1 out of 3 pics is you eating something



Ushering the new year at G‘s was mighty fun. I did not drink = I did not fall asleep = I was able to observe them merry makers at their funniest. Playing Connect 4 and Scrabbles with pissed but otherwise intelligent people is an effective way to boost your confidence, by the way. Food was…well, refer above. My best new year’s celebration to date.

Good turnout at the party.

Rummaging for the last colonel’s chicken.

How to distract hungry sods from your Nachos – pout.

Contrary to belief, I wasn’t squeezing anything.

First day of 2005 was spent amongst the clouds at Genting Highland. Weather was not at its best, rides in the outdoor themepark were mostly closed so we were confined within the indoor park. Visited Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum (which was quite interesting; especially Mahathir’s Hologram figure) and a pansy Haunted House. Swear I wasn’t scared, just that screams are contagious (like seriously, ok?) and I wasn’t screaming that much anyway! Journey back home was pretty scary cause the visibility was bad but I trusted the driver cause he’s like knew what’s he doing, cool and collected like that. Then we had the most awesome asam fish and chicken fillets soaked in black pepper sauce for dinner, at which point I bade goodbye to my diet plan.

Foggy carpark.

Orgasmic asam fish.

Yesterday, giving no fuck about my impending obesity, I allowed myself to be lead to the most incredible seafood noodle in SS2. I think the restaurant’s called Segambut Mee or something. Ultimate comfort food and I vow to sample all the flavours offered.

My resolutions for the year 2005:

1. Stop procrastinating

2. Save up moolah

3. Learn to cook by heart (not by book)

4. Lose this pesky 5 kilos for real

5. Keep fit

6. Sleep like a regular person

7. Be patient

8. to be continued…

All in all, I started the new year with a modest but no less impressive blast. I hope it’s a good beginning to better things.

VENT

I’m unbelievably lazy. I need to kill some puppies. I want to throw stones at people’s cars. I want to give my accounting lecturer a haircut. I want to sleep. I want to sing. I want to burn my accounting textbooks (and force them ashes down my lecturer’s throat). I want to tie accountants to chairs and flick teaspoon on their heads every 2 seconds. I want to be alert. AARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

2004 sucks at times.

Post-christmas blues or examination stress? Who knows? Who cares? I just want to guzzle loads of cola, chomp on fried chickens…all while watching re-runs of The Apprentice. I knew Bill Ransic was going to win, having read the abstracts online a year ago. He is so hot. Oh la la. Got to repeat, HE IS SO GAWD DAMN HOT.

I thought the show was not going to make it to Malaysia but thank goodness those tv people have some common sense afterall. Maybe they too realised that they’ve been dangling precariously above the flames from combustion of dumb reality shows. One more For Love or Money and I’m going to heed my arsonist calling. By the way, I miserably miss Frasier. Sigh.

I almost kamikaze-d my future this morning. My procrastination got me into hot soup. Again. Well, the story went like this, I set my alarm to 3am in the morning so I could mug them books till 8.30am. Murphy’s Law in action, I got up at 8.30am instead. That left me with less than an hour to revise. Don’t ask me why, but I survived. However, I must admit to my detriment, I did seriously consider giving the exam a pass and to retake it another time. After a couple of deliberations and U-turns, I drove to college in determination.

Mom has a colleague affected by the tsunami. Her house’s flattened and her mother is in the hospital recuperating from broken ribs. Thank goodness nobody in her family died. Another colleague has a house on a hilltop by Miami Beach, she said the view from her window is simply heart-rending. The fact that we’ve never experienced tsunami before shouldn’t be an excuse for the incompetence of our meteorological department. Could it be because it’s a Sunday and Boxing Day to boot? Last I read, the deathtoll is 44000 all over Asia. RIP.

Allow me to digress. Here are some pictures from the Xmas party.

Many turned up.

Suan and me.

The Chefs at work.

Wah Chai cracking everybody up.

Corn was sweet but not as sweet as me.

Me, Duncan and G.

Everyone digging in. Who’s that so elegantly popping peas?

Back to mugging accountings. Peace.
