well...if i had my way, i'd be back in tampines RIGHT NOW
stuffing my face with a whopper or old chang kee anything or satay from east coast or laksa or fishball noodles or alotta other things from banquet or my mom's cooking or hope against hope,
nenek midah's nasi briyani dam. then sal2 & i will spend the next few days/nights at spize for lamb chops and eatzy for chilli mussels (and lamb chops) and to many beautiful places with their many beautiful foods on offer. the burgers may be better at hungry jacks, but they are not halal. and
dun even get me started on the desserts. alas, i'm not eating anything but my own cooking right now becos
I'M NOT FLYING...yet. powers that be who determine my visa status have decided that i shall wait. so wait, i shall (very the yoda i noe. stars wars was showing over the weekend hehe)
but i shall not be the typical chengeng girl that i am and go cry my eyeballs out, altho i did bawl sporadically for a month after mama left me in perth hehe paisei...tu jer pandai...
SO i shall not cry. and i shall stop getting irritated, cos i only end up venting it out on sal2. it is not fair, maybe. he deserves a raise, probably. but i maintain it's not my fault;
he's usually the one in the line of fire.anyway, i decided that i shall be a man and step up to the challenge.
keep my chin up. continued abt my business todae pretending that i wasn't supposed to get on that damn plane at 13:45, that i didn't noe didy was gonna surprise me at the airport, that i wasn't gonna miss all that food, and the hugs, and the kisses, and the relieved crying (got such thing ker...?). at least i finally finished the accounting. i got lunch/dinner done. laundry has been stowed. watched some tv. fixed up the otha blog for sal2. installed a software and uploaded stuff using the software for sal2. spent time with my roses. the tomato's lookin lovely so how can i complain. look at it *sigh* 
yesterdae was even more fruitful. so packed that i had lunch at 21:00 abouts. started with a maggot.
small fluffy plump lil thing the size of a grain of rice. yep, the type that asy-asy-b'gash loves with her soursop drinks. saw it wriggling right in front of my room door. my intention was just to put away our stuff, vacuum the bedroom and finish off by washing the toilet. but once i saw our lil traveller, i washed all the linen i could get my hands on including the ones in the guest room and the sofa cover (dry-cleaning only. yeah right. tak pape pun...). the alas in the kitchen had to go (it's now soaking in the laundry room sink. dun see why we nid it in the 1st place). and i ended up vacuuming the whole house. i mean the
whole house including behind the dryer. cept for the brother's room. respecting people's privacy. but i heard his room got attacked by flies before *sigh* wish i could get my hands on that one...
thank god i made mee rebus the nite before. takyah masak yay!!! concentrated fully on the tasks at hand. my dae started at 09:45 for sal2's brekkie and ended just after 02:00 with sal2's tapao lunch (for werk the nx day). managed to cancel our flights in between (yes i pulled the trigger myself),
broke the ugly news to my parents and did afew other admin stuff. maggot count yesterdae: 7 in assorted places. the rest, i just closed my eyes and sucked it up. literally.
found one todae in the kitchen. this slenge girl forgot i haven't cooked rice in two days, so manalah datang nyer this lil grain on the floor? needless to say, i picked it up with my bare fingers.
IT CRAWLED ON MY HAND!!! tak sah lah kalau tak pekik kan. luckily i was home alone... so count for todae: 1 and hoping none crawls into my ear while i sleep.damage control: closed all windows and sprayed a whole can of baygon (the largest size on the shelves for AUD6.99 on offer) into every crevice i can see. now all that's left is to pray that it bites and they all meet the Maker before i do. animals can be cute, but flies in ozzie? just stupidly irritating.
house is clean, food's on the stove, everything else i set out to do, done. i hear his car in the driveway...
ps. sorry baby girl u had to find out thru someone else. was only confirmed yesterday...
