Shahril & Viana's Wedding. (Nice to see, not nice to experience)

He is my cousin on my father's side and I have always think that he is the most handsome cousin I ever had. Not that I have incest thoughts or something, please lah,hor?

Yet again, another wedding that is not conventional. Not that there is nothing wrong to modify the arrangement of the wedding, but it's sad to know that many weddings nowadays are opting out certain traditional acts of a malay wedding.

[I plan to blog/rant about this so watch this space]

We were sort of late and by the time we reached my cousin's place at Jurong, they were already heading to the girl's place at Yishun. It wouldn't be a problem if my Mom, Jhon, Shibly and I are not in the back of Abg Awil's work lorry which has no aircon, no windows etc. Luckily it was in the morning so it was not so humid.

When we reached Yishun, everyone was there and was simply waiting for the "Tok Kadi" who is going to marry them off. Even that arrangement was funny because they didn't exchanged rings after the ceremony so all the while, I was wondering when did they did that? I still don't know. -_-

The father of the bride CRIED while officially announcing that he is giving away his daughter.

Very touching can?

It was after everything was settled and it was phototaking time with the family was where it kinda went shitty. The bride's family seemed to be lost in their own world and were not good hosts to us, the family of the groom.

It was 12am and we were hungry and no one invted us to eat. So my forever brave mom was asking everyone, when can we eat and everyone was hungry.

THEN HOR!! the mother of the bride was sacarstically saying,

"OH! its self-service okay? You can help youself".

It's not about being served, we just thought it would be proper ettiqutte to be invited to eat rather than happily help ourselves while the others are taking photos.

So we all went to the buffet table and lo and behold! Food was NOT ready, not even the drinks!! -_-

And we overheard that they will serve food at 2 -3pm! How can you start an event at 11am and serve food that late? And she lied to our hungry faces!!

I don't know about other family members but we were getting cranky because we have not have our breakfast and had to wait for a LATE lunch but we tried our best being cool, taking our own photos etc.

Eventually, they served the food earlier and you would be amazed the suddenly long queue of the food. We are not the bad guys okay? We just happen to voice out what every one is thinking.

Felt a little better after that, Abg Awil sang a song requested by my Sis and I made Jhon write in the guestbook.

Even signing the guestbook was a little of a commotion. My dear Jhon was already struggling to write in malay while I was whispering to him how to spell and irritating flirty aunties were up and around us, talking so loudly and standing too close to us. I say flirty because I left Jhon for a few seconds to take the camera and they were uncomfortably distrubing my Jhon. -_- He is so stressed that his handwriting sucks. haha

That picture in the guestbook was the most decent & sweet among others.

Why?

Most pictures chosen for the guestbook are the act sexy photos. -_-

Well, the bride and groom finally came down with their 2nd outfit of the day and not with a "kompang" but drum/bongos thingy. I won't deny their outfit looks great accept for her Medusa head gear but the music does not match their traditional outfits at all. =(

We immediately went home after that.

Not before Abg Awil felt sick and vomited in the carpark due to gastric.

Weird thing was I IMMEDIATELY fell sick as soon as I reached home with high fever.

Today was another ceremony but this time, sole on my cousin's side but I was still sick so my family went without me.

As guests, there was a kinda weird experience.

   

Money Is Not The Root Of All Evil

It's a common term, "Money is the root of all evil" but I strongly disagree.

I mean, look at it, it is a very harmless, piece of inked paper/polymer or silver/mint coin.

I think the worst damage it can do is give you a paper cut and I'm pretty sure it's painful when a handful of coins is thrown at you.

Money is not evil, People & their Greed is evil.

'Nuff said.

   

That Malaysian SMS Scam

Been meaning to post this but eventually forgot about it until I received another SMS this morning.

On 27th October at 4.42am, as I was blissfully sleeping, I was 'wonderfully' interupted by an SMS.

Sent from Malaysia and translated in English:

Congratulations! Your sim card has won a prize, $20,000 from PT.COC@COL@. Please call the office: +6287841455526, Thank you.

Sender: Coca Cola 

Wow personally sent by COCA COLA!

