Sketchbook

Am looking at my 2004 sketchbook right now. Kicked off the sketcbook with a hospital bill. "Wowwie. What a way to start a new sketch book! Notice I was in the hospital because of that. DIVISION ADHESION CONJUNCTIVA. Classic example of how hilarious a single girl in a city could be" My first namecard. First permanent job. "My first perm job. Didn't even last for 4 months! Classic example of a screwed up organisation & office politics! Eeyuck!" My first parking saman receipt @ RM70 in Bangsar. "Wow, am such an adult now. Not only I have a car, I've a saman too =)" A bedsheet receipt from Ausino. "Fell in love with this bedsheet. Billed it to Mr. Chew-Proforma =)" Halter top receipt from Bodyglove. "Dunno where is the gloves receipt. Omilord - I've finally determined to return to the driving range!" Dinner receipt with Shaun. "One phrase. "Silly girl, go back to sleep." One pout =(" 3 movie tickets stubs

Randomly Bothered

Things have been taking quite a few turns lately. Something career related. Something family oriented. Something personal. While I was driving home and composing this blog in my head, I find myself so unfocused. I find myself saying "Tutu, you take pride in your capability of putting others in front of you. Why are you doing this to hurt people?" I find myself saying "Tutu, you take pride in your simplicity. That is why you are being adored." And that somehow reminded me of Gary. Gary, love is simple. My colleague said something to me today. She said, "I've never met somebody as beautiful as you. The kindness and the chirpiness." I am hearing another friend telling me, "You just need to find someone who is able to hold your interest, isn't it?" I am hearing my boss telling me, "Never let your work to be jaded. Be excited everytime." And today while I was composing an email to rectify an issue, I find myself so jaded. I come home

Haircut

Image
I went into the saloon around 8pm at night after a traumatising day. I told the stylist I want my hair cut. Needless to say, just like the previous 3 stylists, he refused to cut my hair. Ow Ow Stylist: Your hair will go pong-pong wan... Determined Me: I don't care I want to cut my hair. Ow Ow Stylist: Make sure you won't regret wor... You know your hair ah... so thick and long so nice bla bla bla... Not-Listening Me: Look, there is this place in IKANO that cuts hair for 12 bucks for 10 mins. They are not going to query me there. So either I screw up hair there or you are going to minimize the damage here. Ow Ow Stylist: I will do my best. Happier Me: Goooood >.< This is how I look like when I just come out from the shower. Hair is flat. And this is how I look like when the hair is dry and it goes pong-pong. I don't care. I still look sweet and lovely. Bleah >.<

Ranging

I started golfing when I was in my teens. Was never good in the game. Fact is, I suck in it. But I like the game nevertheless. Golf is the one and only game that I can understand the most. The rules and regulations. The score. The people in it. 3 weeks back I went back to the driving range. After missing in action for near 10 years. Needless to say I still suck at it. But it doesn't really matter. Because the game itself entertained my Saturday afternoon =)

Steamboat

Image
Hello. My name is Tutu Ku. And I am a Steamboat-holic. There was one time I burnt my tongue because of steamboat. And doctor orders is to keep away from one month. Yeah, it was that serious. I've never fancy fried or oily food. I love my food wet. So needless to say, anything soupy is in my favour. Including steamboat. Steamboat is a therapeutic meal. Instead of having the food served for you and eat away, you need to take the effort to cook it in boiling soup. Best for blindates I reckon. If your date is a good one, then great. If not, you can concentrate cooking the food =) There is this steamboat in Cheras that I just dig. A hint of alcohol in the soup, along with the fried wanton, it's orgasmic. This one was taken steamboating wtih May Yee and Pui Yee. Wonderful people from Cheras. Then there is this new place that I tried nearby my place. Shabu-shabu. Japanese style. Each person has an individual pot to cook in. Something like the one me and KwokSan went to in Pantai (but

Benjamin Ng

This is the story about Ben. Ben is someone that I had an imagination relationship with, as one bird would remind me. And traumatised me for 2 years. I don't care, I am the victim here (!!) Bleah >.< Met Ben in a Christian fellowship in my church when I was 18. Or was it 17. I have never quite notice his existence cause I am a quiet person in church who doesn't care much about my surroundings, let alone the people. Yes, I am still the quiet mousy one in church. Bleah >.< Until one day, I am not so sure why, I had a dream about Ben. He came to my dream, without any warning and proposed to me. He knelt down before me and gave me a Rolex ring. Don't ask me what is a Rolex Ring, it's a band with a simple 0.2 carat diamond within the band, and in the inner side of the band was engraved a rolex mark, hence the Rolex Ring. I woke up from the dream, and I've never look at Ben the same again. I started to pay a little more attention to Ben and I've noticed th

Long Lost

It has been quite some time already that I don't have that feeling inside me. Though there is no doubt, it's all wrong. A bird said something to me that directly hit on the spot. Hole-In-One. I am not confused. I am just contradicting. Or was it. Anyway, the bird said, the heart says yes and the head is screaming no. So I have a conflict to follow the heart or the head. Hummm.... seriously, it sounded so much nicer in the email hahaha... cacat. ++edit++ The original email... "You’re not confused. You’re conflicted. The head says no. The heart says yes. Now, to listen to the head or the heart? You know the head is always right. But can you ignore your heart and follow your head?" ++edit++ Anyway... Am trying to keep things in control. Trying. Because the heart is weak. And the head is not strong enough.
