Top 3 pet peeves ...

Oh boy! The 200th post is sadly another ranting of mine. However, I desperately need to get these lingering thoughts out of my mind because it's FRUSTRATING AND ANNOYING me!!!!!

1. Guys who are NOT gentlemens .. F***ing pathetic souls! I pity them! 

A perfect example of one of the many incidents by this un-gentlemenly so-called 'friend', leaving your poor friend waiting after confirming to meet for a drink FOR AN HOUR PLUS (@@#$$%^^ ASSHOLE!!!!) without informing any delays or whatsoever as if the person is compelled to wait for the A-hole. Bastard (Do excuse my language!!).  And when out with this ungentlemenly so-called 'friend', he'll be constantly on the phone or texting all the time. Wtf!! Any respect for others? No!! Just so you know, he's desperate for an other half but that's not an effing excuse to ignore or treat your friends this way. Conclusion, this is what I consider as 'toxic' friends.

2. Dramatic FAKE people!!!!

Manipulative, DRAMA! DRAMA! DRAMA!, and more dramas - the precise word to describe these annoying homo sapiens. Pathetic souls!!!! I pity them too!! They can be nominated for the Oscars or whatever there is available 'coz they are effing FAKE!!! And LIARS!!!

3. Friends who are NOT sincere!!!!

You are always there to listen to their complaints, rantings etc.. BUT when the tables are turned, they ARE NEVER there for you. Or, those effing people that put you down just to make themselves feel superior. Wtf!! More pathetic souls!! Guess what? I've officially ran out of pity or empathy!

I believe the true meaning of friendship should always be a give and take in life but when 'some' goes across the limit, it is officially a no no. Which in other words means, that pathetic soul does not appreciate or cherish the friendship you have given or showered upon them and these are definitely considered 'toxic'!!! 

Hence, these incidents and pathetic souls have ignited my urge to filter out these 'toxic' people from my life in order to achieve a more positive, PEACEFUL and balanced mindset plus life. I've had enough share of dramas, negative-ness and shitty people, not forgetting the stress from work, so with all these 'toxic' around, it's definitely not helping at all. Btw, not dissing anyone in particular but enough is enough!!

Anyhow, as I mentioned earlier, this is just a rant that have been pent up all these while... 

*sigh*

A season of celebrations ...

I celebrate my 200th 199th post with a toast to the celebrative season to the recent Birthday babies (of Oct, Nov and Dec) and since Christmas and New Year is just around the corner. The past few months has just been hectic with weekends after weekends of birthday celebrations, dinners and as usual, work! Hence, the absence from the blogging sphere! 

Anyways, last weekend was spent at Hajime, an authentic Japanese restaurant and by far, one of best Japanese restaurants in town in conjunction of M's birthday (an old fren of mine). 

It was certainly worth the visit, food was fantastic and the highlight of the night would definitely be the Fugu (pufferfish) sashimi - a seasonal dish. Thanks to the waiter's recommendation since it was Fugu season currently, it was certainly all nods for the Fugu sashimi.

Fugu can be lethally poisonous due to its tetrodotoxin, therefore has to be carefully prepared to remove toxic parts and to avoid contaminating the meat.^[1] The restaurant preparation of fugu is strictly controlled by the law in Japan and several other countries, and only chefs who have qualified through rigorous training are allowed to deal with the fish.^[1][2] However, the domestic preparation occasionally leads to accidental death.^[2] Fugu is served as sashimi andchirinabe.^[2] Some consider the liver the tastiest part but it is also the most poisonous, and serving the fugu liver in restaurants was banned in Japan in 1984.Fugu has become one of the most celebrated and notorious dishes in Japanese cuisine.

* The exotic dish*

A dish or shall I say, an experience of a lifetime that one must try at least once despite the damage to the pocket. It has the soft chewy texture to it and the stuffs in the centre (centre of the pic) was jelly-like. Everyone was still alive at the end of the meal, so kudos to the chef for the good preparation skills. 

Excuse me for the absence of food porn! My camera needs to be admitted to Sony hospital but it's been months and I still have not found the time to do so. Boo!!! I guess it's time for a new camera .. *lol* .. have my eyes on the Canon S90 or the G12.

Btw, there was a surprise awaiting this morning at the workplace. Guess what? Christmas pressies from the Company - Crabtree and Evelyn's La Source set and Jusco vouchers worth RM90 for everyone. Hooray~

The eyes are giving up on me now.. Time to crash. Nite to all .. ZZZzzzzzz

An urge to rant ...

Recently, I've been feeling a wee bit very weak (emotionally). Boredom is always looming around and haunting me. Argghh!!!! Go away please!! I hate this feeling. Hmm.. all of a sudden, I am perpetually out of words. A bit of writers block! Ewww ...

Oh well! Guess it's off to bed now since my mind is pretty blank at the moment. Will try to write more soon. Need to vent out those sickly feelings stuck inside my mind. Hate it! Hate it!

Sigh! Goodnite .. *still whining* .. 

Helloo again...

Today marks the 4th month of me being back in the workforce. Boy! Time flies, it feels like it was just yesterday that I was preparing for my first day of employment. Story cut short, work has been hectic with lotsa travelling and catching up involved (plus loads of dramas). Yes! Sad to say, dramas again .. A fact that i've come to admit is unavoidable when working for a multinational company. Despite that, I've got to know a number of colleagues that belong to the 'neutral' side. Some can be pretty fun and crazy. Cool, funny peeps! So, things are actually going pretty well (after some scanning, and filtering through the masks of certain drama 'kings' and 'queens'). 

Been feeling a tad bit demotivated   emotionally down lately, especially the past few days. Probably due to the stress and dramas, I guess. Thus, I've resorted to finishing the novel by Cecilia Ahern called A Place Called Here. Pretty inspiring read .. I've always loved Cecilia Ahern's collection, particularly after her No.1 Bestseller - P/S: I Love You! Here's an insightful paragraph to share:-

" We all get lost once in a while, sometimes by choice, sometimes due to forces beyond our control. When we learn what it is our soul needs to learn, the path presents itself. "
