There's something alien about Crocs

You know, I actually set up my laptop and made a cozy corner amidst the mess that is my living room so that I can prepare some slides for work (that I have been pitifully putting off!) when I decided that I want to blog something...

That's Procrastination hard at work!
Damnit!

I'm, once again, blogging about shoes :D Muahaha... I tell you, the way to a woman's heart is thru her feet!!! (oh well, this woman, anyway) I've been wanting to blog about this since a LONG time ago but I haven't had the chance... Anyways..

In Sept, I went home to the Great Place That Is. This place is so great, it doesn't even need words to describe it :)



Yup.. That's THE GREAT PLACE THAT IS that I am talking about.. Anyways, Chin Aun and I drove back during Raya to bask in the love that is home for a week. And in that week, I made the most of my time setting up shopping dates with Mello and Bee Sung and spending the rest of my time with my family, doing things that family do.

Mello and I went to QB to check out what stores opened up there (for my sake because I haven't been there since forever) and we happened to stroll into Crocs. I wanted to show her a pair of sandals that my sis and I were planning to get for my mom.

To cut the long story short, Mel and I walked in, tried on pairs after pairs of shoes and when I found my senses again, I was clutching on to a Crocs bag and so was Mel!! I checked the time and it has been an hour and a half since we stepped into the store! Can you believe it?!?! It's amazing that this happened in broad daylight!!

.

MEL AND I WERE ABDUCTED BY ALIENS!!!

TOGETHER!!!!!! FOR OVER AN HOUR!!!!!!

IN BROAD DAYLIGHT!!!

WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AS WITNESSES!!

AND WE WERE GIVEN CROCS AS SOUVENIRS!!!


Isn't that totally awesome!?!??! What I wouldn't give to be abducted again *grins*
So Mel and I proceeded to discuss our miraculous abduction over a cup of coffee in Secret Recipe and checked out our gifts from our new-found-alien-buddies..




Pretty neat right?? They even gave us our shoes in our right sizes! Mine's size9 and Mel's size 7 (? - I think)..

Mary Janes - Sea Foam


Mary Janes - Lavender


And you know what? Those extraterrestials were so darned sweet too :) They gave us the shoes complete with Jibbitz!! Mine has a Pooh Bear sleeping with a Honey Pot and Mel has Marvin the Martian (I KNEW they were hinting something when I saw that!). They also gave us matching MO Jibbitz on each of our left shoe!~ That was sooooooooo sooooooooooo sweet :))) *teary eyed*


Marvin, Pooh Bear & MO



Look! A perfect fit!! :D

When I got home, I came to know that my sister also experienced the same abduction issue!! The aliens gave her a pair of blue suede shoes ;) My dad made known that he felt very left out when we were discussing our abduction adventure that we had to use our telepathic connections to communicate with these special foreign beings to come abduct my dad as well. They blessed him with a pair of boring black slippers that suited his old-man preferences well..

That's the 3 of us in our alien-induced glory

Sobek in Black

Celeste Suede in Chocolate/Peacock

And since the 7th of Oct was Chin Aun's Bday.... I once again misused my mind power to tell them aliens to send him a pair as birthday present ;) Boy, was he happy with them ;)

Off Road in Army/Orange (Chin Aun actually received it in another color but I could not find a picture of that)

*********************************************

I just heard from Mel that a total of RM252 was charged to her credit card for the month of October. It happened in the short span of time that we were abducted. The thing is, her credit card NEVER left her purse.... I guess we'll never really know what happened in that 90mins in Queensbay Mall on that balmy evening of the 1st of October...

*****************************************

I know... I'm so full of sh*t... Ah well, but if you are reading this crap that I am writing at 11pm at night (to get out of doing my slides for presentation!) you must love me - even a little bit!. Haha...

In Loving Memory...

... of my Aunt Carol.


As most of you know, my aunt was diagnosed with the final stage of cervical cancer in 2007 and recovered after many sessions of radiotherapy. However, the cancer by then had spread to her lungs and liver and because she was unable to undergo chemotherapy, the doctor advised her to live quality life.

My aunt finally succumbed to the cancer on the 21st of October and I'm glad that I managed to get home in time and was by her side when she took her last breath.


