To all merry makers, did Santa visit ? :)

2010-12-25T09:41:00.002+08:00

6 more days to 2011.

Let me recap significant events I did and where have I been right from start of 2010.

. Catching-up sessions with my Monashians : the sheesha-ing, various eating sessions. I LIKE!

. Resort World Sentosa !

. My first Batam trip in March with Wen, Farah and bf and bf's bff in March

. Our adventure like finally for seafood at Changi Village with Wen and Farah

. After-work makan gatherings with team

. Holiday : Port Dickson - Legend Water Chalet in August

. Discovery of love for grilled salmon over cream sauce @NakedFishShoppe, owwwwwww

. Holiday : Beijing

I am looking forward to 2011 with open arms, legs, mouth etc LOL.

Beijing. Last hol of 2010.

2010-12-25T08:22:00.004+08:00

Beijing was the last and ultimate getaway ( and most ex! ) of my 2010. The cold was below 0 and horribly pierced into the my hands amid the gloves. Luckily I was comfortably layered. Actually it was 4 : Long John ( Must-have! ), blouse, comfy wool sweater and the winter jacket. The overall experience was great especially with the tour group I was with. Excellent company!

After this trip, it made me so enthusiastic to travel next year. I am looking forward to ANY holidays abroad anywhere beyond Thailand, lol.

And to top everything, I am VERY glad that I bought my Powershot SX130 camera! :)

Prepared.

2010-12-12T11:11:00.003+08:00

The bags are ready on my BED. Hehe. Still a couple of mini tinie stuff to dump into my hand carry.

I am going with parents and sis family of 3. It's a 5 days affair and am looking forward to the itinerary like historical spots. I am ready with the shutter and hope the pictures will turn out good.

Temperature expected to be as low as -8. Yar...with my aching joints history, I am going to hope again that I will survive the trip w/o facing unnecessary and unpleasant moments.

After this trip, looking forward to gathering with gals and colleagues!

Saying hello later Xmas and New Year :)

Back in THE mode.

2010-12-12T11:01:00.002+08:00

I am back. It has been since forever I have not posted anything. Wat, like 4 months.

And I am 30 yrs old. Yarrr...30. I am removing that damn piece of countdown on my right pane there LOL.

I am going to some cleanup now.

Oh and I am going to Beijing tonight. When was the last time I board a flight? No no ..not the budget one.

:)

SQ, here I come.

I will be back.

rain.rain.

2010-07-18T17:22:00.002+08:00

It has been raining since noon. I have no choice but to stay indoors cause it feels so cozy and I am lazing around doing NOTHING but jobhunting and Youtubing. Yes, a jobhunt. Yes, you read it right. I have to move on from whatever I am doing now but I have yet to find anything suitable.

I missed yesterday's KateSpade sales at M Hotel. Yucks. Again. You see, when I have bought something and there come the sale. On the same topic, M Hotel that is, was where an ex-user got married. Such a lovely couple. The bride's gowns were fabulous and she is so petite that shaking her hands was nothing, that was according to one of my other user's opinion. Teehee.

Of late, been watching a couple of movies and yesterday, it was Despicable Me. Cute little girls and one of them reminds me of a girl in Monster Inc. Find the little yellow things cute and silly. Syafiq and Amyra seemed to enjoy them but I think I giggled too loud at times. Buey Tahan la. The 3 little gals are orphans so there is a little soft side of me and tear dropped during the bedtime story scene.

Anyway, I am looking forward to Inception and Sorcerer's Apprentice and lotsss more.

Its already middle of the month, YEAY!

I wanna get out of these grey clouds.

2010-05-23T22:30:00.001+08:00

I wanna smell the greener grass.

clouds got cleared for now.

2010-04-24T11:03:00.002+08:00

Some clouds have moved on. More to pass by in a few days more.

The number just kept increasing. Salute to my desk agents for guarding the frontline and doing their best effort.

I cannot give up. I must not.

Happy weekend !

the sudden urge.

2010-04-12T23:24:00.002+08:00

Really didn't know what got into me.

I had a sudden urge to eat seafood mayo croissant @ Delifrance.

Licked the plate like brand new. Haha :)

And after so long, I had grilled fish for lunch :)

Felt very healthy. Hehe :)

Alhamdulilah.

2010-04-12T23:10:00.002+08:00

Syukur to the new role. Syukur to the incr$ment. :)

its Sundaaayy man.

2010-04-11T14:29:00.001+08:00

Chores are done. I am going to hunt for lunch. A movie of swords and hunks :)
And one caramel frap plssssss.. :)

I NEED MY CHILL!

Family is the most important thing in life.

2010-04-11T10:00:00.004+08:00

Do not miss the times with your family. Pressure at work is part and parcel of life.

During my poly days, what I only think of was going out with friends and staying out late @ night. Chalets, BBQ, school activities/camps.

When I was in a relationship, for close to 2.5 years I stick with him anywhere and everywhere. Went against all odds to be together but at last, it didn't work out. I gave up.

Being away, I have missed a lot of things with my family during my uni days.

Things happen for lots of reasons. I am putting my best foot out to become a better daughter, sister and an aunt. :)

I do not want whatever happened to me in the past to repeat again. Failed Love and work. I hope for a safe smooth-sail. I hope the best for my parents. :)

I am very sure that they miss the Old Me. The bubbly and loud one. :)

I am in groggy mode.

2010-04-11T08:51:00.006+08:00

We had "fun" yesterday to Jaya Jusco @ Tebrau City. We MISSED the bridge! hahaha. As usual, mum made some noise. Luckily dad was cool. Hahaha. Cos partly it was my mistake of telling him NOT to go up the bridge. And second, when we U-turn to go back to the junction BELOW the bridge, we MISSED it again. And we were on our way to BUKIT INDAH/NUSAJAYA/TUAS. haha. But we didn't give up cos I really must shop! haha. And at last, we reached and the time clocked was @ 6.30 PM. We got out of the JB checkpoint at around 5. So the "fun" ride from checkpoint to our destination actually roughly doubled! hehe. Thanks to me. hehe.

Anyways, we kept our cool because we want to have fun eating! And so behold the spread below. :)

I was so super dooper hungry ( skipped bfast and lunch ) that we, the 4 adults shared 1.5 whole chicken. Buahaha. I tell you, the parts are HUGE. Dad and I took half chicken each. :) The total bill was like around $70. Not bad.

I shopped in only one area of Jusco dept for nearly 2 hours. Fuh.

The kids went to Toys R Us and ended up with swords and shields. OMG! Syafiq couldn't find his birthday present there so yeaa, they ended battling. :)

We came late and ended late too till to the extent that the mall dropped most of their entrance gates. haha. Nevertheless, reaching SGP in an hour's time. That is totally great!

new theme.

2010-04-10T02:45:00.001+08:00

new theme. more posts. :)

bubbly bibbly blubby is back.

2010-04-10T01:04:00.007+08:00

WOW. jennifer hudson is HOTTTTTT.

Ok, that's wayyy too side-track-ed. We have stepped in the 4th month of 2010. For now, and for me, it looks quite a smooth-sail in terms of work. Now that I have an additional role up my shoulder, I really hope that I can succeed in it so that my resume looks prettier :). Not saying it is difficult or easy, but I hope I can survive *Well, no one says it's gonna be easy :)* But someone really has high expectation of me. Needless to specify who it is, I will put my best-est foot front.

We have 8 months to go before I turn 30! Arghh. Oh shit. Not 8. It's 7. Arghhh. Wait, shall I start on my TO-DO-B4-30 list ?!! hehe. The last thing in that list will be to go for holiday WITHOUT my parents. hahaha. Not malaysia, but wayyy further probably heh. Bangkok is out due to the Redshirts. Indonesia, been there. China, Ok that is reserved for next year. Australia, dammit. Big sista is over @ Perth now for 2 weeks! Europe, ok..I do not wish to continue anymore because that place, it will not happen this year for sure.

Another sista actually asked me along for Umrah. But the thing is, I am not ready. Money, time and hijab. For sure, I will be ready if I were to settle down in a permanent job with more leave days to pounce on :) This is the hindrance. Well, God will make it happen for me when the time is right.

Last week of March, a couple of galfrens, guys and myself hopped onto Batam for a day. Never been there and so, I was abit "jakun". Most of the time spent on walking and them, lots of shopping. hehe. I was looking forward to seafood and yeah baby, it was good and cheap! Gals, too bad lah the massage didn't work for you. hehehe. The makcik indon who massaged me was a solid one. The biggest spender went to one of the guys :). Such an irony right.

Early April, it was Amyra's 6th birthday. Oh, to be precised it was on 6th. Big girl now. And a very smart and talkative one. Presents and cake cutting after a couple of years in hiatus mode. It turned out all well. Next Saturday is one of the nephew's 9th birthday. Mum was giving ideas to celebrate in a hotel room. Alot of $$ to spend lei. :) If for my birthday, ok lah. haha. Wait, I am reserving that idea for my own.

Since I have this PAssion card, I have been watching movies like nobody's business. Hell yeah! Very good deal. Anytime, anyday, it now costs me $7 only. What else can beat that man. Unless you use NETS @ $6 from Mon-Thurs. But hell yeah, 7 bucks for weekends! Wooohoooo.

So far, I have watched :

Alice in Wonderland - 6.5/10
Whip It - 7/10 ( I love Ellen Page! )
How to train your Dragon - 6/10
Date Night (Just last night, and it was a good laugh!) - 8/10

Later this afternoon, I am hopping over to JB for shopping!! This time round the 2 kids will be tagging along. OMG. I have 2 new little buddies to accompany me for movies and shopping. hahaha. Habis lah duit aku. hehe. :) But actually, it is fun to have them around. One who is so talkative and the other one, mischievous. As long as they behave when I bring them out, it shouldn't be a problem. :)

I love them!

Miss Talkative.

Mr Mischievous.

The crazy aunt.

The moment I saw the flyer, I had to go and eat them! These are the cheesy bites @ Pizza Hut! They made a comeback!

Seafood @ Harbour Bay, Batam.

Ok, I think it's quite a drool right.

Movies I am planning to watch soon :

1. Kick Ass
2. Last Song
3. Bounty Hunter
4. Shutter Island
5. Iron Man 2

Fuh. Kiasu Singaporean, Make full use of the card lar hor :))

work.

2010-03-20T15:35:00.002+08:00

Work direction is a bit murky for now. It is almost coming to the end of the month. Outcome of job interviews are way bad. I f***in hate this.

Nevertheless, I am not going have that as a hindrance to my peace and happiness. For now, I am going to let things flow easily. Be it.

Long Holiday.

2010-02-14T13:30:00.002+08:00

A prosperous Tiger New Year to all celebrating this festive.

