    When I was in NY, I saw for the first time two men kissing.

    Although I have no problems with that, it’s ironic that NY was my first experience when supposedly 70% of Emerson’s male student body is gay =.=”

    good luck with midterms! I understand your paper problems :( i’m rushing mine now too!

  • 4. nyrac  |  February 17th, 2009 at 2:39 am

    i was at college today and one of my friends punctured her tyre in the parking lot.

    girl 1: MAYBE, next time it will be YOUR TURN!
    girl 2 (spooked because she is also not a confident driver): eh don’t curse me
    me: yeah if you get a punctured tyre next time you can blame her
    girl 2: i will follow her to her house
    me: and kill all her pets, you can cut their heads off and-
    girl 2: i take all your pets and tie them up and make into my spare tyre

    HAHAHAHA VERY HAPPY TREE FRIENDS

    I feel that a guy’s emotions can oscillate in just split seconds, cause they won’t treat you nicely after knowing that the hope of going after you is slim :( maybe is just the guys that i meet.

    Good luck in your Midterm! I’m having mine too!

  • 9. Yellow corn  |  February 17th, 2009 at 4:42 am

    Elaine, I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve experienced it myself a couple of times too. Its like since there’s no Return on Investment, then there’s no point in being friends.

    Who say’s gals are materialistic? I think guys are even more materialistic in that sense.

    “With all the time & gifts spent on you, I must have something back too.” This kind of mentality just pisses me off….

    What’s your opinion on this, PinkPau?

    My blog has a lot of stories.

    Today’s theme: Sadness
    Characters: Mom, 2 girls, Dad, Japanese German flatmate
    Plot: Mom and dad will leave melbourne to kl. Daughters sobbing their guts out. The end

    Moral of the story: Don’t send off your parents because it will be so sad and don’t book the cab too early.

    Oh wait, why am I telling you this when my whole blog, is a story itself.

    1. Somebody that I know who’s getting married soon, weird part is everything is paid by her parents. EVERYTHING include her wedding gowns.I think it’s a selfish act. What you think? No they are not Indians, and both are grownups.

    2. Somebody told me that having a gf is wayyyy cheaper than hoo. Cheapest hoo cost 50 bucks per session, and gf cost *he calculated* 9 bucks. -__- no he never mentioned anythg abt love.

    3. My friend said: ” whatup with all the guys? They are all horney bastards!” I told her: ” well if he’s not, you got a big problem.”

  • 18. kreazi  |  February 17th, 2009 at 8:10 am

    Su Ann, all the best in your exam, then quickly bounce back here okay, miss reading your posts so badly :)))

    A story to make you laugh and keep you sane during the exam period :-

    After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver’s license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.

    The woman said, ‘Unbutton your shirt’. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, ‘That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me’ and she processed my Social Security application.

    When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.

    She said, ‘You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too.’

    And then the fight started…

  • 19. melssa  |  February 17th, 2009 at 8:59 am

    I’m turning 18 in 2 days – my family calls it entering adulthood, my favourite ex-boyfriend calls it finally legal.

    I have trials in 2 weeks.

    and a minimalistic bed to contradict my desk, the very picture of perfect entropy.

    and .. not much of a story at the moment.

    study hardy, pinkpauy! :)

  • 20. kiyana  |  February 17th, 2009 at 9:37 am

    I don’t have a story but… I have a funny lame riddle for you and the readers..xD

    When E.T left, how many letters are left in the alphabet?

  • 21. k0k  |  February 17th, 2009 at 9:58 am

    about those guys that stop giving attention to the girls they are wooing after realising that their chances aren’t good;

    Though I don’t think what they do is right, I can understand the psyche behind it. Any relationship involves a degree of reciprocation (or affirmation, if you like) and failing to get an intended response, it IS kind of pointless to continue. Take animals, most animals, for example. The males strut their stuff, puff up their feathers, flash their colours and flex their muscles – and the females get to pick which they want to mate with. A guy showing you his romantic, giving, tender side is something like that. It says “This is what you get if you sleep with me”.

    Because we are higher animals, we developed values such as unconditional love and whatnot. I admire such high-minded ideals and aspire to them – but I can understand that they aren’t practical for those wanting love more than they want to give love.

  • 22. k0k  |  February 17th, 2009 at 10:16 am

    Oh and,

    Baby Ducks say “Quack quack”
    Baby Cows say “Moo moo”
    Baby Horses say “Whinny whinny”
    Baby Pigs say “Oink oink”
    Baby Sheeps say “…”

    What’s the answer to this riddle (or rebus)?

