Cookie's teasers

I'm tired of dealing with liars & hypocrites.

Actually, come to think of it, I'm tired of dealing with people generally.

You never know.

My Achievement @ GYM

I did it ! Went for combat and pump classes today ! Yeah yeah, for those who frequent the gym may say this is nothing but for those who know me well, this is an achievement rite ??? I am those who would rather drive when the distance is only a "5 minutes walk" and whose hobby is sleeping.

I am so proud of myself =)

Tone arms ! Tone arms ! LOL

Thanking The LORD

Someone is trying to give me HELL.

The Car Incident

After lunch, me & colleagues saw this Iswara's tyre which was punctured. We were all laughing thinking how the poor GIRL (yes, we assumed it's a girl) will let her tyres be like that.

Come 2++, I went to my car to drive to an event. After reversing my car, i heard a "clunking" sound issued by one of my tyres. OH NOOOOO !!! With a sinking feeling, I went out to check and sure enough, my front right tyre is punctured. Wat the..... ??! KARMA for laughing at people ??! I called my colleagues and they help me to change to my spare tyre. They're so helpful coz I parked at B3 and it was so freaking hot. After installing the spare, we found out that it is FLAT too!! HA HA. I got cursed by them coz I am those typical GIRL who do not know a thing about cars and whatever.

Somehow, we manage to drive to the nearest workshop, thank GOD Sunway has many workshops nearby. My colleague bargained the price for me and they changed 2 of my tyres.

I got lectured about not checking this and that abt my car by the MALE species.

C: How come ur car got 5 rims ?

Me: what is 5 rims ?

C: Slaps forehead.

Me: You mean those sports rims ar ?

C: No, i mean A4 paper rims....!

Me: he he. I dunno....my ex do for me last time.

C: Got check ur black oil one or not ? When was ur last service?

Me: Err...u check the sticker there..

C: Your sticker is old and can't see ur next service mileage date.

Me: Yes ar ? Err....??! I also dunno ler....

C: I wanna knock ur head d. Tommorow bring u service ur car !

Me: POKAI lah, now change 2 tyres, tommorow wanna service car ?

C: You wanna break down in federal highway without us here to help u ?

Me: okok....

C: Ur brakes pad need to be changed too! And maybe ur absorber !

Me: (i dunno wat the heck is an absorber but keep quiet la, colleague already gimme the look) OK, u bring me la.

C: BTW, why r u sitting here ? People change ur tyres u dowan to see one ar ?

(I was relaxing at the a/c room)

Me: What's there to see ?

C: See lah, what they doing....If not they simply do for u or change old tyres !

Me: So hot la out there.

C: You ar. BLUR CASE ! bla bla bla (he was toking some car things)

The Gym Incident

Nothing should deter me from my determination to have toned arms so I went to the gym and workout. Bloody dunno what i was doing, I accidently lock my locker with the keys inside! Oh GOD!! HELP ! I was only in my towel with my face flushed and body all sweaty after sauna. HELP ! HOW?! Dun't tell me I have to walk to my car in a white towel and bare footed ?? Come to think of it, walk to my car also no use, my car keys are also inside the locker !!

HOW ?! HOW ?! Should I walk to the reception (which is a floor below and u have to pass those people working out) and ask them for some help ?!

Luckily those washroom aunties came (i think they saw me panicking, my hair was in a mess and face all red lah - look like a mad woman i tell u) and I told them my "situation" They told me not to worry, they encounter this all the time and ask me to wait. After 2 minutes, aunty came back with this huge "break-the-lock" equipment (OK I DO NOT KNOW THE NAME - I AM A GIRL!!) and I got all my stuffs back in seconds =)

Friends

By the time I got to my car, I was feeling really down. What a day! To top it all, on my way home, a traffic police was right beside me and I didn't have my seat belt on! Sigh! I was thinking, there goes another rm100 but maybe he was also not in the mood, he didn't stop or give me any summons. A miracle !

Despite all the things that happened, I am feeling much better now after a nice shower and friends who gave me chocolates and friends who cheer me up with quirky stories. So what if I lose my money? I am still alive and there are people out there that care for me. I am indeed lucky and I wanna specially dedicate this post to the LORD for sending angels down to help & guide me =)

Body Combat

Sometimes I am relli so full of it. I planned to go for body combat and body pump classes today. Like so motivated. After half an hour of combat, I am nearly dying. My sides start to ache and feel like going to faint d.

