Finally!!!

... *kissing the bandwidth floor!* I've been going crazy and totally helpless for the past few days... Why? Because of Taiwan's earthquake. No... I'm not that of a humanitarianist freak. I'm worse... I need my internet. Finally at 0054 hours today... I managed to log back in MSN and patch up a few games! I guess this is probably one of those few times that I am not able to vent out my frustrations at anyone or at anything as it is the work of God. *I can't be cursing God now right?* So what have I been up to? Alot actually... But still in no mood to write about anything. So please bear with me if my posts are abit like me... disoriented. Last night I had dinner with RS and the rest. We went to King Crab restaurant. *even though it was only probably a 15 minute walk to Fatty Crab... idiots!* Couldn't enjoy the meal... because they ordered pork and frogs legs... wtf?! I ended up eating rice with some fish and lots and lots of mantou... =P It wasn't all for no

Wowee!!! I finally got my hands on a Shuttle XPC!!! After 3 long years of drooling over it... I got myself one as a birthday treat! What are you looking at you ask? That little toaster sized box on the right is the computer... Yes... it is! I'm not joking! Complete with Intel Pentium D 3.4GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 250GB HDD, DVD Writer *forgot the spec* , added-on an MSI NX7600GS Graphics Accelerator and 2 x 19" LCD Monitor running on dual mode! Woo Hoo!!! This feat is made possible by combining my Hari Raya ang pao *well lu pao since its green... wait mixing mandarin and cantonese already... hahahaha* with my graduation ang pao mummy gave me! Hmm... Actually... I didn't spend that much... But then again... I don't normally spend this amount of money unless I really really really really really had to have it... and I think 3 years is long enough don't you think? Hehehe... I shall stop justifying my purchase now... In the mean time... forgive me for my absence and m

Total hours of fasting on board a plane and getting cracked lips due to dehydration... 20 *the stupid plane was following the sun... and I only was able to break fast when we landed!* Total weight lugged around getting on the train and taxi to get to their house... 35kg *a rice/porridge cooker, bags of instant ketupats, kuih lapis from sarawak given by yambo, cai po for laksa johor... etc... oh crap! I forgot the lime!* The nonsenses I consumed when it was time to break fast... 1 bag of airline nuts & 2 cans of pepsi *maximum sugar rush and salt junkie fix on an empty stomach!* Amount spent on the taxi ride... 20 quid *equivalent to RM140... too blur, weak and hungry to spend any TIME figuring out tube and bus routes from Paddington Station... rather spend money* Total hours spent trying to sleep in 48 hours... 5 *2 after packing... 3 on the plane... dang!* The looks on the faces when they finally figured out who was holding the camera... PRICELESS!!! *Waaaahahahahahhahahahahaha

SIAL PUNYA PETRONAS!!!

Click this link at your own risk. May cause salty substance to drip from eyes... http://202.71.107.161/petronas/bm/tvc2.asp *wiping away tears* Why oh why must you make such advertistments?!?!?! Its really hard to make me cry... but you... you make me cry almost every year by making 2 minute medias such as this!!! Damn you all!!! Okay... so now you learn something about me... Put me in stressful situations, give me 3 projects and have the deadlines a day apart, torture me with the worst kinds of pain, give me any kind of illness or injury... do all that all in one go... I Can Still Rock The World Smiling!!! BUT... have me sit two minutes of a displayment where old people cry or portray the sacrifices or innocence of the love old people give to another or show how his life had amounted to almost nothing and spends his last days in this world feeling lonely... and I'll show you how I look like when I cry... And then I'll curse you!!! Yes... soppy chick flicks or lengthy dramas wh

Rojak Anyone?

Before you read this... Please read the disclaimer at the bottom of this post. Thank you... *LOL* Couldn't sleep... So what could I do this late/early in the morning while I wait for the time to have my "sahur"? Surf... Here I was reading the news on The Star Online, surfing around when I came across blog posts from someone who looks to me like a chinese who married an indian. Reading his posts has got me thinking... I grew up with a "racist" dad... Well... not exactly... we're not racist... all of us in our family grew up having non-malay best friends *due to the fact that we were forced NOT to speak malay at home and therefore are more fluent in english... (My SPM / O lvls equivalent Results - English A1; Malay C6) this made us the "arrogant malays" in goverment primary schools and our malay friends were like avoiding us.* My sis had Dhalita as her "Legendary Best Friend" in Secondary... and me being a "social butterfly" as

Fasting Month Is Here Again... Doo Daa... Doo Daa!

