So yesterday we had our inaugural dinner club at the Vaudeville Theatre in town. I shall reserve my review of said place in another post, just wanted to actually comment on the rain that came pouring yesterday evening. It's steadily grown colder in the last few weeks, which is normal considering it's winter time now. But i think yesterday's downpour, following a very dismal day was the first

Was googling idly after hours and somehow came across my old blog, which I clearly remembered I had deleted. Somehow, when you delete stuff from the net, it isn't really gone? Anyway...re read almost all of my old ramblings... and had to admit, okay - actually J you are not so bad with all this blogging shit like you think you are. Oh dear..am i being vain now? Now how do I transfer all that

I was in a baking frenzy about a week ago. Which was a real bummer as I was in the midst of my TMC. Well, after three nights of straight baking ( with real butter no less, I honestly just cannot agree to baking with margarine...what's the point of baking if you can;t smell all buttery and yummy?), I gave in to a stick of spicy breadstick. Talk about losing your willpower. I guess if you are a

my sister has a fascination for Japanese men. I suppose we all have our fetishes, we can all dream. But seriously.. Jackson Rathbone is soo f-ing OMG OMG hyperventilate material. This, coming from a 30 ish woman. I know.. sounds so sad but there are just some really beautiful people on earth that you just can't help but talk about. And he's definitely one of them. And for this reason, I am

What a weekend. I was sloshed. Funny how alcohol can make you feel sexy. That's very dangerous isn't it? A self confessed shy girl....and how true that is ( much to my despair because I am an Aries!!!!) I need alcohol to sort myself out. Its quite pathetic really. Even more so because once I've had two glasses of wine or a good strong margarita or two shots of tequila - I'm right there in the

I've been having what you call a writer's rut. one word. SH$%!I have been worried about this. 41 chapters later, 2 and half months later, it hits me and I am shi-ting myself only because I have such loyal readers who make me blush and glow with so much Alice excitement that it's impossible to not want to dish out the next chapter the next day. As we speak, I am delayed by 2 days already and no

I am back at work after three long days. Three very productive days. I usually update like once in two days, and I couldn't last week due to technical errors with FF. I was a little flustered at first, only because I was eager to post ( and get reviews of course..I live for reviews..can you believe this? Its..uhm addictive), but in retrospect, this inability to upload had been a blessing actually

Ahahhaha..I finally got a review for my first smut. I must be a bad writer because no one reviewed it..it's not too graphic or it's too graphic? I wouldn't know now would I? Perhaps I was too technical. Oh well..no matter, while it was quite fun writing it, I couldn't quite bring myself to using certain words..I don't know why that is..reading it from the many "smut" stuff I have been reading on

I have a problem with people. I put too much faith in their goodness too easily.You want to be hopeful that people are naturally inclined to be decent and honest people.Because that's how we should all aim to be shouldn't it?And yet...And yet..you come across people who just ..what can I say, yank that hope away from you. You can't help but feel that maybe this crap about keeping "hope" is

Whew...haven't seen this website for ages.. I guess I have been penning somewhere else..I used to love to write. Even with my hideously crap grammar which I have recently realized is one of the many silly phobias I have. Probably why I only wrote for my own private viewing before ...kesian kesian.Anyway, one my favorite haunts on the WWW is fanfiction.net. Thanks to JAG shipper - i found this

I went for a test today.I was pretty sure what the result would be, but it was a nerve wracking 15 minutes nevertheless.Which goes to say that being 90% or even 99% sure about your partner's status based on what she or he says isn't proof enough.I was lectured by a concerned but good friend yesterday for taking someone's word of their status as gold. Stupid, I know.Never. Again.We have to

The AFP reported that an indian women who had recently given birth to a baby sold said baby to a childless couple to pay for her hospital bill. It was further reported that she received a grand total of 6000 rupees ( about USD120 = ZAR1200) in the exchange. A pittance.Apparently baby trading is on the rise in poverty stricken India. This is just one of the many social ills - or trends if you will

The other day, I was listening to one of Sepultura's singles.( W%^&#$G?! Joche..you?) I know.... this heavy metal group is definitely not one for my ear or heart for that matter, but this album is not too bad....because it has elements of tribal music in there that I like.Maybe it's the tribe in me, you know how the saying goes ~ you can take the girl out of the kampung but not the kampung out of

pink spring blossoms -----Dead, brown litter squashed by heavy feetscattered in the autumn wind.I'm listening to Yann Tiersen's Comtine d'un autre ete: L'apres midi ( from Amelie OST). I love this tune. It's so haunting, so heavy and sad. Perfect for those dark, rainy days when everything seems bleak and hopeless. Makes you want to just cry buckets and bawl your heartache out, but without

In line with the new year, M and I finally had our overdue housewarming party last Saturday and it was a resounding success! Phew... and that's a sigh of great relief from the perfectionist side of yours truly because in truth, I had my doubts.....It's always amazing how good food and more importantly - good company, can make even the most minimalist ( in other words....lacking a lot of stuff) of
