The big news is about to be revealed.

*Clears throat*

FYI, the snake that has trespassed into my house the other day is yet to be found. So, can someone please tell me where had it actually gone to? Is the snake hiding from us now or is it waiting for the perfect time to strike?

Or do you think that it might be a story created by my oh-too-boring maid? No? All right then.

Anyway, many possibilities are playing in my mind at the moment and I am not ruling out the possibility that the snake might have entered the house also. I mean my house. Do you know how much this snake has affected my mental health? I have been living in fear ever since the snake was spotted and I can’t help but to feel jittery whenever I get near the gate.

Okay, enough with the snake…now let’s get to another topic.

In just a glimpse of an eye, one week has passed and it's Wednesday again. Somehow, this week is rather different. I saw something which I should never have seen in the first place. But out of curiosity, I insisted on taking a look and now, my feelings are beyond description. I guess I've learnt a lesson. I should not and never ever resort to looking at things which I SHOULD NOT see. Wait a minute. Before you guys embark on further negative thoughts, I shall make myself clear first. It is not pornography-related. Okay?

However, I understand the very fact that we cannot turn back time and things that have happened cannot be erased just like a mark on the paper. God has made it this way and I need to accept his planning.

Anyhow, I have no idea why I am blogging about this but I guess this is just the perfect platform for me to voice my annoyance and doubts in life.

Snaky event

I felt compelled to blog today. Why? Simply because there is a SNAKE in my house. It’s green and it’s nasty and it has obviously scared off my maid! So, what exactly happened?

Moments ago, I took mum to do some groceries shopping and when we reached home, the first thing that my new sis-in-law told me was, “Lu eh chu uu cua” (there’s a snake in your house). I couldn’t believe it. A snake in my house? I’ve dreamt about it, I’ve watched movies about it and now, it’s happening?

Okay..according to the victim (my maid), the snake dropped off from the gate when she was about to walk out to bring in the garbage trolley. Of course, she was clearly very shocked when she saw the snake but she managed to run to the back of the house to grab a stick. I guess the snake was equally terrified too, as it ran before my maid returned with the stick. So how am I feeling right now? I am petrified, terrified, horrified and I am extremely shaken by the whole incident (though I didn’t actually see the snake).

I seriously don’t know why the snake is here but I pray hard that it was just passing by and did not have any intention to reside here. Yes, I may be a snake myself (my Chinese zodiac), but it doesn’t mean that I will not be afraid of my ‘pals’. If they would want to pay me a visit, don’t you think that ‘they’ should at least give me a notice? Oh God…this is scary...i’ve heard about snakes on the plane and now there is snake in the house? And worse, it is in my house! Oh God, it can go anywhere but please and I say please, do not come into my house. I’m warning ‘you’! Don’t mess with me or I’ll mess with you.

So, back to my maid. After we settled down from the oh-my-gods and what-the-hells, I tried to obtain more information from her. She said that images of her children flashed through her mind when she saw the snake. She thought that she was going to get ‘kissed’ by the snake and that she will have to say ‘bye-bye’ to her children. But fortunately, the snake went off. Nothing untoward incident happened. However, I do believe she was traumatized. She almost teared when she related the story to me..Oh, poor her.

Shall we pray together and hope that the green snake will not be back again?

P/s: I’ve heard from mum that besides sulfur, there is one more thing that can keep off the snakes at bay. Heard of goose? Heard of their droppings? Okay, these goose droppings can kill the snakes if the snakes happen to brush their bodies against them. Do you know that? Well, I did consider buying those droppings and smearing it all over my house after that incident. You think that I was silly? Wait until a snake enters your house!


This is a sketch of the 'villian'. Pls inform me if you happen to see it.
Your co-operation is much appreciated. Thank you.

Mei's birthday bash

One word that sums up the party last night ~ Fantastica ~

Fiona, Deborah and Irene treated themselves to Big Apple Donuts before we arrived.
Three people sharing one piece (how economical). LOL

****

We had planned to rock ourselves in Red Box as part of Mei's early birthday bash. It has been a really long time since I last sang my lungs out. And last night was really fun...double the fun of ordinary sessions. Maybe because it wasn't really that expensive (RM17), as food was provided and they extended the session from 3 hours to 4 hours at no extra charge. So, what say you? Don't you think it is very worthy?

After cracking our brain for nights, we finally decided to give Mei a bouquet of flowers as her present. Although some of you might think that it is a waste of money (as the lifespan of those flowers is probably less than 4 days), I still think that it was a great idea. Tell me, which girl doesn't like flowers? FYI, we girls, love to receive flowers.

So, we covered both Chinese and English songs, from oldies to the latest hits...The room was filled with joy and laughter as we belted out songs from Ah Niu (our Penang boy) and Richie Ren. Overall, it was plain fun and joyful.

I shall let the pictures do the talking.

Making a cameo appearance behind the three.

Okay, I'm officially included this time

I love how the colour of my blouse stands out among the rest. LOL

We were attempting to look silly. And I guess Jo did really well.
LOL


Caught both of them singing passionately.

And now...he says talk to the hand.

There goes the colour 'pink' again...*smirk*

Mei, the birthday girl belting out her idol's song.
As you can see here, she is totally immersed in the song.
Who was she singing for??? Hmm..
.

