Rabbit lady!

The popular blogs are always inundated with photos of the bloggers camwhoring with themselves, themselves and themselves.

So a very wuliao me decided to try out camwhoring....I know i'm not cut from the same mould as the pretty bloggers, but hey, i'm already 30, if not camwhore now, when else rite?? When i'm 70? Twilight (years) will only be nice if Taylor Lautner's in it.

so here goes...

Me at home trying out different camwhore poses..

Just got back from the gym, so damp hair, bare face and a lot of wuliao ness...I was wearing a RM10 tee i got from Sg Wang.. Yup, on top of the wuliaoness, i have also tons of lianness....

And ta-da..me wearing my rabbit headband..

My fren pearly laughed when i showed her tis pic...so i'm really selfless in a way..cheering up your day by letting you laugh AT me!

Saint Crazy-Rabbit-Lady...:-DDDDDDD

Bridal diet recipe No. 3

Okay...you might think that my bridal diet recipes suck...like BIG time...but hey, i've lost something like 4kgs to date since June, so don't look down on my original bridal recipes okayyyyy..

Today's creation is Beehoon (Vermicelli) in TomYum with Egg and Sausage (i swear i only eat 1 sausage a week, even though they appear in allllll of my recipes. ok, maybe 2, definitely not more than 2)

The cooking preps and ingredients are soooo easy i can be even lazier and save me (and you) of typing (and reading) of the steps - just dump everything in and bring to a boil. Full stop.

The sausage was already half eaten when i remembered to share this great recipe with my blog readers, therefore the reason that the beloved sausage looks like a finger in one of CSI's episode.

Wait, on second look, there is also a resemblance to a pe............ nvm.....wouldn't want you all to get even more turned off...

After that great meal, please, do keep your sanity and indulge in a Ferrero or two...or 3, if you happen to have 3 like me...But warning: if you do, you will have to repeat bridal diet recipe No. 3 the next day...sans Ferrero..in order for the diet to work...



Good luck all...and may the sausage be with you...

Necklace

My fren Pearly asked me to check out a swarovski necklace and ring combo for her, so i went to pavilion, where they have a standalone boutique and another in parkson..

The salesgirl not only let me tried them on, but took a pic for me too...how nice!

The designs were divine and affordable to boot! The necklace retails for 445 and ring for 430. Gold plated with their white crystals..googoo gaa gaa nice!...

I'm all alone...

CY has gone to Bangkok for his fren's wedding and also his own bachelor party, and i'm stuck in hot n stuffy KL all by myself...all alone...single...with myself and only myself...hahaa, such a drama queen..

I want a bachelorette party too!! But none of my girl friends are up for clubbing and dancing anymore, they're stuck to their partners tighter than UHU glue. Buddy already has plans for the weekend, so i'm all but left alone..shucks...


I was supposed to go 'ba guan' with my col, but uh humm...it got cancelled...due to foreskin circumcision...i mean, unforeseen circumstances...darn....

Literal translation of 'ba guan' is pull the cup, also called 'cupping' ! this is what i'm talking about...

And the after effect is something like....

Looks quite ewwy and geli i know...but its traditional chinese treatment to expel excess 'wind' and to detoxify. Its been around since time immemorial..so must be good huh..my col janice went once and she said it felt soooo good afterwards even though it was also really painful when they pull out the cups.

For 1st timer they charge rm40, and subsequent treatment is 110-140 each time. My facial girl is also a regular, and she said its really addictive, if you stop going, your body will feel funny.. but for rm40, i'm game...

Anyway, no cupping this weekend..what else to do????

dejavoooo

Lately i noticed something funny, like, whenever i hear about a 'topic' which very seldom crops up, the same thing will be mentioned twice in the same day, by different people, in different discussions.

Example 1

During lunch with my cols, one of the 'mothers' said that her baby was sick the other day and she had to bring her baby to the clinic. Then the discussion shifted to immune shots given to mothers and babies, like rubella, rotavirus, etc....

Then the very same evening, my fren told me that his wife and him were having diarrhea and had to go to the hospital in the middle of the nite. Prior to that, they had already gone to 3 clinics before the correct diagnosis was given. They contracted Rotavirus....

Example 2

I was telling Annie thru IM that i wanna get a new eye cream, coz GongLi (aka Loreal Revitalift) made my eyes super puffy. And annie said that she's using Origins, coz its all natural and without parabens. So i asked, wats with parabens. Caused cancer in the long run.....okkkk...

That very same evening, i met my Kinokuniyan best fren Yili together with her gym fren in Pavilion for dinner. And this gym fren had just bought some toiletries from Caring and was telling me that she's obsessed with toothpaste and will try any new brands, and this new toothpaste that she bought is ...ta da...without parabens....

