1. Every breathing living thing irritates the life out of you
2. You get mad when your boyfriend walks 2 steps infront of you
3. You get mad at no apparent reason at all.
4. You get extremely cranky when you get half hour less sleep than normal.
5. The person who stands infront of you in the MRT irritates you because he/she has more gray hair than they are supposed to at their age even though its none of your business.
6. Your boyfriend gets called a bastard, liar, idiot, stupid, etc even though it is not his slightest fault
7. You get irritated when your boyfriend asks "Do you love me?" as though it is a stupid question to ask.
8. You get frustrated at the boyfriend when he is 1 minute late.
9. You make a fuss when you cant get what you want NOW, and not 2 seconds later, and then slam down the phone at your boyfriend while you are a fusspot.
10. Your boyfriends life is made difficult when the world tempreature increases/decreases by 1 degrees.

And yea, those pills that I was taking, didnt work apparently.

2 weeks of hell, who is going to bear the cost? Mr Grumpy of course. (ooh it rhymes, must be fated).

I have to wear a mask in office you know? Everything is kept and unleashed AFTER 530 pm when work officially finishes.

I was talking to a certain individual while surfing the net for luxe goods. Specifically, Dior handbags. Seriously I like the Dior Gaucho (go Google it!) collection. But since I cant afford it (yet!) I have to resort to viewing it on the net.

So I decided to share my 'joy' with this certain individual regarding the Dior Gaucho collection, and which particular design I liked. Then this certain individual dropped the bombshell:

"I'm going to buy Dior this Sunday"

*BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPP*!!!!

In my face I tell you.... I can only view on the net, she is on her way to owning one of her own.... once again..

*BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPP*!!!!

*Growllll*

(sorry, no cursing on my web okie?)

I hope... I hope... all the Nam Heong chicken rice in the world goes out of stock for one month!!!!!!!!

Read this:

If that is the case, I wouldnt be relocating elsewhere wouldnt I? I wouldnt uproot from my comfortable home, nice colleagues, and no worries to pay bills life if this is true. Shit, they should just increase our pay to be comparable to the US dollar THEN I will say its the least expensive city to live in.

This is call brain washing the people. It would be least expensive for the foreigners who earn USD. Try earning RM and see how u scrape through the month with a meagre salary of RM2,500 a month (equivalent to USD 690).

Of course, I'm not against the government. Just the employers who dont want to increase our pay equivalent to the inflation suffered.

*rant*rant*rant*

I had headache this morning, but not severe enough to warrant an MC.

But he gave me a kiss to make me feel better and sang:

"I am your sunshine, your only sunshine, I make you happy, when skies are grey......"

I realised most of my post are about Mr Grumpy. But thats not the point. I'll get to write something not Mr Grumpy-like when I have actually am finished with him (which I hope not to.. heh)

So I'm going to prove how single minded a male is.

Enter exhibit A. Mr Grumpy.

While waiting for our Char Kuay Teow. He stands right in front of the Char Kuay Teow Woman and watch her fry our Char Kuay Teow. So while standing there bored.. I asked him

So is she frying ours now?

*silence* Mr Grumpy watches Char Kuay Teow Woman fry for 10 seconds.

and THEN Mr Grumpy goes

Huh? What did you say?

I'm like ??????? I waited 10 seconds for that response?

*silence* Mr Grumpy watches the Char Kuay Teow Woman fry for another 10 seconds.

THEN goes again

Huh?

Sighs.. men...

Sunshine and rainbows are out (minus the damn haze). Lets all throw rose petals and conffetti all over and skip happily towards happiness (ugh... if that makes sense). For a week I will not feel fat/ugly/horrible/flabby/extremely distasteful/etc (oy, even thin pple have their fat and ugly days ok. I no longer can fit into my XS jeans without bursting its seams on a bloated fat day. On that day I feel ugly and horrible).

Anyone for that matter has ONE week plus plus to take full advantage of me before the next PMS cycle of doom starts (push it too far, the cycle of doom starts earlier, simple as that)

For the mean time: Happy happy happy.