I don't know how they get my number since I dont even make calls to Malaysia and always off my HP whenever I am overseas because I don't have overseas roaming.

This is my 2nd SMS received in the 'wee' hours again, at 5.42am this morning.

Translated:

Congratulations!! Your sim card has won a cash cheque prize $9,000 from a Dangdut Mania Contest TPI. Please dial officer's number: +62818817299.

H.IBRAHIM SULAIMAN

When did I ever join a Dangdut Mania contest? hahahahahahaha!

Can you imagine if an old malay uncle received this SMS and his wife saw this SMS? How in the world would he explain this?hahha 

I must a very lucky person too, I have 'won' $29,000 in just a few weeks!

In all seriousness, you will be surprised with a number of people who will fall into this trap.

Please spread the word before it's too late.

   

Bullied with Name Calling?

Everyone has been bullied or name called at least once in the lives.

Being a very scrawny, geeky girl with spectacles and an overbite, I was an easy target for name calling.

I wish I have the guts to share my old pictures with you but you have to trust my word when I saw I was text book geeky and scrawny. I remember the first time Jhon saw those photos, I swore I saw him winced and had pity in his eyes. haha

Anyways, through out my schooling years, mostly my secondary school years, I was constantly bombared with insults everyday. No kidding.

Here are the few common nicknames I've been called.

Tales From The Crypt. Specifically, the Crypt Keeper

It sucks but I can't deny that I love the TV series.

[searching for his photos makes me want to find those shows and watch again =P]

Not forgetting, Olive Oyl, Popeye's Girlfriend.

Naturally, because of my teeth, I was also called The Rat.

And Horse Face.

Yes, people especially children can be very mean.

But as I enter my ITE years, though some nicknames still remained, there were also new ones.

These new ones are the ones that confuses me most because I was not sure whether should I feel insulted or not because although these people would call me in a mean way or mocking tone, what they call me does not seem demeaning at all.

One idiot would sacarstically call me Snow White because I was fair skinned.

Snow White? One of the disney princesses, is that an insult or compliment?

One of my favourite nicknames that was supposedly to be an insult was

Morticia Adams from The Addams Family.

As the group sacarstically laughed and gaffawed at their suppossedly witty quip, I gave a puzzled look and gradually a day dreaming smile because Morticia Adam is gorgeous to me.

Pale-fair skinned, sexy, mysterious and with a husband who adores her like crazy?

Woot! You can call me Morticia anytime!

Stupid assholes. hahaha

Anyways, its Halloween! Why not dress up as what these degenerates call you?

I also think it is a way to tell the fools you don't give a damn what they think and thank them for giving you awesome Helloween costumes ideas. hehe

See, I can secure at least 6 years worth of Helloween costumes!



Happy Helloween!!

 

Are We Heartless or.... ?

...the movie is not what it is turned out to be?

I am talking about the hyped malay movie, 'Lagenda Budak Setan'

Friends and family were sharing on how touching the movie was and how it made them cry for most of the movie.

Now, I am never a big fan of romantic movies because most of them are always too corny, mushy and unrealistic. I know I sound like a girl with too many broken relationships but I am not. I just dont like unrealistic acts of love because these acts that you see in the movies are not naturally done by real men.

And girls LOVE to compare real men to these actors in romantic movies. I am not saying that there are no men who are so damn lovable, sweet and a gentleman, they are very rare (I'm lucky to snag myself one). Then how about the other men? They are forever cursed with girls who think they are never romantic enough etc. even they are. You have no idea how many "sob" stories I hear from both parties.

But I digress. hahaha

So I rarely watch lovey-dovey movies unless there is nothing else better to watch on TV and since 'Lagenda Budak Setan' is suppossed a must watch movie, I watch lor....

My verdict

I didn't cry nor teared so obviously it does not have an impact on me like most people. In fact, my sis, brother-in-law and Jhon were not affected either.

