I'm blowing you now!

A guy said that to me recently and I was thanking that it was not the other way around. LOL! Alright, the point here is if you have to say something, say it properly and correctly. You never knew what people may intrepret from your sentence. Say it right okay people!

This guy is actually a very bubbly, friendly and talented hair stylist. He's like the second male hair stylist that I've met that is ever so chatty and really good at PR with his customers. The first stylist I met years back was a tad on the queer side so you know what I mean right. Most gays are over the top friendly but they are always the best in the industry. I love them gays. They are so good at fashion!

Okay back to this recent male stylist whom I suspect is a straight guy. Haha. First impression, I thought he's a Chinese. When he started speaking more and more to me, he appears to be like one of those mix Malays. Finally, I totally gave up guessing on his ethnics when he gave me his name card at the cash counter. It appears to be some Mat Salleh name. So I guess, he's a Malaysian, Eurasian.

While styling and making me look pretty, gosh, this guy is like non-stop killing me with styling terms, lamenting on his ex gf hair problems which I thought was totally unrelated to my problem, haha, and the very remark he made which I entirely agreed with him and I was like literally putting my faith on him to make me look good! I've never had anyone, a hair stylist for that matter literally said bluntly on my face something like this."The moment I saw you, I knew that I need to do something with your hair. I so 'geram' seeing your hair." Damn, I know it's all so messy and unruly. Hehe. Since we both were talking like old friends, so it was alright. I didn't mind him scrutinizing my hair and lifting my hair's soul from dead to alive and kicking!

Hey, that's it for now. I'm crapping way too much details.

On a side note, I need to learn to blow dry my hair so that it's all nicely in place and he recommended that the next time I should go for hair straightening instead of the spaghetti-like rebonding treatment. And if you guys wanna get your hair cut by him, pay him a visit at A Cut Above, Sunway Pyramid branch. Look out for that petite, chirpy, fair guy! And guess what, hair stylist also do blog!Hehe.

Impression/Day count going down!

Woa...so much impact if you don't post anything for more than 3 days. On a normal day with at least one post per day, I will get page impression of at least 30ish to the maximum of 80ish. I know it's not that much compared to others like you people because mainly I didn't promote about this blog to others and have effort to drop comments on other blogs too.

I've slowed down on writing for the past couple of days because I was confused, caught up with other things and unconsciously abandon this blog once again. It ain't helping the least bit to bring up the blog impression. Oh yeah, impression is the Google Adsense counter for how many views that you receive per day for your site. I'm telling you, making money with Adsense is hard work and you need lotsa effort and preserverance. For some really good reason, I need someone to kick me hard in the butt to keep me moving. I had a mere 9 page impression yesterday and that was super pathetic.

And on a side note, I'm actually trying to promote another blog. It's a bike blog. Click here. I'm thinking to put Nuffnag over on that site and Adsense on this site. We'll see at the end of the month, which ad is making the most turnover.

Oopps...Flabby!

You see when you start shaking your legs and you feel flabs of flesh moving in rhythm right at your thigh area, that is not a good sign. You need to tone your body muscle. I don't have issues with being overweight because I'm actually a tad underweight. Haha. But the thing is now, I feel that I need to have a tone body. I don't want to have flabby flesh!

Being underweight and gaining a kilo is like almost impossible for me. It will happen I suppose only and only if I stuff my body with oil and fat for 6 times a day which I'm not ever going to be like that. A friend of mine suggests that I should do weight exercises. It's like the more exercises you make, the hungrier you get, thus you will eat more and you will also need some calories burning activities to kick out those extra calories intake. The problem with underweight people is if you eat a lot, your tummy will be the first place to get the fat attack. You'll notice a tummy and ouch, it looks ugly if you are wearing a cute, body hugging baby-T.

Besides weight exercises like dumbbells and so on, I've tried Pilates. Man, my body aches for two days after one pilates exercise and since then, I never came around doing them again. Haha. But I think I should stick back to it because I can see the difference in my abs. It's a really excellent abs work out and it strengthen your spine and upper body area. Flat, toned abs coming up soon. Like the saying goes, "No pain , no gain".

Say no to Flabs! Hehe.

