when in the movies

a big shout out to february babies. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

i know there were a few =D

anyway, as the title above would have made it pretty obvious to you readers, 

im here to tell you my top 5 things NOT to do in the cinema.

you see, saturday's movie with my cousin and former college mate would have been great if not for the beyond irritating couple next to me. it was like they had a last minute spontaneous urge to watch a chinese movie which im pretty sure they neither understood nor paid attention to.

so, without further delay, my top 5 cinema ethics.

5. Never come late when you have seats in the center. this is especially important in movies with a lot of dialogue or action. i really dont want to see your behind even if it is for a few seconds. worst, if you cant find your seats and keep changing positions.

4. Never answer your phone and talk for half the movie. i think this goes without saying. if you have to, talk outside if it is very urgent or say you'll call back later in a whisper, if not so important.

3. When eating popcorn or slurping drinks, eat or slurp softly. didnt your mother teach you manners? i think a lot of people would appreciate it if you didnt go "chomp chomp chomp, slurp slurp slurp" in the cinema.

2. When in the movies, and if you need to open your legs really wide, please go and buy 2 seats, so that you dont go banging other people's leg. its not only annoying, its unhygienic especially for people like me. i really dont know where those pants of yours went rubbing against. *shivers*

and of course the BIG no. ONE

1. Please please PLEASE dont talk in the cinema. i really dont need commentaries throughout the duration of the movie. and if you really have to be all lovey dovey and ber-dating in the cinema, go sit in like a secluded area far from watchful eyes and attentive ears and also from people like me who actually wants to watch the movie in peace. go buy those couple seats, i heard they are big and comfy.

fuh! anger management. 

im not being demanding, i just want my money to be worth it. 

free from unwanted noises and irritating disturbances. 

to that couple who sat next to me on saturday night and irritated the crap out of me, i really hope you dont find another poor soul to torture. once is truely enough.

*end*

pree pree

to destress after a long day of economics papers, i have decided to blog about my friend Piriya.

*rubs hands together* this is gonna be fun *sniggers*
i actually wanted to write it last night, but thought if i started writing about pree, it'll eat into my study time, so i decided to do it the next day.

So, here's another top 5.
Alithea's list of top 5 things Piriya does when she is hungry.


5. Calls me up, and asks me out for dinner, mind you its 9pm almost 10pm.

4. Calls me up, demands I wear a skirt and we go out for dinner, mind you i don't wear skirts very often either.

3. Arrives at my apartment unannounced, calls me to come down straight away, *im still in house clothes, thinking what could have possibly gone wrong* i go down, walks to her car, she motions me to sit in her car, and she tells me to go makan. Our conversation :

Alithea : Huh?! but i already ate dinner.
Pree : Never mind just teman me.
*Alithea just sits there, staring at her*

*she starts driving* can't jump out. not without risking injuries.

2. Studies, apparently it takes her mind off food. and she eats later, like at 2am in the morning.


and no.1 :

SHE DOESN'T EAT AT ALL. ( maybe she eats batteries )

can you blame us for calling you a robot, pree? LOL


ps, no piriya-robot was damage in the production of this blog entry.

no offence pree, here's your late birthday dedication. haha
hugs and kisses

alithea

top 5 ways to make yourself cranky every morning

my list of the top 5 things you can do to yourself when you want to wake up cynical, sarcastic and easily irritated by david's-sometimes-not-appropriate-comments, e.g. "can i press your pimple?" he just made my day.great.

5. don't get enough sleep the night before.

4. don't get enough sleep the previous night.

3. don't get enough sleep the previous previous night.

2. don't get enough sleep the previous previous previous night.

and no. 1 :
sleep at 2am every night,err day, because of exams, which would result in a lack of sleep.

then you would have the perfect morning, getting annoyed at the unnecessary things david has to say.hilarious.

*end*

ps, i'm still not getting enough sleep. hurray for me.

top 5 ways to make yourself depressed.

according to my Oxford advance learner dictionary, the word depressed means very sad and without hope,
thus i hereby make a list of 5 things that would most evidently make me depressed.

5. eat too much, then complaining about it, then starts feeling bloated, hurts, becomes sad.

4. listening to emo, sappy, i-can't-live-without-you love song for too long.

3. not getting the shoes you've been wanting for a long time. (people don't seem to get hints)

2. I get really bad results, due to reasons that are yet to be looked into.

and last but certainly the most depressing :

1. sitting for an Economics 6 paper at 1pm in the afternoon and scrambling your hands off.
(no time no time no time!!!!!!!)
i think the people who made the exams paper and set the time are sadists. seriously so much to write so little time. my hand would now like to have a massage. =)


writing this top 5 list has made me even more depressed, just thinking about it. i therefore end my list by saying, to be a happier person, try to avoid the 5 things mentioned above. however, if you can't avoid them, then we shall all be depressing people, wearing black, to moan our generation who can't seem to answer econs paper 6. my great depression.

lesson learnt, never attempt an econs 6 paper if you are unsure of the result.

sad.
