Selamat Hari Merdeka!

Malam ini saya merdeka daripada pemakanan sihat. Baru sahaja makan seperti Raja Naga. Saya memesan pelbagai hidangan dengan penuh semangat kerana yang bayar adalah bapa. Emak menggeleng kepala tetapi penuh kagum melihat seronoknya saya makan. Alasan saya 'Takpe kakak minum Coke Light, zero sugar zero calorie'. Abih yang brownie dengan aiskem sebesar muka tu apa kebendanya? Hahaha. Takpelah 2 hari lagi nak puasa. Saya berazam untuk membuat senaman ringan setiap hari di bulan puasa untuk tahun ini. Harap berjaya.

Esok ingin berfoya-foya dan makan lagi. Oh nyaman......

bujang dan kebuluran

hari ini saya memasak. biasa-biasa saja. resipi pendek pandai-pandai sendiri mi goreng tomyam. tak mau lah saya berkata panjang lagi. yang penting, saya telah mencampur telur yang sudah sizen ke dalam masakan itu dan makan tanpa segan silu. habis makan semangkuk besar barulah terasa tekak dan sistem pencernaan bergelora melawan graviti.

ya, semua telah kumuntahkan kembali. air oren yang diminum untuk mengawal rasa tidak senang itu juga keluar dengan gembira seperti arus laju di gelongsor dalam taman tema air. perbuatan tidak bekerja ini agak sukar. sukar mencari makan. jika tidak dengan wang rm5 sahaja dapat menyelesaikan segala masalah kebuluran tatkala matahari tegak di atas kepala. kini walau wang berkarung-karung tidak menjadi magis muncul masakan enak sedulang besar apabila berada di dalam di rumah. masalah juga menjadi semakin kusut apabila anda sebenarnya baru bangun tidur seperti tadi dan malas bertatarias untuk ke kedai makan menapau.

dah lepas ni takmo masak lagi. pegi mcD depan rumah je.

BOIKOT DAPOR!!!!

nota kaki: sebenarnya selepas diperiksa dengan betul, telur yang baru dibeli emak/bapa pada malam tadi sebenarnya berada di atas kaunter di dapur dan belum mengganti yang lama dalam gobok air batu. saya lalai dalam pemerhatian. mungkin akibat malas memakai kacamata siang tadi. aaaahh.

i'm feeling gassy and itching to write (eh???)

Tidak, i am not gonna discuss gastrointestinal systems or any colonorectal discomfort after having those huge glasses of cold green tea at Sushi Zanmai tonite. It was an awesome get-together with my old kawan-kawan from uni/residential college - ya, saya budak agak skema yang tinggal di kolej/hostel dari Asasi sampai habis belajar but that was fun fun fun.

Despite the sloooooooooooow service I'm pleased with the sushi platters. Not my beef rice though. Apa tah nama dia, nuki yuki koki or something. While waiting (forever) for our food there was a lot of bitching about our jobs. So I have quit my job, Ju-Li just tendered her resignation (and currently being woo-ed by the bosses so she stays), Mei Wah's determined to play her cards right at year-end appraisal and Ming Shiang feels like trying something really different. The world is full of peeps who have had enough from their jobs and bosses, yeay!

ini 4 orang dulu-dulu organise pertandingan catur antarabangsa masa kat universiti tawwww... how dorky were we back then? hehe.

Wong Yuen Meng, Tan Koh Pek and Saim Yong Harng: shame on you for not showing up! You missed out on all the gossips huhuhu....

Also today, a man named OyetT just started his own musings page. Dear all, please welcome a new brother into this (cult) throat world of blogging. Guide him, teach him, let the young one have faith that the this won't fail him. Go to 'Cerita untuk today is...'

Aku tak mampu mengawal diri..oowwwhh!

