the great couple meme - roomies edition

who would have thought the girl i thought is a senior during tuition in primary would actually become my classmate throughout most of secondary school and eventually become my roommate for 4 consecutive years? we've come a long way...


rachel's


Tell us about the first time you met and your first impression of him/her:

I first met her when we took BM tuition together. I don’t remember exactly the first day we meet, but my first impression was her was that she was elder than me and very mature. And then when we attended the same secondary school in form 1, she was a very cool person (as in like, quite the expressionless) and an un-talkative person


What’s a weird habit or quirk that s/he has?:

she likes cute things like polka dotted items(clothes, bags, accessories,shoes,etc), heart shaped things, random cute soft toys and animals, especially those in the monyet family. Oh, and bows!


What makes him/her sad?:

hmmm… not too sure… her newly pedicure-d nails broken? Her favourite perfume finished? I think its things like this…


What makes him/her angry?:

when her ngok don’t listen to what she says. When she has to wear something which is totally un-fashionable or something in bright colour. When she is made to dye her hair black in school. When she had to take off her studded earrings in school cuz it was too big. When she is made to wait for something/somebody. when she is made to do things she don’t like,e.g. go under the sun. Finding out an appointment has been cancelled only after she is done getting ready. Wow~ I did list out a lot…


What excites him/her?

going on dates with her ngok? The type where she gets to wear dresses and dress up, excites her. Going for jazz concerts? Oh, going for shopping definitely excites her! Coffee bean?


Tell us something funny about him/her:

her bimbo reaction to things are funny. But she is definitely not a bimbo, just that sometimes she reacts in a bimbo way. That funny sound she makes when somebody pokes her. Haha!


What’s s/he like at home?:

she sleeps all the time when she is in melaka but I bet when she is the same in kluang. If she is not sleeping, she is probably reading blogs or blogshops, watching friends or dvds or doing her nails but she hardly do them on her own now cuz she goes for manicure and pedicure these days.


What’s s/he like at work/school?:

umm… she hardly goes for classes these days, but whenever she is in class, she is probably sitting with her ngok and chatting with him or playing his psp or probably day-dreaming. Haha! I don’t think she pays attention. Hehe~


Describe his/her room:

rather un-organized but not a dirty kinda person. She chucks her products all over the place and then complains that it has gone missing only to find it after a few days in the nooks and crannies of her table.


What’s his/her best friend like?:

its my cousin! And then there is another guy as well. My cousin is pretty easy going and smart. I am like the stupid cousin. Umm… wat else about her? sarah is hardworking. Gawd, I dunno know my cousin that well after all. Ridhwan is fashion forward and gossip king. Haha! Cuz I remember back in secondary school, ridhwan always know about the latest celebrity gossip and news,you know, new movies, new singers, new songs, etc… I think he is pretty liberated. Oh, I remember going to his house for raya and he was not wearing baju melayu. I think he refuse to be seen in baju melayu. Lol.


Do you know who s/he hates the most?:

I have never really hear her say she hates anyone but I guess she dislikes people who talks bad about her behind her back or anyone who betrays her friendship.


Have you met his/her exes?:

yes.


Do his/her parents like you?:

well, I hope they do. Aunty, the chocolate chip cookies, macaroni and cup cakes you made are really delicious!!


What’s the first thing s/he would do or say if s/he fell down and scraped their knee:

fuck! Hvnt heard her curse in a long time. As in curse and mean it. Not the joking type which she says to me, her ngok or our other friends. Maybe her ngok don’t allow her to curse anymore. Hehe~


what would s/he do in an emergency situation with other people involved?:

call her ngok. Haha!! I really do think so, even when she is in kluang. Haha!! Or her bro.


Which shop would s/he spend the most time at in a shopping mall?:

forever 21. mng.


what would s/he have for a typical breakfast?:

if she ever does, dimsum or coco crunch or coffee bean’s breakfast.


Where would s/he want to go for dinner?:

if it is in kluang, barneys without a doubt. In melaka, probably MBO/GSC cinemas. Lol. Anyway, I think the few restaurants which she always goes to is secret recipe, equatorial’s bistro and simply fish. Probably old town too…


What kind of movie would s/he choose at the cinema?:

chick flicks or cartoons, especially those with animals in it. Monkeys.


Describe his/her taste in music:

she definitely dislikes punk rock, r&b and hip hop. She likes jazzy stuff esp Michael buble. Korean music, she only listens to Rain. Slow English and mandarin ballads.


If s/he wasn’t going out with you, who would s/he be going out with?:

her ngok, sarah or ridhwan or yeeseen.


