Posts filed under 'Memes'
to celebrate my recent acquisition of stable internet access at The Workplace, and also the departure of BossBird from the office, i have decided to put this god-given boss-free internet-powered five minutes of free time to good use. so i am coming up with something cool for my blog, which hopefully will be continuous for all eternity and will not be abandoned anytime soon.
I present to you the MONDAY MEME!
to kickstart the working week and to get rid of post weekend doldrums (for myself, but hopefully for you too), i’m going to write briefly about a topic every Monday. any topic. the keyword is BRIEF, just to remind myself not to get too caught up in verbiage as i tend to do. and if you guys have any stories or thoughts of your own to share about this topic, please do share! i would love to read what you have to say, and compare stories, and see whose stories kick more butt. :)
the objectives of the Monday Meme are:
1. to rid self — and hopefully you too — of OSIM* blues
2. to massage my brain into action at the start of the week by doing a little writing
3. to facilitate an exchange of interesting stories between myself and my readers, and a subsequent forum
4. to generate some reading material for the rest of the work week
5. okay cant really think of another objective, but i want a fifth one because all sets of objectives always end at five. will be back for this!!
this week’s Monday Meme: is about How You Met Your Boyfriend/Girlfriend. cos i am currently undergoing a dearth of joy, and i think that hearing sweet, romantic or funny stories will make me feel a lot better. especially if they are sweet, romantic, funny stories of how the biggest things can spring forth from the smallest of incidents.
so my story is not about a current boyfriend (not that i have one), but an ex boyfriend. he first sent me an email saying he came across my blog, and because we had similar interests, he offered his help with something. a friend of his had shown him my blog a whole year earlier, but he refused to email me back then for some very snobby reasons (i basically didnt apply to his university and he thought my choices of colleges were not atas enough). he also thought my blog was the most moronic and atrociously pink thing he had ever seen, but emailed me anyway out of courtesy, because he’s very courteous and benevolent like that. very coincidentally, some months later we happened to meet each other at a big lunch outing. he couldn’t stand how i was “wearing pink” (i actually was NOT; i was wearing white) and how i was so obnoxiously cheerful and smiley. he went home from lunch thinking, “oh my god i cannot stand this girl. why is she so pink and so happy?”
one month later he emails me to ask me out for dinner. why? i dont know and i shall never know. but i said yes, and that was the night his life was changed because he was henceforth incredibly smitten by me. why? apparently because i quoted some random author and it happened to be his favorite book or something. also because he had to admit that he was just no match for my cute charms. he then proceeded to pester me for another week to go out with him for drinks, dinner, movies, clubbing, anything; but i turned him down every single time because our ‘date’ ended with him thrusting twenty bucks into my hand hastily and saying “i’m sure i’ll see you at some point” before he slammed the cab door shut and trundled quickly away into the night. eventually we got together because i thought his persistence and general cannot-make-itness were very cute. plus he was quite good at math and offered to help me do my calculus homework if i would go out with him (yes, this is how they get the girls these days). now he is madly in love with me, and i think i may be madly in love with him too, but i broke up with him for a great sin he committed, which i will probably write about in the next Monday Meme, which will likely be titled, “Stupid Things Your Ex Boyfriend Has Done To You That Warrant a Break Up or Month-long Silent Treatment”.
okay.
what’s your story? :D
*OSIM = Oh Shit It’s Monday
July 6th, 2009
a long, long time ago, i told Martian that i wanted to write a bf/gf meme to put on my blog, and that if i ever did, he has to oblige and do his boyfriendly duty of layaning my creation. so after an eternity of the text file sitting in his inbox and a lot of pestering from me, he finally got around to doing the meme!
