Deliciously Me

Don’t ask why I wake up so early because it’s one long grandma story and I’m not in mood to blog bout it. Haha!

So because I can’t sleep, I woke up plurking, checking and sending email, bloghopping and facebooking.

And guess what I stumbled upon in FB?

I can’t stop laughing when I see that. The Fail or rather ‘phailed’ case that was a hit in SO probably got its way into FB now. That picture is so freakin’ cuteeeee till I couldn’t bear to fail the poor white cock.

Haha.

That’s all from me now. Lazy to blog lengthy. Good morning to everyone and have a fantastic and mind-blasting day ya~ (saying those two Italic words with Russell Peter’s accent. lolololol)

I went down to the kitchen to wash my bowl and spoon and one of my male housemates, B was there filling the kettle with water before boiling it. As I was squeezing dishdrop onto the green scrubber, suddenly he told me that there was a cockroach near the rubbish bin. That time a female housemate, let’s called her Q, walked to the kitchen to check on her food.

Both me and Q turned our heads to the rubbish bin there and yes, we spotted the cockroach. Static. Didn’t move at all.

So I told him, why not catch it or kill it?

He replied, “Siu keong very keong one” (cockroach is tough – meaning not easy to kill it la) and walked out the kitchen.

The moment B said that, I can feel a big sweat dropping down my head. I think Q felt the same thing too.

And so I thought, I’ll catch it once I finish washing my bowl. At the same time I was eyeing the cockroach, making sure it didn’t run around.

Out of sudden, Q walked towards the cockroach with a tissue on her hand and just ‘giap‘ the cockroach up.

I was like WTFISHPRAWNSQUIDCRAB!!!

But obvious I didn’t show my shocked look la. Need to maintain coolness. But deep inside, I respect her kao kao for being so brave! Never in my life will I expect a girl, especially her to ‘pick’ the cockroach up like that. She’s the sweet, soft spoken type of girl so whatever she did just now really changed my mindset on her. Plus, mostly girls will use broom/slippers to kill the cockroach. Or scream for help and let the guys to do the dirty job.

I wondered what B will react if he sees that? Surely his jaw gonna drop until the floor.

Few days ago, I asked my fellow readers to guess which is my artwork. And Wenyan (my siao coursemate) had the urge of telling everyone which ‘bird’ is mine. LOL.
(*siao – crazy)

Well, guess no more (I don’t think anyone bother to guess it also) as I’m showing them here.

Tadaa…

I drew this when I was learning on how to draw a bird. So, I made a few long lines, and drew birds on top of the lines. That’s why you can see some birds are super weird. I supposed to colour them – in blue, green, yellow, red. But I was practising the way of drawing, therefore they’re all in one colour – black; which reminds me of crows. LOL!

Why this picture was exhibited?

Seriously, when the teacher chose this, I was in shocked myself. I told him, don’t take this, take the rest. But he said this painting of mine – rather creative and different from the rest. (Or maybe to show differences between a good and lousy artist).

Anyway, I still love this picture. Be it the groups of burung gagak or burung pipit – I don’t care. It’s still my artwork. LOL!

Yes, these issues are still there – but was pushed to the ‘back’ and ‘hot’ anymore. Remember once kidnap case was super duper HOT and conquering the papers (for weeks)? I guess the trend shifted.

Anyway, today I’m not touching on politics and policies – I’m regarded as budak kecil yang tak tau benda, jangan kepo, jangan luan luan cakap. So, diam I will be. Today gonna blog on something that happened to me and my family members yesterday and earlier.

Regarding scam.

You know, those China man (no offense to those from China) or local (some bad, greedy Malaysian) called you up, telling you that you strike lottery or kena fined or some project cepat kaya; then asking you to bank in a LARGE SUM of money to your account they created oversea (actually is their account) and then never heard of them anymore. It was then it dawn on you that you’ve been cheated, duped; whine and cry over your losses; report this case to police and told media bout your plight.

A lady called my house yesterday. My sister answered it, and I wondered why she’s talking on the phone for so long. Then suddenly she can to me and my mum and complained bout this person who claimed that she’s from A’Farmosa (she mentioned in Mandarin) and wants to talk to my mum. The phone rang for the second time. My sis didn’t want to talk to her anymore, and asked my mum to listen. But 1 minute later, she ended the call. She said she unable to understand what the lady’s talking bout (my mum has this hearing problem and that lady was talking fast in strong Putonghua accent)

She called again. This time I answered the call. She asked for my mum, I told her my mum’s busy. What she wants? I forgotten what ends and that’s it. No more calls after that.

Or I thought so. Today, while my family and I were having lunch, the phone rang. My sister suddenly mouthed, “Must be that China lady! Jie, quickly go answer it!”

I was like, it can’t be her again.

The moment I said Hello, her familiar accent hit me. Obviously, she asked for my mum. Knowing that my mum will NEVER gonna talk to her, I told her, my mum’s having lunch now, not free to answer. Then she demanded to know who am I. Got pissed off by her, I asked, “Why you want to know who am I?”

Ignoring my question, she demanded to talk to my mum again. Once I told her that my mum’s busy, she repeated the question of asking who’s on the line again. Totally pekchek with her, with voice abit raise but still under control, I told her,

“I told you d. My mum is busy. And why you want to know who am I? Does it matter? Why are you calling here AGAIN AND AGAIN?!”

I think she got angry this time, cause she mumbled something – which I unable to decipher and then ended the call. I ended the call, laughing.

See HOW RUDE IS SHE?! How can you end your potential customer’s (victim’s) call?

Whatever it is, I figure out that this must be some scam that she want to introduce to my mum, but too bad, she got the wrong person to mess with d. Not easy to trick someone’s hard earned money okay! If you’re really from Farmosa Company or whatever stuff, you should converse in English or Malay. This is Malaysia, and like other countries; people talk bout business in Malay or English. Mostly in English. Only if the customer is not fluent in Malay/English, they switch to Mandarin. MALAYSIAN MANDARIN, not those Putonghua.

Don’t tell me that she’s really into selling something or recommend things, cause she can do so thru me. She can introduce those products/services to me first, and ask me to inform my mum bout it. I’ll listen to whatever she’s recommending (as a polite gesture). But she didn’t. All she wants is to talk to my mum and ‘brainwash’ her.

Ohya, my mum did talk to her. But did she manage to tell her anything? My mum doesn’t really want to listen to this kind of ‘recommendation’. She has totally no interest on phone-sales, skim-cepat-kaya, saman and stuffs. She believes if she really got saman, then they should send a letter, not informing thru phone. LOL!

To those scamp-ers, don’t think every Malaysian is stupid okay? Yes, you might fool some of us but not all. Plus we’re aware of this scam already, your tricks don’t work on us anymore.

SO, if the lady calls again tomorrow, I’m gonna answer the call by ‘Assalamuilakum’ and start talking in Malay or mumble some Tamil words to her – to scare her away. LOL!

*my sister who answered the phone first, said that the lady inquired about my mum, without letting her know what’s the purpose. Luckily my sister’s smart enough to tell her my mum’s surname only, nothing more. She also questioned her back, but I think the lady unsure of what to do and fear of being ‘exposed’, ended the call. If this is not a scam, then what can it be? LOL.*
