The Big Five O

National Day celebrations are in full swing. Buildings lit up. Flags in ever conceivable size and shape. Spotlights blaze through the night sky. Masjid Jamek is now carnival area. Food. Glow sticks. People are arriving in droves. Roads close. Cars stall. At Dataran Merdeka, a malay guy sings Peng You at full blast and with much gusto. I'm hauling my ass home. Happy Fiftieth, Malaysia.

dalipods Swiped from axb500 . Inspired by Janvier and Queer Ranter, I have decided to do a song list guessing game of my own. Initially, I had wanted to follow the original format, but then I noticed that most of the songs in my play list, I can't find the lyrics to. So Plan B. Maybe if I sample the start or chorus of each song and upload it ala the MyFM game. Wait a minute-- that'll include editing, finding a suitable hosting site, and time ( which I lack! ). Crap. So I have decided to just publish the answers and hopefully with it, you can decide for yourselves what a weirdo I am in terms of music taste. Skater Boy - Avril Lavigne Puteri Ledang - Noraniza Idris Al Mostafa - Zmiya Solitude - Karunesh Future Proof - Massive Attack Diesel Power - Prodigy Spring Song - He Xu Tian Swordsman Theme Song - Sam Hui The Mystic's Dream - Loreena McKennitt Ice Cream - New Young Pony Club Bhajans - Sheila Chandra Urami Bushi - Meiko Kaji Zhui Lang Man De Shi - Zhao Yong ...

Great Lengths

angel Swiped from dro!d . It's amazing when we think about the amount of trouble we would endure to do something that we love. If your significant other stays in Klang and you happen to shack up in Kelana Jaya, it's never too far. "Just a couple of tolls" , you would say. But when things go sour, or you just aren't interested anymore, "Ei, for once why don't you take the bus over" would not be surprising. Ditto for many other things. Humans lose interest rather quickly, but some things are quite hard-wired , as I mentioned before. Heh. This was the case on third day of KH's visit ( the 2nd day was intentionally ommitted because it was family day for both of us ). But before that, let me backtrack to the lunch I had with his friend, Oreal, and her boyfriend Friese. Quite the golden couple. Oreal's fair with a curvaceous body, whilst Friese has a good build and he even wore a knitted shirt with a plunging neckline (!). Real nice peopl...

Photo-0155 Swiped from williamnyk . Today, I present all of you a rare book review: Title: Marriage Technique Author: Drs. Rai & Airi Publisher: Kiran, India Year: 1964, 7th Edition Price: MYR3.00 FYI, this book has been lying in my parents' drawer for ages. Some years back ( after the death of my dad ), my mum was cleaning out the drawer and she found this. She promptly handed it to me. "Err......" As you can see from the picture, it's all brown and I'm sure you can guess it smells funny. The book is still in quite good condition as the silverfish had spared it. Here's the publisher's note: All the scientific sex knowledge of the world, concerning arried people, has been compressed into this single pocket book... This book is scientific without beng technical. It is written in a simple style so as to be intelligible even to the lay reader... "Welcome, visitor. To the weird world! Go-slow" What the?! To get a better idea, here's ...

Keep Things Groovy

Photo-0148 Swiped from williamnyk . It had been 3 months or so since KH came back to KL. It was his mum's birthday and his brother's convocation, so it was apt for him to return home. That and of course it was his turn for a conjugal visit. Hehe. Anyway, we both had our commitments to spend time with family, so we had to schedule things carefully. On Friday, I took half day off to spend time with him. We did the most mundane of things, but at least we got to spend it together. After lunch, he headed out to Central Market to meet me. "We gazed at each other from afar. The longing in our eyes were evident. KH ran through the street towards me, dropping the bag in hand. With the wind blowing in our hair, we met halfway in a deep embrace. We kissed deeply and passionately. Our hands.... CUT THE TAPE. Well nothing like that obviously. We were just happy to see each other. We walked side by side. Giggling as we went along. With the sun beating at our brow, the laptop we...

0535_870610-14-27-ANN-fs Swiped from lucien fp05 . Some months back, my ex-F6 classmate got married. WK's the name. For some reason, SK calls him "Dad". Some kind of pseudo-Electra Complex?! At first, I was supposed to attend the wedding with SK, but since she flew off to Germany, I used it as an excuse not to go. Not to say that I was exceptionally close to the guy, but he's an OK guy and I buy facial products via his wife with a hefty employee's discount. Definite Brownie points there. Anyway, SK and I were supposed to treat him to dinner since we both skipped his wedding. But it turned out to be a failure, like the whole Chia and Kiat fiasco in Singapore. WK invited a whole bunch of other ex-classmates, some whom I have not seen in 8 years. What happened to you William?! I wouldn't dare to tegur you if I saw you! I don't think I've changed THAT much la. I didn't eactly shed my geeky image. I'll just call it a little touch up. Anywa...

Photo-0146 Swiped from williamnyk . After a hiatus of 3 months, I finally went for my swim with SK. I was worried that I had forgotten how to swim. That my movements would be awkward and I'd forget how to breathe. Well, I didn't forget. I guess it's like riding a bike. But I wouldn't know about that. Perhaps it's like sex? Yeah, I guess one would never forget. But then, swimming is not as hard-wired as sex. :P. Anyway, I only swam for like 40 mins before I felt like I had no more thrust. It was like I was static in the water. My spindly arms and legs had called it a day. The kids were also getting rowdy and a pair of little girls were giggling at SK and I the whole time, so we decided to leave. We headed to MV to have dinner with a friend at Kim Gary . The place was packed as usual. Waiter: Smoking or non-smoking? Moi: Non-smoking. Waiter: We have an opening at the smoking section at the moment, do you mind? Moi: Is anyone smoking there at the moment? Waite...
