Jimmy 1 - Joyce 0
My dad frowned for a moment then smiled and asked "Have you showered?" Knowing very well she hasn't because she's still in her jeans.
"No, later la."
"Go shower now Joyce."
"Nope. I'm watching my show." Not taking her eyes off the screen.
Dad looked her her, blinked. In 3 seconds he yelled, "Lilllyyyyyyyyy (my mom), Joyce haven't taken her bathhhh."
Joyce sat up and stared at my dad wit her eyes wide open. We all know how my mom is about showers. You HAVE to shower. She makes you shower even if you've just showered.
My mom stood up from the dinner table and went "Joyce! Go and take your bath now! So dirty! How can you come home and sit down and not shower first! GO NOW!"
Joyce took her bag, stood up and shot my dad a dirty look while he looks on happily then grabbed the remote and switched it to Discovery.

Fye: Hahaha FDA tester la!

Mel: Nolah you're DBKL, everything also take.
Sigh. Happy Christmas!

Dumbo in Mambo.
That's Melissa next to me. She too hasn't been back in 2 years.
Bonnie and I. We've been friends since before she had braces. She hasn't been back to Malaysia for 2 years so imagine my joy seeing her again.
After having supper at Petaling Street some came over and we watched Rules of Attraction. Not a bad movie.
Highlight of my Christmas Eve.
We were to have dinner with my sister and her significant other tonight. Except he took her to Malacca early this morning so they might not make it back in time, either that or they will be really late. So Ham and I went out to the Sunway Fatman Steamboat outside of 7-11.
In conjunction with Christmas Eve, the uncle set up one of the pots with oil so that you can have your food fried! So cool! He only does it 4 times a year. Plus he was really nice too and fried your food for you himself because the rain was causing the oil to pop up quite a bit.
At first it was just Ham and I, then this two ladies came by. He told us that if the fried food wasn't good we didn't need to pay! He continued to tell us that he himself can eat 10 sticks of fried foo chuk, easily! One of the ladies had some fried stuff and when the uncle asked her if it was good she said "I wanted to lie and say it wasn't good so I can have it for free hehe. But it's really good."
Everyone was laughing and talking when two indian dudes came by. They were obviously regulars. The uncle promoted his fried food and said to them "If not good no need to pay!" The indian dude replied "Eh don't la like that!" and under those circumstances I found that phrase really funny and couldn't stop laughing into my fish balls.
The uncle professed "I not bluffing! My business ah, I won't bluff one. Banks can bluff, insurance can bluff. Food cannot bluff one, not good."
Such a nice guy I tell you! The atmosphere was warm and fuzzy despite the rain. Everyone laughing and joking with each other. It was at this exact moment I felt the Christmas spirit fuzz within my belly.
Steak Pt 3
Wah their black pepper sauce is out of this world. I was literally salivating WHILE eating my steak. Soooo freaking good.
Today is Joyce's birthday and because I'm such a fantastic sister, Ham and I are taking her and her boyfriend to Cowboy for steaks. I bought 2 bottles of our favourite Eva sparkling juice and Ham got some red wine for him and Voonz.
I've stopped drinking alcohol completely. For the past year I drink it in clubs and bars because well everyone has bottles and bla so it's easier to just drink whats there. But I don't like the taste at all. Plus it doesn't give me "a goos buzz". So I thought, and as Elle has said, what's the point of drinking something you don't like?
Since my parents are always making us girls drink Cranberry juice. So when I'm out late at a club or a bar I compensate my parents by being a good girl and drinking Cranberry juice all through the night. Yum.

Muh Steakkkk..
Then we thought why not see if Bonnie's free. She hasnt been back in 2 years and doesn't have a handphone. Her family moved and the new home number she gave us was wrong somehow o.O
"All this just for your steak Stel!" Bonnie.I'd be damned if its closed.
As we got there we drove past and Ham joked that it was closed. Very funny, HAHA.
We parked and walked toward the place.

Most of the usual suspects @ Zoukout 2006
Andrea and Cameron rushing to party! Teehee.
The Awesome Twosome chilling on the beach.
Elle and Laboo :D
Uhm, party favors? Hehehehehehhe.
Joachim and Shorty.
Mervin and Fatty.
Me with Mr. Loh and Mr Fitness.
Nutcases.
Then Jordan's other phone went missing when the phone that he had rang. So i said "Eh your phone calling you ler"
Okay we ended up at McDs at 15. I damn respect Jordang because instead of using the tiny plastic plates for ketchup he used the drink cover hahahahhahha. Imagine the drink cover overflowing with ketchup hahaha. So Jo was telling this story about her friends who just had their first child, and how the husband was so irritated at their baby because he kept crying every night that he wanted to throw it over the balcony. So obviously i said "Wah thats damn shit wei."
Then Fye said that when he has his baby and if the baby doesn't want to drink milk. He would pour milk powder into the baby's mouth, then pour hot water inside and then shake the baby hard hard and then punch the baby in the face so that the baby would swallow it.
Everyone was laughing hard but i didn't find it funny. Until I said "Thats why your face like that la!"
Hmph. Shows him right for telling stupid stories about boiling babies in oil.

