more ramblings...and a serious bane...

Thursday dinner wtih PQ & gang has been cancelled..or rather postponed..
But well...postponed till when?
I dunno...sigh...Give up organising...hah

Supposed to have gone to check out Giraffe at Dhoby Ghaut...
Guess no chance...prolly have to jio others liao..

========
Tis seriously a bane in my heart..
Well at least when I read about these things happening..
There has been some recent reports...that a growing number of women in Msia were being duped into sexual relationships with men who masquerade as bomohs, mediums, fortune tellers, blah blah blah...

The guys would tell their victims that they're possessed and in order to rid of the evil spirits within them....
These ladies would need to engage in a sexual relationship with the bomoh/fortune teller/medium for a certain period of time....

*kaozzzzz* How lame you think...
BUT YET, these ladies actually willingly go along with the idea...
There was one who even paid the bomoh each time he bedded her..

I mean seriously, what the fuck???
And when some discover that it's a scam, some end up only defaming these guys via the papers but don't wish to lodge police charges against them...
I don't understand...I really don't.

Care to enlighten me pls??

=========
Yeah baby
XMEN III this Friday...
Tiong Bahru...

Can't wait to see my Cyclops & Wolverine & Storm!!

=========
My fav black beaded belt has protested against it's over-usage.
On one end..there's a metal hook, which disintegrated...and the metal clasp attached to the hook has also dropped off...
*heartbreak*

Shall huddle myself over it this weekend...
Think my nifty fingers will be able to work some magic on it...
To restore it to its original glory...

==========
JT's review is coming again...2.5 weeks down the road...
*crosses fingers*
The last time I saw him was 3 months ago.

Hope the next one after the next review....will be 6 months down the road...
And then yearly...
Road to ultimate recovery...Slow but Steady...=))
Yeah!!!!

==========
Just got an inspiration...from purpleskies...
Maybe I will ask him too..."Am I brat??"

And see what he says haaa....

==========
My hair's still dripping..
11-plus liao...
Think I need to activate the hairdryer...
Else I won't get to sleep...

==========
Tricia...
The break-up has done her good I suppose?
She's gotten the load off her shoulders and well...I think she's gotten over it fairly well..
Hell, I think she's gotten over it VERY well...

She's practically glowing...smiling, so happy and cheerful..
Hair & skin are both glowing too!!
She looks more radiant than Selin & Ee Hong, the 2 bride-to-bes!!!!
Even jetsetting around to Tokyo, Shanghai & Germany for her job has not taken a toll on her face....ahahha

Chio bu as always..
Always looking refreshed and crisp...

She use biotherm
Me too what...
Ugh....but me no same effect...
*bleah*

rattlings

Disclaimer!!!!

*raises both hands*
*raises both legs*
*waves all 4 limbs frantically*

And yes, Mister Loke, this is directed at you...

========
Abit disappointed that I couldn't join the rest for the karaoke session today...
Didn't get to sing my signature song...(note I didn't say swan song...)
But ah well, traded it off for a work-out session...

Went for a run just now...abit punctured after a 2 week hiatus of no exercise...
But hell...it was damn shiok to feel the sweat streaming down my neck..
And yeah, I re-acquainted myself with my running shoes...
They told me they still love me....=)
Despite my absence...

========
28th May coming...
Errr...dunno what to expect...

But the organising committee is kinda cock.
No, allow me to be crude...they are fucking cuckoo.
Till now, 5 days before the event, we still don't know what time to report to the event venue.
Sighz.....oh well....

========
Finally managed to sink my teeth into my fav potato salad today...

It's odd..
Such a simple combination of potatoes, celery, eggs, chopped onions and spring onions...
Coupled with lotsa dollops of mayonnaise...
Can evoke such wonderful sensations...
Just munching on that plate of kantang salad was enough to leave me and ahboy high...

Had another bowl of mushroom soup...enough to fill our tummies...
Healthy meals today...=)
Totally no fried stuff..not even for dinner...woohoo...

We're not even ex-classmates...we're just ex-colleagues...with ages ranging from 21 to 35...

Guin's powerpoint is fucking powderful...

Ok, call me dumb..but I've never used such analyis tools before mah...so can't blame me right? haha...anyway...it's definitely a worthwhile effort trying to figure it all out...
A one-time effort...but it'll be easier the next time round I do a report...

