Intoxi'Kath'ing Whispers

Argh.... I can't seem to blog about my trip. I started my first week of studies, by the way. Three classes every week. First lesson of Managerial Economics itself, class was cancelled and my class wasn't told. We only found out past 7pm. Eesh. We have two evening classes, one was lucky enough to have their lesson, my class was not so lucky. However, instead of going home, I popped over to join the other class for this subject. No harm in learning a repeat of what you heard right? (I'm so hardworking.... right...) I went there all the way for my studies, so I might as well.... And yes, my new phase of life, is going back to school. Not getting married, not having babies, not having grandchildren. Hahaha. Going back to school. These words make me feel like a grandma.... Back to assignments, group work, midterms and final exminations. Now, the social circle does not only involve bosses, senior managers, and colleagues. It also involves lecturers, classmates...

Oh my gosh *drama tone*... I don't know where to start. My Thailand trip or my start of a new phase of life. :D Both events happened near to one another. It was a bit of a mess, actually. I was busy getting ready for my new phase, I left all my packing to the very last minute before I was due to fly. Hahaha. But at least I brought everything I needed, unlike CL who left her comb and haridryer. Lol. And no luggage tagged wrongly. That was my worst nightmare. Stuck in a foreign country and your luggage gets tagged with another passenger's. Old story . My trip to Thailand came at the right time, though at first I was warped with a lot of doubts. Sometimes, being away from all things that are familiar, gives you a different perspective in a lot of ways. I needed it to change. Why? Because during my trip, I realized a few things. I have no idea why, but my confidence must have really slipped to an all time low. It was very apparent it seems, that even people I mee...

I should most probably be sleeping by now. But I can't. I have been having sleepless nights for the past few days. Every morning, when I wake up, I feel as if I didn't sleep the night before. Anxiety, worry, nervousness, fear. All these just seem to be very jumbled up inside of me now. Argh!!! I don't know what to feel...

I cooked dinner!! Muahaha. Mom and dad weren't around for the weekend. They packed their bags, left the country and ran away from us, leaving the three of us to fend for ourselves. Lol!   So, I decided to put my cooking skills to the test. (Partly because I was tired of eating out.) Head knowledge and skills..   And this is what I came up with...   Voila!  Kath's seemingly burnt fried rice.    Fried rice. Not your typical fried rice... because I used brown and red rice instead of white rice. So it looks kinda dark....   As I was eating this dish, I realized the mistakes that were made.   No.1: Too much water was used to boil the rice, thus it was very lumpy and hard to break apart in the kuali. No. 2: I wanted crunchy ikan billis to munch on. I should have taken them out after getting enough of its flavour into the oil. Instead, I continued frying it with the rest of the ingredients and my delectable snack became...

Ok, a diversion from my usual posts. Hahaha. This post is so not my usual style.   I am pretty sure serious gym goers would have heard of the company EGOnutritions, known for short as EGO. I know my friends do. Good nutrition, good body, all the good reasons for your ego. Bleah.   For all you guys out there, this is a rare chance of a lifetime to meet him. Who is he? Lee Priest , of course. He will be in Malaysia very soon.   Check this out >  http://leepriestmsia.blogspot.com/   You would pay RM 250-RM 500 to watch your favourite singers perform live on stage right? Yet, you most probably don't get to see them up close nor get their autographs nor get to take pictures with them. All you can do is take pictures OF them from afar... And they end up so tiny and blur on your cameras. :(   Well, EGOnutritions is bringing Lee Priest to you. And guess what? You can actually get to take a good picture with him. ...

OK, grammar Nazi time... Honestly speaking, I am not an English expert. Subjects like phonetics or the origin of the English language are not known to me as I do not have a degree in English. However, my English is good enough for me to spot mistakes that either make you want to cringe or sit the offending party down to an intensive English language lesson! The pictures below are mistakes that I see nearly everyday. These belong to a property developer company. Browse through the pictures below. The mistakes are so glaring that I really do not understand how such error can occur from a company like them! What does having a fully equipped fitness centre got to do with being "energetically"? First of all, the usage of the word energetically is wrong. Even the word energetic is already wrong in this context. You do get the message that they are trying to convey, but it makes you (or me rather) go "Energetically what?" This is an easy exa...

Just a quick one for today as I am still in the midst of creating and editing two posts. One, is where you will get to see me become a grammar Nazi and another one, which is more descriptive. I need time to describe...hahaha. You can anticipate these two. :) Ok, if I were to ask you my dear friends, to write an eulogy for me, now, while I am still alive, can you do it??? According to dictionaries, an eulogy is a speech or writing praising a person , especially  in honor of a recently   deceased person. Presenting an eulogy is good, in fact, it is one of the hardest things to do at the funeral of a loved one.  Most of us will find it hard to hold back our tears as we speak of the ones we love. My question to you is this: Why do we praise and say good things about a person after he or she has passed away? Can the deceased person hear you? Will he or she know how you actually feel or think about them? No, right? Then why do we do...
