I never knew a pair of jeans could make me so happy :) Yesterday I got a new pair of jeans to celebrate my recent weight loss. My belt can now go in an extra three holes and my baggy...
When it comes to mystical, "spiritual" stuff, I'm completely confused and hopelessly lost. Sure, I believe the spirit world exists, but exactly how it works or what goes on there is a mystery to me. We Christians are taught that...
Being hungry and sleepy at the same time is not a good combination. Being hungry, sleepy, having a Bad Hair Day, getting lost on the way to a work assignment and thinking about all the bills you still have to...
Remember the guy? Okay, he hasn't replied my email in two weeks. [UPDATE: I got his email just before posting this! Is that good timing or what?] But, today I went over to my uncle & aunt's place for dinner,...
Do you ever find yourself asking the strangest questions? This is a conversation I had with my housemate, Emmy, about two months ago as I was driving to Cherating (a popular tourist destination in the state of Pahang)... Me: If...
Many years ago, I decided I wasn't going to get into a relationship with any guy that I couldn't see myself marrying. Why invest so much in the relationship, I reasoned, if it isn't going to go anywhere? But sometime...
I haven't written about my counselling in awhile, mostly coz I haven't seen my counsellor for weeks. Remember the first time I saw her, she told me she would probably only have six sessions with me? Well, we'd already had...
This so reminds me of Mom. The other day I was on the phone with her and told her about my promotion. I also told her about being put in charge of maintaining our youth website. Then, because I...
I went for dance class today after work. I had on my new jeans with a grey V-neck baby-T tucked in and a black leather belt round my waist, black open-toed heels and big silver hoop earrings. One of my...
I fell asleep in my office on Wednesday afternoon -- all my late nights are catching up with me -- and a trigger-happy colleague snapped some pictures as evidence. However, instead of sebarkan (spreading it) all over the Internet...
Most people remember faces, or if not then at least they remember names. Me? I sometimes remember faces... and sometimes remember nothing. I swear, it can make for some extremely embarrassing moments. Like when fellow Malaysian blogger Silencer responded to...
For much of my life I've lived with the knowledge of my neediness & insecurities and tried not to let them consume me. There've been times in the past when I've felt myself get just a bit too clingy to...
I've searched absolutely everywhere and I STILL can't find my car registration card. I looked through every single piece of paper I have (and believe me, I have many) and I went through the folder where I usually keep all...
I'm starting to understand how a person could become anorexic. When I interviewed three young anorexic patients a few months ago for an article on eating disorders, one said, "I lost some weight and everybody started telling me how...
Aiyo, there's a set of questions going round most of the blogs, and I'm supposed to be the next to answer coz Messy Christian decreed it should be so ;) How many books do you own? I have no idea....
I'm starting to think I'm blurness personified. A friend sent me a message asking me whether I'd be free for dinner tomorrow and I immediately tried to recall whether I had anything planned. I couldn't think of anything, but I...
I missed my blog birthday again. I KNEW it was somewhere in June... actually, it's smack-dab in the middle of the month, on the 15th. If that isn't easy to remember, I don't know what is :P My blog is...
Shit. I was surfing blogs when I just remembered I forgot to call Dad up on Sunday to wish him Happy Father's Day. Where is my head?????? ...
When I talk with others, what surprises me the most sometimes is how differently we look at things. I'm not surprised by similarities, coz I've realised that we all suffer the same agonies of self-doubt, wounds from careless words, frustration...
My housemate Adeline was reading Chicken Soup for the Girlfriend's Soul last night when she suddenly came over to where I was sitting and pointed out a paragraph to me. It was a quotation from some woman called Doris W....
I have a flight to Penang, one of our northern states, tomorrow morning at 9am which means I have to be in the airport by 7am which means I have to leave the house by 6am which means I have...
I ended up sleeping at 4am, woke at 5am and left the house at 6am. I was supposed to meet The Boss and my colleagues at KL Sentral, where you can catch a train to the airport, and I got...
All the stuff people said about meeting me at the Project Petaling Street anniversary bash (mostly wonderful, I think I'm starting to get used to it):Sunflower was there...This is the second time I'm meeting up with her. Our blogs are...
Only two comments on my lame post. Serves me right ;) More match-making's afoot. I just had this "conversation" with my 17-year-old cousin Yean tonight via mobile phone text messaging... Yean: Want to introduce an Australian Chinese doctor Christian 39yrs...
Visa International -- the credit card people -- are threatening a Malaysian blogger whose blog is using the domain name visa.com.my (.my is the code for Malaysian sites). The blogger in question received a warning from a local legal firm...
This is the busiest time of the year for me at work. After three consecutive years spent covering the annual national inter-school cheerleading competition, I know more about cheerleading than I ever thought there was to know. I do believe...
