A Bongek Adventure

Yesterday was an adventure I did NOT enjoy. Oh God.

Can you imagine being sesat all the way near UNISEL! Thats like after Rawang, somewhere in the further rarely-visited part of Selangor! Ugh. Tak bleh bla sesat sampai ke situ. Tawu cuak. pfft.

How on earth did I venture that crazy far??? Funny story really. I took the Damansara toll way instead of Persiaran Surian by habitual mistake. Because though I'm more familiar with Persiaran Surian, for some reason I subconsciously took the road into PJ where I normally take when sending Apan to school or following my parents to work - which is basically almost everyday since school days. So its a subconscious habitual mistake.

Bongek.

Anyhoo, realizing only after the toll that I was suppose to go the other way, I made a second mistake by deciding to go straight into the highway heading to Ipoh instead of going down into PJ. This turned out to be the stupidest, biggest, longest mistake ever! Because after that I made a series of mistake of going straight to nowhere with no sense of direction, having no idea where I was and no way of turning the car around.

Bongek.

I finally stopped at a Petronas petrol station to make calls. Along wasn't picking up the phone. B couldn't help me. Lan told me to go to UniSel. At this point I was already panicking because I knew I was too far out from home and stranded in a vicinity I had never stepped foot in. I was crying like a pathetic bimbo really. Anyway, I managed to turn the car around without having to go further to UniSel because it was a two way road. Oh maaaaan the place was gila scarrrryyyy. It was one of those busy industrial areas with smoking factories and roaring lorries and congested roads.

Bongek.

I turned the car around alright. But I think I made a wrong turn at the traffic light because I popped out a highway with no familiar signboards. I wanted to screeeeeeeam my head off! This is when I started the series of calls with Lan keeping him on the phone so he could shout directions at me. Albeit his entire family laughing at me for getting lost this deep. Gah. His brother was very helpful though. Thankyou kind people!!! I was on the highway for over an hour with one hand glued to the steering wheel and the other pressing the phone against my ear. And speeding at 120 and 140 km/hr with the tank signal only 2 bars before empty.

Bongek.

I finally, FINALLY got the car to Restoran Jejantas Sungai Buloh which is safe to say not too far from home. I fueled in half the tank and was back driving towards Kuala Lumpur. After another 15 minutes (which felt like 15 hours) I curved into Bukit Kiara and saw signboards pointing to TTDI. Oh. My. God. I felt like screaming in joy and kissing the ground when I finally drove into the all too familiar road of TTDI! Weeeeeeeeeee!!! Gila lega ok! Not to mention drained out PENAT from all the road stress!

Bongek.

Amelia was already waiting for me at The Curve and had been since over an hour ago when I started my sesat adventure. She was laughing at me of course. Aduhai. I went to meet her at The Curve. Circled the parking basement like 5 times before finally stealing a parking space! Mia was already buying tickets. We watched Wanted. Great movie if you're into violent gruesome action. Shopped (mostly browsed through je) at the stretch of kiosks lining the Walkway before calling it a day. I went to see Dee at Starbucks in Dataran Sunway afterwards. With Apan after I kutip him at the dentist in Mutiara Damansara. Totally, totally, majorly ZONKED OUT occaaaaay! Dee, bless her lovely soul, spoiled me with a tall Dark Mocha Frap. Aaaaaaah...the soothing rich taste of dark chocolate and coffee does wonders to this fatigue soul.

Around 6.45pm, I was desperate for the warmth of my bed (and I hadn't prayed Asar yet. hehe). So back home it was =) I never ever want to get lost again! (if i can help it lah) At least not too far out until some strange area that's completely a virgin to me.

Bongek.

Note: Many thanks to Lan and his family for helping me out my most desperate moment of need. Despite the shouts and discomforting choice of words, I'm still very very VERY grateful to you. Thanks a million doode! x)))

ROFL!

I got stomach cramps and rivers of tears of joy laughing at this! Haha. Gila kelakar nak mati ok! Many thanks to Dee XD

Chomelnyaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

This lil tyke is the cutest! Eeeeeeeeee I want a kid like this! lolx.

