What Makes Tummy Happy Other Than Comfort Food?

The last time I went on a Foodscapade, it was kinda worth it. But this time, it was fabulous! Reason being, the 'Qi' around me was very positive and there wasn't external factor hahaha. Went around KL snapping pictures since X'mas is just around the corner. True enough, there were more than just x'mas trees. There were United Bears, lollies, Santarinas and hunks to ease these sore eyes LOL.

There's this place at Lot 10, underground, to be precise. It is like an underground black market selling Chinese food! Can't really remember the name but there are lots of stalls selling food and my eyes immediately darted left and right, searching for tempting food haha. The moment I saw a plate of O-Chien on a customer's table, checked! It was on my list. What's next? Oh, my Hon wanted Kim Lian Kee's Hokkien Mee. It's a really famous restaurant at Petaling Street and the stall is decorated with picture posters of Namewee and that skinny Singaporean actor from the movie 'Petaling Street Warriors'. The Hokkien Mee was great! Only less bits of crispy pork =P

After the Hokkien Mee, came O-Chien. It was ok, not great and it was a bit pricey too. So he saw a vendor going around with a piece of menu that says 'Pork Satay' and he ordered 6 sticks. It was expensive! RM12++ for 6 sticks?? But it was kinda okay, not bad =) Then it was my turn to order something. I went to buy 'Pak Kor Fu Chuk' as dessert and it was only RM3.90. Not bad but I think I'm used to eating 'Fu Chuk' in curry and salty dishes. So eating it sweet was a little bit weird =P

Later after watching movie, my tummy felt bloated and I kept dropping the F-Bomb non-stop. As I was walking, I'm sure I left a trail of it wherever I went. It was all the raw garlic's fault. My tummy will be gassy whenever I take raw garlic. It tastes great but the aftermath would be that people might just die of inhaling natural gas hahaha. It was a great day and I'm looking forward for more!

*To appreciate food is by enjoying it*

Share, Care, Love.

Finally, I own a fopai of a very powerful warrior - Khun Phaen. I admired his story and now I'm proud to have him with me - blessing and protecting me all the time. I told my Sensei to get one for myself because I felt the need to protect myself from unfortunate incidents and those little people (Xiao Ren) around me. Call me superstitious but I believe in Him and He will protect me.

I went to KLCC last week and it will not be a worth while trip if I don't go to Marks & Spencer. I bought a box of biscuits for my parents because X'mas is just around the corner. Though I'm not celebrating but the colors (green, red and white) make me feel as if CNY is just around the corner too. These are the colors of happiness and hope! =) And so I bought *okay hopefully i get the name right haha* 'Belgian Chocolate covered Pear and Orange Flavored Biscuit' LOL. I thought the flavor might taste funny but who cares, it something unusual =) Hopefully Mom and Dad will love it. I make it a once-a-month thing to send one item back, as a way to share my happiness with them. Not that Miri has anything fancy. So they can proudly add these food to their resume LOL.

Also, I persuaded my Hon to buy himself a perfume from Marks & Spencer. I've been eying on that perfume that last time I went there. Without much effort, he bought it =P He has been obsessed with the idea of being an Alpha male. Duh! An Alpha only exists in Twilight hahaha. Yeah whatever, go be an Alpha male, just don't attract 'houseflies' ok, Hon? I won't hesitate to smack them *evil grin*.

I'm also hoping that I can get myself a new smart phone cos my Sony Ericsson is dying. I can't save the pictures that I took and I guess my fingers are getting old, they refused to type messages as fast as they used to hahaha. A good excuse to get one, huh..

With all the Love that I have, I would like to say 'Happy reading & spread the Love' to my 3 readers? Hahaha. Yes I only have 3 readers I guess. Bye!

Double-sided Coin

When was the last time you've ever felt heartbroken? It sucks, doesn't it? Yes everyone will experience it some day in their lives. And for me, I've experienced it numerous times. What's the latest one, you might ask? Issues will always be different but one crucial thing remains the same - hurting my parents (emotionally).

It's like a tsunami hitting again and yet again. This time, it will bound to change our family structure for the rest of our lives - more for my parents. I was really depressed and tensed up for the past few weeks due to some idiotic workload, studies that involve numbers that don't make sense and also from this piece of shit. I will have to bear with it for the rest of my life. Yes, someday I will have to embrace it, but how? I would have to force myself to do it, knowing how stubborn I am.

