Oh My Dear Candice...

 

It happened just so sudden. I wasn't prepared for it. It was a rainy night, and I was traveling back with her after a night out with some friends when it happened. She began to act weirdly, as though she is trying to tell me something. I just ignored and carried on. She reacted even more violently....choking, shaking, gasping for air...as though it was a sign that her time is up. Yet I pushed her to go even further, thinking that she was just being emotional and will come to her senses soon. Then it happened...the next day...she didn't respond to me calling. There wasn't a sound...not even a whisper. Is she dead?! I panicked and called for help. A friend came over to help me try "resurrect" her but to no avail. I called for the professionals and they came and took her away in hopes of reviving her. I pray that she will be well and that everything will be ok again...and that it doesn't cost me a bomb to fix my car!

Introducing...Sayuki Matsumoto (松本さゆき)

Ok, so I just ran out of ideas on what my next blog entry would be and then I thought...let me share with you about a secret "obsession" that I once had...let me tell you about my "love affair"....Sayuki Matsumoto. Who is she? Well, she is a Japanese race queen/model turned soft porn superstar. She is very big in Japan and has a cult following (duh!) and if you just do a Google search on her, and then view through her photos, I'm sure you'll understand why guys (including me) go ga-ga over her. I mean look at her...

Say No To Lafite

We had a company subsidised lunch at Lafite at Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur. It was supposed to be fine dining and high class since it has won numerous awards and have excellent reviews about their food. Well, it was my first time there (since people like me can't afford these places often) and I got to say, IT WAS SO DISAPPOINTING! The food wasn't that great...the ambiance was just like any ordinary hotel terrace cafe (in fact...I've seen better ones...don't let the picture on link fool you!). And to top it off, their staff weren't really well trained due to a certain incident that happend. Ok, it's too long for me to bitch about it since my colleague already blogged about it, I shall leave it for you to read here.

Would I go back there again? Are you nuts?!! After all that...I don't think it's worth the money. It's not that I can't afford it....but seriously...RM25++ for a glass of fruit juice that is not even freshly squeezed? I think NOT!

Bachelor Night Party

A friend is getting married so we threw him a bachelor night party in an undisclosed location.
It involves 10 guys, A LOT of alcohol, whip cream, M&Ms, raisins and a stripper.
Party lasted till 5AM, went for breakfast and I got home at 7AM.

There won't be any photos or more details because we all swore that whatever happened that night, stays within the group.

I shall leave it to your imagination on how the night went. =)

*Slap Slap Slap*

It's 745AM....I jumped out of bed...rushed to the washroom...came back out...only to remember...IT'S SATURDAY!!!! .....went back to sleep till 1030AM....says a lot right?...sigh!

Super Multitasking

Who says men can't multitask? I did (but should NEVER be attempted unless your're a trainned professional =p) something this morning which just proved the theory wrong. This was what happend this morning. I was on my way to the office, when suddenly I received a text message from a colleague from the office telling me that a client was looking for me and it was REALLY URGENT. Well, I text back my colleague to ask if she taken down the number of the client but she said the client told her that I got her number. Hmmm...I was about 10 mins away from the office, so I just told my colleague that I'm nearby and will return the call once I get in.

Right after doing so, I got stuck in a traffic jam! Well...feeling uneasy, I wanted to call the client back since it was urgent..BUT....the contact number is in my laptop on the back seat of my car!....So what to do? Being stuck in a jam, I stretched out to the back seat and grabbed my laptop, turned it on and searched through my contact list while driving!...So now I got the laptop on my lap, and my mobile phone on the one hand, and the other holding the steering wheel! I was lucky that traffic was slow otherwise I think I would have gotten into an accident. After all that trouble, it turns out the client only wanted some text copy to be changed on the already "live" site...not really crucial if you ask me....GAH!!!

Luckly there wasn't any cops around at that time and I think if I had another extra hand, I would use my camera to take a photo of how I did it...hahaha...I wonder what the world record is for multitasking while driving...

