Got a forwarded email titled:
'office scandal'
And I thought it would be a sort of video... maybe like the one I had received months ago from someone showing a true-life-caught-on-video-camera...
But truth be known it is something unexpected altogether.. HeheHe
ThiS I would rate X heHEhe
sO those under the age of 18 please go browse another site now!
It was So funny I just had to paste it on here..
It went like this... heHe
Johnny wanted to have sex with a girl in his office,but she
belonged to someone else...
One day, Johnny got so frustrated that he went up to her and said,
"I'll give you $100 if you let me screw you."
But the girl said "NO!!"
Johnny said, "I'll be fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend
down, and I'll be finished by the time you pick it up. "
She thought for a moment and said that she would have to consult her boyfriend...
So she called her boyfriend and told him the story.
Her boyfriend says, "Ask him for $200, pick up the money very fast,
he won't even be able to get his pants down."
So she agrees and accepts the proposal. Half an hour goes by, and
the boyfriend is waiting for his girlfriend to call. Finally, after 45
minutes, the boyfriend calls and asks what happened.
She responded,"The bastard used coins!"
Management lesson:
Always consider a business proposal in its entirety before
agreeing to it and getting screwed!
HaHahahHahahHa
AddiCted tO arT
Hands Up foR thoSe who are an absolute wacK for Art?
I got this from those shops that are fast becoming the k-mart of Brunei known as the 'Kadai $1.80'
This framed photo is a bargain! Priced at only Le$$ than B$4
But don't you ever get baffled when you go to these shops and there's nothing that's tagged $1.80??!!
Hahahah
So one time I had entered a $2.99 shop and I asked the sale's guy how much the particular item I'd picked up costs and guess what he said "ummm $2.99"
I picked up another item and asked him again... "how much is this one then?"
(I'm not thick or anything... the stuff hadn't any price tags on them!!!)
So the guy gave me a look and simply said in a crooked almost patronising smile...."that's $2.99 too... uhhh all you see here are priced at $2.99"
I could strangle him... But ofcourse I didn't... Smart A$$!!
So I simply explained to him nicely what I said earlier in this post... HahahahHa
tHe nExt PiCasO...
Hmmm... I'm just thinking out Loud...
But have you ever thought once or mayb often...
If you aren't doing what you are doing now (for working people)...
Then... what would you be doing?...
Do you think I could pass off as an artist?!
Take a Look at this MasteRpiEce of mine...
and Judge me As Bluntly As you would...
HahhahaHaHah I'm kidding!!
I was bored and there were a few things lying around...
so I just rearranged them and WaLLahhhhh!!
So.. ummmm will i ever be the next picaso?!
HAhahahHa

Mom gave Us a treat in a restaurant somewhere in the universe... After the family lunch...
So there I was sitting in the car bugging my brother, Daddy driving and talking to mom...
(hey I'm mummy's and daddy's golden girl... what're you gonna do?!)
When ahoyyy comes a text message...
"You're in the Newspaper!!"
Immagine my surpise and slight umm... burst of I'm-Famous!! adrenalin..
(Nothing glamorous ever happens to me so its a BIG thing to be captured in a LOCAL newspaper...)
"Dad!!!! stop by that tuck shop!" *finger irritatingly pointing towars the shop*
My five-seconds of fame...
Immagine the size of a one dollar bill... folded once... and again... and again... and again. That's how big the pic was... And how in the blooming heck could anyone tell that that was me?!
HahaHAhahah...
But thank you for the person who texted me... mwahs!

fOod gLoRiouS fOOd
But I have not come across one that actually explained how it works.
To thoSe who don't know better...
This Is the Signature diSh of Brunei..
I'll explain as we go along kays :)
this is called 'belutak'(pronounced BE-LOO-TUCK)
and this.. 'Lauk beguring'
(La-hook Ba-Goo-Ring)
hahHaha it's just fried fish!
'KangKong Belacan'
(South East Asian version of Salad?! haHAh)
ok ok what makes it all come together is this...
Simply take a bit of the main dish called the 'ambuyat' in the top most picture shown above..
Using a contraption called the 'Chandas' (it looks like a rough version of chopsticks but one end of it is linked) as shown below:
Now all you have to do is.....
Dip it in the 'cacah' and just let it glide down your throat... yummmm
CAUTION: dont eat it too hot or you will.. I repeat... you WILL burn your gullet!
Eat the condiments in between eating the main dish.
I would advise you to have a guide to show and teach you how it's done.
Have a try next time you're in Brunei :D

