Sometimes my brain malfunctions

I was driving alone while happily talking on my new pet, BB, with Evelyn without hand free. The traffic was pretty bad at Jalan Bukit Bintang especially at the traffic light junction. The snails can crawl faster than the cars. Anyway, it didn't really bother me because I was engrossed in my conversation with Evelyn. Suddenly my snail-moving car approaching 2 traffic policemen who were chatting beside the road. I was looking at them and they were looking at me, coz they were just right in front of my car and since my car was crawling extremely slowly, we had time to actually stare at each other.

I guess that was one of the many times when my brain malfunctioned. I then continued talking on the phone as if nothing happened. I suddenly had this feeling that something wasn't so right. When the policemen continued staring at me with the 'WTF' look, then only I was awakened and quickly put down my phone and pretended I didn't see them. But the stupid traffic wasn't moving at all so my car basically stopped right next to them. The policeman showed me the gesture to roll down my window, I can't pretend to be blind anymore so I rolled down the window.

"Wah.. you see us and you can still continue talking ah?" Policeman A.
"Want to give her summon or not?" Policeman B.
"Why you talk on the phone when we are standing next to you?" Policeman A.
"My mind isn't functioning." I said.
"You so pretty but talk on the phone while driving huh?" Policeman B.
"kns... what it has to do with my look." *in my mind*
"Sorry huh... I didn't see you" I apologized.
"So want to give her summon or not?" Policeman B.
*Continue giving me fierce look* Policeman A.

Since Policeman B was waiting for Policeman A to tell him whether he should give me summon, and Policeman A didn't say anything, I quickly apologized for few more times and rolled up my window. The f**king car was still not moving. So I acted cool and waiting for the traffic patiently next to them for like another few minutes.

Classic but very fortunate. *phew*

It's a Beautiful Day Today

Everything went smooth today.

I was kinda nervous in the morning due to the training that I was gonna conduct in the firm. Surprisingly the training went very well that I received a lot of responses from the class. The participants seemed to really pay attention to the course and asked questions promptly. I enjoyed the interactive section like this.

Since the training went smooth, my mood was good. After work, I got to go off with Don together, damn happy. Sound pathetic huh? Even though we work in the same company, we don't usually get to meet each other, most of the time we would be at client's place and we don't usually meet each other during week days also. So if we had chance to go off together, it would be special for me. hmm... how come still sound very pathetic.

Anyway, so we went for dinner together in Bangsar. I have been looking for an elegant extremely high-heeled bridal shoes for long but couldn't get one that really captivates me. Since we were in Bangsar, I continued hunting for shoes in the boutiques. Not sure why the sales girls that I met today are so friendly. I told them I was looking for bridal shoes and they were so friendly asked me a lot of questions about Chinese wedding and helped to look for the one that suits me. But none really looks like a bridal shoes until I visited Vincci Plus in Bangsar Village.

I found a pair that is exactly what I am looking for, the texture, the elegant design, and most importantly, it's 4 1/2 inches high, perfect for a short lady like me!

Simple and elegant. Love the color. I'm thinking if I should add some crystals on it. The front might look boring, but the side is captivating!

Transparent heels are decorated with crystals / stones to add the sparkle to the shoes.

I was so happy as if I found the treasures from the deep ocean. I requested a new pair and ready to pay. Guess the sales girl could sense my happiness so she asked,
"Are they for the dinner party?"
"Oh, they are for my wedding."
"Oh..." the sales girl looked surprised and immediately said "Let me get you newer pairs."

She then brought out ALL new pairs with my size for me to choose. I then slowly chose for the flawless one, to make sure there wasn't any missing stone at all. So kind of her!!

She then carefully wrapped my shoes so that I can't show it to my friends.

What a beautiful day today.

~*~*~*~*~*~

The other day I had this funny conversation with Julian
"I bought BB already" I said
"Huh? You meant you adopt one?" Julian
"BB - Blackberry lah!"
"oh... wtf... say lah... now in my dictionary BB = Baby"

A man who becomes a father.

Anne told me this evening that she forgot to bring her (company) laptop to work, so her colleagues have to setup a temporary desktop for her to use. *classic*

A woman who never change.

Quick Update of My Life

My weekends are basically trespassed by tight schedule. Err... ok, it isn't that tight actually, but when an activity is scheduled smack-dab in the middle of the day, you basically can't do much with a gap in between the day. Are you digesting?

For example, if an activity is scheduled from 3pm to 6pm, then I couldn't make an appointment with my stylist to perm my hair as the salon only opens at 11am and I don't want to risk my hair by having it done in rush. Besides, I have no mood to prepare homemade dinner as well (just an example, I know you know I don't cook) as I prefer having early dinner.

So my Saturdays are gone with the weekly marriage-prep course from 3pm to 6pm. Don't ask me why is the course, it's just a requirement to get the license to wedding. Don't understand? Watch License to Wed. *It happens in real life, I tell you.*

I think I wouldn't mind the weekly marriage-prep course if the counselor is Robin William.

What do you think if I told you I sleep at 12am in the Saturday night. 'Hello... it's Saturday night, only old lady would sleep at 12!!' Ok... refrain from being overly excited. But you see, I slept really late in last 2 Saturdays and therefore, I missed my course in Church. (Want to be a Christian also not easy one, must attend don't know how many baptism courses before baptize.)

So again, my Sunday mornings are given to the church. Actually going to Church is a good activity but if I was told that I MUST attend the service every Sunday, the excitement about going to church will turn to the feeling of restriction or burden.

But never mind, these are the tests and challenges guiding us to the path of happiness, so I shouldn't rant.

If I have time to blog, I will share with you of what we've learnt in pre-marital course.

Good night. Oh... if you are bored, go visit my travel blog, I update more frequent there.

The Luckiest Disaster ~ Baby Hit by Train

Breaking News! I was shocked when watching the news on TV. What a world luckiest baby.

A six-month-old baby had a miraculous escape after his stroller rolled off a railway station platform and into the path of an incoming train. The incident, which happened at Ashburton railway station in Melbourne, Australia, was captured by CCTV. The footage shows the baby's mother momentarily letting go of the stroller, which then rolls over the edge of the platform. Second later, a train pulls in to the station. The stroller and baby were dragged 30 meters further up the track before the ...

How Possible a Bed Would Move

I was looking for Ipoh and Penang's attractions in TripAdvisor and was curious about what Hotel in Ipoh is worth staying. So I navigate to Ipoh Hotels link.

Apparently Regalodge Hotel is the best budget hotel in Ipoh. The hotel is as cheap as Excelsior but way newer and cleaner. I might want to consider it if I have a chance to visit Ipoh again for work. http://www.regalodge.com.my

I then read some reviews of Hotel Excelsior (yeah.. I just want to know if anyone has any special experience in the hotel) and found this pretty 'funny' review:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I have two complains, though:

1) The complimentary baby cot I asked for was damaged and can be unsafe if your child loves to climb or play inside the cot.

2) I was given two single beds joined side by side to form a queen size bed. The problem is the beds move! So while sleeping, don't be surprised that the beds gradually move apart, leaving a gap in the middle for you to fall through!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Can anyone tell me how possible a bed can move by itself? I have stayed in Hotel Excelsior before and the bed is definitely not the 4 legs wooden bed like what you see in the jail.

The beds actually look like this:

Unless you are doing intense workout on the bed, the bed MIGHT move a little. But the beds move and leave a gap in between while you were doing nothing on bed but sleeping? And the gap is big enough for one to fall?

Hmm... anyone who is good in physics can tell me how did it happen?

Oh.. by the way, the carpet in the room is not a smooth type, but a rough type.
