The will to have financial freedom and complete work are taking up my time. I havent been home for dinner the entire week. Friends are neglected. Only saw Dimples once this week. I have not started on the alumni thingy. And Im losing my gym freak status. And now im losing my Porky Queen since im also banning pork... for the time being.
Really looking forward to my Xmas weekend and also Hanoi next week (tat if the bird flu dont come in full force). I need a bloody break...

Dimples Found Porky Queen
*extracted from moments in life
When the door of happiness closes, another opens
But often times we look so long at the
Closed door that we dont see the one
Which has been opened for us.
Dont go for looks, they can deceive
Dont go for wealth, even that fades away
Go for someone who makes you smile,
Because it only takes a smile to
Make a dark day seem bright
Find the one that makes your heart smile.
May we have enough happiness to make us sweet,
Enough trials to make us strong
Enough sorrow to keep us human and
Enough hope to make us happy
And no, i didnt find Dimples in the gym. I will leave you guessing..... and as the title says, Dimples Found Porky Queen.

2 Gals, A Guy and A Taxi Driver
Bright on a Sunday morning... wait.. it was not bright. It was 5.45am when I left the house to participate in a treasure hunt organised by Ambi Pur. A part of me was thinking "Why did i get myself involved in this? I could be in bed sleeping." But the end result was worth it definitely. Picked Lady Di and MNG (and yes, I have cleared my debts with you) to the flag off point. And Malaysians being typical, never arrive on time.
Team 16.. my lucky number.... Get ur engines started gentlemen...
How Fresh We Look at 6.30am
Our F1 Taxi Driver.. he's quite crazy 
Gungho Taxi Driver all ready to go... 
Answers were everywhere.. and still we got them wrong :P
must be bcos we were too busy taking pictures...
Still looking pretty 10 hours later
Unfortunately, we did not win anything. But it was a great experience for me despite having to wake up really early. I hope you both had fun too. Just like Happy Feet. 
And we are still the well-known 
Salute to Baby Bunny
Backtrack to last Friday. Gym was a must to go all out. Friends wont believe me when I tell them I will not be stepping foot into gym for the next 5 days. But CC spoiled it for failing to make his appearance and we were already 15 minutes into the class. Thank goodness for another co-instructor who was coincidentally attending BCombat. She ended up teaching instead. I would have ended up sending CC nasty messages if class was cancelled. And of course, as Baby Bunny insist that I credit her for allowing me to FFK her for dinner after gym so I can adjourned to eat Steven Corner's yummy Chicken Chop in Uptown. Hahaha... but thank you for understanding gal. What are gal friends for right!

Sabtu, Ahad & Isnin
For the first time - after a long long long time -, I hardly sweat in gym. Went to Yoga and Salsa on Saturday, thanks to the power of persuasion by EC. Yoga is difficult and not as fun as BBalance so I think I was cheating throughout the class.. muahahaha.. I should have gone BStep with Diana after Yoga but was too lazy. And when Salsa came, EC and I were contemplating to skip the class when we saw so many hip aunties waiting for the class. Thank goodness we didnt. It was not tat bad after all. I was literally stepping everywhere but EC guided me well. Phew.... I did enjoy myself. And a porky dinner with Steph at Dave's Bistro kind off wasted my whole effort in gym. Wait... but i didnt really work out...no sweat...so tat cant be count. Hahaha.. thanks for the lovely belated bday dinner gal.
Thank goodness for BCombat with Baby Bunny and EC on Sunday. I dont feel so guilty now. With stomachs to fill, shoppings to do, movies to watch (and yes going to the wrong cinema), stories to catch up, books to collect and more meals to fill the tummies, I pratically spent 11 hours in Curve on Sunday. Time sure flies. And ignorance no more.
And went bonkers on Monday. Many impulse and unplanned shopping. But was worth it, I feel. Maybe not when I have to pay the credit cards. Hahaha.... Xmas shoppings, traffic and human jams . all done and left with a pair of exhausted legs by night.
Yawnnnnnnn..

On a Non-Gym Friday
So made my way to Bayu Puteri to check out TT, Doug and JW's new crib. Not bad for the price they are paying and best part it has a view of the swimming pool. And what so great of the view? That's the excuse they used to punk'd their victims and snap photographs to add to their wall of shame collection. Sadly, I was one of them... :P 
Proceed to Krisada in Aman Suria for Tom Yam. The verdict. After so many postponement - months after months - the impact of eating thai food was no longer there. Not as excited as before but nevertheless still good. And with 11 people sharing a set of RM242nett meal, it was certainly worth it. The portion were relatively enough. Or either that we are not big eaters. But nothing beats eating in Bangkok itself....
The night ended young for me. After a short visit again to their crib, I had to excuse myself for a bright early morning. Long weekend though.

Friends Think Im Obsess With Gym
When I told LKS that my last visit to the gym was Monday (today is Thursday), he said, “Are you sure you are feeling ok?”
............................ (speechless)
And Dougie and gang forbid me to go gym on Friday so we can all go for TOM YAM.
........................................................ (Even more speechless)
How can they ask that of me??? Friday is BCombat day. But friends have to come first.
(hint: see how SUPER NICE of me to skip gym for you people. Dinner better be on you guys)
Top 5 Excuses When Relatives Get Non-Creative
Very useful for those attending wedding dinners this few months.
MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION: So when your turn to get married ar?
1) When I have the time...
2) Oops. I already did. I just didnt invite you.
3) When your daughter or son gets married...
4) When you decide to fund my wedding...
5) When I realise I want to get tied down with kids and having no life like you..
Different Generation
The things we do sometimes give out our age.....
When you are in your early to mid-20s, you spent your weekend with friends partying non-stop in clubs or attending birthday parties.
When you are in your early to mid-20s, you spent your weekend with friends partying non-stop in clubs or attending birthday parties.
When you are in your late 20s and early 30s, you can't avoid receiving wedding summons from your friends.
And if you are married with kids in your 30s and 40s, you tend to attend their full moon and children's birthday parties. 
What about 40s and 50s? What do we attend ar? More clubbbing, weddings and children's parties?

