Intoxi'Kath'ing Whispers

"The new year is almost here. What are your new year resolutions?" *stones a while* I have nooo.... idea. I don't really do resolutions cause I don't keep them. If you randomly ask anyone on the road, I bet most of them will say, "To be better." Some will say smoke less, drink less, party less, lose weight, earn more money and vice versa. Huh! Oh, I know! My new year's resolution is to make a new year's resolution!!! Hahaha. Smart? I think I shall try to have some New Year's Resolutions for 2011 and keep them!!! - Be more streetsmart, less gullible and less naive. (Does this count?) - Be smarter and more efficient in whatever I do. - Say less stupid stuff... I seem to say a lot of that. Sigh. Okay. Three's the charm. Enough! Hahaha. At least these three matter more.... To me. *deep thought* Another conclusion and a new beginning. The chance to start all over again?? Perhaps. Maybe. I actually fear the new year.... Oh, I sh...

Good evening ladies and gentlemen. This is your pilot speaking... Welcome to the island of sun, sea, sand, booze, chocs, hunks and chicks. Langkawi!! Otherwise known as the Eagle Mountain. (Direct translation) My first (and last) family holiday of the year!! (10 days more to 2011) Langkawi was cool... albeit a few annoying incidents. I shall give a few tips and points should you intend to go there for a holiday in the future. All the better prepared... :) Places TO VISIT. - Wildlife park.... ***** (RM12 per entry) The interaction with the animals was awesome and great! There was this baby goat who would climb up your lap just to get some food from you. And it's so small and adorable, you actually feel like carrying it out of the zoo (which I obviously didn't)!!! Rabbits, raccoons, ducklings and many others...!! Adorable..! - The cable car...**** (RM 15 per entry with your MyKad. No IC, RM 30) Langkawi's Cable car is said to be the third highest in the world. ...

If you own a facebook account (most likely you do) or if you own a blackberry, iphone and what not kind of gadgets, you would most probably have seen OR use this application. Foursquare . One word to describe this app (in my opinion) : FREAKY All the while, I only knew that this app showed where a certain person was whenever he/she logs in at that particular venue. Like, so-and-so has just checked-in @ *blah blah blah*. Annoying, because it spams your facebook wall. Especially when the place they logged in at has no purpose. Eg. Famous Persiaran Kewajipan Traffic Jam. Like, what's your purpose of telling people in your FB? So they will sympathize with you because you are stuck in a jam? And it happens almost ALMOST e-ve-ry-day.................... (What's my purpose of telling you about it here anyway? Hmm...) I said it's freaky because I just realized how easily it can be used to stalk people. Went out with a group of friends to a dessert shop somewhere in SS15....

For Christmas 2010.... 24 days left till Christmas. :D I wish that I could make a difference in people's lives. No matter how small that change could be. I wish that I could be brave enough to take risks (calculated of course!) and face challenges that lie ahead for me in the future. I wish that I could be more sensitive towards other people's feelings. I wish that I could light up everyone's face with a smile and brighten up their day, no matter how bad their day or my day has been. I wish that I didn't regret some things in life which I did not take action upon. (Sort of) I wish that I knew where and what I am going to do. (But then... who exactly does?) I wish that I could be a better person. (Mentally, socially, physically and spiritually.) And, I wish that I could also find that special someone. Finally, I wish that I could just be me. :) I wish.

AAhhhhh.......!!!!!!!! I cannot believe that I actually got two free invites to watch Peter Pan the Musical in Sunway Lagoon but I am here blogging about my not being there!!! Urgh... The irony of it!!! I am supposed to be there... now... at this moment, watching the musical and perhaps heading on to SL Nite Park after the show.........But I am not!!! Because I didn't know I was one of the few lucky ones to be chosen! Huh. I was checking my email for days, inbox, spam, there was nothing. And the day (today) was getting closer. So I thought I didn't get chosen. Then I was too busy with other stuff I sort of neglected my email checking for three days. Till I got a call today, at dinner time, bout 8pm. And the pass collection booth closes at 730pm because the show starts at 8pm! The guy was like, "Is this Kathleen XXX? I'm calling from All Malaysians Blogger Project." When I heard that, my heart dropped. It meant I was one of the few lucky ones to be ch...

