Tagged

Leandra tagged me last week (I think) but I was too lazy to blog but I know she'll bug me about it soon so here goes...

The Rules of Tag are
:

1. You link the person that tagged you.
2. You post the rules on your blog.
3. You share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
4. You tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
5. Then, you let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.


Oh, I'm skipping Step 1 and Step 4 cause I don't know how to link my blog to another person's. I'm helpless when it comes to computer stuff. Anyways, my 6 non-important things/habits/quirks are..


1. I am obsessed about keeping things in order/tidy. I even have the urge to tidy other people's stuff and will do so if no one is watching. Lol

2. I have a whole drawer (or should I say room?) full of brand new shoes, clothes, make-up, stationaries, bags etc because I feel "sayang" to use them.

3. I must take a bath no matter how cold or how early it is in the morning or else I will feel icky. No matter how many times I tell myself it's ok, (eg. when I'm in a hurry or sick) I'll only feel better after I take the "untaken" bath.

4. Speaking of baths, the first thing I do when checking in into a hotel room or apartment when traveling is take a bath. This is followed by unpacking. Ha ha.

5. I must drink a cup of Milo kosong in the morning after I have wake up and another cup at night before I go to sleep. BIG baby. Lol

6. I comb my hair before going to sleep. *Sheepish smile*

Ok, I shall tag Lala, Michelle, Ah Ben, Raenai, Dew and May Kee :)

Bon Appetite

OMG OMG OMG!

I still can't believe I actually ate pig's tongue for lunch today. Not the tail, not the intestine, not the ear or any other part but the freaking TOUNGUE! I'm so totally grossed out right now. Blame it on Gab who tricked me into eating it -- he told me it was pig's lean soft meat. I can still feel it inside my throat. I think I'm gonna go puke now.

Stalked

Yesterday evening, Gab and I went to Everise to buy some stuff. I promised to make him fruit salad and to buy him a bath brush to scratch his itchy back. Lol

Anyway, I was paying money at the counter when Gab suddenly said "Ling, you look at that guy over there, he keep on looking at us and following us." So I looked at him, and he looked back at me then looked at Gab then looked down. He was wearing T shirt and short pants, was quite tall and fair. He looked liked one of the workers in Everise so we just ignored him.

The fruits were pretty heavy so we decided to put them in the car first before we continued shopping. When we walked out, he was still following us and pretended to be looking at some vegetables when we back looked at him. While walking back to the car, I kept a lookout for him (you can never be too careful) and saw that he was still watching us from the entrance. Spooked, I held my handbag close to me thinking that maybe this guy wanted to snatch my bag.

Sensing my fear, Gab held my hand tightly and wrapped his arms around my shoulder assuringly. Thank God for boyfriends right? :) Hand in hand, we walked back to Everise to head to Watsons. That weirdo was still "waiting" for us at the entrance. I wanted to avoid him but Gab said not to be afraid of him, so we just walked past him. He didn't appear at Watsons or at the cd shop next door so I thought we were finally safe.

I was so wrong.

I wanted to go to Popular to get liquid paper and whilst waiting for the lift to arrive I saw him again! He pretended to go into the cd shop we just went out of and I quickly went into the lift, anxious to get rid of this disturbing person. At Popular, a friend of mine called (all the way from Russia) and we chatted for a bit. I was very distracted and kept looking around me. Whilst I was paying for my purchase, I saw him again. I gave Gab a distraught look and together we walked out of Popular.

While we were outside waiting for the lift, the guy keep looking at us from the inside. Gab signaled him to come out. He knew then we knew he was following us so he quickly hid inside Popular. It was so obvious that we already knew that he was tailing us since we were at the supermarket and yet he still thought we didn't know. DUH! What a stupid stalker.

The lift took ages to arrive so we finally decided to take the stairs. That was the last we saw of him. I guess this will be the absolute last time I will ever go to Everise alone. *Brr* I mean, what does he want from us? There were other people in Everise as well, why did he choose us?

Gab said that maybe he was my secret admirer. His mum said that maybe I looked like his ex. Or his long lost sister. Ha ha. Very funny. Thanks but no thanks. As if the world is not unsafe enough for us girls. First a pervert that steals my undies, now a stalker. I am so flattered. NOT.

Happy Birthday to Us

On the 13th of October 2008, yours truly turned 24 ;) This year, Gab's mum threw us a nice bbq dinner. (Gab's birthday is also in October) There were lots of delicious food including lamb, (my absolute favourite) 'sam chan bak', chicken wings, taiwan sausages, corn, noodles, fruit salad and 'rojak'. *Drool*




Our birthday cake courtesy of Aunt Angela :)


Apart from all the good food, I was also blessed with lots of birthday presents and 'ang pows', something which I will never outgrow despite growing older each year. Hint hint for those who missed my birthday present this year :p





My pressies :)


Presents aside, I had a real nice time just enjoying the food and the company around me. I am truly blessed to be loved by so many people. Thank you all for being a part of my life :)

My Trip to Brunei


Taking full advantage of the holidays during Raya, yours truly went for a trip to Brunei. It was really good to see my favorite sister again. (the last time we met was during CNY this year) The highlight of the trip was of course my dearest nephew Jerome aka Ah Nong. He just turned 8 months on the 2nd of October.





