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!

Ramdom-ness From Empti-ness in Boredom-ness

Tomorrow is 1st of May. Once again...where the 'effing hell did the time go??!!

I was down with infected gums! ( yes I brush and floss)

Found love with Twitter. So follow me...and twit twit twit

A Perfect Cuppa Latte @ Home

In case some of you do not really "REALLY" know me and hubs. We are obsessed with a good cup of coffee to the point that we bought NOT one but TWO espresso machines. One for our home in Melbourne and one for our home in Penang!

- our espresso station @ The View-

Yes, we love our lattes and we are always one the hunt for great coffee beans... Please bear in mind, we do make our coffee the brewing way, nor the drip way, nor the instant coffee way. We do it ( well hubby is my personal barista) the correct way!HELL we even have our own coffee grinder just to make sure we have perfectly fresh coffee. And even when it comes to the milk, we search high and low for the perfect combination ( in Penang la, in Melbourne all is good)

-'ze grinder-

-look at the crema!!-

-a prefect cup of latte-

Trust me, it's one of the best in Penang.

Friday Afternoon Inspiration

I dunno why, but today is a super damn B.O.R.I.N.G. DAY! So I mah read blogs loh....like I do everyday, but today more hardcore la! I included many entries posting, lotsa of twittering and FB to the max

Came across Ms Pei Chyi's blog entry! SO funny...I almost fell off my chair!(not literally). So she inspired me to do the same with my office people. Apparently I was the only bored one and not busy person in the office and I forced my hubby/colleague to entertain me.

Margaritas All ROUND!

I HEART MARGARITAS!!

And when I was out for an "all-girl-dinner" last night, Margaritas was on the top priority of 1st things to order!

All of us had at least 1 round of Margaritas ( I had two!!) except for Ms. Klin, who only stuck to water... AISeh! Food was fab, Dammit should not have worn my skinny jeans... my belly was like popping out after the heavy meal. Conversation was very girly, a tiny bit of bitchin...and lotsa laughing and MAN did we attract attention from a lot of people, in particularly MEN, yes old, young, ah pek, ah beng, hotness ang-moh... Nepalese waiter...YES... they were all looking curiously at 6 almost 30 years old ladies having a blast!

A Wolf In A Sheep "Baju" or A Sheep In A Wolf Pants??

Peeps! This gonna be one of those emo crap shit entry... that will most likely turn into a lesson in life! but but... am gonna keep it short...just to make a point!

Sometimes when you meet someone...they seem so nice and all sweet and you fall for every single word they say... you immediately trust them...and they turn into a monster ( well at least for me!) And when you meet a horrible person they turn out to be the most trustworthy person! What has the world come to or has it always been this way?

Have any of you ever come across these kinda people? I have and most of the time I turn a blind eye... until someone point it out to me. KINDA BLIND they will say to me!

Why?WHY?? OH WHY GOD!!!??? ( this is the emo shit crap part) why would people pretend to be someone that they are not? Nice=Nasty, Nasty= Nice?

ANSWER ME...

Me and Baby Bill

Everyone say HIE to Baby Bill!

Yes, one of my best friend gave birth to a healthy baby boy! And yes, he will be very significant in my life just as his mom is! Born on 29th March 2009 the day of his mommy's baby shower!

My Encounter With Johnny Bravo and Gym Bunny Wannabe

So I was at the gym yesterday and I got SUPER pissed off! ( help me out here to justify if I am being CRAZEE for getting upset!)

OK Scenario:

I was the 1st one in the gym and no one was there, so I open all the windows to let fresh air flow through the entire gym. In came a couple, lets call them Dick and Jane. The minute they came in without even considering others they automatically shut all the windows and on both the air con full blast and all the fans in the gym!

OK...I dunno but certain people, but I don't find exercising in "wintery" cold, while it is like 38 degrees outside the gym healthy with no fresh air! Anyhoos, maybe that is how some people like to "gym-it"

Dick and Jane did not have the decency to ask me if I was ok, but I told them that iI am going to off the fans that is directly blowing into my face and leave those on which are near them. They were like "hmm whatever" (what an arrogant DICK!)