That's me and my aunt in the Penang International Airport waiting to board our flight to LA

And this is a more recent photo of us when she was sending me off (together with my parents) at the Nibong Tebal bus station when I went back to Penang for a break. I know that this isn't exactly the most flattering photo of me with my puffy eyes but it isn't about me...


I will cherish and miss our times together, from the time I was a born until now. I'll always remember how she and my mom would patiently wait for my bus to arrive/plane to land when I come back home. How she and my parents will never fail to send me off when I go back to KL irregardless whether she was working that day. If she was, she'd take leave just to send me to the bus station/airport. How much I bugged her to buy me an iPod from US when I first caught the Apple bug and she complied. The weekend dim sum lunches and shopping sprees. How I put my hands over my ears when she nags at me about leaving the computer on overnight...

There's just so many things and I just don't know how to put it in words. I wake up every morning re-adjusting to the fact that she is no longer here.

I really miss her...

Bangkok Limbo with Air Asia

SMFS!!!

I bloody booked flight tickets to Bangkok sometime last year in Decemeber. I'm scheduled to fly off on the 14th of Sept and scheduled to come back on the 17th of the same month.

Look at the political chaos in Thailand now! How in the world am I supposed to board the plane with a happy shopping face on the 14th to fly there when a niggling thought at the back of my head is freaking me out!? My mom is worried that if I go, I might get stuck there and dear old Mel and Zeeks can see me on CNN running for my life. Yeah, just imagine the scenario of me haggling for a pair of shoes and I get shot in the back of my head - "Free shoes, ma'am?? They've got blood and brain matter all over it"

Chin Aun and I have been trying to call Air Asia's call centre to get further information since 2 weeks ago and all these while we have been put on hold for HOURS (yeah, think of the damn phone bill that's on the way). And we managed to get thru today at 6pm just now - not to the call centre but to the Guest Services centre. Isn't that absolutely great? *roll eyes*

Yeah, don't call Call Centre at 03-8775 4000
Call 03-8660 4388 instead for Guest Support. At least someone is picking up the phone there (please be prepared to wait a few hours)

Anyways, we have been informed that we will be charged at least RM80/person/flight if we want to change the date of travel - that would make it a freaking RM320!! (more than 50% of the price of our flight tickets and let's not even talk about my hotel booking fee).

Isn't this fantastic?? Our first experience overseas with Air Asia and the shit hits the fan.
And mind you, this shit is the wet type.

I know I am being disgusting but I can't help it. I'm pissed.

I guess we also reluctantly understand that Air Asia cannot do much because our government has yet to issue an official warning against travelling to Bangkok. Yup, the big ones are too busy playing in their political sandbox, blissfully unaware that the rest of the country is looking at them to make important decisions. Not determining whether they want to fucking flee the country before 16th Sept or whether they are backing the public for Ahmad's apology. Freaking dumb shits.

Look at China. At least they have their people's best interests in mind to issue a "no-fly" to Thailand instead of gorging themselves with selfish individualistic agendas!

So peeps, next time, think twice before you buy air tickets so long in advance. And if you really want to, fly Singapore Airlines. At least you pay a premium price and you get quality in return and someone's bound to pick up the phone at the call centre instead of putting you on hold.

And what's rich - when I'm put on hold, I was forced to listen to this message - "All our customer care agents are still busy due to our promotions. Please hold" (not in verbatim, something along the lines of that). I guess they couldn't say "We're sorry. Due to the shit that's happening right now in Thailand, our passengers have gone crazy and flooded our lines. Please hold while we get someone to tend to your crap".


Damn pissed ade... No mood to post photos taken in Korea now.

A post for the sake of posting...

Yes, I am merely writing a post for the sake of posting. It seems that in the past month, all my will to write and every frigging ounce of creativity that I have in my head has flown out the window and into the darkness of the night...

For those who didn't know, I actually just came back from a hectic 6D4N trip to Korea.. a company incentive trip :) I initially dreaded going because it's summer there and the Sun and I don't get along too well. But as soon as I set foot there, I wished that I had more money to spare!! Hahaha... cos I had so many things to buy, yet so little cash, so little time and so little space.

Anyways, as soon as I got back into the office today and before I started clearing tons of emails that amassed in my absence, I decided to write to my two best buddies in the world to tell them how much I miss them and that I got something for them from my trip. And what did I get in return????? *shoot daggers from eyes*
2 people complaining about my dead blog... well, two people who gave it to me in black-&-white complaining about my dead blog and Zeeks complained on his sister's behalf as well *give a withering look to Zilly*. These 3 nuts are ganging up on me...

