i finally removed them stitches today...approximately 4 days after i was due at the specialist. hehe.
the damned doc ignited my feelings of apprehension when he asked me to lie down. DAMN man...i never ever lie flat down if i can help it. i think it showed on my face so he re-adjusted the bed and told me to "just sit up okay already". hehe.
then when the nurse tugged and tugged and tugged at the black threads...i couldnt stop smiling to myself cos obviously the stitches are almost weeks old d right? then her question came, "sudah berapa lama ni?" HAHA...couldnt help it, i laughed and told her watching her mute struggle was pretty funny (probably reassured her that more brutality can be tolerated) and so she handled me like a chunk of beef flank in the butcher chop, and ta daaaa...all came out. then nursie just ferociously sprayed on the 'liquid' plaster onto the wound and MAN that stung :P
because i got hurt at a nightspot, the doctor jokingly asked me, "so, went back there again ah!" then he told me that i shoulda cut myself at a lower position above the ankle, cos "you're that type ma, can put tattoo to cover it la!"
$%&*#@$... yea, so funny. its killin me. ehem ehem. BUT to his credit i did think that the possibility of a tattoo was a pretty decent suggestion... but i'd have to cover the entire calf with disney world or something. ish ish! ISH.
i think this is it fer now...will update soonest. xoxoxoxo.

Baptised - Jayden Benedict - my Godson
All in all an eventful and definitely a very meaningful day for the whole family :) Check out the few pics below...captioned to hit the point home. For more peeks, visit Kristie's blog.
Mummy with Jayden Benedict (check out the ji-gong moves from the martial arts sifu), Kenneth, James, Kristie, Papa, Me, Kathy, Krischelle, Tita Kim & Christian
The baptism ritual: wetting tai ko's head with holy water beneath the sign of the cross and the annointing with the oil. Think Jayden was pretty amused with the water activity...
"Baptised! I am apparently now the holiest and saintliest of you all...WAHAHA..."
Mummy Jay, the big man himself - Jayden Benedict, and his Godmother, ME. I'm his beloved auntie janice & Godmum. Gosh, I'm like 3/4s of a surrogate mother! I'm Jayden's fairy Godmother....I'm his Godma. Wanna tell you a secret: I've been duty-bound to serve as Godmama. Did I mention I'm officially his Godmother? HAHAHAHA

banged outta luck
You know the saying: “when it rains, it pours”? Yea that kinda happened to me in the last 2 weeks and shit hit the fan. If you've seen Chicago starring Catherine Zeta Jones and Renée Zellweger then ya, it really was ‘all that jazz’ and a little too much more.
Friend and I were anticipating a week of luxuriating in Langkawi when BAM! I got involved in a 3-car sandwich with me being the slice of ham. La-dee-da and we all went to make our separate police reports. Police took down my statement and we went up to see the investigative officer...nice fella, him. Helped me so-called reconstruct what happened and he even pulled out the files of the previous two reports to explain how I would have to go about insurance claims. After that, police took photographs of my car and I chugged home with cousy beside me, and her bf following us to subang so that he could ascertain that I reached all the way home (bless him).
Mana tau, just before the damansara toll, my car bonnet flew right up in our faces and smashed against the windscreen! I tried to break as gradually as I could and ducked below the top of the wheel to see where I was driving, and hauled my sorry-ass car to the side. Then, you shoulda seen the looks of incredulity on our faces... we got over the initial shock of having the bonnet fly right up to cover the windscreen and then we started to marvel at how the windscreen didn’t even get smashed...or cracked! Her bf had already turned off our road to use LDP so we had to call him back to where we were. Then we tried bending the damn thing forwards and backwards but it wouldn’t budge. Haiyo... thank heavens that the PLUS patrol came along and they were also extremely understanding and nice. I did wonder at that time if there were cameras up on the opp. buildings. They yanked the bonnet down, tied it in place and sent us on our way (janganlah pandu cepat cepat)...
The next day was a whirlwind of calls to the insurance company and workshops (apart from the many transfers to non-existing officers) and finally I managed to plonk my car into a panel workshop at Jalan 222/3. What’s more, i was supposed to depart to langkawi in the next 2 days AND move to my new place right after my descent to KL! Fucking shit man, seriously. I was so fucking fed up that I couldn’t start a conversation without snapping at somebody. Yea i admit i cried. I was frustrated and i didn’t have any cheap plates to throw.
Langkawi was quite fun, made some new friends who are originally from Portugal, Mexico, France and the UK but are all working in the UK save for one (pictures on FB). The trip was really relaxing for me this time around. It remedied my mind and i actually was much more receptive and productive at work! It also restored my faith in good people.
When i got back, i hated that i had to be so helpless and rely on other people’s cars for simple things like driving out to see Dobbs or to buy makan. What’s more, i was moving house the very next day...with no car. nada. The workshop said my cotton-candy car would be in repairs for an estimate of 1 month...And so my beloved brother-in-law helped me search for a proper car rental at a decent price, and ‘my’ car was delivered to me at my office 2 days after i flew back from the sunny cove. The day after i moved, murphy acknowledged that it was just the right time for me to fall sick. And so the heat intensified and swelled in my head and my sinuses got blocked and the irritable cough started. Swell, eh?
I know you probably didn’t enjoy reading this complaint post as much as i revelled in letting it all out. HEHE... anyways, things are just starting to settle down now. I’ve just enjoyed my first weekend in my own new place, and im just done with antibiotics. Starting to breathe a lil easier now... woot! woot!

