1 week she'll be away

yes my mum's dissapearing ... again.... this time for nearly a week... said she'll be going to Ipoh for her friends b'day or something.... i guess she's just tired staying at home (without a car to use)...

and this weekend... the business is closed.. for once.. NO ONE needs to go to work!! and when we come back on monday (which is actually a public holiday for Malaysia) we are getting 3x!!! yeay!!!

there was a plan to meet the Lim family (without the father actually) on Sunday... but the plan is not confirmed... if its cancelled.. damn i have the whole weekend to do nothing!! LOVELY isn't it!!!... i guess it'll give me the chance to go shopping for me cousin... wat to buy ahh???

i guess i'll catch up with the book i'm half way reading.... catch up on my mails and friendster at home (yea.. can't surf those at work).... and can catch up on my SLEEP... yesss... sleep......

wonder if anyone wants to join me for some thani.... hmmm....

my hair took 2 weeks to grow 2 inches... and THAT'S alot man..... can see the difference!!! and it's no use colouring my hair cause after growing that 2 inches u can see my "original" hair colour (black or white hair ... i leave u to guess).. sigh....

mum has been baking... she was making meat pies, apple (fruit) pie, crumbles..... fuhh... see what happens to a mother when u take away her car? LOL hahhahahaHAHAHHAhhahahaha... i'm evil isn't it... THAT IS WHY i'm saving every penny i have to get a car ASAP!!

my baby is fat.... yes.... he has this tummy which is like being pregnant 2 months old which i haven't seen before in my life with him... and i do not like it.... u know.. when i met him 5 years ago.. he had this lovely 6 pacs?! now... hmmpphh since he already got me, he not bothered.. tht's wat he told me!! can u believe it... anyway, he said he has 2 phases... one phase is where he eats like a glut, then the second phase he doesn't.... so now he is in the glut-eating phase... how long it'll last.. i don't know.... sigh... looks like i better stop introducing him to NICE food on our dates.. heheheh let him stick to moy and noodles... heheheh..... such a bad gf uh?

she

says it's nothing.....

are u

dependant?

u know when i started this job... i told myself... go and make friends, if u can't clique with anyone, fine.. as long u do your job properly, smile at ppl, be nice to everyone... u'll be fine....

so i came to work, i made friends and did my job... but after a while, u get close to a few.... never knew i depended on them until they stop "layaning" u.... it's different when they go on leave, u know they'll be still the same "gila" ppl they are when they come back... but when they STOP being "gila" with u, that's when u see the real picture...

i'm thinking it might be something i said (that might have offended her...) or something i did... maybe she's just having a bad time... who knows.... or maybe i'm just OVERLY paranoid that she's not as "cheery" as usual... the thing is she DO talk to other ppl... but somehow just don't talk to me... she does when i talk to her.. but that's about it... she used to just say/make a comment to me... now... nothing...

sigh.... am i paranoid?? if not, is she mad at me? if she is, i really want to know what i did.... cause i want to apologize.. but how would i know if she's not talking to me? takkan i was to ask her right?!

so the question is... are u dependant on someone at work... if u are, do u feel lost, do u feel something is wrong/missing somewhere... what would u do if suddenly that person isn't the same towards u.....

...sigh....

have u...

felt like someone is talking behind your back or that someone is ignoring u?

u think back on what happened in the morning... was your usual snapping had finally put her off? is she just moody today... or am i just over paranoid... she's fine with the rest but seem to ignore me.... sigh....

i guess it's just one of those days when u don't feel like talking to some specific ppl uh....

what would u do? would u pester... "eh y so quiet today?" or just sit and shut the fuck up.. she talks to u, fine... don't talk to u, fine ....

sigh.....

on a lil road trip

it was half an ad-hoc plan for this road trip.... it was supposed to be either next weekend or the next few weekends in May... BUT.. everyone will be busy those weekends so the next free weekends was last week...

what we did?

we went to Jitra for Thai Seafood and came back...

yups... no staying over in Alor Setar or Jitra... just purely drove all the way there, eat and drove all the way back... we're pigs isn't it...

