Taken For Granted

I. JUST. CAN'T. TAKE. IT. ANYMORE. OK, just imagine you have a really busy schedule and you're consistently caught in a whirlwind. The only time you get to read the papers is when you're sitting at the john. But because you're a nice person, you said OK when someone asked you help them perform some transactions. You don't see how you're going to fit it into your schedule but you don't have the heart to say 'no'. You organize some of the stuff and got things going a little. Now, things got stuck a little cause the schedule conflict cannot be ignored - it's screaming at you! You inform that person that you're sorry and would it be OK if they made a trip somewhere to collect the documents and then deliver it to a place. Wah, you know what or not? The fler got the fooking cheek to say, "OK lah, OK lah! Hopeless lah, ask you to do things!" Wah-lan-eh, right there and then, my blood went past boiling point. Why the hell do I have to do it for you? I am doing you a favor and the least you can do is, not say thank you, but to be appreciative and then lend a helping hand lah! And the fler really got nothing else better to do anyway and push everything on my plate....for what?! I question myself sometimes, the things that I pile on top of my plate. Actually, I did not intentionally pile this up on my plate. I did not have the heart to say 'no' because they're not familiar with the process and I've always done it for them. But that a darn sorry excuse to take me for granted! What do I look like.....like I live a life of sheer luxury, picking diamonds every other day and jetsetting around the world without a care?! Ludicrous! I am so done being a stupid idiot. And nobody calls me 'hopeless' without a good reason! NOBODY!

Stargazer - Stretch Those Sides

I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

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...