How fast time flies. We are in the mid Feb now. Work contract is going to end this March. Changes will be happening soon at work. People will be very busy. Nevertheless, I do not care neither less nor more. What I have in mind now is to move on. That is permanently staying put in an organization. I hope that one will land SOON, Insya'allah.

Work aside. Play time. Oh yes. Like finally, I tried EighteenChefs. And it is recommended. Especially if you like Pasta. For me, I love it so no complaints. Apart from Pastamania, I have this alternative. And it is way cheaper, if you don't choose the ex ingredients. Can try making your own pasta/baked rice :).

Planning to RWS next week and am looking forward to end Feb and more plans in March :)

Siti & Krisdayanti - Tanpamu

2010-01-28T13:20:00.001+08:00

OMG. This song is so the touching man. And I loveee it :)

Sungguh sedih dan mendayu2. My CHINA colleague agrees too. He doesn't understand but he knows.

How universal music is. :)

2010-01-18T14:00:00.001+08:00

I spent half of yesterday sleeping after a dosage of Beaflu-Plus. Somehow, my nose kept running.

Not a surprise that I lost my voice since Saturday. Had a Friday night-out with gals till wee hours.

Saturday night, splurged my throat on BBQ stuff. Wahaha. Hey, not my fault. I just had to enjoy them.

Well, good that I don't talk that much. So that I do not need to response to anyone. :)

Gosh, its 2pm!

The fab 4, Just like Old times.

2010-01-16T10:44:00.003+08:00

The truth does hurt but God wants me to know, that is why He sent me there. He's really in a relationship and I am satisfied to know that it is actually the truth. Gals, if you are reading this, it's a blessing that I actually changed the location from Popeye's to our dining venue yesterday :).

Okay back to the main agenda, I was with my gals :

We were catching up with latest updates, "karma" stories, CHOCOLATE, chillout@Timbre and more discussion on future outings. A good night out. And definitely a good release of tension/frustration night. :)

Fat?

2010-01-10T10:13:00.004+08:00

I just got news that my closest nephew has put on weight!

OMG.

The last I saw him was @ New Years Eve watttt. He looks normal.

Sis said his thighs are bigger now.

Haha.

The latest pic of him on 31 Dec is - >

How fatter can he get in a week ?? Hahaha.

Handsome sak dier :)

Leaving.

2010-01-09T13:43:00.002+08:00

Just got news that our service delivery manager is going over to a greener pasture. Seriously, I was shocked. He is seriously a very FUNNYYYYY guy. The last outing we had together with the team was Avatar 3D and the first was @ the very expensive restaurant in the office compound. Looking forward to a meal together before he leaves for the better. :)

Cool ?!

2010-01-09T13:40:00.000+08:00

Is this cool or what ? My new template for the new year. Yeay :):)

A great year to start with.

2010-01-09T13:03:00.005+08:00

Finally, we met. How many donkey years have we not seen each other while here ? HAHAHA. Ok, I exaggerated. I am expecting more of these to come soon :) It has been a great long while since I catched up with the rest of my Monashians. :)

I am so looking forward to Max Brenner and Mr Popeye next week with beloved mini-es. My little..errrr..what do I call him eh ? Oh. Nephew! Wah liewwww, it just slipped off my mind, that word haha. It's my cousin's darling son's first year this coming week. So his celebration is on the way. Lucky lucky boy. Pictures..more pictures coming up soon.

I have been wanting to have CHIPETTES plush toys!! Where the hellio can I get them man? Yaaa, chipettes and alvin & gang altogether. Damnier. Argh. Pls someone pls tell me. Geez.

2010-01-03T18:38:00.002+08:00

i need to sleep over it.

a good sleep. don't think too much of it. i hope it will go away. it's gonna be in my head and it will disappear days later (i hope!)

Fraser's Hill. The closing ceremony of the year.

2010-01-01T12:26:00.007+08:00

Fraser's Hill trip was the last trip of 2009. Insanely, the cold (18-19 deg) has not once at all made my legs/back ache. I love the cold. I love the fog. I love the very British-looking houses. :)

Welcome 2010.

2010-01-01T11:58:00.005+08:00

Hellooooooooo 2010.

My big 3 is here finally. Syukor Alhamdulilah that I have reached to the beginning of the new level. And by acceppting that fact( :) ), I have a resolution. To take care of my health and appearance. Number 1 in the list : No / Lesser soft can drinks. How about that ? :)Well, I have to start with something small. Number 2 : Save more spend lesser. I'm not gonna grab the stars from the sky, if I know what I mean. I want to take things easier for this year. What comes along the way, if it's for the better, why not right?

I am very sure that there are alot more single ladies out there. Of late, what my sister has been emphasizing to me, somehow or rather my brain is slowly digesting it. And probably God wants to send me the message. " If you want to settle down with someone, just make sure that it is someone who is worth spending your life with. No heart pains and no regrets ". Regrets. I remember a saying which says "Do not regret with things you had done but regret with things you did not do". Well, if marriage is the concern, probably the regret is "Should have stayed single", hehehe. Everything happens for a reason. Blessing in disguise. As for me, I pray and seriously hope that 2010 will be a more blessing year for me in any terms :).

2010, I hope that I can travel somewhere far. I do not know where but sis was suggesting China at the end of the year. 2010, more family bonding. Nephews are in Primary 3 now. In all, they have grown up so fast. More love for them :) 2010, my team with who I have went through all odds and swearing and stuff, hahah. I hope it will stay that way. 2010, I HOPE I WILL LIVE THROUGH IT WITH NO REGRETS AND MORE BLESSED DAYS, INSYA'ALLAH.

A&W Romps. Lady Gaga.

2009-12-06T16:56:00.006+08:00

Finally, makan trip in JB with colleagues happened somewhere in late November. We had A&W for lunch. I bought some tops and ended the day with Sushi King! Yeay. Very sumptuous treat for the weekend.

Oh ya. I am going for the sushi AGAIN during Christmas. hehehe.

And then, the trip to Sunway. The agenda was shop for wardrobe stockups and eat. Particularly, A&W!! hehe. Sis. She remembered our indulgence back then when I was studying there. Their chicken back then were superb. Hot and Juicy! And I swear, those were not added with any black pepper yet unlike the ones now. They were the HEAVEN-iest chicken ever. Nevertheless, we still indulged in their

1. Root Beer
2. Waffles
3. Curly Fries!

:)

I don't like with the float. Just pure root-ly beered :)

I managed to get an hour leg massage which cost like SGD 30 bucks. Visited the dining place where I used to have dinner/lunch during uni days :) Had my fav cheese nan + tandoori chicken :) I did not manage to take pics because I was so bluddy hungry.

Oh. And as of now, I am officially hooked on the Lady Gaga-ness :)

Lady Gaga Bad Romance Live on The Ellen DeGeneres Show

2009-11-18T13:49:00.002+08:00

Ehem ehem. I am currently @ Starbucks in PSA sipping mocha frap with this sinful creamy and rich whipped cream.

Before lunch, I was in a worrying state when user called me from an event. The thought of travelling to the hotel made me feel sick. LUCKILY, it got self-resolved with a simple shutdown and restart of service. PHEWWWWWWWW.

Seriously, donno what happened to me. My appetite suddenly BOOMZ. Hehe. I think it was since the day where my birthday fell on. Couple of weeks ago. Hmmm.

Wha

Genting ?

2009-11-16T23:18:00.000+08:00

Genting trip ?

Ah, Langkawi ?

2 more weeks :)

2009-11-16T23:13:00.002+08:00

I am so feeling like getting out of this country.

When was the last time I stepped out ?

Err.

Ahh ya. Was Mersing. :)

That was only for a day.

I miss the days in KL with all the eating and shopping.

I miss the days in Melaka with all the eating and shopping.

I miss the days in Sunway with all the sufferings, he he he.

Too low pay or no one wants to do the job ?

2009-11-15T13:41:00.003+08:00

I realised that a particular bus service provider has started to employ non-Singaporeans who do not know how to speak simple English. For goodness sake, send them for classes.

2012.

2009-11-15T13:10:00.003+08:00

I have been there yesterday and basically, in layman terms, Earth got displaced. And being a Singaporean who has not and wish not to experience extreme tremors of any kind, the effects are quite disturbing. That is to me. Overall for effects, I give it an 8.

Ah, I forgot. I recalled. I felt a heart-weakening jolt when I was in Petaling Jaya. While seating on the chair slogging for my practical, I felt my chair jolted. Dumbfounded, I looked around. I felt the floor jolted man! A few hours later, probably through the night news there was indeed a tremor from Indonesia. Luckily when I moved to the top floor of the hostel during my final year, nothing similar happened. Btw, the top is 25 and I mean it seriously, it was such a PAIN to climb up the stairs when the lifts were under maintenance during a weekend! Stupid Management!

FT Island's website is not in English. Sucks bigggg time lah. :)

Nevertheless, I love their Sarangalhee.

it has been a month plus! and i am 29.

2009-11-14T09:11:00.005+08:00

FACEBOOK.

Yes, because of FB, I have not been updating this blog. Because of coming home late from work and because of niece who is ALWAYS waiting for me and getting into my room and switching everything that she feels deemed switched on LIKE my keyboard, my TV and my notebook. And how talkative she is now. Wah liuuuuu. Because of too much of HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL FROM 1 TO 3, i think.

Me: Amyra, aren't you tired of talking?

Amyra: It's my brain, watttttt. My brain control my mouth, watttttt.

Me: *dumbfounded*

This is how adorable my chubby Amyra is, or Eyra haha.

So, I have turned 29 on 7 Nov. Thank you to Farah,Wen,Ezila&Aqel,Diana,Aziah. It's the thoughts that counts that you guys still remember the date :) I am touched ESP when BONG comes into my life. Yes, BONG.

And how cliche it seems/gonna be, another year to the big 3. Hohoho.

But, what's in the number right ? Most important, how have You developed into a Person/Human Being in the sense of Attitude/Personality/Character?

I am still the old me. The old me who
1. laughs all her heart out.
2. likes to spend her time alone more than having company (yes, gal..i shared with you this)
3. Continuation from Point 2, I also enjoy company. The right one, definitely.

:)

The new me, I realised that I
1. am more organised with work.
2. can't stand messiness esp on my working table.
3. can multitask and prioritize effectively.
4. can get things done without being pushed.

And on Point 4.

Work is never going to end. Everyday, there is bound to be requests and problems.
Problems can be either easy to be solved or the more complex that you can't even imagine. Nevertheless, with the right tool and assistance, even the beyond-imagination-unsolvable-complex-est kinda problem can be solved eventually. It just takes a simple question/search and importantly, WORKAROUND. :)

Yes, workarounds and alternatives are slowly going to be my 2nd bestfriend,the first that is GOOGLE. hehe. I am slowly digesting how a person can be so calm when faced with problem and be positive. :)

I wish I am like that, but not that I am not calm. But, I prefer to be calmer :)

Calmer BUT quick when faced with users ESP the demanding ones. Possible ?

