Jual Mahal.

0 comments

Inflation is a definite happening. I am really cheesed off by the prices these kopitiams increase even though the rise in flour has absolutely no deal with them. A bowl of beehoon soup used to cost RM4. During the last holiday, they increased the price by 50 cents, then RM5. Within a couple of months, i ordered beehoon soup with some extra meatball, it costs me RM6!!! What the f*ck!!!

And so I questioned the fat auntie "Why increase price again oh?" "Aiya...flour increase price d mah." "Aiya, Miss ah, everyone also increase price already lor."

So..every kopitiam increases their prices regardless of whether they use flour. The best part is these hawkers increase their prices per bowl, conclusively, they make higher profit margins than before the price increase. Truly daylight robbery.

Everything has gone up, people. I think its more worthwhile to DIY based on Nigella's fattening recipes.

Facebook craze [again].

0 comments

I came back with something new to show to mummy this time. It was Friendster a few years back. Now, my mummy got to see the wonders of Facebook. She even fed my Joey [big-headed turtle] too.

But, despite the interesting applications that you can play on Facebook and the old friends that you can reconnect with and the unlimited storage of pictures you can display or Facebook was founded by the Harvards,[so what?] I have to admit to my friends that our bonding is starting to take up too much of my time. [not mentioning I got scolded by mummy for wasting too much time] I feel obliged to throw a sheep back at my friends or paste something on their superwall just to make sure i don't get anyone neglected. I just have to do it to make them think I'm not ignoring them.

and Its just weird that sometimes I am closer to some friends on Facebook than during the hangouts which we do not converse much. Come to think of it, these sites like Friendster, Myspace, Facebook are not merely just to connect and reconnect with your friends, but it is more of a platform for self-branding. Showing your best posed or retouched photos for example.

So, I am not going to care about your monkey and poke me no more. [just kidding]

5 year old Elaine made my day when she suddenly passed me a note.

"SELINA, I LOVE YOU. ELAINE"

Aaww..

Sweet Home Sabah

0 comments

or spicy home? when

daddy claimed that he accidentally deleted my MTV package. No more StarWorld channel, no more MTV, no more E!, no more CARTOON NETWORK!

baby brother who turned 17 this year got to drive most of the time. [I haven't driven in months!]

the whole family has to fight to watch their favourite channel [almost everyday].

I cannot even get my baby nap because the neighbour decides to start their house renovation on the day I just got back which involves drilling the whole house down that could drive you nuts.

the sky decides to cry everyday.

Nevertheless, home is still sweet as long as I have my blankie with me.

Happy Birthday

to me who spent her whole day doing last minute studying [again] and the best birthday feast that she had for the day was Mc Donald's chicken burger.

[Thank you] to those who got me presents, lunch at Subway, SMS-es, late night phone calls, e-mails, Facebook & Friendster messages.