Beef.
For the past hour its been..
Me: Babeeeee I want steakkkkk
Ham: Come eat my steak la
Me: WTF I want the black pepper medium rare one.
Fye: Eat yourself la. Beef Chop.
Then I texted Rachel telling her I want specifically, Suzy's Corner Ampang's steak.
Then Pek San also.
But nobody layan you know!!!
If it was Rachel or Melanie who wanted to eat something badly everyone would fly to get them there bvut if its me, NO. Just let her rot here. Let her saliva infest her keyboard while she angrily dreams about her steak.
Please la.. Do I ask for a lot? Do i get huffy and puffy if i really want something? I let it slide okay! I eat what everyone wants to eat okay! Today I want to have steak hou mou! Wahlauehhhhh. Last week went to Chandelier the steak damn yuck, now I wanna have cheap but better steak in Suzy's cannot?!
Ham and Fye are happily taking turns playing Dota while the other plays cheerleader from behind. Every 15 seconds I'd say "Wey..I really want to eat steak one lor..."
"La, you wanted that since just now."
"I wanna eat steak leh..."
*silence* *keyboard tapping* *triple killll*
Damn tulan you know!
"I bet ar if i was one of those skinny skinny girls that can't eat much and then say wanna eat steak everyone will hump through hoops to get me steak. In fact it would be a fucking field trip! We'd turn it into some WWF charity event! BUT because I'm a fucking fatso nobody gives a shit if i want to have steak!"
*silence*
Then Fye pipes up. "It's true lor.."

On friendship elevated.
It's funny how in some actions you can experience words.
This was our trip to Malacca. The full album is here.
Rachel said something to me on friendship a while back and I remember it word for word.
"It's about leaning on each other when we have a problem, appreciating that we've got someone who gives a shit and knowing that while you aren't being very sane, they still put up with you and next time you'll do the same for them."
She's not being very sane in some of the pictures but as you can see I put up with her insanity while she puts up with mine.
We R Bakers.
So Rachel, Mun Fye and Pek San is back. Everyday I get to see all or at least two of them. Life is good.
Until Rachel tries to bake.
Yankee (in the middle) graduated the Cordon Bleu in Sydney a couple of years back. That guy Loong is one of his current students. Rachel just there to cari pasal.
Hehe *flap flap flap*
Squeeze! The orange.. :P Lamamity points please.
I is baker! Hardly la its a chilled cheesecake haha.
Yankee's toolbox, damn cool!
Boiling the orange juice with sugar.
She not only has her head in the clouds, she got them in her hands.
Looks like heaven right. Nice fridge.
Arthur thats a cake, not a Cornetto ice-cream cone thing.
Yummy yummy cheesecake!

Congratulations!!
She just gave birth to the beautiful Aaliyah on the 29th of November last month.
Throughout her pregnancy she kept repeating how much she missed dancing and couldn't wait to get back onto the dance floor. It was super adorable how she still dressed hip hop styles during her pregnancy.
I can only imagine all the rhythm beating through Aaliyah's veins since music is so rich in both her parents' blood. I'll be visiting baby Aaliyah soon!

Lalalala
We're on MSN and he's turned his webcam on. Showing me the glory of the greens in Melbourne. Sticky sticky yooo!
I hate him. I remember when he fell and broke his ankle.
That was the happiest day of my life.

Good Morning!
I got home at 12pm and after more than 24 hours of doing this and that and singing the same song I thought I'd be tired but I was still buzzing so I played Jenga with Esther and kicked her butt :P Then I turned the TV on and this movie called Sometimes in April had just started. It had me at "a hundred days of slaughter in Rwanda". The 94' genocide in Rwanda. Obviously I watched it to the end. I have no willpower.
Then I trudged hehe upstairs and slept. That was at approximately 7pm.
I dreamt of poverty, specifically about starvation. Actually I dreamt about food in the end.
I also dreamt about boy/girl love. About being on the roof of a tall building watching fireworks with fifty other girls and every one of them but me had a cute balloon tied to the railing from some shithead who is only gonna break their hearts into teeny little pieces and then throw gasoline over it and light happy matches. But it didn't feel like this at the time. In the dream those girls were probably gonna be loved forever even though we yup we were all about twelve.
Right before I woke up I dreamt about 800,000 dead bodies in 100 days. What if it happened again and is closer to home? 1994 is not too many years behind. It's recent. Have we learnt nothing in 50 years? How can there be ideologies like this in the 90s. Genocide. I feel sick.

My Big Mouth
*Whee food poisoning from that Ikan Bakar. Joyce was lucky before right after the below supper with my dad she came home and puked everything out right down to the Baskins ice cream out into the longkang outside. Daddy had a sore throat so he couldn't have that damn fish either :(
Tyler and Eve came over the next day for Eve to rediscover her inner child and when they were walking in i sadly said "I can't eat.."
Tyler "YOU can't eat??"
It's been three days. I still can't really eat.
I suppose its a good thing? :(
But i am damn sad lor.

