Awww....
Aid left me again - for yet another holiday! He did tell me beforehand. Though I wished he would have stayed, I didn't stop him. I didn't even sulk. However today, I got so frustrated by that fact! Actually, it started from yesterday! Tried calling him but connection was bad and we made do with lots of sms-es. Most times, he replied promptly. Sometimes it took him hours! This morning, I tried calling him but to no avail and when I could get through, he didn't answer! He claimed he had sent me 5 sms-es though.
It was getting bored at home and I was thinking if only he had been in town, we would have gone out and do whatever. Boredom led to frustrations and since I had an 'excuse' to be in a bitch fit, why not?!
I started to give him unpleasant messages and we ended up having a little tiff. It was really a small petty one. I got even more frustrated when he told me he was going to sleep via SMS! Arrgggh!!!
Tried to distract myself and while surfing the net he called and told me he was at my block and when asked what was he doing downstairs - he said he wanted to pass me the PJs that he had bought me. Of course I was surprised and went 'Awwwwww'. Went down with a spoon (cause he told me to) and there he was with a plastic bag filled with a bottle of water and a tub of Ben & Jerry. Then, he passed me a bag filled with a nice long necklace, 2-pc swimsuit (though he claimed those are PJs) and an awesome glittery gold bag.
That was indeed a sweet gesture!
Can I just go 'aaawww' again for the fact that he's tired and for the fact that he's on morning shift tomorrow or rather in a few hours time?!
Awwwwww!

Mothers' Meeting
After 4 years of being in a relationship our mothers finally met yesterday. Didn't really want them to meet earlier cause that would be so 'official' and so 'confirm'. Heh!
Since his brother is getting married next month and since we are definitely ready to take our relationship to the next level we reckoned it's definitely time for them to meet.
Of course there were butterflies in my stomach and the fact that they came hours earlier didn't make things better cause Mum was doing some orders and the house was in a super mess (as always). Luckily I had my brother-in-law and some of the rugrats helping me clearing the mess. Of course with Bibik's help too. The hall was so tidy that Aid just had to give a sarcastic comment. Chet!
So when mothers meet, they will of course talk about (heart thumping) weddings. That topic was so highly anticipated by us. They talked about being engaged, solemnisation etc etc. Will there will be a big day?
There will be INSYALLAH but not so soon. *smiles*

I Think I Am A Hoarder
Spring cleaning means cleaning up a place and throw away things which are no longer of any use right? Often it'll result a cleaner and a more spacious space right? Each time I attempt to have that, I'll fail! Be it clearing my locker when I was a student, in the office during my DP days - both mission failed! My rooms - from Simei to Pasir Ris - failed and still failing! Why so? Simply because I find it hard to throw things. There's always excuses reasons to why I 'need' to keep them. Reasons could be 'sentimental values' or 'for future use'.
I managed to catch the last half an hour of Oprah yesterday. It was about 2 ladies being compulsive hoarders. I didn't know such OCD exists and what was aired were really the extreme cases. It was quite scary. Their beds were covered with mountain high unfold clothes. A room full of 'junks' that one had forgotten that she actually had stored cans of pastas and those cans melted and absorbed the room's carpet due to heat. It was a disgusting sight! They haven't had guests for years and the youngest grandchild has not even been to his grandparents' house cause it was just too full of stuffs and simply no space! It's that bad! It took the professionals weeks to clear those mess and there were occasions where the ladies parted with those junks with emotions. I was surprised it could be that bad!
Watching that was like watching my reflection. I wanted to know more about it so I surfed the net and I think I am a hoarder indeed! Not a compulsive one but I'm getting there! Not something that I'm proud of but I have to work on-NOW!
Is your apartment cluttered with stacks of newspapers up to your chin and towers of unread magazines?.......do you have to tiptoe over Christmas wrapping paper from the 1980s, junk mail from your college days? I have clutters all over my room and yes I do have to tip-toe sometimes!
You might call yourself a "collector" ........for the psychologists who study people like you, they'd probably label you a "hoarder." I do call myself a collector sometimes!
When it comes to hoarding, one man's junk is another man's treasure. "Most of us are attached to things we inherited from our parents or grandparents, or we're attached to photographs or special items that we've bought," says Steketee. "But people with hoarding problems often become emotionally attached to items that strike the rest of us as junk, or to pieces of paper that aren't particularly interesting." I have lots of papers on the floor of my room!
Hoarders may become anxious and angry at the mere suggestion of getting rid of items that they've held onto for years. They often say that if they throw something away, they may need it someday when it will be impossible to retrieve. Last year Aid tried to clean my room and that was exactly how I responded to him. We even ended up arguing! Nevertheless, he managed to throw 3 bags of junks! Chet!
So they collect scraps of paper with shopping lists from years ago. They may hold on to old clothing, extra furniture, used envelopes, clothing price tags, soda cans, string....I have receipts which has lost its prints - keeping it cause of the dates. I do have old clothings. Not much but I do have it and I do keep used envelopes and strings!
...hoarders often claim that it isn't a problem at all. At the same time, they are often embarrassed to have visitors to their home. I didn't think keeping things with 'values' could be a problem. Though I'm not that embarrassed, I stopped having friends hanging out in my room!
.... people having difficulty with decision making, procrastination, and staying on task long enough to organize their surroundings. "Try to give hoarders an assignment to throw something out, and they won't do it....I've blogged about my room more than once so yeah I do take forever to organise my surroundings and I hate throwing things!
In most cases, hoarders rarely look at the possessions they've saved....Nevertheless, they feel some sense of security knowing that these items are there "just in case." That's so true - I don't look and as mentioned I keep my 'junks' for 'future use'.
...people who have refused to part with old sales slips "because they represent a day in their lives, even though they have no idea what they bought. Somehow, the fact that it has a date on it, and that it belonged to them, it becomes important." I mentioned that already didn't I?
Need I say more?! I'm freaking out already!!!