So I was warming up and Dick took over my threadmill. OK fair enough my name is not on it so I went on the other machine. Technically if I remember that on off the basic gym etiqutte is to limit the machine use to 30mins if others are waiting to use it. Well...noooo, Dicko and Jane decided to go on it for like 40-50 mins while I was waiting to use it for a run! *roll eyes* In the end I just stuck to my own machine. (fuck)

So while I was doing my cardio, I seriously felt the chill from the aircon, so I decided to open the blinds directly in front of me to let the sun in to warm me up (note that by me opening my blinds, it doe snot in anyway affect them as they were on the other side of the room) Dick being a jerk came and close my blinds!!! WTF!!! I got off and open it back and gave his a very pissed off dirty look! All this time Jane was like full on make up running on the mill looking all like a typical gym bunny!

After I finished all my workout, I close back the blinds and on the remainding of the fan full blast and slam the door!

I should have given a piece of my mind to them but I was not sure if I was over reacting. But if I ever see them again, I WILL GIVE THEM MORE THAT A PIECE OF MY MIND!!! WHAT FUCKERS!!!

So tell me... Am I entitled to get pissed off and what should I have done!

P/S they do not have hot bodies and they are fugly! basically wannabees! awrrghhhh IDIOTS!

Creating Havoc And Leaving Trails Of Chaos

I realised that where ever me and my friends go and plus the element of booze and good music = TOTAL CHAOS!

Be it clubbing or pubbing or just hanging out at someone's house or someone's pool or by the beach...anywhere! We create havoc!

This is my life now... and has been ever since I can remember. So I was thinking... this will all end when I am pregnant and when I am a mom. But I must say it first, I will missed the craziness and the uncontrollable drinking and partying but at least I ENJOYED IT!

Am I ready to move on...YES I AM!

I am ready to give up my partying ways till maybe my kids are like old enough>

But for now, I am just enjoying my life as it is! :)

"Gym-ing"

I just started "gym-ing" ( got such word ar?) anyhoosss... After detoxing on and off I have decided I will never achieved my 50kgs if I don't to some exercise...you know the traditional way. So yea...to the gym I go... actually I am so darn flabby, and that made me decide.
So, on Monday I went to the gym in my apartment... did 40 mins of cardio and alost died! Yes I am sooo unfit... I sweat like nobody's business even my undies and bra was drenched in sweat! (yea a bit gross!) .

It was a good feeling after that...even I know I did not lose anything except for water. But I felt different... yea right after one day on the mill I am suddenly FIT! bah! So so, yesterday I told hubby to come with me to the gym for motivational purposes... but he is more interested in sitting in from of the stupid plasma and play PS3, (to him that is his form of exercise.) Well...too bad...I went to the gym again and did 40 mins cardio again, sweat like $%^*()$% again! felt like DYING again!

TODAY! I am going AGAIN! if it does not rain then maybe I wanna go for a swim... kinda boring being in the gym all alone! Sigh I hope this will last! Or maybe last until I see some result.

** Need to include toning exercises!!- but have not a CLUE!**

New Toy Of The Week - BlackBerry Curve 8900

I HEART!

Trying to get hubby to pick up the bill! *fingers cross*

My Big Drama

What happens when two terrified 29 turning 30 year old women sees a tiny lizard the length of a pinky?

You will hear spine chilling terrifying horror movie screaming!

Yes. That picture was in my house on last Friday night at approximately 10.30 pm.

In Brief:

Khenglin was suppose to be at my house at 10pm to dress up and then headed to SOHO for a night of fun. By 10.30pm, still bra-less, dress-less, the doorbell rings. DAMMIT!!! I was still half naked, grabbed the nearest dress to me on the floor (ugly silver and purple tube dress that is 2 sizes to big- which Khenglin immediately disapproved when she saw it!) and went to let Khenglin in.... she was like "Babes whats whrong, why aren't you dress" and the next thing I did was look up and saw a tiny lizard on the ceiling!

I SCREAM, Khenglin SCREAM in confusion

I POINT to the lizard, She SCREAMS MORE

I continue sreaming and jumping up and down.

Finally when we managed to calm down, we realised that the lizard was inbetween me and Khenglin. I was connered! Khenglin being brave despite her FEAR for lizards got a broom and Sheltox... I just hid in my dressing room and she settled it for me... well she manage to scare the yucky lizard into some crack between the ceiling and cabinet. Then we started kncking on the cabinets hoping it will come out so we can spray it with bug spray...it decided to stay there! DAMN!

We manage to dress up silently and knowing the blardy lizard is still there and everytime we walk pass the cabinets our head will turn to watch out for it! PARANOID !

SOOOOOoooo......

My Theory On Lizards:

Hubs was away in Langkawi for the weekend.
Lizards came out to play.
I swear that the lizards are out to get me!
