what have i learnt today

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

i’ve learnt that i’m an attention junkie.. i ‘like’ getting noticed even though i’m don’t notice i’m being noticed…

i’ve learnt that my office is breeding penguins, cause i can’t seem to get the right temperature so i don’t freeze over

i’ve learnt that planning to host a bunch of foreigners can be quite stressful, especially when they don’t know directions and ways around town…

i’ve learnt that being lazy is a choice.. and i’m making that choice now.. (i love being lazy)

aloneness is bliss

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

When you are alone you are not alone, you are simply lonely - and there is a tremendous difference between loneliness and aloneness. When you are lonely you are thinking of the other, you are missing the other.

Loneliness is a negative state. You are feeling that it would have been better if the other were there - your friend, your wife, your mother, your beloved, your husband. It would have been good if the other were there, but the other is not. Loneliness is absence of the other.

Aloneness is the presence of oneself. Aloneness is very positive. It is a presence, overflowing presence. You are so full of presence that you can fill the whole universe with your presence and there is no need for anybody.

- Osho The Discipline of Transcendence, Volume 1 Chapter 2

Commentary:

When there is no "significant other" in our lives we can either be lonely, or enjoy the freedom that solitude brings. When we find no support among others for our deeply felt truths, we can either feel isolated and bitter, or celebrate the fact that our vision is strong enough even to survive the powerful human need for the approval of family, friends or colleagues.

If you are facing such a situation now, be aware of how you are choosing to view your "aloneness" and take responsibility for the choice you have made.

The humble figure in this card glows with a light that emanates from within. One of Gautam Buddha’s most significant contributions to the spiritual life of humankind was to insist to his disciples, "Be a light unto yourself." Ultimately, each of us must develop within ourselves the capacity to make our way through the darkness without any companions, maps or guide.

pre-requisite to being popular

Monday, March 26th, 2007

apparently you have to be two things… one isn’t enough…

1)  you’re from limkokwing…

2)  you’re from smk du/dj/ttdi/some international school…

if i knew that this was the pre-requisite to being popular, i would have dressed smarter, smiled more, practice my dance moves, slimmed down and make my princess wave smoother.. cool

as i walked into one of the local clubs in my area, i bump into some of the usual lot and then some.. and needless to say got the usual hellos’ and muah-muah’s

and then i realised that the slightly more livelier bunch had the pre-requisites above.. and right there in the group was where i stood, looking underdressed and understated.. didn’t need to stand out like a sore thumb, or in this case, shine like the rest of them..

as i tried to remember their names, as i did with their faces, being the nobody i was in school didn’t matter as i was recognised anyways.. apparently, i stood out in school, one of those gals that got second glances, despite my gawky features and geeky glasses nerd still am, in fact..

really now…. hmmmmm thinking

i once told someone that i don’t go to clubs to be recognised and i give a flying fuck who’s there either.. 

on a regular nite, i no longer bother to call the people to go out, and just roam around town, have my drink and bump into some people i know..

and its become a superficial routine..

with a superficial catitude….

just lost two ports… bar flams has closed down, and earth has been ‘revamped’..

light reading before bed: A Guide for Men; wot women wish you knew

Monday, March 19th, 2007

Link: digress & obsess 2. something i picked up from cheri’s blog. knowing her, she would hav wrote it herself.. this is just priceless ;)

What Women Are Really Thinking About But Won’t Tell Men:

1. I can’t stress this enough, just because we’re moaning does NOT mean you’re doing a good job. Please don’t get upset if we decide to help you out either. There’s no shame in your game if you don’t know exactly how to please us.

2. Intercourse and oral are fabulous and are very much preferred methods of sexual interaction but if you’re going to use your hands PLEASE be sure you know what you’re doing. If you don’t know what you’re doing, ask. Flailing around aimlessly does not get the job done. Oh, and please cut your nails.

3. There’s a difference between being assertive and being an asshole. Your dick isn’t made of gold, buddy. Get over yourself. If you’re a jerk we WILL seek sexual gratification elsewhere.

4. We hate games and those who play them as much as you do. If we’re playing games it’s because:

A) we have no idea what your feelings are towards us because you haven’t let us know yet or

B) you’re playing games too.

It’s usually the latter.

5. Don’t player hate. If you can screw some chick you met at a bar and the last time you ever speak to her is the morning after, then we are entitled to do the same. The double-standard is bullshit. We crave sex just as much as the next guy.