I have been in the supporting line for almost 6 years now. So, I have a upper hand in user handling. If you face a bad experience, learn from the mistake which you might have made. Even if you think that you are not in the wrong but user is always right, that's what they think and just let them have the feeling. My method is yesss, you are good and yess you are right but if i fix YOUR doing that caused the PROBLEM, who is going to have the last laugh heh? :)

29. I pray that I meet someone good.

29. I pray that more "rezeki" comes in my way.

29. I pray that life goes smooth.

29. I pray that I can reach the big 3.

29. I pray that I become a better person with God's touch :)

Amin Amin, Ya Rabbalalaminnn. :)

team mates are the ones who made me going. :) plans, plans for team-gathering. yeay!

cloudy cloudy, meatballs.

2009-10-03T09:40:00.002+08:00

watched it with nephew. the colorful food esp giant scoops of ice cream which remind me of SWENSENS (coincidently, colleagues and I were talking about the swensens buffet icecream @ ION orchard outlet), jellybeans, cheeseburgers, doughNUTs, pizza, meatball spaghetti. oh God. even before the movie reaches its quarter, I have already gobbled down 2.5 cheese hotdogs and half of sweet popcorn with ice lemon tee. :) really a foodie movie :)

the littlest things.

2009-09-28T08:26:00.003+08:00

*tuning to RIA 89.7*

aurashai n hafiz glamour never fail to give my daily morning boost. suker betol @ both of them. very the kecoh. the teka-tekis & the sabo2, their gaji on every 25th hehe.

was in Kluang yesterday with cousin's family. hari raya visits to my aunt's and her children's. makan2 tak dilupakan untuk dinikmati esp kak ani's asam laksa. this is the thing. i have never liked the white mee laksa and i thought that i am going to despise it for the rest of my life. but i was wrong. just like how i used to not eating honeydew or bean sprouts last time, now i have learnt to swallow the white mee laksa. and it is not bad after all. so the saying is true after all. if you happen to hate something, sooner or later you will like it. it applies to human beings too :) or probably LOVING them hehe.

anyway, sometimes the littlest things in life which we miss noticing, when we ponder and look carefully into it, we will realise we have missed it big time. :)

we must learn how to laugh. how to love. how to appreciate. how to be grateful for what has been given to us.

do not be envious of other pple who receives more than us. because once the envy is permanently in our soul, whatever we have now will be gone in split seconds. so pls be grateful.

for those who have known me long but actually didnt know that i love nature. i love taking candid pictures of human beings too. i always have this conversation with my mother, about how nice it will be if we can spend hari raya @ kampung :)

<- we don't get to see these in sgp. ->

these are my cousin's children. except for the one in green, they are a little deprived. so the littlest things to us mean so much to them especially asking them to pose for photographs :) it's a bit heartening seeing them sometimes. but i can only see them once a year :)

this is part of my maternal side :)

ahh finally.

2009-09-26T07:15:00.003+08:00

finally, the layout is back to normal. i thought that it is gonna be forever that i am going to desert it :)

a month of fasting has passed and its 7th day of Syawal. i had a pretty long weekend and the moment i was at my office desk, there the brain froze. serious, really no joke. i didnt know what and where to begin with. it was a complete 10 secs that i just sat and paralyzed! :) i brought some cookies for fellow colleagues and most of them landed inside my mouth. hehe. like crazy having these stuff around me. i like it that the week is short and ALHAMDULILAH, my days went quite smoothly. since weeks before fasting, i have always wanted my Starbucks caramel frap, my old time favorite. last night after work despite having an aching neck due to the really uncomfortable 1.5 hrs NAP during my journey home, i made sure i landed myself in Starbucks. Yummay it tasted so good (finally, my craving has been fulfilled). with my sudoku (CLUEDO version, bought it @ pageone), it was a very satisfying 1.5 hrs of coffee, numbers and ambiance until.....

(Miley Cirus' Climb ringtone...)

At the other line : Mak Su, Tok Ki ask, when are you coming back to send me home ?

DOInnkkkkk. It was little niece. Luckily, I was almost done. Else, it would have turned out to be a very bad Friday Night. Just imagine while having the first sip and the hp rang.

i have checked out some beginner keyboards which cost $199 @ Best Denki, Junct 8. Surprised that there is one under Yamaha. So probably, I might consider it before CASIO. Ah, while browsing at Page One, i bumped into Keyboard for Beginner kit!! hehe. It comes with CDs , manuals yadayada but there wasnt any price tag. Maybe i shall go back again and if everything is in order, i will grab it. i have not decided the spot in my room to place the keyboard, but definitely i need a power source. actually, i am left with not much choice. actually, i can only place it at one place which is near my window and my pretty curtains, hehe.

family and I might be going for a shortie trip to aunt's place in JB tomorrow. apparently, dad is on clinical drugs and he couldnt drive. so, yeaaa..probably i might be driving and Monday is my official absence from work !! :)

2009 HariRaya Light Up @ Geylang Serai.

2009-08-16T17:23:00.000+08:00

i have watched My Proposal and find that Sandra Bullock is way out of the league co-starring with the male lead of whom i do not know what his name is. Nevertheless, Sandra is amazing, just like Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan :)

after that, we made our way to Geylang Serai. Mum's craving for KEBAB @ the new geylang serai market place brought us there PLUS the hari raya lightup and we spent some time at the nearby carpark where several local artists performed at the ceremony :)

it is a 6-letter word.

2009-08-15T02:12:00.006+08:00

this word makes my day and in fact, it will to others. it shows that customers are being appreciative towards our service and effort placed and the promise we made have been kept promptly. i like today or should say "yesterday" because of two things which are 1. i kept my promise and 2. thnk God its friday again :)

Singapore turned 44 last sunday and neither was i @ the stadium nor in front of the tv to watch the same old stuff. in fact, i joined the rest of the nation at shopping mall. probably i could be mistaken as a "foreigner" by other fellow singaporeans who were busy checking stuff @ Daiso as well! being among them, i received the vibes like who cares, those $2 stuff come first yo :)

recap : i enjoyed msia's national day via live firework displays @ 2 separate events. those are the closest to national day which i seriously enjoyed.

same routine, work work work. train, bus. bus train. of late, the train service disruption @ Pasir Ris. caught a Suria actor/calefare who works @ Jurong East Mrt Stn and was in action with his walkie doinkie. i have no idea what his name is. ah, after Fiza O, i would love to meet Sarah Aqilah, the newly-crowned winner for Anugerah 2009. Amazing vocal with WOW factor. she is going to make her cut, if you know what i mean.

i am gonna save more money to get either a PSP or keyboard, not the computer keyboard but the keyboard with nice tune coming out if i have the golden touch. hey, now anyone can self-learn. after my disappointing failure with guitar, hopefully history will not repeat itself and having to give it a pass. NO Way, Yes Way.

i am into this book called "Will She or Won't She?" and have yet to reach half of it and it is gonna be due next weekend. i have a strange thing when looking out for my read. this is soooo strange, believe it or not BUUTTTT i actually look out forrrrr the color of the book and it is PINK. yes. PINK. any shades as long it is PINK :) yes, it is weird of me.

i received compliments from the boss and a client and it read :

1. You have good initiatives, good attitude and has the charisma to wow customer. Your help to the team has never deminish since you cross from the incumbent company to ******* which your experience has been duly share within the team....

2. Glad to see that you have managed to brave through many challenging times during your work in *******. Keep up the good work. Well done!

How I so the wish that i get a raise or something!

BTW, the word is THANKS. :)

yasmin ahmad. alfatihah.

2009-07-26T12:31:00.001+08:00

sepet, gubra , petronad ads. great work.

teach me to be bold pls ?

2009-07-25T21:43:00.005+08:00

hi...been so long heh. probly been checking on fb acct often than updating this bloggie of mine. anyway, life. working life, not much excitement to share with EXCEPT that there is an eye-candy now :) its not tat im looking forward to work EVERYDAY buttt because things are nottt gg that well @ work these few weeks, even an eye-candy wont help but at least it eases me abit , he he he. ok tat sounds like a cheeky gal.

AND NOT TO FORGET FELLOW MONASHIANS IN MSIA, WHO GRADUATE THIS YEAR, CONGRATULATIONS GUYSSSS! :) FRESHIE GRADS, GO OUT THERE AND GRAB ALL OPPORTUNITIES. I WISH YOU GOOD AND BEST LUCK!

had a swelling good time with family and relatives for bbq. it has been a long time also since we had bbq/chalet event. guess that everyone is too busy to organize one and cousin and I just wanna see justice to be done! hehe. so finally, we had one last week which apparently, it didnt start on a gd note, i mean with another group of outsiders but that didnt ruin our mood at all. life goes on la.

i have watched JANGAN PANDANG BELAKANG CONGKAK. pardon me, but i find it kinda silly but at the same time hilarious. it was abit overdone esp when the 3 humans transform into ghosts. once twice ok la, but after tat, kinda bored la. out of 5, i give 2 la. azlee did a decent job thou.

i have been busy with the fruit king. be it durian puff, durian cake, durian roll, durian pancake, durian ice cream. fulamak. durian craze. fellow colleague likes treating us to durian icecream and the Scoopz @ Parkway Parade is great. like it so much. they sell in tubs of all sizes and its quite affordable too. they have other flavors like jackfruit, coconut, soursop and the usual choc stuff etc.

and tadaaaa...the new pasar geylang serai reminds me of pasar larkin, the cleaner , newer and bigger version :) looking forward to bazaar raya!!!

this week sucks.

2009-06-19T22:25:00.003+08:00

this week is the suckiest i have ever head since the start of 2009. suckiest things happening @ work. sucksssss big timeeee. nevertheless, its friday. no way i got affected. life goes on. im happy. and tomorrow, THE family will be hopping into our cars and off to Melaka. this is seriously last minute plan. it works. last minute plan usually works as compared with a plan made wayyyyy donkey years AGO! so going to have a longggg dip in the pool, and get myself all patched up. oh and not to forget to my dad and great daddies all over the world.. H@ppy F4th3r's D4y!

kris allen with Heartless @ American Idol Season 8

2009-05-24T11:42:00.002+08:00

Unfortunately, this clip are just shots. they have removed his original live vid.

kris allen. 100 millions.

