Facebook World

Slightly unwell today. Was perfectly fine until evening :( Had to cancel makan spree with GHY. sorry. Doc says nothing to worry about....'wai fong' a.k.a. gastric wor.

For those who are linked to me in Facebook will know that I update my status almost daily. Quite some time back I managed to link it to Twitter, meaning my Twitter updates equal Facebook status.

Read an article a few days ago that reported that analysts concluded that Twitter users tend to come from the older age group (even more so for commercial / political purposes) whilst the young ones tend to prefer Facebook, Friendster or other form of social platform that are more 'close' in comparison to Twitter. It probably means that FB updates are more confined to one's own circle of friends..or rather one gets a captured audience. Whilst for Twitter...it's open to the world...everyone sees you..and comments or feedbacks are relatively less interactive.

Hmm...not sure what I'm trying to get at already. Lost in my own words :D

Anyway..I do wonder sometimes if I should stop updating so regularly in FB. And sometimes I wonder why I bother to update. Trish told me that she doesn't update much..cos she wants some 'privacy'. Why do I update? What do I update? Most times..my updates are lil thoughts for the day or lil things that happend to me..that I wished to share to the FB world. Is that showing off?

Yesterday...I simply put up an *AHEM* Today I announced that I raced an Accord in the morning. Was I showing off?

May be.

It's all in the name of fun actually. It's very interesting to note..the kind of things that will attract interest or excitement. Soemthing like..showbiz. Certain film are best sellers some jus flopped. I've also been posting selected notes or videos in FB and not here. Some things,.I just wish to share to a larger captured audience, hence, FB.

When I got home just now..I posted that I was "home.gastric" Nice to see some well wishes. Attention seeking? *shrug*

Sometimes a *single word* can generate a long list of hilarious reactions.

Fun indeed.

Just keep it fun and simple folks. It's pretty straightforward for me..no bitching, no work related matters....and it wil be fun.

15Malaysia is a short film project. It consists of 15 short films made by 15 Malaysian filmmakers. These films not only deal with socio-political issues in Malaysia, they also feature some of the best-known faces in the country, including actors, musicians and top political leaders. You may think of them as funky little films made by 15 Malaysian voices for the people of Malaysia. Visit the site here >>http://15malaysia.com/


The 15 films will be release periodically. Five had been released so far. I've finally watched all.

I didn't wanna go to school

A scene at a drama series I was watching just now prompted me to write this. Let me try...

Once upon a time, on one fine afternoon I was preparing to go to school at nine years old. No one was at home except my brother. Can't remember why he wasn't at school that day and why wasn't my mom at home. Don't remember much but I remember very clearly that sore, bad, sad feeling I had....I DIDN'T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL! Till today I'm not so sure what made me created such a fuss. But I remember how I felt then very clearly...well..quite similar to us now not wanting to go to work on some days because of some shitty meeting or presentation.

As my bro accompanied me to the bus stop to take the school bus, emotions and tears started to build. ..I started sobbing upon reaching the bus stop~LOL~ to my brother's horror. I refused to get into the bus! Dumbfounded...he took me back home :D Unfortunately, my dad got home not too long after that and he whisked me onto his motorcycle and got me to school on time. How he got me to stop fussing..I can't remember. What made me created such a fuss..I really can't remember. In the midst of all the 'commotion'.. ..I somehow managed come up with an excuse / reason for my misbehaviour. I blamed it on a friend...my neighbour in class ..lol! Well..it must be true to some extent...I do remember we had some arguments...and me being 'bullied'. So..I told dad that I didn't want to go to school because of this gal :DDD *wicked* Oh wait..I think I also said something about not being able to see clearly from my seat at the back (in de end I had to wear glasses).

So..dad went to speak to the teacher and requested for a change to a place up front and away from the 'bully' *laff*.

That's not all...my mom came to pick me up in the evening...and looked up the 'bully' ..gave her a earful *tears of laughter*

oh dear..I was such a cry baby.


Me and 'bully' remained as very good friends after that..and still are now. I wasn't just a cry baby..I was a big hypocrite too!

