15454

Pig_angel and bro went to uncle's house on 27th Jan because on 28th, we will be going to Ipoh for CNY celebration. Pig_angel's uncle is a bachelor and a retiree after working in S'pore for 16 years. When I reached his home, I found that he right corner of his house was rather dark. Then, I noted that the lamp post was not on. That is a private lamp post. They called it 'lampu berbayar' which mean the lamp post was set up for individual need with the owner paying the bill monthly. Don't ask me how much it is. So, my uncle was desperate to get it fixed:

Uncle: Do you dare making a phone call?
Pig_angel: Dare of course, what is wrong with making a phone call?
Uncle: Good good! Help me call to complain on the lapm post. Phone no is 15454.

So, Pig_angel pick up the phone and start dialling. After a while....

Operator: Helo, selamat malam. Tenaga Nasional Berhad, boleh saya membantu
Pig_angel: Selamat malam. Saya nak buat aduan tentang tiang lampu depan rumah.
Operator: Nombor telefon cik.
Pig_angel: *******
Operator: Alamat rumah cik ialah ***************************
Pig_angel: Ya..
Operator: Baikla, kami akan hantar orang untuk baiki. Terima Kasih.

Finished with the task, Pig_angel went to inform uncle.

Pig_angel: Done. It is easy you just need to tell them your phone number.
Uncle: (looking rather sheepish) : is it? No wonder la...
Pig_angel: what did you tell the operator?
Uncle: I told him 15454. I thought he wanted to know the number I dialled.

Hhahahahahaahaa... Pig_angel laugh until none stop.

Secret to keep fit

Dinner is here. It is usual for us to have dinner provided when during month end. So, I have inform representatives from various department to come and collect the dinner. Beaver came down... strolling over like gangster. As usual I like to tease him. He also like to make fun of me and my manager. After a few exchange of laughter, he went up. Back up, I IM him....

Beaver: You very bad... sound so loud when say I am fat! Me pai seh...
Pig_angel: Sorry lor.. :-P, you also very loud what...

Beaver: Actually fat is not good for me. Ask you something....how to keep fit?
Pig_angel : Huh?

Beaver: You look slim already... How do you slim down? Can tell me?
Pig_angel: Where got? I think you have not seen me for a long time.

Beaver: No, you have slim down.. honest.
Pig_angel: I think because I wear black today. I look slimmer in dark outfit

Beaver: That one I know but your face also slimmer.
Pig_angel: Still round what?

Beaver: Of course round..if not triangle? (pig_angel was laughing). So how to keep fit?

End of the conversation, Beaver take up the courage to keep to the keep fit plan... hopefully he made it la.... ganbatte!

Driving without road tax

Yesterday, I finally send my car for a car wash. 3 months since its last bath. CNY is near, so better give it a nice little bubble shower so that it won't look so ugly and dirty. Hahahaha.. my car was covered with dried leaves and branches.. not to mention dirt and dust. Well... well..... I went with Nic, my bro's friend (younger than me). After watching the people washing my car, me and Nic chat a little and brought the topic about road tax. Suddenly it come across my mind.. when should I renew my road tax?

Pig_angel: I think my road tax expired!

Nic: o_O what?? Don't joke! (Quickly got up from the chair and walked over to have a clear look). Oh my GOD!!! It is expired since Dec 21st 2005!!! How come you don't know it is expired!

Pig_angel: (very sheepishly)....month end, busy with production so, I forgotten.

Nic: Oh my goodness! You are almost a month late!

Pig_angel: Boy, I was lucky not being caught! I am still driving it around today.... how ah now??

Nic went speechless....Pig_angel no choice but do leave the car at home until the road tax is renew. Telling some friends and family about the incident, below are some of the feed backs.

Beloved cousin, Blurr_monkey : Champion lor you!
Colleague in office :
Aiyoo.. you better go see psychiatrist (o_O)
Sei lo you..... lucky did not get caught
Maybe is the age.... (argghhhh... )
o_O.. -_-"...

Expected reaction from brother: What?? You have been driving around without road tax!!!! (lucky he don't know.... shhhhhh)

'Female' Mosquitoes

Hahahaha.. wondering why I am so happy? Well, I am on leave today.. and tomorrow. Yipee! I deserve this, working like a donkey for the last few months, this is like heaven. What have I been doing? Well, I meet up with my cousin, Blurr_monkey on Saturday in KLCC. She is actually very very broke. She is in the mist of getting a job, graduating from Lim Kok Wing ( I cannot really sure what degree she is in, but I know she wants to do broadcasting.. in 8TV, but so far no interview yet). We had lunch then we walk walk around. I ended up buying things again.. sigh.. no NOT clothes. I bought books..and make up.. and it DID NOT come in cheap!