BusTed!
The family decided to get some grub down the usual place..
Dum.. dum.. dUm... *drum rolls*
I don't usually do this BUT you just had to be there!!
My trademark expression for it?!
"CuteeeEEe!!!!"
You know how the men in the family always try and hide away from being discovered with the girlfriend... when it is a love that's just blossoming.. HAhHAha that sounds laMeee.....
(I'm sure you all have you own experiences in this heHe)
So there we were heading for our table when we spotted Le Cousin with his *Ehem*
He looked really flabbergasted! haHAha... Poor guy...
I'm sure his face was bright red... heHEhe...
But he came over to our table and 'SaLam' the parents
aHoy MateysS
Hmm.... Cinematography was absolutely superb!
Johnny Depp was hillarious, Kiera Knightley looked gorgeous even in ragS!
( Don't you wish your girlfriend was Hot Like her~~)
heHehe...
HoweVer... Somewhat Dissapointing...
The movie on the whole I'd say was good, but the first two of the trilogy was better..
Too many twist N turnS in terms of plots... It confuses the viewers.. Myself included. The humour was great cos most of the time you dont see it coming.. and you just burst out laughing. Try to lessen any in-the-moment drinking of any liquids.
(I assure you having water spraying out of the nose or mouth is NOT sexy)
Word of advise... Don't watch the late night show esPecially when you've had a long day!
I didn't manage to get tickets for earlier showing and weLL... DriftEd off a few times during the movie... *ShOcKer!*
All in all it is worth watching... I mean c'mon...
Johnny Depp's presence in the movie itself is reason enough ;)
For the men.. hey Keira Knightley?! Hello?!
WahahaHAha
PuT.. pUt... pUt...
Get Three hoLes in oNe and yOu Win a Car!!!!!
It was whilst I was waiting for the 'bouncers' to open up the doors to the movie theater that I stumbled upon an Advert... I wasn't quite sure in conjuction of what this was organised by the staff of Empire Cinema... Basically you get to put (pronounced puttt, its a golf terminology.. ) a golf ball on a less than modest miniature version of a golf course... heHe... I'm nasty today...
so if you get three consecutive holes in one you win a SuZuKi SwiFt.
Terms and conditions were a blur I couldn't read it from where I was sitting but I think (dont take my word for it) it ends on the 25th... HahaHa... wOOooppSs that was yesterday wasn't it?! Owh weLL... betTer Luck next time... he heHe
It's almost to the point of inexistance ;D
Hmmm sounds like what a reporter would say... *Ahaks!*
mY woRst NiGhtMaRe...
It ain't a nice feeling...
You get sick in the stomach just reading about it...
It felt like an insult...
Maybe I should think of it more of a "wHat dOesn'T KiLL yOu MakeS yOu sTronGer"
Swallow the pride and take it gracefully...
yeA... I can do that...
NOT!
(AAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaarrrRRRRRRGGGgggggHHHhhhh!!!!!!!!!)

A HaPpy sToRy....
She has had a Very Hard life growing up... And she came out of it I wouldn't say unscathed.. But stronger, more determined than ever. With all that she has gone through, it is amazing that she kept it all together and didn't let the misfortune that's been handed to her by fate dictate her life. Now a success in many ways, we can all aspire to be more like this amazing girl. Mimi Rahzia... Model.. Actress... and all that she wants to be :)

Though I had a hard time convincing myself to thinking Jack Black could pass off as a serious character in a movie.. He plays better as a funnyMan...
However Kate manages to tie things together and made Jack Black's character easier to accept.
Kate Winslet played a winning performance... She is in another league altogether. Never noticed her talents nor have I watched much movies with her in it...
But now I am awed at how well she played her character... Flawless!
aBsolute respect for her acting skills..
CeLeBs tHeSe DayS
Remember the times wHen movies were made to genuinely sweep people off their feet... It takes you away and you become so immersed with the film that you could actually feel that you are there with them... feeling the emotions they go through... laughing with them (instead of at them) for the silly funny little things that they laugh to...
thoSe were the days when romance was sweet and innocent
(as opposed to what it is nowadays: scandal and s3x!!! )
Society have become more tolerant of indecent exposure and extreme public show of affection (by this I mean kissing and even groping in public!)
When I was a little girl...
**Flashback**
OoPpsS not that far back in time!
But back in the days when i was little... holding hands was rated X!!!
I'd be blushing away when I see couples holding hands...
Gosh those were innocent years...
Television is now tainted with Celebs who aren't what they use to be....
Before: Icons whom we adore and cherish
(remember Clark Gable and Vivian Leigh?... does 'Gone with the wind' ring any bells?..)
Now: Victims of gossip and easy money for the cold-hearted
(Admit it! you bought that because the title read 'BRITNEY GONE WILD')
Just look at her... once a pop idol
Now... her private life is public domain...
I'm seriously thingking of becoming a fashion designer... Just look at what the celebs are wearing these days... dont need much meterial for that... less material means less capital to start up the business... and since its Couture... I can charge them as much as I want and they'll still crave for more... (because these days LesS is mOrE!)

“My Cat is suffering from an unknown disease.. the vets couldn’t find a cure…

(For added eFfect maKe suRe you have a concerned look on your face)
“It’s iNterNet Day, iTs really big in Europe”

A bReAktHroUgH?!
caught my eye...
And what not with the super crazed society of ours in the never-ending battle to lose weight...
I'm thinking....
Reasons why people want to lose weight:
(Ok Ok first off..I'll try not to make an essay out of this heHe..)
Its basically to look Good right?!
The reasoning:
Being the right shape (i.e. being amongst the norm)
makes you feel Good ! Thus feeling Good Makes you look Good!
It IS all about confidence babey! hahaHAha
(I am 99.99% sure of this)
But there is a few people out there who REALLY are genuinely comfortable with their weight no matter how heavy or light they are..... to these people you have my salutations and utter respect!
Anyho.. I'm still reading the article from the shown picture and I shall get back to you all on that :D heHe...
Wow... this is kinna exciting isn't it?! HAhah
Not!
