The Scents
I found out that the reason perfumes are expensive is because of the packaging. The box and those nice-looking bottles make the price even nicer, rather, pricier. She said that if it's just the perfume or cologne alone, it wouldn't even cost much.
Which drove me to thinking that it would be better to buy perfumes using refillable bottles. Wouldn't that be great for the environment, not to mention on our pockets? But of course, I don't think these perfume companies would like that, otherwise, they'd lose lots of Moo lah.
But what do you do with those bottles once you're done with the contents? I have discovered a long time ago (after seeing a lot of half-used bottles of perfume of my mom's languishing pathetically, all forgotten) that they just create clutter. I'm always left with the dilemma of throwing away the bottles because they are nice and I end up throwing them away, although hoping that I could find some means to recycle them but how?
Iko said that some, if not most of these bottles, are made out of real crystals. Which brings me to the point -- why have fancy bottles when it's what's inside that matters?It's like why bother to smell so good when it's what's in your heart that would make you smell like a garden of roses? Bad allegory I know. Oh and did you know that rose petals have to be picked at a particular time, otherwise, your rose-scented perfume wouldn't smell so good? They have to be picked at three o'clock in the effing morning!
Then the oranges. They must come from Florida. Only Florida. She said that for some reason, chemists swear by the oranges from Florida. Otherwise the scent would not be the same. So when those big typhoons hit Florida, you can just imagine what this meant to the industry. Shortage of citrus-based scents? Or a hike in their prices due to limited stocks?
Then there is the thing about the colours and the packaging. I told her that I don't like perfumes in purple- or dark-coloured bottles because they seem to smell the same. She explained that all that is part of the marketing too. And it's true, purple-like bottles would give you the same scent (overpowering smell if you ask me that could knock me down as I am averse to strong scents).
Just like a carefully packaged boyband or starlet, perfumes also follow the same marketing strategy. If they look like this, then they must smell like that. The only scent in a dark-coloured bottle I have liked so far is JLo's Still.
I seem to prefer scents in clear-coloured bottles. Take Clinique Happy, L'eau Par Kenzo and Philosophy's Baby Grace. Iko said Clinique is "fruity" while Kenzo is "soapy". I suspect that Baby Grace would be considered sappy, er, soapy too.
However, I'm still loyal to my favourite, BLV from Bvlgari. (yes la, i know i smell like an oldman)
How about you guys?

Lets talk SHITS!!!! (18SG)
Thx Lollipop for the fine comments...really appreciate it....
Jasmine...cheer up....
.
..
...
....
.....
ok...yes...i'm in the office now..and i have to update my blog so that Ice'T can eat her breakfast. Lol...
Ice'T, if u r reading this...pls...finish ur breakfast before reading this..kakakakka
A friend asked me over to her place for dinner. Apparently, two of her other girlfriends were coming over too and you know what? In my heart of hearts, I was thinking and my heart suddenly started beating like some African tribal drum. Is she wanna try to do those kolot stuff like introducing me to her friends....etc..u know la... I was thinking of getting on my knees and thanking the universe for such bounty and such blessings man. Having a cun chick introducing more cun chicks to you– whatever you call it, it’s the ultimate man’s desire.
When I reached her place, there were three of them ladies, sitting at a table tucking into ‘KFC’ – Kentucky fried chicken and sad to say, they are casually clothed and decent looking. Luckily i'm not that "over dressed" myself, with just jeans n a polo T. Well, I was hungry so I polished off four pieces of original style chicken. And some potato wedges and some pita bread stuff which I didn’t recognise.
My friend, she had some sabah chilli sauce, a really nasty spicy concoction which will burn your tongue but the worst is yet to come. Why? Because this morning, when I'm going thru the shitting process, my intestines felt like they are on fire and my anus aka the asshole is gonna feel like....
"Houston, we've got a problem"
.........a few seconds later
"Houston, we got ignition and we got lift off!!!"
.......
