Christian The Lion

The Power of Love.



To make a long story short, Anthony "Ace" Bourke and John Rendall, two Australians living in the hip Chelsea section of London in 1969 bought and raised a 35 lbs lion cub from a department store, which they named Christian, in their living room. They became local celebrities of sorts, parading around London with him, taking him to restaurants and even playing soccer with him.

But as the 35-pound cub grew to 185 pounds and food bills became astronomical, they knew he would have to be released to a less urban habitat. So they arranged to take him to a wildlife refuge in Kenya. They visited him periodically for several years.

After going without seeing their old friend for several months, they were told he had adapted to his new environment, and the two returned to say goodbye. That's when the famed reunion took place.

Watch Christian The Lion here because I'm having some trouble posting the video up here. watch it, I promised you wont regret any of your time. It gets me everytime i watched the video. I know you will too.

ps: i cried my arse off, there i said it. hmphh.

speaking of which, i realllly miss izzati. i don't know she's graduating. what kind of bff am I? haih.

beautiful ads

can these advertisement get any prettierrrrr?


the first time i set my eyes at these ads, I knew I am in love.

the Miss Cherie Dior Perfume ad was directed by the uber genius, Sofia Coppola, the same person who directed Marie Antoinette. the ad was set in Paris (who doesn't love Paris?) and it got all the very things that I lived for. the ad got me so baddd, with the pretty flowers, the balloons, all of the surroundings and the cute pastriesss. I need to be in the ad. I just got to.

the second ad, is the Elizabeth Arden new perfume, Pretty. the ad was just a simple girl-watching-herself-in-the-mirror ad, but the whole dramatic flower mural on the wall that makes it remarkably fascinating, eye catching and lively. the ad was directed by Mark Dixon. you got some taste here, Mark! hehe

I know these ads will blow ur mind away. if they didn't, I dont know what will.

Miss Cherie Dior

Elizabeth Arden - Pretty

ps:
i was proposing the whole dramatic flower wallpaper for our room to my sister, and she said it'll be too crowded for our oh-so-small room, and i knowww she got a point there but a girl can dream right?

pps:
and the dream is to have a BIGGER room! oh please, please please please!

GOOD LORD, im homeee

so i finished watching 6 movies, already. in 2 days. yay. first, bride wars, then major movie star, yes man, get smart, inkheart (u should see this!) . and im lovin every bit of it. they all were great movie, MADE MY DAY punye kind. hehe ok, i have a confession to make, i've just watched SATC the movie. thats sex and the city for those who dont know. i know, I'm pathetic and all cos it took me t h i s long to finally watched it, when everybody's had watched it like decades ago. excuse me for that.

im in love with the movie, not just for the fashion (duhh) but i love how Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda were there for each other, ALLLL the time, thru thick and thin. i dont know abt you guys, but im practically a loner and yes i enjoy being all by myself for most of the time, but i kinda envy with the relationship they had. i want that too. its like, when the gloomy days punched in, you know you'll always have them with you. no matter what. and you did almost everything together. and you hears your friends thought not because you have to, but because you wanted to.

i needed that.

so, its a good movie, you have my two thumbs up.

i cant wait to see the confessions of a shopaholic. ttyl

the day I fell in love.

Michael Cera, need I say more?
YOU are all I ask for a guy, pretty please?

ps: watch Juno & Nick and Norah Infinite Playlist, then you know.

A LONG WEEK

Alhamdulillah, the event went really well. apart from all the misunderstandings along the way, we did got credits from the lecturers for the job well done, our seniors liked it and we felt the loveee from the people from other courses too, i felt ittt. hahaha they showed up filling all the foyers' floor, the first, second and third floor. and that, i must say, is quite an achievement. hee

the morning event was hectic, i couldnt get my hands on that nasi lemak or any food that matter, but they all love the games i chose for that day and to see all the happy faces from the people, i couldnt be more happier. i made some nasty 'bombs', (was planning to induct the part ones) but plan backfired, they give excuses to leave early and i was the one who ended up wet with the disgusting smell bombs i made myself. sheesh. nvm.

