Special People at the swimming pool.

Had a twitter debate (more sensitive ones would call it “Twitter War”) with someone I do not know on the definition of special people. It’s a meaningless past time I sometimes indulge on due to boredom and for the sheer joy of twisting your panties into a knot. I mean no harm, as always, hehehe. Some people really do need to lighten up and be able to laugh at themselves, seriously. :)

So hope you can be entertained by pictures of these special people swimming at the pool. :D

Stupid Friday.

Gahhhh what a bad day! Went for lunch with ST and Kerol at Seremban Favourites. Then in the middle of makan, ST’s tooth filling fell out -_-. So instead of going home, I took him to the dentist. Thing is, I don’t really like going to that particular dental clinic because the parking is horrendous. Lo and behold, a lorry was just coming out from a parking space as I approached.

So far so good right?

So I parallel parked and tried to park my car as near to the curb as possible since the road is narrow and all (I don’t want other cars to accidentally clip the side of my car). My parking was perfect, till I looked into my side mirror and there it was…

….a fucking pole making love to the side of my door.

# – This is what I saw in my side mirror.

I didn’t even feel it wtf!!!

I got down from my car, stilll feeling rather optimistic because I didn’t feel anything. And then the bf also exited from my car and at that very moment, in front of my very eyes, the entire car bounced ever so lightly towards the pole and touched. FML.

At this point, I was trying not to cry and got the bf to move the car away from the pole because I couldn’t bear the possibility of n00bing it and making the scratches worse.

(BTW WHO THE FUCK BUILD A POLE INSIDE A PARKING SPACE ANYWAY????)

After that, we went to the dental clinic, got the bf’s teeth done and returned to my car. We inspected the scratches again. He bent down to look closer at the door, while I stood behind him and extended my arm over his head to caress the scratches.

And very suddenly, my boyfriend back headbutted me in the fucking face.

# – Kinda like this.

It was so painful I couldn’t speak for 5 minutes after but at least I lived to tell this tale of a stupid Friday.

Getting an awesome feature wall for your home.

Having a feature wall is a great way to bring in some colours and character to an otherwise boring room. Personally, I’m tired of those boring, mass produced wall decals. They probably look great the first few months but after a while when dust and gunk start collecting around the edges and they begin to curl…yucks.

I loved those Damask wallpapers but it seems like EVERYBODY is using them now. Wallpapers with unique designs cost an arm & leg and I’ve seriously never seen a perfectly stuck wallpaper in my life. There’s always something about the alignment and the faint edges that put me off. So yeah, no wallpapers for me.

I had a drastic thought of asking my contractor to strip off existing plaster on the wall to expose the bricks but long term maintenance issues scared me off almost immediately. Think dusts and the female fickle-mindedness, am pretty sure I’d miss the smooth wall after 10 minutes. What if I’m bored of exposed bricks then, it’ll cost us a bomb to smoothen the wall again :P

Back in the late 80s and early 90s at my parents’ home, we had a bare wall right behind the staircase railing that was visible from the living room. I remember my Dad meticulously cutting out shapes from newspapers and sticking them onto the wall with sticky tape. And then, he’d spray paint all over the newspaper cuttings and when he finally peeled them off, an awesomesauce picture of a sun and black birds emerged on our wall. It was too cool!

I’m pretty sure I have the picture of the wall somewhere, me and my brothers used to camho with it but the pictures are at my parents’ home so you’ll have to contend with an illustration of how I remember it :D

# – Dad’s sun and birds. Hmm, that’s the staircase railing at the bottom :P

Well that’s a feature wall circa 1990 for you. People don’t do these things anymore, do they? It’s time consuming and plus, you really must have an epic bundle of faith in your own creativity before you start messing with your walls (which my Dad had. He’s still got it but he’s channelling it into bedazzling his golf bag, just kidding).

Well, even if you don’t have the time, energy or creativity, fear nothing because my friend Haze and her two friends have created a dream team in transforming even the dullest wall into a work of art. They are called “PaintLust”. Check these out:

# – Whimsical and pretty.

# – Sexy rock & roll. This is KY‘s wall by the way.

# – Sleek and manly.

Yes, these are all painted walls! So you want an awesomesauce customised wall painting in your home but you suck with the brush and rather sleep than dirty your hands with paint, you know who to call.

Before I end this post, I’ll show you one last picture to show how talented Haze is. She drew this in under 15 minutes:

# – She gave me better eyebrows hehehe.