ANYWAY.... we did this is because of my beloved cousin's b'day! yes.. her birthday is supposed to be on the 1st of May but everyone is busy on that day AND also the weekends around it so, we decided to have this makan WAY earlier....

so we had hot hot hot tom yam, brains (otak-otak), kerabu mango and tanghun, chicken and also a birthday cake for desert!! yummers... must go back there again!!!

now u know why we call her Blur Dugong?

aawww

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

cousins

groupies

time pass so fast

indeed it has....

had an email from jobstreet saying that my contract has been renewed... man.. it had me thinking that it's been 8 months since i started work, i didn't know it was THAT long.... yes others has been working 20++ years, and me.... just out from college and it's been 8 months i've been working...

then there's the other bout age.. was talking to a friend and we were talking about clots in our periods... i remember a college friend saying that it was bad to have lots of clots... she said it's not normal and needed to see the docs about it.. she did and she had some meds to reduce the clots.... and when she got married and tried to have kids, she had 2 miscarriages!! OMG!! that's what my mum told me.. though she said she have clots but she says it's normal.. but she DID have miscarriages! and i DO have clots!! sigh....

and come to think of it, i'll reach the old-but-still-young age soon.. in like 5 years time!!! and i'm no where NEAR in getting married!! don't talk about kids.... am soooo not ready man!!!! i know i shouldn't be bugging myself about this... even my parents are not hinting for grandkids yet.. but i know my mum is waiting for me to leave the hse (which means, get married and leave the hse la...) hahahha everyone will think this is pressure to HIM.. but actually it is ALSO to me...

so yea... getting older... still on contract.... no car to call my own.... though i do have a bf to call my own.. but.... hmm.... i guess i still need to go slowly.... and someone did tell me that time will tell, my BREAK will come and that i don't need to go looking for it (though 1/2 the time we should GO after it...) it's like finding a bf... u'll get one when u're not looking but u can't 100% put this scenario to a job, to a career.... right?!

i know some will say i'm in my PMS now... maybe i am.. maybe i'm not.... so many factors are just hanging around me... some it's for me to take action, some it's just simply starring in my face, some are just rubbish but i still want to keep it because i'm "sentimental" and have the "what if" attitude.... or maybe i'm just one word .... CONFUSED...

congrats Ah Ma!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Ah Ma!

u must be relieved that in the end they DID recognize your work!!

GOOD FOR YOU!!

*pats your back*

CLAP CLAP CLAP

was feeling.... gubra!

hahah not!

i finally went to see the movie.. i was telling myself to ignore the critics about the movie and just go ahead and experience it myself....

what i love bout this movie is how it started, watching a muslim man touching a dog.. see see... who says muslims cannot touch dogs... i know that they can't touch the nose/mouth of a dog because it's wet and etc... but they can touch a dog... so i really solute Yasmin for making that statement in that movie....

though i went to the cinema prepared with a fresh packet of tissue, but unfortunately, there was no use of it... i thought when Jason's brother gave Orkid the letters, she will read them.. but that didn't happen...

i love the slackiness of Orkid when she was stinking and had to bathe at the hospital AND wear someones FATHER's CLOTHES!!! my god! if i were her, i'd rather ask the guy to send me back to change....

ohh and the part where there was a clip on the tv Orkid was watching when she was lying on the sofa... i think that was a clip of Yasmin's FIRST movie... Rabun... damn.. so hard to find that movie now... i really want to watch that movie... ahahah that movie was famous because of the scene where Yasmin's parents bathed together.... (not that that's the reason I want to watch it... puh lese...)

there's so many things, characters and personalities that u can relate here in GUBRA.. it's... so REAL.... and that's why i love her movies and her commercials too.. hehehehhe

go watch it!!! it's sad GSC in Gurney is not watching... but yea... go watch it in Megapavillion!!!