As usual, Mello being the more subtle of the 2, mentioned that she is bored and asked me to blog something. But Zeeks, being the mangkuk Mah that he is, said this in verbatim:

yalar.. soon, plz lar, even my sis also complaint ur blog. no updates. she ask me after your top 10 songs you run oout of ideas already izit???
plz have some "hot and spicy" gossips in your blog in order to revive "shooting my @ss", i mean breeze.


im expecting at least 5 entries on your trip and some drama going on... like checking out the gay bars, go for guy stripping show, how you flirt with korean guys..... etc.. etc..

sthing like dat... plz.................


*give another withering look to Zilly*
Don't you DARE take after your brother, the renowned Mangkuk Mah!

Shooting my @ss!??! Checking gay bars?!?! Guys Strip Show!?!? Flirt with Korean guys!??!?!

Let me say something to the above:

1. The only @ss I'd ever shoot would be yours if you don't tone down and apologize and make it up for your harshness by getting me a fabulous gift from Hanoi

2. Checking Gay Bars?!?! What For!??! All the females there like females and all the males there like males. I don't see a win-win situation here for me...

3. Guys Strip Show!? Considering everything costs a bomb in Korea, I'm guessing I would have to fork out at least 30,000won for the Strip Show and I'd rather buy me something more tangible :p

4. Flirt!? How?! It's worse than chicken and duck talk.. and if you've forgotten, there's someone here called Chin Aun. Want me to get skinned and hung up to dry??

The most exciting thing I did there was go on a super-rollercoaster ride with 90degree plunges and it was freaking awesome!! If the line wasn't as long as it was, I'd go on it again and again. I'll show you guys some photos once I've scaled down the size and photoshopped them (it was 6 sweltering hot days and the heat don't do wonders for my face ok???)

Meanwhile, give me a couple of minutes, I'm sitting here, freezing my bum off in my towel, waiting for my face mask to dry. Once I get cleaned up, I'll blog something good ok?? :p

What a joke...

*snorts*

...our fuel dilemma, that is. Or is it?

In early March 2008, an announcement was made that there would NOT be any increase in fuel prices in 2008.
In June 2008, fuel prices rose to a bloody RM2.70/ltr (an whooping 40%)!!

Last month, the govt announced that petrol prices would not be reviewed for reduction until Sept 2008.
As of 12:00am today, petrol price went down to RM2.55/ltr...

Points to take into consideration:

1. General Election was in March 2008 - ruling party lost highest revenue states like Penang and Selangor to opposition and barely won by a hairsbreath.

2. Permatang Pauh by-election will be held final week of August.

Timeline seems to be of the essence, no??


My points of view:


1. The people are not stupid. On the contrary... we are aware of the mind-blowing activites that are coincidental with the timeline

2. According to The Star Online, a certain member of the parliament seems annoyed about the lack of appreciation from the public on the fuel price reduction (source: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/8/23/nation/20080823172837&sec=nation) and says that the people should be thankful for the fuel 'rebate' otherwise, the rebate would be used elsewhere. However, whilst this particular person only SEEMS annoyed, I AM, TRULY, DEEPLY ANNOYED. Reason being - just because you inflict pain and anguish on someone everyday and decide to take a break by inflicting less for 15-days (? subject to review...), you think that someone is going to APPRECIATE you? wtf?! Someone here is deluded and it isn't me...

3. Someone important went on a joyride on our trusty old KTM and LRT and decided that it's in a sorry state!! *hysterical laughter* (He truly didn't know!? *raise eyebrow* & *roll eyes*) Why now? Why after so many years of sitting in that comfortable seat that he decides to go for a ride? Perhaps it's got something to do with a certain big-thing happening in Permatang Pauh...

4. Lastly... this whole debacle since March 2008 reminds me of a certain US President who said these evergreen words:


"I DID NOT sleep with Ms Lewinsky"
only to say this after several weeks:
"I DID sleep with Ms Lewinksy"



What a bloody stinking joke.

Top 10 Songs...