2009-05-24T11:13:00.006+08:00

surprised? i was, definitely. i didnt think he was that good during the finale. neither am his fan nor lambert's BUTTTTTTTTT i loveeeee his rendition of Heartless. LOVEE ittttt. i have always loved guitar sounds but unfortunately i do not cultivate those skills. bought one, not even half way through and i dumped it with my nephew who was barely 8. remember my keyboard ? farah, yes? noooooo i have not. hehe :) i have their sale pamphlet thou.

that aside, i am probably going for THE weekend getaway again sooooon :) Tuan "Agong", here i come!!! this time, more to chill&relax themed with a crowd.

adam vs chris.

2009-05-15T00:42:00.002+08:00

if you have not been following, adam gives me goosebumps when he sings and chris is so shy and goody2 type but when he performs, it just surprises me esp last night's 2nd performance, Heartless. he has potential. but for him to win the idol, well i am abit skeptical and it would definitely hugeee disappointment if adam doesn't, we never know. ah well he is already shining like a bigggg star! and i hv to add this, hes bloody tall. reminds me of imran ajmain :)

on a happier and lighter note, i am going to have an early weekend. with things going around in office for the past week, i need to break (*screechhhh). i am happy with things @ work. very nice and approachable and supportive manager with team mates whom i can get along well with. but seeing my members one by one taking a break, i just need to take one. BUT when i see the boss' face, i have a very strong feeling that he was abit hesitant. so, being direct i asked if there is any issue with me taking a day off, i was expecting really a No. hehe. well, its fair enough that i could handle things alone w/o complaining when my buddy is not around. so i dont see why not if its the other way round, right. ANYWAY, its long overdue :)

Helloooo early weekend!

big spread @ clementi woods

2009-05-09T14:54:00.006+08:00

Tak boleh ANGZ! after working so hard for weeks, finally it was buffet with fellow team mates and boss. i enjoyed the spread especially the cheesy seafood, prawns and durian paste! sungguh yummy!

Cheesy seafood and Mini Pizzas.

Chicken chop and Shushi. Gambate!

Cold Mussels, Sausage with Corn, Spicy Prawns, Mr Dumpling & Miss SiewMai, Miss Sambal Sotong.

the climax DURIAN PENGAT!

much awaited break and FOOD GALORE!

2009-05-09T12:51:00.015+08:00

The much long awaited break has come. I was in sunway since yesterday and my main agenda was to shop for clothes. Why out of so many places? Cos its way cheaper here as compared to back home. 6 tops for $98. Who doesnt want! Well, at least i m a very happy woman now.hehe. my main objective has been met yesterday plus the little ones' stuff. So its siblings' stuff today. 3 hours in the same departmental store.can u imagine that. I was beyond tiredness actually and abit agitated at the end of it cos i couldnt take it. Finding tops for others and deciding over their sizes, whether they can fit it or not, hehe.i tell u, it was tiring. Didnt know getting tops for others is tis tiring until today which i swear will be my last. Actually, it was mum's idea and in the end, i paid for them, hehe. Well, once in a while its ok. They couldnt join us, too bad la. sunway pyramid is getting bigger and there are lots of shops man. But, not every of them are buzzing with crowds.but one thing for sure, no one will get hungry here cos i counted, there are around 112 cafe/snack bars/restaurants/fastfood/confectionery. And, im in one of them, where else but starbucks by the sunway lagoon. Enjoying mocha frap and american baked cheesecake.

They didnt have this here - American Baked Cheesecake

Food is a never-ending story here. even trips to Wendys and Subway, i dragged my parents with me hehe, including Baskin robin!

Woohoo, we're loving this.

They really enjoy our favorite makan place just beside the inn we are staying. Macam ader share je. Every single time we were here, for sure we would drop by to eat. And the makcik at the counter will always ask me, "maseh belajar lagi?". This time, in case she asks again mum is too shy to tell her that we are here to shop and eat so, "jumpee kawan mak kat sini" was the planned answer. And it did happen, she asked. The eating place is called Restoran Sri Bidara, RSB in short. It is located right beside Sunway Pyramid. This is a place where you can find mostly MAN United's banners decorating their walls. If you like having your dinner outdoor, they have it there too with big display screens for you to enjoy news/MTV/the ever-favorite EPL matches.

After hours of window shopping and spending which i think i sud seriously stop for now, i can finally rest my poor feet. Pictures of food below are those that i miss since i left this place. Btw, there are missing company. Gals, if u read this, probably u gals are bz with exam preps etc. we will catch up soon ya! Oh, next on the menu tonite, maybe i will see SOP EKOR! I wanna eat steak!

And i got my juicy steak :)

Juicy tender chicken satay @ RSB.

My must-have cheese nan @ RSB.

They prepare this by sticking the dough onto the wall of this big hot barrel, wait for it to bloat abit and its cooked. have it with this special sauces and even lagi best, TANDOORI CHICKEN. YUMMY!

Had this for breakfast and check out the fish on the right. who eats nasi lemak with IKAN KELI haha.

the story about this ikan keli. i didnt know how to eat this ikan keli until one fine day, i tried it and never stopped hehe. back during old days, i had been observing fellow coursemate's lunch plate and he described this fish as "very very crispy" as its deeply-fried especially its tail. it doesnt have that kinda fishy smell and i just have to try it. following that day, this deep fried ikan keli officially became my must-have item especially with vegetables and kuah lemak, woohoooo. aiyoooo, best la! and recently, i got to know that they breed in padi fields, huhu.

Surprise surprise, ex classmate Ferdi was there. Double-ly surprised, while we were doing some catching up, came the couple who were at the counter with the gal digging notes from her new wallet, haha. We were talking about you before you appeared, speak of the devilooo. About whether you still remember Ferdi, hehe. Ezila and Aqel, very nice to meet you two there plus Yani and Remi who were there too for dinner :) Nice to see familiar faces at old place heh.

Before this trip, I had Carls Jr at Vivocity with officemates and first thing i asked the ehem Malay gal(I think so she is cos her name sounds like one), whether they serve pork, I ended up with cheesy fries only which was oh well, not to my expectation. its the chewy kinda cheese and i was expecting something like KFC's cheese fries but much better judging by its price. And so, I didnt wanna miss my chance of getting Carls Jr burger there. It was a rush actually. Did my last round of shopping before we headed back home and popped by Carls Jr. Its my first time so I didnt think much what to eat so I just choosed something based on my instinct. This big fat juicy looking mushroom cheese burger which cost me RM18 and another slightly smaller beef burger, which in total cost me RM 27. And when it touched my tounge, it was amazing la. Huge, juicy, THICK. hehe. whats their line again ? some prefer it long, but others prefer it THICK ? heheheh.

I like it THICK @ Carls Jr!

All was just worthwhile. Sisters were happy with stuff which i bought.(pheww) Ah, i had my wish come true. After many failed attempts, it is nice being back at a place which i spent quite a while in :) and seeing familiar faces around. This is just Sunway, not yet other places where i used to hang out with the 3 little minies, hehehe. :) There's always another round heh!

Cheers!

17 again : Taken

2009-04-19T22:43:00.003+08:00

believe it or not. i slept for 17 hours. what was meant to be the "drink @ starbucks" actually turned out to be the "sleptOnBedForEntireLife" :). the reason probably must be the hectic nights which i spent over the past 2 weeks and thus returning home very late at night. it was like working for almost 10-11 hours everyday anddd yesterday was the ultimate longest sleep i have ever had so far i remember. the tiredness actually snow-balled. SO, that explains the luxury of spending time watching 2 movies. why did i watch 17 again ? it was because *drum roll* i find zac efron very nice to look at. and so i went. he has such outstanding features esp his eyes, nose and sweetttt smile and nice teeth too. the movie is just okay with abit of fun here and there. whats with MILF and teens lovy dovy stuff. go figure yo. next up, Taken. to me, this show is wayyy awesome. liam neeson at that age to be the lead, hmmm its kinda weird actually to see him killing EVERY
ONE singlehandedly. he reminded me of STEVEN SEAGULL! and the music in one of his fighting scenes so reminded me of bond. i give this movie multi-thumbs up seeing also the fact that its a no1 hit in US. the plot was plainly expected. nevertheless, from my point of view on one thing about movies getting into box office is that, if it reflects whatever is truely happening around the globe, the possibility of it becoming a hit is way high. oooohhhh, i loveeeeee when baddddd men get killed/tortured. bad badddd mennnn.

this is cool. i like it. yeay!

2009-04-18T16:41:00.001+08:00

this is so convenient. i mean if im on the go somewhere where there is wirelessSG, i can just swear and blog if anything pops up. u know, its the kinda busy period esp this coming weekend. i am just hoping that at the new place, not alottttt of hiccups will happen. God, pls help :)

on a lighter note, i feel like getting my ass now to hmmm, maybe a drink @ Starbucks after i settle my mobile bill of which they EXTRA-INGLY charged me 5.80 for a month of free value-added services. i have made the call with much composure which is quite unlikely of me. but this round, at the other end of the line i think it might likely be a malay lady, so why spoil someone's mood on a Sat morning who already have to bear calls from other UNREASONABLE subscribers, perhaps. hehe.

this was sent thru email.

2009-04-18T16:29:00.000+08:00

is this even working ? duh. i know it should. if it does, yeay! :)

desperate for break.

2009-04-18T01:07:00.007+08:00

after much hardwork packing for the office re-location and meeting the deadlines and running all over the place to get things done, i need to do something over this weekend which starts today! it was nephew's 8th birthday yesterday and after a hefty fish and chips,sundae,toys and while mum and the 2 aunts blabbering, gossiping and letting out anger and frustration over sumptuous dinner @ swensens, he fell asleep on the table. argh. i didnt take that pic. :)

nevertheless, the 8 yr old birthday boy.

didnt know what he actually likes so i called him up the day before. XBOX and PSP and tonnes of games. what else he needs but the next fav thing is ben10. i was actually caught up in getting the toy fixed and swearing how it actually functions. at last, we got it but it wasnt that impressive enough as impressive as the price!

actually i feel lazy. its hot and im sleepy now and its only 4PM.

tat aside, i feel like having a trip back to memory place. wonder how things are like there now :) i must get out of here.

hola.

2009-04-06T00:18:00.005+08:00

its 15mins past 12. and i just downloaded some pics. was busy with facebook. will update this bloggie. i am happy. but weekend is over. my stomach is way bloated and today is niece's 5th birthday.

(Yesterday) Niece on the phone : "Do you know tomorrow is my birthday?"

