Happy Labour Day!

I am a labourer. I laboured everyday since I returned from my studies. Recently I labour over exam papers. Woo hoo.. So I took a break today! I deserve a holiday.

I hope everyone else enjoyed their labour day as much as I did. My other half and I went for an early breakfast at my favourite Tj aru Kon Lau Mee. I do not know why I keep on going back there when I know I will only get to sit after shooing people off their table before they are ready and that I only get served an hour after I have ordered. I order at the counter not when I am sat down. Hmmm but I love the texture of their noodles and they way they mix this particularly yummy breakfast.

Then we went to pick up our kiddo, (yes we decided to leave him home so we can focus on enjoying our food) to visit his cousin at my parent's place. Seeing the two children play brought joy to my heart. :) What I mean by playing is fighting over toys. My sister's little girl is a very tiny dictator who I will christen as Lady Dictator. She would not let My Kiddo touch any of her toys. Would show off to get My Kiddo's attention only to get him upset by shoving him off the toys. They would end up wrestling each other. Sigh... Children. How fast do they grow up and start being those screaming teenagers we often see and cringe at. Hmmm... I do not claim mine would be any better or perfect. In fact he might be a terror to me for the rest of my life. So I will treasure these days. :) Hoping that he will grow up to be a lovable teen.

By half past ten, I was quick to tell my other half that we need to leave for the cinema. Early? not too early. The Iron Man started at 11.50 am. Ferrying My Kiddo back to my in laws was a must to again get to enjoy the next activity. I am crazy about Robert Downey Jr. There I said it. I have always been secretly loving his bad habits and bad attitude since I saw him in Ally McBeal. I hate the fact that I love bad boys. It teases the shit out of me. Hah... explains most of my pain nowadays, which I have fixit for. Anyhoo I am at peace with myself and I understand my weakness. Getting back to the movie. I of course loved it. It is perfect. I never really followed Iron Man until MOH introduced it to me last year in the cartoon version. I am more of an X-men and Spiderman fan. I never heard of Iron Man until my MOH. But the story line really rocks my world. I am a gadget nut. I loved inspector gadget and now with Iron Man I go gaga.

After the wonderful movie, MOH and I picked up our Kiddo and went for a picnic with his cousin and you know the day is just perfect.

Valentine's

Today my first love surprised me with a Valentine's card. It filled my heart almost to popping. I love you My Kiddo. You make me weak and you make me strong. You make me cry and you make me laugh. You make me angry and you tell me to show a happy face.. When I was a teenager, I was a downright Geek.. You were always right Doctor EEEEvil.. I was a Geek. I did not get any flowers, no chocolates or cards on Valentine's day.. This is sooo bloody sad to admit.. hahahha.. Then I went to college and in the world of Geeks.. I became the cool girl. So I had flowers, chocolates, teddy bears and valentine's card. On top of dinner and a movie.. I was spoilt. Thanks ex-bfs for that chance.. hahahhaha.. Then came University. AAAAAaaaah I had soo much anonymous admirers. That was fun guessing. SIGH! Now that I am all grown up and bloomed into.. AHEM.. DOC ROGUE.. The shody-cute simplest pink card with a crayon coloured heart and mozaic angpow tiles makes me feel like a MILLION DOLLARS aaa...

How did they find a Gem of a Guy?

This blog is not a reference point to give a tried and true method of finding a Gem of a Guy but just a sharing of experience. I have talked to a few friends who had good solid marriages and I summarised what I learned from them in this blog. I wrote it as a continuation to my last blog on why do good girls choose bad boys? Every time I met a friend who had a very steady and good husband I never failed to ask them how they found these guys. The first thing they always say is that they never liked their present husbands initially and that they had other choices whom they preferred more. However their present husbands did not give up pursuing them for months or years. These men did not stop showing them how much they were cared for. These men came to visit the family and genuinely tried to show how they appreciate them in front of their families and friends. These men were not self centered. These men would try and know your likes and dislikes. Eventually the genuine care was evident. ...

New beginnings to all Pre U freshers

I have a cousin who said, "Hi kak. U knw ka tdk bgus this our lect,Mcm2 teda2 oo the prof madya di title dorg". Hmmm I thought and thought.. it is true.. very true.. some are bad lecturers.. or can you actually say they are bad lecturers? I replied her,"i know how u feel.. not long ago like 15 years ago.. i was in ur position.. sia kutuk kutuk juga lecturer saya.. but u know what.. now i am a lecturer.. i can see both sides.. u know my problem as a lecturer? the students want me to give them all the answers.. no one thinks.. no one wants to give their own answer.. no one wants to exercise their brain power.. macam sia lecture tu dinding ja.. very sedih and demoralising for us.. u know to lecture a wall.. i have to psyche myself up to be enthusiastic.. but then i see the students who are not even interested in learning... it is difficult.. at tertiary education level u are not only expected to give definitions but u are suppose to learn how to synthesize new information f...
