i've got 99 problems and the flu is one.

long overdue pics thanks to our darling friend, raja eulyndra..

i'm pissed

cos my game dvd is missing!! where the heck is it?? after writing the last entry, i was hyped to start ps2ing... i took the controller, wiped it clean n slotted the memory card. last step: the dvd. lo and behold, i found the dvd sleeve, but where's the disc?? aaarrrggghhhh..... i mean it's common sense. if u're gonna play another game, put the discs where they belong. the dvd games have been catalogued nicely... hello??!! colour-coded some more ok. must be my bro la. he lugged the ps2 to his home while we were basking in the sun at langkawi. yes i do have many other games (well hundreds actually) BUT i always play a game until it's complete, then start on another one. aiyah.... i spent like 40 hours on that LOTR game already....

on another note, tmr is the last day of da yr! well generally i dun celebrate new years, cos well, it's just another day to me. nothing special. new yr countdowns are so over rated. see the s'pore idols!! wee hoo!! again n again. for gdness sake man. those that can't sing pls la, give it up already. in all honesty nobody's applauding u for trying so hard ok. yes i admit some are quite good, but a few are like whispering into the mikes. just smiling n jumping here n there. wasting space only. might as well let runi n nurul sing ( n mabbe nad also la ah, lol.... er lyn.. dun think u into singing rite??)

ok la since i can't find my game yet, i'll just read my book then. or do some net surfing.... mabbe i'll see wat other sites sell accessories...

arrivederci le mie amiche.... ( i hope dat's right, il mio italiano has become rusty)

my horoscopes again....

Two things are demanding your full attention. You're going to have to choose.
i have no idea wat this is talking abt. i dun think anything requires my attention. well i'm no good at giving attention either... let's just say i get easily tired / bored trying to stay attentive. so if u drone on n on abt something mundane to me, there's a high chance that i'm actually singing to myself. n also the occasional "apa sak masalah deni?". well this dun apply to the princesses here of cos... u girls always have my undivided attention :)

You're set to do internal battle over what you want to do and what you feel obligated to do for a loved one. Either way, a dispute (possibly over money) may be inevitable. Let it go until tomorrow.
this sounds like getting a stable job... i know my mum will be happier if i have an office job (which i honestly think will make my life span shorter), but i'm more content doing wat i'm doing. the pay's nothing to be hooraying abt, but at least i dun come home depressed... i've worked 9-6 jobs before n boy did those drive me half insane.

so nurul, u up for the accessory thingies? if u're really serious, we could arrange for a trip as soon as january... there's a bit of spare change that i can contribute, hehe... i'm sure it'll be a blast. i think the first month of the yr will be kinda of quiet for my photo touch-ups also.

let's work towards something ladies....

e-xerox

ok so i bloghopped and just decided to copy and paste this from this fella's blog from one of Nadia's links.. http://whitelionat2003.blogspot.com

so here goes..
ROMANTIC IDEAS FOR MEN:

1. Draw her a warm bubble bath. Wash her back (& everywhere else). Take your time. Then towel her dry and carry her off to bed.

2. Give her a full body massage without expecting anything in return. You're sure to get your reward the next night!

3. Little things go a long way. Hold her hand, link her arm through yours while you're walking together, place your palm on the small of her back when standing beside her. Those tender gestures won't go unnoticed.

4. Brush her hair at night. This can be very sensual. Be sure to use a brush, not a comb. And don't pull. Be gentle. If you encounter a tangle, hold the hair above the tangle, then work it out.

5. Tell her you love her. Seems obvious, but many men overlook this. Women like to hear it. Often. Make her an audio tape and secretly slip it into the cassette player for her to find.

ROMANTIC IDEAS FOR WOMEN:

1. Do something different. Instead of a massage, graze your nails lightly down his bare back (if you have good nails). It will send shivers of pleasure through his body.

2. Let him pick one fantasy a month for you to fulfill. Make up a list for him to choose from (that way the fantasy will be something that you're not opposed to). Then plan it out as an official "date."