Kids nowadays.

i watched confessions of a shopaholic over the weekend. and after spending a pretty hefty amount for my new E71, i tot to myself..this shopaholic is hell crazy! any woman out there being this very extra-ordinary towards SHOPPING? tat aside, this movie is good man..way gooddd that i have a very very good laugh over this shopaholic's selengehness (clumsiness). i love her character and seriously, with a good-looking lead actor hey, things get more juicier yo (*drooling*)

i am not in the SHOPAHOLIC category (lemme see, last month it was a digi camera ONLY) SO i am not feeling guilty at all. so finally this...

i still remember, the last white handbag was from my dearest monashian gals. and white reminds me of my watch which cost me $20 @ vivocity AND my bro thought it was 100++.

and ultraRED-looking E71 :

HE HE HE :)

a story behind this phone. over 2 days, its my 2nd set from Singtel. the 1st one wasn't meant for me. i need not explain :)

upgrade.

2009-03-22T15:38:00.002+08:00

i did some color shuffles and the header above is created by Sergej Gorodenskiy, Russia. Free stuff, why not :)

why the eyes?

2009-03-22T15:21:00.001+08:00

well, through them, if nothing is being spoken, they will say lots of things :)

i want nobody nobody but you.

2009-03-21T21:17:00.007+08:00

heard of Wondergirls from Korea?
didnt know they exist until i heard them on RIA. you know when they keep repeating similar track on their morning show. so i thought they must be good and its "Nobody". very catchy track and it reminded me of PUDAR by Rossa. catch them @ youtube. their MV is cute and with an element of humor. their dancemoves are kinda cute too and amazingly ultra-synchronised hence its really nice to look at. very young bunch of gals, as young as 16, yes i wikipedia-ed them. :) their founder planned to have their US debut soon so hmmm... i think they are just like PCD. they can dance and they can sing, thou i cant understand a thing but hey, music is universal.

i am officially a strawberry-addict. bought a box of korean strawberries from coldstorage. munching strawberries. really didnt see this coming until i read a blog which i have been following up regularly. she loves strawberries and chocolate ( heard about the strawberries-chocolate "hantaran" from Datuk K to Siti Nurhaliza ?). and because i believe that i should try something which i think we should do it and not delay so the outcome, i am addicted to them hehe. it all started with strawberries mini tart from delifrance. they are juicily gooddd. yummay :)

picture speaks thousands wordsssss.....

BTW, whats the meaning of a moth dropping by your room ? bad ? andd it was my wardrobe.

had them for my camera tests hehe.

OH and also, will this template work when checking out our local guys ? :)

1. Are you single ?

2. Are you gay ?

3. Are you working ?

hehe.

great great (Now tuning to Rock Hits @ RIA, jiwang beb)

2009-03-15T02:28:00.006+08:00

it was a great saturday. the vcd which i bought ages ago, finally i had it unleashed from the plastic! i have read its novel some time ago and it was the first i read from Cecelia Ahern, following that, one or two more. She is the daughter of Ireland's Prime Minister and i have mentioned her in one of my archived posts. most of her novels are of romantic genre. i like her writing style and definitely, the romance :) i had my fav BJs ready andddd the review of this movie, it made my cry at some points, wayyy critical. i feel emotionally attached to this movie, seriously. i have never cried this much since Ayat-Ayat Cinta. depending on him whom you love dearly and losing him, so heart-breaking isnt it? and knowing that he is gone and he wants you to live your life, moving forward and falling in love again, that is so haizzz... i cant think of any words. oh pls, it is hurting me. BTW, hilary swank is HOTTA! her smile and teeth remind me of Julia Roberts.

There u go, movie + crying + B&J's , well icecream is the comfort thou.

P.S I love my pixie!

i was out for sanur befday treat some weeks ago and a friend was sharing with us about this chocolate KINDER egg which comes with a COIN. Coin? u mean money coin? and so i heard it wrongly and it was TOY! (probably, it was the tahu telur or kangkong) a choc with a surprise. i have never had that. i guess its childhood-deprived kinda feeling hehe. and so it cost me $1.70. before opening, i grabbed pixie in case some adults out there kinda wonder whats inside these eggs. so one side is the chocolate which comes with a mini-spoon to scrap out the choc (been eating the other kinder which comes in 2 biscuit sticks of mouth-watering chocolate, so that is nothing) and the other, the surprise. and it was ......

cute stuff and it is a convertible!!! heh heh.

ah, BTW i just remember that i will be putting out the P-plate on 19 march 2009 andd the best thing is, I have not been driving since God-knows-when. Shux.
(OMG, on-air now : Tiara by Kris. Check tat out on youtube ! Juara Lagu. Memory lane yo.)

moving forward, work. i am happy with whatever i am doing now. cant grumble too much now that well, things arent tat good as before, i mean economically. so alhamdulilah with watever im going through now. thou it is hell tiring from mon-fri but well, great weekend is the best remedy :) i am just soo waiting for the end of this month :)

now that i understand.

2009-03-08T21:30:00.003+08:00

slumdog millionaire is extraordinary. in such a way that it gives a message that impossible is NOTHING. there is totally nothing to hide from this movie. i think whatever we see in this movie, is happening out there. not only in india but other parts of the world too. the storyline is great. the director is genius. the actor who played the grownup "jamal", he looks too boyish and to play someone who is way too poor, for me i think that is quite out. nevertheless, he's okay. at least the grownup "salim" looks more convincing. and i like the two little boys. they are sooo cute esp the little "jamal". for amitha bachan, diving into a pool of human shit is nothing yo! :)

hard work, hard play

2009-03-07T23:30:00.005+08:00

barney & friends were among my first objects :)
i lovee my new coolpixie! finally, i can start clicking away :)
look out for more pics, coming soon :)

was at suntec city today for careers/education exhibition and like other career fairs i have attended last year, it was a disappointment. despite knowing that all too well, i went ahead with sis who just started her job-hunt. a dear monashian gave me a ring last night and my oh my, we have not had the chance to meet up yet. had a very sumptuous and well-deserved dinner at Sanur after so many donkey years. tahu telur and BBQ sotong are the must-havesss! i must get chocolates from Amadei. i came across this review about how good they are, quoting "a must have before you die"!!

coming this april, i will be with my new team of 4. this is my first time working in a team this big if i were to exclude end-year project teams back in NYP. touching on that, due to my sux-ling programming skills, i didnt contribute much in that area back then as there were smarter people around! was just an average stud who had so much fun in after-school activities. so that explains all. 3 years and i didnt practise what i have learnt even up till now. its like permanent erasure from my brain.

do not regret with what you did but instead, regret that you did not do. i regret that i didn't know what i wanted in life. it started way back after O level results in 1997. if I were to carefully decide what i wanted on that day, I would have gotten it now and being happy doing it. i am good in numbers and i should have known that and explored opportunities wrt to that strength. but i did not. i regret not doing that. nevertheless, life goes on and whatever i have achieved along the way, i am grateful to Allah. He loves us.

the unexpected.

had a very blushing moment at cafe galilee when i was offered dessert by a guy which i tot it looked good and actually mistook him and another gal as a couple. hehe :) whichhh this reminded me of a very sweet similar gesture by a crew guy many years ago at a starbucks outlet @ HDB HUB. i was offered a slice of cheesecake for FREE! huahaha.

and of the cafe galilee guy, that is so sweet of him, isnt he. :)

dirty.

2009-02-17T23:08:00.004+08:00

i feel sorry for the msian politician. how humiliated she must have felt. cruel. dirty play. ahh-puikkkk!
Rot in Hell, rot in heelllllll.

and also how insensitive some reporters can be. pls lah. how would you feel if you have your face printed on national newspapers, mourning for your loved ones. i feel that their act is so inappropriate. where is the privacy, i wonder. people were mourning, and they were busy clicking. that should not be the way, thats what i think.

and i want to complain. i am so pissed off with the train crowd. i know everyone has to go to work, but having people standing as close as brushing your shoulders, groins(hehee..), stomach and worst, READING TODAY/MY PAPER...dont these pple have brains ? i find this attitude so inconsiderate. already brushing against one another and yet, still have the cheek to open up your papers. distribution time for these papers should be reviewed. dont give them the papers during rush hours or make them pay for them. the readership will plunge down like crazy. why pay 70cents for a paper if you can get 2 for free! KIASUISM.

talking about kiasu, a msian once pissed off a sporean for being one. ok, that is just random. it happened during my uni days. its not about me, for sure. talking about kiasu, who rush for the escalator down knowing that you cannot go down further cos someone on the right just refuses to move his ass. talking about kiasu, QUEUING UP FOR 15 MINUTES, just for a newspaper.the catch : FREE. talking about kiasu, not giving up seats that are clearly stated in bold "PRIORITY SEAT". talking about kiasu, placing TISSUE PACKETS/UMBRELLA/NEWSPAPER in order to reserve eating table. talking about kiasu, the list goes on and will never stop. i should write a book. :)

hu(ngr)ray!

"kalau ni pastamania halal, aku confirm kerja kan".
(if this pastamania is to go halal, i will confirm "work" on them, (wth was that!))
thats what i have been mentioning to sis so many times cos their cheesy pasta looks so yummayyyy and thats gonna happen definitely. hehe. those cheesy white cream is gonna soooo land onto my tounge one day. just gotta know today when i spotted alottt of makcik2 enjoying their dining. probably i will drop by at their other outlet during lunch tomorrow :)

i saw this bronze nokia e51 held by a woman ytday and i tot it looked sleek, slim and cool. i am considering to get that besides the samsung pixon which i am considering as well buttt the downside of the e51 is that it comes with a 2mp cam which is as pathetic as my current w910i. but looking at how big their buttons are and how slim its body is, probably i might consider it. i bought mum a new easy-to-use nokia hp as a pressie for her befday this year, and dad got his new GULION(Goldlion if u wonder) shortsleeved shirt. well, my dad is quite fussy about everything esp his personal items and i have to say this, HE HAS TASTE. hrrmpph. about mum's new hp, she just have to be given a new one cos she was seriously struggling with one model with all the small buttons etc. and bro sponsored a secret recipe befday cake, the YUMMYYY banana choc. i didnt know they went halal-ised for quite some time.

i have learnt something abt my mum. if we were to ask her whether she wants something, she will say "no need la" which means to say, just give me and don't ask. hehe :)

benjamin buttons touched my heart although my bum itched after 2hr 45mins and it was slightly quite a bore, not until the last few scenes when he transformed into a toddler and last, the dying baby. ohhhh its just so painful.

with all the wildfire and recession and all, OX year is not that OX(Y) after all heh.

the day when humans get controlled by ...

2009-01-31T13:04:00.003+08:00

humans create internet. humans create super-muzer machines of all kinds, super "chimp" algorithms and robotic mechanisms. for what? to make life much more easier. make processes flow efficiently yada yada. BUT, what if their creators no longer have control of them anymore. God-knows-one-day, these super-nano-secs-read-write-process mechanisms have minds of their own ???!!! ARGHHHHH. watch eagle eye. u'll know what i mean. *this movie really had a tremendous emotional impact on me*

"Big brother is listening"

uncertain all over.

