Behind Closed Door

Posted by slowcatchupkuan On October - 18 - 2007 4 Comments


Behind every successful man is an equally patient and supporting woman. I’m not relatively close to being an expert on this but i totally get it.

think
Pretend to be a hard thinker

It doesn’t mean that you have to wait on our man or hold on to every single word he says. It doesn’t mean he could party all night or work 24 hours a day without time for you. Or does it means that you could demand his all his attention and time. It simply means, understanding his and your own needs and tolerance from both parties.

Relationships are of utter complexity. There is no way you can take, take and take without giving up some. Just think of it as a partnership. It’s effort from both partners that makes a team which lead to a successful business… in this case relationship.

It’s not a bad thing that he has his own bunch of crappy friends which he hangs out with once in a while. It comes with the package. What is a guy without his pigdog friends? After all, it’s where he get his humour and character from, that you fell for initially. I don’t mind if he went partying without me sometimes coz he have his own life and i have mine… well actually i don’t have a life… but it doesn’t mean he should join me and stay home. *My gosh! He’ll be bored, i’ll be bored, his friends will be furious!

Ok, he gets addicted to computer games or watever and ignores you. He goes to bookshops and give more attention to the fringgin books then on gorgeous you. Who cares! After that you can drag him go shopping with his money, watch your fav chick movies, eat at some posh restaurant etcetcetc. Remember give and take give and take! You can’t always have your own way. You can’t always do only the things you like. *I’d feel guilty… won’t you??

He likes action thrillers, you like romantic movies. He likes chicken floss donut, you think it’s gross. He likes that hideous looking carpet, you like the brown rug. Isn’t that great? Diversity is what makes the relationship exciting. *If he conforms to whatever you like, what is he but a puppet or a spineless piece of nothing? Let him have his chicken floss donut and you get you brown rug.

Him and his long hours at work. It’s his career for god sake. Let him work when he got to. No sane person would want to slave on his job 24 hours each day unless if he got to. Tell me where to get a job where you could leave 5pm sharp everyday. I’ll start work immediately. I mean i do hate it when he work long hours or sometimes on weekends but hey it’s not like it’s his choice. *As long as it’s not everyday not every weekend, is ok right? In the end who’s gonna benefit from his career? Both him and you.
.
.
.

It never fails to amaze me how some people could be so stuck in his/her own world. How many jobs and friends could he/she lose for you? Think about that.

Learn How To Swim

Posted by slowcatchupkuan On October - 17 - 2007 0 Comment

My google search for keywords “Learn How To Swim” returned a wikiHow on “How To Safely Swim With Piranhas“. CLICK HERE.

Who in the right mind would want to swim with a school of flesh eating fishes? Apparently people in Amazon do.

Eventhough there’s no piranhas here in Malaysia (is there?), it doesn’t hurt to broaden the mind on the matter. Here is moi’s summarized version:-

STEPS TO SURVIVE FROM PIRANHAS

1) Know where piranhas live.
Piranhas are freshwater fish, live only in South America and hates cold water.

2) Avoid desperate piranhas.
Piranhas normally are no danger to human but they get desperate during dry season. So don’t play play in the water when water levels drop.

3) Stay away from ponds or anything that resembles a lagoon.
Piranhas are good at high jump and karate kick bite. Peek at your own risk!

4) Wait until night to enter the water.
Piranhas hunt by day and sleep by night like humans. But beware of other strange carnivorous creatures in the water at night. Oh boy…

5) Stay out of the water if you have an open, bleeding cut.
Piranhas are like Jaws.

6) Avoid making a fuss.
Piranhas also are like men. Nag and be killed.

7) Create a diversion.
Bring some meat or carcass to feed them. It will run out in only few minutes. When all else failed, throw your partner in and save yourself.

Hmmm… maybe these fishes can help me get rid of some excess cholesterol… i wonder…

What I’ve Been Up To Lately

Posted by slowcatchupkuan On October - 17 - 2007 0 Comment


Being an all-time typical city girl, i heaven forbids can’t ride a bicycle, climb a tree or swim even if there were bunch of snarling dogs or starving piranhas at my tail.

I also can’t recognize streets and roads…. can’t remember landmarks… so that means that i can’t really drive… Uhm… yeah and that means my being-a-city-girl-excuse is just a crappy baloney excuse for not being able to multitask. Laugh all you want, i don’t care *haha watever.

Stop it already…geez!

Anyway, in my desperate search for a fool-proof sutra to loose all the excess baggage i call F.A.T (Figure Attacking Tyrant) which is in the danger of transforming my used-to-be medium-size waist into a full blown tree trunk, i finally willingly explored the art of swimming. Very exaggerating i know but fighting F.A.T is a really big deal to me to make up for all the orgasm inducing food i’d been consuming. *blame it on EatAllYouCanShung! Basically this F.A.T program is so that i can continue to munch on heavenly food … and coz lately i’d been having all kinda old-people-aches and i need more exercise *wakaka

I forced the culprit to teach me swim. Fortunately the pool at his condo’s vicinity is often occupied mostly by kids so no adults could point at me and laugh… err…only children could point at me and laugh… -_-”

Little did i know the hero who was suppose to teach me to swim like a fish, can’t even paddle like a dog too well! *i’m not laughing at you dear. i think its cute hahahaha. We ended up playing a fool in the pool where BlurryHunniee pretended to be Spiderman, we pretended to synchronize swim and all of us had underwater running competition.

In the end i’ve got to give credit to EatAllYouCanShung coz he got the hang of it without any help after 2 trips to the pool. BlurryHunniee will continue to do theater in the water. As for me, i am still fighting the pool current like a drowning frog. Maybe 2 more trips will earn me a blue ribbon for dog paddling?

I Went To J.Co Donuts & Coffee

Posted by slowcatchupkuan On October - 15 - 2007 2 Comments

not because everyone is going and definitely not because i am that kiasu so that i’ve gotta have what everyone else is having. I went there coz i love donuts. Good reason enough?

So here goes a short one.

I went there *duh! Saw the huge outlet’s J.Co‘s sign. Said to myself ‘Yay! Finally can try new donuts since Big Apple was..err… so-so only’. Walked in.

jcosign
J.Co

Fuck! Why so many kiasu people again?? Fortunately, the shop was not as warm as the Big Apple so i didn’t perspire like a hot pig baking in the sun. The outlet was exactly the same concept as the Big Apple except that J.Co has better design.

jcooutlet
Not-kiasu me behind kiasu people

Excellent service. Friendly staff. Another thing i noticed was that they have paper boxes that fits 1, 2, or whatever number of donuts that you are purchasing. Big Apple only have boxes for 1/2 and 1 dozen pieces so if you buy less, they only provide a transparent plastic case.

Another good point is that they have something like a cafe so customers could buy some drinks and enjoy the donuts they bought indoors.

jco3flavor
BerryBlue, MissGreenT, Oreology

Gotten myself Berry Blue, Miss Green T, Oreology which cost RM2.30 each. The donut itself is fluffier than Big Apples‘. At least the toppings did not cover the taste of the donuts so i give them that. Berry Blue was kinda sweet and i didn’t really like it. Miss Green T was just plain weird and it felt like taking medicine coz the green tea flavor was way too strong. Oreology was nice which turned out to be a big surprise coz i thought it’ll be too sweet initially!

There you go. I’m done with my honest comments.

*****************

I’m in great danger of turning my blog into a food blog with all my postings about food! I thought of starting a separate blog to post about sumptuous mouth watering food so i could be on the bright path towards being a well known food critic *yeah right! but i am too lazy to maintain so many so… too bad. Just live with my rojak blog ok *wakaka.
