Meet Mr. Bun

Introducing... Yong's Photoshop/Illustrator masterpiece. He doctored me and Mr. Bun's potrait. It's kinda cute, isn't it? I'm posting this now because we finally stepped out as an official couple in front of our friends. Not all, but just these few will do. Their satellite signals are very strong and efficient. Even my mom saw us kiss after he dropped me off home. And yes, I'm finally happy now 'cause I don't have to dream anymore :)


Threesome, anyone?

You can't have it. But you can watch.

I don't know what the fella is singing about. But I believe the concept of the video was utterly unnecessary... For any songs, for all that matter.

Hot Guy + Fugly Dudes



Watch this video. I can't help but notice that Adam Levine is waaaaaaayyy much hotter now compared to the first record. But the music sucks. Well, the song's catchy but they sound more like a disco pop band now. Look at how Adam flirts around with his eyebrow. Sexy! The only thing wrong about him in the video is the bloody bow-tie. Why can't he just wear a tie?? Anyway, they shouldn't be calling themselves Maroon 5 from now. Look at Adam's bandmates... They're all so fucking ugly. They should be renamed as 'Hot Adam Levine and the fugly dudes'.

Dear Mr. Tony Fernandes,

By now the whole of Malaysia (and most part of the world) knows how a great entrepreneur you are. Few years ago, I bet you didn't have your name in Wikipedia. And now, everyone wants to have a piece of you. While I know you're a genuinely nice man, I'd get tired of repeating the story of how I managed to build AirAsia into such a phenomenon it is today, if I were you. But of course, I'd still do it because can show off ma. But I know you weren't doing so when I had the opportunity to interview you. It's such a waste my story never made it to the non-existent "The U". It's a heartache, but I still love the fact that I had the opportunity to sit inside your old office back in KLIA, before LCCT was built. Man, the room was not an inch of what I'd expect of an office of a CEO to be like. I don't live in a mansion, but even my parent's bedroom is bigger than your office. Well, your old office at least. I wouldn't know how big your current office is. Most amazing thing was, we were just a bunch of varsity students still in our diapers, but you were willing to spend your precious time with us. How cool is that? Pretty damn cool. Can show off your guitar skills sumore...

Anyhoo, I'd like to thank you for being such a smart and generous businessman. (I'll get Kelly Clarkson to sing in the background for this part, but I don't have the budget, so let's forget about that.) Because of you, I can now fly to Hong Kong and Bangkok. It means a great deal to me, because I've always loved to travel despite not having the moolah to do so. And I'm not blessed with long legs so I can't be a stewardess. I'm especially happy since I can go to Bangkok. It's not extremely far from Kuala Lumpur, but it's not too easy for me to just fork out the money to go there anytime. But thanks to the free plane tickets that your company gives out, I'm soooooooo going there next year. Can you please continue giving them out so that I can go to Vietnam next? I have a few places which I'd like to visit before I'm wiped out from the face of this planet. Bangkok and Hanoi are two places from the list. Maybe you could explore flying direct to Italy in the not too distant future. I'd like to propose to Gianluigi Buffon. I'll invite you our wedding, I promise!

P/S: Tokyo and Bahamas sound kinda nice too ;)

I ran

And I fell. Hard. Now I gotta learn how to stand up and clear up the bloody mess I made. Gotta take it slow and steady from now. Learning what humility really means...

Kewl Kweller



Sometimes people just need a dose of silly, but good music. And I found Ben Kweller. His videos are kinda cheap-looking. But who cares? Good music is what counts. After all, he's got the balls to stuff a tampon up his nostrils to stop his nose from bleeding while performing on stage. Even Tommy Lee couldn't have done that.

Creepy crawlies

Or I would rather call them eight-legged freaks. I'm not much of a spider-phobe person. But now I understand why Fear Factor contestants become such wimps and pussies when they're surrounded by spiders. I had more than a few dozen above my head just now. Few dozen ah... Not only a few okay? Where? At the bus stop in front of Serdang KTM station. There's a whole army of them on the roof. I'm still having goosebumps. It's that freaking disgusting. They don't look like those domestic, small, black-coloured ones. They're a bit bigger, kinda like hazelnut-sized, brown-coloured spideys. I know la... Hazelnuts come in all sizes and shapes, but just try to think of the more generic ones can? Some more got holes on their backs. Geli like fuck! Argh!! I can't go on blogging about them spiders. I'm totally grossed out.