Image
Yeay! My favourite month of the year is here! What I love about it? Well... Yummy selection of foods to choose from... A month to forgive and repent... The chore of "What should I eat today?" is downsized to 1 instead of 3... *lol* Many more reasons actually... but can't think of more at the moment because its too early... *hehehe* So... The first day of fasting... couldn't really sleep... was abit excited maybe... managed to get some shut eye around 3am... Mummy brought me back the famous "ayam boblek" from Jogyakarta for sahur *last meal of the day... which is supposed to last the whole day till sunset... but who can eat much so early in the morning?* ... Due to the fact that I overslept during the last first day of fasting... I set my phone alarm to ring not once... but 3 times!!! *hahahaha* ... First ring went off at 4.30am *snooze* ... 4.38am... *snooze* ... 4.46am... *disable alarm* ... Second alarm went off at 5am *snooze* ... And the phone rang at 5

Mercy Malaysia Annual Fundraising Dinner 2006

Last night was Mercy Malaysia 's Annual Fundraising Dinner. Mummy, Halimy, Bobby, his wife, Ellen, Nazrin, Jennifer, Lee John, his girlfriend and I filled a table purchased by Selatan this year. *if it wasn't for my dear Auntie Jim, knowing me, I would have avoided such events due to the fact that its dress code being formal hehehehe* Dressing up for the event, I finally got to wear my white kaftan looking baju kurung which was made for last two year's Eid *LOL* . Put on some earrings, 1 minute make up and heels *all of which I dread wearing for any purpose* and off we went to KLCC Convention Center *6:45pm* . Arriving the reception *7:45pm* , mummy didn't bring the tickets, but all she had to do was say that she's Auntie Jim's sister and we know our table number which was 44. She also mentioned to the reception saying that the table is for her family members and that any mat salleh looking chap or his indian looking girlfriend or any chinese looking person wer

Jason is a friend I met on RO *its amazing how most of the great people I have met are through the internet* whom I look up to as my "chinese brother" currently residing in Singapore... I haven't heard from him since Adelynn went into labour and he hasn't been getting much sleep for the past 5 days *due to little Jaimee's nocturnal attributes inherited from her daddy... ^^grin* I finally managed to catch him for a brief moment online to harass him for some photos!

Can't wait to meet her in person... Hope you get better soon and disturb more of your daddy's sleep!

Yet another update...

Hmm... after re-reading my last post I just noticed how fugly the colour combination was... Please forgive me as I was only using one eye and the effects of the general anaesthetics were clouding my judgement on colours thus making me truly colourblind... Enough of that... I have now the full use of both my eyes... *yeay!* Well... almost at least... Its no longer drifting of to one side as you would usually see me do... *apek... too bad hor... cannot make fun of me anymore* And you won't ever have to question again whether I am talking to you or to whatever my other eye was looking at! *hahahaha...* One drawback though... whenever I see anything on my right without moving my head... I see double... *yikes* Now what truly brings me to blog today? Yesterday was the end of my "Beginners Mandarin Conversation" course... We had a test of course... The test consisted of 2 parts... Part 1 is written test of 35 questions... each question is worth 2 marks... Part 2 is an oral t

Tak Ngantuk Pun?... ZzzZZzzZZzzZz

Woke up at 6am today... hit the a button on my mobile and went back to sleep... Luckily I set it to ring again at 6.10am and again at 6.15! hahaha... *always have backups* Why am I up so early you ask? *ye laaa... mas mana reti bangun awal... cheh* This my fren... is because I FINALLY went for the eye surgery to correct my funny eyes! woo hoo! *no I am not high on morphine =P* Since I'm still in pain and so damn bored... I thought I'd update you all about my experience on this... kekeke... *kelakar I tell you* ... Halimy came late... mummy got upset... so we went ahead first... *my mum probably abit more anxious than I am to get it over and done with* My mum selamba jer parked at my aunt's parking space... and up we went to register... If I were to say I wasn't feeling abit wee scared I'd be lying... *but then again... I wasn't really...* Yes... I laugh at the sight of danger and of sorts! Waaaaaaahahahahahhaa... Anyway...

I want to learn mandarin!!!

Okay... so sorry long time never post... hehehe... Actually nothing much has happened since the last entry... Let's see what have I done for the past week... last, last weekend Wesak day i think... I spent some time with Azrina K. and Fazreen F... Well... how do I ignore 15 missed calls? hehe... Sorry girls... They showed up at my door and dragged me out for lunch at T.G.I.F., talked for hours about life and relationships and had a karaoke session at the Curve... That following Sunday mummy wanted to watch a movie so we went to 1Utama to watch Poseidon... Last weekend mummy wanted to watch Da Vinci Code... We couldn't get tickets so we watched it on Monday instead... That's all that's worth mentioning I suppose... which isn't much either... hahaha... Now... why I want to learn mandarin... I wanted to learn a new language for so long already... At first I wanted to learn Korean because of all the Korean soaps that I've been watching I thought that it would be bet

Penang Trip 23rd April 2006

Image
Finally I have uploaded the pictures!!! Last month "The Golden Girls" and I went on a trip to Penang. The purpose? Makan Spree! =P From left to right... Introducing my mum driving, the ultimate mong char char auntie, the not so silent observer and the co-pilot and ultimate kanchiong auntie who is also the banker. We all put in RM100 in the pot to spend on this trip. *Of course mummy paid for me hehe...* Our first stop was breakfast in Ipoh. We all had duck noodles at some coffee shop. The duck was yummy! It was broiled in herbal soup. *No... it was not too early for coke* After breakfast they all HAD to find the "Best in the World" egg tarts from the market and so we parked at the roadside and had them fresh from the oven egg tarts as a snack before lunch? Or was it for dessert? But we just had "Jambu Air"? *What's Jambu Air in english? Red Guava? Water Guava?"* Anyway... we continued driving towards our destination. The golden gals in the back s

"Come See!" What the... What am I? A freak show?

