New Year

Never to late to wish everyone a happy new year. And like i said on my facebook, this year is gonna be awesome cos I'm gonna make it awesome. Hopefully less sleepless nights, less drama and less negativity!

Lacking updates, so sue me already. :)

What i've been up to so far;

1. went to watch the kl dra.gons beat sing.apore slin.gers last weekend. Loved the game. Didn't know i had it in me. Now i only wish wish wish that i had enough $$ to go South Africa for the World Cup. Wouldn't that be awesome. Once, just once in this lifetime i wanna see the world cup - LIVE. - anyways we had VIP tix and had access to the lounge and good seats and stuff, though we moved from the VIP seats to the front rows where we had a really clear view of the cheerleaders' wobbly bits.

2. my cousin and her gorgeous wedding. attending by the PM & wife, Raja Nazrin Shah & his wife. And sheila majid performed at the wedding! wonderful. :) it was on the day of the AJL finals where i had 5 tix but couldn't make up our minds which one to go and finally decided on the wedding instead. D saw KJ at the wedding, then i spent the remainder of the night scrambling to find him to add to my photos of 'me & KJ' collection but he left early. Darn it. Yes, i am infatuated by KJ and yes everyone smirks when i say that :p

3. shoe shopping! the usual. started the year with three pairs. 2 C&K and 1 absolutely favorite gorgeous MNG heels. They're on display in my living room cos i think that they're too nice to be locked up in the shoe cabinet. Lol!

4. starting something new - deserves a whole new post all together. happier and less headaches.

5. D bought the xbox! Spent hours at LowYatt deliberating the plus and minuses of xbox vs ps3 and xbox won. So he sits and plays all night while i do my wedding dashing on my netbook. Would love to try xboxing, if only they had much much interesting games instead of those killing spree or mad racing. Time management games would be awesome.

6. Movies- Didja hear about the Morgans? (we loved it too bits despite Sister02 telling me it was boring as hell), Sherlock (saw it for the first time and we both left 20 mins into the movie cos we waited for the midnite show for too long, then saw it again the next day), Avatar (not my thing).

New resolution would be to update more often - Status: Failed.

Saturday.

D&S took mummy, MIL and both my sisters to see Natrah. Didn't expect to get front seats. Wonderful view of Maya Karin 30 going on 13. the set was great as usual. it wasn't that fantastic as the reviews promised that they would be, even dragging at some parts. but i did enjoy it overall and so did everyone else. mummy, MIL and both my sisters were so excited about meeting that Nur Kasih guy. Am i the only one who hasn't seen the series? would love to after all the hype, but just can't seem to find the time.

Me and D had to wait quite a while for the snaking queue for the girls to peek at Remy Whatzisname.

I'd love to talk more about the show but i'm just too tired and too sleepy to function right now.

Sunday.

We spent the warm day indoors and went to MV later in the evening. I was so excited about the C&K sale but D raised an eyebrow at me knowing I had like, RM0 in my wallet. LOL.

He told me i could pick a handbag and a pair of shoes. Yay! The handbags were definitely gorgeous and so were the shoes but none left for my petite little feet. If you are a size 38-41, there's plenty more for you. After the 6th pair i picked and still no size, we left with just an over-sized worn leather looking brown handbag. happy :)

Didn't buy anything much apart from the necessary. He got for himself 5 work shirts and cuff-links from G2000, some stuff from xixili for me. had a simple dinner then went home.

There's a cat that i miss right now. His name is speedy and i found him near my house and gave him to my parents. he's well-taken care off and is so fluffy and playful now. but he can't seem to kick that kampung habit of digging through the thrash can. Once kampung always kampung no matter how pretty you are i guess. In this case a stray cat.

Everytime i go over, i'll always gomol and squeeze and tickle and toss the poor. i kinda think he doesn't like me that much.

yay for a holiday

D took me and sister02 for fatty crabs last nite. at 11pm no less. i was thinking that no way any crabby place would wanna cook some crabs for us so late in the night but hey, this is kl. anything goes.

went home and slept. i'm bad that way. if i wanna sleep, guests or no guests, i'll fall right asleep. kesian my sister02 and my brother03 who came much later. earlier this morning, endang the maid called few times. she was at my mom's and ready to come over for the weekly cleaning and ironing. i just couldn't drag my ass outta bed. finally at 9ish, i got up and went over to mom's. then i realized that i haven't done my laundry and if she came there wouldn't be any ironing for her to do. crucial, ironing. can't do myself. i always fry something.

traded with my mom, so I'll be using her services for Sunday instead. hung out for a bit at my mom's and she requested that i make the Vietnamese beef noodles with the leftover daging korban. she said 'haritu punye sedap'. i didn't think they were sedap and more likely that she wanted me to make lunch as she was getting ready to go out with sister02 and there was no lunch at home. Vietnamese, I'm not so sure but they were beef noodles-la.

