Musings Of An Erratic Mind

"I think of nothing but love. The continual amusement I derive from intellectual pursuits, for which I am always being reproached as if it were a crime, finds its very justification in this singular and unceasing taste for love. For me there is no idea that is not eclipsed by love.If it were up to me, everything opposed to love would be abolished. That is roughly what I mean when I claim to be an anarchist." -Louis Aragon 1924

I'm overly gorgeous. Not cute. Not kawaii. Not adorable. O-V-E-R-L-Y G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S. Get it right or suffer my wrath. :p I'm delusional. I'm eccentric. My only compulsive obsession is shopping. I love my family. I love my friends. I love everyone who's been by my side throughout this roller coaster ride. It sure is one hella ride! And remember boys and girls, if it's not deep fried, it's not worth eating (from the words of a famous cat) :p

Happy lub story

I've been had.

Anyhow, just wanted to say that blogging activity in this space here will only be happening on a non-regular (what was the opposite of regular...apart from irregular?!) basis. My muse has taken a hike. >_<

I also just wanted to add that...I'm in love. Again.
I feel so girly girl. If i'm not already. Hee.
I never thought I would succumb myself to watching soapy mushy Korean dramas with similar storylines. But i did! And boy did i cry my heart out. It does feel good to do that once a while. :)

So, without further ado, my past and current addiction...


Ohhh Ji Seong. (What a crap unromantic name? Yes i know!) But, isnt he ever so inevitably dreamy. So...hot :p Well, in this series ofcourse. You'll understand when you watch it! You must must watch it, and witness the hotness :p That picture doesnt quite do him justice. *giggles*

Even though I didnt quite understand what they were saying (there were english subtitles), I guess you can say action speaks louder than words. How cheesy.

Oh so handsome. So manly man man.

siGhhhssss

An Uncanny Incident

Last week I hit the roof....WHEN I GOT MY PHONE BILL! By yimminy! One would think I've learnt my lessons from all these "unneccessary" long distance phone calls, but I cant seem to contain myself! *screams* So i made an agreement with the fatso, we shall only call each other like once a week each, that way we both get to save, and we get to talk to each other twice a week, apart from the constant sms-ing, and msn-ing. Sometimes, trying to play hard-to-get works too. :p

On Monday, I was sitting at work, thinking about my fatso. Sighs. I miss him so bad. But I cant call him! No i shant! I'm not weak!!!

*tap tap tap*

*drums the table*

I feel a side of me peeling awwayyy...

*crawls weakly*

.....musstttt......not.....pickk....up.....that phone

AARGH!

Suddenly, unconsciously, my fingers began miraculously dialling his house number. o_O

I stared in disbelief.

*dial tone* doot doot doot

Hello?
Hewo fatty?!!!
What do you want?

*jumps with joy*

I swear, it was like I was possessed or sumfin. *angelic smile*

Ye Olde Irish Pub

Sunday night. I'm at Finnegan's.
Surrounded by old people.
One or two could possibly be teachers from GIS.
Two or three could possibly be my neighbours from Vista Kiara.
Four or five could possibly be my dad's friends.

See, when you mix milk with coffee (or for the benefit of yours sincerely, BAILEYS), it's undoubtedly yummy. Drown that mixture with beer, and it gets ugly. Maybe not ugly per se, but still, nothing pretty nonetheless. You catch my drift, oui?

*groan*

Stuck here I am with my daddy-o, for another good half hour. He's having the usual beer with his mates. I'm having wine. By myself. In Finnegan's. With old people. Yeap, just me and good ol' cab sauv. I feel life is passing me by very quickly...or, I've been played. Oh, the pity of it all.

My mum's at her friend's farewell in Vista Kiara, whom, she ofcourse met whilst we were staying there. Quaint little, jovial japanese lady she is. And VERY generous i must add. I get heaps of prawn tempuras every weekend! *SLURP* I do mish those good ol times. Dunking me prawns in that tempura sauce. Ahhhh bliss.

Sorry, back to the point. So mum's there, and I, so enthusiastically offered to go with her in the beginning, with the hope of meeting, new, and ahem exciting Nippon jin (pronounced "ni-hon jin") erm, friends. Butttttttt to my utter disappointment, the house was filled with crazy old cherpy japanese women high on sake, and their husbands, and in some cases, lovers.

WHERE ARE THE KIDS?!!!

This was I, at the beginning...bursting right in, attention-whoring as usual.

Me: Ogenki desuka! Konban wa!
Hostess: Ah stefanie-san, dozo goenryo nakuu..

*me nudges mum*

Me: Did she ask me to help myself to the food? o_O
Mum: No you idiot, she said dun be shy
Me: Same thing la :p

Damn my jap is quite powderful eh.

Before i could get muh slender fingers on the tempura (i swear its calling out to me), she pulled me aside and introduced her husband, which she thought I forgot.

