R.I.P: Hocus up in fish heaven.

It's a sad day today. My first fighting fish that I named Hocus has passed on 29th July 2009.

It has a partner, named 'Pocus' (Hocus+Pocus - get it?), that I bought after Hocus, it was blue in color. A glorious mystic blue. But, sadly it passed too.

Soon after the passing of Pocus, I've found a replacement. I named it Pocus II.

Pocus II is a blazing red fighting fish with a tail like an enticing Spanish dancer. Fortunately, it is still with us today.

In the note of still remembering the lives of Hocus, I must state that it was a brave survivor fish. It last for a grueling 6 hours without water - dried and gasping for oxygen in a broken (accidental) fish bowl. I thought it was dead, but just as I was about to poke it, it moved (terkejut i!!).

The fish was so dry that the tip of it's long tail was tipped off (slightly), but survived.

During it's last days, I knew it's life was coming to an end, when I saw that it lost his appetite and not in it's 'fighting' usual. It's color faded too. FYI, it was marroon colored.

Suddenly, on a cold Wednesday morning, as I was about to fed my two fishies..I saw Hocus, lying on the floor - lifeless. I checked the bowl, but it's not broken. It has commited suicide.

It jumped out of the bowl. Very unusual. Is it suffering from depression? Another tragic death of a beloved pet.

Selamat di kebumikan di depan rumah.

Job Interview 2: Closer to dream??? Or just a detour??

On 23rd July 09.

My 2nd job interview after 2 months of hunting.

Post: Shoe designer.

Have to go through with a Japanese recruitment company for the job.

Interview took place at Menara UBM, in freaking unpredictable KL city.

Possible employer is still unknown. The recruitment people can't disclosed their client's info, yet! I was surprised to received the call for interview.

I was numb and a wee bit nervous while counting the days to the interview and making plans to go there and what to bring.

Was sweating my big ass off while searching for my final year project in the storage.

Was not nervous at all during D-day.Even took a nap before prepping up - advisable because it loosen your unwanted nerves.

Nerves finally kicked in when reached KL.

Was late by 10 minutes.And I didn't apologize.

Manners went out the window after the receptionist immediately put me into a small room to fill up a form. Spent a good 10 minutes on that alone.

Giggled and bonded with the 2 interviewers. Both females.

Left just at the nick of time when my 'driver' texted me.

Called my good friend ; Nad to brag and more giggles while waiting for my car.

Went back feeling relief with a sushi meal in me belly.

A day delayed: Scared myself of the thought of the 'rest of my life'.

Safe to say...I'm feeling way better in every morning.

A Marc Jacobs documentary.

From Lovers to Loonies.

Last week, on the 9th July, to be exact, I read TWO, in fact, disturbing news about two females who are torn from love and tried to commit suicide. Drama! Drama! Drama!

I read somewhere, long time ago, there is a research indicates that people in love have the same brain patterns to loonies. By loonies, I meant crazy people (of course, what other loonies there are except for 'Looney Toons'). Probably explained the human behavior when they're in love: the euphoria of 'I CAN DO ANYTHING'.

Which also explains another theory of why people in torn from love tends to stalk, be crazy jealous, and some threaten to commit suicide. I couldn't find the article, so safe to say the theory might not be true. But I manage to find this research @ http://health.dailynewscentral.com, stating that those who are rejected from sexual overtures, will not harm themselves or other peeps, but those who are rejected from love in the society tends to kill themselves or others to. Scary. Crime of passion.

An article from Clare Smiga entitled 'Love in the Brain', states that another reason besides the existence of pheromones - we tend to be attracted to individual from factors like social and environmental influences, genetic information, and past experience contribute to who we are and who we find attractive physically and emotionally. Example; women were attracted to the smell of a man who was genetically similar, but not too similar, to their fathers. Which kinda explains some things.

And, kinda reminds me of Sigmund Freud's Oedipus complex for boys and Electra complex for girls. Boys have this UNCONSCIOUS wish to kill of his father and sexually possess his mother. Note that it is an unconscious wish, total unacceptable to a human brain and behavior. As for girls, she discovered she doesn't have a penis and blames her mother for it. Therefore, she tends to love her father more and hope to share his father's penis because she has lost hers. In an acceptable society theory: daddy's girl and mama's boy.

In another major love theory, according to psychologist Zick Rubin, there are two basic love; compassionate and passionate love. Compassionate love is characterized by mutual respect, attachment, affection, and trust. Compassionate love usually develops out of feelings of mutual understanding and shared respect for each other. Whereas, passionate love is characterized by intense emotions, sexual attraction, anxiety, and affection. When these intense emotions are returned, people feel elated and fulfilled. Passionate love could last up to 6 to 30 months.

BUT, what I would like to aim for the 'rare' type of love -from passionate to compassionate love. A relationships that combine the security and stability of compassionate with the intensity of passionate love. A bit more complex, I assumed.

So, pucker up lovers!

Think Before You Act

Scene taken during a rainy day @ Asia Cafe' SS15, Subang Jaya.

