High Key Attempt!!

This is what I have been doing all this while..photographing myself..and this is the reason why I am so damn busy...now you know..I locked myself up in a room until I get the desired picts...

I've been Busy...again

Yes I know...most people would think that I can't be that busy until I can't even update my blog or fotopages. The fact is yes, I am THAT busy. I don't even have time for myself. I only transferred my Raya picture which consists of kitten and cats only 2 days ago...Since moving to Nomad, internet life is over. No more fast connection (Unlike Shell last time)...and it's all work work work. I don't even mind sitting in a spot where anybody can see my screen (this was a major factor when choosing a workstation last time)...cos now I got nothing to hide...it's all work work and work...And pressure has arise..stressed level exploded...what am I going to do now? Feel like resigning...I am no longer enjoying life as before, I got no time for friends, I always cancel any appointment in the very last minute (due to unexpected issue) and I do fire fighting everyday...issues..problems...all that is music to my ears..Do you think that I should be a firewomen? At least I can do REAL fire fighting :D

Checklist -
1- Reen open house tonight
2- Farhat open house tomorrow
3- Hasnor open house - missed it
4- My own open house?? (I prefer locking the door for the time being) :D

And I have 60++ bottles of COKE at home (Vanilla and Original)..anybody want one? Coke has treated me so great :D

Why Ramadan is challenging for me?

I can stand the temptation for food and drinks...there is only 1 that I seems like cannot live without...my pills a.k.a Ponstan or any pain killers that can shooooh away my migraine. My brain can't function when it feels like there is a windstorm fighting inside my brain. Man...I can't stand the migraine...

Awal Ashaari and me

For those who knew me for at least 3 years, they must have knew that Awal Ashaari is one of the few Malay guy that I fall head over heels :) And today I finally got to see him in person...So cute la this guy...thanks to Anis and Asri for the courage to ask him for pictures...I absolutley won't do that...I got nervous and talking non stop. Oh, crap..uncontrollable me :)

HAIR DRYER-DOWN...WALL-E-UP

Time to get a new hair dryer...It exploded and I am very scared. The sparks that coming out..and thank god I am fine and no fire detected :P

Wall-E...ahh..love the movie..Every bits of it..Romantic, sweet and sad...:D I even have Wall-E jibbitz for my marie jane..yippedabedooo....planning to find Wall-E figure..damn cute!

Planning to get this for me...tapi atas lasan..hadiah bday for donat but I can keep it :D http://pixarblog.blogspot.com/2008/05/interaction-wall-e.html

I am not good...

I don't think I am good in English. I don't think that I am good communicating with people. Did people ever notice that I tremble every time I am giving public speech or mingling around with people on topics that I don't have any idea at!!

It's a learning process...I am still learning and improving my English..People always thinks that I came from a family where English is the 1st language...Errrkk..wrong..very wrong..Both my parents, can't speak or understand it except for the greetings. Yes, during primary school, I ask them about this English exercise and they say they didn't know. I guess they were bluffing me because they were too lazy to help. But then I found out that they are telling the truth :( Shame of me. Hey, not my fault...they bought like a stack of great encyclopedias and gevergreen kids novel for my siblings and myself. How are they do it when they didn't even know the language???

All the credits goes to them...Without those books I won't be reading the encyclopedia by the age of 7 (I can read and understand English ..but can't speak yet)...And reading those Grimm's fairy tales...Heidi...Alice in Wonderland...to name a few...

And thanks to my elder sister and brother for the music influence :D Those Yngwie Malmsteen at the age of 8? And Bon Jovi...MJ...Metallica (And Justice for all)...Really into these when I was very young..and they also happen know how to rock that guitar...yeah!!

And thank you to all my siblings...for the inspiration and motivation..4 out of 5 went to study abroad...UK and US...but then..my fate is not as good as them...but yes I managed to enrolled in some local universities. Did I already mention that my eldest brother is the top 3 student for SPM result in Malaysia during his time? And my second brother is the the captain for STAR Junior Rugby team and they defeat Singapore on the SPM exam's eve? hahaha..

These are the things that shape a family. I wonder, if I am the eldest..how did the family will turn out? Did my youngest sister screw up? Did I gave good example to my siblings? Hmm..I don't think I can carry the burden, let alone the parent's expectation :D

Am so glad I am the youngest and have a good family that shape me to be a good person :D I learn to tolerate, to share and to defence myself when it is necessary...

