was the proposal of my colleague. ambitious id say. even for machas, no pun intended. "eh.. if Rudy & JJ can work for 50 hours, we can drink for 50 hours ! " *said VERY VERY enthusiasitically mind you, whilst walkin to lunch*5 indian guys & me. the dude. oh well, at least everyones gettin into the spirit of things. YAY for Malaysia! eh.. 50 years is quite a big deal . we hav come a LONG LONG way for 50 years. heck! even in the past 5 years, i'd say. so kudos to all, and needless to say, even I am feeling pretty patriotic this time around. infectious this spirit is. infected i have become.I'VE EVEN GOT A FLAG ON MY CAR *lookin VERY proud of myself*to some, its a milestone of plenty. for most, its another reason to party.not like we really need an excuse to party, but really... it just makes u feel a LIIIIIL bit better for drinkin that much ...AGAIN. especially with the horrendous onset of wats soon to become.. or has already become... a beer belly *shuddeeeerrrrs* "I do 10 leg-ups for every bottle of beer I drink,How else do you think I still have this mega flat-ass toned tummy ?"said, NOT me. me: DAMMIT.. i should do that. ya.. sure.. someday.next week.after merdeka. *pats tummy, feelin rather embarrassed*RIGHTits 3:45pm. party marathon starts TONITE. YESSSHHHHHHH !!! *pumpin fists in the air*
without my cameraits been... 2 weeks since my baby sister Nisa left for the US of A
and 2 weeks since the camera the took off on that plane with her. fuck!
and since, iv been completely and utterly dependent on my other i-cant-live-without-my-camera friends who literally bring theirs EVERYWHERE ! *writhin in absolut envy* followed by my constant bugging..."oi,oi.. pass me the pics la"
"upload them on facebook, tag me, tag me !"
pathetic, i amthen like salt to an open wound...
"eh.. ur blog to wordy la. needs more pics"
bastards
but, yes, thanks 4 the constructive criticism *pats u on back*...
and then *spanks u hard when u turn around 2 secs later*
and its also been abt a week since i last blogged.
bogged down is the word.
with work. with friends. with housework *gag gag*
and YES *ting ting* *flashes of light*
a miracle happenedi cleaned my room
i can now walk ... thru the middle
*smug grins*
PLUS,PLUS.. its OCD compliant. Miss OCD herself, Carol BISING Leong, walked in ,me lookin on , hands halfway to my ears already to block out the incomin NOISE.. and then....silence"its not that bad wattt?"
me lookin on in utter disbelief, @_@
hah !so yeah. its been a pretty weird monday.
massiv lows + incredible highs. all in 24 hours. like that damn show that apparently most of our parents are hooked on. mother dearest included.
i think its the weather.
but yes. to make up for my absence the whole of last week . heres a brief summary , or more like, what little i can remember of, the blur of which was last week
Mon - hangover massive at work after free flowin on sun nite
Tues - tactfully avoided all gwen concert goers cos i wasnt going, so hence it doesnt exist to me (im just sore.. altho not anymore since i heard it wasnt al that great *triumphant grin*)
thought id be cultured n went to watch 'Tunku' the musical instead. No comment.
Wed - went crazy berserk organising a session @ work. pulled out half the hair on my head whilst runnin like gila babi from Wisma 1 to 2 and back + boss's farewell lunch , then dinner w mom
Thurs - MM&M event @ the Attic. My twin was there, of course. dragged Ants & Odio, who in turn dragged Siti & Sonia. Did that social thang & more beer. naturally.
Fri - another crazy day @ the office. moved cubicles, AGAIN. im a fckin nomad la, i swear *grrr* then Jazz Fest w the normal kaki + our buckets *big beer-y grins* full house to the max
Sat - opted out of servicin my marker w my team & slept in instead *yawns* then somehow ended up at the Jazz Fest yet again & finished off at Palate Palette .. oh wait.. and for 'dessert'.. jln alur beef ball noodles *dreamy sigh*
Sun - a day id do all over again. one word . photos. other word. nurul. where? everywhere. the car wash. kopitiam. klpac. chef&brew. the car. hartamas square. great great shots. thou shall bug nurul 4 cd soon. now.
which brings me back to .. me minus my camera *sulks*naked, i feel . nude, i am
"life thru my aviators". my foto blog.soon. i hope
"gahhhh.... I'm huuuuuuuuuungry ! I'm so hungry, *pant,pant* I could eat a cow! "
Seriously. My appetite these days, is one word.. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G .. or even Atrocious with a capital 'A'!