2009-01-24T10:34:00.005+08:00

the last i posted was like more than 2 weeks ago. work was hectic especially when there is org restruction. that has got nothing to do with me BUT when it comes to IT operations, there are likely to be more new and change requests. the environment is getting "hotter" and everything have to be done fast.

lately, waking up for work had been like a torture to me. its like in my mind, i have to be there facing God-knows-what-else. despite all these dugaan, i just need Allah to guide me and gimme the strength and the ability to stand on these 2feets to go thru the coming days. i need to be stronger internally.

on a lighter note, its long weekend. i will do my very best to slack! btw, i was at MOE HQ yesterday and i went excited and turned into a JAKUN. their lifts do not work like how normal lifts do. you must be wondering why is that so ? lemme explain :

How does normal general lift work ?

1.Press Up or Down button at any of the lift entrances

2. Once the cabin reaches your floor, light/sound alerts you and you will walk over to that lift

3. Once inside the cabin, press floor num

How does MOE HQ lift work ?

1. Press your FLOOR number on the panel which comes with a display screen and wait for a while to see the alphabet that will appear to guide you to the corresponding lift(yes, i am typing correctly)

WOW. how much did they spend on this lift system? i was impressed so i just have to share this and while in the cabin, i did some eavesdropping and samsung building also has this. besides their lifts, security clearance are systemised. respect lah MOE. :)

13th January 2009, cousin was doing well after natural delivery of my new nephew. Emir, healthy and alert. barely 2 days, his eyes were wide opened scrutinizing the people around. smart boy. shall post his pic soon :)

i had a very strange dream last night. it was about a Monashian fren whom i hardly chatted and stayed contact with since he left for somewhere else. we were in a room with some people which i couldnt make it out who they were and he was trying to tell me something through writings on a pictured frame on the wall. clearly i could see his face smiling and trying hard to tell me something. the funny thing is he didnt want other people who were sitting with me in the room to know what the message was and that frame actually was able to slide and expose more pictures within. i saw some scribblings on it but i just couldnt figure out.then, he signalled me his stomach and gestured his hands which looked like a bum (a pregnant woman?) and somehow the word milk came to my mind. a pregnant woman and milk and himself. what is the meaning of that dream? the only thing that i hope is that i can get hold of him and share this with him :)

cleaning up.

2009-01-11T15:47:00.003+08:00

we need to do some clean up of the past so that it is not stored anywhere which we might bump into one day. ya know, like photos. unlike memories, photos capture the moment as though time froze for that slight seconds. but how about photos which we don't want to be reminded of? Del key. move on.

talking about moving on, my cousin has moved forward way ahead of me. soon, she's gonna have a baby boy and last week, she just moved into her new, lovely house. isn't that so timely ? and to top up that with its location which is near my siblings'. im so looking forward to see the new family member :).

i have not moved on anywhere else. but i am hoping that i could make a difference. In what ways ? Only God knows what's in my mind and heart.

Bedtime Stories is not that great but it is hilarious. adam sandler rocks heh. Probably its message , "Live your dream" might have lingered in my head throughout the movie and once out from the cine, it just poofed, hehe.

Basically, a break did me good after going through a hectic week @ work. I needed that.

Actually, this thought has been going around my head recently. Why work your ass off and not knowing when you will not be around anymore to appreciate what's more important in life : family.

photos and family. i give thumbs up for "One-Hour Photo". it deserves a watch.

A department store photo clerk, Seymour 'Sy' Parrish, is exceptionally knowledgeable about photography, and has been developing photos for the Yorkin family since their son was a baby. However, Sy also lives a very solitary and lonely life - with no wife, girlfriend, or family in the picture. Sy begins to develop a disturbing obsession with the Yorkins and what they have, and when he is fired for theft he goes over the top. Having discovered a disturbing secret about Mr. Yorkin, he exacts angry revenge in a chilling manner...

2009.

2009-01-01T16:37:00.004+08:00

Happy New Year 2009.

a brand new year. a fresh start. :)

but first, to Istifarah who is definitely busy with her darling in KL or wherever you guys are, Happy Belated Birthday, The 25th. this lady keeps saying shes old but hey, me? ancient. :) people get old, no worries lah. so which hotel? huaha.

so what happened to me since i last blogged.

1) was at sgp flyer. frankly, there is nothing much to oo-aah about except for the "top of the world" moment.

2) i couldn't resist mall-hopping.

3) because of point 2, i couldn't resist splurging on rings. i was crazy over them. thank god, i told myself to stop this crazy habit. but i like them. who doesn't? it started with the silver then the humongous glittering stones. i gave some silvers away because i ended up realising that i do not need them and being the generous soul, other people wanted them so why not. :)

2009. what i have to do is less shopping because i think i have spent enough. probably for the next 6 months, window-shopping is my main itinerary. furthermore, i am very good at intervention. if you need someone to decide whether you should make that purchase, probably you think you are splurging or on the spur of the moment think that you WANT it, i am good at saying NO. so i save your day, yeay. i do not buy something suddenly. when i keep returning to the shop looking out for that item, i would be so ready to pounce on it the moment it is on promotion or i have looked somewhere else in vain. or another method, within the next 4 days, if the salesgirl gives you the impression that you are attempting to shoplift, i think you should just buy it :)

no new year resolution for me. i just hope 2009 will be smooth-sailing for me. Insya'allah. :)

statcounter.

2008-11-16T22:49:00.006+08:00

i am amused at statistics. knowing who looks for who and it reaches to my blog. geographically known. especially a combination of 2 people or a single one, probly whom someone who is interested to know about err whats known as web-stalking! i am just itching to tell these famous ones. but nvm. these statistics are only for me to know. and it just makes me smile and ponder. :)

madagascar 2 is cute. funny. king julian didnt disappoint me! i feel like putting him as my wallie!

oh, they are lemurs!

chance ?

2008-11-15T01:30:00.004+08:00

the time now is almost 1.30 AM. i cannot get myself to sleep so here i am, blabbering. here we go.

actually, nothing. i have nothing to talk about. the past week, been busy with what else. i hv always wanted to try the sakura international buffet. and surprise2, they have opened a new outlet, of all places, Admiralty Park just beside Republic Polytechnic. you have an educational institution, industrial factories, isolated jungle nearby, a park and in the middle of nowhere, an eating place hidden underground, thats the best! hehe. nevertheless, i might pop in soon.

oh, SKULLL holiday have started and i wanna watch madagascar 2. funny squirrels, esp the king. err , are they squirrels? nvm. i just need a jolting boost of humor. work is draining my energy OUT, mentally. it requires solving and figuring out. thats what i do. it keeps the brain pumping and it is draining out. probly the cells might come out flowing hehe. eeee, tat reminds me of that hannibal movie. ee phewww yucks. you know the scene when anthony hopkins cooks a guy's brain while he is breathing. worst, feeding him with his cooked brain (errr, am i exaggerating ? its a bit vague, is that part in the scene. hehe). eee! stoopid scene. i hate tat scene. it is so beyond imagination. disgusting.

andddd, hopefully the sun is shining brightly at the other side, the greener pasture :)

O.

2008-11-07T09:56:00.009+08:00

i was at suntec to attend a briefing and on my way back to office, i spotted Donut Factory. it was hard to choose from a wider variety of flavors unlike Munchy Donut which i am quite sick of now. deliciousmicious.

from left: oreo cookies, chocolate covered with peanut butter top, white choc covered with orange top.

i didnt get to taste the oreo cos i gave it to mum. probly its all the same. but the other 2, splendid.

i decided to play around with my blog colors. you know when you see things the same over a long period of time, you get bored. ah, same goes for working life. everyday, (out in morning, back at night) X 5.

i have watched quantum of solace. the action already begins from the start. nothing much different from his first, david craig is all packed with muscles and fighting skills. and probly a disappointment for guys out there (am i right?), no on-bed-or anywhere-possible-*** scenes at all except for the wrapped-on bedsheet huhu. BTW, i am such a mountain tortoise. i didnt know SEIYU is long gone for BHG. but it look the same afterall. i was taken aback actually. at this time where job lay-off might be a possible (a start for DBS, ive read), there are alot of on-going sales happening. and this has made me a member of the subset :)

obama actually makes a good model. probly suits and watches.

bitch on the loose.

2008-11-02T18:46:00.004+08:00

food for thought.

i wonder what makes the shameless bitch think that she stands a chance to wreck another woman's marriage. despite having known that he is married, she still threw herself at him. desperation? disillusioned? or mere stupidity?

what makes her think that she can have what she wants. did she mirror herself first? probly, it is just a fantasy that she hopes to be a reality at the expense of the wife and kids.

what makes her think that she is good enough to be happy after wrecking his marriage? i mean personally, why would the man even want to leave his soulmate and kids for this bitch? doesnt make sense at all. definitely shes a cracko. seriously speaking. she needs to get laid somewhere else, probly somewhere in her own class.

shocking.

2008-11-02T00:32:00.009+08:00

i did not expect this day to come. i was caught unaware. often seen it in reel life. the news that shocked me. and the cause - a shameless bitch.

Quoted:
"BITCH. A she dog, or doggess; the most offensive appellation that can be given to an English woman, even more provoking than that of whore." ["Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue," 1811]

not joking. i am dead serious.

perkahwinan. banyak dugaan. bertunang pon banyak dugaan. godaan kerja si setan. bitch tu setan betol.

on a lighter note, i am very happy for ezie (*winkwink*). taman bunga. u know, azura. oh, talking abt azura, reminded me of ali setan and tat reminds me of ogy who acted as asmida. new staff with similar name will be reporting for work soon. and that brings me back to sec skul time. in malay class, there was a classmate named Ali. and i was known back then as As. so yeaaaa, Ali and As. the rest, i need not say. he is a shy and short boy. tats all i can remember, oh and he has a mole on his right or left forehead :)

i was in swensens yesterday anddd i had this very very sinful cookies cream ice cream/choc fudge mud pie. it was incredible goodness. must try. @ $8.60, with $1 off wif any HSM3 set meal. sweet-tooth peeps, pic below. yummmmay.

starbucks cheesecake, its like eating one chunk of raw cheese but not Gelare blueberry cheesecake belowww slurrppp slurrpp slurrrp.

this is a note for you --> You can do it, lil sis :)

HSM III

2008-10-28T20:10:00.003+08:00

one word : talented.

i was BLOWN AWAY by their dance-moves. its like they were born to dance. these teens are seriously good. i am surprised. there were one or two which made my mouth opened like a fish gasping for air haha. butttt there is only 1 that made my eyes glued to the screen. the boys at the junkcar place. i was bored with the kiss (nothing great)but probly the kids' eyes were popping out. im just looking at 2 itching teens like what i saw in the MRT when i was on the way back today. MALAYS. such a disappointment. it needs 2 hands to clap, so there they were, smooching like the cabins were empty. they were already behaving like that in public, so i am not surprised they were all over themselves somewhere else in private. hohoho.

buat malu masyarakat jer.

the hard way.

