Did you count that? 5 handbags and a pair of shoe!!!!   Hubby bought 2 different colour for item 2 so I’m giving the brown to my mom for Mother’s day. I’m really head-over-heels for emboidery stuff.

By the way, hubby bought 3 smoking dress for our princesses too. I can stare at them (the clothes!) hug them day and night.  Even the handbags, I’ve been feeling all the emboidery, putting them to my cheek and fiddling them. haha… I think I’m crazy.

Can you guess how much is those stuff?  US$3 !!!  Really. No joke!  Hubby said if I were there, he will go bankrupt that day. I’m definetely going to put Vietnam in my list for shopping to travel.

Happy belated 9th Anniversary to me!!!  It falls on the 6th May. Yeah!  I can never remember my anniversary nor hubby.  Dunno why.  Cos we don’t even care to celebrate it.  To me it’s not important.  We still live the day happily.  Anyway, I can pretended he bought me all those bags for our Anniversary.  How about that? Cool ya.

… and Happy Belated Anniversary to my Dear.  Lots of xoxo *muaks!

… can’t deny it.

Anyway, I didn’t shop for them.  Some guys are selling them for charity.

Normally, I won’t entertain road side donor but the good is  irrisistable for my eyes. Not!  (Note that the charity home is in Penang and they come all the way to KL to get donation???)

Photoframe or you can replace them with mirror or…

double up as a name card holder.

Lately I have improved a lot on my colour editing skill.  Look at the result:

actual colour before editing and after editing. 😉

i have 500pcs (or more) of pic in my office pc. I want to transfer all of them to my home laptop. i can’t use a thumb drive cos the file size is dem big unless i do part by part but it will take ages

i’ve upload some in yahoo photo and looks like i have to click the pic one by one to save it in my home laptop.  Even more job and dem dem slow!
Any other quicker way to do?

I’ve got another idea which is to bring my laptop to the office and use the thumb drive but i’ll leave that to the last resort.

There is a CD writer in my other kolig’s pc but I don’t want to let them know I’m doing something personal disturb them.  Anyhow, anyone got 1gig thumbdrive?  Can pinjam or not?  Linpek boh lui la……………. please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!……. pretty please!!!!!!!!!

2 weeks ago he’s away to North, 1 week ago he’s away to East and this week he’s away to Vietnam. *sigh… Each time when hubby is away for business I’ll get very moody + bad tempered + frown = lonely. It’s ok if the kids behave themselves but when they doesn’t (especially Carlgene) I’ll rather blow my head off with a M16.

A few things that he’s been taking care off when he’s around:
1) Fetch Kharsyn to and fro for Arithmetric class
2) Fetch Kharsyn to and fro for Violin class
3) Make their milk plus washing their milk bottles
4) Get the kids ready for school in the morning. (Yes! I can happily jalloping out the house in the morning. But usually Kharsyn will make sure mummy tied her hair cos she claimed Daddy is not expertise in that field.)
5) Do the dishes
6) Clean/picking up the toys on the floor

Not only he will help me with the chores but having an extra hand really help especially when you had a baby at home. For example when baby wants to be carried, I can’t even relieve myself. At one time, I have to placed the baby on my lap while I finish doing my business. That is awful!!!

Last night is something that I’ve not done for many many years. Waking up in the middle of the night by a crying baby. All this while, I’ll just have to nudge hubby and he will take care of situation from there. Now that hubby is away, I do missed him lots!!! *snif, snif… Especially when he’s away for the 3 whole freaking weeks something that is difficult for me to endure. (For me it is!)

I can’t wait till Saturday to see him at the front gate.  Left hand holding a luggage, right arm stretching out waiting for a big  bear hug from kiddos.  And me, greedily rummaging thru  all the goodies he bought for me from Vietnam….. *BiG GrIn!!!!!

Should two single people stay together in the same house before they get married — and even if it’s claimed that it is due to logistical/geographical or traveling reasons? What if it’s claimed that they’re not having sexual relations together and the man is sleeping on the floor and the lady is sleeping on the bed?

MY ANSWER:

I wish we could say that it would be just fine for this couple to stay in the same house alone together before they marry because I’m sure it would be much more convenient that way. The problem isn’t just in the fact that they’re staying in the same house together when they’re single, because they could be very innocent in their motives and their actions.

If this couple stays together like this – even if they are innocent, they will give fuel to someone who can accuse them of doing more than they are. Many people would never believe that a couple could stay together in circumstances like this and not fall into sin so the lies could take root in someone else’s mind (even if this couple is innocent).If this couple asks a friend or relative to stay in the home when they are there together, then this could work — as long as the person is someone who is trust-worthy and who won’t lie about the situation at some later date. But who knows what happens behind the closed door?

