Sisters...


I'm being held at gunpoint and no hospital privileges if this post is not uploaded so please forgive me for all the lies I have to tell right now... :P Just remember lil sis... You asked for this...

23 years ago, my parents made a rather large error and for reasons unknown picked up a girl , child from a tong sampah (dustbin) outside K.K . Boy, are they regretting that decision now! And that was was how I came to have a lil sister. Being only a decade+ in age difference, I promptly spent my formative years ignoring the whiny, snivelling, crying, snot filled brat. Hey! I had better things to do at the time... So most days we ignored each other, and the days she didn't, she followed me around like a lost poodle... Did I mention she has maggie mee hair? Flash forward to her 9th or 10th birthday, we're celebrating it at home and she goes missing... Literally. A manhunt was organised as she was last seen heading for the bbq pits downstairs and the family thought she was dognapped... sorry kidnapped. Guess who was drafted to do a floor to floor to floor search? Anyways as I went floor to floor grumpy that I was missing my Saturday night booze fiesta I heard the lift alarm on the lower floors and went to investigate.; Lo behold, there was the birthday girl in all her finery, trapped in the lift. Karma huh? :p So basically I called Emergency Services to release her all the while standing outside the lift consoling the monkey. EMS finally gets there and releases the animal who comes zipping out of the lift and grabs me in a bear hug and refuses to let go... Go figure... Anyways we finally bonded when she was much older and not as poodle brained. And we did it over cooking no less!. Anyways, after all is said and done she's my sister and I love her to bits. There! I've said it! And if anyone says anything we will have an issue. I mean, the best way express my relationship with my sister would be, to quote the Jack Nicholson, the Joker, " Beauty and the Beast... But if anyone else calls you a Beast I'll rip his lungs out!"

Till next time,

Our thoughts for the day,

Brothers and sisters, fighting is as natural as a white man's dialogue in a Spike Lee movie.

Lovers and Friends


I've been meaning to write this post since Jan, however for some reason or the other I kept postponing it. So today, I have seated my ass firmly down and decided to put it up. This post is dedicated to my dearest of friends M.T. As mentioned in our FAQs M.T and I have known each other for 15 years or so. And in this time many of us us have seen many facets of her, but we often fail to realize a very important one. I remember my first meeting with the person she would end up spending her life with, our dear Reverend. I hope he has forgiven me for certain cross cultural comment I made... What can I say? I was a young smart mouthed punk... Now I'm a older smart mouthed punk with a little more class... ;) Anyways, the point I'm trying to make is, even while reminiscing, she gets eclipsed. And that boys and girls is the heart of the matter. Somewhere along the line some or all of us have forgotten what M.T truly is, a dedicated and supportive friend, a oft times over protective mummy not to 1 but 3 kids, me included. But most importantly a wife who has stood beside her man supporting him in every decision he has made. Gone through thick and thin with him without a word of complaint. So here's to you M.T, may your cup runneth over and all your choices bear sweet fruit.

Till next time,

Our thoughts for the day,

Thoughts are words waiting to be spoken. Some people are just too shy to say them aloud for the world to hear, so they write them down for the world to see.

Gratitude

Wanting change doesn’t mean lack of gratitude. There have
been so many voices around on the latest issues. Words were exchanged. Comments
were made. Ideas were thrown out of context. The latest accusations among many
before were Gratitude. The young ones lack of it that is. Wanting a change does
not mean disgracing the pass or disrespecting the fundamental of history. What
is so wrong in wanting a change, even if we are going to regret it? How will I
know it’s a mistake if I shy away from the possibilities? Would we have come
this far if our older generations shied away from the possibilities of change
that was offered to them than? If we do regret, let us cross that bridge when we
get there. Let us apologise than and not before I have even tried to “rebel”. We are thankful for what has happened but I
refuse to say I am sorry for wanting to have a change even if it makes us look “ungrateful”.

I’m grateful for my parents upbringing, I’ve learned allot
from them which I will carry on with my kids but not all of their values suit
the next generation. I have to adapt to the time and social pressures the kids
are facing now. The parenting that worked 2 decades ago may not work now. We have been evolving so fast and to evolve
you need changes to implement your social standings. Let it be your career,
family, media, etc. We are such creatures, in need of constant changes. Or else
we would have not embraced new radical ideas centuries after centuries. If
wanting change is being ungrateful than we should have said No Thank you Mr
Karl Benz, I will stick to the horses cause I’m just being grateful and they
are reliable. Bill I don’t need for all that fancy Microsoft thing you are
doing in your basement because that’s why we have pens for you nerd. Imagine cavemen
being ungrateful to animal skin/fur just because they found how to make fire. I
doubt they walked around naked just because they had fire. Going “I no need
warm animal on body...I god, make fire! Screw the animals!” What will jockeys do without horses and it’s
not as if we don’t use a pen still. The good never goes out of style or never
gets erased from history. Why does some thing new that will make us think, and
evolve as a society has to be labelled as “ungrateful children”?

None of us would have benefited anything from science if not
for taking chances. Having said that, if wanting change makes us youngling’s
brats, let it be. From what our own history has taught us is... the brats make
history. You have made yours and now let us make ours. Let it be family,
career, Sports, engineering, medicine or even something as small as politics.