Maybe it was because Jhon and I kept on giggling on the mushy parts of the movie and for me, some parts were predictable. When it hit 3/4 through the movie, it became a little random which was weird but nothing was weird than the ending. I don't want to spoil it for others so all I can say is don't expect me to continue watching it. =D

I did a little of research because you cannot rant without background work right?

I found out from 'The Daily Chili' that this movie was in fact from a novel written in the 80s.

But do you what made me scoffed and rolled my eyes like a windmill?

Extracted:

"The author confidently adds that Lagenda Budak Setan is better than the Twilight saga and hopes it will put Malaysia on the map of film and literature."

Better than Twilight Saga? lolololol

He must put the bar very low to compare to the Twilight Saga because Twilight Saga sucks!

When I watched the first sequel, I fell asleep and please, don't mention 'Vampire Sucks', a spoof of Twilight because it sucks as bad! haha

okay okay, I digress yet again.

Another words, unless you are the lovey-dovey kind in nature, easily fallen for corny acts of love, yeah, go on and watch 'Lagenda Budak Setan'. Other than that, give it a miss.

   

The Controversial Hari Raya Commercial

I didn't know about this until a friend shared this in Facebook; a Hari Raya commercial aired in Malaysia by TV3.

What is so controversial about it? Watch for yourself.

Naturally, we would have two groups of opinions.

Group 1
Totally opposing to the the commercial since the Pak Cik (Uncle) on the flying rickshaw resembles a lot like Father Christmas and the lotus flowers that symbolizes Buddhism. I think the only factor that can be related to Hari Raya is them wearing Malay traditional clothes and cooking Malay food.

Group 2

People who don't see what is the big deal about the commercial and thinks people in Group 1 should have an open mind and not to over think about such factors. It is a creative presentation and it is a fantasy concept that ought not to take too seriously.

What do I think?

Generally, I think it has nice graphics but since it is a religious celebration, I think it should reflect more on its values and ideas instead of extracting that is very commercially relatable to other religions.

I mean, it is already bad enough by misleading that Hari Raya is full of magic and not faith but to take example from other religions? -_-


Pak Cik on a flying rickshaw? That is soooo "Original"

You know what? the fact that it is unoriginal in the first place, fails as a good commercial; never mind the religious factor. =P

Venting Out Work Fail?

I wanted to blog and vent out my work stress that surfaced just two days ago. I even did a clip art to cleverly incoporate into my story to make it interesting...

But I gave up half way.

That is how exhausted I am with work and it turns out I don't even want to think about it.

sighs

Its about the passing the rotten egg to us and have to pass our beautiful Marina egg that has hatched into a chick to another person. What is worst, we have to catch up the 4month delay and the Project Manager is stuffing every trade through our nose as if we have no other work to do in hand.

That is just the jist of it and its okay if you don't understand, I am a zombie by now and zombies don't care!

I hope your days are better than mine.

What happened to the term “Ugly People = Nice People”?

I grew up knowing a fact that no one is perfect.

So if you tend to have some good attributes, there are bound to have bad attributes to counteract them.

Just like Ying & Yang

Simple example is:

A woman with a gorgeous body and when you look her face; she looks like a car had run over her face.

[You don’t dare act goody-goody with me; I know you have seen such women and think such things!]

Good looking people tend to have an ugly side and the unattractive ones are usually the nicer people. I know that not ALL good looking people are 'meanies’ and not ALL ugly people are nice but they are in the semi-majority class.

2 years ago, a group of big sized women from another company but within my district take a service bus that sends us out to Simei for lunch.

They are so obese that they have to walk sideways on the walkway of the Comfort Bus and they are so sloppy looking; one would think nothing of them right?

WRONG!

They are so freaking insecure that if Jhon and I laugh, they immediately think it is about them and they would say sarcastic remarks towards us. Most of the time, we would not give a damn but one can’t help but get pissed off right?

They have been at it for 3 years and even when we don’t pay attention to them, they would still comment very loudly at our direction, “Si dua tu ada” or “Menyampah” loosely translated as “The two of them is here” & “Irritating”

Lately, they have been talking less about us only because they have new people to irritate. My two malay colleagues who are very nice ‘kakak’ (sister). Infact, they are so nice that they are the rare few that I am close with at work.

