Blogs
I've been thinking for some time about quitting. But time and again after 'extended' breaks I came back. But the truth is I prefer to read than to write. I used to get alot more satisfaction for writing a post than I do nowadays (probably explains why I havent been blogging as much)
But this post is dedicated to blogs I read. I need to find new reads! For some reason I havent been able to access Ann's blog (for quite sometime already). So that makes me wonder if she has quit without announcing. Hmm..
Then there's this other blog that I love reading.. but she's decided to finally quit blogging :( I dont know her (personally) yet through her blog I got to know many things about her life. She's definitely one cool character! Then her boyfriend decided to close down his blog too!! What's with these people?! And they are not the only ones! Sigh...
I still remember the very first post I read on her blog. That one fateful post that got me hooked :) It all happened last summer.. (who could forget that super crazy hot summer?) She and her boyfriend were testing out the saying: it's hot enough to fry an egg on the pavement. Well since they were in their apartment they decided to modify it a little.. Instead of breaking an egg on the pavement they did it indoors on a window where the sun was shining in. And just like those myth busters it was all documented in photos.. and proven to be : just a myth :p
So yeah... I still dont know her.. but I do know I'm going to miss her.

Da Dee Dum...
Actually the reason why I havent been posting is not because life has been too busy to allow me time to post.. but rather there's not much happening in my life.. and I've taken to staying indoors more often (excuse) due to the increasingly bad haze problem (truth!)...
So.. in the past few weeks, I have:
1. Celebrated Ranita's b'day... with Thai food... and an extremely spicy tom yum
--> proof: end of dinner.. 5 people.. 11 cups on the table!
2. Met up with friends a couple of times :)
--> and met a creepy racist... what is it with creepy workers in common food places?!
3. Tried and failed to watch Pirates of the Carribean: The Black Pearl (but I'll be trying again this week)
4. Spend time with the family :)
5. Spend more time in front of the idiot box
6. Eaten real Malaysian food that I've missed for 2 years
7. Lost weight (while pigging out!)
--> I seriously suspect it's got smt to do with the weather
8. Went shopping
9. Found out that the National Poison Center is actually right in Penang !!!
10. Found out it's actually possible to keep redailing a number your cell phone until you can no longer call that number!
--> I hope it's not just my stupid phone
11. See a dentist... a VERY NICE dentist :) who scaled my teeth.. so it's now nice and clean *colgate smile*
12. Endured the most painful torture I've voluntarily undertaken in my life..
--> If everybody was blind... would women still be vain?
13. Paying my sleep debt from the World Cup season... speaking of which ITALY WON!! WOO HOO! :)
14. And last but not least lost my momentum and a big part of my brain function from lack of use
