Surprise

12 hours ago I accidently dropped my keys (house, scooter, mail) in the gutter -- lost FOREVER. As I was waiting for the lock smith to come, I went to the nearest 7-11 to pay my cell phone bill (they stopped my service due to lack of payment).

Anyway, as I was transfering money on the atm, my phone rings (incoming calls are free)

me: hello?

mystery caller: hey loser..

me: um, hello?

mystery caller: hey loser..

me: hmrph.. who is this?

mystery caller: do you like scary movies?

me: what da *anxiously looks behind shoulder and bam, it sinks in..* YOU!!

mystery caller: *laughs*

it was awesome.

The New Beetle

According to research, the newest VW beetle design appeals more to men..

Seriously?

The Chinese name of the recent movie, Hanna, is: 少女殺手的奇幻旅程.

Now if you do a back translation, its: The young assassin girls' fantasy adventure.

Why couldn't they just say: 漢娜 aka Hanna.

B.U.M

I think there's a bum living in the park -- more specifically, the dog park.

His shopping cart is filled with plastic bags, which was the giveaway, and when he's not lounging on his bench, he has 2(!!!) dogs chillin there watching his stuff.

I don't think he's a threat, he tends to keep to himself when other folks bring their dogs to the enclosed area, but I've been noticing more litter in the dog park due to his occupancy. Yes, I realize the bench is now his domain, but keep it clean! There's a trash can like 10 feet away.

Tik Tok.

Having an ADD moment -- afternoon.

Supposedly working on a launch plan.

But ended up taking the xmas lights down, cleaned the kitchen and wiped the floors.

Dog is at the groomers so the place is quiet.

Now I'm blogging, reviewing past launch plans and having a staring contest at the ppt template all at the same time. I'm either a pro multitasker or an extreme slacker.

Hm, the windows need to be cleaned..

Sassy

I hate riding the MRT during rush hour. The locals live like sardines so when a train comes, they'll pile in even though here is literally no space whatsoever. I tend to stand near the door and pretend I'm a tree so when people try to push themelves in, they have to go around me. It's easier than it sounds cuz most people weigh less than 100 pounds.

So today at one of the stops, this youngin steps on and in the background this older lady was hovering, trying to pile in as well. She kept saying 'excuse me, I want to get in', and the youngin, goes 'there's no space.. what's the point of cramming yourself in here!' followed with '#%*&$'. The old lady looked shocked and though I wasn't exactly gleeful when she crammed herself in, felt bad for the old lady. In between stops, the youngin, clearly annoyed, goes 'stop shoving!'. This time the old lady grew a pair and retorted 'it's you that's shoving!'.

I thought there'd be a rumble! But alas, once the door opened, I got off with the youngin in tow. I should mention that she kinda pushed me, but considering she was a walking time bomb and me being diplomatic, let it go.

Free Yourself

I should know better as I used to be in adveristing, but this ad totally suckered me into buying the newest NIKE FREE XT.

Hope

[I've heard that it's possible to grow up - I've just never met anyone who's actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don't go our way, we whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark, we look for comfort where we can find it, and we hope - against all logic, against all experience. Like children, we never give up hope...]

Yap, I just quoted Greys. A drama series that's so dyfunctional, but yet so wise.

Can't Beat The Feeling

I accidentally drank expired coke.



oops~

Cut Throat

There's this pool game called cut throat that's played by 3 players. The pool balls are divided up into 3 sets. The objective of the game is to sink in other peoples balls -- hence the name, cut throat.

Every man for himself.

What can I say? Son of a mutha effin bitch~

Ready, Get Set, Go!

Something happened throughout the years..

I had perfect attendence in 8th grade (even got an award)..

Zero hour in high school..

7:30am business law class in college -- which I must brag b/c I went a total of 3.5 times and got an A-!

Yet for the life the me, I am always late for work! I admit, my ad days have spoiled me a bit by clocking in at 10, but in the wonderful world that is Imperial, 9am is like pulling teeth with chopsticks!

But its ok b/c I've been playing a game with my boss. She's actually not aware of this game and so far, I'm kicking ass and taking names. The premise is quite simple: as long as I arrive before my boss, I win!

High five!

Happy Chinese New Year!

PDA-ing

Last night at a Starbucks in the upper East side, sat 2 couples showcasing extreme PDA. I, did not appreciate it because it was 1) not cute and 2) almost full on porn.

These kids were young-- say late tweens early 20's. They ordered 2 venti somethings and a cheesecake. I don't really understand feeding your significant other food -- but that's how they were. The bf would feed the girl a bite of cheesecake and then kiss her on the cheek. Another bite, 2 smooches and so on and so forth. I wanted to pull my hair out. His free hand was actually in the vicinity of her crotch and I was just thinking '2 ventis + cheesecake, they could've used that money to get a room...'

seriously!

Sigh, young folks know not of the value of money these days.

Sell! Buy! Sell! Buy!

I've been seesawing for the past year on whether or not to sell my place. The locations great -- next to the subway (and subway sandwich shop), park, grocery store, 7-11 and a million and 1 eateries.

So why sell? Mortgage is killin me. I've been breaking even every month for the past 13 months and still in debt. Lol~

I've been lucky enough to squeeze a trip here and there, but as I'm getting close to my 30's, I'd like to stop this trend of living paycheck to paycheck.

I hear the real estate market is going up again and its a good time to sell... here's the kicker: Where the heck am I going to live? It's me + dog and not all places here rent out to tenants with pets. Should I buy again and go through all the paper work, bank statements, interior designers BS again!?

I asked the IT guy (whose knowledge of the real estate market is just as up to date as his own calling) and he suggested I move to Bali. Not Bali, Indonesia, but the Bali that's 30mins north of the city, that's not really near a subway or grocery store or civilization, but great for hot springs and relaxation!

I'm already a hermit living in the city -- I can't be a hermit living out in booneyland.

>_<"

I hate seesaws.

Table For One + Dog

As Debby is off in Europe living the champagne wishes and caviar dreams life, I am about 2 blocks from my apt, sitting at an outdoor cafe, enjoying my iced coffee(mostly likely made from powder, but still delish!) and basking in the very weird 82 degrees weather.

Le Paris, Yong He is not, but the many scooters parked along the street has it's own charm. The only thing I can do without are the yappy lil dogs at the next table over.

Phuket

my phuket trip in a nutshell. there's pics of le beach on le facebook.

bali (keeping fingers crossed) may be next!
