Where’s 2007 Gone?

I wrote a post earlier but it was somewhat depressing that I decided not to post it. Not good to spoil other people’s mood for the new year! I believe in keeping all these solemn moods to myself and not to let others be affected. I am a woman, I am allowed to have mood swings. But that doesn’t mean I should inflict consequences from my mood swings to others!

I think I am rather glad that there are more days in 2007 when I woke up in the mornings, feeling very happy and content than depressing ones.

I am glad, despite losing my things due to two thefts in a week; no one in the family is harmed. The family members stick together till the end to help solve problem – but not before I acted like some paranoid psycho.. but nevertheless, things were solved. Grills were enhanced and locks were changed. The old people in the house are more wary of the impending dangerous era we are living in now, rather than taking things for granted and having this it-won’t-happen-to-me attitude. And I have reasons to get a more powerful lap top to ease my addiction to blogging and facebook! Hehehe!

There were some days in 2007 when I prayed hard and hoped that, by the time I wake up in the morning, I look into the mirror, I like what I see. I never did. In fact, I hope things would be as easy as pressing the ctrl-alt-delete button when it comes to dealing with my long battle of weighty issues. You know, just a start all over again. Or better still, I sometimes wish that I would just sleep and never wake up. Physical attributes in this shallow society is vital. I wonder when I would ever realize that size does matter. Ah well, I hope my ego would not run out till the end of my days. And yes, I minimized time spent looking into the mirror too. Now you know why my hair is always out of place.

Patience is wearing thin in the friendship department. I broke a few friendships this year due to some petty reasons. Hello? I am a woman. I am supposed to be petty. Friends who have been taking me for granted are shown the door, those who belittled my beliefs are thrown off the window and some; for no apparent reasons – we just ran out of topics for conversations or stop talking altogether.

However, I am blessed to have a few friends who still stick to the end and was happy to have met some new kindred spirits this year. Some friends, even if you have spent so many years together, it is still befuddling that you still don’t really know them. I have learned a lesson this year. It’s good not to give too much thoughts and show your over caring nature to friends. Some might deem it as a breach to their privacy. For me, I have come to a point where – if you enjoy my company, I am okay to go out with you. If you don’t have time for me, it’s ok. I hope you keep well.

On the running of our government, I think I would let other bloggers do the dirty job by complaining and complaining. I have stopped whining since I stopped reading the Star a few months ago. I didn’t want to pay money to read rubbish. I can’t wait to cast my vote this coming March.

I had a few conversations with some friends and found out how depressed (and depressing!) they all are. Geez. Some even had to resort to taking prosaics after being unable to cope with stress. Sometimes, we always think we are the worst lot in the world. There are more depressed people out there who cannot handle themselves. What I could do is to offer a listening ear and give them words of encouragements. The rest is up to them. Our destiny is in our own hands. It is up to ourselves and some support from friends to make it through this life. Come on lah! There are so much life to life itself that you have to wake up and see what this life is all about, even if you don’t understand it!

Well, I know this post is still quite depressing but it’s not as bad as the first one drafted.

I will be spending my last few hours of 2007 in the company of some good friends in church. YES. You didn’t read it wrongly. Please. I am not that young anymore to frolic in pubs, rubbing against sweaty bodies and get drunk. Nevertheless, I wish you all a very happy new year 2008. May this New Year bring us endless happiness, good health, peace within, friendships and much, much love.

Hitori

A friend said to me, if she had a choice, she would live in her mom’s basement the rest of her life; surfing through the internet, flipping books on techie stuffs and be a super nerd. She told me when she was much younger, she used to loiter around town by herself, sat at one corner and observed people. She could even eat alone in restaurants. Naah.. unfortunately, she is too pretty to be living in her mom’s basement and got married instead! Haha!

When it comes to shopping, I usually do it alone. I prefer to take my time to browse through things I want to buy and not worried where my friends would be. And I don’t think I have enough patience to shop with others. For example, I simply couldn’t tolerate people who is torn between a black or brown purse and took the entire hour just flipping the same thing over and over again. Or worse, people who negotiated a bargain and then decided not to buy anything.

