It’s funny…how when u get older /more mature you dont feel like making a big hoohaa on the birthday.

=D the final year that i can proclaim i’m twenny sumthing.

so, i’ve decided to write a wish list instead. similar to those gift list for weddings (since i didnt have one then & it was always easier to accept cold hard $$ for weddings…) Here goes my wish list:

1) Being accompanied by close friends and loved ones for makan, wine & fun! That’s the most important!

2) Cool looking Starbucks thermal flask thingy with changable wallpaper

3) A book : WINE ENTHUSIAST MAGAZINE-ESSENTIAL WINE TASTING KIT (ISBN #10-0762427507) from MPH

4) wine rack…ha,ha,ha, (That will definitely cost a bomb! or i can start building one =D )

5) Resolve to start getting fit & healthy in preparation for little me. HA HAH HA!

hope i dont sound too greedy!?!? maybe as i think of other things, i will add them later.

ok…it’s been almost a week since the HP craze. I’m not talking about computers or printers but u know la…Harry Potter 7 or HP7 (not to be mistaken for HPV, human papilloma virus , tsk,tsk =D  )

i’m guilty…of being one of the manyppl who went from carrefour to tesco & try my luck to catch the cheaper version of the book. No stock la! then the day that the 4 bookstores decides to un’boycott’ the sales of the book & give additional 20% discount - i bought one copy!

Heck! can claim form income tax & still haven’t reach my Yr 2007 quota so i went ahead & bought the book! =D

Bet now when japanese girl reads this, she’ll probably blast me about joining the craze…it’s really unlike me, i’ve never actually been one of those who will queue up for days or anything for SALE, concerts, first screening…u get my drift?!?! but just that i went into MPH, ask if they had the book & bought one!

then yesterdya, a fren sent me a soft copy-so those who dont want to buy but curious to know what happened in the end of the saga, buzz me la for the soft copy!

tsk,tsk, tsk =D Hahahahaha!

aiyoh…

when lar i’m gonna take another holiday? i think this yr i only got 6 days left (to begin with, i only have about 15 days) - luckily after the wedding went for so many trips (RECAP : langkawi, taman negara, tioman diving, china) =D one cannot be too greedy right?

anyone out there know when the next air asia / malaysia airlines special promotion to places like bali or bangkok?! now that hubby got passport we must try to travel outside malaysia!

the weekend that i was working (aka 2 days ago) my frens went to penang to visit another fren who will soon be relocated to KL (near my offis…so got more frens to makan lunch next mth onwards) & they went to makna, drink wine, Slippery senoritas & even heard my favourite soon - FAST & FURIOUS! cant wait to be back in Kl to meet them & see some of their photos.

see some preview of china photos (all my face of cos!)

me in airplane

bro & i ‘begging’ bcos the bus broke down =D

It’s ironic. I just read over the weekend from FACES (taken free from my usual watering hole …) how a ‘lovely’ country like Malaysia & how most Malayians who are said to be a polite lot can get so aggresive & reckless on the road.

I was travelling outstation for work (AGAIN! as usual lar…) on our North-south expressway & overtaking slower cars that travels less than 100 km/hr & some AS**HoL* sped more than 160 km/hr flashes his blinking lights and couldnt stop honking so that i move away from the fast lane. The idiot…even gave me the finger as he drove away!! bloody idiot! and it’s not like i came out of my lane at the last minute…or that i was going slower than 110 km/hr but i suppose he was in some urgency to get to… H*LL or somthing like that!

And to top it up, he belongs to an infamous type of drivers…johoreans! I’m not against johorean or even try to stereotype them (heck, my dad is a true blue johor boy!) but it seems that everytime some cars honk at me (for no apparent reasons) or even the last accident i had involving my van (when i was still in uni & it was not my fault at all) the drivers & car happens to be a johor number plate.

TO cut long story short, throught that 5 hr drive i notice the singaporeans (based on their vehicle number plate) was also travelling quite fast (mostly above 150km/hr) but they seem more curteous on the road. They may blink blink and seem to know how to gauge the speed of the car in front of them…maybe they are just smarter than johoreans!?!?!

p/s :to my johor chum who’s busy working in kuching right now…dont get offended by my story, ok? =D

Aiyoh…

No electricity at the house…been like this for about 5 hours already. So hot, luckily came back earlier & managed to bathe…

N my bro just called me to say electricity is back! Time to go home & pack my bags for another outstation trip/work/wxpedition! =D

Well…I don’t think I’m jinxed or anything but the darnest thing had happened today… I don’t’ think I was day dreaming but I somehow fell on my knees & hands (otherwise commonly called as Pee-Kay) as I was walking from my car to the office. 

Thank GAWD nobody was near enough to see me fall, it was like one of those stupid cat-walk falls that I just saw in a magazine last weekend, the model walks, lose her footing & fall FLAT! What happened to me was:

1)      wore my slippers from my car (boss not in today so can wear slipper) & anyways it was about 4 pm

2)      walked across an almost empty car-park lot just behind my usual hair-dresser’s palce

3)      lost my footing bcos there was a drain on the road & Pee-kayed!

Aiyoh…and this Saturday got church wedding & luncheon to attend then have to drive 300-odd KM to work outstation…mana boleh!?!?!

Damn tau mei la.

Luckily see the doctor, took tetanus jab, clean the wound & put dressing. More marks to put on my legs now… =D

9th July 2007 : new addition : to frens & family who sent their regards…no worries, the fall was not a serious one. the knees are drying up well, i can walk…heck i think i can even salsa!

it’s just that it’s kinda itchy now so that must mean that it is getting better right? =D

=D

Happy…deliriously happy!

Hubby & i went to the FOC salsa beach party @ Port Dickson (Tanjung Tuan Regency & Selesa Beach Resort) as part of the World Latin Salsa COngress 2007.

Saw lotsa great dancers, heard the wonderful & talented band La BAnda Sigilosa, tried great buffet spread…all bcos we took part in TRaxx fm contest.

Life’s great, but sometimes good things comes free!

=D wait for pictures to be uploaded la!
