Mandy's Lunch or Tea?

Not forgetting my best buddy stuck at home without food the whole day, I decided to "bungkus" some food for her....Guess what???



2 FRIED CHICKENS & 1 FISH FILLET!

Sunday Fruits Fiesta

After we left Gurney Plaza, headed straight for Queensbay Mall, Bayan Lepas to do some marketing.

Below are the things I bought for tonight's "Fruits Fiesta":

Grapes....

Bananas....

Tiramisu Twist

&

Mango Mania

Also, not to forget the durians sitting inside the fridge ready to be attacked tonight! Yippee!!!

Breakfast at A&W

Mandy drop dead this morning, decided to let her have some good sleep instead. I joined my friends out for some breakfast, remembering to leave a note for Mandy before I left the house.

It was drizzling when we arrived in town. Decided to turn into Gurney Plaza for our breakfasts.

Chosen to have our meals at A&W.

2-sets of Combo + 1 Ala-carte cost us a total of RM28.25. Thank you, Nisah! ;-)

Ooppsss...2 burgers are missing!

This is my Chicken Sandwich.

After meal....what a mess! Wuahaha....

Mandy, The Midnight Owl


It has now come to my attention that currently Mandy is having some serious problem sleeping at night. She seems not able to sleep a blink during the night and ended up looking tired for morning classes. I would have taken a picture of her "panda eyes" and publish here now on the spot if not worry of her killing me later on.

Anyway, she has been having sleepless night for the last whole week earning her the nickname "Midnight Owl"! At times, she will even wake me up in the middle of the night to accompany her...but not often lah...I tried my very best to force myself to be wide awake and pay attention to Mandy's conversation, but sorry Manbuddy, I did my best. I felt into a coma as soon as my head touches my pillow...hahaha....without me gaining conscious, Mandy will crawl back to her room and God knows what she did...(ohhh, yeah! she did mention that she blogged her way til morning) :P

Exactly like an owl, she will only fall asleep in the morning (4-5am) and nobody could wake her up, no matter what happen.

Anybody who has a remedy to cure our Manbuddy, please let us know ASAP before she drop dead in class. Our lecturer is now giving her a hard time becoz he has realised that Mandy is not paying attention in class, and at times, even went MIA (Missing In Action). :S

Man, what happen to you?.....

'Ginny' in the handphone

Mandy realised she hasn't been telling tales for quite some time. So Mandy is here tonight, gossiping a little about our friends...

I'll make it short as want to get some sleep tonight. We got class tomorrow, anticipating the Monday Blues =_=

Not long ago, there's something rather interesting happened in our college and coincidently the victim was one of our weekly classmate (we combine class for a particular subject once a week), Ginny. Ginny is a very normal looking girl but she slept with, like ALL the guys in our college. She could get almost any guy because of her 'warm' and 'easy going' personality. Yes, we study in a crocodile territory.

Ginny and us are ok friends because we are not bothered about her easy going personality. I believe those who like us will not be interested in Ginny. And those who like Candy will not fall for me and vice versa. We have different targets and markets. Sorry, no cat fights in this story >:)

Ginny will usually brag about her courtship with guys and that she never made a first move. Bad liar isn't she? We're ok with it but we admit we are pretty curious on what she would do or say to bring those guys onto bed, LOL. She's just a lady alligator.

Ginny fancied a guy Ken who happens to be our classmate and almost did what she could to win Ken. She was a little unfortunate this time because Ken, is not a sex maniac and somewhat close to us >:) Yes, we get first hand news! We often interview Ken about Ginny and were surprised what she could do to trap him.

One day, Ken came to us and played a voice recording file on his handphone, just to end our curiosity towards Ginny's so called "tactics". The voice was Ginny:

She confessed how she fell in love with Ken, how her body sweat whenever she sees Ken. Wow, I thought I was crazy when my palms sweat everytime I smile to the guy who looks like H, but this girl's whole body sweat -_-'' She also sat behind Ken in purpose, just to smell his perfume blended with sweat and hair regardless if he did or didn't wash his hair.

She enjoys peeping at his underwear because Ken likes baggy fashion, followed him home cause she wants to know where he stays, pretends to pick a pen in front of him when she intends to show her cleavage and panties :D~ Good for you, I told Ken. Unfortunately Ken didn't realise. What a waste or maybe he was playing dumb? Who knows.

The recording went on when she sang Ken a song by Christina Aguilera "Ginnie in a bottle" x_x Ken described himself shivering and almost shit on his pants; it's hillarious but I can imagine that. I suggest that he send the singing part to Malaysian Idol >:)

Maybe it was supposed to be something sexy for a guy but I don't really get it, same goes to Candy and Ken. Maybe Ken is gay? LOL... Anyway, I've added 10 marks to Ken and I would like to reserve Ken for Candy >:) kikiki...