New Stuff
No im not going to talk about gym now. In fact, Im gonna write about the steam room. In my entire year and a half in gym.. and the steam room, I have never come across a full house in that smoky sweaty room. Maximum 3 people in a steam room usually but last Sat, there were 10 women crowding inside trying to have their pores open. Dont know why I found it funny at all but somehow the big crowd didnt make the room any hotter. And funny cos everyone seems not wanting to leave.
Later in the night, after a kids bday party and yum cha, TT, OTS and LK and I headed to kill time in bowling. I call it ROLLING. And not bad a score for someone who does not really bowl.... aka ME. First game - 66 points.
Second game - 88 points.
Someone should buy the lottery.. 6688
And when Sunday came, I put on my chauffeur cap and drove mom for a wedding dinner in KL. EC agreed to have dinner and suggested Alexis. Which I was cool since I have not been there before. Somehow I dont know why I think Alexis was in Maju Junction Mall instead of Great Eastern Mall. Thank goodness I didnt have to drive there. I would have ended up in the wrong side of the town. Lovely evening, good food and great chat with EC... while he annoys the waitress with his 1001 requests. muahahaha....

3 Days In A Row
I think i should move and just live in the gym.
Sunday - cardio machine + BCombat (was late for yoga)
Monday - pilates + yoga (RPM was full)
Tuesday - cardio machine + BCombat
Finally, tried Myke's class yesterday since he was replacing Terrence in FF Consplant. Since the former didnt teach in FF Maxis when I was there last 2 weeks, I was hoping I am not tat jinx to miss his class this round. And as usual, when he asked whether there was any first timer in the class, only 1 hand was up. But when we asked "any first timers in my class"... i think almost everyone's hands were up in the air. *grin*
But that does not mean his class was not good. It was great but my leg still ache from the pilates stretching and i was not familiar with his tracks. I think they are older tracks. But its good still cos am getting bored of the newer tracks. Hehe... hopefully to attend the small boy's class again in the near future.
Am missing BStep and BBalance already. A bit of BPump and RPM. But no gym until Saturday. Need some time to recuperate.

RASCAL FLATTS -What Hurts The Most
a song i like a lot and is posted in conjunction with Porky Queen reaching her 100th entry in this blog.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Not seeing that loving you

Doggy Style
What were u thinking? Before I further elaborate on what the title is about, allow me to praise Terrence for his wonderful Combat Class yesterday. His funny antics just make the class even more fun each time. And the power and force he puts in just keeps you going non-stop. Highly recommended. Hope to attend more but I have been missing Teoh’s Step class on Saturday so much I am feeling guilty.
Anyway, back to Doggy Style. Was very excited when I saw the ads in the paper and I know "THIS I MUST GO". I need to find out if the mascot is as cute as the one I saw in Movie World in Aussie.
Queuing with parents and kids... but me with no kids....
Persuade Lady Di to join the queue
The 2 Big kids on Stage
We were so delighted....... or at least I am la... that big fury animal must be exhausted in that suit... thanks to WL for snapping pictures for the 2 ladies. And waiting for us while we shop. Hahaha
And of course, being the anal us, we cant help but to some spot some mistakes on the poster ads of the event.. Terrible huh? Another sign of carelessness...
And that night, I finished reading Guys and Dogs by Elaine Fox.
A funny romance story which I like. And you know wat they say about man who likes dogs? High chances of being good husbands. Er.... not sure if i can believe that... but worth as a guide. So next time, ask ur man if they have dogs of love dogs?? hahaha.. worth a try.

Gym Again
I don’t usually gym on Tuesday. Yesterday was exceptional as I did not gym on Monday. Headed towards to FF Consplant for BCombat and BBalance. The jam was horrendous, I have to admit. But nevertheless I managed to reach there 10 minutes before class. Ayeo joined me in both classes. But he was good despite not being a class person. I am beginning to like BBalance more. Feels more flexible these days but must still work on the warrior pose. That one is a killer but since it will tone my legs, might as well learn it well. But somehow some of the poses kinda feel kinky… and Ayeo said the music seems like the ones you played when you have sex.
*slap forehead*
I don’t know what else to say.

Chili Padi Cow Queen??
Friday's gym didnt happen because of the heavy downpour.
Instead, on Saturday I went for BBalance and RPM which was kinda ok. Boring cos no one I know went to gym. And when evening came, I totally lost my appetite for dinner when my mom's friend commented about my voluptous figure. While i thanked her for her honesty, I think she was the reason why I only ordered fried button mushrooms for dinner - my only solid food that day. Shucksssss.....
And when Sunday came, I know I have to go for Yoga and BCombat. I kinda like Terrence's way of teaching. Kinda add a little spice to BCombat for the regulars who are already tired and bored of the tracks. Then proceed to lunch at Paddingtons One Utama with Stephy and with last-minuters MNG and LKS. I ordered... 703 or was it 903... it was some dollar pancakes with lots of fruits and nuts. Something healthy and less fattening for the pork lover.
And dinner was still reasonably healthy as well. Phew.....
I know Im getting too paranoid. To the extreme that I am having celery sticks for lunch. But I love the celeries. They are not only healthy but tasty. I wonder if I will ever get over a week's lunch with only vegetables.
I feel like a cow already.

On My Off Days
So took 1/2 day leave yesterday and when people asked what I was gonna do.
Porky Queen: Service car lol... and go gym... and go watch Casino Royale
Most of the reaction I got was: WHAT??? You took leave to go gym?? You are nuts.
Hehe.. Baby Bunny and I wanted to tried out another Combat's instructor class in Menara Maxis so it would only be practical if i left work early. Unfortunately, he didnt teach yesterday. Dratsssss big time.. But it was first time at Maxis and I really look sam pah... really not use to the place there.
So after torturing ourselves in BBalance and BCombat, we headed to indulge in Chillis. This round, Baby Bunny and I shared Triple Play with Mr W who came later to join us. They dont call it Triple Play for no reason yeah.
And yes, I was very adamant that I was never gonna watch Bond show. Well, I'm no Bond fan but now I got to eat my words. Casino Royale was bloody awesome. And coming from a person who never watch most of the old sequels, I really think I am tempted to watch them now. Daniel Craig really had the killer eyes.
Enough now. Need to head to FF for RPM. Yes on my leave day again. Gym for 3 days in a row... Not bad!