Makan makan
In fact just an hour ago while Joyce and I were having supper with my dad, we were having the Ikan Bakar last and my dad couldn't have any because he's got the sore throat. Suddenly he asked, "Is it still hot?" "No." "Can hold with fingers?" "Can la" We told him it wasn't and he should try some (we tried a new stall, not bad). Then he said "Then pick it up and eat it while walking to the car, it's getting warm here I'm sweating." I tell you ar...father like this...we LOVE!
So after midnight I'll usually have a slice of cake that's in the fridge or whatever other goodies they have there. Then around 2am Joyce and I would get hungry again and we'll have instant noodles or half boiled eggs about 3 each.
After this holidays its back to Beached-Whale-Stel!

Uhm..
I am uncomfortable taking pictures most times. I feel really awkward in front of a camera. In my teenage years I hated the camera. These days, I enjoy taking pictures with my friends but I can't take pictures when its me alone. That's why when I need a picture of me by myself there's a grand total of maybe 6 out of 34728524.
Like this haircut. For the first time ever, a haircut of mine doesn't suck! In fact I like it. Happened in 5 snips and I'm done. So i don't know why but i wanted a picture of it la. And i was so uncomfortable facing the camera. Joyce was laughing so i snatched the camera from her and tried to take a photo myself. Wahlau so one-kind one. Hahaha.

Wedding pictures!
Whee, the bride damn kau pretty lor. This was in the bride's room before the guys came. Left to right, that's Yean in the yellow top, Jimmy the hairliist, Azuree is rasta colors, Lalang Eve next to the bride, Andrea the bridesmaid behind the bride, uhm the makeup artist, Maryann and ME! Eh! Where's Ivan??
The delightful 'torture kit'. Nescafe, condensed milk, crackers with wasabi and cili padi (i said crackers!! hahahaha) and of course, the waxing strips.
Eve, Stel and Ivan. We look nice and calm but at this point we were actually already getting real excited at the prospect of watching the *ahem dicks go through what we had planned.
KMKS with the Lohs.
In the hotel room before the wedding. I like that expression I have, try zoom in and see :P That's Jung's back!
At the reception area with BlogLittle, Bloggila and BabyBloggila (of late)
Uncle Remy Loh and Christine before they crooned Endless Love.
That'll all for today folks! More next time when Elle gets the professional shots from the photographer. Not that Eve isnt professional :P
Baby Bloggila
Dunno why.
So Armin turned out alright. Thanks to Ivan we walked in without spending a cent and getting free drinks all night. Yay. At first the crowd was getting to me and Rachel was getting sick from the smoke. So we drank and ate at Terrace Bar. Then we went in, after a while it was pretty alright just sitting at the stadium stairs watching our significant others enjoying themselves (*shuffling o.O) They haven't done this shuffling thing in a while. Haha rusty. But i somehow love watching Ham when he does.
Saw Mervin and Joachim there too. It was weird seeing Joachim in public, usually its in a home or a hotel room. EH DAMN SALAH. As in erm cause we chill out as usual suspects in KMKS ma.
Before the four of us went in we were having drinks at Terrace Bar when Arthur pointed out a shirt this guy was wearing that said something along the lines of "If you catch me listening to pop, please cut my balls off" Which i thought, if you were to wear a shirt that said that, you're probably someone who is extremely passionate about music.
Then I started la my banging. If you love music you'd love it regardless of whether its popular or not. Pop does mean popular music. I mean i'm not a pop person Top40 and all that but Guns and Roses was Pop once, so was other great bands i love. The Killers, Pop also (although the latest album fell short of my expectations). So if the music you love turns into Pop you're not gonna love it anymore? Fucking contradictory. Rachel started fanning me because she knew i could go on and on.
Yeah i know i get upset when certain band i love is suddenly big in Malaysia and that's not very supportive of me. But thats only because once they get that big, their music will sell out and will start to change to suit popular taste. So usually by the 3rd album it goes down the drain for some good bands. But i still love their music, i still regard them as great muisicians. Hm heh okay enough.
Anyway, we wanted to join Aran and Andre in Velvet but didn't want to walk in and out through the crowd. When people's sweat rub off on your arm and face when you need to get to somewhere, you don't want to get anywhere.
We are going to Malacca today. All of us woke up later than we should so actually.. we're not sure if we are going. But I am craving for Assam Laksa! And Su Ann gave me a bunch of food places we should go to and I really wanna makan makan makan.

Wednesday Adams
Damn pei. Just woke up quite hyper.
Kim is working but i still wanna kacau her on MSN. Flooding her with random msgs.
Since she starting working we hardly get to see her :(
We are unsuccessfully trying to get her to join Miss Malaysia World or Universe.
Looking at the previous contestants, Kim is a sure win!
Darling please come home soon. I'm not in the habit of bitching but with you it comes naturally and i hate it admit it but i enjoy it! Without you there is an empty void! Eh that's redundant. A void IS empty. Wah still woozy. Gotta go! Or if i wanna be trendy i should say, gotta bounce peeps! HAHAHAH damn sohai.
Erm OKTHANKSBYE!
