Income Tax 2005

Today is the last day. In fact, it's already way past 10pm and I bet they've already close shop. Thanx to Lynn who reminded me. Otherwise I would've completely forgotten about it. :P

It just amazes me that, people who have worked longer than me didn't know that they have to do their taxes. No number? Call up and ask lah. No form? Go and collect!


"Need to do ah?...."


Some even claimed that they are not taxable. So, no need to submit. Hello! The reason you need to submit is to prove that you are not taxable! Some people....

That's not all. Said people who have worked longer than me has never done before! Great scott!! Need me to teach somemore!!! ORO~ @_@. Ok, one can argue that, since last year, it's done differently. But when asked "how was it before?". Their answer's:"Err... dunno."


WTF?!! People are taking your money away from you. Why are you not concerned?!


Last year I did not have to pay anything, since, half of the whole year's salary is different. But this year, ahhh have to pay... around RM 50 plus. Did the receipts from buying magazines help? 95% of them turned into a lil piece of white paper!!! ARGH! Need to find a better way to keep them. Goodness...

Anyway, that's it for now. Until next year's lah.


So what am I going to use on those lil-pieces-of-paper-that-are-formerly-receipts? Shinigami maybe?

3 Hair Style

TT is a genius.

Ever since it's cut, I managed to get three different hair style. All spiky though.

Not all has visual aids. Maybe when I have the time and some extra hair gel to waste,I would play around with it and take pics.

Style 1, the original TT's "vision" made me felt a bit beng-ish. I dunno, maybe she cut some corners on the gel when she styled it for me?

Style 2 just plains intimidate people. An attention grabber.

Style 3 is made of pure AWESOME ;P. Well, when you have someone who kept praising it as "leng jai tao (canto)" continuously proves that it is made of AWESOME and WIN. Any more I would've thought she would want to coughdryhumpmecough right there, right then. ;P

The praises definitely got me in the mood. So, took some pics and these are what I thought as the coughhottercough ones:











Unfortunately, not enough brightness = bad pics.

Besides being eye candy, I need to use the callendar more productively, reminding myself to do important stuff like.... oh, income tax.

Now It Hits Me

That I lost a lunch mate. :(


Oi, don't think too negatively lah. No one died or anything.

My Most Expensive Hair Cut Ever

I must be out of my mind.

Went to get my hair cut today. It's already damn long and thick. When they saw me at the saloon they were quite shock.

Thought it would be quite crowded since it's a saturday, but it wasn't. Weird. but everyone is occupied with a customer.

TT finished first and she asked me to go and have a seat, "Leng jai, come!". Bridgette's still occupied. Asked her if it's ok and she asked me to go ahead and let TT cut. She's gonna take a while.

While cutting my hair, TT kept going on about how may hair is so long and thick. Well, my hair grows quite fast and it's been one month, what do you expect? After awhile she said she noticed my scalp's quite bad, got dandruff and has more grey hair... aiyo, tell me something that I dunno.

After the hair cutting, she asked if I would like to try the scalp treatment, "very cheap only blablabla...". I asked how much, "RM 60 only together with your hair cut" she answered. Gah!

But then I thought, why not. I always had dandruff problems ever since I came back from UK. I dunno, maybe it was the 180 degress climate change that causes it. That and lack of sleep, poor diet and stress of course. TT say one. She explained to me on the causes.

"Try to relax and enjoy it lah, massaging your scalp is suppose to be relaxing mah!" she said. I replied, "I'm TRYING!".

How do I enjoy scalp massaging?

I dunno LOL

To me, washing someone's hair is a very personal and sensual thing to do. How could I enjoy it when it's done by someone who I hardly know? Don't get me wrong, it's good, but it felt wrong and I got tense up.

She also asked me if I wanted to buy the shampoo and the toner. So, no need every month come and do treatment. Besides, once a month do treatment could only maintain it. It wouldn't solve it. Both the shampoo and the toner are from Shiseido. Costs Rm 166. Holy crap! Told her I"ll think about it first.

A friend who's a hair stylist in training said that I don't really have to to treatment (unless it's at her saloon). She said all I needed is "Sleep earlier, eat less oily food and use specially for dandruff shampoo.

I dunno, I've tried lots of shampoo and it didn't work. Sleep earlier? I would wake up in the middle of the night and get interrupted sleep, next day can't concentrate. Oily food? Hahah!

What do you all think? I don't want to turn bald.


Oh and my new hair? One side long and other places short. LOL. Before cutting, she said she wants to try something new for me and I agreed to it. "As long as it's different from now!", me and my big fat mouth. I'm kinda undecided whether I liked it, or not. Let's see if I can do anything with it with gel tomorrow.

Was looking forward to this issue and it did not disappoint at all!







Oh yah, the articles were pretty interesting too.

Does Being Angry Gives Us The Right To Say Things We don't Mean?

