Went to report police and that took roughly one hour plus, considered quite fast for a holiday. Then we proceeded to Lot 10.

Went to the Parking office first (Level 5) and then was directed to the Security Office (Lower Ground). We noticed the CCTV camera was not pointing anywhere near where I parked my car, so I was kinda disappointed and didn’t have much hope in finding the culprit.

The security officer went with us to take photographs of my car and then he was saying it may be difficult since the car was not in the CCTV site. He was saying other things which actually sums to I can’t help you much miss…another bummer. Anyway, he was very nice, he said he will make the report and will perform some routine investigation and also check with the CCTV department (closed as yesterday was an unofficial holiday) and could call today to see if I can go and view the video with them. Till now I’ve not heard from them…so? What do you think of the chances of me catching that sly cowardly bozo of a driver and I must admit, should be a WOMAN driver as we were all wondering (and still wondering) how on earth did she manage to hit my car in such a fashion!

I had to meet a potential client in town yesterday and he suggested Lot 10. Ok, I don’t mind as I can park my car with no hassles and also do some shopping (how to avoid shopping at this area, you tell me?). I parked on Level 6A and found a parking right in front of the entrance to the escalator. Wah good la! But then the car behind me ate into my space by about 1.5′ so my head was sticking out by 1.5′ also la. I thought it wasn’t a problem since the space is quite wide there.

But after the meeting and I zoomed over to Isetan and bought what I had to and also do not have to but still bought (just to get the free parking) I rushed to my car. The moment I walked out I saw this!

Cialatt! I was so shocked at that time I didn’t take out my camera to take the photo..bad mistake! So I only took this photo once I reached my office. I had to rush off too to do a delivery but thank God all the traffic lights decided to be nice to me and turned green everywhere for me to breeze past!

So today have to go back to Lot 10 to investigate by looking into their CCTV! Wish me all the best to be able to catch that lousy driver! But then I did stop to ponder, if it was I who knocked somebody’s car, would I leave my contact for the victim or not? I think I will cos now the feeling of being hit & run is not nice at all!!!!!!!!!!!

I noticed I have been complaining a lot, complain, complain rant, rant but as I was driving this morning I looked around and suddenly felt that I should give thanks for so many things…

I give thanks to God…

• that I can go to work at flexible hours….
• who blessed me with this business…even though we do not go out and do much marketing & sales but there is enough to sustain us…
• for a great & dedicated helper in Angie who can take care of things in the office when I’m not around..
• for my kids eventhough they may not be the best in behaviour all the time…
• for my hubby eventhough he drives me up the wall very often…
• for a shelter (or two) over my head…
• for friends who understand me and accept me as I am…
• for being ALIVE and HEALTHY!

How about you? I am sure you have many things to be thankful for…

Following the cancel Astro act, my son wrote me this note….

He wrote this inside but I couldn’t fit it into a photo..

“I love you mummy”

Me-Come Kieran, mummy love you too…

K-Gimme the paper…

Me-Why?

K-I want to write somemore..

The continuation of the note below the I love you part…

“So, can you please put back the Astro”

Me-wha hahahahahahahhaha…… ok ok but you must promise to behave when we ask you to, if not no cartoon, ok??

Weekend Updates

Last Friday had dinner at this Bangsar Seafood Eat All you Can for RM38++ but the food was soooooo saltish, ya I know why cos it was eat-all-you-can so they so clever made the food so saltish we can’t eat that much la! Aiya wasted, Angie should have been there to help us wallop more food as she loves saltish food! But despite the food, I had a real good time because of the company of course! Thanks to Angel for organising this dinner and hope birthday boy and girl had a swell time too! Happy Belated birthday!! pssstt…actually Amah prepared birthday gifts for you guys but Amah paiseh to give..so now all nicely wrapped up in my house…don’t know what to do with them! Blechhh…

Then came Saturday, lazed around and didn’t do much this weekend, no time to bake also…but was determined to bring the kids out at least. So when it stopped raining, we packed and left for Lake Gardens, it was almost 5pm but that didn’t dampen our spirits. But halfway through Federal Highway, it began to pour cows & elephants…OH….what a bummer!!!!!!!!! Then we decided to go to One Utama and let Kieran play at the indoor playground instead! While he played there Amah went shopping of course! So in love with the clothes at Gap Kids…couldn’t resist buying some tops for Kylie and Kieran. Then dinner was at Soho, dim sum & la mien place, food was good, service was even better but the electric was tripping of & on for so many times but we still ate like nothing happened, best of all Kylie enjoyed herself and didn’t create a scene and was eating by herself! Bravo!

