Today's Menu is Nasi Tomato

|

Not me this time ! Ahchik’s cooking tonight..

Oh.. & apparently tomatoes are cheap today. The indian lady downstairs was telling me.
So, it is a good day to be cooking this dish.. lol

The price for chillies, sawi & kangkung has gone up for the past 5 days, I was told.
Well, I’m not really a marketing person, so it doesn’t really make a big difference.
We don’t usually borong anyway.

The rice was a little wetish.. salah sukat air, I think.
But the chicken was delicious.

Here it is.. something to share.





'The Mirror'

| Friday, November 7, 2008

Seriously, I sometimes wonder, who has invented this thing called
“the mirror”.

This is an item which should be thrown out of every household.
It would save us a lot of precious time.
The amount of time one spend in front of the mirror is enormous!
Each girl or vain male, would spend at least 15 minutes inspecting themselves in front of the mirror in the bathroom.
Looking thoroughly at each vein, blemish, panau, teeth, their hair before washing, tons of imaginary fats & blah blah blah...

Another 1/2 hour will be spent looking at themselves while searching for the best outfit.

Further to that, another 1/2 hour is spent poking at all the zits on their faces.. in which after, the makeup session begins.
Mind you, guys do makeup nowadays..
That of course would take God knows how long!

A final 5 minutes (at the very least), looking at oneself on a full length mirror, from head to toe.. to see if everything matches!

And if there isn’t a full length mirror available, more time would be spent trying to climb up a stool or anything high -
in which is to see the reflection of the bottom half of oneself. Then climbing down in a very quick motion to capture the top part as well.
And very swiftly, make a mental visualization combining both reflections (the top & bottom) one just saw.

And if one is still unsatisfied with how he/she looked, the same procedure would be repeated until satisfaction is obtained !!

The 'Am I Fat' Syndrome

|

Am I fat?!

Do you ask yourself that, all of the time?

Honestly, I used to..

Once upon a time, staying slim used to be one of my mission. But not any longer.

First & foremost, it is so bloody tiresome to look into the mirror every morning to inspect every inch of what you think is your fats.

In which is not.

Then on to the weighing machine I would heave myself.. carefully. So carefully, treading only on the sides of it. Trying not to step right in the middle.. Hoping that by doing so, I would weigh a couple of pounds lighter... !

Would I? For God’s sake.. why the hell did I do that for? I just can’t recall.
I curse myself for being silly enough to do just that.

It’s all in our imaginary system.
Just learn to love and live with it.

'Hard to Please'

|

Sometimes, life sucks.

You do something, thinking quietly to yourself - ‘I’d better do it the way it has always been done. That’ll be safe’.

Outcome:
‘Why the hell do you always do things the same way? Can’t you be a little more creative?’

Then you do something else, thinking quietly again to yourself - ‘This time, I think it’ll be better to do it another way.. that will prove I’m creative enough.’

Outcome:
‘Why the hell do you always try to do something funny? Can’t you keep it simple - like the way you always do it?’


Well, what else can I say... 'People are hard to please..'

'Babe'

|

What is the gist of calling someone:


'Babe'...........?

At first, it simply feels funny calling someone 'Babe' as it so reminds me of "Babe" the 1995 feature length Australian movie. It's like calling someone 'Hey Pig'..... it somehow refers to 'Babe' the little adorable pig.
But as time goes by, more people are used to being addressed as 'Babe', and none seemed to mind at all.

So I thought to myself, what the heck !

Thanks 'Babe' for dropping by !

=)