Zeeks came up with an idea to do a joint-blog post for him, Melissa and myself. And the topic that he gave us for this assignment is "The Top 10 Songs On Your Ipod". He actually gave us a deadline to post it up by the 5th of June at 10:00pm. But on the 5th of June, I was too caught up with work that it totally slipped my mind so I had to persuade the two royal highnesses to postpone it to today. After a while, they agreed and so here I am~ :)

Now the thing is, when Zeeks mentioned the "Top 10 Songs On Your Ipod", he did not mention whether he meant the top 10 songs that is currently playing on my ipod or the top 10 songs that is vital that I have on my ipod...

So I'll just answer to BOTH the questions at hand... *grins*

I'll just briefly run through the current The Top 10 songs that is currently playing on my ipod right now:


David Archuleta - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
David Cook - Dream Big / Always Be My Baby / Time of My Life


Brewing from the fever of American Idol Season 7, I've been hooked on David Cook (the new American Idol) and David Archuleta's performances. I loved Archuleta's version of "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me"! It was even better than Clay Aiken's version, and about a gazillion times better than Elton John's version.


As for the other David, I am hooked on his performances in the final for "Dream Big" and "Time of My Life" (the winning song). And who could forget his cover of Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby"??


Neil McCoy - Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye

Then there's a cover version of "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye" which Neil McCoy did for The Casino's classic which was used in the movie Paris Je T'aime. Zeeks actually watched the movie and he asked me to download the mp3 for him. I found the original version but Zeeks found the cover version and shared with me and Mel.... I LOVE IT!~ It's so lovey dovey melancholy!~




Marie Digby - Stupid For You

I found this song on YouTube :) and it's got a catchy-feet-tapping tune to it. Haven't found a good version of it yet.


Chris Daughtry - What About Now
Graham Colton - Best Days

I accidentally found these two songs when I was watching American Idol Season 7's Idol Gives Back and they were playing these songs when showing the top 3 finalists visit to their home town. I caught snippets of the lyrics and googled them and ta-dah!~ :)


Chris Brown - With You

And finally, there's Chris Brown's "With You" :) I love the part in front when he sings "I need you, bu"... and I also like David Archuleta's version of this song.

********************
And now, I'll proceed with going through The Top 10 Song that I will always have on my iPod *grins* It was hard to narrow it down to the songs that I'm about to name now but I guess I just had to think long and hard and just think what are the songs that I would HAVE to transfer to a new mp3 player with limited storage space.


Adam Sandler - I Wanna Grow Old With You


From the soundatrack of the magnificent romantic comedy "The Wedding Singer" starring Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler. He sang that song to her when she was leaving on a plane because she thought he didn't love her. Although the song is very short and simple, the lyrics were so meaningful and romantic :)) hehehe... perfect for a sap like me...


Color Me Badd - Forever Love

This R&B group have been really successful in the early 90's and this is one of their less famous songs (as opposed to the raunchy "I Wanna Sex You Up"). They are also famous for their songs like "The Earth, The Sun and The Rain" and "All for Love".


Blessid Union of Souls - Light In Your Eyes

I heard this song long long time ago (I think that was when I was 13 or 14?? Which is like eons ago...) and I have fallen in love with it is. And there was a time when Mel and I actually drafted our own version of this song during a tuition class when we were supposed to be paying attention to add maths. I guess listening to this song makes me relive our crazy good times :) I miss those times...


Jay Chou - Lang Man Shou Ji (Romantic Cellphone) / Wo Bu Pei (I'm Not Worthy)

And on my MUST-HAVE list, there are 2 songs by Jay Chou! :) First is "Lang Man Shou Ji" from his November's Chopin album and the other one is "Wo Bu Pei" from his On the Run album (his most recent album). I guess I like them because they are so distinguished and so different...


Bon Jovi - Always

Bon Jovi's Crossroads album is their most magnificent album ever and I can be sure to say that this is their most successful album ever! Whilst "Always" is THE Bon Jovi song, they have many other hit singles as well like "Never Say Goodbye", "Livin' On A Prayer" and "I'll Be There For You" to name a few. All in all, Bon Jovi is one of the most magnificent and most awed rock bands in the history of music...


The Calling - Wherever You Will Go

Then of course, there's The Calling's "Wherever You Will Go". The Calling has many other great singles under their belt but this one is the most profound. And no matter how many great songs they have (like "Things Don't Always Turn Out That Way" and "Stigmatized"), I will never ever get sick of this one :) I'm even using it as my ringtone!


