my B-day

Unfortunately Dad & Mom don't do internet.

Oh it's OUT

Give Anthony Callea a break but I'm actually referring to Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! Finally the MoM has been revealed. Harry's hair is shorter too! And he's not nekkid. Haha.

And the last piece of JK Rowling's heavenly gift for the muggle - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Well it's not out yet but the covers of the book are. And for sure the Slytherin locket will play a golden heavy, literally, role in the story.

And where is Harry gonna duel with Voldemort? It looks like some kinda coliseum (in Rome?), no? Rumours are saying that Harry might actually contain/be Voldemort's 7th piece of soul, hence the you-die-or-I-die prediction.

The whole of the muggle world is anticipating for July. Some, quite impatiently. A magical month indeed.

That's Sherly we are talking about

When I told Sherly that Anthony Callea was gay her responses were as cheeky as she:

1. I hate finding out that most of cute and awesome guys are gays. I WANT ONE FOR ME TOO, TE!!!!! =(

2. This is the only time in my life when I wish I were born as a man. =P Really Sherly? You would wanna become a man for Anthony? I'm sure he'd be flattered.

You're the best Sherly!! And I hope your bf doesn't think any differently of you tonight. Hahaha

It's hard to say

I was torn apart tonight. Mom mentioned something that I had been dreading to hear. A confession which I would rather be lied to, at her cost.

Tonight, I chose to sleep on it.

Tomorrow night, I will think about how would the situations be on both sides of the scales, again.

And I feel that the same answer will tear her apart, again.

妈咪说：马路如虎口

Mom says: the road is akin to the mouth of a tiger.

The accident was almost reliving scenes from Independence Day and Speed 1.

Drops of heaven: Green Tea + Line Dried Clothes + Spring Air

It was a cool lazy Saturday evening when I just finished dinna. So as per normal, I lit a few candles and burned some essential oils. As usual I like to mix a couple drops of each oil to make things more raunchy.

And while having Friends (what else?) on the background, I was folding clothes and ironing stuff - all domestic I know! When it got to the ironing - this is the part where I wanna share with y'all - suddenly this idea struck me!

All the while we always burn essential oils to make the room smell more fruity or herbish. And I've always loved my greentea, pomogerate, blackberry apple, line dried clothes and spring air.

OK OK it's coming, just gimme a minute - I added a few drops of those oils into the steaming part of the iron where it keeps the water. You've done it again Alf!

Now my newly washed and ironed pillow cases and quilt cover all smell soooooooo nice. Try it people!

oh crab!!

Last week Mom sms-ed that she had cooked 5 mud crabs for the family. She was sorry that sis and I had missed out. How dare she threw that in my face when she knew that crabs are one of my fav seafood.

Luckily she had taught me how to cook before. For that I think I can forgive her. (",)

So here in Melbourne, sis and I bought one mud crab - yes, only ONE - as they are very expensive! $40 a kilo. The one we got was slightly more than 1k. And that kiam-siap (stingy in Hokkien) stupid woman (she's wasn't a lady OK) couldn't knock off 50 cents. She insisted that I pay the full price $40.50.

On my way home I sms-ed Mom about this. Her reply was "Oh that means it's RM120 lor?". Yea yea ma, I know! That's why we only bought one. To share among FOUR people.

Crab made my evening... Yum yum...

Ah crap.... I am missing Mom and her cooking already. See, it's finger-snapping easy for her to make me miss her badly.

Get ready to laugh

Melbourne International Comedy Festival 4-29 April 2007

See you there!

who needs a hero when one can have all the HEROES?

Just can't help loving more and more of HEROES week after week. Love the way the story unfolds - I think the scripwriter(s) is doing a fabulous job at keeping all the fans in suspense. I really enjoy being told a small secret each week. I learn extra bits and pieces of the story weekly and it keeps me going back to watch it.

And who wouldn't have guessed (except perhaps a dummy like me?) that the offspring of 2 heroes has superpower himself? And it was a good old surprise to me when his little fingers magically repaired a supposedly out-of-order public phone, without being busted by his swinging-by-the-thread Kitty-Pryde (one of X-Men) spin-off father.

Apart from I dunno how to download the episodes off the internet, I also don't want to do that. First of all, I'll have too much to watch at one go, and that would really be so congruent with my already sloopy and lazy lifestyle. Secondly like I said, I like on-going suspense. It makes me look forward to it.

Now can any hero help me with my homework? Anyone?

树欲停而风不止

子欲养而亲不在

读一读这一篇报导吧。

然后，准备一盒kleenex；还有叶雯凤的部落格-妈妈哦。

"妈，你才刚刚离开我而已，我已经感觉到很心痛了。很痛，真的很痛，我好像不能呼吸似的。

你走的那一刻，我的左手握着你的左手，我的右手不停地抚摸着你的肩膀，我不知道你有感觉到我在你身边吗，我只一直不断地呼唤你“妈妈哦...妈妈...妈妈哦...我是小凤啊...妈妈...”。最终，你的呼吸和心脏都停止了，我僵硬在一旁，我哭不出来。

阿勉说，叫我别碰你的身体，让你毫无牵挂地离去，不然你会很辛苦的。我想抱你，我很久没有抱你了，手术后的你水肿，身体又插满管子，我最多只能握着你的手和肩膀而已。

妈... 那种心痛到哭不出来的感觉真的很难受。阿勉和弟弟叫我坚强些，别让你的灵魂看到我在伤心。可是，我真的想用你对我的担心和牵挂把你给留下来啊。

妈... 我知道我是自私，我真的真的真的很不舍得你走..."

我读完第一篇后就不敢再读下去，眼泪已经不住地决堤。