Breakfast at 5


Woke up so late today, 5pm out of hunger... Yes, 5. I can't wait for myself to clean up, dress up, make up and join Candy and friends for dinner. So I made an express breakfast/lunch/tea for myself to tahan a while before joining them for dinner.
I can't sleep last night. Maybe too much of durian, heaty. I felt that the aircond was out or order but Candy said it was fine. I didn't believe her because she is not used to sleeping in an air condioning room, while I can't sleep without air conditioner.

Candy got back to her room and went on coma.. zzZzZZzzz...

I was tired but I really can't sleep. I thought by drinking another glass of warm milk should knock myself out >: ) but NO. I even felt hotter. I took a ladder climbed up to the aircond and took out the filter... @_@ No wonder I'm hot...

Patiently I cleaned the filters and the time was 3am O_o! Drying the filters took me another 20 mins. So I kept on telling tales in our blog to kill boredom.

As a result of oversleep, I can't sleep now... =_= Help~

Last Meal of the Day


How many meals do you take a day? 3? What about the most important meal, Supper?

Health magazines often tell us not to eat after 9pm due to many health reasons but could you resist Fried Chicken and Fish Balls?

Obviously, I can't >:)

The fish balls and fried chicken stalls near our house is just...




Klick on the Bun and get a Honda

After the Mini Bun attempt, Klick has finally taken an action to break up with Bun. He didn't asked me for my opinion, he told me he ended the crazy relationship. "You're the man" I said. The first thing he wanted to do was to take me out for a luxurious dinner celebrating his freedom and for my neverending support throughout his days in hell. Wow, what a language..

Klick: "Let's order your schubert cabernet sauvignon 99 tonight!"

WAHAHAHA! I thought....

I know nuts about wine but this is an acceptionally fine wine that I've ever tasted, that's why I remember the name >:) Klick picked me at 8. I have not seen him for more than a year, he drove a new Honda Civic. I thought, wow he must have had a few pay raise because he's not from a wealthy family though he is now a professional but still paying his study loan. Apart from his car, Klick has put on at least 8-10 pounds (abt 20kg) He used to be thin guy. I was astonished but still happy to see him again.

On our way to dinner, he suspected a car tailing us and the speed was increasing. The car was not familiar so he thought he was just being paranoid due to the long term torture by Bun. Out of suspicious he purposely took a wrong turning into a small lane where there's only a dead end. Unfortunately the car followed us and when we managed to make a 3-point-turn, the unfamiliar car came face to face and *JENG* she was BUN!!

"Klick, please... I'm scared, is Bun gonna slap me, pull my hair, sit on me and crack my bones O_o! because she cannot understand explanation? She must have thought I'm the new girlfriend, ow I'm barely even your ex! Any god out there pls help! I'm a free thinker." He laughed silently, kept on driving and patted on my head twice. I didn't know what that means but I can't jump off the car, right?

He took out his mobile phone, called Bun, set to speaker mode so that I could witness that his balls are still in place, LOL. The first time I heard Bun.. she shouted like a lunatic who's just gone coo-coo: "Klick are you serious?! How could you do this to me?! Is she the one with the special ringtone and birthday reminder?" Klick said "Yes" (Vat??!!) O_o!! Me? special ringtone? This idiotic Klick must have used me as an excuse! I so wanted to tell her that I was not the one but looking at our # yrs friendship and the sake of his balls, oklah I pretend for a while lah.

I pinched Klick so hard while I told Bun "Isn't this too obvious to ask? I'm Mandy and if you don't mind please join us for dinner." She said "Klick, remember you promised your car.." --> hung up and sent Klick 1000000000000 text msgs instead. I simply asked if the car was hers and YES, it was a present for their coo-coo anniversary and that Klick promised to marry her so she bought the car for him O_o!!!! And I really thought he had the balls to walk out of the Bakery (Bun's luxury).

We turned into the restaurant, pretended we parked, waited for Bun to leave. He appologized and insisted that we go for the dinner but I lost my appetite and I almost peed on my dress, what do u think? I was surprised I could even talk to Bun like that. It's become so dangerous meeting an old friend and I can't take such surprises anymore, I'm a peaceful person. I demanded that he drove me home. Candy looked at me: "Candy I'm hungry, let's go for tom yum steamboat and I'll tell you why I look like shit"

I don't know if he'd eventually return to Bun or what, I don't give a shit. Still think I should help Klick? He just can't give up the life that he has now and think he can just put any of his friends life in danger. I'm gonna ignore him and let him rot.

