I uploaded pics to blog about the weekend, but i got distracted clicking on Malaysian Dreamgirl.
I’m just watching the second episode and i died laughing watching this part when they were asking a contestant what’s her favourite food.

Girl: Susi (i was like, huh? what? susu? susi? is this some… restaurant i don’t know…)
Judges: *all* What..?
Girl: Susi…
Judge Kenny: Susi?
Girl: Yes.
Judges: Sushi? Japanese sushi?
Girl: Yes.

Elaine put her head on the table laughing.

Okay i want to watch Alison and Ringo in action. Will blog later.

Here. Entertain yourself with a picture of Mr. Dragonfly #493 in my garden!

BzzZZz… BZZT!

“Oh, tish tosh, human.”

Fairy Transport.

We had a nice chat. Then i had to run out for event. He called me a snob. I said, hey look, you’re the one in my garden. Then he launched into a tirade on how land is every living thing’s property. I was all, whoa, you don’t understand how people deal with stuff here. He said we’re not done with our conversation yet, but it’s been raining so i haven’t seen him since then.

********************

Okay i finished watching Malaysian Dreamgirl till Episode 4.
Can’t believe i spent my time watching it -_-

I think Alison and Jay are the better spoken ones amongst the 12.
And they’re both hot, so i was thinking, “Man… these indians really have it la. Hot, got booty, and indians are always funnier.”
Prollie won’t comment too much on Alison cos i’m bias and i think she’s hilarious and smart anyway.

CheesieRingo… can see some of the girls aren’t happy she’s back in the show cos she’s a blogger.
The way i see it, the show’s aired online. So obviously the tv station wanted to get her back in for additional coverage of it, kan?
Marketing wut.
But i must admit i don’t fancy her on tv… she’s a genuine sweetheart and pretty but her tv presence has to be improved tremendously la.

I like Jean. She doesn’t speak with a (fake) accent whatsoever and there were some things she said which made me warm to her.

Valerie’s pretty cool too. Def more spunk then most of them.

There’s one girl who said she’d be perfect modeling for Victoria’s Secret, or something like that.
I was like, are you fucking kidding me?
At least say la something more down to earth like Coke or Canon or something.
Can die wei hear some of these answers.

Then there was another one was super whiny and crying.

The others i don’t remember cos nothing much.

Friends aside, my favourite contestant is:

Hanis, Malaysian Dreamgirl

Hanis Winky

She’s the youngest of the lot at 18, but i feel the way she presents herself isn’t pretentious. Yeah, some are complaining she’s manja and shit, but i think she’s damn adorable la.

Go Hanis!

…

Walau, who would’ve thought i’d get into this Malaysian Dreamgirl thing?

-_-

 

Freedom!

Today, i had the freedom to wake up at WHATEVER time i wanted… do you know how rare that is?!

To wake up when you want - without contemplation of work, a monkey on your back regarding something you have to do, rushing to get ready to see a friend you have to meet, worrying whether the person you’re waking up with wants to get up already, laundry to throw into the machine, chores you have to get done.

Today, i pulled a Kevin Pleased

And it FELT SO GOOD.
I buried my face into my pillow, its smell, why, smelling of me! and continued snoozing till well past noon.
Absolutely glorious.
Bliss.

Was in a 100% contented mood when i woke up (finally).

Threw my bedsheets into the washing machine, since it was so sunny and all.
Then when it was done, it started to storm.
-_-

Met up with AshleyTheMonkey + PassedOutBen and we did something like the old times: simply yam-chaed all afternoon.

Last night was fab. I got a call from an unknown number:
“Hey, what’re you doing?!” - unknown person
“… Working. At home. Who’s this?”
“You don’t know who this is? So what you doing later?!”

Then i recognised the voice.
AlcoJason.
I TOTALLY forgot he was coming back yesterday!!!

Needless to say, i dropped EVERYTHING i had on my agenda and ran off to spend time with him.

I’ve been a prisoner of my own emotions. A double-edged sword. With extreme circumstances that line itself on either sharpened end. I hate the feeling, yet i drown in it with joy.

I can’t wait to go traveling in January again. The euphoria of being carefree and submerging myself in a world that doesn’t involve deadlines, coordinated fashion and social politics is… welcoming and a world in which i can see myself in.

Again. I should have been born in the 60s -_-

This is me being give-no-fuck on Mount Batur:

Mt Batur

MUNCH!

Because boiled eggs just taste so much better in higher altitude.

Okay. Time to see MaryBerry now! *scampers off*

 

I’m backlogged, I know. Here’s some BBC beauty while you wait.

I have quite a nice little heap of work, writing and blogging to catch up with.
To ensure completion, i’m staying at home tonight.
Yay for Tuesday being a public holiday!

Daddy’s putting up new shelves for my ever growing collection of shoes as i type. Heart
“What’s with women and shoes? Why do women need so many shoes??” he stalked back into the storeroom.
“Hey… if you see properly, i don’t have any type that’s the same!!” i called to his retreating back.