Flashes of images popped up in my mind when I was told of the news. It will involve many people whom we don't know and I know it's going to be hard for my parents to deal with it. How can a person not think of the consequences before plunging into something big? I mean, I use the word 'Big' because it's not something to be taken lightly. Will my mother suffer because she might probably be forced to take care of the 'thing'? Will my father have to deal with 'it' because he has to? These are not images that I would want to have in my mind.

I need time to digest all these. Time will not heal but it will numb the pain.

Happy Thoughts

A lot have happened since I last blogged and I'm glad all went as planned. First and foremost, my ROM has been smooth, thanks a bunch to my family and my wonderful buddies who made it to my lunch reception. In fact, I felt like a celebrity for a couple of hours LOL. I had been having these images in my head as to how things would turn out to be and believe me, I would crap my pants out just thinking about it =P

Next, I had so much fun (minus the part where I can't shop till I drop due to financial constraints) shopping for books at the BBW sale. I think I spent around RM1XX and I was happy because I got some books for my mother and my Godson too =) A little bit of love goes the long way. And the aftermath sale will be next month and I believe this time I'll have enough money to slap the Big Bad Wolf in the face and get away with a lot of books! Hahahahaha. I wasn't so happy because I would spend more than RM200 if I could. The sad thing was, I couldn't afford it. But it's still okay. Managed to fill up the top shelf with my books.

Other than these two things, I don't know what else can make me happy other than reading =) Reading is such an intense activity which is great for our brains! I'm having vivid scenes that watching movies alone will not provide the same effects. I can read for hours but my eyes will eventually weigh down as the day closes in. I would encourage people to invest in books that will broaden their horizon and perspectives on the world and life. Experiences can only do so much. Why not see life from another person's perspective?

Taste the Juice of Victory

I'm all hyped up because my creativity juices which flowed from my brain eventually landed me a pair of tickets to the biggest book sale in the world. How freaking awesome is that? Hahahahaha. I seriously couldn't believe it at first after seeing so many postings by a whole lot of people. I kept thinking - 'Shit! So many good stories. I don't think I'll win'. I kept my fingers crossed, hidden inside my pants under my butt because even hoping it will work scared the shit out of me. So the deadline finally came and there wasn't any signs of victory hahaha. Few days later when I opened my mail box, I was nearly thrown off my chair when I saw the email that they sent me =)

So I still believe writing, or creative writing is my cup of (green) tea hahaha. Also, I'm in the midst of doing my project paper. Hopefully my creative juices will help me pour out some long-winding facts for my research. I need words!

Okay you can check this link out. Link to the proof of my victory is just a 'click' away. LOL.

http://bigbadwolfbooks.com/blog/wolf-tales-contest-the-winning-tales/

The first piece of story, named San Ling is mine. I actually submitted a few stories (can say kiasu la hahaha) so I had to use different names. And the combination of OUR names actually landed me those tix!! Happy reading =)

Mirror Mirror on the Wall, who's the fairest of them all?

I'm all set to go for a facial treatment for the very first time in my life! LOL. We have these vouchers, courtesy of Amex and we're going for a face-pampering session this coming weekend. I've realized that I'm into Health & Beauty lately and believe me, I feel good haha. I've been able to control my eating habits that was once uncontrollable. And I've been eating vegetarian dishes more often than before =) And since the discovery of MyDeal, I've been targeting beauty packages and they are really cheap. Perhaps one of these days I should buy some and pamper my skin =) Since women age faster than men, I'd better do something before it happens to me =P

Alone in the Rain

I am no better than a muted child
Not even the tears of pearls can soften hearts
Cries are muffled by harsh criticisms
Words that will never reach the canals
My eyes are speaking but
Sadly only canines show mercy and sympathy
The heart that was hardened by a ghost whisperer
Has no rhythm that was once melodic
Steer me towards serenity, steer me towards happiness
That was once there.

Preps

It is the time of the year again when I'll be cracking my head, raking for pieces of ideas to be put onto papers. My classes will commence soon and so does my ROM. I've no idea as to what to prepare and so I anticipated. So far things have been going as planned and to be honest, I'm just looking forward to a good time with my family and friends catching up with one another over a simple lunch. I've sort of made the necessary arrangements and hopefully things will work out. What's more important than food anyway? No one will remember how the setting is like or how sunny the day might be. People will always remember how the food is like.