Shhh...she has forgotten that I did all those to her :DDD

Wednesdays

It's Wednesday 6.21pm. Raining heavily out there. Very dark sky and loud thunder. Shall I brave the road now? The road may be badly congested by now :(

Luckily it's Wednesday..a free day for me. No appointments. No gym. No tai ci. Was planning to be home early to have a sit down dinner with dad. But now..hmm..looks like it ain't gonna happen.

Wednesdays..are dangerous days.

When I am idle and bored..I tend to do dangerous things ;p Like..going for a stroll at the mall and then wandered into an optical shop for example. Ohh..why can't they offer interest free instalment for sunglasses?? My cc bills are still quite heavy..I can't make any heavy purchases n..not for now....(at least have to wait until after 6th, push to next statement ~lol~)

When I am idle and bored..I also tend to be a pig. I'm hungry. And I am craving for a sweet good chocolatey drink. I read about Theobroma Chocolate Lounge recently...omigosh...their chocolate drinks look Awesome! I've been thinking about them for past few days. I'm going to have it now this weekend!

I have nothing to talk about actually. Just killing time. Been running out of things to blog lately. How sad. Hardly anyone update blogs nowadays..no updates from my bloggie friends..no updates from other blogs that I read....sad sad sad. Is blogging losing it's popularity?

Btw..check out Gloson's recent entry - he actually came out with 22 reasons to blog - valid points. So...folks..KEEP BLOGGING WILL YA!

Sigh. Still rambling away. I need to pee. Too lazy to go now..will do it when I'm on the way out.

Oh ya..I nearly banged my car big time today while driving back to the office from lunch. My own fault...wasn't looking front while trying to change lane. Stamped on the brakes so hard..that I think I hurt my dear delicate ankle (again). ya ..same one. Think it's just a slight strain on the ligaments..will be ok very soon.

Okieee...bladder can't take it anymore..really have to go.

I freaked myself when I started singing to this song ..a song that was popular during our teenage days.

Found-Lost-Found

I quietly cursed a lil bit at a gal who took my favourite bike at the RPM class tonight last night only to realise a while later that she's actually my former classmate whom I have not met for at least 15 years! lol!

Lemme see...we sat together in Year 4...when we were 10 years old. kakaka! Then we were in the same class during form six. We even stayed in the same housing community at Pekeliling Flats...but different blocks la..across the streets. Despite so..we were not really close friends though. But hey..we were in the same school for 11 long years..how bout that! And guess what..she looks EXACTLY the same. I repeat EXACTLY THE SAME.

Man..how did she do that..I wonder.
So..we sat together again after so many years but in a totally different class this time :D

In de midst of the class, one of my earring fell off when it got caught in the towel. I seldom wear earring especially to the gym..today fatt hou...suddenly felt like putting it on. It's the $99 earring I bought few years back. ..though I lost it. Was so sad..while cycling away...my head and eyes were on the ground searching for it :D

Luckily luckily..I found it later on..after the class. Didn't manage to find the stud though ..but it's alright..at least found the expensive part.

Found an old friend. Lost an earring. Found it back :)
What more can I ask for?

September


In less than 10 days it will be September.

In a Blink of an eye, eight months had flown by. I still can't believe it..how fast time flies. It never use to be this fast.
What happened?? Is the earth spinning faster??

On the second day of 2009, I wrote:

For a start...my NY resolution should be:

...play less work more! ~NOT DONE
...do not procrastinate! ~ERMM..DONE SELECTIVELY
...plan holidays! ~NOT DONE PERSONALLY
..move house! ~NOT DONE

Two days later I discovered:


...."In 2009, instead of making a New Year's resolution, think positively about the year to come and what you can achieve." .....resolution-makers should focus instead on being active, connecting with nature, learning something new and working for one's community. ~ I'D LIKE TO THINK I'VE DONE (AT LEAST TRIED TO DO) QUITE A BIT IN THESE ASPECTS :)

On the same day..I also discovered my 2nd hobby at the gym - RPM! ~ I'M STILL LOVING IT TO SOME EXTENT!

Speaking of that..I wanna go RPM today..but I can't decide which club to go to. PJ or Hartamas? PJ is nearer & timing is right ..no stress to rush through traffic and get all stressed up looking for parking but hor..this particular instructor in PJ..hmm..I almost blacked out the last time I went to his class o.O None of his fault..but....*you know what I mean?*

ok ok..back to original topic....there's nothing worth remembering in my life for the last eight months! Well..got a new car in April. ..other than that..I really can't remember anything else that are worth mentioning and I don't wanna go through all the blog entries.

