Hot and Spicy

I was having a plate of mee goreng toyam yesterday at Tesco Penang. It was really spicy, it definitely perk up my senses. To top up with it, I ordered a hot teh tarik. After drinking, the combination of teh tarik mixed with the spiciness in my mouth, I've got this feeling of euphoria.

I've just slowly sipped the teh tarik, enjoying the sweetness and the smell of rich tea. And just watching the world goes by, just couldn't care less.

P/S Hey, you don't need a cup of Starbucks coffee or Coffee Bean to get this feeling. After all, the teh tarik only costs RM1.20!

Feeling The Pinch!

I was lamenting with my friend last Sat on prices of essential items. Truly enough, most of the prices had gone up even though petrol price went down by RM0.15 per litre recently. It doesn't help much though for consumers like you and me.

Like for example, a large Natural marjerin costs RM9.5o each much compared with RM6.50 two years back. It just went up by 30%! I wonder, whether, the price would go up to RM10.

My friend, she usually takes the same brand of 2 in 1 pack coffee, the price was same but the suppliers downsized the packaging. Even, nowadays, you can hardly buy economic rice for the price of RM3.oo. It's not economy anymore!

Today, I went to the bank and draw another RM1K to last me just another 2 weeks. I was wondering, what happened to the last RM1K I drew on the 3rd Oct? After deducting, my insurance, bills and credit card payments, there should be enough. It shows that our monies value have became small, I'm already feeling the pinch.

Even though the government declares that we are not facing any financial crisis and recension, I could not agree more.

I think it's a ten years bad economy karma!

Stay faithful.....

I did mentioned in my blog, on relationship dated 19 Sept, I would stayed faithful to my boyfriend. I'm glad that I did. The older guy that I mentioned in my 19 Sept blog, appeared again after missing for a month.

It's really hard to maintain and be faithful to a long distance relationship with my bf. I'm trying my best. I mean, I could have say yes to this older guy, but in my heart there's only place for my boyfriend.

I really miss my bf. Each waking hours (when I'm not working), I will be thinking of him. Counting the days I will meet him. Sometimes, I just wish, he's by my side at all times. Well, i guess that sometimes in life, you just can't have everything.....

19 Hours Stretch

My boss and her marketing team worked 19 hours in a stretch yesterday till 5am. I know it's definately crazy. Yeah, it was a crucial time as my company needs to prepare it's business plan 08/09. Actually, most of the different departments had submitted the reports in Sept 09 to my headquarters.

During Sept 09, when her department is supposed to submit the reports, she was away due to the demise of her father in law, resulting a 2 weeks delay.

I pitied my colleagues. Today, when I see them, their faces were ashen and dead tired. After all, they only sleep an hour or so. Imagining stretching your mentally and physically for 19 hours!

My boss should compensated them by giving them a half day leave, which she did not!

P/S Hey, we are only mere human, we have limits. Even machine will be overloaded if they worked overtime.

Relationship-Can u or can't u live w/o it?

Relationship - Can u or can't u live without it? Right now, I'm so called caught in a love triangle. I have not met my boyfriend yet, actually we met online. And now, someone is after my heart of which I don't know whether I should return. This guy is much much older than me.

I thought that it wouldn't happen to me, this love triangle. This second guy is very persistent no matter how hard I decline him. I could have liked this guy, but I've just have this stigma back in my mind, he's much older and there won't be any future. I'm saving my Asian face and not to let down my parents about this issue, you know how Asian thinks?!

Actually, he has been away for the last week, and I was like missing him for a few days. But eventually my feelings faded as time passes.

As for my boyfriend, things have been a little bit slow between us. Can't blame the situation, we are living thousand of miles apart, and both of us are working people. The only time we can talk is on Sundays. Yeah, we do miss each other, just wish that we are 24/7 there for each other but we are keeping vigil till the day we meet.

Sometimes, I feel that I want to be alone; not to be involved in relationship. But I fear of being alone.

It's strange and funny how one perceived relationship. Clearly, people are more demanding and take advantages of each other when they are near, but when you are far away, at least there will be more appreciative.

One thing I can say is right now, I'm going to be faithful to my boyfriend, (am I a fool, hope not, maybe a fool in love!) because I believed it pays.

P/s My boyfriend is coming over in Feb 09. I just can't wait to meet him.

Peak Season

Currently, I'm experienced my peak season now. Not my sexual peak season, ok? I will be not entering my blogs at the moment cause, I'm having work burden to carry.

So, friends please do bear with me. Do keep blogging away, ok!

Will all singles pls stand up?

My sister and I were talking the other day who's attached and who's not. And we did a random count and 8 out of 10 people we counted are still singles. (These numbers we gathered are from our offices and friends that we knew of). Most of them are between their late twenties to early thirties; some are even forties to fifties. Scary? Or surprising? Sad to say, most of these singles are women.

I'm single but thank God I'm attached. I still dream of settling down, be a good housewife if my husband permits, a mess up hair mom with no makeup on chasing and screaming my kids. I need someone to share all my life with. Who doesn't?! Watching my kids grow up and grow old together with my husband. I know that I may sound cliche, but is it this the life every single desire for?

I talked to some of the marriage ones and said that they will dream of being single again. Maybe frustrations of being married drove them to say this. I see some of my friends who are married and became new parents, they will be lounging bags of diapers, milk, water and foodstuff! I'm sure that they will be not complaining! But back of their frustrations and desperation, they are beaming with joy. Pride of their family!

Of course being a single there's not much sacrifice to make, after all you are surviving on your own. But fear of loneliness will creep in.

So, singles if you are still searching for your perfect mate, do keep on searching. If not, explore the world and live life to the fullest! Is not the end if you are still single! I think it's cool! Long live single hood!