So I was browsing through the internet and I came across this restaurant which serves exquisite vegetarian dish. I was jumping up and down on my seat when I found it. Why?

1. The restaurant was featured in Ho-Chak in 2009.
2. It's not the average typical vegetarian restaurant; but it has some Tibetan flavors to it.
3. My friends can enjoy the food without the slightest concern that it might contain meat =P

So up next, I'll be driving around looking for a dress to rent. Don't bother buying because I might not wear it LOL.

Touch-me-Not

I took the road less travelled by
And that has opened doors to many choices in life,
I traversed , I stumbled, I tripped
I fell, I tumbled , I rolled,
I laid upon dirt with a queer-looking plant
Looking back at me,
What are you? I asked,
'Touch-me-not' *whispered*
I jumped and I asked again,
What are you?
'Touch-me-not'
I touched and it all closed,
It reopened upon my tears rolling down my cheek
Did it understand my sadness?
I got up and continue walking
Thanking 'Touch-me-not' for showing me the way.

Heart of a Heart

My Heart has a heart of its own.

My Heart disagrees with my Brain often.

My Heart speaks faster than my Mouth.

My Heart thinks faster than my Brain.

My Heart is not in good terms with my Brain and my Mouth.

When my Brain thinks and my Mouth speaks, my Heart suffers.

When my Mouth speaks what my Heart feels, other Hearts will break.

What shall I do to make my Heart work together with my Brain and my Mouth?

Save and Spend

When was the last time I posted something with a slightly sunny mood?

I can't remember. Never mind! I've something really important to share with you. I'm sure some of you have heard of this MyDeal thingy. It's an online promo with vouchers that you can buy. Believe me, you can save up to 70% on products or services that you like!

I've bought TGV tickets which cost RM8 each. So after doing some successful calculations, I actually saved up to RM5 when I used that ticket on a Friday night, which usually cost RM13 -.-'' *sweating*

Just yesterday I bought vouchers for Ireland Potato for RM6.90 instead of RM13.80 for fries, mashed potato or onion rings and drink! Fuh! I've been torturing myself, just sniffing the aroma of potatoes when I pass by that shop. I can now proudly walk in and purchase something that I can afford LOL.

Phew! Speaking of saving, I barely earn enough to save. So as pathetic as it may sound, I'm constantly looking out for vouchers and freebies to win so that I don't have to fork out any money. And lately, I don't know if I'm running out of luck or intelligence. I didn't win any contest in GSC!

So sign up for newsletters or membership at www.mydeal.com.my and enjoy more savings plus loads of fun!

Ups and Downs

Blue birds,
Red birds,
Yellow birds,
Black birds,
White birds,
and piggies.

I feel like one of those green piggies in Angry birds being thrown stones at. Except for the fact that I'm innocent and my intentions are always for the benefit of the people around me.

Whenever I light up a match, people will burn the whole forest down.
Whenever I share my food, people will finish up everything.
Whenever I speak, people will finish my sentence with their ideas.
Whenever I'm down, people will step on me even more.
Whenever I'm happy, people will find ways to turn that smile upside down.
Whenever I'm moody, people will say I'm temperamental.
Whenever I'm being helpful, people say it's disadvantaging to myself.

Rain, come wash away my pain.
Wind, come blow these negativities away.
Sun, strengthen my determination with your heat.
Earth, grow a tree for me to lean on when I'm down.

Everchanging

Trust, betrayal.
Hope, disappointment.
Happiness, sadness.
Truthful, dishonest.
Right, left...wrong?

Our lives is dichotomous. Like the surface of a coin; we have the head and the tail. What if we are going to experience the two elements? One might be positive and one might be negative. What if we're currently experiencing the positive things and the negative things will surely, or maybe come our way one day? I never thought of any emergency moments in my life but I have to start planning for Plan Bs for everything. Yes, I thought I wasn't planning but I am actually planning for Plan Bs should anything unfortunate happens.

Since when have I been very sceptical about my current situations? I didn't even know. Perhaps it comes naturally with age =P Carrie Underwood's song 'Temporary Home' reminds me that everything in this world is just temporary. Yes, everything we own in this world is ours here on earth but when we die, we will have to leave it to someone else. Hence, having good karma is crucial. Ever since I was able to earn my own money, I realized that money is important in every possible way. So I began sharing with the people around me in a subtle way. I help them in any way I can. If money can solve their problems and make them happy, and I get good karma, why not?

