Sharing Is Caring

I asked my cousins and PassedOutBen to join me for a food review the other day
There’s no way i can finish all the food by myself
And wasting food is a sin, non?

Therefore i have this list of people who are
Currently unemployed or on holiday
To accompany me on these little work trips

Jing Hua and Smalls came
I love my cousins
But they sure made hell of alot of noise while i was taking the food pics
Cos they wanted to eat

Throw at you then you know

JingHua just came back from  London
She got me a lovely Lulu Guiness  bag where she was interning weee!!

Sorry no pic of Smalls
I dunno why…!



 

Starbucks : Greed & Sin

Someone has been bugging me to go Starbucks alot
Crazy

I went there for lunch today
Lunch?!
What nonsense

I’d rather eat hawker food

 

Nothing there looked particularly appealing to me

Except for the Banofi Pie
Which consists of banana cream, caramel and other tantalizing tastes

So i had that for lunch

I blogged bout PassedOutBen’s Need For Self Control

Fairy & Le Foie Gras

After taking many a photograph over the weekend
Now i’m pretty free
And the designers are the busy ones

La la la can’t wait for to see the mag  this coming month and how it looks like
I saw the cover already and it’s gorgeoussss
Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous

I got not one
But TWO *holds up two fingers trimphantly* pictures of MyLittlePonies in the July issue!
When i happily announced the news to AdamPeterPan
His head drooped slightly and he went “ookay…”
But i didn’t care, it was as if my Life Long Goal was to get my ponies published or something

I have tomorrow off and i damn well plan on relaxing tonight
No running around
No taking pictures
No fiddling around with the pc

Just relax

So i’m bringing the foie gras that U Jin bought me from Paris
Adam’s getting the wine & a baguette
And we’re gonna watch a Beethoven movie and chill

Sounds like a plan


 

My Mother Kononnya Cun 

I was waiting for Shaun to pick me up

My mother had draped herself across the couch

Like a tired towel

 

I sat myself down on the footrest in front of her

“Why do you look so tired?”

“I *am* tired. Government wasting money on us.”

 

My mother likes to quote random sentences

To urge us to question more I suppose

 

If you want to layan, you question why

If you don’t want to layan, you just go ‘oh ok’ and run off

Heh

 

But I felt like layaning

So I asked her what’s up

 

“What do you mean government wasting money?”

 

Apparently she got sent to this district-wide gathering of teachers in Selangor

Then she started talking about how she couldn’t recognize two malay teachers she hadn’t seen for the past two decades

 

“I tell you, I really couldn’t recognize them man.”

“Why la?”

“Haiyooo they look sooo auntie!”

“…….. and you look like a teenager la.”

 

J

 

So gonna get kicked out one day

 


 

I Didn’t Mean That

I wished for my ex to die

-_-

People emo-ing that i said i wished he was dead.
nO.

What i meant was that whatever happens to him means NOTHING to me cos anything that happens to me would mean NOTHING to him

-_-

Blogs. Sigh.

When You Realise

The Grudge Still Exists

How do you take to your exes who cheated on you?

For me, not very fondly at all
What do you expect me to do,
Send them a birthday card every year?
‘Hey Happy Birthday and thanks for cheating on me with two other girls’

Adam happened to have bumped into that particular ex of mine

Him and me happened three years ago when i was nineteen and naive
It ended very abruptly when i got enlightened by someone else that he was also seeing two other girls in different postcode areas
So i didn’t call anymore
And neither did he

Nice.

So there Adam and i were in the car today
Trying to clarify whether or not this was the same person we were referring to

“He’s skinny.”
“Yea he’s definitely skinny, like me.”
“He’s got huge eyes. Like a cartoon.”
“Yea yea that’s what i remember when i saw him, skinny with big eyes.”
“Hmmm… i don’t care whether it’s the same person or not. It was so long ago.”
“Well i think it must be, how many —–s can there be who dj in kl.”  He pressed on
“… true.”  I nodded my head slowly
“Was he having cancer already when you were going out with him?”
“WhaT?”  I wondered whether i heard right
“Wait. I think he got cancer *after* you went out with him cos it was last year.”  Adam said thoughtfully
“Perhaps its all the karma hitting back on him.”  I replied calmly
“Baby!!”  He slapped my thigh in the midst of driving in shock
“What?”  I rubbed my thigh in indignance, feeling just slightly bad
“It’s cancer we’re talking about!”
“Yea i know… but it makes no difference to me.”


Which is true.
I really liked the guy at that time.
I really really did.

The first time he called, i wondered why
The first time we went out, i remember he liked the material of the Dockers skirt i wore
The first time we kissed, i was so smitten i walked into my own gate after getting down from the car
The first time i went over to his house, i let him make love to me
The first time EeVon told me over the phone about what she knew, i physically stiffened and stoned before bursting into tears outside college

But that was three years ago

Apparently he got cancer
I seem unperturbed
And Adam probably thinks i’m evil

My reasoning is that
Whatever happens to me now will have no impact on him whatsoever
And likewise

I Don’t Care Anymore!

I don’t care anymore whose dishes it is!
I don’t care anymoe whose stupid rubbish it is
I don’t care whose ciggie butts are they
I don’t care whose mineral water bottles they belong to
I don’t care who left the damn plastic bags lying around
I don’t care whose half-empty drink cans they are

I’m sleepy
I’m tired
And i have to fucking stress out cleaning the kitchen JUST COS I WANT TO COOK SUPPER

You two
Yes, you two - Adam and Josh

DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE APARTMENT before i become that bitching girlfriend that CHUCKS EVERYTHING into BOTH YOUR ROOMS!!!!!!!!

