Rantings, Goss’ps, Complaints, Compliments….

This is the place to be if you have a weird obsession just like mine – Bert from Sesame Street, likes everything Japanese & TVB movie serials, love to travel, eat and not forgetting – bitch!

The world awaits eagerly for the official opening of the 2008 Beijing Olympics at 8pm.  Everyone is in a joyous mood. 

 

Not me.

 

One year ago, a promise was made to be fulfilled today.  A promise that would have changed my life forever.  All is left now is a broken promise and shattered dreams that would never become reality.

 

Although I will resent you for the rest of my life for inflicting this pain upon me, I will have the strength to stand up on my two feet.  Let bygones be bygones.  I will crawl, I will stagger, I will walk, no matter what it takes, I will reach the end of the tunnel where the bright light awaits me…..

 

Road Blocks Again! August 7, 2008

This morning I got an SMS from a reputable source telling me there maybe road blocks in major roads leading to town and be prepared to get stuck in one of those crawls.   Police have also been deployed on most major roads and are to be on 24 hrs standby, I was told.  Shucks..it’s one of those days again where those monkeys are up to their nuisance again!

 

Arrgh…..all because Anwar Ibrahim has been charged with Sodomy ( the SODOMY Part II)!

 

If all these monkeys just put their focus elsewhere and cater more to the suffering of the common folks, we will have a better country to live in.  The share market has plummeted so badly since the March 8th elections, I can’t even be bothered looking anymore.  Don’t even know if there’s anything left of my investments!  One suggestion, resolve the MRR2 problem first la!

 

MONKEYS!!!!!!Bodoh-wi…

 

May DSAI and his family see justice being done….

 

What did Ah Beng say to Ah Lian? August 6, 2008

About two years ago, I dyed my hair.  It was a disaster.  Somehow, the colour came out really blondish.  Hence, came the nickname Ah Lian from DC the Yellow Chimp.  But he ain’t much better, everyday ‘talk loud loud’, recently drives a really ‘vroom vroom’ modified car, wears brown leather shoes…so of course Ah Beng this nick won’t suit anyone better!

 

So what did Ah Beng say to Ah Lian lately when he got his yearly bonus and increment?

 

‘Eh Ah Lian, got my bonus.  Come let’s go for dinner.  I spend.  You like ah Japanese right.  So let’s goto Aoyama la.’  So off went Ah Beng and Ah Lian to Aoyama Japanese Restaurant.  Ah Beng of course only restricted Ah Lian to a bowl of Edamame and Chawan Mushi and 2 glasses of green tea! Muaahahhahaah

 

So what did Ah Lian tell Ah Beng during dinner.  “whoaaa………34 more days till Krabi!’ (which I later realized was a miscalculation). To which Ah Beng replied, I dont care what activities you guys want to do.  I am going to drink my beer on the island hopping trips.  As long as he doesn’t sink while snorkeling, that’s fine with me!

 

And after dinner, Ah Beng graciously offered, ‘Eh need to WALK YOU TO YOUR CAR AH?’ (He must have felt bad after hearing horror stories of my ridiculously awful date and tried to be a gentleman).  Errr, I would have been so touched except for the fact, my car was only a few steps away from his!

 

P/S:  Ah Beng realized that Ah Lian is applying for her PR in Australia and wants to buy a marriage certificate from Ah Lian….for RM3000! Wah….so the ‘cheap’!  Sure cannot laa…..later the migration officers ask some intimate questions! Sure-ly fail!  I only know Ah Beng has a fetish to play with the monkeys from the jungle.

 

The first weekend in August August 4, 2008

just came and went….

 

I had a rather eventful weekend.

 

Tried the newly opened Kenzo fish spa in Mid Valley…

 

Did a lot of housework – never done so much work since I graduated from uni almost 5 yrs ago.  Mopped the whole floor, hand washed all my clothes, ironed all the clothes for 1 1/2 hours which caused me to ‘aeroplane’ 2 buddies for lunch!  Whoa…not bad right!  Iron broke down before even I could use it.  The ironing board slammed on my poor toe… Went to Bangsar Village, got a new iron.

 

 

Found this really cool chill out place in Bangsar, Jalan Bangkung that serves a variety of drinks. 

Whoaa…look how high our Jenga tiles went.  Shaun-not-alcholic was the loser for the night…..tsk tsk can’t even play a proper game without losing!

Two drinks either a Martini or Bellinis for the price of one..only RM25.  We had plenty to drink!

 

And finally…..my new Croc handphone pouch! Cute or not… RM65 for the pouch and RM8.90 each for the accessories……

 

Told you my bad luck isn’t over! August 2, 2008

Haven’t been to yoga for a week cause of my busy work schedule.  Suddenly I read today’s papers and noted that Yogazone has been handed over to a new Management.  Then is my 1 yr membership with 5 free months still valid?  Darn……wasting my time to sort this out now.  And to think I was so glad that my 1 year installment plan would be complete by August!! Urgghh!!!

