1. Ever since September 1st 2007, I've been addicted to coffee. Ok, this coming from a person who was allergic to coffee when she was younger. I still remember a POUNDING headache coupled with extreme nausea after drinking iced capucinno when I was walking around with my then boyfriend (first BF mind you) at Harvard Square, Boston on a hot August day in 1993. Totally spoiled my date!
Today is 7th September and I've been taking a cup of coffee every day since the 1st.
2. I've regained my wicked sense of humour. Someone once mentioned that I should be a stand-up comic - like Rosie O'Donnell (i know la i tembam macam dia k) before. Then during the turbulent times in my marriage I became a very blah Plain Jane. Lost my sharp tongue and ability to rib-tickle people.
This evening during the department's balance scorecard meeting - when everyone's energy level is all sapped out and unable to use any part of their brain (past 7pm ok.. puhleaze):
Boss: So how can we leverage the strength of the Group and win more bids?
(deathly silence)
Boss: How? Cross utilisation? Cross selling?
(deathly silence)
Me: CROSS DRESSING! That's the only cross-ing I'll do at this hour!
3. My kids love me better because I've become a happier mother. The dancing / singing sessions with them are baaaaccckkk!!!! More smiles on their faces!!!!
4. You'll see less of my MERAJUK episodes. I finally realized that I was easily sucked into being merajuk because of the stress that I was in before. A mix of self-pity, self-hatred and angst towards my Ex. As a result, SIKIT-SIKIT nak merajuk. No promises that I will lose the merajuk part altogether, ok! You know I'm manja wattt... That's why you likey likey me so much watttttt... (ok enuff enuff)
So far so good.
And I can't wait to take on the world.

hi mimin, what u did-i have the tendency to do the very same thing in a silent moment in a meeting or something like that. hi hi..saying something that will put people to laugh or mulut ternganga.."tak percaya ke?*
am feeling a lot better 2day. eerr..kalau nak buat pyjama party kat shah alam, kita gi concorde lah..amik suite at 16th floor - we can have tea (or cocktail they call it) and breakfast kat 16th floor jugak-tak payah pegi coffee house kat lobby. after rayalah..
You seem a lot better now. :) We're happy for you.
Oh by the way, if you have the time, why don't you start writing a book? Boleh bestseller nih! Hihihi
nachos, cun idea! can't wait for that! how much is the rate? funny never thought shah alam as a place to lepak..heheh.. jgn mare a.
za, i feel a whole lot better. it's hard and the kids are a handful (except medina is with her nanny in BP now) but the freedom really makes up for all that. as for writing a book, I really don't have time! working on some date gift baskets for a client who wants to give out dates on the first day of ramadhan! just got back from nilai 3 :)
Coffee...I only go for kopi tumbuk. Kopitiam coffee. Nescafe gives me PMS...not to mention..smelly pee.
Meetings...I love meetings. Especially when I was still in the govt service. Extended meetings mean pocket money saved.breakfast, lunch and dinner provided. Just have the ability and mental strength to endure non-stop BS.
Dance lessons...hmm, I still prefer the Coyote-Ugly-but-gentlemen's-version in Bangkok called Club Orbit. No, no dance lessons there. Only girls dancing for the yuppie and business crowd. Just that if you are a guy, you wouldn't know which ones to take back to meet your mom. Anyway, the club's been closed now...bummer.
I think I should migrate to Thailand and become a monk. My hairstyle (or the lack of it) dah sesuai.
seademon - what is kopi tumbuk? is it as good as the kopi cap televisyen of kluang (famed for its association with the Johor sultan?)
Meetings? Sense of humour should be a prerequisite la for every meetings held. If not, sangat tak productive.
Dance? Never been to Bangkok unfortunately =) Pathetic right?
Monk? The saffron robe will complement your skin tone well too :)
Jazzy...thank you. Haha!