2008-10-25T23:33:00.007+08:00

what we really and hopefully want, quite unlikely to get it.
pple say, if its meant to be ours, it shall be no matter what the odds are gonna be.
sometimes, i do not understand how it works.

its a long weekend. a plan which is supposed to be a family holiday trip, will not happen cos everyone has their own agenda to get busy with. anyway, i am not a big fan of HSM (just like a niece who loves "Gabrella", did i get it right ?) butttt becos its a big hoo-haa over the internet and the media, i happened to look out for its trailer. coincidentally, nephew wants to watch it so much and so we are going for HSM3 tomorrow(*i still cant believe that i am gg*). probly, there is no other better movie since 007 will be released in 2 weeks' time(*david craig yum yum*)

i feel like catching rihanna in spore coming nov. but to think again, i hardly listen to ANY of her albums. the only significant one is Umbrella (it all started from ezie who sang to it in farah's car OR was it thru the station) and the few others like Unfaithful, Take A Bow and Shutupanddrive. kylie minogue will be in the house too, probly end of this yr. the itchiness is getting all over me quite soon. (*scratch*)

off the record, I HATE MORNING RUSH AND CROWDED TRAINS.

back on the record, i wish i own a good digicam. i just hv to rely on my hp cam(2.0MP), dad's Nikon(4.0MP) or others' higher MP cam :( sometimes, i didnt even bother to take any pics with the lower ends. sigh.

personally, i am starting to realise that pics that are taken candidly depict the true moment captured as compared to the un-natural ready-to-snap-say-cheese-smile-cramping poses. 1 was doing some random pic-viewing. check out some of the candid shots. the collage below is a collection of earlier events in 2008.

nephews and nieces, my little darlings.

there are quite number of things i wanna own or do. i have not taken any action on my hair. ah! good news is that since i have been using shampoo that contains natural fruit/vege extracts, my hair has grown to quite a length. darn LOREAL. whatever it is, use natural products. i wanna own at least 8MP digicam (they are cheap now!). i am SUPPOSED to start a new pastime which i have yet to start my engine on. i wanna watch concerts. and the best part of all, all these are not needs. they are WANTS. geez!

past 300th post.

2008-10-22T20:03:00.003+08:00

i have passed the 300th mark way back, i didnt realise. have not been updating for quite sometime here. where shall i start. hmmm.

we are nearing to the end of hari raya. but to me, hari raya means to last only till the middle of the month. i was back at my uncle's home at mersing. finally, i am in a kampung area, with fresh grown fruits either at the backyard or the frontyard. i enjoyed coconut, rambutans and water guava (translated from jambu air, its red, err i dont have the pic). we had a small feast courtesy of the hosts. and was with all my aunts and uncle (maternal side). and the great thing we enjoyed was that teasing my nephew and a niece who lives in JB. hehehe. how not to tease. they were playing and sitting together under the tree with the groundmat. so sweet, reminds me of a movie scene like those which starts with childhood days yada yada. awww. but abit of a spoiler cos dad was beside them sleeping! hehe. i enjoyed the nature. the wind, the breeze. i am a nature person. unlike the concrete jungle we have and the bloody human crowd every morning and after office hrs! benci sungguh.

oh. good news for my sister. shes doing her masters next year :)
dad was asking will i be the next one and i was like NOoooooOO! cukop!

Work. im getting busier as days go by. serious busy with capital B.

yesterday, i watched Cukop Tak Cukop on Suria. Singles. yes like me, single. ouch ouch, yes it did hit me quite. but like wat one of the single speakers said, jodoh di tangan tuhan. for me, for wat mencarik, if bukan jodoh kiter. let jodoh find me. waste my time finding seriously. give up. pple say that when you are not looking, it will look for you. and the only person now that has been telling close relatives around how come i have not met anyone is my mum. alamak, i feel like telling mum to go and find for me one lah! hohoho.

application is opened now. come come, register. :)

syawal 2008.

2008-10-02T16:33:00.003+08:00

this ramadan, i feel so satisfied that like finally i get to fast with my parents. ya know, the kinda feeling close with family and i get to be involved in preps just like old times. queuing for shredded coconut as early as 7am, LAST MINUTE hunt for daun ketupat at pasar geylang. its fun actually. but pls don talk about helping my mum on raya eve with all the cutting and chopping of ingredients for hari raya food. i have not been in the list for so many years hehe. my job is only to ensure that the house is clean and neat.took my nieces and nephews for mini-fireworks at the void block. i have not purchased a new camera yet so i used my hp cam but they look quite dark so i think i shall not post them here. everyone were very happy. sisters stayed up till 12 mn and the next day, i fetched them at 11am! haha. damn tiring. i was still up till 2am to vacuum the house again. nevertheless, it is all in the name of Syawal.

as usual, parents' nieces and nephews will visit them and i will be the busiest person in the house. luckily i am on leave for this whole week so it doesnt matter that i help out although its quite tiring but fun actually. meeting not-so-close relatives whom we have not been keeping in touch except only on Syawal. oh, the diff about me this time round is that its my time to give hehe. duit oh duit.
im starting to drive around, ferrying siblings alone hehe. like finally, my dad doesnt have to tag along. probably its time anddd i can park the car now! ahhaaha. it started with no cars on both sides, then one car on the right, then 2 cars on both sides. ahhaha. drive already but donno how to park, sounds silly right. there is alot to learn actually :)

i just received my Huawei USB stick for Broadband on Mobile. for a start, the speed is not as marvelous as my wireless broadband. probly, it might take some time or not. hehe. it is time to review my bills and spending looking at the fact that alot of stuff are expensive now. i can feel the pinch, oucha!

Ross Revalina.

2008-09-27T07:28:00.002+08:00

i totally sux with happenings in the malay local scene here. totally. i dont know whats new and whats current playing on air and whats worth listening or getting to know about. my dearest cousin, aziah has been my SUPPORTING FACTOR to my already-lousy-malay-music-database, hek hek.

thank goodness, YOUTUBE. my savior.

so my msn conversation was like this.

aziah: gal, have you listen to novela cinta by revalina. favorite seh.

me: what? who? jap, aku YOUTUBE dulu!

and WOW! they are superb. and novela cinta is gooddd plus their vocal yang mendayu2, which sometimes or rather lots of times give me goosebumps each time i tune in to the vid below.

oh and i GOOGLE-ed about revalina and found that they actually were from the reality talent competition, Live Your Dreams. buttt i think the lead vocalist of the original group stayed on and the current 2 are new. and as usual lah, the most good-looking one is the most outstanding and receives the loudest applauds!

appreciating it.

2008-09-26T22:55:00.003+08:00

i am declaring myself that i am the happiest person on this earth. hehe. it just feels good when i treat people nicely without expecting anything in return. and i have been making a sin. yesss, err not 1 actually but a couple. i have been pampering myself with new stuffss. i donno why but probly i have not done it tat often. a brand new watch, jewelery(!) and ok this is very awkward. i dont usually fancy silver jewelery but maybe because of my sis who had been splurging on them of late, and i happened to hangout with her, so her DISEASE had spread to me. butttt buttttt, often it will take me very longggg to consider buying something but once i have my eyes on something i really loveeee to own, thats it. i would just grab it ASAP. no delay, no re-consideration ANYMORE. swoosh swoosh.*tit**tit**tit**tit**tit**tit*. there goes my money. but its just alright. something that u love to own, why not right! :) i have been telling myself, whatever i want or do, by all means own/do it as long as it is within my means. yeahhh, i am living that up. so be happy. so have no worries. to all problems, there are solutions. it is just the matter how we reach to the solution. dont worry too much at work, dont be too stressed with skoolwork. all this unnecessary stresses are just making our lives difficult, not better.
be POSITIVE. thats the way *oohoottt**oohoottt* !

next on my list, will be stuff for hari raya. hehehe. probly new curtains for my room and a fresh new beddiesheet. hehehe. semangat raya beb!

ideal sisters.

2008-09-20T12:02:00.002+08:00

heard of them before?
how about this song? :)

hanya sekali, ku lafazkan cinta.....

for you esp for first love and probably you think, it will be the only one, i dedicate this to you :) probably, the one who is farrrr away, hehehehee ;P

cant find lyrics for this. so those who complain that i post youtube with no lyrics, listen and figure out yourself. :P

anddd we have their raya song..

alamak, karaoke version lah.

somehow, i found myself you-tubing very oldskul songs, for no apparent reason. probly, youtube has like everything so once in a while, to have these pre-2k classics in the playlist, it gives me some kind of new breather or something. well, oldskul still rocks lah.

im youtube-ing for more hariraya vids so that i can have them compiled in a cd and bring out the raya spirit soonnnnn for spring-clean. oh btw, from my waist down, to my right, it hurts badddd. it has been a week since i did spring-clean phase 1. esp if i get myself up from sitting posture. urgh. sakitt dokk.

mum is busy altering sis' baju kurong. long sleeve, bottom too long. haiya. luckily mine is just perfect. well, even if there is any, i would just have them errr folded. hehe. one thing abt my mum when it comes to altering stuff esp CLOTHES, she will get us to try it on over and over again. thats what i hate about. so, to avoid that, dont complain and start folding. not difficult wattt. to me. :)

i find this is too fast. i feel that its just like few months ago that we just celebrated hari raya :(

my internet connection sucks. i want to change to broadband on mobile soon! and we will be getting MONEY soon!! yeay. will be going to my photo grad shoot today. bro had his done few months ago for his masters. so, there hangs his bloody huge portrait. i know, all these from me. random. there are so many things which had happened. but im too lazy to update the rest here.

oh finally, check out this link. http://www.blockstatus.com/msn/delete-checker. who deletes/blocks you in MSN Messenger. you might be surprised. i had my surprise. but hack care lah.

this is hilarious. at any point of my blog, did I give any impression of being Iqbal, an indon actor? huhuhu. so this is how a fan sounds like heh.

it has come to my realization a few weeks back, that i have not communicated with my parents that much. all this is because of work. work made me tired. work made me wake up wayy early in the morning, reaching home at night, couping myself in the room, having my dinner with my own tv. and i seldom have a talk with my parents.ya know, the parents-child conversation. 3 years i have spent away from home and it made me into a person whom communicate less with my parents. how could i do this? something has knocked some sense into myself. children are all grown-up and married and staying away from them. and i am the only one here with them. how could i be such a fool, not realizing this way back after i came back from studies ? Alhamdulilah, probably God made me think and do the right thing. dad has to go to terawih every night and i have to be home with mum. i get their favorite food on some of iftar. although sometimes i get "lectured" by mum for buying too much but its okkayyyy. as long as they eat and enjoy them, i am happy. i just want to show them that i care for them. i joke with them and i want it to stay this way. i just want the old times back when i was younger. my laughter used to fill up the whole house. but it just disappeared the moment i left home for studies. probably they missed that time. they are aged now and the more older our parents get, the more sensitive they will be. like feeling sad and down and always have those thoughts that their children do not care or love them anymore.

i guess money isnt everything in this world. without happiness and love, it is just an empty one. so, brothers and sisters out there who still have both mum and dad with you, please do appreciate and love them before both or either one leave this world. for you who do not have both or either one, i am sorry but no worries cos God will always take care and love you unconditionally :)

week 1.