Ok, the next step is to try n figure out the budget tables she has spruced up for the 2 business units I'm handling...damn...
It's tabled for discussions on Thursday morn..and I'm first up in line to meet her...
*bleah*

Ah Kok, we're talking about your budget here hor...hahaha....

When I Love You

Was just doing my work on this lazy monday afternoon when I received this from Ben...
A simple but sweet reprieve from the monotony of work...Kinda like it alot...
Just had to blog it down....

================
Aslyn : When I Love You

When you have to look away
When you don't have much to say
That's when I love you
I love you
Just that way

To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
That's when I love you
I love you...endlessly

And when your mad cause you lost a game
Forget I'm waiting in the rain
Baby I love you
I love you anyway

Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you no matter what

So when you turn to hide your eyes
Because the movie, it made you cry
That's when I love you
I love you a little more each time

And when you can't quite match your clothes
Or when you laugh at your own jokes
That's when I love you
I love you more than you know

And when you forget that we had a date
That look that u give when you show up late
Baby I love you
I love you anyway

Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you no matter what

That's when I love you
When nothing baby
Nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you
No matter what

No matter what...

Operation STEAMBOAT!!

The notion of Operation STEAMBOAT started way back in February.
To be exact, the baby of an idea was conceived on 14th Feb aka Valentines' Day.

We were having a 2 pax mini BBQ session at East Coast Park that night...grilling our sausages, roasting our chicken, chewing on the wings, playing with sparklers, etc...
And then the lightbulbs switched on.. *blink*

Him: Eh, why don't we try having a steamboat session too??
Me: *nods excitedly* yaya, why not? I have the pot and the portable burner!
Both: OK SET! Steamboat it shall be...in celebration of 18th May...! Woohoo! Steady!!

And so 3 months later...specifically last night, we lugged 2 big plastic bags of stuff and trooped down to East Coast Park again...heheh
Things were abit dismal at first when there were hordes of people and no empty tables...small drops of rain were also appearing..

And then voila! *he spied with his little eye*
There was a family who was packing up and leaving...hopped over quickly to "chope" the table...and got down to work!
He scampered off to get water for the soup...and errr...
I had the unglam task of setting up the table...under the scrutiny of 2 couples, one on my left and one on my right...the 4 of them seated comfortably on stone chairs, enjoying the breeze..

Trying to be oblivious to their curious stares...this girl...

  • put up the table cloth (red, white checks...heheheh...$1 only!! disposable from NTUC)...
  • took out the 2 gas cans...
  • set up the pot and the portable burner...
  • took out the ladle, the bowls, chopsticks, spoons...
  • arranged the spread of food from fish to chicken to crabsticks to sausages to pork balls to vege to golden mushrooms to bee hoon and finally tofu...
  • took out the condiments of soy sauce and chilli sauce...
....whilst swatting away at some irritating mozzies...
See that open packet at the bottom right corner?
With a cube-like thing on it? Hhehe...chicken stock cube for our soup base...Lazy to go boil real chicken stock...

And it was a wise choice to get the tablecloth
Added more flavour to the atmosphere...
And it did real well to cover up the dirt, grime and sand on the stone table haha...






He came back with the water for the soup..and then promptly scampered off again to get insect spray and more water... %$#^&%^*&............And I was left alone again.....
This time round to start the water boiling, the soup base going and the food cooking...

And of course by the time he came back the 2nd time round...some food was ready for his tastebuds!!
Oishii-ne!!



Ok, you can call me dumb...but somehow I can't seem to flip the pic over to the correct position....It looks okay on my own PC...but when I load it here, it just flips over on its own??










And tada! The aftermath....after all the gobbles and the munchies...Cleared the table of all the food! =))









Some Lessons Learnt:
  1. Good to bring a torchlight or candles cos we were eating with minimal light....wonder if I happened to chew on any insects which could have dorpped into the soup without our knowing??
  2. Strong reminders should be given to the person who's supposed to be in charge of bringing water!!!!!
  3. Make sure your skin is thick enough...to withstand both curious stares from people walking by as well as the weird insects...
Woohoo...gonna do it again some time later...
Steamboat by the sea, under the moonlight, with the sounds of waves lapping at the shore ...=))
Not forgetting the lights from airplanes overhead and from the ships lined up just yonder from the shore...
And the gentle breeze ever so often...
Simply cool! =D

But abit sinful cos we popped by Swensons @ T2
for ice-cream after that hahaa....
Frosted Chocalate Malt for him and Chocolate Freckles for me...

