Say Hi guys!

HI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what I have been doing over the week

I have been soooooo busy over the past few days that I hardly got time to really sit down and enjoy my lonely and quiet birthday...but thanks to some of you who 'accompanied' me over the eve and my birthday.

Cute or not this card? It's from the mad sweet lokter....just in case if you forgot to use your specs while reading my blog, the lil black and white creatures are moo moo......the card is dated 7 Mar but it reached me only on 22 Mar (or rather that's the date I received lah). I suspect one of the main reason cud be that lokter, cos she wrote inside the card that she love this card so much to the extent of having second thoughts about mailing it.........bet she has to quickly sign off and get ah boy to help her post or else she will change her mind and keep it instead...... another reason is that all the cows went to the surprise birthday party first before dropping at my doorstep!

Just came back from KL 2 days ago after a 3-day training at Park Royal. On the 2nd day of our training, we were brought to a site visit at Berjaya Times Square Cosmo World and were given free rides, starting with the mildest of all mild train ride, after which came the roller coaster. I was a bit sceptical about the roller coaster mainly because I am terrified of it and have never get to gather enough courage to sit in one. I did a quick thinking and eventually thought that I should do something out of the ordinary on my birthday eve and boy, I regretted over the decision. Came out feeling so drowsy the whole evening and got myself a nasty bruise on my thigh from the shake! LOL....We were 'invited' to try on the DNA mixer which obviously no one is interested after the roller coaster....

I was sitting at where the white circle is.....That's not the picture that we took lah....Can't bring up our cameras or any other belongings for that matter. Pix courtesy of Berjaya Times Square website

Anyway, the whole adventure was fun and would mind to go back to the theme park but definitely not for the roller coaster anymore...


Oh, I will not be doing justice to the hotel staff at the concierge if I did not talk about a certain helpful staff by the name of Viji. The night before I fly back, I experienced the greatest horror in the life of a shopaholic - My bag is too small for my purchases. It was 12 midnite and there is no way I can go out and get myself another bag. You must be wondering why don't I just buy the next day? Thought of that but I don't have any free period for me to sneak out and buy. So, early the next morning, I went down to the concierge and asked Viji whether he can spare me a box and he quickly replied that he will send one up to my room...Lunch, I went to my room to do a final packing and check out and was I impressed with his service. There, in my room, lies the box and a masking tape and a cotton twine. There, he actually took the extra mile to deliver the tape and string knowing very well I would need them! Kudos to Viji!


The room is fantastic and nicely kept.....and every evening, there will be 2 bars of chocolates on my bed...

The choc box

The inside..Choc says Good Night boh....so I can only eat before I go to bed....how to brush teeth like dat??

My lonely birthday celebration:
Birthday Eve dinner at 11pm
from left, clockwise: Secret recipe's cordon bleu; SR's salad and fries; Starbucks cajun chicken dome.

And Starbucks green tea something something (complimentary from Starbucks since I have a free coupon...:-) Honestly, I am impressed with starbukcs' services and the staff are superb! Kudos to the starbucks kiosk at BB....




Birthday dinner at KLIA Burger King...ahhhhhhhhhhhh finally



Wow! Guess this is the first time I post with more pixs than sentences! Anyway, though a lonely birthday in a hotel all by myself singing "all by myself" and reminding me of Bridget Jones, I am touched with all the never ending calls and messages from friends and families. Love you all, people! Muah!

A True Story

Story telling time

Once, there was this lil girl who started work in an internationally well knowned non-governmental office and there she was surrounded by several huge (literally!) colleagues. Amongst all the many new faces she met, there was this very tall and pretty lady who treated her so well that in no time, they were the best office buddies and was labelled one tall and one short amongst the 'villagers' of the sorrounding areas

Years passed and soon there were forced to go their separate ways due to retrenchment and in no time they were united again in another company...but a short one, I must say....nevertheless, they kept in touch, both physically and spiritually. Never a time passed without one of them buying gifts for the other whenever they go holiday or during birthdays or christmas.

Day gone, night came............10 years has passed and that pretty and tall lady still remains the best of the best friend this lil girl can ever wished....

Today, early in the morning, this lil girl received a call claiming that there's a delivery for her. She briskily made her way to the reception and noticed a bouquet and a cake with her name on it. Suprised, she asked the delivery boy who the sender was....nothing was written and there was this speculation that it could be a secret admirer. Excitedly, she signed off the acknowledgment slip and start flipping the bouquet for an identification........

