Coming to AMEDIKA (America)

Hubs and I finally got our U.S. Visa 10 freaking years!!! Ha ha ha...long and painful process but we have gotten over that… long because we have to wait 2 hours before being interview by the officer. Painful cause I compiled all supporting documents for the interview and the officer could not be bothered!

Thought it was all over Q-ing up and all… until yesterday after coming back from KL, we realize that hubs visa under gender he was a FEMALE!!! Ha ha ha….after all the teasing and laughing subdue we realize SHIT! He will not be able to enter the States with a visa error. JADI (so) we would have to go back to KL this coming Monday to get it fixed! STUPID!

Anyhoos… dramas dramas…we are heading to the States on Valentines Day! I am very excited over it but not looking forward for the long haul flight to the other side of the world! I got so many things I wanna see and do. First things first, I have to eat at Morton’s Steakhouse! And get my Bottega bags and many many more things…aahhhh and ride in a helicopter over the Grand Canyon and aahhh stay at Caesars Palace, Times Square, 5th Avenue, Golden Gate Bridge, Central Park!!!!! Am going to go crazy!!!

The 70s Show

We were so free last night that the boys decided to do a dress rehearsal for my company’s annual dinner.

Theme: Retro ‘70s

This is what went on in my house!

I have new found respect for my hubs… he is such a sport! LOVE HIM even though he looks like a man trying to be a woman trying to be a man!

My Heroes Marathon

OK…so what if I suffer from numerous addictions…Facebook, updating my blog and my latest, coffee…chasing Heroes Season 1.

I got the DVDs last week… and I told myself that I will not and must not finish it in a week… I have to spread out the episodes like maybe 2 episodes in a week… BUT!!! Knowing me… I finished it in 2 days…yes…I am guilty…I have no will power… I am greedy…impatience…IT WAS SUPER EXCITING!!!

My episodes chasing this time is not as bad as the last time I was chasing a Korean drama “Winter Sonata” That I finished in 3 days…poor hubs, he had to put up with many of my s**t during that marathon…burnt lunches and dinners, me crying most of the time, talking to myself, stench from my body for not changing out from my PJs in 3 days and the constants update on what is going on.

This time around, I am more composed, I made sure there is proper lunch and dinner (not burnt mind you!), I did the laundry, mop the floor, bathe and I change my clothes and wash my hair!

I know I am like super slow… millions of people have already finish Season 1 and is starting Season 2.

My favorite hero is Hiro… I find him absolutely adorable and optimistic despite being responsible for “saving the cheerleader, save the world”

Anyhoos, I wish I was addicted to work!

Serious Addiction

I think …no… not think…I AM addicted to Facebook! The very first thing I do in the morning when I come into the office is to log into Facebook… what has gotten into me??? Too free?? aarrgghhhhh

That cruel thing online… I have abandoned my Friendster… I tell you Facebook adds on to my procrastination!!

I have a Fluff pet with a name such as GIRACORNY!!! (I think I am the corny one)

I am hooked onto Texas Hold’em

I am busy seizing, capturing and raiding other nobles on Knighthood

I am busy throwing something, or abusing someone on Poke Pro

Giving people Nicknames

Tagging people with Superlatives and Doodles

Giving people Hatching Eggs and Growing something

I think I am in need of help…. Is there a Facebook Anonymous that I could attend??

Just A Piece Of Meat

I am hungry!

Sooooo…I am going to talk about Kobe Beef. Kobe beef is actually meat from the black Tajima-ushi breed of Wagyu cattle, raised according to strict tradition in Japan. This practice includes feeding the cows a diet of sake and beer, and daily massages to relieve muscle stiffness. Basically… a “tai tai” (lady of leisure)/ “tauke” cow.

This would then result in super expensive price for well feed, well massaged piece of meat. Actually people rave about the tenderness of Kobe beef, the well balance fat content that melts in your mouth and so on.

Would I actually pay exorbitant amount of $$ just to taste Kobe Beef? NOPES!!! But my Dad did!!! He bought us Japanese dinner last weekend and on the table was KOBE BEEF!!! RM140 per 100 grams! Crazy!

Verdict…. It was superb! Oh so tender…the fat is actually soft and not chewy and it melts… the smell of the beef was not strong and OH MY GOD!!! It was heaven…

For those who are not into red meat… I can be seen as a nut case… its just a bloody piece of meat… but let me tell you… this is no fillet mignon… this is on another league of its own!!!

So after having the super ex and a superb piece of meat… I will just leave it till the next time some kind soul to buy me Kobe beef again… It’s just to expensive for me… I will settle for a normal piece of beef.

Another another Death

OK… I think the month of January year 2008 is cursed! It’s the 3rd death, our cousin Pat just pass away this morning!

Whatever

I am having dinner with a bunch of old old men! My loving Dad is dragging me to have dinner with some of Penang’s most influential businessmen… why? cause he thinks I need to know more successful old people than useless snobbish yuppies! Basically he wants to motivate me to make more money! WHATEVER!

