dry weekend...

You wouldn't believe it, but this weekend was a dry one for me. Not a single drop of alcohol. Best part is it felt good. Real good. I guess alot has to do with the company. Hehe. But seriously it was nice not to drink. Sigh. Sadly this weekend looks like a wet one. Hopefully won't go overboard like usual. Need more dry events. Miss the days whereby we just hang out in mamak stalls or cafes. Sipping tea or fruit juices or just pigging out on good food.

I know this post and a few others below make me sound like an alcoholic, but trust me I'm not. And NO I'm not in DENIAL! Just that when I socially drink it can get a lil' too much. Am sure those that drink know what I mean. Plus sometimes its nice to drink to numb the mind. If ya get what I mean. ;)

need to stop!

Sigh. I have started to drink again. Need to find a way to stop. I can't help it cos it helps me relax and forget things. Although sadly only for a short moment. Hate the after effects the next morning especially with a screwed up stomach like mine. Arrrggghhh.

Any therapies out there to divert my need to drink?? I don't smoke and will never so please don't say that helps! Unless I start eating. Sigh. Then I'll gain back the few kilos I tried so hard to loose. Damn there doesn't seem to be a win win situation! =(

gong xi gong xi...

To all that celebrate this festive occasion...

Happy Chinese New Year!

Kong Hei Fatt Choy!

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

happy valentines!

To everyone out there. Even if you are not celebrating or bothered about it. Happy Valentines Day! Hope everything goes through smoothly for those that has something planned. To those that might not get their way, the effort itself is good enuff. =)

Cheeers...

music to my ears...

Music has got to be the best art form known to man. Well for me at least. It has been a moving part of my life and will be am sure till I finally knock off. Makes me smile, cry, laugh, reminisce and all sorts of other feelings. Its the best companion. Being in the shitty mood that I am in now, I had no other avenues to turn to except for music.

Below are what, at the moment, soothes my heart and mind.

1. Rise and Fall - Craig David ft. Sting
2. Heard Em' Say - Kanye West ft. Adam Levine
3. I Try - Macy Gray
4. Changes - 2Pac
5. Work It Out - Jurassic Five ft. Dave Matthews
6. New Day - Indus Creed
7. Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol
8. The Light - Common

Nothing like a drive or walk with music at hand. Really does wonders. Albeit sometimes only for a short while but then again when you are feeling crappy, a moment of bliss is a blessing isn't it. ;)

Alrighty then, back to my music...

why??

Sigh. I told myself not to hope too much. Take it one day at a time. Sadly it was easier said than done. Just being myself I couldn't control my emotions and still gave it my all.

Sadly, the wind just stopped blowing...

Wish I could go somewhere far. Just by myself. Wallow in self-pity.

heroes...

Am sure most of you have already seen the first episode of Heroes on Star World. Some of you (like me) might be as up-to-date with US (episode 14). When I first saw the series, it immediately reminded me of when X-Files came out back in 1993. The same excitement and curiousity to keep following and counting the days for the next episode to come out. Although I gotta admit this is much better as the series follows along with each episode. Plus with the advancement of technology it comes out more realistic and dramatic.

It got me thinking. What powers would you choose if you were given the choice? Mind reading, invisibility, physical strength, flight and god knows how many others out there. Yes yes I know its all fantasy but indulge me for a minute will ya. After giving it some thought, I would most probably choose teleportation. Now only one person really knows why ;) but for the rest of you, just imagine having the capability to be wherever and whenever you want with a blink of an eye. Now wouldn't that be something cool. Although rather illegal cos you can get into anywhere without paying for it. Hehe. All the free movies and concerts or even robbing banks. LOL. But then again most powers aren't really socially friendly. Theres always something you can do with it thats illegal. So screw that.

Anyhoo. Didn't know what to post so just thought of this. Will give up now and get back to work. Cheerio...

emotions...

It sucks to be a Cancerian. All the emotional issues and lack of control. The brooding and thinking and worrying. Sigh. Sometimes wished I was a cold hearted bastard. Might be happier in life. Being selfish helps as well. After all its a dog eat dog world right.

Sigh...

damn you henry!

Arrrgghh. How can this be?!

Damn you Henry and your last minute goal!!!!!!!!!

sigh...

Had to make a difficult decision today. Have a feeling am gonna live to regret it. Sigh...

an outlet to vent...

Have you ever felt the need to have someone around to pour everything out? I mean I know we have our parents, friends, gfs/bfs and spouses. What I mean is someone really close yet not attached, who is neutral, won't judge and will just listen (and advise if needed). This of course, in my opinion at least, is a luxury to most. Think a lot of people wish they had such a person, yet its not something easy to come by, considering you would need to let your guard down. And I am not talking about a best friend. Everyone has best friends (some a lil too many, hehe). I feel this is much deeper than that.

Anyways I was lucky to have a few close friends of this nature. Sadly our lives moved on and most of them are now overseas or busy. I am at a point in my life I do not have anyone of this sort close by. Close enuff I can just take a drive and have a drink with them. Worse still is I am at a point I really need em'. Sigh. Plus being a stupid Cancerian doesn't help with all the thinking and wondering. I have to be thankful though that I have someone in my life now and I have stopped the habit of brooding because of her. And I know it hurts her (and me) that I can't vent to her. Sigh.

who do i look like?

