what am i actually into?

very rarely that i would buy books that i plan to. it's always the case of heading down to that nice bookstore and grab a title (or more) that catch(es) my sight. sometimes i'd have a case of emotional episode at the office and somehow clothes no longer console moi and yes, i choose books. blame it on the weekend library outings when i was a lot younger (this translates into 'please blame my parents').

everybody who's ever nestled in my comfort zone knows that i'm a wreck at handling romance. at the moment i'm at the stage of being a total biatch comtemplating ending a loooooooooong term thingy that i have with you-know-who and also (comtemplating) pursuing new-found crushes. i totally fail at both. the latter, mostly. (this must be the age thingy. i hate being ancient.)

oh yeah, back to books. it's kinda dificult to explain how paras 1 and 2 above are related. anyway, shortcutting it all, i knew i had to get "he's just not that into you" yesterday - and pronto.

See excerpt


told a friend (whom i think is in dire need of "she's not that into you") that it can look rather stupid to spend X much on a self-help book on romance of all things but i need to get myself sorted. now that i'm done with the book, it feels a little sad that i did all the crappy DON'Ts many years ago to secure you-know-who for moi and now that you-know-who has well-reformed i'm doing the same things he did to me then. man, i'm a walking disaster alright.

is there still hope for selfish lunatics like moi? greg behrendt says "Don't waste the pretty". what if the *pretty chooses to go wasted while knowing that 10 years down the road she may be mourning for mr. shoulda-woulda-coulda?

very scary....

*for the record, i'm not implying that i regard myself so highly to call moi 'pretty'. honestly. you know what i mean.

when one simply snaps

last weekend was supposed to be, errrmmm....eventful? did not turn out to be so. the resort sucks big time. apparently everyone at the office thinks so too. how can you not tell me earlier nooooooooooo!

anyway, there was a lot of waiting involved. i snapped a lot of pics out of boredom.



What KL is to me.

bukit tinggi. (tinggi ke?)

An Ode to the Kids :)

It doesnt look like yours truly will get any better at photography. Darn. Perhaps I'll just snap, snap, snap and concentrate more on the captions.

Yep. *Shalt divert thy attention elsewhere...hehe

*my obviously failed attempt at ye' ole lit.

Sugar HIGH

If you're a mall rat, Mid Val is a no miss. Especially at year-end and now that MNG's having the end-of-season sale. And they have the best Xmas deco. Yep, delicious delicious deco. See the humongo lollies below? Yum....


(i think this pic's nice. me no professional but me likey likey this piccie heeee...)

But even the abundance of lip smackin' artificial confectionery can't entice us Malaysians to buy truckloads of candy canes.

Ya, asam tahi telinga tu jugak yang korang cari hahahaha...
Aku suka ini uncle! ;P

out of hibernation


whoa nelly, it's been aeons since my last entry! simply said, i dont have time. TIME. TIME. TIME. and i have been guilty of not having time to focus less on a certain activity that could dictate my future but at the same time could jeopardize what i have held on to for long.

i'm approaching the big 2-6 in less than 2 months time. yet i still choose to be the loony old me in front of people. is it just a facade? because i can be really mean and nasty especially to those closest to moi...

unknowingly to the "lord of mighty research", i spoiled his pic. hehe...

it's nice to look happy so that people are pleased.