Durian Durian, anyone?


i LOVE durian to this extend >: ) Home made durian desert / ice cream or whatever u wanna name it, as long as it's made of DURIAN, I'm fine with it. As u can see the ingredients are as above and the following steps are infact, self explanatory >:)





Add MILK :D


*Blend* Lick fork
Freezer



DONE




m(=^_^=)m



Chippy



I noticed alot of birds hanging around this area especially early in the morning and evening, so one day I've decided to feed them and name them Chippy >:)

I went to a birdshop / petshop nearby and got to know from a group of retired uncles lepak'ing there, that the birds were actually known as Mahjong Bird ^_^

A big packet of bird food, RM2. Good enough to fill little Chippys' tummy for a month. I noticed they put on weight after afew weeks.. LOL.

It was not easy to snap a photo of them as they get startled so easily, even if it was just a small movement.

The Journey to a Great Friendship

Mandy and me seems quite inseparateable, at least in the view of our group of friends. They are always wondering if we ever did quarrel with each other, you know, about boys or even to the extend of who is more pretty. But, if they are to know what we have been through, I guess they would understand why we are such great buddies.

We were in high school together but we weren't mixing with the same group of friends. Anyway, she was always in a world of her own. No one seems to exist in her world, not even the teachers and the principal of the school. There was even a time when she was caught skipping class and her teacher end up making her sit in the middle of the field under the hot sun for the entire afternoon. That was the first time I really notice her. Well, I guess she has got the whole school's attention then...hahaha...I was thinking to myself then that this girl really had a serious attitude problem.

As if God has already make plans for us to meet. We joined the cheerleading team together when we were in Form 2. That's when we started having mutual conversations. Not really the best of friends but at least I have change my mind about her distinguish character. My best friend then, M was in the team as well. But gosh! She is TOTALLY tone deaf! And she has no sense of direction at all! Yet she loves to dance, so she insist of staying on with the team.

Mandy and me got along pretty well...we practise our routines together and participate in a number of competitions. Boy! Don't we had a hard time practising our splits and cartwheel. Hahaha....but it was all worth it end of the day. Me and Mandy even started skipping class together. Both of us were from different classes so we made plans to meet each other at a certain time to loiter in a empty classroom. We will then gossip like nobody's business til end of school day. You can imagine how bad our grades were, thanks to too much loitering and gossiping...hahaha...And when time to bring back our report cards? Oh-oh....Hmmm....no worries, we will transform ourselves into parents and signed the report cards on behalf of our parents. ;-)

My relationship with M started to drift apart soon after I found out that she is gossiping about me behind my back...what about? I wouldn't even want to mention it again. And she even have the guts to think that I have the intention of stealing her boyfriend away from her. So, the guy dump you, does that make me a criminal? I won't even go for her guy even if he is the last human on earth! And this is what you expect from a best friend. What a buddy she was then!

I started to ignore M after that and hang out with Mandy more often. We will go shopping together on weekends, dine together and gossip for hours on the phone til the phone bils rocketed sky high...hahaha...One thing I like being with Mandy is she always know when is the right time to speak up and when to leave me alone. She make it clear that if I feel like talking, she will always be there for me. I jus need to pick up the phone and dial the number...Oww...so sweet, isn't she? Thanks, Mandy - for standing by me during the bad times. :-)

Mandy was with me when I split-up with my first love. She is the only one who knows how heart broken I am. Without hesistation, she drive herself all the way to my house (bear in mind that we were living quite far away from each other back in our hometown). She was standing at my gate in no time. She sat with me without a word. Just by her present, she makes me feel that it was not the end of the world.

When I first decide to come study in Penang, I was quite reluctant. After all, I do not know anybody here and I take quite a while to warm up with people. Coming here alone is more like a nightmare to me. I expressed my concern to Mandy one night when she was sleeping over at my house. The next day, she called to inform me that she had manage to convince her parents to let her join me to come study in Penang. I could not thank her enough for being such a GREAT GREAT Buddy to me.

To be continue....

*Candy and Mandy's Kitchen*



Candy has decided to upgrade her COOKING.exe file when she announced our menu for dinner tonight in Facebook; "East Meets West"

Oh boy, do I know how to mix east and west ~_~

Luckily we have rented our own place now, so far away from Selina (Selina's background check: http://candyxmandy.blogspot.com/search/label/Tell%20Tales) and his father (our former Mr Landlord). We just love our little kitchen and that's why we get to play 'masak-masak' oh so often >:)

Okay, let me just briefly explain my East Meets West: Chicken Marinara. Where's my East and West? Hmm.. you see the green Chinese Broccoli, so it's considered the EAST while the rest are from WEST..