Wiser / stronger

Sometimes we hold on to the past too long. Most times we are stupid to forget the mistakes made too soon. When do we know when it's time to let go the misery and learn from our mistakes? I wish I knew the answer to that. I guess you go with what you feel right now. If you are miserable still, than it's time to move on. It's time to forgive the dick for the harm he has caused and It's definately time to forgive yourself for being naive.
There is no need to forget what has been done. This will make you stronger but to forgive...this will make you wiser.

Just saying...:-)

Why I love men

1. You never have to ask for space. They give you more than you need!

2. The way to their heart is through their stomach (some say penis) I agree with both.

3. They never say no when you wanna get drunk and they never find it disgusting when you puke all over them.

4. As long you let them scratch their balls in private, they let you nag about your Period cramps in public.

5. They don't need you to tell them if they look good. They don't really care and They NEVER NEVER ask you if they look Fat.

Tot of the day ...
I will suck at being a lesbian!

Peace out

Smoking


I am a smoker. I am aware of the health risks to myself and to others due to second hand smoke. I also live in public housing (read enforced communal living). I also like to think that I'm considerate to non-smokers' feelings most of the time. That being said, my nearest neighbor's doors and windows are at the very least, ten metres away from my front door. Every now and then I like to stand outside my house in the common corridor and have a smoke enjoying the view. Hey, I paid a crazy amount of money to enjoy the conveniences, amenities and VIEW afforded by my flat's location. That being said, flashback to yesterday.

I was on the phone with M.T standing outside my flat having a smoke and enjoying the view, when I heard someone going "Excuse me," I turn around and see my neighbor's wife whom both by the way are NRIs (read Ooru pundehs). Still on the line I replied her, thinking she needed some assistance. To which she answered, " Sorry,can you not smoke in the corridor? The smoke is coming into my house." My other neighbor, this nice old lady was standing outside, watching this mini drama. And to compound it the NRI's two small daughters were outside as well. Distracted, wanting to avoid a scene, caught by surprise plus I was done with my ciggie, I nodded my head and came back into my home. Then it hit me, why in god's name did I just agree to something as inane as that request? M.T told me to drop it as she said it wasn't worth the hassle. I was stewing about this all nite and this morning when I opened the door this morning, there she was cleaning the area in front of her house. I went back in considering whether I should approach and discuss this with her and her husband. By the time I decided she had already gone back in. So I decided to do a little experiment. I went out and had a smoke. Took my time about it too. And guess what? No one came out. I suppose her sense of smell must be through her eyes. I mean, it's not like I do it all the time, maybe a couple of times a week? If you told me your children are sensitive to smoke I would respect that and not smoke outside if your children were outside. Maybe the next time she cooks fish I should go over and tell her I don't like the smell and ask her to desist cooking fish?

WTF??? You're just renting the house and you have so much to say? I bought mine bitch! You arses (read NRIs) can live with the smell of excrement outside your windows in your own countries but come to mine and you pee rose water ah? Screw you all! Go back to your own backwater nation and try acting like this. Your neighbor would put his unwashed foot up you arse. Try this with a manjan (read Chinese) and see lah, after that everyday he'll clear his ashtray in your plants. Try with the grago (read Eurasian) neighbor lah. Go tell him his dog noisy lah. He will let the dog run riot in your house.Same race, you want to take advantage ah? You think you superior to me izzit? This orlang (read black person) underneath pure beng/kuppeh (read chinese uneducated lout/indian good for nothing). The outside, ejucated, ejucated (read educated) for show only. Won't take me very long to act like a cheeby (read cunt). I try to be a good neighbor you want to pray, pray (read play, play) ah? I activate Little Turtle the original annjadi (literal translation five foot path, read indian ruffian) on your arse then you know...

Till next time,

Our thoughts for the day,

Don't Smoke... Eat Right... Exercise... Die Anyway!

THE PIGEON WHISPERER


A pigeon sits on a bar...

Pigeon : prr prr

Brat : Prrr Prrr

Pigeon : prrrrrrrrrr prrrrrrr

well this goes on like for 5 mins

Poor Me : What the Hell are you doing ? do you want to go to the park or what?!

Brat : Hang on a second , just a little longer PLEASE!

Poor Me : Fine.

Another 5 mins later

Brat : Thanks for waiting we can go now.

Poor Me : Are you gonna tell me what just happened?

Brat : I guess she wont mind, the pigeon wished me Merry Christmas so I wished her happy holidays with her family and she said she has no family to go to for the holidays. So I told her we live close by and she is always welcome.

Poor Me : The pigeon told you all this?

Brat : Yes.

Poor me : How is that you understood all that?

Brat : Well I speak Pigeon.

Poor Me : since when?

Brat : for a while now, I also speak horse, English, German and Japanese, hmm right now I am working on German pigeon and Italian Pigeon.

Poor Me : German Pigeon ?

Brat : yaa...the German pigeon is more rough like PPRR PPRRR like that. Get it?

Poor Me : Honestly...I don't want to know! Just Promise me you will not add this in your resume one day!


Just for Takes


Me : I am sorry I have to give sandwich again for school lunch tomorrow.

Brat : Than I am also sorry I have to send lunch back tomorrow.

Me : Oh I am also so sorry, I found out you have not been cleaning your room, so you need to sleep in the garage for 1 wk as punishment.

Brat : Sandwich...YUMMY ! you are the best!