There...freaky aint it.

Okay, digressing slightly: One of the chain pharmacies in the country which is also green in color and rhymes with parkson is making a lot of boo-boos in pricing, so shop there often..i bought the biggest sized listerine (with free 250ml!) for 14.80! Normal price 17.90-19.90, promo price is usually 33.90 for 2 bottles. This happened at the jusco maluri branch. And lady-item that i buy which is normally 7.90 was 3.88! I stopped the cashier and made a dash to grab another. This happened at the pd branch. sooo..i'm convinced there's a nationwide system crash/server bug/staffing problem ...

hotties

I'm not a big fan of Taylor Swifft, coz i hated her performance in Valentine's Day, and also coz I'm on team Jacob!!

But Ms Swift is looking yummy these days! Check these pics out.....

Love the red beanie, and everything else....Ppl always dress better when they're in Europe..


Another of my faves...Ms Lively, yummy as usual..And check out those gams! wahlau...

And someone (surprisingly :-P) is looking great too these days...

Ms. Ozzie

Ms. Knightley is looking good too, with her newly cropped bob.

I didnt like her in Love actually and also bend it like beckham. Didnt really understood her allure, until i watched atonement. she really does have a magnetic presence on screen.

And last but not least, a dude...

Yes, rapper Common, for some reason i find him hot! hahahahah....

Wedding Preps

The wedding's slightly more than 2 months away now, and feels like there is sooo much thats not done. Yet, to name whats not done also i cant really put my chubby finger on it. Hmm...

But let's try though :-

1) House, renovating...contractor's ETC (expected time of completion) is mid Nov, our buffer is till end Nov. Furniture's half chosen. Paint colors still deciding...

2) Wedding Album... will be ready end of Oct. [for an update: rmb my fellow bridezilla? http://denisepupgeon.blogspot.com/2010/08/2-sides-of-everything.html. We went to her wedding last Saturday, and lo and behold (more like behear(d)), she had the same song that we had chosen to be put into the wedding photos' DVD! Swear i didnt know, and the song was chosen by CY..Placed an emergency call to the bridal house immediately after the wedding and luckily they're willing to change the song..phew..wouldn't want to have another episode, do we..haha]

3) Wedding gowns...booked a date end of the month to choose, another predicament, its on a weekday and my sis won't be around to help me choose, nor my close friends. I told CY that worst case scenario, he would have to go with me. Please lord, let me find a girl fren to go with!

4) Invitation cards...still pending the inserts from our restaurants before I can get the cards ready to be sent out. ETP - estimated time (for) posting is on the 1st of Nov. Having said that, i'm surprised that some of my so called friends have been giving me the runaround, evading to confirm whether they will come to wedding or not. And these are mainly men, thot men are supposed to be more decisive right? Yes or No or i'll let you know ASAP (to check whether my cousin's wedding/company dinner/father's 'bai dai sau' will be on the same date), not scurrying to 'Away' status whenever see me on messenger. Although baffled, its also funny seeing these ppl's reaction too..What can i say, some ppl are just not man enough...hehe yes i'm mean, but at least i've got more balls than them! :-PPPP

5) Still haven't gotten to wedding shoes, favors for jimuis, maybe favors for guests, pyjamas, food tasting, guests sitting, ...eeekkkk....think i need to go lie down (with my balls)......

Honeymoon Destination

For some lucky people.....is the gorgeous Cinque Terre in dreamy Italy!!

For the longest time i've wanted to visit this place which we didnt manage to visit when Adriane, buddy and i were on our European backpacking trip way back in 2005. Well, we were surviving on bread and youth hostels then, and this place is perhaps more suited for those with time and money and of coz, the honeymooners..

Check these pics out!!

Dreamy or wat??!!

I am still very keen to go, of course, if given the opportunity, but as time passed, i feel that there are other places i am more keen to visit, top of the list would be to visit my dearest and longest known friends, Adeline in LA and Ling in NY, both in the US of A. The distance and time required to travel there would need some serious logistics consideration, i suppose. Gimme some time guys, the renovation for the house and the upcoming wedding have taken up most of our Agungs (check your Ringgits) so the Rodeo Drive and the Statue of Liberty have gotta wait...

For honeymoon, we would really love to go to Mordor..(my precious!) ..uh humm, New Zealand. The landscape is just so breathtaking on its own, no fancy hotels, no infinity pools, no decorated sheeps needed. A good hike in the open space is just all that's needed for my man and mine's quality time. Hmmm......lovely....

So, where would be your No. 1 honeymoon destination?