I thought of my college days. I remember once, I was overstressed with studies that I need to get movie fix. In that week alone, I watched 3 movies – one with friends and two movies alone. From that day onwards, I think I could do movies alone and sometimes, whenever I was on leave, I would just go to a cinema and buy a ticket. Once, since a friend stood me up last minute, I went on ahead and watched Armageddon at the now-defunct rat infested Rex Cinema in Petaling Street.

Yesterday, while waiting for a friend to catch a movie together, I was loitering in KLCC alone. I didn’t want to have dinner at first. But since the stomach grumbled till no end, I relented. I had the nice lam mee from the Noodles shop on the top floor of KLCC. As I was walking through the food court, I saw a few ladies having dinner alone themselves. When I chose a spot to plunk my ass, there was a lady sitting right across me. She was also dining alone. At first, I was tempted to sit with her and strike a conversation but it would make her think I am a bloody maniac (and probably confirm I am a lesbian), given the current circumstances where any act of strangers are deemed malicious.

I recollect memories of yesteryears with fondness where we could simply strike up conversation without worrying the other party having malicious thoughts. I remembered once after college, I went to White Castle to have a meal and there was another lady eating alone. We just smiled at each other and sat together and had the longest conversation. Those were the days.

I always had lunch alone when I was in college, usually a quick bite of tuna croissant with coffee at Meidi-ya before attending classes and going for a swim at Bukit Jalil swimming pool right after college. I did this all by myself.

I miss the old days of doing everything alone and not being afraid at all.

*Hitori means alone in Japanese

Are You A Lesbian?

Silent night, holy night

I was at Datin’s house last night for the annual Christmas dinner. Datin has been hosting dinner parties for as long as I could remember, ever since a few of us helped him out to move in a few years ago. Wah.. climbing 5 flights of steps and bringing mattresses down is not a joke!

The dinner yesterday was anything but boring.

I got to meet a few new friends. Raymond – a very fair looking gentleman with acute allergies to the sun. Gan – a quiet and unassuming guy. Annuar – a very handsome dashing young man. The rest were the regular “parasites” at Datin’s party – ML, Dan, Andrea, Pat, Henry, Ian and myself. Hahahhaha!

There was a slight communication problem as the regular parasites tend to bitch about work and career.. and politics (highly stressful) while the other gang – about men and bragging how colorful their sex lives are. Well, not exactly. I am making conclusions out of eavesdropping some of their conversations. I can’t help it. Those bitches were really loud! Haha! For example…

Eh.. I bumped into so-and-so the other day! He still looks damn good! Has he recovered from gonorrhea?

Hmmph.. now we know who chills better at parties. The wonderful gay men.

The nice Christmas Spread

When I was helping out to wash the dishes, I felt a sudden gush of wind.

Me: Wah.. here very good lah! Very airy! Fong leong sui lang!

Datin: No lah! I switch on the fan for you lah!

Hahahahahah!

When we were attacking the Christmas spread with gusto, one of the guys asked Datin –“Are they L?”

Muahahahahahha!!!

Yes! We are L. L stands for ladies! Not lesbians! We love men very, very much.

As we were checking out some men from facebook – some of them commented the guys I said cute were way too young. I retorted by mimicking their favorite phrase throughout the night – Age doesn’t matter! It’s only sex what! Hahaha!

So, how did you spend your Christmas? Hope it’s as colorful as mine! Merry Christmas!

Merry Making

* Warning! Glutton post ahead

On Wednesday night, I was at the Curve (again!) for YY’s birthday party. It was a small and not-so-quiet gathering at the Apartment. When I told a friend, I am going to the Apartment tonight, she asked – whose apartment? Someone is cooking for you again? You lucky bitch! Hahahahha! Well, I guess the Apartment at the Curve does not need anymore introduction as I could see some bloggers blog about it. The food is quite ok lah.. but a bit too pricey. I whipped out my Cybershot K770i to test its ability, and ended somewhat disappointed. Must practise more! We adjourned to have coffee at Winter Warmers after dinner.