These obese women would keep turning to stare at these ‘kakak’, saying things like “yang tu, yang pakai tudung” (the ones who wears a headscarf) & “ADA MATA PANDANG!!”(If you have eyes, just look!!); thinking that my colleagues are trying to sneak a peek at them. -_-

Who want to look at obese, ugly & sloppy women walking like crabs every day?

Here we are minding our business; they are only bringing attention to themselves in a bad way.

Their self-esteem issues must be sooooo low that they have to stoop to such a level to feel good.

Every day, we try to brush it off, not let our anger get the best of us and pity them for being a human that is ugly inside and outside.

"Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, NO!!!"- JJ Lin's not so great Cheer

If you are a Singaporean, you are probably aware of the overated and overwhelming advertisement of the Youth Olympic Games (YOG) which will be held in Singapore.

Our Mascots, Lyo & Merlyn.

 Idea came from our Singapore mascot, MERLION. yea, you don't have to be a genius to know that.

Months it even officially started which is on 14 August 2010 there where banners, posters and celebrations all over the place but my post is not about the overly enthusiastical commotion but about the infamous JJ Lin Cheer song.

It is has a catchy beat complete with dance moves but it is only appealing to kids & old people. (I have seen and heard people from both classes singing the song -_-)

It is purely irritating to people who are in between. Sure, I could not write & produce any better but see how I am not writing and producing one? I never knew JJ Lin until now but I heard he is an awesome singer so what happened?

Thank God they have an official YOG theme song that is less irritating.

Despite of EVERYTHING that annoys me, I cannot deny that I am somewhat proud that Singapore managed host the YOG and I absolutely love the advertisement.

Inspirational

Why didn't they have such advertisemet when I was younger? I could've have been a  professional runner/badminton/swimmer by now instead of a couch poato. =(

Accident Prone Me

So far, it is nothing serious, not like I broke an arm or have wound that needed stiches but I have been accident prone more than usual for the past month.

Thus far, I managed to...

• punched myself in the face twice
• hit my fingers countless of times
• banged my forearm twice, one left a wounded gash
• banged my right cheek on the corner of my side table; slightly swollen
• stub my toe and nail is semi peeled off
• twisted my knees
• get accidentally (I hope) hitted in the face by Jhon

and other random bumps on my body.

I don't know why am I so accident prone even if I am being careful.

I just hope that one day it won't get worst and lead me into crutches!

The Reality of Paul The Octopus

Even if not a football fan, everyone knows by now the famous Paul the Octopus.

The funny thing is that there are few people who didn't know that Paul is an actual octopus and thought it was some dude whose nickname was octopus. lol

Apparently, he is an oracle that predicts which team wins by "choosing" between two boxes containing food that is labeled with respective country flags. So far he is 80% accurate for UEFA Euro 2008 and 100% accurate for Fifa World Cup 2010.

 

Since he has been right for the World Cup so far, I am sure he has gained more believers. To a point the supporters of the winning team want to protect and 'sayang' (love) the OCTOPUS and who supports the losing team are swearing and planning seafood recipies.

 

It's always somebody else's fault right? Blame the octopus for losing, NOT the players. *rolls eyes*

 

If everyone really thinks the matches are determined by an octopus, then why bother hiring people to play football?

 

Why not everyone sit in a circle, surrounding the octopus and let him determine the winner and that's it.

 

 

Since World Cup 2010 is ending real soon, 11th July, it boils down to

Uruguay vs Germany for the third place and Netherlands vs Spain for the finals.

 

You know what? I think it will be hilarious if Paul's first wrong prediction is on the finals when he has gained many believers and bet alot of money on his prediction. I will be laughing so hard!

 

By then, people can't accuse the octopus and the people surrounding him for fraud and they would answer with "You are the stupid one for believing an octopus!!!" and laugh their way to the bank.

 

Fraud or not, I am not suprised that it would happen since Paul only predicts only for Germany's matches!!!

 

Well, it can go any way right? the odds are only 50-50.