I mentioned before that I will try to review every other month...I stopped doing it after April :*(

So..what so special about September that I have to start an entry about it?

*Thinking hard*

Actually..it's just an excuse for me to ramble. I have not ramble much lately. KT says nowadays my entries are like advertorials. haha.

It's not easy to maintain a blog la. As you can see..most of my bloggie friends don't update nowadays.

Ok la..there is something I want to highlight about September.

Firstly..we will be in Redang at the end of the month for a wedding. How cool is that. And it's my 1st holiday for the year! DUH...

Secondly..secondly...secondly..I told myself that I will get the Ray Ban in September..so I can use it inRedang. *HEART STOPPED*

Can ah?

I promise..I will spend less on other things.

.. i will eat less in expensive places

..i won't buy anymore bras

..i will onlly Drink in coffee shops

..no more nike shoes >.<

*i better stop*

Serve it Hot Please

Some delicious looking buns at a relatively new outlet caught my eye yesterday. Their specialty seems to be shepherd's pie but I was attracted more to their buns. They looked so nice & tasty. I couldn't resist getting one although I was on the way to have lunch.



Big sigh...



It was as cold as a piece of stone you pick up from the park early in the morning. Wanted to throw it away but didn't wanna waste food :(



WTF!



I hope it's because they forgot to turn on the warmer cos if they continue to serve cold food..especially shepherd's pie...the store will be gone in no time.



I won't reveal the name of the store for now.



Will reveal if when it's really gone :p

INT.P.

As usual, apologies for the not so good quality photos. Yours truly here brought camera this time (without the battery though) -.-



Yupe..it's weekend again. Chill time. Eat, play, eat, play till drop :) I didn't have any plans for Friday night until GHY asked if I wanna go with her to Seri Kembangan to try something good.

Foodies we are. AS GHY mentioned..only me will do these things with her. Ditto.

Imagine I drove all the way through the infamous Federal Highway congestion to reach Mid Valley only to be stuck in another crawl WITHIN the mall unable to even enter the car park. Almost one hour..just to get in...so ridiculous. ..and then drive out again in less than hour to find food only to see that the congestion is still very much there plus it was raining.


Reached & found the stall at Seri Kembangan in about 30-45 mins around 8pm.

Wondering what is it that made us drive al the way??

See below..


FUNNY MENU


We opted for the INT.P (item no.7)


Deep fried large pork intestine

Yea..totally gross.. but..they are crunchy and tasty just like prawn crackers :D

and so...this is what we took so much trouble to come for...





Verdict:
Porride is good. Very smooth. Fried intestines were crunchy and good.
But I find it lacking in other ingredients..only gave us tongues. Wel..we did specify that we don't want blood cube...but what about others??
Cost:
RM15.70 for both big portion of porridge + one addtional small plate of intestine + a chicken thigh+2 drinks (yummy foo chuk yi mai)
Super good value.




Note:
"zhu chap chuk" literally translated as Porridge with Pig's Internal Parts . Yes..sounds gross.
The stall was recommended in a popular chinese food review program ~One Day Five Meals ~ hosted by Angle Wong Chui Ling


Ok..I'm hungry now,..how?

I survived 90 mins of BodyCombat

Connection is very unstable. Irritating -.- I'll keep this short & simple. Don't wanna bore you people with too much about gym & body combat anyway.

To begin with, I really wasn't feeling well at all through out the day. Thought I was going to fall ill. Despite so, I didn't want to miss the body combat challenge class. Nowadays, in fear of H1N1, we gotta allow our temperature to be checked before entering the gym. I was abit worried that I may have a temperature, luckily they didn't check today :p

A typical class lasts 60 mins with 10 tracks. After doing it regularly for more than a year, 60 mins is not a problem for me. This is the first time I come across a challenge class. It will be a 90 mins class! I lost count how many tracks they did but it was awesome. Was telling CC that I will surely be energised when the class begins. I did :D

I enjoyed myself. Class was packed. Full of energy. Instructors were great. I didn't pass out nor walk out. I feel somewhat refreshed :)

but..ankle is on ice now :( It's been a bit sore lately.

