I know i haven’t been blogging much, sorry.
My cough really took it’s toll (raging one it was!) on me this week.
Have you ever had a cough so bad, it made you go into a coughing fit till you threw up?
I can now raise my hand and say i have, though it’s nothing to be proud of -_-
It’s bad enough in the office, that when i cough, some silently plot to kill me if i pass it to them (read: Didi Ramlan).
But it’s worse at night when i’m lying down trying to sleep.
I feel as if my throat is closing in and i can’t breathe.
Then it tickles, and it irritates, and i cough and i cough, extracting as much air as i can as to expel the phlegm that never comes out.
With all that force, the only thing that goes flying out is (was) my nice wine and dinner.
Twice in a week.
I end up falling asleep out of pure sleepiness around sunrise.
And die getting up for work.
So yeah.
I’m relieved weekend is here so i can catch up on sleep!
********************
First week of work has been alright (i can only write nice things cos i’m very sure they’ll read this).
Wait, rephrase. Work has been GREAT!
I LOVE EVERYONE AT WORK!
MY BOSS IS AMAZING!
MY COLLEAGUES ARE HEAVENLY!
THIS IS THE COMPANY THAT ANYONE WOULD DIE TO WORK FOR!
Actually, i told someone that i can’t write for them anymore cos i’m attached full-time.
“Oh, i always wanted to work for them…” she said.

As i was surfing online while waiting for the Friday traffic to clear, i bumped through BryanBoy and found blog drama insanity (I KID YOU NOT) going on in Manila.
It’s a total soap opera drama, or reality tv.
Only this is reality blogging.
It’s SO ENTERTAINING (i’m usually not by these things) prollie cos of the way he writes and you can *feel* the passion, and anger, and OH! You just gotta read it yourself.
From first post to last. I insist.
Reading it reminded me of Ian Seow, oh-so-angelic (-_-) ex-editor of mine who cheated the company with lies and deceit till they almost went bankrupt.
And half the team got let go.
Argh, don’t think about it, don’t think about it, everytime i think about it, i get all pissed.
Ommmmmmm….
Time to go out and drink to DreamerCyn in celebration of her birthday.
And perhaps be a fag hag in Frangi tonight with the boys.
It’s that or Raw. Haven’t decided yet.
Hmm… *runs off to change*
FaiTheMai threw a bbq at his house last Friday for his birthday
Ash is right. We never can take a decent picture together -_-
When i arrived, QueenKanch happily wrote on my cup for me, as to mark whose is whose (read: shortage of cups).
Had to la, Kanch
As i was eating, i saw a strange phenomenon right before my eyes.
A child.
Sitting.
On QueenKanch’s lap.
Kanch hates kids.
She says abominable things such as, “If i have two children, of course i’d layan the prettier one more,” and “Of course i’ll have children, they’re an investment.”
To which Ash will beg her not to have kids while i choke with laughter.
So there she was. With a kid on her lap.
And she was teaching her how to read *faints*
Kanch: No, read it again. You’re not listening to me. If you don’t get it right we’re not going to the next page.
Lareyna squirmed on Kanch’s lap, but i must say Kanch was very patient and gentle.
Her maternal instincts (for investment konon -_-) peeking through. Eek!
Tried getting a picture and Kanch kept hiding. Whatever Kanch. The picture is going up, blur or not blur.
JollyMooky (will be performing at Sunburst!); SusuNick got a haircut, thank god; Mel!
I heard Fai pulled a PassedOutBen and passed out before midnight.
The boys did a good job ha ha!

Went for the BOH Cameronian Arts Awards 2007 Nominees party in Alexis, Gardens, last night.
You can view the nominee list *here*
Janet of SoulDoctor. That woman’s quite mad, I don’t know exactly how many blogs she has!

QueenKanch alerted me to new arrival of Shu Uemura eyelashes at their 1U outlet so i went to buy them last week.
The orange ones aren’t new, but they’ve been out of stock for ages. The other new ones are pastel or have flowers on them which do not tickle my fancy… so i just got their black ones.
“They’re weird… 0_o”
“I know! Can’t wait to wear them!”
The last time we met up with FoxyLisa, i passed LilClaire’s Christmas pressie to her.
FoxyLisa: Oh, Loke Cheng says no fairy presents.
Me: Too late! *whips present out*
I only bought two items for myself during my holiday in Vietnam.
One was a metal hanger with pins to hang my accessories (okay you don’t really want me to describe this in detail).
And the other was this big bag of balls.
Not just ordinary balls.
But colourful plastic ones!
The moment i spotted its vibrancy on the otherwise dull grey street, my eyes glinted and mouth opened to yelp, “I want!” to Milcah.
“Are you serious?” she asked.
“Yeah! But wait… check how much first…”
I’ve been wanting to buy these plastic balls for ages.
But they cost RM129 for a small bag in Toys R’ Us, which even i thought absurd.
There, they cost 150,000 dong! 30 ringgit!
Super cheap!
MUST BUY.
“Let me hold for you la. You’re so small, can’t even hold properly -_- ”
Everyone’s wondering what the hell i’m going to do with them.
Oh c’mon, i could scatter them on a green lawn and take whacky pictures!
i could use them to surprise anybody in their car/office/room!
i could chuck them all into a pool and watch them bob about merrily!
i could pour them into a big box and, urm, sit in it.
The ways you could use these magnificent happy-coloured plastic balls to brighten up any atmosphere is priceless!
“I wouldn’t exactly describe your balls as magnificent…”

When i came back from Vietnam, i noticed Aldo having some huge sale.
Omg. I’m not a sucker for Aldo shoes on full price, i rarely allow myself them, but on sale, it’s all, “Hey! Damn value! All good to go!”
I’ve been having my eye on these mesh pair for ages, waiting for them to go on sale.
And when i noticed they did, the white ones sold out already. Dammit.
So i bought the black ones cos they’re still bloody nice at any rate.
Down to only RM210
As i trotted to Somo in them with my brother, NickIsTaller, i chatted rubbish as how you can do to someone who has no choice but to love you.
“Look. LOOK!” i put a foot up, “My new shoes!” “… oh nice. Black.”
“Black?!” “Yeah… nice wut. Black.”
They’re not just black!
They’ve got 1-inch on the front sole!
Peep-toe slingbacks!
It’s mesh!
And delicate flattering mesh it is too.
With 4-inch wooden soles.
Nice and black?
“Can die wei you describe it like that -_-“
I think you guys need to compliment shoes in a more detailed manner.