P/S: Am taking the advice to take pills/supplements/whatevernots to tone down my mood swings, we'll see how that goes.

P/P/S: Taken for only a few days. So the outburst happened a few days ago was NOT my fault. Yes yes. NOT my fault. Blame PMS. Ok? It's even proven medically that you can get away with murder for murdering someone because of PMS. Be extremely GLAD I dont go towards that extent.

I'm due for the doctor soon. Mr Grumpy has gone to work. So while I cant breathe while lying down, I might as well sit up at the computer to do blog (instead of, you know, staring at four walls..). I'm so glad I have internet!

Anyway, I thought I show you how Mr Grumpy is so nice to me today when he had lack of sleep because of me whining and sniffing in the wee hours of the morning. He had to pat me before I calmed down (patting is good for relieving discomfort, dont you know? Why do you pat babies to sleep then?). Before he left, he gave me a big hug and kiss (though there is sickness lingering all around me, but I think he wants to get mc as well), tucked me to bed (and I kicked my blankie away because it was hot and cranky),

got me a bottle of water, put the remote control for the fan near me

got Mr Whale, who is supposed to supply me with tissues

and Mr Bunny who is supposed to take care of me and give me big hugs when I am cranky and my nose and brain is stuffed up with mucus.

This is my sick bed. Comfy eh?


I'm off to the doctors now. Sigh. And I have to walk. I contemplated calling a taxi, but it is so not viable. One thing bad when you get sick alone here. AND I have to get my own breakie and lunch. McD comfort food?

Since I have been complaining about him (always) on my blog (and he reads them too!), I've decided to say something good about him.

Mr Grumpy calls me Mrs Grumpy (which is true in a way cos when he is grumpy I am too).

And when I was grumpy the other day, he got me a new pair of earrings which are good for my super duper sensitive skin (which my ex colleague calls it, "rich skin" cos it cant take anything other than white gold, stupid ex colleague).

/me is happy with new earring

Out went the cutesy "I look so good" boring A-Line and pleated skirts




In came in the "I look hot" pencil skirts.

So being the fashion victim/follower/whatevar, I bought one. In XS. Seriously, It makes you walk and RUN (I am not kidding) like a LADY. It forces you to make smaller quicker paced steps (in order to be in pace with the rush hour crowd), that makes your heels go tikatakatikatiata. Buying one in XS is not good. It can hardly make you lift your leg to climb up the steps. I had to hitch my skirt up (like a lady again) JUST TO CLIMB THE BLARDY STEPS. But I like how it elongates my leg (PLUSS!). The super tightness really settled in when I sat down (cue for stomach fats to bulge out). UGH

Note to self: Pencil skirts are HAWT. Must buy one size bigger and before buy, test them while walking and sitting down.

p/s: I admit I stole the title from http://ellieng.blogspot.com. tee hee hee

If you want to know, I dont get PMS a day before my menstruation.

I get it TWO weeks before.

If you are wondering, yes, for the whole two weeks my mood will be upside down, irritable, fussy and horrible.

Like today for instance, I blew up because he replaced my photo with his family photo to which he whimpered "you occupied all three photo frames... I dont even have one..." and another one, I blew because I had to liaise with the auditor for HIS client because he didnt call the auditor back because he was very busy. To which he whimpered again "Sorr..rr..yy". And another... but you dont have to know.. simply because I am in a bad mood.

And I cant even make it up to him in a nice manner because all I did was send him an email:

"Hey, I know you are busy, so I am going back now to pack food. I dont care what food I will pack but you better make sure you like it. Anyway you eat most rubbish so I wont worry. Ok see you home then"

Something to that effect. But that part "Anyway, you eat most rubbish..." is true

Also, if you count, an average menstrual cycle is 1 week.

And yes, if a month is only 4 weeks, that leaves only 1 week left for me to be jolly good, happy and most importantly, sane.

