l: Ok. Stuff yourself with it.
w: Your bananas are getting too ripe! It has to be put in the fridge.
l: You know why we like cold bananas? ‘cos we can suck it until it melts.
w: *SHOCK*
w: umm… The bananas are too ripe… they fell off their trunks (when she put them in the fridge)
l: Ohh mann.. This is such a dreary predicament!
//w & l rolled on the ground shaking with laughter
Those of you who read my old blog will know that I have previously dissed my neighbours for being an uncivilized, barbaric, ill-bred, crude, discourteous, unthoughtful, illiterate, impertinent, uneducated, unmannared, vulgar, lowbred, boorish, inhuman, uncultivated, rude son of a b!tch.
Now I’ve met another neighbour who constantly come to the pretty damsel’s rescue(s):
- SMS-ed wonderkittie to tell us that I’ve forgotten to turn off my car’s headlights for freaking 18 hours (obviously the battery is dead flat)
- Helped me changed my dead flat batter in the middle of the night together with a tipsy EL and a very helpful guard
- when wonderkittie dropped her sunnies beside d’car
…And my lovely neighbour is apparently a very prominent figure in the electronica scene in Malaysia. (loony is trying to get over her total complete utter shock and awe right now)
No, I’m not going to tell you his name. 
After loony’s second eye (Right eye) surgery, the pressure in loony’s eyes refused to go down. It literally felt like her eyes are *popping out*. It really really really really really hurts. Ioony was feeling kinda like in a living hell.
Actually after the first surgery, it hurts so much that Ioony honestly felt like *not* going through the entire surgery for another agonizing time. So how did loony go through the second time, you ask? Well, loony prayed to the Buddha for giving her the strength and the courage to go through this as quickly and painlessly as possible… and it works! It only takes 12 minutes to finish the entire procedure. The first time, loony thinks it took her approximately around 30 minutes – the worst 30 minutes in her life. After this, she is seriously reconsidering the option of giving birth to any child. (not kidding)
And for the first time in her life, loony can see things clearly for what they are, how they are, why they’re like this, who they are, and how’s it going to be. Crystal-clearly.
And from now on, loony is going to follow her own clear sightedness and her own footsteps, nobody else’s.
Her sincerest thanks to her parents from the bottom of her heart.
Nobody told loony she had to wait 1.5 hours to dilute her eyes.
Nobody told loony it’s so cold in the waiting and operation room.
Nobody told loony she had to stare into a light so bright that her poor eye almost cannot handle.
Nobody told loony that she can totally feel the equipments, however sophisticated and elegant they are, when they were literally “going through” her eye.
Nobody told loony she’s going cry like a baby the entire time (this is purely human reaction ok)
Nobody told loony it hurts like shit.
Nobody told loony how utterly alone she would feel sitting at the post-op room waiting for her eye to heal.
Nobody told loony she would gripped her fingers so tight throughout the entire operation because, frankly, she is scared out of her mind.
And nobody could describe the joy that loony experienced the moment she opened her eyes and able to see clearly, for the longest time in her life, without the aid of either glasses or contact lenses!
Guess all the pain is worth it. loony mused that perhaps this is why lots of women went through with cosmetic surgery, irregardless of the pain they feel post-op.
Ah well, one eye down. Tomorrow is DDAY for loony’s right eye.
PS: Leng Hiong, thanks for your concern! Appreciate it.

It was the rave on the Malaysia network, this song called “Negarakuku” created by Namewee. loony’s first reaction to hearing the name of this song is “He’s so going to be thrown behind the bars if he ever stepped his foot back in Malaysia”. This is an outrage. This is a blasphemy. And it’s too compelling for loony *not* to watch it… (why do you think scandals travel faster than world news and everyone loves celebrity gossips?)
And heck, although his lyrics are relatively *nice* now, as compared to his earlier clips, they still sting haha. Can’t deny there’s certain grain of truth in the real life situation and what we Chinese called ‘ah Q’ idea there.
Again, loony’s guessing everyone’s initial thought will be that this Namewee really dislike his own country. loony begs to differ. In Chinese, there’s a saying: “The more you love someone, the more you will berate someone (for their own betterment, of course)” 爱之深，责之切啊
Oh well. Rights and wrongs about the policy of government is really not a subject loony’d like to discuss on the web. Smart people like loony will leave this touchy subject to the politicians to muse over it. So here’s a clip of it, with English subtitles. See how considerate we Malaysians are…