Spotted 2 adult males battling it out in front of a major crowd. Before u start to imagining the worst. It's nothing like what u've seen in 'Fight Club'. No blood.

Don't know really what the cause of the fight in the first place. By the time I turned, the Indian guy punched (what seemed to be a sucker punch to the cheek) the Malay dude who is enjoying his dinner with 2 chicks and another dude.

Act 2, the Malay dude stood up and give the other guy a good shoved ----and now, the dudes are chest to chest against each other. A few uncommon words of fight wisdom lashes on. The chicks with the Malay dude were holding his wrist - asking him to cool down. And the other dude with him, try to pull the Indian guy away.

I've seen fights before, some are civil in fight terms, and most are annoying. BUT, this fight would fall into a normal argument of misunderstanding if the Indian dude didn't have his toddler son at his arms and his pregnant wife with him while he punched, shoved, swore (in order). Disgustingly disturbing. How appalling!

The egotistic battles ends when others intervene (not the public - we just stared at them). I felt sad for the pregnant wife when she apologized to the other guy - and he accepts it, while the disgruntled hubby just dashes away.

Note: When getting into a physical fight. Make sure there is no toddlers or kids around, particularly your own. - Not setting a good example. And you'll just humiliate yourself.

Watch This with Caution: Skrip 7707

On Tuesday, I was one of the 'fortunate' peeps to go to the screening of this local horror flick entitled; "Skrip 7707". This movie is supposedly be release next week on 16th July, in my experiences of premiers and first screenings, this got to be the earliest one before date of official release, AND, unfortunately enough one of the worst horror flick. Don't get me wrong, I've seen local horror flicks at the cinema before, and I enjoyed it, but this one, I laughed all the way and it's not even during the comedic scenes. Sad, I know.

Let me summerize the movie, it's pretty simple, really - Norman (KRU) played the film producer/director who came into a creative block looking for a horror script for his next film. With, tons of scripts (in close ups, you can see its actually a student's assignments reports) on his table, he bashed out his personal asst/secretary to round up all his staff at the place what seemed to be the SCARIEST place to her: a Chinese cemetery. There's like 9 of them - including Norman - so, that makes 9 individual stories. Basically, the stories are pretty bleak to begin with, with just a hint of mystery and horror. Note: JUST A HINT. At the end of the movie, Norman has come to another writer's block; he doesn't know how to end the movie with 9 different/individual stories. So, the twist at the end: SPOILER ALERT: he discovered he has mistaken the date of the 'heart-to-heart-camping-horror-story telling' with his staff, as he looked upon his camera where he supposedly documented the whole conversation, he saw the 'ghost' of each of the stories itself with him at the Chinese graveyard. Supposedly spooky. :(

The ghosts in the movie are in full make up, I mean, one looked like baru lepas celebrate Deepavalli, the other looked like Chinese opera. With lack attention to detail - poor sets, props, locations, wardrobe, make up and most importantly story line. One scene is so depressingly sad, I swear I heard people laughing at it - a bloody baby who is clearly a mechanical toy you could purchase at any toy store. Plus, the dialogues and use of language!!?? The whole movie seemed like it was set during the 50's (eg. 'Kekasih') and some shows races stereotypical characteristics that were poorly executed. Where's the authenticity of the whole atmostphere in the movie? Definitely not consistent. Research. Research. Research.

Before I went to catch this movie, I did a research on it. Basically the hoopla was Fasha Sanda, in her birthday suit wearing only a piece of Batik cloth (berkemban). And, dudes...she's wet in it too. How cliche'. I think the movie's survival technique is to promote that particular scene.

I've seen much older movies that are STILL giving me the hibbies-jibbies! (eg.'Main-main hantu'). Simple. Funny. Scary sloppy make up. Damn right entertaining. Love it. I've watched the 'Keliwon' series on TV3, and I DO think it's entertaining. Original. That's a Malaysian ghost stories.

Out with the Old, In with the New!

Lately I have bunch of my old mates texting and calling me with their new numbers. So, being the 'never bothered' person I am, usually when peeps gave me their new number, I would just label it as 'their name - new'. To the extent, I would have two of the same contact label, but not sure which one is the latest. Plus, some peeps would have up to 5 numbers, which is tedious for me when calling them - having to try one number at a time. I don't know why people changes phone numbers like their changes their clothes. I had my number - the one I'm STILL using since form 3 or 4, phones may change gradually over the years but I still have the same digits. I may have changed my number ONLY once, because I left my phone at home, and I was staying at a dormantry, so, I need a number that my family and friends could reach me in case of emergency. Borrowed my friend's other phone and bought a new sim card; for a week I was a Maxis user. Then, of course, I sold the sim card to my friend and back to my old self. So, being the LOYAL person I am, I had this number for almost a decade (I had already changed the sim card but not the number), gradually, after collecting bunch of numbers from strangers, hotels, friends, families, lecturers, colleagues, room mates, classmates, ETC, my sim card have finally reached it's limit. Of course, I need to go through the names one alphabet at a time to cut the unknown, 'don't remember', and crazy people I don't want or lost contact of. Out with the old, in with the new! As I go through, I sort of took a trip down memory lane - trying to remember the exact person with their numbers. I have ALMOST every lecturer's number (I was the class rep back in my diploma days), one lecturer I even have his house number (because he kept using his house number to call me). I've realized I have some of the most funniest and bizarre, yet, strangely disgusting lecturers.