It's a birthday gifts from the tall and pretty lady to the lil girl.....

See what else came with the card

So readers, who says girl's best friend is only diamond and men's the dog??? My best friend has always been and will always be this tall and pretty lady whom God sent me 10 years ago

Thanks D! Btw, the cake is so yummy and soft, just like you!!!

All-in-One Post

Be prepared for a short but cramped post today cos I am really so bitchy busy that I don't even have time to breathe. Have been working through the weekends and there are still plenty of works awaiting my completion. Sigh...and to add more sugar to the coffee, I'm flying off this Sunday and will only be back 1 hr before my birthday ends... *hint* *hint*

Anyways, I have been pestered/harrassed/forced/persuaded by lokter to complete the tag that Pink Cotton has tagged me after she was pestered/harrassed/forced/persuaded by lokter...She really want to know how I look like when I was still a cute lil baby woh....in addition to what lokter and I was chatting yesterday, she asked whether I got colour photo or not then.....Harlow!! mana ada....U think I am as young as Pink Cotton and the gang ah?? Dahlah Lokter labeled me as a dinosaur...My era mana ada? Even if ada also people paint the black and white photo by using colour pencils wan.....

Ok, be prepared for the most shocking photo of the year















Cute mou? Hahahahaah....Notice my elvis presley punya hairstyle??? Ok, enough liaw....no more laughing *wipe tears from laughing too much*

I noticed the following message in one of the bank's internet website about their upgrading shutdown.....I couldn't help laughing at the most common error of the era.....the bank seemed 'pleased' in causing inconvenience to their customers..........Read on

NOTICE OF SYSTEM UPGRADE
We are pleased to announce that we will be upgrading our existing banking system on 17 March 2007. In view of this, we wish to inform all our customers that our Branches, Automated Teller Machines (ATMs), Cash Deposit Machines (CDMs), Internet Banking, Cash Management and PhoneBanking services will not be made available from 12.00 noon on 17 March 2007 (Saturday) to 9.00 a.m on 18 March 2007 (Sunday).

In addition to this pleasing the customers, I remembered McD's notice about the unavailability of their curly fries.....the notice sounded like this "We are pleased to inform our customers that we are running out of curly fries due to delay in the port" Cruel right? Taking pleasure in causing inconvenience to customers!!

Finally, can any smart chics or dudes out there give me the most fastest, shortest, easy and cost saving mode of travelling from Bukit Bintang to the Curve Mutiara Damansara????

Oh and one more thing....in case I did not blog between now and 21st, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EDWIN (if he is reading this) and WE MISS YOU! PLEASE COME BACK

(hahaha...sound so like missing person notice)

Why I Blog?

This Lokter tidak habis habis want to tag me wan...It's either her or Ah Boy!! manyak pening ah like that..

Anyway, You all want to know why I blog ah??? 5 reasons some more ah? I actually started my blog for ONE and only ONE reason only....but along the way, I picked up several reasons lah....

My ONE and FIRST reason has a story wan and sure will drive you all to tears....For those cry babies, please leave this blog now, do not continue....for those who insisted on carrying on, please get ready a tissue or hanky or your friend/colleague's sleeves

A very very old dear friend introduced me to the wonderful world of blogging.

I officially launched my blog on 7 July 2005 after much pester from him. Prior to that, I know nuts about blogging...as a matter of fact, I actually despise bloggers cos I thought bloggers are people who likes to show off and also sex maniacs and desperados (hehehehe) ...thanks to him, I was brought out from this shallow thinking and now, after almost 2 years of blogging, I am really thankful to him for this.....Sad to say, I can never thank him in person, neither can I thank him through this blog (unless he is still reading my blog from somewhere else).

After my blog was up, in order to fulfil the tradition of blogging, he and I pestered another dear friend to start her blog which she did but only for a while.....Anyway, to cut a long story short, he did not fulfil his promises to keep in touch with us through the world of blog cos he left us without a word.....and despite our frantic search and fervent prayers for him to come back, sad to say we have lost him in a world of his own...

He will always remained a special person in our hearts and we hope he does the same for us too.....Every year, as my birthday approaches, I have this sad feeling deep inside me thinking about his wherebeings, his whereabouts. Why my birthday u asked? Cos dear readers, we share the same birthday....

