Times flies

I was looking at some old photo albums I had online and I came across one that we took when we went out for dinner with Fong. A bunch of us (3 girls) were treating her + D for their recent "shaadi". That was around mid-March. Can't believe its been 2 years already!!!
And now she's about to have a "baccha".

Me getting old!
Me want to go party!
Me wants piggy to party with me!
Me don't care about moo moo!! haha

I was trying to get a hold of Glo today. That little bum, hiding away and watching TV.

Grumble

Stupid junk, bad performance, stupid things to take care of.
Thats my reaction after an unproductive day of work. And its not because I was slacking, far from it.

Took a look at a friend's PSP today. Very very good resolution. I was watching part of Spiderman, which came with the PSP. It was nice for a small portable. It looked bigger than I remembered (when I first played with it in Tokyo) and the bad thing about watching movies on it is that there is nowhere to dock it.
Oh, my friend uploaded some pictures on the PSP. So much better than Ipod photo. Picture looks bigger, color is better and you can zoom in. Thats the one thing that bugs me most about Ipod photo, you can only see it as big as the size of the screen with no zoom. PSP, you can zoom and go left/right, almost like a hand drag. :)
Now, they need a way to plug out from PSP to TV or something. I am sure it'll be there soon.
Hah.. read an article about guys using it to hold their "ham bhin". =p

Met friend's gf today, she's so skinny and tiny, makes me look like a fat cow beside her. Hehe..
But I can't starve or diet, so I guess I'll stay fat.
I need a vacation or I need to go home.

Happy Easter!

Happy Happy Easter!
Eat lots of eggs! hehe.

Its sooo rainy here. Gloooomy all day!
I don't think I am going to see my cute guy friend from school for sometime. So sad. =(
I'm quite a scatter-brain today.

One person I know said this over the weekend. This was with reference to a guy friend who's super duper nice, esp to her. She said "if I wanted a dog, I would just go and buy a dog". I was like "WOAH!!!".
Funny to hear it coming from her, because she's a nice person.

Different thought: I think some people rub me the wrong way. Or maybe I am just being extra defensive. Anyways, this person knows me pretty well and just the things/way things are said, makes me go "are you deliberately trying to make me mad?"

I heard piggy is ok again and went out sat night huh? I had a spy planted at your house!! haha.
Btw, I saw a pic of someone you met last time I came back. *wink*. Ask me.

Long time no talky

I got a call from a friend who I haven't spoken with in ages. Well, ok I do see her online every now and then, maybe like once in a few months or so, but I haven't seen her since 1998 and never talked to her besides IM since then.

We went to school together way back... when we were kids. Hehe..
And it was interesting because I have someone else besides my family I can talk in my mother tongue with. At first, it started out strange, with both of us speaking in English and her with a little tiny bit of accent. Then, I made the switch and she responded.. hee hee

Its funny, how your subconsciousness comes into play. I remember once asking my bf something in my mother tongue and he totally didn't understand. Then it registered that he doesn't understand, so I reverted back to english. :)

Congratulations!!

Congratulations to Karen + Michael!
Congratulations to Fran + Helen!

I found out in the span of 3 hrs that these 2 lovely couples recently got engaged. I haven't had a chance to talk to Karen yet, but I talked to Fran already. So romantic, his proposal. =)

^_^

Stressed

Yes, I am. Again!!
Work's been crazy lately and I don't see myself not working crazy for the next couple of months. Seems like I got a lot of stuff I need to improve/work on. Makes me think about other career options.

I'm just so tired these days. I feel really sleepy all the time. Maybe my lack of sleep is catching up to me.

So, I've been keeping an eye on tickets, to Toronto. Well, for those that don't know yet, Jetsgo went down and the other airline vultures are just scooping in. The tickets have risen considerably, so that its as much as high 500 - low 600. Insanity, considering that low $400 were too expensive when I was checking for tickets before.
And gas?? Holy, it costs an arm + leg right now. I need to get a hybrid car.

Over the last 2 wkends, I went ice-skating and roller blading. Am I getting any better at it? Don't think so. Its fun for sometime, I don't think I can get too crazy about it. One of my friends is asking me if I want to enrol in a ice-hockey team and I wouldn't mind trying it out, except I don't think I have the time to go so far for practice and game couple of times a week. I barely have time to sleep.

Last but not least - I neeed money. Help? :)

So homey

I'm so homey this weekend. Well, the weekend is not over yet, so yesterday and today.

Last night, didn't go anywhere. Had "da bin lo" at my place. They couldn't find a split bowl so we ended up with 2 bowls, which turned out pretty good I must say. There were soo much food and I had all the beef and fish balls I wanted. It was sooo yummy. Then, the rest of them gathered to play mahjong. Now, I understand how people just sit for hours playing mahjong. I understand the game a bit more now, but I think I am missing out a lot of the fun lost in translations when they trash talk in Chinese.

Today, is my lazy day. Mostly bumming at home, doing some work, sleeping, surfing. Wasn't tempted to step out until much later. But most ppl were OOT and too lazy to drive all the way to west side. Haha... notice the laziness theme. I wish I went to Vancouver today. I haven't been there in ages and I wanna have good food there.

Well, so I went to find a Hindi movie. Yes, I have been craving to watch an indian movie for sometime. Its fun to watch. For those who think its stupid, with overacting and people dancing, yes, there are those, but its fun for me. Analogy for the chinese peeps. You watch some chinese movies, they always have a side, prolly silly funny character and some really silly acting and jokes. But you grew up with it, so its amusing to you.
Sorry, got side-tracked. So, I went to find a movie, beside this indian grocery store I usually go to, it was insanely packed with people crawling all over the place. I think I picked a bad time to go. Anyways, so I was getting some weird looks but no stares. I find a couple of interesting new releases that I want to watch and then I find out that they are out on all the DVDs for the movies I want. Only VHS left. If I were in TO, I'd pick it up without a second thought. Doesn't matter that much to me and VHS is cheaper. But no VHS player here and roomie doesn't have one either. So, while I was driving out, I thought, maybe I could borrow one. So, called up 2 ppl and one of them had it. (See all the trouble I am willing to go through. I really wanted to watch a hindi movie) but since I was already driving, I think I remembered seeing where another indian grocery store was. I dropped by there and sure enough, there was another indian movie rental place connected to it as well and they had plenty of DVDs left.
:)

The 2 DVDs I got:
1. Raincoat - Aishwarya Rai, Ajay Devgan
2. Swades - Shahrukh Khan
