People always asked me why I don't SMS them or initiate the conversation through texting. So hear are a few reasons that I have come up with:
1) I don't want to start an SMS only to be brushed off because they are busy or in the middle of a date or in a major preparation of a project, they promise to text you afterward, do you think they do? 10 percent of them do that the rest... Sigh... So why initiate? Let them initiate it first so you don't put much hopes on it.
2) You are super busy you forget. The next time you check your inbox is when it reaches 95%. Only then you realize that this person said your pay is in and you haven't even collect the cheque to cash it IF you don't erase the SMSes in bulk like : Delete all read messages.
3) IF you have a secret lover (yea2 whatever) and you are afraid to be found out, the best thing to do is not to initiate. Let them come find you. Or you can always initiate the end a.k.a the one time SMS only: "MY bf is here with me. CAN'T text rite now. DO NOT reply, I repeat: DO NOT reply this SMS.
4) They don't prioritize you, so why should you?
5) Why waste your money?
The end! wink2...

3 bullets...
My job scope requires me to hop from one place to the other in 3 seconds - just kiddin. Today I wore my Cheong-sam (a short one, made of silk, red in colour, body fitting)and I wore my gladiator... and my short skirt... I know, It looks funny. I just wanted to be a bit preppy today. Sigh. 3 bullets and a mission. The mission was canceled and I was tired. That's all about it. No stepping on a lizard or anything funny. Sigh again. Boring. Sigh again. Hahaha...

The Lizard...
"Kakak tu pijak cicak tuh laa," Two boys ran frantically to the sound of POP and to the sight of a lizard jerking at the pain of being crushed (on its head) at the end of its lifetime.
"Shit! damn kids..." I trailed off in my mumble.
"Kakak, tgk kat cicak tu. Kesian die," said one of the boys as they came closer to take a closer look at the soon-enough-carcass lizard. They squatted down, looking at it jerked with the tail wriggling detached from the body.
"Jahat laa kakak nie," said the other one. I stopped walking, turned around, full body. I straighten up my blue shirt from U2, trotting with this determined face in my TSC black heels and office pants from PDI. I tighten my necktie and looked at the boys. They were still squatting down, experiencing the few last seconds before the lizard became carcass. I squatted down with them (one knee touched the ground) in the middle of the lobby. I looked at both of them right into their eyes, hoping to get a grip on their souls, I mumbled while looking from the kids to the lizard:
"Tu laaa... kalau lintas jalan tak tgk kiri kanan, nanti jadik cam cicak nie. Nak ke?" I looked back at them. They seemed terrified. With a wicked and evil smile, I got up back on my two feet brushing off my shoulder (there were dandruff there), turned around, walked away with a loud sound of my clanking shoes, looked back at them and watched them ran away.
In my head I asked a question: Am I that terrifying? I laughed. But then I realized I don't wanna be crushed down by Mrs. N as I am already late for work - Yikes!