Will rest la..next 2 days.

Tired Rambles

Why am I so tired today!
Not that I've done an awful lot in the past few days...Monday didnt do much except for a lil bit of taichi-ing, BC yesterday morning but had quite a late night cos there was a gathering of some sort with the tai chi group. Had to do some volunteer work too..setting up PA system and all. My arms are aching now. Funny how muscles work..little bit of carying stuff only ma..like tat oso can get muscle aches. Only got home ard 1130pm. More tiring then going thru to the normal RPM/BC routines on my normal Tuesdays. And then..I couldnt logon..it's torturing not being able to logon :D..I won't be able to sleep! Only managed to logon at abt 1am..just I was about to go to bed. That explains the crappy post before this *grin*

Anyway...I still don't have much to say now.

Was pretty fresh this morning..thought I had a good rest but..all of a sudden all systems 'crashed'. Haha. There is a special BC Challenge class tonight - 1.5 hours class - I wanna go! Hope I won't pass out :D


~~~~rambling on to kill some time..before I go off for lunch.

Oh yes..some more funny stuff from my funny friends.

SY was on msn with me this mrng telling me that her parents hse in Ampang was broken into. No one's staying there now..only go back ocassionally on weekends.

I accidentally closed the chat box..dang! ...so I don't have the orginal version.. lemme try to re-cap the gist of it:

SY: my AJ house was broken into
ME: oh dear..lose anything valuable?

SY : actually we don't know hahahahah
SY : think the thieves had a headache when they saw the house
SY : for instance..my drawer was ransacked..but I can't remember what I had in the drawer oso

Donate your books ? Or buy from M.A.D.E :)


There will be a charity books & CD sale on September 6th. Location yet to be confirm. Will keep you updated once it's confirmed. The effort is initiated by M.A.D.E (aka Make A Difference Everyday) a small group founded by a friend of mine together with her pals.

A million thanks to PPL who took the trouble to pack and pass over some books to me (I'm collecting on behalf of M.A.D.E.)

Sneak preview on what I've in my car boot got for now.

Massive collection of Taiwanese novels. Some are originals bought in Taiwan! Let me know if you are fan..they are all in my car boot. I can get permission to start selling right away :p So that I can lighten the burden to the car :D





She even gave away some of these to me ..her precious collection of ....err...nail art magazine..I think lar. Very beautiful stuff. Originally priced around RM30-40..if I'm not mistaken. Will probably sell them off at half price (to be confirmed..have to check with my "bosses" :p)


Besides these, there are about 750 books collected by the rest of the volunteers.

I will update soon on the location of the sale..meanwhile give me a shout if you are interested in the above..or if you have any good books or CDs to give away to us.


Quick brief on what MADE is all about:


Make A Difference Every Day (MADE) started out with a small band of friends asking ourselves how we can make a difference in the life of our friend Coreen Paul who's son (John Paul) has been diagnosed with a variant of Dandy Walker Syndrome and Cerebral Palsy.

We have come together to start MADE as a way to remind ourselves that sometimes the world that we all want to change is right next to us – in a neighbour, a friend, a little child.


About John Paul:

This sweet, little baby arrived in the world prematurely with a complication the doctors call a variant of Dandy Walker Syndrome and Cerebral Palsy. The doctors predicted that the infant would live for no longer than 10 hours. Yes, 10 hours!

Today, more than 43,000 hours later, little John Paul continues to defy the odds the doctors gave him at birth. We cannot know for sure whether John Paul comprehends the miracle of his life, because Dandy Walker Syndrome affects the brain in complex and damaging ways. In 2004, an MRI of John Paul’s brain revealed an undeveloped cerebellum and minimal corpus callosum resulting in challenges to integrate function between both hemispheres of the brain. What does that mean? Well, for John Paul, that means he struggles to support himself when he sits, and he is unable to register the concept of body-balance in his brain. He is still unable to walk. He has got under developed motor coordination skills. He is able to hear but his brain takes a considerably longer time to connect words to meaning. And while he has adequate hearing, he is visually challenged...