And then I came to realize that I shared too much. Yes, it's time to put some aside for future usage. I have to learn to be smart because not knowing how to count apparently puts me at the bottom of the list. I have to take charge of my own future. Nothing can remain the same forever.

I Needed a Slap

I experienced something totally bizarre yesterday! And for the first time ever, when money is concerned, my heart speaks ahead of my brain. Yes, my spontaneity surprised me to the core. I actually said 'Yes' to my colleague's offer to join them to Siem Reap next year. What was I thinking? Well I still remember distinctly that my heart and brain were battling against each other and Bam! my heart prompted my mouth to just say yes. I was battling with my desires to go overseas to have a little vacay and I think that's the main reason why.

Only minutes after that, reality and realization slapped me hard across the face and I was thinking what would my Hon think? Ah, never mind. I'm good in persuading LOL. Thanks to Air Asia for offering cheap flight tickets, now everyone can fly and I can afford to fly somewhere further hahaha. I seriously didn't know where Siem Reap is. I thought it must be somewhere around Vietnam and Cambodia or Laos. And yes it is in northwest of Cambodia. I'm going to Angkor region! Great, now I can go to one of those Angkor Wat and perhaps get myself some Buddha relics.

As I'm typing away, I'm also awaiting the American Idol results. Checking my Twitter every 10 seconds for updates. It's so happening (though I'm not watching it but the tweets are actually performing LOL) right now! I can't wait. Will my Lauren win? OMG it's so torturing, waiting for results which is just a few minutes away. I got to calm myself down. Happy reading =)

~Yeeha~ Siem Reap, here I come!

Enlightenment

So great His name is,
So great His teachings are,
So great His followers are.

Having stared at Buddha's eyes put me to shame over what I've desired, wished and accomplished so far. He who had Everything had left everything behind in the pursuit of Enlightenment. Can life be as simple as it's supposed to be? Yes.

I visited a Buddhist temple in Brickfields over the weekend for Wesak Day. The place was full of people, Chinese and Indians. And it was crowded everywhere. It was a let down for me as I couldn't offer anything to Buddha; so I knelt down in front of Him and prayed instead. As I was leaving the place, I came across a booth selling books. A small maroon book caught my attention. I picked it up and started flipping through it. It was the Buddha Daily Devotions book. More of a holy book with chantings in Pali for various events. I was overjoyed! Without hesitations, I paid for it and started reading it. It has powerful chantings that Thai monks chant too.

Without delay, I started reading and chanting certain verses and I must admit, as usual, I felt calm and peaceful. His birth, His enlightenment and His passign is truly an occasion to be celebrated with a truthful heart, body and soul.

Amitofo.

A Gift.

Mother's Day is just a few days' away and already I'm cracking my head thinking hard what to get for my mother. There has been a few suggestions, all coming from me hehe. First, maybe get her something from Skin Food. Just because I love my skin so I assume my mother will have to take good care of her skin too. Second, Astro. This can be a Mother's day & Father's Day gift too. Third, something from Face Shop. Come to think of it, it is a really difficult decision to make. Skin care is a really good choice but she's a bit lazy when it comes to applying stuff on her face. So we're still thinking hard!

Any suggestions on what to give as a Mother's Day gift? @.@

Fleur de Lys

Yes, after months of working like a cow, I finally get to pamper myself by rewarding myself with my dream perfume few weeks ago. It was the big durian runtuh time of the year so immediately, I thought of that perfume. How sad is that? Okay, the name of the perfume is (hang on, quite a long name) Princesse Marina De Bourbon Paris - Fleur de Lys. Well it means the scent of lily flower.

I was hooked onto this smell months ago when a girl from Sasa sprayed it on a strip and gave it to me. It has a very light flowery plus a bit of citrus smell to it. And needless to say, I can't stop admiring how I smell like when I'm using it LOL. In fact, I do feel sexy =P (my hypothesis is that there is a correlation between the use of perfume and self-esteem LOL... whatever).

So pamper yourself by going for whatever you like. Money can be earned so we cannot forsake our present happiness for something that we know is endless. Hahaha a very consoling statement. My next target is products from Skin Food. My skin really need some nutrition.

