Finland: A selective pictorial

Remember the days when I used to blog more then once every other week?.....Yeah me neither. Remember the days when I put up pictures of myself? Yeah...no longer. Anyways, these are a few pictures taken from my Finland trip in June. 

I can't put up the most awesome, magnificent, breathtaking photos of the whole trip cause I'm in them....hence why those pictures are awesome, magnificent and breathtaking. Ahem. These are however, the less awesome pics. Hope you guys like it, cause it been a while since I put up any photos.


The transit at Amsterdam, where a crazy, old supposedly a "nun" stalked my giant ass.



Here you can see a cruise ship passing by the Suomellina Sea Fortress, a historical site.  It's really cool seeing the ship passing by right next to you. Notice the people on the island waving at the people on the cruise. Kinda funny.


As the ship leaving the island.



Superman!

Random views of the town of Altoo.



I really like this picture. Really European.



This ride rotates you 360 as it goes up and down. My boobs hurt like a mofo in this.



More rides that made my boobs hurt.


Some kid that keeps on getting into my shot so I ended up taking a photo of it. That's right. It........Bring it on bitches.


Random pictures of downtown Helsinki.






A very touristy spot.




The famous Helsinki Fish Market. The reason why this photo was taken was cause dude on the boat was fucking cute. I got all sexcited.






The parliament house. I think. Not too sure. But its sure is pretty.




Angels and Demons. The translation still cracks me up.


There are of course more pictures. When I feel like it, I'll blog about this time when I walk around naked in public. In Finland.  True story. I bet you guys would wanna know about that.  Hehe. 

Till then my young pedawans......

From Aussie to Malaysia to Finland....in 29 days

The Constantly Dramatic One is now…in Finland.


Fuck yeah.


I've arrived here bout 4 hours ago. It was a combined 16 hours journey. 12 hours 50 mins from Malaysia, 4 hours transit in Amsterdam (where some fuckkery took place) and another 2 hours, 30mins to Helsinki. I am sooo fucking tired but I will not sleep. Jetlagged is a bitch man.


You guys.....this is like my first time ever in Europe. Ever. Well in all technicality I’ve been to Turkey which is like a motherfucking huge country that actually have parts of its territory in both the Asian and Europe continent. However, I’ve only visited the Asian side so that doesn’t count. So this is the first time ever in Europe.


I am totally geeking out over here.


I’m in my sister’s and brother in law’s place. I’m sooooo happy that I get to see her after 10 months. It’s just me by the way. The rest of the family is in Malaysia. It’s too expensive to fly all of us here. Plus my sis and her husband came back to Malaysia for a holiday back in April when I was in Aussie. I was soooo jealous that everyone was home at that I was the only one away okay. It wasn’t jealousy per’se. It was more like depressed and missing people till it hurts.


Missing people and things sucks donkey balls. It cuts deep and there’s no really cure for it you know. Except for going around trying to be as busy as possible so that you’ll forget…but when you’re in bed at night you still think about it and it still hurts, Despite everything you do to stop it.


So my sis says that if I come back during the winter break, she’ll foot the flight ticket so that I can come visit her. I have an option to visit her when its Winter break in Aussie therefore summer in Finland OR Summer break in Aussie therefore Winter in Finland. Duuuuude, Finland is fucking scary in winter, the sun disappears for 60 days. I mean, the fuck right….the fuck. I’m not gonna visit when there’s no damn sun around fuck that. So that’s why I’m here now, in summer. And in summer, the sun sets at 11.30 at night.


11.30….at night. And comes back out at 3 in the morning. I dunno bout you guys but I much rather visit when there is more sun then no sun at all. And yes, its damn strange in Finland.


So that’s all for noe. I’m hitting Helsinki and all kinds of other places tomorrow. So excited! Update you guys all about it.


Eventually.......

Cutting it close

I gave my 2 weeks notice yesterday.

 

I’m moving out of this shithole in 6 days.

 

I have no boxes. No movers. No car. No new address to move to.

 

 

My final exam starts on Thursday the 18th, finishes on the Saturday the 20th, my moving date is Monday the 22nd and flying back to Malaysia, 11am flight on Tuesday….the 23rd.

 

 

No exact plan. And yet I have never been happiest in my entire time that I have been in Aussie.