Thursday started with me waking up late for an appointment. I woke up at about 10 am and was shocked that I needed to be in Cheras by 11 am. I bathed at the speed of a Tasmanian Devil and this time, I managed to comb my hair and arrived at my friend’s place by 10.45 am. I was early!

We went to my ex colleague’s newly acquired loft in Cheras to go ooohhh-ahhhs. It was very nicely done. Her mom knows that I love her home made yam cake and she deliberately baked one for me to bring home. Her mother even made blueberry cheesecake, which is also my favorite, meehoon Siam and ayam masak merah. Fuyoh! What a feast! We ended chatting about old colleagues, trips to come and indulge ourselves in latest gossips. Well, it’s an all-girls outing, what do you expect if not gossips?

Later on, after yakking for a few hours, I went to another friend’s place for the I-damn-stressed-out-buying-gifts Christmas party. Well, I think I was rather glad to be invited. This is a group of friends who doesn’t care what you gotten for them. All they want is your company to share a good joke and just to be with you during festive seasons. I am so damn happy that one of my presents consisted of 2 books of Haruki Murakami – After Dark and Birthday Stories!

Going out for Christmas parties ain’t that bad at all…especially when you get free food and free coffee for buying presents last minute. Hahahha!

I guess this is what Christmas is all about.. you get to spend time with people that matter most to you. Never mind the presents. I haven’t thanked my friends enough to let me be a part of their lives. I can’t wait for another round of Christmas get-together at Datin’s this coming Monday!

PS. Forgive me for the lack of quality in the photos. What to do? Handphone’s camera mah!

Super Broke

I couldn’t believe I got myself the most expensive Christmas presents – ever!

I have been busy playing with my newly acquired toys and finding time to get used to them – my new lap top and also a new handphone.

As you are aware, my old R40 was stolen in August. While waiting for the PC fair, my brother was kind enough to loan me his Lenovo V100 3000 which is a very small and chic lappie! Initially I wasn’t very used to the 12-inch screen that I had to squint to read but now I am loving it! Unfortunately, it costs about RM4,000 and way off my budget.

I went to PC fair two weeks ago and acquired Lenovo Y410. If you ask me, why Lenovo? It’s because my brother is working in Lenovo and I get personal service if shit happens. I hope not – touch wood.

I chose Y410 because it’s such a beautiful lap top! It runs on 2G RAM Centrino Duo, T5450, 160G HDD and has Bluetooth, 5 types of card reader and webcam. Well, a friend commented why I would need a webcam. I don’t need it actually. In fact people find me more appealing and amusing when they don’t see my face.. so… anyway, before I deviate, PC fair gave me an offer I couldn’t refuse. It only costs me RM2,450 and comes along with a whole big bag of goodies and Microsoft wireless mouse. So people, if you want a new lappie, get it during PC fair.

Last Sunday, I got myself a new Sony Ericsson K770i after the old handphone died on me last weekend. The old one suddenly turned off by itself and could not be revived. Then, it switched on by itself. When I key in my password, it could not recognize. When I managed to switch it on, all my boss’ instructions via text messages were erased! Wah lao! Shini! (Japanese: Die!) I didn’t need anymore reason to get a new handphone.

Since I only use my handphone to make calls and sms, I didn’t think I would get such an expensive one. When I scouted around, this was the only Sony Ericsson that made a deep impression on me that I have to have one. I don’t know the specs but leave it to ML to decide. Since both of our phones died on the same day, we decided to buy together to get better discounts. We went to Low Yat and got this one at RM1,040.

For the past two days, I have been loading the phone with mp3s from my old CDs. The entire office are littered with Sean Kingston’s Beautiful Girl song that it sort of makes me sick! I am using mostly movies soundtrack as ringing tone and would stick to some oldies from the 60s. My cousin is complaining of my lack of taste and said, people might just know how old I am from listening to the ringing tones I chose. I suka lah!

I went to the Curve last night to change a pair of pants I bought for my sister and took the opportunity to test the Cybershot function. It’s a bit too small for my grip and I was a little clumsy with it. Will need some time to get used to this camera phone.