And yes..I wrote this blog on Friday night where I had nothing to do except reading Jodie Picoult while listening to Maroon 5 or Jason Mraz...

The catz...

for more pictures, feel free to browse http://adesh82.fotopages.com

It only took me a matter of seconds to spot the presence of a cat in my parent's house. As I arrived last week, there is a cat in the porch lying down relaxing. The first question that I asked my dad is did they gave her food? And surprisingly he said, 3 times a day. Yes, it is confirmed that this cat is not just temporary stray cat. It is ours (not allowed inside the house)!!

And yes, she got 2 little kitten. Cute and adorable...I can't wait anymore and try to shoot them. I love the feeling of having a cat :D..not 1..but 3 cats...

ADESHI ON LOMO AND TRAFFIC

Lomo effect on my fren Ojakawaii

NON LOMO - Danga Bay makan place

LOMOGRAPHY - I fell in Love with it since I first saw the camera and the picture it produce :D There is some kind of feeling and connection that comes from the picture...An yes, I spend most of my lazy Sunday afternoon edding LOMO effect to my SG pictures using CS3. Hevy editing I would call it...

Check out the whole collection http://adesh82.fotopages.com/

TODAY - What the hell is going on? The traffic was so bad and I took like almost 45 minutes to reach the office...It's not even 10km from my home :( Disasterous Monday morning

MY First Outdoor shoot

More pictures in http://adesh82.fotopages.com

This is my first time shooting a model. Yeah...both the model and photographer is amateur :D So please don't expect my pictures to be so breathtaking as I am still learning :D
But the outcome is pretty OK..but I still feel as if there is something missing in the pictures. The photoshoot took place in Putrajaya organized by Alan and his wife, with Zana as the model and Wan, Puding, Donut, Alan and me as the photographer.

I need to improve!!! Badly...
I won't give up no matter how hard it will be..as this is my ultimate passion!

ROGER LOSING IN WIMBY AFTER 5 YEARS...DAMN!

tough lost for him...I am crying too

If I am in his place..my face will be bitchier than this :(

Before the match..look at his Cardie..superb

He won it..:( damn

Yes..he lost Wimbledon to Rafa in 5 set battle 6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (5-7), 6-7 (8-10), 9-7, which took them almost 5 hours. It was a tough lost for him..as a BIG fan..I feel the dissapointment that he is facing...a line fro Rudyard Kipling's poem "IF" that is written in the Centre Court entrance summed up this final :

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on'

Okie..congratulations Rafa..and I am not very sure whether I am still his fan or not...I like him but after he beats Roger..I am not sure where do I stand now...

SIMPLE TALK ON "BUSY"...

Some people claimed they are too busy and occupied wif work...and they keep on writing blogs about it...

Now..I am one of them...with a slight different...yes..I was and am too busy wif my work..my job...and my life...my long lost reborn hobby and of course my relationship..juggling these everyday driving me crazy...and that is why I haven't updated my blog since like ages..because I am busy...I am too tied up wif work and can't even write my own blog...I was too busy until somehow the idea of breaking up came to me...it is just because I can't take the pressure to concentrate on everything that is going on with my life...It's more to lesser the burden for me and other people..ok..no...i am still not single...I am only giving the break up idea a thought :D

I just can't do it...somehow I kinda made it..maybe...and that is why I am writing this blog...I have a bit of free time..ample time..
And I just hate it when people whining about how much workload that they have..and giving credits freely to themselves...I just hate this kind of people..and also ungrateful people...yes..these people exist in my life...and they are out there somewhere...

And yes..while I am writing this..Roger is down 2-0 to Nadal in Wimbledon...sigh...what a fate...just like me...

I CAN'T SLEEP

What the hell is going on my eyes? Usually I can sleep whenever I want..wherever I want. Now I just want to take an evening nap before working @ 4:00pm and yet it's the hardest thing to do right now. I've turn and tossed for almost an hour but yet...to no avail.
Man, I am very sure by the time I start my KT session with the Canadian I will be f**king tired and sleepy. Sounds like I need a glass of Starbucks coffee here!!!

TERGIGIT LIDAH...SAKIT..MAYBE THE FEELING IS WORSE!!!