so HERE IT IS!
my answers first, and then his.
tell us about the first time you met and your first impression of him/her:
it was at the coffee bean in mont kiara. it’s the cutest story… he came up behind me and asked if he could buy me a drink. i whirled around and said very curtly, “no i can buy my own drinks, thank you”. i may or may not have thrown in a glare, hahaha. but the smile he gave me as he asked me that was the most heart-stopping thing i’d ever seen. he still has that smile :) we sat down to talk after that, and as far as first impressions go, i thought that this guy was just way too charming, quite dangerously so. smart, definitely.. kinda cool :) he let me look through his ipod and i remember feeling very surprised that we had such similar taste in music. he likes to think that i fell in love with him from that day, but actually HE is the one who still remembers exactly what i wore on that day.. right down to which bag i used. go on, ask him!
what’s a weird habit or quirk that s/he has?:
when he sneezes, he likes to make a kung-fu stance. it looks unbelievably ridiculous
what makes him/her happy?:
reminiscing and revisiting his childhood
what makes him/her sad?:
sunday nights
what makes him/her angry?:
barisan nasional. and other people’s incompetence
what excites him/her?
museums. the Singer and Flatiron buildings in NYC -_-
tell us something funny about him/her:
hahaha got a lot. okay he’s got this absolutely perfected method of getting people to give him what he wants, no matter how difficult these people are. i call it the Julian Method – it’s basically modeled after the Socratic Method where he asks the person question after question until they paint themselves into a corner of logical fallacy, and have no choice but to give him what he wants. it was absolutely hilarious to watch at first, but now i feel very sorry for the poor prats who get in his way.
what’s s/he like at home?:
bossy. VERY bossy.
what’s s/he like at work/school?:
at school, apparently he was the quiet, shy kid. my suspicion is that he was the Christian Fellowship kinda guy… gentle, soft-spoken, mature, plays the guitar… you know the type, haha. ah such a far cry from the Martian i know today. as for at work.. he’s the ‘cool, suave one’ according to his colleagues. ya it’s quite hard to keep a straight face when i hear stuff like that :P
describe his/her room:
minimalist. bed, floor, wardrobe, books, that’s it. but i try my best to litter it with girly things like polar bears and ducks…
what’s his/her best friend like?:
okay let’s see. he has two favorite people – one’s an architect who is the coolest person ever. very assertive and extremely smart. he recently went to sieutheng’s architectural school to give a crit session, and just about all the students fell in love with him. when i saw her for dinner the next day she kept talking about how cool this architect was and at first i didnt really make the connection, but then she said that he walked in looking like he’d just rolled out of bed, and it all kinda clicked into place, haha. Martian’s other best friend lives in Budapest, and she’s really warm and friendly. she’s a great singer and Martian’s really proud of her. he said that if we get married, she’s gonna be his best man!
do you know who s/he hates the most?: he doesnt like a lot of people, but he doesnt totally hate anyone.
have you met his/her exes?:
aiyaaaa he has so many exes how to meet them all. at one point early in our relationship we kept bumping into random ex-girlfriends of his. quite amusing, to say the least. all very nice. no psycho exes or anything
do his/her parents like you?:
ya cos i very pandai ambil hati <3 Martian's parents are extremely cute though. his mom always scolds Martian when he forces me to eat stuff - "AIYA dont force people la!!" - but then 5 minutes later she'll persuade me to eat the same thing. his dad is even cuter.. very blur and has all these totally adorable mannerisms especially when he tries to act smart. haha!
what’s the first thing s/he would do or say if s/he fell down and scraped their knee:
“AH, FUCK”
what would s/he do in an emergency situation with other people involved?:
take control and start bossing everyone around. “everybody, CALM DOWN. LISTEN TO ME.”