More Resistance
Seeing how TT has lost so much weight recently, I guess RPM is really working for him. So I decided I should give it a shot.
So I claimed that I was new in RPM... which was indeed ½ true. I did RPM a year ago for 2 or 3 times… on the old bike. So technically I did it before but not the right way. So instructor AL showed and explained all the correct ways to use the machine to the class.
And the class begins.
And after 2 tracks, I was exhausted. My stamina must be really low. And throughout the class, AL kept going “More Resistance More Resistance”. That’s all I heard. Man, cycling is not that easy. There was a moment when my leg could not even pedal anymore and the gal next to me had to lower the resistance on my bike so my legs could move. How shy!!!
But I guess it was worth it. I didn’t give up. I finished the entire class. Cos it’s a motivation to fit into my old clothes.
Hmm… but all the kilos were added back at late dinner with Lady Di and MNG. How is it possible for me to shed off those kilos when I add them back after gym??
Maybe I should just get a whole new wardrobe.

Kaki Gembira
Another free premiere tickets to watch little penguins in Antartica. Never saw the trailer, to be honest, but with such big names like Robin Williams, Nicole Kidman, Elijah Wood, etc, who can possibly say no! And I have a soft spot for soft and cuddly looking creatures. Definitely far better and funnier than March of the Penguins which I literally fell asleep. I dont think I even finish watching the latter.
But the animated musical was different. It was hillarious but I think TT and WL laughed more than I did. I was somewhat distracted. Maybe I ate too much KFC. Maybe I feel weird not going to the gym. I dont know. Something is bothering me. I dont know what it is. Hope is not the biatch. I hope I know what it is. Cos its farking irritating me.

The Power of Words
Some people can be a LOW Bitch. Some people can cleverly twist your words and make you look bad in people's eyes. And I fell victim to this people. Thankfully enough, CeL confronted me and cleared the air. She knows me enough not to bad-mouth anyone unlike LOW Bitch. Glad she knows that I didnt volunteer those information.
Some people can be so low.
So unprofessional.
So bitchy.

So unprofessional.

I Was Working
One of the perks of working here is that I get to go to the movies at 2pm on a working day. Haha.. not everytime la... but more like I got invited to watch it.
Watched Cinta - sebuah kisah tentang cinta before the actual screening on Nov 30. A Malay movie directed by Kabir Bhatia, it touches on 5 different love stories that cut across various age group. A very modern and touching film which depicts various of love - old, young, forbidden, everlasting, sacrifice.. The scene that touched me the most is the sacrifice made by the husband to let go a wife he truly truly loved. In a note, "Love is about letting the person I love go and knowing she is happy."
But i didnt cry. Im quite the tough chick. Only cry when I watch Mighty Joe Young. When that poor guy felled off the ferris wheel. Not Titanic. Not World Trade Centre.
I think I am heartless.

Slacker Queen
One should never attempt BCombat the day after BPump. It's TORTURING. I never felt so exhausted in BCombat. Arms were aching badly. Legs were reluctant to move. After 1/2 of Muay Thai track, I was ready to give up. Should never push myself any further just in case.
Baby Bunny and I decided to indulge in sinful McD after that. What a way to treat ourselves after gymming. Muahaha... no wonder I have not shed those extra kilos. And Baby Bunny can really eat. But lucky her, she does not put on weight! Im so JEALOUS now...
And as both of us reminisce about our school days, we cant help but to laugh at the similar dreams or nightmares that we have. Even till today.
You know what they say about laughing after a full meal? Makes you fatter. Hahahaha...

I AM SO GOING TO BAN CURVE ON MONDAY
Yes Im PISSED.
Despite being there at 7.10pm, I was denied entry to BCombat for one good reason. I didn't register for class. There was a long line and stupidly thinking I could sneak into class was rather naive of me. Can u believe the GUARDS never left their place for a good 10 minutes or more? They even put a bar on the other exit to forbid us from entering. WTF!!!!!! I was so close to even do my combat stance outside the studio. But on 2nd thot, nah...
Lady Di and I grew impatient of waiting and wasting time. So we proceed to use the cardio machines. YES machines again. What's with machines and I this month???
After stepper for 15 minutes and cross trainer for another 10 minutes, I already felt out of breath. Drats......How to continue with BPump later??
So While waiting for the lucky members to finish BCombat, and I can help but to feel envious, Lady Di said, "So Cham right. Can see but cannot go."
That's when I DECIDED. No more Curve on Mondays. It's a waste of time. CC's class is way too packed. And curve is just way too jinx.
Even AJ was not spared of the miserable porthole and I think she suffered a broken spoiler resulting from it. Sniff Sniff Sniff. Mommy is so sorry.... :-(
So yeah, until Im less pissed, Curve FF will not be an option for me. NOT even for BCombat and BPump with my usual instructors.

Hectic Weekend
My Friday gym ritual did not happen as I was once again summoned to my sis's graduation dinner where I spent 1/2 the evening feeling bored. Believe me! You don’t wanna sit in a room full of strangers and who to me, are very proper and boring. Haiseh..... Mom was too busy chatting with other parents. And worst, some dude sitting beside me trying to make clever conversations which I have no interest to listen. I should be in CL's birthday. Im sure that was more fun. Drats....
So since Friday no gym, Saturday must go to gym. Was looking forward to BStep and BCombat until Curve had to cancel all the classes due to some unforeseen circumstances. What a diplomatic way to put it!!! Apparently, some dude had a heart attack while using machines and hmmm... died. Poor chap. So headed to Manulife with WL instead. At least they still have 2 evening classes. Did BStep 1/2 way cos my legs were aching badly still. Must be the cross trainers. Didnt I say I hate machines? Anyway, after that was BCombat taught by KT and YKH who was not spared the freedom to be in class as a member. But I guess 2 instructors were better than one. So who is complaining? Anyway, headed to Restoran Muar at Tengkat Tong Shin for dinner. Good food but too oily for me. But kam sia WL for bringing me there k.
And when Sunday came, Baby Bunny and I headed to CC's housewarming, Thinking food wont be served that early, we crashed our ass at TGIF and each finished a bowl of mushroom soup before that. And bottomless Ice Lemon Tea. Yikess.. Already 1/2 full when we reached his crib. Haha.. and were the first to arrive. Kiasu betul. So overall nice place, nice neighbourhood, nice host and of course nice food. There was siu yook (u can see my face light up when I saw pork)..... and the cakes.. they were AWESOME. Wanted another piece of chocolate cake but since I haven’t been a good gal at gym, I guess I have to pass. :(
Wanted to so crash into bed but I think I ate too much. Dratss.. Instead finished reading Five People You Meet In Heaven. Was about time I did.