Went on last minute shopping for Christmas over the weekend. Kinda annoyed with the whole Christmas thingy. I do not intend to buy anything this year. Mana tau… someone had bought things for the rest of us that made us felt obligated. I should have just stick to my guns to give BIG WET kisses as Christmas presents! That would scare the shit out of my friends and stop inviting me to their Christmas’ parties! Yay! Hahaha!

Now you know why I am so damn broke. Merry Christmas, everybody!

Jump Start

Signs of aging are really kicking in. All I want to do now is to go home after work, do some marketing, take a nice long bath, watch some tv, poke some people in facebook and sleep.

After I signed off work today, my sis gave me a long list of groceries for me to do marketing via Yahoo Messenger.

brinjal – 3-4 pcs
bitter gourd – 1 big batang
fu cuk – leper punya – 3 pkts
bawang besar – 1kg
u write down ya..later forgot

Hhmmph.. guess what mom will be making tomorrow for lunch?

In fact, I have been doing just that the past few weeks without fail. Just when I am about to start bitching about my dwindling social life, suddenly, the phones are ringing and dates are crossed out.

Yesterday, a nerdy classmate suggested we go for coffee to see Sensei before she leaves for Osaka. I think those who had followed this blog since last year would know that there were a few nerds in class whom I don’t like. To be exact – only one female nerd. The male nerd does not have basic communication skills but at least he’s alright.

I wrote an e-mail to a friend who cleverly slipped away from the outing:-

Dear Takane no Hana San,

How could you leave me alone with that bunch of freaky nerds???? Hahahha!

Anyway, Wednesday’s outing was somewhat disastrous.

Boxer decided to bring his entire family to meet Sensei. Not entirely lah. Just his brother who just completed his medicine in Ukraine, Russia and his pretty little sister. The three of them don’t look like each other at all. His brother is HOT! His sister too! So, seriously, don’t know what happened to Boxer. Boxer seemed very blur and phased out – well, what else is new?

As usual, the two nerds came and they started speaking to each other in Cantonese and totally oblivious that Sensei doesn’t understand Cantonese.

The female nerd had just gotten married and she was excited to show her wedding pictures to Sensei and people who don’t know her (Boxer’s siblings) and people who don’t even give a damn (me). She kept babbling and laughing as if she had been gassed and seriously, even if she is speaking Cantonese, I wont understand one shit word that come out from her mouth – except KEKKON, KEKKON, KEKKON. And hey, wait a minute, that is Japanese! I think people who didn’t know what we are talking about, probably thought we were swearing in Hokkien.

We chit chatted in broken English and broken Japanese – with me pathetically throwing some Japanese words as if I were in a refresher class.

As we were busy asking Sensei questions, female nerd and male nerd excused themselves as they do not speak English. Their Japanese is better than English so I think they must have been reincarnated into the wrong country.

So, wadsup this Friday??

I am going to meet my Sensei tomorrow night and bring her to see KL clubbing life before she flies back to Osaka for good.

On Saturday, I will be meeting Ms Cili Padi to bitch. It has been quite sometime since we last trash some common friends on their short comings. Muahahahah!

Sunday, another outing with the girls – normal bitching session. The thing is, I think I ran out of things to bitch with this group. Honto ni???

Come Wednesday, probably will go for some Korean food in Hartamas for a friend’s birthday celebration.

Thursday, will be going to a friend’s house warming party. Hoping to meet another group of friends for dinner later on.

Christmas eve… I hope to get really, really pissed drunk and wasted.

Wow.. I am so excited to jump start my social life!

P.S If you want to know why I listed all my plans here – I find difficulty recalling them. Geez.. another sign of old age.

Making Impression

As sequel to the post, What Women Want –since I couldn’t sleep yesterday, my mind went searching deep for things that people told me or I experienced myself. I know there are some hapless chaps out there who need guidance when it comes to dealing with the fairer sex. Since, ladies are called the fairer sex, they have to be dealt with as delicately as possible. Some guy friends complained to me that they don’t know what makes a woman tick. So, I enlist here some of the things that turn a woman on or off.