My mum took me to see the eye doctor today... It is abit overdue... about 20 years? Why you ask? Well... we are born with two eyes... when we first get our visions our brain is teaching us how to use the eyes... that's why some infants eyes seemed abit misaligned that's because they are still adjusting... Unfortunately for me... my brain decided to take a short cut... instead of aligning the two eyes to work as one... it decided to just use one at a time... This had made my eyes abit independant... While I see an object with my left eye... my right eye decides to go see something else... The doctor was having fun pointing this out to me... of course I couldn't see it for myself so... Come see... look... see how the eye tries to realign everytime I close different eyes? And this is when my mum and two intern nurses went forward to see me "perform"... What the *toooooot* ... Anyway... after all the laughing and "come do it again" she sent us off to an opth

Change of Environment... Well... Song only... hehe

Well... I like this song... You know from the American Idol? When some one gets kicked out and they show the tribute montage of the person who sucked? Yeah... that's the one... hehehe... Thought I'd share it with you guys... well not that you all suck... LOL! Wait... let me go find you the lyrics... hang on... Here we go... Bad Day - Daniel Powter Where is the moment we need at the most You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost They tell me your blue skies fade to grey They tell me your passion's gone away And I don't need no carryin' on You stand in the line just to hit a new low You're faking a smile with the coffee to go You tell me your life's been way off line You're falling to pieces everytime And I don't need no carryin' on Cause you had a bad day You're taking one down You sing a sad song just to turn it around You say you don't know You tell me don't lie You work at a smile and you go for a ride You had a bad day The camer

I burnt myself vaccuming!

ARGH!!! I was vaccuming the house yesterday with the brand new steam vaccum from OSIM. I guess from the exhaustion of all the work, I wasn't being careful... They weren't kidding when they said it was 120 degrees steam. There I was idly vaccuming each cushion of the living room's upholstery when suddenly... the suction grasp the skin on my right thigh and steamed it as well!!! My reflexes were down so it took me awhile to realise what was happening until I felt the pain... DANG!!! So lesson learnt... Always be alert while vaccuming with a steam vaccum. For now the house is fully steam vaccumed... Fleas are supposed to get themselves killed at the temperature of 40 degrees... if 120 degress don't kill them... I don't know what will! I should get my cats from the vet's soon... Hopefully the remaining flea survivors will try to get their hands on my flea treated cats and get themselves killed in the process... Whole body is aching... Now I'm going to just lie b

WTF!!! FLEAS?!?!?!

The house is infested with cat fleas!!! ARGH!!! At first I thought it was only mosquito bites... Then today... "What's this?" I grabbed one flea trying to figure out what it was and it jumped off me and disappeared!!! WARGH!!! This is the second time my house gets overpopulated by this hardy pesky pests!!! The first was in our Kelana Jaya house and it was so bad that it made my mum cry and we had to call the exterminator and bomb the whole house with insectiside!!! *Ok... I should get a hold of myself... Don't panic...* Yes of course... The first thing that came to mind was... GOOGLE IT!!!... And that's what I did... [search] How to get rid of fleas [endsearch] This is what I found out... Treat the cats Wash all beddings and cushion covers with really hot water Vaccum the whole house and use hot steam to kill the eggs and larvaes... Make flea traps for each room If all fail... call the exterminator The cats are off to the vet while I start my "Exterminate Fl

An update? OMG... The world must be ending soon!

Hahaha... naaahh... Just kidding... It's 2.26 am now... Can't really sleep so thought I'd just compose a quick update just to tickle you guys abit. Guess what? I have finally finished studying!!! Woo hoo!!! Yes... I know it took me sOOooOOoOOoo darn long just to get a degree... *I like to take things and do things in my own time... so sue me* Akak (my sis) welcomed me to the 2-2 club when she got the news... Not bad huh? I really thought that I was going to fail the whole thing or the most a 3rd Class... It's not that I'm dumb... It's just that I'm so darn lazy! Well... That's what I always hear teachers/lecturers say to me growing up anyway... *I still remember my class teacher say to me in form 5 "Mas, awak dapat SAP pun cikgu bangga." (SAP is "Barely Pass" Grade for SPM at the time which is aggregate 45 and above)* Yes I know it took me hmm... let me count... 8 years to get myself a degree! OMG! Hahaha! has it been that long? But I
