Ready to Blog, again

zomg time flies, it's been a year since my last post!!

I just watched a movie on tv - Julia and Julie. It's a story about a girl who wanted to be a writer but didn't know where to start, so her husband encouraged her to write a blog but that's in 2002 when blog wasn't that popular, yet. The story wasn't all about blogging. It was about how she found her new passion in cooking and she shared her cooking experiences in her blog. Like how all great movies end, her blog got noticed, she found her passion in life, she became a professional writer and someone made a movie about her journey. Yeap, movie based on true story.

Very awesome eh?

So that reminds me of my own little sad blog that I've neglected. I think I'm gonna start blogging again...I love my little hidden corner where I can just blab whatever I want.

You know, I used to be very out spoken. I loved socializing, loved talking, loved being around people. As I get older, I find myself being more introverted. For instance, these days I rather eat alone in a restaurant during lunch time than ask if anyone wants to join. Once I even bumped into my colleagues who came to the same restaurant and they saw me alone - I know wtf *awkward* They even invited me to join but seriously I couldn't be f socialising I just said 'It's ok I'm about done'.

Soooooooooo...I guess it's good I started blogging again so I can get shits out of me....it's like a conversation with somebody but actually no...in this case...it's a conversation with my imaginary friends. =) I think I like it better if no one reads this so I can write whatever I want, but then it would be stupid to post on a freaking internet right? LOL I don't make sense.

Oh well, I'm done for now. Finished my glass of wine so off to bed.

Until next time....Ciao~

Stinky to Ugly

I'M BACK!!! 

Princess was pretty stinky when saw her at the kennel...gave her a cut and a bath straight away when we got home...

And this here is Princess with her new hair cut.

She had a lot of huge knots on her body so I had to shave heaps of her fur off. She looks like a dog with skin problems now wtf HAHAHA

As a proud calculative stingy Asian, I refuse to pay $50 every two weeks to have her trimmed! Her fur grows freaking fast and that is a lota money for a poor girl like me!!!

I've been trimming her since the day I got her, so I've trimmed her for 3 years now. I've always been very proud of my masterpiece even though friends give me crap all the time for doing a shitty job.  

Kitty: OMG she's fooking ugly!!!

Pig: No she's adorable!

Kitty: One would think you would have improved after so many years of  practice but she's still ugly as ever! 

Pig: Who says there's no improvement! I don't spend as much time as I used to trimming her now. The only problem is the lesser time I spend on her the patchier she gets that's all. I have improved and you're looking at the evidence. 

Kitty: =.= 

I know I'm full of crap wtf

I still love my Princess ya know. 

She's not pretty, she's cute! =D 

Ho~Ho~Ho and Gong Hei Fatt Choi~~

Man I hate flies

It's summer!!!
 Say hello to HOT WEATHER and FLIESsssssss!

Instead of staying away, aussie flies love humans. They would deliberately fly into your face, nose, ears, mouth, eyes, EVERYWHERE! They are either stupid or they need glasses if you ask me -___-

I know what I want for Christmas - A fly zapper!
*Zap Zap Zap* Die you little shits!!!!! DIE!!!!
I can't wait to go home where flies are more intelligent wtf

What I did last weekend

I think I'm addicted to cooking. Whipped up a feast with a couple of friends. Every bite was a total bliss....

I made cocktails too!
Margarita and lychee martini!
I need to work on the lychee martini recipe. It's tooooo strong till i had to add coke,the only non alcoholic drink I had, and it turned into a shitty brownish color wtf Total fail! Lucky the taste wasn't toooo bad.
FYI Margarita was a success! *peace sign*

License to Pat

Put too much soya sauce in my half boiled eggs. Karma for being greedy wtf 

Can you believe I actually googled what it means when people pat your head? For some reason I get pat on the head a lot. Like a lot for my age wtf I’m freaking 25 years old and still get pat on the head like I’m 5. Should I be flattered or insulted?  I’m confused.