bookstore
what would s/he have for a typical breakfast?:
muesli + soymilk.. protein shake.. carrot chips.. or something silly like that

the same ones i would
describe his/her taste in music: eclectic (i know he will use this word to describe mine too. bet how much!). favorites: radiohead, coldplay, beatles, 80’s stuff. lanatir if you are reading this i think you and Martian would get along so well when it comes to music!

NO ONE ELSE *possessive
what item in his/her wardrobe would you like to burn:
so there were these checkered pants that he loved to wear for a while……

what is s/he totally horrible at?:
drawing…… hahahahaha
what’s something about him/her that is annoying/infuriating?:
the way he likes to burst into song every now and then, but then criticizes musicals like shit because he says he cant stand the way they all have to say everything in song. WTF THE HYPOCRISY
what’s something that you two fundamentally disagree on?:
the blood type diet. but BREAKING NEWS ladies and gentlemen! as of this evening, i am pleased to report that my boyfriend has declared the end of his blood type diet phase. yes! score! now when i stay with him we dont have to eat at blood type food anymore.
what’s something that you two agree whole-heartedly on?:
politics. a fair bit of our religious/spiritual outlook. wong ah wah chicken wings and kam heong lala at jalan alor!

why would s/he succeed in life?: charm. intelligence. and the Julian Method.
what is the coolest gift that s/he has ever given you?: POOCH! i love pooch and am attached to him in ways i cannot explain. nah show you all a picture:
what is s/he obsessed with?: healthy stuff. massages. bloomberg (haha). his quest for eternal happiness.
what does s/he avoid at all costs?: musicals. omg do you know how hard i had to beg him to take me to Beauty and the Beast…
what does s/he spend the most money on?: blood type diet food plans… haiyo. and random splurgey things like couches and mattresses. he had three mattresses in his singapore apartment -_- oh actually wait i know the real answer! the real answer is rent.
describe his/her typical sunday: in singapore/hongkong – wake up at 10am for brunch, complain to me about not waking up earlier and have thus “wasted the whole morning”, gets dragged out by me for pancake brunches, then we hang out at cafes or bookstores or explore some yet unseen facet of the city, then we go home and do lazy lovely sunday things. if in KL, then the day is usually spent with his family.
why would s/he be dangerous?: very fierce when scolding people T____T if he scolds me i sure cry wan cos so scary.
tell us about a time s/he looked absolutely gorgeous:
every morning when he gets dressed for work. sometimes he catches me watching him, and he’ll turn around and smile. my heart flutters :)
what’s something about him/her that would surprise all of his/her friends?:
he cares a lot more than he lets on
what do you love most about him/her?: his strength, his kindness and his sincerity. and his smile. and the way he holds me. the way he gives in to me. the way he loves.
the biggest lesson you have learnt from loving your partner:
“to love is to surpass oneself.” :)
——————-
okay Martian’s answers! haha i had a lot of fun reading them and couldnt stop laughing at some. sigh <3
tell us about the first time you met and your first impression of him/her:
We had been chatting online for a while and we finally agreed to meet at the mont kiara coffee bean . I recognised her from her blog and approached her with an affected chat-up line “can I buy you a drink?”
to which she replied with a curt “no”. I thought she had beautiful,enquiring eyes.
tell us something funny about him/her:
when she’s at the buffet, she leaves a trail of evidence: cavity on the bread roll that looked like it was nibbled by a mouse, teaspoon in twice-sipped tea, half eaten cookies, a variety of nibbled cheeses, and once-bitten variety of chocolates neatly arranged on a small plate.
(pinkpau: okay seriously i dont know why he thinks this is so funny. each time we’re eating he will find some reason to laugh at the way i eat. WHY?!?!)

she thinks she’s various animals at various times, namely the cat and duck are the more frequent manifestations while the mouse and fish occasionally rear their heads (or lips)
what makes him/her happy?: Ice cream, cup cakes, diet coke, wifi and plug points.
what makes him/her sad?: Being away from friends, family and me. And the simultaneous absence of all of the stuff mentioned in the previous question. Oh and too much homework especially of the calculus kind.
what makes him/her angry?: Stupid politicians. And being nagged at and lorded over and/or the perception thereof.
what excites him/her?: A holiday to somewhere she’s never been.
what’s s/he like at home?: authoratative and caring at the same time.
what’s s/he like at work/school?: rebellious in high school. Stressed out now in college.

