A Cookie's Saturday

I slept till about noon today... shocking isnt it ? I actually woke up at 9am lah but feeling dehydrated from the whiskey last night and slightly dizzy i went and slept somemore. Luckily Zan called me at 12pm otherwise I would have been much, much later for our lunch appointment at Bakerzin Bangsar Village.

After a quick shower, i drove to Centrepoint, met up with Zan and went to Bangsar Village to meet the others. I was damn hungry by this time - no breakfast mah, but it's not like i eat a heavy breakfast everyday, just coffee normally. I guess I just felt I deserve a treat. When we arrived at the Zin, i ordered my favourite Seafood Pasta. This time they added a small lobster or big prawn, whatever that is lah....see from the photo below:

u see that big thing with shell one - what's that thing call?



The others ordered the lamb cutlets:













and also the fish milanese:


Jenn & Elaine had soups + pasta + cakes. Their cheesecake was not nice today. It melted too quickly and the taste is not so good. Maybe last night's cakes.


When i came back i browse through some of my friend's blog and came across this saying:

"to be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it"

hmm.......that makes sense and i felt a lot better. So i took a nap - ha ha ha, woi... it's the whiskey lah....i dunt normally pig like this...yeah i do like to nap but i seldom get the chance...usually wen i "snake" (a malaysian term for truant) i go for a loooong coffee session with the other "snakes". Why do we have to use the term "snake" anyway.....god i hope i really dunt have Voldermort's genes.....noooo nooo....must not snake anymore.....

Anyway still nursing the mild hangover from last night, I decided to stay home and watch the match and Manchester United won 1 - 0 (goal scored by C.Ronaldo) so yeah, my week is ending with a high note of good vibes and it will continue to better starting from TODAY :)

Birmingham v Manchester United

Date: 30 September 2007
Time: 0015

Another one of United's own, Steve Bruce's team against Manchester United this week. It should be the same line-up as the one that faced Chelsea last weekend, with Hargreaves only making the bench. I want to see goals ! goals ! goals!
A 1 - 3 for United.

A very personal thought

i'm having a lousy week so far - the worst in 2007. I do not know how i am feeling now, whether should i feel angry/fear/anxiety. I just do not understand humans sometimes. I guess we are a complex subject......

well im thankful i did not have any recurring nightmares about snakes - that's the good part of this week. I've always hated snakes, maybe i'm brought up to think they're evil and they sort of crept into my sub-conscious memory and make me dream about them. I hated those nightmares. There will either be one very big snake like those anaconda type trying to eat me or a few hundreds of them, sometimes talking to me (what the hell? ) or sometimes biting me or sometimes i just escaped them. Well, whatever these dreams symbolize, I have given up trying to interpret them.

I have tried to be optimistic. A friend commented that I have lost quite a bit of weight (shouldnt I be happy?) and that I look really bad. She's right. I guess the stress is showing isnt it ?

I am just dissapointed. It will pass.

My neck/shouder hurts

They say its stress + sitting in front of the PC too long + wrong pillow.

All correct.

There's a tussle going on at work which is causing some stress in my life this week, but after much thoughts coupled with some sleepless nights with nightmares, I say to hell with it.

To make a long story short, the management went back against their word. IF after stating my arguments and offering to help, they still want to burn the bridges, then so be it.

Well, I guess this is quite common scenarios to being an employee so I've actually put it behind me and slept quite well last night.

So what's causing the pain then? Hmmm ..... must be the pillow !!

I should get a new one.

Any recomendations? like those dunno-what animal feather type ?

Not those contour pillow please.... Not relaxed at all lah...

Cookie's teasers

Best to zzz earlier tonite - hope i dunt get a crazy man chasing me this time, but if he looks like brad pitt then ok lah.

A nightmare

I am so sleepy now coz I had a nightmare last night. I went to bed around 2.30am and woke up at 4.30am dreaming that a crazy woman (who look like a ghost from those cheap horror movies - she has long hair, dressed in white with blood oozing out from both side of her lips) chasing me all the way to from PJ to KL ... if i remember correctly she dunt have a gun (or i would have been dead and the nightmare could have ended sooner - damn), i think she had a "parang" ... ???

And when i dozed back, my alarm rang and it's time to get ready for work. Sigh ...

OooooOooOO...i juz checked the dream intepretation diary (yeah im very free) and this dream means i have "life stress". Whooooa.... ??!

Mooncake Gathering 220907

Had a mooncake gathering on Saturday with some lelongers and their families. It was really nice to meet the person behind their nickname. The most talkative award had to go to Ceo who bluffed that he drove a mercedes when we went to re-park our cars. He got me there for a moment...!!!

Vivi made some jelly mooncakes and I love it !! It's shaped exactly like a mooncake and there's even an egg yolk colour in the middle.

Can you guess who is who from the photos below? There's jennwah, lunaticg, bai1101, ceo684, henrytb, scorgio, alancheah, vivienlpl, zeebra, jimmychoo & huannchin :D



After eating so much on Saturday I went to Telok Gong on Sunday and ate about 7 dishes + some beers. My weighing machine is now hidden deep underneath somewhere. No way am i going to see how much I weigh now.

I grabbed the photo below from Vivi's blog, i really like the color and background (ignore the two models please) I think Vivi can give the photographer maniac (you know the guy who keep snapping our photos that night) a run for his money.


Almost forgot, Jennwah brought a cake specially for this gathering (selective memory - MORE KGs added thats why i conveniently try to "forget" about it). Thanks Jennwah :)
