A missing friend

As I was doing my work, I suddenly thought of a friend whom I have not heard or seen for a long time.

He has always been a nice friend, a person whom we can confide in and I do miss him a lot......but it's sad to note that he might not be feeling the same way towards us cos' he's shutting himself away from us, his friends. How I wish he could call us and tell us that he's ok and he still treats us as his friends......

How sad.........

Splitting Moments

Went for my long overdue haircut at my ever faithful Salon last Saturday afternoon. I used to hair my monthly hair cut at his shop at Sarawak Plaza but after he moved to Satok, I changed my visit to once every 2 months, and that's partly due to cost-cutting exercise too

Anyway, while he was snipping away, I told him that my hair is so dry and he recoomended a treatment which I agreed......then along the way, I told him again that I noticed some split ends and recommended a solution of which, yes, u r right, I agreed again (since he mentioned the magic word "no hassle and not much effort on method of application"). The last thing I want is to spend hours and hours of my time doing my hair....



Right, I finished all the cutting and treatment and brought home a bottle of Wella SP Ends Express Solution (Note for Leggy: SP stands for System Professionals and not what-u-think). I also brought home a slightly lighter purse. I was RM200 poorer that day.

Morale of the story - Never tell your hairdresser your hair problem!!!!!!!!

My books are here!!!!

I ordered 2 craft books from KL and after 2 long weeks of waiting, they have finally arrived yesterday, safe and sound, on my table....

100 Ideas on Cardmaking & Invitations
The Art of Cardmaking


What a great feeling......

Now, my hands are aching from reading the book last night on my bed. Before you laugh, the books are hardcover with 400 pages.....and knowing my size, I should be thankful I did not break my arm.....

A value for money and I am so happy...........

p/s I have made the booking to NZ

Over-enthusiastic me

I have a very short span of concentration and I normally need lots and lots of pushing before I get things done and then halfway I'll stop and a further pushing is needed. People used to say that I'm just like a cow who needs spanking before it is willing to pull a cart...Well, I can't deny that, merely because I'm a cow myself, and No, I'm not a cow because i have breasts that produces milk, but I'm cow cos my chinese zodiac says so. So, those who want to guess my age, by all means but no reward, tq!

I was so very into reading Law after I finished my Accounting that I signed up for a correspondence course. I paid quite a hefty sum of money for enrolment (Hefty as during that time when I was earning peanuts) Anyway, the fire of enthusasism was so great then and after the 1st year, I began to slack and ended up being a loyar buruk instead of a lawyer!

Anyway, my latest obsession was to buy a laptop. I spent endless time searching the website, asking experts around and even call the manufacturer to talk on a bargain. They agreed and I pulled out at the last minute. The one that I was looking at was so good and very reasonably priced too. It even comes with a DVD writer......

Another thing, I have just been given a knock on the head for delaying the booking of airtickets. We have less than 2 months to got for the intended trip and I'm yet to make any bookings and everyone are depending on me....Oh dear! This is going to be my resolution for this week: TO BOOK THE AIRTICKETS

I'm Goldilocks now. I broke into somebody's house, molested the owner's cat and 2 dogs, gave a knock on the owner's daughter's kelisa (and got my hand dirtied, the car is damn dirty) and now, using the owner's computer to update my blog.......The owner should be back anytime now...I'd better erase my fingerprints from things that I have laid my hands on. (Sorry, no time to bathe the dogs and cat) Gotta go now....and pleaseeeeee do not call the police..............

it's my parents' house......hehehehe

New Outlook

I have a problem, and my problem is that I always do something hastily without thinking and then ended up with more problem. Take this look for instance.....I was bored of the no-problem outlook that I decided to change it and now, I don't know how to align the shortcuts at the side of this blog.....

Me and my itchy hands!!

If I Have $10,000.00

What will I do if I have $10,000.00:

1) Go for a round-the-world holiday
2) Buy myself a good Dell Laptop
3) Change my wardrobe
4) Buy more papers, rubber stamps and eyelets
5) Treat my dear ones to the Italian Buffet at Restorante Beccari
6) If Item 1 is beyond the $10k budget: Go back to melbourne for yet another crafts shopping spree
7) After Melbourne, then I'll go to London

Hmm....Guess that's how far my $10k can stretch.......How about u? What will u do if you are suddenly richer by $10,000.00???????