Other stuff include an ambient standing lamp, a loud growling standing fan, a bulbless round yellow lamp shade hanging from the flourescent lamp, lots of shoes and clothes, shoes, a maroon duvet on maroon sheets, shoes and a maroon fabric container that houses the toiletries, an airbrush of new york and an atlas. Things mysteriously take a life of their own and move all over her room.
(pinkpau: at first i was so confused as to what random room he was describing cos this is not my room!! but then i realized he was talking about my dorm room here in college. haih…)
what’s his/her best friend like?: i’m not sure because she has many and some new ones. They are generally very cool and supportive of her.
do you know who s/he hates the most?: I kinda have a hunch.
have you met his/her exes?: yes
do his/her parents like you?: yes
(pinkpau: understatement of the century. seriously. my mom cant stop saying how she wants us to get married. and when Martian and i fight, she ALWAYS takes his side. damn unfair! ma, i am your firstborn!!!)
what’s the first thing s/he would do or say if s/he fell down and scraped their knee: a long owwwww, followed by a series of short ow ow ow ow ow and maybe most probably tears.

what would you do with a million dollars?
i would spend it on my friends and family.
but because i’m so lazy, i’d buy all their stuff online and then get everything delivered right to their doorstep :P
i shamefully admit that i’ve never used eBay in my life and I don’t know how to :( but i do know how to use MUDAH.com.my because it’s damn easy!!! it’s like a Malaysian cyber marketplace where you can buy and sell stuff; very simple to use and extremely fuss-free. so forget hunting down people and beating traffic jams to get to the malls, MUDAH.com.my is where I’ll buy all my presents when I have a million dollars :P
behold my choice of gifts!!!
for Martian, a healthy salad shop (RM 48,000)! there is no bigger health food lover than my boyfriend. sigh. maybe if i bought him a whole salad shop, he would get sick of the health food and then we can go out and eat PROPER FOOD! like McDonalds.
for Sieutheng, a nice and vast Lot Getah (RM 135,000). You know why I know why!
for Aira, I’ll get you Draco Malfoy :D but you must share him with me!

for my dad, a brand new Sony PSP (RM 520) cos i know you secretly want one but don’t dare to buy cos you scared ppl laugh at you
for my mum and Martian’s mum, a Mahjong and Gin Rummy Travel Set (RM 68). hahaha cos they’re both such mahjong kakis

for Short Brother, E-Tuition for Form 3 Students! go and STUDY LAH YOU pmr this year -___-

behold!!! the great photo meme!!! :D it took me FOREVER to find all the right photos, but i finally did it. i really like this meme – it brought back a lot of good memories as i sifted through all my photos :) everyone should do it; it would be lovely to see all your versions of these pictures!
START -
1. The most recent picture of you. Where was it taken, when was it taken and who took it? How was your mood?
this is Jon and i at the airport, right before Freddy left for Illinois and Jon for Canada a couple of days ago. i think it was Jin who took the picture. i was feeling sad and very numb.
2. A picture of you with a friend. Who is this friend? How did you meet him/her? How long have you known him/her?:
his name is Johann, we met at the lobby of Crown Towers Melbourne (Johanny, do you remember RONALD! hahahaha!) where he then whisked me away for gelato at Lygon Street. we’ve known each other for about 4 years :) this photo was taken on a ferry in Hong Kong.
3. A picture of you with your spouse/partner. How long have you known each other/been married/been going out?
this is the Martian and you can read his posts when he hijacks my blog over here. we’ve known each other 4 years, and have been going out for 1.5 years

6. A picture of you making a yo dawg sign:
i tried very hard to find a picture of me doing a yo dawg sign, but i have to report that i do not own a SINGLE picture of me doing anything remotely like it :( i even went through my Pow Wow pictures to see if Alvo and Voon had any influence on our hand signage, but no dice.

11. A picture of you on stage:
after all these years, you’d think that i’d have at least a couple of photos of myself debating or doing public speaking onstage, but i do not!!!! isn’t that weird? so here is a photo of me receiving a cert for the MPH Young Writer’s Award thingy in 2006. onstage wat, right!
12. A picture of you playing sport:

because.
