This gonna be another random update.

Yea, I like to be random these days.

Anyway, had a great dinner last night and I bet it was waaay greater for C*** coz a bunch of models from the Baz*ar's private party came over to sit at the next table.

I swear C*** eyes(along with the waiters) almost pop up due to their hmmpp..extreme fashion obscenities (they are better off without the flimsy dresses, like yea,even with em on they looked almost naked to me, I bet they won't mind walking around naked) but they turn me off a bit(kenapa saya pulak yang turn off? I'm not the guy here.) when they opened their mouth to speak. They sounded like a bunch of minah-rempit.Oh mother.

I'm going home for a loong weekend tomorrow. Yea, since I'm semi-busy and not super busy next week, decided to take a day off so I could stay in Kedah a bit longer to attend a schoolmate wedding.

Got myself a new eyeliner and it smudges like hell. I'm already looking like a panda now. I guess only Stila and Dior's eyeliners are made for me. *sighs* There goes my plan to be a lil cheapskate.

I dreamt that something bad happened to my car last night,does it mean that I'll get a new one? hehe. Wishful thinking.

Lil brother is in KL, he came over with a cousin(which was shortlisted for an interview at the UM*). I bet they'll spend their time goofing around during the weekend. Isn't it lovely to have a looong 3 months break? I didn't get to experience those whilst I was in school. The longest was 4 weeks. Tsk tsk.

I'm going crazy over Queen - Love of my life song. It's an old one I know, but it's just somewhat sappy and nice. I especially love the piano on the background.Ohhh!!

Just realized that I need to prepare something for tomorrow's meeting.

I'm off now.

Whilst I was searching for the right opening speech(speech? :P) for today's post. An email alert blinked on YM and flashed the new email subject which read

"***** invited you to join myJodoh*net"

Well darling, I would like to think that I found my jodoh already, thank you very much - even if I didn't, I wouldn't be the one joining such portal, it sounds so..hmpp..desperate? I would rather ask the ever so helpful aunties & friends of mine to find one for me. That's what families & friends are for ya know?

Anyway, that's not supposed to be the highlight of the day. I'm done talking about jodoh, at least for today that is.

First of all, I would like to say hi to the blog stalker in the office( now I'm starting to sound like I'm giving a speech.heh). *waves* Feel free to read on but don't be too surprise, this is just me, perhaps the other side of me that you may not wanna see. So once it gets a wee bit sickening for you, kindly close the IE okie?(Ey!Marilah guna firefox! My blog looks better innit. :P)

Moving on, I'm craving for pasta & battered squid so the ever so understanding and loving and caring and wonderful C*** (Tips 1:bodek lebih sikit supaya segala permintaan lebih mudah ditunaikan. Heck!C*** doesn't need any persuasion when it comes to food) decided that we should go for a fattening dinner tonite at Italiannies, yey!(cue Rod Steward - Have I told you lately playing in the background.)

On a lighter note, the new project is starting to kick in, it feels so good to finally be doing something more..hmpp..serious(?) again. Another project requirement walk-through is scheduled on Friday(and hopefully the development gonna be able to kick off by mid of June) & whilst I'm at it,perhaps I should drop by for a quick meeting with the users of my previous project too.

They are starting to press me for another enhancement already & I got a request log for a bug fix! Ini lah masalahnya bila UAT tanak test betul-betul.Now tetiba one of the search function tak jalan gelabah ayam pulak.hoh. It's great enough that you're not the one that hafta crack your head coding it,so nak test pon malas kah??? Kenapaa?? Tell meeeeee. Tell meee. Okie enough.

Off to finish up the work now.

♥of.losing.&.me.♥



If gaining money is as easy as gaining weight then I would surely be the one with the towering pile of money.

But well, life's ain't that easy. It goes the other way round for me.

Losing money is faarrr too easy compared to losing weight.

You're feeling bloated - then you spend money on one of those detox tea which sadly I'm very keen of. T__T I'm a sucker for teas.

You're feeling kinda plumpy in certain areas(or all over the place) - then you spend money on one of those crappy slimming centre(which I'm yet to try.Thankyouverymuch.) or those anda mempunyai perut buncit? selulit? creams that they advertised on TV.

The list is endless and those come over to us we could make you look better kerana believe it or not rupa adalah segala-galanya companies will never stop trying to press on your desperation and make you feel miserable.

See how they are toying with our mind?

I could safely and surely say that the pressure somehow turned some of us into these pathetic desperados who willing to do everything for the so called perfect image and body.