3. Have some sexy (but tasteful) pictures taken and give them to him as a gift. It'll be something unexpected and special--meant for his eyes only.

4. Personally write him an erotic story. He'll see a new and exciting dimension to you after that.

5. Put on some sexy clothes, turn on the music, then slowly strip the clothes off layer by layer while he watches.

we are all walking ironies.

my horrorscopes...

That chore you're avoiding only seems endless. Once you start, you'll be half done.
i know wat it's talking abt.... it's the fotos!! i'm in the midst of choosing the pics to be sent for print n there's so many. the langkawi pics, raya with family, raya with buddies, n other crappy ones....

You're in an uncharacteristically sentimental mood, so much so that you may actually allow someone to see you express your feelings, for better or worse. Oh, don't beat yourself up. This is a good thing.
express my feelings? sorry girls... there might be much going on in my mind but that's where they'll stay. feelings come n go anyway.

i'm so glad that i'm home. i read reports of tourists saved from killer waves in langkawi, as they were out on tour boats. i had a really gd time there, n i hope those that i met when i was there are safe. this is the third time that i'm back from a holiday, n some sort of disaster strikes that particular place. when i went to indonesia, i was supposed to take the silkair flight, but my uncle changed the flight to thai airways instead. next up - genting (or was it cameron?) there was the landslide... i missed that by a few days too. n now it's langkawi... the resort i was staying at was right on the beach. i saw the berjaya resort, it's on the water... 5 star... it's been swept away. i dunno which is worse... news on war, or natural disasters. well i guess violence by man or by nature can never be predicted. the only difference is that u can always bring justice for someone who has been killed. u can never be angry at nature can u? cos it'll never give u an answer no matter how many times u question it... 

dat's the book i'm reading now... yup yup someone died an ugly death n the devil is involved.  

quote of the day

it's only when u are damn rude n crude to a person that you know it's a damn good friendship

marry the merry men

among the seven deadly sins.. i'm lust too.. i can't relate myself to the other six.. well sorry nadia, we have to share.. if u dun mind.. hehe..

so if u ladies were to read me and nadia's respective blogs, we have listed out the men we'd love to.. ya know.. hang out with.. hehehhee..

so why not, lemme know if there are any more celebs worth the attention.. hit the "comments" button k!

The One on the Seven Deadly Sins

Righty o, time from a quickie postie from the perpetually troubled/nonsensical one....

I'm home after a long day at my second home, the singapore zoo... and I am troubled. Nothing too major, but definitely not something I can brush off just like that. Talked to ija about it over msn and she joked about lust being one of the seven deadly sins... and that she's guilty of gluttony. So now that we've both taken up lust and gluttony, what are you guys??

Here's the list of all seven:

Anger
Pride
Sloth
Greed
Gluttony (Ija)
Envy
Lust (Me)


So take your pick ladies... *goes off to take a shower cos she reeeeeeeeks*

ello gals... here r some pics for ur viewing... these r frm my hubby's D&D at Furama Hotel.. 

thanks for the time ladies.. :) should do this some other time when everyone's free the whole day..! :)

and runi, thanks so much for taking the trouble to come over.. it's really sweet of u! hehe...

oh by the way the bosses have finally shifted over to the next unit and they'll no longer be sitting right behind me. it's stressful to act busy when u have no work to do sometimes. as for me, i'll still be sitting at this goddamned place, near the door. yucks.

it's ten to 1800hrs now. do congratulate me for making it through the day without any work at all. and so this cycle continues. God, i need some job satisfaction.

oh, nadia.. i'm craving for your choc cake again.. :) even the sabster says it's nice..

eulyn, u owe me a treat for helping u do lotsa things. haha. nah, i'll just need your cheesecake. that'll do.

ija, err.. i have nothing to say but... WHAT A GIRL WANTS rocks! :P

runi, HAPPY FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

At last!!

