We R Malaysia...it's a musical thing

WE ‘R’ MALAYSIA – THERE IS HOPE, 
THE MUSICAL

There Is Hope, The Musical is at first, a brief travel back in time through the history of the Chinese in Malaysia. From the first and second waves of Chinese initially arriving in the 1400’s and later in the late 1800’s, the story continues to the struggle for Independence. Merdeka marks a turning point in Chinese sentiments towards Malaya. With origin initially rooted in homeland China, the post Merdeka Chinese generation are now granted citizenship, and make Malaya their new home. The 1980’s experiences unprecedented economic growth from an agricultural economy to an industrialized one. Crossing over to the second millennium, an emerging generation is born into an IT economy era. The past of hard sweat and struggles are mostly left behind and a younger and more affluent generation faces fresh challenges, different from what their forefathers encountered.

Never been

I love falling asleep listening to snores like kids and their lullabies.. Best accompanied by some jazzy bossa novas. What a relaxing night, like I'm ready to move forward. I think I am. Over the weekend, I've proven the statement of Women Can Drink, when I beat a man at drinking. Ecoba has never been this fun nor Carlberg been this tasty. A toast to Oktoberfest!

Chained Up

She was finally set free.. then got caught again, fell right into another hell hole. Stupid bitch. Taken for granted, she's signed up to be emotionally beaten by someone whom she once was. This, I call it karma. Lesson never learned. Maybe she's just self-challenging, self-abusing, preparing for the worse to come. Maybe. May it be worth while. God bless her.

One night, when we decided to drop by Movida after Craig's event at Shah's Village.

My boys' first time there, didn't like it.

Gave next table a MAGIC finger for some chap was being an absolute turn-off.

My bad. F-Off mode switched on then.

One night, when Lil'Jean invited us to some private party at Lust.

SiZZLE~SiZZLE indeed. Sweats much?

Zoo Mission

It happened over the 1-week holiday last week, I believe it was a Wednesday..

Honestly, I've lost track of my days since my alcoholism started. I even think I murdered something last night. I remember.. it's...... an ant. BULLS!

So back to my story, on that very particular day, I read off Facebook about 3-4 group of my friends who also visited the zoo, all different timing! FREAK.

Wait, back to my real story. The six of us - Clayton, Steffie, Penny, Mark, Geoff and yours truly, me, drove down the hundreds and hundreds of miles to Zoo Negara after an unsatisfying Dim Sum breakfast at 'Yuen Garden' or something.. (It's in SS2, same row as Sri Siam, at the corner)

The trip was a disappointing one. I guess the cheap thrills we enjoyed when we were toddlers simply aren't meant to thrill us anymore. Take my advice, just leave it as that. I rather comfortably be couch potato switching onto Astro Discovery Channel at home to watch the animals eating off one another with more wild actions. I could easily google 'zoo animals' to see how hippopotamus and leopard looks like, really, bet you it'll be more fascinating.

Also, the large crowd didn't help. There were more migrants than animals! I dislike crowd like that, just like I never enjoyed concerts unless if I'm given the VIP area.. I need not build interpersonal relationship by rubbing sweaty, sticky, sweaty hands with them nor to lookout for pick-pockets.

Enough. Goodbye zoo. I never liked you anyway..

Serving Karma

Serving karma. Hell fuckin yeah.
It's true when they say "do unto others what you would have them do unto you"
Just wish I could jump onto the next flight out to some secluded place and blog about this facial mask on my face or how shoes stink after a long day out or how gorgeous the man I bypassed today or how Gerald Butler love sucking my feet... no wait, I meant my toe.

Relationship for men.. Isn't it rocket science?
Fholes aside..

Oh Oh ask me how's my new job! Erm.. Better than a bowl of chilled rubbish-tasting soup.
Nah.. KIDDING lah.. Getting the hang of it. Processes are such boring routines, I kid you not. Just can't wait to get my hands on the keyboard for some concept ideas generating again. I call it my very own 'Project Shortcake'.
Now it's all pretty mundane but the satisfaction when a job's completed, BLISS. Repetition of yadda yadda, daily.

It's part and parcel of life. Suck it up. *pats self*

Cheers y'all. Counting down to Friday.. PUBLIC HOLIDAY baby!

Don't Hesitate

Sometimes you just have to go for it. – Put your uncertainty and fears aside for a second and ask yourself this: “If I try and I don’t get it right the first time, what will I have lost and what will I have gained?” The answer is: You will have lost nothing but a little bit of your time while gaining an important lesson that will help you get it right the second or third time. People rarely get it right the first time. In fact, usually the only people who ever get it right are those who continue going for it even when they’ve come up short numerous times before

Everyone can make a huge difference. – Making one person smile can change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their world. So start small and start now

Plank!

It's a trend. Fit in or fuck out. So cool.

all good until...

then I present to you our very own version, by our beloved Wallace Yeoh.

CHOONS AWARD, sounds awesome aye? No, not so chun afterall. Poorly organized with minimal branding of the main product, overshadowed by their sponsors. Free flow of Asahi and other drinks were good but they ran out really fast. The emcee was not interactive enough and..... lets just say I wouldn't bother going to the next one, that's all.

The Godly Evening

...when I first stepped into Luxy, the Hartamas GRO joint. I gotta admit that the Thai girls were hot in their sheer lingerie dress with bra and g-string underneath. Funny part was when one of the girls quietly followed M when he was leaving and got into his ride, refusing to leave for the next god-knows-how-long until he lied about returning the next day (which obviously he didn't).

