Oprah Winfrey Show's 24th Anniversary

I heard this from my sister a while ago about this flash mob done to surprise Oprah Winfrey for her 24th Anniversary on her show.

So they did this flash mob in Chicago and I swear to God this is the coolest thing ever!


Check out this video for the dance practice:




I think it is so amazing how people took initiative to go for the dance practice. But hey, I would go for the practice! It is for Oprah!



Now, see below for the actual flash mob in Chicago. It gave me goosebumps because it is SO COOL:





See this one for a clearer version but with less detail on the mob:




Ain't it cool????!!!!

Can we have a flash mob here please?

I would be almost the first one to join I tell you!

Oh, I am so in love with this song. The rhythm, lyrics and the music video is so beautiful. Who wouldn't agree that Black Eye Peas is a talented band?! They even appeared on Oprah!




I can't go any further then this

I want you so badly, it's my biggest wish



I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you

Every single day yes, I'm really missin' missin' you

And all those things we use to use to use to do

Hey girl, what's up, it use to be just me and you

I spent my time just thinkin thinkin thinkin bout you

Every single day, yes I'm really missin missin you

And all those things we use to use to use to do

Hey girl what's up, what's up, what's up, what's up



Meet me halfway, right at the boarderline

That's where I'm gonna wait, for you

I'll be lookin out, night n'day

Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further then this

I want you so bad it's my only wish



Girl, I travel round the world and even sail the seven seas

Across the universe I go to other galexies

Just tell me where you want, just tell me where you wanna to meet

I navigate myself myself to take me where you be

Cause girl I want, I, I, I want you right now

I travel uptown (town) I travel downtown

I wanna to have you around (round) like every single day

I love you alway... way



Can you meet me half way (I'll meet you halfway)

Right at the boarderline

That's where I'm gonna wait, for you

I'll be lookin out, night n'day

Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further then this

I want you so bad it's my only wish

I can't go any further then this

I want you so bad it's my only wish



Let's walk the bridge, to the other side

Just you and I (just you and I)

I will fly, I'll fly the skies, for you and I (for you and I)

I will try, until I die, for you and I, for you and I, for for you and I,

For for you and I, for for you and I, for you and I



Can you meet me half way (yup yup)

Can you meet me half way (yup yup)

Can you meet me half way (yup yup)

Can you meet me half way (yup yup)

Meet me half way, right at the boarderline

That's where I'm gonna wait, for you

I'll be lookin out, night n'day

Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further then this

I want you so bad it's my only wish

I can't go any further then this

I want you so bad it's my only wish




Hope you enjoyed the song as much as I do :)

Dizzling Dazzling

When it is raining on a Sunday, all I would think of is to laze at home with my blanket while watching TV ... a fruit platter and my love ones to keep my company would be a bonus.

To spice up the rainy days we have been experiencing in KL (oh, if you know me, I hate rainy days... I love the sun! Where are you!!!!!), Darling suggested to explore the Ampang Lookout Point. Something we have been hearing about but yet to discover for ourselves.

As we were driving up the hill at Ampang Jaya, Darling asked me to turn to my left and all I could see is the breathtaking view of KL City.


I love looking at city lights. How I wish my dream home would be overlooking this everyday?


Photo credit:

There are a few restaurants like Haven, Gasoline & Western Restaurant. I had this -____-!! feeling when I saw the name of the restaurant.

Then I had little conversations happening in my crazy head when Darling went to the toilet.




Where do you want to have dinner tonight?

Errr... Western Restaurant?

Alright, which one?

Western Restaurant.

Yalar...which one la?

That Western Restaurant laaa

I know la! There are millions of Western Restaurants in this world ok! Which one?!?!?!?!




Then Darling came back from the restaurant and interrupted this little conversation in my crazy head.

Hahahhahaa


Anyway, we settled for Western Restaurant among the three because it has the most people dining at. :P


We have a view to die for...


I think I put on a few kg again... sigh. More salad! No more carbs!!! For God's sake... sigh.


Our drinks.

Starters

Our food came quite fast despite the crowd at the restaurant tonight. No pictures because we were too hungry. Hehe.

Anyway, I was telling Darling that it would not suit JC's birthday party (we wanted to have it here) because she'll be dressed up in a really nice dress but would go back with mosquito bites! And... the environment doesn't really gell in as well. For a friends makan-makan gathering would be fine.

After our conversation, the lights went off! I thought the electricity tripped off but before I could say that to Darling, the disco lights were on (-____-) and the birthday song was playing from the speakers. HAHA



What made it funnier was that the birthday song was not only a little bit "old school" but also had like 3 languages ... even in cantonese. It was quite long. Haha


Ahhh... what a night :)


The jingle bells are ringing again... all over the malls. Oh everytime when it comes to this month of the year, I would miss my host-family in Spain so so so much :( ... like seriously.


I miss my white christmas

My Bloody Experience

It was a fairly normal weekday for a Friday. Went to the HR Department to settle some stuff which caused a major misunderstanding and had me going to the clinic for something. Not really major stuff though.

So once the misunderstanding was cleared, I made my way to the Science preparation laboratory, where the Science lecturers and lab officers are stationed at. Checked a few stuff on the University intranet.

Then, I spotted Mr Tian having the Biology practical session with his students. So, being the curious one (and busy-body), I watched the students doing their experiments through the glass panels.

But something caught my interest as I saw one big group of students gathering at the teacher's table in front. At the same time, Tian spotted me. So, he came out and we chatted for a while. He told me that the students were doing the "blood type experiment".

Then I thought "Hey... I never knew my blood type! Can you test for me?!"

I popped into the lab and observed the students for a while.


Interesting.....


I couldn't wait any longer so I asked... "can jump Q ah?"


Then...


It was my turn on the table with the science kit.

I was pretty nervous even though the officers told me that it wouldn't hurt.

So, I tried to act cool. But deep down, my heart was pumping real fast.

HAHA

In less than 5 seconds, I could see blood dripping... in tiny dots of course.


Done!


See See See!!! So to all Science people outside there who can decipher this... which blood type am I??


Yeah... I am in the Type O positive category. Hehe


Now it is confirmed that EVEN THOUGH I look different from my sisters but we have the same gene OK!

wth.


After that, as expected, I jammed all the way back to KL due to the Friday traffic.



Like what Princess Audrey would say in her blog... FML. Hehe! I love her blog! She's cute :)

Some realities are so mean.



at times it is better off not knowing ... it brings tears to your eyes and it shivers your heart.

A New Start

The year 2010 is a new start.


Although the Mayan calender, which was also remake into this movie called 2010 said that it would be the end of the world :S


I would like to set this a little earlier. I know every year I set something but it just doesn't work but at least I tried! Budget constraint also a bit susah right....wth.

I believe I should look into myself more often. Touch on important values of life and believe in it. Find more time to be with my family, who are people which supported me all these while and make me who I am today.

I should also not be too temperament in terms of dealing with challenges in life. I would learn how to take a deep breath and stop for a moment before uttering words, which might hurt other people's feelings.

I should not bow down to hardships in life. It happens and there is always a way in solving them.

Last but not least, love more, give more...ask less. I know I am easily jealous and a very demanding person when come to certain things. I shall work on this part of myself more often.



In short, I should ....


Forgive more, Believe slowly.
Love truly, laugh uncontrollably.
Embrace life and never regret.




XOXO,
theRascal