Finally I will be moving out of this shit house, away from the definitive embodiment of an asshole that is my creepy as fuck housemate. The shit I have to endure in this house is unbelievable. And chill, I will go into explicit detailing of the fuckery that is living in this house under his villainous reign as soon as I am out.

 

 

My things are going to be sent to my friend’s place. She has her own house so I’m gonna store everything at the garage and hope to God that rats don’t get to it. Even so, rats are much better then living here. I loathe living here. I cannot even begin to explain the extent of my despise of living in this shithole. And part of me cannot stop blaming my parents who made me stay here. It was their choice and yet I’m the one that had to endure 4 months of creepy fuckery. Wasn’t even my motherfucking choice and I was the one that had to sleep with a fucking knife under my pillow cause there’s no lock on the door and my housemate is a creepy, stalking fucktard. I’m the one that has to engage in a yelling, sarcastic, snide fights day in and day out. How easy they were bought in by his “Good boy” play and how bullshit it is that I have to pay for their naivety.

 

 

Parents don’t know shit. And it’s always the kids that have to pay for the wrongs they did.

 

 

But I don’t want to talk about it now. Too much quite, burning hatred is not good for the soul. I will though, just not now. Too much anger now.

 

 

However the reason why I am cutting it close with the moving and all is that I absolutely cannot, will not and I plain out refuse to go back to Malaysia, and then fly off to Finland to visits my sister and then come back to Aussie and see his fugly mug. I will be sooo fucking happy and relax and come back and see his face. I cannot deal with that shit man. I much rather be cutting it close. When I come back here again, I will start fresh. Find a new place and other housemates to bitch about. Or maybe to like too.

 

 

I dunno for sure. All I know is that I never wanna come back to this shithole.


So wish me luck with the packing and the exams. The next time I’ll blog would most probably be from Finland, where I will be staying for 20 days with my sister whom I have not seen since last Sept. That alone is enough to get me through the next 6 days with a smile on my face.

 

 

Ta.

Mah bukkit! You be stealin mah bukkit!




Dude, Langkawi was awesome!


We drove around the whole island, got attacked by monkeys (little piece of shit bastards), I got asked out by a man in uniform (thank you 3kc!), ate a whole lot of sea food and cheese (shout out to Adrienne!), saw penguins in some weird penguin-god worshipping ritual, tried not to run over pedestrians who walk in the middle of the street like little bastards, take a shitload of pictures, encountered a foot ghost...no seriously- a foot ghost, frolic around in the sea in my new swimsuit, exposed my ass to a whole a beach, try to run down a group of monkeys with the car, develop an unhealthy relationship with a...bukkit, ahem......kok besar (wink wink nudge nudge Cheesecakeerian =p), and get thrown out of a hotel.


All in all a fucking great holiday yo.


As for pictures, y'all have to wait cause I barely took photos on my own camera. Why? Cause I'm the idiot who fully charged the battery and then forgot to put it in the camera. That's why. So I have to wait for the rest to send theirs to me. Longer post later but for now the bed beckons and my legs hurts like a bitch from all that hiking.


Ta!

Valar Morghulis


Hey y'all. The Constantly Dramatic One wont be around till next Thursday. Cause I'm off to a well deserved holiday after a shitty semester, which also happened to be my second last semester in Malaysia. One more semester and I'm off bitches. All thanks to the whole international degree/twinning program thingie which I'm in.


But this is only my second last semester if I get accepted to the university of my choice....on that note I should really stop flunking shit. But really, it's not my fault maths is the devil's tool and I'm too pure to get down with that. Which is just a crappy excuse for being worthless at maths. Meh.


So I'm off to
Langkawi. Woooo hoooo!! It's ridiculous but this would be my seventh time down to Langkawi and I'm still excited. I love Langkawi. I love the penguins, the beaches, the food, the ass-kicking duty free chocolates. Fuck yeah!!! Wooooo!! Langkawi!! Also I bought a new swimsuit. Hah!!! I'm insolent bitches. In your face sister dear! Gona go frolicking around on the beach in my brand new suit. Mwhahaha......But...ahem.... I would appreciate if no word of this brand new swimsuit reach her. kthxbai.


