I’m a little frustrated and iritated with wordpress today. I could not get my recipe and pictures load here.
Apparently the version where i save my recipes is incompatible with the software here and connection is bloody slow … arrrgghh. Or I’m such an idiot with IT. Okay, I’ll settle for being an idiot ……. crossing my fingers I’ll have better luck later tonight or tomorrow.
Then again, what cooled me down is this cute guy seated right infront (I’m in Old Town-White Coffee). He is surfing the net, I’m ehhh pretending to look intelligent and pretty tapping away on my laptop hehehehe. He checked me out and I checked him out …… and I like what I see 
We both are such a slutty flirt.
Anyway, sorry Lin, I’ll try to paste my cheesecake recipe here tomorrow.
Every morning, crawling to work and evening hitting back home through the traffic, usually we see all around us were routine scenes of joylessness and negativity.
Parent yelling at their kids, couples quarrelling heatedly in their cars and some zigzag their cars madly. All this irritated faces betraying the boredom and stress of their lives.
Then we tell ourselves “just another traffic jam scenario.”
Fortunately, I have learned the art of amusing myself even under the most trying conditions. Cars driver (and passengers as well) on both sides of the road, or pedestrian passing in front of our car, are a rich source of entertainment, literally a moving picture.
Take this morning, while caught in traffic for good half an hour, a girl in front of my car managed to finish putting on her make-up. Complete make up okay … no joke! She had her foundation, loose powder, eye browns, eyes shadow, blusher, mascara and lastly bright red lipstick on all under 15minutes.
To my car right side, a skinny looking guy was picking his nose non-stop … gross! Now right behind his car was a very voluptuous damsel wearing a very low v neck opening … what a treat!
Wow! There was a highly fashionable sweet young thing walking by, long locks waving, pertly in the breeze, wearing a blouse twice her size and a skirt so tight it could split right open at any moment, and she’s wobbling along atop a pair of four-inch heels … whoops!.
Coming up next, car from my left side was this really yummy looking guy. Richard Gere looks alike. I give him a shy smile and he kept checking me out hehehe. Flirting while stuck at traffic is one of my favorite. . The trick is to smile ….. lots of smiles. It’s harmless and passes time quicker.
Occasional morning, I will see this young rocker in a hurry whose hairstyle is absolutely ‘Ozzy Osbourne’. He usually carried a guitar with him. And his leather pant, and those oversized shoes (one of the reason why I called him young rocker), I guess, must have finished his gig and on his way home.
See, not much time for me to be bore while caught in traffic congestion. If we are, you can be sure that it’s entirely of our own making.
I like to think boredom is often the sign of negatively charged mind. Reverse the polarity; transmute the situation into something positive … and we’ll find us a much more resourceful person than we ever thought.
Was it you I flirted with this morning?

Now, isn’t this my lucky night…..
First and foremost, I finally managed; get my ehhh very plain profile up.
Next, I have got all my favorite songs in my media player load and sorted out. I’m very fussy ….. My media player got be in perfect order such as by artist, genre, album etc.
Now, I’m writing this post …… which is soon enough compare to my previous posts. Its a promised I make to myself, I got to write at least two post a week, after all the purpose of blogging here was to up-date my friends.
Anyway, it has been exhausting weeks for me to find the some spare times to up-date my posts here. Works has been one hell tornado this month. With so many filling, reservations and reports deadline to meet, I’m as good as a walking zombie. Should I bitch about my works? Better not, just incase some of those moron people I wanna bitch about decide to check out my blog here (they might find out my blog by accident, okay). At least not yet or maybe later when I’m really really cross with them ……… kakakakakaka!
So, how much do you give at your works?
Monday 12%
Tuesday 23%
Wednesday 40%
Thursday 20%
Friday 5% ……… Think about it.

Long overdue pictures.
Ismail and Lin
LIn look lovely with her adorable smile.
Ismail, Cili (me) and Lin.
I’m sorry Elinny for taking so long to put this pictures on my blog.
This pictures was taken when I last met up with Lin while she here for one of her conference, was it conference or some other work related thingy? Seriously i can’t really recall what she told me. Lin, Ismail, Jack and me had afternoon drinks at Coffee Bean (near KLCC). We had such fun catching up with each other and meeting Ismail was equally pleasant since its the first time i can put face to his name (white marlin), really nice guy. Jack on the other hand was really really quiet, only contributed to the conversation as and when require. Caught him dozing off couple time. So much of having your boyfriend coming along for catch up with old friends ’sigh’. When I confronted him later, he said its was those foods he had for lunch and the weather was so cozy, beside I should be grafeful cos he allow us to have ‘us’ time ‘rolling my eyes’. What an excuse!
As for dinner, both Jack and me took Lin to one of my fav stall to have Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa Kampung Baru. Ismail wasn’t able to join us for dinner due to his prior engagement with his son.
A plate of nasi lemak can hardly fill up Jack tummy, he had to go for second plate and still he is bloody thin-lean-thin or whatever. However, Lin with her usually excuse of ‘oh i had so much like rice, daging (meat), sambal, egg, etc etc, was actually had a bite of each, then declared she is full cos she ate so much. Lin please, a bite of each item doesn’t mean eating alot, okay? Earlier at Coffee Bean, I guess as much when Lin said she had so much foods the last few days. Both Ismail and I was teasing her about bit of each item doesn’t mean you eat alots. See Lin, you can’t fool old hack like me. Girl, you got to eat a little more otherwise I will look bloody fat standing next to you hahahahahaha. Imaging ….. elephant and deer ….. eeeuuuukkkkk! Anyway, I told Lin we will take her for ikan, sotong, ketam bakar (grill fish, squid, crab) and one of the best nasi lemak at Port Klang on her next visit here.
Ages has been really catching up on me, my bain storage is not permitting me to remember much lately.
Then again, as usual, its just one those excuses i kept stored in my brain just incase i need for being lazy.
Kevin i know you are laughing at my excuse, then, i’ve also told you why i was not able to start writing my blog, right? So quit laughing or grinning or whatever your faces expressing now while reading my blog.
Lastly ….. what do I have to do to get my bloody profile up here? ‘DAMN’.