OR..DOES IT REPRESENT SOMETHING EVEN MORE TERRIBLE THAN WORSE??

Tadi...tergigit lidah..ouch...thought that it is a normal cut..but..tengok2 kat cermin dalam lif (nasib baik sempat close the door before orang berlari2 nak masuk)...teruknye...bengkak and kaler hitam seperti lebam :( sighs...

I guess today is really not a lucky day for me...semua benda tak menjadik...very bad luck...when I am driving..I feel something bothering me...and I did redundant work last nite until 3 a.m...And I can't concentrate during the training...and yes..the tergigit lidah thing !

But I guess the most terrible of all is what happen during this exact date in 2004...Four years ago...it's 27th May 2004 and everything went wrong that day...terribly wrong..worst day of my life ever :( undeniably sad...

Well...I guess people hardly knows this but 4 years ago..on this exact date and almost the exact time..my mother passed away because of heart attack in Hospital Ipoh...No sign..no warning...She left us without signs :( She neither sick nor suffering from heart desease...but yes...Her time has come to an end...And part of me had come to an end..together with her memory..

I could never forget her...even in my pinkest of health or my worst pf time...I will always love her unconditionally...She always appeared in my dreams...Hugging and kissing me...Telling me advice...which somehow relates to my current situations...And in my dreams..she is not alive...as people will assumed she is...But in all my dreams somehow she's dead...but allowed to visit us on ad-hoc basis which neither both of us knowing. WHne she's given the chance...she will come...And at the end of the dreams she will wave goodbye to me as her time has ended...she has to go... :(

And I remember waking up from my dream...Crying...alone...without mummy :(

Let's sedekahkan Al-Fatihah pade Almarhumah Robiah bt. Othman..semoga rohnye dikalagan orang yang beriman...Amin :)

I miss u mak..I love u mak...

THE WHOLESOME WEEKEND

It was tiring, it was exhausting, it was amusing and best of all...it was terrificly FUN!
I will say that my last weekend is kinda mix emotion on the positive and negative side of me...

Saturday

Swimming class from 9:00am-12:00pm...this is my 2nd class and together with me is Syaz, Yang and Anis. Great accompany but I seriously didn't understand why is my confidence level was so low that day. I can't even float like I used to. And my fear is controlling my body and I can't even do the breast stroke's feet movement that we have just learned, I guess it was a really bad day for me. I came home feeling exhausted and disappointed with myself. I only go out at night watching Speed Racer in Alamanda. Great movie as I have the memory of watching this cartoon when I was very young. And I do enjoy the cartoon a lot!!!

Sunday

Another swimming class. Now I feel better. I have gained my confidence back and fight the fear. We learn the hand movement, and breathing in a 2m pool and learn to kick ourself from the pool floor up, and best of all...terjun2 dari tebing! It was terrifying moment where you need to jump and fall into the water? Sound like a no winner for me. But instead of thinking too much, I just jump like a bird..yes seriously like a bird and that makes my technique wrong. You have to keep your hand straight or up during the jump, instead, my hand is totally like the titanic style (Popular hand gesture by DeCaprio and Winslet in Titanic) and it makes me hard to touch the pool floor. It was fun and I was very happy to gain my courage again..so in the evening I bought another swimsuit from Arena in Pavilion. They have the item on sale and I get it with only RM74 for a top and shorts. Not bad huh?

Monday

I know, this is not weekend but I do feel great about myself today. I have no Monday blues. Maybe because the 3rd class is this evening and I can't wait to dip myself in the pool..wink2..and even better..can't wait to wear my newly bought swimsuit!! wuhuuuuu....

Wish me luck today!!!

The so-called Fire Drill @ TH Perdana

Eventhough I have worked for 2 years in Arinso, this is the 1st time I experienced the fire drill practice in TH Perdana..it's almost like a virgin to this practice in the building (~~Like a virgin...touched for the very first time...*madonna 's hit 80's single in the background~~)

So, we've been informed that the practice will be somewhere around early May. And, making the right guess it's this week. And they did it today. But, why are they doing it at 10am??? mean most Arinsonians are not coming to the office yet(if i knew i will extend my beauty sleep until 10am..sigh) So, those who just came in informed me that the Fire truck is already downstairs...and before the alarm rang, I make my way down from 33rd floor to ground by the ELEVATORS :D. Pretty smart huh? Downstairs, there are a lot of arinsonians waiting at the boulevard of the broken dream. Some of them are just arrived and some of them are already prepared. Yeah, we are all very good in escaping ourself from trouble. That is what a good consultant does!!

