The Aging Process

A bit premature to discuss but nevertheless it looms in our future,
how will we be when we are old and helpless to help ourselves?
Will we be brave enough to face it? When wrinkles really show and no amount of SKII helps
and when white hairs are to much to cover with the occassional visit to the salon?
Will we be able to grow old gracefully?
But as long as we are together, I'm brave enough to face anything, all I need is YOU!

Lee's wedding @ the Rennaissance

And so the wedding season has decended upon us, and peeps are getting married left, right and centre. Which equals lots of unnecessary eating for me and Vicky.
We were at the Cineleisure @ the curve on Saturday morning to catch Casino Royale which was excellent! kick-ass I say, and well done to Daniel Craig for re-defining James Bond! After the movie we were walking around the bazaar and I just had to get something, ended up with a leopard print hairband and a new black pashmina. Thanks baby for over-indulging me always! ..plus some career wear, a magazine and a new book which I am reading feverishly right now, actually I really am running a fever! Too much wine and too little sleep last night!

So back to the weddings, we attended 2 yesterday itself, first was a malay kenduri and the second a chinese wedding @ the renaissance. The pics collage are right on top.

My Mom Came A Visit

My mom came a visit a few days ago and she just went home today.
Had to coz my Dad is all alone at home.
I'm really thankful that Niki gets to spend a few solid days with my mom.
Obviously there was an unfamiliarity there in the beginning since they really didn't see much of each other except but after a bit of time together Niki really got on well with her, but being Niki, she also bullied my mom quite a bit, and grannies do have a tendency to "over-indulge" if you know what I mean. Niki got away with eating snacks and cookies at all hours of the day, not to mention drinking juices instead of milk most times.
As for me and Vicky, we got to eat at home :-) since my mom cooked, heeheehee!
But it really warms me to see them together, afterall my mom lives so 2 states away! And it's really difficult to get together.
Can't wait to head back to my kampung for Christmas.

DOA Movie Trailer

DOA Movie Trailer, the trailer does market itself well!

DOA

Have you seen this movie?
I saw it last night before going to bed with Niki & Vicky, it was really
cheesy, corny and truly, truly lame!
But its only saving grace is the CGI and of course Holly Valance!
Its based on a game so you can really blame the director (Corey Yuen) can you nor the cast!
The movie's tagline is .. They have the looks ... That Kills! (hahahaha! toldcha it was corny)
But fun la, Niki likes it too, and stayed up way pass her bedtime to watch!

A Dinner and A Date




Teeheehee.. still reeling from yesterday night, which was wonderful, we went for an awards dinner in the ultra posh KL Convention Centre. I was wearing my new slinky black dress with my gold blinged kitten heels with a cute beaded pochette and Vicky was so gorgeous in his Armani pinstripped suit. It was a frou-frou affair so we had to play dress up but it was so much fun, photos later.. Felt like the Academy coz there was lots of media there snapping away.

We wined and we dined the night away. Vicky also got to shake hands with Datuk Rafidah Aziz and she even obliged a photo, which was really nice of her.

Afterwards we went to the new revamped Uncle Chilli's and I must say I'm really impressed with the new look, ultra glam! It's warm and inviting but sexy at the same time. Truly va-va-voom.

I had my apple martinis (afterall Casino Royale is currently playing in the plex) and Vicky who was coming down with cold had shots after shots of remy, and we danced the night away. It's been tooo long since we went on a date and it was a really nice night. We felt like a couple of kids, it was nice to feel young & carefree again sometimes.


