Update

So my "fan" is complaining that I have not updated my blog again lately. My last update was in January!?

Gosh I have been so busy it is not funny!

Many things have happened, most of it good! Thank the lord!!

I have resigned from my current company, today is my last day in fact. Am looking forward to two weeks of bliss (somewhat since I am already working for another company during my spare time...). I will be going to Singapore! Yay! Just a short trip, will be visiting some friends!

I am also looking to put in some fittings (namely wardrobe). It is so expensive though, my heart is so bleeding!! Think the kitchen has to wait... Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too expensive!

Just thought of something really funny, thought I would share with you...

So I was having a "conversation" with IKK one night. Peeved, he stomped from the car heading towards home. I live in a condo, so we have to pass through a security door. He reached first but didn't have the card so he stood there waiting whilst I lazily strolled. Next thing you know the door opeend, a lady stepped through the door, took one look at him and screamed in his face.

HAHAHAHAHA.

That was the funniest thing ever!! He didn't think it was funny and was none too pleased...

But all the anger and annoyance from our conversation melted away after that incident.

HAHAAHAHHAHA.

Just too funny!!

I will probably blog again soon... as soon as I find the leisure. Till then, tooo daaaaaaaa loooooooooooo!! Stay safe and be happy!

New iPhone

Just downloaded the blogger app on my new iPhone and am testing it out. So far iPhone has managed to embarrass me with its autocorrect countless times.

My blackberry totally died on its own over the weekend, not even giving me time to save all my contacts so I am left an orphan at the moment.

My dear friends could you kindly PM me your hand phone numbers... For those who have already done so I M truly appreciative.

What a start to the bright new year..

Aging

No one is spared deteoriation of the physical body through the passage of time.

It is but a matter of... time. LOL (pun intended)

I recently met someone through a friend who in turn related back to me the one and only comment he made of me. "She looks old." *HORRORS*

OMG when did I start looking OLD!??!?!!

*sobs in a corner*

All my life I rarely put on make up. Or even dress up. I usually just fit myself in whatever that is comfortable. But with age came the paunch, the slowing down of the metabolism, the drooping of places you don't want to droop due to gravity, the wrinkles where it used to be supple. *sighs*

And the lack of exercise and weight gaining also adds time to the face.

So I have started putting on make up, bother looking in the mirror before I go out and I shall try my best to lose as much weight as I can before I start exercising religiously again.

I vow to do this with DISCIPLINE. That's the most important vow to make as part of my new year resolutions...

So here, the before and after some slab of make up.

Big difference?

Looking back with a smile

Was rummaging through my jewelery box the other day, guess what I found?

My old wedding ring....

Engraved on the underside of the band was the name of my ex husband and the date of our matrimony... September 2005. (For the benefit of those who do not know, we separated end 2007 and officially divorced sometime in 2008/2009) He has a similar one with my name on it... Had rather... am quite certain he would not keep that momento.

Felt awashed with memories, and ironically most of what I remember of him were happy ones. With him smiling and laughing with me. Despite the obvious problems between us as a man and a woman... I actually thought we had a lot of fun together, more like friends. We did have a lot of things we enjoyed doing together, and loads of laughter. We played video games / computer games together a lot! It is a pity we couldn't have remained friends... Similar tastes in food...

But fact of life remains that when a relationship between a man and a woman turns sour, not many couples (or ex in this case) could recapture the friendship that were had before. What more he has someone new (+2) in his life, I guess I can understand how that would have been impossible! I certainly would not want my IKK to be close friends with his ex! O.o

I do wonder though, how my life would have been today if I had stuck it out despite my frustration and unhappiness at that time? If we had stuck it out, we would have been married over 6 years! How time flies... Then again, we had very different ideas of what we wanted in a relationship and the frustration of not being able to communicate with ease made everything... impossible.

Just a random thought...

Thankfully to date, I have never regretted our decision to walk a different path. I think I have grown in many ways... and learnt a lot from him. And from our mistakes together...

I am looking back at him, at us. And I smile. I truly wish him and his well and will pray for their continued happiness. :)

A blog post by an ex

Haven't been updating my blog in ages...

Was surfing the net the other day and I came across one of my ex's blog (long abandoned). I wonder how he is. There will always be someone in your life that you can never quite forget aye? The ex he mentions in his post on Dec 12, 2006 (below) refers to me.

It has been so many years... Think the last time I saw him was in 2008. I hope he is well. I have not made any amendments to his narration (though the OCD me is itching to correct the typos).

Confessions

Current mood: relieved

I met up with an ex today. She was having some issues and needed someone to listen. So for the 1st time in a long while, i dropped everything and went. Now personally i have no idea why she chose me to talk, perhaps the distance and someone outside her circle helps.

Basically the issue is about communication and perhaps understanding. In my honest opinion is neither one of the above as one search deeper. Personally i feel its about wants and needs. From there stems expectations. With expectations hence feelings of contemptment and frustrations as one's expectations is not met.