6. Like you, we also have multiple prospects in mind at all times (unless we’re in a serious relationship, then it’s limited to just you).

7. Just because I hooked up with your friend (or more than one person that you know of) does NOT mean you have a chance. Wanna get laid? Crawl up a chicken’s ass and wait.

8. There is nothing hotter in the world than a guy who smells good (too much of a good thing is no longer a good thing, though). Case closed.

9. Don’t get mad when you buy us a drink and we don’t talk to you all night, give you our phone numbers, or go home with you. If we really like you, no alcohol is necessary (although it is by no means discouraged). If you think by buying us a drink it automatically means you get some, you’ve got another thing coming.

10. Women are indecisive creatures because we actually think things through and take other people into consideration. Accept it. Make a decision and if we don’t like it, we’ll let you know. Don’t make us pick. We hate it.

11. Our boobs are God’s gift to you but please remember that they are attached to our bodies. How would you like it if we twisted your balls?

12. The number one thing that makes you fuckable to ALMOST every female on this planet: playing the guitar. It’s just a fact. This does not mean that if you can play a song on a guitar that you are automatically entitled to some poonany.

13. Extreme jealousy is the ultimate turn off. We like it when you get upset that a good-looking guy talks to us. What we don’t like is you trying to control us. We don’t have to tell you where we are 24/7 and if we want to go out clubbing without you, we will. Suck it up.

14. The more you remind us that you think we’re beautiful and that you love us, the happier we are. The happier we are, the less bitching we do. The less bitching we do, the happier you are. Get it? Don’t be a love-sick puppy though. Telling us we’re beautiful all day everyday is nice but it seems less genuine. Try and surprise us.

15. We kiss. We tell. If your dick is small or you’re bad in bed, we never talk to you again. Then, we tell everyone we know so they don’t have the misfortune of finding out for themselves. Be careful who you fuck over. As you know, girls talk…a lot…about EVERYTHING.

16. If you haven’t checked out our boobs, legs, or asses within 15 minutes of us having started our converstation then we’ll assume you’re gay and flirt with your friends. This does not mean you are entitled to any touching nor does it mean that you can stare at our breasts nonstop.

17. Hair anywhere besides your head, face, arms, and legs is not hot. Minimal chest hair is fine. Back hair is disgusting. If you’re a hairy dude, don’t expect to get much play. If you refuse to shave your face upon request then don’t get mad if we don’t shave our legs. Karma is a bitch.

18. If you have a strand of hair longer than ours, chances are you’re not getting any (i.e. not every guy can pull off long hair). If we wanted a girl, we wouldn’t be talking to you.

19. If you dated one of our friends and she broke up with you, wait a minimum of 6 days before showing interest in us. If you broke up with her, it’s either 6 months or never (depending on how bad the break-up was). Unless she asks for permission, a girl usually feels like she can’t show interest in her friend’s ex without her friend being upset depite who broke up with who.

20. We are allowed to have a guy friend without being attracted to him. If you don’t like him, that’s fine but don’t you dare tell us that we can’t hang out with who we want to hang out with and expect there do be no problems. Also keep in mind that if you’re allowed to hang out with girls without us there, then we are allowed to hang out with guys without you there. It’s been said before, the double standard is bullshit.

21. If you are trying to pick up girls downtown or at a club, don’t bring along other girls. We’ll assume that you’re taken and be cautious around you the entire night.

22. We don’t like to watch you play video games. There are two kind of girls in this world: those who play video games and those who don’t. Either way, we don’t want to sit there and be spectators. Offer for us to play. You’ll be surprised how many female gamers there are. If we don’t play video games, show us.

23. If you think another girl is hot, keep it to yourself. We don’t care. Complimenting another female is fine but please don’t brag about how hot she is infront of us. If you haven’t noticed yet, we’re insecure about how we look. Don’t make it worse. If you say another girl is hot and you are with your girlfriend (or girl you like), be sure to remind her that she’s hot too.

24. The wait-three-days-before-you-call-her rule is the dumbest rule ever thought up. To us, no call = no interest. Don’t call right away because that makes you look desperate but don’t make us wait too long. If we think you’re not interested, we’ll move on.

25. We like to shop. If you decide to come shopping with us, please don’t complain. It’s annoying.

26. Foreplay is not an option. It is a prerequisite (this does not hold true for every single "session"). Seriously.

27. Putting things in our butt does not turn us on. If we want it, we’ll ask for it. Otherwise, STAY AWAY. For most of us: THIS IS AN EXIT ONLY!