But then again, I suppose its just close to that time of the month again. Some ppl get all pissy, some get depressed/horny/emo etc. Me? I just get hungry! like ALL the time. I eat like 6 times a day , every 3 hours or so. gila la. so ya la. all the weight i lost wearin my sauna suit ( which is wat i call my full-on paintball gear cos it is MAJORLY hot w so many layers on) for most of 2 weekends before, is back, bah!
and when Im that hungry, I couldnt giv 2 shits if fishbowl sized blobs of cow poop was droppin fr the sky, Im just gona eat! yeahhh... *burp* then along comes my Popo (grandma - for all y'all non Chinese speaking ppl , me excluded this time *nyeah nyeah*)
"Wahh.. tai siew cheh fan lei la.."
(Translation - wow, big miss has come home..note to self:- Chinese should never be literally translated to English..ever!)
"Yes, Po..."
"How you gettin on at work? Having fun?"
"Uhuh"
*she disappears for 10 secs & I breathe a sigh of relief*
but na'uh uh.. ya right la she's done..
"Nuuuuur.. eh, can you get this book for me ah?"
"Huh?"
"Look at this ..aah, this I like la, I need this for my flower arrangements................"
and yes..she goes on...
I nod my head periodically, stick in some "Uhuh"s, n zone out like how I always do.
I did however feel a teensy bit guilty when she was pointin something out and there I was, checkin this hottie out on the opposite page *Tee hee hee..oops?* couldn't help myself
Being the filial grand daughter that I am. And not to mention the ONLY one in the house who has the patience to sit there and pretend to listen to her. kesian la her. so yes. i do it, for her. and to save the rest of these ppl i live with from having to do the same. cis, bedebah!Geez she's feelin chatty today... *phewwww* letih sudah!
speakin of bein chatty, i was prob SUPER DUPER ASS chatty last nite. i prob talked Kevin's ears off w the amount of bull that i was spewing outa my mouth.. absolutely expected tho i must say, takin into consideration of just how much beer + lil lychee vodka martini look-alikes we gulped down *BIG HAPPY GRINS*
ah but last nite.. of young, and i do mean YOUNG, HOT, LEAN, BOYS + free flow of beer & lil lychee vodka-tinis *drools*
I was in CUCI MATA HEAVEN *wide blurry eyed, mouth gaping*
( with a very bored looking Kevin next to me,wishin there were accompanying cheerleaders to suit his fancy)but omg omg omg.. *slaps self on face* it was pure dilemma. cos a small itsy bitsy teeny weeny *sings out loud.. 'Yellow polka dot bikini'!* part of me was goin..
"Holy crap Nur.. I can't believe you're perv-ing on such YOUNG boys. for fucks sake, they're like 18 or worse.. younger?!!?!?"
then the other little voice went..
"OH but come on... when in the hell do I ever get a chance to cuci mata like SO majorly in KL wei? When, When?? lets see.. NEVER! after all.. look only wat? " *feelin slightly better already*
ooh.. i hear voices in my head. what else is new?
(random thought - really shld go get those tattoos done...SOON! n yes, this so reconfirms my chosen design, well done Nur *pats self on back*)so there we were, in 7ate9, with our drinks, surrounded by all them young, future, footballers. I personally prefer them HOT , tan, latino boys.. ooh,ooh, one lifted up his shirt to wipe his face, and .. i froze *perv perv perv* ..ooh shit.. but i like!
the most ironic thing of the nite tho was, the world's craziest known party people - the Brasilians, didn't touch a drop of alchy. but danced their asses off anyways *sigh* of course the English boys drank la.. naturally. but then, no matter how much they drank, fact is, white boys cant dance *boohoo for them*and strangely, this line comes to mind"DO UNTO OTHERS, AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO TO YOU"I guess it was the only right thing to do la.. me perv on those young boys. Cos twas just earlier that day, that I had OLD men perv-ing on me. Worst still.. they were Mom's friends ( I coulda sworn they were gay.shiet! my gay-dar a bit wonky ka recently?)
but nah.. all in harmless fun. so there! justified *grins in major glee* + a lil *tee hee hee*
other worthy mentions of the past weekend
Fri - Sunrise Jazz Fest w the glorious Miss Christine 'i-love-reptiles' Leong, her 'oh-so -OCD-sister' Carol, my hero Tita & 3 buckets of Heiny, yippeee!! was all gung-ho to drive back til i passed out in d car at the BK drive thru
Sat - played the ever-so-filial daughter, brought mom to the MPO's 10th anniversary programme (gave her braggin rights which undoubtedly illicit-ed much deserved envy fr her mates..aww shucks!)
then to Attic to do that social thang, n wrapped up at Gary's poolside w cooler+bottle of Amarula
Sun - yay! no paintball training! but dimsum lunch w mom n some really old friends, tea at KLPac, and to wrap up an absolutley superb weekend, the Champions Youth Cup Final match @ Bukit Jalil & the after party @ 789 w Mr Sail-around-the-world Kevin.