Truthfully, some of them amuse me to no end. Someone that only weighted merely 43kg whined about her fattening body. Like pbbttt..you're like 43kg and you are whining about being a fatty? Then what about me? Please wait for another 10 or 11 kg then we could whine together, till then kindly shut up.

Owh, if you're wondering. I don't know whether I'm gaining or losing now. The skirts and shirts still fit. The last time I weight myself was during the medical checkup before I started working with the bank which is like a year back. I would surely want to believe that I still weight as much and hope to keep it that way.

Perhaps I should wait and see whether Kakna bebeh gonna scream "Anaaaakk!!!Kenapa dah gemokk? Why????" once she's back in June(which is not very long now) for a confirmation or I could always ask C***, he could be very blunt sometimes. :P

Moving on, I had a fattening weekend(yea, nothing new with that). Story of my life, one fattening weekend after another.

Anyway, I drove to Shah Alam to my aunt's place & later went to my cousin's place for a bbq session which is merely 5 mins away. Had pulut kuning, curry and fried meehoon for starters and few pieces of the barbequed chicken and the sort. Headed back to my aunt's place for Maghrib and a quick shower and later drove back for another round of bbq.

Had lamb which made it very agonizing to sleep regardless the air-con and the sleepy-head after the fun pillow talk with the lil cousin. Sungguh bagus bila semuanya sudah grown up, I like the fact that we could relate on stuff tho it goes without saying that we're related.

Anyhow, I didn't learn my lesson as the cousin asked us to come over for another session of bbq the next day for lunch. I had FOUR, yer empat ekor ikan yang tidak dikenali namanya, but it looked more or less like a kembung, aunt mentioned the name and it sounds like 'pekeliling' or something and a piece of lamb(again & mengalami masalah untuk tidur malam kerana panas again) and I never feel so hmpp..protein-fy?(such word?)

All in all I had loads of fun & the paycheque is in so it's time to spend the hard earned moneh on something.

Back to work now.

Have a great week aight?

Tata.

♥of.routine.&.me.♥



Have you ever feel so accustomed to something that you barely realize that you're doing it?

It's like how I would reach for the toothbrush every morning and start brushing.

It's like how I would drive back from work and the next thing I know, I'm home.

It's like how we would say bismillah before eating(or drinking).

It's like how I would code as if I know em well like the back of my hands.Okay tipu, sometimes stop kejap layan FB or malas or simply stalled. God, gimme more brain cells so that I could be a Java sifu. Terangkan la hati.

I digress.

Owh, where was I?

Yes,we humans do tend to be so engulfed in routines & habits that we don't even notice that we are doing it, aren't we?(Yes, I need to stop pulling my hair off whilst watching TV.)

Not to say that it's boring(but sometimes it is) and the sort coz routines could be good for us ya know? It makes it easy for you to be good at things that you do(Yer mengadap benda yang sama hari-hari memang akan pandai unless you're not paying much attention or suka makan semut). In time, you'll have everything hard-coded in your brain.

The same goes to the roaches in the kitchen that somehow had learned that the sticky trap(that provides the demonstration on the sticky & die routine) that I placed next to the bin is a dangerous territory and whoever that crosses it will trap itself silly and die - so now my hasil tangkapan adelah tidak memberangsangkan. Boleh pulak dia berlari-lari dengan gembira di tepi trap itu but refuse to step ON it.



*shivers whilst imagining their hairy legs*

Hmpp..apekah tiba-tiba lipas pulak, I'm not making any sense.

Pardon moi. It's just that I'm having a pretty mundane week at work so I need to rant a little whilst hoping that it gonna be more adventurous for me once the new project kicks off.

Having to stretch a 2 days work into one whole week is simply hmpp...

agonizing.

♥of.gajah.&.me.♥

C*** called few minutes after I reached home and asked me out for dinner. He came over after Isyak & I was greeted with a bar of my favourite chocolate gajah.

The tantalizing fattening chocolate with whole hazelnuts.

Why can't he be more supportive? I'm trying to lose some weight over here.(Complaint jer lebih tapi sebenarnya suka.Eh tapi apsal satu je? Haritu dapat dua? :P Recession ey? )

Anyway, we ended up at one of our usual makan place, I had my usual nasi goreng kerabu(note:Tidak bermakna diet tapi makan nasi at 9pm) whilst C*** who was feeling adventurous ordered the nasi goreng thai(didn't you have enough of Thai in Phuket already? :p ) which somehow looked like a plate of fried rice drowned in sirap but it didn't bother him much since he was more interested in telling me bout his recent trip rather than eating. T__T

So yea,we had dinner, talked, I got another surprise souvenir, he sent me back home and later talked some more on the phone before bed which included his usual tazkirah. (I'm blessed with a pacar yang suka menceceh. Lucky me. Ini ayat penyata ikhlas bukan synical okie?)