What item in his/her wardrobe would you like to burn:

umm… I know I haven’t been honest with her about that medium sized MNG black handbag she has but it is the thing that I want to burn the most! She seemed to like it, so I didn’t wanna say anything bad about it. Sorry, mal. To me, it looks really aunty-ish. Glad she doesn’t use it as often nowadays. But overall, she has rather classy taste for clothes and bags. She likes basic pieces, with not much prints. Basic colors like black, white, grey and blue.


What is s/he good at?:

she is good at defending her stand and beliefs. She can find a million reason to reason with you, whatever it is she thinks is right or whatever it is that she likes. No wonder she was in the debate team in school! Oh, she is good at socializing too. I bet everyone who had met her enjoys her company! Oh yeah, she is pretty good at sleeping to… she falls asleep just like that even with the lights on. No tossing and turning cuz I hardly hear her move when she is sleeping. Oh yeah, she is also good at memorizing facts and reading subjects when it comes to studying.


What is s/he totally horrible at?:

being on time! Getting up and going for classes! Haha! Seriously, I think she is kinda horrible in organizing her things. She never organizes her notes. And then she thinks that they had went missing. She is horrible at using the things that she had bought. She would have a new top sitting in her cupboard for years and never worn it before.


What’s something about him/her that is annoying/infuriating?:

hmmm… she is annoying when she acts cute with her ngok… XD next time do it behind closed doors ok? Don’t hurt my ears and eyes…


What’s something that you two fundamentally disagree on?:

that she should change her hairstyle every once in a while. It’s really hard to convince her to change her hairstyle! All these years of knowing her, she only had 3 different hairstyles. Okay, maybe 4 if I count that time when she grew her hair about 3 inches longer than she normally would. Oh, we also disagree about the bob hairstyle. I think that if one were to have a bob, it has to be now when it is trendy whereas she thinks if one were to have a bob hair cut, it has to be when the trend has died down and nobody has it. I think by the time the trend dies down, it will no longer be trendy and one would look outdated with a bob. I guess we just have to agree to disagree…


What’s something that you two agree whole-heartedly on?:

I dunno lah… wat is it?


Is s/he possessive?:

of me? Nope, don’t think so. Of her ngok? Yes!


Why would s/he succeed in life?:

yes, of course! She has her way of getting the things she wants, she knows how to charming/convincing people into getting what she wants. She will probably be very convincing during job interviews. And she is a determined person. I also think that she is pretty clear about her goals in life.


what is the coolest gift that s/he has ever given you?:

that pair of earring she got me years ago. It is still with me and in perfect condition even though I don’t wear it all the time. Ooooooh!! I really like the eye-shadow palette she gave me too! I love all the shades.*hearts*


What does s/he avoid at all costs?:

the sun. everybody knows that!


What does s/he spend the most money on?:

shopping: clothes and bags. Spas.


Describe his/her typical sunday:

wake up really late in the afternoon. If she is not going out with her ngok, she would have light brunch, coco crunch or maggi. Watch some friends series. Go back to bed to laze around some more and then go for dinner with her ngok and probably movies too.


Why would s/he be dangerous?:

if she is ever mad at a person, she really IS mad. If she dares to say it, she would do it. *Rachel runs away and hides…*


Tell us about a time s/he looked absolutely gorgeous:

she is always gorgeous. Cuz she spends time choosing her clothing items, footwear and bag every time she is stepping out of her house. Oh, and make-up-ing as well. Unlike me, I just roll out of my bed into the shower and roll out of the house into the lift. Wtf. Recently, would be when she went out for her birthday dinner. Cuz everything was perfect and matching, the bag, the dress and the shoes.


What’s something about him/her that would surprise all of his/her friends?:

that she is actually a very predictable person? But I think everybody knows that. Oh, I think our uni friends would be really surprised to know how she dresses and acts when she was in secondary. Also, there is another thing which would surprise people but I shall not tell it here. Hehe~


What do you love most about him/her?:

that her way if thinking is different from my other friends in the sense that she is more mature. She has a more grown-up-ish understanding of things. So it’s nice to chat with her, especially when it comes to serious stuffs. It’s nice to hear a mature and different perspective of things that sometimes, even I never thought of.


The biggest lesson you have learnt from loving your soulmate:

that latte is coffee plus tea and mocha is coffee plus chocolate? That an Indian and a Chinese can share a room for more than 3 years? hmmm…… probably, going to classes doesn’t mean getting better grades. What? Roommates for more than 3 years and nothing great or philosophical?