Most of us (including me) making our way to the Starbucks, foodcourt and kopitiam to just lepak while waiting the fire demo to finish. I mean, I am not gonna stand there for an hour just to watch the demo that I have already seen a million times before. Well then, that's how a fire drill practice should be done...without haste, without sweat...and without pain..and even with food, drinks and good companion!!!

* notice that during high school or college the frie drill is always at 3am in the morning??? sighs...

MY RED KLIPPAN

27th April 2008, I bought my Red Klippan. After looking around at other furniture shops available in town for maybe another cheaper alternative, finally I settled down with Klippan. It's kinda cheap and comfy..and of course being me..I love RED and I LOVE IKEA!!!
Now I need to find a matching rug for this new Klippan and invite people over to hang out :D
Do you think I should look around again or just go straight to IKEA? hehehe...

THIS MORNING...KNOCKED DOWN

The traffic was bad...the attitude was bad. I was on my way to work when an old woman cross the road. And the traffic was bad..so she should be crossing it without much problem...I can see she's just came from a groceries store as I can see Greens and stuffs...then I stop and she crossed in front of Cicak and me...but then..suddenly I heard a banging sound...And there she was...lying on the street with her stuff all scattered. The cat next to me hit her...she almost reach the other side of the road as she was hit by the left edge of the car. Crazy car..I dunno why it won't stop and give way...as the distance between him and the other car is not more than 1 car wide...get what I mean? This is stupid street behavious that I hate most in men...they just want to drive fast..konon2 macho and finally...jadi macam ni la...poor lady..but I wonder how was she manged to get up very quickly while packing up her things..and the guy? Is not even out from the car...come on..everybody have to go to the office...and this guy proves that Malaysian are selfish...

FEDERER LOST IN MONTE CARLO MASTERS SERIES...
RAFA WON...THE KING OF CLAY...

It is sad...he is lost but losing to the King of Clay, not bad for Roger as he fight 5-7,5-7 in a straight set. And I guess Roger is back...playing better than ever...And congrats to Rafa...I love you too..but I love Roger more...hahaha...But Rafa set a world record when he won both the series for single and double performance. What a King of CLAY he is!! And this is the 4th time he won Monte Carlo MS...and his still have his impressive 99-98 won in clay court...(1=lose to Roger in Hamburg)

WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID

Nadal: To win a fourth consecutive Monte-Carlo title? "Is very special moment for me. I played all the tournaments this year very well, but I didn't play the last match of every tournament well because I lost easy in Australia, I lost easy in Indian Wells and I lost easy in Miami... So winning for me fourth time in a row is very, very special. Probably one of the nicest tournaments of the world. At 0-4 in the second set? "Just think about I gonna lose the set, but try to lose the set 6-2, not 6-0 or 6-1 to go to a third set with good feelings. "That's what I was thinking at that moment and I just try to fight every point because he was playing fine and I was going a little bit more behind the court, one meter behind. So he has the control of the court, of the point, always in that moment. I thought I have to go a little bit more inside and try to fight for every point."

Federer: "I thought I played okay. Disappointing second set, I guess, after playing the right way against him and then letting him back into the match. It was disappointing. Maybe I didn't play my best for sure. But it's tough against him and he deserves to win in the end... because he's a helluva clay court player. "Honestly for me it's a very positive week of coming back from the brink in the first round, and beating great players on the way to the finals. I'm pushing Rafa today, having the feeling I can beat him, if I play the right way. And I think that's the feeling I didn't have after Monaco last year. "The amount of times I got broken today wasn't what I was hoping for but at least I was finally able to break him also on several occasions, which is the good part. Maybe my attacking game didn't work that well maybe like in the past against him."

The Final Score

Rival but friends..how sweet

Winning the Monte Carlo ATP MAsters Series for 4th consecutive years!!