5 Reasons Why I Blog

Aduhsssss... Kena tag liao. So have to state the 5 least important reasons of why I blog. Here goes...

1) To whine
Who doesn't?

2) To bitch
I do it all the time in real life. So what makes you think I won't do it in cyberspace?

3) To share
Sometimes about certain cool stuff that comes my job and lately, about Mr. Bun...

4) To fully utilize my Streamyx account
Abuthen... You think so syok to pay RM88 every month ah?

5) To prove the idiocracy of some "minister"
I blog, I'm a female, I'm under 25... But I'm employed. And loving it.

Next up! I tag...
1) Deb
2) Darshini
3) Jasmine
4) Danny
5) Amy

Rock Star Fetish



Are you kidding me? This is what I've missed? @%^$^#$^$@^$^#^%@ Chester is sooooo sexy *drools* The whole leather get-up... Yummy! So shagalicious! Why am I not working for Le Meridien KL ah? I could've sneaked into his room and seduced him. Ok fine. I'll dream about it tonight. At least that's the only thing I can do at the moment. Hmph!!

Doesn't smell too good




















I thought it was supposed to be a damn good movie. It actually was... For one-third of it!! The ending really puts me off. I mean, if the script writer is suffering from a writer's block, then take some time off to get inspired. Don't give us movie-goers some shitty piece of work. Thank God I watched it with Mr. Bun. Less pissed off from all the cuddling.

On another note, I found this really funny video from Perez's webbie. Poor kid. He's gonna grow up being laughed at for this. Or become a really famous gay instead.

Got me twisted

Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. That is the perfect way to illustrate my feelings right now. It's difficult to describe it, but I guess I'm like a little girl lost in a candy store. Gasping at how amazing and beautiful the world is... Then I stopped at one big and sexy candy, which I wanted real badly. The more I look at it and think of how yummy it would taste, the more badly I want to have it. And before I knew it, someone came and snatched it away from me. Yup, that's kinda like how I'm feeling at the moment. Today is supposed to be perfect. A day off from work to go see Chester Bennington, and come home feeling like I'm in heaven. But noooooooo... All this has to be taken away from me. I'm filled with an unmeasureable amount of rage, hatred and jealousy. I mean, if it were some random people who got the chance to meet Chester up close, I wouldn't mind. But she was so selfish to keep it to herself. Worst, she wasn't even a fan of Chester in the first place!! How bithcy can she get? Saying sorry doesn't get you anywhere, my dear. Can you shove your anger down your throat if I got to snuggle up to Mike Shinoda and you couldn't? I'm so turned off by the whole situation that I can't even stay for the event. Left the miserable place and had lunch with Mr. Bun. He made me smile for a while. But when I got off at the train station and was left alone again, a shield of self-pityness wrapped tightly around me once again. I was clinging on to whatever strength I had to stop myself from breaking down. Now I know how bad it feels to not get what I want. Want so badly... Whatever la. I'm gonna need at least a few days to get this out of my system. At least I get to know another person's real face today. I still love Chester, even more now that he's shown me who's worth being my friend, and who's not. Now I'm gonna have to cross my fingers and pray everyday that Linkin Park's having a concert in Malaysia again.

Spa Virgin No More

Seems like I got plenty of cherries to pop eh? For those who have been following my blog since my Friendster days... You might remember my entry about losing my concert virginity. Yesterday, I went to a spa and well, lost my spa virginity lah! (Btw, why do I have to make everything sound so lewd?) Got off from work yesterday and I went upstairs for a treatment. I don't give my body enough sleep, so I might as well be nice to myself and indulge in a treatment once in a while (Fyi, it's not entirely my fault that I don't get enough sleep every night. It's Mr. Bun's fault). I must say... The spa was pretty impressive at first look. Not as if it was my first time going there, but last week it was just to ask for pricing and stuff like that. The staff were incredibly professional. Let me paint the picture for you. Usually when you step into any retail outlets or anywhere that has to do with monetary transactions, you'll either be greeted with so much warmth and enthusiasm OR people don't give a fcuk about your existence, am I right? Even for those places that gives so-called professional service, the staff are pretty fake, aren't they? They only greet you once they've clocked in and don't give a shit while they're on lunch break, or toilet break, or whatever. At the spa, I was really surprised that the staff who were walking in and out literally stopped in their tracks to greet me. So polite leh. I mean, there was this moment when I was sitting at the waiting area and was staring into space, admiring the setting and suddenly, a staff stopped in front of me while she was passing through and greeted me. Terkejut I...