Hostess: kochira wa watakushi no shujin desu!

*took me 15 secs to register what she was saying*

He does look quite like her husband i met last time.

Me: Ahh, Uncle Moma! Kochira koso dozo yoroshiku??

*pauses*

Then Uncle Moma bursts into laughter.

*oh shit*

He: Ahh young steffie-san remember old Uncle eh?

*phew*

Then i had to ask..."Bocchan? Delvin-sa, he's not here tonight?"

My mum glared at me from across the room. And so it went on, till for bout another hour later, I realized (and faced the fact that) no japanese heroes are gonna show up. So i decided to leave with my dad to bangsar to meet his friends. He said he'd be there for only awhile, in his words "give or take 45 mins, just a quickie, and then back to pick mum up before she knocks herself out wif sake".

So i thought, ok fine, since its a quickie, i wont hafta call in reinforcements. One and a half hour later, there i was painfully sitting by myself. Surrounded by known older men doesnt quite count as company y'know.

My life sux!! Thou shalt not mock the great vain one. >_<

The case of the ex...or so i think

! Edit ! Piccies are up. (See, I kept to my word this time :p)

This post is definitely wayyy overdue. Been bogged down with work.
Responsibilities. Pfft. Dont like that word anymore :p
Anyhow, so I just got back on Mon from my weekend escapade in Penang...ahh seeafood and hot guys paradise. Foreign hot guys, specifically *drools* The one place i can perv openly. Yes yes yes! Not this time around though...strictly, family business, i.e. visiting great gran, so no resort hotel damnit. Piccies as usual will be up soon.

The views from my room...




My cousin Becky..isnt she adorable? :)


Becky and her brother Alex


This pic does not do us justice. I look phased out as usual. My cousin Electra looks like she's gonna attack my uncle...or me. And my great gran looks spooked.




Then Im back...Monday morning, unhappily slugging to work, downstairs in the study, *hee* expecting to receive an influx of mails. 14 unread messages. Bah. All business-related. The dullsville i live in. But wait, there was one unfamiliar name.

Weeks ago I mass mailed some of my old, good friends from high school..those whom I do not have on msn and barely keep up with, asking for an update blah blah blah Just so I can also update my contacts y'know that sorta thing. And finally I have a respond...from ONE measly person? Then again, I dont even know if i really know this person. It's vaguely familiar but not quite there. You know wat i mean?

Michael Ashcroft.

o_O

O_o

You're prolly thinking why cant I bloody open the damn mail and find out. You see, Im kinda paranoid with all these emerging killer viruses out to sweep clean your beloved data, plus this is my new lappie we're talking about. And this mail had an attachment with a cheesy line "How bout dinner"! The last time I opened some silly "unknown" mail from someone I thought i knew, it revealed an interactive image of two fat Israeli men getting on at each other, with the flashing slogan "Come join us". It was WRONG AND SICK! I probably regurgitated the entire day's meal, plus more. So i had every right to be paranoid.

I run upstairs to my "high school" box that had been all but obliterated by the passage of time. And searched for that little black book. Yes I have one too :p And there it is. Labelled: Crushes/Boyfriends/Guys who like me/Dateables/Ex's. Frantically, I turned to "M". There wasn't much. Marc, Mark, Max...and...Michael. But it was a Michael Lee. o_O So i sat, thinking for awhile. And it FINALLY, after half an hour...hit me that Lee was his middle name. It had to be him!

Back downstairs. Dinner?! Oh this will be fun. *Click*

Simplelistique

This morning steffie got the surprise of her life.
Mummy made Toad in the Hole for breakfast!
AND Pigs in Blankies
AND Spotted Dick :p

Ho Ho Ho

I asked why the sudden, rush of childhood culinary...

"Oh, you're babysitting your cousins today"

"But but but...I'm meant to be working today!"

"It's okay, take it as a day off"

CHEH

Blegh.

BUT it's all good. The food compensates all.
My special serving of spotted dick, is none other than
mum's fusion of B&B pudding. I have Bailey's in mine!
Because she assumes I'm older than I was before,
She drowned the bread with the alcohol (spasm she said, as if!)
Who's complaining! I'm lovin it :) *hick*

I wish i was a little brat too,
with circumscribed responsibilities.
Eating and sleeping.
What I do best *hee*
And everything so unequivocal.



As i sat devouring the goodness,
a nuisance of a fly was circling
round and round my head.
Is my hair really that enticing?
Must be the new shampoo :p
Round and round it went.
It's okay, it's not worth the trouble..

Round and round it went again.

That does it! KNNCB
I stood up, stuck my tongue out and
SWALLOWED THE MOTHERFUCKER!

......

o_O

Ofcourse not! I wish i did :p
I told the brats to grab the electric flyswatter,
and i got rid of it the most humanely uncouth way possible.
Yessiree. I am a woman of contradictions. :)