Viva la vida!

And the Oscar Goes to... NSN!!

Upon hearing a sweet voice serenading, I fell in love immediately and that talented one is none other than Justin Bieber. Yes, this is the second blog about him but who cares, I'm so into him right now. I finally get to watch his NSN 3D movie and it's by far my favorite documentary film in my life. Though the film is about how he was discovered and counting down the days when he will be performing at the great Madison Square Garden, it all blend in very nicely and I wasn't disappointed even for a split second. It's even better than MJ's 'This Is It' film. I was all teary throughout the whole show and I believe it will happen to you as well.

I strongly recommend anyone who's an anti-beliber to go watch that film and perhaps it can cleanse your evil thoughts about him. Seriously, why hate him so much? He's dead gorgeous and so adorable. Even the Obama's kids love him! Jonas Brothers, you've been kicked down the drain. So get your ass off the chair and go enjoy the film.


I'm a Belieber.

True Belieber

I'm down with Belieber fever.

I've been tracking his whereabouts since yesterday, keeping my eyes glued to Twitter and updates on Facebook and YouTube. What more, tweets on updates saying that tickets are running out pretty soon. Well, I can afford the cheapest ticket, or the slightly more expensive ones but no one (I mean Him) wants to go with me. My heart sank with every tweet updates on BB.

BB's performing tonight but I'll be at home watching American Idol while my mind drifts away imagining how his concert will be like. I'm a fan of JB ever since I realized that I can do my hair like his. Now that he cut his hair short, he looks even better, in fact, more handsome!

I was reading this blog from a columnist of a local paper and boy, and can you beliebe it? Men are actually denying that the fact that they capital A-D-O-R-E JB. There's this 'Oh he's just a kid', 'I think he lip-syncs', 'He dances like a drunk', 'But I was impressed because the girls all love him!' Oh for God's sake. How terrible can they be? Admit it, JB is a talented person who's inching his way up to the top. In fact, his songs are to die for. Who else sings with Rascal Flatts? JB of course.

Whatever it is, I'm so going to watch his movie. I'm giving him my fullest support and LOVE =)

Anatomy Lessons

I'm sitting comfortably on my chair with the air-cond softly humming above my head. Birds flying and chirping happily, perhaps singing too. It feels like I'm in a village. Nope, I'm in my office. At this time of the semester, it's still peaceful and quiet. My favorite time of the semester.

I've accomplished something over the past two weeks where I finally got my Dan upgraded. I've never been so proud of myself; though the guys there intimidated me but I believe I'm a great karateka. Of course, accomplishments come with a price too. I spent few hundreds for that grading just to get a piece of paper that the whole world recognizes. That's okay. This is a long term investment.

Recently, I've been a little bit obsessed with self-defense techniques. Yes, karate is indeed a martial art that I'm practicing but in terms of self-defense, I'm still way behind others. So I've been youtube-ing videos on techniques that one can apply in various compromising situations. So I've chosen a few martial arts like Wing Chun, Aikido and karate. I believe one needs to know how to defend within the shortest distance and also long distance. Hence, our arms and legs are our weapons, not only to coordinate our movements, but also to protect ourselves.

Women and children are always the victim of abuse in many ways. So knowing a little bit about self-defense is also a good thing because it might save your life.

OSU!

Returning to the Earth

The Sun takes it place behind the clouds. The breeze touches every non-living & living things. The birds stopped singing & insects stop fighting. Your warriors marched like never before, weeping & as if walking in vacuum. Time stands still but hearts still beat for you. Pictures of you shall forever be played in their minds; aching with every yearning to hug and to hold you in their arms.

Devil has reaped a flower off its stem. Injustice has reaped you off your family & friends. Sinful desires has reaped the life out of you. Lord, have mercy upon this departed soul who never deserved to be taken away at such an early hour. Bless her family with endless strength so they can hold on to a crumbled fort. Angles, guide them so that they can be of peace in mind.

Beastly makes the weakest feature in a man camouflaged by so-called strength. Hunters are all out to hunt you down; to reap you into pieces to be fed to dogs. You are not worthy even to the weakest being on this earth. Memories & spirit shall haunt you for the rest of your bloody life & may it fuck your mind up & make you a crazy animal. Eyes will be lurking in every corners & crevices; waiting for every chance to take on you. You just checked in to Hell. Say 'Hello!', Hell resident #4444.

