I had a nightmare...
that I forgot what USP stands for on the first day of work!
I’m pathetically living my ideal life vicariously through Gerald Durrell’s My Family And Other Animals.
A Saturday...
…spent sharpening a bouquet of pencils is a Saturday well spent.
I have (several reasons) to believe that...
1. (One of my best-friends) is married to a Republican, but I adore them just the same;
2. That “Brands Analyst” job interview went well, even though the job itself feels like a royal scam;
3. I might get do*ced for No. 2;
4. Corporate communications has never been my forte, anyway (and every time I type this out I hear my cousin’s fake Malaysian-midwestern-Chicagoan-nasal...
I don't get it...
You’re not the one who has to live with being ugly, I do, so how is it your problem?

Oy vey!
So this “happened” to me tonight, and it made me laugh to near peeing and then I almost cried because it so happens I’m PMS-ing.
Shame on me for “supporting” those delicious looking American “brats”.
Him: Well, I let you like them, and I can enjoy my sports and the athletes that respect the Olympics…not the spoiled brats that take millions just...

The final stanza.
Okay so...
my parents and I were watching the E! Special Behind The Scenes: Valentine’s Day.
Okay, first of all, I think I need to talk about my dad, and my mum and how they love watching Oprah so much that’s it’s become their daily noon activity, post-retirement. Through Oprah, my dad gets his daily dose of pop-culture (pop-medicine, pop-news, pop for pops). My mother on the other hand,...
I didn't forget...
the film adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s Where The Wild Things Are, but it’s not being nominated, is it?
The book allowed my mother —who studied it in university as part of her “Writing Literature for Children” component —to allow her daughters free rein (you may substitute this for “reign”, but you know you’re wrong, and “My momma taught...
If that dream...
taught me anything, it’s to have faith even when in doubt, and that God protects everyone, even the sleeping. And, thank God for that.
I'm grey impaired...
because I can only see in absolutes.
I hope...
Fantastic Mr. Fox and Up win an Oscar each. They were the only two films worth watching in 2009.
(Of course there were a few other watchable films like Invictus, (maybe) Taking Woodstock, the first half an hour of 500 Days, and Food, Inc., but these two top my list.)
WatchOur reluctance to acknowledge our differences is stopping us from embracing them.
Why should we be “one” when we can be “many”?
I'd like to...
sic a MENSA test on the next idiot who declares a person with Autism “mentally disabled” and “diseased”. I’m truly disgusted with the bureaucrats simpletons at Malaysia’s Education Ministry for being ill-equipped to cater to children whose needs are different (not more, but different) than most. A majority of young people with Autism have had to abandon...
Just sometimes...
I wish I could lean more towards “perfect” than “im-perfect”.
A few things before bed:
1. Vedder’s still hot;
2. Campbell Scott in that Mudhoney t-shirt is superhot (only because it’s Campbell Scott in a Mudhoney t-shirt);
3. Campbell Scott’s still hot;
4. I might still have a crush on Matt Dillon;
5. I can’t believe I used to weep to Waiting for Somebody (I was such an old eight year old);
6. I also can’t believe that I’m already 25 (Fuck,...
