I am so glad I am not longer as blur as yesterday. :)

Pissed off Dickhead!

A VERY PISSED OFF ENTRY! Be warned...lots of &^$#@$%#^*%&*^&*)%^$%#

I have consulted with a good girl friend if I should confront this particular person who has been a thorn in my ass for the last couple of months (let's call this person Dickhead)!

So Dickhead is a married man with a toddler. But in my opinion he is not a very "honest / faithful" man. You see, I have know Dickhead since we were in our teens, and well, I can sum up the fact that he is a self centered person.

So I introduced him to hubs and they have been going drinking with other of my guy friends. Boys Night Out, twice a week... pretty harmless rite? Not after Dickhead came into the picture... he will ask all of them to go out 3-4 times a week. Remember, this is a family man! And every time he goes out, there will be some random girls with him. Seriously! you get my gist!

Fast forward... last night, hubs turned Dickhead down for happy hour and decided to have dinner with me and my friends. Halfway thru dinner a girl called hubs, asking him to go drinks with Dickhead and friends!!! Thank God hubs said he is having dinners with his wife and not available and maybe some other time (Hubs can be super obliging at times!!) OK!! Can you all see something wrong here?? If not let me point out! WTF is Dickhead asking some girl to call up my hubs while he knew hubs was having dinner with me??!!! seriously something is effing wrong here!!!

I was so pissed off!!! I told a friend that I should confront him... but she told me no just cool down for a while...so to blow off steam, here is what I would probably say to DICKHEAD!

To mother fucking DICKHEAD:

Seriously, what the fuck are you trying to effing do?? If you wanna effing play around with sluts, do it by yourself and stop influcing others! Stop effing disturb my family and if you cannot take care of your own wife and child dont fucking get married in the 1st effing place!!! Please do yourself a favour and look at the mirror! Do you see a DICKFACE! You fucking two headed snake, self centered ass hole... go stuff ur effing face in the toilet and flush it! LEAVE US ALONE you worthless piece of shit!!!!!

Oh for the LOVE OF GOD!!!! make him go away!!!

Education For Lynn

What happened on a Thursday night with great old friends and margaritas?

Q & A on Cartoons!

How did we get there??

It all started during dinner when Star Trek was the topic of conversation. My friends kept insisting that I go watch it...but then hubs refuse 'coz he thinks he will be betraying Star Wars! ( I also don't geddit!) Anyways, we were talking about the actors and characters and I told them I know 'Spot' - the guy with the white face and looks like a robot! They ALL cracked up laughing!!!! I was like WHHATTTTTT....!!!! There were like its 'Spock' I was like 'Sporks'?This arguement continue on over Margaritas @ TGIF where I kept insisting its Sporks the white dude that looks like ROBOT... they all corrected me and told me it was 'DATA' and I was like who is 'DATA'? and I told them I know 'Sporks' !

I guess they were quite amazed with my "knowldege" they decided to quiz me on cartoons that we used to watch when we were kids. So randomly ,they asked me if I knew Jem? And I told them oh yes Jem and the Misfits!! Wrong!! It was Jem and the Holograms!! That is where it started... I told them Road Runner is a ostrich and they burst out laughing...and told me the Road Runner is actually a name of a bird (REAL LIFE!) I was like NO'efing way! Its an ostrich!!!
I was wrong! A road runner is actually a small bird REAL LIFE!!

More Q & A:

Friends: who is the enemy of Thundercats?
Lynn:'Urmmbala'!!!
*followed by laughing*
Friends: Umbala' is a fruit and its suppose to be 'Mumbera'
Lynn: Well almost close what!

Friends:What is 'She-Ra, Princess of Power' real name?
Lynn: Princess Arora
Friends: Princess Arora is Sleepping Beauty la! Its Pricess Adora!!
(Sounds the same to me!)

At the end of it all... well most of my answers were wrong or slightly" imperfect". I told them in my defense that my grandms's TV is distorted!

This morning, a good friend e-mail me this:

Going Home To Our Other Home

It's the time of the year again, where hubs and I will pack our bags and head back to our adopted home in Melbourne!

Another 3 weeks and we are off. Last year, hubs manage to renewed his PR visa and this year it will be my turn and I really really pray fingers cross that DIMIA will renew my visa status!!!!

Well, it's always a headache when I have to pack up our lives in Penang into 5 suitcases and other smaller bags and unpack it back at Melbourne, and the cleaning and anal-ness starts all over again for 3 whole months! Actually kinda think of it, its the same just different location! But it is all worth it... I think I might have said this plenty times,

I HEART MELBOURNE!!!

...SERIOUSLY!

...so yea... I will go for my "walks" and "cycling" at Jells park or around our housing estate, go shopping at Chaddy, eat ginormous amount of yummy food (and then detox), watch re-runs of FRIENDS again and again and again ( coz we have 2 TVs!!!), spend a lot on COLES, cook up a storm, drink lotsa wine....and YES MAKE BABY!!! always on our agenda but always fail...so this time!! MUST KANA!!!!

So to my Malaysian peeps! I will miss you but then I think you guys had enough of me for a while... I shall dissapear and reappear and that is how you will LOVE me more!!!!