Rewards and punishments are two sides of the same coin – both are used to control people, and neither works very well. Was actually looking up the meaning of two sides of the same coin because two sides to every story is slightly different and I didn't want to use the wrong idiom. I saw the above statement as an example of the usage and it kind of, well, strike a chord within me. (Am I being bombastic?? Ha.) If what the above statement says is the Bible truth, then what are we to do? A coin to me is still a coin no matter which way you look at it. I can use it to buy stuff wert, no matter which way I pass the coin to the other person. :P So rewards are rewards and punishments are punishments. Is there a somewhere in between? Can we balance these two factors out so that both are not overused to control people and so that both work perfectly well together instead? Is there? I don't know. I am trying to figure it out too. It's like trying to place a coin standing on...

~Edited~ Oopppss.... I am an epic klutz. Sports (or any form of exercise) and I probably just don't agree with one another. Why? Firstly, of all the empty spaces in a badminton court on to which I could place my foot on, I had to go and step on the shuttlecock we were using while we were playing. I admit we don't have a pair of eyes at the back of our heads and who on earth looks on the ground while playing. But still, I HAD to step on it. Statistics-wise, I would be in a very very small percentage of those who do. :( Secondly, I fell off a moving treadmill in a gym before. Anyone recording the incident would most probably win big bucks in AFHV... Again, I'm one of those rare ones. Last but not the least, which happened just two days ago, I fell on a bowling lane. Oh my gosh. It was like totally uber embarrassing. And hilarious in a way. Do you know how slippery that darned bowling lane was?? The experience was like trying to walk without falling on a floor of but...

"I don't want to grow up!!!" Isn't that a statement we all must have heard or uttered sometime during our life? We all must have wished that we could be children again once in a while. Without the need to grow up. Without the need to be responsible for our own doings. Without the need to worry if everything is taken care of. A time when we could be free from the bonds of life and just think happy thoughts every single day. Didn't you??? I did! Well, guess what? I may not be able to bring you back to your childhood (unless I have some pixie dust with me) but Sunway Lagoon can! (In a way) Sunway Lagoon (your all time favourite theme park, I'd say) will be, for the very first time, hosting "Peter Pan: The Musical" , featuring theatrical talents from (where else?) London's very own West End theatre district! Come and experience Neverland once again. Be thrilled as you explore the magical island together with the Darling children as th...

On the 22nd of October 2010, my beloved maternal grandfather (gong gong) decided to leave us and return home to God. :) Personally, I was not really as close to him as I was to my paternal grandmother. Nevertheless, I still have fond memories of this quiet and gentle old man. I remember back when we were still living in our old house, just at our sliding glass door, would be a space reserved for my late grandfather's lazy chair. The string type, you know? (I have no idea how to describe it). Those types that gives you a nostalgic and "kampung-y" kind of feel. We kept it in the storeroom but whenever gong gong came down for a visit and stayed with us (especially druing CNYs), the chair would be out, together with a plastic stool where we would always put a cup of tea for him. He would always read his newspapers in that chair. Not too hot and enough of sunlight. I remember he would always sleep in the bedroom I shared with Eileen, thus we would bunk in with our pare...

A quick update before I plonk myself into bed. My maternal grandfather passed away last Friday. Friends who have asked me how I was coping, said this to me, "You sound unconcerned though." I received that comment TWICE. I will dedicate a post to him soon, just not now as I am still recovering from the stress and heartaches. But let me explain the above situation now, lest I sound like a bad granddaughter. I lost someone whom I was really close to two years ago. The pain of that loss was somehow buried deep in the corners of my heart and I never want to experience it again. Knowing my grandfather was admitted into the ICU, that knowledge brought back the memories of that death two years ago. The pain I was trying to forget, threatened to resurface. I do not want to cry again. I do not want to keep crying. To do that, I pretended that nothing was going to happen to my grandfather. I pretended that nothing was wrong. I admit I sounded very unconcerned. But it wa...