came home, D wanted to make some repairs to his car. the potong rumput people got a stone in his window and smashed it so he went to fix it. called me 30 mins later and i picked him up from kedai basikal and we went for our monthly grocery shopping. honestly, i think prices of stuff has gone up. our trolley wasn't even full and he paid RM300+. it's not like we were buying anything other than the usual milk, juices, vegetables, chicken, baked beans, fish (bukan salmon pun), soya milk, cheeses and toiletries. and it's only like, for the two of us.

did i mentioned we did all this without showering? it's normal for me, but i think D has really picked up the habit of malas mandi from me. he already is showering only once a day and now on weekends, we do everything and at the end of all our errands, then we take our shower. nothing new for me. i come from a tribe yang malas mandi. haha.

we came home and made dinner. i made chicken and prawns and D made the vegetables.

his friends came over just now. one guy and one girl. i couldn't believe it when he asked them dengan penuh semangat and wide eyes,

korang nak makan tak? kitorang ada buat butter prawns, ayam sambal. cencaluk pun ade. sedap tau!

he is so confident about the dishes we cook. i wanted to crawl under the table. i don't think that i cook well enough to entertain guests yet. just barely edible for the both of us, and D isn't much of a fussy eater. make me shy only. lucky for me his friends were like malu-malu kucing and i wasn't about to push them to eat my lunch leftovers. :P

it's 12 midnight. where did my day go?

after lunch after math

i just came back from lunch. never stuck to the strict 1 hour lunch break. out at 12.15, back at 2.20. do the math. a colleague wanted to buy me lunch, so i had the choice of picking the place. afternoons are always super warm, so i chose somewhere cooling, easy to park and good choices. ended up at the place where D and I had our reception.

i had a bowl of tom-yum kueytiaw, the other girls had chicken chop and fish and chips. she insisted we had dessert so two of us shared a banana fritters ala mode and another two shared the banana split. now i'm slowly falling asleep at my desk. my eyelids are getting heavier and heavier as i type this down...slowly but surely.

had a very late night sleep yesterday. was up playing diner dash and watching back episodes of survivor:china. i've seen all episodes of survivor ever aired (US version) and I'm really running out of things to follow. facebook is officially yawns-ville and the idea of knowing what people do every second via twitter is just plain depressing. i mean, honestly do you really want to know what all 200 of your friends are doing every second, what they think of the nasi goreng, what they think about the streets, the traffic, the weather, their financial status. you really have the luxury of time?

here's how i spend my time: survivor repeats, dash games, archie comics, food blog, literati, arranging and rearranging my shoes. not so great but it's all about me, me, me.

here's what i'm gonna do when i get home tonite. change the sheets. into clean white sheets. i feel like clean white sheets today. cool clean white sheets.

oh shit, i forgot to go to the dry-cleaners again. sigh.

christmas wish list

i want new shoes. one would make me half happy, two pairs would put a smile on my face but three would give me the ultimate satisfaction. i want three pairs of shoes. i saw a pair of anne kliens animal print flat which i clutched so hard til i realized i had merely enough for lunch. those shoes cost RM539. i've never paid that much for a pair of shoe. i don't think now would be a good time.

i also want some platforms and flats from the C&K sale. C&K so far has done me justice in terms of comfort and durability. guess? shoes just murders my feet but are oh-so-sexy that i wear them anyways. aldo's sky high heels take me months to break into them but i end up wearing them to death.

i also want the pair of clarks exactly like one Cindy has. i'm not a clark-y person. always thought they were a bit auntie-ish but i totally fell in love with the ones she has. pricey also. almost RM400. sigh. but i'm gonna get them anyways. D said okay. :P

i want an over-sized handbag in worn out brown/taupe leather. something i can put on my shoulders. something strong. i wanna put my netbook in the bag. a brown leather wallet with plenty of compartments to go along would be great also.

i need a mascara. Chanel Inimitable is high on my list, failing that Loreal Double Wear has been working wonders too. i vow not to spend a dime on crappy MAC products anymore. they've done nothing so far. the foundation is crappers, pressed powders even crappier and their eyeliner is worse. i need a good mascara. i have very straight sparse eyelashes. but then again what do you expect, i am almost hairless. i'd rather have short, sparse lashes than have hair on my upper lip! scary.

after attack of the break-outs, my sister introduced to a miracle skincare which has magically made my skin clearer and all those nasty spots gone! to flaunt it, i need that new foundation. dermologica. and laura mercier oil-free tinted moisturizer. someone please buy them for me. please?

that's all i need. till the end of 2009. make me happy. please. please.

yesterday i talked to D.

babe nak RM526 boleh ke?
nak buat ape RM526?
nak beli make-up baru
sampai lima ratus lebih ke?
mascara, tinted moisturizer, foundation, facial scrub.
hahaha.

i wish i could spend these last two weeks of Dec shopping and buying stuff to kick start my new year. ain't happening.

if i get those stuff, i will willingly forget all vacation plans for the first half of 2010.

and while your at it santa. another pair of goose feather pillows would be awesome.
