The Demise. The Goodbye.

This blog means everything to her. It represents her. One's claiming it shouts her character. She'd want to keep taking a crap here as long as she could but things got wonky.
(Someone please sing a dirge ^_^)
Wow... 3 funky years of blogging here freely without any consequences and whatsoever. Just her and her crap. So yeah thanks for putting up with her crap throughout these years.

Breakfast @ Rae's

God must be pissed with Singapore today.
Thunders rocked her up during such ungodly hour hey. *Whines*
It's her day off today.
Awake, she pondered what to say.
Hence this odd ass show-and-tell.



 Made herself a wholesome brekkie. Wow, that's the first time she whipped a meal up after god-knows-for-how-long. Only @ Rae's milk's served in a wineglass (broke the mug few days before ok...)

 After brekkie snack was these wasabi crackers that send her to hell and back (caution: may cause death from suffocation)


Lastly, which has totally nothing related to whatever she's crapping here, just wanna show off. Wahaha, best buy of the week: photo above @ 60% discount off. Boahahahahahahaha! (Shhh.... don't tell my mom).

On a lighter side, super dodo shared an interesting article about the LACK OF AWARENESS OVER RUBBER SIZE. Thought sharing this with you love on this gloomy morning. Ah.... no more thunders... bed beckons. You guys have a good day ahead.

It's Mushu too, mkay?

She's bounced back. Can't stay harping on shit like that. (Her friend is right, she's effing resilient...).

On a (very) light note, super dodo Ken dished out a comment on her dragon ink that floored Rae while on the way to the Dubliner just the other night. Can't really remember what he said but it went on something like this, "eh, your cicak looks like Mushu y'know. You know Mushu from Mulan?"

WTFBBQSAUCE!!!

Good Things Don't Last Forever

Was doing the usual blog-hopping and good god, the impact of a blogger's post about her dog dying was so freaking sudden that tears started streaming down without Rae's mind fully digesting the fact.

Daddy took the cone off you cos he thought you’d be more comfortable without it.And you seemed like you were suffering.But after it got taken off, you just had to scratch more at your ear and now it’s bleeding again.It just won’t fucking heal.I’m pissed off and upset.
No, i’m not pissed off at you…
“I think we have to accept that maybe it’s time for us to say bye to him,” said Daddy calmly in the kitchen.I looked outside into the garden.
Which wasn’t much to see because its dark outside.
A month ago i was in denial that it was time for you to be put to sleep. So I made you go to the vet a few times.Sometimes you seem like you’re getting better, and you look at me with the same eyes that remind me of when you were young - bright and alert.Then sometimes you would whine for hours even though you’d eaten and i didn’t know what was wrong.
A few days ago you wouldn’t get up.You wouldn’t drink water even though i held it to you.You wouldn’t eat either. The squirrels keep on taking your food.I tried holding you to stand up but you just slouched back down the moment i let go.
To let go… every time i think of letting you go, my mind just goes, “Cannot cannot cannot, i cannot.”I was stubborn that it wasn’t your time yet. Even when Mummy suggested it, i didn’t listen, remembering what
Cynthia mentioned, “Is he still eating? Does he still wag his tail? Then it’s not his time yet.”
And you were then, so i thought, “Okay good, you’re still fine and it’s okay and it’ll be okay…”
Now you’re not really doing both.And i remember what Cynthia said.
…
I can’t even write anymore.

Rae fully understands what the blogger's going through now. It's one of the toughest things one could go through. Rae's babe, Milo's not in his best condition. He's used to be her big fatty Milo. Now, he's shrunken and his fur's getting thinner and she swears there's wrinkles on his eyes (dogs don't have wrinkles hey!). But mom said he's more active than ever and eats a lot. So that's good right? But one can never be too careful. She wished she's back home beside him.

Why did God make them live such a short life? What's up with that!? God, why did You make it this way?
She herself was in denial and in perpetual numb when her first family dog, Snoopy, died few years ago. The food had no taste to it, music carried neither tune nor meaning. No reasons to smile or laugh. Life seemed empty. When she finally faced the reality she was so fucking pissed off with herself for not doing anything to ease his pain, instead letting him suffer even more. Things came back to her. How he wouldn't eat or drink. He couldn't stand and walk. He didn't wag his fluffy tail anymore. And how he looked her into her eyes with those eyes saying 'please let me go'.
It took her a couple of years to get another babe. The first time she saw him at the local petshop, she fell in love with him. She was unsure if she's able to do it again so she left. She told herself that if that babe's not taken within 2 weeks, they belong to each other. Indeed, they belonged to each other. Mom asked her if she's ready to let go when the time babe leaves to God's due, she answered yes, it's worth it and she can assure the babe's gonna have the best years of his life being with her. Mom gave the green light and Milo became the youngest boy in Chang family that day. Remembered how bad he chucked due to motion sickness (that babe's got motion sickness!) the moment they reached home that day, It felt like he's holding his chuck so that he'd not dirty her car. Remembered how happy he was when she let him run amok at the field across their house. He was so inquisitive about everything out there. Major sniffing sessions and chasing cats and birds. Good times. Remembered how he'd wait for her to go for long walks and when Mr. Chang wanted to walk him, he'd be so reluctant that Mr. Chang had to use a bit of force to get his arse moving. Milo kept looking back at Rae with those gorgeous doeful eyes saying 'I wanna go with you!"
Yeah, she really misses Milo. Heaps.

