Marriages & Men

In my younger days, I used to have this idealistic thinking about love and marriage. To me, love was always true love and true love led to a happy and ever lasting marriage. That a guy, will love you for who you are, what you are, accepting all your faults and everything about you. Even if you weigh like a hippopotamus, or look like a slice of Domino's pizza. I thought that inner beauty always surpasses external beauty. I thought. I thought that when two people marry out of real love, they will do things together, grow old together. That they will always be happy together, no matter what. I thought. But then I said, I THOUGHT . When things like cheating on your spouse happens so close to home, it makes me wonder. What on earth went wrong? My eyes are opened even wider and I have just come to realise how naive/innocent I was. Here I am picturing a perfect life of married people, no doubt with the occasional temper flares, but still happy and loving, when in reality people are arguin...

'Friendship' (haha)

This wasn't done by me, I got it from an email, but I like it. So I'm dedicating this to all my friends, near or far, sane or insane. I love you all, thanks for always being there for me, though I may have failed to be there for you at times. My fault, please do hit me with a broomstick when you see me. Thanks. Friendship - None of that sissy crap Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, But never actually come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship. You will see no cutesy little smiley faces on this card- Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship. 1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad. 2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something thatI must be involved in. 4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you ...

A New Year Story

Image
A new year has come, so obviously new things must be incorporated, old plans remade and restructured, standing plans to be accomplished and done with. All the while, I had decided not to put in any photos of people in my blog. Every photo you see in this blog, are animals, things, food and other quirky stuff. Never have I put in photos or pictures of people, but I have decided to change that for this year. Thus the purpose of this entry. My first entry of the year and my first entry with photos of actual people in it. Hope we enjoy it... A NEW YEAR'S DAY STORY What do people do when they want to usher in the New Year? They drink of course. Heinekken, Malta and leong cha all made an appearance. Applause. So we drank . We gambled . Look who has the biggest card in her hand. We even had liquor chocolates ... And then we drank some more ... We drank so much, we became like this in no time... And what do drunk people do when they're drunk? And either not aware of it or simply deny ...

Goodbye 2007

Haha.. going to make it compulsory to say goodbye to each year that passes by. Memorable Moments of 2007 January : My 21st Birthday!!! Enough said right... Had a party at home. Yay! February : Did not go round to visiting my relatives this year, especially my dad's side as we had to come back to Subang. (Dad had to do something). So, obviously, our ang pau income also dropped drastically. March : Hmm... nothing memorable here enough for me to remember... April : Had my exams? Nothing exciting going on obviously... May : Went to Pulau Redang with Uni friends! Had fun snorkelling and stuff. Got sunburned. (Duh) June : Donated blood for the first time. Still am proud of it. Yay!! (Mind you, I am very scared of needles, so it is a big thing for me. Will I do it again? Uh...). Went to Kuantan with another group of Uni friends, supposedly to see turtles.. But the turtles didn't want to see us. :( July : Classes? The adrenaline rush of running from hall to hall? Library to Cant...

Durians

Aahhh!! Stupid house printer had to choose this perfect timing in ruining my project report!! I have no idea what's wrong with it. It still has ink but when I print more than one page at one go, the ink disappears! So, I now have to go through a gruelling time-waiting game with it. Five minutes of wait, print one bloody "beaver's dam" page. Grr... Eight pages to go. Help. Okay, the paragraph above was not originally part of my blog today. But I just had to let it out. What I want to say about today are my food likes and dislikes. Haha. It just came to me. I have funny food tastes for a Malaysian. Know why? I dislike eating durians . I like the smell, yes, but I seriously do not like partaking in the ritual of tantalising my bud with its aromatic creamy flesh. Sorry. Once, my family decided to have durians for lunch ! (They are all durian lovers). I was like "What?!" Yuck!! Not surprisingly I threw a tantrum... Was in my teenaged years I think. I don't c...

My Experiment/ Project

Image
Yay! Today was my last day of industrial training. Had loads of fun. Here are some pictures of what I was doing. But it's not really good or descriptive of what I actually and really did. At least you get the rough picture. Pun intended. By the way, outside the lab, is a sign saying, "No photography". But then, who gives a "beaver's dam". This is the column with which I started my column chromatography using silica gel 60. A closer look... I didn't do it so well.. thus the colour is not even. When it's well done, the colour will be even and you can see even coloured bands appearing too. A fraction collector. You just leave it be and it collects your fractions for you. Another fraction collector. You must put in the weight which you want it to collect though. Then it won't overspill. Test tubes containing my fractions. See the colour change? Cool huh? Hehe. Top view. Another collection of fractions. Colour is becoming darker. Look from right to le...

Lack of Sleep

Lack of sleep leads to tiredness. Tiredness leads to impatience. Impatience leads to irritation. Irritation leads to frustration. Frustration leads to short temper. Short temper leads to angry outbursts. Which lead to words being said impulsively, unmeaningly and spitefully. Which leads to hurt and unseen scars. Hurt that is not easily forgotten though forgiven. Scars which will never be removed. And a distance between the hearts exist. No longer close as before.