Hybernating Bear came across an interesting application that compares ya faces with celebrities and come up with some matches. We were messing about and here are my results. Used 2 different pictures, with and without shades. Hehe...

2007 resolutions...

Ok think its time to come up with some resolutions for this year. Some goals to aspire to. Was happy to have accomplished about 67% of it last year so hopefully will be able to do the same this time around. Lets see...

1. Buy a house (really need to get one this year!)
2. Go for a beach holiday (preferably a long one)
3. Lose more weight (still wanna reach my goal of 76kgs)
4. Get a better job (work is getting too routine plus i need more money!)

Hmm think that should do it. Don't need too many after all. Gotta stay focused. Wish me luck folks! =)

first post for 2007...

Wow time surely flies. Its already 2007. Before you know it I'll be 28 years old. Hope all of you had a blast ushering in the new year. Wish all of you a good year ahead and hope all ya resolutions come true or close to it at least. I haven't thought of any yet, been procrastinating. Hehe.

Well just wanted to have a post on the first day of 2007. Don't really have much to add. Hehe. Rather lazy really. LOL. Gonna catch the MU vs. Newcastle game in a bit. Goodnight folks!

rm25 fried sotong?!

Arrgghh. Just got back from one of the most expensive yet worse mamak dinner ever. We were at Pelita, Bangsar. As usual had the nasi kandar with my all time favourite fried squid. I know it was suicide just ordering it cos the highest I've seen listed is RM14 just for the squid. I was ready to pay that amount cos I had to satisfy my cravings. But can you guess how much freaking Pelita charged me? And I'm talking about say a 6 inch piece of squid here. Fucking RM25 just for the squid. OMG. I asked the waiter and he says its normal. Told him why not list the damn price so people don't get a heart attack and he had the cheek to tell me that I should have asked. RM25 for a 6 inch piece of friend squid. Freaking a! Dammit. After bitching for a bit he went to speak to his boss and came back. Gave me a RM5 discount. LOL. RM20 is still fucking too much. The damn squid didn't even taste good. Arrgghh. I'm never heading back to Pelita again. Damn highway robbery!

how perfect is my life??

Check it out. According to some website (link below). My life is 81% perfect. Hehe. Hmmm wonder if that is even true. I'm whining about my job, need a salary increment and almost always complain about not having enuff time on my hands. Oh and not to forget the need to have a better car, my own house, to travel. Sigh. Then again, I got most of the things I want in life and I do have a reasonably satisfying job with good pay. Hmm maybe I'm just a whiny bitch. LOL.

Your Life is 81% Perfect

You truly have the perfect life. And you probably feel like the luckiest person in the world. You have a great career, family, and personal life. You have it going on!

How Perfect is Your Life?

2006 resolutions...

Wow time surely flies. In another 12 days we'll be ushering in 2007. This morning I started thinking back of the resolutions I made for this year and if I manage to accomplish any of em'. To tell you the truth I didn't remember much of it but lets have a look shall we.

1. Lose weight
Surprisingly managed to lose 2.5kgs, very impressive (at least to me) although handful of ppl are telling me to stop losing. :P

2. Look for a new job
Not forthcoming this year, even my job scope hasn't changed. Sigh. I did have offers but nothing safe enuff for me to actually accept.

3. Find a girlfriend
Ahh managed to find someone finally. Sadly its not going to be easy. Gonna be rocky for quite awhile but hope all works out. Wish me luck folks!

4. Travel overseas
Manage to head to North India for 16 days, had a great experience. Won't go back though. Hehe.

5. Buy a house
Not forthcoming as well. Still haven't mustered up enuff downpayment. =(

6. Slow down on my drinking
Even though most don't believe it but yes i have cut down on my liquor. Hmmm maybe thats how I lost some weight. =)

All and all not that bad huh. 4 outta 6. 67% success rate. Guess I can work on the other 2 in 2007 with a whole load of other resolutions. Haven't really thought about it but I'll come up with something soon.

Okay I better head back to work. You guys have a good week k. Cheerio.

merry christmas...

Ahh its that time of the year again. I don't really celebrate it but somehow it is one of the most colorful holidays around. Could be due to the abundance of songs on it as well as all the colorful decorations. Guess being in US for 4 years also influenced me a tad bit. The celebrations there are much more elaborate and festive though especially being their major holiday as well as the bundles and bundles of snow. Sigh. Really do miss snow. Come December the environment just changes. Everyone is perkier and go about with more gusto. You don't really get that in Malaysia. I noticed its more of a shopping holiday than anything else. Can't help it with all the year end sales.

This year I'll be pigging out during Christmas. Gonna starve till then though. Been abstaining from alot of stuff. After losing some weight, last thing I wanna do before 2007 is gain it all back. LOL. Although am not sure I can withold myself with all the yummy treats on offer. Anyways its not often you get to pig out so might as well dig in right. Hehe.

Well just wanted to wish you folks a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!! =)