Trying his best...I know you are

THE PD TRIP/BBQ

Well..my friends are always buzy, so I followed Donat's team for a weekend getaway in PD. Agenda? simple...Lepak, chatting, BBQ and mandi laut. And the best part is..I marinated the chicken myself..and it tasted soo good..bangga2..and finally I can show my cooking skills to people :D And, I loove cooking...I found satisfaction and comfort in it...ahahaha...well now..let the pictures tell the story! I was at the grill all the time with the guys during the BBQ...I am so loving it!!

Lepak and chatting masa baru sampai @ apartment

I am trying my best here ok!!

ROGER FEDERER WON ESTORIL OPEN (clay court)

Finally he won his first title for year 2008 against Nikolay Davydenko when he retire in second set due to injury. With his new hired clay coach, I hope he will make it in Roland Garros and claim his 1st Grand Slam title for Clay court!

*same hat again (*_*) wink~wink

Federer: “It feels great to win a title again and the circumstances were unfortunate. It would have been nice for Nikolay to finish. I think it’s the first time in my life that someone has retired against me – in 70-80 finals. It was cool in the cold conditions, but it is a great start to the clay-court season to win a title.
“It’s a good week for me to start off with. I think [Higueras] is happy for me, he didn’t confuse me and we’ll be off together to Monaco for hopefully a good week there.
“Nikolay felt something at the end of the first set, I saw Nikolay holding his leg before the changeover. I congratulated on a great run in Miami, Davis Cup and it is unfortunate to celebrate a win in this way. I’m still very proud to have won this tournament.”

TAKZIAH TO KAK ITA

Who is Kak Ita? My former Team Leader in Teliti Computers. She just married to Major Wan Johan for about 9 months. She lost her husband this morning because of heart attack...It's sad to think about it when she is almost at the end of her pregnancy and...nothing left to say :(

*Al-Fatihah to Major Wan Johan

CUPCAKE CHIC

No offense, but I really hate this place. I do love it's chicness of interiors and also the ambience. But the cupcake? Totally not my taste! I am not writing this entry to sabotage their business but this is only my point of view. Democracy kan Malaysia ni..sooo takpe la. The cashier is nice and everything is great except the cupcakes! And there are no more reason that I could find that can make me come back here except if a friend chose this place to hang out.

Their cupcakes are very so-so, the design is cute and clean. Ok, so I really excited to makan it. And then the price...quite expensive, RM4.50 per cupcakes where secret recipe's brownies are cost almost the same but bigger and tastirer. This cupcakes are reakky high in sugar...It is so sweet, I can't even finish half of my cupcakes! Thank God I only bought one for me and one for donat! Baik la pegi makan donat kat Big Apple!!!

It is so sweet and kills my appetite and my mood. I just hate it when a food/drinks taste like sugar. Kalo macam tu baik makan gula aje. Eg : Kopi yang terlalu manis sampai rasa kopi dah tiade, cupcakes yang terlalu manis sampai rase macam makan a big chunk of sugar etc2.

So..this is only my opinion and yes, they have a lot of customers, I can see a lot of people coming to the shop..and it makes me think that one of my theory is true which is, Malaysian's only consume very sweet food/drinks. If it's not sweet enough, they can't sell it all! What a shame!

My Weekend is splashingly fun !!

Saturday morning :

I went for my 1st swimming class with Jaja and Syaz. I was so scared and panic and that's kinda explained why I sesat like orang gile finding my way to Syaz's house and even finding our way to the UITM Pool!!! I took me almost 2 hours and the student's...are so not helping. If there is a subject about how to tell the direction to a stranger, they will definitley failed!!

Ok..the class is informal and it is somewhow ease my worries when the ambience is so relaxing and the instructor is not using any wiesel :P. It's a great achievement for me when I am now able to dip my head inside the pool and breath out for around 6-7 seconds. I know..people might fell it's not a big deal..but for a HYDROPHOBIC person like me..It's a BIG STEP...and I know how to float..just for a while...but..hey..I thinks that's is a good start! I am now not really afraid being in a pool..even the height is at my neck :D

And I spent the rest of my Saturday...sleeping and lepaking at my sister's place...waiting for any friends to call me out for a dinner..or movies or anything...but yet...my phone stood there silently until midnight :(

Addition to that : ROGER FEDERER won the Estoril Open - clay clourt ! Good Luck for Roland Garros Roger!

MAYBANK 2 U

Noticed the word use to save our frequently transferred account num is 'FAVOURITE'?