It's Hard To Choose
Something Baby Bunny said got me thinking... again. Career vs Love. Which will I pick?
Would I give up LOVE for a high flying job in the States, packed with an attractive and irressistible combo package called security and stability? If yes, am I materialistic?
Or will LOVE be strong enough for me to lead a simple and perhaps happy life, where material gains do not matter?
It's really hard to decide. Which road will one take? Which road will you take?

Aliens in Cardio Dance
Always good to try out new instructors and new classes. Had a go at Jimmy's Cardio Dance class yesterday after Combat.
And my observation from the 2 classes?? Cardio Dance members dress in more colourful gym attire. I AM so SERIOUS. Looking at what Baby Bunny and I wore, we were so out of place. We were BORING. We were not in pink, turqoise, yellow or purple like most of them. Shucks... But guess we had a great time making a fool of ourselves. :D
Do i like it? Maybe. But Combat still remain #1. Cos its faster and impactful. It feels strong and powerful. And its more serious than Cardio Dance where I spent 1/2 the time laughing and trying to remember the dance steps.
Im so not cut out to be a dancer "_"

STRESS
I must be stress. I dreamt of work yesterday. I was asked to try and write an article in Mandarin. BUT BUT BUT... I dont know Mandarin. Can speak. But cant read and write. And one month Mandarin class cant help you in that. I must be really stress.

Grammar Issues
My English is not perfect. Neither is my grammar. But ever since GB constantly correct my mistakes back in PR days (which i of course thank and love her for this), I tend to be more careful and anal. And yesterday I cant help but noticing an announcement notice on my gym's board. It was HORRENDOUS. I can easily spot 4 grammar or spelling mistakes in one piece of announcement. Even announcement was spelt as annoncement. Not mentioning that the sentences do not even flow properly. What are these people thinking? Dont they vet their copy before putting them up? It's really ridiculous.
Cant Live Without Passport
The wonders of gym passport is that one can visit any branch that they like. So my usual gym session on Mondays at Curve was moved to Subang for some unavoidable reasons. And i did the unimaginable. I used the freaking machines :S I know I know.. I said many times how I hate the machines but I was left with no choice... BodyBalance and BodyJam were not an option. But, the machines were not as bad. Especially since King of Queens on Starworld was accompanying me throughout.
And going to KHY's Combat does have its pro and con. Pro is that he will show u the right movements and stances which other older instructors will hardly touch. Con is that its just too late for a Monday.
Guess we cant have everything.

Halloween Party
When Lady Di invited us to tag along Souled Out for some costume party, I was really expecting Malaysians to dress up. But apart from 5 of us from the same clan, no one else came dressed up to the theme. And that excludes 3 Souled Out staffs k.
Anyway, rewind a bit. Tom Yam with the gang was supposed to happen at Vichuda before Halloween party. But i think since we are not meant to eat Tom Yam or BKT for that matter, the plan shifted to Souled Out for dinner. And thank goodness booking for a group of 14 people or so was still possible at 3pm.

Gypsy Wannabe And the Friendly Witch 
Baby Bunny & Mr W (Witch and Rocker aka Rapper) 
Who else came: Keith, Ted, Karen, Doug, Linda, Senn, Angie and Ali
and finally.... JuOn and Dead German Soldier. 
Scary la JuOn.. no wonder she won best dressed that night

And if u want a peaceful sleep, dont touch her wine bottles
But, as soon as Juon claimed her prize, she returned to her normal self. 
What a night it has been.... FUN AND AWESOME. As everyone slowly left, we were joined with the 2nd batch of people - Lady Di and Wai's friends. But flu soon caught up with me and I had to bid farewell to all. No fun driving home sneezing all the way. But for a night filled with laughter, it was WORTH IT.
Till 2007's Halloween......

Goodbye My Fish Bowl Mate
Again. It happened AGAIN. Everytime I feel contented with a place, someone is bound to leave. My fish bowl mate just informed that she is leaving next month. That's freaking fast. It's sad but I'm happy for her of course. And I wish her all the best. Now im beginning to wonder if I will am required to shift place. Or if my boss will move into the room with me. I definitely cant have the room to myself. Or can I? If so, I want my fish bowl mate's place. And her wall.. where I can plaster all my undeveloped pictures. Speaking of which, that will sure to burn my pocket since im such a cam-gal. But I really am sad now cos I will miss having her around. Awwwww...
Wishing u all the best in ur new fish bowl yeah....

My Deepa-Raya
So did I spend my Deepa-Raya as planned?
The answer is Yes.
First off, GYM was a definite affair. Friday! Saturday! And Monday! Each day with at least 1 ½ class. And when Wednesday came, I was already reluctant to step anywhere near Curve again. Even with the holidays, it was packed as usual. Had my first step at YOGA but it’s a love-hate feeling. Still thinking if I will ever make time to go for it. Still love Combat and Step though I hate the old tracks. Why cant instructors stick to the new tracks?
And you think I would have been fitter and slimmer with all the endless hours spent there? Don’t bet on it. Especially when you start to fill the growling tummy with sinful Shrimp Pasta from TGIF. Lunch with Baby Bunny and Mr W on Saturday after gym and it was a hilarious sight. Mr W had a point. We females sometimes talk about celebrities as if they are our best friends. Kekeke.. And as the both of them indulged in political debate, I cant help but to think how non-political I am. Shallow? Maybe!
Anyway, Monday came and after gym, Baby Bunny and I headed to the same place again. And come to think of it I am not a TGIF fan at all. CL joined us and I think we really need to buy 4D cos I think this is the first time I ever seen him in gym… Or maybe second? So another sinful meal of fiery calamaris, BBQ chicken served with mashed tomato and broccoli and lastly the double brownie topped with ice cream. Not forgetting my bottomless ice lemon tea. Slurrrpppppppp…. Of course, we all shared. But that dessert alone already killed my effort. What the heck?
So what else did I do apart from losing and adding calories?
I make a date with Talladega Nights and Rob B Hood. Awesome movies though I prefer the latter better. Its HILARRIOUS and comedies are definitely the best for one’s mind. Plus, I am already in my second season of Sex And The City and believe me, that’s a progress.
Even better, I finally finished reading “Everyone Worth Knowing” by Lauren Weisberger – the same author for Devil Wears Prada. I feel connected to the book especially since I had my share of PR experience for a good 3 years. But I certainly didn’t get paid to party all night long. We PR people are always so misunderstood.
And being a social butterfly, I had obligations to attend to. Met up with MY, GM, ST and KC at a coffee place drinking my new found Tazo Ice Shaken Tea (taste like lemonade but better) after a dinner which I was not sure why I was needed to attend.
Anyway, nothing beats sleeping till late. Not even a facial and spa massage / milk bath. And I’m so serious. Somehow I waited too long for the pampering, and when the time came, I was just not excited anymore. Plus, the facial was the most painful one I ever had. Why can’t I just be blessed with good skin and be spared the torture?
In a nutshell, I gym, ate, watch movies, read, sleep, pamper and social as planned. Now I need a break from my break.

