bad, bad food

i used to love dining at eden. so when they opened at my workplace, i decided to go and check it out. u know what? it was my first and my last. i ordered their specially made burger and my other half ordered a rib-eye. ramly burger tasted much better and the rib-eye? let's juz say that it was done in 3 bites. the service was bad, the food's worse! no one to greet u at the main entrance and there were only 4 tables which were occupied. it was so disappointing that we ate quickly and left.
eden is now officially in the same list with marche.

when buying is not selling

let me tell u a story.
my usual time of arrival at the office is around 10am.
so sometimes when i come at 9am, some colleagues will have this worried look. it's like, 'what is she buying that i'm not buying...??'
i loovveee those worried faces! to get to my room, i hafta pass thru almost 30 ppl and the looks are even worrier if i arrived before 9am. they must be thinking, 'wow! must be something big...'
hahaha
and some even had the nerves to ask.
if they asked 'buying?', i would say 'no, selling...'
and vice-versa.
so, sometimes it's fun to watch because these ppl are not good actors. they will try to look fine but i know what's deep in their heart.
muahahaha....muahahaha...muahahaha...

oh, what a pleasure...

this fatness is killing me

i was browsing thru my old postings and i found out that i always had stories to tell. but lately, it wasnt as interesting as before. is it because now i lack time? or is it because life is juz d same as it was?

upon sending my kids to mum's place this morning, i uttered, 'mum, my fatness is on a worrying level.'
mum : well, u could control ur eating...
me : that, i cannot do.
mum : ok, take my slimming session...
me : i'd love to but i dont have TIME.

that's d thing with me. i dont have enuf time. i've been going to the office for the morning session only and in d afternoon, that's when i spend time with my kids. sometimes mum needed a break and it will be selfish of me if i had said no. though i'm dying to go to the office so that i could catch up on my reading, i juz cant bring myself to leave the kids.

MIND YOUR MANNERS PLEASE!!

why is it so difficult for u to respect the elders?
what right do u have to treat me like trash?
look yourself in the mirror.
look around you.
obviously you dont see what i see.
where are your manners?
didnt your parents teach you how to respect people?
didnt you learn that in school?
i could say a lot of unpleasant things in your face but my conscience prevented me from doing so.
who do you think you are?

a missed open house

supposed to go to a friend's house on sat. really wanted to go but when u have 2 kids in tow, u gotta give it a miss especially when time was stipulated.
sorry friend, will c u and d kids one of these days.

interrupted toilet break

sometimes when ure in a hurry, u dont have time to talk to anybody esp when ure in the loo. at my office, i try my best to be nice to the toilet cleaner. but these ppl take advantage of u when ure super-nice. like this morning for instance, my bladder was really full and the cleaner tried to start a conversation. it would be impolite if i were to go inside without her finishing the sentence. and when i got out, she asked questions that was quite difficult for me to understand in the first place. i juz answered whatever that i could comprehend.
but the cream of the crop was when she asked how much is my salary.
i kept quiet and when she asked,'600 ada ka?'
i juz nod.

all-time fav...

i wish upon a star...

dont mind settling for this

always in my heart

went back to jb to say goodbye. sadness didnt overwhelmed me when we arrived but when we had to pass through both our former houses, that's when it hit me. that's the house that i had held my wedding. i can still remember the goings on that transpired in that house vividly. the place that i had had my first job, the naivety thot that former colleagues had of me.
i could see from the corner of my dad's eyes that he was really sad to leave the place...

boleh blah

i'm still amazed at some who still think they are one class higher than others.
not naming names here but i've had some encounters with these 'perasan' ppl.
'hebat sgt ke diorang ni?'
takdela hebat mana pun sebenarnya. perasan je lebih.
my feelings towards these group of ppl? menyampah teramat.
the way they refer themselves when they talk to u. quite difficult for me to describe but anybody who's been there should be able to relate.
eg : 'i didnt mix with the neighbours coz my dad didnt allow and plus, i used to have a driver.' HELLO??
and juz because they have certain 'blood', it's their right to act that way.
oh puh-leeaseee...
u claim to be from the purest blood in the name of God but i dont see u practising any.

dis coming from ordinary ppl like u and me.
imagine if they have royal blood.

i try my best to avoid these type of ppl but sometimes, u cant help it if u know what i mean.