On a lighter note, I still have to qada my puasa asap. Last minute qada-ing(such word?) is never good I tell ya - especially with the hormonal imbalance and all.

On another lighter note, Kakna bebehh!!!, how's your Europe tour goin? Be safe okay? Can't wait to see you next month. Owh rinduuuuuuuu. :x

Back to work.

Tata.

♥of.productive.&.me.♥



C***:"I'm back!"
Me:"You're back!How's the shows?"
C***:"Tak tengok, tak jadi sebab macam scary."
Me:"Owh really?"

Yea, I'm such a thoughtful person that I actually forgot to ask how he is but spontaneously asked about the shows instead. :P

Anyway, I had a rather productive weekend.

Went out jalan-jalan with Zue and she talked me into spending hundreds for mum's silks and moi tudung - only to realized that all of em are in brown. Well?

Scrubbed and re-scrubbed the bathroom for like 7 times until it sparkles.

Got myself involved in cockroaches massacre, there were tonnes of them like you wouldn't believe. The only comforting thing is the fact that they are small else I would have run for my life. You should hear how they hissed when they were dying, I swear I had a hard time sleeping the other night due to my roaches are crawling on me thoughts.

Managed to iron most of the stuff in the wardrobe, so yea no more intense ironing for the next 3 weeks. I hope.

Watched too much tv that my eyes threaten to pop out of the sockets.

Cooked myself a decent meal as I was a tad too lazy to step out of the house - tho someone called and asked me out for lunch & dinner.

Last but not least, I came across the thought that I'll never, like seriously never gonna be able to adapt to the whole alone and independent thing. Independent yes, alone? No. No man is an island, no?

On a lighter note, managing a project for someone is tough work. I thought that being a bossy older sister is sufficient enough to build up all those bossiness but I thought wrong and having a blurry bunch of users do not help at all - like how on earth did you get to be the users and requested for something when you don't even know what you want? So help me God.

Have a great week ya all.

Tata.

This gonna be a random update.

I had a very productive meeting this morning, so productive that I decided to hit KLCC during lunch for another dose of Stila haul- which is sorta weird since I'm not a big fan of makeup but I would be tempted to get them for satisfaction sake, so therapeutic. Seriously.

My guilty pleasure that I hafta hide from C***, else he'll be like

C***:"WHAT? 70 bucks for a pencil??"
Me:"That's what we call eyeliner."
C***:"Sama jerrr."

On a lighter note, the 4wd of mine feels lighter now, I have C*** to thank for that. He was kind enough to come over for lunch and took the car to the nearest service centre for a quick checkup and the bills came up lower than expected too. :D

I have numerous datelines for the next few weeks, I hope that I won't miss anybody's wedding else nobody gonna come to mine(aiceh,cakap macam nak kawin bulan depan :P but yea, wedding attendant works like karma nowadays), I overheard someone saying "Si Fifi(bukan nama sebenar) tak datang pon wedding aku, malas lah nak pegi kenduri dia". God.(mental note: I need 2 brand new baju kurung for the darlings' weddings, white and hmpp..ape tah lagi satu?)

Going out on a date with Zue tomorrow, finally - after countless attempts. It's hard to go out with the darlings nowadays. Attached people are like that, sangat tak available which could be very frustrating, at times.

C***'s off to Phuket tonight(without me, obviously :P). Be safe(sila guna pelampung ketika berenang), don't do anything I wouldn't do okie?

I'm off now.

Have a great weekend okie? I'll be enjoying mine.

Tata.

♥of.far.&.me.♥



How far would you go for someone?

Would you be willing to send them text messages to show you care(& interested) whilst knowing quite well that they (most probably) won't reply?

Would you brace yourself trough a terrifying traffic each and every single day just to get back home in time so you won't be late for dinner?

Would you cut off you own mari berhuu-haaa allowances just so you could save and get them something nice for birthdays?

Would you be working around the clock in order to fulfill someone else's dream?

Would you give em one of your eyes if they actually need one?

Would ya?

Well,I came across the thought last night after having one of those late night casual chat with C*** on the phone.

He blurted out something that took me by surprise (& I reckon he didn't even notice coz he was not trying to flatter me or something.)

I'm undeniably, pleasantly surprised.