Muruku and Ketupat Season
Since Im stuck in KL this loooonnngg holiday season and since i dont foresee myself visiting houses to free load on their food and collect green packets, I have listed some economical things to do.
1) Go gym - already pay ma.. my as well make full use of it
2) Watch movies - not exactly economical but need to catch up on my shows
3) Watch SATC - Dvds to keep me company and its free
4) Catch up with friends - lagi not economical unless we sit in Chillis for bottomless Ice Lemon Tea. Then again, mamak still more affordable. No need to dress up some more.
5) Spa and facials - also paid already ma. Must go.
6) Read - at least to finish the book that im reading now la
7) Sleep - i think this is the BEST one. hmmmm....
Anyway, wishing everyone a Happy Deepavali and Hari Raya holiday...

Fetish Kills
Broke the news to CL this early morning. It's not my business really. But we both know this person. Or rather I was introduced to him before. And YES! ALARMING! But yet we cant deny that there are people with some crazy or wild fetish out there. When the news spread yesterday, I was just piecing the info together. My initial guess was him. But nothing was for sure until the name was revealed.
OMG...
It's hard when you know that person. You met him. You shook his hand. You hangout with him. At least once. You heard about him all the time in conversations. And now, he happened to have some secrets under his sleeve. Really, maybe I am shallow minded. Maybe we are all. It was shocking. No doubt about that. Maybe we should not pass judgement based on what he did. Yes, its his life. Just stupid to have people found out. But I feel sorry for his family. He should have thought about the consequences. Maybe he was not thinking.
Somehow, I no longer can look at him the way I used to. Or the way I knew him. It's different. But i wish the best for him. Hopefully he realises his mistakes. And repent. Before it is too late.

STOOPID JAM
Hate the jam so badly now. One knows how much gym means to me and not being able to go could easily translate to total DISAPPOINTMENT for me. So yeah, the roads were just filled with cars yesterday. Not sure why but it made me really unhappy and lousy. After dropping GC home, I tot I would give it a shot and try to make it to Curve. But the journey towards that direction was horrendous. So called up Uptown to check on the classes. And they have Advanced Step. SHUCKS. What the hell is that????
So gave up and decided to make my way home instead especially since the jam aggravated my migraine. Plus, got to reschedule my appointment with MNG. Sorry la. But thank you for understanding yeah.
Phew... Thank goodness Mom had some leftover dinner for me. I was starving like mad. Noodle soup never tasted so good. I cleaned up the whole pot for her. Haha... And the remaining mooncakes are just too hard to resist.
See what no-gym makes you do?
EAT MORE!

First time in Muar
Never stepped foot in Johor before. And Sunday was my first. ST and V got married and being the good chi muis, I have no choice but to tag along. Don’t get me wrong. I had great fun. For a trip that lasted only ½ a day, we already managed to eat 4 meals. Breakfast at bride’s place, another breakfast at the highway, pre-lunch at groom’s house and finally LUNCH at Muar restaurant. How not to be fat?
Awww.. thats so adorable
I love her smile and her dress.. and of course her too la.. muacks..
Chi Muis in White
And my discoveries in Muar?
The high antennas on each roof
My saviour - it was hot ok…I
And, they love singing...
Anyone for more culture shock???

Photographer For A Day
Im beginning to think that I can be a multi-tasker. One minute, I am an emcee. The next minute, I am trying my hands on photography. Hahahaha… I don’t mind really. But I dread having to work on the weekends. And it’s a kids event! :S Why do I always get myself into such situation? Can’t help it right since most of my shows are animation. Anyway, though I didn’t feel I contributed much apart from snapping pictures, I enjoyed myself a bit. Stole some ideas for kids games which I can conveniently used in kids’ parties next time.
Thank goodness Baby Bunny was nice enough to look for me for lunch. Muacks Muacks to you… hahaha… You saved me from my boredom.
Even the BEAR from Open Season came to say hello
The Mule deer also dropped by
Hahaha.. how can you possibly be bored.....

One should not go against the gym instructor. REALLY, they can do anything. Friday’s Combat was one good reason. I was one of the innocent members being summoned to teach a track for Combat. As much as I tried to hide and pretend that I do not exist, I cant really help it when all eyes start to stare when CC pointed at me as The LITTLE GAL. SHUCKS. WHY ME? Just because I talk and laugh too much in class should not make me a target right?
So being the good sport, I gave in.
Phew. Thank goodness it was my favourite track.
Being up on stage gives a whole new perspective. First, I need to make sure I don’t fall off the small stage. Second, it’s nice to see everyone down below following your steps. Third, I have to place my stance in the opposite directions. :S And lastly, I feel my sweat dripping over the guy at the bottom. Poor guy…
Somehow I should not be pissed at CC. Cos I did have some fun. Even if it means making a fool out of myself. I mean how often do you get your 5 mins of fame? Or in this case, maybe shame? Members will probably remember me as the gal who sucked in combat. Or not!
At least I smell good up there. Cos Baby Bunny and I applied hair conditioner before class. Putting our theory into practice and see whether doing that will help soften the hair. Hmm… still early to say. But I think the strong smell attracted Mr Smily Number 2 (who also happened to be one of the innocent member) to smile at us throughout the class. But then again, maybe it was our loud laugh and voice that attracted him…
Hahaha…
And welcome Dream Weaver to FF Combat and Step. Let’s do again next week k.
And Step was awesome. Trying to get the hang on the new tracks seeing that I have not tried it since the new release. It’s been while since I went to Step actually. It’s tough and pressuring especially when you are the target of failure… hahaha… somehow Teoh knows I am always blur when it comes to his class. And moreover, it’s new tracks. And I love the new tracks. It has some combat element in it.
Hmmm… give me some time. I’m sure I will master it soon enough. Just wait.

