Nothing Like A Relaxing Sunday Afternoon!

Thank gawd for that! Had to go back to work yesterday after rushing to have my hair done in the morning, so I am really glad that my Sunday was at least half decent pleasant.

Slept my fill, watched some videos before having dinner and cleaning my room. Now I am just relaxing in front of the S10 with some...


Grapes and cherries!

Some of the Pinkies kept talking about eating cherries, so I got Mumsies to get some, and the ever considerate woman she is, she also bought grapes because she knows I love them. Hohoho!

Oh, and the long overdue pictures of my new toys!


Ah Bee!!! Never knew Transformers toys can be so much fun. Kinda like a tiny puzzle. Thinking of getting Optimus Prime too.


Yeap! Finally got the red iPod nano that I have so coveted, and I absolutely love it. It's so handy! And with engraving too! So much easier and prettier to carry around than the brick I had before, which had mysteriously stop functioning. Hmmm...

So my weekend was great. How about yours? ;]

New Hair!

Is always cause for celebration!



Not sure if I really like it yet, although Mumsies really DO NOT like it. -_-

So tired! First time in my life I am working on a Saturday in a full-time job.

It's a day of -_-

DEFINITELY not this one! So gross loh, the hair so long. First time I ever see a bumble bee so up close and personal.

CUTE! I am beginning to develop a liking for all things Bumble Bee... Hmmm...

Finally! The correct Bumble Bee! Look at that face! Look at those piercing blue eyes! Tell me you don't find him adorable too!

Let's look at another picture!


That look of deep-in-thoughtness! Such depth in that expression!

Muahaahhah! That was fun!

I Get So Annoyed Sometimes...

When I am sitting on the train, and there is this like not very old but not exactly a human in the blossom of life standing in front of you, and you are expected to give up your seat.

Okay, so there is nothing wrong with that, it is actually the half decent thing to do. Unless your feet hurts like a freaking mother of a fat bastard who sock her in the gut with a can of rotten peas. Meaning, it is REALLY painful and standing for the duration of my journey would be downright torturous.

Then all these people standing around you starts giving you the evil eye. I really feel like boxing them. No, actually, I really feel like just ripping off the damn plasters and shoving my feet into their faces so they can see the farking wounds festering on my toes.

Think the smell enough would scare them off from ever judging me and my poor feet again.

And in my defense, the person is NOT really that old and given the chance, I bet more than half of these people WOULD NEVER give up their seats. Probably feign sleep or something.

Hummph! I feel so indignant!!!

Wisdomous Wisdom Of The Day

Carry all the cartoon bags while you still can. You may just realise someday that you are too old for that shit, and feel so much regrets that you never got to carry a Snoopy bag.

What A Pleasant Rainy Afternoon!

Observations Of The BJN

Observation #1: When you grow to become a certain age, you kind of become more fearful of loneliness. Certain activities, which before can be conducted in solitude, now seems so unachievable if you don't have someone doing it with you. Perhaps it is the realisation that EVERYONE around you seems to be shacking up with someone or another. The very foreboding trepidation that eventually you will be the ONLY one left without anybody to associate or consort with is, indeed, very real.

Observation #2: I am so grateful that if I have nothing else, at least I still have the ability to read, write and understand meaning. To lose myself in a book, to put down my feelings, and to feel a thrill every time a significance becomes apparent. It is simply an exquisite reminder that I am still alive.

Observation #3 is a series of observations that I had whilst watching Transformer 2.

I. I love this one better than the first one because it is soooooo archaeology, with a little bit of myths, ancient history and the works. It's just not a good movie if there are no sand and dust involved!

II. Why are the Decepticons always so unpleasant looking? Will it kill them to at least take care of themselves aesthetically once in a while?

III. Why are characters like the butcher guy and the website guy always given the gay treatment? What's wrong with having them actually get the girl for a change?

IV. I LOVE BUMBLE BEE! *gush gush* He's like some Autobot romance hero hunk with lots and lots of muscles. The way he tore that Decepticon apart... OOOOOO... I can just so marry him and have a bunch of tiny little robot kids right there.

V. Does anyone else have this incessant urge to yell "RUN CHICKENS! RUN!" while watching the movie too?

And on a side note, I bought a new iron today! I am very excited about it, and am presently going to do some ironing on the new ironing board that Mumsies purchased just so I can use the new iron.

There is something about ironing that soothes the mind. Oh and try watching the washing machine go about your laundry if you have the chance. There is something very calming about the way it dances and tosses the clothes around.

Nothing Like A Good Friday

Stepped through the door and smelled...

DURIANS!!!

Life is officially fantastically awesome and awesomely fantastic!

And I finally found some energy to conduct a deep-cleansing clay mask. Masking always makes me feel so relaxed.

AHHH~~~ PURE BLISS~~~

Bridgertons

I hereby declare...

That my absolute favouriter character from Julia Quinn's Bridgerton clan is Colin Bridgerton.

Rereading the series again and simply falling in love with the books all over again.

*pleasant and contented sigh*

See when I get all pleasant and contented instead of angry and disturbed, it must be nothing short of something damn fantastic.

I could gush about the books forever! And about Colin!

Although Anthony and Benedict (missed out on Gregory's story the first time round), are awesome awesome characters in their own right, there is just something about Colin that is just... =)~~~~~~~~~

*sighs in disgustingly over pleasant and contented way again*

Oh Lookie!



Ahhh Baaaleee...

No wait, that's James Brolin also Barbara Streisand's husband and Josh Brolin's sire.