Head to Toe Swimsuit

Peering outside the window checking out on those hunky men in trunks I spotted something rather peculiar. No way, the guy actually has a 6 packs and he's looking good. I wish my babes were there with me to gawk away in glory. Hehe... Oh yeah, I wish it was a scenic view of men and women in skimpy bathing suits trying to get a tan somewhere on a beautiful sandy beach of Australia. So much of wishful thinking eh!

Okay coming back to the peculiar part.

I looked and I looked hard. I finally figured that one of them is actually a female and she's trying to teach another lady friend of hers to master the breast strokes leg kicking with the float. Apparently, this very lady had a pretty weird gear on for her swimming attire. I spotted her wearing a cap. Okay, it's sure is hot out there , but swimming with a cap ? And I'm talking about that full fledged baseball cap, not a swimming cap alright.

I was thinking, oh yeah, probably this is one of those Muslim swimsuit wear, commercially known as the Burqini (I just got to know this from Google. Hehe). However, from what I can vividly remember , that lady definitely wasn't wearing one of those Burqinis. She was actually spotting on a complete, long sleeved, long pants diving suit. She also had a cap on and later on, I saw her putting on a pair of gloves and waded in the water. I was like WHAT???

I don't know if her fashion statement is close enough to be called as a Burqini, the head to toe Muslim swimsuit. At least if she would have put on the proper Burqini, she would certainly looked pretty in it. But with the cap and gloves , I'm just baffled beyond words.

Conquest of the Galaxy :Mars

"INVASION ALERT: Condors is Landing in KL – Fasten Your Seatbelts!"







That's the promo tagline to highlight the return of the Condors yet again right here in KL next week. But that's not the promo picture that I got from their red color flier. I google for that picture above. Hehe.

You may be asking, "Condors...what?"
Check this out:

"The sensational 11-member, all-male Japanese dance troupe Condors is returning to KL after performing to packed halls here eight years ago!

The Japan Foundation, Kuala Lumpur, and The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (klpac), in cooperation with Embassy of Japan are proud to present Conquest of the Galaxy: Mars from 19 March to 21 March. This three-day only performance is part of their tour, which is supported by the Agency of Cultural Affairs.

Condors has conquered their homeland and turned the Japanese contemporary dance scene on its head. In fact, tickets for one of their performances in Tokyo were snapped up the very day it went on sale! And it doesn’t stop there – Condors Mania has spread all over the world and the troupe often performed to sell out shows overseas as well.

Wherever they go, their performance always sends audiences spinning through amazement, shock, and laughter. From their trademark Japanese high-school uniform outfits to their liberal use of shtick and overblown video imagery, this company redefines what a dance performance can and should be. The troupe is also well-known for its satirical treatment of Japanese pop culture.
"
- Quoted from Japan Foundation KL

Still dazed?? Check out About Condors right at their official site.

I'm still a newbie myself to their performance concept but simply imagine the group from Stomp making their performance but this time with a zest of the Oriential Japanese style with more whacky, upbeat performance for sure to uproar the audience in a delightful frenzy. Let's join them next week at KLPac. You won't be left disappointed. That's a sure thing!

Show Details:
Date & Time: 19 – 21 March @ 8.30pm
Venue: Pentas 1, KLPac

PREVIEW NIGHT : 19 March, RM20 flat.

Lamb Shoulder and Gourmet Burger Yasz's Style


A blackened lamb shoulder. It's not over burnt, it's just too much of soy sauce. Some tehnical recipe error there. However, the meat is juicy and not over cooked. Just the color may give you a bit of a shock. That's all. I got a pretty good rating for this meal, so it's not that bad at all.As long as the other person who eats it is happy, I'm happy!


I took some effort to blanched both the asparagus and brocolli for a couple of minutes in boiling water and quickly transfer them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. The end result, you get a crispy, cooked vegetables.


This is the gourmet burgers and fries. It's a gourmet because I made the burgers out of freshly minced beef and mixed some spices like minced rosemary, salt, pepper, a whole egg and minced red onions. You can mix other things too. It depends totally on what you have in your kitchen and yes your creativity of taste! For the fries, I used the normal fries you can buy in the store but surely it'll taste better if you chopped the potatoes yourself into big, fat wedges. After deep frying them, I sprinkled half of them with the normal salt,pepper and paprika. And the other half, I sprinkled the hot fries with vinegar just like the old English recipe of eating fries with salt and vinegar. Yummy!