But it's a good class. I like it =)

My MSN profile pic

I changed my profile pic and this is what happens:

WW: Why ur profile pic so "hao"?

PC: aiyo ur pic!! better change lah....later wolf come after u !

Selangor's Public Holiday

I'm so happy whenever this happens. I know, I'm a sicko. LOL

Lets see...

Later I will watch my new tvb series - "catch me now" at about say 11pm. I'll watch maybe 3 episodes. That will end at about 2am. Then I will continue my Shopaholic in Manhattan book till 3am.

I will wake up tommorow at 9am to buy nasi lemak (have to wake up that early coz the aunty's nasi lemak finishes by 9.30) Then I will come back and sleep again till 12pm. After that I will maybe go to the gym for 2 hours. Then back home to have a nice rest and play some games after the rest. I hope it rains tommorow afternoon. What a bliss that will be =)

Happy working to liljames, Huez, Miki, Wilz, CH etc etc

*evil laugh* muahahahahahahahaha

The dentist

I know I said I wont go to the dentist but u see, I woke up last nite at 3am to the thunderstorm and felt like a lump on my gums. Seeing that I am awake, I got up and googled what this thing is about and the image results made me wish I didn't do that.

This morning, I quickly went see the dentist.

You know why I am scared of dentist? They put u in the middle of the room on that “chair” with all the long and sharp equipments beside there. For gods sake. They should put some fresh flowers or pictures to distract people's attention lah! Maybe a TV. Nooo, all u get to stare at is the light and the empty ceiling on top of u. So intimidating!

She checked my teeth (normal procedure) and told me I have 2 small holes at the side of my big teeth. Yeah whatever. So what’s the gum swelling or lump's about ? She explained a lot of things. Said that my teeth have lots of dirt and bacteria residing there which will causes the gums swelling and if I dunt cure it, my teeth will all fall out. Great !

So what do I have to do ? Her advice is to do a "scaling" where she will polish and clean them.

Me: Do what ? Scaling? What's that?

Doc: We use this thing (she show me a long thing) and clean out all ur tartars. They are all the dirts which have hardened. This is what causes ur gum pain. If you are not careful, it may be filled with PUS and we have to do a small surgery where we punch a small tiny hole into the lump and drained the pus out.

When she was talking about draining the pus out, I immediately thought of Seamus Finnigan during the Herbology class, where they have to drained out the bobutuber pus. Its kinda funny.

Me: So if i clean the teeth, the bacteria will not have a place to reside in and die ?

Doc: Yes. You will then have healthy teeths. If you dunt cure it, it may result in this (showing me a picture which says gingivitis & pointing to a teeth).

Me: Is it painful ?

Doc: Not at all. (all docs say that - Liars!)

Me: How much is it?

Doc: RM80

Me: How long does it take ? (I look at my watch to pretend that I am on a tight schedule – actually I am still thinking whether I shld do it. Scared lah woi)

Doc: 20 mins.

Me: OK, please just do it NOW before I change my mind.

The procedure was quite okay. No pain (except the part where I had the swells) and now I have clean teeth (tartar free and stain free).

I’m quite happy. Plus, my gums is slowly becoming normal. The swell has gone down =)

I have to go back to do the "filling" for my 2 small holes. Maybe in 6 months time.

In PAIN !

My gums are swollen and its hurting like %$#@ ! Cannot eat and drink properly also ! %$#@ !

But I am still gonna live happily =P

And I'm not going to the dentist........ !

A story

Got this in my mailbox this morning and I'd like to share with you in view of the 2 incidents that has happened this week:

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat














A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words.
















He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'















The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.'

What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.


Great men say, 'Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness.... In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.'

Shocked

I juz found out that one of my uni fren passed away.

What in the world is happening ?

I think I'll go in2 a shock mood soon.

Let the brawl begins...........

