What is it with me & tyre?

_Yes I do know that the spare tyre around my waist has been there since the fall of Byzantine, but what the heck have I done that pissed you off oh Mr Destiny, until I had to change my tyre for the 2nd time in just 6 months? and you chose that same side to put the nail through it, how funny of you.

Arghhh tak pasal2 melayang 2rat_

Tick Tock Tick Tock

_Damn the clock keeps on ticking, yet nobody genius enough to come up with the formula to reverse aging. I'm almost reaching the sacred 3 series. Dreams aren't fulfilled. Life isn't bed of roses. Demmit I need to do something.

Hmm which of these dreams is realistic & should be pursued before my butt reach its 3rd decade of shitting:

1. ATV across Sahara Desert

2. Scuba diving @ Great Barrier Reef

3. Skiing @ Alps

4. Cross-country on superbike

Fuhh, none of those seems possible. Especially since He took him away from me, from us, that early. I'm not a free man anymore. Money is a constraint. Time, as well. My hands are tied. Gosh how I wish things are different, how I wish things are better.. I really do..

Anyway, happy birthday me_

What A Boring Day @ Work

_Most of the people aren't back from their Raya holidays yet but I'm already in the office. Had no intention to waste any of the remaining annual leaves so that I don't have to fork out a fortune upon submitting my resignation letter soon, which as of now, still uncertain.

From morning, I spent my time:

Reading The Sun - 0.5 hour

Surfing, Googling & Reading Blogs - 1.5 hour

Paying bills (phone, astro) & car installment @ Celcom & Amp Park - 1.5 hour

Sight-seeing @ KLCC - 1.5 hour

Another 4 hours to go, what the heck should I do? Luckily there's no interesting movie on show, if not I would only be back @ the office by 5PM, pack my stuff & chow!!

Serius shit bosan_

All time fav song Part I: I'll Be - Edwin McCain

"I'll Be"

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful

Stop me and steal my breath.

And emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky

Never revealing their depth.

Tell me that we belong together,

Dress it up with the trappings of love.

I'll be captivated,

I'll hang from your lips,

Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above.

[Chorus:]

I'll be your crying shoulder,

I'll be love's suicide

I'll be better when I'm older,

I'll be the greatest fan of your life.

And rain falls angry on the tin roof

As we lie awake in my bed.

You're my survival, you're my living proof.

My love is alive -- not dead.

Tell me that we belong together.

Dress it up with the trappings of love.

I'll be captivated,

I'll hang from your lips,

Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

[Chorus]

And I've dropped out, I've burned up, I've fought my way back from the dead.

I've tuned in, turned on, remembered the things that you said

[Chorus:]

I'll be your crying shoulder,

I'll be love's suicide

I'll be better when I'm older,

I'll be the greatest fan of your...

I'll be your crying shoulder,

I'll be love's suicide

I'll be better when I'm older,

I'll be the greatest fan of your life.

The greatest fan of your life.

...greatest fan of your life.

Full stop.

Riddles of Life Part I: Does everything happen for a reason?

_Sometimes when things didn't go the way I expected, I tried to stay positive by telling myself that there must be a blessing in disguise. But that only took place after I repetitively question the motive behind it and came to no conclusion. Its a venue where I had always struggled; to come to terms with something that doesn't seem to make any sense, no matter which angle my not-so-dumbass brain look at it.

Does everything happen for a reason?

If there's really an explanation to everything, why it isn't revealed upfront so that we don't have to go through all the pain, misery, suffering, etc?

Well, like the saying goes, even the wisest of men don't have the answer to everything. And seriously it sucks_

Penaik Darah Part I: Cleaning Lady

_Antara kemudahan kt office ni yg aku tabik adalah tandas yg mmg sentiasa bersih. Masuk tandas seolah-olah macam nampak gadis ayu, hati rasa sejuk je.Tandas favorite aku tandas solo, tandas yg tak geng dengan tandas lain, anti-social mcm aku gak. Tandas ni tempat aku slalu buang masa baca paper sambil buang isi perut.