Lazy Bug
I've been hit by the Lazy bug! I've got so many things to blog about - from money issues to marriage woes. From feeling restless to feeling excited but I just do not know how to start or even which to blog about first.
The brain refuses to work. It's hard to put these thoughts of mine into words.
So, till whenever.....

Tiger Balm And A Coin
The insomnia is getting worse! I sleep less than 4 hours now and the sleeping time has been dragged till 6 am and sometimes even 9 am. It's bad. Really bad because no matter what, I'll be awake by noon or probably an hour after that. Not a choice but that's how the body works.
Lack of sleep equals to migraine, mood swings and feeling sleepy during the day. I try not to take naps cause I'd be awake after an hour or so and be wide awake while everyone is sleeping. I seriously am done with tossing and turning.
I got the flu bug 2 days ago and took medication which cause one to feel drowsy. There I was lying on my bed, eyes barely opened tried to sleep but couldn't! Do you have any idea how frustrating can that be?! You feel sleepy but you just can't sleep! I felt asleep somehow and woke at 430am! Slept again and woke up at 530am! Slept again and same thing happened an hour later! I am not exaggerating here. It's that sickening!
As mentioned I got the flu bug and my body especially my neck ache. The perpetual migraine attack makes it even worst. How I wish the Makcik Urut is here but thank GOD Bibik came today and I got her to kerik for me. She grabbed the tiger balm and a fifty cents coin and spent more than an hour on my back. If you guys have not tried this before, you should. I feel great each time after I'm being kerik-ed.
I feel slightly better now. I just hope I'll be able to have a good sleep tonight. Just let me sleep for six hours without any interruptions please!
In the meantime, check out the picture below. This is how my back looks like at the moment.
No baring of my back for a week but it's all worth it cause the balm and the coin really came to my rescue!

My Packed Weekend
On Friday, I went for that interview which by the way I think went bad since I haven't heard from them. Back to highlighting the newspapers I guess. Heh!
In the evening Aid and I went to Expo, walked around and headed home since he's on morning shift and I was rushing home to watch TV.
Saturday was the birthday of a good friend of mine, Yanto's daughter. Aid and I had to rush cause we had to do something (which left me really excited - even till now actually!), buy present and try to be at the chalet in time for the cake cutting session.
We managed to be at the chalet on time and witnessed the birthday girl cried cause she got scared with all the singing! Hah!Sunday was my niece, Aisyah's 15th birthday. Went there without Aid, rushed home and got ready to meet Aid to watch a play. A play which we went to support Nani. I got so excited when I saw her act! Excited like a mother watched her child in a school play! Hah!
It was a good play and we got the best uncomfortable seats. By that I mean, great view but the seats were just uncomfortable literally. Oh! I think Hot Mama looked really hot that night and apparently she did her own make up!