Favourite Interbank Transfer...

Favourite Registered Payment...

I think the Favourite is totally wrong here. Why? Because I am trasnferring money, my money to that account every month for loans, CC etc...and does it sounds like something fun to do? Is it your favourite things to do every month after the salary kicks in - transferring money from your acc to loan account? So, you get what I mean...and the word "FAVOURITE" is totally not quite right here.

They can take the word "Frequent" ot better "Loathe" (hehe - Loathe Bank Transfer) to replace this word Favourite. Contradict to it's description, I hate to click the links and yet the name is Favourite...duuuhhh

(*.*) ~ splash ~ splash

This has been one of my YM status during this week. Why? It represent the water sound that swimmers make...And I am gonna be one soon :D My swimming class with Jaja and Syaz will start tomorrow 19th April 2008 at 9am! Looking forward to it, but feeling a little freaked out since I am Hydrophobic, low stamina and FAT!

Wish me Luck for the class!

HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR CAR LADIES?

I was listening to this radio station while riding a cab to the office and they came across with this topic. Then I asked myself how much do I know about my car? This is a few that I have figured out which is the basic essential for girls I guess :

(1) I know what the mechanics do when I go for car service in terms of what engine oil to use, changing filter, radiator, and the fact that spark plugs are not necessary to change everytime you go for car service and Kelisa only use 3 if my memory serves me !

(2) This is the best part..I know when to change my brake pads, front brake and the back tyres. And I know how they install it. Seriously I can feel when it is worned out cos I am so lazy to hit the break pedal and the moment the brake is not 'makan' already, I simply knew it!

(3) I know how to refill my radiator fluids.

(4) I can feel it when the absorber is out!

(5) I know how to change a tyre, but I am so lazy to do it and make my boyfriends or any other friends to change it for me as I will take ages just to lift up the tyres :S Very heavy for me...

(6) I know when my eczos (correct spelling ka?) is not functioning properly, either tersumbat or there is any leaking I will know it. How? When you car ask for more unnecessary petrols, when the speed won't increase as normal when you hit the speed pedal and when you hear clinging sound or funny sound coming out from the back of your car...

(7) I know when to fill up the tyres air.

(8) I know that gearbox oil, power steering oil and belting need to be change maybe around 1-2 years.

(8) And this one..if you don't know when you need to fuel up your petrol..DON'T DRIVE!!!

That's what I can think of for the moment...I I found this basic essential is required for a girl as you might not get cheated with the mechanics or even your friends. How much do you know? Evaluate yourself :D

Pictures of 1902, SUKHUMVIT and from my windows pane!

Food glorios food@ Sukhumvit!!

THINGS I NOTICED...

This is only a point of view from my observation to people that has been close to me these few months :

* I noticed that Arinsonians really loves STARBUCKS. I thought I was the weird one!
* I noticed that Arinsonians really into FACEBOOKING
* I noticed that Arinsonians really loves having lunch as early as 1130 am
* I noticed that Arinso Office has a lot of cokroaches..baby roaches, mama roaches, papa roaches...we do have em all!!
* I noticed that Arinsonians now are really into Waffles (there's a new stall opens next to Giant)
* I noticed that new hired Arinsonians are a bit sombong. What do I mean by sombong...when I smile, they dun even smile back! There goes my effort..wasted!
* I noticed that some people really don't know how to loosen up and have a break!
* I noticed that some people really relies on manipulating others to be a better person

And this is the part that critics on others :

* I really hate to share the elevator with crowd from the K***A office as they tend to speak loudly in the lifts, they make stupid jokes, they suddenly talks about politics and talk as if they are important to some minister, they smells terrible after lunch!! I mean..hello...tak penah pakai deodoran or beli perfume ke??
* I really hate when seeing people wearing tudung with a see through baju kurung sleeves..I mean come on..what make they feel that this is oK?
* I really hate it when the taxi drives talks crap about how low their fare and how unfair. Hello..NGV? does it rings any bells on how low do you get for gas?
* I really hate it when people says they don't have money as much as I earned! Do they have any ideas how much I earned every month? How much I have to spent for house, cars, loans etc2??
* I really hate it when people complaints about their work..and feels that they are the most worked employee of the year when they go back at 6pm sharp?

