hahaha reading my post yesterday actually made me laugh.. i swear, i'm such a child. suchhhh a brat! i wonder when i'll grow up and start acting my age... its really my way or the highway, or a tantrum of coz ;)
ok ok today i'm in a good mood so i figured writing about my nice weekend would be more apt as compared to yesterday while i was fuming for no real reason..
lets seeee... my weekend started on Friday coz i was on leave! wooohoooo! but sigh, thats the end of my leave for a while so thats a shortlived happiness.. oh well anyhooo, on friday i went to prawn's, dragged him out of bed and made myself comfortable.. haha ive got this thing, i cant see someone asleep while im bloody awake! i snoozed for a bit, while prawn sat grumpily on the chair and used the computer =) then we watched King Arthur!! i'm really a ulu mamulu when it comes to movies :( i havent watched tons of 'em! its quite embarrassing and i'm going to make it a point to watch one good DVD every week! this week shall be... King Kong!! =)
then at night i went for dance class like a goot girl and then we went to send Adrian off at the airport! Friday kinda ended there coz i had no energy to do anything, although techinically i slept all day..
oh well, tis ok coz saturday i woke up feeling quite energized! :) went to the gym, then we went to babysit tristonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!! the best saturday in the world!!!!!!! steph had gone to KL and aunty nancy was alone with the kiddo so bhav, ragi, shawn and i went to relieve her for a few hours! we brought him to united square and had a blast la! the cutie fell asleep towards the end, IN MY ARMSS (there is NOTHING in this world that makes me happier i swear, ok ok fine maybe one or two other things but sigh..) and we took him home soon after.. of course once he touched base, he woke up and was ready to be entertained! bhav and her ever ticking biological clock, kept him busy for a while and he was tired out in an hour!
shawn and i went to MS after that to meet the rest and we went to obar!! obar turned out to be super duper fun and i really enjoyed it!! got to a nice high and cheryl and i were doing our usual crazy moves and viv and ham had a whole dance-0ff thing which was freaking amazing!!! the place wasnt too crowded and we had a nice bunch of us there, so i think most of us ended up having a pretty good time! but i had no energy for chillies so kabee, shawn and i went to jalan kayu to complete the unhealthy night! =)
sunday, the tfa bunch went to anita's house in ulu bukit panajng to surprise raji for her bday! although she admitted later to being truly surprised, her reaction to our "SURPRISEEEEEEEEEE" was classic! she had opened the door cooly, and said "oh" (i swear just like how you'd read it now), and then said "come in guys"... hahahha that was it, and we were all singing happy birthday with a lit cake all!! so cute laaa.. but we all know she was pretending!! ;) muacksss, we love you raji!!!!!!!!!!!
then in the night, a few of us went to Khandi bar in Clarke Quay to enjoy the benefits of Prawn's cannery carddd.. opening a bottle at a fancy bar on a Sunday was not really how i had envisioned my night, but i guess it could have been worse.. :)
yesterday, i went to east coast to do my work! sigh, the beach is just so magical.. sitting on the bench, with the breeze and the lapping waves made doing work a whole lot easier.. ok fine not easier but at least i wasnt sitting at some boring cubicle with equally exciting people around.. *looks around sadly now* and when the sun set, we sat on the breakwater by the moonlit water and just spoke.. spoke about everything and nothing.. it was just.. sigh, amazing.. i LOVEDDDDDDD yesterday :) and i also slept by 10pm.. perfect innit!
so yeah that sort of is the summary of whatever's happened so far! hope this week's just as exciting! ;)
see yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

i had myself a decent weekend, a long one at that, but somehow i cant seem to find anything nice to say. Probably coz i'm sitting here scowling like the 5 year old that i am, and in a horrible mood. Don't even ask me why. You'll probably get my famous "if looks could kill, and if they don't you'd still wish you were dead" stare and wish you didnt bother trying anyway.

arrrgghhh why won't you wake up and pick up the phoneeeeeeeeee!

ok sorry about that, my mind needed a voice, and since i cant be screaming random things out at my very unexciting office, i thought shouting it out here might help. ok i'm gonna try calling again..

freak of freaking nature laaaa!!! sigh..

:(

ive got a trillion things id love to whine about but this is so not the place for it.