LIFT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, my asshole is felt like it is some exhaust pipe on the space shuttle. And why am I writing about this?
Well, one of her friends was talking about how good the food tasted and suddenly between mouthfuls of chicken in her mouth, she said, "I haven’t taken a shit in three days…" I almost fell off my chair. WhaT The F%^K???? I felt the chicken that I had swallowed kinda slowly easing up my throat. I felt like throwing up.
The three girls then started to talk about their shitting experiences as if I wasn’t there. Like 98' Degrees, Yea I'm the invisible man~~~~ How they stare and analyse their shit when it finally comes out, the different varieties of shit colour, shit texture and shit length when they eat different stuff.
One of the girls was saying, "I have experienced before – I don’t shit for one week and the shit that comes out is so smelly. Nothing smells as bad as that." And her friend replied instantly, "I don’t agree. I think sperm smells really bad, much worse than shit. Even one week old shit that’s stuck in ur arse." (me again having the WTF?!? look on my face).
The first girl then asked, "How you know? How you know sperm smells bad? You smell before? What were you doing when you smell the sperm? Who’s sperm is it?" All three girls broke out laughing to my great mortification and embarrassment. They were making fun of our most precious male essence. Our life and our pride. My balls shrank dudes!
And they went on and on about what kinds of natural remedies that are available to coax the shit out of their asses. And one of her friends said, "Wah, I try this melilia stuff and I shat three times in a day lah. So nice, so smooth and creamy."
Fuck man!!!I put my right hand over my mouth. I massaged my throat and I suddenly got up and ran to the kitchen sink and let it all out. Looking kinda green, I walked bravely back to the three girls. They stopped talking and looked at me concerned, "Are you okay?" "Oh I am okay. As okay as any man who is in the middle of eating and gets unwanted audio and visual stimulation on the practical dissertation of the composition, visual look and sensory feel of fecal wastes extruding from your sexy backsides."And they started laughing.
The three gorgeous bitches.
Ps - Ice'T, enjoyed your breakfast?

What is Happiness to You?
Yeah, everyone would have experienced these moments. But these moments don’t last but do they?
I have met many friends who are married, both men and women. Most at best are miserable in their marriages. The people who are happy are those who are just dating or the ones having affairs.
Is this normal? Is this the new wave? I don’t really think it is the new wave by the way.Happiness is something very fleeting for me.
At best, my life is 10% very happy, 80% life as usual and 10% downright unhappy. Life as usual is like going to work, having a few laughs, hitting the pubs and just the normal day-to-day happiness. Very happy is like hitting the million dollar lottery (which will never happen as i don't even buy it), winning the girl you’ve been trying so hard to get and finally being successful in winning her, getting a promotion, getting a big raise and probably going for a month-long tour in some exotic place, fully paid meals and lodging.
Downright unhappy is like a close relative dying, being retrenched, having a car accident, etc, etc – I think you know what I mean. So, sometimes I am happy, most times I am having an okay day and occasionally I get a shitty day. Chatting with people I meet at the pub, sometimes listening to all these fucking sad stories kinda make me feel down initially.
After awhile, I spoke with a friend of mine and I said to him, “How’d ya handle listening to all these sad stories ya? Don’t it get to ya?”And he said to me, “Well, I just listen and then I pray for them and leave God to help them. I meet so many unhappy people each day and if I were to keep all their sadness in my heart, then I’d probably die of grief.”
Yeah, sometimes sadness or grief is good; that’s when we appreciate happiness more. I feel sad because of certain incidents, which have happened. Life ain’t easy sometimes, there are times when I feel so tired and I keep telling myself, “Things will get better. Hang on there!”And they do. In time, everything will work out. And it always does. In time.
I was very happy yesterday as the proposal that I have spent a full weeks time to actually wrap things up has finally been approved completey after a 5 hours intense meeting with the company Board of Directors.
While I'm struggling for the proposal, my mobile phone kept on receiving calls. (I've put in on silent mode but i can see it cos the screen lits up everytime it receives a call). In the end, i have 17 miss calls and 8 smses.