Saya benci Benefit. Hampir setiap hari menghantar first dib pasal barang-barang dia yang best itu. Tapi mungkin salah saya juga kerana telah mendaftarkan diri untuk mendapat newsletter - tiada paksaan di sini. Dan hampir setiap kali juga saya terasa cam nak order. Kalau order direct, saya jimat banyak tapi saya juga harus mengorder minimum USD100 untuk menikmati tawaran penghantaran antarabangsa percuma. Dan konfemnya kalau dah naik syeh meng-add to cart mesti saya belanja lebih USD100. Saya pernah melalui situasi itu. Dengan status tak keja ni saya harus menahan gelora hati.

Hari ini mendapat update mengenai berus-berus yang 'harus' saya miliki. Saya tak mau semua, nak satu 'atau dua tiga' je. Mungkin boleh mempengaruhi Cik Myra untuk membeli bersama-sama bagi mendapatkan penjimatan yang dimaksudkan. Sementelah (whoaaa big word!) saya juga ada kod untuk tambahan diskaun 10% bagi pembelian yang baru secara online hasil daripada pembelian terdahulu. Ini bagus bukan? Kita harus bijak berbelanja!

Lihatlah dunia berus-berus chomel ini!

Jika kamu juga berminat untuk mengorder bersama-sama saya dan menumpang diskaun, sila hubungi adiepot@gmail.com ye? Marilah kita mengamalkan sikap perbelanjaan bijak yeah!

saya diteg...

4. makanan kegemaran anda

Ini mengikut musim. Jika berperasaan gundah gulana roti kosong dan air kosong (atau tak makan langsung) mencukupi. Jika hepi segala mak nenek pun boleh jadi feberet. Tapi semua aplikasi pisang amat saya gemari. Pisang goreng, pisang rebus, lepat pisang (nyam nyam), pisang sira, pisang togel makan mcm tu saja, pisang caramelised dgn aiskem vanilla (oh heaven...), susu kocak pisang, pisang pisang pisang.....

5. warna kegemaran

Mengikut musim juga. Anda boleh lihat melalui kaler baju yang dibeli pada satu2 masa. Tapi biasanya kaler hijau jarang saya tolak tepi. Ini telah dibuktikan oleh Cik Myra masa bersoping di Bandung.

I LOVE MUKHRIZ

MUKHRIZ LATIF that is. Go to http://www.mukhrizlatif.com for beautiful pics. And for an earful of Laila's Lounge's Mawar Khayalan in the background. Yep, really beautiful combo people ;)

Nothing stops the candidsyndrome clan. Dem. I wonder if Mell can set us up on a blind date. Haha orang tua gatalousity has kicked in!

And I'm loving this song.

Sud yerself up with prime time drama!

I feel very Meredith right now. Totally channelling the Meredith. And he is so doing the Derek (minus the McDreamy external factor). I feel like there's a Rose in the picture and there's definitely a Finn Dandridge here. The only thing missing is the whoring around among friends and colleagues. And the ex-wife (well that's a relief).

It's scary that I find myself identifying so well with Meredith Grey. How can I not be? She goes to work without makeup (like me). The obvious eyebags (like me). Goes on and on with her work trying to prove something that she isn't sure of but she thought she is (like me, although I've recently quit my job that I secretly miss). Friends with pretty fucked-up issues, not unlike her, but proves to be a strong support system to her life (like me). Most significantly, half the time her relationship is screwed up (SO-hoho like me). It's also scary that after each time I went on a marathon spree my love life became a mess. What, is this like bad (soap) karma?

I can't wait for Season 5 to air in two weeks - meaning I'm limewiring it the immediate it's up for grab. I'm an addict and I am not ready for rehab just yet. Arrgghhhh aaarrrgghhhhh aaaaaaaaaaarrrggghhhhh!!!!!!!

And you. Just admit that deep down you believe that you're the real life Hiro Nakamura. Or Inspektor Mazlan. Hah. Hah. Haaaaaaaaahhhhh.

I still have ramai kawan.

Happy birthday Fox!

Vegetarian restaurants can have extensive menu. Not bad, but the place could do better with the dishes.

Fixing the phone line = RM150. According to bapa tiada resit diberi. Haruskah kami terasa sudah kena con oleh budak2 contractor itu? Lahabau punya contractor Telekom.

