I checked my blog a few days ago and realized that I've not been blogging for months now. And since I've reached the
'not so busy period', why not? So ignore the ipod template cause its only temporary, I'm just waiting for my muse to head me in the head and go
"you know what fez, you should do this". Till then, just read if you're interested. That's why you came here in the first place, right?
To start things off, I would just like to welcome you readers, if there are any. Old or new, whether you know me or not, I rather talk about utter crap then tell you what the hell happened in my life. So here it goes.
BUDGET DATE #1
I figure I do this cause couples nowadays need new things in life. Things to spice up old relationships. And this was tested and proven to work. Oh, I ain't no guru of love so screw it if it doesn't work for you.
It only cost $10, per person, and it comes with benefits. So here are the steps.
1. Have dinner at some affordable fast food outlet. My take, Mcdonalds will do just fine. If you're a student, even better $6.
2. Bring him/her to a lan shop. Pick those $2 or less per hour. Now, seat your ass in front of the computer and play for a minimum of two hours. Forget about winning, its all for the fun of it. $4
3. Pick a game. My take? Pick Left 4 dead.
4. Now play till your hearts content and boom! That's your date for $10, per person
And why this? Simple. There are the advantages.
Oh, and if you're clueless about what the hell I'm talking about, please do read it up somewhere in wiki. I believe they have an article somewhere hidden in there.
1. You get to shoot zombies together
2. You work together to safe each others ass from getting decapitated by the zombies
3. You get to shout, scream, yell at your partner. All in the name of love
Come on, seriously. Try it to believe it

Hello, its me Natasha. I am having alot of trouble dealing with the thoughts in my mind. And well, its hard. And then all of a sudden there was this one person who just made everything feel better. Just like that. And I want to share what I she said to me and many others with you. And take it to heart. It will make everything feel better. Even though its for a little while.
"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered: forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.
If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway."
Mother Teresa
Thanks Mother Teresa. Wherever you are.
a lot of love and serenity,
Natasha
If you were to ask a foreigner about Singaporeans, they would probably share the same thoughts.
1. Singaporeans are 'kiasu'
2. Singaporeans love to eat
3. Singaporeans are 'kaypohs'
Even though how much you don't want to admit it, yes somewhere inside our little hearts we share this attribute/s. I told myself, maybe the
'younger generation' would be excused from this stereotype but I guessed wrong. It's like a chain reaction, which makes us Singaporeans, either young or old. It's God's way of saying
'take it, now enjoy it'I could give you a million and one reasons but I'll just state three for this.
1. Its how we were raised in a community where being the first means
everything. Even if it means squeezing into a already packed MRT train.
(This would lead to another issue)2. Four races living on one dot, what did you expect?
3. It's known world wide that Singapore is a safe country to live in
(but Mas Selamat had to spoil the record) so seeing something 'out of line' would be super cool.
Which comes to another point. Whoever came out with this?
The guy was probably trying to promote the interest in journalism but now it looks more like a
'bitch corner'. People used to say
"I'll see you in court!". Now their saying
"I'll see you in stomp, bitch"Its cool to have a site where you share news, not about your bitch fit you had with a woman who called you a bitch for not buying stuff from her. I would say maybe 1 out of 10 would have substance for me but the rest are like personal attacks. Take this for example,
http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/viewContent.jsp?id=76274http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/viewContent.jsp?id=76255Can't they just let this people off. Do whatever they want to do instead of this online bullying. If you think about it. Singapore is super small. Share some thoughts, to yourself.
Natasha Francisca Hamid is the phase to being in her own world and staying in there for a while.
A girl can always fantasize cant she?
PS: Please mind the careless spelling mistakes and errors as this entry was written with bursting excitement of not wanting to work at work. :)
Lets begin,
First I would like to start with my friend who i believe is Imaginary but I pretty much believed in him when I was alot younger. (Psst...my birthday's coming up... call me). Anyways, he is very much human and now I feel so happy that he belongs in the right place with the rest of his man-like primates.
We use to plan everything together. From what colour socks to wear right down to the proper hygiene. Then I grew up and he cried his eye balls out when Ah Meng passed on and we decided its time to let go.
Soon or later, I fell in love and realize that life is like a box of chocolates. Once you get the chocolates, add more sugar to make it more sweet and less bitter. Which brings me to my next fanatsy...my pre-wedding photo.
I would not want something so mushy wushy because lets face it, I'm going to smell my husband's fart in the morning and make his coffee for him for work no matter how much he yells at me for having a bad morning. Of which bring me to the next point or piece of advise...
"Every morning should start with a little love. Telling your parents that you love them each morning maybe hard. So look in the mirror and tell yourself that you're wonderful and you love yourself. If you have the urge to hug yourself, do it behind close doors or share it with close friends. Dont want people to think you're some teletubby care bear freak right?"
So yeah, I'm keeping the pre-wedding or engagement photo simple. And oh yes, very important, I'm the yellow one, in the picture that is.
Of course what would a wedding be without a wedding dress. These are my selections for the current moment with no cost price taken into consideration.
For my hollywood bollywood overtop grand bang wedding, this dress is so the one. Like totally.