28. Boxers and boxer briefs are good. Whitey tighties are NEVER ok.

29. If we are on our period or have not previously shaven, we are not having sex with you. We don’t care how horny you are (this does not hold true if you are in a serious relationship).

30. The silent treatment, one word answers, dirty looks, pursed/tightened lips, limited or no eye contact and shoulder shrugs all mean "I am mad at you". Proceed with caution because you did something very, very wrong.

31. We aren’t stupid. We can tell the second we meet you if you’re a player or not. If you’re not, don’t pretend you are because it’s really pathetic. If you are, don’t pretend you aren’t because we can tell and it usually doesn’t effect if we want to have sex with you or not. No lie.

32. We WILL claim your stuff. If it stays in our room overnight and it doesn’t leave with you in the morning, it’s ours. If we stay in your room overnight and it leaves with us in the morning, it’s ours. It’s an unwritten rule so make sure to tell us if you want it back. Why? Because if we like you, we want to keep your shirt to wear as pajamas.

33. DO NOT ask us for a blowjob unless we are dating. This is the ultimate way to make us think you are an asshole not worth talking to anymore. If we wanted to give you a blowjob, we’d be down there already. Want to know how to get a blowjob without asking? Go down on us first. Yeah…it’s like that.

34. Girls like confident guys. Keep in mind that there is a difference between being confident and being cocky. No one likes a big ego.

35. When we’re watching our t.v. show, please refrain from smartass comments. If you have anything to say, say it during the commercials. If you get Sunday night football uninterrupted, then we get Grey’s Anatomy on Thursday at 9 uninterrupted. Live with it.

36. There is nothing worse than a guy who can’t tell you’re not into him. Please don’t make us be bitches for you to finally get it. If we don’t call you, we don’t like you. If we’re constantly looking around instead of at you when we talk, we don’t like you. If we don’t laugh reasonably hard when you crack a joke, we don’t like you. If we don’t sit close to you when we get a chance to sit next to you, we don’t like you. If we spend all night making trips to the bathroom to get away from you, we don’t like you. Take the fucking hint!

37. We can argue for days. Don’t start with us. We cheat to win (i.e. bringing up something you did years ago). Just let us get what we have to say off our chest and it’s over.

38. Please brush your teeth before you meet up with us. We don’t care how hot you are and how good of a kisser you are, nasty breath is never seductive.

39. No matter how we say it, "No" means "No". If we say "No", please stop. If we like it, we’ll ask you why you stopped. If we don’t like it, we’ll just be thankful you respected us. Respect is one thing you should always show us if you care about us.

40. If you like a girl, don’t flirt with her friends. It’s a real mind fuck and that’s no fun.

41. Chivalry is dying and I’m not going to lie, women are to blame (not all of us, of course). It is by no means dead however. Help bring it back to life and be a gentleman. It doesn’t make you any less of a man. The first thing a girl is likely to tell her friends about you if she feels you’re worth her time is if you opened doors for her and pulled out her chair for her. It’s sweet. We promise, we’re not going to look at you like you’re a wierdo if you act like a gentleman. On the contrary, we get excited!

42. Just because my friend is a ho does not mean that I am one too. Yes, girls that are friends are a lot alike but don’t make that assumption.

43. Don’t try to hook up with our friends and then expect us to dig on you too. Are you retarded?

44. We can’t read minds. If you like us, tell us. Until you do, we’re just going to assume that you’re just a really big flirt.

45. NEVER, by any means unless you want to die a long and painful death, should you EVER tell a woman you love her unless you truly mean it. Trying to get a woman into bed with you under false pretenses is the lowest low anyone can ever stoop to and you WILL have problems getting laid in the future.

That’s not a threat, it’s a promise.

warning : bitchy (or more like angry) post ahead..

ok, i’ve been to the worst event ever organised.. i’ve seen my mother organised better family reunion dinners than this..

