I have yet, to understand the true extend of my blog title.

Day by day, I learn more about it but also, it reminds me that there is more to it than what today & yesterdays brought.

Life isn’t complicated. I just have to stop complicating it.

a lil too late, i know

my cat & mouse

still in my mind

jo.lynn — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 09:08:02 +0000

it’s a beautiful sunday afternoon *in reference to the weather. =))
no one’s home. it’s just lorna, myself & a white piece of thing humans call a ‘cat’ sitted beside me.
lorna’s doing her usual ironining.
cat’s just sitting there, purring. now my compaq’s screen is covered with fur & dust.
and there is me.. blogging.
mum’s been in ijn since 7am this morning. she won’t be home for dinner tonight. might be staying the night again to keep an eye on our old man.
it’s good to hear your appetite’s back, Tun DrM! the whole country’s waiting & praying for your speedy recovery as we are all waiting to celebrate hari raya with ya!
dad & bro are at bro’s bowling training. dad just called to tell grandma’s coming over for makan tonight. =)) that’s something to look forward to..

*sigh* i have yet to start watching the ‘solidworks tutorial: volume II’. with the cnc machine coming in soon (michael nash is really excited & he’s gettin’ us excited too!) despite the upcoming & inevitable hectic & crucial period for the production team.
so much design concept has to be churnned out with the never-ending projects filling up our plates. event staging has to be on standby as 23 roadshows are about to begin. also, in the next 2 weeks, my 6 months probation is coming to an end. i wonder what would the review be on me. hmmm.. oh! and in the increment *winks*

btw, a friend of mine forwarded this email to me a week ago & it’s still in my mind. so i’m gonna cut&paste the contents here just for laughs. enjoy ^-^

Ayat Ayat Power Mr.Samy

Samy Vellu on pos laju :- “BESOK KIRIM, HARI INI SAMPAI”

On TV when in trying to say he was ashamed, he said:`Kemaluan saya besar`

Samy said in a ceramah “Kita akan bina satu jambatan untuk orong-orong kampong disini”, one pakcik asked, “Datuk, sini takde sungai,buat apa bina jambatan?” and Samy glorious replied,”Kalau takde sungai, kita bina sungai!”

Whenever Samy opens his mouth it’s always volume 10. Never see him talk softer.

Samy’s favorite quote on national television for the decade is this lah:
“Toll naik sikit, manyak marah saya. You ingat semua ini toll saya punya bapa punya kah!”

Semasa krisis air: “semua orang diminta jgn membuang aiyerr..!”

Tentang masalah sosial: “..orang2 muda sekarang banyak hisap dada..”

Semasa kempen derma darah Sg. Siput:”..marilah kita semua menderma dara..”

Semasa memberi ucapan di pelbagai function: “…selamat datang saudara-mara semua..” (sebenarnya saudara-saudari)

During the height of the al-arqam saga, he said in a press conference, “Saya gembira bahawa didapati tiada pemuda MIC terlibat dalam kes arqam..”

Samy Vellu, you seem to be very popular. Everyone here seem to be taking pot shot of that rat sleeping on your head.

At an opening ceremony:
“Mempersilakan Datin Paduka Rafidah Aziz naik ke pentas utk membuka kain”

Commenting about his modesty: “sebenarnya, kemaluan saya sangat-sangat besar”

PLUS = Pungut Lebih Untuk Samy
That’s why Samy can use PLUS helicopter whenever he want.

=) enjoyed it? i did. =))

so much

jo.lynn — Sat, 29 Sep 2007 22:13:11 +0000

so much has happened & yet i still find the time to be lazy. gosh.

baby sister has flown off to nottingham. check out the wardobe we share. you might say that i’m lying coz of the amount of clothes left behind by sister is NOT little. here’s the best part; that’s a quarter of it. she somehow manage to squeeze threequarter of the rest into her luggage bag. miraculously i would say!

brother’s growing taller waaaay faster than a normal human being should. what do they eat these days?!?! don’t say long beans coz i had that & brother’s still outgrowing me. =(( but he has to be taller as he is the guy amongst us 3 siblings. it is only natural =)

mum’s been so busy in ijn lately. but as his physiotherapist, she is needed, thus all of us at home understands =) best wishes to our beloved ex-prime minister relocated our so-much-to-offer malaysia on the world map.

work’s been hectic but nevertheless, i love it! i’m sooooo glad i got into design. my parents have gave me nothing but all the support & love a daugther could ask for in pursuing what others regard as a ‘dead end, hopeless industry’. thanks, mum. thanks, dad. =)) *hugss*

september 20th, thursday .:
my car got broken into right in front of my house. wtf. bad enough to be woken up 15 minutes before my 7.45am alarm & worse; head straight to the front of the house to experience a heart-breaking moment. staring through a glass window that use to be there, broken & shattered all over the front passenger seat. black & red wyres that use to connect my stereo to the car were showing. the glove compartment was missing a stereo interface, smart-tag + touch’n'go card + RM26.xx balance. wow. that’s it. ALL gone. what a way to start my thursday morning huh? luckily day at work ended well =)

golly. it’s 6.04am now. i’m off to bed. thankgawd it’s a sunday! i like…

what seperates us?
money?
the choices we make?
religion?
competitiveness?
fame?
flawless skin & slimmer thighs?
it’s hilarious with how paris hilton tries soooooooo hard (as in by paying her lawyer a higher & higher fee to come up with heaps & heaps of “why paris can’t go to jail” ) to skip jail time for drunk driving. she’s said it’s unfair. i wonder how her dictionary would be like if she were to have her own “Paris Hilton – The Heiress Dictionary’.

att.ention/-achment

jo.lynn — Tue, 20 Feb 2007 08:27:39 +0000

i wonder.. can one get enough of attention? could attention be a form of attachment? *hmmm* maybe it’s time for me to put a halt to the attention-giving; simply to give myself a break. a little fruity babe of mine advised me to do so.

anyways, my hair is getting irritatingly annoying. it’s a blardy mess!! gotta find some easy-to-manage style so that i don’t have a bad-hair-EVERYday. quick! *grrrr~*
