Let's Bring Out The Big Guns!
It's funny how politicians work. On normal days, you can barely get a hold of them. They're either too busy attending functions, shaking hands with the who's-who in the circle, appearing in newspapers and press conferences, and giving out stupid statements.

These days, their presence is everywhere. You want an extra holiday? Sure! The roads outside your house are filled with potholes for donkey years? We'll re-tar the roads immediately! More schools for the community? Why not!

Honestly, it's hilarious when you think about it :P And I think this happens everywhere. Even in the condo I'm living in! HAHA!

Remember Bucktooth? Well, he and his cronies have organised this CNY open house, to be held in the condo premise this coming weekend. It's called "Gabungan 7... something-something...", which we think it's a joint thingy between 7 condos around the area, headed by Bucktooth of course (self elected chairman for life wei, dun play-play).

The other main reason for this gimmick is because, by April, under the federal housing act, all condos are to set up the JMC (Joint Management Corporation), which consist of a representative of the management and house owners. Hehe, quite obvious where this open house is leading to, hor? Pave the way for an upcoming election ma. Vote for me! I give you free food! Lion dance! Karaoke summore!

If he's not causing trouble and throwing threats, he's polishing shoes and sucking up to people. Tsk~ Some people will forever be primitive. Can't teach an old dog new tricks hor?

RM54,000 Proposal: Is It Worth It?
It's the headline in today's Star papers. The chap spent a total of 54K for his wedding proposal; 40K for the billboard ad on the LDP and 14K for the wedding ring. The question on many people's heads are... Is it worth it?

To him, it's well worth it because the girl said 'Yes' to his proposal. It would've been disastrous if she said 'No', kan? But to many out there, even for me... I think it's a complete waste of good money.

Sure it's grand and memorable, but I don't think it's worth it all to spend such huge amounts on wedding proposals, let alone for wedding dinners/receptions. Yes, you have to spend SOME amount. But to spend such large amounts of money just on a proposal is by far one of the silliest things to do. Yes, the person you're proposing to is worth it... But you're putting a price on the relationship already. So since the proposal is 54K, the wedding HAS TO BE EVEN GRANDER, right? Now the whole nation would be waiting for the wedding, right?

Love shouldn't be judged by putting a monetary value to it. The union between 2 people wanting to spend the rest of their lives together... Don't complicate simple matters.

New Office, Messy Toilet Users
Part 1: The Move
We moved to our new office a couple of days before CNY. Quite a rush move really, cos the old place was getting too cramped, plus it was already sold and we were supposed to move out end of 2007.

Like any move, everyone has to do lots of packing, stacking and transporting. 3 days before CNY, everyone was moving about, helping each other transport stuff, you know the works lah. Some character was being a real pain as well, only know how to stand there and watch people pack stuff. Don't even bother to offer a helping hand, just pack her own stuff and whisk off. Tsk~

Once at the new office (it's on the 2nd floor somewhere in Bdr Utama now), we helped each other move stuff from the basement carpark all the way up to the 2nd floor. Had to make several rounds of course, as the lifts were rather small and could only fit so much of boxes and equipments. As usual, that same character could only walk around the new office and watch everyone else move things up and down. Hopeless person. Mou gwai yoong! (read: useless in Cantonese). Quite a number of people also noticed her uselessness, and we could only shake our heads. Double tsk~ A square for sure.

We're settling down slowly. Some stuff have yet to be ironed out, stuff like wiring and electrical. The new place is a lot bigger now, to accommodate the growing number of staff. Got some new furnitures as well, plus a foosball table to whack each other when we get sick of work. Lotsa glass in the new office too, probably have to do something to reduce the "open concept" you know. Sure it's open concept on the inside, but we wouldn't want outside people to peep through and see all the stuff the office has, right? Gotta be practical.

Part 2 : The Messy Toilet
Since it's considered a corporate building, washrooms are outside of the office (maintained by the building management). There's a problem with the female toilet. You see, being on the 2nd floor, there are a few other companies on the same floor as well. So the toilets are shared la, between all the companies on that particular floor. Now the toilets are pretty ok, the cleaners cleaned them twice a day. However, it irks me that some idiots don't know how to keep the toilets clean.

