Daily EpiDose

Heya.. Well, long time since I updated my blog, and a certain someone has been checking up on me and keeps hinting about the long-overdue blog.. So to satisfy that someone’s curiosity (which by the way, kills cats, PIGs and other irritants) and to update all you guys out there about my life (so perasan sounding huh?)

Well, alls been pretty good in julia-ville.. Drama as usual la.. but things are toning down just a tad. Am i growing old?

end of term is nearing, and that means only 2 things..
1. projects, tons of assignments to pass up = sleepless nights
2. BACK TO PENANG!!! my lavly lavly island! YAY…. food!! muahahaha….

Can’t wait.. but before that happens… I gotta get all my work done.. Kinda de-motivationalizing, if u know what I mean… U can practically SEE the freedom and Food set right before your eyes… but the road there… well… is total crap. Kinda like, having to drive really far and agonise in traffic jams, before getting to that far-off destination that has the best, straight from the sea, Tomyam Butter Baked Flower Crabs …. YUMMmmmMMMmmmmmm….
*AHEM*
sorry for that interruption…

What else can I say? The obvious… I MISS ALL MY FRIENDS!!!!! And I really really hope we can get together in Penang and go mamak!! All the nicotine-infused, teh tarik driven, bitching sessions we can get!

Oh ya.. saw a COCKROACH in my room last night.. luckily a Mr. Macho helped me kill it (even though he was afraid of cockroaches too..). I swear if that thingy crawled onto my face when I was sleeping….!!! Hell breaks Loose!!

Besides that, lately certain things have been happening to show me that, Hey, friends are really friends.. I know that sounds kinda weird, but read on…
Sometimes, you think you can get away with certain problems and not tell anyone about it… and guess what?? They knew all along… and just jumped in to help. With or without permission.
Just wanna say thanks to Rex (Stitch panty-face) and Eelyn (Yzmatic Mickey) for really being here for me… I know la.. some stupid crappy love thingy which should be the least of my problems.. well, you guys have seen me through the Bad, Good, Stupid & Ugly.
Big Hug..

And then, LIFE itself has been.. interesting. Before I launch into some deep, mind soul searching thingy.. I’d just like to Spread me wonderful Self-said Motto to all you yet-to-be-initiated earthlings…
"Take every event, every day & every moment as a Lesson to be learnt."

*right at this moment, some people are groaning.. the ones who’ve been initiated.. hahaha.. i know.. you’ve heard this a 1000 times..but let me continue for the unknowing masses*

In everything that happens to you, there is always something to be learnt.. In problems, we learn our mistakes and see our flaws.. To learn, we have to identify our flaws and then see the lesson to be learnt. Not to break, but to make stronger. Whatever happens, the important thing is that we are still HERE.

To my biatch, Joanne… That was for you… and for all of those out there right now, facing problems.. You guys are not alone! Julia-Pig is here!!  =(:)

Besides, that… I’m just amazed at how life works out its little kinks sometimes… Really..

When you look so friggin’ hard, you cant find anything..
And when you’re not looking at all, things just hit you in the face…

Therefore,
                Moral Of The Day:

"Don’t buy spectacles."

Bombings in London. Who’s proving what point?

Let’s pray for the victims, their families as well as our friends and family who are there.
Crap, some people have nothing better than to devote their whole lives to a fanatical mindset and destroy other peoples’ lives. WTF are they trying to prove?!

So far, no reports of Malaysian casualties, which is a relief. But on the other hand, people have died. So it isn’t exactly a "phew" moment. Life’s so short isn’t it?

But life goes on, and I believe those responsible for all the sicko bombings will receive their due judgement. Adversity brings strength.

=======================================================

On a lighter and more menial note, I just need to vent right now..

My hands resemble a used sponge and my fingers can’t bend properly.
Haven’t slept the whole night, was about to do my work but then I needed to take a bath.

I stepped into the bathroom, and noticed that it was friggin filthy!
Again!
I have this obsession about bathrooms and if I step into a really dirty one, I start to itch.

So as usual, I cleaned the bathroom and basically, everything’s shining and squeaky clean.
For now.

I just can’t wait til the next time after a while when everyone’s grubbed it up, and I get to wash the bathroom again! Yay!

But, I just don’t get it! 5 people stay in the house, and since it’s the downstairs toilet, everyone uses it as well as their friends.

Public toilet. One maid.

Me.

I don’t mind, but there’s this culture here that somehow makes people step into the bathroom with their SHOES on. Am gonna provide sandals specifically for entering the bathroom. Jeez. You’d think, that in this age, we should ALL already been toilet trained.

And let’s not even talk about the kitchen and the hall. I don’t utilise these areas, so they can have 6 inches of dirt on the floor for all I care. But sia suey when friends visit. Ish…

Already have so much work to do, without having to be a maid for these people.

I know.. make a roster right? Hmph. Think that’ll work?

So yeah, as a resident Maria, I shall continue until a day I explode. GrRr..

For my housemates’ sakes, pray that doesn’t happen. Ever.

~Toilet cleaned, marm~

Til next time.