    P.S. Is the answer to kiyana’s (comment 20) riddle, None? ET didn’t leave with any of our letters. I know because I counted.

  • 23. elaine  |  February 17th, 2009 at 10:46 am

    the answer to kiyana’s riddle is 21. because E.T left with the U.F.O.

  • 24. caffy  |  February 17th, 2009 at 11:00 am

    Mmm, i don’t want to get into depressing topic so here goes.

    I enrolled myself into a college recently and commute daily from Klang to KL. I go with a group of friends by train. One day, while going back from KL to Klang, we were all standing as usual (rush hour), and my friend pointed to a bag of a guy standing near me. It has an Elmo on it. Now I’m the biggest fan of Elmo (because he’s so cute! Isn’t he cute?) and just had a conversation with them before boarding the train about Elmo. I forgot how I reacted but I reacted somehow (probably went “Elmo!!!!! I love elmo. Elmo elmo elmo elmo! So cute lah.” or something like that) and the man noticed. At that time we were reaching a stop and while smiling like hell (he wasn’t just smiling, he looks like he’s refraining from LoL-ing), he walked out of the train, and presumably started laughing like nobody’s business when he left.
    We all had a laugh about it and thought nothing more about it.
    The next day, we bumped into that guy in the afternoon at kl sentral again, across the road. My friend spotted him and apparently he was with a friend and pointed at me, with this big grin on his face.
    Probably telling his friend how big a lunatic I am.

    I have lots of stories, but I don’t really know why I decided to type this out.This just appeared on the top of my mind when I searched for anything to tell, even though it’s so insignificant.

    Good luck for your final! =p

  • 25. kennysia  |  February 17th, 2009 at 12:11 pm

    once upon a time, there was a girl…

  • 26. bs  |  February 17th, 2009 at 12:58 pm

    … who bought a carton of milk…

  • 27. unicorn  |  February 17th, 2009 at 1:24 pm

    my bf left 2 weeks ago. now i am in a LDR, how sad. but when he left, he asked me to marry him….we’re just 21! HAHA! i just bid him farewell.
    now everywhere he goes, he finds me a dress, because i love clothes and he knows it keeps me happy. gives me a debit card so he can transfer funds, so i can keep buying.
    he bought me chocolates with solid cocoa because i love dark chocs. =))
    i miss him dearly. this feeling sucks.

  • 28. unicorn  |  February 17th, 2009 at 1:26 pm

    and on valentines, we had dinner on webcam, we dressed appropriately , in dress and formal shirts. both prepared sandwiches so we’d eat the same stuffs.
    are we weird?

  • 29. Michelle  |  February 17th, 2009 at 5:16 pm

    No unicorn you’re not weird. We’re weird because we are telling stories here.

    Anyway, to continue comment no 26.

    …and with the carton of milk, she decided that she should become a milkmaid but the problem is, there is already a milk maid. If there’s not, how can we get the milk maid story with her spilt milk?
    Then, there was this guy…

    tbc

  • 30. sueyin  |  February 17th, 2009 at 8:17 pm

    well the cost of a wedding can be paid by either the couple or their parents.

    i dont see a problem with that at all…i suppose if their parents paid for their wedding, its kinda solves some of their financial worries.

    the only things i can say is lucky for them to start their marriage life this way..:)

  • 31. Alynna  |  February 17th, 2009 at 8:44 pm

    Here’s a triple S; that is, Super Sappy Story: Yesterday was the first time I kissed a boy after not seeing him for 2 months. It was off the hook. :) And I still can’t get over the feeling. The shivers. Whee!

    (Sorry, too much coffee this morning for me!)

  • 32. Yellow corn  |  February 17th, 2009 at 9:56 pm

    Kok, reciprocation or affirmation – I do agree but I don’t think there’s any harm in becoming frens rite?

    Thing is some guys just practically ignore or disregard you after that. And that’s when I tell myself, my God….I made the right decision by not accepting that sour grape….hahaha…

    Nah….no sexism war here, Tan…just pouring out some frustrations here about past experiences. I still believe there are good men out there. As well as unconditional love. Hahaha.

    PinkPau, no problem. Ur studies & exams comes first…u can comment about all this later ;p

  • 33. FRESH.OYSTERS  |  February 17th, 2009 at 10:02 pm

    one day, a char siew pau was walking along the street. suddenly, he felt very hungry, and he gobbled himself up. *burp*

    -_______- supposed to be a lame joke. ;P

  • 34. k0k  |  February 17th, 2009 at 11:19 pm

    Yellow corn,

    Of course, you can’t discount the possibility that the guy might be so embarrassed that he simply can’t continue being friend without feeling awkward all the time. It’ll be a one sided relationship because both the girl and the guy knew that once upon a time, the girl had him by the heart. Not many guys are prepared to be in that sort of friendship.