Its is going to be a garden beach wedding so I'm just going to go barefoot and let the dress do its work. I just have to say. I love it....for now. Nonetheless, one fantasy dream is not enough. For my garden beach wedding Part 2, this is the dress...
Red socks and boots not included please. But for this dress, I would definitely be wearing heels or some sort to complete the look.
But what if it rains or my mummy decides to bring a hurricane my way for marrying the man that I love and she doesnt approve of? Yes yes, these precautions have to be taken into consideration. So this is what I thought of. I want a ballroom Validictiorian wedding. Nobody is allowed to wear a mask. NO NO NO! I want to entertain my guest and be able to thank them personally for coming. Even if I am just making a speech with my groom to be. Eye contact is very important. Furthermore, if you wear a mask, you would be missing on the intricate designs of my Ballroom Validictorian Dress....

Price? Dont Ask.
Now lets move on to the what ifs.....
1. What if my husband and I decide to celebrate our silver Anniversary (25 years)?
2. What if i die of H1N1 or some other disease in the future and what to re-new my vows as my dying wish?
3. What if I am just looking for a reason to wear this dress?
Price? Affordable.
Pure. Love.
And last but not least.....
My Cake. Athe moment I thinking of a more than 2 tier cake. Hold your breath but not your appetite....
Price? Hell, it doesnt matter.
I would not want this exact cake of course, but certainly something along this line. More or less.
Calling all painters and designers, you're more than welcome to share your designs with my groom and I. It would be a valued yet priceless wedding gift. If you can rejuvenate picasso, I have no comments except a VIP seat for you at my reception.
Now for the guest list.
I love people and meeting new people and being around people and yeah, I cant invite so many people. Hafez said so. So I have come up with the Split Second Impulsive Guest List Requirements. If you meet these requirements, you're more than welcome to come and attend.
1. You know a celebrity and are able to bring them along to the wedding. Local celebrities not included.
2. You mange to get us a ducati or porsche for our Just Married Wedding vehicle.
3. You are an entertainer. No clowns and juggling please. All magicians welcome.
4. You have no curfew.
5. Your best friend and date for the wedding is NOT your mum. But if desparate, she's also welcome.
6. You love food. I dont like wasting food.
7. You are jolly, happy, and know when not to get drunk but how to get high.
Yes, for now, these are the sole requirements to be a guest at our wedding. Other than that,
all are welcome.
Love loves from bride soon to be,
Natasha
Hello, I just was contemplating and thinking that well something is up.Especially when some men abuse their authority as a husband by having affairs and abusing their wives and think that their wives are alright with it.And with such stories that I have uncovered, I realize that we women are suppressed. Totek.Well I think its time to end this era and let the tits rule for once.But before we jump to such conclusions, lets evaluate a couple of case studies.Right, moving on.Case Study 1Jimmy Tan is a well known man of a prestigious advertising firm. He already has one wife. Recently, a business proposal had led him to Indonesia of where he met a cosmopolitan, sexy, all that in bed woman. She was young of course, compared to his wife who was already passed her 40s. So yeah, he married this chick and returned back to his country. Only thing is that he didn't bring his new wife along with him. Instead, he told both wives that he was TEMPORARILY MARRIED to appease both of them.What does TEMPORARILY MARRIED mean?Simple. When Jimmy is in Indonesia he is married to the young chick. When he is in Singapore, he is not married to her but his 40 year old wife.Now I have done my research and in both countries there is certainly no such constitution. Why did her marry her then? And by making such a statement, did he really love both of them equally?My guess is that young and lively beats old and lumpy anytime.But lets not make judgment just yet k.Case Study 2The Sultan of Perak is a fine man of dignity and pride. He takes care of the country and as every king does, he has a queen by his side too. On a political business trip, he went to Thailand. Now, the women there are simply exotic. I'm sure the Sultan can agree with me for he fell in love with a Thailand girl from a little village. However, the chief only said that if the Sultan agreed to marry her that he can have her. So that's exactly what he did. He did more too. He pampered his new bride with a luxurious house, car and all the 5Cs that I wish I had too.Now, he returned back to Perak with his new bride. The queen of course was furious. But what could she do? Her power was not as poignant as that of the king. She was forced to accept.Which brings me to these questions...a) how can you marry another without your wife's consent?b) how are you treating each wife equally when you have already defied one?Anyways, this queen was smart. She hired a bomoh and got the new bride murdered. It was a brutal one too. And of course due to the country's indiscretion, the bomoh was not convicted and the Sultan and Queen are still married.What do I think?I think the Queen would make an awesome villain for a Batman Movie. And she can do it without even lifting a finger.Case Study 3Men in countries such as Pakistan believe that it is God's will to rape woman. However, this men are blinded by ignorance. They are not educated let alone been to school and base all their beliefs on people who can read the Quran but not interpret it. But since, the government cant be bothered with such crimes, the woman can't do much.Sad isn't it?Yeah, as I was saying, we woman are suppressed.Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that yes, it is a sin to get divorced. But you mean to tell me that God wishes for you to continue in a marriage where you are abused emotionally more than mentally.I mean, come on, which wife would really want her husband to marry another? Of course, she would do it out of love to keep her husband happy. But when you really think about it, the poor woman would be living a lie for the rest of her life.I repeat, sad isn't it?However, we don't live in Pakistan or Afghanistan or countries as such where the men treat the woman well like shit.We live in a hot sunny tropical damn fucking humid Singapore. And hell we have rights.So if you have a man in your life, doing something behind your back, please please please make sure you got your facts right first. He could be planning a trip for the 2 of you to the Bahamas and we wouldn't want that plan going down the drain now would we?So yes, get your facts right, get witness and if all the bits fall into the right places for all the wrong reasons, don't be afraid to kick some balls. Literally.Which bring me to the next point....