For example, today, manager was explaining something to me and in the midst of all her speed talking I got lost. I had a stupid look on my face with my mouth opened big big. She kept on going and stopped after she realised my stupid face. She asked if I’m following and I just blurted a long loud ‘HAHHHH???’. She then laughed and patted my head wtf which after I blurted ‘OHHHHHHHH!!’ because I finally got what she meant wtf =.= 

Another recent example, the other day in the club a really tall and did I mention cute guy *wink wink*was dancing beside me and accidentally bumped into me. He turned around apologized and gee guess what he patted me on my head wtf =.= His friend later came over and ask if he (tall dude) could dance with me lol lol lol which of course I declined because I could tell he was so much younger than me. He’s only 21!!! I got patted on the head by a 21 yo!!!!!!!! The funniest part was after I told him I’m 25, his face became o.O and very slowly made his way back to his friends HAHAAHAHAHHAAHHAAHAHAH. His sooooo adorable. If only he was a few years older LOL Eh hem…*cough cough* eh wait..I shouldn't be so happy...he musta thought I was old lah that's why he silently left wth lol lol lol

So, why do I get pat on the head so often that I think it's weird? Could it be because I act like a big baby so people treat me like one? I get all excited when people call me baby HAHAHHA Even though I try to act all mature and professional at work but I bet everyone could tell I’m just faking it wtf Or even with my friends I always get treated like a kid. I get timeout or spank on the wrist if i'm naughty wtf. Whatever it is, I don’t mind getting the occasional patting on the head as long as it doesn’t mess up my hair AND ONLY IF reason for patting is because I’m cute/awesome wtf  I seriously don’t think I look cute or  young enough to be patted on the head. So does that mean people do it because i look retarded? If you had the slightest nod or said yes….......

I. Keel. You 

I'm Awesome like Kungfu Panda

Blog profile.

Twitter 

Even my blog title says ‘A little pink pig’s journey in pursuit of happiness’.

They were written when I first started blogging/twittering...like 3-4 years ago? I think my obsession is pretty obvious isn't it >.<

Last year I mentioned I was on a journey to make myself a more lovable person. I always believed I have to love myself first in order for other people to love me. Truth was I wasn't happy with myself, I wasn't happy with how I was as a person. I wasn't happy with everything that was in my life and those feelings went on for years and years.  It wasn't because my life sucked, but now I realised it was because I overlooked everything.

Finally, after all those searching, learning and growing…I can confidently say I found what I was looking for.

I can finally say with my chin high and a big smile 

‘I FEEL EFFIN AWESOME MOTHA FUKASSSS!!!!

*cough cough* *slap wrist* for cursing wtf

I am not drunk just so you know and this is not a temporary high or anything. This is for REAL!!!

Right now, I am happy with where I am. There is absolutely nothing I would change and nothing I would ask for. I have everything I need and even more. I wouldn't exchange it for the world. As for me as a person, I am finally comfortable with myself and I am happy with who I have become. Proud even!  I'm not perfect but at least I have a good heart lol lol lol *humility down the drain wtf* Joking lahhhhhh. Don't so serious!

Lastly, nothing best express my awesomeness like my wifi

HAHAHAHA wtf

Masak Masak

Masak masak is a Malay term children use when they play cooking game. I used to love that game and I was always the 'mum' who cooked for everyone. I know. Hard to believe wtf

Who would have thought the grown up version of me hardly cooks now *guilty*

Cooking is such a tedious process. So much trouble for one meal -  kill me. Go give mama a hug if you have home cooked food everyday. You're eating her heart and sweat wtf *i'm jealous*

Anyways, I still enjoy cooking once in awhile. Especially when I have someone to do it with. 

Good things are meant to be shared which include grocery shopping (involves carrying heavy items wtf) and the washing up at the end =P

 and it's even better when I get to indulge my yummy food in front of the TV. It's HK series btw hehehe

Attempted seafood this time. Live marrons!!

