random post again...

It is so cold today! My hands and feet are as cold as ICE! THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE DAY MAN! I didn't even see the sun! Guess it's global warming... Hah!

Two days back, Uncle Mano called me up for lunch and I drove over to his place. Met up with him and he introduced me to his long time friend, Renee. She was an artist by profession and a healer too. She told me that she does a lot of healing back in Kuala Kubu Bharu.

I was amazed. I mean, my new found friend is an artist and also a healer! HOW COOL IS THAT?!

Okay. Back to where I was, uncle Mano took me to what he called "Mother In-Law's Place" in Brickfields and I tell you, the food was fantastic man! I CAN'T WAIT TO GO THERE AGAIN TOMORROW! Oh yes, another thing was that I can't seem to take my eyes of Renee's earring which is the EYE OF HORUS.

According to her, she said it is a protection symbol where it can protect anything and thought me how to do the Eye of Horus sign with my hands. It was pretty amazing I tell you, to get to know this kinda people and getting to learn things like these.

Her earrings looked something like this.



Anyways, as usual, uncle Mano had to give me half of his rasam because he know that I love it and the rasam was GOOOOOOOOODDDD!!!!! Thank you uncle Mano!! *SLURP*

When back to his house and chat for a while with the both of them before Renee went back to KKB, and uncle Mano gave me some of her paintings in postcards form and told me that one of her painting was sold for more than RM10,000. Geezzz... By the way, her paintings were all abstract.

And yesterday, we bumped onto Angela and uncle Mano again in Vishal for dinner and Angela told us that she is going to finalize her plans to South America which will cost about RM10k if I'm not wrong. Places that she will be going is Brazil, Chile, and Rio de Janeiro. And she will be on the tip of  Antarctica but she said that she didn't want to make it there because of the fare. It's about USD 2,000 and that is the cheapest.

Ahhhh....

How I wish....

YAY!!! MY SHEEP!!!

IS IN THE BACKGROUND DEEE!!!!


WHEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Updatess

Finally I feel like updating...


HAH! Have been very sluggish these days mostly due to the weather. Yes! BLAME IT ON THE WEATHER!!!


So, the interview with Allianz on Monday was superb! I was praised by my "FUTURE" employer man! LOL! It was the best interview ever! Maybe because it's a MNC company. Or maybe they are trained to do so... I don't know but one thing I know for sure is that I AM DYING TO WORK WITH THEM!!


Firstly, the benefits, 2 months contractual bonus, might get the opportunity to go to other Allianz worldwide. And if I were to study in UK next time for my masters, I can actually asked to be transferred there too! I mean like, come on man! Which company offers such a thing?


Well, hopefully I'll get another call for the second interview and this time will be with the CEO, Mr. Alexander Ankel. I'm so dying to meet him in person! ARRRGGHHHH!!!!


Please please please call me ALLIANZ!!!


Oh yes, another thing. Today I was called by a recruitment company to send in my CV to be viewed by ING.
And their location: JALAN RAJA CHULAN.
I don't want to get stuck in jam ever again after what I have been through last time.
HELL NO!


And after procrastinating for so long, I finally changed my background and my new post title font! NICE OR NOT CYS?? PAY ME AND I'LL DO ONE FOR YOU! BAH!!! 
 But too bad... Can't see my poor little sheep and the basket...

That's the call which I'm been waiting for long enough...

You see, I was kinda like taking time out to shut all those sound pollution which is still going on for the past 3 days already and I HATE IT! Seriously man. Think it's the road works replacing those large underground pipes...GEEEEE!! SO ANNOYING!! How I wish my Ipod is still with me so I can just plug on and have soothing music to ease up!

Anyways, back to where I was, suddenly a KL number called me and the lady introduced herself and said that she would like to interview me next Monday. I was so happy till I feel like puking! HAH!

HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WILL TURN OUT WELL!

Happy 40th Birthday Sesame Street!



When "Sesame Street" premiered, Oscar the Grouch was much grouchier than he is today.
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • "Sesame Street" will celebrate its 40th anniversary on November 10
  • Early years now on DVD with warning label: intended for nostalgia purposes only
  • On the DVDs, Cookie Monster smokes a pipe; children are seen riding bikes without helmets
  • Set has been sanitized, but warmth of show remains

(CNN) -- In the early days of "Sesame Street" -- that is, B.E. (Before Elmo) -- Sesame Street was a pretty grimy place.

The brownstone at 123 Sesame Street looked like it needed a serious power washing, the storefront of Mr. Hooper's shop was intentionally dingy and the Fix-It Shop's window was cluttered with toasters. It was gritty, but gritty in a magical way.

When the show started in 1969 ("Sesame Street" will celebrate its 40th anniversary on November 10), the concept of educational television programming was nothing short of revolutionary. "Sesame Street" was originally intended as a learning tool for inner-city children -- not only as a supplement to their lessons in math and the ABCs but to teach them to be good people and show them that learning can be fun.

Those early years are now available on DVD; and the discs contain a disclaimer that essentially states that they are intended for nostalgia purposes only. The warning reads as follows:

Video: Stars remember 'Sesame Street'

"These early 'Sesame Street' episodes are intended for grown-ups, and may not suit the needs of today's preschool child."

Say what!? Never did I ever think I'd see "Sesame Street" and "intended for grown-ups" in the same sentence. iReport: What letter of the alphabet would you like to pay tribute to?

On the DVDs, Cookie Monster can be seen as his character of Alistair Cookie in his "Monsterpiece Theatre" segment (a spoof of Alistair Cooke's "Masterpiece Theatre") smoking a pipe.

Yep, Cookie Monster smoked.

