Childhood snacks

I went to the market with my mom today and found a whole lot of snacks that I used to eat as a child. One of my favourite things that's really hard to find nowadays is preserved green mangoes. It's really sour and you dip it into chilli salt... heaven! I really don't know how to describe the sensation you get when you bite into it, but it feels like your sleeping tastebuds have been shocked awake! Really yummy and it makes your whole mouth tingle, and your teeth feels like they're gonna drop off coz it's so sour!

Haha, I bought two packets of the mangoes and completely whacked a whole pack alone. I've got another one in the fridge for tomorrow!!

I also bought this flat biscuit thing which is deep fried and has anchovies and peanuts as toppings. I seriously don't remember the name of this snack, but it's really crispy (and oily!) and the saltiness of the anchovies is just the best. If you haven't realised, I love salty food. Bad for my health, I know but I can't help it!

I wonder if I'll be able to find more childhood snacks here and there... Things that you remember always taste the best.

Really?

It's been a year since I went to the Bali? Has time really flied by so fast???

It must be true. I mean Mandu is a whole 3 months old already. Gosh... talk about fast. Just last year at this time I was walking around Bali, looking for cheap bargains and getting ripped off left and right.

And I'm gonna pass my first milestone soon. I just reached it!!

Gosh, I am starting to feel old....

Premature midlife crisis alert!!! Someone cheer me up quick!!

Lucky I have a movie date planned with the gang next week. There are things to look forward!!!

Useless b**ody b**t**d

You know what really pisses me off? When someone takes my work and passes it off as their own. Remember how I said that I have a new hobby? Well it's doing translation work for one of my favourite shows. I translate an episode and then do an episode synopsis and post it up on a different blog.

And guess what. I watched a subbed episode of the show online and noticed that some of the subtitles for the dialogues were really familiar. Too familiar. I opened my blog page and compared it to the parts where I did write out dialogues. And found out that they were EXACTLY the same.

Word for word. No difference at all. No paraphrasing, nothing.

And the good for nothing scumbag credited the whole thing to himself. I'm not crying over the fact that I don't have his five minutes of fame, but come on. Hasn't he ever heard of manners? It's only polite to let the other person know that you're taking some of their hard work and using it as your own. You don't even have to credit me in the video, just bloody let me know! Is it that hard to post a comment telling me?

But no. This crappy lowlife just thinks that he can take anything he wants just coz it's out in the open on the internet. Well, good for you. If you can do this online, then you're definitely capable of doing this in real life. And trust me blockhead, you won't go very far in life.

Measures shall be taken. And I will not rest till the whole world knows what a phony you are.

Despicable excuse of a living being.

A new hobby

I have been pretty caught up with my new hobby these past few days hence the lack of posts on my blog, muahahahaha!!!! I'd tell you all more about it but I just don't feel like it! Muahahahaha!!

Anyways, I think I may just go and get my tooth pulled out. Heard that my dentist is gonna move away at the end of the month so I'd better go get it done. Don't want to leave the fate of my gums and tooth in the hands of another...

Plus L and I have decided on our project! Yes, it's finally starting! Woohoo!!

And you know something... I've been rather mean lately. Been having really selfish and mean thoughts. This isn't like me. I know I'm better than that. But those thoughts keep sneaking into my mind and I keep pushing them out. Thank god I'm still able to push them out. If there ever was a day that I allowed them to stay inside my head, then please hit me on my head with a bottle. Let the physical pain wake me up!

I've decided to just let things take their own course. What happens, happens. Que sera sera.

Woohoo!!

It's Friday, it's Friday!

I have the whole weekend planned out in front of me! Gonna spend lots of quality time with me, myself and I!

I forsee lots of experimenting in the kitchen and maybe a movie marathon? Muahahaha, I am just going to do whatever I feel like doing! Be spontaneous!

Plus! I am going to postpone my nightmare! I refuse to pull my wisdom teeth next week. I refuse to! I insist on at least another 2 more months of joy before having to face pain again!

I love the weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Horror of horrors

I went to the bakery after work today, firstly to buy bread and secondly to buy any yummyliciously fattening snack that I could have while I was watching T.V (yes I am a bum... one with an expanding bum at that...).

Anyways, I walked in, picked my tray up and peered into the little display cases searching for the treats I desired when....

I heard it....

The familiar hair-raising tune...

THAT I SO DETEST....

The weird electronica tune of the instrument which I now forget its name. The one that has that piano keyboard thingy attached to a box-like lanterny thing... you know what I'm talking about? You kinda pull the lanterny thing and play the keyboard to produce music. That instrument!