Love Perhaps... Chapter 2
First, it was for work sake. But after following 3 episodes, I cant help but to continue watching it. Although my fav Mr Nice Guy is out of the game already, I still want to know who gets eliminated each week. And more importantly who the mole is? But then again, since I was let into some insider news yesterday, Im not sure if I will still be excited watching it. Nevertheless, IM STILL HOOKED.
Thumbs up for the production team for doing a better job now. I can see some improvements now. I dont feel so bad wasting my precious Thursday in front of my idiot box now.

I NEED MY FACIAL
Must be stressed these days. Either that or I have not been taking care of my skin. Too many breakouts. Even the newly bought Dermalogica Total Eye Care (which i feel its a blardy good deal cos it comes free microfoliant and hydrating booster) does not seem to be helping. Zits keep coming back. Totally hate it. Maybe its the hair. Maybe im sweating too much in gym. I dont know. I always have a lot of Maybes.
Just cant wait for my next facial and spa session. But tat's too far away. :S

Amazing Day
Ever since I started working, lunches have always been with colleagues or friends or alone. Today is one exceptionally different day. For the first time, I had lunch with my mom. Must but 4D... hahahaha… Since I was heading to Shah Alam for a meeting, I thought why not give Mom a call for lunch? And especially since I will be packed the whole week... Lucky she was available.
It was a great time to catch up really. Though we just had plain sizzling noodle. Mom was updating me with her drama stories and I was telling her about my dinner with ex-bosses yesterday. Plus, we did some grocery shopping like we always do before I got AJ. Ever since I had AJ, we hardly shop in Giant together anymore. And I do miss those days. (AJ is my car for those who are still wondering what or who AJ is - tats the prob when you dont read blogs from the beginning)
Well, time was running fast. Dropped Mom back to the office and headed to the station. Turned out meeting was delayed. Drats… should have known better. Wonder when will be the next time I ever have the opportunity to lunch with Mom again? Unless of course, I am posted to the station.
Never!!!!

Crowd is Back
Happily thinking that there will be lesser people in gym this fasting month, I was so wrong. Yesterday’s class was extremely packed. Maybe it’s the public holiday for Selangor the next day. But Baby Bunny and I still manage to secure our usual spot. Phew…
During the 3rd or 4th track, Baby Bunny pointed at Mr Smily who happened to walk into class. Flashback. Mr Smily was the one who we bumped into at Combat 2 weeks back… and he really has a nice smile. Always smiling.
Imagine like a crazy teenager who has just saw her idol, I gave her the “Yeah, that’s him” look. Haha… cant help it. He does have good looks. Good looks until it distracted Baby Bunny and I from following the moves. Hahahaha… Young boy though, I told Baby Bunny.
And I still hate push-ups. They are the worst. Still love the new tracks but I will get bored of it very soon.
Pump, as usual, was next. Alone again with no one to talk to. Sad sad sad… I so don’t want to go gym alone. It’s not exciting anymore. Especially Pump!! Thank goodness I still have Baby Bunny for Combat. :D

Movie Weekend
One of those lazy weekends for me again. The haze is back and I am just finding excuses not to go out. More errands to run at home, more chauffeuring to do and finally caught up with the DVDs and also movies with WL.
Monster House
I guess I expected a lot from Steven Spielberg. Not saying that the animation was boring but it was not something I enjoyed. Maybe bcos I was watching from a DVD, maybe I have no surround sound that will scare the shit out of me, maybe cos I was watching alone, or maybe I was busy reading Everyone Worth Knowing at the same time. I don’t know.
You, Me & Dupree
Three is certainly a crowd. And when you have Dupree in the house, you cant help but to love this fella. Irritating yeah. But I will give him an A+ for whipping up a delicious meal and being such a love-sick loyal dude… minus the butter of course. Plus since I am such a big fan of Kate Hudson, I will never miss her shows. I watched Raising Helen 5 times and I am still not bored of it. A recommended comedy for those who likes to laugh their brains out though I still find CLICK the funniest comedy so far.
More to come.....

Happy Belated Mooncake Festival
Mooncakes are the best. I love them to bits. With so many choices in the market now, I still stick by good old lotus paste. But this festival has never been a special occasion for my family. So I tot, who not I just head to gym? Speaking of which the Combat class was getting really exciting. Then, came home early to accompany mom and sister… only to find that no one was home. Wth???
My bad for not calling to tell them I was coming home early. But my feelings tell me that they must have gone to Aunt’s place and should be back anytime soon.
And I was right.
And so, we did manage to eat mooncakes together after all. Though Mom did hinted that all must return home reunion dinner for the festival next year.
Totally agree. :D

Importance of Dressing Up
This is one of those vain days when I felt like dressing up really corporate compared to wearing plunging neck tops and mini skirts or jeans to work. And thank goodness I did. For a good reason, I was summoned to attend a Ministry meeting with the directors. Why? Cos they need someone to set-up the laptop, turn it on, play the Mpeg file and switch it off. Hahahahaha.... Well, im not complaning. How else can you flaunt your 3 piece suit?
But it was really an experience to be in the Minister's office. And yes, now I know I must be prepared at all time. Especially when it comes to what I wear to work... You dont want to walk into the office to have eyes glaring at you. :P

New Release in Gym
What can I say? I totally dig the new release for Combat. A lot of jumping, skipping and punching. Not forgetting lots of sweat dripping from my skin. It's different attending other instructors' class from my usual. The 2 ladies were good yesterday but I think the PA system in Uptown did not do them any justice. The sound was just not powerful and motivating enough to push you to do even more.
Anyway, went for 1/2 of BodyStep class after that. Not too bad either. But my tummy was growling so much that I decided to call it a day before I faint. And in my hurry to meet the boys for supper, I forgot to stamp my parking ticket. Ended up paying RM5. Stupid me!!! And as punctual as I always am, I ended up being the first there. Grrrrrrr......
Cant wait for my next class. Lets hope the PA system buck up by then. Otherwise, it will be such a disappointing week in gym.

