So speak the truth, I never really like horror movies. Not that I hated it or anything, it just gives me the creeps that horror movies nowadays are sometimes so well done that you thought it was for real. Take Ghost Doll Hanako that I watched a couple of years back. It really freaked me out so much that I couldn't sleep in peace at all for one whole week. There's this particular scene in which the two protagonists (girls) were in a room writing some sort of protection incantation and repeating "I don't want to die. I want to live!" over and over again. And every completed written incantation was pasted all over the room, sort of like forming a protection barrier around the room, and not letting that creepy scary ghost doll come anywhere near them. As if that wasn't bad enough, the protection seal that was previously pastered on the glass window started to smudge and became "useless" and suddenly, the ghost doll plastered itself against the window, right exactly where the protection seal was previously pasted at.

Bad part?

My bed is right beside a window too... So, that sort of gives me the creeps whenever I heard or feel some sort of presence near the window. But still, ultimately, nothing beats this video I found of Saw. Just watch it to believe it for yourself. And last but not least, make sure you're not eating or drinking when you are watching this video or esle you'll regret doing so...

You mean, that's how they got the logo for the Beijing Olympics 2008??

It was normal standard procedure...

Ready, aim!

Hmm, maybe we can still make use of it, somehow...

Okay, that looks great. But we're missing something.

Quick, let the world know about this logo!!

I didn't know what I was exactly thinking or even thought about it, but before I realised, I found myself hopping onto a feeder bus to Bukit Merah Interchange for a long ride back home after work. I found myself urgently in need of a toilet to relieve myself and walked all the way until McDonald's where I sat down and pondered back when I used to live in Tiong Bahru when I was young (3 or 4 years old). Back then, life was simple, not like now where everyday is a rat race for survival, racing to the top, and be able to catch the fresh scent of "fresh air" before anyone else does before me. Why, I remembered how my parents used to bring me to Bukit Merah every weekend where we would have an early supper at KFC. I'm sure many people, especially those born before the 1980s remembered that KFC used to place their chilli and ketchup sauce (in bottles) on the tables and customers can help themselves to however much sauce they like, not like now, sauces and condiments came in disposable satchets and packets. I also remembered my father buying me toys from KFC once in a while whenever they have new stocks available (much like McDonald's Happy Meals now) and my mother would wait with me patiently, sitting on the benches that are right in front of the cashier counters eagerly awaiting what new toy(s) KFC would have. Those were really happy days, everyone was happy, the cashier counter staffs were really sweet and nice (partly because I was small and cute lar...). Family outings were considered a rare occasion for me in which I never really truly cherished until now, I realised that having a family outing is almost near impossible as everyone in my family is working to earn more money to have a better and stable life.



Simlpy put, I may sound greedy, wanting all that's good in life and yet complained so much endlessly. But what I would really want most in this world, is just my family. A family outing where everyone enjoyed ourselves without having to worry about anything (except my mother who would worry if the laundry would be dry the following morning). And back in tiong Bahru where I used to live, I remembered my grandfather who would always buy me everything and anything I wanted. We were not exactly well off but everyone tried to give me the best that life had to offer, even if it means trying to live and survive within their own means. Now that my grandfather is in and out of the old folk's home (he's old, slipped and fell and got admitted to hospital and everybody claimed they are too busy to care for him), I also realised that I had never ever truly cherished what he had done for me until now. I know it's too late for any regrets, and that one day, he might not be here anymore to talk to, or to style his wispy long white hair a la Son Goku (DragonBall) style. But still, memories of my wonderful grandfather would always be in my heart even until the day I breathed my last, surrounded by how many children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren. But then, if I could have one wish, I really wished that I could go back and start my life all over again and started caring for my family more, listened to my mother's advice instead of not believing her.



And while these thoughts flashed across my mind, I somehow thought back to the time when my mother told me that my grandmother (from my mother's side) used to have a sister who was unfortunately killed when a bomb was dropped onto their house during WWII. Emotions definitely run high, as I would definitely have to bid farewell to those I loved and knew and yet never got the chance to know people who are supposed to be in my family but yet unfortunately passed on. Life sucks when this type of stuff happens, yes it really does all the time. But every time when I thought about these things, I would nevertheless remembered to look on the bright side and think about what the future might hold or bring for me. And as the saying goes, 'Life is always greener on the other side' and I would absolutely love to believe that.

Well, to be truthfully honest, I like cooking but I hate the washing up. I'm very sure most people have the same sentiments like I do. Cooking is fun and nothing beats the high and satisfaction when the stuff you are cooking turns up good (doesn't have to be perfect lah..) and when washing up time comes, it sort of becomes a real drag to handle though. Nuff said, here's the simple recipe for this pasta:

1/4 Onions, diced

1/4 Green Capsicum, sliced

Minced beef (substitute for any other meat if you can't take beef)

1 Tomato, sliced

Spaghetti sauce (any brand you preferred)

Method:

1. Cook the spaghetti in a pot of boiling water (add some oil so that the spaghetti doesn't stick to each other) until al dente.