Look at me Ee ee, I'm a monkey! :p


I was told beforehand that he is very fussy. Luckily I was a hit with him :) After spending 4 days with him, I came to the conclusion that he must be a worm in disguise. Lol He really couldn't stay still for more than 1 minute (he would climb and step on my tummy) and wanted to be carried or to go 'kai-kai', something which I happy obliged to when he wanted me to -- he is very good at manipulating even at this young age. He only looks like an angel when he finally does sleep but will wake up the moment my sister leaves the room. So basically, you have to be in the same room as him even when he sleeps. Wanna have babies? Better think twice! Ha ha...



Ah Nong and I


There was really nothing much to do in Brunei besides playing with my nephew, (I played football with him. If u can call it that --- basically I held him by his arms and swung his legs to kick the ball) watching TV (which I did until my eyes almost bled, Ha ha) and shopping! (eyes open BIG BIG d) I bought lots and lots of imported goods, a bag, and 2 pairs so shoes. The best part is my kind sis paid for all of my purchases. Lucky me right? :p



My cinderella shoes!


Oh, I also managed to eat at Escapade Sushi and it was heavenly. I don't normally like sushi but Escapade Sushi made all their dishes look so appetizing. Too bad I didn't take any pictures cause we were all too hungry to be bothered. I shall remember to take pictures the next trip so we can all drool over them. Lol

All in all my trip to Brunei was an enjoyable one. I am thankful that my sister is happily married and wish she would move back here so I can play with my dear nephew everyday.

Ee ee misses you and mummy very much and will go back very soon to visit you ok? Promise...

HUGS and KISSES!




Lost and Found

The case is finally closed. All my missing lingerie, my bikini and my most treasured cheongsam have been recovered though the zip on my cheongsam is spoiled. I shall make him pay! Apparently he hid them in his bathroom in a dark hole somewhere... *Shudder* All the other lingerie that were not mine actually belonged to his neighbor. He used a long stick to steal them from her balcony. What a pervert! Why he steals lingerie? Still remains a mystery...

The Mystery of My Stolen Lingerie

I've been meaning to write a blog for ages but never really got down to it till today. What happened to me for the past 2 months plus is really too weird (refer to the title of my blog) not to share with others so here I am blogging away hoping to sound like a pro :p

Well, it all started on one fine Sunday morning as I was preparing to go to church. I felt like wearing new lingerie that day. ( I bought 2 new sets recently) I went to my "open" cupboard (the doors have fallen apart, Lol) and lo and behold to my disbelief my new lingerie was missing! I rubbed my eyes thinking I must still be dreaming or something and opened my eyes wider but still no lingerie. Puzzled, I searched everywhere else inside the cupboard thinking it must have fallen off the hanger or something but to no avail. So I alerted my parents and the look on both of their faces were priceless after I related the incident to them.

On the way to church we were trying to solve the mystery and finally concluded that one of my parents' students (they give home tuition) must have sneaked to my room (I usually leave it unlocked) and stole them. But who would do such a thing? A pervert? I suspected a girl student because the stolen lingerie was brand new. I thought maybe she liked my lingerie so much because I do happen to have very good taste. Ha ha. Daddy dearest then changed the lock on my door and from that day onwards (16 July 2008 to be exact) my room door has been kept locked.

The very next day, my dad was trying to fix his China satellite dish in time for the very much anticipated 080808 Olympics when he found 1 bra of my missing bras' and 2 pieces of my underwear. (also new which I didn't realise was missing too) Have you guessed where that "weirdo" threw my stolen lingerie? Yup, on my roof top. Talk about weird. I figured he or she must have asked to go to the toilet on false pretense then went to my room to steal my lingerie, hid it in the toilet (there is a window right above the toilet seat) and the stolen lingerie must have fell out in the process because they were still 1 bra and 2 underwears unaccounted for. Oh, I forgot to mention that that person also got away with my new yellow bikini (specially bought from KK) which I was going to wear on the next weekend. How annoying.

Anyway, weeks went by without any more developments and the "case" was left unsolved. I was still grieving over my losses but oh well, no use crying over spilled milk right? Wrong. Just 2 weeks ago, the lingerie stealer striked again and this time my whole collection of new underwear (10 to 15 pieces) were ravished despite my door being locked. Also missing were my cheongsam which was custom made for my sister's wedding and a lacy top. Only God knows how this desperado got into my room. I was again at a loss for words and really really upset :(

On the 19th of September, God answered my prayer. My aunt caught one of my mum's student waltzing out of my parents' room. He apparently went inside to look for soap as he usually baths before going to school after his tuition on Friday mornings. He became the prime suspect but denied when confronted. In his own words, "Why would I wanna steal girls' lingerie?" My dad then asked his dad to look on top of their roof top as he might have threw them out like the first time in my house and guess what? BINGO. The mum then offered to wash all of the stolen goods and return them to me. Finally I thought. At least the case is solved.

Yesterday when I went home during lunch time my mum asked me to go through the returned goods. I did. NONE OF THEM WERE MINE. There were about 10 bras' and 15 underwears. He must have stolen them from someone else or from around his neighborhood. When confronted why he said that he feels that it's very exciting to steal girls' lingerie. And he told my mum he threw away my beautiful cheongsam. WTF. Talk about living in a perverted world. Unbelievable? Believe it!
