i dedicate this, my first proper post in a month, to my faithful readers who have taken the time and effort to surf here *everyday*... in futile search of a new post (for which i thank you). after surfing onto absolutely-fuzzy.com, i realised i owe all of you an explanation for my absence. i hope you will understand, but for reasons i can't reveal, i can only offer you this much... in the past

like my boy will tell you, introducing yourself as a cartoonist (hell, even as an artist!) gets people interested. you can say 'hi, im moe and im a roadsweeper' and have no one give you a second glance, but just try following that with '... and i cartoon in my free time' and watch how reactions change. matter of fact, when i met kai about one and a half years ago, he won my attention far better

astronews went live for the first time yesterday, after a few years of being pre-recorded a half hour before on-air transmission. after gaining all my experience in the live format during my years at ntv7, the whole pre-recorded thingamijiggy at astro felt rather strange at first, but over the months, i'd begun to get used to it... even appreciating the relief of being able to say 'cut!' after

yep, things have been getting rather dramatic at the lee household lately... complete with all the necessary elements needed for such drama like guns, police cars, flashing lights, panicked neighbours and the like. you catch my drift. some two weeks ago, an unidentified man turned up in our cul-de-sac, and decided to stand outside our house, brandishing a gun. our maid, alerted to his presence

my boy left on a jetplane tonight, back to new york, where he will steadily plod on with his economics degree for another year and a half. i havent stopped crying since. i know he must go, and that the sooner he goes, the sooner he'll return, degree in hand, and maybe... just maybe... with dreams of a future with me. im going to wait for him, regardless of the outcome, with a tiny little seed

i got off a plane from penang last night, airasia as a matter of fact, and who should i bump into at the exit? the airasia man himself, tony fernandes. i walked right past him at first, then realised, waitaminute... that man in that daggy old tshirt, faded jeans, crazy hair and tired smiley face looks wayyy too familiar. and so it was. i turned back, tapped him on the shoulder and said 'hey

too long a hiatus, yes. i agree. but here i am, making my thoughts public once more... if, that is, i still have any readers! ;) there is something about making private thoughts public. some should stay private, but this is difficult when you're torn between deciding what you want people to know and when you need people to listen. most of the time, i just need someone to listen to these

since my last entry, my love life's reminded me vaguely of the stockmarket. blame it on this constant exposure to business news and having to write KLCI summaries on a daily basis, but really... trading stagnated for a couple of days, then took a downturn, sliding southbound for 48 hours before flatlining again just above the previous close. uncertain conditions in the domestic economy kept

some people were born with straight hair for a reason. i'm one of them. which is why i should have known better than to ask my hairstylist for 'big round bouncy curls' at my appointment last sunday. see, there's this chick in my department at work with the most gorgeous hair. when she walks it's like a freakin' pantene advertisement. her hair, with its Big Round Bouncy Curls, just swishes and

one of the nicest things about working at my new place (irregardless of one miserable colleague who is happier being miserable) is that there is a culture of kindness. i called in ill today, after two weeks of nearly killing myself with stress. but despite being sick and having every reason to take this much-needed rest, i felt truly gawd-awfully guilty about it. first, because amir is on a

stayed up til about 3 something last night, reading through the latest blog to come to my short-spanned attention. i regularly bump into this woman in the lift or corridor at work. she is unforgivingly beautiful, it's just not fair to those less beautiful that God made women like this. more often than not, she's without a stitch of make-up and her hair in two little pig tails. she wears jeans

when i was 13, bunking at my best friend's place for the night was a huge treat. being hugely over-protected by my parents for most of my pre-teen life, it was a big deal getting away from home for even a few hours, much less one whole night. my best friend at the time was a very tall and rather large girl named katrina, who had always been the more worldly of us two, and way more

i remember there was a reason for not wanting to do long-distance. after the last experience of it, i dont think anyone can blame me for being twice-shy about the prospect. but truth is, when He came along, i forgot the reason. bowled over, really, by Him...i woke up one blissful morning after an even more blissful night, looked up at him and decided i would wait. without so much as a thought

what do you do when regardless of how hard you've tried, your colleagues just don't like you? my first week here i was so happy it was hard to keep me from bouncing around enthusiastically and wanting to get involved in everything. i'd found passion for my work again and walked around everywhere with the warm honeymoon glow that comes from being in a new place with endless possibilities and

i think my blog has died. i never seem to want to write about anything that's happening in my life lately, i cant be bothered to give an opinion (though i have many) and im so busy these days that by the time i get home (late) everything i might have wanted to blog about becomes a non-issue. not that nothing's been happening. on the contrary, life as i know it is beginning to sound (and look)

i think i no longer have what qualifies as a life in the social context of the word. since going into financial journalism, i now know that real work begins only after 5 when markets close...and if you ever thought business news meant business hours, you've been horribly misled. still, having weekends and public holidays off for once is refreshing. being at ntv7 for two years somehow

tomorrow's my first day at astro, my first new job in two and a half years, and believe it or not, im actually nervous. i spent the entire past week between jobs sorting out stuff that desperately needed attention and early this evening, i finally had a chance to sit down and fill up the employee information forms given me last monday... ...only to discover that, not only did my driver's

this gives me hope that there is still some goodness in the world. too often the heartfelt sign reads 'lost'. i found hundreds of these posters painstakingly printed and put up all along jalan glenmarie yesterday. you know there is reason to believe in the goodness of the human race when there is just one kind soul out there who has the heart to do something like this for someone he doesn't

when news of BN's massive win in terengganu started pouring in via sms at the lembah pantai vote-counting centre the other day, many reporters congregated at one corner of the hall to confirm the political developments and discuss the implications of the win. one reporter shook her head dismally and lamented: it's sad, so very sad. we need the opposition and this is bad news for the country.

