How Did We Grew Apart

I am sure I am not the only guilty one. You have close friends in school and along the way, you grew apart. Most went to start a family of their own. And as you live, your old friends will become reunion friends. And the amount of time you spend in the office makes you closer to your colleagues. So I got to know an acquaintance lately, an almost stranger. We were going somewhere together and during the journey, I remember me telling him this. So I have this friend, we grew up in a town and we came to this city and we have grown roots here and for the longest time, we are in the same city but we do not talk or see each other. But you and me, who are almost strangers, we talk almost every other day and we go out to do things. How did this happen?

Jalan-Jalan Bagi Makan

And that is the bumper sticker at the side of my back car window now. I joined this little group of street feeders recently for all the wrong reasons. What they do, they go out to the streets and feed the homeless. What I like is that one of their main objectives, they are trying to get people off the streets, especially the youths who are still strong and able to work. They engage and try to talk people out of the streets. Well, I must say the success rate as expected to be low but you know what they say, if you can save one, you have saved one. While I was doing this, I was really amazed with the good people I see and meet who really want to do good. Most of them have a day job, they come out at night in the middle of the work week and do this. And it doesn't hurt along the way, you get to collect more stories to tell. http://www.streetfeeders.com/ In the spirit of being hopeful.

My New Orchids

This morning I woke up and feeling restless. Not being able to binge on junk food is really stressing me out. So I decided to go out to the nursery and got these! Carpet and orchids to decorate the front door. I wanted to feel homey when I reached the door after long dog days. I am quite happy how it had turned out and I am sure it will get crowded soon. And I am telling you, home deco is really an expensive past time. But I am loving it.

Quiet Sunday

On this quiet Sunday, I got up and switched on the TV. Kitchen Nightmares was showing and boy do I love Gordon Ramsay. He is like everything I want in a man. Wrinkly. Rough and tough. Yet sweet and loving. Intelligent. Caring. And being successful, of course, does not hurt. I cooked brunch. Kueh teow soup, nothing fancy. But the garlic chilli lime sauce made the difference. And when I was done, I colored my hair. This time like most times, I am still on violet and burgundy. Since I am on it, might as well I do my face with my loyal blue corn. I just love this blue corn mask from Body Shop. It removes your black heads and all the dirt you can find in your pores. Smells great too! When the hair went violety burgundy and the face is dirt free, I did my manicure. Chilli red. Not bitchy like the dark maroon I had yesterday. Chilli red always bring up a little of flirtiness. And of course, I watched a few episodes of The Americans - I am reaching the season finale soon and i

This Thursday

So today is Raya Day 2. It was a lunch date gone wrong with the girls. So I ended up browsing around the mall and unlike the ol' days I now have purchasing power. So I came across this young boy started up his soap line. Since we are also attempting to start our own line, in support of local entrepreneurs, I got these lovelies for myself. I even took the trouble to take this pic prettily to post in Instagram. And it does not hurt that the products smelled orgasmic =}

The Americans

So this is my latest obsession. The Americans. Not that I approve all the innocent killings for the greater good but like most girly fans, it is the loooooveeee.... How two strangers came together. Gone through the thickest and thinnest. And grow to love each other so much over a period of time. Like a hopeless romantic. And because they love each other so much, sometimes the most little wrong things will hurt so much too. Aaahhh.... what life is meant to be.