2008-09-06T21:39:00.003+08:00

hey hey hey.

coming monday, it will be a week over. BTW, i just got onto the new google chrome. i find that its interface is very simple butttt if you are familiar with mozilla and IE7, i dont think so it would be that hard to get comfy with. new things are sometimes refreshing. oh, and i have got hold of an iphone, someone's actually. and i have no clue how to operate it seriously. i just gave up after trying to double-tap/single tap an icon haha. people can get it from walk-in @ hello shop with a new signup at 300+, so whats the fuss with all the booking ek.

pussycatdolls. i find them hoottt esp their dance moves below. seems that i cant stop playing it over and over again. anddd nicole's voice, since when is hers that rough heh. dont cha and beep, she looked so natural and sweet.

change.

and its happening again. its like a dejavu. someone new, giving all the unnecessary stress. esp the techy ones. sooner or later, probly my superiors will be dropping more hair. i hope mine stay intact. and i dont want greyhair tat soonnnn...

pre-ramadhan.

2008-08-31T22:07:00.003+08:00

a shout-out to fellow muslims around the world,

Happy Ramadhan!

Selamat Berpuasa.

sooo, i did my pre-ramadan shopping! i have never done this EVER before.

the pre-ramadhan hari raya clothes shopping plus it was a rush one.

YES.

i thought i was like the only one being kiasu or wat, but hell noooo. there were so many other people like me. grabbing hari raya clothes before fasting month.

i am glad that i have gotten mine. so that i wont be busy sweating myself under the bazaar tents in Geylang Serai during fasting days or even worst, during the geselan2 time after breaking fast. i knowww, people seem to be going to ramadhan bazaar either for food, hari raya shoppang or nothing at all. just walk around, look here and there. at least fill up some plastic bags and bring them home lah dei.

it is gonna be monday. sux. bye bye weekend. sob sob.

soft.

2008-08-26T23:21:00.002+08:00

i donno why but i do have this thing for guys who are SOFT-SPOKEN. not the lembek-soft ones. straight but soft-spoken. feels so good talking to them. and if they happen to have a cute smile, thats like a double bonus yo. ok, i will not beat around the naked bushes haha. one of these guys happen to be my vendor. a chinese fella. hes soft-spoken. i like talking to him. i donno why. probably i find tat he has that nice soft kinda voice. dammnn, how many times have i said this in 1 paragraph! hehe.

shopping. its wayyy therapeutic. i have heard it before and i just experienced it. especially when it comes just nice without any warning or sorts, like knocking into my head, its timee to spend daaa moneyy...helloooo....daa booshhh! buy tat! daa booshh, come on must get this ! ahha. and it just happened to me few hours ago. i just have to spend. funny thing, none of these are my needs! i just need to shop. i need to change some stuff. im bored with the same things. wearing the same stuff over and over again. pple need change. where is MY CHEESE?

gooddd! it must be the cheessseeeeeeeyyy lasagne i ate before the shopping streak! hek hek.

oh. obama's wife is hot! hehehe.. not the sexy kinda hot, but well she really stands out :)

unexpected events.

2008-08-24T10:53:00.006+08:00

the day after my choke got out from me, an unexpected twist of event happened. i guess, in the meantime i shall be looking at it positively.

and on friday, i was at swissotel to watch fireworks!!!

oh my! it was seriously superb. from 54th floor and overlooking everything. literally, not whole singapore buttt a 180 degree view of.....

this...

tat....

and this...

and down below is part of the soon-to-be-converted F1 track.

hek hek hek.

yeaa baby and i just have to get hold of a higer MP digicam. my phonie did not do quite a good job.

being there live, beats these pictures. i was so excited and it kinda reminded me of the good old days. from my hostel balcony, i enjoyed fireworks near my area. deepavali and national days and new year eves. and not to forget with monash mates back on the campus, practically woahh-ingg and oooo-ing at fireworks at sunway lagoon resort. hehehe.

finally its out.

2008-08-18T20:04:00.002+08:00

i have relayed the message. and the choke i have been holding has finally been coughed out.

i can sleep peacefully today onwards.

ryan and taylor?!

2008-08-13T20:28:00.003+08:00

ok this is a very odd AND beyond imagination couple. ryan and taylor as an item? that is so wrong. ok pple, they are from The OC. i find this serial very entertaining. the whole lot of them. ryan, the grouchy-looking and tough guy. taylor talks damn lot man. but shes hootttaaa! ehehe. i like her cute nose. and marissa not being in the picture is quite abnormal.

i just started on a new novel by jill winters. "Just Peachy". was searching high and low for something to occupy my time. actually, i wanted to settle down for another of mike gayle buttt the other titles seem dull, not to my interest. i have yet to reach a third of this book. it has something to do with having crush with a NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR. see, i can relate so much to that. i mean who writes novel, creates a character and relate it to someone who works in IT line. come on, who? haha.i dont read that much, probably someone out there can refer me to some titles or something. :)

anyway, something put me down recently. on monday, i was feeling so lousy at work. it is a choice i have to make. i have not decided on tat something yet. i think i have to give myself a bit more time. when i finalise it, probably i will release it off from the back of my mind and feel the peace and ease.

in the meantime, i just have to enjoy.

farah, you are right. hell with work. haha :)

national day.

2008-08-09T10:28:00.002+08:00

everyday to and fro orchard area and i did not even take the opportunity to walk around town until last night right after work. first stop was centerpoint. apparently, i think it is losing its touch. the only places which i think worth staying put are probably Robinsons, McDonalds, Starbucks, Coldstorage and the bank hehe. it was so much different years back. anyways, i decided to indulge myself with 2 scoops of Haagen Daz. My fav strawberry cheesecake and the same old cream and cookies. really finding trouble because i just got MC 2 days before. it was the itch in the throat. but, neither care nor giving any damn. when it comes to food, once you long for it, better enjoy them before anything else.

made my way from centerpoint, passing cineleisure, heeren and next stop was taka. hmmm, there are sales going on and the moment i entered, i was hoping to get something there but i didnt like anything there. was looking for hair accessories, jewellery and even a watch. but nothing seemed to attract my eyes even though they have damn large collections , like zillions of jewellery stuff but nothing at all seemed to interest me. i headed on to watches corner and it was pathetic. DKNY, Swatch, CASIO/BabyG/Gshock and Guess. and very little collection though they are having 10% off. but nahh. so to cut story short, went to wisma, and again the same disappointment and i went back with nothing EXCEPT that i truly enjoyed an outdoor performance right outside taka. i think shes from China and she played an old skool song from Jason Donovan - Sealed with A Kiss on a chinese musical instrument, not sure what it's called. seriously, it was so captivating. shes amazing with capital A.

and, i have finished the book i have been reading. a male and female, such good friends who love each other but in the end, did not get together. it was so sad. a good read.

robinsons sales.

2008-08-07T20:54:00.003+08:00

hero lies in you.

2008-08-06T11:03:00.002+08:00

donno why, but i have been feeling nostalgic for the past days esp when youtube-ing :)
came across mariah carey's performance probly in the 90's. i remember watching her performance over and over again on the video tape (yes, old skool VCR!). i think i was in love with her at that time. without you and hero are my favorites back then and now still.

no doubt, a powerhouse.

Hero - Mariah Carey ( <--- check it out)

There's a hero if you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid of what you are.
There's an answer if you reach into your soul
and the sorrow that you know will melt away

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you'll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you.

It's a long road when you face the world alone;
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold.
You can find love if you search within your self
and the emptiness you felt will disappear.

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you'll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you.

oh....Lord knows dreams are hard to follow,
But don't let anyone tear them away.
Just Hold on, there will be tomorrow,
In time you'll find the way

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you'll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you
that a hero lies in ... you
mmmm that a hero lies in.....you.

transitions in life.

2008-08-03T22:37:00.002+08:00

i have known close friends and beloved ones who have moved from one phase to another in their lives. i am happy for them.

i have yet to make my own. never know when will it be. nobody knows what their future holds. to initiate changes for the better, it takes lots of guts and risks.

i have learnt that until you do it, you will never know how easy it is and you wished that you should have done it way early :)

we should not regret with things that we had done, but should regret for the things we did not do.

one moment in time.

2008-07-21T22:02:00.003+08:00

this song is very synonym with achievements.

from the start till the end, all of these mixed in me

1. Goosebumps
2. Brain freeze
3. Chill down my spine
4. Hair stand

Seriously AMAZING.

People out there, i am sure there shall be or had been your only THE one moment in time :)

i had mine, the moment i stood on that podium :):)

mike gayle.

2008-07-20T22:01:00.004+08:00

mike gayle who?

friday night. i had dinner at my favorite library cafe and i was telling myself, why not pay the shelves a visit. the last book i read was from cecilia ahern. i like books of her genre and i was hoping to chance upon something like hers. i skipped her last title cos it's kinda bored for me. so aimlessly, i was flipping books on the shelves and when i was about to give up, my fingers did its walk to one with its author's name in a pretty large-sized font, even bigger than its title! mike gayle. i reached for its synopsis, and find it pretty interesting cos like finally, from a man's point of view, more or less i understand what is running in their heads! "brand new friend" is its title. i am like into 1/3 of the book and i understand why man really treasure their friends so much, what type of conversations they usually share and yada yada. :) now that i know, gals, knowing that his friends are so dear to your man, even the slightest mention of them might make him flare up, i mean when mentioned in a negative note. probably whatever you are unhappy with, somehow his friends are pulled into the picture and chances are, he might erupt and you shall bear the consequences. i wondered how mike gayle looks like until i was at Popular. he has another latest title with his picture on it. hes a black (actually, i didnt expect it at all) and yes, i am starting to love his writing! it is refreshing for me, indeed!

and so i wikipedia-ed him hehe. woah seriously, i think i have missed him, big time :)

shake your poms!

2008-07-07T19:56:00.004+08:00