While Candy's thousand legged crabs, I'll let her do the explanation: "Hmmm....ok! Well, let me introduce to you my Thousand Legged Crabs. This is one of the homemade recipe passed down from my mum. As for where is the east and west part? For sure, I consider chillies as EAST while the crabs are from WEST. In addition, I know that Mandy is very fond of crabs, so this dish is specially dedicated to Mandy." - Candy

Thank you Canbuddy! >: ) You know what? The Crabs are indescribably delicious! Seriously can fight with Tambun seafoodlah... :D


Nice To See...Good To Sit!

A Role

How many times have you played a role of somebody in a lifetime? From a baby to daughter, friend, colleague, girlfriend, wife, mom, aunt, grandma, neighbour, stranger and whoever you could think of.

When a stranger becomes your friend; from a friend to shopping partner, drinking pal, smoking companion, good friend, buddy.. a beautiful cycle which sometimes does not only belong to a somebody.

You met a stranger one day; Stranger becomes your friend, activity partner, happily hopes that the next step is becoming the starring of your love story but you have a secret which cannot be revealed. Perhaps is the impact of chemical reaction, by all efforts you try to cover it, hide it and pretend not knowing it.

You suddenly feel reluctant when you realize this stranger has been too good to you; pretending not to know your secret when it was getting obvious. You won’t know when love starts to fade. As time goes by, stranger becomes less aggressive because of your drawback. Stranger left; still, you have chosen to protect your secret.

Beautiful cycles do not happen once a life time. It happens everywhere, all the time. One stranger after another walks in and out of your life, you are still holding on to your secret which is a weapon and also a first aid kit.

You recall strangers who ran out of a meeting because of you, quited a favorite sport, ran away from home, wakes you up every morning for class, broke off with a girlfriend, took you to the doctor when you’re sick, cook for you and make sure you swallow your medicine; but you missed the one who always took good care of you every time you were drunk, carried you to your bed and rub your forehead but never took advantage of you.

After a while, your stranger comes back but things weren’t the same anymore. The feeling, the communication, the look. You know your best companion after all, is still the little secret that is able to play any role beyond your imagination.

For a stranger who once enlightened somebody by sharing a story without mentioning anybody.
Realized nobody was mentioned? Guess who is this buddy writing this little story... Canbuddy or Manbuddy? >:)

Men's Best Friend

Further to Candy's posting on stray dogs being dumped in Pulau Ketam, I have a story to share >: ) (Yalah, I'm a Mat Kepolah, so many stories... right?) Anyway this is a true story brought here from my hometown.

To every one who owns a pet or who hasn’t, but planning to keep one, n for those who don’t know if he’ll own a pet one day.

10 yrs ago my neighbour moved away leaving a dog ‘Baby’. Baby wondered around our housing area for a week or two, waiting for its master to come back but it never happened; so I adopted Baby.

Another neighbour had a dog ‘Sweetie’. Sweetie had never been given proper food or hygiene n it’s always being tied up to a short chain without shelter. Who cares whether it is a rainy or sunny day?

Later, they moved away n left the poor dog. Sweetie waited in the house for many days. I fed her but it was useless, the dog's chosen not to eat and a neighbour found out Sweetie was dead one day. I believe dogs have feelings. Why do u think they are called the men’s best friend?

A new family moved into the vacant house n they had a dog ‘Pongo’. Pongo was a little fortunate than the other mentioned dogs. The dog was well trained n taken care of but when its master moved away, he was also being dumped in the house. I wanted to keep Pongo but it prefers to run around the neighbourhood so I only fed Pongo in the evening. I thought Pongo was gonna be another stray dog when the next family moves in, but an animal lover in the neighbourhood adopted Pongo. Pongo likes him I guess. I still see Pongo running across my house once a while, n sometimes pee at the side of my MPPP trash bin -_-!

A dog can be an animal, a pet, a friend, a companion. Even if we treat them so bad, dogs will never leave us. It is we, human, who’ve abandoned them. Animals have feelings, I’m surprised human don’t.

Pass the message, educate your kids, help to make everyone aware of what is happening. Neuter your pets. Animals are being abandoned everyday n the welfare societies are running out of funds to keep the animals.

The love of your life

Will you remember your dreams after you wake up? Last night, I dream of the love of my life, H. He was my classmate back in school. I have not seen him for a long time but he has a permenant special place in my heart because he was my first love.