Aaah, but I digress... Back to my horror story...

Then I heard that voice. That whiny irritating voice.

Or actually voices...

"Baby, one more time..."

AARGHHHHH!!!

It was that annoying song by Jewelery!!

I froze in my tracks and glared at the speakers for causing such pain to my ears. Needless to say I grabbed the bread and just picked up a chicken pie and a pizza loaf (yes, I still had time to choose fattening treats. What can I say... I'm dedicated to my mission...) before running to the cashier, dumping the exact amount on the table and fleeing the horror scene before they started playing yet another atrocious song...

Which of course would be "So Hot" by the Wonder Girls. God, someone needs to come up with better songs. And I can't believe that Min Woo actually wrote "Baby One More Time". What was he thinking???

Feels like ages...

... since my last post...

Although it's been a mere 3 days or so...

And! It's Friday the 13th!

Yikes!

I haven't seen any black cats so it should be fine right? Hmmm....

I finished one job today, completed the whole thing and just waved it goodbye. It feels good not having to think and worry about it anymore. Let's just hope that all goes well! Muahahahaha!

I went looking at household appliances today! I want a new LCD tv and a microwave! I saw one of those microwave+toaster combination gadgets in the store and nearly died when I saw the price. For the amount that I would be paying for that combi gadget thingy, I would have been able to buy like 4 microwaves and 4 toasters.

Go figure...

I wonder if they actually sell any of those gadgets... I've seen it being used in a guy's house in Korea. But remember, he's a guy. They generally go for the easy way out rather than use their logic. In fact when we reason "Why would I buy a combi gadget thingy?? I would be able to buy 4 microwaves and 4 toasters for that amount! It's just not worth the money!" they look at us funny and say that we're scrooges. When we all know that they're just being Pinky.

Guys...

Anyways, I am looking forward to a nice long weekend of lazing around, baking, having breakfast with my Mom and sushi with L and friend! Hope everyone has a great weekend too!!

Too much on my plate...

... and no, I am not talking about food.

For once....

I think I have been accepting too many jobs lately. I come home feeling cranky and when I look at the pile of work that I have YET to do, I just feel like tearing my hair out and screaming out loud while running around like a headless chicken.

But it's really all my fault. I have been dabbling in a few things that have interested me in quite a while. L and I are also trying out something new. Although I think that I am waaaaaay behind on schedule....

But since L hasn't started hounding me with an axe, I think that she's behind schedule as well.

Haha!!

L, do you think we'll actually be able to finish things by the time we said we will??

Plus we have to meet up with a friend on Sat. Altho L hasn't fully agreed yet, I'm dragging her to the meeting no matter what! I don't want to meet old friends alone. Being together all alone is awkward at times. There must always be someone else present to think up of more topics to talk about!!

Sigh... Time I finish a few of those things screaming out at me...

SIGH.........

I want my own kitchen

I've been hit by the domestic bug again and now I can't stop cooking. This is bad. Very very bad. Especially when I am supposed to be on a diet, but all my cooking is making me put on weight coz SOMEONE has to eat it all right??

Bad I tell you, bad...

But a piece of good news! R found a really good job!! Congrats R!!! So I shall be expecting a super duper big b-day present right?? I'll give you my address so you can mail it to me! No probs!!!

Muahahaha!!!!!!

I am one greedy girl....

Aiiii...........

OH WELL!!!

Happy Birthday Sis!!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday dear sister!

Happy birthday to you!!

Muahahaha, you've aged another year today! But you still look the way you did at 21!! Well, maybe not EXACTLY but still similar enough!!

Muahahahaha!!!

I hope you had a great day, and received lots of love and presents from everyone. Mine is... well... I guess this is it from me... A blog entry...

OH WELL....

I'll buy you more presents when I strike it rich! I promise!

But for now, just make do with this yea?? Love you loads, and wish you the best of everything in life!! And I hope you get more and more promotions so that you'll be able to buy me more gifts!! Remember our 1,000,000 dream?? It's on its way! I can sense it!

MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's June!

Gosh, it feels like it's been ages since my last post. I've been rather busy, new stuff at work, plans on the way, family visiting, playing and entertaining myself with Mandu, trying to work out more (my knees are sore!!) and generally just trying to do a whole lot of things in a short space of time.

I'm feeling sleepy and tired, but my brain's wide awake...

Good thing I have my slave of a cousin around to make me coffees and snacks!

Muahahahaha!!!

It's June!

*GASP!!*