He later eats the pipe because, as he was often prone to doing, he thinks the pipe is a cookie. Cookie Monster used to become so overwhelmed by his desire for cookies that he'd start seeing (hallucinating about?) cookies that weren't actually there. He'd eat (rotary) telephones, typewriters (what are those?), pencils, almost anything. It was funny.

Today, Cookie Monster's diet is much more balanced, as he has adopted the philosophy that cookies are a "sometimes food." Cookie coincidentally changed his tune in 2006 amidst reports that childhood obesity had reached epidemic proportions.

Early "Sesame Street" had some other elements that would not pass muster today. Oscar the Grouch is just plain nasty, children are seen riding their bikes without helmets, and there's even a sketch where the human character of Gordon can be seen approaching a little girl on the street. He takes her by the hand and brings her into his house for milk and cookies (again with the cookies!). Clearly, that could be misinterpreted by today's standards.

Now, some 4,000 episodes later, 123 Sesame Street has gotten that power washing. Peeling paint is nowhere to be found, and the only visible garbage can has a tenant. It's much more sanitized. I'm tempted to make fun of this, but then I notice the bottle of anti-bacterial hand gel on my desk and bite my proverbial tongue.

For better or worse, today's preschooler is very different from the 1969 version. And children's television programming simply has to reflect that.

But one thing hasn't changed on "Sesame Street": the unflinchingly genuine attitudes of its residents. For 40 years, they have taught us that sometimes we are going to get hurt, cry and be lonely. They've taught us that there'll also be times when we're downright jovial. All the while, those characters have remained sincere.

We may never see Cookie Monster eat a pipe again, but luckily the memories are preserved on DVD, and in our hearts.



my personal favourite... COOKIE MONSTER
and ELMO!!

water..

Yes! I'm pissed off today.

Why?

Simply because there is not a single drop of water in the house! And those stupid Syabas people are not doing anything to find out what's the cause of it! Smart ASS!


Wanted to cook my corn today but it didn't happen because there is no water. GREAT!


And one of my housemate, who is filthy, pissed the landlady because when she wanted to clean the toiley, there were FAECES in the toiley bowl and he apparently did not FLUSH IT DOWN! FILTHY RIGHT?? She was grumbling something like, "SUCH A GROWN UP FAT MAN CAN'T EVEN DO DOWNSTAIRS TO GET A PAIL OF WATER TO FLUSH THOSE SHIT DOWN!" I mean like, I can't stand it anymore but to blog about it. He's not young! I think he's in his 30's dee. For heaven's sake, I bet a 12 year old can do that if the parents have groomed them up well enough. Oh yes, not forgetting that his younger bro is also staying in the same house as us. But the good thing that his bro has got a toiley of his own. But what I don't understand is that why can't he use the bro's toiley? You see, my housemates are so filthy that they don't flush their urine (I don't know if they forget or what...) and after doing their BIG BUSINESS, they tend to leave traces of their faeces. Hmmmm... I wonder why. You know, dogs leave their pee around so that they can trace back where they went and all. I guess it's just that they are afraid that they will someday forget where their house is and then try to SNIFF back to where they belong... Yes, I think that's a very good reason for this kinda things.


Damn! I think I'm just too free to blog about all this kinda things man... MEHHHHH!!!!

I'm dehydrated. I need waterrrr.....

random updates

OH yes, the other day, was it on a Thursday or something... yes, it was a Thursday. We finally get a chance to watch Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatball (3D version) in Mid Valley. Well, that was my first time watching 3D. I was thrilled! I wanted to watch motion master with my parents when we were in Genting long long time ago but I was not tall enough. So, there goes my 3D adventure. Sigh.,
Thank you Sheldy Boy!

Another thing, I think Seputeh is now a gated community so to say cuz there are loadsa guard house all over the neighbourhood and also loadsa houses having the security sticker. That is GOOD (in a way). KUDOS!

Well, wanted to swim yesterda evening but too bad. It was raining... not really heavy but with those horrifying lightnings... it's better to just go for my dinner. Don't want to be roasted. HAH! Hopefully today will be a good day for swimming. Guess I'll be going to Ikea to get my spatulas so that I can COOK! Muahahaha!!

So yes, heard from Leng yesterday that Ting will be in KL next week! GOODY!! I actually suggested to go Chili's so that we can sit there for as long as you want and get free flow of drinks and chips! WOOHOO!! Brilliant idea rite??!! *BLEAH*

I wish...

I wish you were here with me like you used to...

I wish you were here to sing a song for me.

I wish you were here to whistle a song for me.

I wish you were here to see me in my convocation robe.

I wish you were here to shake my hand and congratulate me.

I wish you were here to guide me.

I wish you were here to let me hug and kiss always.

I wish you were here to always listen to me whenever I have got "topics" to share with you.

I wish you were here....

I miss the MILO TIME every night at 9pm with you.

I miss teasing you, hugging you so tightly and giving you loadsa kisses around your face!

I miss touching your "ever-so-soft-baby-like-hair" and your rounded head. :)

I miss calling you "GONG GONG GI!" (I gave him the name)

I miss touching and shaking your hand.

I miss your very cute ear.

I miss your eyes.

I miss hearing you whistle and sing.

I miss your smile, your ever jolly attitude.

I miss everything about you.

I MISS YOU SO SO MUCH GONG GONG...



How I wish I can turn back time so that I can say my final words to you before you left. Unfortunately, I can't. All because of my stupid exam. If not for the exam, I can still talk to you through the phone and rush back to see you for the very last time. Even though I have prepared myself for the day, but I didn't expect it to come so sudden. It has been a year now, but for me, it's feels just like yesterday. I can still remember when I reached home, I saw everyone, and they started to cry but I told myself that I can't and will not break down in front of my grandpa and also my family... *SIGH*

This is why I'm going back to Ipoh every week. Because I promised my 92 year old grandma that I will be back to spend time with her...

*SMILES!*