Sai Mm Sai Ah?

I was driving pass the LDP last night and I saw this:

Ok, so this is old news to some, and yes this pic was taken by a friend earlier in the day, but anyway.... at first many people thought this was a hoax but not until The Star reported it when everyone believed it. David Tan is the face on the billboard. He did fork out RM 40k for the billboard space and to top it off, he got her a RM14k ring. Kelly Tan E Li, you must be the luckiest girl on Valentine's Day. Question is...is it worth to splurge all that cash? I mean I can understand, if you're a son of a millionaire or you've hit the lottery or something, but no ordinary person would do something so dramatic and public. If this is the proposal, can you imagine the wedding? Isn't a person always suppose to "one-up" the proposal? But ever wondered what will happen if she declines? Do you think he has a back up plan or a 14 day money back guarantee policy?? But anyway, my hats off to the lad! You have set a very high benchmark for us guys here. Spoil market lah you!!! So to all guys, be prepared!

It just goes to show that sometimes, love holds no bounds.

NYE 2007: The Aftermath

This is a follow up from the previous post, featuring pictures of us and the star of the night Zara, after the celebrations ended on NYE. Pictures courtesy of Rozell.








...it just goes to show what an overdose of alcohol can do to you...hehe!

NYE 2007

Last Monday night, it's not only NYE, it was also Zara's birthday. So obviously, it's a double reason to celebrate (and drink!). Seeing that everyone will be at the major countdown hotspots in the Klang Valley, we actually wanted to have a small celebration with a group of friends at Zara's place. But after giving a lot of thought about the mess and cleaning up the aftermath, we decided to have it at a bar/bistro called Studio-X who is runned by one of Zara's friends in Taman Desa. Well, having it there means that we do not have to get stuck in traffic, suffocate amongst the sea of humans....and most importantly....CHEAP ALCOHOL! It's also very near Zara's place so she can't use the excuse that she has to drive back...because technically...she can even walk back (if she can walk by the end of the night that is..)

Here are the pics from that night:

This is Zara the birthday girl...now still cute..wait till later

"....please let this be my last drink..."

"What?!! One more??!!!!" - Not so cute now eh? =p

Well it was a rather fun and "quiet" night. We didn't see fireworks go off because we were seeing our own"fireworks" already when the lights became fuzzy and blurry...Zara..hope you had a blast...and yea..this is pay back for what you done to me on my birthday!...revenge is sweet!

Company Dinner Cruise

Last Friday, I had a company Christmas dinner on a boat. No really! I'm not kidding! My company charted a whole boat for a dinner cruise at Putrajaya. Well I got to say, it was something quite different. It was a fine-dining, 4-coursed meal, and honestly, it was pretty decent. The cruise took about 2 hours including the dinner. Prior to that, we brought along our gift wrapped presents to be exchanged during what we call "Dirty Santa". It was fun, except that I ended up with a box of micro jigsaw puzzle with a Disney picture! *grrr* When I say micro, I'm talking about a 200 piece jigsaw that fits into a box the size of a deck of cards. You can imagine how small a piece is right? Well, the whole idea of "Dirty Santa" was to take away another person's gift in exchange for what he/she wants. I had an Umbro shoe bag, but was "snatched" away in returned for the jigsaw!! Anyway, I will tell you the rules of "Dirty Santa" later.

Here are some pictures from that day..

"Dirty Santa"....notice I initially HAD the shoe bag

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us!!!

Embarrassing Stories

If you're thinking that these stories are my embarrassing stories...well...think again! But hey, I would like to share these 2 incidences that I have actually encountered courtesy of others and by the end of both, you tell me which one is more embarrassing.