Ah San won some $ in Las Vegas during his week-long trip there haha...Treated us to Fish & Co yesterday...woohoo!! hhee...let's see who was there...me, lian, Xiao Pang, Ah Kok, Mich Koe, Elaine Ho & Joann...

============
Friday's...kinda seems a ritual to have our beer gathering at the 8th floor carpark..haha..
Might not be weekly...maybe fortnightly...but well, it's always an enjoyable time to gather and rot for awhile before going back to office to bury ourselves in work...
This week Ah San's back to join us...and well apart form the usual suspects which includes me n lian, SK2 was there yesterday too...

XP acting cute...











view from the carpark...










ah kok & ah san....the nuah uncles ...hahha

unglam candid pic of me controlling a burp...
Why does beer cause so much burping??

============
Went Zouk last night. Only the 3 of us, Lian, me & Xiao Pang.
Ocassional bouts of feeling like a lamp-post...but other that that...it was alright...

lian & moi...
As always..the black & white chye tow kueh...








This was an absolutely candid shot...
Which turned out quite cute haha...










And after some drinks....











Poor boy..always getting bullied by us..

Huge mouth at work for toothy grins...

ponder...

Lemme paint this analogy.

Let's say you're building a skyscraper...
You dredge up the ground, you pile it, you pack the foundation..
Then you start building the 1st floor and the next and the next...

Then you suddenly realise.
Damn! The foundation's not stable cos cracks are showing..
You scramble to salvage the situation and hire more people to patch up the foundation...
Things work and so you continue stacking storeys to the structure...

You have 3 teams.
One below to patch up the foundation under the increasing weight of the additional storeys.
Another at the top to continue stacking up the storeys..
And there's the middle team..who's job is well..to support the other two teams, whilst beautifying the structure of the building...

Things start getting heavier on top..
And those at the bottom scramble more..day and night..to no avail...
The building seems structurally unsound..
Almost as if with a light touch..it can come crashing down...

Don't know if I am making any sense...
But is the company expanding too fast?
Just thinking aloud....

==========
shit. I have not run for almost 2 weeks.
shit. I have not swum for almost 2 weeks.
shit. sports challenge day is coming on the 28th.
shit.
shit.
shit.
like that how? hahaha...

hope I can wake up on Saturday morn to go swim at least...

==========
Am happy in a way...
Steamboat on Saturday is going ahead as planned.
Have gotten the neccessaary food...heh, sausages, the whatever balls, tofu, vege, fish, chicken, and how can i forget my crabsticks!!
Gonna kope the rest from home...heh...

==========
Great! Monday night's dinner with Duckie gals is confirmed...
Not too sure where we are heading though..

==========
It's our 2nd year anni today.
Just like any other plain day...
Oh yah. Went for dinner at TCC Boat Quay.
Teriyaki salmon was....shee-O-k!

Moodless...tiredness and a sulky mood is taking its toll on me.
My eye rings are getting darker again..

==========
Was chatting on MSN...and this came up...

Leave the worries to tomorrow, for there are already enough today
But ain't that akin to sweeping the dust under the carpet....only to discover it another day again?

Sounds familiar gal?
And ya, your lang smothers me man...as my jaw hangs agape in awe...
*kowtows to Ms Linguist*

*hangs head down* hehe....

Errr....me is guilty girl..very very guilty girl today...

Jioed Ah Kok yesterday for lunch today and we set it at 12pm...
Then I was rushing through my things like a mad cow for the whole day....and errr.....totally forgot about our lunch date...
I had to attend to a client at 1pm and I still didn't realise that I forgot about our lunch date...

Sherine offered to dabao lunch for me and I readily agreed...

And then 2pm...finally settled down back at my place...and Ah Lian told me Ah Kok looked for me just now...
And my heart dropped into my stomach!!!
AAHHHHH!!!!!

