Superman Baliks

Dont u just hate it when people start telling you about the storyline especially when they know you have not watch the movie yet? Or even worst when you tell them ur gonna catch that movie that day. "Ooo.. Cyclops died in X-Men 3" or even "Superman has a ......... (deleted for the benefit of those who have not watched it)"... Doesn't tat sound familiar? And dont you just frigging hate it when that happens? My mood would have sunked rock bottom.

So,

For the betterment of mankind, one shall just keep to themselves the storyline unless asked.
And to enjoy the movie, dont tell your friends you are watching the show esp if you know that they have watched it.

P/S: Superman is 2 hours and 40 minutes long. Great show but somehow I can relate more to the late Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain and Tom Welling.. but now the new Brandon Routh... He seems a bit too model-looking and plastic. Guess too much touch-up le. Moreover, the set and tone seems like Im watching an old movie. Get me?? Anyway, wont spoil you peeps' fun.

It's not that bad le.

SAUCE... Somebody Help Me

This is not Rihanna's song k.

Something is wrong with me. Im eating as much as I worked out in gym. Maybe gym has a reverse effect on me. Maybe its my PMS. Maybe I have a big appetite. I love food but I love a great body too. If I continue to binge, Im scared I will end up like of those bulimic girls. Yikeeeeessssss...... Throwing up after each meal... what a waste....

Control control control....... just lesser chocolates, burgers, potato chips, french fries, ice cream, cakes, rice.......

more salads, fruits and water.

Pork still the same!!!!

Somebody, please save me from the terrible guilt.
Food is a must. An almost 36-24-36 figure is also important.

Gal Power

How right is it for us gals to make the first move? I know its the bloody 21st century and that it is ok for the gal to go after the guys she likes. So they say..

What if he prefers it the other way around? Err.... damn MCP lol
What if he rejects me? SHY SHY SHY betul.........
What if he tells all his friends about how desperate I was? *X%# asshole... Can buang straight
What if he feels I am too aggressive? okok.. put up a cutey damsel in distress look
What if he never felt the same way for me? Well, at least i did try lol....can add to my friends list then.

Hahaha... yeah right. Easier said than done. If you ask me, I dont think I will have the nerve to go after a guy. Im not sure how I will take rejections. But then again, I dont think there is any harm trying. Especially if you are trying to get to the guy of your dreams right???? Just like getting to the gal you like. But maybe guys have a thicker skin. I dont know. How hard is it to ask someone out? My answer: VERY VERY VERY HARD.

And please guys, if you are thinking if I have someone I like to kao right now, PLEASE think again..... :P

Chocolates

Give me chocolates and I will do anything.. well, almost anything. Love them to bits and reading about its health giving properties seems to be a good excuse to stock up yeah. It's amazing how chocolates can stimulate our body's own endorphins and makes us a happy person. Dark chocolate helps lower cholesterol or did it have lower cholesterol? Hmmm... And yes, Willy Wonka and His Chocolate Factory is any kids dream. Even mine. I wont mind having a fountain of chocolate but I must say Shang's Chocolate Fountain was overated. Maybe I should go for one of those chocolate fondue next. It's rich, looks yummmy to say no to.

When I was a kid, I always waited eagerly for the hampers to arrive during festive seasons. Cos I cant wait to open the Vochelle box - always in their ever nice lovey-dovey packaging. Then as time passes, I had my share of Van Houten, Kit Kat, Cadbury, Ferero Rocher, M&Ms, Hersheys etc right up to the over-priced Belgium chocolates. I must admit. Nothing taste as good as this Belgium chocolates. They make great gifts. They make people happy. They make you healthy. They make you crave for more and more and more.

So folks, whatever it is, if u ever need to apologise or bribe me, (and pork is nowhere to be found) chocolates will do ..... temporarily.

p/s: Thanks to CT for all the M&Ms to keep me going in the office. :D The dentist will have something to say when I visit him. :D

Forward Thinking

Something Ted said yesterday has got me thinking... Where will I wanna be in the next 5-10 years? I know its quite typical of interviewers or bosses to ask you that question. And even more typical that I dont have a definite answer. Why? Too far to plan? Everything I plan seems to turn out otherwise? So let seee......

Climb up the corporate ladder? Well, if it means exchanging my soul and life for a better paycheck, nah......
Own my own business? First question would be what business? And whether its really what I wanna do.
Be a rich tai tai? Cant la.. too la la and boring. I cant imagine myself shopping, going gym, pedicure, facial and spa every day.

