No, I didn’t go to Langkawi.
A friend went there a few weeks ago and so kindly let me tumpang order some sinful stuff from there and this is what I got:
My chocolates stash
That’s like almost RM50 worth of chocolates!!
And yes, I have to pay for it. Can’t expect my friend to give it to me for free mah. Hmmm..even though it’s because of me that he got to go to Langkawi… and stayed in Sheraton some more, no less. And pigged himself the whole time he was there too. And it was all paid for by some other people!
Not that I wished I went. Shucks. No fun to go to Langkawi on serious business trip. Preferred to go on holiday with family. I’ve not always been one to yearn for freebies especially when those freebies have strings, no, make that,thick unrelenting ropes, attached.
I’ve better things to do. Don’t want to owe anyone anything and dammit if I’m gonna feel obligated to someone over something because of some stupid freebie.
So, in light of all those juicy reading material in the blogosphere (go here for one of the absolutely entertaining, almost like a chick lit novel, stories) and in the news, let me break out my stash and do some major face-stuffing as I wade through all those sluttery, err…I mean, news.
M & Ms
Not that those news depresses me or anything.
Heck, reading novels never depress me and reading all that crap is akin to reading some latest trashy novel. Perhaps even better. Hmmm…perhaps, someone should really consider thinking about chronicling it all into a book and sell it. Sure bestseller material lar. Can strike it rich dat way.
Hmmm..wonder if they’d mind if I do that instead since nobody seemed interested.
Hah. Foong the bestselling author of ‘Sex and blogging in the city’.
Eat your hearts out, Nora Roberts and Sophie Kinsella and the rest of you chic lit authors. Here comes Foong with her very real novel on real sex scandals being aired publicly in the blogosphere. Except that she’s gonna label it as fiction. And change the names. You know, Tif instead of Tuna, Stoopit instead of Salmon, Conman instead of Coconuts. That sorta thing. And add a disclaimer that all characters in the book are purely fictitious and does not exist.
Yep. Definitely worth thinking. Now, lemme find the time to fit in novel-authoring in my already packed schedule…
I can hear my darlings M & M and Kit Kat calling me now. GTG. They need me. Real bad.

How would you like to hide inside the broom cupboard during closing time and let them lock you inside the shop for the night?
