicken burger.

T3T

Alright then.

Its a challenge!

Tomorrow I'll wear the jeans and will look good in it.

Wanna try it now~

updated:

Guess what?

It fits just perfectly!

So no need for diet ^_^

adieu~

creative or not?

I hadn't done laundry for 1 week already. Can't give "Oh I'm too busy" reason, coz I am not busy at all. My time is equally spent for movie-marathon on my lappie and normal routine eat-sleep-bath-nap. And NO, I'm not one fat-lazy-couch-potato. Just that, these past few days been a bit under the weather and so better just lazying around until I'm ok.

Yesterday I was feeling better. So I did laundry. And the best part is the dryer is not working AND the clothlines are all full with other people's wet clothes. I thought for a moment, while observing my room, then...... *tink* "idea!"

In my room, there's an empty 2-door high cabinet and each door has some sort like metal thingy to hang stuff. What I planned is to open the cabinet and find something to hold the doors open and tie something onto the metal thingy on both doors so that I can make my own indoor clothline. Smart!

I found a shoe rack that can hold the doors open. But something as clothline? My first try is using a sellotape. Ok, bijak! No tali or kain panjang or whatsoever. Kira macam survival series la ni. I wrap the tape triple layer so it can hold the heavy weight. The I tried hanging my clothes. O-em-gee.... lembik.... tunggu masa nak fall apart. Oh, kurang bijak!

Then I remembered I have a wire extension. Oh, this time memang bijak! So I tied the wire around the metal thingy on both sides of the doors and voila~! Menjadi! My very own indoor clothline. (just hopefully pegawai dorm tak buat checkup)....

So... creative or not? Memang boleh survive.

Adieu~

I hop these blogs

Pagi yang indah despite that I slept at 3am (sebab main game kat hp) then woke up at 715am (sebab alarm dah set "weekdays 715am"). Not my fault. It's routine's fault.

It's weird, coz I don't feel sleepy at all. Pulling a chair next to my bed and grabbing my laptop and place it on the chair, while I sit on the bed covering myself with a blanket coz, again it's weird, that this morning is quite breezy. Rain season has ended, I supposed. Didn't check with the weatherman. Everyday is hot hot hot! But last night and this morning is quite the kind of weather I prefer it to be. Breezy.

Ok, nuff with the yapping. Today wanna share a bit bout some blogs that I always read. Like, literally I will check their blogs everyday to see if there's any updates. I just read. I didn't leave any comments. Much like stalker? Nahhh.. I wouldn't label myself as a blog-stalker. But just that I like to read their posts, funny stories, useful ads posts, some bla bla blah. And whatever comments that I thought of already commented by others. So, it's better I don't spam them similar comments. ^_^

Here's the list in random order~

http://www.proudduck.com/

Blog owner: Vivy

At first I thought "wow.. she's pretty". Then as I read her blog's posts "wow.. damn funny.. nice posts.. useful.. addictive". As I read more and more and more, what I can conclude is she's one of the kind that has beauty together with brain and will. She also owns http://fashionvalet.net/.

http://www.akiraceo.com/

Blog owner: Akiraceo @ Meow

I envy this blog coz he's really good at drawing comic strips and some more, really really damn funny. And we also have one in common -- cat lovers.

http://xiaxue.blogspot.com

Blog owner: Xiaxue @ Wendy

What I can say about her is she's all out and really outspoken (in her posts) and that is what I like about her blog entries. You will either love her, or hate her (and still stalk her blog).

http://cheeserland.com/

Blog owner: Cheesie @ Ringo

I just found out that she once join Malaysian Dreamgirls, but didn't win. But whattaheck, that show is memang sangat lousy pun. She travels alot and blogged bout it. Since I can't simply go to places she travelled, so reading her entries with photos is nuff.

http://inibelogsaya.blogspot.com/

Blog owner: Hanis Zalikha @ Hamis Jalikha

She's also one of contestants for Malaysian Dreamgirls, final 2 I think, correct me if I'm wrong. Well, to be honest, I once enjoy her posts, really funny and can get useful advice too. But nowadays, she seems like losing some mojo. Her posts are not as funny as before, sometimes can be quite annoying (ehem.. sorry dear). But just my 2 cents. No hard feelings. My entries lagi laa tak best kan? (but I'm a nobody) 

http://www.fashiontoast.com/

Blog owner: Rumi Neely

Her entries are simple, I must say. Coz most of the time she just put a picture and with some description of the picture. But she'll get like hundreds of comments from her followers. Simply wow-ed me at first. She's a model. I always noticed her modelled for MNG. She's really pretty, got that exotic look.

What I can say bout all these bloggers are, they're the web's celebrity. They're famous mainly by displaying reality. Well, that's what blogging is all about right?!

Adieu!

1st post in 2011!

The 1st entry and 1st blog post in 2011..

Before I made this blog, I asked my friends for some tips..

Me: Hey girls.. I'm gonna create a blog, as my new year resolution. Since you girls have been blogging for years, how bout sharing some useful tips for me, as a newbie..

Girls: Sure!

So, here are the tips:

>> Make your blog contents interesting, useful & funny to read.

>> Once in a while OR at every post, must make sure to post some vain photos of yourself (if you are feeling pretty). Coz people like seeing pretty faces, despite reading the blog posts.

>> Be an active blogger & always keep your blog updated.

>> Be friendly with other bloggers by leaving comments on their blogs & exchange links. This way your blog can be known by some other bloggers too.

Well, I've listed only some that I can remember. There are a lot actually. But which one can be useful for me?

I might have to skip the photo posting thingy. It's not that I'm not feeling pretty at all, but just to remain anonymous. Runway Cat is just my alter ego. So no need to introduce her much.

But will try to be active and friendly.

So in here, Runway Cat will express some thoughts & opinions & tips & some tidbits of her everyday life.