The lady told us to put them into the freezer for an hour. It will sort of put them to sleep so they won't feel pain when we kill it. When we took them out of the fridge and wash them under water, omg they started moving wtf We were freaking out and kept saying 'I'm so sorry' 'I'm so sorry' while sticking a knife through their head wtf I was so chicken I hid under the bench top because I didn't want the marrons to see my face wtf If they ever wanted revenge it wasn't me I was only the accomplice wtfwtf

and oh we got salmon too thank god it's already dead and sliced properly 

Our awesome yet guilty meal

I remember saying 'I don't know if I'm able to eat the marrons after witnessing their death'

and I also said 'Mmmmmmmmmmmmm this is soooooooooooo soooooooooo yummy!!!!!' while peeling the meat off the shell and putting it in my mouth wtf

Don't give me that look. If you tasted the marrons I bet you would say the same thing!!

I ma so Happeh~

Singapore 

Guess what, a security guy at the casino in Singapore said I LOOK VERY YOUNG and he checked my passport when I was exiting the casino. I repeat! WHEN I WAS EXITING THE CASINO!!! The other security guy already checked when I first enter and this AWESOME security guy seriously thought I was underage wtf and checked my passport again LOL LOL LOL

He made me so happeh~~~bahahahhaaaa

 

Macao

Tip: If you're planning a trip to Macao and thinking to stay at The Venetian, DON'T! The place is full of gamble ghost and people smoking INDOORS. I nearly died!! I reco you go for Four Seasons Hotel! It's nicer, quieter, cleaner and posh-er! and it's just right beside Venetian. Both hotels are connected!

Hong Kong!!

It's my third time there and I am still so in love with the place, putting aside the fact that the air was pretty much toxic wtf We were consider lucky if we saw blue sky!

and I almost kissed Andy Lau LOL

Walau eh this trip I went to so many casinos but I didn't even gamble. Not even once!!! Other than winning a bet I made with bunny that is HAHAHAHA Next time I shall make a point to play at least one game, just for fun! =D

I realise there's something wrong with my blog layout. 

I can't be bothered now I am just too lazy! Nemind it can wait! 

Till next time..gdniteeeeee! xoxo

Beethoven

I have finally decided to officially admit that swearing is NO GOOD! As you may already know, I swear when I talk (just for the sake of adding that spice to my sentences), I swear when I write (wtf wtf), I swear when I’m happy, I swear when I joke, I swear even more when I’m angry, and surprisingly I shut up when I’m sad. So yes, I am no girly girl wtf

This habit has been with me for *gasp* more than 13 years so I basically grew up cursing everyone who crosses my path. I blame my brothers and friends for it *still in denial =.=* Throughout my life I have had many people asking me to stop but I never saw it as something I really needed to do. It came to a point where friends called me Beethoven which reads 背多分in mandarin. All because they thought I look good from behind, nil points once I turn around and then points go negative when words start coming out of my mouth wtf wtf wtf.

A few months back I decided that it was time to start making changes in my life because I wasn’t happy with how things were. I had all my grand plans, things I want changed and achieved, all in my head. So one day, out of nowhere I had this bright idea, an idea that made bunny ROFL. I told him that from now on I will eat my fries without ketchup, egg without soya sauce and salad without dressing. In plain English, it means I will no longer add flowery words to my sentences, I will stop swearing or I will die trying wtf I was joking about the fries and soya sauce by the way.

Under the new regime, I started replacing wtf with wtt short for What the Tut, F Off with Tut off, arsehole with bum hole, shit with poo, bull crap with cow dung and so on. So when I speak, naturally the sound Tut will be my replacement and I make sure I prolonged it so it sounds exactly like the ones on tv. It annoys the hell out of bunny which makes the whole process so much more fun.

Even though I had the occasional slip ups where I was sent to the naughty corner to reflect, I must say I thought I was doing pretty well. I was so self conscious that I did not need people to remind me anymore *nose up high with big grin* and now nasty words don’t even come to mind even when I’m angry! No credit is to be given to anybody especially bunny because he was still cursing left right centre even though I was trying to stop! I blame everybody who cursed in front of me for my relapse wtf.