Her Sanctuary, Her Solace

Her new place is amazing. She's still digesting the fact that she's just 2 minutes away from Clarke Quay. No more long cab rides after clubbing that cost her a bomb. More sleep in hours. Get to pump the irons to get that body back. Get to waste away by that pool... bliss. Total bliss.
Gonna pop by the gym to do some damage control to the body. Then back to old place to retrieve the rest of the stuff. She's got so much stuff... too much stuff. Was freaking out a bit earlier when packing. Was so relieved (& proud) that she managed to pull a solo stunt on this moving thingamajiq. *Phew*
Yup... life is good.

Good Shit

Now peeps... what Rae's about shout now is of serious good listening.
Introducing Shing02 and Nujabes.
Shing02

Nujabes

Stumbled across them when she's watching Samurai Champloo 3-4 years ago. Yeap, she and the boys knew one another way way back then.

Shing02 is a rap activist, peace advocate and inventor. Born in Tokyo 1975, raised in Tanzania, England, and Japan. Shing02 landed in SF Bay Area in '89 after the quake at the age of 15. After a move to Berkeley for schooling in '93 he became immersed in the local hip-hop scene that launched dozens of acts worldwide. Initially he used his art skills to get acquainted with the budding East Bay scene. In '96 Shing02's music made its way back to Japan, then partnered with Mr. Higo of Mary Joy Recordings, garnering tremendous support in his homeland. Now residing in Oakland, he's working on music with his new collective "Freelancers Utd", futuristic jazz trio "Kosmic Renaissance", and as 1/2 of production crew "The Knocks (of CA)" with Doc Max. He is currently working on a new Japanese LP while collaborating with various artists

Nujabes (Jun Seba) is the owner of the "tribe" record shop in Shibuya, Tokyo and also runs his own independent record label, Hyde Out Productions. Known popularly for his participation with the soundtrack to "Samurai Champloo"; an anime series released in 2004.

Ok ok so Rae cheated the intro by 'cut & paste' from their respective sites... hah... still, they are worth listening to yeah. Rae especially loves Aruarian Dance & Luv(Sic). Ah well... can't really think right now.

Rae the Metal Cock (Erm... Rooster)

Rae's Good Traits: forthright, brave, enthusiastic, loyal, hardworking, tenacious, resilient, adventurous, meticulous, prompt, astute, well-dressed, proficient, down-to-earth, gregarious, communicative, sensible, generous, charming, ebullient and terminally witty

Rae's Badass Traits: cranky, fussy, vain, self-involved, blindly egotistical, over-zealous, pretentious, materialistic, grabby, high-handed, cynical, mercurial, self-absorbed and quixotic as hell

Rae the Metal Rooster: She can come off as arrogant and stuck up at times. She needs a cushion for that overextended ego and someone to make sure it stays inflated. She is reasonable, who seem to analyze every decision she makes and every situation she finds herself in. She is standoffish at times and can let her aggression get in the way of a blossoming friendship or romance. She should take a breather from her ego long enough to really enjoy what she has to offer.

One fine example how vain a metal rooster can be... oh... another Kate Moss Loves Topshop number. Ah yes... an update... Rae's been transfered to another store and a Topshop store is just a couple minutes' walk away.

Striped and Stripped

Ok so I might have gone over the top with the stripes but don’t you think the dress is gorgeous (Kate Moss Loves Topshop collection)? I’d definitely buy it if I was 4 inches taller, 10 pounds lighter, hips 3 inches narrower and $300 richer. Really like the horizontals. Hmm… the more I look at the picture I realised the verticals somehow made my body looked wonky hey…
The salesgirl was trying to hide her glee when I picked that dress to try on… either she’s thinking I’m a potential big buyer (totally understand how she feels as moi is in the same industry) or she’s thinking this chick’s gotta be kidding to try on that horrendous frock.
Today’s impromptu visit to Strip was rather pleasant (& somewhat er… coughsensuouscough). Wasn’t as painful as the last one. Gotta go at the right day and right time. Quite like the therapist as she didn’t talk much (yeah well prefers the ‘strip, wax and bye’ any time of the day). Eva Longoria claimed she felt like Angelina Jolie after wax. Amen to that.

A: she was cleaning my teeth, saying how beautiful they were. then was talking about my wisdom teeth because my wisdom teeth might need to be pulled and she's like "You don't have to worry though, since the Arc in your mouth is so long"
A: then she goes "It's natural for you to be long everywhere ;)"

Yeah Baby, Reach for Those

Question of the day:
What would you reach for to gain balance when the train you're on jerks suddenly?

Typical Answers:
1. The pole
2. That dangling plastic triangle thingamajiq (Heck, I seriously don't know what that thing's called)
3. Friend's shoulder
4. Friend's shirt

Yeah, well, Ms. Chang did the (unthinkable) classic: she reached for the friend's balls. No kidding. That wtf look on his face: PRICELESS.
