Did I Miss Something?

The Golden Globe Award 2010.

I watched it recently and as usual I was dazzled by all the beautiful people and their gorgeous attires. It is event like this that almost always send a girl dreaming away!

All those dashing guys...young and old. The young ones are so handsome and fit while the older ones are just so MAN! Damn men!

Not to mention the gorgeous lovely ladies and their gowns...fuyoh! So beautiful, sexy, hot even as they aged so elegantly! My my, how did they do that?

I'll let the photos do a bit of the talking here...feast your eyes!

Aaww...that's all folks! If you want to see more, google it? But did you notice something? The ladies? They are so elegantly dressed but none of them (above) has got a necklace on? In fact most of the stars did not have one on during that evening. Earrings, rings, bangles, bracelets but not necklaces. Has it got anything to do with fashion? Is it the in-thing? Or does wearing a necklace make your dress look any less? And all these years I thought jewellery and accessories are a must to go with your lovely dress, no? Or did I miss something?

Well, what do I know...

Very Well Said!

Read this article by Muaz Omar and I'm extremely happy that we have someone with clear thoughts after all.

I guessed I was drown in too many silly senseless statements by our political leaders that I thought we're doomed! Thus I kind of stopped discussing 'issues' anymore. Thinking whatever we say, our opinions as the people of this country does not carry any weight at all! And when we said something not to their likings, we're violating the law while they can say things that causes war and be termed as their rights!

After reading Muaz's article I realised that if we stopped voicing ourselves, no one will know what we have in mind. So, to save ourselves, our beloved country, we must continue to voice out? Hoping someone out there is listening?

Let us, all Malaysians, unite and stop listening to those manipulative politicians who try to tear us apart for their own selfish benefits! They are those human species whom I am ashamed to be related to.

Let's create a better place for our future generations! Muaz, I totally agree with you! "You are the problem, Dr M" ...very well said!

If you have watched this movie, then you would know what I'm talking about.

This movie has proven one thing...that there are maniacs out there who use their power to manipulated naive innocent people to do things that are beyond imagination...to kill!
Sadly these maniacs are from our species...Homo sapiens. Yes, human! Sad!

They are nothing but selfish, cruel, power crazy and greedy. And it irks me to believe that some of these maniacs are high ranking, influential people.

This movie has shown it all, our human nature...from bad to the worst and from good to....er noble? So, are we learning something here?

Well, kind of reminded me of the song from Pocahontas, Colors of The Wind...

....you think you own whatever land you land on,
the Earth is just a dead thing you can claim...

....you think the only people who are people,
are the people who look and think like you...

If you haven't watch this movie, I suggest you go watch it. It's a very entertaining movie, just remember to empty your bladder before the movie starts. 2 hours 41 minutes is quite a long wait and you wouldn't want to miss any part of it.

Someone Ought To Stop Me!

I've been doing nothing lately except eat, eat and eat! I think someone ought to stop me, fast!

Next week when school reopens, I hope everything will go back to normal. Holidays over, yes? And since it is going to be over soon...I invited Sis Vera over for dinner today.

Sis Vera is someone dear to me. She is like a sister to me although we are not biologically related in any way. I remember my childhood years with her around me caring, sharing and pampering me like I'm her very own little sister.

Fond memories of her never fails to bring a smile on my face. The bedtime stories or even daytime stories, the stroll up the hills, the french toast she made, the songs we sang, the games we played.

Then she had to leave to pursue her dream, something that I may not understand but she seems happy. That's most important, being happy! I haven't seen her since...at least not after more than 10 years! And that's only like once every two or three years.

Now that I had the chance, I definitely want to spend a little more time with her. What is better than inviting her over for dinner. And another good reason for me to EAT!

My menu for today...

Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding

Roast beef served with carrot and onion cooked in brown sauce



Yorkshire Pudding made from Bisquick flour


A Close-up of the Yorkshire Pudding



Salad - Butterhead lettuce, bell pepper and onion with vinaigrette dressing



My serving...

We each lead a different life
Chasing different dreams
And have different thoughts
With different beliefs
That's because we are two different person
Just when you thought that I am far beyond your reach
You are always near to my heart!

Nice to have you, Sis Vera! Love you always!

Happy Year Twenty Ten!

New Year Get Together, another reason to eat. Of course I mean eat a lot!

How not to get fat? I'm quite lucky to be one of the lucky ones who has a higher metabolic rate than most common people. Meaning...fat retention is low? Well, not that I cannot put on weight, just slow. I wonder how many years more I can stay this lucky?

Thanks to my Lucky Star I ate a lot (again) tonight. Have a few friends over to my place. We cooked up some food, some just bought some and....fiesta!

Eat, drink, chat, chat, drink, eat again...! Yes, Happy New Year!