If you're not a movie goer or someone who sits behind the laptop watching free streaming movies or 'legally' downloaded shows, its about time to head down to the theater for some great movies.
I always had this 'its better to safe' kinda attitude towards watching a movie but some movies are worth watching on the big screen compared to your 30" plasma TV. And for the record, I don't recommend going to the movie theater opposite Tang's shopping mall. Go figure. I don't wanna get sued.
I would recommend you watch the fourth installation to the 'Fast and Furious'. It's a continuation from the 'Too fast Too Furious' movie. My opinion would be that Tokyo Drift was just something they wanted to try to sell but just couldn't make the cut. People prefer seeing imports and American muscle cars going head on with one another while sexy Latino girls flag them off at the start line compared to the Tokyo girls who just go 'Seto'
Story stars two favourites, Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, trying to get the same person for different reasons. Vin wants the guy for killing his wife while Paul wants him for dealing drugs into the city. Some how the two get inter twine with each other and put in a good story line and some fast moving cars, not forgetting the camera angles of just asses, and bam! You.ve got yourself a hit.

Taken is another movie you should watch starring Liam Neeson. The story begins with Liam's daughter being kidnapped in Paris with Amanda, her friend. Using his past abilities and sources, he hunts the kidnappers and forces them to return his only child. In the whole event of doing this, he is constantly being tagged by the police for disrupting the peace in Paris.
A good show worth the cost but the ending would be quite disappointing. But do check it out!

Skip the formalities and lets head on down to business. Yes, its been a long time since I've updated daily but I'll try from now on. Maybe put in a few knocks here and there just for the fun of it.
Let's talk about networking today. It's probably the biggest thing now. And it's used for different purposes and motives. Networking includes Facebook, Friendster, Myspace, Tagger, I don't know. There's so many. I lost count. It's so easy to use, even my youngest brother has his own account which makes me wonder, shouldn't there be a certain age limit for kids to be playing cause I can assure there are things in this places where they shouldn't be poking their heads in.
I used to check Friendster every single minute of the day back in school but now it seems like the site has lost its charm and appeal. Facebook is probably the most popular site amongst teens now. So what makes Facebook more appealing to the general public? For different obvious reasons.
1. The amount of unlimited games you can play within the site itself.
2. The different applications you can install to either punch or kiss your friends.
3. Tagging your friends in the pictures so everyone knows who's the hot chick beside you.
And many more. But when you think about it, it somewhat beats the purpose of being a networking site. I read it off somewhere before that this sites are actually places for people to be reunited with their old friends. Erm, I guess its just a cover up line for the site. Cause come on, we all know why the guys are there for.
And yes, the quizzes are super lame but effective when you're bored. Made me wonder the creator must have had alot of time on his hand to do such things. Wished I had that too.
