Box of crayons.

During a one fine evening, a man and a woman cuddling up with each other, enjoying the moment.

"Sayang, if you were a box of crayons, what color do you think you'd be?", she metaphorically asks her loved one.

"Why do women always ask stupid shit like this..", he replies in such annoyance.

"Just answer it. This type of stupid shit satiates me", her tone is bland, but her curiosity devours everything.

"Okay, I'll be a white crayon"

"...I mean what else would I be, I'm white, so I'm the white crayon, you're the brown crayon", continues the man, sniggers while trying to finish his sentence.

She laughs along with him.

"Realistically, there would only be 4 colors in this world, white, black, brown and yellow. There won't be any purple, or red or green or some shit like that. And if you combine all that together, we would be shit-colored. That's what the world is, it's full of shit", he responds in a vivid tone.

This true story might have been fabricated slightly to emphasize on the end point.

Friday.

Today is a self declared off day. Har har har. I reached home at 4pm yesterday and went to sleep at 5pm until 9am today.

Heee :D

But I received a call (which I didn't pick up) from boss an hour ago about work. Alamak. Nevermindlah, I'll do my work tonight. Hey it's the weekend tomorrow.

About the business trip..it was tiring only because I had to drive. Other than that, it was awesome. Duduk kat 5-star hotel, mana tak best. :D

Muka tahan berak.

Donalia Miller

I'm thinking of making Vlogs. Or probably just audio. That should be fun, no? Then padan lah muka orang yang mendengarnya. Har har har.

------

I might be seconded to another project that deals in strategic management (while managing this current project). Apa ni, haritu cakap I'll be dealing with cybercities/centers sajaa, ni mau masuk strategic mgmt juga kaaa

(edited: Change Management. And it is confirmed that my name has been brought up to the attention and I'll be working closely under another manager's supervision. APA NI. MACAM MACAM LAH! Kot kot aku part time cybercenter, part time CM kot)

------

I've been listening to Collective Soul acoustic lately. Hey it helps for soul recollection. Har har har, ayat tak boleh blah. I own a 9 year old guitar and I STILL don't know how to play. I've been playing piano as well, naseb baik aku tak suruh mak bapak beli piano, tak de nya aku nak main dah. Haa haaa haaa

-----

I just realized all my phrases started with "I". Syiok sendiri betul.

------

I'm having a bad hair day today. So I'm moody, pissy and nonproductive. Eh sejak bila aku productive. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

-------

It's snowing in NC. Why the hell am I still not there

Picture cilok from Don's sis-in-law's myspace.

------

Wow, I'm really such a huge fan of Collective Soul.

I miss you lah busuk :(

Don Miller

If I were given a choice, today would be my day off. And so is tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after that..and after that..okay lah, I'd take the whole year off lah. Hahaha

But I had no choice.

I've been enrolled into a new project and I'm fully responsible for the arrangement of the workshop. Al-maklumlah, kuli batak. The site visit (more like a state visit!) yesterday sucked out the energy in me. Penat gilos!

My weariness pulled my mood down today and I went to work like an undead minion (ni kes banyak sangat main game WoW lah ni). Nothing seemed interesting to me. Nothing attracted me.

Until this..

12th December 1984

I stared at this for such a long time. That was when my sayang was born! I can see his tiny feet and his tiny fingers!! What a beautiful baby who evolved into a handsome man, wow!

Haaa haaa haaa.

Ok ok second picture..

The Millers (minus his 2 brothers)

Aww, what a beautiful family. From left to right: That's him, his mom (edited: That's his aunt!) , his sister and his dad.

...
......

Wait a sec..why was he wearing a spaghetti strap top...

Oh.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA


Next picture...

Anna and Don Miller

I beg to differ, that's Anna and Dawn Miller.

Har har har har harrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhahahaha


Fourth picture!

Don Miller

He was sooo handsome..err...pretty..err..cute. Hahaha!

Alamak, sayang, don't marah lah, I love you you know..but seriously, what's up with the long hair? I guess the mullet has grown huh?


Next!

Front lawn

Now, that's the Don that I know! The blond mullet, the pose, the shoes..

OMG. The shoes. That's soooo 80's/90's!!!


Moreee

Day care

I'm having a tough time figuring out which one's Don. It could either be the kid in the while shirt (with mullet, duh) or the kid in red with black shorts.