I feel that once a choice is made, one has to follow things thru.. good or bad. Closure is very important. She did ask me if she was such a hard person to live with. In my case and my experience with her, it was very tiring. You see.. emotions often conflict with logic, the word commonly used byb most people "follow your heart" which means you do whatever you feel like doing. There is a saying , "the heart has its reasons; wherefore reasons knows nothing". Sadly we live in a life that .. well dont usually work out as things are intended. Everything has a cause and effect.

I dont know if she took my words to heart. But i think i made closure on my side. I explained the reasons why i left her. I live my life based on logic, it is very rarely i show any emotions. I have to be as my life is brought up as such. I know nothing else.. which sometimes i feel its a shame. Sometimes i feel empty as everything i do is calculated and planned. True, it would be the right thing to do, but yet.. the human heart needs more. It doesnt matter if she accepted or even understood my explaination of things. No doubt my narration could not fully project what my actions or even my justifications are, yet i feel its good enough for me.

My advise to her and to anyone is to apprieciate what u have. Wanting too much would cause too much grief, and the sacrifices one has to go thru to achive what you want, may not be something one can live with.

I will be wandering again i believe, but i think i'll be fine. At the end of the day i am on a quest for answers. Even if i dont get what i want.. i would like to have said, at least i tried. I just hope that my ex would find what she wants, which i believe she has. Perhaps she has to understand that furfilling her needs would be most important in her life rather than be like me, always on a quest, looking and searching but never finding.

Missing in Action...

I have been neglecting my blog for a while now.

Many things going on in my life, some good, some bad.

The bad was really bad, I actually went to see two different lawyers for two different matters.

One to ascertain the degree of difficulty for me to extricate myself from an undesirable position.

Another because of some false accusations levied against me. It eventually died down, probably because the ladies in question realised how much of a fool they were to even try to threaten in the first place.

The good... is good.

I feel alive again. ^^

Here's a camwhore pic just so to annoy you:

:)

Monologue from Namewee

A reporter from Utusan made some groundless remarks in her article, Namewee retaliated with this youtube video. You can watch it here. I have tried to translate what he said per se as best I can. :) His video is punctuated with a lot profanities (which I have obviously censored) and compounded with a lot of visual and sound effects that translated humour despite his obvious rant.

I don't necessarily agree with his choice to retaliate in such a manner, but he does have a point. Could have been delivered in a more finese way, but at least we know he is speaking through his heart rather than through a mask. :)

Hello, my name is Namewee. I am the director of Nasi Lemak 2.0.

I read in the papers today (Utusan Malaysia). One person (reporter) wrote in the papers that many people gave great reviews of the movie Nasi Lemak 2.0, but she would never go and watch and urges everyone not to go as well.

He says that the director, Namewee insults Malaysia and Malaysians. He used to write songs, used to blah blah.

Last time, last time what? Last time police wear shorts, last time people commute with bicycles. Now we travel with what? Airasia!

All the songs I wrote are patriotic. Do you understand what the song is about, do you even understand the lyrics? If you don’t understand, what the (profanity) are you accusing me about? Last time, last time who and what did I insult (profanity)? I ask people not to be racist. I ask people to do their work properly. I support 1Malaysia cannot?

Artistes of Malay, Chinese and Indians descent came together with combined efforts in this movie, isn’t it? The article you wrote without having ever seen the movie, do you think you are professional? Do you have brains? Newspaper such as this is an insult to Malaysia and Malaysians.

If you want to review movies you must first go see the movie. If you don’t watch, what are you reviewing? (profanity) If you don’t have money I will give you money, I will give you 2 tickets for you to go with your girlfriend to go watch together.

Rubbish newspaper!

Rubbish!

Plague of society! (I dunno how to translate this properly...)

 

Rubbish reporter!

You write only. You have a pen, you have a keyboard, you think you are a reporter already? (profanity)

(profanity)

The legal minister already confirmed that there is no case against me. If you want to hate me, hate me in your heart. How can you write such accusations in the newspaper?

I have a degree in mass communication. You don’t bluff me think I have never eaten durian before.

A newspaper is for reporting. REPORTING. You judge people based on what?

Not write for your own pleasure. Where is your certificate from? Drain?

If you don’t know what it means to be reporter, you should go back to school. You, along with your boss and your friends to go back to school first.

You think other newspapers are stupid? When they report, they report based on facts. Their review may be critical of the script or the artistes, but that is okay because they review after they watch the movie.

You? Have you ever researched? Always harping on the negative. Think you are smart? Syiok ah? (I really don’t know how to translate this exclamation).

Leaders (with a very dubious question mark?)

There are two types of leaders in this world. One who seeks to motivate and edify you, and one who finds glory in criticising and humiliating you.

So which type are you? Or which type do you aspire to be?
