Random Poppadom

My daily life has been very boring lately. So boring it could bring tears to your eyes. My eyes, already. Nothing interesting. None!

What I didn't have:
No gossips. No food sampling(well, of course there is but nothing to-die-for). No chocolates(due to heatiness). No eye-candy lengchais. No movies. No Grey's Anatomy. No life.

What I did have:
Projects, assignments, gastric problems (during my one and only scheduled shopping trip!! aR!), fatigue, heatiness, one little ulcer, more work and boredom. And, ooh, my "cucumber fresh" shower cream finished so I had to use my "almond moisturizing" one which is quite unnecessary in this current hot and superbly humid weather.

So...time for Show-n-Tell!

-ooh-
At Mid Valley Fashion Week before my gastritis hit.

-spot my feet-
I have this tendency to develop an urge to clean things up when I'm busy with important things. Way more important things.

-How low can you go?-
Just a comparison of my highs and lows. Plain and Polka Dots. White and Black. Work and Play. PVCs and Satin. Tweed and Cotton.

-whooooosh...-
It is nice to have friends with connection with airlines. Cute new toy. Cathay Pacific has some too. Totally cute. Can make imagination go wild.

-ahpooh-
And then there was ahpooh. Keeping things light and bright. As usual.

pooh @ Kluang

Back in sunny Malaysia where technology has a meaning...

-(come on lah... together-gether lah) "C'est bizarre..."-

ahpooh has fit in perfectly well with my other pillows and bolsters and pigs. A conversation with Jiawei just after I touched down went like this:

Me: Look, my new bear!
Jw: Nice fur.
Me: I've already given him a name! It's ahpooh(just to add a dash of cheena).
Jw: Oh really?
Me: I named him on top of Eiffel Tower because I felt like it.
Jw: OK. Winnie the pooh. But his name is Winnie! Is it a male or female?
Me: No... His friends call him Pooh! Wait, Christopher calls him Pooh too! Anyways, mine is male.
Jw: No. They call him Winnie... That's his name ma.
Me: Then it would sound weird. "Winnie, come here!" Noooo. It's Pooh!

And the debate continues. I brought ahpooh back to Kluang for a short break. Thank goodness I have a book to refer to which I dug up from amongst the Agatha Christies (since I have nothing to do in very sunny ol' Kluang)...

-"For my little sister who still talks to her toys, Happy 15th Birthday!"-

My thoughtful eldest sister, Susan, got me this book for my 15th birthday. OK, not your average gifts for 15 year olds. Anyways, proof that he is called Pooh:

-Classic-

On the back of the book featured a conversation between Pooh and Christopher Robin.

"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me, ever. Not even when I'm a hundred." Pooh thought for a little. "How old shall I be then?" "Ninety-nine." Pooh nodded. "I promise," he said.
I'm still deciding what my conversation with ahpooh will be like.

Option A:
"How old shall I be then?"
"Seventy-eight."
Pooh thought for a little. "That's easier," he concluded.

Option B:
"Iz der.. howl olde sharl I be zhen?"
"Soixante dix-huit"
"Bizarre!"

Option C
"The honey here tastes weird"
"Of course! It has sugar syrup added."
"Oh, bother!"

Anyways, I just think Kluang is too hot at the moment. Nonetheless, I brought my new friend out to the garden to get some air.

-Bunga Raya+ahpooh-

-What I get when I wake up early-

-A pineapple, seriously-

No, seriously, there really is a pineapple growing in my garden! We get to eat it after what seems like years(actually 6 months). I ate it once and it is superbly sweet and fragrant. Can't wait to harvest this one. heehee. There are also sugarcane at the back but they don't look too pretty.

-The mother nature du jardin a.k.a Mom-

Mom likes it when I say her thumbs are the greenest around. I think gardening is very therapeutic for mom and occasionally, dad. "Your dad doesn't always clean up the grass he cuts!" says mom occasionally.

-Me!-

OK. Anyways, I'm really bored. I'll probably feature what I eat in Kluang next (not what I do because one doesn't do much in Kluang other than climb Gunung Lambak). I wish there was a One Utama, Cineleisure and Sunway Lagoon Themepark here.