sabar, kaklong, sabar...

why do some become impatient? not talking bout others. it's me. sometimes i can be very patient and cant stand those who arent but sometimes i juz cant help myself but to be extra impatient. this is d problem ive been facing. i do come up with my own theory like maybe the 'impatientness' will come if i wake up at the wrong time. but sometimes, i do ponder after regretting my negative actions. and most of the time, the results were always the causes of other ppl's stupidity.
like yesterday when i wanted to pick up my dry cleaning after 3 days of failing to enter the premise due to the staff's unacceptable behaviour of going out for lunch when it was obvious that working ppl's free time is during lunchtime, i immediately asked the staff where was she for the past 2 days during lunchtime. she said, she was out lunching. 'takkan takde org jaga?'. i asked.
'dua-dua pegi lunch.'
'mana boleh mcm ni. menyusahkan org je. apa nombor telefon bos awak?'
'saya takde nombor bos. dia tak pernah bagi.'
'ah, penipulah takde phone number.'
'takpe, saya akan cari smp dpt.'

after picking up, i saw one stupid pajero double-parked behind my car. i honked.
terhegeh-hegeh keluar makcik dr kedai dobi, menyeringai.
at that moment, i dont care whether she was old or anything. i can park my car at a designated spot so why cant she do the same. she gave me the sign of 'tunggu sekejap'.
her 'sekejap' was 5 minutes.
she didnt even say sorry. she juz hopped in her car and off she went.
how can i be patient with ppl like these?
it's their stupidity that drives me nuts.

the sequel

asked rania about open season and her answer was, 'tengoklah dvd nanti.'

cis, kureng asem...

but she did save some popcorns for me...

...awww...

the one's having fun is definitely not me

mum has restart her 'jom tengok wayang' program with rania. today they're gonna watch open season. somehow, i feel jealous. coz i was the one who used to bring her and now i cant do it. later, yeah but not at the moment. previously she would never want to part with me but last nite, she asked whether can she sleep with my mum. i didnt say 'no' directly. instead, i said, 'tak kesian omar ke?' sigh...

...to be continued...

raya madness and a blur neighbour

this morning, i was clearing frozen leftovers rendang given to me from my fridge. i felt sad for having to throw it all away. i wanted to hang on to it for as long as i could. is it really too much for having this extreme obsession towards raya?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i used to have this one blur neighbour. last year, when my house was broken into, i called him up to inform of the unfortunate incident. he wasnt at home so when he asked what was missing, i told him that the robbers managed to take a box of jewellery and a laptop.
10 minutes later, he called again and asked how did i know his wife's jewellery was missing?
i was like "what?"
"u told me my house was broken into rite?"
i wanted to say, "no, u moron, it was my house, not urs!"
but i of course i didnt say that.

the irony gets better. a month later, he sold his house and i got a new neighbour.

a few weeks ago, i saw my new neighbour's cat sitting under the sink of a house behind mine. i guess nobody was home so, i smsed him and told him bout it.
soon after, he called me up and asked, "kucing u lari ke?"
again, "what the hell?"
me : i mana ada kucing. i kata, kucing u ada kat rumah blakang.
"ok, ok. i balik sekarang"
i waited until noon but my neighbour was never in sight.
and the cat was gone too...

more and more kiasu ppl

i had an extremely annoying experience while at tesco the other day.
after done with scanning, the cashier asked for a bonuslink card and i said i dont have any.
earlier, ive noticed this one couple behind me kept staring at what i was buying.
'annoying gila'.
when i thot i could immediately pay, the couple asked whether can they accumulate on my behalf. the question was annoying enuf and it didnt help that they asked the cashier istead of me. i gave them a killer look. the cashier didnt say anything but i gave a reluctant yes. thousand excuses for me not to say yes but it's unprintable.
'kang kena ISA plak'.
is it a habit nowadays to ask for other ppls' points?
and to make matters worse, the newly-recruit packer didnt do a good job on packing. ie, food mixed with detergent in one plastic bag. and he had the nerve to hand me a pack of sanitary pads that he 'forgot' to pack.
'bodoh ke apa mamat ni'.
i cant remember what i said to that boy but it was a mean statement.
after shopping, i cooled down myself with a glass of teh tarik.