Tapi yang paling tak best, asal aku nk berangan lama sket jer, ada la cleaning lady yg akan ketuk pintu. Time aku nak memerut, dan-dan tu laa dia nk cuci. Tadi aku baru 10minit mencangkung, 3 kali dia ketuk. Purata setiap 3.33minit dia kacau aku.

Mau tak hangin?? Hishhh org nak berak pun tak senang~!!

Kapitalisme Opportunist: Tayar Pancit

_Hari ni bangun tak berapa lambat, bersiap pun tak ambil masa lama. Waktu keluar rumah tadi dah boleh agak, kalau lambat sampai office pun dalam setengah jam je. Paling lambat kul 8:45Am dh boleh jejak pintu depan office. Sampai je kat Shell, tayar motor ngam2 takde angin. Dah cuba jolok macam mana pun, angin menderu keluar balik. Memang sah pancit.

Check handphone, arghh bateri kong. BB plak takde kredit. Naseb baik ada 7E kt situ. Nak beli topup, system plak offline. Kul 8AM baru boleh pakai.Topup pn mcm org keje pejabat, kul 8AM baru nampak muka.

Aku pun tak segan silu terus tanya awek yang keje 7E tu, cakap nak pinjam enpon dia. Nak tepon orang datang repair tayar motor pancit kataku. Tp dia kate dia sorg je, takut aku bwk lari fon dia la tu. Dia suh aku mintak kat mana-mana mamat yg jaga pam minyak.

Bila aku tgk yg jaga pam, penuh dengan Indon & Bangla. Kebetulan ada jugak la sorg brader Melayu. Bila aku ckp kt dia nk pinjam enpon, die suh mintak kt wak indon.Aku pn tny wak indon tu plak, tp dia kate fon tggl kt umah. 

Last2 aku masuk 7E balik, time tu topup dh bleh pakai.

Aku call org tukar tayar, dia ckp dia akan suh bdk dia dtg dlm 5minit.

Dan-dan 2minit lpas aku call je, ada apek sorg tny nak repair tayar ke tak. Apek tu aku ingt lg, dia penah ganti tiub tayar motor aku sblm ni. Tp disebabkan aku dh call Melayu td, aku rasa tak patut terima offer apek ni, sbb aku dh commit by making that call.

Tunggu punya tunggu, lepas 15mnt tak dtg, aku call balik. Dia kate dh suh bdk dia gerak, dia bg no tepon bdk tu suh call sndri. Aku call mamat tu sndri, dia kate 10mnt dia smpai. Tunggu punya tunggu, lpas 20mnt tak smpai, aku call blk boss dia.Boss tu ckp dh otw. 10minit lpas tu baru la sampai.

Sejam kt aku menunggu janji Melayu. Lps dh setel, dia charge aku RM30, triple dari harga kt kedai. Apek yg penah ganti tiub tayar aku pn dulu charge RM20 je. 

In the end kul 10AM baru aku sampai office, sungguh haram jadah.

Lesson learnt: Kalau sesape sampai dulu, dia yg akan gantikan tiub. To hell with commitment_

Gadis Tionghua

_Being a bloke living in a jam-packed city, one of the routine I treasure the most is daily commuting to work. It allows me to expand my horizon. Well, apart from the frequent LRT breakdown & the slow service of the staff which is suckass, the abundance of fellow commuters in the gorgeous form of gadis-gadis tionghua really make my day. Ngehee..

Just now I bumped into yet another fair-skinned, wavey-haired, slim slender-built, young & extremely attractive looking gadis tionghua (Gosh I'm out of superlatives to describe her), and suddenly I felt the same way as Marion Caunter when being asked about her younger & outrageously rich hubby-to-be of different race & religion:

"I don't feel Chinese or anything. I just feel that I'm a Malaysian"

Oh dear PM, I fully support your 1Malaysia crap if it means I could end up spending days & nights bedridden with these gorgeous ladies.

Well stakat tak basuh tu takde hal la, hari-hari aku basuhkan sendiri pun takpe. Nyumm nyumm_
