Confusions…and dinner tonight…

Posted under Happy days, Masakan


Dinner tonight, Paprik Ayam, Sambal Belacan with grilled aubergine, and Telur Bungkus

Hah I got what I wanted, and now I am more confused than ever! Goodness gracious me, now I gotta go to the library and get a book to understand this thing. I had been asking for it for months now. And now I finally got it. Yes, I got photoshop 8, and the husband had installed it for me this evening. Ahhh all the different menus. All the confusing things for me to explore. So to the library it is tomorrow. Tomorrow….yes, tomorrow.

Do I want to post this up?

Posted under Nothing in particular....

Here I said that I am not gonna rant. Well, this is not exactly ranting. I don’t know exactly what I would say this is, probably my mind’s capriciously wandering about certain things. About certain bird-brained cretin, actually *laughs*. Or what Katie would term as dork.
I have been so blessed in my short life. I had always been surrounded with people whom are considerate, thoughtful, trustworthy, dependable (at times hehehe… ) and tolerant. Lots of them had been tolerant when they happen to chance upon any aberration in life, be it circumstances or individuals. Well, I am usually are quite unperturbed when faced with these creatures. I said creatures because I am talking about cretins here, not circumstances *lol*
Oh my where should I start. I spent my first 18 yrs in Kedah. All of them, and none were spent elsewhere because I did not go to boarding school (was not smart enough like my adik), and mom didn’t work elsewhere, just in Kedah. So in Kedah we stayed. Went to two different grade school, and off to the same high school till I finished SPM. Went off to study in the states, then moved to the UK. Married, then blessed with my gorgeous daughter. The princess whom daddy doted on, whom mommy adore. Your typical average family.
I wrote here about my friends. I have been so blessed, like I mentioned earlier.
I don’t know whether I should still continue with this…I am already having second thoughts. After all, the cretin is a stranger. I felt as if an interloper is intruding my quiet, married life. Oblivious to me, this cretin goes about inquiring things about me (and the husband, it seems, too… muahahahah). I don’t want to be harsh, neither do I want to appear boorish. But your attentions are simply not wanted, not acceptable. Not desirable. Not enough adjectives I could use to describe how much I despise this situation. Hopefully she reads this (oh yes, she came to my humble abode and told others about it, too), and realizes what a bug she had become. At least to me. All that matters, because this is about me. Enough cretin. Enough.

It’s already 9.00am. And it looks gloomy. And dark. And definitely chilly outside. I am just a wimp. A wuss. I know I know. It is not that cold to freeze my a@@. I know we are expecting some cold front this week, ditto the prediction of some snow, too. The weather forcaster(ade ke?) said so. So it shall be gloomy week for us here *sigh*
We should get ready and forge ahead to Columbia Road or Borough Market, right? Found out that Borough Market opens from Monday to Saturday. Today is Sunday. So there goes the plan for Borough Market.
But wait! I have a contigency plan! Columbia Road here we come. Errrr…It’s cold and gloomy outside, OK? How in the world can I take pictures in gloomy weather? (Read-i)I don’t want to brave the cold. ii)My picture taking skills are not that good, especially in warm weather (or was it just the camera? hahahah )
Let’s just hope I could see some clear sky amidst the dark, and gloomy clouds. Because I really wanted to go to Columbia Road today. Really.

Edited at about 11 am
The weather was sooo sunny, for like an hour just now. And now, back to the normal grey. Haish. And I was so delighted because we could enjoy the weekend, after all. But alas, it was not meant to be. It is not as chilly (though still quite cold) as I thought it might be. Only breezy. A very nice weather, all in all. If only the sun could escape the suffocating clouds. And while taking this picture, I can feel droplets of rain on my head. Sigh. There goes our plan for the day. Though a lot of patrons and almost all the vendors would be there, I don’t think we would. I have this thing about rain. I just don’t press on, I like to be dry. hehehe….

See? The picture was taken before 11 am. Sigh….and right now, I could see some sprinkling of rain on the window pane. Bye bye my plan for the day…Welcome rain…welcome back, again. Ah well, I’m just gonna start cooking lunch, then.

Edited (again) at about 1.00pm
While cooking lunch, the weather changes from gloomy to clear blue skies, then back to gloomy again. I took this picture while the chicken was simmering on the stove. From our front door, just like the previous picture. See ? And it was taken around 1.00pm. We can definitely say goodbye to the plan to Columbia Road, next week, perhaps?

It is so exasperating when dealing with fickle and unpredictable weather. We might just head out after lunch (when both babies are up from their noon nap :p ) to go to any park. And take pictures. Because I did say that I wanted to take pictures of any blooms. Or maybe I should just head to a nursery, right? Would they be opened on Sunday, though????

Edited (once again) at about 3.00pm to include this