Hhhhmmmmm... wonderful xoxo

Chinese Sub-species

Today, in Malaysia, there is no longer just the Chinese. Along the way, the Chinese people divided beyond dialects and religious faith.
We now have denomination within the Chinese.
The major three groups are Regular, Cina, and Ah Beng.
The Regular Group is the minority, making up less than 20% of the Chinese people.
This group has the following characteristics:
1. Speaks English as the first language.
2. Thinks the world owes them a living.
3. Uses the Internet more than the other two groups combined.4
4. Loves the iPod and/or IKEA.
5. Watches one or more of the following TV series: Sex and the City", "Friends","The OC", "CSI", "One Tree Hill", etc...
6. Thinks that the Regular group is way larger than it is and makes fun of the other groups, particularly the Ah Beng group. Why? Because it's fun.
Recent studies have also shown that there is a growing splinter group within the Regular group known as the CPWTTANC group.
(CPWTTANC is short for Chinese People Who Think They Are Not Chinese.)
This growing subgroup are considered elitist by some and are found making statements like "I wish I were in the U.S."
or "This never happened when I was studying in Australia."
They also tend to speak with an unidentifiable accent.
The women may also prefer to date white men from foreign countries with the excuse that local men just "don't understand me" and have the secret desire to be taken away to the U.S. to live in a sitcom.
The second Chinese group, The Cina Group make up approximately 55% of the Chinese community. (Cina is derived from the Malay word Cina which means Chinese and is pronounced "chee-na". And you will have to say it in a condescending tone for effect.)
This group is considered mainstream and contribute to the numbers that reflect development in the country. They are the masses in context of the Chinese community.
In other words, if you want to sell something to the masses of Chinese people, the Cina is it.
The Cina are identified by the following traits:
1. Speaks Mandarin or Cantonese as the first language.
2. Generally quiet, self-effacing, and obliging but are actually shrewd and calculative.
3. Sees Taiwan as the place to be.
4. More likely to forward chain email to people in their address book.
5. Goes to Halo Cafe or Wow Wow Cafe BY CHOICE at least three times a year.
6. Has Astro hardwired to Wah Lai Toi.
7. Usually good in mahjong or chor tai ti, and plays it almost everyday.
8. Knows all the dim sum dishes by name.
9. Seventy percent of lighting at home generated by flourescent lights.
The last group are known as the Ah Bengs . This term was probably made up by the Regulars in the early 80s during the cultural invasion that saw the mass import of music and movies from countries like Hong Kong, Taiwan, and to some extent, Japan. This phenomenon saw the more open-minded and runaway members of the Cina group defect into Ah Bengs and its feminine equivalent, Ah Lian.
They just took their Alan Tam and Anita Mui a little too seriously.Perhaps the most made-fun-of group not only by its own Chinese people but by people of other races, the Ah Bengs are often seen as people living on the edge and have more flamboyant tastes.
One may identify The Ah Beng Group by these tell-tale signs:
1. Built-in visual self-defense mechanism that keeps people away from them.
2. Have enough amplifiers in their one car to power speakers for six cars.
3. Hair not in their original colour.
4. Volume of voice is automatically five decibels higher than everyone else.
5. Excessive use of the phrase "Kan Ni Na Bu Ciao Chee Bai". (Although, to be fair, some members of the Regular group have been reported to use the phrase on a daily basis as well.)
6. Once a fan of one of the following groups: Vengaboys, Dr Bombay, Aqua, or the Cheeky Girls.
7. Their Proton car does not look like a Proton car due to modifications.
8. For the Ah Lians, have at least one bag fashioned after a furry animal complete with the head.
So, which group am I in?

Bimbotic-ness

Not too long ago, I asked Vicky whether he minded that I was soooo overtly bimbotic, I mean I can be reallllllyyy shallow. It's not because of my upbringing or my education (for God sake I am afterall a CIM grad!) Maybe it's because all my life I've been pretty serious , in school especially I was reading economics (I had to!!!) and micro-economics, and all that shizz for CIM. Well I'm really going off the plot here, so like I was saying I onced asked Vicky if he minded that I am a a quasi-bimbo who spends hours pouring over fashion mags, scrutinizing the latest Fall fashion, the latest peep toe pumps from Nine West or chunky blings, and he said that he did not! And that he loved me the way I was, and that's why he loves me. Odd eh, since I wanted my other half to be intellectual and intelligent, and I got exactly what i wished for, a case of opposites attract? I think so!
So while my peers are talking about the latest political issues and the economy, I am here surfing and looking at pretty dresses from Forever 21!