Sorry gang.. my pc has really been driving me mad!!! can't go into certain websites at certain times.. really dunno why!! sheesh.. shud really beg hubby to call da computer guy.

okies, i lurve da collage that nurul did! ooh gurl, u really know how to werk that camera if i do have to say so me-self.

so today, i have loads of plans :
1. send hubby to work 545am (sent)
2. send mum & aunties to arab street to buy cloth (10am-2pm)
3. send mum & aunties home, straight off to fetch hubby at sentosa after his games day (3-4pm)
4. reach home, prepare dinner for bros (4-5pm)
5. prepare for hubby's co. D&D (5-6pm)
6. pick hubby's frenz up for D&D
7. D&D at Furama Hotel (7-10pm)

if that doesn't puncture me, i dunno wat will. have to be a good wife, good daughter, good sister, fabulous trophy wife *ehem*, good niece, good fren... sigh... a day in the life of ME, and it's only a Friday.

Hey gals, let's go out this week. feel like having tau suan - i dont know why.. but make it happen ya, cos this craving aint going away for quite a while...

Love ya!!

and so its up to me, lyn and ija to see if we still wanna chill at lyn's place. i dun mind.. we could have a photo frenzy again.. ija is totally MIA in the internet scene, i suppose.

i was very excited about this sunday until i received lukewarm replies.. :( well, everyone seems doubtful about this sunday.. runi says she doesn't know where to put her husband (mana aku nak letak laki aku kalau aku pergi?) and she has her normal sunday routine - jemputan. ija will be there unless baby hannah comes. nadia isn't sure if she's going kl or not. and i heard from ija that ros can't make it. hmmm...

Another Linguist's Attempt at Translation

Right... what do we have here... (am going to cheat and use Eulyn's translation as a base)

Satu nafas terhembus adalah kata
An escaped exhale speaks words
Angan, debur, dan emosi tercampur
Of mixed emotions and aspirations
Dalam jubah terpautan
Beneath the clothes we try to cling onto
Tangan kita terikat... bibir kita menyatu
Our hands are bound, our lips sealed
Maka setiap apa yang terucap
So everything spoken
Adalah sabda pandita ratu
Are prophecies of the divine
Di luar itu pasir
There's sand outside
Di luar itu debu
There's dust outside
Hanya pasir meniup saja lalu hilang
Only sand which is blown away is lost
Terbang tak ada
It does not fly
Tapi kita tetap menari
But we still dance
Tarian cuma kita yang tahu
What we know
Jiwa ini tandu
This soul comprises a chorus of souls
Maka duduk saja...
So just sit
maka akan kita bawa semua
And we will reunite them
Karena kita adalah satu.
For we are one

Okay, okay... not the best translation.... but I tried!! (Which is surprising since I don't really like communicating in Malay to begin with! lol)

got what with love?

ok since i'm bored, i'll translate the malay-indo prose eulyn typed.. LITERALLY. hahahah. enjoy.

Ada Apa Dengan Cinta
Got What With Love

Satu nafas terhembus adalah kata
A heave of breath speaks words
Angan, debur, dan emosi tercampur
Imagination and emotions mixed
Dalam jubah terpautan
Beneath the clothes we try to cling onto
Tangan kita terikat... bibir kita menyatu
Our hands are tied..our lips become one(our lips closed tight)
Maka setiap apa yang terucap
So whatever that's being said
Adalah sabda pandita ratu
bla bla bla queen/princess ( Is the prophecy of the divine)
Di luar itu pasir
outside there's sand (We are covered with sand)
Di luar itu debu
outside there's dust (We are covered with dust)
Hanya pasir meniup saja lalu hilang
only sand blowing then gone (Only when the sand blow will it disappear)
Terbang tak ada
cannot fly (we cannot fly)
Tapi kita tetap menari
but still we dance
Tarian cuma kita yang tahu
The dance steps only we know
Jiwa ini tandu
the soul is ??? (sounds like tanduk.. so the soul is horny?) (Our soul in unison become one)
Maka duduk saja...
so just sit
maka akan kita bawa semua
and we will bring all
Karena kita adalah satu.
cos we are one

HAHAHAHAHAHA.. my goodness. whatever those translations mean.. hehehe.. i like the horny translation though. ok nadia, i'm sorry i'm not of any help at all. hee hee..
