Insufficient town.

1. Collect repaired bag for mil
2. Buy milk powder for Shir's baby
3. Buy coffee for Shir
4. Buy medication for Uncle Lai
5. Repair watch
6. Bring Cand's camera for repair
7. Collect spareparts for Dad
8. Pay insurance for Ant

As the days go by, as we keep delaying our trip to Singapore, my to-do list keeps getting longer... and only one is my own.

I need to start charging people for this.

Health Check 1-2-3

Dry lips

Dry cough

Thick yellow flem

Blocked nose

Headaches

Pain between the eyes

Diarrhea

Sorethroat

-Feels quite sick-

What do you do?

God must have granted what I asked for in a semi-permanent way.

I remember wishing I wouldn't have to go to work during one of my difficult times in Singapore and now I got it. In fact, I have not been working that much for two years now. I must have sounded really desperate then.

What's this?! I go to the office, surf the net a little, wait for lunch time then home.

I looked over the accounts, made some adjustments here and there and corrected some reporting errors. But that took only one week.

This company truly is for self motivating individuals only.

My boss/ father asked me to look for my own work and responsibilities.

ADAM lied?!

They reported the number of injured and deaths, lying about finding the wreckage.

Geez.

Movies Mania

I don't know if we are a little behind but here's the list of movies we just caught

1. ERAGON (WHEEEEeee)
2. Curse of the Golden Flowers (see what unresolved tension & differences between a couple can do)
3. Thank You For Smoking (hee hee)
4. Night at the Museum (Jumanji II)
My favourite is Eragon. I lay awake in bed that night wishing for a pet dragon and magic powers too.

Such an angry little person

Why is it that when my dad or when my bro talk, all the staffs whimpered and scurried to their attention.

But when I talk, they try to ignore... I have to raise my voice in a harsh tone before they stand up straight.

I think it has something to do with me being built this way - 1.65m, skinny, without a penis.

It takes a man to make things move in this country. Don't be fooled by the previous woman president we had. She didn't last long did she?

Back in the neighbourhood.

I am overwhelmed with joy. After being away for so long, it feels so so wonderful to read about an engagement, motherhood and the new experiences everyone is going through. My heart is singing with joyous Christmas carols! (yes yes, theoretically the carols were overdue). And I had great fun attempting Andrea's "Who owns the fish?" puzzle. I had so much fun that I printed out two extra copies and passed them to my brother and cousin to work on. The Brother is still spinning his pencil and pulling his hair beside me. hahahhahah

JUMPING TO the hot topic of the week ... ...
OLD & NEW...

The year 2006. Most my friends had an eventful year with new homes, new babies, new marriages, new jobs, new countries, a new tummy (it was tucked)... I think the babies topped my list. That's quite logical given I am supposedly at the (Indonesia's) national average child bearing age and most of my friends are too.

I would say mine is no different. Went through the wedding, got a new address, got a driver's license, moved to a new job that was as boring as the previous one. Like the year before the last, I have consistently managed to achieve nothing much. I supposed we will always have the following year to look forward to. If I sounded somewhat negative, blame it on my flu or the medication I am taking.

Whatever it is, I hope the new year will only get better. Cause I need more hope and faith to be happy living here.

Blessings counted?
1. I found my best friend from Primary school after 15 years and will be meeting her in 10 days
2. I started work on my future's baby's room (not planning on a kid until Y2008)
3. Long lost friend from No.1 above got me my A Maths text book to sharpen my brains (once again)
4. More quality family time
5. I am still buddies with my two best pals here
6. I read more books as per my last year's resolution

There. I feel much better now.

Leap

Every time my brains go through a leap backwards I have to go through a depressing stage. Have you seen the size of them. Its the size of a pea.

I lashed it out on dozens of pineapple tarts, hours of sitcoms and bouts of arguments.

I don't feel better.

Why is it just months after the wedding, I am beginning to have doubts? Is it the stage where all wives and husbands go through at intervals of their marraige. We are not fighting about anything at the moment. So this discontentment just stem out of nothing.

It's the bottled rage inside me. From the driver who hit my cousin with his car then with his fist without a word after cutting into our parking space. I get flashbacks of the incident once in a while, many times changing the scene to what I could have done to help. I was not the principal in the incident but it traumatized me in its own way. I feel violated. And I don't want to bring up my kids in such a society. The security guards let the hitter go scoot free lying to us that they will get him at the exit. Bastards.
