Panache

How do you pronounce Panache?

“My colleague used to work in Panache” – me
*I stupidly pronounce it as pa – na – ce*
“It’s Panache” – Mocha
*He corrected me by saying pe-nesh*
“What????”
”Pe-nesh~”
“Pa-natch?”
“Pe-nesh!”
”Pa-nesh”
“Pe-nesh!!!!”
*But at this moment, due to the crowd around, I heard pla-nesh*
“Pla-nesh??????”
“It’s PE-NESHHHHH……….. (……) What’s wrong with you~~~~”
“OOOoooOoooO!!! Pronounce as PE-NESH… cakap lah subuh-subuh”
“…………….”

80th Annual Academy Award

Aww... I know you know that the rest of the world knows that today is the 80^th Annual Academy Award. You all know by now who win and who did not. Some of you watched it on the television while I am stuck in this office dancing around like mad lady. Gagagagaga!

Congratulations to Ratatouille & Sweeney Todd team!!! Oh.. to Bourne Ultimatum too… am not really excited for Bourne coz when I watched with Melissa last time, I was feeling freaking freezing cold, tired, and dozed of few times. Gagagagagga!

For the red carpet fashion parade, as much as I adore Nicole Kidman’s classiness, her bling-bling necklace is a bit too OTT (Over-The-Top); And surprisingly Keith Urban looks like Tom Cruise in one angle. Sama rupa.. sama pendek. Sedeyy~

But if there’s one thing for sure, I love the off-shoulder dresses for this year (from the upper waist only). Just look at the round thingy on Katherine Heigl shoulder, the flowers on Anne Hathaway and the classic black flower design on Hilary Swank.

I love seeing Jennifer Garner again. I totally missed the 5^th season of ALIAS. T-T But whatever it is, the best dress that I’ve seen her in so far (which I really-really like) is definitely during the 76^th Academy Award. The dress really accentuate her well-toned figure. Envy~~~

Now I hate myself for not buying the black off-shoulder dress I saw back in Perth! Grrrrr!

Oh! Anyways.. there’s my Johnny Depp, and Cici’s hubby.

Hehehehe.... I also adore Lisa Rinna’s hair style and hair colour

Hrmm… I swear I hear mocha saying “NoOoOOooOo!!!!!!”

Hahahahahahahah!

Oh-Oh!!! Just look at Kristin Chenoweth sexy back! Yummy~

Like any other awards, there must be few who dressed.. ermm… wrongly. Well, I am not in the right position to give comments. But oh well, these are those which are kinda odd.

First, Tilda Swinton looks like a red-haired Ju On. And what’s up with the hand on the shoulder? I bet tomorrow’s news will be, - “Tilda Swinton caught singing an old Chinese patriotic song, - Chi… Chiloy Chiloy Chiloy!” - Tralalalala.

Next is Jennifer Hudson. This dress makes her boobs look
bigger and widerrrrrr!!!!

And this… well… no complains actually… the dress is a-ok
on Adrienne Frantz… but she looks like an escaped mermaid.

And what's with THIS???!!!!! I feel like stepping on it!

Anne Jeffreys

Aaa well. That’s it for this year!

Better luck for nice dresses next year!

The HEATis ON!


I’ve been complaining to mocha about me getting chubby-er.

So being someone who sayang me, he made a good deal.

“Like this la sayang. I’ll go to the gym”, he said
“Uh-huh.. uh-huh….”
“I’ll pump up my arms, and shape my body like your preferences”
“Uh-huh… uh-huh…”
“You just control your diet.. and kecilkan kaki”
“Hek?......”
“Deal?”
“Ermm……. Ermmm……”

*Think Faranina think! It’s a win-win situation AND a bonus. You’ll lose weight, have a nice leg, can wear skirt, and get a hunky hunk*

“Ermmm…… OK SET!!!”
“Betul?”
“When’s the deadline?”
“May”
“Why May?”
“You want earlier? Then April it is”
“Harloowww husband! You think I’m a machine aaa?
If like that one, I’d be skinny by now u know???”
“Okokok… May it is”

The deal is Set!!! And the Challenge is ON!!!

You’re going down buddy!

Ps: just so u know, i want a v-shape, not big arm, skinny-leg-hobbit shape... tralalalala

Haru’s bedtime story

I got this article from Marissa on: She Says vs. He Says: Do Girls Really Like Dating Jerks? Read it! And you can thank me later Baca baaaaaaah!!! ******************************************************************************* Once upon a time, there was a girl with a chubby cheek, named Aya, who dated a ‘hero’ named ‘jerk’. *A professional one I must add* She was seduced by his confidence, charm and passion and as much as he might want to deny it now, he IS taking whatever-we-have as light & fun. Call her despo if you want, but if you don’t know what has been happening, don’t run around like a headless nick and assume that you know everything. Coz Aya never told anyone what actually happened (except the good & sweet stuff) aside to her anata Mars & her baby-sis Nadia. “we play mind games with ourselves. We use our normally rational inner voice to convince ourselves that we can tame him or that with the right kind of girlfriend he will lose his jerk armor and transform into a leading man fit for a romantic comedy. Come on ladies, what are we thinking?!” - She Says vs. He Says: Do Girls Really Like Dating Jerks? This quote is so true. Especially the fact that Aya is a very optimistic & understanding person, she completely ignored her fellow companions’ advice / warning. “He is just not for you" You KNOW you WILL be left heartbroken”, as what Sir Arthur said “….hhmmmmmm”, as what Lady Marissa trying to hint “bongoknya…. Oh my”, as what Princess Nadia tried her best to be a supportive sister. As how Aya fully aware of how the situation has become, she STILL thinks that he is not a jerk. He is sweet. He adores & love kids. He loves cooking. He’s outgoing. He’s not opportunist. He’s considerate & hardworking. He’s good in sport. Loves to travel. A family man. Has great personality. Has a broad shoulder. ABC look. …and the list goes on and on and on and on…. Too good to be true, ey? God IS fare. Coz he sucks in one thing: He sucks in relationship & commitment But, “A jerk loves being a jerk -- way more than he loves u”….. Then Ok lo. He is definitely a “learning experience”. He taught Aya how to become calm, patient and to love and respect herself. This chubby cheek girl realised that whenever he cancelled out on her, the venue that she’s at, at that particular moment is where mocha was at too. She just never realised his presence. Mocha & Aya collided in so many ways, and after they learned their life lessons, they finally met at a convention and were certain of their feelings for each other on New Year 2008. For the first time in her life, Aya believes she made the right choice. And for the first time indeed, she had never been happier and blissful to the point that if the word ‘I told you so’ is being shove to her face if her decision might not be as what she dreamt of. Advices are welcome with open arm, but assurance is no longer in Aya’s dictionary. And now, their journey is just a beginning. … to be continued. *************************************************************** Haru: hahhhhhhhhh???? Story belum habis?????? Aya: Belum~~~ Sabar bahhhh!!! Haru: Ceh! Mendokusei na~~~ *continue to sleep* Aya: Ekkk~~~ Marah~~~

Puffy face

“Bye Papa”
*kiss on the cheek, 2 of each side*
“Hmmm… dah ‘agem’? – papa
(“A-gem” is the term papa used for chubby)
“APAAAA????”
*Signaling 'your cheek looks chubbier'*
“Are you serious?”
- Papa

Panic button: *with the transformer sound*