It was a very demoralising moment for all of us then and I have thought of quitting blogging cos then he and another friend were the only readers. But then again, why should I act that way since it was never our fault that we lost contact with him....furthermore, I still have another dear friend as my loyal reader! I did not quit, obviously, thus this blog today.

Entering the 2nd to the 5th reason why I blog......
I love talking and since I can't talk so much, I might as well write.....and I love making friends and today, I have a circle (not a big one) of bloggers whose company I enjoys so very much and yes, I am talking about you all.............

Oh, also, I like the idea of secretly searching for some bloggers and ended up knowing that person in real life....

Chinese Character Needed

Hi people!! I need help form those who are conversant in Mandarin....I've been offered another cardmaking project and this time it's a birthday invitation cards and I am looking for a nice chinese character for the meaning Longevity..I understand it is pronounced as "shou".

Tried google search as last resort (Some wise girl's solution to any search....ie, locked door = search google; free fonts = search google)...anyway...I did that and i found thousands of different characters representing that word and I am now lost as to which one is the correct character

Glad if you could email me the nicest artistic character of that word as I need to have it stampmade.

I am really ashamed of myself...I am a chinese by birth but I know nuts about the chinese characters....I don't even know how to write my own name in chinese.

Happy chap goh may people (15 mins to an end).

Crap blog

I know, I know.....have not been updating my blog for the past weeks....Reason: One word L-A-Z-Y

Anyway, nothing much happened over the holidays except eating and eating and eating.....I think I have put on a bit of weight despite the claims from other people that I am suffering from bulimia....Oh talking about bulimia, we watched a VCD brought back by brother bear entitled Zoolander starring Ben Stiller and many other famous actors and actresses....heard the movie is banned in malaysia cos the movie features an assasination plan on the prime minister of malaysia.....the funny part is: the supposedly prime minister of malaysia was featured as a chinese apek who speaks only chinese!!!! Either the producer know nuts about malaysia or they are changing the script so as not to offend malaysia....nevertheless, malaysia is offended, thus the ban..

A very funny and dumb movie and with Ben stiller as the main actor, you can be assured of an endless laughter. Catch the trailer here

Btw, Owen Wilson pronounced malaysia as macronesia!! and Ben stiller thought a bulimic is a person who can read minds! LOL

Had my first ever blog meet last Saturday, and the person is none other than the lokter....We had lunch at Elephant and as usual, lokter is engrossed with her phototaking session...A nice person she is!

Talking about forced and unconsented decision

Yeah, I know, I said yesterday that I shall not be blogging until after CNy but ok, I lie..Sue me lah.... hehehe...

I blogged because I initially has something very gruesome and scary to tell you guys but while logging in to my blogspot, I was forced to upgrade to beta or else I am not allowed to continue. There you have it, talking about freedom of speech, freedom of action blah blah blah.......

So, now I am officially and unwillingly part of the beta.

Ok, back to my original initial blog. Check out one gruesome find. I can't elaborate more cos it is still under investigation. By right, I'm not even suppose to post up the pix but since I luvvvvvvvv you all so much, I decided to go against the law for once and post up this pix. In return, I need you all to keep quiet and not copy this pix and use it as a threat against me. It was really unintentional in my part to have that pix taken. I was thrown basically at the crime scene at the wrong time and am now being made the witness...Sigh...there are just too many happenings lately and this is definitely an avoidable case.

The keeper of the subject has been detained for query and I really hope she can proof her innocence otherwise it will be curry rice for her in jail over the cny holidays...

Here goes

See the gruesome find? HAHAHAHAHAHA. Btw, just in case if there is a SSPCA volunteer reading my blog, no worries, it is still alive when we let it go....a naughty lizard somemore....When I tried to take a close look at it, to check whether it is still alive, it actually stick out its tongue and kobek me!!

KONG HEI FATT CHOY everyone!!

All in a day's leave

I'm anticpating this to be my last post before the CNY, so I'm gonna stuff everything under this one post, so be prepared for a long one. (Caution: For those who hasn't sleep for days, please leave this blog cos u sure to fall asleep along the way) Guess this clause applied to me too...have not been sleeping enough for the past few days prior to V-Day, rushing the cards order and all that...

I took a day's off yesterday to do what I should be doing. Together with my agent, we made 2 wives (not ours, of course) happy by helping their husbands to deliver v day's card and gift to them while the husbands were on travelling. Went to the office of one's wife and the wife was so touched that she blushed and was speechless but thanks to her stupid asshole sourgrape sure a spinster colleague who made such an unflattering comment when she saw the bag. She said" Aiyer, why your husband send gift and not bouquet of flowers wan?? See, see, what's inside?" I was so tempted to stop at her desk and stuff my high heels into her mouth but decided not to considering that I was wearing my sembonia heels and I don't have any spare heels in my car.