 

Last night I checked Air Asia for flights to Krabi in September….today I decided to book for us, realized that just with a difference of one night, prices have gone up RM20 bucks per person!  Small figure…but still..that’s less 1 hour massage!  Don’t care la..still book! Just scrooge on the hotel lor!  So the 4 of us (Sean, Hedz, Yellow Chimp DC and me) are offfff to KKRaaabbiii for some beach, booze and island hopping!!!!!!

 

Oyasumi nasai (goodnight) folks! It’s 2 am, and I desperately need my beauty sleep to wake up for a 4km jog round the park tomorrow morning.  From now need to have that perfect bod for the beach (some of you may be laughing yourselves silly while reading this)!!!!!

 

The only consolation to my awful week July 31, 2008

First it was the income tax penalty.

 

Then, a cancelled overseas trip.

 

The laptop I use for work was infected with a virus and seems to affect the performance of my laptop incredibly.  I virtually have to restart every 1/2 hour.

 

Followed by my maid becoming hysterical and fainted yesterday morning all because Mom did not approve her day off.  Rushed her off to the hospital.  Upon doctor (who diagnosed it as ‘faking it’) and the agent’s advice, we have to send her back although her contract only officially expires end of next month.   Which means, this weekend, I have to do my own laundry, ironing, cooking and cleaning. 

 

And it’s only Thursday……

 

The only consolation was I had a orgasmic dinner at Hajime last night, my all time favourite Japanese restaurant on the expense of a friend :)

 

 

Just the 2 of us, we had raw fish with truffle oil, chawan mushi, foie gras maki, almost 7 kinds of sashimi, mini chicken pizza, shake bomb (salmon wrapped with foie gras..an absolute delight), soft shell crab with salmon maki, Wasa Beef (pan fried beef with wasabi), and umeshu jelly.  Yummmmmm…

 

I asked for it… July 29, 2008

Today I got slapped with a penalty from the Inland Revenue Board.  Don’t ask me why also – yes it’smy freaking fault.  RM 446.98.  Never f*** around with these guys.  Damn!  I am so pissed and poor now…

 

Can someone shout me a beer?

 

Soo Jin’s BIG Birthday Celebration July 26, 2008

We had a mini birthday bash for the ‘Horse’ (who’s bday falls on July 28) at WabiSabi in TTDI Plaza last night.  But he wanted me to make it sound like a HUGE celebration, hence the title of the post.  Honoured guests for this ‘zoo’ party include Sue Ann the errr ‘babboon’, Jack the sloth and his missus, Amy, Big Eyed Goldfish KC, DC the Yellow Chimp, Hedz and his girls, myself the fish, and Sam. 

Amy, who’s currently into photography took many many pics with her Nikon.  I’m not gonna post the pictures taken from my Ixus 80 (later embarass myself only!).  These pics are the masterpieces of Amy.

We decided against embarassing him with the cake.  So Jack-O bought him a ‘flaming’.  But our once wild horse has already been pussified domesticated by his missus, had to share the ‘drink’ with his once side kick.

All the macho, macho men…..

Obviously Jack did not want to be outdone by these macho macho men..

Fuiyoh, so ‘gaya’.  I think next year we can nominate Jack for the Women’s Weekly Hunky Husbands!

We  also tried to model…

 

 

 

The Bridesmaid from HELL July 25, 2008

Was chatting to one of my friend’s about her wedding.

 

I’m going to be one of her bridesmaids.

 

We have thought of one (of the many) torture game for the groom and his mates on the ‘pick up bride’ morning.  (Inspiration from the sushi scene from Sex and the City).  Ours is similiar except we will have 10% sashimi and 90% wasabi.

 

An artist impression of how the groom would look topless with the sashimi bits.

 

Every best man would have his share of the sushi.  No need to fight.  Won’t disclose which lucky groom.  Now we won’t want to spoil the surprise right?

 

How awful can your date be? July 24, 2008

What’s the most cheapskate thing he has ever done on a date..siaoyue asks?????

 

a) Made you go dutch (if you’re a girl la..there’s no equality when it comes to such thing right)? 

 

b) Offer to pick you on his bicycle in view of rising petrol costs (Maybe only anttyk would be capable of such things..) or worst, not even offering to pick you or suggesting you take public transport?  But nothing beats, asking you to pick him cause he lives on the way!

 

c) Not buying you dinner and asking you to have a ‘popcorn’ dinner while watching your planned movie date.  His excuse, ‘We’re running late….’

 

d)  Offering to shout dinner, but restricting you to what you can eat.  Again the reason being, ‘I ain’t that hungry’.  But you know for sure that what you’ve/he’s ordered isn’t even enough for a gal going on a diet.

 

e) Conveniently excusing himself to the toilet just when the waiter is about to bring the bill?  Or using the ‘I left my wallet in the car’ excuse???

 

What are your thoughts?