The Flower That Never Blossomed

L.O.V.E.

These four letter words are very powerful & I'm sure that at one point in everyone's life, one will experience it. My questions are: What is Love? How do you Love someone? What do you do when you Love someone?

Love takes many forms & it could be sweet or it could be dangerous. I'm mourning the death of a sweet young girl who was murdered last week (I don't know exactly when). As I was browsing through her Facebook page which was set up by a group of friends, I couldn't help but to shed some tears thinking of how she must have suffered. I somehow felt that I'm connected to her; maybe because she was a friend of my brother's, she was from Miri or because she was the ONLY child.

Apparently her BORN-OUT-OF-WEDLOCK-BEASTLY-BLOODY-CRUEL-BOYFRIEND tried to rape her. She tried to fight back & somehow he must have been furious & strangled her. He then dumped her body at another area in the bush. Can you imagine how this heinous act went completely unnoticed by the public? No one actually saw them, or what he did! Lord have mercy! His father (not biological father) took him to the police station to turn him in. You just checked in to Hell, you beast!

She seemed to be a lovely, happy-go-lucky young lady, normal teenager who believed that she can go through dating & relationships. But who knows her life ended because of it. How ironic! The saddest part that struck me the most was that she just took her SPM results. She must have plans laid out for her future.

Hundreds of people including her friends attended her funeral & I can imagine how dark and sombre the atmosphere was. I can't help but to think that women, girls & children should be exposed & educated when it comes to self-defense. The best way is always to run & call for help. I have a mission - that is to create awareness among women, girls & children. To enlighten them, to teach them.

Human beings come in many packages & what lies inside the heart & mind is always unknown. God bless Tiffany.

Morning Dose of Adrenaline

Fear factor.

What's your fear factor? I'll tell you mine.

As I reached my office today, I turned on the lights & the air-cond as usual. Then I rubbed my nose using the back of my thumb & noticed a dark spot on the back of my hand. I thought it was the writing that my Hon had scribbled on the back of my hand the day before. That was strange... It was gone yesterday!

So I took a good look at it & to my freaking surprise, it was a black baby lizard!! Aaahhh! I shook it off my hand and the only word that I could think of was FUCK. Yes, FUCK that lizard for jump starting my heart early in the morning. For a moment, I felt gross and ticklish all over, thinking of the germs on the back of my hand. Damn you, loser post-dinosaur-descendants!

So I took my hand wash & headed straight to the toilet. I pushed the door open and there stood a white apparition in white!! I was shocked for the second time & I was pissed. Upon realization, it was a damn lecturer dressed in white & worst thing was she didn't turn on the lights -.-

My heart is still beating fast as I'm typing, thinking that some lizards might be lurking in the dark corners of my office & waiting to attack me. FUCK.

@#%&* May you extinct from the face of the Earth soon, cicaks.

What Melts in Your Mouth.... other than...

Now that I've tasted you, I want more!
You are yellow, you are smooth, te amo,
Sometimes you're watery, sometimes gooey,
Just the thought of you makes me boogey.

You taste special, smooth and creamy,
I don't mind you splashed on to me,
Hey readers, mind you, I'm not horny,
Just a lil description on this sexy, creamy baby.

Food critics said it's like sex in the mouth,
I'd say Ouch! it's more than that!

Hello food lovers! I've just described my latest fetish for Dhal hahaha. I know it's common, and that it's nothing more than Dhal beans but somehow I'm hooked. I just ate bowls of it the other day when I ate a piece of Vadai and a piece of cekodok pisang. I know it's weird eating vadai and cekodok pisang with Dhal. And I even suggested to a friend that she should try adding some butter or some cream to make it smoother, creamier and rich! Oh man, I'm salivating as I'm typing!! Got to go!

Food for Thought

Do we eat to live, or live to eat?

I believe in both =)

Lately I've been enjoying too much good food with my F4 colleagues that I actually overspent =P Food is truly a blessing in our lives. I just bought Ham Chim Peng after lunch, despite being full after a plate full of vegetables and a delicious bowl of soup. I can never imagine myself being hungry even for a while.