That done, we went to have laksa and then shop for clothes. Bought myself 2 very sinful but nice black dress from Inner Secret Boutique. Went home, showed A and he said "Another Lau Foo Tze's wardrobe" (Note: My whole wardrobe is full of black attires and nothing else...no other colours, so the label Lau foo Tze came about)....:-)

We skipped lunch, continue shopping at Urban & Co, U2, G2000 and Hush Puppies....

Afternoon gone, evening came.
Drove to damai beach Resort for our V-Day buffet dinner.....Despite the thousand s of choices of food laid in front of me, I chose to have only 5 major items - oysters, mussels, salmon, prawns and keropok.....had just a small plate of pasta and a piece of cake, that's it....

I know it is unhealthy and sinful but I think I have so much oysters that I dreamt I was Spongebob Squarepants last nite! mms-ed the pix to someone and I bet she was like drooling on her handphone!!!

Shucks! Can't seem to download the 3rd and 4th pixs.....

Btw, I'm lying....doesn't seem such a long post afterall

WISHING YOU ALL A HAPPY AND BLESSED LUNAR NEW YEAR!!! GONG XI FA CAI

2007 Valentine's Day Cards Collection

Check out the result of my sleepless nites....... (Those dirty minded people, please refrain yourself from making any assumption....:-)

Thanks to my newly appointed marketing agent, Malau, I have now (as at 1055 hrs today, after only 3 hours of launch) 5 cards reserved! Yippee!!!

Muah to Malau

I still accept orders though (between now and Monday for Kuching and now and this evening for outside Kuching). Note that there is only 2 cards per design cos I don't want to end up like any other brands (not Memory Lane definitely cos they don't have more than 5 per designs if I'm not wrong) that produces hundreds and hundreds of cards of the same design.

Tag

I actually intend to do the tag that Oh Ah Boy so kindly tagged me despite my busy schedule but since he said sorry first with that pathetic droopy eyes, I cannot say no....Also, at the same time I have been pestered by people to post the pix of my done hair.....so, in order not to dissapoint everyone, I'm killing 2 ants with 1 feet (cannot kill birds, so change it to ants)

Ok, this is a photo of me taken after 5 hours of ordeal at the hair salon......

So silky and smooth...I like......My Boss gave me a very funny look this morning! hahaha

Special note to a certain somebody: DON'T CALL ME MOMOK

Ok, let's do the 5 Things U All Dunno About papercrazy tag thingy.

1) Despite my coldhearted, hardheaded stubborn like ass character, I am a very emotional creature. I can cry over some silly sad movies, I can cry over some sad stories and I can cry for no apparent reasons at times....

2) I'm happy doing things for others than for myself....It gives me pressure pleasure and contentment to see people's happy faces over things that I did for them.

3) I am a depressed person. Sorry, no elaboration

4) I find solace in doing cards and I can forego my sleep, my R&R over cards (that's what I've been doing lately....guess that answers the long cough and flu thingy)

5) I am a loyal friend and confidant.

There you have it, Ah Boy!

Btw, can anyone give me the office address of Esquire Kitchen??

What a busy bee

hello people......sorry for the long silence in posting up new post....I am so busy both in the office and my home office (waiseh, sound so canggih like dat). Usually beginning of the year is a busy time for me, have to check through all the accounts and alter accounts sign off before submitting them to audit and of course this year with my new work scope in the new project, I have an extra work to complete. As for home office lei, I have just finished the last batch of my CNY cards and just yesterday, I received a call from my 'Agent' that I have to speed up my samples of Valentine's Day cards...Oh Ah Boy!

Have not been pweety well myself for the past 4 days....Coughing, runny nose and terrible headache and fever....With CNY around the corner, everyone has been avoiding me like as if I am a prostitute in the new testament; a leper in the old testament and plague during Phaoroh's reign....Don't blame them especially those with kids....(This is a good time to take a breather for not having any kids to worry..) Just this morning, I got a call from my staff asking for emergency leave as both his sons are running on high fever....sigh

Anyway, despite all these busy busy schedule, I'm taking a half day leave this afternoon to do this:

1) To attend a funeral mass for somebody's grandpa
2) To go for a 3-hour torturing session at the salon to have my hair straighten. yeah, still contemplating whether to colour or not....
3) Then to Crowne Square to shop for CNY dresses if time permits
4) Go home and start doing my valentine's day cards

I'll try and take a pix of my done hair tonite and if you all behave well and me in good mood, i might post it up tomorrow...