P/s: I know I have resorted to the overated story of worldcup and Paul but I just have to get it out of my chest. =P

Working on a construction site?

Followers of my twitter account would know by now that there is a possibility of me moving to a site office for my Marina Bay tunnel project.

For those who don't know, I work in a construction industry as an Asistant Quantity Surveyor.

Thanks to my new Executive Director, he now insists that all QS is stationed on site instead of the HQ and from my knowledge, this is not neccessary since most of the work can be done at the HQ and QS would visit the site every week for meetings & monitor the progress of work.

But cannot say cannot right?

Anyways, it is not a container site office but an actual 3 storey structural office (4 years project leh) and my mentor will negotiate on the terms since our intial terms state otherwise but I have this feeling that we will still be going to site.

So I got to thinking, is that bad? Thats why I did this.

The more I thought about the politics that I have to deal/witness everyday, the more ideal it is to go to site although I could not hang out with my Jhon at work. I am taking it as a test for us since we are like super glued to each other. hahaha

I really hope everything goes well and smoothly for me when THE day comes, meanwhile, I shall enjoy my pros of working at the HQ.

Can a Teacher mark you wrong for spelling a name differently?

We all know that spelling of names is subjective. In the past, it was wrong because of a spelling mistake or wrong pronunciation that is projected into words.

When I was in Kindergarten/ Primary school, during English lesson, I would tend to get some of the names wrong and I will lose marks. =(

[Re-enacted =P]

 

One of my favorite names I like to use was “John” and no matter how careful I was, I always spelt it as “Jhon” so I stopped using that name to avoid losing marks due to “careless mistake” to Jack or Bala or Siti or something.

Little did I know, more than 20years in the future, I would be in a relationship with a man named “Jhon” So HAH! I am correct after all. ‘Cher! I want my marks back!!!

But now, to spell names differently is somewhat is an in-thing where the parents would purposely change the spelling to stand out also known as homonyms; different spelling but sounds the same.

Example:

Syikin > Shikin > Shikyn

Brian > Bryan > Brien

So do teachers still mark a student as wrong when a name is not spelled the textbook way?

Is it wrong to do so?

P/S: I don't have to try to write in kiddy handwriting, that was my actual handwritting and marked by my Jhon. FML

Smokers = Moth?

I was going home from work at Simei and i saw a cluster of smokers smoking while surrounding the green bin. Not a special sight right? 

 Especially Singapore have a littering law whereby first time offenders will be fined S$300; even if it was just a cigarette butt or sweet wrapper. (Why do you think Singapore is one of the cleanest countries?)

 [Jhon used to say that this sign says NO GLITTERING because the litter is shaped like glitters -_-]

Well, for some apparent reason, this particular bin is in the middle of human traffic.

It makes me think of the idiom, Like A Moth To A Flame.

So my imagination started to run wild...What if..... i place the bin in a random place? It would funny to see smokers still crowding the bin to smoke right?

How about near a cliff? At least they have a nice scenery. hehe

How about in front of a stampede of tigers?

In line of a shooting range?

A jetty with a hungry white shark?

It would be an interesting scene to watch eh? Yes, you should be able to guess by now that i am not a smoker. =D No offense yea? Just sharing my crazy thoughts. I have no problem with smokers, it's the inconsiderate ones that i can't stand and that is another story for another post.

By the way, do you know that we are having an event called "Live it up without lighting up"

Before you go "Oh no, here we go again, another boring campaign..." 

It is not! Infact, they are having Hip Hop dancing competition, moving flash mobs, local bands performing, digital ambassadors of some of your favorite bloggers and more all at Orchard Road on 29th May from 4.30pm onwards. 

For more details, click here.

Don't smoke lah.. hehehe

3 Reasons Why Aunties Should Not Be A Sales Promoter

 

1. Gift of the gab is not exactly a good thing when you simply wish to browse for items and you are bombarded with information you don’t wish to hear. Sure, you politely smile and say you are just glancing through items but she won’t give up. She will press on and try to stuff all kinds of information in a product that you looked for 3 seconds.
   