Im out, before i live to regret anything else.

im utterly and flutterly bored. yeah that itself doesnt make any sense, so imagine how the rest of the post is gonna be.. Im at work and i have nothing to do, officially. Key word being, officially. of course i've got my shit to clean up, from way back.. but you know how when its alredy been put off once, twice or thrice or whatever comes after that, it just becomes habitual. Yeah, so i reallllllllyyyyyy cant bring myself to actually finish it all today.. even in my vow to complete something today, i'll try to procastinate the task giving myself the famous excuse of 'later'. Thus the decision to blog, coz at least that way i look like i'm doing work, since i'm typing furiously =)

blah blah blah.. i'm so sleepyyyy :( and to think ive been sleeping relatively early since Mon, coz i reckon the circles under my eye are bringing a whole new meaning to the word 'dark'. Sigh, i hope more sleep helps coz i refuse to put myself under any knife, and creams and gel work my wallet more than my poor eye.. oh well, we'll see.. and ive even promised myself more sleep than partying this weekend, so thats a good start, no?

things i forgot to elaborate on in my last post.. the gym at rasa sentosa!! wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. the treadmill and bicycle and the cardio machines basically had a friggin tv installed on the screen! so each machine had their own tv! and hello, excuse me, they even had HBO and all the cable tv channels!! so all i had to do was plug in my ear phones to the treadmill and lo and behold! i was entertained for the next half an hour! i could jog continuously without getting bored, and i was actually reluctant to stop! sigh i wish planet fitness would follow suit but i guess that really is asking for too much la.. but i'd go back there just for the gym man, i swear! oh and for the yummy food, heh. what an irony. *sigh*

oh and clubbing at dxo on friday night! haha that was seriously friggin entertaining. i don't understand why people do that to themselves. The club's semi-dead.. most sane people are just sipping their drinks quietly at the side waiting for the club to liven up and the music to turn normal.. The dance floor, obviously, is empty.. and then suddenly from no where a group of freaks, with absolutely NO SENSE OF RHYTHM NOR STYLE, bounce happily to the dance floor and do some awkward (i jus realised the spelling of this word is excatly what it means, heh) moves which they sadly try to pass of as dancing.. sigh, and then this 'normal at first glance but an absolute disaster at second' freakshow, a guy mind you, comes along and does these mind-blowing but i mean it in a disturbing way, hip thrusts and all sort of movements that i swear were beyond gay.. sigh, we were very well entertained by all the different characters i must admit. and i'm sure even we are as embarassing when we're drunk off our asses.. and i know it was SUPER mean of me to go on about them like that but hey i'm just voicing out whats already in your mind, so don't act all innocent ok..


went for a spa try-out thing yesterday, some publicity stunt of theirs. They were offering free foot spa, back massage or some eye therapy thing so i decided to try their foot spa.. It was very mediocre so i wasnt willing to sign up for some $2,000 package which they very cleverly disguised by saying its only $33 per massage if you sign up and only $59 per month if you pay by credit card. Of coz they fail to mention that you'll be paying that sum for the next 3 years! and they never spell out the whole amount you have to pay, they break it down so it sounds affordable.. like telling me its $168 for 3 massages and 2 FREE spas and then slowly adding how i have to get a minimum of 12 sessions but never once telling me how much is $168 x 12. Sigh, such a treacherous industry i say! of course, i kept telling her i'd have to think about it and slowly the ball came into my court, and she kept askin how much would i'd be willing to pay if i were to sign up today. she was obsessed with the word today, and that made me frown even more. i finally gave her some whack excuse that she had no choice but to buy, and then let me off the hook but of course she said she'd call me back over the weekend, since i needed to think and all.. sigh, as hard as her job is, and as much as her livelihood depends on it, i'm not caving in. i don't think i want to be spending so much on some massage which i dont even know if i'll enjoy and if i pick the credit card option (which will probably be the case since 2k doesnt exactly grow in my back yard) i refuse to be indebted for the next 3 years! so yeah, sorry lady!

anyhooo i promised y'all the video of my doggie at the beach innit.. here goes!! this is when he first came close to the water, so he's like testing the waters literally ;) check out the way he gallops at the end, coz he's just so happy! and his retrieving skills- when i threw a stick into the water! sooo adorable! =) as shawn said, i sound like some proud mother.. guess i am, since i'm the bitch ;) aight im off, muacks everyone! holla if ya'll want more videos/pics of my sweet lil creature!

heleuu! some quick updates i couldnt resist wasting a lil time for!

