snuggle

last friday was D's last day at his work place. he got home and he told me ' i hate goodbyes, y'know?'. who doesn't?

he brought home a bunch of farewell gifts. there was even stuff for me. me? me! ahah. well, they shud. i've been the supportive partner all this while. Balik kul 1-2 pagi pun tak kisah. im cool. at first i saw him carrying the annick goutal paper bag and i was jumping up and down like a moron. i asked him dapat barang annick goutal ke? tak la. paper bag jek. cheh. buang karan.

but he did produce another paper bag. laura mercier. he shoved the paperbag under my nose. smell it. i did. wah, so yummy. turns out it was a shower gel and body lotion - creme brulee. whoopdedoop! smelt sooooo yummy. like i could slather it over my body and you could eat me. EAT ME! yum.

what did you get?
me?
yelah you. kan you yang pencen.
oh. hehe. i got kao biore men facial set.
you got what?
look. stock untuk satu tahun.


true enough. a big brown box. facial scrub. pore pack. sun block. sun block? wtf ?
and inside the annick goutal bag was a pewter set. nice nice. although i never know what to do with pewter. like last year for my birthday the company gave me a paperweight/pen holder made out of pewter. so useless. but im not complaining cos my PR Manager reads my blog.
(hey, he just started his own blog. go check it out. he's very very new. bite your tongue k?) .

so Monday, D started his new job. Bigger, better. But im still envious cos he wears jeans and t-shirts to work. dem la. first day, came home late already. lotsa work. second day, even later. poor thing. totally wiped out. we need a vacation la. badly. hopefully its really really soon. as in a month's time perhaps?

anyways.

dont wanna talk abt jobs la. boring.

erm, last weekend i was such a good girl. i cleaned up my room real good. D said 'dlm byk2 kali you pernah kemas, this is yang paling kemas i pernah tengok.' waaah. so proud. tapi sakit pinggang, sakit belakang, sakit kaki dan sebagainya. tell me i did a good job.


before.


after.
i threw away jars and jars of cream, bottles of hair gunk, lip glosses, lip tint, lip balms.
vaseline~who needs lube?


D hates this more than anything in the world.
It's his excuse against me not buying new shoes.
"tapi yg tak pakai kan byk lagi"



This got me super super super pissed + annoyed.

This was a wedding gift from a dear fren, AIEU. D, yanked the cord and the lamp was smashed. i was annoyed at him. he said throw it out and he'll get me a new one. I WILL NEVER THROW SENTIMENTAL STUFF OUT. I'm that kind of person. i sulked for days. then he got UHU and fixed it. cacat rite? he said he's gonna get some plaster, smoothen the whole thing and buy acrylic paint and make it nice. you'd better babe.

Technically it's still Valentines..

Happy Laffy Taffy day to my better half...

When you smile
With those eyes
Baby it's like
You place a finger on my heart
And your lips next to mine
Make me think that maybe heavens where you are
God don't send to me your angels
I just wanna hear you say again
Forever love


Tanjung Aru, Sabah. Watching the sunset while waiting for the flight home. Exactly one month ago. 14th January 2008.

you looked better on MySpace

i didnt feel like it was a four day weekend. so fast.

D was away for two nights. I had my sister02 bunk in with me.

Thursday - slept in. bliss bliss! went to mid valley. packed some Big Apples (the donuts not the fruit) for the inlaws and stuffed my face with a few. not many cars. so happy. now you know the cause of the mess and traffic. (yes sweeping statement, so ?) Spent the evening at the inlaws doing absolutely nothing. Watched our wedding video. Ask self why i didnt want to smile at all. AT ALL.

im so demented. wedding video with an expressionless face and the occasional very fake smile. not a nice one to show the grandkids now is it?

Friday - D left early morning. I scratched my head wondering wot to do. lie in bed and watched good luck chuck. so funny. and silly. Jessica Alba is not hot. whats the big deal. cos she stripped down in deep blue ocean or something. my vote will always be with Angelina Jolie. She hot. Super hot. Sexy for the male and even sexier for the females. Effortlessly hot. Jessica Alba reminds me of a soggy taugeh. Anyways.