2. Cook/Brown the minced meat together with the sliced capsicum.

3. Add diced onions and sliced tomatoes.

4. Add cooked spaghetti and spaghetti sauce. (You can choose not to add in the cooked spaghetti if you prefer tossing it in your plate last)

5. Serve with parsley flakes and enjoy!!

Simple recipe right, not exactly a chef in the making. But proud to share really simple recipes with anyone who likes spaghetti like I do.

For those of you, my regular readers, I actually signed up for a blog account on MTV Asia Blog, on the very last day of March and guess what? I received news from MTV Asis that I was chosen as MTV Blogger Of The Month - March.. But then, you see, I noticed this blog by a Singaporean that is actually updated every day for the month of March and blogs like this didn't win anything whereas I only signed up for an account on the last day of March and somehow "made up" for the "lack of posts" by blogging in April and I won myself a prize. I hope no one feels jealous though, but still, you can check it out at APuNiaoPuNiao @ MTV Asia Blog

Well, I finally found the time to make it down to MTV Asia's office to collect my prize. (I had initially planned on making a trip to Carrefour at Plaza Singapura for some sushi after that, but well...)I mean, I know where The Atrium @ Orchard is, but not exactly where to go in from to get to the office itself. And coincidentally enough, the security guard who was manning the tower decided to ask for my IC in order to exchange for a pass (feels like taking the MRT in a building instead though..) and I convinced him to take my old school bus pass instead as I needed my IC for prize verification purposes. Well, enough talk from me, here are the pictures I took of the prize after I got home. (It's a shame I didn't snap a couple of photos at MTV's office though, I guess I was too awed to remember taking out my camera phone. But the lady at the reception was very pleasant and sweet too!!)


An envelope marked as Blogger Of The Month - March


An MTV Mousepad


An MTV spiral bound notebook (A4)


A white T-shirt (size L) with a very witty caption (my mother claimed to have seen the design somewhere ago...)


Finally, a photo of all the items together. Seriously, I really like the design on the mousepad and notebook though. I somehow wished they could use the same design on the T-shirt too, it's more attention-grabbing and eye-catching that is sure to turn heads wherever you go.

I myself have realised, "My face looks pissed without me feeling pissed" and that itself might have inadvertently offended a lot of people without me realising it too. Well, let me talk about this incident that happened on 6 April.

I was supposed to work the afternoon shift and I ended up reporting to work close to 10 minutes late. I seldom report to work late and I try not to. And in this case, it's already a bad start to the whole day. Anyway, I went to my work station and everything went on fine as per usual with any other day. Then, this idiot (sorry for the choice of words here, but this rude ass is only worth called "An Idiot!!") asked about our store membership card. And as I was already serving another customer, I had to leave this idiot for a while before I could attend to him. When I did finally managed to get back to him, he seemed a little impatient. And he asked about our membership card renewal process. Anyway, this is how the whole conversation went:

Idiot: My card is expiring this month and I understand that if I make a purchase of $50, I can get my card renewed on the spot, right?

Me: Actually Sir, you have to come back one month before the expiry date to renew your card, but...

Idiot: What kind of attitude is that? I'm asking you about renewing my card and you're telling me that I have to come back one month before the expiry date. Are you paying attention to what I am saying? I want to see your manager!

Me: (blank look on my face and I haven't even finish explaining to him at all)...

Colleague: Why? What's wrong? Did something happen?

Me: (while on the phone) ... I don't know??...

Idiot: What do you mean you don't know? Don't be a customer representative if you don't have the intention of doing customer service?

Colleague: Sir, I apologise...

Idiot: What kind of attitude is that? This is the lousiest service I have ever encountered, I want to see your manager right now!

Me: Nobody's picking up the phone, I think I'll go inside and look for a manager....

Along the way, I muttered some profanity that popped to my mind instantly. (Luckily, I was out of that idiot's range for him to hear anything) I mean, I didn't even get to explain and finish what that idiot needs to know and he cut short my explanation. And if that isn't good enough, he claimed that I was rude when he was the rude one. This is really maddening! I did look for a manager, and the manager was the person who was in charge of my department to soothe the hissy prissy idiot. And the good part? I have a lot of witnesses to attest to the fact that I wasn't rude to him.

To cut the long story short, this idiot did renewed his card and left his name, snail mail address, email address, everything down. I don't know whether he's really an idiot or not. But from my point of view, if I complained about a sales staff, whether I am being mean or just wanted to find someone to vent my frustrations on, I wouldn't be so stupid to leave all my contact details behind for anyone to get hold of, right? Well, this idiot just did that.

And my manager actually tried to pacify my traumatised mind that, "Well, at least you can get back at that shameless goon since he left his contact details for us?" Yeah! That sounds great. Ultimately. But then, I don't think I would want to do that. Spamming his email and stuffs like that. But, if he comes back and give me more shit again, maybe....

P/S: Anyone who feels for me and wants to help me get back, PM me for that idiot's particulars!!