Sampai juling mata aku tengok.

But I'm guess it's the red shirt.

Right? Right? Right?...kan?

Alamak, matiler kena bamboo dengan Don sebab tak kenal mana satu.

(edited: YES! I was right! He's the kid in the red shirt!)


Next!

Smurf house

He still has the pose whenever he gets his pictures taken. Old habit dies hard huh? Haha

Look at the jeans man..so...rugged. Was this your Metallica era? (edited: Montly Crue era!)

His blondness has gone throughout the years. Now he's stuck with shit-colored hair. Har harhar!


Next..

Grandpa and Donnie

I'm not sure whether that was grandpa Petty or grandpa Miller. I'm guessing it was Petty...kot. (Edited: That's non-biological Grandpa Dennis Price)

You know I've been spending the last 30 mins trying to figure out who your grandpa reminds me of....you know who he reminds me of???

MY OWN GRANDPA!! Apak's dad.

Or probably old people look the same.

Last picture...

Cuteness

I purposely put this picture last because it's a perfect picture with a perfect ending (of this entry). He looks sooo adorable despite the bruise above his left eyebrow. (Edited: That's Donnie with his cousin, Bud Jr. or now known as Crow son of Hawk)

He still carries that adorable smile that could cure my bad days.



-----------------
I love you sayang!

And say thanks to your mother for uploading these pictures!

Oh nvm, I'll tell her myself! Hehe!

Randomization cont.

Fact 7
I'm a procrastinator in denial. I would like to believe that I don't procrastinate too much, but we both know that I do. I dunno man, it's a mood wave for me, one minute I can't wait to get it done, the next minute "ah, fuck it, I'll do it later".

Fact 8
I like to draw, but not really. I like to write, but not really. I like to play, but not really.

I seriously do not have a hobby. I'm a multigoer. Aku main belasah je buat what I think I enjoy at that time. Dulu I loved to paint, and I considered that as my main hobby, but now nak angkat pensel pon tak nak.

Dah memang aku ni dasar pemalas.

Fact 9
I have a secret personality which only exists in a secret life.

Heh heh heh.

Bunyik macam mysterious je kan?

But the fact is, it's true lah. Only Donnie and I saja tauuu. Biarlah rahsiaaa hehe

Fact 10
I hate driving. Betul lah. It's such a sad case that I have to be my siblings' driver whenever they wanna go somewhere, and I HATE it. Why can't they leave this sexy flabby ass alone and pegi naik taxi lah!!!

*marah*

Fact 11
I've been changing this blog's template so much lately and I'm starting to get real pissy. Yer lah, I was so attached to the previous template and tiba-tiba the host's photobucket dah exceeded the limit pulak. Babiks betul. So I had to change it AGAIN.

Fact 12
I bring my webcam to work because Don can't get enough looking at this pretty face..haaahaaa sila muntah sekarang.

Anyway, random conversations between me and him (with cam on while at work):

Random convo 1
Alia sitting on her cubicle, away from other colleagues with her cam on, drinking plain water, from an obvious looking non-alcoholic container.

Don: Whatcha drinking there baby?
Alia: Vodka
Don: *sniggers* Well I'm eating vodkaroni and cheese

Random convo 2
Don: Whatcha eating there baby?
Alia: Smarties yum yum yum
Don: *laughs out loud* Eating smarties to be smart at work huh? *gelak secara kejam*

Fact 13
I have a very kejam boyfriend. He's so kejam, I love it. Har har har.

He has a very potty mouth, very the laser and very the kelakar too. If you don't know him, you must have think he's a very arrogant sonnababitch. And if you don't know us well, you must have think we're very rude sebab excessive rude remarks; but the fact is that, we're a very loving couple, tender hearted and soft spoken.

HAHAHAHA. Eh biarlah aku berangan kejap.

Fact 14
I like to scratch my head. I used to cabut rambut, but since that incident where I was called "botak", so aku stopped lah. But I guess my tangan kembali menggedik, so instead of continuing that bad habit, I opted for something less damaging; iaitu menggaruk kepala.

Even Don noticed it dah, I thought I was being discreet enough so that my reputation won't be affected with a new nickname like "Monkey Ally" or "Alia si tangan gatal", tapi I guess my activity menggaruk kepala cannot hide anymore.