Bos Dari Neraka
How many of us know of bosses from hell? Or whose bosses are like screaming banshees? I am quite fortunate in my 3 years plus of working life as I have yet to come across any. My last 2 mini-bosses were great to have and we still managed to maintain that friendship till today. My current mini boss is a darling too especially now that we have build the foundation of trust.Watching Devil Wears Prada just reminds you that not all bosses are that nice. You are lucky when you find one. In my case, I found 3 ladies. But I think bosses are still human. They may come across mean or make life hell for you – but deep down inside them, there could be some goodness. Reading Devil Wears Prada was a bit different though. Miranda Priestley was all inhumane.
And if you think all women bosses are hard to work with, that’s not true. I had a so-called boss during my internship days who will give me hell and who I will gladly sue if he continues to torture me emotionally. I could claim being under duress if I have known better at that time. But guess the lesser problems I give, the faster and easier I can get out of the company. Anyway, I don’t consider him a boss then. I consider him a jerk. Still is a jerk. I think. I hope I do not need to bum into him ever again.
So watch or read Devil Wears Prada. Reading is more hillarious though. :D
Love... Perhaps
Over the airwaves, television and print, there seem to be endless promotion on the new reality show on our local terrestrial channel. 15 guys vying for the heart of 3 fabulous girls. Sounds like Joe Millionaire? Hmmm…. I am one of the suckers for reality shows and having watched the pilot and the 2nd episode, I can’t help but to be critical.
Well, some of the guys were not bad looking, But, it was not the guys which irritated me. It was more of the technical and production bit. The lightings were horrible. The show is so dark all the time. Even the cutest guy look like he has spread butter on his face. The storyline was boring and choppy. Half the time I have the urge to flip the channel but under certain circumstances, I cant. Plus, the audio was so bad that I can’t even hear what the guys were trying to say. And there were no subtitles. :S And I don’t even want to start commenting about the host.
I should just start making my Thursday plans instead of sitting home being tortured by a low budget crap.

Bitchy Mood
What will be your first reaction when you come home to find your only parking space being taken by a stranger? Bad enough if your neighbour eats into your tiny little space all the time. But this Waja does not seem to be a regular around.
I can be quite a bitch especially when I come home, exhausted and can’t find a nice spot right in front of my house. Okies. Maybe the car is a visitor. But after much waiting, I grew impatient. I needed my beauty sleep. So, after some bell ringing searching for the owner and many negative answers, I decided to leave a note on the windshield of the Waja – informing the person never to occupy my little space again. Seriously, how else can you deal with such situation? I can totally understand if there is a function but if you are a visitor, can you at least park near the person you are visiting so it’s easier for the house owner to find you.
At the stroke of midnight, we heard the car ignition being switched on. Hmmm… looks like I was not the only one who was being unreasonable. My neighbour’s car parked so near the Waja (and of course mine on the other end) that he was literally trapped in between. Talk about difficulty in moving out your car. And because he was very apologetic about the whole thing, I did feel a bit of guilt leaving him the sarcasm note. Too late.
Most of us have issues with our neighbours snapping our parking space, sweeping leaves to our home or perhaps renovating the house at some god-forsaken hours. So we were told to live in harmony and deal with the situation in a civilized manner. But, how do you even start asking them without coming across as offensive? Cos I don’t wan to start making enemies here.
Oh wells…. maybe we can start saving rotten eggs now.

Gym Affair
Remember the time when your teacher scolds you for not paying attention in class? And when you thought you have passed the era where you will no longer be humiliated in that way ever again? Guess not.
People who know me came to accept that I talk a lot… Sometimes too much. So I was happily catching up Baby Bunny (who prefers to be known as that compared to CA) in gym class - talking about how right my theory about Puasa month - … Until…
“xxxx, Stop Talking” said CC in yesterday’s Combat.
Immediately, I turned to the front, ashamed and kept quiet like a 15-year-old who has just been caught playing truant. Taken aback? A bit. I should have just given him the ugly stare and continue talking. What worst could happen? Me sent out to detention? Or in this case out of class?? Hahaha…But then again, when you have so many people in the gym, you don’t want to attract that unwanted attention.
How can you stop someone from talking? It’s not fair. Anyway, Combat was great. Was sweating more than usual. That shows that I am putting my effort now. New release will be out next week and I am sure to find it more difficult to follow the steps. Damn!!
And as usual, Pump was next. This time, I had TT and Lady Di as class partners. AW could not make it again.
A quick summary: Lady Di is back in FF now yippeeeeeeeee……… after a whole drama of being a member with TF and not getting what you have been promised. Glad to have you back in FF with us anyway.
Something kiasu about me every Monday is to stand next to the bars so I can easily grab them after Combat. Anyway, I was really working on my biceps yesterday and I can feel the pain after the track. And have I mentioned that one of the instructor look a bit comical? He kind off remind me of a cartoon character. Maybe like a chipmunk. A cute chipmunk maybe. Maybe if they animate his face, he might be able to make big bucks. Hehe…
By the time the class ended, I was already exhausted. Caught up with Lady Di before heading home to have a pear and a good night sleep. zzzzzzzzzzzz

Weekend with Sex… and The City
Frankly, I was never an avid follower of Carrie Bradshaw and her 30-something friends. I watched certain episodes but I was gladly to miss it for a night out with friends. Yeah, I was not their target market that time. Still not… Maybe soon!!! So anyway, I was watching Season 1 of SATC on Sunday, thanks to my boss who has the entire collection. Did I mention that I was also researching on lives of women in their 30s? Actually, I love the show. I managed only 4 episodes but I am already hooked on to it.
Samantha said in SATC, “Married women find singles a threat. If you are still single, you are not to be trusted,” And not forgetting that you will also get the “Poor single you looks”
Are singles really a threat??
That I will find out when I am 30… and if I am still single. Hopefully I am not…

Mid-20s Crisis
You see… People at my age, or at least me, is facing what I call mid-20s crisis. Laugh all you want but its true. During my Saturday dinner with ML, KW and LSL, I realize how conscious I have become. I complained every single minute about my flabby arms, my so-called sagging skin and also potential high cholesterol when I look at the menu.
KW said, “Well, you have put on about 20% since high school.”
Porky Queen pouted.
KW said, “But, you got to understand that you were very thin back then. And I mean really thin. You were swimming in your pinafore literally. But I share your sentiments. But I will go for my body check-up in the next 5 years,”
Well yes, I am not the only one who are conscious since then. Many people I know have! And it just happens to be a way of life. Back in those days, we can only afford RM1 nasi lemak or mihun goreng. Now… we have the luxury to eat pasta with seafood with added cream sauce and to be pampered with a tiramisu dessert thereafter. So how not to put on weight and increases the risk of getting high cholesterol or diabetes???
And you think weight and health are only my concern? Demands go longer as we aged. So not forgetting our definitely must-have facials, mask and eye cream so that we keep our skin from dehydration. And you think that’s enough? What about gym, spas, massages, pedicures, manicures and hair dye to cover all the white strands resulting from stress and too much thinking? And what about clothes? With so many brands, styles, colours to choose from. Some may say that it’s a luxury to have all of the above. By choice we choose to paint our nails. By choice we choose to go for monthly exorbitant facials. By choice we choose to look good. By choice we choose to smell pleasant. But why not??? We deserved the pampering after a long hard day at work.
But seriously, another mid-20s crisis is to answer when asked why I’m not in a serious relationship. “You think I don’t want ar? No suitable one ma”. I agree that maybe it’s a good time to look for my other half right now. But then again, I’m reluctant to. I rather let things happen. When seeing my friends with their other halves, I can’t help but feel a pinch of jealousy in me. I yearn for the same treatment and love too but I also know I am not entirely ready. Some say I am picky. But how can you not be? The person is someone you are planning to walk the aisle and spend your rest of your life with. I can’t just simply pick someone off the street for the sake being in one. So picky I shall still be…
Something struck me over the weekend. I have plans and things that I want to do now. An opportunity... Perhaps!
Perhaps not!
Who knows???
A Queen got to do what she has to do.
Especially before she reaches her big THREE ZERO.

