This One's For You, Davin

Davin will be closing a chapter and moving to a new one today. For all the times that I've known him, he never ceases to make me laugh. When you first meet him, you would think he's weird with his funny antics and reactions to things. But the more you get to know him, you know that that is what makes him who he is.

I would post a video of him eating the raw turtle egg that AK got for him but I don't have it right now. Maybe later.

Anyway, Davin, thank you for being who you are. Have a safe trip! I'll see you soon, my friend....

My Birthday Wish

My birthday is just around the corner. Though I had this whole wish list last year, this year, it's different. I don't feel the need to have a wish list because the material things will only satisfy me temporarily.

The only thing I really want this year is to be with friends and family that really matter to me. I want to love and feel loved this year. Yes, unfortunately, I admit that I have not felt very loved this year. I'm not blaming anyone because I could be the one that has pushed away certain things in my life.

This year, this is all I really want. To be with people that matter to me most.

Match.com??

I've been single for quite a while now. My 'almost' didn't happen and so I am to move again. Recently, my colleagues have been teasing me about how I should maybe start dating our client as he's still single and it would probably make everyone's life much easier. Not that I have anything against the guy but PUH-LEASE...there is no way I could date someone like him *andrea makes the 'eew' face* SO SALAH man!!!

But this has led me to think about how single women around the world are putting themselves in the game by trying out these match making websites. Now...I'm not one to support these websites because I deeply believe that I can find a man on my own. Also, the thought of putting myself on a website is like putting myself up for sale or something...only to be bought by some sleazy guy who just wants to get in my pants. And on top of that, no matter how honest you are with putting a real picture of yourself, you can never be too sure that the opposite sex has done the same.

I've thought about it. I've thought about looking through all of my friend's friendster or facebook friends to see if there could be a potential single guy that could be just right for me to date. I've even thought of joining match.com to see if I can maybe snag myself a few dates..maybe hoping that not all the men on match.com are sleazy and horny as I think them to be. But fear becomes of me. I dare not put myself in that game because I fear of what the world may think of me..more importantly, what I may think of myself. I think it's also an issue of self esteem, that I may not be as pretty or as supermodel thin as the world would like me to be.

The more I think about it, the more I understand why I may always have a wall in front of me when I go out with the girls. I refuse to put myself in the game because I'm not very proud or confident of the way I look. I want to date again..but how will I do so with my cynicism, insecurities and fear of rejection?

MEMORANDUM HANDED OVER TO SELAYANG COUNCIL
11 SEPT, 2007

The Selayang Municipal Council recently launched a barbaric dog catching competition, where lucrative prize money( 1st Prize RM15,000; 2nd Prize RM13,000 and 3rd Prize RM11,000) is being offered to individuals or groups of individuals that can catch the most number of stray dogs every 6 months. The minimum catch to qualify for these top prizes is 150 dogs. In addition to that, the council will also pay individuals RM20 for each dog brought in on an ongoing basis.

Animal lovers from across the country have united and signed an ONLINE PETITION that commenced on Thurs, 6 Sept 2007. As at 9pm on Monday, 10 Sept 2007, a grand total of 1575 signatures were collected online, and this number is growing. Animal lovers within the Klang Valley also gathered at the Central Park, Bandar Utama on Sunday, 9 Sept 2007 for a peaceful protest against the dog catching competition. 585 signatures were collected on the day. This brought the total collected to 2160 signatures.

Animal rights groups, SPCA, ROAR, PETPOSITIVE, MARPO etc, and a coalition of individual animal lovers gathered at the MPS this morning to hand over a Memorandum and the signatures collected from both the online petition and from the peaceful protest.

It was interesting to note, that the YDP, Tn. Zainal Abidin Bin Azim, was conveniently on leave, although his car was parked in the porch. His Deputy, Tn Hj. Jamri bin Hasni was also missing in action. They sent a PR Officer, a Ms Helda, down to meet us. We were quite amused that there was over 20 security personnel manning the lobby of the Council, and Ms Helda was also escorted by 2 burly security personnel.

Jack In The Box Revisited

Yesterday, Jack In The Box appeared in my head and so I decided to give him a call to catch up. It's funny how you can stop talking to the person for a long time and yet, when you do talk to each other, it's like you never stopped talking.

It was easy to just continue where we left off. It was easy and it was comfortable. And though this guy hardly knows me anymore, he still knows me. He still knows what makes me tick. He knows what makes me laugh and what makes me cry. He knows what makes Andrea who she is.

Jack In The Box, thank you for sparing time and talking to me.

I've Been Simpsonized

Angry

I find myself very angry these days. I've noticed that I get annoyed by every damn thing that comes before me. I'm angry at the car in front of me because he's driving like it's Sunday. I get frustrated when my mom asks too many questions. I seem to find the little things to get me upset with people. In short, I just feel unhappy inside.

What is happening to me??