1. Being Attentive
If you notice, the previous post, a few ladies listed attention as their foremost criteria. Most women would love to bask in attention given. Some women think by getting attention from the opposite sex means, they are still having the “IT” factor to attract males. It would make the women’s ego sky rocket. However, being attentive does not mean stalking. By contacting your girlfriends around the clock to check on her, is not ideal.

A good example of being attentive, when a girl is sick or feeling unwell, getting medicine for her or making her soup would score you high points. Or, remember what a woman tells you – no matter how petty it may be.

On the contrary, if you are not interested in a woman, please stop paying attention to avoid further complications. Women are sensitive lot and sometimes, a good natured gesture could be misread as a promise. Look at what happened to Mr Yum Kong. That woman is insane!

2. Blardy good sense of humour
I remember a friend who never lack of attention from the ladies. He is a nice man to begin with and one thing about him is his ability to make people laugh uproariously. In fact, when he finally married the girl of his dreams, a lot of people who don’t know him asked her, what did she see in him? She said – he makes me laugh.

He said something to me that still ingrained in my mind before he got married. “I know I cannot promise her wealth or luxurious life, but I will make her the happiest person the rest of her life.”

How sweet!

3. Basic communication skills
I think any ladies would like men who have at least basic communication skills. Communication skills here do not mean that you have to babble about yourself as much as possible. When we go on a date, we don’t want to know how much you have in the bank (can we know that? Hahahah), or your cat gave birth to triplets yesterday, how many vacumn cleaners (as well as the brands!) you sell to make pocket money during college days or the weather (when people ran out of things to talk, they talk about the weather).

This goes hand in hand with no. 1. Telling us about you and at the same time – showing interest by asking the ladies about themselves and listen attentively. I know most men would be already thinking of something else as we talk and ask us to repeat. That is very annoying. I particularly cannot stand a man who adores himself too much – he probably looks at himself in the mirror and wanks himself silly when no one is looking.

And last but not least, if you like a woman – you gotta tell her. I don’t think subtle hints work anymore. Women nowadays need assurance of words from your mouth.

4. Wit
Women love witty men! I guess this is the basic instincts for females to sniff out intelligent genes for them to lend their eggs to propagate. Smart men turn women on. I love witty men!

5. Generous
A generous man would score very high in a woman’s book. If you really like woman, I suggest you splurge! It’s not that I am asking you to buy her expensive presents. Small gesture like paying for meals on dates or movie tickets would be good enough. I heard of horror stories of ladies who went on first dates and they had to pay themselves. I know it’s a feminist era – but I always think; a guy should always pay on first dates. And if you were to meet the girl’s girlfriends, it would be great if you would pay for the drinks. You would earn extra brownie points.

6. Decisiveness
I know when you ask a woman what they want to eat – they would say, ANYTHING. So a lot of men wish that all restaurants should have “anything” as part of the menu. So they could order anything (hopefully it’s cow brain) for her. Hahahah! I don’t know about these women but it irks the shit out of me too! I guess it’s better for the man to decide what to eat. Instead of asking her – what do you feel like having? You can try saying – shall we have Japanese tonight? Lebanese? Sudanese? (This is related to No. 1 also – to know and remember what is her favorite food unless she is a stick insect – so probably you would only need to bring her to the barn).

Sad to say, it is always me who call the shots in such situation. And I remember my date telling me he would eat anything. When we settled for pizza – he didn’t even want to eat pizza and had spaghetti instead.

7. Keeping promises
I know most men would promise the world when they are trying to woo a girl. I think this is part of a game. However, I think it’s better for a man not to promise anything if he knew that he would not do it; because it doesn’t only make him look bad – it makes him a f*cking liar.

Once a friend confided in me whether or not to accept a guy as her boyfriend. I don’t know why many friends always seek approval from me as if I were their mother. Hahahaha. Uhm.. anyway, I asked her what does he do? He is a technician. Does he have a plan for the future? Yes, he plans to further his studies (he is only has SPM). I think you should encourage him to further his studies first, then probably spend time to go out with you later once his career is stable. I think it’s better this way.