Also in my absence I would like to direct the 2 people that still reads my blog to my tumblr account: Valar Morghulis.
tumblr is this new hip version of "a blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging."- as Wikipedia describes it. Artiste use it to publish their work, I use it cause I'm a pseudo-intellectual artsy fartsy snob therefore I must roll with the artsy kids.


Never forget that on top of being constantly dramatic, I am also artsy fartsy and full of shit.


My tumblr is just going to consist of photos I found fascinating, quotes I think are interesting and videos that amuses me....and also random jumbled thoughts that do not fit into Dramatic Musings. Instead of long winded bullshit, it's going to be straight to the point.



Shocking. I know.


Also , I'm heavily into nudes and disturbing surreal artwork. So if blood, nudity, gore, sex and blunt truths makes you uncomfortable than don't click. You have been warned.




*click*Valar Morghulis*click*


P/S:
Props to anyone that know what valar morghulis means.

A vapid and bimbotic post

Okay I know I said there's a hiatus and all that coz the words are not flowing. I wasn't messing around. I am having a somewhat writer's block. So the following post is going to be extremely vapid and bimbotic. You have been warned.


My homegirls and I are going to
Penang!!!! But in May though, exactly one day after our finals. Then we all gonna board a bus that would take us on a 4 hour ride from Wilayah Persekutuan, across the Penang bridge and onto the island of Penang! I would drive us there but my parents got all iffy when I said that. They will never let go of the whole "Oooouuuu CD-bang-the-wall-while-trying-to-reverse-park incident". So we're taking a bus, we could fly but it'll be more expensive but more importantly it will cut our bitching time. Bus ride would give us ample time to bitch about everything under the sun and more.





I am super excited. We gonna rent a car when we're there and go to all these cultural/historical places. Then when its not so hot we will hit the beach and pretend we're on Baywatch. 3kc and Cheesecakeerian can work on their tans. I don't need to do seeing that I'm already brown. I just stalk hot men on the beach. My dad have high powered binoculars...would definitely borrow that for the trip. MWAHAHAHAHA!


Which bring me to another topic, we would be spending at least two days just lazing around on the beach. I need new swimsuits. I mean, I already have one but I need another one. Like hell I'm gonna repeat the same thing twice two days on a row. Which means....the Constantly Dramatic One would need to go shopping. After 3 months of not shopping.
This. Is. Big.





But this is a necessity. I need to look constantly hot.... When coming out of the water. When frolicking around on the beach. When removing sand from my butt crack..... What if Clive decided to go on holiday in Penang? The chances are very slim, I'm gonna agree with you on this one, but like my high school science teacher always say: Preparation is key.


So now, the Constantly Dramatic One is on a mission. To find a swimsuit similar to the one my idol wore:







And then to have a picture of me taken in the same exact pose.



Same. Exact. Pose.



Also, with this blog post, I am declaring that when I am frolicking around on the beaches of Penang, my sunflowers must refer me as 'Marilyn'. Or I'm just gonna ignore them. I'm serious people. Its 'Marilyn' or nothing.


Delusional? Moi? Puhleaaazeeee.


And oh anybody knows good places to eat in Penang? Like really good. Like the "sungguh sedap hingga menjilat jari sampai ke siku" kinda good. Our top priority on this trip is to eat. A lot. Where's the best nasi kandar joint? Ikan bakar? Any other speciality? Oh and please only suggest halal ones, Marilyn is very fussy bout food. Uuuuhhhhhh..... I mean me, the Constantly Dramatic One, is very fussy when it comes to food.



If you're too shy to leave any suggestion in the comment box then mail me. And as token of appreciation I'll send you a pic of Ghendut, my golden hamster, posing like Marilyn. Promise.

Chicago in pictures: Part 1

I finally dragged my ass to upload the photos. So here you go, the first batch of my Chicago trip. I took bout 700 photos all together (2GB memory card people, 2GB) so count yourselves lucky I am only putting up 54 of them. Feel free to comment on my non-talent when it comes to photo taking.


The Constantly Dramatic One sucks donkey balls when it comes to taking pictures...and uploading them.



Mom and dad, Gate 43, LAX to Chicago.




My brother, you know..the one behind the white dude.




Speeches after speeches, felt like I was going to die out of boredom.





Ahhh, family portrait (minus 2 daughters).