I may be good in planning when it comes to work but I seriously doubt when it comes to my life. I thought my UT would be somewhat a career change and an avenue to look into a different side of me. At this point of time, I think its only the additional income that is attracting me. I am not pushing myself hard enough to move to the next level. I am not reading enough to equip myself with knowledge. I am not talking to enough people to learn from them. My friends may be right to think that there is still a very far journey for me. I know I really need to start preparing a roadmap for my life, career, etc. And I know I should give it a thot or 2. I dont want to be 30 and not knowing where I am heading to and what I really wanna do.

Cos thats pretty sad....

Stucked? Maybe

Finally, I AM CONFIRMED. Not only that. With a raise!!! Hence, I will also be eligible to go Shanghai. Yipeeeee..... So those who really hate me can continue to hate me... hehe.. But then again, the trip comes with a price. I am not to leave the company one year from the departure date or I will have to pay RM700 back to the company.. Haiseh..... What the heck? I still have my pay increase. Phew!!! So I am officially "stucked" in my company....

Confirmed triple happiness for Porky Queen on a Monday morning. :D

Open Mind

What if it was true? What if it does happen? What will I feel? I asked myself this again and again. SAD does not belong in my dictionary. I only desire happiness around me. Where is the sound of giggle and chuckle? Where is the light of hope shining at? WHERE? They are all in me.

I think.

Perhaps, am too proud to feel bitter. Denial is always the best way to forget. Eventually, it will fade away. It will leave. It will be forgotten. And all we have is afterall a mind that continue to play tricks on us. A mind that we choose to have in us. An open mind that I choose to adopt no matter what happens. No matter what it comes with, I shall embrace every single action with an open mind.

I believe in an open mind, but not so open that your brains fall out. -Arthur Hays Sulzberger

Shanghai Next (i hope)

A good news has just lighten up my day. We have a company trip in August. And we are going to Shanghai. Muahahahaha.. okies stop that envy look. Yes yes.. I am looking forward to the trip as I have always wanted to go to that part of the world. But I am only allowed to go unless I am a confirmed staff. And yes, confirmation is suppose to be next week. Yipeeeeeee.... my boss thot I was already confirmed.. Geessh....

Nevertheless, I will sit here patiently until end week for them to pass me a confirmation letter and a raise :D

youtube.com

Those who know me will know never to bother me when Im hook on drama series. Guess its the same for some when it comes to football. So drama series is like football to me if you dont understand how obsess I have become. So my latest addiction was to catch the popular Taiwanese drama "Prince Turned Into Frog" on astro. Why? Not an ordinary sad love story but rather a slapstick drama with quirky sounds effects and hillarious cast. Yes, cute girls and handsome boys. So yes, my 9pm every night is very much in front of the tv, contemplating whether to return the remote control to my mom.

Until....
.
.
.

I found the existence of www.youtube.com where I could watch all the full episodes of the drama online (while working). FRIGGGGGIING AWESOME..... So there I was, watching 4-5 episodes a day while sending emails and working on proposals. I think Im so gonna get fired soon. But at least I performed le... Hahaha.. That's why I love my job. It requires me to "watch" a lot of shows. Muahahaha..

So yes, as of 2pm @ June 12, 2006. I have already finished the entire series. Im free from the idiot box again.. "_"

Okies... back to work b4 i really get fired... ;P

Pertama Kali

Okok.. I have never been anyone's chi mui officially so I obviously didn't know how exciting it could be. So there I was being a photographer for Siew Kim and Alan's wedding on a early Sunday morning.

The Happening Chi Muis

Me And Shea Thin

Me and Mei Yee

Mei Yee, Kathy, Yit Wei, Me
What a fantastic day. Had to miss the lunch at Tampin but Im sure it was great fun :D

Congrats again Siew Kim and Alan :D

Football Maniac

What does HR and girlfriend/wives have in common? We believe football can sometimes be a nightmare. Now that the soccer fever has hit the town.. and i mean HIT really hard, what can we expect?? And what can we do about it? Let's see!!

1) People turning up to work with puffy and panda looking eyes. Or worst. They prob dont exist for that month.
Solution: Unless you get admitted to hospital or is on maternity leave, MCs wont work on you. You can still try though!!! And bring toothpicks to stretch your eyes. :D

2) HR breathing down your neck all and spend 1/2 their time looking at your clock-in schedules and questioning why you are late for work.
Solution: Tell them to get a life. Or watch some football. And of course, it comes with a price on your paycheck or promotion.

3) Packed mamak / stucked in the jam or find it hard to look for a parking .
Solution: Go early and not in between games or just stay home. Better still, catch a movie, shop - go somewhere that has no plasma TVs smacked in ur face.

4) Bfs and husband (some la) are too engrossed in the game to spend some quality time with you gals.
Solution: Celebrate cos its our time to enjoy some time with friends and trust me, they will definitely call to check on you. If not, consider what a bastard they are and seek revenge when the game ends. Muahahaha.