WATCH THIS SPACE!!

Another Calendar issue

I wonder why I've been getting calendars after calendars this year....Perhaps people are trying to tell me to be more organised in planning my dates thus the calendars but hoh, the calendars that I received doesn't seem to fit me...Read on

After featuring my 1st calendar, everybody started to drool and wah and and ooh about the sexy girls. I attracted the guys when I featured this calendar and now I can aussure you, all the little little skipping girls and boys will sure beg me for this...

This is a Disney Cartoons Calendar, interesting looking but I still prefer the earlier 2 years edition..

It's a wall mounted calendar and on every page, you will get a picture of your "favourite" disney channels character ....

Ok, like the earlier HBO calendar, this is also comes with a full page of stickers for you to stick reminders but unlike the HBO's wording of boys nite out blah blah blah, this contents school holidays, test, don't forget blah blah.....So schoolkiddy rite??

Now, you know why I said earlier I don't seem to get the correct calendars?? The earlier one is too macho for me and this??

Ok, there are 12 disney character featured on each page of the month...Lilo & Stitich; American Dragon Jake Long; That's so raven; The emperor's new school; High school musical; Hannah Montana; Kim Possible; The Suite life of Zack & Cody; Cory in the House; Jump In; The Cheetah Girls and The Replacements

This is so embarassing but the only character/movie I recognised from the list of 12 is Lilo & Stitch....What happened to the old good days of Mickey mouse, donald duck, goofy and the rest???

I've finally accept the fact that I belonged to the older generations...Ok, boys and girls, if you would excuse me, aunty needs to sleep now....

So, how many you recognise??

Guylian Chocolates

I'm sure you have heard of the ever famous Guylian Chocolates? It's one of the famous Belgian chocolates in the world and guess what's their specialty? Sea Shells chocs....


Anyway, I've never seen how fine the workmanship is until I received a box of their chocolates from a friend (can't remember where he bought it though cos it has been in the fridge since God knows when but it's definitely not pass its expiry)

Since I've got nothing better to do last nite and also was a bit hungry, I decided to raid the fridge and opened up the wrapper.

Apart from the taste which is heaven, you would also admire how real the shells look like.....I took one clam shaped choc and I nearly peel open the lid like what I did with a real clam...It was so finely done that I even noticed some mud look-a-like on the clam....

Boring and Meaningless blog

Gotta post something or else you might think I've died of exhaustion from doing cards etc....but seriously, I can't think of anything exciting to blog cos nothing exciting happened of late (obviously!) but like I've said, I need to make my presence before people starts to circulate rumour that I've died of exhaustion or boredom.

Let's start with what happened in our hometown here.

Today's paper reported that a 23 yeard old unimas student died after been struck by lightning. Sad case isn't it? So young and such a tragic death. I'm sure the parents must be so devastated. Who could imagine this kind of death???

Then, the 5-month-old baby that was blown from her house during a strong wind is yet to regain consciousness.

and many many more sad happenings....Get a copy of the newspaper and read.

Enough said....check out this desktop calendar that was given to me.

Compliments from HBO. Yupe....HBO as in Home Box Office as in Channel ?? of Astro (Channel 40 izzit??) no Play play ah. Don't bother to ask who I stole it from gave me cos that person can't give you anymore.

If you have been a devout follower of HBO channel, you would know that this calendar is themed Entourage, which is a new soap series for this year. I don't know what this series is about but I think it's something like Friends and you get to see beautiful and sexy human beings...and obviously lots of censors too..

Let's move on.....

Yeah, layout is just like any normal desktop calendar...but you do get pictures of various stars of this series with their names and so-called tips. They are featuring Vince in January page with a tip that says " Never work too hard to get a girl's attention" and then a practical tip that says " Always bring a pen with you to take her number down"

Ok, the back of the page has even more interesting feature.....are u ready?? Men and boys, please do not drool...

......................

......................

.....................

That's the other side of the page. What do you think??? I'm a bit concern about putting it on my table now....cos definitely the month page will be facing me and that means this picture will be facing the other side (and my other side is facing my room's door....Anyone who walks in to my room will see this picture....and my boss walks to my room!!!)