bugging him

my baby's mum and bro came back from fiji... so everything is back to normal.. the motherly "advice" and "obvious" questions to him are starting to annoy.....

wished i was there with him to think things straight about his future... where to work (penang or KL) what job to look for... what is he into....

i was telling him about the sales job here at my work place... that basically u need to sell stuffs over the phone.. no need to go out "bugging" ppl to buy.... and if he does well he could earn 5 figures a month... that got him thinking.. but the other side of him, is that he's not that kind of person to sit at a cubicle and not moving anywhere.. he likes to work with his hands.. get his hands dirty and etc...... so it's hard for a comp student to go all out to work with his hands AND get a decent pay... unless he works in a comp shop and brings pcs to cust house, set it up for them or be a networking fella that sets up pcs and stuffs.... but he studied and majored in software... so.. no networking knowledge....

if any of u could follow the passage above, u will see how confused my baby is.. and how down one would get having these confusions.... i pray for him to come up with the strenght to come up with a solution and be happy if not at least content with it.. sigh.. really wished i was with him right now so that i could at least be "there" and help him...

holy weekend

friday was GOOD FRIDAY.. wanted to blog but blogger was down... and i was too lazy to blog at home.... so to all christians out there HAPPY EASTER!!!!

friday was an "eventful" day... first everything was fine in the morning, then there was a big MISunderstanding..... it took a few hours to get things settled... and in the evening, i managed to leave work 1 hr earlier as there was Good Friday service to go to.. and KNOWING the bloody fucking jam every Friday evening, it was a good thing i managed to leave early.... just managed to get to church on time...

saturday was a day of no-movement.... i was in bed till noon.... even after a brief meal, i was on the couch watching tv till dinner time... tht's why.. no surfing the net, no checking mails, no blogging....

and on sunday, mass was at 10am ALLELUIA!!! and went to fetch grandad from the home to take him out for Easter Lunch ... at? Victoria Station in Bayan Baru... first time we went there.. it was so so.... it was sooo empty.. thought they'd have some Easter Lunch promo or something.. but i guess not.... but it was good that it was empty.... at least grandad wasn't making such a big fuss...

lunch was over.. and mum found out that tombola was playing this sunday... (what's tombola? it's like bingo but with $$$ - eurasians like to play this).... so we dropped her off at the Eurasian Association (which is 5 mins walk from Gurney Plaza) and dad and i went to watch The Wild.... i think Ice Age 2 would be better than that... but i haven't watched it yet, so i wouldn't know....

so that was my weekend.... came home after fetching mum from her gambling afternoon and had Dominos pizza for dinner (and lunch at work today.. hehehe)

today's half day for me.... thought of going to watch Gubra..... hmmm.....

it's showing!!!

i found out that gubra IS showing penang..

it's just that it's not showing in GSC BUT

it's showing in MegaPavillion!!!!!

yeay yeay...

gubra

GUBRA is COMING!!!!

OMG OMG OMG...

i can't wait i can't wait i can't wait!!!!!!!

conversations techniques

i've always thought that i was doing ok talking to ppl, be it strangers, old friends or new friends... but after a while without "practice" i seem to fall back...

someone told me that in my conversations, i'm being put-offish or negative... like when someone starts talking about the music THEY like (which I don't) i'll tell them that i don't and *poof* the conversation ends... or if i try talking about the things i like cause i don't know what they like, they don't layan me... so.... how do i go around this?

if i don't know what they're into.. how would i know what to talk to them about? do i talk to them about the obvious? like if i meet them at a mall, do i talking about shopping? or if i meet them at a Linkin Park concert do i ask them if they like Linkin Park? .. it's like duhh right....

i hate it when i see someone, say hi and all, finish with the small talk.. and then after that.. dunno what to say, both will be standing there silent..... so in the end.. it's either i break it and say i gotta go.. or the other fella will have to do that... and i hate it when especially i enjoy that other persons company, but somehow there's not much to say.... and we got to part....

