Cherrie Wong

The long awaited arrival of Miss Cherrie Wong has finally come!!!

My cousin's wife Esther gave birth to a bouncing 3.3kg bub at 2.50pm

Oh I'm so excited. Seriously, of all my cousins having kids, this one means a shit load to me.

Why?

I grew up with this guy. He was always hanging out at my place and we were like brother and sister. Always running around, sneaking off to arcades, doing stuff we weren't supposed to, making weird foods - basically just being kids

And now he's a father....

I think I'm going to cry!

Marie France Bodyline Free Trial Session

I saw this thing from Marie France in The Star on Monday - text in for a free trial session and since I just got a free sample Dermalogica set I thought what the heck, let's try and see if I get any more free stuff.

Sure enough, by Wednesday a representative called me up and set up an appointment for me today at their Uptown outlet.

Their reception counter. I expected something fancier though...

It was my first time ever going to a slimming centre and well let's face it, I was more curious than anything else.

So I get there in the morning at 11.30 and fill up some forms, answer some questions, got my weight and height measured and of course my body parts.

Good news :
a) my BMI is good. It's only at 20.9 (for those who have no idea what it is, click here to read and learn to calculate your own BMI. It's basically taking your weight divided by your height squared)
b) she measured my body and my Waist-Hip Ratio is good too although she didn't tell me what the number was.......
c) My fatty bits are mostly in my jelly belly and front thighs so I don't actually need that much work done

Bad news :
a) My recommended package included a whole bunch of nonsense which amounted to 2288MYR
b) She was BLOODY pushy, I mean, I haven't even gone in for my free trial session to see if I like it or not and she was pushing me to sign up for one of their gazillion packages
c) I'm just here for the free trial session. End of discussion.

So anyways in the end, I went in for my free trial session.

Cam-whoring while waiting for the lady to come in and zap me

First they zapped me

I only took pix of the machine and the thingamajiggas cuz, well, it wasn't a pretty sight. My thighs were literally 'jumping' up and down with every shock. There was a point towards the end when my left thigh actually started to cramp up... bah

Then they wrapped me

They wrapped these bandages which were soaked with some sorta special solution and it was warm. About 2 rounds of that around my waist and my hip and then it was cling wrap all over to keep it warm.

At the end of it?
I felt... normal. There was no overwhelming experience. It wasn't like I had just come out from heaven or anything like that.

Well I did feel a bit of tingly legs from all that zapping and a slight burning sensation on my derrière because during the wrap, some of the liquid oozed out and slowly dripped down.

Oh well, it was all in the name of adventure and good fun!!!

Pleasa... thank youa

Magic World Test

Got this ppt file from a colleague... did it... weird as it is, any way I do it, it always ends up with the same answer.

Coincidence? Or just a faulty/generic answer for everyone? Oh well.... :)

Dreams

I had a strange dream last night. At one point it was as if the puppy and I had gotten our own place cuz we were throwing some sort of shower and there were gifts everywhere.

But somehow I was just feeling rather pissed at something and decided to kill myself.

Oddly, there were two of me – a physical and a spiritual me. The physical me looked a bit ethereal, wearing a white flowy dress and had short hair (like me circa 2007 with my short bob).

She hung a noose and calmly looped it around her neck and just sat with her legs crossed as though she was meditating. The spiritual me (which was the eyes that I was looking through) gave her a push. She swung to and fro as though on a swing.

After a bit I realized it wasn’t right and that ‘someone’ was coming home soon, so I quickly ran over to the physical me and helped her off the noose. By that time she was choking already.

There was one part where I saw Tris playing with Byte. She was trying to run away but he toyed with her. Every time she made it a certain distance, he would pick her up and put her back. The poor girl was running in circles non stop trying to escape.

It pissed me. So I went over to pick her up. The poor little girl was exhausted. Her breathing was erratic and she had run so much, her eyeballs were about to pop out. *sigh*

Then my dream switched to another scene. It looked like one of those floating markets in Bangkok except that it wasn’t. Don’t ask me how I know, I just do.