Anyhoo, I would love to share my experience in detail but umm... I don't want my blog to be X-rated. Don't get me wrong, there are no "special" services offered (I hope!), but it's just unavoidable to feel sensual in a spa because I was literally stripped down. And there was a pair of stranger's hand touching me all over. I tell you... If a delicious hunk was attending to me, I'd be cheating on Mr. Bun big time! Serious! Without any hesitation. Now I see why Yong's friend got hard while he had a spa treatment. LMAO!! Thankfully I had a very nice lady to attend to me la. So I wasn't exposed to the danger of becoming a slut or pervert or anything like that. And who doesn't get naked in a spa? You tell me la. Best part is always the massage. 'Cause I luurrvvveeee massages. Apart from that, I really liked the milk bath. I was soaking in the milky water and it feels so damn good. Feeling rather XXX in the tub too *wink wink*

Ok lah... Enough with my hamsap nonsense. I think I owe you people an introduction of Mr. Bun. He's my beloved sweet boyfriend. Why do I bestow such a name upon him? It's not much of a big thing really. The name just came accidentally from Jasmine and now it's stuck between me and Deb. Even he doesn't know he's called Mr. Bun. He only knows about "Maybank". And if he reads this, he'll know. And I'm ready for questions. Oh... I don't get to sleep 'cause we're on the phone every night for hours. What else were you thinking of? :p

P/S: Here's the spa I was talking about: http://www.jojoba.com.my/jojobaspa_home.asp

Three little words

Make a big difference for two persons in a relationship. They turned my life upside down and suddenly he's the only person wandering this complicated maze in my head. I hope he doesn't get lost in there. When he said them, my heart was pumping so fast that you'd think I was high on drugs. No, I wasn't. It was something else. Blood wasn't just flowing through my veins... You know Niagra Falls? That was the rush I felt. Now how do I bring myself back to reality and just relax? I don't wanna think too much and over-analyze. It's nice to know there's someone who cares and I just wanna be loved.

Taman Linkin

I better work out

I better get high

Gotta slut it out

I'm telling you why

Bennington is coming to town...



Woohoo!! Can April 4th come faster????

Cash Tornado

Wish this entry was about me picking up shitloads of cash... But it's all about the work, baby!! Not that I was really working for this though. Went downstairs to take some photos, met some people, gave out some name cards, bla bla bla... Even got a free copy of MWW. What I really wanted was the free movie pass. But Lil' John didn't give it to me :( One more thing, Sham looks like Vin Diesel. He even sounds like Diesel -.-"


Sweetness



















Ashley's no longer a single lonely bitch :)

All smiles

There's not much to be said about today's convocation ceremony. Just to note that I was very excited, to the point where adrenaline took over and I actually forgot that I was sick. And I was smiling and laughing so much... But it didn't bother me 'cause I was truly happy. The feelings came true from the inside. Unlike the short time I spent taking the studio photos, and felt so awkward the whole time. My favourite shot of the day (which excludes the need to post up the other one hundred million photos that I took) is definitely this one...

















My body does have good memory. I felt so beaten down after getting on to the car. My shirt was soaked in sweat after I took off my jacket and gown. Hair was fucked after taking off the mortar board. No worries... I took my meds and will be off to bed soon. I'm working tomorrow anyway. Anyone shopping for holidays at MATTA Fair tomorrow? Come pay me a visit ;) Oh... I'm off to the second convocation session as well. Gotta share my friends' great day. And I don't care if the bosses don't like it. Die die I also must go!!
















Lovely flowers I've received today

Ugly pic



















Or should I say ugly pig? I hateeeeeeeee this photo!! My face is puffy and my hair's like shit. I've had three new hairstyles and my hair colour's not even that anymore since this photo was taken. How frustrating can it get? Not to mention the fact that UTAR's gonna project this photo to few thousand people this Saturday, and have already distributed the e-album to a few thousand others. Geraaaammmmm!!!

I should be so thankful

Yes, I should count my blessings indeed. It's just another day for most people out there, but today I discovered three very important things:

1) I have colleagues who are concerned about my well being, even though we've only known each other for less than three months

2) I have friends who love me, and I love them to bits too

3) I have a guy who shares a mutual feeling as I do for him, and wants me more than I want him. Don't get me wrong. I'm just overwhelmed by the attention he's giving me. I've never had guys treating me this way

I'm exploding with all sorts of emotions. Feeling everything at the same time. Love, fear, emptiness, gratitude, fulfilment, hesitation, bla bla bla. Am I asking too much? Thinking too much? Abby and Deb has advised me not to. I know I shouldn't. I even told him not to do the same. So why am I whining? Dunno la. I'm just too complicated for myself to handle.