Exactly like I predicted, she went ahead with him. Love is a complicated thing, it doesn’t make sense. They went out for three years and he still has yet to step foot into the college which is situated just 5 minutes drive away from his house.

They broke up in the end due to a lot of empty promises.

8. Planning for the future
I heard of a friend whose boyfriend wanted to bring her to see his mom after two weeks of meeting! That is so sweet of him! Hahah! Anyway, I am not talking about getting married straight away. When you are planning for the future – include her in part of your plans. It would make her feel very happy.

9. Sweet Talk
Any woman who does not succumb to sweet talk; she either has a heart made of stone or probably deaf. I know a lot of women got sweet talked and sold their lives to their husbands. Well, it work, ain’t it? So, eat more sugar and exercise your tongue (as in talking, I mean).

10. Money
If all else fails – it doesn’t hurt if you could make tonnes of money. Well, this is a materialistic world we are living in now. Then it doesn’t take much to impress the women. They would hunt you down like predators and it’s very hard for you to shake them off! If you have money – you don’t even need to read this post!

Disclaimer: This guide is merely plucked out from my observation and do not entirely reflect the views of the entire woman’s clan. Some women don’t mind not having the above and still be happily attached.

If you notice, I never put in physical attributes as pointed out by Datin. He said he likes men with big bulges in their pants. LOL! Physical attributes requirements differ from people to people.. and since it’s genetic, I don’t think you can do anything about it unless you want to consider plastic surgery. If you have a big bulge like what Datin wanted – I don’t think you would have any problems drawing women to you!

What Women Want

After about 20 years of marriage, I’m finally starting to scratch the surface of what women want. And I think the answer lies somewhere between conversation and chocolate.

Mel Gibson

The other day, I had a conversation with an old friend on why she is still single. She is a cute girl – looking somewhat Japanese, long black cascading hair, good sense of humour and very down to earth. So, it’s very puzzling that she is still unattached at age 29.

Friend: I just want a guy whom I could feel comfortable with.

Hearing that sentence sent my “something-is-very-wrong” senses tingling.

Me: Define comfortable.

Friend: He ah.. must be ambitious, good to his own parents, good family background lah, pleasant looking, pays me lotsa attention and rich!

Me: You call that comfortable ah????? THAT IS TOO MUCH!!!

I retract describing her – down to earth. Hahhahaha!

So – what is it that a woman wants? I guess it defers from woman to woman. (Even so – there were still bitches and sluts out there trying to compete for people’s husbands and boyfriends, sigh)

Once, I went out with a guy who has rotten and decaying front teeth. The tooth fairy obviously has long forgotten about him. When he spoke, you could feel air coming from the “hole” aerodynamically to your face. When he was trying to eat German sausages, I stole some glances to see how he chewed. Yeah! I am that terrible.

He boasted that he had slept with a number of college girls and the college girls couldn’t get enough of him. Some even catfight for his affection. Most of us might think – other than physical appearance, there might be something else that attracts these women to this unruly haired guy, rotten teeth, no steady job, reminds me of my late grandmother (coz he smells like her! God bless her soul) and still living with his mom. Till today, I couldn’t be bothered to figure out why.

I have a friend who is never short of companionship from the opposite sex as she is very beautiful. Everywhere she goes, heads would turn. After numerous attempts of finding the ultimate romance, she ended up with the ultimate loser amongst the sea of men. I asked her, why she didn’t try to get at least a man with a decent job (Hello? Basic requirement?) and a man who respects her privacy and dignity.

She said, among the men she dated, she felt safest with this guy because he’s not good looking, penniless and totally devoted to her. (Of course! She is the one wearing pants in the house and he is jobless) So he won’t be able to be infidel and remain faithful to her. Unfortunately, if a guy who has no front teeth could get girls fighting for him; this ugly and poor bastard could also get a chance to fool around, in which he did! And now, they are divorcing. I couldn’t be happier for her!