I must sort out all my clothes tomorrow.
Daddy comes up with the best quips, i swear -
“You know what, your room is like KL. It has a 5-year plan.” Laughing
“Hey! *indignant* I already cleared out all my junk! It’s just the clothes left to sort out!” Bummed

Anyway, i’m either going to sell all the clothes that i’ve worn a few times to events, at the next Lap Sap Junk Sale OR i’ll plan a fashion swap sale for girlies Winky

TOMORROW is an important day, as AlcoJason - beloved childhood friend, public-claimed male version of me, and partner in party activity crime - will be back in KL tomorrow! I blogged about him leaving the last time, and at a drunk moment, also chucked him into one of my blurry posts.

The part that was about him was this:

“Inseparable is waiting all year to see that person
And for that one week they return each year,
Spending every single day with them in ecstacy“

Watch the video, watch the video!
ZedeckSiew gave me the link to it, for which i appreciate.

I’m unsure whether i was being emo or what, but everyone knows how i love nature and i teared in the middle. Things like this make me crave to travel all the more… cos there’s still so much i have yet to see/taste/smell/drown/bask in.

 

Why Should I Feel Disappointed?

I did a tad. Just a tad.
Then i told myself - Old habits die hard.
And i’m glad all that’s happened, occurred.
It reminded me of why and not regret and wish i did it all earlier.
Stormy Sky

Aiyo. I meant *they* were on a roll.
It was 6am when i edited that and if this was last time, i would reedit it.
But hell. I’m too lazy, tired, too much other work to do, it’s late right now, and it’s a blog. Sorry.

I was terribly annoyed that i couldn’t capture what i saw with my eyes (my SLR has yet to be serviced)
The clouds were way more magnificent then above… can you imagine?!
They were breathtaking.
They are the reason i stand stone still at the window at times, floating on a natural high called breeze.

Went for the Harper’s Bazaar Fashion In Focus event in Aseana, KLCC last Friday.
Harper’s Bazaar

Exhibited along the central path of the event were superb images the Harper’s BAZAAR team have created.

Harper’s Bazaar

I didn’t take many pictures there… >_<

Benjamin + Joyce

Ben + i

Went for the party at Bar Blonde after that which was… i think less eventful then the previous ones.
I’m sticking to a different tactic from now on (whoops i can’t write here what it is :p)

Then off to regulatory TAG for DramaticKim’s birthday

Kimberly De Silva

I felt quite drunk after having heaps of champagne, wine, vodka, whiskey and beer; so i headed downstairs to sober up sendiri at 2am.

DoorBitchIvan teman-ed me for awhile though i have no recollection whatsoever on what i said to him.

Below is a poster outside Zouk…

Below is a typo…

Sorry, i’m just really fucking anal about spelling, especially on publication and advertising materials.
I still adore TAG, no less :D

I find myself different from last time, the time when i couldn’t control my alcoholism.
When i hear friends complain about their friends getting aimlessly drunk and getting way too drunk for their safety, i feel a connection there.
What i’m saying is, when i had my problem with alcohol, i couldn’t explain it.
I couldn’t explain why i’d drink so much and not stop.
I couldn’t explain why i’d think i was invincible with alcohol.
I couldn’t explain why i’d want to drink excessively every time i could get my hands on it.

That would best be described as a chronic drinker.

Through time and (i think) increase in work (or dare i say it, maturity), i decreased drastically in my alcohol intake.

I stop drinking when i feel i’m reaching my limit.
And you ask, how can i not know my limit when i drank so much last time?

I cannot explain it.

I would just drink and drink somemore. Even when i was already drunk, i would think that i would still be able to withstand it and continue unconsciously.

Though painful losses and dangerous lessons contributed to me decreasing, it never actually stopped the entire habit wholly.

I don’t know. I suddenly thought about writing about it when a few people approached me tonight asking why i wasn’t taking advantage of the freeflow.

I’m not the absolute freeloader i used to be. OF COURSE i still fancy drinking and who can say no to free alcohol? What i’m saying is i’m not keterlaluan hadap for it anymore.

Somehow (thank the gods though i don’t know how), i manage to be more conscious of myself when i drink now. I stop when i think i’ve had enough.

I think what i’m doing here is just trying to explain other people’s chronic drinking habits. I’m not saying it’s something acceptable. I’m just saying that… at that point of time, i really couldn’t control what i was doing despite going overboard more then twice a week. And the entirety of being able to be in control was by luck.

So yeah.
I still drink every day -_- Sunday is my non-alcoholic day.
I still want to go to Pathlab and get my liver tested to know for myself how much damage i’ve inflicted unto it.

But at least i’m in a different phase in my life where i’m not the terbabased drunkard i used to be.

Not to the extent where… it was so bad i don’t even want to begin with the stories.