Partly also because people who choose to live together tend to be younger or less religious. They want to be absolutely sure this is the right person before they say, `I do’ for a lifetime. Some said that they are afraid to lose their partner so they move in together, hoping that the arrangement can keep them together. But, since there are no outlined commitments to stay with each other, what if unforeseen circumstances arise like the girl met in a bad car accident and he walk out on her. Now she is left to deal with the physical pain as well as the emotional loss of having her boyfriend walk away (whom she trusted and thought would stay by her side).

Living together before marriage is great too. It gives you an idea of how that person really is. If you wait till after marriage and decide you dont like their way of living what would you do, its to late. Yes, knowing one another’s habits can be good after marriage for you to work on and get used to the good and bad sides of each sexes bad points e.g. get used to the toilet seat being left up when we wanted it down!!

However it is up to the individuals. Each couple is different, it may work for some and other for whatever reason do not find it to work.

As usual I’m the kiasu type. Shop only during sales, dine in a posh restaurant only when they have a promotion. This is my first time having dim sum at Tai Thong.

Funny thing is why they started serving at 11.30am only? I thought folks usually take dim sum for breakfast? Well, being a kiasu Ah Soh, I make sure that we are first in queue cos I heard that the crowd can get pretty bad cos of the good promotion. We reach there at 11.15am and it’s already full of people…. eating! Hey, it says from 11.30am onward. Well nevermind, the place is sure not crowded but it was pack with people.

Chinese food especially BKT or dim sum goes hand-in-hand with a cuppa nicely brew chinese tea.

Our first round of dim sum….

Since it is RM1.98 per tray, we make sure that we ordered some expensive seafood and not some cheapo stuff.

And my all time favourite is Har Gau (prawn dumpling).

I’m a prawn lover if you must know.

Char Siew pau for the kids…

You know, my kids are so weird. They take only the bread and throw away the pork in them. They are always like that. If I had a choice, I’ll order man tao for them.

You want some pau? This has got my saliver on it. *tehehe..

Porridge for the baby…

Look closer in the photograph. That is not ginger. That is artificial ginger!!! I thought I am cheapskates. Tai Thong is cheapskates also!!! It is actually deep fried grass noodle. Good trick but spoilt the taste for the porridge.

Black vinegar pork…

Looks yummy right? But taste so lauzy!!!! It was supposed to taste sourish but I can hardly get any sourish taste. It is more like those normal soy sauce pork. Reminder for me. Never order this dish again. My mom can cook 10x better than this. Boohoo! This dish cost me RM4 and not RM1.98.

This is all we had that day. Can’t order too much cos there are only 2 of us plus hubby is a small eater. One thing I hate during dim sum is being seating on a table at the farrrrrrrr end. Those waitress won’t serve you at all unless constantly you have to wave them over. That is what happen to us again. They have a small list of photostated menu in CHINESE!!! Me dunno how to read lehhhhhh!!! I saw on our way out later that they have chee cheong fun and many many hot piping dishes. So disappointed :(.

Anyway for a good brunch in a posh restaurant, it cost me only…

We all know that Dana Reeve, a singer-actress who gave up some of her own career to be one of the nation’s best-known caregivers to her late husband Christopher Reeve the one-time Hollywood Superman who went through his decade of near-total paralysis after a 1995 horse-riding accident and died in 2004.Dana Reeve was a constant companion and supporter of her husband during his long ordeal. She’s there with him 24/7 anywhere and anytime. After losing her husband, another challenge fell on the shoulders of Dana Reeve as she battled lung cancer.

She had her share of adversity with the deaths of both her husband, Christopher Reeve, and her mother, within a few months of one another. Pretty much similar to our Prime Minister when he lost his beloved mom and beloved wife.

It’s been more than a month since her pass away I only spotted her news today while doing a google search on Superman. Funny that it’s been pretty low profile about her death. Not sure if it was just me.

This was supposed to be a post-entry. I’ve hosted them in my other ancient website in Geocities sometime in 2003 (how time flies *sigh…).

We started our journey early travelling from KL to Gopeng via the highway which took us about 1hr 45min at the speed of 110km/h and…. Your Highness is the one driving! Not bad eh.

We was greeted by the beautiful, green, rich and thick forest reserve around the cave. By the time we reach there it’s about 10am and we still can hear the beautiful cricket cripping. It’s like a music to our ear.

After paying the tour guide, we joined another bigger group of crowd cos there are only 5 of us. So the 30 of us enter the cave quipped with torch light. Some even bring along the headlight and I think it’s a very good idea at least you’ve got your hands free. You will know why, later.

The first hour of tour in the cave are pretty boring and not much of a adventure at all. There are man-made steps and stairs in the cave. You will be seeing lots of Stalagmites and Stalactites there. Some looks like an elephant or kangaroo, some even looks like my hubby’s little brother!!!

