Sighs sigh sighs

I noticed that the hair plucking comes back when I'm stressed out. I haven't done so for the longest time since I got the short haircut. In fact I thought that trich can be 'cured' by having short hair, but apparently not.

Need 60k in 1 years time. Any fast money making scheme?

It is a Friday. I think I'll put on some nice makeup and go out. It's the Tiesto weekend but don't think will be going. Maybe tomorrow. Really wanna go before n turns 3. But if he's coming back next year, then not going this year is fine. Otherwise must go, cos I don't want to go see him lugging my kids if he comes back in 5 years time.

Parents meeting parents dinner postponed because everywhere is fully booked as this weekend is mother's day. I haven't gotten anything for mom yet. But the other day got free pink teddy bear from The Ship. A bit cheap la... Dunno what to get for mom la, sighs.

Photoshoot for ASQ Top 10 next week. 5 girls and 5 guys. Rather, 5 guys, 1 'guy' and 4 girls. Shouldn't be a prob.

ASQ

It is now 7 am and I'm dead tired but am just gonna note down some stuff that I do not want to forget.

1. Time and tide wait for no man. Move it move it.

2. I changed my mind about the guy who bugged me at Astro Star Quest. Usually he seemed overly confident and showy, but today he mellowed down a lot from the pressure. He seemed almost depressed. It is now towards the middle of the show. In the earlier recordings, the contestants were happy, all hyped up and singing everywhere all the time. Now that nearly half the contestants have been eliminated they seem somewhat more grounded. Today it was quiet with hardly any singing around backstage. In someways it was almost as if everyone was mourning with sorrow. I guess making new friends, living with them and then having to deal with your friends being eliminated shows you a part of that grown up life, fast forward. I almost felt sorry for them, but am glad that they are more mature and ready for life's challenges now. Somehow Asian reality shows are different from Western ones. The Western reality shows contestants cheer for joy when the others are eliminated. They want to get others eliminated. In Asian reality show they cry when their fellow contestants get eliminated. When they give their goodbye speech they wish others success.

Budget constraints

need to stick to budget need to stick to budget...

BUT I WANT A BATHTUB..... AND SOLID WOODEN FLOOR, AND 6 AIR CONDS...

check out this informative article about Jacuzzi. Yes the Jacuzzi, the Panadol of paracetemol, the Maggi mee of instant noodles..

it's sad when you can only have 3 airconds instead of 6.

:/

I IS BACK

I have not been writing for the longest time. So little time, so much to do!!

For a start, some good news! I got engaged! He proposed in the craziest way, and (being unbiased :P) I really don't think it's easy for other guys to top it. You know what guys are like... competitive and all! But it was the effort put in that really touched me. It was a really nice night, and we had friends celebrating the joyous day with us. I am thinking of throwing an engagement party thingy and invite all our friends, simply because it'll be a nice thing to share this happy news with them, and also to thank friends who also helped so much! The video is crazy ass funny :)

Anyhow, here's a pic taken from Ting's site. She was going around taking lotsa pics with her professional camera haha. Thank you Ting, you know for what :) I look damn tarpao in all the pics but who cares!!! Remember that I fell flat on my ass and back at the end of the night,hee haaaa haaaaa



Aside from getting engaged, I've been pretty busy with the whole house renovation thing. IT. IS. NOT. EASY. TO. GET. A. HOUSE. DONE. Been getting quotes from 3 main contractors, looking at tiles, bla bla, drawing up floor plan. Yes, I actually did up a floorplan by myself using this awesome software called SmartDraw. Available free for 7 days trial, but after that it's like USD200 or something. And being Malaysian... you know la... I think it's past the 7 days trial but I cheated by not closing the window. Yes, it's been many many days since I last shut down my laptop. I just put it on hibernate mode.

Am also working on this new research. Basically about people's TV habits and all. Speaking of TV habits, I've never indulged so much time in the idiot tube (is that what's it's called?) and OMG I just can't tear myself away from all those stupid TVB series on Astro on Demand. It's damn addictive and REALLY I can spend those time doing more productive stuff. Like I actually got webhosting two months back and it's just there doing nothing. I could have used those hours spent watching TVB to migrate to the new webhosting... sighs....

OH, am also doing makeup for this Astro Star Quest previously known as Astro Talent Quest. Those dudes are young!!! Really really young I feel like a jie jie to them. Like we were backstage doing the press conference and this young contestant called out to me 'lenglui' and I just stared back at him and said 'Cass. My name is Cass'. Hahahahah so attitude but it's true what. Those 18 year olds... and me... 27+n. hahahahhahaha

Well, it's all about time management, isn't it. And rship management la. Cos usually when my bf and I discuss stuff about house, we usually got this damn tulan look and tone but till now managed to control it. Only argued once, but after that we went to makan Thai Style Chicken and then everything is okay again.

