observations...

as promised, i went shopping yesterday. stayed the whole day at the golden triangle area and my parking meter was RM14.50. not bad.

shopping aside, i made some observations of many things...

***

i was looking for a bra and i specifically informed the salesgirl that i was a cup C. the salesgirl (a rather aged woman) said she doesn't have it so she suggested cup B. i said how can i go to cup B when i'm a cup C? that's just wrong. and then she said for cup C and above, there's only a few designs to choose from, buried deep down in the bin. u know how the designs looked like? the ugly ones lah - skin/brown colour, ugly shape, even my aunty wouldn't wear them. so i looked at the salesgirl and said "do i look old to u?"

at another bra counter, the salesgirl (another old one) handed me a cup A. what the hell is wrong with these people? no wonder they work as salesgirls all their lives.

i finally dyed my hair to brown black. it looks mostly black to me. well maybe in the sunlight u can see a tinge of brown. but i like it nonetheless, i look fairer and my teeth look whiter haha. ez said my hair looks healthier now *that's the look i was going for in the 1st place! yay to ez for getting it right* and kayun asked me if she should dye her hair too.

dye it before u die (pun intended). u only live once ;)

why is it that parking lots are monopolised by one race in malaysia? i was thinking, if i had a plot of land, i'd convert it into a parking lot - seriously. can u imagine if it was in kl, i'd make millions! then i can retire with a huge smile on my face and a big fat bank account :)

let’s do the math for eg: the parking lot beside heritage row. in the day, they charge office people RM3 per entry. on weekday nights, they charge party goers RM5 per entry. on weekend nights, they charge RM10 per entry! and the land is not small. at any one time, it can hold i think up to 500 cars. on one weekend night, the owner of the land gets RM5000 untung bersih ok! where got major overhead to pay for except the minimum wage of his kulis yang actually take care of the parking lot, right? no need to pay for electricity, no water bills, no telephone bills and many other no's. even if there is, it'd be too trivial to talk about. so... imagine lah wei.

u gotta have a dream, right? so does anyone know how to go about this?

my boss is also a gemini. some geminis u can instantly click with, but some are hard to understand. i mean, did i not say that i am the ultimate geminian? i am the definition of what a gemini person should be. but he is somewhat of a different creature than the ones i'm used to. maybe i only know women geminis eh? maybe men geminis are from mars, just like the rest of 'em. he puzzles me, he really does.

i love love love christmas songs. they make me hum and sing along and i feel instantly happy. i should get a cd of xmas songs lah. but i don't like the modern ones, the old ones are the best. where can i find this? it was a good thing that the malaysia sale is in conjunction with the year-end festivities. so the shopping malls were full of the jolly old xmas songs. people were looking at me funny when i sang along.

oh ya this is another annoyance. is it a bad thing for someone to be singing to themselves in shopping malls? i don't sing loudly, i mostly hum. but i always get stares from other pedestrians. is it bad that someone can actually be happy? is it bad that a person can actually express their happiness through singing? is it bad to sing at all?

there were these 2 kids and their mother who were obviously staring at me while i sang and hummed and trying on some shoes at the same time. what the fuck is she teaching her kids? to be rude?

staring is rude, by the way.

i ran out of moisturiser so being the faithful and loyal Olay user, i looked at the new total effects for blemish skin range at Watson's. as i was reading the label on the box, the promoter girl came up to me and started her speech and gave me advise on which moisturiser to go for and how to take care of my skin bla3. her skin was flawless (albeit a bit dark) so i was actually mesmerised by her. but u know what? beautiful skin is not enough. i looked at her teeth and i knew what she had for lunch! major yucks!! i almost said to her "dik, memang betul kita nak kulit kita cantik, tapi gigi tu pun nak kena jaga".. hehe i didn't at the end cos she gave me a free starbucks voucher for purchasing the moisturiser *thanks ya dik ;) lain kali boleh bagi lagi*

***

will i stay in this marriage long enough to see our kids get their own kids? or will i just be another figure in the divorce statistics?

i'm losing faith. God help me... what is my destiny? :'(
