Been back at Puchong since Thursday.

And have had:

- 2 days of durians for dinner
- home-cooked chili crabs
- prawns as huge as your palm
- fa lam ham yue poh (claypot pork belly with salted fish) - my absolute fav!
- slow-boiled old cucumber soup with oysters
- lots and lots of sleep

Just like today - woke up at 10.30, took a nibble on some breakfast, back to sleep, woke up again at 1.30pm for crabs, do some reading, and then 4pm slept again, just woke up at 6pm and what do I smell?

STEAMED HERBAL CHICKEN BREWING AWAY!

One of my all-time fav dish :)

And oh, can't wait to start on Harry Potter!

Have I ever mentioned how much I love stickmen sketches?

A short French animated sketch

I SO KNEW THIS WORD EXISTS!

Last night I was trapped in a very exhaustive dream.
Dreamt that I was inflicted with a disease called Myopia (pronounced: my-oh-pia)
I didn't know such a word exist but it looked and sounded somewhat familiar, prolly picked it up back in school days. Biology classes, heh.
So I wiki-ed it out today and this is what Myopia is.

So, it's just some rabun mata shit!
And yes, I have Myopia a.k.a Short-sightedness as we all were told by when we have our eyes checked.
But in that dream, Myopia sounded like some deadly disease and I was told by the doctor that the only way to cure it is by... wait, let me reveal it towards the end of this entry, because it is SO FREAKIN' WEIRD.

I wanted to find out what dreaming of Myopia means, and as usual I went to DreamMoods.com.
1st search: Myopia --> No results found (so ok, it's not common to dream about myopia!)
2nd search: Disease --> Found!

Disease
To dream that you are inflicted with a disease, foretells that you will catch a slight cold or cough. Sometimes you dreams are able to spot an illness before you are aware of the symptoms.

Helloooooo? Perhaps I should request to have my fore-warning dreams to arrive earlier and not let me know when I am already having a cough? Mr Sandman, take note pls.

Ok, so the doctor in my dream told me that the only way to cure the so-called deadly disease known as Myopia, is by drinking lots of beer.

Dear Brother of mine OR Mr Tay,

Should you want to redeem yourselves for:

finishing all the durians before I could get some last week (to brother)
making me wait so long the other night (to mr tay)

you can do so by getting me a copy of this wonderful book. Kindly remember to insist only on

*this*

and

*not this*

these are non-HP fans, tsk tsk tsk. must illustrate properly 

Commercial break:
New instant cup noodle brand in town - IBM!
Head over to your nearest supermarkets to grab some.
Yum ~

I'm at home waiting for Ellen DeGeneres to repeat later in the noon. I absolutely love her show, the best day-time talk show EVAR! She's brilliantly witty, funny, humourous, naughty, and just about anything that describes the word F-U-N. Loved her right from the very first episode that I've watched. Planning to download oops, buy all her episodes since I've missed quite a number of them.

Channel 70 is showing Irritating OC. And for some unexplained reason, I kept watching the SAME episode! The last time I was working from home, it was this SAME OC episode playing on the tv! And it is quite sappy la this episode I have to admit. Some old couple got married, this guy that was leaving town and Mischa Barton (i think her name's Marissa in this show?) and just about everyone's feeling sad, whiny and mellow. Gah! I need chirpy chirpy shows, just like ellen's!

I was thinking of ordering Mun Yee Meen from downstairs for lunch later as they do deliveries. I'm just too lazy to go out and besides I'm still in my PJs, heh! But guess what, I just realized that they closed down last month. And McD's no longer delivers to Damansara Perdana! What theeeeeeee!

I will just have to settle for the IBM Hot Spicy Curry Noodle then.
Yum. Indeed.

My office is having a DURIAN PARTY tomorrow. OMG! It's like this eat all you can thingy and I've never done that, not with Durians! They even include Mangosteens and Rambutans and I love love love all of them! And the flyer states that the durian fest is to be held beside a pond. I've never eaten durians beside a pond!!! How jakun, but ya I'm psyched for tomorrow! Except... I hope my throat recovers by tomorrow... else

Ok, back to work!

Today I had Curry Laksa at Old Asia for lunch.

