Do You Know What Is Your Preference?

Okie...enough of forwarded mails..time to write something genuine this time :) Sorry..Just too busy with loads of stuff all around me..Arrghhh!!

One small thing I would like to share here is about 'people' & 'anything' . At times or even most of the time we meet people who likes to say 'anything' when you asked them what they want... A simple example would be....

Which colour do u think is nicer? 'anything'

What do you want to eat? 'anything'

What movie shall we watch? 'anything' again!!! and many more.....

Does these few questions & answers enough to sound familiar to you? :) I think it is common...Poor thing to 'anything' for always being abused on its usage...WHY do I say so??

Well, as you may realise or may want to start observing, you may come across people who don't mean to be anything when they claim to say 'anything' . Not sure what I am saying? Here's two examples...

Miss A: Which colour do u think is nicer?
Miss B: 'anything'
Miss A: Okie..lets pick yellow !
Miss B: Yellow nice meh?!
Miss A: :S i thought u said 'anything'


Mr. A: What do you want to eat?
Mr. B: 'anything'
Mr. A: Let's go MAMAK
Mr. B: Huh?? Mamak again?
Mr. A: :S i thought u said 'anything'

This is what I mean abusing 'anything' ...It is kinda frustrating to have more and more of this people..So..let's stop this..If you want to use , mean it. Else, ask back yourself, WHAT IS MY PREFERENCE? ....ask this before giving an answer....

Hehe...Hope I have all my abusers of 'anything' to read this NOW!

Small Win to Celebrate

Finn woke me up this morning instead of me doing so for him. He has been waking up feeling lousy and would whine non stop during school days..he would not stop until I started scolding him. Last night I prep him and put him to bed earlier than keith (rather than waiting for Keith to pack his bags). I managed to pat him and he slept at 10.15pm (not early but it seems enough). Right before he sleeps, I asked him to promise not to whine when he wakes up and he did well. He woke me up instead. He came to me and said, mommy….i want to wake up already….

Mini Lobsters I ate in Shanghai!

My job required me to travel very frequently to Shanghai last year. Somewhere during the 2nd half of the year, mini lobster has become our favorite. We will walk all the way to the stores and order few kilos of the fried mini lobsters each time. Recently, I received an email from a friend of mine reminding the danger of eating this mini creature! Please be alert of this food item... It may infect your lung. Do not eat these mini lobsters.These mini crustaceans are literally the garbage cleaners in the sewage treatment plants. The 'dirtier' the water, the fatter these mini lobsters become.Their lungs are full of worms and their flesh saturated with poisonous metals.Unscrupulous merchants somehow found a way to get these marketed to eateries. Do not order this dish. Pass this to those friends who may want to try these mini 'lobsters'. Even with this email, i think it is still worth it to try coz it is niceeee!!! And you do not get to eat them all year long! A kilo of thi