Needless to say, our friend Coreen’s life has changed dramatically since the arrival of John Paul. Coreen has to work to raise her two children (John Paul has a little sister) as she is a single income earner. The financial demands for John Paul’s Physical, Speech and Occupational Therapy, along with his Special Education needs are in the upwards of RM$2500 a month. As with any parent with a child with such a challenging (if not, consuming) degree of special needs, Coreen sometimes feels that this call to give John Paul all the he needs to live a fulfilling life is beyond her.

In our own, small way, we want to let Coreen know that she is not alone.

Perhimpunan Seni Bela Diri 1Malaysia

I was here...!
Event brief according to the Culture & Arts Ministry:

Acara ini akan menghimpunkan para pahlawan dan mahaguru seni bela diri yang popular di negara kita seperti Silat, Wushu, Silambam, Taekwando, Judo dan Karate.
Acara ini melibatkan 5,000 orang peserta yang terdiri daripada pelbagai jurusan seni bela diri di Malaysia. Acara ini antara lainnya menyeru generasi muda Malaysia supaya mencintai seni bela diri selain dapat memupuk semangat perpaduan dan kegiatan sihat serta muhibbah di Malaysia

*Summary in English - it's basically an event to gather all martial artists in the country. Aprroximately 5,000 participants from SIlat, Wushu, Silamban, Tae Kwon do, etc..a good representation of Malaysia's multi racial society*

Ahem..
me = pahlawan / mahaguru?

Everything is 1Malaysia....our new PM's latest initiative. Does anyone know what is 1Malaysia actually?


Confession : In my 30 odd years as a Malaysian..this is my 1st time stepping on Dataran Merdeka (our very own Independence Square). Above..I must say the SUltan Abdul Samad Building is quite beautiful. That's the...err..'independence clock"?

Two tourists from China were asking me questions I couldn't answer :D What's this building? And that building? Err..previous High Court?


So..I was there..part of the national's martial arts gathering ...because I'm part of the above...*ahem*



I admit..this is my first time being part of something like this..even as a student I've never participate in any gathering or event of this sort. A different experience I must say. Thankfully the weather wasn't very sunny. It became windy when we were performing..so it was actually somewhat 'cool' ...like in the movies ..wind blowing our hair & the kung fu music and all :DDD

Here are more random shots ... for fun viewing..



My cool seniors were chit chatting ...


while....these youngsters were busy preparing..

all...very young except us *blink blink*



Camera man from RTM....it started to rain right after the event ended.


Oh..by the way..the toilets are very clean & well maintained. Impressive.

To Spend or Not to Spend

I'm bored again. When bored..I ramble. When bored...I tend to spend unnecessarily.




I always wonder...do we spend to be happy or do we spend when we are happy?




My credit card bill for last month almost touched 2k! And that's only one card which I normally use for fuel & 'general swiping' a.k.a entertainment & retail therapy.
Fuel expenses about $300 to $400 on average is subsidised.
Some $100 odd are medical related expenses which are claim-able.
An insignificant $20 goes to UNICEF (*shame*).
Some $200 odd for random groceries.
Laptop instalment - $154.
The REST ...are unaccounted for!
Lemme go and take a look again..New Balance, MNG, Robinsons, Robinsons, Car Polish, Car Service, Delicious, Borders, The Curve...tsk tsk tsk....


As for the other card which will due only early next month..current balance stands at 1k ++*FAINT* This card takes care of all yearly insurance premiums (and yes...it's that time of the year -.-), utility bills, World Vision and WWF and some ocassional 'general swiping' as well. *FAINT**FAINT*




So..shall I still spend $500 on my new love...NOT. *sob* *sob*
Ermm...at least not in another one two months :p
Ok..that will cure my love-sick for the time being.
The ultimate cure to unnecessary spending is ...

The tune sounded something like the Wong Fei Hung song ~ hahahahha. I'm serious. No joke. Anyway..for some reasons I'm not sure of ..we only found out all these details on last Sunday. Practiced a little bit on Monday and then tomorrow. Full dress rehearsal at 4pm, Saturday ...an hour before the real thing o.O

Even after max discount it costs a freaking $300 plus...
I found out later that newer models of original Ray Ban comes with a hologram tag now. This promo store offering my new love for $300++ doesn't have a hologram :(
my regular optical shop...offers the same model with a hologram tag at $480!
Original price is $850.
Sigh..I can't stop thinking about it...howhowhowhowhowhow...