Of Fake Watches


Apart from shoes and handbags I have a weakness for watches too,
Over lunch today I got myself a Cartier knock off,
A faux Tank Louis Cartier to be exact, obviously it's not the real deal but for RM9.90 ok-lar I'm satisfied, the real one would cost an arm and a foot or to be exact at least RM16,000!

Now, marvel at the beauty of imitation goods! I'm el cheapo and not afraid to admit it!
And shallow might I say of myself, to add!

Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club



KLGCC should be one of the oldest golf clubs around but I really like it,

if I were to buy a golf membership I'll buy it there, but not so logical as I live in Shah Alam right?

Anyways I like it coz of its old charm and I especially like to eat at the East Player's Lounge, dunno why! I like the country setting with chequered red table cloth and the beautiful view of the greens, really country-like, anyways I was there for work today, wished I could just lounge there like one of the tai-tais *wishful thinking*

I'm back to the office now, phew! Darn tired! Can't wait to see my Niki!! xoxox




The Road to KLIA

Vicky took a flight out of KLIA early this morning,
We woke up at 5am which is at least 2 hours earlier than usual, then drove all the way to timbuktu aka klia
I dove back alone, it was a friggin' long drive..
whose idea is it to build our intl' airport there!
Now I'm so sleepy and today is yet gonna be a long day in the office,
k-off to KLGCC now for a presentation to the tec-16 group
ciaos, sien man!

Peaceful Eating


Dear blog,

We discovered yet another makan place in KK,
The name -- The Peace
which is quite an odd name for an eatery
nonetheless being the adventurous types that we are
we went ahead and ate their one evening last week,
and again on Monday this week..

Vicky was not around coz he was a few shops away tinting his beloved pinin farrino

I had tomyam seafood with vermicelli, Nix had mashed potato,
The tomyam was spicy, hot and quite Thai-like, unforch it also gave me a tummy upset
which I think is due to the spicy-ness of it! Too authentic for me, I think I'll stick to the
localized version that they sell at the local mamak!

Here's a couple of pix of Nixie posing gila for the cam!

Hon, since you are in Hongkong now, perhaps you can get me a new canon optizoom-super hitech ver 2007? it should be pretty cheap there right?

St Nicholas Convent Alor Setar..My Alma Mater

I remembered when my dad enrolled me in Standard One in St Nicholas Convent Alor Setar, I was really scared out of my wits, I remembered myself as this really pint sized girl, and I was so very timid, I'm not even sure if I can converse in English and I couldn't even count and I can't even write my alphabets properly yet! Anyways that was back in 1982 and the school board placed me in 1 Biru. And I cried the first day, the second day I just sat quietly in my seat and I remembered that someone in my class got so scared she peed in her uniform. As for me, I got bullied by a school bully and loadged a report with my dad who in turned came by one fine day to give some lip to the kid, who in tunr did not bother me again through my first year in school. Come to think of it, I think I was so lucky she did not give moi a knuckle sandwich for ratting her out.
And nowadays kids have their Kumon and Smart Reader classes on top of speech and drama and by the time they are enrolled in Standard One their level is like Standard 4 my time! Amazing how school has evolved, I worry for my Niki already, if I don't enrol her in pre-school/kumon/helen o'grady's/smart reader etc, am I guilty of deliberately let her lag behind her peers and if I enrol her it means that I am conforming to society, and there's no ending just there, then there'll be music/dance/art etc as well. It's difficult being a mom in this day and age!
Well I will cross that bridge when I come to it. Chances are I'll cave in to the current education demands.
In the meantime I shall just daydream about the fun times as a primary school girl in SNC!

Nearly had a mini heart attack!

