My first post of the year. This is just wow. When I first started blogging, I doubted I would be able to go through the first month. But now The absolute room has officially entered Year 2009! :)
Instead of making a list of resolutions, I've instead volunteered myself to be part of a meme! I think it would be interesting to list out things that I have come to love throughout the year. I got the letter R from Hope so let's lay out the ground rules.
The rules:
You leave a comment on this post, and I’ll assign you a letter. You write about ten things you love that begin with your assigned letter, and post it at your place. When people comment on your list, you give them a letter, and the chain continues on and on.
1. Reunions. I've been to one too many last year. And I never get tired of them. Regardless it's meeting up with old friends or returning to the company of my family members, there's a part in me who appreciate these relationships much.
2. Reading. When I was younger, the only source I had was my sister's pathetic stash of novels. Sometimes Emmy lend me hers. I lived in a town where there's no MPH or Borders. But that didn't stop me from enjoying the quiet time of reading. I read to find composure. I think Jodi Picoult's a brilliant writer. But recently I've taken a liking to read blog entries. And that's exactly how I found Hope dies last.
3. Reza Salleh. I've heard so much about him but that's until I've seen him performed live in front of me then I was completely won over. He reminds me very much of Jason Mraz. You know, that honest kind of music that could get him laid anytime. Heh.
4. R.S.V.P. Just because it's French. And us saying it without knowing what exactly it stands for. Nowadays just by rsvp-ing allows you free entry to events and all. And the convenience of Facebook to allow us to rsvp asap. (oh how I love abbreviation!) And for those who don't know, R.S.V.P. stands for Répondez s'il vous plaît that translates to 'Please respond'.
5. On being random. Even theabsoluteroom.blogspot.com was created randomly. Don't you just love the feeling of being able to do some spontaneous and different and have a great time at it? You don't need me to give examples on how to be random do you?
6. Replying emails. As well as getting them. I am addicted to my mailbox, i admit I am. The trills I get when I saw there's '1 unread email' are priceless.
7. Rolling my R's. Say it with me now. Rrrrachel is rrrrravishing, rrrright?
8. Renovated Zouk. Better rooms, better music. Zouk KL now has Barsonic for indie nights. Nothin beats Lapsap and their long island tea. And I am absolutely loving my Zouk priviledges!
9. Roti Canai. Even though the best Roti Canai could only be found in my hometown, but this piece of grilled dough makes the best supper you can find during that midnight hunger pangs.
10. Robert Pattinson. That pair of sleepy eyes makes me wonder how he look like when he is sleeping. Robert Pattinson, I fell for you when you were Edward Cullen. Tell me, are you the same person off-screen? I wonder.
So people, leave a comment if you want to do a meme and I'll assign you with a letter! Get your creative juice flowing for the new year :)