There was a commotion on one end, so I inched my way through the crowds to see. Curiosity does kill the cat. All of a sudden every thing moved in slow motion. People around me moved away and were gasping and pointing at me. They looked like I just exploded.

I looked down and hmm they were right. A single stray bullet hit me in the midsection. Right below my ribcage and above my belly button. It was like I had two belly buttons.

Then everything went back to normal pace and people were screaming and running away. No one offered to help me.

Blood was gushing out of my wound. Instinctively I pressed on it to help stop the bleeding and staggered off.

I ended up in a shopping mall. My shirt was all bloodied at the midsection. There was a little burnt hole right where the bullet went through my top and into my body. My wound had stopped bleeding and I could see the bullet embedded in my stomach.

Then I woke up.

So yeah I’ll never know what happened in the end.

But here’s some interpretations of my dream.

To see your boyfriend in your dream, represents your waking relationship with him and how you feel about him.

To dream of your own death, indicates a transitional phase in your life. You are becoming more enlightened or spiritual. Alternatively, you are trying desperately to escape the demands of your daily life.

To dream that you are hanging yourself, suggests that you are trying to escape from some guilt or fear. Consider also the image as a pun for something in your life which you have left hanging or unfinished.

To see your or someone else's pet in your dream, represents civilized instincts. You are keeping your temper in line. Alternatively, it indicates a need for love and acceptance. You are lacking attention from others and are feeling neglected. The pet may also be a pun for "petting" as in some sexual behavior.

To dream of being hit by a bullet, suggests that you need to persevere and endure the difficult times.

To see a wound in your dream, is symbolic of grief, anger, and distress. You are looking to be healed. Consider the location, size and type of wound. Alternatively, the dream may be metaphor suggests that you are "wound up" or tense about some situation.

got it!

So I met up with the editor and she is offering me a job. Unfortunately, even though I have 4 years of working experience, only 1 year is of publishing, so they can't offer me the position of a full-fledged writer. What she can do is to offer me the position of a editorial coordinator and writer. This means I'll have to do some administrative stuff for the mag as well... which isn't that all bad cuz then I'll know how the magazine is run, instead of just writing or editing...

Now... the set back is... if I take it (which I will anyways) I'll be taking a 20% pay cut....

So... yeah....

good news I hope!!!!

The editor called me again this morning, she wants to meet up today after work again.

This is good news, no?

*bunny jumps around in joy*

arrrghhh

I want this new job so bad... so yeah, fashion editor, not really up my alley yet... I mean come on, I haven't even been back in the publishing line for ages, what makes me think I can even be a fashion editor?

Anyhoo, just got a call from an editor last week. Met up with her today. Apparently I made a really good impression on her the last time, it's just that she didn't see me as an editor but more of a writer, BUT there was no vacancy for that then.

Two year later, she calls up. Vividly remembers me and is really keen on getting me on her team.

I REALLLLLLYYYY hope it goes thru this time.

How coincidental

It's my 200th blog post... and it's the 555 days of the bunny and puppy

Unfortunately... I've been having nightmares again... which also I have done some research and found proof that my nightmare might come true....

So today will be our doomsday....

I have held on to my side of the deal. We promised to throw this out the window last year. And now you are sneakily bringing it back.

So if you don't hold on to yourside today... it's over

I have had enough of this emotional torture and lying...

how much more

are you going to keep hurting me?

do you want me to live like this?

do you want to keep lying to me?

am I supposed to hold on to a lie?

Tell me....

Merana

Spring cleaning out my inbox. I've got so much junk in there, and most things which I don't need anymore.

Then I came across this quote which I had kept. I have this habit of emailing things back to myself which I want to put on this blog. Just in case I forget, you know

Mak Inom : I tengok you nyenyak sangat tidur, I perasan you macam dah mati. I terfikirkan sayang, kalau you mati, I merana...

Pak Atan : Itulah... I lebih suka you mati dulu. Biar I yang merana, jangan you yang merana

Gubra, Yasmin Ahmad

Translation :
Mak Inom : I saw you sleeping so soundly, I thought you died. Then I thought my dear, if you die, I would suffer.
Pak Atan : Well, that's why I rather you die first. Let me suffer, not you