And this is where I feel it tickles!

* When people talks to me in Mandarin, Cantonese or even Hokkien...assuming I am Chinese
* When people feel I earned so much that I can buy anything I want!
* When people talks to me about Roger :D
* When I see people runnign for elevators as if that's the last one going up
* When the STARBUCKS baristas downstairs flirting with me and the next thing they know that I'm with someone! SO they really need to cover their ass up so that/hoping that Donat wouldn't noticed it earlier and they really have the funniest face when they are shocked+afraid+guilty!
* Adding my counsellor/ big boss in Facebook as one of my friends!

And things I should do more often :

* Watch more tennis...ASTRO is not showing enuff tennis!!
* Do archery more often, I am not bad for the try as I hit most of my wanted spots!
* BBQ more often...I love preparing the ayam percik marinate sauce and really sooth my workaholic side!
* Organized more frens outing even I am always turned down by people due to time and money as if I am planning a trip to Paris etc.
* Swim! and yes my class will commence this Sat 19th April! watch out dolphins..I am gonna beat your gracefull swimming style :P

And I LOVE it when I have LOST almost 10 kg since august 2007 till now..and planning to loose more and more..sampai kurus kering..ahahaha..no lar..smpai I fit size 27 Levi's jeans!!

IT'S BEEN TOO LONG SINCE...

It's not that people miss my blog...I myself do miss it a lot. And I really can't accept the facts that for the past few months my life only evolved around work..work..work. This is the part where I become workaholic by accident. I really hate to work, but it has to stay as it pays all the bills. Like it or not, I just have to go on working...and keep working.
It's tea break now..and finally I am a bit loose to write a blog. Well, a lot of things happening in my life recently (excluding work). I love the fact that I love BBQ session with friends. And I just realize it when I went to PD with Donat's fren for a mini trip. It was fun. I will elaborate with pictures as words always lie and picture doesn't (I think that's why I look good in pictures rather than real life...the camera is trying to tell people something :P)

Ok..now..I want to talk about food!! Since I am having my yogurt (capuccino flavor..nice)..2 mini tubs of it...so I wont over indulged in something else less healthier than this. I have been to quite a few new places for food...And let me describe a bit on a few that really captures me positively and negatively :

(1) Charms cafe - One Utama between Old and New wing
* I won't go there again since the food is ONLY so-so, not so tasty, not that bad but the price tag for it really pissed me off. You can get way better food in Madam Kwan's or Little Penang with the same or lower price. Not worth the price!!

(2) 1920 Italian Cafe and Bar
* I would recommend people who loves Italian food as much as me to try this place. I went to the Curve brach at level 1 and really loves the food. I went with my sisters and Donat and they all love it. The pasta is nice, baked chicks, bruschetta and garlic bread..all are perfectly cooked. And with the price tag as similar as the CHARMS cafe..I would say this place beats CHARM by 10000 miles!

(3) Marche
* Should I elaborate more? They got 5 star from me! Located at The Curve and having this eye catching 2 cow in red, with suisse flag nobody can ever missed that! (Does it has to do with me liking RF?hahahaha)For those who feel intimidates to enter the place, just ask for a visitor's pass to look around the stalls inside. They cook evrything fresh and the price tag..oh sooo affordable!!

(4) Sukhumvit (name taken from a place in Bangkok)
* A new Thai food stall in the heart of Kg. Baru..decoration sebijik macam The Apartment @ The curve. I mean the tables and chairs and even the layout is kinda like Bali style with happening music in the background. The Tomyam is VERY VERY nice..if you order for 2..u get tomyam with fire :P and the PAD PHIK (not paprik..they cooked paprik differently so I wouldn't suggest that) is VERY NICE!! And the kerabu...SUPERB!! I never left my plate empty everytime I eat here. Price wise? Come on it's Kg Baru...Tom yam is not even RM10...u can get at RM5!!

(5) Madam Lims @ KJ
* Chinese style cooking with a very delicious cusines to choose from. And the price? Very affordable..You can get kuey teow goreng at RM4! Must try!

Thats a few that really leaves an impact to me. If you guys need more info on these places...just leave a comment or text me..I will guide u or even better..bring u over..menyibuk2 :P
Ask me anything about food and I will try to recommend a nice place for you to eat..nyum2...
