Dear Shane and Bubble, really glad we had a nice & cosy chat session. I would jus like to add for the record tt the link we discovered between Herbal Life supplements, Bar-top dancing and Duracell batteries is some 1st class crap (shucks, good old canteen crap sessions been missing ever since graduation). Would love another session in the future. Shall we? =)

Btw, wat a coincidence bumping into Russel.
Russel: Smoke Less!

Care to elaborate why this gay fren of yrs deserves a lot of respect for acting normal and not having "gay behaviour" in front of his frens? Cos i would think tt this is the usual scenario.

btw, is it yr old room-mate? ;p
I just found out that one of my guy friends is gay. I've known him since uni started, but it never came across me that he was one. I had a little shock, and it kinda bothered me for a while. The reason being he really appeared to be a very normal guy, having none of that "gay behaviour" one might expect. After some thought, I decided he deserves a lot of respect for that, and I had formed stereotypes too quickly.

To my Thailand adventure companions...

i read recently an article tt changed my impression of MBK as Bangkok's shopping heaven. (it has been replaced by Chatuchak!)

[quote]"WHEN in Bangkok, go to Chatuchak weekend market. To say that it is big is an understatement. It is the mother of all mothers of markets. There are 15,000 stalls packed over 14ha. It is open on Saturdays and Sundays and 200,000 people visit it on each of the two days. There's a skytrain station right at its doorstep. The stalls sell a jaw-dropping range of goods - puppies, plants, crockery, cushions, antiques, screwdrivers, you name it, they've got it. The market is divided into maze-like sections, some trendier than others. You are almost guaranteed to get lost but that's part of the fun. You never quite know what you're going to stumble upon next, which also means that if you find something you like, buy it at once for chances of you locating the shop later will be slim. Which was how, 10 minutes after entering Chatuchak, I found myself clutching three bulging plastic bags."

Hey, if we ever have another chance at it again, here's an advise to my MacDonalds Pork Burger buddies [quote]"A colleague had recommended the beef noodle shop at MBK's sixth floor food court. Good choice. And on the fourth floor, you get crunchy pancake-like desserts for, what, 20 cents?"

Hey Gail, thanks for the 1st person perspective leh. so the leaving feeling is actually more hectic than anything else haha... i can imagine tt siah! anyway, if the counter-chick does pity me with my over-weight luggage, i'll make it a pt to ask her for phone number ;P

No intention to experience it soon though, not brave enough. I think i'll drop tears. btw, i have extremely sad news for all the 5-day work week pp... Labour Day this yr is on a saturday!!! this one really cos my tears to flow like open tap man.

sheesh... let us observe 1 minute of silence to mourn for this titanic loss. Whopee.
I spoke to a fren not too long ago. He informed me tt he's doing a study on how Blogs (in general) tend to die off after some time. That inspired me to write this particular entry which i shall dedicate to him.

Yup, so if i get scolded for dozing off in the office later, the blame goes to him too. =P


Dear readers,

so when's the last time u made an effort to see a fren off at the airport?

i have always been very curious to know wats the feeling of the person being on the other side of the glass waving back to one's family and frens as he/she embarks on a long trip alone into an unknown territory for the first time. the mixed feelings - a pinch of anxiety, a touch of apprehension, a teaspoon of trepidation and an endless flow of excitement the night b4 the flight... shld be quite intense... though i can only 'try' to empathise.

i guess there's only 1 way to find out. haha. =)

Selamat Hari Raya Haji (belated)

Dear readers,

here's a cute brain teaser...

2 blind men went shopping. each bought 1 pair of black socks and 1 pair of white socks. after leaving the shop, they bumped into each other and the 4 pairs of socks fell to the ground.

Qn: how can the blind men ensure tt they get back 1 pair of black and 1 pair white socks each?

Dear readers,

when was the last time u went to a wedding ceremony?

I went to my fren's church wedding today and one of the speakers who took the podium left an impression in me. He shared with the newly weds and the audience the secret to a lasting marriage. He even said tt according to researchers who discovered this, tt pp who practise it not only get to enjoy a very lasting blissful marriage, they'll probably also earn more money and live longer!!! Sounds too good to be true? Well, I guess the only way to find out if its jus bullshit would be to put it to the test. So tell u wat, I'll practise this "secret" when I get married and see if I do earn more, enjoy my married life and live longer ;P

2 wks to Christmas. Ho! Ho! Ho!