It's time to stop and let the world moves around you.
I trotted down the vast walkway of City Centre with my high-heeled gladiator shoes in black which I bought in a flee market last weekend, with my short black skirt, a white shirt from G2000 Women, a red neck tie made of silk and my sunglasses tugged on my head with my wild curl hair pony tailed. My mission was to pay the phone bill; ashamed to say that it was barred this morning when I intended to wish my hub good morning and all. It frustrated me. It seems like I am easily frustrated by things all around me these days. I have no idea why; If you think its PMS, than think again.
At one point of the past few days I was really stressed. I feel that the world is clinging on my back that I have to drag it everywhere I go. It annoys me and yesterday was the real blow. The day I have 8 appointments in The Administrative Centre where I have to commute by a bus and a bullet and it took ages for every one of them to actually be punctual enough to be there on time - which added up the already high level of stressed. Fortunately I had the privilege to walk from one government office to the other. That makes me a bit happy, indulging the beauty of the surrounding and take in as much sun as possible there. I love the lake. It is soothing. My view was reverted to the dream house that I always wanted, a small pond with scented flowers and trees surrounding my little cottage.
But than again that fantasy made me tense again. There are many things that I really wanted but never the chance to have it. But when one actually comes, it is ridiculous to go for it. At the sudden realization, I viewed people that surround me, they are getting what they want, although not all but most of it. Edmund is getting married soon, and we are discussing about the date for engagement and the hall has been booked. Hub got the chance of stardom when he was selected to be in CLEO's 50 Most Eligible Bachelor - although he did not win any title but the exposure is quite awesome. My mom is needed in a social project and I know she feels good that people actually need her.
Sigh, I turned into the telco store, and went straight to the deposit machine, pound my finger on the touch-screen machine and inserted 4 bills of 50. The machine took time to actually count the money and it said something on the screen, something unfamiliar. It said: "please take rejected notes". I was half cursing. I canceled the transaction and she a nearby telco personnel.
"Excuse me," I said.
"Yes, miss, how can i help you?" he said politely.
"My bills were rejected by the machine, is there anyway that I can change the notes?" I asked, trying my best to remain calm.
"I'm sorry miss you will have to change it at any of other store as we are using 80% online system which means we don't have cash," He explained.
So before I slapped him right on his left cheek, I stormed out of the facility and searched a convenient store. But then, I remembered there's a bank nearby and I tried my luck depositing the bills into my account, it went in in less that one minute. I grunted to myself. I stepped out of the line and line - up to withdraw the money and I was happy when I finally walked out of the bank with the cash in my hand. line up again at the deposit machine and this time around they were accepted.
I headed for the bullet and while in the bullet I think about the world that is on my back. I know I can't have everything I want or wish I want, but to this extend, I began to wonder. What if, I say to myself and look how it goes, I lit up, I say to myself: It's time to stop and let the world moves around me. I am almost there of taking actions I don't wanna take, but that's life right?

Love this One!!
Revival...
I lay alone awake at night
Sorrow fills my eyes
But Im not strong enough to cry
Despite of my disguise
Im left with no shoulder
But everybody wants to lean on me.
I guess Im their soldier.
Well, whos gonna be mine
Whos there to save the hero
When shes left all alone
And shes crying out for help.
Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.
I bottle all my hurt inside,
I guess Im living a lie.
Inside my mind each day I die
What can bring me back to life?
A simple word, a gesture
Someone to say youre beautiful
Come find this buried treasure
Rainbows lead to a pot of gold
Whos there to save the hero
When shes left all alone
And shes crying out for help
Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.
Ive given too much of myself
And now its driving me crazy
(Im crying out for help?
Sometimes I wish someone would
Just come here and save me
Save me from myself
Whos there to save the hero
When shes left all alone
And shes crying out for help
Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.
Sorrow fills my eyes
But Im not strong enough to cry
Despite of my disguise
Im left with no shoulder
But everybody wants to lean on me.
I guess Im their soldier.
Well, whos gonna be mine
Whos there to save the hero
When shes left all alone
And shes crying out for help.
Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.
I bottle all my hurt inside,
I guess Im living a lie.

Come find this buried treasure

Whos there to save the hero
When shes left all alone
And shes crying out for help
Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.
Ive given too much of myself
And now its driving me crazy

Whos there to save the hero
Whos there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world.

Frustrating
It's frustrating when you are extremely stressed and you tried to talk to people - they are not there to listen to you. So, I walked out of the office, in my pretty black zip-up suit and black and white flower print skirt from Zang Toi, and soon enough finding myself to be standing in front of the see-through fridge of 7-Eleven and tempted to take the Coke bottle but settled with an apple juice. Trotted out of the store only to find people smoking,which at this time of the week, I was really in need of one but shrugged the idea of my head, and sat on one of the many stairs in front of them looking helpless regardless the power suit that I was wearing. I looked at my hands, they were shaking, at that moment I knew that I will loose it... Really soon.
I fondled inside my bag for my handphone, trying some other people to call.
Flipped open my Z555i, scrolled down the endless entries of name in the phone book, and stopped instantly at a name. I pressed the call button.
"Hey!" she said excitedly at the other end of the line.
"I'm stressed...,"