Friday Nite @ Aristo With Anal Queen

As most of you know...I am anal queen of the year! SO particular over cleanliness and order that when I am drunk I am still ANAL!

Story time!

Last Friday nite, I took my Tequila popping ways down to KL and party with my KL peeps! Can't believe I hardly ever party in KL even when I am always there! So after driving for what seems like an eternity from PJ to Jalan Ampang, hubs finally manage to get us there. And after a round of confusion on how to get out of Hotel Maya to Aristo, we finally made it! A friend actually smsed me and asked if "I decided to balik Penang!" Yes that is how long we took!

SOOoooo...after a round of hugs and kisses and introductions to new party mates...the drinking starts... Moet, Black Label and Tequila shots was immediately available! Man, I was gone after my 3 glass of red wine (for dinner), 4 glasses of whisky or was it 8? and 2 shots of Tequila (Aristo serve good Tequila!) I was up shaking my booty... I might have sacred a few people! BUT who cares!!!!!!!!!! ha ha ha ha....

3am...last song and wanted to adjourn to Sultan but sudah tutup! so balik...that is when it all started... the analness while being drunk. I told hubs:

Me: Ok B, I wanna puke dee... so there is tissue paper in my bag and a bottle of water. I say stop you stop. Take the tissue and water and lock the car door! ( analness!!!!)

B: HHmmm *grunts*

He stopped at some random bus stop with a "tong sampah" ( I found out later it was Sri Petaling school bus stop) I got down and PUKE!!! wipe my mouth and rinse my mouth and throw all my rubbish in the dustbin! (Responsible puker) I made sure there were no remains of any puke on my shoes or anywhere near me before I went back into the car! SEE! I am hopeless... drunk dee somemore wanna be clean!!! Oh I went home showered, wash my hair, blow dry my hair before I went to sleep and woke up with a hangover! :)

Chloe Paraty Bag

Katie Holmes latest "IT" bag (Chloe Paraty Bag in Black Python leather) that she has been spotted repeatedly carrying around! Isn't it absolutely amazing...rocker meets chic....chic rock?!

Looks like a sturdy carry-all. You can either sling it on your shoulder or tote it around. VERSATILE and ROOMY! My kinda bag!

So while I was in Bangkok last weekend and as I was walking pass Chloe...I SAW THE BAG...perch on top on a shelve beckoning for me to come in and touch it... SO...I mah go in loh!!! The sales lady in Chloe was absolutely one of the nicest "luxury" shop assistant I ever met... including those in Marc Jacobs, Mulberry (Tods was a bit "lansi") and Balenciaga.

Ok back to the bag, she took it down for me and it was LOVE AT FIRST TOUCH....actually it was already love at first sight but the touch of the soft leather confirmed it was true love (AGAIN!)

So as usual I ask for the price... she immediately told me it's 10% off and extra 7% tax redemption at the Customs! That is a total of almost 20% of savings!! Ok 17% only niah!(Coz it was Mother's Day and Wesak Day Weekend!) I looked at hubs, he turned away giving me the "look" and so we parted...(me and the bag) - SOB *heart cringe and torned* - damn I am "gila" max! And it was the last Red Paraty Bag in Bangkok and I left it there on not in my arms!

Fast forward back to Penang, a quick msg to my evil shopaholic twin and she told that the bag was worth it and in demand and there is a shortage and the colour RED was a HOT item! I was sold! A quick call and msg to my mom (who was still in Bangkok) and task her to check it out! Mom did check it out alright but knowing her she would not pay for the bag...BUT she DID!!! I mean if my dad was there then i was certain he will spoil me again with a new bag... but MOM!! I was shocked!

So there you have it... the newest edition to my family of bags: Chloe Paraty Bag in red leather with gold metalworks.

P/S: I admit...I feel absolutely guilty that I am SOOOO Spoilt!!!!

Sawadee!

So, I am back in Penang for 3 days before going to KL for seminar and spend some time with the in-laws and friends.

Bangkok was tiring and hot! And it does not help when we went back and the apartment was SUPER dusty! So guess who had to clean everything?? Yours truly... but hubs did help with the wiping of the never ending glass panels and mirrors mop the floor while I was busy with all the toilets (4 toilets for a 2 BR apartment!!) and also the kitchen and other misc cleaning. After a day of cleaning, the place looks much livable! Tired but happy... then me and hubs sat down and watch stupid variety show in Thai! ( no...none of us could understand...!)

Day 2 was filled with meetings with bankers and brokers and more meetings! Tired and grumpy...spotted 2 pimples on forehead. Celaka!

Day 3, the parents arrived and went for really good lunch and shopping!!!! There is where I found my Marc Jacobs Runway clutch but I left my heart in Chloe, Balenciaga, Tods and Chanel! Hubs was not impressed at all... so I treat him to banana and sweet potato fritters and juice at the food court in Siam Paragon before swiping his credit card at Marc Jacobs! ( it works ladies...!FEED THE MAM and all is WELL!!)
Happy happy joy joy... and mom is coming back with a Chloe Paraty Bag!!! (think I will let her use it 1st!)

Ok Bye!