On a more sombre note, today is the 2nd anniversary of Colin's passing. He was a very nice man married to a very nice wife and have raised 3 very nice kids......I'm sure if he's around, he will be more than happy to give me that $10k. He was a very generous man and were never stingy with money. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and may perpetual light shine on him, may he rest in peace..Amen

It's Holy Week now and I'm left with only 2 days to reflect on myself and repent. After 38 days of Lent, I'm yet to do any good deed. I have been feasting day-in day-out (can't blame me tho, just too many birthdays to celebrate, including my own!) Anyway, I think I have started to do good by doing an ironing marathon yesterday. I started at 9.30am and call it quit at 1.30pm with a small burn on my right arm. That's repentence! I bet even those climbers to Mt Singgai did not sweat as much as me....... :-)

Also, I've been getting good news for the past 2 days.....First, somebody from Toyota called last Saturday to officially apologise for the many unpleasant incidents that have incurred for the past montths and our next servicing will be on them; Found a shop in KL selling all sorts of cardmaking materials (Prices are slightly steep but at least I don't have to worry about conversion and postage); and finally, someone is willing to subsidise an airfare to New Zealand for me!!!!!

See, what else can u expect from 2 days?????

Paris Hilton as Mother Teresa????

Just heard the most stupidest (if there's such word) and most humiliating news about an Indian Film Director shortlisting Paris Hilton to play the role of Mother Teresa of Calcutta in his upcoming movie. Is this crazy or what???? He claimed that there are strong resemblance between this 2 women. Hello??????? What kind of resemblance except for the fact that they are both women?

Imagine:
this lady similar to this lady????

GET REAL!

Bored or boring

I'M BORED TO THE VERY CORE

Since I'm bored today, I shall write something mean, sort of cheering myself at the EXPENSE of other people's misfortune...U might noticed the capital letter of EXPENSE cos' somebody just argued with me that it should be EXPENSES! (So, that's No. 1 laugh).

I had a conversation with somebody whom I can't remember claiming that she was boring (which in fact, I think she meant she was bored). So, I just answered "Yes, very boring indeed" and she was so glad that I shared the same feeling as her.....that SHE'S A BORE! HAH!

Also, somebody just showed me a picture that she took of her bruised bum as a result of a fall few days ago.....How I wish I can see her face there and then...Though I pity her but I just couldn't stop imagine how she walked for the past few days..Btw, she has a humongous bum, a fleshy one some more. She's one of my reader and I bet she doesn't dare to reprimand me thru this blog for fear of identity.

Being tall sometimes can be a problem, especially when you are buying a car....somebody actually had to turned down several model of cars just because her long legs couldn't fit in....

Ok, I have had enough laugh liaw......

Of Birthdays and dinners

Today, 2 most important people in my life are celebrating their 55th and 37th birthday respectively. My Mum and My husband..Interesting is it not? We have a interesting pattern as far as birthdays are concerned. U see, my birthday is just 3 days ahead of my dad's and my mum/Aloy's are 2 weeks 1 day after mine. So, U can imagine how much I have indulged as far as food is concerned.

Going to Thai Restaurant tonight for my mum's birthday dinner. As for Aloy's, we went to Restorante Beccari (Merdeka Palace) last night for it's Italian Buffet called a Tribute to their Chefs where they featured all the signature dishes that their past Chefs have created, so to speak. For only RM50++ we were "served" by 5 Chefs....I asked the ever-helpful restaurant manager whether all these 5 chefs were invited to prepare all their dishes of which he laughed and said impossible, since, well, one of them has passed on. The ever famous Chef Vittorio.....I learnt to love italian food from him (but of course, I love the Italian food even more, the more authentic ones after my trip to Italy) This promotion doesn't last long, mind you....It will only be held on all Sundays in the month of April. I did not manage to take any photos cos I don't want to be misunderstood for a reporter of which, coincidentally, there was a whole long table at the back consisted of several hungry-stricken reporters. I bet it's a free dinner for them to ensure that they'll go back to their respective newspapers and write a good review about the promotion. Honestly, they don't have to pay me to write a good review about the food.

Anyway, love the food, love the ever-helpful staff especially that long haired Restaurant Manager (cudn't remember his name though) who took some time to explaining to us about all the 5 past Chefs, love the price and most of all, I LOVE THE TOILET!!!!! It's so huge and spacious u can actually do a Cha-Cha inside...Alone, of course.....

Mama-Mia!

Happy Birthday to my 2 Dahlings!!!