1) For the new and currently juicy "topic on the bloG (block, blog. geddddit haha)": my 'lets make malini a good person' campaign.
Lets just say we've raised awareness but thats about as far as we've got. Im still spurting out nasty rubbish. Sob. But like how the diet starts tomorrow, so will the biting of the tongue, kay! =) but heyyyy you need at least one bad cop in the group, don't cha! *wiggles bum and disappears into the black space*

2) (just like how you have to take the famous elephant out of the fridge, i shall wiggle back in from that space and continue)
my week update!!
- was on leave most of last week and with the parents out of town i had myself a real BREAK! woo hoo! stayed over as many times as i could and even had the gang over for dinner on sunday! including lil triston!! soooooooooooooooo cute! im glad y'all enjoyed the food guys! and for those who weren't there and who assumed i cooked a storm up for them, continue that nice thought please. at least let me be able to cook in your disillusioned heads :) and for those who know i can barely fry an egg without setting the whole kitchen on fire, shaddap and don't try to influence the nice disillusioned people out there!
-16th of September shall be marked in my calender as a VERY IMPORTANT date *wink*
-wed was spent at ladies night at Obar where almost all of us who went can't recall much. go figure.
-thursday i was on leave! brought my darling simba to the beach and had ourselves a fab time. my dog loves the beach and if i show you the videos, you'll be convinced too, that he belongs there! i'll upload the video soon!
-friday was Kabee's bday at DXO and chillies, and i was more tired than anything so i wasn't my usual hyper self. Drinks at DXO are as good as drinking the water from the nevermind.. so your HIGHness was not present at all that day. for me, at least. *winks at sho*
-sat/sun was spent at rasa sentosa! *blush* by the way, the food there, is HEAVENLY! its a must try! just save up all year before going kay =)

And so I had a weekend that seems to have brought me to hell and back.. well, ive had worse weekends sure, but this was quite an experience as well..

Well as we all know, a fact probably drilled into our skull by now, everything happens for a damn reason. And that damn reason, we’re sometimes fortunate enough to realise within days of the turn of events.

I wouldn’t say I’m glad everything that happened, happened. In fact I wish it didn’t have to turn out that way.. But I can safely say that the helplessness and tears shed were not in vain. It made many of us realise so many vital things, so many facts we already know but just needed a push or a rude wake up call to be aware of completely. Some of us have broken bones to keep us awake; some, nearly broken spirits. Well, the broken spirit was mended pretty easily, but I cant say the same for the bone, heh. Poor you :(

I personally have come to recognize my need for a personality revamp.. Haha.. I’ve been this person for too long.. My unforgivable habits have even been labelled as “a Malini”- so normal and even pardonable; My impatience, disrespectful and rude ways, sarcasm, cold exterior, quick to put you down remarks (especially if you’re a loved one), cannot be bothered attitude, emo-less’ness, sharp tongued liners which cut deep, actions which would probably reduce me to a pile of nothingness if it were done to me and of course my famous bratty tantrum throwing frenzies. Oh and that’s just to name a few.

It took me this weekend and morning, to realise that I cant go on being this person when I genuinely care about people as much as I do. I have a problem, I am unable to express my love like a normal human being. I reckon the more I care for you the nastier I think I can be. Its weird I know, and worse still its been instilled in me for years now. I’ve hurt countless people along the way, made my close bunch accustomed to my way of being so much so, my behaviour has been accepted and is characteristic to me. If they need a bitch for the show, they know just who to call. But at the same time, I’ve been told I’m big- hearted, and caring to a point of putting my happiness above others, basically things you wouldn’t associate the person I described earlier with! So how can someone apparently nice, actually be capable of having such a mean streak in them? Some say that’s why they love me, some say it’ll be the death of them. Now I’ll have my say.. It time to change.

I really have hurt too many loved ones thus far. Its like their punishment for loving me.. It became apparent to me this weekend which brought about this realisation. I told myself I’m going to make a conscious effort henceforth, and I can only hope that this determination I feel right now sees me through. If all goes well, you may actually be able to have a conversation with me in the future, without me biting your head off and spitting it into a pile of other chewed ones. Haha nah, I’m not really all that bad, but I know I can be better. Cross your fingers for me, wont you =) And don’t worry all this doesn’t apply to you, if I didn’t love you already. Tough luck ;)

Ps- after spewing all that, my “I’m going to be on the next Oprah” crap on top, I just muttered (under my breath so that’s the slight difference) something rude and sarcastic to my dad who’d asked me an innocent question. Sigh, this is gonna be one difficult change, y’all.

ok no.. this is like damnnn weird.. ok so im in a Korean headed company, samsung actually, but that doesnt mean my internet browser suddenly becomes Korean does it? like all my options are in these weird, unrecognizable characters.. they look like chinese characters but i have slightly more intellect than you give me credit for, so i know its not chinese! :) hah i'm not like SOME UNMENTIONABLE SPECIES who know not, the difference between anyone but themselves. its like if you're dark you're indian. and if you're fair and claim to be indian, you're just.. lying. haha okok i guess i'm still traumatised from my childhood days, where the other, obviously non-indian, kids made me the black teletubby just coz i was indian *sniff* guess i've bore a grudge ever since then aye! hahaha, jez kiddinggggggggg! ok how did we get from these 'weird characters' i have as my web options now, to skin colour again? *blink blink* once again, JUST FOR THE RECORDS, i'm kiddingggg =) dun set fire to my home please.