Just yesterday, we went to Amcorp Mall for work purposes and we went to a restaurant which serves Chinese food. Needless to say, I've got my eyes hooked on the word 'Fish' because it's my favorite dish. So we all ordered and were chatting away. Soon, everyone got their food, including the tables around us who came later than us. I was pissed. It was 1 something and my tummy was rumbling of hunger!

I beckoned on the waiter and he came over. Without even realizing it, I was actually raising my voice when I asked him about my food. And I think I sounded kinda harsh too. My colleagues were staring in me, shocked that I scolded the waiter @.@

Whatever!! My food was soon served and I wasn't enjoying it as I expected. Now that I'm salivating while typing, I think I'm gonna eat my Ham Chim Peng now.

Long live Food!! Yum~ Yum~

Why Do We Have 2 Ears?

You'll never realize you have shit on your face until you take a good at yourself in the mirror. Human beings are imperfect creatures and they will never realize their wrong-doings until someone tells them. Their desires, passion, goals and positivity seems to be the drive behind the motivations. Recently I've been wasting my saliva advising and nagging away but it all breezed through ears just like that. Time will prove things the way they're supposed to be. I guess I also got tired of nagging all the time too.


~So much for the two ears. They are like tunnels~

Historical Pages

This is my first time blogging using my new PC ^^

Not entirely new, not the monitor. How pathetic is it that it must have these fine lines that made looking at the screen painful? I called the hotline (luckily it's free) and they said they'll send someone to collect it in these few days =(

I've been planning, drafting and writing on my Pages for years now. And I got myself a co-author nearly 4 years ago. So now it's no longer called my Pages, but our Pages XD

We're about to write the story of our lives and it's gonna be a hit for our readers. The sales is gonna be low for now but I'm sure (and hope!!) that is gonna be a #1 hit in like 2 years' time.

Time has been joyful kicking my ass since January! I was loaded with lots of things but I have very little time to manage them. Now that the semester is coming to an end, I hope I'll have time to collect the bits and pieces of me everywhere LOL.

<3

Signed In

Why did I sign up for all this mess? It is now called a mess because it's messy and I'm all messed up and I'm lost in this mess! I begin to question the path that I'm taking now and I know that I can only go forward, no U-turns. Life is full of unnecessary material things like a Master's Degree, a so-called famous job and being established. What's the point of having all these? MONEY. Yes that ka-ching that makes people slave themselves doing stupid things. I'm tired of all these. Just this morning, I told Hon that I'm tired of all these things. I do not get to enjoy my 20s. How sad is that? Oh wait suddenly 'Paul's Case' pops into my mind. Shit. Don't want to be like him. I want to happily earn some money and go traveling during the break. How hard is that? Yes, it's hard for me considering the peanut pay that I'm earning and the huge amount of workload knocking on my door, tapping on my table, sitting on my chairs... aaaaahhhh! I want some peace. How? Not sure. Buy a new gadget maybe. MP3, laptop, ipad Hahaha.

@$#&^* How do I sign out?

Surreal

I have unfinished business and here I am, finding time to blog about something. Whee~~ I think I'm losing track of time and day and almost everything that seems important but not really important things to me. I'm actually paying my friend to do my assignment for me this semester. How pathetic is that! Sometimes we have to find ways to make things work.

CNY is almost coming to an end, tomorrow's Chap Goh Mei, also Chinese V-Day. It's going to be a really ordinary and dull day for me cos I'll be having a test that evening. Maybe I can have a happy and sweet lunch with my Hon! Kakaka.

I had a mysterious and surreal encounter the day I came back to KL. An old man of about 60 approached me. He was trying to strike a conversation with me. And I really tried my best to ignore him, but he still kept on talking. Of all people... why me? Don't know why. So he was yapping away about his children and hometown. So I got to know that he's from Kuching and a businessman in Brunei. The freakiest thing was that he said that he wanted to make me his god-daughter. Holy shit! For real? You're just a bloody stranger! So I just laughed and jokingly told him to tell my father. Sheesh! So we went into the waiting area and he asked me to look after his bag while he went to the toilet. I said ok. Silly, right? There might be something bad inside that bag!

So he came out... finally. And he sat two seats next to me. He handed me an angpow. I was shocked. I know I'm not supposed to feel so but I was! I said no... and he insisted. He said it's still CNY. I said no and he insisted. It happened for a while and a few people sitting across us were looking. So out of Paise-ness, I took it and said thanks. Many things crossed my mind when I took the angpow. First, what was he thinking? Second, was he expecting anything in return? Third, how could he assumed that I'm his god-daughter now? I didn't even said yes.