Once, I have a lecturer that won't start a class until I was there - just me, other people don't have this type of 'honor'. Which is kinda sucks for the days I want to skip it. Truth be told, I never skipped his class before, because of my recognizable face and excellent discipline! hehe. I could get away with anything with my reputation he gave me credit for. FYI, I got an A for his class. Actually, to think it, I get away with laziness and talking in class, through out my academic days.

Back in the days, I have a bunch of male lecturers, all of them, are as horny as a teenager. The reason I said that, because they always make me and my friends felt uncomforable. But, not to worry, I was not alone most of the time, I was usually with my friends laughing away to their perverted remarks and ignoring the poor bastards at the same time. Plus, they should know it's a woman's prerogative to take the advantage of weak men - nothing of vulgarity of any kind, just plain charm of acting to listen. Once, a lecturer of mine, just came out from his sounding sleep at his office, then, realizing he have a class to teach to ( he missed the class for a freaking hour!), then, instead of going up the classroom, he sat himself with my friends, with 'morning' breath (yuck!) and sleepy face, he said he was tired and sleepy, I scolded him that he have a class upstairs, he just smiled on, and rubbing is arms and hands between his legs, then, my friend teased him to just continue on sleeping..he replied, with a dirty smirk: "Kalau tido sorang-sorang tak best...". Being a daring trio we are, me and my friends replied, "EWW! tak sedar! ingat nak ada orang tido ngan dia!"

Then, there's this lecturer that kept coming to me and my friends to confide in us about his countless girlfriends -the first thing he does before starting the lesson of the day. Most of the time, we would brag about his family or dissing him (just to spite him), but then, he didn't take it personal, instead he took it as a joke. He is a typical spoil brat that still didn't realized what he got back home (a family!). To make things worst, his wife is working at the same place, but didn't teach us. P.S: I also got an A for his subject too!

Then, there's my share of 'orang giler'. I literally label them 'org giler' 1,2,3...in my phone. Orang giler number one: I got his number when I accidentally sent a quick message to a friend, the message goes: "I pakai seluar." That's it. After I realized I sent it to the wrong number, the anonymous stranger replied the text. I was so embarassed. He texted about himself, to make things worst I discovered he worked in Shah Alam, which is where I am at that time. After ignoring series of attempts for an introduction he stopped. Thank God.

Orang giler number 2: I assumed he was an old classmate of mine, otherwise how the hell did he retrive my number. He wanted to remained as mysterious as ever - he won't tell me his name even when forced. Then, he miss called me again and again (never long enough for me to answer), and left me text messages that would make my skin crawls with agony. For a moment, I considered to change my number. When I called him, he won't answer and would cancel the call. I went ballistic - to stop this manic casanova I've asked a few people to call him instead just to discover his identity. Once, when a friend of mine tried, he answered, my friend pretended to call her friend - the wrong number + embarass girl type of call. Being a typical dog, he took the liberty to flirt with my friend. But, when asked who is it, he won't answer and hung up. I finally end the agony by telling him off - I have a boyfriend excuse. He contributes the most disgusting line ever: "I love your body, I love your words, and I love you..." - What the heck!?!!

Other than, perverts and maniacs, I have a list of peeps and dormitory mates that I would just want to forget and can't remember at the first place. There's only a HANDFUL of peeps from this 'era' are left in my phone. The ones I kept are the ones that counts. These people can expect open house invitations and future wedding invites from me. Hehe.

School are like so 3 months ago. Totally washed my hand to that! Here's a few pics down memory lane.

@ Raub, Pahang for Brassband camping trip (Hate it!)

Love This Site: shopstarstyle.com

Apparently this site's group on Facebook added me as a friend through my other fave and rave shopping site; eluxury.com. I thought; "Wow, up to 85% off from retail prices for designer handbags?!"....- I'm in!!

What's so lovely and dear about it that its categorized the handbags according to celebrity looks. These handbags you would probably seen these celebs toting around town with. So, of course, my eyes gander at the letter M and L of the celeb listings. M for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (love their 'effortless' style), while L for Lauren Conrad for her lovely (and much envied by me!!) Chanel Jumbo bag.

To my wondrous surprise, my Chanel Jumbo quilt flip bag sold for USD250. Its a bargain if you're asked me!? Most ofthe bags are below USD500; the ones that I like so far-lah! It all seemed too good to be true, maybe it is ..maybe it's not. Whatever it is, it definitely caught my attention (and my heart!) to own that taunting Chanel Jumbo bag!! Damn u! Someday I'm gonna wrap you around my arms!

Super cute song!

It's so relaxed, comfortable, and warm. Just how a person in love should be feeling.

My fave line:

"..And you know how people shorten other people's names
to show their affection
like if you called me Ray, if my name was Raymond
well your name ain't Susan but I would call you Sue
to show you how bad I like to be with you.."
