Ham of a jam - CNY traffic woes for this Ah-Mat

I really really cannot tahan this anymore!!!!! Every Chinese New Year that rolls around, it gives me a bloody headache. Not only that a wallet-ache and also butt-ache! Sitting in the car all the time so many hours liao today! Just now, I went to fetch the two kids back from school lor at around 12.10pm. Jam jam jam jam jam jam jam (Malaysians use the term jam for traffic jam) all the way to Jared's school. Then hor....outside I see got jam some more. So, I thought I smarter than everyone else and tried to find another route to Joshua's school. Longer but I was hoping this route wouldn't be quite as jammed up. So, I go. Kanasai! (er....this is a Chinese swear word) No need very far I travel, I see cars everywhere! NO NEED TO WORK WAN AH???!!! Go back to work lah!!! So instead of short jam, I went for the long jam! If there's one thing that makes me lose my cool, it's traffic jam. Takes me 1 hour 12 minutes to get to Joshua's school! Some more today Friday, all the Muslims come out and pray, right? They don't know how to park properly and think that it's their father's road some more! The roundabout turn into a parking space for them not enough! They park outside, inside, left, right, before and after the roundabout wan! MPPJ or DBKL (local authorities for PJ and KL) say want to take away all those illegal stalls in Kota Damansara today, right? Bloody hell, take away the small stalls set up at the roundabout first lah!!! No wor....these people eat at the traffic lights oblivious to our woes! Where got people eat at the roundabout wan????!!!!! Eeeeyyyeeerrrrrr!!!! Really want to find a watermelon and throw it off a building! OK. OK OK OK.......I'm cool. I'm cool. Now, I worry because I have not bought CNY clothes for the kids. Considering the kind of traffic condition just now, I don't think I can expect to find smooth-flowing traffic anywhere lah today. Afterwards, I am going to attempt to drive to a popular shopping mall to get the clothes for the kids. I dare not wait until weekend....lagi mati (worse still) then. Not even the longkang (drains) is free! Every single road, tunnel, bridge, street, side-road....everything jammed up today.

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