Not forgetting our Malaysia cave is full of bats and bat’s shit!!! Just imagine, you are admiring one of the big Stalagmites high up and human instinct was jaw wide open. There goes the bat’s shit in your mouth!!! *grrr… It’s true. The cavemen constantly remind us to keep our mouth close.

I can say that the Stalagmites and Stalactites is not as big and beautiful compare to the one I visited in Perth Mammoth Caves but the cool thing is the obstacle. Just name anything and they’ve got them all there. The tunnels….. stream…. the sliding….. the rocks climbing….

We have to go thru lots of obstacle trail and luckly the other group of people has enough man to at least pegang our tangan guiding us up or down those big rocks. At this moment, how I wish I don’t even bring along the torch light. Reason 1) My torch voltage is dem low and I can’t even shine far and those guy behind me is using a bigger voltage and can shine about 10 feet away. 2) Scare the hell of tumbling down those steep rocks and has been holding my dear live at any support I could get hold. I don’t even have enough hand for the torch light and not forgetting my camera.

No way for you to walk down the slippery limestone. You will have to slide down. There is this couple, his gf is dem lame. She refuse to slide down (fear of height) and was holding on to her bf almost in tears. Finally, they both decided to slide down together with his gf holding on to his back like piggy-back.

See, those guy down there, they are about 6ft tall and without them can you imagine how I land on the ground? Probably just fall flat on my face.

For guys that are wearing pants size 33 don’t try this. You will get stuck and they probably have to dig the hole bigger to let you pass thru. You’ll just have to take the 2nd option that is jumping down the cliff about 5meter high. I choose the hole cos there are some guys (*wink) holding on to my dear life again at the other end. I tell you, those guys are very helpful. Without them, all the girls will be crying their heart out and U-turn back.

I think when passing this obstacle it’s about 2 hours passed. After much more of trekking up and down getting yourself all hot and sweaty, it’s time too cool off…

Get yourself on all four and pass thru the undercave to get to the other end. According to the caveman, if it’s a raining season, the water will be higher and you will have to dive thru instead of paddling thru. It’s kinda cool under there with all the stalagmite hanging from the top. Just have to be extra careful or else kena cucuk.  Did anyone care to ask what about my camera???

Just like during school day kena punish from the teacher and have to do the duck walk around school. Dem tiring. If you don’t duck too low, then your head will get knock on the stone. *ouch, ouch!!! And if you duck too low, your movement is slower and your leg gets tired and aching.
At this point, my kolig who is wearing a 5y/o shoe decided to betray her. The bottom came off like the crocodile mouth.

She just ripped off the bottom and leave the top still attached to her foot and pretended nothing happen. haha… you can hear her swearing all the way *ouch, ouch*, *walk slower!* lol. At this moment, we understood why there are so many shoes/slippers left in the cave.

I’m not sure if you have heard of Wave Rock in Perth. Wave Rock is one of the many amazing rock formations which was exposed to wind and rain for more than a thousand million years.

Of course this is the mini wave rock. That’s what I called it. Just by standing there, you can feel the wind blowing in a U-turn direction. I think that is how the formation was created. Very amazing.

Well, have to cut long story short, you have to explore the cave yourself. We spent about 4 hours exploring the cave. There are many things that I left out. Some pic didn’t turn out nicely cos the cave is real dark. Total darkness. Anyway, the trip was like 3 years ago and this old brain of mine still can remember all this is consider very good liao. hahaha!

We are so relieve to finally end the trekking as we are soaking wet and dirty from the yellow mud and my poor leg is gonna break any moment.

*Precaution – do not wear light coloured pants if you do not want to reveal other personal information!!!

The first thing my kolig do when we see the sunlight is immediately abandone her betrayed shoes in the bins with 100s pair of other shoes! We had a good laugh looking at those piles of shoessssss.

Your Highness refuse to volunter to drive back to KL. Too dem tired!!! But we had a good meal in Gopeng savouring their famous Chicken+Bread = Curry or herbs chicken bake in the bread. Did not take pic. Like i say too dem tired!!!

It has never come across my mind that I would slept with a friend but I know someone out there is doing that.

No way!! Friends can never have sex with each other. In any case, they are called acquaintances. Friends are supposed to respect each other – that’s when you learn to trust and be comfortable with each other.

Don’t classified yourself as being conservative just cos you swear in your heart that you won’t do it – it’s about your moral values. You only have sex with people that you love. Having sex with friends or out of curiosity only serves to disrespect, even if it’s about being fun.

I can never imagine how friends can still continue to be friends even after having sex. Yucks! So do they go like,”last night very shiok hor. Let’s have a cup of coffee and discuss about it and then chat.”

EERKkss.

Just imagine, after the sleep over, you will became uncomfortable whenever he’s around and you just wished that he don’t brings it up and pretended things never happened and carrying on with the friendship as per normal. Or… you could avoid eye contact with him forever.