Lifehouse - Blind
Jason Wade - You Belong To Me


And finally on my Top 10 list is Lifehouse and Jason Wade (lead singer of Lifehouse) *grins* I love "Blind" but I don't know why. I also like Lifehouse's "Whatever It Takes" and "Chapter One" but this one is my favourite.
As for Jason Wade's "You Belong To Me" is from the Soundtrack of Shrek and I didn't even know it existed (because, can you imagine, I have never seen Shrek!). I accidentally found this song online and I have never gone more than 3 days without listening to it!
********************

Well here you go... my top 10 lists of songs :)
I know that this post is a little dry. But I'm a little tired because I'm mentally, emotionally and physically drained. But you know, after posting all that on music, it really does lift my spirits a bit.
So here you go, Mel and Zeeks's posts as well

The problem with us is...

.... our government. To be specific, our federal government.

It's true. The hike in petrol has been confirmed. From RM1.92 per litre to RM2.70 per litre = a whopping 40% increase! What next? 40% increase in toll prices too? With the massive jump in fuel prices, no doubt the price of everything else would just skyrocket! Somehow, I doubt there'd be massive skyrocketing in our salaries.

In the eyes of a disgruntled citizen as myself, I wished that there was something that we, a collection of ALL disgruntled citizens, could do about this situation. Isn't it bad enough that we are forced to settle for miserable excuses for vehicles with the likes of Proton cars when the taxes for all imported cars are preposterous?! These cars that shake and rattle so much that you can barely hear yourself think when you drive along roads with excessive potholes like Jalan Universiti??

These are the same cars that we, citizens of this country, are forced to buy because every other car that is imported that provides us with the bare necessities that our local carmaker cannot provide to us! And these bare necessities that I am talking about are not only in terms of performance and fuel efficiency...

I'm just bloody asking for an affordable car within my budget, within all young working Malaysians' budget, that doesn't have headlights that retain water when it rains. A car with power windows that actually works for more than 2 months. A car with doors that doesn't rust within the first year of purchase. A car that doesn't creak and groan and shake and rattle and basically sound like it's about to fall to pieces everytime you go over a bump or a pothole. (Speaking of potholes, why the f**k doesn't the government do anything about these road menace in PJ especially!?)

With the petrol subsidies pluging like birds' droppings, you would think that the government would reduce the taxes of imported cars so that us, citizens of Malaysia, would be able to afford better quality cars... right? That would be a sensible and logical next step - to keep our best interests at heart.


*scoff*

Best Interests at Heart? hmmph... that would be a first...

We're talking about the same people who issued a statement to the press about taking back everything that they've given to the Penang state (like the RapidPenang Bus System) when they lost the elections. Just one example of the many other childish post-election issues that were raised 2 months ago...

I wouldn't be surprised if this is the ruling government's next step to 'get back' at the public for letting the opposition win more than 40% of the seats contested. And if someone who is as politically-illiterate as I am can see this, I'm sure that there would be millions more out there who can.
From the looks of it, Malaysia is just the federal government's playpen and we are the pawns with everything to lose...


********************

For those who have been following the election news and info, this is something that you would have guessed would happen when Khairy won the Rembau seat and there was speculation that it was not a clean win:


Sometimes you just wonder where we are headed to, where this country is headed to...

What's in a name??

*snorts*

I'm stifling back my laughter just thinking about it...

Anyone knows what KANTHAN is? *grin*

Maybe it's sort of a personal joke... but to Mel, Zeeks and myself.. we're gonna be laughing about this for a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time *grins*

ENJOY!!

2 Girls, A Guy and A Working Place


*Note to self: Don't laugh about KHANTAN too much... it's indirectly what's paying for some of my meals *grins* (well... a little less than 'some' now...)

More Skechers

From the title above, you can only guess that I've either fallen in love with another pair of skechers or I've taken an additional step and BOUGHT my love in the form of a pair of shoes *grins* In today's case... it would be the latter..

I LOVE SKECHERS!

See the picture up there?? I know EXACTLY how she feels when she looks so delirious about a few pairs of shoes.

I don't know why... love, more often than not, are deemed inexplicable and this is no different.