So before boarding, I went to the toilet and out of curiosity, I checked the angpow. I opened it. Eh? Not Agong's head. A Chinese man's head. RMB? Don't know. So I pulled it out and it was a Singapore Dollar. $50! I was shocked. That's equivalent to a hundred plus! So I went out and acted normal. Bla bla bla, we arrived and he went off.

The whole event seems like a puzzle. I really don't know what was he thinking. Could it be just a friendly approach or was there something sinister? Hmm...

Happy Chine$e New Year

It's 2 days before CNY and here I am in my office loading ANTM & GLEE while doing some marking. This place seems haunted! It's so quiet and peaceful and only 2 or 3 souls are walking around. I like!! The horrible sight and terrible stench of those students are finally gone for at least a week hahaha. While watching my fave dramas, I'm munching on cashew nuts that I bought last week. And for a split moment, it brought me back to the time when I'll stuff myself with food round the clock - CNY time. I'm looking forward for a CNY loaded with food to eat and my aim is to finish my other people's food as well LOL.

Finally the Sun is out after a few days of hiding behind those clouds. So I'm putting my slipper outside my office to sun it. When was the last time I did that? Hmm... never. It's a good day to take a walk outside and I'm going to do that in a few minutes - walk to the toilet as slowly as I possibly can to take all the Vit D in.

Have a joyful Chine$e New Year everyone. May u$ all be ble$$ed with lot$a *Ka Ching*

1 out of 100%

My mind is messed up due to so many things related to work. This is your fault, stupid work!! So currently i'm walking, talking, eating and working like a zombie. I'm here but my mind is still trailing behind me. So this explains my freaky behavior:

1. I only get 10% of what people discuss in a conversation.
2. I only register a few words in a long winded conversation.
3. I respond a few seconds later after a person has finished talking.
4. My dark circles make me look more like a panda.
5. I have pims popping out everyday.
6. I'm trying to get the feeling back (eating pork happily).
7. I don't want to spend too much time at home.
8. I'm grumpy, cranky, nasty.
9. I can only understand what my friends are talking about if it's not academic and work stuff.
10. I cancel my lectures just to finish my work and assignments and vice versa.

Hopefully i'll be back to normal when i come back after CNY. @.@

Moisturizing Birthday

My birthday this year was so peaceful!! Not that i dislike it but i like it be full of surprises. Anyway, my best friend from F4, CCC came over to KL for her weekend getaway and we met too. I was happy because we only get to meet whenever she comes over to KL for shopping. She handed me a small paperbag with something inside and said it's for my birthday. Interesting! It was kinda heavy. So i said i'll open it at home. That evening when i opened it, i was dumbfounded. It's an aqua moisturizing gel from Korea! I was kinda sad that she has to fork out some money for that. I guess she must have bought it last year when she went there. Apa lagi i started using it that night. It has essence of ginseng but when i apply on my face and neck, it doesn't smell like one. Surprisingly. I googled the gel online and found that the brand is quite established in Korea. I guess she must have figured out that my skin's condition is getting worse =( Thanks a lot Dear for your Love hohoho.

^^ F4, I miss u guys.

Shutting Down

Happy new year!

As happy as the phrase might sound, I'm not in my best spirit these days. Workload has been raining on me non-stop and seriously, I'm losing grasp of everything. Like waves that hit the shore hard, my mood swings come and go as they like without warning. Every single thing annoys me to the core. I begin hating questions and requests because I'm helpless and I can do nothing to fulfill their demand. And what's worst is that people never stop asking for something from me. It all take different forms and shapes and sizes but the impact is real deep. I stop responding to all requests. I stop talking. I stop thinking. I stop having soft spots for the needy. I stop being a good person until I decide to become one again. I just stop. Zilch!

I guess it's time to change the course of life and take on what I've never done before. As crazy as it sounds, other people's problems change me. They are idiots and that taught me to be smarter. You're caught in a maze with me, confused and lost. What I will do is to run, find the way out and to forever leave you behind. There will be no more holding your hands leading you towards the light. If there is any light, it will be the light at the end of the tunnel that leads to you-know-where.