Warning: Do not read if you are sensitive or squeamish about the female anatomy. *big wide grin* Shoo...! October is breast cancer awareness month. To 'celebrate' or to create awareness, La Senza recently had a one day sale for members!!! 50% off on all items from any range BUT only if you hit 10 items. Less than that, no 50% for you. Well, obviously, 10 items at one go is a lot for girls. We only have a pair of boobs. We're not cows... Unless you're a female cat or dog, then you can easily get 10 items and wear three to four pairs at once. Hmmm.... odd picture forming in my head. Hahaha. Anyway, yours truly is not a member. But Chian Li is!!! Thank you so so much! She was so wonderful to call (or msg)  me to join in with her in the shopping special. I needed new bras and was in dire need of more 'support' , you know? :P Needed undies too but abandoned the thought when I saw the gorgeous bras!! (La Senza has great bra designs) I got two! Yippee... One...

Well, at least I sort of have a plan now. Work hard, just do my best. Do time management properly, slot in part time classes for a Master's degree (pending next year I hope), improve and equip myself with knowledge, experience and useful living skills. (Being able to wolf down a Matterhorn burger is not considered one.) The future is always hazy. Some people rush to get out of it, often knocking into poles, boulders along the way because they could not see. Some take it slow, taking one step at a time as much as their vision allows them to. Some prefer to wait for the haze to clear before doing anything. Me? The haze has somehow cleared a bit and I can see a diversion up ahead. Hopefully I will be able to take the road that I plan to and be successful in it. Hopefully with the experience, knowledge, skills gained throughout the few years will push me up the career ladder greatly in the far future. Hopefully. :)

Was looking up for the definition of cross selling on the internet when I came upon these two useful articles. Will post the link up here especially for my peers who are in the sales, marketing  and business field. Hope it helps push you towards success!!! All the best and never stop believing in yourself. :) 1. 8 Ideas for Cross Selling Success 2. Get Better at Selling

        Is it just me or are parents nowadays (my generation *gasps*) really more lax with their children in terms of discipline? Either that or they do not know how to handle their children. I cannot help but get annoyed at them, both the parents and the kids. Children these days do not know how to behave, screaming shouting in church mind you. And what does the mom do? "Sshhh!!! Sshhh!!!" -.-'         As if the child will listen. That's all she did!!! No action taken, just shushing him. I was so busy observing this spectacle take place in front of me I did not really concentrate during Mass.... Sigh. My fault. So annoying! I felt like scolding the kid right there and then. Believe me, I was really taking a lot of deep breaths to treat them as invisible things. If I were to behave like that in church during my time (Gosh, I sound old), I won't live to see the next day man. Do you know how strict m...

Urgh....!!! I am too addicted with these Korean dramas! I thought it died off years ago. But now I am back to the exhilarating rush of sitting in front of the computer (used to be the tv), chasing after every darned episode!!! I will be hoping and praying silently for the new episode to be out every single time!! Urgh....!!! Don't I have any other things better to do? (I do but... addiction is addiction.) Must really not go to that website. But I cannot help it, there are just too many eye candies in the drama.... AAhhhhh.....!!!!!!! *hand reaches slowly for the mouse and hovers over said website* Someone stop me. *in a chirpy voice* I'll let you know later which drama I am now after... Lol. Ok, the episode did not load successfully on my computer. Hmph. Fine. Off to bed then. *narrows eyes* I'll come back for you my dear drama....

Carrefour SS16 Subang Jaya!!! What is wrong with you? How can you switch off your parking lots lights at 10 pm??!! Cars are still parked there. Without the lights, your parking area becomes dark. And SCARY!!! I could not see my car even though I knew where I parked it. What is this? Trying to save electricity eh? This, however, is too much. Too much I tell you. As if in the daytime your parking lots are bright enough, you think it will be brighter at night? Without lights in the daytime, it's already eerie. What more at night? Nonsense! I thought it was only at the level which I parked at. L4. But as I went down, some parts of L3 was also in darkness. WTH? Don't be so stingy on saving electricity that some thing else happens in your parking lots which would bring BAD attention to you. Penny wise pound foolish. First time I actually got scared and felt like going back into the mall. (Dahla got "so many" people around...) Wake up Carrefour!!!