We went out in the evening. Had a birthday dinner for brother05 at TGIF the curve. im such a carnivore. i thought i was a seafood person but i realized that i salivate at the very thought of bloody red meat. damn. so a birthday dinner it was sans D and papa. I had the lamb chop with was undercooked. gile. i never said rare much less RAW. sent it back and got a cooked version. the boys has ribs which was so absofuckinglutely amazing. and it was a huge portion. tony roma's ribs look like they came from cows in Somalia. brother05 was at tony romas the night before having another birthday dinner. pale, pale comparison.





no one finished anything on their plate. we wanted to go for movies after that but mummy had stuff early Saturday morning so we canceled that. shame.

saturday was filled with chores and stuff. boring but bearable. planned a midnight out at the movies and invited Yen to join us. i wanted to watch dan in real life really badly cos its been so so so long since they had any chick flicks at the movies. dan in real life was funny and sweet and warming as with all chick flicks la kan. we were halfway reaching midvalley when mummy calls asks whether we really are watching the movies at midvalley cos suddenly she feels like coming over and joining us. but she's wants to see some thriller or horror movie and we had to buy P2 tickets for her first. so there we were, girly night out. mummy and sister04 and her bf and brother05 watching P2. me, sister02 and Yen watching dan in real life.

"The most satisfying element about "Dan in Real Life" is that the relationship between Dan (Steve Carell) and Marie (Juliette Binoche) makes sense and is beautifully realistic. The casting of Oscar-winner Juliette Binoche as Dan's love interest was a superb decision; she is exceptionally talented, intelligent, naturally attractive and, thank goodness, appropriately aged for the part! Had this movie been made with Jessica Alba or Scarlett Johansson, it would have been a disaster.



Another wonderful aspect about "Dan in Real Life" is that it is a perfect film for adults who are interested in a mature comedy that leaves out the three pillars of the "frat pack" formula: dumb chicks, chauvinistic guys, and sleazy jokes. "Dan in Real Life" is witty and has fun, intelligent laughs throughout. Whereas other comedies incorporate or are almost entirely based on jokes that shock the audience into laughing, the jokes from "Dan in Real Life" are more natural and clever, and involve some thinking on the part of the audience."


told you jessica alba is a disaster.

anyways.

we couldnt seem to agree on where to supper after the movie. not easy finding a place to eat at 2am that mummy wont complain is dirty/food sucks/lousy service/too hot/too cold. they went their way, and we went to uptown. to cater to my sudden craving of kueytiaw kari and Yen's pirated copy of Juno. dismayed sebab CNY still celebrated, semua kedai tutup. settled for some freaky noodles.

promised someone i would help her finish her 2500 word essay but fell asleep by the third word. its the thought that counts.

sunday- D arrived. Happy happy happy! He is home!! Woot woot. His parents had invited mine over that evening for BBQ dinner. spent the afternoon with mummy in the kitchen baking chocolate fudge cake to bring for dessert. which really actually tasted more like chocolate fudge. so sinfully rich. i had a tub of hot fudge and a spoon to keep me content and stop me from poking the cake and licking my fingers. two cakes. one for the house and one for the in-laws. his mom made us chicken wings, lamb chops (again! ive died and gone to heaven) corn and raisin salad, terubuk, siam noodles, sausages and some other stuff i can't recall. Everybody stuffed themselves. Well, everyone except Mummy cos she eats like a bird. Pecking on food and not eating much.


chocolate fudge cake. lunch yesterday. so sue me.

the worst is happening. i have meetings at 6pm. yesterday, today and tomorrow. meetings that usually take 4-5 hours. big L.

Ooooo Valentines!!



havent you heard? its that time of the year again. Where you get to laugh at sheer stupidity of men bowing down to stupid idontknowwho'sidea tradition of wasting good money.