new ppl at work... yes it's all hi bye scenario... but how do i get to know them more... how do i start making them want to talk to me? i'm all for it, talking to them.. but are they the same to me? do they WANT to know me? sigh.....

for some i did get to talk to them, but after that one subject... nothing else... end of conversation... yes there's work... yes there's lousy customers on the phone... yes there's.... agghh.. what the heck....

my point is... how do i make ppl WANT to talk to me? or is asking already a put-off?

art blog

ohh just to let u know.. i've put up some new pics in my art blog... still got somemore to upload

so much.. but then

for the past few days, i've always noted in my tiny brain some stuffs to blog but when the time comes to blog (like now) i forget what i wanted to blog... signs of ageing? hope not!.... sigh....

guess this post will be of random stuffs

so... supposedly this week is hardcore week... loads of calls... well yea in the beginning and in the morning, AND we get free food.. hahahha can save 1 weeks food money.. hahahah.... it's gonna continue to the next week too.. man we're gonna be really fat.. cause the food is like 2 cubicles away from us.... so we could easily go get food and munch between calls.. hahah what a glut we all are...

then there's my baby's brother and mum coming back from fiji.... his brother came back yesterday, met up with them for dinner... ahhahaha.... he came back with an aussie slang... though he was in fiji longer than in sydney... saying it was the fiji slang and it was his style of talking now... hahahhahahahah wonder how long that would last.... i'm sure he'll loose it after a few days...

what do u think of belly dancing... belly dancing classes are around everywhere esp in those gyms.... u think the instructors are egyptians? or ppl from that part of the world? i don't think so... hahahha... and do u think moving your bum or hips is a piece of cake? i don't think so.. can sweat man..... it's tiring....

the new car.... the number plate fell off.... then the "G" fell off.... then had a nail in one of the tyres... soi right? but after that.. no probs.... am used to the smallness already but secretly wished it would be a teeny weeny bit bigger....

i went to watch Lucky Number Slevin... and it was.... wow..... speechless... towards the middle and nearly the end of the movie i thought to myself.. damn.... i don't get the story.... such a dumb ass.. but in the end they explained everything and i was .... wookay.... now i get it!! hahahha.... surprise surprise guess who i met at the cinema... 3 of my colleagues... nick.. jean and ros.... they too were surprised to see me... heheh.. wonder if they went hung out after the movie... hmm...... well as for mua i went home after that.. now where to go, no one to go with...

ohh ohh ohh.... i went to secret recipie with mum... and guess what i saw parked outside????? my old PEL 6018!!!! OMG!!! i got so excited.. i was looking at the car and what was inside... they did up the front glass (yea it was broken when we traded it in), they did up the dent at the side of the door and also did up the front lights.... they kept the original colour, they put in power windows and put a storage box (i don't know what u call it) in between the 2 seats at the hand-brake..... and i'm sure they cleaned the seats... sniff sniff.. was so happy that i saw the car again, and it was STILL in penang!!!! amazing isn't it? i thought it'd be forgotten in the car dealers garage or something like that or some beng have bought it and overly modified the car till i wouldn't recognize the car... but in fact, a chinese did buy it and kept it as it was... i wanted to leave a note on the car for them to say thank you for taking care of the car..... but... nah.... i think that's too "over".... at least now can sleep in peace (konon-nya) knowing the car is ok... :) gosh.. my dad was soo happy when i told him that.... u could have seen his face....

nearly....

my baby tempted me to pangkor.... which made me hate him more.... *stomps my feet*...

he KNOWS we had to go back to KL on sunday.... AND my meeting only ended at 4pm on SATURDAY and yet he HAD to voice out that offer... which he KNEW i couldn't resist...

i was willing to go even though i knew i'll get my period by then AND can't go swimming AND don't have my swimming suite AND will be freaking tired when i go to work on monday, but he changes his mind last minute!!!!

so this is what i meant by being THIS close to going to pangkor..... *stomps my feet*

i'll never....

i think i've jinxed it...