Happy Birthday Godfrey! He's expecting his 3rd child this year. Congratulations!

More photos on Facebook. Cheerios.

Fly like a Bee

Under My Toes

Closing my office room door as I walk out to head home late at night after a long day of work. With an aching body I drive home to a place I call my own. Walking in, warmly greeted by my little fury love, I switch on the dim lights and aircond then place my keys on the bar then pour myself a glass of wine and play some jazzy tunes as I look out through the glass wall into the beautifully lighted city view. I'd like that someday.

I'm currently listening to Lisa Ono.

So I am leaving my current job in hope to be more challenged. Letter of resignation was tendered last week. I am thrilled, but nervous at once. Counting to the very day gives me excitement with zero expectation. Besides, having to say goodbye is the least of my liking. I don't even know how to start writing the e-mail that everyone sends on the last day of their job.. you know? That one.. I had a great time, wonderful time, blessed with beautifully inspiring people, good people. Now all the very best to the chapter I am about to close. What is there to expect now? I honestly don't know. I opt to live the moment, and I shall. Maybe I'll go pick up French then try dating a French guy. No, I don't mean the art of kissing you morons. We'll see, we'll see.

Now, have a good night dear readers.

Loves.

Going Solo

So yes, it has been two weeks since I rejoined the singlehood. Nothing to shout about, just a failed relationship we all wished it lasted, of course not everybody think so.

I did not announce it on Facebook (FB may be over-rated but I'm a FB addict. Get it over with) as many.. MANY would question and sympathize and this and that. I didn't need that to make things worse for me at that point of time. But now, I can happily announce that DARYNNE IS BACK!

I'm heartless? Yes, I would be if I had broken it up only after our anniversary.

People I thought would be jumping on him, hahah... lets just say I could read mind and body language. Sigh, she's been waiting a long time. Oh well... lucky girl!

Work's been okay. Past two weeks have been hectic, all piled up within days with very tight deadlines. Lets pull this through together!

Till my next post, hopefully soon, ADIOS!

I. AM. DONE

Love.

Supposed

There was supposed to be a Today.

It is at this very time, 12am, 3rd of May 2011.

It did not break even.

A book cannot be judged by its cover.

Memory rolls.. This is such an emotional post that would have probably wasted two minutes of your life just to feel depressed even by bit. Trust me, I'm sorry.

About time.... It's finally arrived in Malaysia!

Heartless, selfish, stupid me will regret this, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year.. I will. Only if it was that simple. It felt so right but I just had to blow it all away. The guilt could not be overcome and chose the road with a dead end sign. No one's to be blamed but me, myself and I.

I fucked up.

The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

I'm gonna kick my feet up then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand in my pants
Nobody's gon' tell me I can't

I'll be lounging on the couch just chilling in my Snuggie
Click to MTV so they can teach me how to dougie
'Cause in my castle I'm the freaking man

Oh yes, I said it, I said it
I said it 'cause I can

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything
Nothing at all, nothing at all

Tomorrow I'll wake up, do some P90X
Find a really nice girl, have some really nice sex
And she's gonna scream out
[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/bruno-mars-lyrics/the-lazy-song-lyrics.html ]
This is great
(Oh my god, this is great)

Yeah, I might mess around
And get my college degree
I bet my old man will be so proud of me
But sorry pops, you'll just have to wait

Oh yes, I said it, I said it
I said it 'cause I can

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

No, I ain't gonna comb my hair
'Cause I ain't going anywhere
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

I'll just strut in my birthday suit
And let everything hang loose
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all

Night Race Turned Mean

Last Saturday was the Energizer Night Race that everyone's been shouting about and the reason many gyms got stink up with odors for many hours because of the hardcore runners training for the 42KM run. OOO Muscle-muscle OOO... err? I was so caught up with so many things that I actually lost track of the day until two days before when someone reminded me of the run. Shake bailed on me as it was pouring in the afternoon, but luckily, Jess and Jolene was running as well.

When the sun set, the night begun.

I dragged Jolene to run with me, WITHOUT CHEATING like the others (marshals shortage) leaving the folks behind to their talks and jog.. (run, they claimed. I really don't know). You see, There have been many hate mails, comments, complaints from the runners because of the poor organizing by the organizers and the brand itself. Everybody was outraged especially when the goodie bags and medals ran out (10,000 packs were not pre-packed), not even a cert was given after a VERY VERY long queue. The emcee was being really rude shouting at everybody and they pulled down the shutter and called the security when they could not control the crowd. By then, I was already long gone hunting for drinks (*evil grins*). Google and you'll find plenty of those nasty messages and even hate sites on Facebook!

But hey! Energizer Mike F wrote an apology letter and stated that they would refund all runners just awhile ago.. Oh spare them now.. unless if you're a lawyer seeking business, brand owners seeking leverage or individuals who have nothing else better to do in life.. No need to act like terrorists even when you're unsatisfied about an issue this small. They did not kill your cat, hello?

Jocey (the organizer) written an apology note on Facebook but video clips of her misbehaving and how the security/cops treated the runners that day really did not do her any justice. Energizer was also blamed for not taking responsibility of the incident. In short, it was DISASTROUS. I feel so sorry for them and I read some ridiculous comments from people that said they threw away their Energizer batteries.. all because of this?! A bit the unnecessary right? Why dirty mother nature? But if you ask if I would join again, I might. I actually had fun myself running my first marathon. So long a proper organizer is engaged of course (regardless whether my company win the pitch or not). Oh boooy, CRISIS is NASTY.

Cheerios.
