Take Off

In the mood for Take Off by 2PM


These kids are ready for their take off this afternoon.

One will go to Finland, another to Shanghai, the rest to Russia, USA and the Netherlands.

Have to admit, even after over a year sending and receiving postcards through Postcrossing, I've never get bored of it. A bit malas, yeah, at several points of time. But never bored.

Wanna know why?

I love the feeling of receiving postcards. Nope, not only that. Snail mails included. And oh, packages too. Especially internationally. And I bet most of us feels the same too.

A friend once was a bit skeptical to this exchange. There's this hidden danger to this by exposing your address to the world, that said friend said. True, true.

This thing is actually more or less like that international pen pal thingy I once took part in many many years ago. You give out your address in order to get someone else's address, so you can start your search for a prince from other country. Well, not actually for that purpose, but it sure feels great if you got one. And I remember paying RM2 (or was it RM20? Tak ingat, around that la kot) to get my name and address in the loop.

The most significant pen pal I had that time was someone by the name of Micaela Kurcgor or something like that, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She was the only pen pal whom I kept in touch the longest, about 4-6 years I guess; lost contact when both of us enter pre-U (she went to a college, guess pre-U only exists in Malaysia?), and also due to the information age where snail mails are thing of the past.

The similar thing about this Postcrossing and that pen pal thingy is both are relying heavily on trust. Providing personal information is an act of trust and should be taken seriously. They should only provide your address to the intended recipient, and you will have to trust them for this to happen.

Yes, you should not simply trust anyone. Especially the net. But by being too rigid, you are shielding yourselves from the many incredible possibilities of the world.

I've broken out of this shell when I first did my online transaction to buy books from MPH (at that time I don't think Postcrossing already existed).

When I first set up my Postcrossing account, I was being very cautious. But when the postcards started to came in, I felt very happy (especially when I received those cute ones =] ) I even set up another account for this.

So.. why don't you get ready for your take off?

A Horrid Sunday

[This post contains graphical references. Avoid reading if you hate to read anything with regards to body fluid disposal, something like that. You have been warned, and any distasteful remarks will be deleted.]

Maybe it was because of something I ate on Saturday, my stomach started to buat hal on Sunday morning about 8.05-ish.

A Post Delayed.

Not this one. There's one in my iPod, waiting to be finished. This is just garnish. To keep this blog alive. Something like that la.

I hate it when my internet's down. It's not like I can't do anything else when it's down. In fact, it gives me the perfect opportunity to blog. But then, due to the high level of malasness... I need not to say more.

I think I have done a post like this one before. But then I don't really care of how many times I've been ranting about internet connection yang mega sucks. And I really want to know, is it just me, or are there any other angry souls who face this same shitty experience.

Kalau aku ade tak bayar langsung ni tak pe la jugak serbis macam ni. Ni tiap2 bulan on time tu. Dah la aku cakap toksah call lagi pasal auto payment, dia pi call aku lagi 3 kali? Tak reti bahasa kot?

Puan R di Bank M

Beberapa orang dah tau aku nak beli rumah dekat lubuk yang sedang membangun sana. Jadi untuk melunaskan cita-cita (betul ke penggunaan melunas ni tah) mesti la nak kena apply loan.

Maka tengah-tengah mensurvey ni, pergi la dekat Bank M kat BBA ni sebab omma dah buat appointment dengan Puan R. Sampai-sampai je Puan R ni takde kat meja dia, pegi mana tah. Lepas agak dalam 5-8 minit gitu baru dia ade. Rude #1.

Omma pun mula la bercakap. Puan R ni mungkin la tengah mendengar, tapi tangan ngan mata kat blackberry. Rude #2.

Tengah omma mengeksplen, tiba-tiba dia cakap kuat "bak sini IC." Ingatkan dia cakap kat kitorang, rupanya kat kawan dia. Rude #3, and rude #4.

Dah selesai dia berBB dan menolong kawan dia while we're sitting in front of her buat-buat cakap pasal loan ASB, dia pun bertukar ke mode service excellence. Sekali lagi tengah omma duk explain, tetiba dia divert attention, kali ni kat sorang Tuan Haji ni. Walaupun cakap pasal kes tanah runtuh baru ni, still rude jugak. So yang ni rude #5.

Dalam masa sejam yang pendek tu, dia boleh rude kat kitorang 4-5 kali. Bukan dia tak boleh cakap sorry ke excuse me ke. Customer ade depan mata kot.

Dengan perangai macam tu, tambah lagi dengan appearance (pakai tudung siti jarang nampak rambut kuning; kuku panjang bercutex clear- maybe pakai dari 2-3 minggu lepas lagi kot; muka lak sungguh smug), nak jual kat aku Islamic loan... baik tak payah kot.

Pagi tu kami bangun awal, kul 6:45am dah turun makan breakfast.

Since Chinese breakfast (vegetarian) cuma ada kul 8:30am, so we opt for toast and jam (dah dua options tu je yang ade).

Left the building about 7:00am-ish. MRT takde la ramai orang sangat, mostly Filipino & Bangladeshi yang nak kena masuk keje awal. Turun kat MRT Harbour Front nak naik monorel gi Sentosa. Lalu shopping complex dan naik ke level atas sekali.

Penat minggu lepas masih belum selesai, haish.

Decisions, decisions.

In the mood for My Heart is Beating by K.Will
Have lots to think about nowadays. Most of it involving money. Car, house, travels, studies, room, furnitures, work, etc.

And my own life.

Am trying not to think too deep. Might get drown in it sooner or later. Can see half of me sinking now.

But still, I have to decide on some things, like, pronto.

Takpe lah, some of it boleh tunggu duit kutu bulan tujuh kang.

Judging people is one of my forte.

I don't mind if you want to give me your opinions or assumptions or whatevers. But if you assuming I've nothing better to do other than being brash...

You see, I judge people who are worth judging.

Please don't act like you're "all that", when you don't even practise what you preach.

Also, it doesn't hurt to say sorry if you know you're in the wrong (pesan kat diri sendiri jugak ni).

A Satisfying Aglio e Olio

In the mood for Pasta.


Aku tak bape minat sangat makan aglio olio ni. Main reason would be because banyak sangat minyak (well dah nama pun aglio e olio - garlic and olive oil - sah2 banyak minyak).

Tapi lepas nengok cite Pasta ni (thanks to Irni and Wan Noor), rase macam teringin sangat pulak la nak makan.

So last Friday aku pun mengajak Irni pergi mencarik aglio olio ni. Memula plan nak pergi Secret Recipe, last2 detour ke Pizza Hut. Kat situ ade la prawn oglio spaghetti. Rase dia so-so je. Minyak dia pun macam tak cukup, maybe sebab ade prawn so nak kurangkan kolestrol level. Dan juga maybe sebabnye aku rase aku punye resipi lagi sedap kot muahahahaha :P

Anyways, oleh kerana aku teringin sangat nak masak mende alah ni tapi dapur gas tengah buat hal pulak, so aku letak je la resepi aku sendiri.

Malam tadi pergi BBQ kat rumah sorang kawan kepada kawan. Kenyang gile la jugak makan kat situ. Ikan pari bakar dia sedap! Marinate dia yang buat sedap tu.. orang yang buat marinate tu cakap dia tambah gula merah. It seems like mende2 yang aku makan sedap recently ade gula merah dalam resepi dia.. heh!

Tapi tu bukan topik perbincangan hari ni.

Was supposed to get an entry done by last night, but the internet connection is like having its worst crap in the history. I dunno how long I'll be connected this time, hopefully it won't be short-lived. I don't like the idea of typing entries without being connected.