Anyway, there's a sticker with words like birthday, public holiday, day off, blah blah blah page at the back of the calendar. U can peel and stick them on any dates....what astonished me is this particular sticker...

BOYS NIGHT OUT!!!!

I tried searching for Girls night out sticker but couldn't find it......Something fishy eh??? After much much thoughts, I've finally got the answer...This desktop calendar is meant for Men only....(So sexist!)

Anyway, boys out there, don't bother to ask me for it cos I'm not giving away....Sekian, terima kasih!

oh, a final parting note.....I noticed a very nice number of my car's mileage counter....Very seldom one can capture this number eh??

How many of you manage to capture the tens of thousand??

Food Review

We went and check out a new eatery after it was featured in the local weekend paper. I wouldn't want to rate the place cos it's a far cry to what a decent fine dining place should be..

The only thing I'm slightly impressed about SAHARA is the slightly big portion of its bbq spare ribs, that's all...I was slightly agitated with the way they served the food.....we ordered soup, salad and of course main course; all these came in this manner - Salad, main course, soup (and the soup was served together with the main course only after I pointed out to the waitress that soup should be served first!)

You can forget about getting a freshly blended juice cos all the drinks are packed drinks. Though you get to see the beautifully lit wine bar with lots and lots of wine displays, but if you really look carefully, all the wine bottles are actually empty bottles! With all fairness, the only liquor that I spotted was a bottle of chivas and vodka.

Menu is printed on an A3 laminated card. When they brought over the menu, I was like Wow! there must be variety of dishes...Don't be misled cos the choices of food is no more than 10 including entree and main course...They enlarged the font so huge even a 90-year old lady with glaucoma can read the menu!!!

Ok, enough saying....let's look at the food.

Chicken Salad....It's either this or potato salad...no other choice...

BBQ spare ribs....Presentation sux but tasted ok

Hmm.....A total flunk for a cordon bleu. They are using pork instead of chicken...You don't get to see the cheese woozing out like what I had at Secret Recipe.....No other cordon bleu can beat the one at SR....I'm a diehard fan of cordon bleu and no one else has actually impress me with their creation except SR....Any recommendations for a competitor of SR??

I've decided not to take the pix of the soup cos it's ugly and btw, you only get to have potato soup nia.....

Bad Luck comes in 3s???

I've heard of good luck comes in threes but have you heard about bad luck too?? I seriously hope it's also three and no more!!! I have had enough shares of bad luck the past few days

Bad luck No 1
My 1 year 1 month old (warranty finished a month ago) Sony handy drive died on me....Of all days, it chose to kick the bucket on Saturday, a day after I stored all my chinese new year cards design!!!! Thank God for my quick designing skills, I managed to do up the cards (and only got to sleep at 2am on Sunday)
I'm so poor this month I can't even afford a new pendrive and Santa pitied me so much (also I've been such a good girl last year) he decided to give me an additional belated christmas present.

A pendrive pendrive (obviously!!)

Bad luck No 2
My 3 year old MMC card for my handphone suddenly corrupted last nite (Please don't report to Anti-Corruption ok?. I bribe u??) and I have no choice but to re-format the whole card and yes, u got it. All my precious photos, games, tones, musics shit shit shit that was stored in the mmc gone with the wind......and I have just achieved a very very top mark in Boulder Dash!!! Bladdy shit! I feel like crying last nite and this time, Santa didn't help me liaw....Santa must have been so scared of me that he quickly went back to North Pole.

{Updated} Boohooohooohoo.....I just found out that my re-formated MMC card can't be used anymore. I took a pix and when I try transfering it to my pc, the file went blank and a message appeared saying that my pix is not recognised!

Bad luck No 3 & 3 1/2
I combined 2 into No 3 cos it's no so bad but hey, it's still a misfortune to me.
No 3:
I couldn't find a suitable envelope for one of my nicest chinese new year card.....A asked me to change the size to fit into my existing envelope but i might not look good anymore......I'll give a big soapy kiss to the one who can find me a pink coloured 5.85" x 5.85" envelope!!! (It will be bad luck No 4 if you refuse to find me one just to avoid my big soapy kiss)
No 3 1/2:
My favourite Pilot ink pen went missing

Well, if that's not enough bad luck, I don't know what is!! So, if you would excuse me, I would like to go to my favourite mouse hole and sulk the day away.

btw, is broke like a church mouse also a bad luck????