ARGHHHHH

these idiots give ppl like me a bad name~!

what ever you do, don’t ever hire Lex Production to do any of your events, especially weddings, since its their forte..

being wedding planners, i would have expected them to be sticklers for details.. u know how brides can be when things don’t go their way and how fickled they can get to satisfy both sides of the families..

name of the event : Lex Star Bride Night 2007

with all considerations below, mind you i paid rm100 to go for this event as to support my friend whois participating, and also because trey’s studio is one of the sponsors fot this event.. sadly, because of the poor management and the unsatisfactory answers that we got from the organisers, i’ve have decided to set a vendetta against them, and hope to claim back the dignity of my profession, and salvage the dignity of my best friend’s studio’s image from the association with this atrocious event..

so here are a few details which i ACTUALLY took notes to file a complain after i write this blog:

now, the details on the web (link to the site) actually said :

Event Passes (Free Seating) : RM 100, which includes
FOOD & BEVERAGES
LUCKY DRAW
VOTING BALLOT
FREE GIFTS FOR FIRST 100 GUESTS

VIP Passes (Round table seating of 10 pax) : RM1,388
8 COURSE CHINESE SET MENU
LUCKY DRAW
VOTING BALLOT
FREE GIFTS FOR 1ST 10 VIP TABLES

Attractions:
Fashion show showcasing the latest bridal gowns collection
Lucky Draw worth RM8,000
Live Performances

let’s look at how many of them were actually satisfactory and how many other things ticked me off…

(wait, wait, i’ll tell you right at the end what the organiser told us to explain for all the fuck ups)

food

we had a buffet line which had fried beehoon, sausages, pandan chicken and desert (2 trays)…

for rm100 i expected something more grand, like mixed vegetables, grilled potatoes, some meat, fish, etc… the food we had, i could hav eaten at the mamak for less than rm20..

there were another set of tables which were sold at rm1388 per table, literally translates to rm138.80 per person, and guess what they got? a frigging 8 COURSE CHINESE SET MENU

says a lot, huh, to pay that extra 38.80 per pax..

door gifts for the first 100 guest

it states that there will be free gifts for the first 100 guest.. well, we didn’t get any, nor did we see any of the total less than 200 guest that were there that night get any..

now, trey told me that they gave 300 LA flyers to be given out.. we didn’t see them

lucky draw worth rm8000

in total, it was probably only worth at the most rm4k… we had the usual packaged prices of wedding planning management fees and vouchers and etc…

and then we heard this, cash prize rm3k up for grabs… naturally someone won.. but guess what, is wasn’t rm3k in cash, the mc got it wrong (which i will comment in a while) when there is no cash prize, and i believe that its another one of those wedding packages…

latest bridal gowns collections

since when do styles 5 years ago considered latest?????? a lot of them were ugly as fuck.. jeeze..

music

now, this is a bridal search affair.. when u think of weddings, what songs do you expect to hear, especially when u see the bride walk in or gettin on the dancefloor to show of her gown / new husband?

obviously a romantic piece to get into the mood..

not enya, not new age music, and definitely not music that sounds more deserving at a funeral than it does at a wedding…

master of ceremonies

get off stage, you big oaf~! not only do you not have the right command of the language, u can’t mc for shitz too~!

he called out the wrong contestant..

he translated the contestants’ answers inaccurately and incomplete..

he was giving biased comments about the contestants..

and worst of all, he was boring and unentertaining..

at the end of the night, we all approached the organiser and mentioned a few things which we were unhappy about.. he was a little unhospitable towards us, considering that trey was one of the sponsors.. we named him only two issues (the doorgifts and the food) which he immediately brushed off and said it was the hotel’s fault.

i found this completely unacceptable, because in the first place the hotel was just the official venue, they are not co-organisers, and they do not hold these kind of duties..

he should have a) place one of his men (which many of them were standing around doing nothing) to handle the registration counter to give out doorgifts and b) he should have confirmed the damn menu instead of letting them conned us..

i am not a happy kitty, and i’m fuming~!

so we said, we’re sending him an official letter and that we are very unhappy with what has happened that night.

compensation better be good.. not just for my sake, but also for trey’s sake..

Listen - Beyonce Knowles

Dreamgirls OST

Listen,
To the song here in my heart
A melody I’ve start
But can’t complete

Listen, to the sound from deep within
It’s only beginning
To find release

Oh,
the time has come
for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own
all cause you won’t
Listen….

[Chorus]
Listen,
I am alone at a crossroads
I’m not at home, in my own home
And I tried and tried
To say whats on my mind
You should have known
Oh,
Now I’m done believin you
You don’t know what I’m feelin
I’m more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..

You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I’d thought had died
Sooo long ago

Ohh I’m free now and my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside on words
Into your arms
All cause you won’t
Listen…

[Chorus]

I don’t know where I belong
But i’ll be movin on
If you don’t….
If you won’t….

LISTEN!!!…
To the song here in my heart
A melody I’ve start
But I will complete

Oh,
Now i’m done believin you
You dont know what I’m feelin
I’m more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice, you think you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
my ownn…