To be honest, I don’t see a problem with the occasional curse words here and there thus all the wtfs appearing in my writing again YAY!! Very rarely do i use curse words on people, only in situations where people really push all my wrong buttons and drive me up the wall. I think as long as people don’t get offended by my harmless nonsense then everything is good! Right? If FML is the best expression to use, so be it….I will say it with pride and joy wtf. Actually no, I'm not proud of this but I think I should just be who I choose to be. So yeah, the pig swears, big deal! After all we only live once, so stop being so uptight and relax man!

My Time Machine

I started blogging when I was in uni. That was when I still had plenty of time to kill. Blogging was so much more fun when friends were still active on the blogsphere. After awhile everyone just stopped and the pig became the last one standing.

Writing was never something I master. I was never good at it. But I guess the need for me to express myself has made me so thick skinned that I'm voluntarily stripping myself butt naked (pun intended) on a public platform showing off my crappy English writing,  killing my already very low self esteem and whatever intelligence people thought I had all at once. I admire my courage sometimes *slowly pulling trigger to end embarrassment*.


My blog has always been my sanctuary, a place for me to take refuge.  It allows me to express myself, say things I can't/don't normally say in person, or reveal this side of me which only people who reads my blog will get to know. It keeps me sane, it keeps me human. 


I was reading my old blog (not this one). I caught myself laughing out loud at my lame jokes (I honestly think I was quite funny LOL)  and crying when I got to sad posts. It's amazing how I can still feel how I felt then, which was many years ago. It felt like it was just yesterday when it all happened, still so fresh and clear in my head. Those words and pictures were my life, my memories. They remind me of who I was at that stage of my life. They helped relive those moments again.Tracing back my footsteps made me realise how far I have come and how much I have grown over the years.

Everything is so different now. I don't have the privilege of spending hours writing a post anymore. After work each day the last thing I want is to face the computer trying to come up with interesting things to say. Gone were the days where I spent most of my free time snapping, arranging and patiently uploading photos and putting them into words. Maybe I'm more focused on living life at the moment, not so much on documenting it anymore. Or maybe I've just gotten lazier.

Blogging has always been just for my own pleasure but I'm glad some of you are interested enough to visit my blog from time to time to see what nonsense I have come up with. It does help keep that blogging momentum of mine going. So thank you for reading.

Till my writing mojo picks up again, I hope you have a good weekend~! =)

Birthday Getaway to Bali

The 25 mark has finally come. YAY!! 

Can't believe I'm saying this but I'm actually feeling quite good about it! 

I can feel all the positive energy channeling into me right now LOL just kidding

I think 25 is a good age! and I will try my best to make the most of it! 

Let's see what sort of other troubles I get myself into this year =D

猫咪 Mao Mi

Friends always find it funny I call my baby dog Mao Mi. They think it's odd because she is obviously a dog. But hey, calling her Mao Mi comes so naturally and she seems to like it too 

If I ever have a cat, his/her name would definitely be Gou Gou 狗狗

Don't worry I'm not messing with their brain. I'm sure they won't know the difference =P

Love

I found love in the garden! =)

句点

曾经是我最爱听的歌，没想到它们尽代表着我现在的心情。。
感觉有点讽刺，可笑。



是因为歉疚也好，还是可怜施舍也好，谢谢你那最后温柔坦白。

就像歌词一样，我已经把失去的当成了一种收获。。
我学会了坚强，领悟体会了许多事务。
不需再为我担心。。我会慢慢好起来的。。

送你最后一首歌。。


我们。。

不要再回头了。。

坦白的說謊

看了YouTube 上的评论让我对这首歌有了另一种领悟。
没必要隐瞒。念旧并不丢人。心痛也不等于软弱。一切的感受都是对自己的坦白。
清楚明白自己在你心中的重量。。轻于鸿毛。。
没关系。真的没关系。。
这点痛不算什么。。我很好。。我不在乎。。
一切都会好起来的。。
真的。。不骗人。。