Upon checking all the smses, it only gives me 1 message. It's bad news. A bunch of old colleageues from my previous company informing me the death of Mdm. Lai. She's a very fine caring lady. I could still remember how lively her voice every morning when she sings in the pantry before the working hours. How kind of she to always give each and everyone of us (A&P Dept) a bowl of her special desserts. How she teached me to play mahjong and chinese stuffs. Those were the days.
After I left there for where I am now, news about her having cancer. It can't be cured. Her life has changed tremendously. She fought bravely and without regrets but deep down in her, there's the sadness that can't be told. I'm watching a life getting lifeless. Enough said. Cancer wins.
Life goes on.
Life is kinda ironic – fighting like cats and dogs when healthy but back to loving-kindness when death was knocking on the door.
Happiness??? What the hell is that?
May you rest in peace, Mdm. Lai.

Adapting? Nah..just my Opinion.
Growing up as a kid, I used to admire other people and would sometimes think about being like them. Have you ever want to be someone else? Ever thought that other persons stuffs are always better compared to ownself? I find it rather true but just be grateful with what we have shall we?
TV's, radios...yea...the morning crew, JJ & Rudy, movies really influenced me a lot in my likes and dislikes. Why do you think everynow and then, kids keep eating McDonalds and KFCs? Due to what reason?
ADVERTISING lah… That’s why I love this line cos thats what i do.
As years goes by, I grew and started liking more and more other things like girls for instance. Now this liking for girls never abated with age; somehow I get more and more interested in women as compared to my much kiddy days. I have been told that this is normal and though it is normal, I do have to control myself or else I’ll end up in jail or getting smack for hugging and touching every beautiful woman I meet at the clubs.
In high school and college, you’d have somebody you admire and at the movies, who doesn’t want to be like Richard Gere or Sean Connery??? But, often at times it’s not the look that we admire alone, it’s the personality, skills and mannerisms of a person that we admire and we may try to imitate them and be like them.
But the fact is each and everyone of us is unique and special in his or her own way.It’s our own uniqueness that makes us special and yet, not all of us realize this. Some of these characteristics may cause us to fit well with certain people and fall-out with others. Some people may appreciate us and some may not. Consequently, we feel at home with different people.
What are we?
The sum of all our experiences, our perception in life, our hopes and aspirations? If I were to sit down and document all the things in my life from birth till now; it will be a very long blog. Err, provided I remember all the things that I have gone through la.
Everyone wants to be loved and liked.Rite? Somehow, imitating a person and following his/her style of talking or behavior doesn’t seem right to me, as a way to get love or respect or just that little attention. I think to be respected and loved; first one must love themselves. By this, I think one should not be narcissistic but one should love oneself in that one should take care of oneself, live well, educate, develop and expand oneself in every areas of life. One should seek to be all that one can be in this life.
And you know, this doesn’t have to do with material wealth and status.It’s more to do with one’s inner self. Yes, the deep within you thingy. Having done this, when others look upon us and see the value one puts on oneself without deprecating others but complementing others in our love for oneself; they are automatically drawn to us.
Value in this life is based on many things. One of the most common means value is determined is through the individual opinion one or many persons has to for a particular object.
For example,
1. Has anyone ever asked for your opinion of anything?
2. Why do they ask your opinion on that matter, thing or object?
3. What will they do with the opinion?
4. Do they use your opinions to shape their own opinions?
Say, a movie like Fantastic 4 for instance?
1. Someone asked me if I liked the movie (I said it sucks)
2. They probably asked me on this because they are contemplating watching the movie?
3. If they trust my opinion, they may not want to see the movie?
4. I should think that their decision to see the movie may be affected by my comments(opinion)?
So coming back to ourselves.
1. If we have a good opinion of ourselves (love ourselves), when people notice, how do you think they will think of us?
2. If we have a low opinion of ourselves (don’t love ourselves), when people notice, how do you think they will think of us?