Like seriously - I hafta refrain myself from saying "You actually did that for me? Owh well ya know? Indirectly for me. It has my name stamped on it.".

Credit when the credit is due dearest, I'm not even sure if I'd be able to do the same for you but when the time comes, I would absolutely give it a try.

But hey, now I know how far you'd go - which is very far indeed. Thank you. :)

♥of.cars.&.me.♥



Having an engineer pacar who works in the automotive industry actually opened my eyes a little - especially to the fact that whatever (little) knowledge that I have about cars(specifically about maintaining one) is truly not enough.

The other day when he asked what's the name of one of the parts involved in the cooling system whilst saying "apa name benda kat depan tu?"

I hastily blurted "errr..carburetor?" and then realized that I intended to say radiator - but C*** already started to laugh at me like there's no tomorrow whilst saying "carburetor keta mana letak air niii?" and flashing me the you're so hopeless look.

Yea yea, I'm hopeless like that but ain't too proud of it either. Well,that's what the car-savvy boyfriend for isn't it? he he.

Good news is - thanks to C*** - I already got myself an appointment at one of the service center and he will be the one to bring it in for the checkup(which is sadly wayy overdue) for me. Love love.

The downside of it? I hafta fork out more moneh, so bleh for that and owh my car has been clamped outside(kerana ignorance dan tidak membeli parking coupon) so 50 bucks gonna fly off for that too.Sob.

Back to work now.

♥of.mothers.day.&.me.♥

My mum was at work yesterday when I called to wish her a happy Mother's Day and she jokingly added

"Eh,wish jer?"

Okay okay, your gifts are coming soon - as in somewhere in the end of the month. :P

I truly wish I wasn't too busy(& a tad lazy & more creative) else I would have try to make her a nice handmade card or something.

because you're my mum, the best ever, dunia & akhirat.

p/s:I had an eventful weekend if you're wondering. I have tons of mangoes stocked up in the fridge. Guess that I need to find someone to eat it with. :P

♥of.shoes.&.me.♥

My chaotic mix of emotions

If (half of) my emotions could be interpreted in a single image. That hafta be it (for now).

One sec I'm obliviously happy and the next sec a killing me softly blister just keeps on agonizing me(apekah pedihnya terkena airrrrrr or when it brushes against my jeans) - perhaps that's why I'm utterly blessed to be able to dress casually to work, like seriously I couldn't wear a pair of a proper working shoes without having em biting on my feet.




Before someone comes and tell me to quit from being a cheapskate and invest on an expensive pair, lemme assure you that I've bought them all.

No matter if it's one of those pretty elchepo one that I bought on impulse or one of those pair that burned a hole in my pocket.

Again, before someone urges me to get those gel-like padding thing - I already bought em too. Like kenapekah kurang berkesan?

So yea that why I hate meetings(like the one I had yesterday). Meetings call for a proper formal attires + a proper pair of working shoes(which obviously hates me) & I'm so determined to show up with a semi-formal pair of footwear for my upcoming meeting next week.

Why am I starting to be vain over a blister?

It's all because I hafta wash em feet for like 7 times a day during wuduk & shower dan ianya adelah pedihhh & sorta frustrated kerana tidak dapat memakai kasut dengan bahagia.

*sighs*

At least I should be thankful for having em feet? Tho they are wierdly shaped feet.

Back to work.

♥of.sore.&.me.♥



I woke up this morning with a sore right arm. I reminded myself that I didn't get myself involve in any heavy lifting yesterday(cause this kind of sore and throbbing pain usually appear after a series of weight lifting and the sort) but later realized that I had a series of mendukung my cousin's son around the house sessions and the little bundle of joy weighted 8kg.

Yea,he's approximately 3-4 months old and already weight that much and perhaps I should take it as a sign for me to start lifting some serious weight or something ya know? - because the only part of me which never stop working out is the brain and nothing else(okie, perhaps the face muscles too every time I laugh like mad at C*** jokes).

Yer,ciri-ciri seseorang yang malas bersenam di situ and now ever since I drive to work, obviously lah langsung tak bersenam compared to my LRT days - at least I used to walk back and forth to the LRT station previously (tho it's just like 4 minutes worth of slow walk) and what about now?

Now I only walk to the car which is like what? 20 steps away from the elevator?

*sighs*

I seriously need a good health regime and I'm going to start it off with walking.

Sooo..hmpp..C*** darling, lets go to the mall or something and start walking(and shopping and sipping on Juicework whilst we are at it).

Berusahalah!

Owh, have a great week.

Tata.