one frenny deserves another
Went out with a friend of mine on one of those standard nights where our routines hardly varied, and of course we still managed to have quite a lotta fun :) NO i refute the fact that insinuates that i might be boring. HMPH.
Anyways, it seemed to me that we just talked and talked. Like what most of my guy friends would say to me (on a disturbingly regular basis), he pointed out to me that I’m a scary person. Hmph, i said. You people don’t have the balls to stand up to the stronger of the ‘weaker’ sex. Haha i must admit that was pretty stimulating conversation aka debate we had and we cheered each other with beers to cool down and forget the mock animosity. Each cheer also labelled the "loser" who couldn’t outtalk the other. TEEHEE :) i mean, no la i ain’t that mean... i just find it funny is all! Anyways there’s always a gazillion chances to one that i might be tagged the loser next time aite?!
According to him, he learned a new phrase from me that night, which was "it’s just too bad lah". Thing is, merely saying the stuff isn’t good enough...you have to cast your gaze downwards, practically roll those peepers from left to right like a pendulum, and add the finishing touches with a shoulder shrug - both palms up. Try it and chances are you’ll feel like you can explain away any wrongdoing. And er...any guilt that arises from that. THEN frenny iced the whole thing over by reminding me that i am one of the lucky ones. I’d have to admit i went blanko for a while, then i had to prompt for an explanation. What he explained after that was so ridiculously simple i really couldn’t believe - no.1: the impact it had on me - no.2: how insignificant my troubles looked after that, - and no.3: what a whiner and indecisive shrew ive been.
Of course, good lessons are never easily forgotten are they? I suppose mine will stay for quite a while, and the trouble is I’m known for short term memory relapses. HEHE :) So here’s to more knowledge/wisdom from the most unexpected places! Cheers.

tipped off my rocker
nobody shall be forced to commit to, do and say anything even slightly against their will. it is God's will that we live our lives the way we want it to.
think about it: precious few things are grave enough to become an actual obstacle in the path you're wending through. its like a snowflake - depending how serious you want that obstacle to be - it can melt away to nothing, or become aggravated enough to snowball, literally, into something that totally prevents you from making your way across to point b.
im doing this at the office on the last friday before the second-last cny weekend. a friend of mine asked "when was the last proper date you went on?" and that started the clogs workin i tell you! and truth was, i tinkered with my thoughts here, there, everywhere...and i couldnt tell you when i last felt like the universe rocked my soul. funnily enough, i lunched with my occasional lunch buddy just now and we talked about being with a true love. my friend gravely admitted that he had never felt that rocked-my-soul way with any girl hes been with before... and that got both of us a little sobered up. and kinda worried. HAHA.
haihs, anyways, i have a cny open house thingy at the bf's house together with 20 over eager relatives. uh oh. people, let's keep a lid on things ok? or in other words, shut your foul pie trap before i stuff that irritating pie hole of yours with a dozen mandarins. HEHE.
haihs...neways people, have a great firecrackin' cny...go BULLy everyone shorter than you, and be sure not to set anything aflame. tata and muaks to all :)
