Of Spanish and American delicacies!

And for the first time, I don’t mean men.

Dinner at Pinchos, a Spanish restaurant on Changkat Bukit Bintang. Its owner, Roberto, hails from Barcelona (I remember because I asked him why he supported Barcelona FC and he replied because he was from Barcelona … well I felt clever) but has been living in Malaysia for nine years now. He can even speak Malay gasp!

And then, presenting, the Daily Grind in Bangsar Village. Specialty? Big, succulent gourmet burgers. Even Kristi had to give in to her American half and gorge herself silly with the burgers.

We went on Christmas Eve!

Cheese Nachos for starters omfg anything with cheese bring it on I say! Everything’s just so much better with cheese.

Presenting the burgers … omg my life is complete.

“The buns are so shiny.” – Kristi Jones.

Shots by U Zhing! Or I think it was her boyfriend trying to be artistic.

Room for desserts!

“I think I have two stomachs. One for the main course, the other for desserts.” – Kristi Jones. Again.

Me and the quote churner for the night! Haha! She had another good one. “All the good-looking men are either assholes, taken or gay.”

Yay Christmas and friends (and family!). Nothing better.

EXCEPT MAYBE NEW YEAR’S AND FRIENDS! Happy New Year’s for tomorrow everyone!

Going green (wtf this post had no title at first)

I don’t know what it was, maybe it was Cheesie’s tupperware post, maybe a recycling sign fell and hit me over the head or maybe it was just wanting to feel like you can make a difference in this world … but I’m going green! (Sorry to break this to you but there’s no meaning in life, life is what you make of it and you make your own meaning … wise words from a person who only understood half of what she just said. Hey meaning in life is a tough subject.)

From now on, I pledge to:

1. Reject plastic bags except in dire situations (like there was this once I had to cycle home from a facial and obviously I can’t hold my facial products in one hand. I am a horrible cyclist) and instead carry “green” bags to store stuff! I did that yesterday it felt good! Until I forgot and took this plastic bag from the camera store … it’s staring at me now from my bed. But I was good! I rejected about four bags!

2. Bring Tupperware to tapao food (Ed if you’re reading this stop laughing! He laughs at the word tapao) and my own flask to get Starbucks! But I’m confused like … can you use flask to get cold drinks? Like kinda weird right. Ok this one a bit harder but I will try!

And … I think that’s about it for now. And I reuse paper now instead of throwing them away! I know right like wtf so late to descend into this whole being friends with the environment thing. And I swear that my first car will be a hybrid one! Unless someone buys me a Porsche or other luxury cars or if I win one. Which is not gonna happen unless Cristiano Ronaldo realizes his love for me.

ANYWAY! Go green too! Try! So I’ll stop feeling stupid everytime I reject plastic bags. I’m trying to get my mom to buy those reusable bags for our groceries but she put them back secretly…

From Hannah’s farewell party. Was a good night … initially. Until the extremely crowded atmosphere at Space (and all those KIDS there urgh) ruined my night. I think I might be too old for Heritage. Post photos soon!

Merry Christmas everyone!

How to mince/sugarcoat words ... or just change them entirely.

I started with a little, and I just realized how good I was with them, and so I’m posting them up haha! Comment and give me more I’ll gladly wrap them in subtlety for you!

(I’m putting the harsher statements as “Die” meaning you’ll die if you use them … and you’ll “live” if you use mitigating speech. Think I’m overexaggerating? Yeah try telling a woman she’s fat.)

Die: I’m not a relationship kind of girl.

Live: It’s hard for me to find the right guy.

Die: I am interested in controversial topics.

Live: My topics of interest have always sparked lively debates.

Die: I love you.

Live: I really like you.

Die: I live with my parents.

Live: I just feel responsible as their child to take care of them until I’m ready to start my own family and go for walks around the park with my children. (K the park thing might be pushing it.)

Die: I think your boyfriend is cute and I want to shag him.
Live: Congrats on the boyfriend he’s gorgeous!

Die: I am an environmental-loving freak and I think you should recycle as much as I do.

Live: Recycle.

Die: I still watch Disney channel for their cartoons.

Live: Zac Efron makes me watch Disney.

Die: I don’t want to engage in bondage acts with you.

Live: Let’s do that tomorrow. (Break up with said person tomorrow and flee country.)

Die: I don’t want to give you my number and I don’t want to go out with you.

Live: You’ll have to earn it.

Die: I am always at the top of my class, I do the best in all my subjects and I am a confident person.

Live: I excel academically.

Die: I really like spending time with you.

Live: I really like spending time with you.

Die: I don’t have a job.

Live: I’m exploring options.

Die: This date is a disaster and I want to leave.

Live: I have to feed my cat.

Die: Your breath smells and I don’t want to spend another second with you.

Live: I have to feed my cat.

Die: You have a wife?

Live: I have to feed my cat.

Die: Sometimes I cry myself to sleep.

Live: I’m very in touch with my emotions.

Die: Shit I’m busy on that day but you’re really hot and I really wanna go out with you.

Live: I have a family dinner on that day.

Die: You’re an ass.

Live: Men are all the same.

Die: You’ve put on weight!

Live: NOTHING.

Just don’t say anything. No “Oh you’re so much healthier now!” or “Oh you look so much better since the last I saw you.” Don’t say it. Girls can tell through everything and we’ll know that something “different” always means in the weight department. In the first place who would be stupid enough to say that to a girl it’s like they have a death wish or something.

Same with age. Because just like Samantha Jones, a lot of women have probably celebrated their 35th birthday for as long as they have lived. And do you really wanna cross a woman with such determination?