Shit man...and he still had not eaten...shit...
Damn guilty... =(((

Ah Kok!!....minta maaf yah...
Saya janji....lain hari saya belanja awak pergi makan shiok shiok makanan ok!
Steeeeaaaadddddyyyyyyyy!!!!!! =))) =D
Esok nak tak?
Kita pergi Tiong bahru sana makan Thai atau Jepun punya makanan?
heee....eee....
My Malay betul ke salah? hahaha...never mind...you faham can oredi!!!

damn..gonna get sacked! blogging during office!

Do we always have to answer to others? I don't think so.

A colleague has said that my mood swings are quite apparent recently. Asked me to control...well...I was pissed and frustrated cos of work...and my take is...as long as I'm not throwing tantrums or throwing/slamming things around, I don't see why I should put a cap my emotions.

I am not disturbing anyone am I? I'm just sitting quietly in my own corner doing my stuff...And unlike some others, I don't start screaming around in office. Period.

I admit I am a person who finds it hard to mask her emotions. If I 'm happy, I'm happy. If I'm sad, I'm sad. If I'm pissed, I'm pissed. There you have it, it's written all over my face. Like it or not...well...that's me...


XP shared this with me...at the end of the day, he throws all his unhappy thoughts/images into the rubbish bin and chucks it one side...
Enigma shared this with me...At the end of hte day, I die. When I wake in the morn, I am reborn...(Mahatma Ghandi said this...)

How do you cast aside your emotional baggage at the end of each day?
Care to enlighten me? hmm.....

===========
Contrary to what some people think.
I am a melancholic person prone to ocassional bouts of whackiness....
Rather than a cheerful girl prone to occassional bouts of melancholia....

haha.....

===========
Why are the English papers and Chinese papers so different from each other?
English paper = stoic, plain....so serious....
Chinese paper = colourful with happy colours like fuschia, cyan, lime green, yellow...

sigh.....

sigh...so much so for the hoots and the woots...
Just spoke to him...got a last minute invite to brother cheo's daughter's one-month celebration...
Might have to postpone our steamboat thingy...

And I am not for the idea of next Saturday...since Sunday there's the biathlon...

=(

musings on a groggy monday night....

Have this feeling in about 2 weeks' time, my stomach's gonna spoil again...
Hahaha...appetite's been too good lately..gorging on snacks and other junk.
Think it's been overworked...=p
Had laksa today..woot woot woot!!! yummy...

Wonder what to have for makan tomorrow...hehee...
Oredi jio Ah Kok for our lunch rendezvous...

========
NB.
Was walking towards the interchange from the MRT...kena jabbed on the foot by a blur dad carrying his toddler daughter...
Dunno what the hell he was doing. Walking along and he suddenly jambraked and swung around in front of me...
My poor right little baby toe...already deformed and scarred by blisters...now aching also...
Deformed scarred aching little baby toe...

========
I think it takes effort to be a person with a big and forgiving heart and a cool head...
Gosh..it's so easy to be judgemental..so easy to be a whiny complaing bitch...
Guess that's why I always admire people with patience and the ability to be cool and calm always and well...to treat all equally...

========
Am looking forward to Saturday...
Me and ahboy's mini steamboat session!! yay! hahaha...
By the beach...in the wise words of Ah Kok
Steeeeaaaaddddddyyyyyyyy!!!

Counting down to Thursday too...=))
18th May 2006.
Special day!

Sunday, May 14, 2006

Been eating and snacking like nobody's business over the past week...
Cashew nuts, pocky, collon, potato chips...
Heavy lunch, heavy dinner...

Macham payback time after suffering from a spoilt stomach for the past 1.5 - 2 months haa...

BUT!!!!
I must remind myself....
MODERATION.....is key....
Yeah baby...shan't over do things..haa...

*reaches out for more cashew nuts*
*gulps down yet another glass of milk*
*throws away the empty pack of choc biscuits*

Tsk Tsk...
I'm apalled at myself...and I just finished lunch at 1215pm...

===========
Received a confirmed invite from the Choy family to join them for their Japan trip...
Hmm...this is tough...

===========
Miss my baby...

Looks like a small boy now..macham crew cut...
Equivalent to Botox of 10 years man..haha.....

===========
ok, Korean Drama time!
Kim Rae Won!!

body fats...

Finally did my body fat analysis on Friday afternoon at Contours Express..
On the 18th floor of IP.

