Intoxi'Kath'ing Whispers

Awesome!! The easiest yet one of the hardest topics to blog about. Well, these are a few of my favourite things. *sung to the tune from "The Sound of Music."* 1. I love chocolates. I simply do. I especially like milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Mm-um... Melts in your mouth. The purer a chocolate is, the more bitter it is and the healthier it is. Sort of. (An excuse to indulge on them :P) 2. Earrings!! I have  more than 10 pairs (Is that considered little?). I have dangly ones, studded ones, big ones, hooked ones. Personally, I prefer those which you just have to hook into your earlobe. Studded ones always get lost as they are small and if you have thick earlobes you can't wear it. 3. Holly.. Not the Christmas plant, silly. But Holly my doggy. She's a mongrel which we caught from the wild when she was a puppy. Lol. She's a lucky one, she is. Everyone in the family loves and adores her. She gets annoying sometimes though when she pushes to go into the house...

I rarely blog about this aspect of my life. But, here it is. First thought in my head was, "Why???" Before you even hear the answer, deep down in your heart you already know it. And why not? It was expected in a way, yet not expected in some. It was suspected, just not that fast. People will normally give the reason for their leaving as such, to greener and better pastures. The grass is always greener on the other side. I won't blame them. It is their life and it is up to them to live it. Then you think, "Instead of making other companies seem like greener pastures, how can we make it or do it in such a way that the company you are currently in NOW be THAT greener pasture?" If it can be seen as such, then people won't decide to leave. Right? I am actually worried for the company. It's expanding with two, three (or more) outlets this year. It is not a bad thing. It is actually a good sign. The exponential rate of its expansion is fine if we have...

A continuation from this. The Piano Room . (contniued...) "Don't cry. It'll be over in just a few days." He said. "You can do it. I know you can. Hey, you're not you for nothing you know." Then he hugged me tightly. I lifted my head up to look at him. His left thumb reached up to my face and wiped away the tears that ran down my cheeks. First the left side then the right side. If I looked like a dork after crying, he either did not notice it or just pretended not to. I looked deeply into his eyes and smiled gratefully. Standing up, he patted my right shoulder as I resumed the proper sitting position of a pianist. "I'll let you practise somemore. I'll be in the lounge if you should ever need me." He said and smiled that affectionate smile of his which I always loved. He then turned and walked out of the piano room. Feeling renewed, focused and determined again, I poured out all my heart and soul into practice for that day. Days p...

     You know how sometimes you give people feedback through emails or reply them and you don't hear anything from them? Then you begin to wonder if anybody even looks at their emails or not. Well, my fellow ex-Utarians, wonder no more. The UTAR Alumni does read theirs. And I thought they would not even bother to reply me. Hahaha.      What happened was, the UTAR Alumni would always send out emails to the alumni informing us of any upcoming events or talks that are held in the centre.      I began to notice that the emails regarding the talks, always reaches my inbox late. It's not a big thing. I could say, I don't care, it's not my problem. But I found it weird that the emails reached me after the talk has been gone and done with. Then you ask yourself, what's the point of the emails then? After a few times, I sent the email below to our Alumni. And yes, I know. It's supposed to be "a computer generated email" and not a...

I am actually quite an avid and voracious reader. Brought up in a household where books were mostly my companions, I have always adored books and treasured them tremendously. Yes, I am a bookworm. Hahaha. But not till the extend of cooping up at home la. I was a tomboy ok? Anyway... I grew up on Enid Blyton, the Nancy Drew series, the Hardy Boys series (I did!), classics like Anne of Green Gables, the Little House on the Prairie, Black Beauty and so much more. As I aged (and withered), I shifted from these to Agatha Christie, old classics like Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, to the more modern ones like Stephen King. And yes, I also read R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike in high school. Hahaha. Who didn't? They were the most sought after books in the school library, forever being checked out by someone. Nonsense though they were. I read almost all sorts of genre. Horror, mysterires, chick lit, romance, non-fiction, self help, humour and so on. One of the genres that I ra...

Hehehe. *rubs hands with glee* This post is dedicated to Yan. :P A few of us went for a karaoke session on Thursday night. It was supposed to the five of us. But someone forgot her work schedule (Caffeine OD) and couldn't make it at the last minute. Haiya. It was a bit disappointing cause the first time we went, the five of us had a crazy time. We missed you!! I actually didn't realize that karaoke sessions could be so much fun. The second time I entered a KTV was with my Uni friends (KT, Jenny, Tee and others) to celebrate the June babies. Coincidentally, most of the karaoke sessions I went to was at BTS Neway. Anyway, there were about eight of us that time and it was wild!!! It was super crazy and hilarious with the guys (KT, I remember) acting out the lyrics. We were laughing, jumping around and shouting like mad. I have never had that much fun in a KTV room. Too bad I had to leave early cause I took public transport there. Huh! The first time I went for a K session ...

O... kay... Dear all, I have since removed the last post which was posted on Monday. I actually drafted it out and I did not mean to post it up. Somehow, I must have clicked publish and I did not notice if not for the comments of Yan and Jenny. Thanks! (Shows you how dangerous the internet is) Anyway, it's not meant to be posted up. Not until I do amendments so that I seem cool and calm again. Haha. But for those who have read it.... heh....now you know. I do have a temper and I do get angry, for those who are wondering. You can go and buy your 4D number now. "Kath got angry...!!!|" And no, my anger is not work stress related. Not sure why so many people keep telling me not to stress though. I don't think I am. Yet. :) If I am stressed, I just end up sleeping. Really!!! What happened would be something like "The last straw that broke the camel's back." Yea... that was what it was. Sorry....