3. Do you think people who are thought of well by others are treated better or worse (generally)?
4. So ultimately, we shape our own destinies – what happens to us is what we have or have not done to ourselves or for ourselves.
Some of my kejiwangan thoughts here…hope u all un what i'm writing lah...

The Balance
I was just listening to a friend of mine talking and I realized all of us may have at one time or another gone through such situations in life.Some people learn and move on; some people never learn and eventually get their just rewards for their arrogance.
I don't know about you and other people but when I was a kid, my dad used to “rotan” us if we were naughty, disobedient and what-not; and I guess we turned out pretty okay. “Spare the rod and spoil the child” – I believe I read this in the Bible under the book of Proverbs.
Errr, I ain’t gonna be a priest here okay. Just quoting something out of memory.The point is childhood discipline and experiences does help us become better adjusted citizens. There are cases of child-abuse but from my life experiences and talking with a few friends of mine who are school-teachers, it appears that children these days are lacking discipline because they are not attended to at home.
I used have a dog. When I was still studying at high school, I’d take it for a walk, bath him, plays with him.But, thats all over 8 yrs ago. My dog finally rest in peace. But now, when I come back from work, I am so darn tired. I just wonder how I’d cope if I ever have a kid. How am I gonna have the time to spend with the kid.
Kids love stories. I remember how much the kids loved hearing bed-time stories from me when I'm helping out my God-mom taking care of her kids.I'll just read the stories from the book and by just looking at those glaring eyes from the innocent aces, you'll definitely won't let them down. Kids learn from stories and the moral of the stories are very important for them to shape their principles in life.
A mix of love, disciple and guidance…is important for a child’s development.Which is why when I face challenges in life, I can change for the better. I can learn from my mistakes and when I am challenged or rebuked, I can question myself to see if I have made any wrong action based on my own ulterior motives.
Some people don’t. They are stubborn and hard-headed. Despite being told otherwise, they can keep their own direction.Okay, you can argue that these people are resolute and firm and they are not wavered by circumstances. But using the ship with a stuck rudder as an analogy, I would kinda relate this people as being inflexible and just not being able to change for the better despite the truth staring in front of them.
Once I read from this kung fu master’s book and he talks about how tai-chi is good for the body because it is flexible and soft. This quality of softness and flexibility is essential and it is used to defeat ‘hard’ strokes of other more aggressive kungfu styles. My take on this is that there is a time for hardness and a time for softness. A balance must be found.
The balance is found when your conscience is clear about what you say and do.
What say you?

Why Pete & Jen can't be friends....Sometimes
It doesn't necessarily have to be sex that will destroy it though. Sometimes, it could be betrayal. Betrayal of that faith that you can actually be just "friends" without the complications of more than what is there.
In high school, I had a best girl friend. I told her things that I would normally tell my guy-friends, like crushes. We'd hang out together whenever there's some time among us. People thought there was more to it, but of course they were wrong. She got herself a boyfriend and even after they broke up, our circle of friends remained.
Up to this day. I only have a few girl friends and they are getting fewer.
I don't mind being treated as one of the group, in fact, I enjoy it because it makes me feel that I have penetrated an exclusive club with its private jokes and secret language. I am past feeling uncomfortable whenever the girls make a green joke. I can eat lunch or dinner with them alone without worrying that it might be misconstrued as a date. I open up to them about personal stuff that I am more comfortable telling my girl-friends because sometimes, it's refreshing to get a girl's perspective on things. I don't mind exchanging backslaps with them or listening to them talk about husbands or boyfriends or even their infidelities. I don't judge women's faithfulness to their partners because that is their lives, although I feel for the guys involved with them and could only hope that I would be smarter not to find myself in a similarly sticky situation. Besides, with these confidences that they tell me, I know that guys need a girl's perspective at times too and I don't hesitate to tell them that I won't tolerate infidelity in my girl.
And I won't tolerate overtures too. I can take a joke, why not. And I know when something's a joke, when something needs to be taken seriously or with a grain of salt.