Okay, this stupid vampire came into the room to scare us.


Look at Jo and Por Wei. How lovely.


Neoh and his pretty girlfriend.



Familiar with that pose? Scroll up and take a second look.







Okay, I admit that I snatched the flowers away from Mei


Oh, come on...Tell me we look great here!!

It's the third day of the week and it says 'time for AE3 class'.
We were supposed to hand in our assignments before
noon today and of course, many of us tried our best to comply with the deadline or else we will have to be slapped with a zero mark for our course work.

So, I would like to share something really hilarious that happened this morning. No, it wasn’t about me but my friend. She had come exceptionally early just to print out her report at the computer lab (that's last minute work! LOL). While I was in the class having a little chat with the lecturer, Mei barged into the small room. She cried out to me and asked for my help. Woah! I thought what had happened to her! Did she forget to save her work into her pendrive? I certainly hope not...

Apparently, it turned out that her paper supply has dried out and she needed my supply. (FYI, KDU only provides 100 papers per sem to each student and if we want more than that, we will have to pay! So, let's figure this together. How are 100 papers going to be enough for five subjects when we need to print notes and also assignments?)

Anyway, being the nice friend that I was, I allowed her to use my papers.

*Few minutes later*

She barged into the room again. Yes. Again. This time, she looked more anxious and her hair was all over her face.

I think today is just pure bad day for her. The printer in the lab had broke down and her report was halfway printed. Such a memorable day for her, huh? She had no choice, but to run to the printing shop behind the school.


*Minutes later*

She walked into the class again. No worries, she was all done this time. Her report was successfully printed and neatly stapled. By that time, those who were in the class (and that included me) had already finished the first part of the lesson, which is analyzing an article.
Luckily, I had printed mine at home last night. My printer almost bailed out on me but fortunately it didn't. All the while, it loves to give me trouble at the last minute by either jamming the papers or printing nonsensical stuffs. It didn't happen last night.
And so, I am happy. Exceptionally delightful.

One more thing before I end the post. We had planned a birthday party for Mei tomorrow night at Red Box. I've got to tell you that I am particularly excited this time (even though it isn't for me). Anyway, I think that we are going to have heaps of fun. I've already planned what song to sing and I will memorize the lyrics so that I'll be able to deliver the song smoothly tomorrow. Hahaha..a girl gone wild

Red Bull Bull-eh

I was given a free can of Red Bull while waiting to be picked up at the foyer. I don't usually drink Red Bull but since it was free, I just couldnt resist it (greed kicks in). The salesgirls came in this adorable, cool and attractive little car which also bears the logo of the drink itself.
This car was neatly parked metres ahead of the principal's car. Although the principal's car looks bigger, more spacious and definitely more pricey, this car had successfully caught my eye due to its cute frame and and uniqueness.

It was smaller than the Viva I drive. I fancy it.

The side view of the car

As seen here, I had invited Teik Wei to take this photo with me with both of us holding the RED Bull can. Okay, from the way he looked, I will have to admit that I forced him instead of inviting him.
XDXDXDXDXD


The power of Red Bull is really amazing as I had felt extremely energised the whole night. Instead of sleeping at my usual sleep time 11pm, I slept at 2.30am. Yeah, Red Bull memang Bull-leh!

Monday is another brand new start of the week and everyone is expected to be apathetic.
So, I just thought of sharing some crazy pictures with you to brighten up our little Monday.


Well, at least I thought they were funny.


This is what happens when the mother does not provide breast milk.
Luckily, the toddler can still get it from other source.



If this is true, I would love to marry and 'drag my man'
XD

A very friendly and warm hug on a cold ground.
In Malaysia, I bet the man will be torn into pieces.

Who says cats don't need to be covered up? They need proper bikini just like us.
I would love to see these cats on the beaches, dressed like this and sunbathing one day.
Praying and hoping.


I like this the best !!
The real baby looks scary though
.

*************************************************************************************

Jo and Irene treated us to a supposedly sumptuous lunch today. The venue was their rented apartment and the honourable chef was both the ladies.
It's time for an evaluation.
How does it taste like?
Well, I would say that it can still be improved. Practice makes perfect and considering that it was their first attempt, I will rate them 3/10. LOL

Okay. No offence to any of them but I would just like to try my hand at being a food critic.

*Ahem
*

First of all, the ABC soup tasted like a bowl of salted soup with a generous amount of onions, tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. Seriously...

Next, it was 'fried egg with red beans' that was prepared by Irene. The beans were probably too crushed and mashed and it tasted weird (for me). I took a first scoop of that dish and that's it. Ask no more. My expression says it all.

Last, it was the pattaya style fried egg by Jo which was slightly better compared to the first two. It was acceptable when I took my first bite but when it reached the last portion, I thought it was too wet and a bit undercooked.

Luckily, these 'talented' chefs were willing to make us some real and proper food (sausages and maggi mee) and their sins were immediately wiped off. And this time, they were good. Probably because the food itself does not require much effort at all. Wee.

I'm just very thankful that my mum is an excellent cook.

HaHAHHAAAAaahhhaaa...

Anyway, Jo and Irene, if you are willing to lend me your kitchen one day, I promise I will make you an excellent meal at no extra charge at all. XD