Does it?

I've had it with people who said "Aiya, sorry lah.. I was very angry just now. I didn't mean what I said just now" and all that crap.

If you've never meant it at all, why did you have to say it? Obviously it did meant something.

Why can't we be more careful of what we say? So that we would hurt each other less? Think about it.

Grace

Last week, forgot when. I was walking in Mid Valley Mega Mall; happily licking away that RM 1 ice cream that I bought from Jusco and this girl just suddenly stopped right in front of me and said "Hey!"

Who? "Hey, Grace ah!". I was still dumb founded, couldn't recognise the face. "Sorry, but do I know you from somewhere?", I answered. "I was in *somethingsomethingcannotremember* Design lah!". "Errrr..."

"Maybe too long we haven't seen each other...", she continued. "Errrr.. heh heh... ^__^' ", me still errr-ing away and smiling. "Really cannot remember ah?", she's still at it. "Maybe I recognised the wrong person. You look very familiar. Sorry for wasting your time", she appologised. "Ah, Hahaha... it's ok.", what's there to be sorry about anyway?

I really don't think I knew her. Not many people I've met that carries the name: Grace. Okay, there was only one, way back in high school. But she definitely doesn't look like her. But people do change. Nah, don't think it's her.

If You Do Not Have A Dream/Goal In Life...

why not make others' yours?

For instance, bringing the world happiness by doing laundry?

Thank you for reminding me, Keitaro-san.

Looks like what was told in my "kao chim" is coming true.

Kawa ah kawa, have to be more careful lo!

She's Still Here!

So it wasn't just a figment of my imagination....

Cheng Beng 2006

Yeap, it's that time again.

Went back to Tanjung Tualang for this year's Cheng Beng on Saturday. Was busy burning CDs for the trip on Thursday and Friday. Brought:

- Gundam Seed Destiny Opening and Closing songs collection
- Asian Kung Fu Generation's Kunkei 5 M *ahem* version
- Collection of Tokusatsu and anime songs A
- Collection of Anime songs B
- Kamen Rider Hibiki OST
- PS2 Shinobi game OST

Manage to listen to most of them except KR Hibiki and PS2 Shinobi game OST. So, kinda wasted time burning them, but haiya... sure it will eventually has it's usefullness one day.

Surprisingly, this year I was looking forward to this trip. Last year was a bit reluctant. Previously, while still schooling, usually that would be exams and assignment as ammo for excuses to not go for Cheng Beng. When graduated, because of work schedule, more ammo for excuses.

So, it's the same old routine. Woke up early that morning. Well, actually parents woke up early at around 6 and I woke up at 6:30am :P.



Reached there, straight went to the grave and cleaned it up. Whole day's weather's just.. cloudy. Only some parts of the trip that it rained. No relatives this time... hmmm...



The horizon again, my favourite view from the cemetery:



Yes, yes, it's a different pic than in last year's post.


Some sort of plant grew out of the grave.

After finishing what we're suppose to do here, we went to visit our Grand Uncle.



He looked better! Apparently my dad's method of treating his knee and back aches worked: vinegar and squashed ginger bandaged on the affected areas!

Went out to had lunch with him. From what we heard from him, he said that the other relatives had planned to do cheng beng tomorrow (Sunday). No wonder lah. Guess don't get to see the white-sheet-of-a-paper cousin this time.

After lunch, dropped him at the place where we would have desert later and we went to the temple to pray. Had my fortune told here and most of what it was told came true. So thought, this time would like to try again.

Nope, not palm reading, face reading or foot reading. It's one of those where you would kneel, shake a bunch of "sticks" from the cylinder until one of it drops out type. "Kao chim" in Cantonese or "kiu chiam" in Hokkien. Anyway, got a bad one for this year. Not telling. At least there are ways to prevent it.

So after praying and burned some joss sticks, we went to meet up with the Grand Uncle. Yeap, had the Wan Tao Long jelly drinked again. Annd after desert, dropped him back home and we went on our way back.

Heard Dad said that TT actually just lived a few rows away from Grand Uncle's house! No, not going to dropby and have a vist. Apparently she had came back last week and she won't be returning to Tanjung Tualang this week.


HOLY COWS!


The striker battles it out with the goal keeper.... who will win?

Came back. So tired. Slept the rest of the day and night. Couldn't get proper sleep while in the car.

What the ffff is with this crap that keeps pushing my side bar down?!?! >|

That Walkman Mobile Phone That I Wanted,

S bought it!

Even though she's on leave, she dropped by at the office to have lunch with me.So sweet of her. Even though she will be going to Bangkok for her honeymoon later in the evening.

Went to Secret Recepie for lunch and that's when she showed it to me. Sigh, after turning the screen on, I quickly returned it to her.

"Don't you want to see what function it has?", she asked. "Maybe later... afterwards not willing to give it back to you."
