This Useless Post

The last time I updated my blog was on the 1st of September, 2010 and that was 13 days ago. This useless post will tell you what I’ve been up to since that day and why I am being such a jacka$$ for not updating this blog. Not that it is an obligation to update anyway.

I just got myself a domain and a hosting thanks to Exabytes. Been thinking of moving this blog to a dot com for some time now and am glad this is gonna happen soon.

Problem is, since the blog is gonna be powered by Wordpress, I am having difficulties finding the RIGHT theme for my new blog. I need a REALLY COOL DARK THEME and I can’t find it! Yes there are hundreds and thousands of themes on the internet but trust me, I’ve been in and out of sites offering free themes and yet, I have found none to my liking! I tried matching light-colored themes to my blog but nah, I’m all gloomy and emo so it doesn’t work that way.

So there you go. I am basically annoyed that I can't find the right theme though I've decided on a theme yesterday. Am not satisfied, but that's all I have. I can create my own theme but time is simply jealous of me.

And yeah you can say it’s difficult to please me.

On another note, I guess I have not wished my Muslim readers Selamat Hari Raya but I can still do it right since “Puasa sebulan, Raya pun sebulan!”. LOL. It’s the fourth day of Raya and traffic this morning is still awesome. Left Shah Alam at 7.25a.m and arrived at my office in Kerinchi at 7.50a.m. So you guys can take the extra leave until the end of this week. I approve all your leaves! Haha!

Anyway, before I start talking nonsense (like this make any sense, duhh), I would like to wish Selamat Hari Raya to all my Muslim readers and bloggers. As much as you ask for forgiveness from your friends and family, remember to forgive them as well. Don’t hold grudges too long.

Life is short and life is so temporary.

p.s. I'll be moving soon so keep your eyes on the next post!

CNY Break

Today is Wednesday; and I am experiencing the Wednesday Blues. How about you? Oh, you’re still on holiday? You memang lebey! Hukhuk..

Anyway, I hope it’s not too late to wish Happy Chinese New Year to my Chinese aunties, uncles, cousins and Malaysians. I hope that the Year of Tiger will bring more joy and prosperity, great health and ggrrrrreat fortune!

And more thanks to Chinese Malaysians; we have two public holidays dedicated for them, thus giving me more time to enjoy the long-stretched-weekend! Ehehehe…

Now here’s to share with the world what I did during the CNY break.


Ome got Engaged!

Congrats babe! Sorry we were ALL late. Blame it on the boyfriend, please. Heh.

She is not Ome.

She is not Ome either.

Here’s Ome. No, not the one with the flowers again! Haha!

Fireflies Kg Kuantan

Before heading back to KL from Kuala Selangor where Ome’s engagement took place, we stopped at Kg Kuantan to watch fireflies along the riverbank. At RM 40 per sampan (max. 4 person, but kids can nego-nego lah), you get to watch thousands of fireflies flashing their lights in a synchronized manner. It’s like watching hundreds of flashing Christmas trees.

They; who enjoyed the most.

The fireflies are such quite creature. It felt so calm to be WITH them. No words can describe how I felt that night. Not even Owl City’s lyrics! It was just an innocent feeling. Aah, I’ll leave it up to your imagination.


Surf Bike in Taman Tasik Perdana

It was a boring Monday morning when the boyfriend suggested that we go for a movie. Since the GSC online ticketing was not available temporarily (server always down eh!), we made our way to Berjaya Times Square only to be disappointed that the movie tickets for Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief was sold out. What a waste of our parking fee!

Disappointed and annoyed that we have not been able to watch ANY movie together for the past one month or so, we finally decided to kayaking in Taman Tasik Perdana. But upon reaching the lake, we changed our decision and settled for the surf bike.


It was fun and a great work out for the lazy bumps! LOL!


Sg Gabai Waterfall, Hulu Langat

This trip was totally UNPLANNED of. My butt still hurts from sliding down the rocks. Haha!



So, how was your Chinese New Year break?

Thaipusam

What a late update. But, it's never to late to wish Happy Thaipusam to all my Hindu family and friends, and Happy Birthday Lord Murugan.

I did not follow the chariot procession this year because it fell on a working day, but we went to Batu Caves on Saturday to join in the celebration. It was a really hot Saturday morning, crowd was pouring in, chantings were high, and DSLR was at every corner. But I wasn't carrying one. Haha.

Was hoping to see some Indian rempits and Indian mak nyah with their anak ikan tapi tak jumpe. Haha. Ok, that was mean.

But seriously, I found many last year! Erk.

* Shoot, what a short update. And lacking the emotion to blog.

February 14, 2009

This day may be argued by most religions, but I always think of it as a day chosen in a year, where couples, married or not, celebrates with the rest of the world. If you chose another day, you'd be the loneliest couple on earth! Ahaa..

I never had anything special on this day before. Probably because I don't have a special someone to celebrate with. I hoped for one last year, but it never came. My ex didn't think it was ANY big deal.

Come this year, I thought, "Heck, he might not care either. Oh well, I don't want to care!"

But I never expected for this to come!