YK came to see me at work yesterday as she was off early. She had not eaten lunch and it was almost 4pm. So we went down to where all the food shops were located so that she could have her fill. Then still feeling a bit unsatisfied, (itchy mouth syndrome, I call it) we popped over to Big Apple Donuts to grab something to stuff our mouths with. (Yea, I know. Cream!! Sugar!! Calories!! Fat fat!!) *sticks tongue out* While we were deciding which mouth-watering, eye-dazzling donuts were gonna be our winners, I spotted something so odd I thought my eyesight deteriorated again. Notice anything? I pointed it out to YK who also agreed with me. Know what it is? A freaking piece of rubber band on top of a donut...!!!  Huh. ( I thought it was a strand of yee mee at first. Lol.) A closer look. Obvious ain't it? How could they have not spotted it??? The rubber band most probably dropped onto the donut when it snapped. But hello... QC QC. Check your goods especially of this kind w...

A photo of how my right knee looks like, a week after my unfortunate 'meeting' with a moving treadmill. Look at the colours of it. "Aren't they so pw-eee-tty....?" *blinks doe-like eyes* Now I cannot wear skirts lest I scare the crap out of people... Hahahaha. Use concealer... lol. Well, it still hurts when I accidentally kneel on it and when I use this particular knee to push doors or drawers close. I forget. The pain, reminds me. By the way, wishing all Muslims a Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!! And happy holiday....! Enjoy yourselves..!

You normally see these kind of accidents happening to other people, people you do not know. These kind of accdients are popular "nominees" in shows like America's Funniest Home Video (No idea why they think it is funny....). You normally watch and go "OM Gosh!!", or you take a deep breath in shock. You would never expect it to happen to you. Now you can say that these accidents happened close to home. Too close. It happened to me. Any idea what kind of accident I am referring to? Yes, I fell off a freaking MOVING treadmill. Urgh! My bruised right knee... And this is even with my long cotton track bottoms. Imagine if I wore shorts.... I think it will be worse. A close up. Skin peeling. The red dots are a result of a hard knock impact of skin and treadmill surface. :o Besides my knee, I also scratched skin off my right foot and I bruised my right forearm and elbow as well. Huh. What happened was idiotic. My fault I would say or rather my coordi...

Was not intending to post anything new actually. But, what man proposes, God disposes. Hahaha. Hence, I am here. Just wanted to share a song I found in FB and a picture I found on someone's blog as I blog-hopped. (It's easy, FB profiles, googling certain words, seriously. Don't you guys ever think of locking your profiles?) Lol. Oh oh. Before that, let me just wish all Malaysians a very Happy National Day. Selamat Hari Merdeka!! Guo2 Qing4 Ri4 Kuai4 Le!! :D May we continue to live in harmony, peace and heartfelt acceptance. (Felt like emo-ing a bit reading so many bad 'racist' news.) Sigh. Ok, now on to the song. I would suggest you take the time to listen to it. It's very beautiful!!! Just clear your mind and listen to it with your ears and heart. I promise you won't regret it. If you do, come find me. I will make you cry. Hahahaha. The other thing which I wanted to share is the picture below. Or rather, the words which are written in it. It's k...

I get annoyed when people imply that I have no discipline. Excuse me.... But last I checked, we were not really close friends at all. Heck, we were just acquaintances who met each other by chance through a mutual friend. You don't really know me. So, how can you determine through three face to face conversations and MSN chats that I have no discipline?? Ok, I am not really scolding you (in case you happen to read this, hope not). But this is what I feel and I am just speaking out my mind. Good, since you say I have no discipline, I shall prove to you that I do HAVE discipline. I will prove to you that I can do what I am supposed to achieve in that target amount of time. I will prove to you that I also have determination. I will prove you wrong. I will prove that you do not really know the real Kathleen yet. And I will also prove to you, that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Do not underestimate me. We will see in two months time.... Till then...