LIVERPOOL v MANCHESTER UNITED
SATURDAY, 1945 MALAYSIAN TIME

Rafa Benitez has stunned England fans by admitting Steven Gerrard could face Manchester United on Saturday. The Liverpool boss caused a storm when he sent the Liverpool skipper for a minor groin operation before England’s World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Croatia. He claimed the op was vital and would also keep Gerrard out of the clash with their biggest rivals. Now Benitez has sparked a bitter club v country row by admitting Gerrard could line up at Anfield. He said: “Gerrard is still progressing, so you never know. The key is the fitness of the player — it makes a massive difference if he has confidence.” Hitman Fernando Torres could also play after suffering a hamstring injury 10 days ago. Benitez added: “It is better to avoid saying whether Gerrard and Fernando Torres can be available. It’s difficult to say.”
Phil Thomas, The Sun

Some team getting desperate already. Wanna play their top 2 players and risk getting them injured again. Bring them on also no use. Our ferdinand-vidic-evra-neville/brown is ever ready =)

Seizures/Epilepsy

This morning, I was happily chatting with my colleague about next week's public holiday in Selangor and how we must be careful not to make any appointments with our KL clients when another colleague shouted "HELP" behind us.

At first we thought she dropped something but when people start running over, we realise that something strange is going on. Another colleague had a seizure. Someone gave her something to bite on and nobody knew what to do as this is the first time something like this happened in the company. Thank god for our HR, who have some knowledge on how to deal with this situation. She was sent to the hospital. Actually she became conscious after about 5 - 10 mins but was still required to go in case something serious happens later. When she came back, we asked her about it and it seems she has no history of epilepsy and this is the first time it's happening. Apparently she had a head injury last week and doctors said that this might be one of the causes plus high stress. Something to do with the nerves or chemicals in the brain. From now onwards, she has to take medication because when u get it once, u will get it again.

It's just so frightening. A normal healthy person can collapse just like that. Reminds me of my friend's father who passed away earlier this year. Juz out of a sudden he felt something wrong with his body and when he reach the hospital, he is pronouce brain-dead.

Nobody can explain the causes of this kind of thing. Some say stress. Even if you are not a smoker or drinker, it doesn't mean you won't get these kind of strange sickness. It's just fated I guess.

So everyone please try to live your life stress-free (abit difficult I know) & do whatever you want NOW because you will never know.

The return to the gym

Today I feel so motivated to go to the gym after work since I haven't been there for a very long time.

I decided to go slow and join the yoga class at 1840. I had to bring my lappie home tonight because I am on standby for a customer who may need some info. The stupid brick is so heavy and I have some thoughts to leave it in the car and let it get stolen =p

But of course, I am not those type of person, so I dragged it to the gym locker. They have some special CCTV lockers for you to keep ur lappie but nevermind lah, mine is not a MAC. Nobody will wanna steal a brick like that. I juz stuffed it together with my clothes at the women's locker room.

After changing, I have some time to kill and I saw these 2 girls doing some cardio thingy on a machine. It is an equipment where you sit there and just row ur arms in circles. It looks easy so I tried it. After what seems like an eternity, I look at the monitor and it told me that I have only been working out for 1.5 minute ?! What ?! My arms are beginning to tire and I dun't feel comfortable with some muscular guy stretching next to me so I stop after 3 mins.

Still with time to spare, I saw this girl exercising so enthusiatically on this "stepper" thingy. I think I can do that. It looks easy too ! After 1 minute.....





















OH MY GOD I WANNA DIE....!!

My legs are sooo tired!
Why is the girl beside me running? I'm only like...walking. How does she do it? Where does she get the energy from? I think she doesn't work. She must be one of those rich people who doesn't have to wake up at 7am to work. That must be it. Or else she must be a robot in disguise. Nobody can run like that for so long, after a long day at work.

After the 2nd minute, sod it ! Wtf. It is so difficult okay. I just wanna walk but the speed seems to increase with every step or move or whatever. I am just not made for this thing.

Anyway, it's time for the yoga class ! YaY ! Finally something that I can do.

It's good to stretch all the muscles in my body particulary my thighs and arms. However after half hour, the teacher decided that it's time for us to do the head stand. I can't do the head stand ! no no ! So i stand there and watch. Well, maybe one day I will be able to. Not today.

Overall, I spent like 35 minutes working out and I feel hungry already. I decided to quit the sauna and go home. To go to my car, I have to walk past all these fast food restaurants. The aroma of KFC was so enticing! I manage to resist the temptation. There's food at home and I am still on this "saving" thingy after all.

At the carpark, a girl told me that the autopay is not working. Damn it. I drove another 2 floors up and parked my car to go down to pay. Dunno why, I suddenly fear for the brick getting stolen. Yeah I dun't like that thing but it doesn't belong to me. I kept a watch on my car while slotting my 1 ringgit in.

