KIds Say the Darndest Things

My sis is 8 years old. Next year she will be in Standard 3. For most kids at her age, all they know are watch cartoons or play with their toys. My sister is different from the rest of them.

At the age of 8, she:
~ Knows how to go online and play online games, which is about Barbie most of the time.
~ Knows how to use bombastic English words when she's talking to me, or in her case, when retorting whenever she's being teased/bullied.
E.g : "How dare you", "Dont give up"
Seriously, how many 8-year-old kids knows how to say those sentences?
~ Plays with dogs and is not afraid of them. [I'm not sure bout other kids but I dun think 8-year-old kids even dare to go near dogs.]
~ Loves to read storybooks. Once when she's reading out loud to my mum, she could pronounce the word "dungeon", to my mum's enormous surprise. When asked whether she knows the meaning to the word, she said yes and proceeded to tell the meaning.[which I have forgotten what she said.]
~ Has an MSN account which I created for her a few weeks ago and she happily added my cousin sisters and she talks to me when I am busy, which irritates me at times.
~ Knows how to access here through the link I gave her in MSN

She read through my blog and she came across this post. This is what she has to say :

Jen Nee says (6:07 PM):
u said at the blog take a look at two guys. Don"t they look a teensy-weensy bit similar? *drool* THEY ARE NOT CUTE OK

I almost got a heart attack!! I mean seriously. Never did I expected her to reply me in such a manner. I clutched my chest and gasped for air because of the shock. If I have been sitting on a chair, I would have fallen off it, but no, I was sitting on the floor. After that, I started laughing and I even pasted that part for my brother to read, which I think he laughed his ass off.
Till now, I still could not believe it. *shakes head*

And her name is Yim Jen Nee.

Tragedies

Been following the news lately and read about the tragedies that happened. Coincidentally, today is the 15th anniversary of the day where Block One of Highland Towers collapsed in 1993, killing 48 people in total. Now, a similar tragedy happened in Bukit Antarabangsa.

I feel kinda sad when tragedies occur and lives are claimed.

When oh when would the developers pay more attention to the safety of the residents on a hillside during construction instead of thinking of making as much profit as possible?

I was in Midvalley on Sunday since it was quite boring in the apartment and due to the many numbers of public holidays this month. So a friend and I decided to do some CNY shopping. The mall was crowded with people doing their Christmas/CNY shopping in one shot. The only place I was longing to get to was the MPH. I was planning to get the set of Twilight books. Since I could not find them anywhere in the huge bookstore [also a bit lazy to look around for it =p], the best way was to go to the Enquiry Desk and ask for its location. The response I got was:

Twilight? Sudah habis

Oh my goodness! T.T Guess have to wait for the excitement of the Twilight movie to die down and then try getting my hands on the books. :D

On another note, gonna be busy for two days. I hope to have the strength to endure all the setbacks and unexpected twist of events. Also, I hope things will go well and end well.