There are all so yummy and most importantly home made so you need not worry about the high salt and oil content in here.

The Last Lecture

I got a hold of this book and had a quick sneak read of the entire book. Frankfully, I wouldn't have known about Randy Pausch or wouldn't even understood why people posted YouTube clips of Pausch giving a last lecture. Thanks to Oprah, my all time favourite show, and on a little note, I think everyone in Malaysia should watch more of Oprah among other things. Okay I got a bit derailed from topic. Okay thanks to Oprah, I finally got introduced to the late Randy Pausch through one of Dr. Oz's shows in Oprah.

A quickie on Randy Pausch :
"On September 18, 2007, computer science professor Randy Pausch stepped in front of an audience of 400 people at Carnegie Mellon University to deliver a last lecture called “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams.” With slides of his CT scans beaming out to the audience, Randy told his audience about the cancer that is devouring his pancreas and that will claim his life in a matter of months. On the stage that day, Randy was youthful, energetic, handsome, often cheerfully, darkly funny. He seemed invincible. But this was a brief moment, as he himself acknowledged.

Randy’s lecture has become a phenomenon, as has the book he wrote based on the same principles, celebrating the dreams we all strive to make realities. Sadly, Randy lost his battle to pancreatic cancer on July 25th, 2008, but his legacy will continue to inspire us all, for generations to come. ". - Quoted from http://www.thelastlecture.com/

It's totally inspiring to have someone who battled their last feat in life out of cancer and in the end left the world with an excerpt of hope from his book for everyone to ponder and hopefully mend that little defects they are doing right now in their life. As I flipped through the pages, I was glad that I am pretty much on the right track when it comes to having the right attitude in life so that life is totally lived and not wasted.

The Last Lecture is yet another excellent motivational read and if you happen to go to the mall, do take a quick pit stop to the bookstore and read a bit of this book and it's a whole lot better if you just grab and buy it!

and...

To Randy,
Thank you for the inspirations and May God Bless you!

Tagged by Zue!

Hey this is fun! I reckon we need a wee bit of fun around here. Let's check this out!

1. Do you think you are hot?
Shouting out loud, "Yeah!"

2. Upload your favourite picture of you.

3. Why do you like that picture?
Because I was making goofy faces. I would rather look like crap than looking super gojas because I want people to see me as what I am inside and not judging me merely from the first impression and also I don't like people to take advantage of me. So I rather look like crap.

4. When is the last time you ate pizza?
Lunch time with colleagues sometime end of last year I think.

5. The last song you listen to?
No song. Just the sound of cars, boys shouting from the pool, water flowing from the water filter and the fan spinning.

6. What are you doing right now besides this?
Rocking on the chair, talking to my pup and flipping to Take A Break to check on the questions list.

7. What name do you prefer besides yours?
Always love my name especially this one, Yasz. People start calling me this name when I was 12 because apparently people with cockney accent have a knack to making your name sounds uber cool! Hehe.

8. 5 people I tag and I know they won't do anything about it. Hehe.
1. Ms. Kenzo
2. Ad
3. Dayah
4. Hon Weng
5. Ser

9. Who is number 1?
She was my junior from my lovely school Convent. She'll be one of them kids who goes around calling me "Kak Yasmin" up until now. Haha. She's actually the younger sister to my late friend Balkis. I remember having really fond memories doing crazy things as little kids with her. She was really an awesome, smart girl!

10. Number 3 is having relationship with?
I have no idea. That I have to ask her! Hehe.

11. Say something about number 5.
Oh she's my oldest sister. She used to blog a lot last time because that will be the only way we can keep track of her activities. Haha. Since she got pregnant and busy with her cute lil rugrat, she had slowed down so much on her rambling activities. She calls home a lot so I don't have to track her down from her blog anymore. LOL!

12. How about number 4?
He's like the god of Weng-ism but I don't worship him. Haha. I can say, he's one guy that I can look up to because although he's just crazy, wicked in his own way and laughs like a hooligan, he's smart and I can have really good, mature conversations every time with him. He likes to read books and we probably listen to the same kind of music, so yeah, I can't help worshiping him a lil bit. LOL! And I'm tagging you here because I know you are reading this and heck he doesn't have a blog.