i think i'll never go clubbing in KL.... it's just like shopping.. everytime i'm there in KL, it's either no one wants to go, or i won't have time to go... OR... HE doesn't want to bring me because HE doesn't do clubbing... sigh.....

but i was lucky that i went shopping for a lil while i practically had to beg him to bring me... eventhough he gave me a piece of his mind about me and shopping...

here's a summary of what he said

-i go shopping -> can't find clothes -> sad/angry -> he kena because i'm sad/angry

-i go shopping -> clothes no size -> sad/angry -> he kena

-i go shopping -> clothes too expensive -> sad/angry -> he kena

so in other words... it's not whether i GET to go shopping, it's what's going to happen to him when i go shopping.. he's looking out for himself.... selfish isn't it....

of shopping and movies

so the rest of the weekend was so-so....

after the interview i spent dinner with my godma... i think it's a routine that everytime i go to KL.. my mum will SURE have something for me to bring for her.. AND my godma will SURE have something for me to bring back for my mum.... and my baby complains why my luggage is always full and heavy.... i'm their delivery guy yo!!!

anyway, it was a friday, so she made fish... though it was nice, but i had enough of fish for the week as the canteen at work doesn't cook chicken anymore... bird flu.... it seems... sigh.... but it was ok, cause there was ice-cream and milo after that.. hahahahha.....

sat after the AGM... we went to church... and then to Mid Valley!! yeay!!! it's been ages since i went there.. and i KNOW that night won't be enough for me to go to all of the mall.... but anyway, managed to find my usual shops.. and got a pdi t-shirt for RM11 !!! hahhaha what a steal....

AND....

we went to Chillies... yummers.... this time i tried their lamb..... abit salty though... but it was good... i had one of their cocktails.. and with that i was talking cock! hahahah... my baby was wondering why i was extra naughty and cheeky with my words.. then he realised... hahahahahha.... and i was all pink in the face... but after that, after the dinner i sober-ed down... the alco wore off... and we had the Chillies famous dessert.... the volcano-choc-mount thingy.... i couldn't even have my share... my baby took most of it.. hahhahah

movies.. yes.... we went to watch The Inside Man.... ok ok show... it's actually quite predictable but this one had a lil twist at the end.... and there were some humour in it.... we wanted to watch Nanny McPhee and V but didn't have time, or it wasn't showing the time we were free....

sunday was abit layed back... went to KLCC to get my dosage of Roti Boy and Burger King.... they SHOULD open up in PENANG man...... sigh.....

and then we took the bus back.....

AND my "best friend" paid me a visit... shucks..... which means, suffering on the bus and at work on monday..... *cry cry cry*

you're OUT!

sigh... thought i'd be still in the SEFA committee for another year as a committee member, but i guess not this year.. :(

so anyway, when we reached there, there was food! hahah though i didn't expect it.. but what the heck.. have a second lunch.... food was yummy though...

then met the regulars.. some were "surprised" i was there.. some were happy i was there (i think).... and all were wanting to meet my baby... hhehehehe...

well, i registered my baby to be a member... and everyone seemed to be extra friendly.. hahah i guess it's because we have a new member! thanks to me... nyeh nyeh nyeh....

so here's the only pic of the committee of 05/06

introduction before the kick off of the old team...

introducing our new logo.. with explanations...

see how gf and bf got in the race to be one of the committee members... actually Hargopal was the one who nominated him.. not Luyee.... John Sek who was doing the typing got mistaken...

the balloting was done using pieces of paper and in the end i had a tie with Cheryl.... so the both of us had to leave the room... and they had to revote... i think my baby said i lost to her by a near 2 votes.... oh well... she IS in KL.. and i AM in penang..

the new committee 06/07

out with the old (president) in with the new.....

and after that, we took pics with our ex-advisor who paid us a visit, couldn't take pics as my bloody battries dieded on me.... sigh... i need new rechargable battries!!!!!

so.. JEFFERSON!!! send me those pics!!!!!!
