too many social networking site?
Today I’ve come to realize that perhaps I have too many social networking sites, on top of it professional sites, and then I am always on the outlook to find a good site that can connect to ALL of them. And then I have to find social media tools that can connect them to my websites and profiles, then I have to interlink all of them.
It’s a long, tiring process.
Now that I have an iphone4, I am trying to find the best social media apps to connect all these dots.
educated women drink more
The key reasons which allegedly drove more well educated woman to drink more than their non-educated peers are…
Too much distraction, too little time
city dwellers now have too little time, too much distraction.
an ideal job
Wonderkittie & loony (welcome back loony!) were talking about jobs satisfaction, job criteria, headhunters, people who changes job frequently, people who stays in a job for draconian years… then the topic about ideal job came up.
my ideal job description:
1) drink, smoke and eat all I want (networking)
2) club & pub-hop all I want (entertaining)
3) wake up anytime I want (flexible working hours)
4) laptop with internet connection (mobility & connectivity)
5) holiday around the globe (willingness to travel)
Any company offering jobs like this? Call me please? ASAP? hahahaha 
the need to soften up
People always tell me that I am a strong, independent woman. They also told me I have a haughty look – one that literally screams “I am better than you”.
Well, it honestly doesn’t help when the “people” who told me that includes my best friends, my younger brothers, my aiya-brother, and the most unbelievably – my *dad*!
Dad: “Why you so career minded? You know a woman your age should start thinking about finding a nice boy & get settled down. Why you want to work so hard?”
Me: “Because I want to be independent! And don’t expect me to get married in the next 5 years because I’m still young, I want to see where I can go in my life.”
Dad: “Why do you need to proof yourself? You’re a female. A woman’s proper place is to be by the man! Work so hard for what? You need a man in your life!”
Me: “DAD! YOU ARE SUCH A MALE CHAUVINIST!”
(very appalled at my dad at this point)
Dad: “Faster go & find a nice boy lah, you know I really want to hear the pitter patter of little feet soon.”
Me: “ASK YOUR SONS TO GET MARRIED NOT ME!”
(feeling thoroughly nauseated)
Dad: “Aiyo… You cannot be so strong you know? Guys like soft, gentle women that will listen to them, cook for them at home, support them at all times… You so strong, you will scared away all the guys lah… so you must be softer you know? Wear more womanly clothes, change your independent streaks, don’t act so strong, then the guys will come to you.”
Me: “WHAT? Why do I want guys that can’t take me as I am? Why do I need to change my personality just to get the guys? Plus, I wear *skirts* & put make up to work everyday leh!”
(aghast is the correct sentiment)
Dad: “Why you so headstrong ah? You don’t be like me can a not? You don’t always look so ‘diao-geh’ (snobbish) lah, be softer a bit. Let the man be the man, you don’t have to be the man! Listen to dad won’t be wrong one…”
Me: “Wahhhhhh! I’m your daughter mah! That’s why I’m like you! And how to change my personality like that lah?”
after several minutes of this conversation goes round & round in the same thread…
Dad: “Ok ok lah, tell you what, I’ll buy the Buddhism book (佛经) for you ok? You go read it then you won’t always be so gung-ho & will able to soften up a bit.”
Me: “Ok loh…..” *sweat*
Dad: “Ok ok! I’ll go buy the book for you later ok!”
Me: *HUGE SWEAT*
Anything to make my dad happy I guess… but a Buddism book? Kudos to my dad for his originality! Mannn… I will pretend that this entire conversation has never taken place. LOL
And PS: I am perfectly happy the way I am!
what did i say?
That Namewee will definitely be ripped apart by the fanatic patriots of Malaysia for blesphamizing the Malaysia’s national anthem right?
And I quote from TheStar:
“Deputy Internal Security Minister Datuk Mohd Johari Baharum said police would investigate the rap video while MCA Youth chief Datuk Liow Tiong Lai said Wee had insulted the national anthem.”
Investigate the rap video? Whatever for? To perhaps see if there’s any terrorist-like intentions in the video? Or any bomb-making advise?
Didn’t we all learn from school to receive criticisms, be it constructive or destructive, in order for us to keep a good head on our shoulders? So… guess this doesn’t apply when it comes to country.
See the infamous “Negarakuku” here.
在想。。。
如果我的眼神不那么苍伤，会不会显得年轻一点？
in the name of loving your country
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…

eiks! a carnivorous guppy!
Nevermind how loony got her hands on 2 guppies, it only mattered that she did… To the eternal horror of the 2 poor little innocent guppies.
Within the first day, the 1st guppy dieded on loony already! Honestly speaking, it is really not loony’s fault cos the guppies have had a turbulent day what with all those rushing about & travelling. Perhaps the guppy is weak & die of exhaustion?
The guppies were supposed to be taken back to the proper owner, so it is also not loony’s fault that she doesn’t have any fish food ready on hand to feed those poor little kiddos.
And really, how could you expect a sweet, lovely girl like loony to use her bare hands to fish out the dead fish from the aquarium, right? It’s just… not doable, right?
Then today when loony came to work, she was soooo shocked to see that the lonely fish is a survival!!! But then… then… on what did the little fishy survived on? EEIKKSS! Its feeding on THE DEAD FISH!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my god.. loony has officially turned a good-natured guppy into a nasty carnivorous guppy!! loony is really a certified pet killer..
The carnivorous fish!
d’poor, poor, dead, super dead, so-dead-it-become-fish-food fish
umm.. the… surviving fish.. is still at loony’s desk..
watson is FUN
While waiting for her crazy girlfriends to choose which face mask is better at Watson’s today, Loony got sooooo bored and therefore went to check out the shelves around, and managed to find something VERY INTERESTING
Firstly, Loony discovered that men come in three (3) sizes - 49mm, 52.5mm & 54mm!
Then, Ms. MooMoo found a… very… interesting… object: lighted. vibrating. condom. The million dollar question now is… how the hell did one use those? & it has a battery attached to it for goodness sake!
Lastly… is the most ingenious thing Loony has ever saw on a body shampoo for shinning skin. Yep, you read it correctly. shinning skin. What is more interesting is, they have 2 batches – one for shinning skin, one for shining skin. & luckily Loony took a picture to prove it!
FYI, the defination of shinning is… *drum rolls*
1. the front part of the leg from the knee to the ankle
2. the lower part of the foreleg in cattle