the evening event was okayy, but im actually so very prouddd of myself( i have to say ittt) because i handled the games allllll by myself. how can i juggle 3 things at one time? the jumble sale, the tribal mask design and the tribal statue carving? oh i cannn, hahahahahaha berlagak la sikit ni. im a tad disappointed with my crews, they all seem to disappear on the evening activities. but, what the heckkk, the games went smooth sailing btw. DONT MEAN TO BRAG OKAYY, just so we clear here.

okay, the peak of the event, the ID NIGHT was the busiest time of my life, im the stage manager (the job sounds very important kan? but biasa2 jee) so i have to run here and there preparing all the performers, making sure they goes in and out the stage accordingly. but i freakin loveeed it, cos i get to mingle with all the performers, which were so very cool and very funny if u ask me.

also, the part 5 which went to their internship this semester did came down to Seri Iskandar to support us, oh they're just the sweetest thing. they love love love the stage (thanks to the design crews, logistics, M&E and our dear Project Manager, Rahmat). i dont knoww why, but im loving all my seniors this semester because they're superrrr cool and seem to be very supportive in everything that we did. oh loveeeee!

and the part one and part two students did get inducted by the part six in front of everybody after all, haha, fun moment. the sixers got them all wet with water and MY stinking bombs! yay part six! hehe. but the idea to induct the part one and part two at the night event was NOT my plan, i know nothing abt it, just to make it clear here.

after that, yasmin got flour-ed by the boys because it was her birthday that night and we took our studio pictures together. its kinda saddd cos along the moving and transition of the event before, i don't get to be in most of the pictures cos i kinda stuck in the studio busy with my own things to handle. so, back in the room, i dont wait to change, i just go straightttt to bed. sumpah la penat.

gazillion thanks to all my friends, to all the people who helped me making the bombs, the other night, especially the part two girls, fatin and her friends for guarding the jumble sale booth at all time and special thanks to THE FAMILY for supporting me along the way. i cant possibly get through all this without all your help and prays.

u guys rocks my socks!

May Allah bless you always and rest in peace.

Al Fatihah.

still look pretty dash to me

apart from all the grudges we had before,

if you have to know, i love you like
the field of flowers i never had,

haha, takk laa, more than that okayyy.

but please please please, control your smoking ayah.

i know its quite impossible for me to
ask for you to quit smoking right away,

but please ayah, for us? pretty please?


we all love you dearly, from the very bottom of our heart.
have a lovely birthday.

lets grow old together

this is one of the many things that i dreamed of. im a dreamer, i've told you kan? anywhoo, today when kak ain came to my room because she gotta shelter here since its like a raining blizzard outside. so, she wanted my opinion on her layout plan themed Venice since she and puan lina have different views on how her venice restaurant should look like.

as we went searching more about venice images, lalalala... and idk how, we begin searching for these pictures. little do i know, kak ain's interest is soooo similar like mine. we both LOVE old folks. hehe. im sure after looking at these pictures, you'll be dreaming just about the same, and you'll know what im going through by looking at these pictures. emotional? memang sangattt kot. haha

OLD AND IN LOVE

lying on the beach is a must for me.
what a great way to fill your old days.

this guy looks so garang but yet very
cute when he holds on to her woman.

and vacation is still a must-haves
even when you're old. ahhh.

alahaiii...

i dont know what about old people that i love so
much. maybe the grey hair? or maybe
they're just so cute in whatever they do? idk.

this one run around together
holding hands pulak, alahaiii.

dont you think this is the sweetest things?
going stroll together, HOLDING HANDS,
eat ice-cream pulak lagiiii? sumpah comel.

MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE?

oh so cuteeee!

young couples in love are sweet but when you're old and grey, but your love is still going strong and strong day by day, that's just amazing, sweet and at the same time, VERY CUTE!

oh how i wish i'll get one like this who'll love me tenderly and stay hopelessly devoted to each other till the end of our lives.
