words cannot describe



how much i love my yeh ma.
came across this pic. and realised she's getting old.

i love that she's still so gusto.
i love that she's become forgetful but still plays maj like a pro.
i love that she's oblivious to the evils of life.
i love that she's never thrown a tantrum.
i love that she loves me too.
i promise. to go home more often.

always a baby

the past days, everytime i think yeah... ive good great news to share and ive got to blog about it . and then i think 'oh yah she mentioned it was a secret' and then i think, damn. i've think of something else to write about. boring.
and so today.she wrote in her blog about it. which means i can tell the world!
my babysis has got her internship with a very sought after employer. (still not sure whether i can reveal coz she didnt) anyway, i am so damn proud of her!! haha . altho it was somehow or rather through abit of connections here and there, im sure she deserves working there with all the hard work and diligence she put to her studies. i know its only internship, but hey its not easy to work with *** hor. i know. coz years back i had to go through 3 bloody rounds of interview with three different sets of management before i got the job. and it was bloody low paying shit.
anyway i hope this internship will work for her and help her realise that work is tough shit. its a wild wild world out there. its a grab the best job on the platter and decide later kind of world. thats my philosophy. hiaks. i swear i would karate chop whoever bullies her. im sure mum would too. say too. and dad will be forced to retire too. haha

always a baby.
in our eyes.

her short story



'The girl walked along the darkened street, struggling with her basket which made her skinny arms ache. The town was almost unnaturally silent, which made the girl nervous. Short, plump with red hair and inquisitive blue eyes, she walked with a noticeable gait, the result of a childhood illness which left a permanent limp. A few hours earlier, her sister had appeared in the doorway of her room, her face unreadeable. It’s Tuesday. Go and finish your chores. Go now. Her sister’s unusual grey eyes were wide with an emotion, and although she tried to hide it, the younger girl could see that her sister was taut with tension. Slightly bewildered at the uncomfortable emotion which made her breath catch in her throat, she had reluctantly picked up her basket, put on a dark coat, and headed out to the to fill her basket with the town’s famed berries from their berry plantation. It was a curious chore that had been added to her list a few weeks ago.
The basket was only half-full, but she reasoned that she could explain the berry bushes were empty, it was not the season for berries. Her sister would not mind if she came home a little early. She walked up the long pathway that led to her house, puffing slightly. She quickly let herself in; the impeding darkness had cast the street in shadows, which made her uneasy. Suddenly she noticed something strange. It took her awhile to realize what it was. The house was deathly silent; the gas lamps had not been lit. The silence seemed loud, and the girl’s heart started pounding erratically. Suddenly she heard a sound, somewhere in the increasing darkness of the living room. Curious, she traced its source until she came to a heavy wooden door which hid a staircase leading to the basement. The sound was strange, almost as though someone was trying the knob of the door. As she listened with unease, the sound changed to an insistent knock.
In the midst of her mounting terror, she remembered the odd decision her father had made weeks ago, to nail the doors shut. It was about the same time her berry-picking chore had been implemented. Fear had honed her senses, and the air seemed suddenly chilly as shivers crept down her spine. She desperately wanted to bolt, but suddenly she remembered her family. They could be in danger! The knocking continued, increasing in tempo. The girl ran to the mantle, where she fumbled with a match and lit a candle, and hurried back to the door. She opened it, her hands trembling. The candle lit a small area around her, but the bottom of the stairs, which led to another door, was shrouded in darkness. “Hello?” She managed to choke out, her voice sounding shrill and strained. The knocking stopped, and there was a long, pregnant pause. She descended a few steps, her nerves tingling as the candle flame flickered with the trembling of her hand. Her questing fingers found a candle holder, and she slipped the candle in. The door was blocked by thick, heavy boards, nails ruthlessly pounded in. It was covered with a strange dark marking, which looked black and forbidding. She reached out to touch the strange markings which revolted her, yet drew her.
Suddenly the knocking resumed, and she almost dropped the candle as a scream caught in her throat. Her feet turned almost involuntarily, and her whole body poised to flee. “Someone, help me please!” her sister’s voice stopped her dead in her tracks, and she turned back to the basement door, her mind shrieking at her to run. “Sis? Are you in there?” The girl started to whimper in fear as tears started to run down her face. Crying hysterically, she dropped to her knees, intent to pry open the boards with her bare hands, her nails splitting as she pried at them. Her sister’s voice continued to shriek with mindless fear and horror, screaming for help as the desperate pounding continues. Try as she might, the girl could not budge the boards, and she screamed in fear and frustration, as she herself pounded the door with bloodied fingers, tears blinding her. Her feet suddenly felt wet, and she looked down. A dark, black substance was seeping from beneath the door. She looked at it, and numbly bent down to touch it. It gleamed a dark, glistening red which told her it was blood. She fainted then.
Strong arms picked her up, and she, half-crazed with horror and worry, woke up and screamed shrilly. She turned on her attacker, fighting wildly, scratching and kicking. The dark shadow which had grabbed her was unmovable and ignored her spitfire behavior, and carried her quickly up the stairs. Light blinded the girl and she whimpered. Her wild eyes look around, fearing the terrors she might have to face. It took her a moment to recognize the pale, shocked faces of her family. At first, she could not believe it was them, and she screamed that they were demons in disguise, and she wanted her sister back, away from that terrifying basement. The girl who looked at her with wide, scared eyes was not her sister. It was the anguish in her father’s voice as they repeatedly assured her she was safe, her sister was safe, her father had carried her up from the staircase, which finally calmed her down. She broke down then, her family around her in the brightly lit living room, her entire body trembling. Later she would wonder why her sister was safe, what had happened? For now, she was safe."

