It was Claire's wedding last saturday. My very first chinese friend who is a muslim convert. heh. Who knows chuan is next? hahaha. Ok lets not scared him thinking about it haha. Anyways, that same saturday morning, i went out with my sis-in-law. She called the very morning to ask me to sleep over - and time is so running out for me to pack - In the end, i did. We went out & there's no way i could meet Idah at 4:30 - its too rushing for me. So i guess i gave it a miss. Idah should be able to cope with fadzli around. Well, im supposed to be sleeping over until sunday but went home on monday instead, together with my 2nd bro family since its Hari Raya Haji & we were all gathering at my mum's place after all. That sunday, she told me she's bringing the kids to the zoo & asked if i wanna come along. Of cos i dont mind coming - That because i thought, i was just gonna meet her over somewhere! But when she said she fetched me tuesday night so we could go together on wednesday, i was dumbfounded. To tell you the truth, i hate sleeping in people house because i dont feel comfortable & the hassle of bringing clothes & big bag over. But i relented eventually - til friday.

Zoo outing was fun. We brought my 1st bro first two older children along. My 1st bro 2nd child - Iqbal - almost got hit by a tram. Its a complicated story. From 11 til 6pm, it is exhausting. Nana slept over too til thursday. So i had company of my 2 lovely nieces in the room. Thursday, after sending Nana to her aunt house (her mom's side), we head off to jurong point meeting my sis-in-law's friend. From noon til night, its another tiring day. I swear i was happy when friday is near. After all, having been at home from only monday afternoon til tues night, i miss my home! But my anticipation was stripped off when she asked me to stay til sat noon! Damn, i had plan with Dee. I reach my house on sat & hurry to get ready meeting Dee. And pass my HAPPY BIRTHDAY wish to Zidan ika - i'm sorry i couldnt come, everything was last minute & i had things all planned.

Outing with dee was great! we havent met in 3 months plus we have kept postponing our meetings & surely i cant postpone this again. We met Big Zul & Azhar at the bugis coffeeshop where we always ate. They were in group of 10 or was it 12? Somebody was calling meow & kat & i know its coming out from that big group but i just dont wanna look at them & find WHO. So i just sat down with dee & only then i realize who's the culprit. haha. It was great meeting old friends again in some odd places..lol. After that, we did some minor shopping and i really mean minor - just some lil accessories & other minor things. We chilled at starbucks taking pictures away. It was the same thing last time too. haha. Im so glad things are going great for her...she's lucky. Thanks for the treat Dee - i take it as a treat on you getting a full time job hehe.

And at the present moment, im kinda agitated & perhaps even frustrated with someone who's doing MLM(muli-level marketing) & had been pestering me to go to her talks. The messages are always sly - date..venue..time.. - without any starting or ending message OR "Do come/ I hope you come, you've got nothing to lose". Or if we go chilling, and i was saying how at times i felt it would be nice to stay overseas, the next thing she said was, "If you wanna change your life, then come to the talk." - that is SO business way of talking & i dont need such reply. And she once invited me over to her house for an event she made as part of the job. I told her i was sick. She say "come to my house, i give you energy". I say "im not sure im too lazy to go out". Like i dont even bother to walk much around the house either. And i cant believe she actually said, "Its just 5 mins away" implying that i should come cos we are near. Shouldnt she be saying ok-rest-well-then or ok-i-wont-force-you-get-well-soon instead? This is so wrong. She became like that eversince joining the company. I tried talking to her, and all got back to square one & she start mentioning that there's nothing wrong going for the talk, i've got nothing to lose. Right! But I've got nothing to gain either. And the admission isnt free ok. So i really want to know how many talks she expecting us to go & how much time & money(entrance fees & fare trips) should we spend just for going to her talks. We came out of the talk with nothing to gain but spend money for the admission. So much for nothing to lose. I havent gone to her talk once. Cos i go through it before & you cant brainwash me no matter how much you insist that THE TALK IS DIFFERENT! Second, im totally not interested & i dont wanna spend on doing something that doesnt even give me slight interest. Third, becos of repeated pestering, i felt i dont wanna go even more. I think if she ever gonna keep it this way, there's likely to be severe friction in future and things can be resolved if she could see from my point. As a friend, of cos i gave her my support even tho i dont agree with MLM. But support can come in many forms. And going for her talks all the time is obviously not the way. I dont even wanna bitch about my friend cos i dont bitch about my friends unless they do something totally unacceptable, way out of my league & still feeling on top of the world. But like i said, the matter had been going on sometimes and i cant even get a straight answer even when trying to talk to her.

do u feel what i feel?
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
im totally gobsmacked.