working for almost a week now on election stories, im beginning to get the idea that a lot of the politics in this country are just downright petty. take for example, PAS' latest strategy to win over voters using religious blackmail. it pretty much works out that if you dont vote a 'true' islamic party (i.e. PAS), you go to hell. by the same token, PAS argues that you win your ticket to heaven

today is just one of those unbearable days where the minute i opened my eyes in bed, it struck me that i didnt have HIM to cuddle up to at the end of the day. today is also the day i planned to meet up with zab and angeline, friends i havent seen in ages, only to discover those plans have been dashed by a last-minute election meeting scheduled for tonight after work. its one of those days i

ive heard through the journalistic grapevine that parliament will be dissolved anytime between tuesday and friday next week. oh JOY. yes, sense my excitement. my fervour. my absolute glee at reporting my first ever general election. sorry folks, im just not IN this one. i really dont get the hype about why this is supposed to be the lifeblood of people in my profession. honestly, my blood just

ive been under the weather the last two days, but today began feeling well enough to go out and buy my favourite sick-food..."mee hoon kueh". sitting there amongst about 50 people in the coffee shop, and waiting the full 45 minutes for the oh-so-famous klang version of the soupy dish, i spied a peddler making his way towards me, holding two bottles of home prepared honey. knowing i didnt have

there are some days i know i have the coolest job in the world...and this is one of them! (of course, barring the awful days when we're pummelled with three million assignments, boring politicians who cant speak proper english AND/OR bahasa malaysia, and functions with speeches two hours long, i SO kid you not!) for the past three days, i have been covering the junior X games and asian X games

so monday was my first time back in the studio since the eye op thingie, and although some people in the office remarked that something about me seemed "different", the general consensus was that "different" wasn't a bad thing. the make-up artist, for the first time ever, actually looked enthusiastic about applying my make-up, and managed to relax enough to sing a little ditty. i went into the

if any of you watch american idol, you will know who william hung is. he's the guy who did (by that i mean sang AND danced) a disastrous rendition of ricky martin's 'she bangs'. i admit i giggled, ok. and at one point i even closed my eyes to try to put a stop to the pain i felt for the poor guy when simon told him "you cant sing, you cant dance, what do you have to say for yourself?" will's

im compelled to share a story with you. i got a call the other day from the distraught wife of a guy i know, hoping to find out if i had noticed 'a change' in him lately. had he, for example, become more quiet? did he 'disapppear' a lot? was he ever surrounded by women? was he a flirt? how do you answer questions like that, especially when you know the answers will hurt her? you dont know for

have you ever felt like assaulting a person at the cinema? i mean, you know, like removing your smelly shoe and violently stuffing it in their mouths, or clonking their heads with their handphones? or how about this one, locking them in a soundproof room and playing their own ringing tones BACK to them at the loudest volume possible? so just have a guess at what im on about, why dont you. i

well, its done. i feel a bit like a one-eyed pirate, and rather self conscious about the swelling, but i went ahead and did it. and im fine. thank you all, so much, for the support and encouragement. i thought about every kind word id received from you guys all the way to the clinic, and it calmed the nerves a great deal. i cant say i was crazy nervous...in fact, when the doctor came in and

im going to write about something very personal to me. (perhaps a public blog isnt the best place to write about things that mess us up inside, especially if theyve got something to do with our own little insecurities and all, and doubly especially if they come across as hugely insignificant to the outside world. but hey, i need to rant somewhere too, you know.) ok...*deep breath* ive always

there are times when its not just enough to have a heart...sometimes you need to have an ear too. its been so long since i last talked to a friend; i mean REALLY talked. and its been so long since i last listened. (btw, other halves dont count.) im the type of person who feels guilty for unloading problems onto other people, so i tend to just keep most things inside, or spill as much as i

here's a hopeful tale i heard from a very close friend of mine, who showed me that romance is still alive, even in its very simplest form. she and the man she loves are separated by miles and miles of sea, and as if that werent bad enough, two continents to boot. one particularly lonely night, when worry and depression are driving her near madness, and it seems that she, let alone they, could

ok, so maybe im not holding up so well after all. i hate to have to admit this after being able to handle things fine, or so i think, over the past few days. i even felt proud of myself at some point, for holding my head up high. but then, i woke up this morning with an uneasy feeling in the pit of my gut, and i havent been able to shake it off all day. im trying so hard to stay positive, and

thank God for technology. i was awoken out of deep slumber this a.m. by an excited kai, asking me to "get online". and so, in my befuddled state, bed hair two feet high with eyes barely open, i stumbled to the study and turned on the PC. and whaddaya know, messenger pops up and kai's face is smack in front of me, smiling brightly. i was so happy i cried. oh, after all the joyful screaming, of