13. Who is number 2?
He's a friend of a friend because apparently we both know the same person, Naz. So we get to relate things a lil bit. By far I think he's the longest online friend that I've had up until today. Most of them just gone mia after sometimes. I know him a lot through his blog and just like me, we had multiple blogs before the current one now because we just got tired of the old blog and ended up deleting them. We used to hang out a couple of times and still keep in touch until now. I would really love to check out his new looks and have interesting, catching up conversations with this guy.

I dreamt of couple pounds of Steak!

I was in somewhere in the US with friends and we were in some kind of a food chain outlet that serves really awesome steaks. I was greedily ordering like everything in the menu because I had that sudden knack for eating meat! All I wanted that time was some juicy, red meat. A friend of mine was asking, " You sure u are ordering that. It's not halal you know." Haha..

Well, technically none of us knew if the meat is halal or kosher. I simply replied to him," I don't care. As long as it's not pork, I'm eating!". I was really desperate and dying for some good pounds of read meat. Haha.

Oh well...it was just a dream and I'm salivating already!

Anyways, today's menu is some Gourmet Burgers and Extra Hot Fries! Yummy!

The brake is squealing. Is it a problem?

I knew that the brake has worn out once it starts to make squealing noises once you hit on the brake. I've changed both the brake pads a month ago but apparently, I'm still hearing the squealing. The noise is not as bad as before I change the pad. It starts to squeal when I hit hard on the brake. I really don't know if this is common for new brakes and the mechanic told me to not hit hard on the brake because the brake pads are still new. I guess that's why it is still making noises. A pretty high pitch one too! Hehe.

I've yet to ask other car experts from people at home about this. Anyhow, any one knows why new brake pads squeals when you hit hard on the brakes? And , does it really work to really slam on the break to wear the brake pads a little bit, thus to clear or reduce the noise?

Why do dogs sniff on each other's butt? The Myth!

The topic pretty much came up because we all always ended up talking on random daily things each time we get to meet. I personally find it very entertaining and awesome once we all sit together and brag about stuffs.

Hence, here goes the myth of Dogs Sniffing Butt Action!

Up above in heaven, among all the animals in the animal kingdom, dogs are the only one who actually got kicked out of heaven. The rule to keep your stay in heaven was to not do one thing which is passing out gas ie. fart. For some reason, someone from the dogs groupie actually ended up farting and because they couldn't tell who actually did that, all of them got thrown out of heaven.

In order to save each other's ass which is to get back to heaven, the smartest thing dogs have discovered is to start sniffing on each other's butt to try figuring out if that other dog was the one who farted.

I guess, none of them made it to heaven so that's why up until now, we can still see them sniffing each other's butt whenever they meet. Hehe.

This story is a total myth alright but heck it's a pretty good one to explain the sniffing. However, what if a dog actualy comes over your rear end and start sniffing your butt instead? I've seen that okay! LOL!

Myth aside now.

I just can't help liking dogs. I somehow or rather literally grew up with dogs and if I get a chance to have one, I'm going to name him "Jolly Bar" because that's the name of a dog adopted from Africa and he's such a doll. Our meeting was brief but that is one smart dog for sure.

I just can't help liking dogs. I somehow or rather literally grew up with dogs and if I get a chance to have one, I'm going to name him "Jolly Bar" because that's the name of a dog adopted from Africa and he's such a doll. Our meeting was brief but that is one smart dog for sure.

Please have a make over!

life's a commotion! is in dire need for a face lift or a make over! I've been blogging for over 3 years now and over the years I did came up with some cool, self-made banners. However, things have been kept low key and simplified for over a year now and it's high time for a total blog make over.So just watch out people!

Procrastination and Excuses!

Tomorrow comes Friday and I'm so lacking behind this week.Blaming totally on yours truly for that. The saying goes, "Whatever happens, always blame yourself first. Don't blame others". Hehe.