I have been at my aunt's house for 2 nights. Just came back today. On Saturday night, me and Blurr_monkey went to 'yum cha' at the mamak stall. We chatted like we used to be ( you cannot imagine.. we emailed, yet we still chat online, and when we meet there is still a lot to chat...sometimes.. I wonder myself, we got so much to talk about??). Some time later, her friend came and join us.

Blurr_monkey: Why the mosquitoes like me so much ah? You got any bites on your ? (turning to the friend)

Friend: Nope....

Blurr_monkey: You stink, that is why no mosquitoes near you.. all come to me. Weird. I thought
mosquitoes are 'females', they should be bitting you..

Friend & Pig_angel: There are 'females'... only 'female' mosquitoes bite!!!! hahahahahaa...

Blurr_monkey actually 'forgotten' only 'female' mosquitoes bite.. and she has been scratching like monkey throughout the whole night.. hahahahahahaa

Miserable day

I guess everybody has a lousy day. Today happens to be mine. Consider the kind of news I am getting and the kind of reaction I am showing, I think I consider myself least disappointed. I do shed tears not because of what he did to me, but of how stupid I am. Thinking back, this lesson is not as bad as the one in Uni.... at least this one is silently resolved. Nobody really knows what is happening except for those who heard my recount and myself .. and of course him. Honestly, I am more disappointed than angry.. more embarassed of myself then sad. Now if I have that kind of feelings then it is good. Meaning my recovery will be swift.

I don't know if I should consider myself as a victim of this whole con or I should say I am damn stupid enough to fall for it. Yeah, the latter will be more possible.. after all, females can be stupid at times... maybe I am just one of them at that particular time. I should have suspect or known that something is fishy but I was too blinded by emotions.. there are so many evidence. But luckily, nothing else happen except for my wounded pride and my tender feelings.

Anyway, it is better to find out now than later. Now that I know he has been LYING all along from the beginning... then it is easy for me to kill him straight out of my life. I will keep quiet... no point talking about it anymore.. let this silent retreat be the solution. If I have to deal with him again in future.. I will with my head held high.. to tell him that whatever the foolish thing I have been thinking back then, I already swept it all away. I will not let it haunt me. I have survived the worst. This is just another bad dream. I will recover, overcome it.... besides I am not the one to be plague by the guilt of flirtations.

Thanks to those who cared for me.. may God bless you all. Like the saying, wherever God closes the door, somewhere HE opens a window. And they happens to be my window...

Chen Hoe

I received email from my best pal, Chen Hoe today. I never thought he will reply so soon. Usually, his reply will not be so swift knowing he is very busy.

I came to know Chen Hoe at age 15, when we are doing form 3. Being myself, I am always active and talkative in class. I am from an all-girls school. He is from an all-boys school. Now if you are wondering how 2 persons from 2 different schools meet each other.. we met in tuition class. Back then, I don't even know his name. He is kind of quiet type. I am proactive in asking questions (smart ass at that time I guess). Among his group of friends, I know Eugene the best cause he is the talkative and sarcastic one (always trying to counter my questions.. ). Anyway, that year we are sitting for exams (PMR). Never thought of meeting them again the next year. But we did. Eugene started to approached me asking to call him to make arrangement for tuition classes. Ah... now you get the picture. That is how we got to know each other up close. Eugene started to tell me that Chen Hoe got a hitch on me.. more like admired me (maybe because I am talkative...). Well.. funny how all this started.

Anyhow, we did not progress to anything more than friends. He is a very nice friend. Always listening to be honest. In fact, we have a common interest... to be doctor. But i did not fulfill mine. He did. He is a doctor now in Cleveland. And he is a handsome one. He is very good looking to be honest. I like to share my things with him. In a way, he will try his best to listen and give opinion. For so many years, we still keep in touch. I will email to him and he will reply whenever he can.

Chen Hoe will be coming back this 21st and I can't wait to see him. I have not been seeing him for 3 yrs now.. wondering how he will look now.

