Rush Hour
It is 2 days away from Syawal and I barely even start baking for my house. And not forgetting that my room is still in a mess looking like Hurricane Bee-na just whipped through it. Despite all that, I have to work today. #$%&@! Bummer. Including Wednesday too but half-day. How am I going to squeeze in all the things to do and still have time for ibadah in the evening?This Syawal will be celebrated in a different perspective. People's perspective towards me that is. And why so? Cause I look like crap. I can already hear 'em saying "Hey u look crappy today, btw..Slamat Hari Raya!"
And with that, I would like to wish all Muslim readers & bloggers
Selamat Menyambut Aidilfitri.
It is a season to seek forgiveness and here I am extending my virtual hand with deepest apologies for any hurt I have caused.
Happy Holidays.

Kenapa
Why do I always be have to be the one that caters to others' needs?
Why do I always have to accomodate to please others?
Why do I always have to be sorry when I can't conform to requests?
Why do I always end up helping no matter how unimportant I am to you?
And lastly,
Why do I always have to make way for the opposite pedestrian while walking on pavements?

Sayonara
How do teachers do it yearly? Depending on the level you're teaching I guess. But I clearly remember how unsightly teary the kindergarten teachers get when the K2 students bid their farewell as they move up a step in their academic ladder.
And in my case, it was a mere 6 months, twice a week tuition session with the 2 Eurasian siblings. Yet it was long enough to hold special memories within me. Everytime I ask the younger sister if she has anything to say or ask (during my last session with her) she will say something so cute n sweet.

Me: Please try harder for this exam as a present for me k.
Tammy : *pouts with sad face*
Me: Why your face like that? Will you miss me?
Tammy: Yes
Me: I will miss u too.
Tammy: Why you cannot teach us anymore?
Me: Remember I told you, I'm moving house. It's too far for me to come here.
Tammy: In front my house here got new flats. Why don't you move there?
Me: Cannot. That one not fully ready yet. And it's a condo. Too expensive.
Tammy: Then buy a house in errrr....Bedok lah!
Me: Also cannot
Tammy: Why never buy in Tampines? Or Pasir Ris?
Me: No new house. Out of 10 as a tutor, how many points you give me?
Tammy: 10!!!
Me: Waaah. Sure or not. You only say that because it's my last day right.
Tammy: Noooo! I like Kakak Sabrina. (in a very sad soft voice)
Me: Give me a hug before I go.
Had trouble deciding what to buy them so in the end 'DVD Harry Potter Scene It' game it is. I will definitely miss their comical antics. But I will get over it in time.
Lovelies aren't they.
Oh well. Life goes on.

Koon-chee
Somehow I've always imagined that collecting house key means one giant old bronze looking piece of junk that will open the divined gates to your newly purchased place you want to call home. But I was wrong.There was plenty of keys. 24 pieces to be exact. Not that my house is a giant castle with many rooms and a stinky dungeon. But I didn't think that the room keys, letter box, gate and including doors to be invovled. Then again, I DIDN'T think.
How fascinating though if the key was exactly how I imagined it. Wicked!

Hamly Burger
I need not elaborate this day on the calendar.
With all the tragic disasters hitting places in the world, I just can't seem to find any desire nor words to whine and complain about right now.
I wish I can spend the whole weekend sleeping or cuddling my pillows in bed.
Too tired lah. But sadly, endless of things to do.
Too tired lah. But sadly, endless of things to do.
Before I go, check this clip out. Siti Nurhaliza is too lembut to even seem angry or fierce.
So the lemah. So the demure. My dad would love this.

Oh...why Hamly Burger? Cause that's my new nick for Squarepants. Hurhurhur.
Only because Hamly is part of his longish name. Sound like a rip-off version of Ramly Burger. Hehehe.

Possible Relapse
Could I be having an anxiety attack? The symptoms are hard to ignore. I couldn't sleep at all last night. Had a lot of those nights recently but last nite was the worst. My heart was raging fiercely and the chest was stinging with intensity like its about to explode from the heart's protrusion. The body was entirely exhausted but the mind and eyes simply refuse to oblige. And yet I don't have the slightest idea what is it that is bothering me to this extent. There was so many random thoughts to impossibly point the cause. On top of that, there was hot flashes and sudden chills down my body. Massive fears were stabbing me mercilessly. All these are having nauseating effect on me.
I have experienced this before many years ago. But from what I was told, most people normally will experience this at least once in a lifetime. Back then, it was clear what caused the attack. But this time around, I'm totally clueless. What could it be then if it is not anxiety? I've had countless of visions or nightmares that I will either lose someone close to me or I will be the one to leave this world. This could be related to my sleepless nights. Or am I allowing silly dreams to bother me. It's not real but it sure felt more than just real. I'm probably going crazy.
I'm tired of these sleepless nights. Various measures taken to calm myself seem not to work. All I want is to have a peace of mind and a normal heart beat. Please.

Double G
Stands for? We'll come to that later..
It is rewarding at times to have an argument or drive your partner insanely up the wall and spread to the ceiling. And in my case, I was the one at the ceiling. So insane that I wish to be left isolated so I can enjoy the view from the ceiling while lunacy creeps in my crooked smile. Gila.
So what was my unexpected reward? He pops out at my workplace like Jester-Jack-in-the-box from nowhere. Anjat. And what did he have in his hands?

(Answer): Guilty Gifts!!
I loike!! While he has a fairly good taste with the women's footwear, I can do without that Dorothy Perkin's jacket. But fret not, I'll be making a trip to exchange that with probably a nice dress or top. Yipppeeeeeee!
Now, now... I do feel guilty too that he spend that much just to say sorry. Sungguh. But now hor...let's lookout for another opportunity for another reward probably next month!! Evil!

Here goes
Not that anyone would care or let alone read this. But this is for you Nazzie. Bad Nazi. Oops. I mean Nazzie.
3 Things about me
1. I can't stomach killing or dying scenes in movies. Mutilating scenes are a NO NO! My Attu says it's weird how I'm so fierce but yet so timid when it comes to these. Seriously. We just watched 'Into The Blue' last week on impromptu. Boring movie by the way. And I was jumpy at the shooting-in-the-head part. When I mean jumpy, I literally jumped in my seat. I walked out from the theater only 20 mins thru 'Saving Private Ryan' a long time ago. Those who have watched a movie with me would know this. But I don't get jumpy from horror / thriller movies. Go figure.
2. I get very impatient or panicky over trivial matters but somehow strangely very composed and rational through calamities.
3. Ok this one very malu to say. But heck. I have a fetish for ketiak! WAIT WAIT! Close that gap in your face. This fetish will only develop towards my partner. Whomever I am with at the given moment lah. So which to say I had a fetish to all my exes (not anymore) and current one also. Hehe! But don't go around thinking I would go on a sniffing expedition in the MRT or anywhere for that matter. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeew!!!
Ok dah! Amik ko Nazzie!
Nothing you already don't know I guess, or maybe you never did at all.
That wasn't so difficult.Except the last part! hahaha...