Missing One I Never Knew

I find it strange that I'm missing someone I never met or knew before.

Astro allocated channel 110 as a special tribute to the late Yasmin Ahmad. It's so nice to watch good films like Sepet & Gubra again. They also showed random interviews with her and some clips showing scenes of the shooting process while making the films.

I wasn't really a fan of hers and I regret for not being one. Now that she's gone..so unexpectedly...watching her work all over again..listening to her ...leaves an empty space in me. I do really wish we can have her back. Talentime..her latest film is fast becoming a huge success. She spoke so passionately about her intention behind the story that she wrote the script herself...and her new talents whom she fondly referred to as her Babies. How sweet.

Click
HERE to see her entry titled The Talentime Babes where she posted photos of all the main characters that she personally handpicked.

Going through her blog helps me to get to know her even more. Despite her success...she's actually 'normal'.. She jokes jus like any blogger. She leaves naughty comments. She's just normal. Like you and me a regular blogger...

Back in January ..she posted a video of her Petronas commercial in 2009. I'm sure all of you had seen the ad. And I'm sure..we were all like...'oh..another Petronas ad ...oh..so touching indeed..'






Nobody thought that this will be the last of such commercial from her isn't it? Anyway..she posted this in her blog (click HERE) asking cheekily.."if anyone recognised the lead actor in the commercial"

Watch the video first...any idea? I had no idea until I read the comments. There were HUNDRED AND EIGHT comments for that post alone!

First two comments itself answered correctly. The lead actor is Jason from Sepet. Yasmin replied in the 3rd comment ...


haha, yes! the actor AND the bird shop from "sepet".

and you know what? the family's house in the commercial is just across the street from jason's house in "sepet"!

i love ipoh!


Told you..she is just like us.

Some of her other comments in the same thread as follows:


my jason is so clever. the original idea for this commercial was his!

and can you believe it, jason/seong never liked acting! both for sepet and this commercial, i had to literally force him.

"eh, shaddup! act!"


....

Missing you..Yasmin Ahmad. Rest in peace.

I'm still sore

Twelve hours after last rant, I'm still sore.

Sore because I'm stuck with work. There's something that I had to do..but I had no idea how to proceed. Can I rant till lunch time? May be after food I will see some light that will guide me through :D

I have acne! Not one..but a few. So old still get acne 0.0

Didn't ge to do my normal RPM routine on Saturday cos I was the only attendee (excluding the instructor). No way I'm gonna do it alone. It will be so weird. So I went for a swim..thought swimming will be a good enough replacement. Can't believe I still can't complete one lap at one go after all the regular BC/RPM sessions. A friendly man at the pool commented that I have the rhythm..I just need more practice and to be more relaxed when I do the strokes.

Well..I was wrong..I wasn't satified with just working out at the pool..I went back to the gym in the evening for BC. Hehe...

And then BC again on Sunday morning. Got so used to playing badminton in the afternoon...was kinda lost wihout it yesterday. Was also itching for RPM. So..I went for a fix in the evening. I'm a RPM nut!

So..another reason why I'm sore now ...physically.

I'm a Horrible Friend

Today I made a spontaneous decision to call an old friend...just to check if she has time to meet up. I met her last during CNY. She told me not too long ago that the economic slow down had affected her family's business quite significantly. Since..I'm quite free today,,I decided to give her a tinkle...just to see if she's alright. We had brunch...and then went back to chill in her house. At about close to three, the family was preparing to go out for late lunch while I chilled palying with her kids' toys. The hubby asked the elder kid..what does she want to eat? Suddenly...I heard something that 'hit' me like a rock.

The daughter said aloud... " I dunno what to eat la..you asked mommy la..today is her Birthday"

Holy cow!

I was like..oh shit!

I tink my face went pale :D

My friend burst out laughing..


Haha...

Well..I remembered the date few days back..and kept telling myself that I shall send her a wish. But today,..it toally slipped my mind.

What to do..my brain stops functioning on weekends.

I'm such a horrible friend...

By the way....here's how my bruised arm looks like today..