loony likes to read about celebrities gossips. Oh hell yeah. But then loony was never one of those folks who went gaga over any celebrities. Geez, she has only been to one and only one concert in her entire miserly 26 years of life, and Jay Chou at that.
loony blamed it on her new hormonal change post-eye surgery that got her into doing this kid stuff called “My Celebrity Look-Alikes”. (was bored out of her mind) When she posted up her picture and was impatiently tapping her fingers waiting for the system to churn up her look-alikes, the only thing that crossed her mind was.. What if my look-alikes are all B-class actresses!? *gasp*
To her eternal relief, the people who she most resembled are A-class actresses or singers. (vain pot) hohohoho… *phew* Geez… do she really look like Gillian Chung, Michelle Yeoh, and.. the most outrageous of all.. BEYONCE?! Seriously??

Well, tomorrow is DDAY which loony will be laying half paralyzed on the chopping board for the surgeons to do whatever they pleased…
…to her eyes only ok! (tsk, you guys are just full with *senget* thoughts)
loony will be under the knife for an operation called ICL – Implantable Contact Lenses. No, it’s not lasik. No, loony cannot do lasik because her power is freaking 1400 per eye. No, if loony do lasik then she’ll have 75% of her cornea fried off and then after the surgery she’ll be lucky to have any cornea left!
Anyway, let loony put it in a nutshell for you (since nobody will bother to click the link above):
- First you have to drill 2 holes in each of your eyes (it’s called YAG laser, *very* uncomfortable procedure),
- then you wait 2 weeks before the surgeon cut a small little line on the side of your cornea,
- insert a little piece of inflatable rubber in between your cornea and iris,
- put some solutions inside so it’ll expand and latched properly inside your eyes (so that when you swim or do vigorous exercise),
- wait for 2 hours before your eyes settled, and then you can see without having to put on contact lenses or glasses everyday!
Is loony scared? Hmmphh… all loony can think about now is ‘I really feel like having a cup of milo’ that’s all… *sweatzzzzz*

In a series of cascading events – loony subscribed to BNET, which introduced Pharyngula, who talked a little about some Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus, which piqued loony’s interest “Is there really a dry land octopus?” and clicked the link…
Call loony a frog under the well but mann…! She was SUPER SHOCKED when she saw the real picture of this “is this real?” dry-land octopus.
loony pondered: How did the octopus get to live on the trees? But but but ain’t we all taught that octopus live under the deep dark ocean? (and maybe that’s why they’re so hideous?)
Then loony decided that the picture looks a bit fake, so she went to look at other pictures… and screamed! Tree octopus is mind-bogging enough, and now a *BLUE* tree octopus which frankly speaking looked like a soft plush furry toy being put there on top of the tree???
< style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Tree octopus species (especially the endangered Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus) are some of the most elusive creatures known to Man. Not many researchers have managed to photograph them in the wild and those few in captivity tend to hide in inaccessible corners of their cages, as if purposefully avoiding the prying of humans.“
loony is verrryyyyyyyyy suspicious of this entire set up. Then loony flashed back on how the hell did she come across this information at first place: BNET wouldn’t introduce Pharyngula if he’s a fake; and since Pharyngula is a reputable blogger he will not mentioned tree octopus if this info is fake ‘cos it’ll make him look stupid; then loony decided that this is after all a genuine information; then since this is a nearly endangered species loony decided to support the shoutout to save the tree octopus!
(Note to all men: This is not the ususal way women’s thoughts are processed)
(Note to self: Seeing are not necessarily believing. A dose of skepticism are healthy for thy mind)
SO, loony’s blog’s dearest readers and fans, please do your bit and support the blue tree octopus cause. All you need to do is to post the picture up and linked back to the website anyway.