But I hate it when a girl acts like she can run away with overtures disguised as a joke or "friendly" banter when we both know it's not. I hate it when that friendship I offered is being used as an excuse to take advantage of me. It's different to listen to a guy's infidelity woes and to be its object. I guess some girls think that just because you are single or your girlfriend is not within threatening distance, you will reciprocate their false attention.
Sometimes I wonder if I am not making myself clear. Some people just can't take no for an answer to a question that's not even heartfelt at all. Or perhaps, some people just like torturing me with their tasteless overtures. And that, leadies and gentlemen, is why I don't believe a man and a woman can just be friends some of the time.
Some girls just don't get it.

Big Ear Hole / Dai Yi Loong
Itulah akibatnya mencari Ceti/ Dai Yi Long / Loan shark...etc...
Him jai wan cin, thin kong dei dou. Thats the only reason used by the loan sharks to get back what you owe them. And if you don't, they'll come out with sorts of ways to irritate you, hurt you and the worst is....emotianally banish your life like throw paints at your house, cars whatever that can hurt you and be an eyesore to the public.
See the kancil, got pink color sprayed all over.
Please don't misunderstand as i didn't do anything foolish like borrowing from loansharks. I;m posting this to serve as a reminder. (Maybe i watch too much TVB Dramas)
Musings, Ain't It
Sometimes, if only to show that the system is working, the government will arrest people. I just hope that the suspected bombers they arrested really did those Davao bombings. But what if they were not the ones?
Sometimes, just when you're just about go give up, something happens. Suddenly, a road opens up that could lead you to the one person you love. Maybe, just maybe. Who knows?
But then, time could have changed everything.
Until then, I guess I'm just gonna wonder if you're not the one...
then why does my soul feel glad today? If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way? If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all
I guess Acrit, it's a foregone conclusion that I'm going to move heaven and earth to see her again.
I never know what the future brings. But I know you are here with me now. We’ll make it through, And I hope you are the one I share my life with. And I wish that you could be the one I die with, And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with. I hope I love you all my life.
But then, am I going to be a fool again and believe that things will actually work out between us? Because then, this does not answer all the questions, this does not make everything right.
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand. If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am? Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
Only time can really tell if things will work out.
Thanks Daniel Bedingfield.

Rather Pretty Hangover
It's not the kind of good that makes me deliriously happy -- that kind of happy is just obscene and only comes when you're blindcrazyrecklessly in love or when you win the lottery on the same day that you find out your worst enemy died; rather, it's the kind of good that's contained in glowing bursts of yellow and orange by a small red balloon bobbing up and down on a sea of moderate contentment, coming up slowly just as it's about to touch the water.
I'm doing well at work: finally I can be my moody, eccentric self without fear of what anyone thinks. I remember over a year ago I was too shy to even record my voice mail greeting -- now I openly (but tactfully, mind you) disagree with the CEO when I think he's wrong and choose the projects I want to do.
My self-esteem is at an all-time high and not in the arrogant, self-deluded way, but in the I-really-like-being-me-and-I-CAN-do-whatever-I-put-my-mind-to way. I've worked hard on these things -- things like focusing on developing my skills in order to achieve my professional goals, and doing so with poise and integrity and the ever vomitous mantra of loving-kindness -- and I'm seeing good results in the form of praise, easier paths, peace of mind, an overall sense of well-being and, well, happiness.
Shiat, the EMO me has overtaken the me for the day. I'm doomed!

Malaysia Accident (18PG)
This happened last 2 weeks and the major papers didnt show pictures of the accident.
It's reported that a family of 7 had passed away and the GOD DAMN MADE FOCKER Lorry driver ran away.
So, being carefull urself it just not enough. You must always be alert behind the wheels.
Maybe all the victims rest in peace.
The Weekly Cycle
A great end to 5 days of grinding hard work and the next two days to look forward to. Yeah, somehow I always get the idea that I deserve the break and therefore I can truly enjoy it because of karma? After the hard work, then comes the rest and relaxation.