yah. in case you were wondering. this is definitely not written by me. coz my short story will prob consists of wah laus' , sibos' and such.whereas my darling sister will use super long and descriptive sentences. shouldnt i be so proud of her. i wonder why she took biomed rather than eng lit or something along that line.

shabu-ish sunday

i am so stuffed.
thanks to babysis who insisted on having shabu shabu at home. she always gets what she wants. only because we love to make her happy. so while she was studying for her exams at home. mum, rave and i went on a daughter /mother / son in law shopping spree.

first we 'shopped' for a dog.
everyone must have received this sms one way or another.
"Petshop at Joo Chiat Closing tml. 2 huskies, 1 black labrador,1 shihtzu,1huskie terrier cross breed 2giv away. If not they're gona b putdown. details pls call Mariam 97302064. Pls forward."
it must be widely circulated because i received this sms from 5 diff pp who were not related in anyway with each other. the power of sms is simply overwhelming. Anyway i called the number repeatedly but it was to a 'not available' msg. well. hopefully they managed to foster the dogs out.
anyway we went to see another 6 cross breed puppies looking for foster homes. they belonged to my mum's fren who already had 3 dogs.


relak jack. the father

protector. the mother

wild. the kids

the rest of them

it was an absolute headache trying to figure them out. by names or by features they looked all alike. haha. anyway we decided against adoption this time round coz of several factors. i suppose we expected at least one to warm up to us. at least curl up and ask for a tummy rub or something. and the only one which did was already taken. damn. the rest were pretty hostile to us. and i tawt it was really wierd for schnau-tzus to have long skinny tails. but generally like all other dogs, they were just plain cute.

after the failed attempt to adopt a puppy, we headed to Meidi-Ya for some jap grocery shopping. and we already sworn it was the last time we went there the previous time. all coz we spent $200 for shabu food. where else would you find cabbage and tao gey at $10 per packet. but we did it again. and we remarked that the money spent could get us a good and comfortable meal in a restaurant.again.


guess what cost $35.25

freaking ex but bloody fresh sashimi & kajiki
yumzzzzzz

mushroom galore

the shabu shabu party.
and much more.

but anyway. it was squishy and hot trying to fit all of us at the table. but nothing beats having an ' expensive' dinner in the comfort of mum's place with your loved ones, legs up , messy hair, and foul language sprouting all over in the conversations. i like!

i miss...

notice the cartoon trends of this century.
lousy plots.
ugly looking things.
absolutely no effort made in creating characters.

but these..... i miss!


gummi bears ... jumping here and there and everywhere.


rainbow brite


my fav! E.... e.... e..... e..... eWOKs....
and i found this on youtube!

i remember vaguely that dad used to record cartoons for sis. and that we could just watch episode after episode the cartoons we so loved. maybe such memories has unknowingly affected us in diff ways. she still loves cartoons till this day and asks for cartoon network to be subscribed. while i absolutely love the calming effect that any other tv programme has on me. excuses excuses. till this day mum still says that tv works wonders for me now as it did for me as a child. my nanny, granny and mother had no problems taking care of me as child.i didnt need many toys. they just had to have one heavy investment. a good tv that they could keep switched the entire day. programs didnt really matter. and i would stay focused. seriously.

but on a serious note. i miss my sisterhood days.
they say you cant turn back the clock. but i have wonderful memories.

new company policy

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY:
Company Policy:Effective from 2007
Dress Code : It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise.
Sick Days : We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work. Personal DaysEach employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday & Sunday.
Bereavement Leave : This is no excuse for missing work. there is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon.We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early.
Toilet Use : Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "Chronic Offenders category". Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health
Lunch Break: Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.