Well there you go. My day at the gym is so interesting right ? I think I'll go again on Wednesday =)

Btw, i drop the brick when i was carrying it out of the car. My arms were tired lah!

I hope it still works though...... if it doesn't, I'll juz pretend it crashed tommorow morning. Maybe I will get a T-series this time..... *keke*

Welcome Berbatov

A bit late for this post but welcome to Dimitar Berbatov, our new no 9 =)

Let's see what he can do at Anfield next week.

Lotus Top Gun Training

Went for the IBM Lotus Top Gun training at Novotel last month. It was a one-week-product-training thingy and we were made to work from 8.30am to 6pm daily. The photo below was taken during one of the early days of the week. Still happy and looking forward to spending a week out of the boring office routine.


After the 2nd day, all pretense were abandoned. We spent some classes of the classes doing this:



This is our saviour. Without this, we would never have survive the 8 hours:


But overall, it was a good experience. We all got our certificates and gifts and everyone went back happy & are more knowledgeable about the yellow symbol.

I bought new shoes

Since I have already lost RM150.00 this morning, what is RM40 more right ?

The shoes were on sale ! 50% discount ! It's so worth it, I just must buy it.

I promise this will be my last pair of shoes =)

Reminder: I should never set any appointments at Sunway Pyramid anymore.

Car battery died

Before the day even started, I have already lost RM150 to change my car battery. So much for my cutting back plan. Next time I better shut my mouth about savings and all that. It's like you can't say it out loud...like a taboo....!

Why is it that there is no signal that ur car battery is gonna die soon? It's juz so sudden. Turn on the ignition and cannot start. Grrrr !

That workshop fellow didn't have those maintenance-free type either, so now I have to fill in the battery water every month. Hope I remember.

Shopaholic no more

Reading the shopaholic book has made me realise that there is a person out there that is so much worse than me and that is a huge relief because for the past few months, I’ve done nothing but spend and spend and spend. Some of the things I don’t really need. I do not know why I buy them.

An example is my gym membership. That’s so sad. I’ve only been there less than 7 times since June. I must start going again next Monday if not I will be wasting my rm99 per month. Of course, this is not call wasting money because I do need to slim down.

Anyway in the book, the girl’s father told her to either CUT BACK or MAKE MORE MONEY. Since I’ve just started my current job few months ago, making more money is not really an option now as I do not want to hop again. Maybe next year?

So my other option is to CUT BACK. That will be my new resolution for this month. This will be a good option as I do need to save for my trips next year. I’ve booked for a Macau/HK trip next July and hopefully I will be heading to Europe in October (trip has been postponed from this year) I’m excited for both trips because for HK, I finally get to eat those delicious curry fish ball and chee cheong fun (there....those that the tvb actors alwiz eat). As for Europe, it has alwiz been my dream to visit Manchester. I just have to go there OKAY!

Anyway, back to the cutting back part. So here’s a list of what I am going to cut back on:

1) Starbucks - There is really no need to drink coffee at Starbucks when there's free coffee at office all the time.

2) Bags – Do I really need so many types of different colors and sizes of bags?

(LOOK AT THOSE LOVELY BAGS !!)

3) Clothes - My wardrobe is on the verge of bursting. I should stop. I wear the same and my most favourite clothes all the time anyway…..

4) Accessories – I don’t even wear them when I am not in the mood.

5) Make up – I have too many mascaras and lipsticks and god knows what else.

What else. Hmm…I’ll add when I think of more.

Perhaps I should sell my current books and clothes and all those bags. Hmmm….make more money. That’s a way...

OH ! I left out SHOES ! Right.

6) Shoes - No more new shoes until my old ones are all torn and the heels broke or something...black matches everything anyway...(consoling myself)























(LOOK AT THOSE LOVELY STRAPPY SHOES !!!)

Do you think I should stop going to cinemas too ? Coz I guess I should get cheap dvds to watch at home. But then those dvds cost like rm8. Going to cinema only adds an extra rm2. Maybe more, if you add in popcorns, snacks and drinks. But then, some dvds are really bad quality type. I'll think about this. Deception starts this week. My Ewan Mcgregor...sobs....

This cutting back thing will start tommorow =P

Since it only starts tommorow, I will go out now and buy my last Starbucks for umm this month? (C'mon, one Starbucks per month is fine - sometimes, we need to reward ourselves for being so disciplined, right? ) *keke*