Incident 1
This took place at One Utama shopping centre a very long time ago (it was during my secondary school days). Back then, it was a trend to wear low-cut baggy jeans till they look like they're going to fall off or something (remember that time?). Anyway, it was a friend's birthday, and we were suppose to meet up in the shopping centre for a birthday celebration with a bunch of girls from another school, because my friend invited them. Our meeting point was in front of Jusco supermarket (back then there was no new wing yet!). So the birthday boy was sporting his baggy jeans that day in hopes of impressing the girls. It was so low, you could actually see his underwear from the back. We were there first, and later the girls came by and talked to my friend the birthday boy. I being the prankster, yanked his jeans hard till it fell straight down to the floor while he was talking to the girls (luckily he was wearing underwear!). Not only that, can you imagine the amount of people in that area?!! My friend was so embarrassed; he pulled his jeans up and chased the hell out of me, leaving the girls there stranded. I think I might have mentally scarred him for life during that incident.

Incident 2
A friend and I were driving around one afternoon and I had to stop to go use the restroom. So we stopped by this petrol kiosk as my friend had to fill up the tank anyway. I went in to the gents and had to use one of the cubicles as the urinals were out of order (so typical right?). So anyway, there were 2 doors. One was obviously closed and locked which only left the one which was slightly opened. Needless to say, I pushed it opened so that I can enter, and to my horror, there was a young girl there squatting taking a dump in full view!! The girl didn't scream or anything as I guess she was too shocked or embarrassed herself to react. I just said sorry (duh!!) and closed the door and went out laughing telling my friend of what happened. It turns out, the ladies restroom is locked and requires a key from the counter to be opened. I guess she was having an "emergency" and didn't bother asking. Why the heck do most of the petrol kiosks lock the ladies restroom to begin with anyway??!! So yeah, can you imagine that girl? She probably came out peeking if I was still around before coming out of the restroom. Oh, btw, I managed to hold it in and went to a shopping mall to relieve myself later on :)

So which do you think is more embarrassing eh?

Saturday Night @ Groove Junction

Sometimes, there is nothing better than just hanging out with your close friends for a drink and chilling out on a Saturday night. Well, my Saturday night was relatively quiet as compared to the night before where I was at The Loft on Heritage Row till they closed.

Suzanne suggested we go to Groove Junction at Sri Hartamas. It's suppose to be a place for Jazz but it was Hip-hop night and there was a live performance that night. The place was kinda okay, but a Hip-hop performance just wasn't my cup of tea. I mean, I like Hip-hop but those performers sort of kill the mood with their Snoop Dogg-50 Cent wannabe act. Well, at least the beers were cheap as it was only RM8 per mug of Tiger Beer for the whole night.

Suzanne, Me and May Lynn

Overall, it was kinda okay I guess as I will be going back there for their Jazz performances coming Tuesday and Friday night.

Stranded

Last night after work, I met May Lynn and Evie up for dinner at The Curve, and later proceeded to Wabisabi in Plaza TTDI to have some drinks. Later, May Lynn left after having some "joy juice" apple vodka which both of us recommended her...hehehe. Evie and I thought it was rather early to be headed back home (it was only 12AM at that point) so we met Janice and some of her friends up at this place called Waikiki. All I can say is, it's an uncle's joint (why Janice why??!), where you have a live band performing. Evie even said.."Hey...don't be surprise you see your dad here!" Yea...it was that bad..but heck...so long the company was good nothing else matters right?

So anyway, after the drinks, we went across the street to have some "Lok-lok" by the road side. Half way eating, it began to rain. It rained so heavily, we had to take shelter at the nearest shop lots. Well...there we are STRANDED! The rain didn't seem that it will stop anytime soon.

Our "lok-lok" seller packing up :(

Raining elephants and cows!


The stranded bunch

After about 40 mins or so, Alex decided to make a run for it to get his car, since his car was the nearest (one has to sacrifice for all to go home right?). So thanks to him, we all got to go back home. Otherwise, I think we would probably be there until the rain stopped (I was home by 5am and it was still raining!).
