I AM ALIVE
Jul/090
Regular posting will resume once I can finish off the writing I promised Regina for the Pixel Project, the magazine articles I owe Max and Geri (who are going to kill me it’s more than three months overdue ahahahahaha) and the most important of all, work.
OK BACK TO WORK!
For random silly things that don’t make my blog cause really I need some place to laugh, please drop by my Twitter.

Being petty and mean
Jun/090
Wow. 10 minutes after she left the room, my mom had to come back and give me a lecture about how messy it is. She can’t quite understand how she, a neat freak, ended up having two children who really don’t care what condition their room is as long as they can navigate from point A to point B without poking their eyes or tripping over things.
One of the reasons I keep my room messy is so that my Mom cannot find my things. It’s a leftover relic from days when I’m pretty sure she started going through my stuff as a teenager. I think all mothers do that, whether they want to admit it or not. It would certainly explain some of the things I know my mom wouldn’t have own otherwise. It’s much harder to replicate a messy room when you know where everything is, than it would be to replicate a clean room. Trust me, I’ve been there.
In a weird, twisted way, this is my revenge on her. I don’t feel like I have control over my life with her around. Or even with my father. I understand they worry, but seriously, move on already, won’t you? You’ve already done enough damage by destroying TWO relationships. I suppose if I ask my mom to arrange my marriage, she’ll be all over herself.
And in case you’re wondering, opening up to her is NOT an option. She wants to hear what she wants to hear, and she really refuses to even try coming from my point of view. Talking to her is often an exercise in futility about my friends. I know she’s proud of me, but at the same time she’s also ashamed. She expects me to be something I don’t want to be.
The sad thing is, I understand where she comes from. She has no real friends to speak of, and her behaviour is highly regulated by what she thinks my dad will or will not approve. She’s disappointed by the choices she’s made in life and how they’ve turned out; at 25, I’m still living in the house instead of being happily married to someone and bearing grandchildren for her. At 22, my brother is still leeching off them, and planning to get married to a Sabah girl my parents have never met.
At the end of the day, I think the issue is trust. I cannot trust my mother not to hurt me again, and she cannot trust her daughter to follow her.

TTL: Chris Your leather jacket makes you look fat. *points to tummy*
Chris: It’s ok, I’m having Zac Efron’s baby.
Edit: Scroll down for more laughs!
Refer to this poster:

The Copywriter’s Chronicles would like to formally induct TTL as the newest member of the Gutter Order! She contributed this piece:
Me: *To Dria* If you can generate your own static, then you should touch CC and see how he jumps.
CC: Wah, don’t teach people bad things la. *Note: CC is a boy.
Me: True what, last week he touched me, and we both heard the BZZT! He got shocked!
TTL: Geminianeyes… touched you sounds very wrong la.
Me: *Headdesks*
CC: Ya la, make me no value already (aka no more romance value)
Me: … *adds this to the copywriter chronicles*
Additional:
Grayfox’s remark on TTL joining: The Force is strong in her.

Geeky weekend failed

The only thing I did was my final exam studying at the library, allowing my brother to play too much with my registry and eating with the family.
Ah well. There’s always next week.