Would you be my girlfriend?

Chapter 1

That was his question. It came as such a surprise. She never expected him to say those words so soon. Her hands were shaking so badly that she was sipping quickly on her green tea as if it were the elixir of life. Close to the point of gulping. She could only tell him that they shouldn't move too fast. He agreed. But he said he's gonna try harder. "At least I still have the chance." And they continued to talk while invisible pink cotton candy hearts were floating in the air and Cupid was watching closely. The air-conditioning in the cinema nearly froze her to death. She was wishing so badly that she could snuggle up to him for some warmth. But she was too stubborn. And he was too afraid to wrap his arms around her. Maybe afraid that he'll scare her. It was hard enough for him to confess his feelings. She knew about it, and she was feeling the exact same way too but she never knew he was such a shy guy after all. He walked her to the train station after they had dinner. She is such a sushi lover. But she couldn't manage to eat as much as she usually could. Her mind was not concentrated on hunger. Her body was flushed with heat. Primal heat. Passionate blood is once again flowing through her cold veins. She felt coy when their skin brushed against each other. "Why didn't he just grab my hand and hold on tightly to it?" She was screaming inside. All he could manage was to touch her lightly on her shoulder and even more lightly near her hips. Such a shy guy. No one could ever tell. But the connection is there. The feelings are strong. More importantly, the feelings are mutual. How did it happen? No one could ever know. Sparks fly, and it is a beautiful thing for these two young lovers to be able to start a relationship together. It was just the first date. There are more to come. And deep in her heart, she prays everyday for a man she can truly love and love her in return.

Just another phase?

I want you to want me

I'll shine up the old brown shoes, put on a brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work if you say that you love me

Let's Ride












I fucking love Nicolas Cage in Ghost Rider. He is so damn sexy. Balding or not in real life... I DON'T care. He's soooooo delicious. I watched it at BTS with Eric and Yong this evening. We missed 45 minutes of the show because of some assholes and bought tickets to watch it again on the midnight show. And I loved every second of it!! Poor guys had to bear with me squeal in delight when Nic Cage went topless for a scene *drools*

I HATE ALICE KIM

Old ladies

Jasmine the rebel is back! So we us girls met up at TGIF. We were loud, as usual. Especially when we were joined by Simpson, Kuan Mei and Angel. Kuan Mei's hubby was quiet 'cause he was sick and Angel's boyfriend as well, because we didn't know him. Everyone was really chatty, and we'd find that we didn't know which conversation to pay attention to, because so many people were talking at the same time. Anyway, company was awesome, and the food was great. I'm really glad to catch up with some friends after so long of not seeing them. And it's only been a couple of months! Self-proclaimed Miss World did a good job of introducing the Jack Daniel's Chicken to me. The sauce is just heavenly!! No pics though. No one seem to have brought a camera. I didn't 'cause I had a smaller handbag today.

After Simpson, Kuan Mei+hubby left, we continued with our conversations. We sounded like a bunch of old b****es. (Censor done in honour of CCB. CCB = Chris' Censorship Board. But it sounds like another different thing that is banned under the censorship board, doesn't it? :p) It's funny how Jasmine mentioned that the rest of us sounded so mature. Deb pointed out that all we used to talk about was gossips about the people around us. I think it's more about whining about how awful our alma mater was, really. But now every ingredient of our conversations are heavily seasoned with talks of work, work and more work! I guess it's just that we've moved on to another level in our lives. The one where we are still learning how to be an adult. Nonetheless, I still suck at it. But I'm learning la.

Deb and Miss World are such pathetic liars. I'm gonna ignore that anyway. I'll miss my deb deb ;( I'll have less one friend to listen to my whinings now. At least for 3 years until she's back. Soon I can only whine to her and wait longer for a reply.

P/S: Deb, I wish you all the best. I know it sounds clichéd, but I really mean it. You've made a choice and it might not necessarily have a right or wrong attached to it, but you've chosen a path. So make the best out of it and give it your all. Life is too short for what ifs. But yet too long for a monotonous life. So let go of whatever insecurities, bla bla bla and enjoy yourself, ok?

Pig Out in Penang

I went, I saw and I ate 'til my stomach grew. Time for a diet before the convo...
