Pessimistic


Sometimes I think I let myself be too dangerously vulnerable.

Sometimes I think I let myself fall too riskily deep.

Sometimes I think I let myself dream too foolishly high.

And then one day, one ugly day, all my pessimism turns real and I'm left there like a forgotten rug who had all the glory of fairy tales one time, and woke up to realize it was all a dream.

Sometimes I scare myself...

Most times I just don't care.

Sexy Lingerie

La Senza in the UK is apparently cheaper than here in Malaysia. But really, define cheap. How cheap is cheap? A 6 pound bra still equals to RM36, which is considerably pricey for a piece of lingerie to my standard.

And that's a 6 pound bra.

So if I were to buy a 15 pound bra, that would be RM90. Walaowey. Gila mahal for one small peice of innerwear! And I want TWO. So that's RM180 for two small peices of polamides. (Ok one of it is 75% silk. Hoot!)

But they're so sexyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

And compared to the price sold in Malaysia they're cheaper by a good 40 to 50 bucks. So I'm saving like a hundred ringgit here. Walaupun this is waaaaaay over my normal budget for little delicates people don't even see. And I did say to myself before that I would only invest in expensive lingerie once I'm earning my own good money or I'm married.

Clearly I'm neither. Lol.

But, I'm getting them anyway because I'm convincing myself they're much more durable, comfortable, better fitted and sexier. And that last reason is important because you need to feel good to look good. So there.

I'm buying the bras.

Pink Daisies

Only 3 weeks ago I was in Penang for the Architectural Workshop - which was great FUN. A real powerpul (compliments of bimbo Anis) event that raised spirits of many and laughs aplenty. And of course, the sweet snippets of time stolen to berdating. Lolx.

Oh how I miss.

Now here I am back to the dragging boring life of passing time with whateverness. Ugh. Plus, upon attending a pre-contract meeting in Putrajaya and having sighted (compliments of bossy client) the scenario that's become a norm in such meetings, I am now more determined than ever to NOT become a practicing QS. pfft. Asyik kena marah dengan client je. Tak koso den.

The good thing is, I've become more acquainted with my colleagues. Dah habis audit Kak Suzy dan Kak Elena masa dalam kereta. Heheh. I have 3 more weeks to kill before the end of my industrial training period. Then it's back to the pearl island, Penang =)))

I miss my PJ friends. Tapi tak sempat-sempat nak jumpa semua. Dah tu, the only time to jumpa is on weekends and I only have 3 more of that. I haven't seen a bunch of people lama. I've a date with the sorely missed Princess Mia next weekend which I sangat lah harap menjadi. I haven't been in touch with Thaqib quite some time now let alone jumpa. I've only recently heard from Azrin after like months. I owe a Farah a date and birthday gift. I haven't seen Syazana since matrix...

Rindu mereka.

I'm back

Two weeks blissful break in Penang and I'm back in good old PJ. But....

I miss Penang. Or rather, my ecstasy there.

Vast blue oceans. Powerful cool waves. Golden yellow sand. Hot sunny days. Chilly monsoon winds. Beautiful green padangs. Clear blue skies. Exotic palm trees. Crazy winding roads....

Oh cantiknyaaaaaaaaaaaa.

I feel nostalgic now. I miss that broad broad shoulder and huge warm hands and sensuous sexy scent lingering on the back of hand. Sigh.

Oh um, I malas want to upload pictures here because I just transferred em all into my pendrive sebab takut kantoi. So if you want to view our pics (if you want la), click on my friendster photo album of 'kami' here.

I don't have the event pictures. Sorry isaty. They're all in mmy's camera and I forgot to copy them into my pendrive. Gah. Tunggu bukak sem lah yea.

This blog will be empty for the next two weeks.

I'm in Penang now in case some of you may not know. The whole Minggu Alam Bina prep looks positively cool so far. I've had fun NOT being stuck within the gloomy 4 walls of my dull office.

I'm happy =)))

Walaupun at this moment i'm bored to near death because the next rehearsal is at 9 pm and I've had nothing to do since 4. Gah.

Whateverness. Adios!