Before you read, no, this is not that g spot you guys so look forward to finding out. Ha! Was looking through some brochures that were left on our dining room table when I grabbed hold of Citibank's leaflet, offering exclusive dining privileges in certain places when you use their bank's credit card. (The gist of it anyway). Flipped to the back to see what eateries had the 'privileged' to be chosen, when I saw this place. g Cafe? No problem man. Will just order anything that I fancy. Going down.... g Spot...*eyes quickly scan the name again* What? g Spot??? Oh you have got to be kidding me. How on earth did they think up of such a name? Oh my heavens... hahahaha. Oh I just made a pun... sort of. Have fun!!!

Came back from work and joined my family feasting on fruits like durians (urgh), mangosteens and rambutans (red hairy balls). Was contentedly and happily eating away when my dad told me and my mom this, "You know, I can eat one rambutan (skinned) without using my fingers. I just use my teeth to tear off the flesh while holding the seed with my tongue." Trying to be sarcastic, I said, "Yea dad. That skill can really get you into the book of Guinness' World record." Dad was either not listening (too busy concentrating on his fruit) or he did not get the sarcastic tone in my voice. He replied (And I swear, in an all earnest manner), "No la. This skill a lot of people also have. A lot of people can do it also." At which, I turned to my mom and the both of us burst out laughing. Then only my dad got it....hahahaha. Loves~~!

I tried fasting on Monday. Not like how the Muslims fast though during Ramadhan from sunrise to sunset. My type of fasting just means eating one less meal for the day. So instead of breakfast, lunch and dinner (let's count the amount of tidbits I eat during the day out of this for now, shall we?), I only had breakfast and dinner. Nothing beats when you're fasting to be very very tempted to food!!! Cause lunch is suddenly like some forbidden fruit. It did not help especially when my mom left a plate of fried chicken (meant for dinner) on the table and the smell of it wafted throughout the entire house!!! And of all days, I was feeling extremely hungry. Gosh. I was so tempted right there and then (And I just started my fast) to break my resolution and have lunch, no matter what it was. Urgh!!! It took immense willpower to stick to it. And to keep my mind off food, I did housework and went to work at 2 in the afternoon. Luckily, I was kept quite busy, hence food was forgotten ...

Argh!!! I feel like an idiot today. I have already mentioned before (I think) that my cantonese is very very bad. My native tongue is English. Has, is and will always be. But, before you people are quick to judge, I also know Mandarin. I read, write and speak it. Of course, due to 'rare' usage or practice, it has also somehow deteriorated...hahaha. Damn. I learned canto from my late grandma and aunties who all speak a lot of canto, and of course, Hong Kong TVB dramas! Unfortunately, canto does not come easily to me!!! I knew it during uni days, when coursemates from Ipoh all spoke fluent cantonese and there I was struggling. In the end, I always switched to Mandarin as I am still more fluent in it. What happened today makes me hate myself. And forces me to speak more canto and watch more canto dramas!!! It was about 1 something in the afternoon after a meeting and I went to pack lunch for myself and my other colleague in the shop. I ordered chicken rice. Everything was ok unt...

Annoying how some people treat you as an invisible person. Annoying how some people do not spare a thought for you. Annoying how you have been there more often in front of them than the other person and yet they only find you when they know you have contact with that someone they are interested in. Annoying how after that, they stop contacting you again. One word -  Annoying. Why not ask her yourself? Why go through me? What do you think I am? A telecommunication device? Pay me the money I spend texting her, asking how she is, all the way in other countries. Then I will let you know how she is. Coward.

I nearly got knocked down by a car today (21/7/2010). It was after work and we (YK, CY and I) decided to head over to Kota Damansara to have dinner at Arisu, a Korean BBQ restaurant. YK had parked her car so I went further up as there were more parking spaces available and I could park my car in peace (meaning, no other cars behind waiting for me, I hate that). I parked and walked back to where YK and CY were standing by YK's car. It was kinda dark. I had to cross over to the other side of the road at a so-called cross-junction. I am very careful (duh). Thus, I always look out before crossing (basic road lessons we learn, look left look right look left again). Cars (normally) signal when they want to turn right to enter the road I was crossing. You can also gauge whether the car is turning, even if he is not signaling, by observing the way they drive. This particular car did not signal and did not make any signs of turning into that road. In fact, it was driving as though it ...