Nice Deco

Siu Loong Pau (as good as Dragon I lei)

Dunno what dim sum but soooo yummmieee

Green tea

Boy chomping down food cos he was soooo hungry!

Kylie eating with her fingers

The other day while we were in the car, as usual Kieran misbehaved and was jumping up and down and Apah had to scold him so many times. In fact he made Apah very mad earlier at home till Apah had to whack him till he cried like u know the drama drama cry leh…Anyway, all the time I didn’t want to interfere until I beh tahan leow (cannot stand it) so I took out my mobile and pretended to dial a number.

Me- Hello? Astro? Yes, my IC number is bla bla bla bl.. I want to cancel the cartoon package…

(pretend to wait for response on the other end)

Me-Ah ha…ah ha…yes cancel with immediate effect…ok..Thank you.

During this time, Kieran sat very still and was so quiet….When I went to look out for him he was like this leow…

 Then I called out to him,

“Kieran..Kieran….what’s wrong with you?

Tears were streaming down his cheeks…boy does he look pathetic…so I realised all the scolding and beating has no effect on him. Just take away the thing which he treasures the most which was Astro Cartoon Network! Geeezzzz…..

As you all may oredi know I recently bought an airticket to Melbourne during the Matta Fair. It was from this tour agent based in Klang called Klang Valley Travel & Tours (M) S/B or Sprint Travel & Tours S/B at Wisma Cosway, Kuala Lumpur. So it’s some Cap Ah Miao tour agency la..but then it was just an airticket, how wrong can it be right?? Yes it was bad all the way.

Firstly, we were told our tickets will be ready in 3 days but we have to check with their KL office.  We are not really bothered as we were only going to travel in August ma. So we only called to check like a few weeks later. We only arranged to collect the tickets yesterday so one of my travel mate called the day before to check again to be sure. Don’t want to go all the way and not get the tickets ma..

F-….I would like check if you SENT the tickets to your KL office…

A-….errrr..I don’t know wor, you check with KL office la..

F-(raised voice a bit) No I just want to know if you SENT already, I will call KL office to check later if they received but I just want to know if you SENT or NOT..

A-eh why you raise your voice and scold me?

F-I just asked you a simple question and you didn’t answer me!

A-ok ok..wait ah…ya ya ya..sent leow..

F-Thank Q

Called KL Office

F-….Do you have our tickets there?

G-Wait ah.. (rumaging files sound krsh krsh….)

errr…mo wor (don’t have)…

F-What? Are you sure? Can you check again??

G -ok (again rumaging files sound krsh krsh….) ah…ya ya ya..yau ah (yes there they are)..

F- (blur blur liddat) Are you sure or not?

G-yes yes sure sure..

Yesterday at the KL office

The moment we entered we saw this la la mui (there those girls with golden coloured hair with funny make up & short mini skirts leh..u know what I mean??) sitting behind the counter playing with her mobile phone. We asked her for the tickets she just took our reference and didn’t even look at us, then went rummaging for the tickets from this makeshift box on the counter! We checked the tickets one by one and then I asked her some questions.

Me-Err if we need to change the passenger name is that possible?

G-No.. cannot

Me-eh,,i thot can just pay the charges and can change the name..

G-no lar cannot cos ticket bot in matta fair very strict one..

Me-so if we loose the ticket how?

G-alamak…dunno leh…err very troublesome i guess…(turned to her colik) eh if loose the ticket how ah? (in mandarin)

C-have to report police bla bla bla…problem la

Me-meaning if this person can’t go and we can’t change to another passenger, so burn la this ticket?

G-yes la…(still fiddling with her mobile)

Me-Wah liddat very scary leh, eh so important this airticket and you just leave the tickets in this lauya box here ah? Afturds people come and take how?

