Last year, I did weekly updates, but this year I'm guilty of monthly ones. And my writing - I don't know, it seems that I have lost my mojo. Today, I can't write as well as I could maybe two, three years back, I can't think of anything acerbic when I need to people-bash, I turned to stuffing my face with food rather than write when I'm pissed off with someone... you get the drift. Orang kata, bukan aku, tapi orang... people produce their best works when they're sad, or depressed, or angry... So maybe I should be depressed again? Ish... pegang kayu...sentuh kayu...
Anyway, back to the signs. Gilabaa punya digress kat atas tu...
Something happened yesterday and today that made me realize, maybe those are signs that I should update my lame-ass blog.
Yesterday, after our Sakae Sushi dinner The Diver and I were greeted by this smiley-faced Adik. At first I thought, this must be The Diver's diving anak buah or something, and The Diver thought, hmm.. this must be budak junior STF who knew me...Then suddenly she went, "You guys don't know me but I read your blogs!!!"

Azlin the Adik who reads our blog, The Diver and I...
I didn't know what to feel. Embarrased, mainly because I haven't been updating at all. Embarassed for also not being able to write as coherently or as interestingly as I used to. But of course, I was flattered too! And honoured, for a stranger to come up to you and congratulate you for finally finding true love. And today she e-mailed The Diver, and I'm putting up this one line which made me go AWWWWWWWWW!!!!! , I hope you don't mind Adik...
"If there are people who have given up on hope,love,happiness; I told them how you guys met and what both of you went through."
Cerita belum habis lagi kak.
So an hour ago, I checked my Yahoo mail, since FizRi said he emailed the STF dinner picture to that email address. And guess what I found (besides FizRi's e-mail la)... jeng jeng jeng....
An email entitled, "The Day It's About Time", addressed to me. Cuba teka siapa punya blog posting yang titlenya selalu bermula dengan "The Day".. And she said she "sebak" when she read one of my older posts, and that in turn made me "sebak" HUHUHUH UHUUUUUU....WTF la, must be an STF thing this crying over god-knows-what, but I like being able to be sebak and menyebakkan ... And that's not all she said. I don't think I want to disclose it here but suffice to say, I didn't think she would find my blog enjoyable at all cuz hers is like the Manolo of all blogs.
But anyway, those are the signs my friends. And update, I shall (try).
And I will also try to refute the fact that people can only write their best when they're at their worst.
And before I end, let me indulge you with a group photo (taken by FizRi) of some ladies from our batch from STF, at last week's Glitterati a la Femme Dinner (nama yang sangat takde maknanya... tapi takpe)

I would agree that we write better when we were depressed. I remember two years ago when I would update my blog 5 times a day.
Now that we are together, we hardly blog anymore; what more with the advent of Facebook, and couple that with the fact that we are always so busy at work, and busy trying to make up with each other for lost time once we're home.
But there is always that hidden hope that you would update your blog - my source of entertainment made up of things you never get to mention to me; things that go through your mind when I'm not in the room with you. And it is always refreshing to see a new post by you.
I have always loved your blog, Sayang. Please continue blogging.
P.S: Kalau ya pun, laki sendiri punya blog link pun dah outdated dekat setahun
finally! your once a month punye update.
ooo.. after adik yoga tegur kau update ye, kalau tak sebok menenyeh touchpad melayan pet society!
SD, you punya blog link I tak update, Faiez punya pun I tak update.. Hehehehe... blame it on Pet Society. But you know I love you.
Hana, I was meaning to update my blog la, sekali tu tetiba adik yoga tu punya e-mail muncul. Betul, honest to goodness truth. Hheheeh... Chocolate cake dah siap?

Your description of me is so funny! In my yearly appraisal, my boss told me to smile more!
Hmm... update monthly pun tak apalah. Asalkan bahagia sudah.
I still can't believe I actually approached and say hi.
Nanti kau pun jadik Bloggerbrity gak!
Azlin, I've put up your pic! Hahah!
Dayang, aku tak cukup vogyou untuk jadi Bloggerbrity...
Alamak! Malunya!!!
Haha at least I smiled! Now, perhaps I can forward this to my boss.
I was smiling all the way as I walked to the LRT station looking at the two of you holding hands and smiling at each other lovingly.
Azlin, really??? Did we really do that?
I thought things like those only happen on our respective blog...hahaha.