Sooo…I am dragging hubs along… poor guy…he he he

His Royal Ugliness

I have told my Dad many many times, not to feed His Majesty Scottie Meow “human food” Why? cause his skin will itch and he will start scratching and then his skin will be infected.

But NOOOOO…Dad always feeds Scottie the best part of meat, veggies, fruits, chocolates, fish, prawns…whatever that Scottie wants except his cardboard dried dog food. (Actually I have tasted it before… I understand why Scottie hates it!)

Last week, poor Scottie was itching mad… and Mom took him to the vet yesterday and voila… food allergies… Dad says it wasn’t him…the maids said it wasn’t them… he must have eaten off from either, Bronzie’s bowl or Dexter and Dee Dee’s bowl…

Consequences…a few jabs and this….

SO UGLY!!! The vet shaved off all his hair!!!He looks like that ugly Chinese dog… (dunno what it’s called). Scottie got upset when I teased him… at the end of the photo session he just walked away and sulked at one corner refuse to answer me! Ha ha ha…

He is still our baby in the family...no matter how he looks like!!

fashionJunkee

I am such a shopaholic… why? I just bought 2 dresses off the net… I NEVER DO SUCH THINGS!!! But I did it!

I was browising through Karen’s Blog and her recent entry was a review on the dresses she got from fashionJunkee… so…click click I went… and by the end of 2 hours… I was typing in my credit card number! Brilliant! Now I hope the dresses reaches me in one piece and that it fits me!

My In-Laws Are Here!!

Just Be Happy La la la la la.....

My entries have been super duper depressing!!! Soooo… to make me feel better and to lift my spirits…PHOTO TIME!!! :)

And It Continues...

Bummer, more bad news… yesterday my kitchen pipe got block and I could not use my kitchen, wash my clothes for the whole day… finally when the plumber came and fix it, I thought my problems were over…

Nopes… I now have a tooth and gum infection! Hurts so much and now I am on a soft diet cause I can’t chew… FanTAStiC!!!

My in-laws are coming up to Penang on Friday for a short holiday and “makan-makan” and I am stuck with an infection…talk about bad timing!

OK Stop it… like what Irene said, things will only get better from now on… Irene I need you to pray for me! Well the only thing which is normal is that my monthly visit from Aunty Flow for this month is normal.

I should not whine so much… I am just sharing the small things in life that could go wrong and f**k everything up! That is LIFE!

2 Deaths In A Week

On the day we cremated my cousin brother, The report came out stating he has got a growth on his artery near his heart. I thought how is my family going to go through his sudden death? … But my family is strong, my aunt is a strong woman, she will live her life without feeling sorry for herself.

That night itself, I got a call from Shuzanne, telling me that we HAVE to meet up since every time she comes to Penang I am either not around or not free. I was not feeling well that night, but I took some pain killers and went to meet her. She still look the same, beautiful as ever and bubbly… chattering non stop. We even plan to go Langkawi end of the month!

At 7ish the next morning, I received a text message “Shuzanne pass away earlier this morning…hit n run” I was shock beyond anything, I sat on my chair and just stared at my phone. Reality hit, calls were made, she died from brain damage when the car hit her and she flew.

Both so young, both had a full life ahead, both had been robbed of their lives

2 deaths in one week... please God, let this end... I do not want anymore bad news...

Life Is Fragile...

We met over oysters and beer
You made me feel so comfortable around whole bunch of strangers
With your chattering and laughter, you never fail to amuse me with your antics
You are beautiful, successful, smart, sweet and the nicest person I’ve ever met
You had a full life ahead of you with so many family and friends that loves you
I never knew that the last time we met it would be our last
Why would you be robbed of from all this?
A question that no one can answer
You will be dearly missed and never forgotten
May you rest in peace Shuzanne

Super blur day…why?

1. The person that I do not want to have anything to do with has finally made contact.
2. Certain obligation has to be fulfilled.
3. No FAT bonus despite fantastic result but at least I’ve got increment!
4. My young cousin brother just pass away in his sleep.
5. My reception is resigning!

Not sad, not happy, just felling weird…

ME: The Great Procrastinator!

Because I am the great procrastinator… my big boss wanna see my year end report… and I know I should have prepared it like last week or maybe beginning of last month with estimates and follow up with actually figures… I did not!

So right now…I am like a crazy woman plucking figures from other people’s report and consolidate them… should be easy right?? Nah…not when you don’t do regular reporting and leave it to the very LAST minute!! Serves me right la!

Now I am praying my figures are all correct and hoping for a big FAT bonus!!! Muahahahaha…

So I can buy the following:
1. A new lense for hubby which cost a bomb!
2. A diamond hoop earrings which hubs refuse to buy for me so I will get it for myself.
3. More décor for the house.
4. A Holiday…far far away
5. More shoes
6. More bags

I am not only full of myself… I also need the fat bonus so I can give money to:

1. My mother in law
2. My grandma and grandpa
3. My Uncle Ah Cheng (he is a bit slow… not retarded but slow… but he loves me!)

Reason why my mom and dad is not on the list… they will understand… he he he

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