Anyhow, flashing back on events for the past few days. It was a great meet up with fellow like-minded people. I'm looking forward for more similar events for learning and networking purposes. Some of the things that I've picked up along the way are:

1. If you want to start something, don't go by the 'I'll start slowly' mindset. In business, things are very competitive and fast paced. It you go by 'slowly' you might ended up trailing behind while others keep soaring high.

2. Nothing is ever to late to start. Just start by starting and focus on achieving the goal by having a good plan.

3. "If you want to be a millionaire, don't work with the government" - Anonymous.

4. From how I see it, most people had been going through the trial and error phase in their life just like I did. At some point of your life, you will just know that that's the exact turning point that you should make for that big goal in your life.

5. Never indulge greedily in raw, non fresh seafood because you may ended up with an allergy that itches both your palm and bottom of your feet.

6. Keeping fit is the way of life because you don't want to end up vomiting under the heat and getting drowsy along way.

Enough said! And I'm thinking, the title has got nothing what so ever to do with the rest of this post. LOL!

Tongue Twister!

Try closing your lips and touch your tongue to the upper wall of your mouth and try pronouncing some words. And also, closing your lips and lay your tongue flat and try pronouncing some words again.It's hilarious and try not to get your tongue twisted alright!

The whole ordeal lasted close to 3 hours of making things sound right and perfect. The worse part was when I was asked to spell. On automatic, I started to panic and forgotten almost everything I've picked up earlier but I managed a few seconds later. I also got the inkling that the China man likes to pick on me maybe because I look enthusiast plus blur most of the time.

In short, it went well and I enjoyed it very much. By far, it's the most difficult thing I've ever learnt to speak!

Slow Progress

Oyy! It's already February. January ends way too fast and I haven't been able to do much since Monday. I'm burning up and only fluids will help. I'm seeing a lot of clicks since I last checked this blog on Tuesday. That sounds promising. Will write up more soon!

Peeps,try to stay out of fever, flue and cough this month okay! With the unpredictable weather going all over the world including KL, it really sucks to be sick this February!

Scuba Diving anyone?!

I've been dying to go for PADI licensing since like what 2006/2007. I got in touch with an old yoya mate so she introduce me to Borneo Turtle Divers.Pretty cool eh, lady diver! Yay..that's the way to go!

I'll be planning a scuba trip sometime this year and for those who are interested do let me know.We are not planning to go to Mabul island (located close to Sipadan) although it's pretty darn tempting to make that as the 1st scuba dive choice. Perhaps, we'll just stick to a lower budget for area around the east coast.

Expect to take a week off from work, a budget around RM1500++ and yes, some basic in swimming of course. Hehe.

I wonder if Dave Deden is still blog hopping and if you are still checking out this blog, care to fly down to Malaysia and dive along? Haha..I'm not too sure if this is a really serious invitition from myself either.

Anyone who is interested for scuba diving, PM me!

Recipe for Disaster ...this is Sickness!

"Recipe for Disaster ...this is Sickness!". That's a verbatim taken from a budding young entreprenuer totally distressed due to bad traffic. You see, any normal person will not come close to uttering words like that. It's a perfect stereotype for a person who does too much combat games and sci-fi movies.

Hail it out. Hail it out loud when you are frustrated and mad. Hail," This is a Recipe for Disaster! Bloody Sickness! Over and out!"

Wise Men Say ...

A conversation with a couple of old friends gave me points to reflect on. Such as these the very words from the Wise Men:

Must see the glass half full.

U know what the Germans always say,"Better to be someone in a small world rather than no one in a big space".

Pack masss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...(counter part aku ajar...ala2 cam gambatte la...)

Its always in your thought,set the frequency,then u will get the new one. (* meaning getting what you want in life)

It's good to know some old friends can still keep you motivated and on the right track no matter that the last conversation we ever had were like years ago. Good friends are definitely for keep people!

Going crazy with motivational books!

Try doing this all in one go :
Finish up reading The Secret and Why We Want You to Be Rich and you will see so much effect and good energy coming inside you. The best part is you get to influence the people near you with all the positive vibes that you unintentionally emit.

Little surprises yet extra happiness!

I never expected to get a 20 seconds serenade from a super kawaii child actor. I'm telling you he is SUPER KAWAII Plus HAWT!

I never expected to get a call half way across the world from someone so familiar with an ULTRA SEX-ZY Voice!!