G-aiya miss I’m here one ma…and this ticket is useless to anyone except for the name listed on the ticket

Me-(ya right…you are either busy fiddling with the phone or chatting up some guy, yes there was this guy hanging around at that point of time, like that how to jaga the tickets wor..) If that person wants to just take away the ticket and cause trouble how? (ok I was being ridiculous but I was curious how she would answer me..)

After that we just took our tickets after checking and left. The girl didn’t ask for any identification or asked us to sign our signature on any thing. Meaning, any body can just go and collect the ticket just like that! Shiaks! So, remember for a savings of RM400 or less, we had to go through this shit trouble.

We went to the famous fish head noodle stall a few weeks ago, despite of the rain and knowing very well Kylie was feeling sleepy somemore…but the urge to savour the yummy soup was too strong so ignoring all obstacles, we went. We had to ferry one by one to the restaurant from the car as we had only one umbrella in the car…(was cursing so a few days later Apah took back 2 more umbrellas for me..hehehe)

Kylie was still ok at the beginning and sat in the baby chair until the barley drink arrived. She saw kor kor (Kieran) drinking it and she wanted it too. I gave her some but she kept insisting for more but I didn’t want to spoil her appetite for the noodles but she wailed..yes she wailed so loud that the people in the restaurant stopped slurpping the yummy noodles and looked at her then ME! It was so embarrasing, tried to feed her but the noodle was piping hot so had to cool it but she refused to wait and she wailed n wailed…ayo….

Nice or not? Of course nice la…just bought it from the nursery

But after 3 months of torturing from Kylie who occasionally pokes in with the gardening tools so it bacame like this lor..

See la it’s so bad that I minimise the picture smaller…kakakakaka

In fact I have a few pots that died on me.

Nevermind…I bought a few more new ones and I think I know why they died on me as I didn’t upgrade into bigger pots…so now I know…and Angie said the plants I bought from Ikea sure die one…but I transfered them into bigger pots and started putting fertiliser and plant revitaliser bla bla bla…*fingers crossed* Hopefully will grow healthily provided Kylie doesn’t destroy them also la…

 This is a very backdated post thanks to our very reliable internet provider that dies on me all the time.

Ok ok..maid from hell stories can go on forever but I can’t be writing about her all the time right??? But yesterday she really pissed me off max max lor, maybe upset from Apah also la. Well we were out and maid stayed at home, doing what she’s supposed to do, like cleaning the house etc..

Had a lunch date with 3 pretty maidens and me so stupid-ded didn’t realise it was one of the maiden’s mia birthday! Happy belated birthday Nyonya! We were chatting shiok shiok and Apah had to buzz me a few times to go back as he wanted to watch F1! Soooo irritating…

 Once I reached home, I immediately had the urge to bake something so asked the maid to bring me the cake mixer. As usual she will bring one thing and leave out another and then when I ask her for things she will not know what I’m referring to or have no freaking idea where the things are. My house is very small, and I have a few of you who can identify with me since you guys came to my house before. I don’t understand how she can not know where she put the things lor.

The daily ritual of transporting things to and from the house and office, she will miss out on something and usually very important that I can’t do without and will set me off screaming like a lunatic.

In fact, the screaming is a daily routine. So that day when I came back to see my son’s school shoes and her own dirty laundry still in the ground floor toilet, that set me on fire! I already scolded her about doing the laundry and washing in the morning so that the sun can dry them but she still left them there….UNWASHED! So I decided to throw away her clothes since she didn’t want to wash them but she ran with me to the bathroom and snatched from my hands and wailing at the same time.

M-Sorry mam sorry mam sob sob sob sob…

ME-No more sorry! I am sick of hearing your sorries…it has no value lagi

M-Jangan mam sorry mam sorry mam sob sob sob

Me-Let go! I’m throwing them away. LET GO! *SCREAM*

I managed to grab her clothes but she managed to grab her undergarments (phew…imagine I had to touch her undergarments! blecccchhh…) and dumped them in a plastic bag and threw it outside.

Apah-*pssttt* u really going to throw away the clothes ah?

Me-*psssstt* u think I stupid ah? The clothes I asked tailor to make specially for her leh, cost me RM50+ a pair leh! Seow meh…

Well, the scolding I’ve been giving her has obviously been like singing to her but this throwing baju/clothes act was more surreal to her so from that day on her clothes were washed immediately after her shower!