We rented this apartment in Chicago coz its cheaper as compared to staying in a hotel. My parents stayed here the whole time we were there while I crashed at my brother's place coz he got wireless.


The Chicago Tribune headquaters near Michigan Avenue.





Michigan Avenue at night. This place is awesome. Basically Chicago's answer to LA's Rodeo Drive.


John Hancock building (on the right) day view. Also on Michigan Avenue.




The John Hancock building night view. You can't see the top of it coz it was all foggy. Pretty creepy, made me think of The Twilight Zone.



Still Michigan Avenue. I think this is a really cool picture. Notice that everything else was out of focus but "The Westin"? Talent bitches, I has them.





The drive towards Chicago downtown (or was it uptown...I dunno). Foggy and cold and so different from home.


The Drake Hotel. Build in the 1920s. Two of my idols have both had suites in them. And when I say idols, I mean Al Capone and Marilyn Monroe. I did not get to check out the world famous lobby but to be near it is better than nothing.




View of the Drake Hotel from the outside.




Victoria's Secret on Michigan Avenue.



VS's revolving door. WHEN THE HELL IS VS GONNA BRANCH TO MALAYSIA? Malaysian women are deprived of your awesomeness. Please come soon, please. And don't forget to bring lots of pretty, silky bras in my size.



Even the fitting room was awesome. A small screen embedded into the mirror featuring the VS angels cat walking down the runway. Shortly after this, a salesgirl came in and started groping me to make sure what my cup size is. Usually I would have huge afflictions against getting groped but seeing that I was in a VS fitting room...I didn't really mind.


Again: VS come to Malaysia already. We Malaysian women and I'm sure the men too are deprived of you.




My brother's place. I wasn't kidding when I say its messy.




The building are pretty much art deco. Made me really happy.



Dude, the parking fare in Chicago is insane. I bitch about having to pay a RM3 per hour parking but goddamn, look at these rates. Made me thankful that I only have to pay RM3 instead of 22.....




My second batch of photos would be of the Chicago Art Institute, Navy Pier, WICKED on Broadway in Chicago and other stuff we did there. I hope I have already bored you to death now.


Please do come again.

Wooo hoooo!! Sabah!!

Helloooooooo to the one person who reads my blog!

I bet you been wondering where I've been well truth be told I was in Sabah!! Term holiday has begun so I'm kicking it off with hittin the beach and being away from my parents. YAY!


Plus my friend, Cheesecakeerian lives there so I just went there and stayed at her place. I wasn't alone though, the Ninja Walrus came with me so it was the 3 of us. Yes if those names sounds more than a little weird to you its just because I am using nicknames to name my friends in my blog. I refused to be the propagator to any unknown Internet stalkers out there who come in the form of creepy, lonely old men.

We went to this island in Sabah called Mamutik Island (follow the link in the tittle to check it out). We had to take this speed boat there which scared me. FYI, I'm afraid of big bodies of water because I can't swim and I watched waaaay too much 'JAWS' when I was younger. So anyway, everyone else was laughing at me in the boat because I was hanging on to the railing for dear life and apparently looked constipated out of the fear of getting thrown out of the boat. We finally reached the island and was I glad that I didn't drown. The people told us that we can't go snorkeling because its jellyfish season. The Ninja Walrus was crushed, it didn't effect me seeing that I can't swim. So we just spent our time splashing around by the shore and working on our tan. And then we got attacked.

By the goddamn little fishes. Apparently the waves were getting stronger and they brought with them these goddamn little fishes to the shore with them. And these fishes were such little bitches that they bit everyone. I was chillin in the water and I felt a sting on feet and then another on my hand, my leg and the final straw was when one of those little bitches bit me on my ass. That's just pushing it. They were so small but my gawd, their teeth was sharp.


Then as we were leaving the island, it started raining. A heavy downpour and I had to get in the boat when it was raining and the sea was going crazy and I was terrified. My friends were all laughing at me and telling me to chill out and making jokes about how the boat gonna topple over. I laughed along but I wasn't amused. I was terrified. There's nothing scarier than getting in a boat when the sea was going crazy from the rain and the realization that you can't swim for shit.

I survived though. Thank god for that. Anyways I wanna thank Cheesecakerian and her family for letting the Ninja Walrus and I stayed at her place and being so nice about it.