In my dream, I saw H in a carpark, he was with a friend. He gave me his name card; it was ugly, colorful, like ah loong's name card. He's a little plump but still attractive like he was before. "How's life?" We asked each other at the same time, same nervous tone; we laughed, knowing that we are both okay. His friend interrupted our conversation and he had to leave. A short and sweet dream resulting a miserable day for me..

H was formerly from another state, transfered to my school, sat right behind of me. He'd ask me about anything in because he was a newbie. Then, we became good friends. Most of my girlfriends fell for him. Who wouldn't? He's charming, he's rich, top student, good looking and humble. He was nice to everybody.

My best friend, which I secretly called her "Water Bag" (because her tits look like 2 heavy bouncy water bags) was crazy about H. There was once we all lined up to buy nasi ayam in the canteen and Waterbag rubbed her boobs against H's back. I don't know if she did that on purpose but she certainly looks innocent. H's expression = scared and it shows he's no sex maniac. He said "Let me buy first, I'm goddamn hungry" >:)


Surprise! Not all men love huge boobs?? By the way, Waterbag's wearing cup C size 36/38. You'll love it!

Waterbag has decided to giv up our friendship and to GET H! I knew she liked H so wherever H and I went, I would bring Waterbag along, even when H only invited me alone. Though I liked H so much I was afraid he'd find out my feelings and ruin our friendship. I pretend to be cool, "good friends" and look into his eyes when I talked to him. When a girl likes you, she wouldn't dare to look into your eyes, try it! Waterbag began to feel that she has got chance to be with H. I didn't doubt that because H was nice to her as well. Waterbag bought the same sunglasses as H, the same handphone as H, Nokia something (I'm no NOKIA fan, I don't remember). H knew Waterbag was trying to get his attention. She would be angry at me whenever I talked to H, be it about studies or hobbies. Lama-lama, H became sarcastic when he talked to Waterbag. Unfortunately she didn't get it and thought H likes her. You know some guys talk nasty to you because they like you, but unfortunately.. She was full of hope while H felt the opposite.

Without realizing it everybody were talking about H and I because we were like living in our own world. He would accompany me wherever I go, drove me around like 'best friends'. Waterbag started to hate me, she thought I was in a courtship with H. It's not true, just that I didn't realize I fell in love with H and everything else just became unnoticeable.

One night Waterbag asked me out and told me it was the end of our 4years friendship. She was accompanied by another friend who was also a fan of H that equally hates me like Waterbag do. Both of them said I stole H away. =_= Since then we never talked again. H thought he should be there for me during the discussion with Waterbag... so touched :) He was right but I didn't know what to do. I just went out when they ask me to.

Time flies, I thought my dream guy didn't like me because I'm just TOO ordinary. He thought I was too cool to like him because I'm a person without much expression. Our graduation day came; the last day of school. I will be studying in Penang and he will be going to KL. We didn't even had a proper good bye conversation. I came to Penang, started a new life with a part-time work, full time college. Met new friends, met many guys, dated many of them but none of them could compare to H. He would text me sms once a while but still, nothing happened.

Then, I had my 1st boyfriend Big, a chinese speaking guy who's unable to order food from an English menu. I thought: So what if he couldn't speak English? As long as he can pay the bills, I'm ok... One day after 2 years, H called me, he's in Penang. He picked me up in his flashy little car. We went to a classy cafe and we were the only patrons, how romantic. He's still handsome and the best thing is, he definitely can order from an English menu! We talked nuts for the whole night and finally he asked if I have a boyfriend. Reluctantly I answered Yes. He looked like he was mad. He said "Oh, sure. How could a nice girl like you be single forever. If you're single I'd thought you had something wrong. Haha.." :-\ What the heck!

He waved at the waiter, complained that his coffee was bitter -_-''' They argued for a while and the manager came, finally he won. He was obviously throwing tantrums. What kinda monstor he's become, after 2yrs in KL? He finally drove me home like a mad cow and asked me "Am I that bad? Why wouldn't you accept me?"

I didn't have the guts to tell him that I love him and I'm willing to let go Big for him. He's so perfect I was afraid he's just gonna toy me. I totally have O% confidence. "You are a perfect guy. I would have said yes if I'm single." H: "What's so good about Big? He's no good for you! What's wrong with me?!" Padahalnya he doesn't know Big. I said "He has done nothing wrong. I cannot leave him". He thanked me for my time and that's the end.

He would text me an sms once a while, well wishes. I would reply him a mere thank you. After this H incident, I broke up with Big. "What and where actually went wrong?" Should I just main kayu tiga and said YES! to H?

I'm Mandy and if you suspect you are H... Yes, Mandy still loves you. Don't contact me, let me live.