Over here, on Saturdays – it’s dress-down day.Yes, I have to work half day on Saturdays. Hmmm, the thing is I was just talking with my friend Marty who is working in this British MNC and he’s having a dress-down day today. Coming to work in jeans and t-shirt is really nice. Ever thought of the ladies coming to work in bikinis or lingerie? That’d be cool man…. I’d need my sunglasses to keep the glare from hitting my eyes.
Marty was sharing with me how his new job was, how the people and the environment was and what he actually hoped his new job would bring. After being around the corporate circus a few times, you kinda realize that working for people can give you a very comfortable living but you ain’t gonna be rich. Unless of course you start your own business.
Still being employed means that you get your annual leaves and if you save well, when you retire, you might have the odd million dollars stashed away somewhere.
Marty grinned, “My new place has 2 Osim Massage Chairs, a huge coffee machine and vending machine, a hand football game and a huge sofa for people to lounge around in the pantry area. There is even a smoking area for nicotine addicts.”
“People here seem happy but pampered I guess compared to the previous place where I worked. There we were slave driven but here people seem happy. The girls here are hot; err, compared to the industrial factory types, which we get in the outskirts. Yeah, young, vibrant and cool.” He is such an arsehole cos i'm working in a factory area.
The thing about changing jobs is that you get to see different things and meet different people. It’s exciting and the only drag is that you have to make new friends. Hang it! It’s actually a bonus actually depending on how you see things because you widen your circle of friends and you get new experiences. Sorta like corporate flings; instead of having a fling with a gal, you go fling yourself at the company… LoL!!!
Here’s to a great Friday and a Ohh-La-La-La weekend!!!!
A Part of our Life : LoneLiness
Sitting at the corner of a pub, I meet frustrated, lonely and sad people. Well, I also meet happy people out for fun too. But loneliness is what draws the people out to pubs or probably boredom.
At times loneliness bugs me too. It's bugging me rite now too. It’s something that comes and goes. In spite of being surrounded by hundreds of people all over the place, drinking, eating and talking to people, sometimes I just wanna hang out with people I know well and whom I don’t have to put up a pretense or my guard up.
We came into this life with nothing and we’ll leave with nothing. But having people to talk with, share our problems and joys is something very important and adds meaning to our lives.No matter how much you have or how much you don’t have, loneliness is something that hits you and me, some time in our lives.
I find that working helps me focus and forget the loneliness that sometimes besets me. Reading some motivational book helps set my mind right on the track.A friend is good to help you on the track once you stumble but you gotta get yourself standing and keep walking. Life is not exactly heavenly but you gotta make the best out of it, I guess.
Fact is, life ain’t fair! That’s what I read from Dr Wayne Dyer’s book, Your Erroneous Zones borrowed to me by my superior.The worm gets eaten by the fish, the fish gets eaten by the bird, the bird gets eaten by bear and a man shoots the bear for fur and the man gets burned to death wearing the fur coat at the local petrol station during a freak accident in which lightning struck him.
Now, what is fairness? Is life fair for the worm? Or the fish or the man? C’mon, you can’t say animals don’t have a right to live, can you?? If everything deserves to be happy – where’s the happiness in that?
For me, it all boils down to this.Purpose!We all have a purpose in life; finding it and fulfilling it is gonna make us feel satisfied. Not working in an big company or driving a sportscar. Sad but true. Who knows?
Maybe my purpose in life is to be a monk but I enjoy meat too much that I haven’t followed my true calling.I just think that there’s more to life than just work, work and work. The thing is I think that to be really happy, one has to go through some sadness. A bit of balance in everything.
So, some loneliness is also good, you’d get to appreciate your loved ones and friends more. To wrap things up, some things we think as bad, may not necessarily be so and may be something good or something that leads to good.Nothing is really good and nothing is really bad. It’s just perception.
I know this is something that i don't usually post but...hey...i do have my side of Emo.