sigh i had internet access when i started typing this damn post but i kinda got d/ced along the way.. but i guess ill jus blog anyway and just post it later after work or smthin.. sorry for that peice of unwanted info.. i just felt like, you know, keepin you in the loop :)

ive got nothing much to blog about.. shawn did a great job telling you about the weekend so thats that.. 'cept he failed to mention our scary experience after watching the movie "1408"!! after watching the movie, through my shawl or fingers or shawn's arm even, with shaking knees and a rather disturbed mind we made our way to the exit. We took a while to actually leave our seat (re-read: shaking knees) so by the time we made it to the exit everyone had left the theatre. As we approached the door, we were joking about how it'd be funny if the door didnt open (if you'd watched the movie you'd relate to this not so funny fact) and you can imagine how the laughter turned to a semi gasp when we realised the door was stuck!! hamren's laughter turned to a nervous giggle i swear!! hahaha shawn kicked the door open and i swear we all just ran out! ok so now i'm laughing about it but my nerves were a lil frazzled that day! but its one of those 'u need to be there' moments.. you're probably rating me quite high on the freak scale now, but yeah it was freaky ok! :(

oh well.. God's either cruel or thinks he's real funny.. coz i was jus bragging, like two days ago, about how its been a while since i've actually fallen ill.. and guess what.. i'm sick la.. sigh. why do i only wish the best on myself ah *rolls eyes* argghhh well i guess this time my doctor's visit might actually be one that doesnt warrant some oscar-award worthy acting for once, so thats good at least :)

yesterday was a nice chill out nite..wit ragi (till the housewives got desperate, tsk)and shola.. vivian and shawn came to join us too! sho and i sat at starbucks and spoke about people who just don't know how to recognize and treasure something good even when its been taken away from them! sigh.. they weren't joking when they said life aint easy aye.. but we all know you're stronger than this k, and its about time you realised your own worth! muacks!

aighttt only managed to post this a day after writing it, wanted to update it a lil but i cant be arsed, heh. enjoy the day everyone!

So instead of our favourite, homegrown writer, Malini, i shall attempt to take that hotseat today to provide you with the details of the weekend AND some umm.. humour.Since i am nervous, let us start off with a joke. They always say its better. (Who they is though i've not figured out yet).

Joke 1:

Chicken and the Egg

A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg, looking a bit ticked off, grabs the sheet, rolls over and says ... Well, I guess we finally answered "THAT question!"

If you didn't get that.. my failed attempt then. *snigger* Anyhow, the weekend was nice. Mal, finally back and a lil' free-er having finished her dance performances here and in Penang and in KL had the entire weekend to do what she used to do best. Have fun with her close friends! Ah drink. Dance. Laugh. Cry. Whatever but hell, a weekend OUT! Wouldn't you know however, even clubbing and having fun with friends takes up quite a bit of energy and by the time 1 am came at DXO, in the midst of celebrating Rathi's birthday, she had already sat next to me, eyes reddish, face flushed from dancing with Nisha like a crazyperson and said, "i'm tired". It was fun while it lasted that night though. Rathi turned 20 and can she and her best friend Shikin partaayy or whaat. Haha among the Chivas, laughter, music and dancing, i'd say it was a nice birthday celebration after all!

Saturday was a full day out! Mal got me to follow her to her salon at Wheelock where she thought i might get something done with my hair. How manly i say. Anyhow, when i got there, her stylist and i decided i was gonna let my hair grow somemore before doin anything to it. So Mal took the chair and i headed out to explore Orchard for the next 3 hrs, relieved that nothing was gonna happen to my hair! Everyone was in town! Steph, Simran, Triston, Reena, Lynn, Shoba *as usual 2 hrs later* and a bunch of other people whose names i can never remember and lets hope they dont read this post :) Steph, Simran and i Walked around FEP for a bit and i introduced Triston to Frankenstein who guards Cheeks. Or Lips...? I can never keep track. Anyhow, as Triston was trying to grab a belt from behind me, i watched as Steph and Simran asked about suspenders. I can't remember why though. Oh well. Triston likes shiny objects and metal, for some reason, is delicious. Steph, Sim and TJ left and Sho joined me and forced me to shop with her for a bit. But not before i dragged her ass to an electronics shop to get her hp checked out. And wouldn't you know it.. Shoba's hp batt had been SO overcharged that it looked pregnant when the nice lady took it outta the phone and exclaimed "hahaha your battely plegnant ah!!". I turned to Sho and gave her this look that basically said "uh huh. Why did i expect something like this... and how'd i know you wouldn't have known anything was wrong.. GROWL".

