Choosy Schmoosy...





My friends kept telling me that the reason why I am still single is coz I'm too choosy.

Am i?

I don't think so...

I mean, I don't measure guys by their looks nor skin color. And I don't care what type of car that he drives or even how much he is earning. Where he works, what he work as, where he lives, where he's from, what his parents does... All those things are irrelevant to me.

However, I am particular about finding someone...
... who I can really talk to about anything and everything
... who I can call a friend
... who can guide me towards being a better muslim
... who I can see myself growing old with
... who can tolerate all my quirks and twists

There would be bonus points if he...
... can play the guitar
... has a sexy head (me n my head fettish *lol*)
... looks good in 3/4 pants and loafers
... doesn't chew out loud while he eats
... is taller than me
... looks like adam sandler (hahaha)

It's normal for someone to have their own set of criterias for the man or woman of their dream. However, like the saying "love is blind", you can never tell with whom you might end up with. You might even end up marrying someone who you think was so wrong for you in the first place.

Where am I going with this post? Well, my point is that I am not trying to be choosy. I am just being cautious as not to get myself hurt physically, emotionally and spiritually. With the rate of failed marriages in my family, I am really adamant not to rush this process. Hence, I am taking my own sweet time in finding the 'right' guy for me.


Magic? What magic?

It was a great weekend indeed


Friday


The makan-makan with the crew was great.. There were lots and lots of food as expected (sampai tak muat meja ok..). And while we were feasting on those yummylicious food, we also had a private screening of the video from last Saturday. Hence, began the gossip session for the night... Fun I tell you... Plus there were some 'soft porn' shots taken by accident... hahahaha.... Luckily the only 2 lil' kids around were too busy watching Barney to notice what their moms and friends were laughing about.

DELICIOUS FOOD + GREAT COMPANY + GOOD HARD BELLY LAUGHS = SUPERB NIGHT


Saturday

Had breakfast with a friend that had given me more business ideas to expand on... me likey! Friends like him helps to boost my spirit to carry on with my current plan. What I need now is just to sit down and draw up the new business plan and get myself a financial back-up. There's so much that I want to do, but there are few contraints that are holding me back. When will I be able to realise my dream? Maybe after I get myself my very own 'Datuk' (not the title, the man with the title) kut... NOT!


Sunday

Went to SIC to watch the A1 GP... It was my maiden visit to the race circuit so I was wee bit jakun lar.

Thanks to her, not only did I get to set foot on SIC for the first time, I also managed to get a free grandstand seat, and a visit to the VIP suite. Thank you again, TEEK! *muahs*




So, how was your weekend?

Of broken promises...






When you promise to call,
please do...

When you promise to arrive at a certain time,
please do (+- 30 mins is still tolerable)...

When you can't make it,
please have the courtesy to call and inform the person who is waiting for you about it...

If you can't keep your promises,
then please don't make any at all in the first place...

Cause it's bad enough that you can't make it...
It's even worse when you make someone wait for you...




binx: exam's over!!!

It's 2 a.m. and I can't sleep!!!



The exam is less than 7 hours away...


AND


there's a cockcroach in my room!




I need to get some shut eye.... H.E.L.P.!

And it turned out great...!



After a full 2 weeks of extensive planning, fighting, bitching about people and basically getting down to business, we have successfully executed our plan and had organised a fantabulous reunion!!




No doubt it started on a bad note, with all of us on the organising crew lashing out on each other due to the high stress level and also the mere 4 hours of sleep the night before. Everybody was a bit edgy and I thought that everything that we have worked on for the last 6 months will be going down the drain even before it started. However, despite all the problems between us, we managed to unite and rise above it all to put on a great show.




The music was great, with selection of tunes from the school days. Everybody was singing along to it, while recalling the great memories behind the song.

The food was great too, though I only managed to eat 2 buns with the black pepper beef and lots and lots of mini fruit tarts. The specially ordered cake was beautiful and delicious as well. For those of you that want to order cakes for you kid's birthday party or any other occasions, I would personally recommend you to order from Something Special. They can design practically anything that you want with a great taste to boot for. You don't believe me? Well, just take Jasmine's word for it then... hehehe...


this adorable lil' girl really love the choc cake..


The slideshow turned out great as well, despite the minor glitches that I had encountered few minutes before showtime. All my time going through every single piece of the high school pictures, contributed by friends, and compiling it chronologically was worth while after seeing the happy and cheerful faces of my fellow schoolmates and even the teachers enjoying the show. The smiles and laughter had even managed to erase the negative comments that I've received about the "unprofessional boring slideshow that will not capture people's attention" that I received from an arrogant 'so-called' professional photographer.

All in all, we had managed to touch hearts, rekindled friendships and organised a kick-a** event.

Didn't manage to snap that much pictures though as I was too busy running around and trying to mingle with old friends. So I'd have to wait for the pictures from the photographer that we've hired for the day.



So one down, one more to go....! Time to hit the books.....

Pipi ku, asset ku...



I received an sms from a friend early (very early in fact) yesterday morning saying that my picture was in the NST... Whoa.. Terbeliak mata when I read the message.. What picture? I didn't win anything did I?

So I called her up and found out that it was actually an article about my dear friend, who was also my ex-colleague and study partner for CIMA. She just got admitted as an Associate member and they did a write-up on her. She decided to submit a picture of us, the colleagues, for the article. So I got to tumpang her glamour for the day lar... Thanks Nadia!

However, to my horror, they decided to blow up the picture and it was an extreme close up of my chubby cheeks! So, I kept getting sms'es from friends commenting bout the tembam cheeks..!

Tuh baru a picture taken 2 years ago.. I've just taken a look at the picture that was taken last weekend - the tembam'ness was doubled!

I guess I can't do much to change the chubbiness (is there such word?) level of my cheek.. The fat doesn't seem to be distributed equally throughout my body. Imagine a girl with chubby cheeks and a 'kurus kering' body. Funny ain't it?

Ready to see my tembam cheeks?

taadaaaaaaa.........


So that's me and my tembam cheeks.. The last picture was taken last weekend.. Memang drastic laa the chubbiness in that picture..

Someone suggested going to the beauty slimming center for help... Hmmm... However, I think I shall just live with it laa kut since it has been my trademark for many years... Pipi ku, asset ku, trademark ku... hahahaha...




binx: i'm out of the closet for good...