   
2. From my experiences with some aunties, they are tactless. Quite a number of times, as I was browsing some hair mask/conditioner, the auntie would blatantly tell me “You have very dry hair ah!” while touching my hair and continues with “So dry you know, very dry” and shakes her head.
   
   Well, since I am in the hair products section and looking at hair treatments, I would think it is obvious that I am well aware of the condition of my hair and if I wished to be pointed out the obvious, I would go to a modeling agency where they can freely slam me from head to toe. Thank you for publicly damaging my already low insecurities, auntie...
   
   Just yesterday (which made me write this post), I overheard an auntie sales person calling her customer’s feet fat.
   
   
3. If they “like” you, they will get too personal and talked about their family members. About how her daughter is very choosy in choosing a partner or her son is as tall as me. It was clearly a call for help for lack of communication at home but as a customer/stranger, it is very awkward and all you can do is smile, nod and slowly taking 1 inch of a step back as they follow you.

I am not saying that they should not work as Sales Persons in fact, I am happy for them for getting a job and get their body and minds moving but I just wish they are aware of the boundaries between a customer and a promoter. 

Do you have your experiences with the typical Auntie Sales Promoter?

 

Bad Friday

Though it is not the worst day i ever had but nobody likes a bad day right?

The whole day it already seems that i felt that i am like a fully stretched rubber band just waiting for that perfect moment to snap.

Sure i try to be positive and try to chill but things just won't go smoothly. Two prominent happenings would be..

When Jhon dropped his Ray Ban sunglasses (original and a birthday gift from me) at East Point Mall when he tried to hang it on his shirt. As soon as he was about to pick it up, a lady accidentally kicked it! It's ok, an accident right? but she kicked it THE SECOND TIME and it flew another 1 meter away! Wtf? She was wearing slippers, how can she not noticed that she kicked something out of nowhere?

Out of anger, i shouted "OI!" at her when i saw she kicked it the second time. I was afraid that due to her ignorant stupidity, she would kick it again. If i didn't shouted at her, she wouldn't stop at her tracks and noticed what the hell she was kicking! Damn pissed but luckily the sunglasses seems to be in an okay condition.

The other one is regarding work. Currently, i am busy helping with tender submissions (i am in the construction industry) and i dutifully prepared all the standard work of printing and putting the reports together(including 2 copies of 4 volumes). Technically, i completed everything i need to do, all what is remaining is on my co-worker's side.

At the last minute, they told me, they made some design changes and need to revise ALL the method statements, etc; meaning, i have to REPRINT everything. Submission date & time is Monday at 4pm.I checked my work and i can do all that on Monday morning so its not an issue.

BUT! they are throwing ideas about how WE need to do over time tonight and probably Saturday. Wtf? Why would i OT to do just printing? I have done everything, all they have to do is print and replace. They need my help for THAT? serious?

10 minutes before knock off time, another irritating person comes over and sat on MY desk to talk to my co-worker who is sitting BEHIND me! i was damn irritated that i stormed off to Jhon's table to chill. When i came back, he was gone but i received an email from my other co-worker.

She wrote:

"Do u know that that auntie behind u told our friend that she is very busy with the tender. Only done by her and Teresa. U only help in minor role only. Wow, like that also got to cheek to say she very busy! Did she help in the submission?

 

One thing I know, she is very busy in. busy in talking and talking. Haha……"

 Minor role huh? If it is such a fucking minor thing, why the fuck they need my fucking help?

I know they are doing the costings and measurements and i just did preparation of submission but its damn tedious to get all the information together ok? Like i said, if its damn easy, why do they need and insist for my help? 

And yes, the woman does talk ALOT. She has so many stories and always eavesdrop on people. Jhon and I calls her the Chatterbox. Damn irritated! Eventually, i just went home after the Project Manager agreed that i could just do the printing on Monday morning. HAH! 

I later found out that the Chatterbox did not want to OT either but when she asked if she could go home, she was ignored. BWAHAHA! 

sighs

Actually, i lied, there is another bad prominent thing that happened but i don't want to talk about it. It's too personal but let's say despite my celebratory escape from OT, the day didn't officially end well.

