Prompt: Lost With Two Items and Birthday Update

Today's writing prompt: I am lost in the woods and I only have 2 items with me. 

Yup, that was the prompt. Just that. Why am I am doing this?! #lol 

Well, if I was lost in the woods, which I won't be because I wouldn't go near the woods alone unless someone throws me in there against my will which is, by the way, a crime 😁, and I have only two items with me, it would be:

  • A knife
  • A lighter
With a knife, I can cut down anything I find in the woods. It's a big-gish knife, alright? 😓😉😝And I believe that I can eat grass if I have to. Won't be the best meal on earth but one's got to do what one's got to do to stay alive.

As for the lighter, I can survive the dead of the night and I don't like the dark. So, I think it's the best way to survive. I don't know if a knife and lighter can get me water but if I can find my way around with a fire, I might find a source for water. 

Man, this writing prompt thing is hard, isn't it? 

Hang on....scratch all of that. I would be lost in the woods with 2 items and the items are:
  1. An air-conditioned/heated luxury camping car stocked sky high with food and drinks
  2. Navigator
There you go. Perfect. Hahaha....

Anyway, April 1st in this family is always a big thing because it's my sons' (both) and mother's birthdays and we celebrated it the best way we can. A meal with the fam, cake, a small gathering with the young ones clamoring all over my sister's house, couches, stairs and anything else climbable, and then a huge arse buffet with the boys. 

And I bought them a violin, by the way. Because they've asked for a violin before because they thought it was an intriguing instrument. Being the skeptic that I am, I waited it out. 

As with anything else that comes out of their mouths, it might be a passing fascination that would be over before I can say "Yeah right". But they continued to like the instrument without bugging me about buying it, thinking that I wouldn't even if they asked for it. 

Well, as it turns out, they both still liked the violin and VIOLA, we have two violinist wannabes in the house now. 

I just hope the neighbors can't figure out which house all that scratchy noise pollution is coming from. 😱😅😎💭

Otherwise, it's adieus from me. Happy TGIF, peeps!!!

XOXO,

BONUS: These were the babies I raised. Now they're 21 and 19. Don't even start with me with the "How time flies" thing, OK? #LOL #puh-leez

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,...