    Also, maybe the guy had moved along and is focusing all attention on the next target? Tell me, Yellow corn (i’m assuming that you’re a girl), if a guy is in love with you and is going after you – how would you feel if that guy is still good friends with the girl he was after before but failed? Most girls don’t like that (and most girls can still get the occasional jealous fit because of their BFs’ ex – I’d know). It’s not at all practical. Past crushes are liabilities that way. You can’t blame guys for this because this is the playing field you girls gave us.

  • 35. Grouchy  |  February 18th, 2009 at 3:56 am

    found a DEAD black cat in front of my car as i was leaving for work today. CHOi !!!!!

    turned around, undressed, grabbed the “cangkul” from the storage, dug a hole, went back to DEAD-cat, lifted the stiff with the cangkul, walked to the freshly dug hole about 50m away, dropped it into the hole to find the hole too small. Bleah.

    looked at watch, running late. mumbled apologies to the stiff and stuffed it as much as possible into the hole. covered swiftly with dug dirt. plus some stones to keep the stiff from poking out of said small hole. felt like a murderer disposing a corpse. bleah.

    headed back home, on the way noticed a neighborhood kiddo staring at me from his bike. waved at him. no response. bleah. had a quick shower and rushed for work.

    sekian sahaja peristiwa hari ini.

  • 36. joyce  |  February 18th, 2009 at 4:41 am

    Short story. Here goes. Behind my house lives a family of fishmongers.

    Any unsold fish from the day will be coated in a thick layer of crystal-like salt and will be left in the open sun to dry up, hence, the birth of the delicacy of ikan masin or salted fish.

    Unfortunately, in the drying up process, the stench given out by the dead fish are akin to that of human cadavers, thus attracting flies, any buzzards, red ants, and strangely, bees. Not to mention they attract cats as well. Night and day the little cadavers will be left in the open till they shrivel up and during this period, interesting activities can be witnessed.

    Cats will saunter up to the cadavers and eat them, flicking away those they do not want after a bite or two. Usually, the cats’ seating at their ‘diner’ will be on top of these little fishies. Hence, this is how cat saliva and other ‘waste’ which we would choose not to envision will be incorporated into the ikan masin, adding spices to it. At times, when there are just too many flies, papa fishmonger will emerge with his huge can of pesticide and spray all over the ikan masin,hence again, adding spice.

    Only after about 3 days of pesticide-spraying and meals for the cats, the ikan masin will be kept and sold to innocent people like us who loves ikan masin with our nasi lemak.

    So thank you, no more ikan masin for me for the rest of my life.

    I hope you’ll be entertained SuAnn.All the best for your mid terms.

  • 37. Yellow corn  |  February 18th, 2009 at 5:07 am

    Boy, this is getting interesting. Kok, yes I’m a gal.

    One scenario: I once knew a guy who really liked me & we ( 5 of us) were supposed to go for an overseas trip together.

    After I “turned down” him (very nicely ok), he decided to forego the trip. I practically had to beg him to go & not just waste $$$ like that. I don’t understand why can’t we be friends and still enjoy the trip together. After all, its a group thingy and not a 2 person trip.

    Had it been a 2 person trip, I’d haf totaly understood about the awkwardness of it all, and And I really, sincerely wanted to still be friends with the guy. Go yumchar together, be buddies etc…Haiiihhh…so hard lar, to be a gal….

  • 38. elaine  |  February 18th, 2009 at 5:36 am

    Yellow corn, i totally agree with you. :)

    like just recently, i rejected a guy. before he was all sweet and nice. but after that, he just totally became another person and didn’t even want to talk anymore that sort of situation. I mean, i do sincerely hope to stay the way we were but i guess some guys just find it pointless to continue doing something that has no results. But what i’m concern here is, can’t we just keep the friendship? So they would rather have it all or nothing? :/

  • 39. vialentino  |  February 18th, 2009 at 8:55 am

    hey pink pau…how r u doing? coming back to KL?

  • 40. ponneh  |  February 18th, 2009 at 9:51 am

    On Valentine’s night, my boyfriend dreamt that a guy messed up his computer so badly he wanted to whack the shite out of him. so he used the back of his elbow to hit the guy repeatedly.

    In real life he was jabbing my ribs with his elbow cause I was sleeping just beside him. -____-

    I was afraid of him jabbing me again so I slept the other way round. Then his legs nearly kicked my face; I managed to slap them away in time.

    He emo-ed and slept on the floor. Sans blanket.