Thank God a day has only 24hours and about 1/4 of it is spent sleeping. 

I hope tomorrow is a better day.

"Interesting" People You Can Find At Concerts

I have been to countless of concerts/showcases since I embraced this lifestyle since I was 16 and almost every concert, you can find similar types of people. They can be weird, they can be funny but they are sure entertaining especially while waiting in line or for the performance to start.

Live photos are taken from BSB concert and thanks to my sis for the idea. Haha

The Who-Thinks-She-Is-Going-Clubbing: She must have been drunk and randomly joined the queue or something and usually fail in the face as in no makeup/with glasses.

The Gays: I am not talking about the cool gays either. It’s the young amateur gays that even put Kurt from Glee to shame.

The Ah Pek (old uncles): You wonder if they attend because of some contest that they have won OR are really interested in the show OR perverts when they stuck out like a sore thumb among hordes of screaming teenagers.

The Loners: I got to respect these guys. They attend concerts ALONE! I can never do that!

The Attention Seekers: They talk loudly, mostly I noticed are non-locals and even if they are, they have this failed slang and the boast almost about everything. 

The Odd Ball: Specifically, my sis and I ALWAYS see this guy at every concert/showcase/shindig many years back. Nothing special? He wears the glittering Michael Jackson Glove ALL THE TIME.

The Sugar Daddy: She is young; He is clearly not the father, nor an uncle. They both look uppity and OMG! She just lovingly stroked his face!!

The Mushy Couple: Can’t take their hands off each other and MUST wear couple clothes. Kissing is most likely to happen.

The Almost Sluts: They flirt & try to charm with the security guards and whoever is working there so  they can cut queue/get their friends without tickets in/find out the hotels of the performers. Sick! Remember, these are usually pre-teens ok!

and after the event, while waiting for a cab to go home, you will meet people like this.

 

This happened to us right after the BSB concert. We have been waiting for a cab for a good 10 minutes and they appear out of nowhere, stood infront of us and flailed for the on coming available cab!! I said loudly, "EH? EXCUSE ME?!?"

The girl just gave her stupid smile while walking towards the cab. The cab rejected him (and us) because he was heading to the opposite direction. Despite the fact that they were acknowledged of the lack of common courtesy, they still stood in front of us! The guy even tried to stand in front of my sis who was waiting at the other corner of the road and try to steal the available cab once again!!

All this while, they both give their idiotic smiles so what i did, i took a picture! =D In the end, they gave up when i told my sis i know a "secret spot" to get a cab which i don't. hahaha
But seriously man! the last time i had to deal this kind of nonsense situation was when i was in primary school! 

Kinda went sidetracked so there so there you go, different types of "interesting" people you can meet/see.

Sick as a Dog

When i get sick, i get really sick.

I started to have sore throat on Sunday and tried to drown myself with lots of fluids but obviously it didn't work. I woke up for work the next day feeling unwell but being the stubborn sick kid i am, i try to brush it off and get ready.

Even after a shower, i was still feeling unwell and after much convincing from Jhon, i decided to go to the doctor. I went about 9.30am and when i left the clinic, i had 5 types of pills and 1 day medical leave. Apparently, the doctor thought if he could stuff me with all kinds of flu medicines, i would get better in less than 24 hours.

Guess what? it didn't work. I vomited that night and the morning after while i was heading out to work. Yes, i still wanted to go to work even though i was clearly still unwell. So i did a U-turn and went back home and went to see the doctor yet again.

This time, i brought home anti-vomit pills and 2 days medical leaves;3 medical leaves in total. I told ya i was sick...

I slept most of the afternoon and yesterday i woke up with my aches on jaw and cheek bones. I have no idea how i got that although the night before i purposely didn't take my running nose pills so see how i slept.

I slapped myself in the face... TWICE. that might explain a few things. I also had night terrors after that about jumping leeches and i was shouting in my sleep till my mom has to wake me up. I don't think night terrors are normal for an adult. I had them since i was very young.

Anyways, I am starting work tomorrow. Feeling better but just don't expect me doing jumping jacks.

