homecoming

So in one of my last post i rambled about how jj was gonna leave me for a long time. turns out 'long time' wasnt THAT long. well it feels like forever. but a shorter forever compared to the inital scary forever.ok fine its just 6 days compared to 4 months. im a happy pixie. i swear la klu 4 months i pon will go n berkampung thr. i love this arrangement where he will go for a couple of days at a time on and off for the duration of 4 months. i know he really appreciates it too. the day he arrived he moaned on n on n onnnnn about how boring it was there and how he cannot wait to come home.

of course i relished hearing him sound so bored. hehe. yes yes im selfish like that. coz i reasoned, if he had fun there, he wouldnt remember me as much hence he will forget to call, buy stuff for me, n not miss me. no no. wont have none of that. n he's coming home soon! i soo cant wait!!

~he's coming home... coming home... tell the world he's coming homeee~

gonna go pick him up from the airport and be all sappy mcm dia xbalik dah 16 tahun

Macaron Snob

i was really excited and psyched to make macarons this weekend. then i read this and all confidence i had went out d window :(

Pukul kang!?!

So jj will be leaving town in a couple of days. his company is sending him sumwhere for a period of time which im not very happy about. but i guess i should be thankful they picked him. rezeki nk kawen org kate. and i am thankful!- for him. im just really bummed out for me. they gave him a rather short notice considering the fact that he would be there for a considerable amount of time. of course he wud need time to gather his things n pack up. but nope. no off days to do that. and guess wat? do it during weekends? out the window! coz guess wat!? he's got to work thru weekends as well!?! so ive been mentally imagining his company as a person, and in my head, ive hit it with a rock, ran over it with a steamroller and pushed it off various cliffs countless times.

and seeing as to how he's leaving so soon, weve been scrambling to go out everynight amidst my tight schedule of readings and tuitions and whatnots. we had to go to all the restaurants we (i) wanted to try and catch all the movies we (i) wanted to watch before he left. and the day before yesterday we went to snowflakes in kota damansara and i fell in love. then lastnite we went to  honeymoon cafe and it was just ok ok la. bt snowflakes was fantabulous! i have a knack for desserts and all things new n weird especially wen it comes to food. i wanna try em all!!!

im so glad im not reading this weekend so were can spend more time before he leaves. we wud be able to go out more had it not been for his company *pushes company into heavy traffic*. but i guess we'll have to make do. were going to his parents for his brothers birthday and their place is right before the F1 circuit. i wan to cry imagining the traffic.

ive been going into clingy gf mode which i hate but i cant help it. ill be fine (i hope) once everything is sorted out n i wave him off at the airport. ill be down in d dumps for a while and will probably burrow a hole in which i would curl in every date nite and wallow in self pity.

SNAP OUT OF IT WOMAN!!! ill b fine!!! of course!! n evryday i'll spend a few hours minutes each day imagining the things he's buying to bring back for me.

*punches company smack dab in the face just because*

old but gold

Sumtimes i feel like we're such a predicatable couple... like an old married couple who routinely do the same thing week in week out... my feelings were confirmed this morning when my dad asked me as i was leaving for work.

papa- so going out for a movie tonite?

me- yeah! howd u know!?

papa- isnt wed ur movie nite?

me- are we that transparent!?

but i guess he wud remember coz evrytime i stay out late, sabrina wud crash with my parents since im not around. which equals to her hogging the bed and result in grandpapa sleeping on the futon on the floor.

anyhoo! i cant wait for tonite! dinner and a movie. n i dont care if were predicatable. i like it! n i like routines. n sure some people wud say im boring but im not! im just not a fan of the clubbing nightlife scene.. i get real grumpy wen im sleepy and tired n thrs loud music n ciggarete smoke n d sour smell of beer makes me wanna barf. n i especailly hate it when i come out n my hair smells smokey n stale.. like old cigarette butts. i love outdoor activities! just a couple of weeks ago we went on the ATV. n i was the only girl in d group. i wud put up pictures if i didnt look like a hippo in all of them. but i do. so yea.

Tutorina

ok i know its been forever but ive been so busy with work and d stupid system that keeps on dying on us. and then theres d tuitions. and babysitting cakbina. she's at the terrible two stage so ive been pretty preoccupied trying to keep  her from burning the house down. just yesterday i got an asthma attack from laughing too hard when she wrestled me to the floor, trying to stick her finger up my nose.

its going pretty well with tuition, cept for this one student i have who's quite a pain in the butt. her younger sister, whom i also tutor is such a joy to teach. she's not the obedient kind but she doest rebel like her sister does. ill make her read her novel out loud and explain it to her later and when she gets tired, she stop and say 'teacher.... tired...!' and shove the book under my nose and go 'ur turn, now u read!' and grin. so we actually took turns reading and explaining the novel. i wud make her explain each chapter thoroughly to make her understand thestory as it unfolds. ok i actually wanted to write about her rebelious sister. they come from a broken family and are living with their mum. its sad but i have a feeling this rebelion was somewhat a result of the broken marriage. she would cancel classes almost every week. she'd text me and make up sum lame excuse. a quick call to her mom would reveal that the mum had no idea whatsoever of the daughters 'illness'. another friend of mine who teaches her accounts also has the same problem. so i have a class with her tonite.. part of me is hoping she's gonna cancel.. hehe.. but a part of me is also waiting to pounce on her of she does. oh well...

also is it mean that i bring all sorts of chocolates and treats when im teaching the nice little sister to munch on while i teach, and bring nothing for the kakak when its her turn? well in my defense, she makes this really rude 'so what' face when i teach and it takes all of my strength to keep myself from slapping her. and i thought it was gonna be a pretty and pink year coz ALL of my students are girls. but i do count my blessings that she's the only rotten apple of the lot. the rest are perfectly A ok.

I just hope all the effort will pay off like it did last year. it felt like winning the lottery when that spoiled brat, who used to fail both subjects i taught, got A's! hearing his mum screaming her thank yous made all the hair pulling, body slapping, (yes i hit my students sometimes) and raised blood pressure (on my part)- worth it