Hmmm, how come Christian Bale resembles him than his own son?

Put A Button On The Snooze

Does anyone else also think that Dan and Serena from Gossip Girl is so reminiscent of the all-too-familiar Ross and Rachel?

The golden girl and the dork boy relationship is such an old, but seemingly effective, couple pair-up.

But somehow, it just does not seem to be worth the effort anymore after they get together for the first time. Honestly speaking, Ross and Rachel became just a tad too tedious, not to mention annoying, to watch after they had a kid together.

Now if us Gossip Girl fansies are lucky, Dan and Serena hopefully WON'T have an illegitimate child together (oh wait, their parents already did that), and continue to drag on for a couple more seasons, before suddenly deciding that they do want to sleep with each other after all.

It's just, IMHO, a freaking waste of time.

I vote to have Dan sleep with Vanessa first, then end up with Blair. Then Serena and Chuck will fall in love, making that two of her mother's lovers' sons, because that is the kind of thing which would happen to a girl like Serena. And in so, all the women and the men who have slept together before, would have slept with each other at least once.

Now that is what I call good television.

This blog entry is dedicated to one of my best friends in the whole wide world... world... world~~~

Because I was suddenly hit with the realisation, while waiting for the bus yesterday, that she is really one of the few people who have CONSTANTLY been there for me in the past couple of years.

Without fail.

And this person is... BUNNY 小兔妹! *applause applause*

Okay lar, I am talking about PS lar. Hahaha. It's kind of difficult to remain serious when talking about her, because she is really very funny. Like yesterday one moment she think she is a fruit which is very fresh, the next she is an internet browser which can refresh. Hmmm...

And I think that is why she is my best friend. She is always making me laugh.

So what happened to really inspire this entry?

I was chatting with her on MSN yesterday, talking about my upcoming contract job and my worries that I might not be able to find a good job after the contract ends. In her own special understated way, she simply just encouraged me, gave me suggestions, and told me not to worry because things will turn out fine.

I never really thought much of it at the time, but when I finally had time to think about the things she said, I realised I always feel better after talking to her about my problems and how much faith she has in me. And it has nothing to do with my abilities or that she is just a positive person.

It is simply because she is a damn awesome friend who believes in her friends.

She never ever judged. Even when I am at my worst or making all the wrong decisions. She is simply just there. I can't even count the so many many many times she came through for me, and the so many many many times she brighten up my day just by being herself.

A friend who puts her own sadness aside just to listen to your problems first. That's the kind of friend she is. And I am grateful that there is someone great like her in my tiny little world.

And if I never make another friend in my life again, it won't be a problem at all. Because 小兔妹 will always be there.

PS: 小兔妹, mai gan dong until hao hor. Hahaha!

补习

Today I heard a conversation between two persons standing behind me on the escalator.

Person A: "明天不想去..." -sentence trails off in mumbled words-
Person B: "Huh?"
Person A: -louder voice- "明天不想去补习!"
Person B: "Orh... 不要去要讲hor!"

Conclusion 1: It's been a damn long time since I heard the phrase "补习".

Conclusion 2: I wish I am still at the age where I can still use the phrase "补习".

Conclusion 3: The phrase "补习" is so much cooler than the word "tuition", especially when people start spluttering trying to decide between pronouncing it "tuuu-sion" or "tuuu-weee-sion".

Sigh... I WANT TO 补习!!!

Hmmm, after you repeat the phrase a few more times than necessary, it really starts to sound like a bad word.

补习补习补习补习补习补习补习补习补习补习补习补习!!!

Dancing Bananas Are Trop Cool!

Two things baffled me today.

Thing A: I was at the This Fashion at Kranji, looking for some cheap leggings, when they started blaring this Malay song over the speakers. Some dude crooning "...selamaaaaaat..." is not exactly my choice of shopping music. Although perhaps the proximity to Malaysia and the daily flux of Malaysian commuters may have something to do with it.

Thing B: Singaporean youngsters are becoming more and more androgynous. Have I been gone too long or just stayed at home too much since my return? There was a boy walking in front of me, carrying what appears to me to be a lady's handbag.

When I expressed my opinion to Mumsies, she commented sagely that it's actually getting very common. Hmmm... Okaaaay.

Anyway, I went shopping in JB again! Yaayness! Nothing like a good shopping trip to invigorate the senses.

Bought a pair of shoes and some office wear for my new contract job next week. I am officially good to go!

But the best purchase, IMHO, has got to be this:



This entire set costs RM199. I think it's super value because a bottle of the pro serum gel alone costs RM189. And it even came with a bunch of little samples and a rather nice white pouch. I can never have enough of these pouchy-thinggys. They are so handy!

Okay, I am off to take a nap now. Maybe I shall hug my super value B-liv set while I do so.

Are You My Friend? Really?

If the people that I care about don't even bother that I do, then is it so wrong that I stop giving a shit about them?

If you really know what it is to be a friend, then maybe I don't have to try so hard to find reasons to convince myself that you are indeed a friend.

If you don't believe in me, then maybe I shouldn't trouble myself explaining so much because obviously you don't understand me right from the beginning.

Make sense much?

Maybe I should start listing down criterion for friends or maybe set a higher filter. Because it's amazing sometimes, how the actions of people that are not even related to me in anyway except by way of the label "friend", and I use the word sparingly, can really affect me.

But then, if I really start doing so, I will probably end up with little or no friends at all, which right now, does not seem like such a remote possibility.

I need a puppy.