which left me here.. with a hangover on a Monday, with a shitloada work to do & 2 new ppl to train. bagus. VERY the bagus.lets do it again :D
YAY! Mom bought me an alarm clock
*wheeheee... hop hop skippidy hop* *flashin big stupid grin*i tell u.. its damn easy to make me happy. " eh nur, wana go get a coupla BEEEEEEEEEEERS later?" me - *eyes start glassin over at the mention of that magic word.... * oooo...... BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER ...... *second thinks that thought* fuiyoh.. i sound like such an alchy. SOUND LIKE. hehe.but so what? no point livin in denial anymore. say 'TAK NAK' to closets, shadows and layin low! (random thought, HAHA.. nasib baik im not a smoker. govt gona raise ciggie prices even more soon *double snigger* ) so yeah, am gonna max it out, esp before THAT month. yes i am aware that it is the Hungry Ghost Festival month ( i can practically hear Karin moaning " omg Nur.. u are SOOOOOOO chinese ! ") but no.. not that month. that other month.. the one when i forbid any of you to call me by my name out loud in public....the fasting month *shivers* Hence , I have officially started my prep for this year. My checklist 1) get an english or NON malay-ish name (WIP - http://apps.facebook.com/myquestions/?ref=view_question&tab=answer&prev_tab=my_questions&qid=13911217 , go answer my FaceBook question :D ... next step... Polls & Votes! )2) store n hide my food rations in my desk 4 sneaky tea time treats3) go out n drink up MAX before those damn JAIS raids n watever the fuck kick off (WIP)4) keep low profile in front of malay colleagues so far.. 3 nites in a row of BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER . okla, its all goin according to plan. BAGUS!
lookin back at my last post.. im not afraid to admit that..
ADOIII....
BOY OH BOY
I am SOOOO bad at this bloggin thing. them damn fonts, colours, alignment, etc etc etc
I is the very confused...
like I said..
IT D-U-M-M-Y... i am *dushdushhhhh - knocks self on head*
*sittin red faced in my cubicle tryin to look invisible* stupid stupid stupid.
Yes, I did it again. I managed to reinstate the already prob well-known fact that "YES... Nur is an IT Dummy " to the entire dept... AGAIN. and this time, I managed to do it at a time when everyones sittin pretty in their cubicles, like seagulls waitin on some stupid fish to jump outa the ocean for em to greedily snap up.. uhuh.. and yes, I'm the fish **break for random thought. Yay! I'm Fish like Wentworth Miller in Prison Break in season 1. hmm, and I say this like its a good thing, bah!* *So yes la.Now my inbox is flooded w replies, and I'm gettin it Left <- , Right -> and Centre ( err.. I don't know the symbol 4 this..hows about.. = ?) *grins stupidly to self in amusement* but yes, I reckon I should be used to this by now. You gotta have a pretty thick face to be me...amongst other prerequisites I must add *does the whole 'dirt of my shoulder' move , uhuh!* *coughin wildly* dammit! must'v caught something fr last nite, which by the way turned out to be a pretty good Tues nite out. who the hell goes out on a Tues nite la kan? YES, well I do. and apparently, I'm not the only one, so there! was in the Wine Room @ Heritage with Li-Ann watchin Leonard Tan do his jazzy thang w our jugs of beer *eyes glassin over at the thought of BEEEEEER again :D * when guess who decides to turn up. Lil Miss Thang herself- the red head fairy queen ...Joyce, who was with Kevin. Then again, I'm so not surprisedla, cos KL is just THAT small after all. Fckin Fckin small actually SERIOUSLY... forget about the 3-5 degrees of separation. Cos this city ain't large enough for that. It's more like.. 1/2 or 1/3 for most of us. Which BTW... can be a good & B-A-D thing for ppl like me. *thou shall not elaborate any further for purposes of self preservation*but yes.. thats an entirely different topic.. for an entirely different daySignin off as.. an IT Dummy working in an IT world. the irony.
So here I go..my 1st step towards this bloggin culture thats devouring the society in which we dwell in. And as usual, JUST as I have made up my mind to start one of these bloody things( a result of overly idle hands and mind @ work) ..thinking "Yeah.. todays a good day to start. Lotsa time on my hands, boss is outa town, why leave all these wonderous thoughts floatin about in my head and put them down somewhere where they MIGHT be of use to someone someday....Or not *stupid grin appears on my face* " then...
*duuusshh* (visual - loud slam as whole tonna papers, books, and all thing associated with work come crashing down onto my table )
It's almost like the Gods heard my thoughts n the next thing I knew, I've got emails floodin in with all sortsa stupid requests *bahhh* stupid,stupid,stupid!
So yes, with this my first blog concludes itself, leaving me back where I started......with a whole lot to say, but never enough time to say it all *mutters to self* pffttttt!