I nearly had a mini heart attack when I couldn't log into my blog since last evening, and this morning it prompted me to register for the beta version again! So weird I thought sure gone already my whole blog, wanted to cry but thank God, my blog is still in one piece.
Going thru the ISO Assessment audit now!!
Damn Stress!

Infinitangel


"ARGH!" Another audit tomorrow! Nothing is DONE!

Just had to get that off my chest!
I've been wanting to blog about my online nic Infinitangel for a long time now and how I coined that nic name,
Once upon a time back in 1996, I had a best friend,RG past tense as you may have noticed, and I really loved her, she was my bestest buddy and my confidant when we were together in college.

We both loved the Smashing Pumpkins, or shall I say the defunct Smashing Pumpkins and RG even has the concert tee! Like the band our friendship is no longer and while we still bump into each other it's just a hi, bye with some light courtesies exchanged, how did we get this way, well that's a long story but let's just say that our friendship was not strong enough to weather a storm. While I still miss our friendship, I no longer mourn for it like I did so many years ago. We've both moved on, for sure I have, with our lives and I hope she's happy in hers, I wish her all the best, and may she find love & trust.

For those who are just wondering, here's some intel about the Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins are a popular American alternative rock band which formed in Chicago in 1988. Although the band has seen several line-up changes, they have consisted of Billy Corgan (vocals/guitar), James Iha (guitar/vocals), D'arcy Wretzky (bass/backup vocals) and Jimmy Chamberlin (drums) for the majority of their recording career.

Considered less influenced by punk rock than many of their contemporaries, the Pumpkins have a diverse, densely layered and guitar-heavy sound, containing elements of gothic rock, heavy metal, dream pop, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, shoegazer-style production and, in later recordings, electronica. The emotional tone of frontman Billy Corgan’s songwriting ranges from angry (“Bullet with Butterfly Wings”), to dour (“Disarm”), to jubilant (“Cherub Rock”).

Having sold more than 25 million records worldwide by 2000, with approximately 18.3 million albums sold in the United States alone as of 2006, the Smashing Pumpkins were one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed bands of the 1990s, but internal fighting, drug use, and diminishing sales and cultural vitality hampered the band in their later years and led to a 2000 break-up. In April of 2006, the band officially announced that they were reuniting and recording a new album. So far, the only confirmed band members are Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin.

Their last commercial album was Mellon Collie and the Infinite sadness circa 1995-1997, about the same time as when RG & I met. And hence, I took on the nick Infinitangel since 1996.
And now you know something about me!

Keeping calm is the best way. Your general luck would be obstructed by worries from love life or social network, so tread warily to shun fruitless effort.

Wealth
Good wealth luck goes with good career luck, but not as same as the latter one. Your luck in wealth is so unstable that it would be easily affected by various elements.

Enjoy your good luck in investing, and you would find Fortunatus’s purse when being amiable in managing and cooperating.


é¾™ Dragon Born in: 1928 1940 1952 1964 1976 1988 2000

Personality
Magical, shrewd, intuitive, artistic and very lucky. Alternately, can be stubborn, irritable and impulsive. Can also be rather worldly and hard to get close to. Full of vitality, self assured, bright and master of success. Somewhat proud and quick-tempered, the Dragon personality is always attractive.
The mighty and magnificent Dragon of mythical folklore never ceases to enchant or stir the imagination. The Dragon person is magnanimous and full of vitality and strength. To him life is a blaze of colors and he is constantly on the go. Egotistical, eccentric, dogmatic, whimsical or terribly demanding and unreasonable, he is still never without a band of admirers. Proud, aristocratic and very direct, the Dragon-born establishes his ideals early in life and demands the same high standards and perfection from others that he has for himself.
The powerful Dragon is difficult to contest, at times even impossible. He tends to intimidate those who dare challenge him. An angry, spurned Dragon could be like the big bad wolf at your door. He'll huff and he'll puff until he blows your house down.
In spite of his volcano of emotions, the Dragon cannot be said to be sentimental, sensitive or very romantic. He takes love and adulation for granted: they are his just due. But while he maybe stubborn, irrational and overbearing when irked, the Dragon can forgive you the moment he gets over his outbursts. And since things are supposed to work both ways, he expects your forgiveness for his errors, too.
The Dragon likes: Festivals, Control, Wealth, Comfort, Concerts, Antique and Decadence.
The Dragon dislikes: Boredom, Cold, Dullness, Hunger, Hypocrisy and Quietness.