This dish is called 'steamed groupa with pan mee'. I forgot the name of the restaurant. It's along the row of shops opposite Queensbay Mall. Right beside this shop with Pucca on its signboard.


Next stop was Swatow Lane, to the New World Food Court.















Sotong and Jellyfish with Kangkong. Damn syiok!

















"Orh Chien". Niceeeee...

















Why can't we have ABC's that taste like this in KL?

















This was a humiliation to laksas on the whole island.





















The weather was scorching hot. Coconut juice was perfect to cool down the heat

















We had breakfast at Restaurant Zim Sum on Jalan Anson (opposite KDU) on the second day. This dim sum place is huge. It's a food court with performances by scantily-dressed chicks at night. The siew paus and egg tarts are deeelicioussss. Sumore they came right out of the stove. Yummm... "Ha mai" and fried chicken were nice. The rest, like the yam basket, paper-wrapped curry chicken, "siew mai" and "ha kau" were so-so.

















Wan tan mee was simply gorgeous



Walked around Penang for a bit. We were all dead tired from the heat. Could really melt if we were made of wax. Chin dragged us to this coffee shop directly opposite Penang Chinese Girl's High School for laksa. He and his wifey were dead on serious about it being the best laksa of the whole island. I kinda liked it, but I only had a little. 'Cause I was still very full from the dim sum in the morning. And I ate two slices of watermelon right after coming from the Botanical Garden.

















There's this row of houses right outside from the Botanical Garden, apparently Karpal Singh lives there as well. We saw two Indian fellas rip off the railing from the main gate of one of the houses. Then those fellas just sped off on their bike with the loot. The most ironic thing is that all the houses had big ass 'Rakan Cop' posters in front of their houses. So much for a successful anti-crime programme eh?

Next stop was to lepak at Tanjong Bunga. A lesson I learnt was to never wear heels to the beach. But then again, it's not as if I had other choices. I would wear sandals and then go barefeet if I knew I was going to the beach and had more space in my bag.
















This house looks pretty normal right? But it's currently topping my wishlist. You may wonder why...
















It's because the backyard looks like this.


I stayed at Toh Seng's brother's house. Nice place. My favourite bit of the house was the fridge. I've seen many people collect magnets and stick those on their fridges, but they have the coolest collection I've seen so far. The mini liquor bottles have real liquor in them. Don't the masks and cuckoo clock look absolutely cute?


















Traffic back to KL was smooth. Thank goodness. But I was tired and sleepy at work. Distracted at most times. I came back with a fall. An emotional one. Sigh... There's always a boo-boo to every happy story, isn't there?

Proud to be Herself?

I've been contemplating this for a while, and I'm still undecided up to this point. Many people have told me not to read that brainless Singaporean bitch's blog, but I still do just for the heck of it. Even Deb and Darshini told me not to! Which bitch? That one who was blonde so she could feel like she's one of the white race and somehow is now sporting a blue-black hair colour, mebbe because she's already has a white boyfriend and there's no need to pretend anymore?

I didn't even bother to diss about her when she blogged about how it was alright to be raped by a man just because he's good looking... And white. And no... Posting up a defence after making it a point that you don't care what other people think about your views, time and time again, doesn't help in making you clear up your case. But I just read her latest entry, and despite how lovey-dovey she seemed over her (I guess, visually impaired 'cause he ended up with her) boyfriend, she was whining about how unfair it was for white people to have coloured eyes, and other races don't. How stupid can that be? My eyes are dark brown. Isn't dark brown a colour? Is that bodoh, or is that simply bodoh? She's got a lot of posts which angered a lot of people, but I never read those before. So this was the one that made me really sick. Has the chemicals from all the hair-dye she uses damaged her already puny brain? Or was it just the classic case of bad genetics? Or bad parenting? Her parents prolly never taught her how to lover herself, and her fellow racial members. Get a life, self-hating + self-denial bitch.

P/S: At the risk of sounding like a hypocrite myself, her link is still up 'cause I might continue reading her blog... For entertainment from anger, I guess. No clue about what other purpose it serves.

Riding up north

Pearl of the Orient... Here I come!!

