What A Beginning !!

It is a beautiful morning out there . Its a great great day .


I love the sun to help dry my laundry ....a free service from mother nature . I used the sun's rays too to give my cushions and pillows a whiff of freshness by exposing them for hours in the sun .Yunno what I mean .......sometimes pillows and cushions give a kind of musky smell when used for long . Some people just replaced them and get themselves new ones . As for me its not that easy to detach myself from my pillows as new ones need time to acclimatise.


So just when I am so full of energy this morning and had planned to do most of the laundry ( yesterday's weather was bad ) my washing machine broke down . BOO HOO !! A broken down washing machine is a broken me ; that I can tell you . Anyway had called the technician and hopes he gets here fast .


Whoever invented the washing machine ....i just want to say ......Bless you !!

What ? Insane ?

You heard me ......I am going insane ......soon .


Life for the past five days was horrendous . I dread evenings . At six pm , I found myself closing my sliding doors and pulled the curtains . The front door would be closed too . Things that are not the norm of this house .


My house has and is always wide opened ...by that I meant ....doors both front and back are opened ....windows too and curtains are tied back ; all these to let in the fresh air into my house . I am not one who survived on stagnant air . Alas ! All these will come to an end if the present situation persists .


Hey ...I am one who is not that prejudice kind of person . I accept people whoever they may be ..regardless of race and religion . I have always believed in respecting other peoples religion and tries to tolerate and understand their believes ......and I do expect them to do that to my believes too .


However it can't be denied that at times your tolerance level is being tested and when it reached that certain limit ......you kinda feel like you want to storm up to that guy and give him a piece of your mind .


You see ........my new neighbor just moved in . Being Hindus they have their own rituals that goes along with it . Bells would be rung .....that's fine for me .Then they would burnt their incense which was so far fine with me . Nothing strange as I do have some other Hindu neighbors . The incense they burnt so far is tolerable .The smell would linger in the air for the most 10 minutes or so and would soon go away .


But its not so with this newbie on the block . Must he made his presence felt by burning an incense that pollutes my environment ? Can't he use an incense with a more subtle kind of smell ? Hey ........don't get me wrong ........he can burnt any number of incense if he wants too........but please lah ......try to ensre the smell stays within your territory and your environment . Ensure that the atrocious smell that make me puked and gave me a terrible headache stayed within your compound and house too . Do you have to burnt that particular atrocious and bad mother of all smells incense outside your house too ? Must you put that incense at the corner of your backyard which happens to be the corner of my wall too ? Of course the smell enters my kitchen ..you ....you........senseless out of this planet neighbor ? ( Pardon the expression ...I'm insane , remember ? ) . Must you burnt it for the whole evening and whole night ? Goshhhhhhhhhhhh.......how insensitive and brainless of you .


Ok ......I hope our paths will cross soon .....and I will tell you how I feel .....I will tell you I am going insane over your incense !!


I hope you will cooperate ......well if you don't .......I will join in in this incense burning thing ......I will not burn what you used . I have my own concoction too....and if my memory proves me right .....you will be coughing away and sneezing non stop over this recipe of mine ......dry skins of red onions and garlic ...and dry red chillies with its seeds .


Old folks said .....this heart burning smell can drive away the hantu pelisit too .


I hope you will not be my neighbor from hell ..............

What's Up ?

I know ..I know ...I have done it again .....not that I have been thattttttttttttt.......busy and working round the clock .Its one of those days when you just find it hard to put words onto paper......oops !!


I don't know how many readers there are who dropped by and read my blogs ....whatever it is .......thank you for the time . Really appreciate it .


Here's for you :D




Yes , how time flies ..its July now . Back to the days when I was a career woman , June and July would be the month to assess the progress and performance of the school .......the mid year review .


Its been a while since I last used these words . The budget would be scrutinized ...the teachers performance and the children' s capabilities were assessed .....questions I would ask myself would be ........... is the school heading in the direction we had planned earlier on ?


Yes , at times I missed the working environment , the stress and tensions ....the good friends and colleagues you met and were able to work with . Of course you do happened to come across some who were just sour grapes .......at times there would be head on collisions with colleagues ...one of those times when you don't see eye to eye .......and the ex- communication and the cold shoulder they would give you . Those were the days ........ I felt the heart ache when faced with these problems but one persevered and pushed on . Along the way ..I discovered myself ........tested my limits and the tolerance level that I allowed myself to have . Yes ....some people are heartless and cold and would not hesitate to stab you in the back . Working life is no sweet roses .



However it was through this working episodes of my life that my life is enriched .....the tremendous experience I garnered , the trust that your boss gave you ( and they know you can deliver ) and their belief in you ......that matters a lot . Yes , there are some good people there who just want to get their work done as what was trusted to them . Decisions had to be made .......whatever ......there would be unhappy faces as your actions would be misconstrued . At times I would take the time to explain and at times I would not be bothered and hope that the decisions I made served the purpose and it had worked and the results showed . Sometimes ....like the song goes ...you say it best when you say nothing at all .


To my friends who had touched my life ...........thank you once again .....