Now, isnt this revelation making you thanking your lucky stars that you are NOT in Mr Grumpy's shoes right now?

Mr Grumpy is not back yet.. thats it... he's gonna get it....

Mr Grumpy is always grumpy. Hence the name - grumpy. If he could be Mr Stinky, he would but then I would kick him out of the house and let him sleep with the mozzies (Just kidding baby, you know you are not stinkyyyy). Besides, calling him Mr Stinky is more mean than ever.

Anyway, why do I call him Mr Grumpy? Because, whenever I want to shop, he gets grumpy. Whenever I want to walk, he gets grumpy. Whenever I want to .... u get the idea.

Being Asian, Mr Grumpy is afraid to offend. Hence is never decisive and never wants to commit on a decision without checking with me first. While all this is sweet, it can be abit overbearing. Like today...

"What do you want to eat?"
"I dont know.... Lets eat Swensens today"
"Huh? Really? How about Secret Recipie? Its the only thing we havent eaten here"

Digression: Secret recipie here is dollar for dollar. Not worth to eat it here.

*Hmm.. nmm.... pauses and looks at other restaurants.. reluctant to eat Secret Recipie*

"Make up your mind"
"What do you want to eat leh? Faster la I am hungry"
"Then u decide la"
"Faster la"
"OI..."
"Secret Recipie la.. no need to queue"
.
.
.
.
"Do you want cake?"
"Hmm.. can also, what cake you want? I like the ones with the cookies at the bottom"
"Then you go choose la"
"You think?"
"GO. AND. CHOOSE. YOUR. CAKE"
"If you dont like how?"
*yeesh*
"At least you like it you will eat it right?"
"But I dont know which is nice"
*ARGH Kill.Me*
"If you dont try you wont know"

Can you even feel my frustration?

And Mr Grumpy didnt even like the food in Secret Recipie. AFTER.HE.ATE. Ngngngnngngngngng

Ugh.. burnt a hole in my pocket this weekend.

Every weekend, Mr Grumpy and I will go for brunch, wherever suits our fancy, not too expensive. So yesterday, we settled for Coffee Bean's all day breakfast. Not too bad considering its almost the same price as McDonalds (yea the McD's here is dollar for dollar). ^_^


Piping hot tea and coffee

Foodie!


Since, weekend is the only time I ever get time to see the daylight (no, REALLY) I have to get my dress by either Saturday or Sunday (as next week will be back to attend wedding dinner). I didnt really see something I liked around my area (we ended up walking for about.... 3 hours), so I managed to convince Mr Grumpy to go to City Hall with me. At City Hall, 1 shop, 3 dresses and half an hour later:

I got me a pretty tube dress.


I can be very decided once I set my eyes on something pretty. So its useless to make me walk everywhere else to find. Thats why I snapped it up so fast. I know if in a weeks time, I will still buy the same dress.

Its fairly priced for that material (European fabric, so it says) and design (pouffy skirt and the design on the dress is velvety feel...3D effect). Comparing to a boring Zara dress (plain and lacy). It set me back about $159. I managed to convince Mr Grumpy that this dress will be dual purpose, 1. wedding dinner; and 2. annual dinner (coming up!). Heheheheheh... whether in the end I will wear this dress again to the annual dinner.. .is another matter.. huahuahua!

Sunday came, and we decided hawker fare for brunch. Mr Grumpy had to go to work to settle some stuff, and let me be, all by my lonesome to shop. The damage:


Zara: Matching skirt and jacket. Boring. Not worth talking about cos its for work
Allure: My dress above
Pazzionz: Shoes
BYSI: a cute top, which I painstakingly have to source for a matching skirt... but I found it in Zara (the matching one with the jacket.. so its dual purpose again! smartie me!)

Some earrings from (Six) http://www.click-six.com. They were having sale, so I got them for $3 each.

All I'm lacking is a bag to complete the set. But I have spotted one in Guess... which will be bought............ soon! Still cant decide from the DKNY one (clutch). Hmmmmmm..