Get this. The biggest scam ever. GSC is having a promotion.

a five course dinner at that glitters cafe (the what?)
valentines gift
tickets to dan in real life OR 27 dresses.

tickets cost rm218 -rm158 per couple. damn. i cant wait to see which numrod is gonna fall for this one. seriously. rm218 for something that you could get for rm10 (dvd nonetheless!) at kedai dvd uptown or rm8 at kedai dvd mines. and save the other two hundred bucks for a fabulous dinner elsewhere. NOT GLITTERS CAFE!

or you could pay me half the price and i'll make you a better dinner. in my garden. (excuse my cat if he decides to poo in the middle of your dinner)

seriously chicas, if your man decides to indulge you in GSC special this valentines day. you might seriously contemplate ditching him. its a clear sign of a man having no creativity at all/malas nak pikir/takde modal/"why not? she likes the movies"/seriously boring/no efforts. and plus, its a clear cut indication that in years to come he'll be the type of man who'll pay a bomb for things that cost next to nothing. or probably the kind of man who wouldn't know how to prioritize his spendings.

wait a minute...that sounds like most men.

seriously, pay two hundred bucks and the date is all done. you dont even have to lift a finger. sucker.

i'll be in the regular cinemas watching the same movie laughing at you from the front row seat since i forgot to book the tickets earlier, two hundred bucks richer! hah!

or maybe i'll stay at home.

we've never celebrated valentines. maybe we'll start this year. lets see how much of a sucker me and D can be. scams.

chewy



me and y got into an argument. i said elizabeth:the golden age, he said he wont watch old people movie. i said meet the spartans, he said he wont sink to my IQ level. he said eastern promises. i said no, D has the DVD. he said eastern promises. i said no. he said i didnt have a choice.

the line was bloody long. we stood in line and stared at chick in front of us. she had a fake nose. we stood for half an hour in line staring and pointing at her fake nose. i didnt really like the fake nose.

we walked in the cinema hall. there were about four others, perhaps? i told him i hate empty movie theaters, they make me feel cold and creepy. hate hate hate. i dont like eastern promises. there was one part i think i saw mortensen's dick. ew. i dont even like looking at his face. what more his dick. double eww.

"what about her uncle"
"bagaimana dengan pakcik nya?"

"he's old school. he won't suspect anything"
"dia sekolah lama. dia tidak tahu apa-apa"

Y was pointing excitedly at the screen.

"OMG!! sekolah lama?!! S tengok ar tu! sekolah lama!!!!"

LOL.

that aside, i hate any suspense at all. i hate scene terkejut2. i hate any type of that okay. i get restless and hide behind my bag. yes i do. shut up you. i pay for my own tickets.

on saturday, D and me started the day early. serviced my car, then sent his for servicing. then spent the entire day in bed. sleep sleep sleep. i have no idea why. i struggled to get past the first 10 minutes of ugly betty then my eyelids would give up then i would fall back asleep. then id wake up again and try again and again. geez.

we finally ended up showering at 6pm. manage to get ready just in time to catch D's friend at the theater. improvaholics@actors studio bangsar. so funny and so so wrong on so many levels. heh.

oh, and i was hungry too. very very hungry. since we slept the entire day, we didnt even have lunch. i was famished and my tummy was rumbling during the show the entire time. aiyoh, make me shy only.

then he took me to silverpot again which was very very yummy. but i found out that we ate without talking to each other, or maybe he did. i talked and yapped garbage as usual. he was quiet and hmm-ing here and there. duh, he was hungrier than i was. penat jugak cakap sorang2.

and then yesterday i cleaned my closet. like, finally. D was complaining that;

1. i had waaaaay too much clothes.
2. he can't even locate his clothes anymore.

which was a lie and completely untrue. because;

1. i dont have that much clothes. i have like three tops. i always have a wardrobe crisis.
2. thats because everything is in the laundry. now everything is back where its suppose to be.
am i a good wife or what?

i folded clothes and then he played guitar since he bought some new strings. he played some nice songs and i threw all the clothes and started dancing. which didnt help much. then he moved on to play his gendang or whatever its called. it got boring. i could only sway my fat hips. oh well.

i promise to continue folding clothes tonite. maybelaaa. im not in a folding clothes mood. the mood appears like, once every six months and the quota for this time is used up. im so sorry babes. i really am. maybe i'll move on to arranging the magazines.

[4:03:03 PM] carrie bradshaw says: nanti tonite i nak sambung balik
[4:03:04 PM] carrie bradshaw says: babe
[4:03:10 PM] carrie bradshaw says: i nak teka u pakai baju ape boleh?