So what is it that women want? I still haven’t found an answer in my own question. This morning, I spoke to a few girlfriends – singles and attached as well, by asking them what they want from a man.

Betty*, single, age 33 said
Caring, attention, mature financially and mentally, if he can provide basic 5Cs then, it would be great, but, what I want most is : we can communicate..

Wah… 5Cs some more. *Shook head*

Pamela*, single, age 33 said
I want attention, and able to guide me mentally, emotional support, a down to earth person, and not calculative, sense of humor, kind hearted, also financially stable, romantic, dare to take the lead

Sounds like job description to me. Hahahaha!

Pink*, single, age 31 said
Freedom, money, health, love, friendship, quality of life

Sounds like values plucked out from Pendidikan Moral book. LOL.

Lily*, dating for 2.5 years, age 31 said
Someone resembles my dad, caring, understanding, kind, humble.

This girl is totally unmaterialistic.

Lilac*, single, age 31 said
I just want men to relax on their first date and not just keep babbling about themselves for the sake of filing in the silence gap. My fundamental is communication.

So simple ah???

Hot Cookie, single and being pursued, age 31, said
Respect, caring, know how to listen, girls need attention, a person to listen to, not necessarily need to respond, retaliate or debate.

Uhm.. I think I prefer people to respond, retaliate and debate. A hot debate or argument would spice up a relationship. Ah…. I so the drama queen!

At least, these powerful and capable ladies know what they want from men.

I think there is no perfect answer in understanding what women want. Women are not made to be understood, they are made to be respected, cared for and ultimately, loved.

Making My Day

Today at work, there were lots of calls on my handphone from the banks, chinese women, insurance salesman and a few others which I did not even bother to pick up.

Since the Beeper (my boss) was away, I spent time cleaning my cubicle which I had been putting off.

At about 4.00 pm, another anonymous person called me on the phone. Since there was no number on it, I press cancel and did not want to answer.

Later, at 4.09 pm, there was a phone call again on my handphone. This time, I picked it up.

Me (sounded pissed): Hello??
The caller: Is this Ms Cheng?
Me: Yes!!
The caller: I am calling from Fan Lin. I have some flowers to you.
Me: Ah???

When the flowers arrived, there wasn’t much drama as I hoped it would be! Attention whore! Hahahah!

But, my neighbour colleague was gushing over them and grinning ear to ear as if she were the one receiving them.

One si lai said, when her husband proposed to her some years ago, he didn’t even give her flowers. Cin cai cin cai only! So she was very envious.

Mr Yum Kong didn’t like the flower arrangements. It looked odd. Maybe he’s just jealous that he didn’t get one.

Mr Chee Cheong Fan (a senior manager in my office who tapao some Anson chee cheong fan for us, and hence the nickname got stuck on him) was delighted to see the flowers and asked if it was my birthday.

A cute colleague took pictures of the flowers with his handphone.

The secretary who got possessed by ghosts teased me if I had a secret admirer.

A friend asked if it was from Mr Tattoo Eye Brow.

Another friend was curious if the person who sent me these flowers, tersalah makan ubat today. (Translation: Took the wrong medication).

Some colleagues asked what the canes are for and wondered if I like S&M? (It’s good to recycle the canes to whip the asses of the three little monsters in my house! Very practical indeed!)

When I told another friend, I got flowers. He asked, wreath or bouquet?

My sister and my cousin, Gas Stove asked if I bought the flowers for myself? HAR HAR HAR!

Datin wanted to marry the sweet guy who sent me the flowers.

Of course, I was partially surprised. I knew about this on Monday night. I arm twisted somebody’s arm to send me the flowers! But I didn’t know he would do it. And I didn’t write the two memes on purpose – Favorite Flowers: Lilies and “When a guy promises to do something for you, listen first. 99% of the time, whatever he had promised you, might not materialized.” It was purely coincidental. (Yeah right!)

Irregardless what other people think, one thing for sure; these lilies surely made my day. It sent me grinning ear to ear – grins bigger than Mr Joker himself!

Thank you so much. You know who you are.
