Post-Birthday Post
What better way to commemorate the birth of a [insert good and bad description] lass than to post a blog entry documentating the funnier side of me? Literally. In no way are these events going to be written in any chronological, sensical, psychological, mathematical order, do you copy? =P Despite random inane stuffs happening to me, I’d still wish that by the time I publish this post, I’d be resurrected into a new, happier me. So let’s begin. =P ***** 1) Because of routined behaviour, people seldom pay attention to minute details concerning mundane affairs. I’ve been rather used to refilling lukewarm water from the water dispenser by using a tumbler with a big mouth. If anyone noticed, the nozzles spraying hot water and icy cold water, are of a little distance from each other.
So like what you’ve read and guessed [for readers who skip entries!], I had to use the normal mineral water bottle to refill water once. The mouth was too small to fit both nozzles, so by the time I pressed on the hot water nozzle, I scalded myself. Talk about stupidity having no cure. Ahem.

2) Once I was serving a guest some plain water, but because the water in the flask ran out, I had to pour some from the kettle. Mine’s a whistling kettle, hence at the spout there’s a little hole for it to whistle when the water is boiling.
After checking that the kettle is cool, I tried to pour out some water from it, but I just couldn’t. Despite the fact that help was verbally given, like "you have to open the cover!", I still made a huge blunder! I opened the lid of the kettle, thinking about the Science fact that you have to have at least 2 holes for water to come out from a concealed container.
After a long while, I finally manage to get the idea that I should lift the spout lid. -.-"

3) I’m the girl who hurt her knee because her mind was asleep when she stood up from her sleep. It all happened when I was online chatting with some peeps via MSN, I walked away from my lappie to nap on the hall’s sofa as the eyelids felt absolutely heavy. I didn’t notify anyone that I was going away, and my mobile phone was with my laptop. The house phone rang, and before I knew it, I woke up and dashed towards the phone. And fell. =(

4) Several years ago [actually not that long ago, but I'm trying to make it sound like the incident happened when I was way too young for common sense, heh], I was engaging in this little chat with my poly mates. The bulk of us were 20 years old that year, so during one crappy chatting session, we talked about watching R(A) movies.
Honestly I don’t see the rationale in being so "excited" over the fact that we can finally watch R(A) flicks, but heck, let’s just move on. =P
Without thinking logically, I told my friends that I’ll bring my 2 nephews along to the theatre to somehow prove that I was over 21 by pretending that those were my kids. Maybe you’ll ask how they are able to know I’m 21 just by bringing my 2 kids, for all they know, I might just be a young mum?!
BUT HEY, read carefully! It doesn’t matter whether I’m a young mum or whatsoever. My kids will definitely not be over 21, right? NOW you get it? Hahaha!

5) Very often, I’ll hurt myself without being extra careless. I was at CPF Board when this incident happened. I stapled a stack of papers twice, both front and back as it was rather thick.
Seeing that the sharp ends of the staple bullet was protruding out, I used the staple to press them down. Was utilising the strength of my left index finger to press the end of the staple down, while I visualise scantly the worst scenario.
I sort of predicted what could happen, and within split seconds, it really did happen. The staple slid, and the sharp ends of the bullet impaled my vulnerable left index finger. Frankly, anyone would have their pupils dilated to the max upon seeing such a ’scene’, but I couldn’t feel anything at all.
Lucky for me, I had my dear colleague, Daphne, to dress my wounds.

6) Now that streaming music [either on your blog, or via winamp and shoutcast] is illegal, memories of deejaying from the Iguanamobile server are not gonna be relived.
I was cyber-deejaying once, and I said a lot of things on air, but minutes later, I realise that my mic wasn’t on, and I had wasted my breath. -.-"

7) Usually wearing skirts mean it is easier to relieve yourself in the Ladies should the call of nature be urgent, since it’s all about lifting the cloth up. However, the blur me chose to unzip instead. Do extra for what?!
*****
I have this tendency to blow at my food to cool them, regardless of whether it is really that hot or not. But this habit of mine always surface even when I’m having cold desserts, like ice kacang. This is a stupid habit. Now stop laughing. =P