So jakun... As if never went to Penang before. Sumore only going on Friday. But I still can't wait. Meeting up with friends and getting angpows. Most exciting of all... Penang food! Char kuey teow, assam laksa... You better watch out. My stomach is bloated like a pregnant cow's belly right now but I can still think about eating all these food. No wonder no guy wants me :(

Anyhoo... Today was the first time I ever felt like I hated going to work. Seriously. Everyone else are still on holiday but I gotta drag my ass up from bed and go to work. Didn't even do my own work today. Had to finish up someone else's unfinished work just because she's on leave. If cannot finish own work then don't go on leave la! KNS. Sumore can go to Singapore... As if she's willing to shop there. So kiamsap punya people. Go there also waste breath. ^&$^&$%*%&$#

I hope tomorrow's gonna be better. There's the lion dance troupe visiting the office, and planned 'Ghost Rider' after-work outing at IMAX. Sleepy like hell but I'm not letting my body have the rest it desperately needs.

Xin Nian Kuai Le

Chinese New Year... For Chinese, it signifies the beginning of a new spring and of course, a new year. Since the new spring has come, my home is unusually filled with plants and flowers. Well, not that much, but still more than usual. 'Cause usually we won't have plants lying around except for mom's bonsai trees. Just to add a little bit of CNY feel around the house.










































































I think I look like I'm too much into the CNY theme on the first day. But what hell... Red is in what!
















Anyways, I won't be hoping too much on getting a lot of angpau. The newspapers are spinning that the economy's getting better but what do they know? Know how to spin lor! But no harm in trying to maximize my profits by putting on a thick face in the office and go around asking for angpau right? Yeah... I'll be able to get that fucking sexy pair of Aldo heels faster that way. Muahaha... Gong Xi Fa Cai everybody!

I wanna marry a Rock Star



Brandon, leave your wife. Let's elope. And I'm gonna save you and kill that ugly caterpiller living above your lip. I love you.




Doesn't Gary look so damn cute when he smiles?

Veli sepesel day

So it's that dreadful day of the year again. It never meant anything to me, but I must say... I had some pretty interesting events unfolding for me today.

Firstly, I woke up this morning and suddenly felt like cleaning up my computer table. So I did. Was going through the papers in my plastic folder before I throw them away, and guess what I found? Don't have to be so creative with your answers la... I found old love letters. Of course I threw them away! Meluat... Out of 365 days a year, I have to find these things today. Really suey!

Secondly, my Art Director enquired about my status. Not financial status. What other status can he ask about on Valentine's Day right? But it wasn't for his own use, he's married with a baby girl. He was asking me what I thought about his friend, this dunno what Finance Manager or Director or something. Wanted to hitch us up. Kept on promoting the good qualities of this guy to me. But I don't think I'm gonna give it a go. He's 30+ la. Where can? I know mature guys are better and more reliable, but it's so hard to accept someone so much older, more so the fact that I don't even know or speak to him. It's gonna be so hard for me to even speak to him from now on. Geli... Don't you think it's kinda weird that he's such a great guy (as advertised) but is still single up to this day? Why didn't the pat kung introduce my much age-appropriate (in other words - OLD) and still single colleague? I think she desperately needs to get laid. Something's wrong with her mind. Anyway, I'm gonna come up with a counter-attack tomorow against the pat kung and ask him to tie these two up together instead. Even if he didn't sound as weird, I wouldn't want a guy without the balls to even talk to me. Can even gossip with the pat kung after I finished my session. Dunno what the fark they talked about me... Oh, and my mom so not understands her daughter. She was actually up for the whole idea. Talk about parents who can't wait to get their children hitched. Hrmph!

Thirdly, I helped my male colleague to shop for Valentine gifts. Everything very nice and cheap. If I didn't teman him, sure the fella so kesian cannot find what he wanted to give to his girlfriend. Thank goodness for Cupid Ashley.

Fourthly, a sesat cab stopped in front of my house about 20 minutes ago. At first, I thought it was my brother who took the cab home. Then the cabbie came down and yelled something. Me, my mom and dad looked out to see what was happening. Then the cabbie said he was delivering flowers. My heart nearly skipped a beat.

"Wuah... I really have a secret admirer." - My inner monolouge.

But mana tau... The cabbie wanted to go to Jalan Rafflesia. I live on Jalan Cendana. KNS. If you want directions, just ask for directions la. Don't say you're delivering flowers, then only say you can't find this road. Bodoh.

So there. Valentine's Day for me this year was not so bad after all.

The start of my CNY

After all the drama, this is what matters the most... A happy ending.

Scoop

Muse concert tickets are sold out.

Gwen Stefani, Linkin Park and The Killers coming to Malaysia in 2007.

For real??

I can't wait. I'll seriously jump off from my office block if I miss Linkin Park this time. Same goes for The Killers.