Dear readers,

have u seen 'The Matrix: Revolutions' yet?

Hopefully, coming this Christmas, we'll get to see a spoof of this epic at the party in Godwin's new home. Featuring Op-amp as Trinity (she gets to choose her own 'The One' out of her 4 current heatsinks namely, the original heatsink and her number 1, 2 and 3 heatsinks) and her fav man as Neo. We'll be shooting our version of Trinity's death scene where her only lines is jus 4 words and for Neo, its jus action, no words. Refer to script below:

Trinity (says to Neo): Kiss me.
Neo: ...(pause)
Trinity: Kiss me.
Neo: (Neo gets lucky)

So now the qn remains... which heatsink will land up with the meaty role? cos the other rejected heatsinks will have to double up as Agent Smith(s).

So for yr own sakes, do catch the show b4 u come for the party! Cheers...

Dear readers,

would u dare to try the "food" featured on the show Fear Factor?

i jus ate an egg containing a partially developed duck embryo! Filipinos call them balut and most of them treat it as a delicacy. Had 2nd thoughts b4 i finally decided to munch on, esp when i opened the shell up and saw wat i saw... well if they ever have a spore version of Fear Factor with balut in it, at least i know i'll be 1 step closer to the money. =P

maybe we can use it as a forfeit? haha...

Tuesday, November 25, 2003

Dear readers,

so when was the last time u ate food highly recommended by frens? did the taste do justice to its repute?

after digging into a couple of supposedly famous foods and gg away with the "over-rated" feeling each time, i wondered if i'm the one with the fussy tastebuds. heck, i know for sure tt i'm not choosy over food cos i happen to be ok with both beef noodles or kway chup! and if a burger is hot from the oven, has enough mayo (the most sinful on the planet), then it's good enough. The quality of the patty ranks way behind in my list.
So i guess it's the unreasonable expectation i bring along whenever i go sampling famous food. maybe a suggestion for anybody who intend be bring others to savour good food, tell them its famous only after it goes down his/her throats. =)

Selamat Hari Raya.

Dear readers,

it seems the saying tt:"u learn something everyday" is indeed true. =)

yesterday, i learnt something which i thot i'll put in the record such tt i'll rem an outstanding treat from this person. i learnt tt 1 entire banana cake only needs 2 bananas! amazing right? but, in return for the banana cake insight, i shared tt Convectional Rain is a type of rainfall that is common in equatorial areas, caused by warm air (heated by the sun) rising, cooling, condensing and bringing heavy rainshowers. We'll be having a lot of it in the coming mth so get yr umbrellas ready.

eagerly waiting for the banana cake... u know who u r, start baking soon!
=P

Dear readers,

here's another piece of quality gossip fresh from the oven...

For those of u who weren't at Gail's house this afternoon, we received word from a reliable source tt our dear Opamp has got another suitor (tt makes 1 more on top of the current few in the running) hot on her heels. Looks like our dear boy Heatsink will have his hands full clinging on while fending off others' advances toward his heat source. So far, we remain unable to establish anything conclusive yet. I will "try" to give u guys the lastest updates. Do stayed tuned...

Dear readers,

Remember the painful feeling of not getting wat u want when you most needed it?

Well, if anyone ever needs to get a cough mixture and it jus so happens tt all the pharmacies are closed, dun lose hope cos I got jus the cure for yr pain (or cough). All u need to do is to go down to the nearest Han's restaurant and ask for their Mango Soda. It taste exactly the same except the soda version is diluted with ice.

Wa lau eh! Crap man!

Friday, October 24, 2003

Dear readers,

Just like to take the opportunity to share a concern our dear Heatsink might have... in case he is at wits end with finding the right present for his darling Opamp's coming 23th birthday. Well guess wat, there's no need to fret anymore. Here's a sure win tip: get her the Takashimaya Shopping Card. Sure it'll kill yr bank account but wat the heck right? The smile on her face is more than enough reason for u to slog at work for. Pls remember not to wait till her birthday to give it to her cos the sale ends 2 Nov!!! So hurry now, while stocks last. =P

Happy Deepavali. Enjoy the long wkend!

Dear readers,

I happened to chance upon a love quote while surfing the Net. Somehow, it kinda got me thinking and i thot i'll jus share it with u folks over here...

"Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, you can never tell." Joan Crawford

My version... =P

"Love is a fire. Get yr own heatsink!" Gossip Gu-niang
