stray cat
it's funny how i start to stray off again from blogging. normally it took me one time to post an entry, then i'll have my blogging mood back. but i guess it doesn't seem to work anymore now.. but it did get me working on this one when i read my previous post just now. haha. so here goes.

currently my dad's back to being warded at the hospital. he'd been claiming of breathing difficulty for a while so one morning he couldn't take it anymore and lucky enough my sis was around. so she had no choice but to take him to the hospital and he'd been there for like a week now. well it wouldn't stretch this long if it wasn't for the fever that he suddenly had on the day he was supposedly to be discharged. so until he's ok enough, we all have to make return trips to the hospital, and our new maid Anis had to overnight there every alternate days.

and i on the other hand, will be flying off to Bali in two days' time! man, i haven't even start packing. Lydia already told me to get it done and don't do it last minute like her or i'll gabra! but i seriously dunno what to pack. i'll be going with Dear, Radz and Rahim and Dan, and Dear's sister with her friends as well since his sister had helped us a lot with the flight and hotel arrangements. the most thing i can't wait to do there is try their local delicacies. aka the exotic ones like fried insects! i asked Anis if we can find those there and she said there are tons of it. we might even find pig heads, or even the pig itself, as a whole, dead and fried. haha omg gross much. then we'll shop and try not to drop, get wet at Waterbomb and.. shop more, i guess? well that's the plan. hope it'll work out!

but given my dad's condition like this, it kind of makes me feel guitly. sigh.

right, so i not-so-recently found out that on February 12th, it was my colleague Jamilah's birthday, who happens to be a 1988 baby as well :D and on the 14th, it was Kak Aminah, one of the finance staff's birthday. hahaha. and on the 13th is obviously mine ah. so on that Saturday, despite being the eve of CNY and all part-timer's are supposedly to work, i managed to get an off.

so this year instead of being out with my boyfriend, i had a birthday date with the two hot chix Maii and Radz. hehehe. the plan was to Mad Jack @ PoMo/Paradiz, but they were closed. the other Mad Jack outlets that opened were just too far away so we scrapped the idea, and hunted for Pastamania at Far East instead. more economic. and we could use the extra cash for a movie or something, lol. but silly us, we totally forgot about the possibility of it being closed too. and it was closed, so.. meh. then we travelled to Central for the Manhattan Fish Market, which tricked us bad when we saw their logo lit up from afar. i mean it obviously made us think that it was opened. but it was yet another disappointment and we decided to go for Billy Bomber's which is just next door. but after browsing through the menu, it was kind of unappealing, so we finally settled on Fish & Co. at Park Mall. that's another bus trip. hahaha. Radz recommend most of it, and they both kept saying the New York Fish & Chips can be very "muak" due to the stuffed cheese. but no leh. i liked it a lot. like A LOT a lot! haha. just that it was very fulfilling uh. stories and gossips, more stories and gossips. girls' best activity by nature i guess. haha. to Maii and Radz, thanks so much for the night. &heart;

somehow i feel like there are so many things crammed in my head right now. other than the Bali anticipation, i guess it must be my major project. it's due at the end of April and i barely got anything done. not to mention the side project of be design for this company that Shuyi got for me. i was reluctant coz i was afraid i can't juggle between that and my major project, but since Shuyi had extended its deadline to mid or end of April, i'd decided to take up the challenge. and besides, this might be a good practice for me to multi-task coz i assume to be in the creative/design industry, you're bound to multi-task and stuff. so.. let's cross fingers for success.

right, till my next post.