Facebook is getting a bit too crowded for me. I am a personal kind of person. I value my privacy and treasure it like it's the last thing on earth. Being internet savvy, joining social networks, blogging, all these activities just kind of take away that security I hang on to. It's not big a deal. Hey, I love blogging and I am too insignificant in the web world to garner any stalkers or hardcore fans. Haha. Thank God. So I can happily blog in here, (almost) everything I want to say. Facebook, however, is becoming a different story. Ever since the mistake I did with my account in Friendster (I approved every Tom, Dick and Harry's request), I have become very selective in who I approve as my friend and of course, who I add. It is not that earth shaking, ignoring friend requests from unknown people, especially when their profile pictures are blank, pictures of animals, food stuff and inanimate objects. Like what the hell... If you want to add me, you jolly well show me ...

Yes, while I let my beloved blog grow some shitake mushrooms, let me take a break from blogging. I have a lot of things to vent out actually. The injustice, the un-professionalism, the immaturity. But, I have too much on my hands right now to handle. Hence I will be back in full force with wonderful posts to entertain you and trigger your idle mind. :) Bye for now. But do check back in five days time.

Do you know what's the most important thing you can have for yourself and which no one can take it away from you? Self-esteem and self-motivation. It's certainly not easy when you are constantly being bombarded by annoying gimmicks and advertisements depicting thin women with two huge melons as being the picture perfect beauty. I mean, it's picture perfect alright but not necessarily real-life perfect. Heck, it's not even real. Being called fat or being poked fun at is definitely not helping either. I have a healthy BMI value, I look good and yet people are saying I am fat. What the hell??!! I am not being vain and yet I am not being self-delusional. I know I am not fat and neither am I thin. But then again, it's also a relative judgment. Hey, if I stood next to Naomi Campbell, then for sure I am fat as hell. If I stood next to Queen Latifah, it's a different story altogether. So? Who gives anyone the right to say who is fat or not? Or rather who has ...

I love the tune of this song!!! Sung by Guy Sebastian and Paulini. This was the theme song for the World Youth Day 2008 which was held in Sydney. It's an event where Catholic youths from all over the world gather together to get to know each other, have fun and of course to praise and glorify God!!! As usual, me being me, wanted to go but let something else withheld her back. Third year of studies. Sigh. Now I think of it, could I still have caught up with my studies had I left for Sydney for that two weeks??? Maybe... But it's hard to say. Well, fret not. WYD will be held again next year!!! This time in Madrid, Spain! I plan to make it one of my goals to achieve. Work hard, save hard and play hard. I hope I can get to go this time. Yes, I can do it. :)

On Thursday, I felt humbled by a simple yet a great experience. A customer entered our shop, looking at the variety of workout that gloves we had. His back facing towards me, I greeted him courteously and informed him that we had more variety of gloves at the other side of the shop. I was ignored. A few minutes later, he turned, smiled at me and walked to the back of the shop where my other colleague was standing. As he was looking at a particular product, my colleague informed him of the promotions we had going on for it. She was also ignored. Being ignored the first time, I was a bit annoyed. (I was wondering why was the customer a bit rude.) But I continued to smile and put on my cheerful expression. (Haha, don't we all??). He suddenly grabbed a shaker and looked towards me. I said, "It's 20 Ringgit, sir." Immediately, he used hand gestures to indicate he couldn't hear. Realization dawned on me and I quickly went over to where he was. I answered him usi...

I cut my hair, I cut my hair!! *runs a round with excitement* Hahaha. After a year of neglecting my hair, I finally got up the courage (and time) to go for a trim. When I said trim, I meant a trim. But the hairdresser was so fascinated with my hair, she took bout three to four inches off. She layered my hair and also made it thinner. But I still look ok (I think). Only thing is, my hair will look 'big'ger than usual as it's shorter and my roots are growing out (I rebonded my hair the last time). First comment I got when I stepped in was, "Wah, your hair is very long!" Then they dug their fingers into my hair. And started to do their magic. All the while they were busy commenting on my hair and discussing bout it with other clients as well. It seems that my hair is unnaturally black (she asked if I coloured it) and as thick as the hair of three persons in the salon itself. They even commented that I would not need to fear about hair fall as I have so much hai...

