Cheshire Cat Swiped from fofurasfelinas . Stolen kisses on my cheek. A silent whisper in my ear. A strong grip on my hand. A reassuring hug when I need it most. A call before I retire for the night. I stare blankly into space. A sloppy grin creeps up my face. PS: Get well soon dear...

Fatty Swiped from bayat . Repetitive Stress Syndrome. Yes, doing the same thing over and over again can be hazardous to your life. Mouse users beware of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Too much tennis, Tennis Elbow. Constant staring at computer screens-- Dry Eye Syndrome. Spend too many hours playing MMORPGs you run the risk of No Social Life syndrome. For those who know me, my eyes are already aged from all the hours in front of the CRT or LCD. Need to carry around my little bottle of artifical tears in case of attacks of burning sensation in my eyes ( kinda like the GhostRider's stare ). To make things worse, I have become the casualty of yet another kind of repetitive action. Guess where.... Too get things out of the way, let me state here that it's not something down south. Blek. I know everyone's disappointed, but I hurt my left thumb this time. The base of the thumb hurts. I was wondering how I had hurt it, then It came to me-- too much sms-ing. When I sms, I hold th

Photo-0069 Swiped from williamnyk . Of course you're all wondering, "Who the fuck is Matthew?!". Well, Matthew is an ex-colleague of mine and I must say that we had kinda lost contact with each other, these past years. We do see each other on our MSN Messenger contact lists, but we never say, "Hi!" or the other generic tegur sapa variants. So, when the other day I suddenly received a missed call from him and a message in my chatbox, I thought to myself, "He's getting married". And it turns out he was. We later arranged for a lunch meet and he passed me the "Red Bomb". Tai Thong Tropicana. Lunch. Wait a minute..... Turns out that he failed to book dinner, so lunch it had to be (wedding lunches normally happen in small towns, but a Shanghai local told me that in China, first wives have their banquets during the day time, whereas concubines have them at night. o.O). It's kinda a blessing actually, I've never been to Tropica

Photo-0070 Swiped from williamnyk . If you've been reading the papers, you'd know that the flood on the 10th of June had been hogging the headlines for a couple of days at least. Well, the dust has kind of settled, figurately, but literally it has not. The flood has left the Masjid Jamek area full of sand and the amount of people kicking it up is quite choking. On Monday ( the 11th ), I went to work like any other day. As I walked out from the Star LRT station I found it strange that the side of the roads were a little muddy and that the McD was boarded-up thyphoon warning style. I shrugged it off. As I reached the Putra LRT station, I found that grass and garbage had been wound tightly at the bottom of the Dilarang Menjaja sign post ( DBKL performs raids every other week, but the traders still come back to ply their wares ). As I walked further towards AmBank, I saw that a part of the wall separating Masjid Jamek and Sg Gombak had collapsed and that the AmBank baseme

Got milk? Swiped from OLD SKOOL Cora . Note: 'Infected' by Lanky Lex. Like some nasty strain of VD, this meme has been making its rounds among the usual suspects and it has finally landed in the dark, dank breeding ground which is my blog. Believe it or not, this is just my 2nd infection. Time to start another round of drug cocktails to suppress future outbreaks. But before that, the symptoms: 4 Jobs I've Had In My Life Freelance Tuition Teacher - I've had 2 students so far, teaching language, biology and maths for peanuts. 1 student stopped studying at Form 3, the other I don't know. Wanna be my student? Electrician's Apprentice - I worked at this job for 1 day. My spindly arms and twiggy wrists were not up to lugging metal light fixtures and scaffolding. At least I contributed 0.0001% to the building of Kuantan's first 'large' mall. Temporary Teacher - See the pattern? I was so into academia back then. I taught add maths and physics to upper se

I was home alone during the weekend again. Mum had once again gallavanted off to Kuantan, following a group of friends who are afficiandos of Senior Citizen Singing Contests. Some are judges. Some are contestants. The contestants run around trying their luck. If you can't win in KL, go to Kulai. If you can't make it big in Kulai, try Kuantan. Masyallah. . Even my sister and bro-in-law went down south to visit the Singapore Zoo and the Jurong Bird Park for some camera work. So, on Friday, after dropping mum off at her friend's place, I went off to my di 's place to join Takashi for supper. Only reached at 9:00pm. All I had to alas perut was a half-eaten box of Lian Bee full moon package from my ex-boss. It had muffins, hard-boiled eggs, gari , ang kee and portugese egg tarts. I just downed an egg and an egg tart. Due to some delays and a minor domestic dispute (:P), we only headed out at 10:00pm. Got to visit Takashi's new place at Bandar Utama. Was really nice.

Stolen kisses at the beach - invisible Swiped from abnogueir . Warning: Mini spoiler ahead. But I guess everyone has watched it already. :P. Having watched Pirates of the Caribbean 3 the other day , one particular part of the story got me thinking. The Curse of Calypso The captain of Flying Dutchman would have his heart cut out and put into a chest. He would be bound to the ship, responsible for ferrying the souls of those who had died at sea. He is only allowed to make port once every 10 years, to be with the one he loved... In the movie, Davy Jones would get down and dirty with Tia Dalma every 10 years. Ditto for Will Turner who gets to shag Elizabeth only once in 10 years. I told KH that I somewhat feel like we're in such a situation. And the great answer I got: Well, you've waited more than 25 years, so what's another decade? Blek.