3 guys, 2 girls and a kopi place on a friday nite means:

1. Not arriving on time as usual.
2. Gosip-gosip liar (current and lapuk).
3. Going down memory lane reminiscing the joys of youthful time. This can sometimes be painful, aaaaahhaaaaa.........
4. Confessions of 'aku tak suke ko masa skolah dulu'.
5. The ultimate 'singles bonding'.
6. Therapy - coping with the recent loss of used-to-be single friends to marriage and silently wondering who's next.
7. Scanning the crowd not to pick up hot babe/dude alerts but for the assurance that these people are just like you - over 25 and single. Signals are currently pretty good.
8. A minimum of one bathroom trip.
9. Panggilan keramat oleh bapa selepas jam 12 tengah malam.
10. Pemanduan litar lumba untuk pulang ke rumah sambil neves memikirkan alasan kepada bapa. Social mobility gets harder as you age (obviously at my end, not his).

Emosi

Streamyx hancur. After 2 days of waiting apparently it's my phone
line. So another ticket was opened and i need to do more waiting.
Later sure kena charge seratus lebih lagi for new cabling yada yada.
Hoh benci betul. I'm a penganggur okeh??

I have a job offer and i'm not doing anything about it. I dont know.
Tak ada mood. With the series of unfortunate events happening at the
moment, i am unsure if working is a good idea. But i need $. How?

I feel like i'm getting better at putting up a show. 'Make like happy'
is the way to go. Whining is tiring and i bet it tires people too. So
there, make like happy. But it's good, kinda influence the mind to
realise that no matter how shitty things get there's always a little
peek of sunshine behind the drawn blind (i am not doing the curtain
thing at the mo'. trés chic eh? ehem ehem).

One person has really disappointed me. It's bad, but i'm just gonna
say 'sod it!'. One versus the lot that loves me and of whom i love
dearly too. So 'sod it you who hurt us!'. Fug i'm rambling like a
drunk old spinster. Baiklah beta berhenti merapu di sini. Satu malam
tidak tidur. Perut semakin lapar. Dalam gobok air batu ada nasi goreng
usa tak habis. Hoh...mari makan!

No Monday Blues Today Thank You!

Need I say more? Huhahuhahuhahua...

A day in the life of a Penganggur

Bandung trip. CANCELLED!!!!

Tickets i bought in February sudah burnt. I feel jinxed. One travel mate already flew off to that bloody faraway country. Another got held back by his encik boss. Same thing happened the first time, but I was lucky that two others joined me at the last minute. If it were up to my adrenaline rush of being unempoyed, I would've hopped on the plane at 9.50am today, ALONE, okeh? Benci benci benci. Rugi duit. I want to distro, huwaaaaa....

Since the Bandung trip had to be called off, my plan was to wake up waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay past 10am.

This was disrupted at 7.15am, a reminder was 'delivered' to me for the gazillionth time that I need to collect the Kemby's road tax. Pored over a magazine till 9.30am and passed out again till 10.30pm. So I guess this was semi-accomplished.

Collect phone charger from ex-employer's office - left it in a hurry yesterday.

This trip had to be cancelled for I took my own sweet time at brunch while watching 'Are You Smarter Than a Fifth-grader?'. Aaahh..the joy of re-runs on morning telly. So yeah, I didnt have enough time to stop by the office and settled for a RM10 car charger from the neighbourhood kedai top-up on my way out.

Weight training was scheduled for 4pm.

Couldnt find any clean sports bra (kantoi lama tak buat laundry). Thought of getting one at MV since I planned to drop by the office. Both goners, and I retreated to Burger King for a wholesome double mushroom swiss set instead, heheh.

I believe that tomorrow promises more adventures for jobless me. Maybe I'll cook. Maybe I'll make an extra batch (or two) of chocolate fudge besides the one I'm making for an, ehem, customer. Maybe I'll drag my lazy bottoms to the gym. Maybe...I'll just nap all day long :D

AdiePoTT being positive on the endless possibilities of being unemployed

(woohoo! woohoo!)

Finally...

As at 5.30pm today, I am now officially UNEMPLOYED.