Chose to sit outside, al fresco style.
I've always loved eating outdoors. Like, having a picnic (no guy has ever brought me to a picnic before!), BBQ grill with lots of beer and a bunch of your friends over, or even

... having a sandwich on the bench with your ipod stuck into the ears at a park. And on that fateful day, you spot cute angmoh guy walking his dog and suddenly he stops by and asks whether he could join you.
The delighted you obviously nods approvingly.
And then you two rambled on about how beautiful the weather is, the sandwich, the neighborhood, his dog, and ya, I got carried away.
(sorry, but this always seem to look and work better when you're like in Hyde Park or something).
The parks here nowadays are filled with Mat Rempits, so don't even bother looking for New Age Sensitive Males walking their dogs

But, the point is too much air-cond is bad for your skin, if you know what I mean

So, there's a Diving Centre next to Old Asia.
There were a bunch of people taking their diving lessons today.
What caught my eye was this teenage angmoh boy, about 16 or 17, shirtless and he was sitting around, waiting to put on his diving suit.

He wasn't looking out at the others practising their stuff in the pool.
Neither was he talking to anyone.
In fact, he was doing something very productive.
Half slurping my noodles, I have to admit it was quite amusing watching him diligently pulling out hairs from his left nipple.

He was concentrating so hard that he couldn't even hear his coach yelling out to him to have him put on his suit.

*tug tug tug*

*yank*

*ouch!*

That seems to be the order of the whole process.
He did it for the whole duration of me savoring my Curry Laksa till my last spoon.
And then he threw those little strands of hair into the pool.

While waiting for the bill to arrive, we lingered around longer.
Nipple Hair-Tugging Boy was walking past our table.
I couldn't help but stare at THE SPOT to check whether the area has indeed turned red as I would expect it to be.

Surprisingly, no.
The area was still as white as he was.
But really, shouldn't it turn red?!

Mr Tay pulls hair too.
His nostril fluff.
And he does it with much gusto that he always end up sneezing for the next half an hour.

... but you really wanna should stay away from getting more shoes, bags or clothes.

*feeling merry indeed*

I have a cough.
And I've been coughing every night for the past 3 days.

And today Sue pointed out that I have dark undereye circles.
Not just dark, she even described the color.
"Like purplish black like that."

WHAT THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

11.21 Annoying Guard came again. This time, was asked to move car away
11.22 Got off car into driver's seat and drove car into the streets of KL
11.24 Panicked. Where? How? Which turn?
11.26 Seached for hp to call Mr Tay. Left hp at home!!! Started mumbling, "Pls God, don't let me get lost around KL. Pls pls pls."
11.28 Saw a turn into the Maxis building area. IMMEDIATELY turned in and heaved a great relief, 'Hallelujah!'

boy and girl in the car...

girl: do you think your car's an Autobot or Decepticon?
boy: decepticon.
girl: *stopped breathing* *stares at boy with disbelief (almost tearing)* but whyyyyyy? *wails*
boy: hahahhaha. AUTOBOT la of coz! what kinda question was that!
girl: *phew* *don't have to dump him yet*

The movie was fantastic. Yes, we watched it a little later than the rest of our friends did, so I kinda had this huge expectation since EVERY SINGLE SOUL we spoke to, said it was so goddamn freakin' good.

And yes. IT WAS SO GODDAMN FREAKIN' OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOD.

Anyways...

- why is Megatron not a gun in this movie?
- why is Bumblebee not a Volkswagen as he originally was?
- why is that annoying Frenzy (cd player) not retained as a cassette?
- and where is Rumble, his sidekick?
- why is the transforming sound used only twice? 1st - during Blackout's and 2nd - very subtlely in Sector Seven when they charged up the phone  *potong stim*
- and the mother of all questions: why is OPTIMUS PRIME so damn yau yeng!!!!!!!!!!! he da man robot!!!

Anyways, I am very pro at doing the Transformers sound. Nah-uh, not just any sound, but THE Autobots Transformation Sound. I do it all the time since the past couple of weeks to put a smile on Mr Tay's face and to which each time he goes, "not like that, stupid girl."

Hear ME do it, HERE *click*
The REAL transformation sound HERE