At night, it was a combination of 2 birthday parties. I picked Mal up and as usual, as she strode toward the cab in her party attire, she simply took my breath away... We picked Shoba up next and we were on our way! First, we headed to Attica to celebrate Carrie's b day party. No really. You're not allowed to smoke in that club but the way they blow smoke outta the ceiling and into everyone's faces, why the heck can't we smoke in there then? It's the same difference. Yeah yeah i know it's 'healthy' smoke or whatever but shadap n lemme whine a 'lil won't ya? Anyways, Carrie had gotten the VIP place right next to the dance floor and a few bottles of Vodka and so on. As i watched on among the dancing, photo taking and the traumatising of a few of us guys with Jen giving lapdances to some of the girls, i spotted a couple of bigass bottles next to us. 1.5 litres worth of vodka and champagne. Whoa. Sho grabbed one. Mal grabbed another and i looked quite pathetic with my normal, minute glass next to their bottles as we took a photo. Headed to Mos, then, Chillies after that and though i was quite out of it (i get tired a lot easier these days too!), we danced on till the end of the night, or morning light, whichever you'll have. It really does wonders to complete a loong clubbing night off by dancing with someone special whom you absolutely adore.

Sunday was a nice day out. Ham, Cheryl, Mal and i caught 1408 and people; if you want a badass thriller, especially if you haven't watched one in a while, this is it for you. It was fantastic! It'll leave your hair standing and with something to think about at the end of it all. We headed to Newton wanting to have dinner there but it was closed for some reason so we went to Clarke Quay instead and grabbed some really good pizzas. Headed home after and to wrap up, helluva nice weekend i'd say. A mixture of friends, music, dancing, drinks, chillin out and we even caught a movie. Yeeepp, nice weekend indeed.

I have never ending thoughts that cross my mind. The purposes to which, when i figure out, i shall promptly be sure to inform you. Until then, here's one that came up over the weekend that i'll share with you. If i know nothing and therefore, everything from then on is something novel, or something valuable, and if wisdom is considered to be not knowing anything because it is only then that you learn, then why is the term wisdom given to men who're known to know much and not to the fools that are known to know nothing?

Here's a second joke i enjoyed that i just HAD to share! :o)

Joke 2:

Chicken and the Horse

Once upon a time there was a horse and a chicken who were good friends. They lived on a farmyard with lots of other animals and were very happy. One day, while they were playing near the farm's pond, the horse stepped into a hole of quicksand. The horse rapidly sank and was yelling for his friend, the chicken, to save him. The chicken thought for a minute, then ran back to the farmhouse, and jumped into the farmer's 735csi BMW. Luckily, the keys were in the ignition, and the chicken managed to start the car, and put it in gear. It raced over to the sinkhole, where the horse had almost disappeared by now. The smart chicken tied a rope around the back of the BMW and threw the other end around the front legs of the horse. The chicken hopped back in the driver's seat and stepped on the gas. Ever so slowly, the horse eased out of the quicksand and jumped to safety. The horse, still on shaky legs, stuttered: "You just saved my life. Thank you!" The chicken just said, "Don't mention it - That's what friends are for!!" They returned the BMW and went out to dinner together in the barn yard.

A few days later, the horse got up from a good night's rest, and heard some muffled cries for help coming from the backyard. The horse followed the sounds and came upon a terrible scene. There was his best friend, the chicken, stuck in a hole of quicksand! The sand was already up to its neck-feathers and the cries for help had almost stopped. The horse took a quick look around: No rope in sight And the farmer had gone to town with his BMW. What to do? The horse took a deep breath and spread his body and legs out over the hole. His member was dangling down right above the poor chicken. "Here, my friend, grab my thingie and I will pull you to safety!". With its last bit of energy, the chicken grabbed a hold of the big horse-thingie and the horse straightened its body, pulling the chicken from its trap. With one big step, both were on solid ground and safe. The chicken slumped down on the ground, exhausted: "Now You saved my life, my friend!!" The horse just smiled.
And what is the moral of this story?
If you're hung like a horse, you don't need a BMW to pick up chicks.

Its a Monday.
Have a good one!