WOOHOO!! hahaha...I garnered the best results amongst the rest of the girls man! hahha...

Some general facts..good body fat percentage for females would be 15% - 20%.
Fair = 20% - 26%.
26% & above = you gotta do something about it...
Average water composition for women should be about 55% - 60%.

I got 25.3% for body fat and 56% for water composition...
Yay!! Both in the ok category...haa...

The rest of the girls...had their water compositions ranging from 50% to 53%?
And body fat ranging from 31% to 36%...thought quite funny lah...
Ah lian looks damn thin but her body fat percentage is like 34%?

Anyway, me happy! hahha...=)))
Maintain maintain.....cannot get too slack..

Ministry of Sound!

Finally...this mountain tortoise has stepped foot into MOS...haa..Went there on Thursday night...
And was given a grand tour by one of the waiters...errr...waitress? errr..butch lah..heh....but a very nice girl...
Brought us into all the VIP l;ounges and the members' rooms...steady..woot woot!

5 main thematic areas..hmm..
1. Studio 54: the retro lounge area...psychedelic dance floors with illuminated colourful lights of red, blue, yellow, green...you get the drift...older crowd here...

2. Hip Hop area: RnB and "black" music...with pulsating groove beats...oh-so-young! I love it! hhaa...crowd's mainly youngsters...and most are guys...some have told me there are more malays here...but I feel it's an even mix of races...Dancing here made me feel young and dandy again!! haha.....

3. Main Dance Floor: Damn big..mainly house music?...people only started to populate the dance floor here at around 12-plus...

4. Pure: as the name suggests..the whole place's done up in white...white cushions, drapes, flooring, walls, etc...overhead lights morph from red to pink to blue to green...the lights can be abit overwhelming initially when you've not gotten used to it...anyway, we were parked here most of the time that night...cosy seats...house music and lotsa posers and wannabes here..

5. VIP lounge and members rooms: only managed to pop in for ahwile...lush cushions and cosy environment..own bar area...the private rooms are somewhat like a karaoke room..haha...comfy seats of red or white...with frosted windows to minimise prying eyes from the outside corridoors...

Pics galore....

me & ah lian..no mood to work liao..just waiting for time to knock off...hahaa... still looking fresh!

You'll Never Walk Alone...

You'll Never Walk Alone
With Hope In Your Heart

Liverpool are the FA Cup Champions!
Wheee!! =)
Won 3-1 on penalty aggregates...

FA Cup Winners for the 7th time!
Though I must admit.
They were lucky...West Ham showed a more cohesive style of play during the match itself...
And they showed better stamina?
Hahha....Liverpool players were cramping up during extra time...much more than the West Ham players...


Shit...should have taken up Andy's offer to place a bet for me....
Damn...
I could have been slightly richer...=p

========
okok...running off to dreamland...

Deadline has been way overdue and mgt still can't decide whethe rthe proposed concept's ok or not...and the agency also still can't get the right image for the ad.
AAAHAHHHHH!!!!!!!!! >:(

Been stuck in alot of such situations for the past few weeks, especially the past week and the current and from what I see, for the next few weeks too.
There's 2 more overdue artworks for 2 more upcoming ads...It's sickening having a feeling where you think your head's gonna be on the chopping board anytime...

i dun wanna grow up...

Slow reaction to post this up...

Had beer at IP's 8th floor carpark again last Friday...this time round, just me, lian & Andy...
He seems subdued...something weighing down on him...hope that mini chill out tok cock session did him some good..

Must remember to get the pics from Lian..

Haa...think it's becoming a weekly ritual already...We still have 5 cans left over form the previous two sessions...this week seems like a good time..pity Ah San's not around..
Wonder how he is in Vegas...

==========
Woohoo! Ah Kok sent me home today..that goondu hhaa...
Sent me home then went back to his place all the way in Bishan..
Said he wanted to accumulate his mileage so he can go for his car servicing...haha...


Abit dark..but still can see la hor? =))
His new 1.5 lit Honda Airwave...black colour...cute and compact...
Not bad I quite like it...hmm...
shit....is my mouth always that big???

There will always be a point in time when things go awry and you slip and slide and fall...
There are other times when you feel yourself falling but don't know why...
And there are other times when you just let yourself fall...
And there are yet other times when you have fallen but don't know it yet...