1st MC in 2006

Today I am on MC. Well, consider this is the first MC I take for 2006. I can tell you that I rarely falls sick enough to be on MC. I had a very bad flu and migraine yesterday. After taking medication I slept at 9.00pm. Hoping that everything will be ok when I wake up this morning. God knows better... my eyes like goggles! I hardly recognised myself! MC.... I don't want to scare the hell out of people.

Well, some people like being on MC.. but then on MC can be boring.. you can't sleep the whole day off, it makes you even more sickly and tired. So, I tried to do something besides sleeping, I tried to read.. barely get 2 pages through before I become boring, then I tried iron the clothes and wash the toilet.. not bad. I got both of them done. Nothing vigorous... just a little brushing in the toilet and I sit when I iron my clothes..

Tomorrow is another holiday.. thinking of getting my house clean. Planning to dust the house and clean the house. CNY is near, although this year's celebration will not be the same without my parents, but I still need to clean it. Minimal cleaning is required no matter how. My house is kind of messy now. Pai seh...

Fashion awareness?

Today..is a holiday... yes! First Saturday off after so long... hahahaa. I've set the alarm for 9.00 am.. well, I don't want to oversleep.. I am meeting my friend at 10.30am. When alarm sounded at 9.00am, I am still lazying on my bed.. cozy in the blanket (it was raining this morning), it was cool and nice to sleep and dream a bit about our imaginary 'boyfriend' (shh... don't ask.. I think most girl do have.. it is only a matter of how they looked like..hhehehehe). When my friend called at 9.20am asking to meet at 10.00am instead.. I am like "oh my god I haven't wake up!!!". Still, I made it on time.

We went walk walk around and shop shop a little.. (I am not a shopping kaki... just that, nothing to do.. no boyfriend yet, I have the time to do that..). Yet, I don't intend to buy anything.. but then.. temptations, with all the nice clothes and discount they are giving.. oh it is just so hard to pretend you don't see anything. Worst thing is, I never got anything off from the discount shelf... mine was all normal priced merchandise! Well, the truth is, discount item is either out of size, out of colour or out of trend. And girl with my size, body shape (plumpy and short)...who only fit into specific cuttings.. specific fashion (old fashion - simple, nothing too flowery or too many patterns... just plain simple..).

I envied girls that can fit into anything and then look so damn good in it. And most of all, even if they don't seems nice in it, they got the gut to wear it!! I am thinking.. am I being too 'conservative', or am I being like too old for all this (like what Dom said .. "maybe age caught up with me") ... or I am so well aware of my own 'assets' that I only want to look nice in things on me? I don't know.. have tried to bring in the change.. but then it is just ...NOT me..gosh...

Well, even as a teenager, I am opposed to trend. I never go with what is in and what is out in the fashion world. To me, the most important thing is I wear comfortably and I feel great in it. People might see it as it is plain and simple.. but that is my style. You will not find anything with BIG patches of flower in my wardrobe.. or thing you see other people wearing. Even if you did, mine will definitely be the most simple ones... swear! Well, if one day a guy happens to fall for me.. he will have to bear with me... that I am not a trendy girl like the others. (guys sometimes do hope their girls to be pretty and trendy). By being myself, it also meant that I am saving his pocket.. hahahaa.. anyway I don't need his sponsorship for clothing.

Getting the perfect clothes for myself is a BIG task. First, I can never fit into a long pants without alteration .. I am not even middle height (5' 1"). I have to make sure the pants fit my butt.. that is the difficult part. I am voluptous on the butt part (big butt).. but this butt is driving me crazy when it comes to fit into pants and denim skirt! Most of the time.. when I can fit into the butt nicely it will be loose at the waist.. sigh.. and I found my solution that day. The denim shop was really patient with me.. make sure I fit my butt comfortably..altered the length and even the waist for me.. so I fitted on the butt and the waist!

Moving on to the top.. ah.. this one.. must be simple and plain or just simple patterns. I am plumpy.. no doubt.. so S size will NOT fit. M sometimes do.. but for some other times I need a L. For formal wear, (this is tricky), L make it for the body fit but the sleeve length (for long sleeves) will be long enough for me to act in Chinese Soap Opera... (get what I mean?). M will fit the arms length on the sleeves.. but I cannot sit.. cause if I do.. all the button will be in dire state to pop out soon. Headache right? I resort to sleeveless or short sleeves.. :-D

Skirts.. I like them.. cause I don't have to worry about my butt not fitting in and no alterations for short skirt and i don't look that short in short skirt. However, the skirt has to be SIMPLE. Nowadays, the skirts are fluffy with a lot of laces, cuffs and curls ( I don't know what it is ).. which will make me looked like an oversize pumpkin with legs if i am in it! And the colour, I am good in dark colour skirt.. it makes me look slim and easy to match with any top. But nowadays, fashion has it that skirt is now like made out of variety of cloths. One skirt can have 3 different patterns imprinted cloths on it ! I don't know how to define it.. just yikes!