Busy as a Bee

Despite all the fucked-up-ness I had to endure yesterday, it was still a great day. I learnt that given time, people will eventually reveal their true self. A colleague I used to think was nice and cool, isn't really what she seems at all. I can see through the facade now. Thank God for a new and more real person. She's more of a WYSIWYG. I prefer that. And we can totally have a bitching session together and release our frustrations. I learnt that the path I've chosen, isn't familiar at all. I still so have so much to learn. Thank God for a good boss who's willing to teach and train me, to say the least. Thank God for meeting with some inspirational people along the way.

So we did some more media visits yesterday. Had the opportunity to rub shoulders and even had a friendly debate with two of the editors from Star. They're a real great bunch of people, I must say. Must be the big and nice office... Makes them all happy. Wong Sai Wan is probably coming up with a sequel to why modern women can't get married soon. Pity the fella, had to dodge our shower of bullets. Met Jennifer Ong from World Asia, and she gave me more reasons on why I should stay strong to build my career path. Not directly to me though, but I felt her passion for her work very inspiring. Yalah... A bit long-winded but it was all about the passion for work. I'm so looking forward for this year's HAPA.

We had a late dinner at Vansh, this really cool Indian restaurant in Starhill Gallery. My colleague, June used to work there. I'm gonna apologize now for not remembering the name of the dishes. Was too caught up with eating. Lol. It was difficult to take the pictures already, especially the pics outside of Vansh. Apparently pictures aren't allowed. And kesian my boss and colleagues. Have to wait for me to finish taking pictures before eating. And because of that, I couldn't concentrate taking perfect pictures la. Some ended up blur.
















Vansh means 'The latest addition to the family". The manager, John hooked with us up with some wicked dishes. And the best part is, everything was on the house at the end of the night. Muahahaha...





















They call this the "cigar". John explained why they call it cigar is because of the "fire" you taste after eating it. At first I thought smoke will come up after biting onto it, but I understood what he meant after eating. Really power!! This stuff is not available in Malaysia, so they got it imported. From where, I forgot. So I guess that means you can't get it anywhere else. There are three dips for it: Mint yoghurt, Chilli and another yoghurt I forgot what it's called. I like the one I forgot.

















Mutton lovers, beware! Their award-winning lamb shanks will get you Addicted. Spelled with a capital "A" 'cause it's just so darn good. The meat is tender and juicy, but yet firm at the same time. Not to mention it was full of flavour.

















The "Indian pizza". No cheese. Because it's not really a pizza after all.

















This is simply an exciting dish to tease your tastebuds. My boss described it as a burst of vodka in the mouth. I call it my "fake vodka". June mentioned they have the real thing. I gotta try the real vodka one in the future.





















My drink. I forgot the name. Something something masala. It's got mint, pineapple and something else I forgot. Very refreshing. Great for the coming drought. And it wasn't even served with ice! But next time, I wanna try the one my boss had. Kinky drink. It's called "Karma Sutra". Lol.

















Look at the decor. So pretty. The walls are replicas of the mud walls in India. They can't make the real thing here so it's just a replica lor.

















































So we walked around Feast Village for a bit. It was such a beautiful place. I was happily taking pictures while they were walking ahead of me. Then June told me that I wasn't actually allowed to take pictures. So I kept my camera before anyone tried to mess with me.














































































































The best part of the night was the washroom. If you come to Feast Village, you gotta come to the washroom. Come and you will know what I mean. No explanations needed. And entrance is FOC.

















You don't have to worry about the shy-high parking fees when you come to Starhill Gallery. It's only RM5 after 6p.m. Beats Sg. Wang and a whole lot of shopping complexes in KL city. And just like how my boss described, there's no punk girls with leotards running around here. Many people would appreciate that.

In the meantime, I'm so guilty of conflict of interest with this entry. But I don't care. I'm just sharing my personal experience. Can't wait to go to Tiffin Bay next time!

Tired

Broke my own record so far. Only left the office at 10.30 p.m. Damn the bloody media visits. Hehe... Fun but tiring. Got truck load of work waiting for me when I get back to the office. Tomorrow and next week's gonna be the same. Not to mention the stupid CNY thing which I'm not supposed to be worried about in the first place. If only more people can put in their share of dedication in as well. Aargh!!

But looking on the bright side, I'm having dinner at Vanch, Starhill Gallery tomorrow. Pics to be up if I can really make it. Wish we could go to the Ad Awards thingy tonight. Could've been fun, but I don't think I can make it to work tomorrow then.