Pimped Emcee
Once again, I was pimped to be an emcee at no charge. Company had their annual Sports Meet with another sister company and I was given the task to what else… talk la…
Flashback…
MsL: Will you be coming for the Sports Meet?
Porky Queen: (Though I would rather go gym and burn all my fats) Yeah... must show support to the company ma.
MsL: Good. In that case, you shall be our emcee k.
Porky Queen: WHAT??? Why me? Ask DL or someone else la..
MsL: We feel you can ma…..
Porky Queen: Er.. okok… btw, do I get paid?
A moment of silence……
I guess not. Cheaper than cheap labour!!! (Though I did get a souvenir for my hard work)
So with pressure, I meant pleasure, I had to do what I do best. Talk all night with another fellow emcee. Maybe, I should consider being a part-time emcee. Then I can start charging people. Maybe… I may be the country’s top host one day.. Muahahahaha…
Too early for dreams right now but can u stop a girl for having aspiration?

Gym Bunny
After a wholesome birthday and eating so much leftovers over the weekend, gym is definitely a must on Monday. I must say! Monday's combat is getting more pack each week. Why am I not surprised! Hopefully the crowd will get lesser during Puasa month... which I doubt with everyone's fav combat instructor on the loose. Class was great though I know I hadn't put in much effort. Will do better next round. Anyway, CA finally showed me my "entertainment" for that week. CA is right! How can you not tie up your hair when you go to the gym? Especially if your hair runs all the way to your ass. Doesnt it irritate you when it fling all over? Well, it DOES ANNOY us. We will be sure to stay far away from you or provide you a rubber band next time.
AW couldnt make it to Pump and I was too reluctant to go home. So proceed to Pump alone after Combat in hopes to burn all the calories accummulated. Class was quite boring cos I dont know anyone whom I can talk to in class in between the tracks. And I hate having to keep quiet. :S Maybe I should make some new friends in class. Muahahahaaha.. But DC and partner were entertaining. It was not tat bad. I just hate lunges and squats and push up and ..... hmm.. i hate everything that causes pain. But for great legs and arms, I will endure...... and do without complain. :P
Drats...my next gym session wont happen until Saturday. What a long wait. Think I will have accummulated more calories again by then. Double Drats....

25 Already
So yes, I turned 25 last Saturday. Thank you Mom for throwing a house BBQ party for me. Muacks Muacks. I also had to thank the over 70 people who turned up to celebrate with me - Families, primary friends, secondary friends, college friends, Uni mates, colleagues, ex-colleagues dan lain lain…..
So with the help of my magnificent and detailed map, some got to my crib easily. Of course, the rate of people who got lost was quite high especially since they
1) Didn't print the map
2) Didn't follow instructions on the map
3) Prefer verbal explanation than reading maps
So half the time - as predicted - I was on the phone dictating to people how to get to my place. And that's not the end of it. One guest (ET) even had a security guard to escort her to my house. What drama. I actually thought the security guard was gonna give us some warning for making the neighbourhood smoky. Phew… False alarm.
Anyway, some pics from the event can be found at http://anniehor81.multiply.com/ (have probs uploading here le)
Not many pics of food cos the appointed photographer (ML) was busy eating than "working". Tsk Tsk Tsk but allow me to share what was served – fried rice, fried mihun, mixed vegetables, almond vege salad, fruit salad with cheese & olives, potato salad, chai kuey, almond jelly and not forgetting the meat area – lamb, chicken, sausages and beef.
In summary,
- Thanks to WL, EY and my happening uncle for taking charge of the BBQ area and sweating buckets at the pit . You guys are the best!
- Thanks to SY for making the lovely potato salad. Told u it will be a hit. It was snapped up as soon as it arrived.
- Thanks to JL and EY for the wonderful salad and preparing the lamb and beef . They were awesome!!
- Sorry to those who I did not spend enough time with! I know u will understand!!
- And of course thanks to all who gave me my pressies and angpows. Love them to bits!!
- Those who could not make it last minute, I still love you guys. Love you even more when you pass me my presents :D Like CL here…thanks for bringing me my present w/o the "s". Im still waiting patiently k for the rest…
And yes, I shall take some of your advice to have a bigger pit and cute waiter/waitress to serve food for future parties. And not forgetting hot chicks :P
The Queen's friends are definitely wiser and more demanding now.. just like the Queen herself but I had a great time :D thanks to all of you.
Birthday Journey
Sometimes when you look back at the years that have passed, you realize how fast we aged and the birthday celebrations that come with it. As I was looking back at my photo album, I realize how much birthday celebrations I had in my past 25 years.
My First Birthday.. I do look like a boy at that age
My First Birthday.. I do look like a boy at that age
My Duh look.... 2 years old
Getting cheeky with Smurfette when I was 4
This year, I have Minnie Mouse cake (5)
Starting to look vain when I turned 6
When I was in Standard One, I lost my front tooth. This year, I actually had 2 cakes.
I was camera-shy when I was 8 years old
So slowly, as time and years passed, I think I outgrew the parties and cakes. Until...
.
.
My 21st birthday with Uni-mates in New Zealand. Away from family :( but thank goodness friends were there
My 23rd Birthday in Bar Amber, Hartamas with friends from school and work
My 24th birthday in Prego, Westin with CL and then later a surprise birthday by CL with close friends..
I love birthday parties and I love presents... hehe.. And so for 2006, I decided to do a house party for families and friends.... read next blog...