:) Will post again soon. :)

love technology

Damn technology is wonderful. Am in the car now waiting for the bf to shower and I'm on my iPod now typing this out. Now it doesn't matter anymore how long I have to wait cos I'm leeching of his wifi so I can just surf n surf n surf. Best!! Also love it during sleepless nights cos I can just whip up the iPod n surf while cuddling :) :)

Put on my makeup just now only to realise that my face is full of rashes. Must be the sotong kerang n prawns. Going on detox after tonight. I gotta celebrate the completion of report!

KAOTIM SAI!!!

YES LA I IS KAOTIM THE REPORT OREDI!!!!

TWO BLOODY DAYS STUCKS AT MY LAPTOP!!! so stressed and so difficult to concentrate but finally got it done!!!

the sense of achievement is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo wonderful! will continue with another report of the same study later. doing the whole thing makes me realise how much i loveeeeee doing researches. learn this, learn that. suddenly feel like going deep sea fishing now. i told bb that i cannot possibly live and die without ever going deep sea fishing.

woooootttt

TVB is evil! The Internet is evil! Eating is evil!

Why ah why ah two days oredi I'm trying to complete this report but I still cannot! All the distractions in life! TVB is evil! The Internet is evil!

Two days oredi I makan nasi lemak for breakfast. Tambahhh sotonngg tambahh kerangg!! Now I'm experiencing all this weird rashes from eating too much 'poisonous' food. Bla bla bla kerang is the best!! Eating is evil!!

Okay, must rajin a bit to complete report today cos I wanna go out tonight!! Also because it's due today also la hehe

It's Friday again tomorrow and yay to weekend! Last Friday was like a mini gathering for Shuz before she got hitched forever and ever. It was realllyy crazy catching up with those crazzzzyyy people playing this cool uno like drinking card game called 'Beer' and drinking and smoking. After a while we got tired of the game and just picked a card randomly making drinking rules such as biggest card drinks, red drink, even drink. Fun! Got pissed drunk! Actually the best part is catching up with uni mates that we haven't seen for so long. Different sort of enjoyment. You even laugh a different sort of laughter.



Congrats Shuz. :)

okay now that i'm done writing this maybe i can concentrate on writing the report!!

Another pool tournament coming up.

I love playing pool. I really really love playing pool. I didn't realise that I feel happy playing pool until he suggested that I don't play this time.

There's a tournament coming up in Baywatch soon. I played in the one two years back and we got second place. Not bad for a team full of newbies. I was asked to play again this year. But... he doesn't want me to play this time, because there's a certain someone that he isn't too comfortable with. I understand his point of view so I shall skip this one. Anyways the money prize is not a lot for this one. But I'm thinking, what if the person is there for the Dewar's one as well? Does that mean I will skip that one too?

I have abandoned my cue for too long, and I can't wait to go there and show the people so that they can go waaaaaaaaaaaaaa

So how?

Quality times *sigh*

Why oh why can't I just stop procrastinating... mom's helper (a politically correct way to put it) finally came back from some gorgeous island in Philippines and I've regained my freedom again. So I damn semangat, woke up at 7, had breakfast and watched some tv before setting up my laptop to start those researches. Of course, having been deprived of reckless surfing of the net without caring for the time for so long, I just couldn't stop myself from surfing and surfing and surfing.

So I was online from 9 am to 3 pm *trying* to get a headstart on work and I just couldn't stop reading and surfing about everything to politics to renovation to... god knows what else. Well, am still trying right now... hopefully can start immediately after this...

BTW, since Ruth is back, I have so much time on hand and I can finally spend quality time with the bf!! It's nice cos it's been sometime since we had quality time together. A month? Since she left? Anyhow the day before we had quiet night at home just chatting about everything and drinking brandy. We used to do that very often, sharing the small details of our day or week and I'm glad we had that night. I especially love talking about work, management, strategies, politics, because then we get to debate and see what the other person is really like. FOR EXAMPLE, I'm always the follow the rules sort of person, while he's less so. Bla bla.

Yesterday we went to pasar malam to have his favourite asam laksa. Again, we used to do that a lot but somewhere along the way we just stopped. Eating fried food from sticks, having mata kuching from the plastic bag. I like that. It reminds me of my childhood. In fact, yesterday I told him that I saw a lot of uncles and aunties whom my mom used to buy from. That was at least 15 years ago and today they are still there. In a way I felt a bit of pity for them, but then again, who am I to feel that way because for all I know, they are probably happier than a lot of other corporate ladder climbers or wealthier people.

THEN WE TARPAO FOOD AND WENT BACK TO MAKAN AGAIN WHILE WATCHING WAR OF IN LAWS, THIS TVB SERIES THAT I'VE SEEN AND AM FORCING HIM TO WATCH. I bought the dvd because I want to pass it on to my kids. Like heirloom. Except that it's not so expensive. hehe. There are quite a few DVDS already that I've collected. One of them is this Korean movie, Daisy. THAT SHOW IS SO ROMANTIC I cry everytime I see it. sigh.

Ok. time to start work. tonight got hen's night. btw, i got a haircut. it's really boyish on one side and more feminine on the other. the guy was so enthusiastic about the cut.

helpppp

urm, i think there are ants living in my laptop. how the hell did it get there and HOW DO I GET RID OF IT??!!?