I never expected to get another long distance call from the guy who said ,"I don't like competition..." who is ever so charming, sweet and most importantly crazily funny!

I never expected to get a lovely chocolate delight from someone whom I just talked to like less than 10 times!

I never expected the lovely Chicas to drag me shopping for my own gift with a super huge budget which was extravagantly awesome!

I never expected to drool over the cute camera guy at the wedding!

Wow...life IS full of little surprises and imagine the amount of happiness each one of them give to you! Enjoy life's little surprises, people! You never know what you will get at the end of the day!

Satria Neo!

Eh, did you all know about Suzy Corner at Ampang? Syok wor that place. Can seriously go pigging and the food is not bad too. Anyhow, we were there makaning as usual after getting into an ultra hot ride !! For a Malaysian make, it's considered the topper of it's kind.

I just have an overwhelming craziness over Satria Neo. I was thinking, it's so going to be hot and very chic if I can cruise and go for a hell of a ride with it. Damn, it's going to be AWESOME!

Tell me something, what is your ideal getaway holiday?

Hanging out with the girls were nothing but sheer joy, laughter like unmanageable bunch of 'young' girls and of course, MADNESS! So we got down talking and munching at Chillies, trying to look cool and act like a bunch of " I don't give a damn on what you going to think about us", sitting there for hours on the high chair next to the bar.

Among many of the conversations, oops rephrase, among the many non-stop re-make of childhood dramas and current job loathing , we talked about holidays.

Some of them had never been outside of Malaysia for holidays. Hence, they were crying pathetically to themselves and one practically almost forcing all of us for a group, girls only holiday by next year. I count myself out of that as for now. Hehe.

Okay, heck, let's get to the point. There were three ideal getaway holidays being barked at us from three gorgeous girls. There are:

1. " My idea for a holiday is to go there and shop shop shop and shop. AND you have to drag some boys along too so that they can carry all your bags for you." Did I remember her mentioning, you should drag a boy along so that he can pay all the shopping for you?..Apparently, NO! She didn't mention that. Hehe. Dang, the drama is so lacking here people!

2. "I've never really been to a holiday outside of Malaysia before. I would love to go on those backpacking thing and don't bother about how many stars the hotels will be. Twinkle twinkle little star will just do for me!" * and some crazy streak of laughter along with it.

3. It involves staying in a hut down in Cambodia, listening to people next door shagging and going through a shoulder high 'lalang' because apparently it is suppose to be adventurous! Hehe...

2 minutes Recipes!

For the love of food and cooking, hence, yours truly were caught talking about exchanging cooking ideas and recipes with friends during the seemingly constant break time during work. I've managed to vaguely remember the recipes of two dishes. There are Lemon Fish Fillet and Butter Prawns.

Lemon Fish Fillet
* recipe is courtesy of Ah Yong aka Pek Yong

Ingredients:

Fish fillets
Sour plum ( the one sold in the jar)
Lemon juice ( he mentioned something about using just the right amount of juice, no more than the whole lemon because it'll turn the whole dish to too lemony)
Some chopped onions
Chillies ( I think?!)

Firstly, I guess you have to either deep fry the fish fillet or pan fry them. I don't suppose you can just cook the fillets into the sauce or perhaps you just can do that. Just don't stir the fish around too much so that it won't crumble into pieces.

Then, make the sauce. Chuck in everything, the sour plum, lemon juice,onions,chillies, sugar and salt for taste. If you think it tastes like a typical lemon fish you've eaten in the restaurant before, then give yourself a pat at the back and wallop the food nicely!

Butter Prawns
* recipe is courtesy of Navvie

Ingredients:

Some nice huge, fresh prawns marinated with salt,pepper, herbs if you like
Some flour
Unsalted butter
Chillies

Firstly, you need to coat those marinated prawns with flour and deep fry them. Then come the sauce. Melt the butter, add some salt and pepper for taste, add some milk or cream and make sure you don't burn the butter with high fire and when the sauce is cooked, pour them all onto the fried prawns and garnish with chopped red chillies and coriander. It should taste superb!

Probably some of you should give these recipes a go first because honestly, I haven't put my hands down and dirty with any of these recipes. Hehe. Good luck! Happy Cooking and Happy Eating!