I do love my job.

Graduation = Celebration?

Who cares about a stupid ceremony anyway? I have an awesome job now :p

Actually, I do care. It's the day when all my pent-up emotions come surging and well up my tear ducts. When the right moment comes, happy (and sad) tears will come flowing down my cheeks, feeling so relieved for finally achieving a milestone in my life. Feeling proud about myself for making it through these four difficult (and amazing) years. Feeling lucky for meeting some of the most wonderful human beings, whom turn from unimates to buddies and lecturers to friends. Feeling relieved that I didn't screw up my studies and end up disappointing my parents, despite the other disappointments I commit. This is gonna be a BIG day.

My dear friends who are graduating with me... Let's camwhore to the max!!

After 17 March 2007, my life goes back to dedicating myself to BHR. I am now. And I'm loving every single moment of it. Learning to build up my foundation in my job is not easy, but definitely crucial and cool, if you can see the importance of it.

P/S: My secret Convocation fantasy... To have "Don'cha" by Pussycat Dolls on full volume blast on the sound system while I'm walking up the stage to get my scroll. Kinda like I'm walking up to accept a Grammy awards. Muahahaha... So Rock&Roll.

Self-Reflection

I question myself... "Who am I?"

Am I the self-loathing and world-hating bitch who's filled with unconditional rage for every talking thing in the planet?

Am I the love-filled homegirl who just can't grow up, who can't seem to find her own liberty in this big, big world?

Am I nothing, but yet everything in between, all at the same time?

Do I have a loving family who loves me for me, and friends who knows me best?

I may once had, and most probably still do, but that doesn't keep me from taking things for granted. I have a tendency to do so.

Why is it that I whine and pine for things I can't have, but ignore about things that are most precious around me?

Why is that I procrastinate, when I can get work done in a matter of minutes?

Human beings are complicated creatures. I'm a perfect sample of this twisted population. I want to embrace my flaws and put them on display for the world to see, but I'm told they hurt people's feelings and I should keep them away.

Tell me, how can I find my true identity without having to betray the real me? How can I be nice, still with a little kick from the spice? Is it too hard for me to just try, or the world has asked too much from me? Sometimes the effort has to come from both sides. And I await the day when I go crazy, as two worlds collide.

History comes alive




















Everyone MUST watch this!! It's such a good comedy film. At first I thought only the good comedy actors like Ben Stiller and Robin Williams were in it. Was surprised to see Owen Wilson... At the size of a tiny figurine. This movie puts the word "fun" into history. It really does. Loved the whole Jedediah vs. Octavia thing. They look like a pair of tiny loving gay couple by the end of the movie.

There's this quote from wax mannequin Teddy Roosevelt which I really liked. Teddy was trying to convince Larry to fight against the problems of his job, and said...

"I'm made of wax, Larry. What are you made of?"

Deep, wise words from a wax mannequin of a great leader indeed.

I'm Willy Wonka

This week has been filled with awesome chocolatey goodies. Such a relief for a chocaholic like me. Thank God for Beryl's warehouse sales. Look what I've got...

















Oh yeah, I'm such a nut. Not all of 'em are meant for my consumption la. Some are for CNY giveaways. At the end of the day, what makes a gal happy? For me, it's just fulfiling to have tons of chocolates. In between me legs *lol*


















Speaking of CNY giveaways, I'd like to show off my baby. These are the CNY-themed chocolates we're giving out for BHR clients, partners and media relations. My first project ever!! It's been hard to get it done, but I finally did it. It's cute and unique and most importantly, my boss likes it. Glad the supplier was kind enough to get it done nicely, with such limited amount of time. Thanks Robin! Still got some flaws lor... But nevermind la. No choice edi.































Damn cute right?



By the way, meet my newfound love... Dome Café's Chai Latte. Here's the description right off its menu: Green tea extract with cinnamon, clove and ginger topped up with gently steamed milk and finished with a distinct lid of milk froth. Lightly dusted with cinnamon.
Since I can't have coffee, I've always secretly harboured a green eye toward people who get to enjoy sipping on the wonderfully aromatic lattes, cappucinos, etc. So when I had my first Chai Latte, it was love at first sip. The froth was simply divine, feels so soft and fluffy when your it touches your lips. And since it has ginger, the taste kinda reminds me of the good ol' teh halia. Can't really taste any green tea flavour though. I just love my Chai Latte. But I can't afford to have it everyday :(