I never had anything given to me on Valentine's day, so thanks kamu! I can't believe I got these lovely cupcakes when earlier that day, I was actually discussing with Pejah about cupcakes! It is flattering! Huhu~

Thank you again kamu. Penang is a good place for a weekend getaway. It was spontaneous, yet it is one of our best moments spent together. I love that place where the Neo guyz left us. It was really nice.


* I don't like people forcing me over and over again when I have declined to accept. It puts too much pressure - to please you or to stay firm with my decision. I hate it. Note that: HATE it.
* It's been too many days. The pain still strikes, but who am I to complain... Shut up, Jen.
* Next time, we shall take the bus. Else, I'll DIE in guilt. Thanks to you.
* I hope you don't regret it. I know I'm almost regretting it...

Chinese New Year

I'd like to take this opportunity to wish HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all my Chinese friends, my aunt's family in Kuantan and my uncle's family in Kuching. I definitely miss the CNY celebration in Kuching because that's the BEST place to watch firework displays when the clock strikes midnight. Nowhere else in Malaysia can be compared to the night scene in Kuching on CNY's eve. I hope Bongkersz would agree with me. The streets get sooo smoky that you have to pull over to the side and wait for about 10-15mins to be able to drive again. Gosh, it sure was lively!


This time around, I'm celebrating my CNY holiday at a dreadful place, repeat, DREADFUL place. Where? Let's just say, if I don't visit my relative here, they'd be saying awful things about me. Yeahh, that's the attitude of typical Indian aunties for you. The sin of NOT visiting your relatives is equivalent to murdering your neighbour's cat (so I've concluded from observing my Indian relatives gossiping).

Anyway, to kill time, I'd probably work on getting materials for this site. It's been two months since I bought the domain and NOTHING is being done to it. I can't even get thru the Cpanel since I've forgotten the password! Huhu. Aaaa, no worries, I've jot it down somewhere... at home... Oit Sepeket, bila mau diskusi??

* Gotta ring my uncle in Kuching. I miss the ronda2 we do at night. Haihh~
* Sorry Chee Eng, I can't make it - again. When will we meet again? Hopefully not as a doctor and your patient! Ahax.

Diwali

First and foremost, HAPPY DIWALI TO ALL MY HINDU FAMILY AND FRIENDS! I hope you had a great celebration yesterday, and maybe still is having a blast to this hour. Maybe tomorrow too. And the next day. And perhaps the next day. Also the weekend.. Okay, that's a lil' too much! Haha.

I wish I could have given the festive greeting yesterday, but I did not have much time to do a cyber card the day before. Huhu. Even this cyber card I have here has a touch of plagiarism! Adeii.


Anyway, Diwali celebration went well. The only visitor I had is my martial art Master. Thank you for coming Sir, even uninvited. Haha. Speaking of that, I don't mind if you were uninvited, because it shows that you had thought about me, and that's what most important. Cheers.

Owh, he was MY only visitor. The rest that came were friends of my dad, mum and brothers. Oooh, it shows how LAME a friend I am, that no one bothered to show up at the doorstep! Nahh, not really. I'm just losing all my friends in Kuantan to big cities like KL and Penang. (A comforting pat on my back)

Going back to KL tomorrow. Watching High School Musical 3 on Wednesday night? Fingers crossed.

Raya Holiday

Scene 1. Take 1.

(stops a cab)
Me: LRT Kerinchi?
Cabby: Bole.
Me: Trime kaseh.

(gets into the cab. switches off mp3 player.)
Cabby: Balik raye bile?
Me: Erm, tak balik raye.
Cabby: Owh, ye ke. Kampung kat mane, dik?
Me: Saye asal *******.
Cabby: Tahun ni tak pulang beraye la ek.
Me: Err...uncle, saye bukan Melayu. Saye *****. Heh~
Cabby (looks back from the mirror, sounding surprise): Hah?! Ye ke? Sori dik, saye ingat Melayu.
Me: Takpe. Rutin harian dah ni.


Scene 2. Take 1.

(walks towards the lift. smiles at a lady waiting for the lift door to open)

Lady: Tak balik raye?
Me: Errr..saye bukan Melayu kak.
Lady: Hah?! Ye ke. Nampak macam Melayu lah, dik!
Me: Tak lah. Saye bangsa *****. Tp ader mix la kak. My mum orang ******.
Lady: Ohh..patut la..
Me: Saye duduk kat umah yang ujung skali tu (pointing finger towards an end). Duduk ngan my aunty.
Lady: Your aunty, ****** ke?
Me: Err..ya.
Lady: Laaa..rupanya. Tapi memang tak cam lah adik ni orang *****!
Me: (smiles and gets into lift)


There goes. For the past one week, I'm being harrased with the same question over and over again. BEWARE. Looks are deceiving. Hehe.

Anyway, with the Raya heat wave ON, I would like to wish my dear Muslim friends a HAPPY EID UL FITR. Selamat pulang ke kampung and selamat kembali ke ibu kota. Safe journey.

Aidilfitri Card

A few of my friends had been sending e-cards for Aidilfitri. One after another, they start designing their own cards. Some even used Paint to design! One friend who was not aware that the others were designing their own had asked me to come up with a card for her. And I did, voluntarily. I am not satisfied with the result, but this is my best. Sorry Bit, aku sgt2 serabut mlm ni.