Blimey. I don't know what shit I'm blabbering. Argh...

So many things on my mind...Have to go arrange Mother's Day dinner..have to go arrange outing...have to submit report...have to chase vendor for my materials...have to go run my own errands..have to go buy my own stuff..have to...have to...have to...

It's official. I am full of nonsense.
I feel like a 16 yr old trapped in a 26 yr old's body.
I don't wanna grow up.

My thoughts cannot flow properly. They come fleetingly, touch and go, touch and go.
By the time my brain processes it into verbalised form, the thought disappears within that nano-second and my tongue gets tied...

Happens all the time...
To the point when I get frustrated at myself for not being able to voice out my thoughts...
To put it crudely....Chui Tat Lan. Chui Tat Dua Lan..

==========
Purpleskies...you said my vocab's good? Kaozz...think twice baby..haha..
I should be the one saying that to you..=) Still recall a quiz you did previously...something about profession and what's your calling in life... You were a LINGUIST leh..haa

Rad your post on James and felt a tad bit sad...don't know why...Just felt kinda down after reading it...
But I like your analogy on the driving bit...

==========
Thursday MOS...Anybody?

Might be popping by with some colleagues...okok..virgin trip there for most of us...
Not keen to cheong or what...
More like a "Hey! Let's go there so we can say we've been there!" kinda thing hahhaa....

I'd rather drink and chat the night away at a less noisy pub..

==========
Meetings galore...I spent 3/4 of the day attending meetings.
Rampant syndrome eversince Guin came on board with us...
AAAAHHHHHHH.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've got at least one to two meetings everyday from last week till next week...

Nabeh!!! Where got time to do other constructive work if all I do is to be stuck in meetings?

ok, enough of kao-behing..haha..think Guin is quite jialat too...have to be in meetings, have to plan and worse still, have to oversee our work...the work of the 3 of us.....
Take my hat off her...

========
I am looking forward to Friday...gonna have fun with Ahboy...

Heard a sound clip that day in office...a spoof on the John Gomez fiasco..
Damn farnee...I think it's currently still making its way around...haha...

"Sorry not enough!! You must explain!!"
"You didn't tell me! Yes I did. No you didn't. Yes I did. No you didn't. Ok, let me show you my CCTV camera."

hehehe....

=========
Things have changed again..
There's been a shift again..
Something feels abit weird at times..but at other times, it's okay..
Hmm..I don't like this fleeting feeling.

Wonder how things will go as the days go by...
Transitions...Adjustments....Adaptations...

dreams again...

Woke up this morn around 8am cos Adrian popped by the house to pass something to mum/dad. Quite shack so went back to sleep after opening the door for him...

And then slept till 11-plus..when I got up with a heavy heart..
Had a bad dream..I wouldn't call it a nightmare per se...but well..it was an unhappy scenario in the dream...

Ahboy was in it...Gail too..and this mysterious woman by the name of Serene Wong whom I do not know at all.
Ok, for those in the know...it's definitely not the accountant who left the company just a few weeks ago.
This Serene Wong in the dream...has short hair, is quite chio...and well..caused me alot, alot, alot of unhappiness in the dream...unhappiness and sadness and hurt.
Kns...a ficticious character, yet she's able to cause me so much hurt in the dream and tousle up my real life emotions too...grrrr...

The dream was so vivid and seemed so real...
So much so that even after I woke, I was still feeling very sad...

Still remember Gail in the dream..She didn't appear in person..but rather through MSN..
I was online and noticed that her nick was "How can a boy-boy do this to his girl-girl?". Cheesy hor?? The mind works wonders haha...
And she was telling me via MSN in the drema that she was gonna migrate to Australia...

=============
Anyway..haven't been feeling good emotionally this past week...
Popped by Guan Yin temple in the afternoon for some simple prayers...

Kena burnt slightly on the right hand by an over-zealous auntie wielding burning joss sticks...
She was jostling for space with me at the urn where we place the joss sticks after our prayers...kaozz...I think she literally elbowed her way through the crowd...

Same thing happened at the Indian temple next door...was reachig out to place my joss sticks into the urn and then another kan cheong spider auntie accidentally poked my hand with her joss sticks...

I kinda smelt abit "chao tah" afterwards...bag also had a few smudges of ash on it...bleah....
