Can you believe it's Friday all over again?? The days are just passing by so damned fast! Felt like it was just last week we ushered in the new year and what do you know, before I could even catch my breath it's already the middle of May! Whoah!!
So what are your plans for today? Anything special planned for the weekend? A night out celebrating the end of the work week maybe? Or maybe a nice weekend getaway?
As for me, well as usual, I have absolutely nothing planned! Ahahahahahah. I don't have much of a life these days and no, I'm not going to go into details about why I don't have much of life. We'll save that story for another day.
I actually like Fridays. Most Fridays my good friend Anita would come by my house and have lunch with me. Sometimes when I feel up to it we would go out to eat but mostly we just eat at my place. It's nice to have company once in a while.
I rather enjoy my Friday lunch dates. It gives me something to look forward to (spoken like a true no life-er). I find figuring out what to cook and trying to get all my cooking done before Anita arrives rather exciting (yes, I know I sound pathetic but just try and humor me alright).
Cooking and entertaining have always been a passion of mine. I remember the dinner parties I used to host when I was living on my own back in my student days in good ol' KL. Most Sunday nights I would gather some of my closest friends and treat them to a hearty home cooked meal (Sarawakian style of course).
Ahh.. those were the days, the joys of being young and care free. Well, enough reminiscing. I need to go dig around in the fridge and figure out what to cook for lunch. It is now 7.20am I have just over four hours to investigate my ingredients and come up with a menu so sayonara!
Have a great Friday folks!

Bookworm!
Good morning (or noon or evening or whatever)! It's 8.08am and I have been up all night downloading kindle e-books from amazon.com. Yes ladies and gentleman.. my latest obsession is downloading e-books.. FREE e-books to be more precise. Yes, I'm cheap but seriously, why waste money unnecessarily when I can just get it for free (LEGALLY) online? I don't know why I never thought to look online before.
I guess it all started when my favorite 2nd hand book store closed down (or moved away, I never did find out what hhappened to it). I became desperate for something to read so I started browsing online for some cheap alternatives. Not being able to find anything locally, I decided to just log on to one of my favorite online shopping site, yes you guessed it, amazon.com.
Just so you know, I have been lusting after a kindle e-book reader for a few years now. Every time I log onto amazon, I never miss the chance to ogle at a kindle and every time i would be praying and hoping that by some miracle the price would be super cheap. No such luck (so far)!
Well, as usual I was ogling at all the different selections of kindles and checking out e-books when I realize there is a kindle app that we can download so we can read kindle e-books on non kindle devices like our computer, ipad, iphone, and also any android device. I was ecstatic! It was safe to say I wasted no time downloading the app on my computer (I can't even afford a kindle so I obviously do not own any android device, iphones or ipads).
The moment I finished downloading the app I got down right to it and begin my quest of downloading as many e-books from amazon as I possibly could. You would be surprised at how many titles are offered FREE on amazon. Yes you read me right, FREE! I was in bookworm heaven.
I have downloaded 80 free e-books so far. I'm greedy so I will be scouring for more. Life is good but what would make it even better? A KINDLE! I hope to be able to finally afford one really soon, in the mean time, if there is any generous soul out there who wants to buy me a Kindle Touch 3G (my kindle of choice), all I can say is, I will love you loooong time!! :P

Lameness Overload!
Yes, you heard me right.. this is indeed lameness overload. Why? Well this blog is starting to sound like a joke! Every time I get excited about being back in blogging action, the excitement fizzles off the moment I click post! Grrrrr! Is it possible for a human being to be as lazy and as unmotivated as I am? I really would like to know... then at least I wouldn't feel so bad about myself. Ahahahaha..
Well, if it is any consolation, a lot of life changing things have been happening in my life since my last entry, but being the lazy ass and kill joy that I am, I'm not going to talk about it right now. Stay tuned for my next update (cross your fingers and hope it would happen soon! hahaha) and I might be motivated enough to share the details. As for now, I'm off to bed (I think)!
p/s: I know! I know! I'm hopeless. But I know you still love me! *wink*

The Lazy Blogger...
Hello folks!
How are you today? I was sitting down in front of the computer after lunch and I was thinking to myself, I've not touched my blog for almost a gazillion years! How is that possible? In March I was so gung-ho about me being back and for you all to stay posted and errmm.. well, bwahahahahahaha I guess that was all just hot air huh?
Seriously though it's like my brain cells are slowly dying of bit by bit.. It's like I can't think anymore.. and inspiration is a real bitch! Where is it when I need it the most? Grrrrrr!
Well I'm going to try and blog as much as I can and keep this blog alive. We can't let this blog die off just like that now can we?? No! I refuse to let that happen! So my promise to all of you is, I will at the very least try and blog once a week.
OK guys, gotta go! You all take care and stay cool and look out for my very next post alright? Muaaaaaahhh!

Long Absence...
It's really funny how in a blink of an eye two WHOLE months have come to pass.. It didn't just pass by quietly but in fact, a whole lot of things have been happening in that two months. These past two months have been pretty crazy for me socially and also emotionally... I'm starting to re-discover guys. Yes people, despite my painful experience with men.. I'm starting to re-discover them.. Ahahahh..I'm starting to get back in the game.
I am still pretty wobbly like a new born foal.. still trying to re-learn the dating game. Contrary to popular belief, it's not woman that is hard to understand.. In fact, it is MEN that is extremely difficult to understand! I'm serious! I have been trying so hard practically all my adult life to understand them.. but to no avail!
Well, I guess the coming months would be pretty interesting. I have lots of men related stories to share.. Of course we'll leave that for the next post.. So just wait for it! Cheers!

February
Ahhh.. February is coming to an end.. A lot of things happened this month.. There was Thaipusam, Chinese New Year... Valentine's Day and yes, my father's 4th anniversary. I really can't believe it have been 4 years since he left us to be with God. I really miss my daddy. It's not hard to see that I'm daddy's girl. I miss you soooooo much daddy!! Hope you are happy where ever you are.. May God bless your soul.
Death.. It never fails to pay each one of us a visit.. It comes in many forms. Be it our own death or those of our loved ones. Of course there's nothing much we could say about it when it's our own, we're dead after all. Dead people can't form opinions. Or maybe they they could but we just can't hear them. Ahahahaha.
Last month I lost my lovely dog Maia... I was dealt a double blow this month when I lost yet another dog. I lost my puppy Xena.. Yes, Xena the daughter of Maia.. Fate could be cruel but I have to be strong. My only consolation is that at least now Maia won't be alone.
Okay, let's move on. The topic of death is depressing and I do not wish to dwell on it for longer than I should. It's the 28th today. Chap Goh Mei! Yes.. the 15th day of the Chinese New Year.. the end of the celebrations. Isn't Malaysia wonderful? It's one celebration after another... Woohoo!
One celebration that was pretty different for me this year was Valentine's Day. I just realized that it's the 1st Valentine I've had in a really long time where I'm single.. Yup.. Single! Alone! I'm not too bothered by it though. I've been pretty blessed to have had somebody to share my Valentines with all these years (and just because I have somebody to share it with doesn't necessarily made it good).
On that note, I think I rather like being single. I have forgotten the freedom and independence that comes from being single. It's pretty liberating. I'm absolutely loving it! My life is starting to fall into place. I'm doing what I want to do whenever I want to do it. Its like a breath of fresh air!
February have been a pretty interesting month for me. Made plenty of new friends from around the world. Caught up with old friends. Pretty amazing experience. I hope that all the coming months promises to be as interesting and as fruitful as it have been. I pray God will bless me and all my undertakings..