Yesterday was my off day..! And guess what I did yesterday? (I'm so proud of myself..) Heh. I cleaned up after my messy life. Well, sorta. And one part of it anyway. I cleared up my room! Trust me, my bedroom was in dire need of cleaning. It embarrasses me to say this. Sigh. I used to be a very, very neat person. However, during the last month or so (or earlier than that), I began to be very very unorganized. Threw my clothes on the bed, books were under my bed, and others. At first, I have no idea what brought about that change in me. But after analyzing and talking with people, I finally found out why. Or rather I guessed 'that' was the reason. Ah well. Even my mom commented that my room was very clean and that she wanted to dirty it up again for me. Huh. Charlene, who shares the room with me got lucky. Cause I  cleaned up the entire room. Duh. You can't expect me to clear only my side of the room right? That's downright stupid. And selfish. And yes, sh...

Ooohhh.... Check out who or what wants to be friends with me in Facebook. Hahaha. Kedai Jual Ubat Kuat ... Hmmm.... yes, nice. Thank you very much. *rolls eyes and purses lips* Why would they want to be friends with me?? Do I look very weak (like a dead fish perhaps)? Or do they just think that I am too hot/ strong to handle and that any 'potential partner' will die and needs to be saved?? (Hence the product is actually meant for them...) And how on earth DO they find you?! Questions questions.... :D

Just yesterday, Friday, I managed to watch Hairspray the musical on TV3!! Thank you RTM! I have always wanted to watch this movie but I just couldn't. Didn't manage to catch it in the cinemas and never had the thought to buy the ori cds. Yea, I know!! So outdate right?? Hahaha. But finally!! I LOVE musicals. Musicals like The Sound of Music , West Side Story , My Fair Lady and many others have always, always been a part of my life as I grew up. And hairspray is definitely beautiful. No doubt the plot is a bit predictable (underdog girl wins the prize boy, people unite together and so on) but gosh... The songs, the dance moves, the fashion style... it's all so engaging!!! I couldn't stop humming the songs and even copying the moves!! It was definitely fun. :D The songs especially are catchy and very cheerful. You can't help but feel as if you have no more worries when you listen to the songs. Hence, I want to share two songs which I love from this movie here...

I have never been tolerant with caffeine. Still am not and most probably will never be. Took coffee once during my exam period to give me that extra boost of mental focus. I was very alert but I could not study at all. I could barely sit down and my hands were shaking like that of a person with Parkinson's. Hence, I have always been careful with drinks like coffee. However, last Thursday I got over-dosed with caffeine. Went to gym and took a full dose of a pre-workout (containing caffeine and other stimulants), forgetting I had already taken something with caffeine at about 5pm that same day. And that made it worse. I began to feel hot and started to sweat. My heart couldn't stop beating fast and my head was throbbing like crazy. To add to the effects I already felt ,we were doing leg workouts. Blood rushed to our legs more than to our heads. Experienced a bit of dizziness and I felt like I was walking in a dreamland. As if everything I was seeing or doing was not real. At all!...

I should be doing a lot of other things. Like preparing for my class.. which I have no idea when it's my turn. I haven't prepared anything... Only read a few pieces of paper. That is bad. A 'teacher' should never never do that. Scout's motto: Always be prepared... Same goes for when you meet handsome, hunky guys.. hahaha. LOL. Buck up on my housework... My room is in a mess. My clothes are everywhere. And there are still some uni stuff which I have yet to clear!! OMG... Almost a year since I graduated. This is horrible! I just found my UTAR alumni shirt behind my room door under my sister guitar's cover. Yea... told you. Basically just doing some housekeeping for my house. Yea. *mutters to self* But I always end up in front of the computer, FB-ing, scamming (haha), doing everything and anything that is absolutely not necessary!!! Huh..! I gotta kick myself in the butt... Let's just hope mushrooms don't grow and there is no BO on my blog. Peace. :)