Your Luck In Year 2007

Overall Forecast

The Great Laksa Quest


So, back to my Laksa craving, I did manage to convince Vicky to eat Laksa with me, actually he changed his mind when he got to Treats in KK, and instead ordered a Parisien Seafood Sandwich, so I happily made my Laksa order to satisfy my craving for Laksa, and Niki ate some too, the noodle lah not the broth, that'll be asking too much since it was spicy, sour and hot! I've since come to admit to myself that noooo laksa in KL can compare to that of in Alor Setar.

Nevermind, have to make do lah and afterall I'm going back to my kampung for Christmas, can eat in Wah Tua Guan!! Can't wait!

Monday, November 06, 2006

Laksa

Only those who know me and know me well knows how obsessed over laksa I am. It's not curry laksa mind you but asam laksa but us northern kampung types prefer to just call it laksa, simple and straightforward. It's now 6pm and I would like to have laksa for dinner, can I convince Vicky to indulge in my cravings? Will see.
Now all I can think of is laksa..laksa..laksa and laksa! Will my Niki love laksa as much as I do, well I guess I would have to "train" her in laksa appreciation 101.
Ok Vicky is here gotta go!

Celebrating a Celebration

Niki's Cake The Chocolate Indulgence, now imagine the fresh white cream on top with Buttercup of PPG !

And so we officially celebrated Niki’s birthday last Saturday and everyone we invited turned up in full force and there were kiddies everywhere in fact it was raining kiddies. There was a slight drizzle as well early in the evening, but once we got the party started the skies literally cleared up and we were so thankful. The best thing was both sets of Niki’s grandparents were on hand to celebrate with us, and felt really blessed to have all our loved ones with us. We couldn’t have asked for more!

The set up was excellent, we got a white marquee tent with orange skirtings and we set up 5 round tables for our guests, the tables were lined with white table cloth and we had blue chairs. We added a special touch, with batik style wrapping paper on the table and I had a tea light in the middle. We had square tables for the buffet lines, and I insisted that the caterer used chaffing dish so it looked really presentable and we had 2 round tables for the dessert and salad bar.

Then the highlight of the evening was of course Niki’s birthday song, we got her a 4 inch high Buttercup Chocolate Indulgence cake, and Niki loved it so much that as soon as she blew out her 2 candles, her fingers dugged and she was making holes all over the cake. A bit eewww but it was sooo cute! And Niki even did a little jig once we cut the cake!

The food was also yummy! There was meehoon goreng, nasi lemak with sambaled kerang, sambaled udang, curry puffs, chicken satay, iced syrup limau, and on our end Vicky prepared his specialty bbq chicken wings which was so popular with the guests and we even had a salad bar, a dessert bar and the best was the open bar, ladies had a grand time with the bacardi limon and the guys guzzled on beers and ballantines. Safe to say everyone was pretty happy once the party got into full swing. Ammu and Vicky compiled lots of dance music and everyone was dancing even my dad!

Niki really enjoyed herself with her cousins and the best surprise of all came from Ammu, who choreographed a dance comprising of Yanu, Lei and Darsha to the beat of Dum Machale! Excellent! Sexy moves from the girls and we found out that our little girl can copy sexy moves quite easily. Aiyoh!

Pictures will be posted as soon as my dad sends me the CD from Alor Setar since he was the night’s official photographer.

As for me, I’m still sore from dancing and sleepy as heck! But I had a wonderful time planning the party and so, so happy that everyone enjoyed themselves and that the party was a hit!