Tissue papers are constantly strewed on the floor. Why the hell do people take sooo much of tissue paper from the dispenser, then just toss them on the ground? You guys trying to fold origami ka? This morning I found lotsa tissues in one of the toilet cubicles which I entered. Being a kind soul, I took a piece of tissue and picked all the tissues on the ground and threw them into the proper bin (I washed my hands of course). Then, later in the day, I went to that same cubicle and found not only tissues... but a the thin plastic from a panty liner AND the plastic pocket of a sanitary pad.

WHAT THE @#$% IS WRONG WITH YOU WOMEN?!?!?!?!? DON'T YOU HAVE ANY SENSE AT ALL IN THAT BRAIN OF YOURS?!?!?! PERIOD COME UNTIL YOUR BRAIN GOT NO BLOOD, KENOT THINK IZZIT?!?!?!?

Honestly, some women really are jakuns. Totally dumbos worth shooting. It's a public toilet, but that doesn't mean you can mess it all up. Maybe I should be grateful that such stupid women didn't throw those plastics INTO the toilet bowl instead. That would be far more a terrible thing to do. You women out there, who simply throw your stuff all over toilets (including ciggie butts), use your brains or go shoot yourself in the head. If you can't even keep a toilet clean, I dread to think your personal hygiene is probably -10 on a scale of 1 to 10. You probably stink all over.

Men too.

Happy Valentine's Days y'll :)

Lashes Lashes, How Long Can You Go?
Mascaras are wonderful inventions. They make any lash fuller. Doncha just love them :P Who needs eye lash extensions hor?

Nowadays all the mascaras come with some really fancy names. Turbo booster, 3D, you name it. It's mind boggling just to see them on display! As a consumer, there's just so so many of them now, it's really hard to pick just ONE.

Most of them can give you fuller lashes now, and many also claim to make your lashes curl to a certain degree. 25 times fuller, 30 times more curls, 45 times longer bla bla bla. How's a girl to choose?! Decisions decisions decision...!

I'm just waiting for the day some cosmetic will come up with a name like "Orbital Lashes, For universally long lashes"...or something lah. Hyuk!

CNY Greeting + Hiatus

Wishing everyone a very Happy Chinese New Year! May the Year of the Rat be a prosperous one for all. TanTan & Oli (a.k.a Mr & Mrs Hamu) wishes you health, wealth, happiness and love :D Have a squeeking new year y'll!!!! *hugs and kisses*

P/S: Oli will be away this CNY, balik hubby's kampung for a while. You all be good ya!

And The Rat Is Upon Us
It's that time of the year... tong tong tong chiiiaaannnggg~~~!!! Once again, it's Chinese New Year, and this year is said to be the year of Earth Rat. Squeek! It's time for the little rodents to get some lime light!

It's also the time where some people have to endure heaps of never ending questions... Questions like when are you getting a boyfriend, when are you getting married etc etc. Good grief! It seems even during festivals one just cannot escape from such situations, eh?

If you're single, people will ask you "When are you getting a boyfriend/girlfriend?"
If you're in a relationship, people will ask you "When are you getting married?"
If you're married, people will ask you "When are you having a baby?"
If you already have a child, people will ask you "When are you having your 2nd/3rd/4th baby?"

There's just no end to this ritual. Yes, it's a ritual because it happens in just about every single family! And it's even more persistent during festive seasons! LOL! You have to answer to your family, your cousins, your nosy relatives, your grandparents, your next door neighbour... everybody! And you ask yourself again... "Why can't you guys just leave me alone?!"

Haha! It's hilarious when you think about it :P I went through that situation numerous times as well, and I doubt it's gonna stop until I'm 6-feet under XD My advice to all the people out there who's thinking of asking all those repetitive questions for this CNY...

Skip all those questions. Instead, wish them a very prosperous new year. Wish them good health, prosperity and good luck. Wish them everything wonderful and wish them well. After all, you wouldn't want people to ask you "When will you kick the bucket?" right?

Oli will be away this CNY. She'll catch you guys when she's back! Muacks! Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!