Hello everyone!! As requested by a certain someone, I am here to blog about how I pluck my armpit hairs... *roll my eyes* And teach you too! First, you must either wear a sleeveless top or wrap a towel around you or just be in your birthday suit. Heh. Second, get your tweezers or that thingamajig and hold it in your hand. Find a mirror. Either your bathroom one, your cupboard one or a small table top one. Anything's fine as long as you can see your self in it!! Then, guess what. Lift your arms. One at a time duh. If you lift both at the same time, how are you going to pluck the hairs??? Face the mirror. Move your eyes to your armpit area and scrutinize it for hairs that may be seen creeping around. Open your tweezers and make sure the hair shafts are in between the two flat 'blades'. Then close it. Make sure you have a firm grip. Now, close your eyes and PUUULLLLLL!!!!! Repeat process until you're happy or just too tired to bother. LOL. Ciao!!

I hurriedly rushed to our uni's music block that day. I needed to practice a piece for the upcoming music performance, held in conjunction with the opening anniversary of the uni's music block. I headed straight for piano practice room 6. He had promised to meet me there. But upon opening the door, the room was empty, as expected. I switched on the lights and entered the white-washed room. There, in the middle of the room, stood the Music Room Grand Model B in polished black. I walked slowly toward it and lifted the shiny cover. The red velvet cloth was neatly folded and put aside. Gently, I slid my fingers across the ivory and ebony keys. They were cool to the touch and a thrill of unexplained exhilaration passed through me. Quickly, I took out my music score and laid it on the stand. And in no time at all, my fingers were deftly running and jumping across the keys as beautiful music filled the room which I was in. Beautiful to me that is, until the door opened and he walk...

I am quite a curious person by nature, which more often than not causes me to land in a lot of trouble. Sort of. Ah well, that's me. :D Anyway, I had nothing much to do one day. Hence, out of curiosity, I decided to play with Google web...Hehe. Google's search engine has this prediction 'thingie' whereby you just have to key in the first few words and Google will show you a list of what you could possibly be searching for. Most easy example is song lyrics! I randomly keyed in a few words, and, checkout what people all over the world are searching for!!! This is the "I like to-s..."   I like to play games ... Hmmm.... Good for you. Thanks for sharing. *sarcastically* Why would anyone search for that??? However, the most outstanding one is....*drumrolls* I like to fork myself!! What the heck is forking yourself??? It sounds utterly wrong and eewww.... And besides, I don't think I want to find out what it means anyway. Fork myself?? Huh... Not gonna ...

Yes, thank you. I know my blog is growing mushrooms now. Shitake hopefully. :D I have no inspiration to write. Till now I suppose. I think people, generally (me included), have to be careful with their words. Becareful with what you say. Sometimes the things we say, mean nothing to us. But to the other party, it could either hurt them, kill them or the other way round. Sometimes when people say things that cut us deep inside, we just smile and pretend that we take no offense at what they say. But once we're in the safety of our hiding place, we cry. And cry and cry till our pillows are soaked with tears. But no one sees these tears or hear the pain you feel when you cry. Then the next day, you go back to class or work, smiling, laughing, pretending that all is well. We look well, but if you look closely, you can see the hurt or pain in our eyes. The dark rings under our eyes cause we couldn't sleep. Tossing and turning in agony. It is even more painful when you face th...

Worked night shift today as I wanted to go for my long-overdued facial in the morning. Why? To beautify myself of course. Duh. (sarcastically). Well, you know how it is. Girls... *rolls eyes* So anyway, I didn't have to eat in any of the restaurants in Subang Parade or Carrefour!!! Hahahaha. And I am so so happy! I tell you, six days of eating in a shopping mall is enough to kill you. And make you sick. My wonderful mom, I think most probably the best in the world (hehe), brought me home-cooked dinner! Yums! The feeling of being loved is like holding a bowl of hot soup during winter time. Ok, maybe not. But hey, if your mom cooks dinner and brings it to your workplace, just so you can have something other than over-priced food, who wouldn't feel loved and special??? Right? :D Mom decided to try something different today. She decided to do fish bee hoon (dry style) ala the Penang style we tried a few times before near the Sunway hotel in Penang. I was gobbling up my food (so ...
