Oh! I got the monkey I ordered from UK. Finally from Siow it was passed on to Sze-Mien and then to JoFo and finally into my arms!!! First reaction was, “Eik? Why so small one?!”
*sigh* Kena tipu.
He’s cute anyway so it’s okay!
One big happy!
*haha*
Goodness. I’m associating self with apes.
I think it was at the age of 15 that I realised I couldn’t do anything about my “tree-trunk” legs. That doesn’t mean I didn’t go thru self bashing because of them, okay.
I was (and still is, at times) obsessed on how to get my legs slimmer (mind you, not only thighs or what not it’s the WHOLE LEG – from fat ankles to the thunder-thighs). Oh. And my feet are also wider than usual – which means ugly sticking out toes in nice petite shoes.
Cheh.
Anyway, fat legs.
Yes.
When I see SYT (sweet young things) in micro shorts or mini skirts – first thought (the aunty kind), “AIYOR! So short, my goodness!!”.
Second thought (the if-you’ve-got-it-flaunt-it kind), “Then again, they have the basics to wear like that anyway.”
So I usually like to stick to jeans. Not slacks, just jeans. Gives me more freedom and less chances of getting any rips.
*haha*
I know it’s more flattering for me to stick to jeans/slacks but these days I’m going around looking for skirts because I’m just plain LAZY (easier to iron skirts than trousers) – still dislike legs in skirts but laziness overpowers the rest of the mind.
*hehe*
I have quite a long torso – it’s NOT good if you are of normal height. It means less length allowance for legs. Which means legs are stocky. (I try to comfort self by saying I’m very “stable” when I stand) So I look “stunted” or not as tall as I am in measurement.
Unfortunately some of these girls are labeled as “lala girls”. Why eh?
Stereotyped.
At times I can’t help but wishing that I was wee bit fairer, slimmer, taller, petite (I KNOW it contradicts “taller” but sometimes I get the impression petite girls are more favoured), smarter, have smaller feet, have slimmer legs, shinier hair, nicer finger nails…
*haha*
You get the idea. Once you start a list, you get all super nick-picky.
I just thank God that I have two hands, two legs (stocky or not), fingers that could move properly, stomach that could digest food, tastebuds that work, a brain that functions *haha*, eyes that see, ears that hear…for this life itself, basically.
Can’t believe mom is more “high tech” than me now. She called just now telling me that Aunt Janet got a Cocker Spaniel.
Nehhhhh you know, T-Mobile here the phone can send pictures. So she sent the picture to me – the dog’s all white in colour one. Eh? If I send it to you, you can see it ah?
No laa mom. I haven’t got a phone that has a colour screen let alone supports MMS!
*hehe*
But I will soon! Hmmm…
And she goes online shopping, too!! Talk about tech-savvy mothers!

LC looks like she’s “joget”-ing here while Keat, as usual, with his pretend-bored-face.
FeiKei came to join us at mamak. First picture was me trying to block off Keat’s cheeky face because I keep laughing and moving about – NOT trying to karate-chop FeiKei. Second picture is blur – that’s what I meant. We keep moving about…or rather, me. I also had half masticated roti planta in my mouth.
*hehe*
P/S: So happened LC and Keat wearing almost same coloured shirts as FeiKei and I wearing almost same tone of purple-redish colour.
I actually spent loads of time internet “window shopping”. GAH! Why must you show me that shopaholics’ journal thingy. Been glued to that since yesterday night and today, too. I must get things done in the house – not just place my bum right in front of the computer, clicking and clicking and browsing.
Anyway, today Brinkley got to meet a friend when I took him out for a walk. It’s also a Golden Retriever but in a lighter shade (WHY OH WHY didn’t I bring the camera out? Then again, who would bring their cameras along when they walk their dog?)
The other GR’s name is Lucky. Apparently transported back from the States when the owner decided to come back to Malaysia. He looks much bigger than Brinks – slightly taller and the face(?) is slightly longer – horsey face.
*haha*
At one moment I thought he was going to bite Brinkley because he growled and leap on Brinkley. They both were wagging their tails so I guess it’s a play-play thing.
So cute!
They sniff sniff and then they wagged their tails. Happy me!
Please advise on how to transport Brinkley to PutraHeights. Should I drug him before the ride?
*hehe*
Give him some anti-motion-sickness pills.

I just found out one of my SKL buddies is engaged!!!! WAH!! Ten cents for you if you could guess who, Keat! The very first in our group. Was happy for them – bouncing around and grinning from ear to ear, all silly like as if I was their mom or something.
*hehe*

Took a picture of Jusco’s development today. They are now to their first floor already.

And Brinkley is one weird dog – he loves to keep watch on those going into and out of “his” toilet.
Halfway thru my shower just now, I smelt something funny/doggy. Doggy smell, okay. The bathroom in the house has an exhaust fan attached so when you close the door, air is being sucked from outside the door, into the bathroom and then out to the garden. That’s how I usually know he’s at it again, sitting right outside the bathroom.
*hehe*