I hate being sick. urgh

Experiencing almost accidents in a 10 minute journey.

The plan was easy, a quick trip to my house at Kaki Bukit to take my 2 pairs of shoes, head to Parkway to a shoe shop to fix the heel on one and stretch the other and go back to my place to eat chili crab that mom cooked.

We decided to take a taxi to Parkway so that we will be there faster but lo and behold, we didn’t expect it would be one crazy ride.

Maybe we were bad luck to the driver or most of the drivers on the road are suffering from severe Monday blues but we experienced not only 1, not 2 but 3 almost accidents!!

First was a RED Toyota Yariz and the second was a RED Renault/Opel (?) which out of sudden cut us from the right lane along Eunos Link near the Eunos Technolink. We were shocked and the driver just mumbled some Chinese obscenities. [Our driver is a malay btw driving a Silver cab]

But the third one really takes the cake!

Along Jalan Eunos, passing Eunos MRT station, a RED Mitsubishi Lancer with license plate SGK8877T cut us out of nowhere until the driver almost lost his control! We were so surprised and pissed off because if it weren’t for the quick reflexes of the driver, we would have an accident with the cars surrounding us.

Our driver naturally angrily honked at the car and even gave the “WTF?” gesture when we passed by him on his left. The asshole is a young Chinese driver. Personally, he looked underage but he could just look really young but 100% 18-19years old.

What’s worst, he tried to catch up with our cab on our left and gave us the middle finger with a chin up. (How he did that in a traffic jam huh?) He even tried to HIT OUR CAB which cause the cab hit a bit of the road dividers but our driver managed to yet again regain control of the cab.

This BOY is just an ASSHOLE! He is clearly in the wrong cutting us in a traffic jam because of him trying to cut; we were forced to change lanes to give way to HIM. What if there is no space on our left? He even had the cheek to purposely hit us the second time.

A BOY who looks like he barely has all pubic hair and probably WHINE to his parents to get him a car because it will make him look cool, thinks that he is a hot shot but in fact, he is a worthless piece of shit who does nothing but endangers people’s lives.

We were in a steady traffic jam. All he needs is to hit a car and will have a domino effect if it weren’t for our driver’s steady hands, God knows what would happen to us.

ERGH! Pissed!

Even at the shoe shop, the guy was such a jerk serving us.

Thank God the day ended well despite of all the drama with mom’s chili crabs and sweet watermelon. SIGHS!!

P/S: what’s with the red cars huh?

Macho to Sissy Men

I just hate it when muscular men/actors takes in roles that turn them into sissy men. You know, more family oriented *rolls eyes*

Example(s)

I respect Jackie Chan. Despite of his big nose,he is crazy awesome with his spectacular stunts. He is like the modern age Bruce Lee.

This is a totally must watch video

but in his recent movie, he is turning into this:

It is such a turn off when guys like him heading for such a movie. Yea yea, i know, a crossover to appease the family oriented group but please!! To me, it is almost like a last resort.

And obviously, he is not the only one.

How about Hulk Hogan? The ultimate wrestler [of the 80s]

To Mr Nanny... WHY Hogan?! WHY!

Here is Mr Bodybuilder-actor-governer. As Conan the Barbarian.

Kindergarten Cop. Boo hoo! Burly man with group of kids.

Sexy Vin Diesel who was in movies Fast in the Furious and Pitch Black [the movie that i got a crush with]

To The Pacifier.-_-

Lastly, Dwayne Johnson. With his hot bod, charming smile...He can be any warrior he wants with his exotic looks..

But he choose to be "oh-i'm-famous-but-i-realized-that-i-am-a-father-from-some-sexual-escapade"

Worst, his latest movie is HIM becoming a Tooth Fairy..

TOOTH FAIRY!!

-_-

I know the movies that they crossover still have that action pack feel to it and they are probably trying to prove that they can do more than action but it is so predictable.

Every well-known action packed actor will always turn to a family movie.

I guarantee that those movies are up in their wall of shame because we all know, its for the sake of marketing strategy.

I hope they will eventually wake up and stop the horror!