5) What's football without the bottle of overpriced beer? Or without the ever fattening chips? Or the ever-sweet teh ais?
Solution: Drink/eat and suffer the consequences later. What's a bit of a beer belly or additional pounds added up to that plus some doses of diabetes? :P

And to all the attached-turned-single for a month, it's time for some footie celebration. Why not right? :-P

Driving Skills

Lately, I have been thinking if my driving is that scary. I thot it was my mom being over paranoid at times when i go a lil' (i mean a lil' only) faster than a normal driver. But my friends share the same feeling. They called me a mad and fast driver. Let me emphasize here once again. I am a very safe driver .... well, occasionally. I dont go above 110kmph. I dont drive on the fast lane. I dont scare the car in front of me by sticking too near to them. I dont make illegal U-turn. I don't beat the trafic lights. I brake a lot. See?? What else do I need to say to prove I am a safe driver? :D

Hmmmmm... I guess I will try and slow down a little when my little Myvi arrives.... Muahahaha.. about 4 months waiting period. Seems like a blardy long time but guess it's better than one year. Muahahahaha... frankly i wont mind driving the little APPLE still for now:D

Deprived of Sleep

Drats, it's only 3.23pm and I have 2.5 hours till work ends and another 8 more hours away from home. AHKL, why must you be so bloody hardworking? Shucks... im gonna have a LONGGGGGGGG week. What to do? I got clients to see, friends to meet, gossips to catch up with, fats to burn, family to love, unsolved business to attend to... Arrrrggggghhhhhh.......I need more sleeeping time!!!!! Thank goodness I dont have a bf that needs my full undivided attention. Cos that would mean lesser time being a pig. I need min 8 hours of sleep daily but I am not getting it. My eyes are really heavy and I have to blog in order not to fall flat on my keyboard. Sleeping on the job!!! That would cost me my pay check!!! I miss school days. Teachers will just let us sleep if we were to complain of period cramp or migraine. Girls always have the unfair advantage. I mean why shouldn't we? Maybe I should take some coffee? But me not big fan of coffee. I love tea. Chamomile and Peppermint tea to help me sleep at night. Yes yes... i really need some sleep now.

Yawwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnn......... 3.36pm and still counting....... tick tock tick tock

Pump It Up

Pump what? Not what some of you may be thinking over there. Tsk tsk tsk!!! I just attended and my feeling? It was great. I feel strong and I am going to be the next Wonder Woman... MUAHAHAHA.. of course not!!!!

It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Maybe because I was using the lightest weights :D or maybe its because I really tot it was going to 100 times tougher. And thanks to Sifu Ted for telling myself and Warren what we needed for the class. Wouldn't have known if not for u.. hahaha..

So what do one get at the end of the class? Aching thighs and Shivering Hands!!!!! No joke. I cant even sit on the toilet bowl or getting up of my chair without feeling handicapped... hehe.. but trust me, all these whining and complains will just make me go for more. Call me sadistic but no pain, no gain. My porky tummy and arms are still very much visible and that's the ultimate reason for Body Pump.

Ahh.... yes yes... after a long session of being tortured, how can I not pampered myself to a pork feast at the end of the day. Porky Queen had to have a weekly dosage of pork and hence the BKT session with the other pork lovers..or people who eat pork le like me. So a wholesome dinner at Old Town with Keith, Steph, Ted, Jay, Ali and Chelsea. No thanks to Jay for stealing my "yao chou kwai" or was it the other way round?? But thanks to more BKT soups, lots of chili padi, more lean pork and definitely more "yao chou kwai"... Slurppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp.....Just bring it on man.

The Queen is Happy Now!!!

Double X-Men 3

People ask why I watch the same movie twice esp when I didnt really like it? My answer: Well, it was still worth it. I managed to see another 30secs clip which I missed the last round. I mean, we thot it was over ma.. so we were wrong. And of course the Cathay experience was a bit different and did bring back some fond memories. Yes! The days of watching movies in Paramount and Ruby cinemas snacking on kuacis may be over. But somehow, somewhere, the feeling of being in that shabby cinema and tickets that cost less than RM5 just cant be forgotten. My late-dad always brought us there to watch a movie whenever he is around. And kids being kids, we always wanted the box seats upstairs. To get a better view I suppose. And yes, we never fail to enter without a packet of those tidbits. How spoilt!!!

So yeah, the RM10 and 2 hours were not entirely wasted k. I had entertainment both on and off-air. Thanks to the jokers around me. :P

F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

What's more important than presents on a day like this? Definitely people who care about you around you. And that's what we gave the young lady. Our presence!! It may sound lame but someone I know once said "Our presence is the present!!" Of course, we got her an actual gift too le..

Happy Birthday To You Diana Lim!