    Next morning when he left for his room I didn’t notice at all. Hahaha

  • 41. eyang  |  February 18th, 2009 at 9:39 pm

    pau =( so many things to share with you!

  • 42. Jimi  |  February 18th, 2009 at 11:34 pm

    it’s been awhile since my last visit here. almost forgot about pinkpau. i’ve seen this girl before at youth 08 when kennysia was there ^^.

  • 43. Ee Von  |  February 18th, 2009 at 11:46 pm

    i was in the car with my lecturer yesterday and he freaking farted silently. i wanted to wind down the window to save my life but he locked it! i swear i almost died. the smell was soooo rotten i think he must have not shat for 1 week.

    if there’s one stench in the world i cannot stand, it’d be the stench of fart. except my own wtf.

    the best part of all is HE BLAMED ME FOR FARTING OMG. and when he knew he could find no other things to blame, he said it was the air outside cos we were driving pass some factories and he blamed the smell on the factories.

  • 44. Charlie  |  February 19th, 2009 at 12:17 am

    So once upon a time right, I was pee-ing in the plane and forgot to lock the door so the pilot opened it and saw my bush.

    Good luck with midterms :D

    hahahahaha im cracking up reading some of these stories. y’all have such interesting lives. reply in a bit when i’m done studying!!

  • 47. k0k  |  February 19th, 2009 at 2:17 am

    @Yellow corn,

    Did all the other people who were going on that trip knew that he’s into you (and more importantly, knew that you rejected him)? That’d make it even WORSE than if it’s a 2 person trip. I wouldn’t blame any guy who refuses to go.

    And I beg to differ; It’s harder to be a guy. A guy has to go all out and risk making a fool of himself every time he goes after a girl. A girl just need to say “yes” or “you’re a great guy but…”

    Also, it’s not that a guy was only friends with you because he’s interested in getting together with you – it’s not that he doesn’t want you as a friend in the first place. There’s a lot more to it. Nonchalance and avoidance is just easier to do than pretending nothing ever happened – because both you and him know otherwise. That’s how guys handle uncomfortable situations. Don’t think badly of guys who are like that, please.

    On a related note, that’s why guys hate to “talk it out” over any quarrel, preferring instead to mope and recover from them alone. Classical male behaviour.

  • 50. Yellow corn  |  February 20th, 2009 at 1:19 am

    Kok, nobody in the group knew. Only me & him.

    He told me that he’s not going right after I turned down him. It was a total act of defiance.

    Kok, in this zaman, a gal also has to go all out and risks making a fool of herself every time she goes after a guy too. I’ve been on that road b4, the guy turned me down…of coz i was disappointed, but we are still frens.

    But haih….enuf wif this topic…we r going nowhere. Hahaha. Noticed you’ve got a blog. Wil check it out soon. I’m actualy working, so am multitasking ;)

  • 51. Ken  |  February 20th, 2009 at 11:28 am

    I’m an exchange student in America right now and heading back home in July right before independence day (I know, it sucks =C)

    So i was at the school dance last friday and talk about being culturally shocked. I was pushed into the middle of the dance floor and me and my “date” were dancing. I looked around and found everyone dry humping and grinding each other. It was so awkward.

    I was like, “Should i dry hump my date too?”

    Hell no! I’m gay!

    The way these teenagers dance, they are so oversexualized that me and my friend’s slutty moves back at home are deemed teasing here.

    I’m a god damn tease.

    so many weird and funny stories in my head….but i cant put them in words.

    these are the stories that will stay with you for the rest of your live.

  • 54. sansblague  |  February 22nd, 2009 at 12:09 pm

    so i was sitting at a coffee shop (Willoughby’s) minding my own business and doing my reading when three guys dressed in suits sat down at the table next to me. this one guy in particular kept turning his head and staring at me, and i distinctly remember feeling really annoyed and uncomfortable. there was belligerence, and indignance and an impulsive desire to get up and ask him “why do you keep looking at me? that’s really rude!”.

    before i could compose my words, the barista strolled over with a cookie in hand, and handed it to the guy, who high-fived her in return. as they both exchanged their secret handshake and knowing smiles, i realized that he had Down-Syndrome’s; mild as it may be.

    just a reminder that people are still real and life is eternally stirring — be you at Columbia, the US or Malaysia.

    Good luck for finals, Su Ann. You can do it!

  • 55. sansblague  |  February 22nd, 2009 at 12:10 pm

    here’s a something i heard that made me crack up today.

    a friend of mine wants to tattoo the side of his index finger with a moustache so that he can say hello to people with a mo when he places his index finger against his upper lip.

    just picture it.