I had a jolly happy night drinking at Bangsar, Atmos and Zouk and i come to this shit!!!!

*screams like a pontianak*

The only thing i can assure is mine are the wine glasses in the sink and i’ve washed them

Scrabble on Sundays is the Shit

LaughingLoga is as cruel as they come sometimes
I was hopping up Telawi Street
Just having had a SundayScrabbleSession in La Bodega

Having gone to Poppy the night before, he lamented
“Yesterday was like International Ugly Day man… it’s like all the ugly
people were allowed to go out and club.”
“Fuck man, i can’t believe i have friends like you.”
“What?” *konon innocent face*
“Oh well. At least having friends like you give me substance for my blog!”

BenHoTheHo was there as well

He peeped at the pages of the fashion mag i was flipping through
Maybe he was trying to practice spotting out real girls from fake ones

As i paused on an Hermes  ad, he spoke up (as he always does)

“HeY, what’s thaT?”
“What??”
He shifted his head to the side slightly to face it right-side-up
“Ohhh Hermes! I thought it said Herpes! Was thinking what kind of brand is that!!?”

Me:

Now everytime i walk past Hermes i think of Herpes instead
Bloody hell


 

Spreading the Fairy Love

I brought this book  that Andrew gave me for my birthday
For CareBearJoanne  to read
Was telling PassedOutBen about it happily

“I brought my colleague a fairy book to read! And you know whAT, another colleague here has a fairy figurine on her desk too, like me!”
“I swear you are trying to start some secret cult.”
*ignores* “Then there’ll be fairy lovers everywhere!”
“And i’ll hunt them down and kill them aLL!”


 

World Rainforest Musicfest 2005

Friday

 

I touched down in Kuching at FREAKING TWO AM
Stupid flight got delayed by an hour

Poor ShalMalibu and SweetSarah were dying by then
From henceforth, all SuperMalibuFans shall be *name*Malibu
I slept over their place

I had stayed there before for a week when Shal launched her first album end of last year
It’s a creepy old house …at times
At times like 2 am, definitely creepy

We walked up the stairs into the hallway
The thing about the hallway is that it’s not *just* dark
It’s mighty shadowy and i get an eerie feeling there as well
Like there’s always something above or behind me
Not good, not good

There was a single bed there

“Oh hope you don’t mind, you’ll be sleeping here tonight,” said Shal
“Oh okay, sure!” i replied chirpily
Ohmygod this is sooo creepy wahhhh crycrycry

Then she continued walking up the hallway and i trotted behind
She turned around and grinned
“I’m kidding!”
“PhEW… fuck damn scary la sob sob”
“Did you reaLLY think i’d let you sleep heRE?!”
“How i know…”
“My mom suggested telling you that! She said ‘oh Joyce will probably say okay la la la”

Damn jahat
But her mom is supersuperdupernice
I remember she always gave us three, hugs before we went to bed last year

The next morning they took me to eat kueh chap before i left for the festival
Picture in post below

Oh yeah, besides Malibu, Shal loveslovesloves fairies too

Perhaps that’s why we bond so well

AndyKho and JoyceSuperKumQuat picked me up together with Andrea & Georgette from Borneo Post 
Driving from Kuching to Santubong takes about half an hour

 

There was a massive balloon at the entrance

Andy introduced me to his friends from kl, JollyAlan and FionaMalibu
We hit it off straight away due to our love for alcohol
We chatted and chatted and chatted
And ohmygod it’s a small world after all
They were actually supposed to join Adam & i at Penang  cos they know the whole group that was there too!
La la la happy happy

So we sat there and continued tani-ing till late
  

Do you know how much the beer there costs?

Do you know how MUCH THE BEER there COSTS?!?!

It costs… freaking FIVE BUCKS a CAN.
Holy coW!
Say it with me…

HOLY COW.

The sun was setting and i was testing out my flash in the evening light

Throughout the whole day there are a variety of workshops for you to choose from
All educating the crowd about random world culture like

Square dance music and early American songs
Native village stories from S’wak
Thai dance movements
History and culture of Mongolian music, instruments and songs
Gypsy dancing

You get my gist, things like that

Definitely not everyone’s cup of tea (especially KennySia)
But most definitely mine

The first one i went for was 

Heartbeat of Africa

The dance percussionists are called Yelemba D’abidjan from Ivory Coast
Throughout the weekend they performed traditional songs and dances based from tribes of the Senoufo, Guere, Yacouba, and Mandingue
(those who guessed i’m copying all this from the guidebook put your hands up)

They were very muskular ooh yes they were
I thought this one *points up* could look like some guy from B2K
So hot… *tries not to pant*

They were so so energetic and jolly the entire time
The tempo was lively and it was difficult not to grin and move along to the beat
Rarely do i see such heights in energy and bloody hell is it contagious!

I bumped into Nisha there among a whole load of random people
But i like Nisha so i took a pic with her :)

Nisha damn smart
I was telling her i took this before picture while they were setting up for the first night’s concert
And she replied
“I bet there was no ‘after’ right?”
“Urm heh yea…”
“Tipsy right!”
“Urm heh…”

It just… slipped my mind, that’s all
0_o

The first night…

I went to look for Justin most of the time

Such difficult decisions to make… tsk tsk

Edit: okay. Someone just told me thAT guys name is Bernie
Perhaps i should screen all the pics throught ppl first :p

Rina is absolutely tiny
So Henry is not that… tall either

Yeah, i had a crush on Justin when i was aged 9-12
Longest crush ever and i never spoke to him

And by the time i do a decade later
It’s alllll gone

Tsk such bad timing haha