I've actually been hunting for the perfect pair.. I wanted something non-black and it's kinda hard to find a pair of shoes that is NOT black when I'm dressed in black 95% of the times *throw hand up in air - exasperated*

I went to MidValley, Sunway and finally 1-Utama and found this pair:

Loved it on the spot! :D I tried the exact same pair in brown in Midvalley but I wanted something a little bit more different and I found this!~

But, it was in 1-Utama and the lady, her name is Aishah, was being really rude and I was not about to give her 200bucks quite so easily. She gave me a dark look when I walked into the store and selected a few pairs and asked for them in size 8. Then when she came back with the shoes, she dropped them off on the seat beside where I was sitting as though I'm imposing on her. But isn't that supposed to be her job?!

I was on the brink of purchasing it and I knew that I could get it for 25% off with HSBC credit card (because a nice guy in Midvalley told me and a nice lady in Sunway reinforced it). But this Aishah lady told me that I could not get the 25% off because they were having in-store sales as well - of 20%.

I was like WTF!? Okay... I know that 5% difference isn't a big deal and if she was being nice to me, I would have just made the purchase and walked out of the store euphoric. But she was seriously pissing me off with her 'holier-than-thou' attitude and I guess after 20minutes of dealing with her, the bitch in me just emerged (I guess about time too... she's been repressed for far too long). I told her to pack it up; indicating that I would purchase it. Then I walked and tried on as many pairs of shoes that I possibly could. Knowing my big fat feet, my shoe size would NEVER be on display.. I MADE her go and get the shoes knowing fully well that I have no intentions of purchasing the shoes - or any other shoe from her. Finally, I told her that I wanted some time to think about it and I walked out. I bet she called me every filthy name that she knows in her head but I guess I just didn't give a shit. I'm sick of taking crap of everyone, much less someone I'm paying...

I continued with my shopping and then went back to the store and this time was met with another store assistant. She was there too and she recognized me. It was an Indian lady this time - real soft spoken :) I think her name is Kothmandy. Then she told me that she checked and she could give me the 25% off and so I bought my shoes from her. But I also asked her for her HQ contact information and the person-in-charge of customer service. I'm going to make a very interesting phone call tomorrow...

Kothmandy kept apologizing and I told her not to. She did not do anything wrong, so why is she apologizing for her colleague's behalf? *raise eyebrow* she didn't have to do that at all...

Back to happier matters... Aren't my shoes absolutely gorgeous??? *swoons*



I love the cutesy details :)









And when I have more money.. I'm getting these :D
They're called CALI GEAR and they're like Crocs... only cuter ;))))


I guess apart from Aishah crappy behaviour... it's all in all a great shoe experience :D

22nd May 2008

It's the 22nd of May again. How time flies...

As of this day, Chin Aun and I have been together for 6 years... It seems like just yesterday when we were fresh out of school and starting college life. But look at us now... already in our mid 20's...

To commemorate the event, Chin Aun took me to The Ship in Uptown for the "Best Steak In Town". And granted; it was :)



Clam Chowder and Crab Salad
The Clam Chowder is awesome!! It's the first time I've ever had Clam Chowder with a red base soup. The soup and the salad is so fresh that I would have been contented to just order another serving of that and go without the main course


Grilled Sirlion Steak


Sizzling Chicken


Chocolate Temptation
This ice-cream dish even comes with a personalized chocolate stick that has The Ship's emblem on it! Isn't that cool?? :)


Chin Aun with a Bib
He has to wear one because he ordered the sizzling chicken and the gravy would go splitter-splatter all over his shirt

The food excellent and the service is even better than that. It's nice to go classic and visit a restaurant as established as The Ship rather than going to the usual fast food / fusion joints that we often frequent nowadays...

And I even got a free gift from the restaurant :

A cutey bear :)

I'm hooked...

.... on this!



The tagline is sooooooo befitting...
"A Disturbingly Perfect New Drama"
Some issues and some scenes in the series are definitely mind boggling! And very unsettling... but yet I'm unreasonably addicted to it! Like I was addicted to CSI...
Chin Aun and I finished the entire Season 1 within the weekend and now we are so ruffled because we do not have Season 2 with us... argh!


For those who's never seen this. You don't know what you're missing...
The incomprehensible addiction and late nights are sooooooooooo worth it :D Julian McMahon is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better in this than in Charmed.