Anyway, today has been fruitful.. cause I have been able to get a nice green top that makes me look nice and a black skirt.. heheheehe..

Top 8 things I want to do if I am not working

After a long day at work... what do you want to do most when you got home or when you finally have the time to do other things? I can think of top 8 things I want to do the most when I don't have to work...

1. The most important of all - SLEEP
Those who can sleep until 10am daily, of course you will think "what?? sleep?" Yeah, sleep. Working life is tiring. You crack up your brain at work.. almost all your brain juice is dried up by the time you reach home. With all the OTs, you can reached home at 11... exhausted, dried up and you stink. By the time you bath, rest a while... oppss.. it is midnight... party? Yum cha? mamak..? Sorry la.. tomorrow is another long day.. sleep. If it is Friday night or Saturday night.. yeah maybe you can 'stay' up a bit late.. otherwise.. sleep.

2. Catch up with drama/movie on the idiot box
Honestly speaking, I don't even know what is the hottest drama on TV...most probably the one I named already outdated or no longer on TV....

3. Reading my favourite book
Don't laugh, reading is currently my hobby although I know this would be the last hobby I have thought of adopting for those who knows me... but then the once outgoing gal you guys know... turn to somebody more solitary. As a friend told me.. "maybe age is catching up".. really feels like smacking him on the face. No, not age... just prefer to relax your mind a bit after a long day of work... empty your mind... I can still be outgoing.. but not on weekday... weekday i am dead fish...

4. Clean up my house
It is a mess! So embarassed, don't even dare to invite friends over. Things every where...

5. Go on a trip
On the verge of planning... wanted to 'escape' from this world of working madness. Go somewhere far far away... if can, don't want to come back. If can, hopefully found somebody there, got married.. and walla...no need to work... yipeee (stop dreaming!)

6. Catch up with friends
It is time to get to know what your friends have been doing lately... you find that you actually missed out a lot. While you have been busy working.. they might have accomplish a lot.

7. Get a boyfriend
Hahaha...

8. Shop until your drop
I have been missing all the mega sales ok..

The Bra Story

Went for a shopping today. Gosh! Humans everywhere. Well, well... still our primary motive was to come out for a New Year's lunch at the famous The Ship. But then as I passed by BB plaza - bra fair!!! The last time I really really shopped for bras was a year back... and I do need new bras. Bras nowadays don't come cheap. And of all the brands I have my eyes on Triumph. I can never afford it when I am still a student. But now, I guess I have earn enough to pamper myself a bit with expensive things that I can afford and one of them is ... yes... BRAS!

Don't be absurd...besides looking nice from the outside, a girl will also need to look nice from the 'inside'. In fact that is the foundation of looking nice and beautiful in whatever you wear on the outside. Most girls do know about that. But not all can afford beautiful, stylish and not to mention sexy lingerie. I, for one don't go for sexy ones..(at least not yet.. hehehe) but I go for beautiful and stylish.

Having nice bra is important. Why? They:
1) will make you feel comfortable for the whole day...you don't have to bother that your bra get unjust throughout the day.
2) make you looks nice. Hey, I just know today that bra can help you shape your breasts! I look just plain in half cup bra ok.. and in order to shape it nice .. I have to wear a 3 1/4 cup bras.. don't laugh.. it is true. You should find out your own cup!
3) are your proud property. I don't know about you gals... but I do think, owning an expensive bra sometimes is a proud thing.. well, let's face it.. not all gals can or will spend so much on a bra. It cost 100+ for a nice bra from triumph not inclusive of a matching bottom...
4) indulge your confidence. When you have a nice bra, you have a nice breasts (at least they appear to be nicer looking), then you look nicer in your shirt or dress (whatever you are wearing) and you know that you do look nice in it. And there goes your confidence booms up.

It is costly to get nice bras... but then it is long term investment....I realised it today. Actually, it come across my mind that i can actually 'install' it.... by buying one bra a month... in a year you will have 12 different bras.. of assorted colour and style and you can wear it whole year long. The most important point is... it will not be as costly as buying all of it at one go!

P/S: I spent 300+ for just 3 bras....