NervousI went for an interview on Monday and on the way there, I was trying to memorise what Mas had told me! Hahaha!
Trying to memorise something when you're nervous can't work at all! I tried distracting myself by doing the word puzzles and was nervous again when I was at Raffles Place Station. One more stop and it'd be my interview venue and the last time I had an interview was 4 years ago and the fact that I was going for a totally different position does not make it any better.
I hate feeling nervous cause when I'm nervous, I feel like poo-ing so I tried to calm myself down in my own ways.
There I was on level 12, trying to locate the recruitment agency. Found a door with the company's name and thought that was it so I went to knock it before reaching the knob just to find out that, that's the backdoor! Muahahahaha!
Few steps up and there was the main entrance and to be honest, I've never been to a recruitment agency as 'formal' as that. I was greeted by the receptionist and brought to a meeting room. I started feeling nervous again cause I started to imagine the interview to be a 'stressful' one. Filled in the application form and speaking of the form, one question on it was 'What is your objective of the organisation you work with?' What the hell! It's not even my organisation why the hell should I have any goals towards that! I really had no idea what to write there. Thanks to technology, I sms-ed Mas, Radia and Nani. A friend in need is a friend indeed right? I had all 3 replied immediately! Hah!
Anyways, the interview lasted more than an hour and everything seemed positive. Got another call from the consultant and she had arranged another interview for me tomorrow. I've been nervous since her call at 4pm just now. How can I not be cause apparently I'll be interviewed by a group of people.
Wish me luck people and I will try to poo as much as I can before the interview tomorrow!

Ten Years Have Passed
Ten years have passed since the day you left,
When I was just turning seventeen
That's the day of my life I wish I didn't have
How could you leave me when I was still in my teens?
Ten years have passed and I'm still missing you
You were never forgotten and I always think of you
I miss your smile, I miss your eyes, I miss the whole you
How could you leave me? I'm terribly missing you!
Ten years have passed and I've been quite good
Not an angel with zero mistakes but I still go by the book
Finished school, worked and all I need now is to learn how to cook
How could you leave me when you had not been around long enough to just lean back and look?
Ten years have passed and you've got sixteen grandchildren
The youngest is eight, the eldest in Melbourne
What's sad is you won't be able to see my children
How could you leave me? I'm crying and my eyes feel burnt!
Ten years have passed, I still cry to sleep
When I have the sudden rush to have your presence in the crib,
Do you feel what I feel or hear me cry?
How could you leave me when I haven't had enough of you in my life?
Ten years have passed,
I'm still wishing you're still alive...

Will's Quote
Apparently it was Will Smith's first time on Ellen today (well not really today since Ch 5 is showing super belated foreign talk shows) and he said this: 'When people stop telling you things, that's when people stop caring about you.'
Coincidentally I just said that to someone few days back. In fact I say that to that particular someone all the time and I must say I can't agree more with that - When I bother to voice out, there's still hope - lots of hope to be exact and when I stop, it simply means I don't give a shit anymore.
By then, it's too late. Way too late!

Friday Night With The Girls
We made it - just like last year and we hope to do this every year till whenever. Perhaps, the next few years with our partners or even babies in the long run. That's a nice thought! *smiles*
Coincidentally it was around the same time (fyi Mak Nenek, last year's was also in July! Bluek!). This year's venue was Clark Quaye for both dinner and clubbing. Theme for the gift was something that is wearable.
Initial plan was to party at Pump Room but the queue was ridiculously long. Irin and I checked out Arena's queue which was not even there and that was where we ended up. That was also where I became the 'youngest' and please my hair is not the reason okay girls. I just look young! Muakhakhakhkahkha!
Anyways, here are some pictures for viewing pleasure or shall I introduce you guys to The Sexy Naughty & Bitchy yang Sudah Naik Badan! Hahaha!