Maybe I'm so gatal (flirty) that my head is taking the blame. Har har har. eh kelakar lah. Tanak gelak sudah.

Fact 15
I used to chat in chat rooms using a fake picture. Well, plural, fake pictures. Yer lah, dulu kan low self esteem, malu lah mau tunjuk mukaku yang hodoh ini. The pictures that I used bertukar ganti according to the different names that I used. I was also multigendered. haha. Sekejap perempuan, sekejap lelaki, sekejap tranny. Sexual orientation jangan cakap lah, semua aku dah menyamar. It was so fun gaining friends this way.

But those friends semua aku campak keluar because it was obvious they only fell for the pictures.

Sekarang mana main lah chatting chatting ni. I have something real to focus.

Fact 16
I met Farah the biatch when I was 15 and we used to go to chat rooms and menyamar jadik omputehs. Haha. Masa tu I stopped using fake pictures dah, profile tak der picture. But we lied about our locations.

Hi, I'm Farah from Australia.
And I'm Ally from America.

Hahahah.

We used to go to Malaysian chat rooms, sebab diorng ni senang nak kena tipu. Lurus bendul betol. We used voice chat so with our fake accents, memang senang lah mau tipu orang. Accent si Farah tu tak menjadik sangat, sebab susah lah oi nak nyamar jadi Aussie, but for me it was easy peasy cause Don has a big influence on me.

Tapi kekadang terkeluar lah jugak accent melayu tu.

Tapi yang paling lawaknya when we both were trying to speak Malay on mic, dua dua kenkonon tak pandai sangat, so we had that accent melayu campur omputehs. HAHAHA lawakkkkkk gilaaaa. Ni aku tengah type ni pon tengah sesengih ingatkan balik.

Kesian semua orang yg kami tipu. Mintak maap yaa.

..NOT.

hhahahaaaaaa

Factual Numbers

Since I don't have any sensible topic (sejak bila aku punya blog topics sensible?) to write, meh lah aku tulis about myself walaupon dah sepuloh juta kali I've mentioned it.

*nari golek golek*

Fact 1
I dislike my job. Even though they have transfered me to another project, I still don't like it. But not until the point where I loathe it lah. Basically, I hate having to wake up every morning and I hate carving a fake smile to people even though I feel like spitting on them. Eh main ludah ludah pulak aku.

I'm still longing for that one day, where I don't have to wake up early and jump into a cold shower, where I don't have to drive myself to work to meet with people that I don't really like, where I don't have to strain my eyes in front of the computer to seek for information, where I don't have to call and deal with stubborn strangers, where I don't have to listen to office politics, red tape and..

(10 min break - had to call hotels for a quotation request)

See, I told you I hate working.

Funny is that I've never called any hotels requesting for a price quotation before. I had to message Shad to guide me through it. Har har har. Yer la, selalunya I had my kuli batak to do it for me, but since the project transfer, I AM the kuli batak.


Fact 2
I've been trying to lose weight for years and this year, I'm REALLY committing to it. Yes yes, mari gelak beramai-ramai. Anyway, selepas korang gelak, meh aku nak bagitau that I've been dragging my fat ass to jog every weekday after work and I've been limiting myself to eat only 1 serving (selalunya this mak gajah would eat 2 servings at least). And I've managed to skip dinner or have an early dinner (so that my digestive system can rest while I'm sleeping) and only have an instant packet of oatmeal for lunch (during work time).

Bagus kan? I'm so proud of myself. Hahaha.

I'm really hoping I could continue this regime because I really really really want to make a good impression for Donnie's parents. Tak lah diorg mengomel kat Don "wowzer u gf is fatness".

Hahahaha, lawak bernas.

And plus, I really really really want to buy that dress yang hanya mempunyai size L. Macam fucker tau Malaysia ni, baju semua cenonet, even my left tittay cannot fit. And the only section of the department store that can fit me, is the PLUS section, which doesn't have a lot of varieties. Baju macam opera cina, sleeves menggelebeh gelebeh, jalur jalur corak melintang, I mean wtf, I'm not fashionista diva, but kalau nak buat baju for PLUS SIZED people, why in the world would you design something like these?!

The reason why WE PLUS SIZED people would want to buy a nice outfit is 1) to have something that actually falls nicely on our bodies and 2) to have an outfit that actually makes us LOOKS FUCKING SLIMMER, not something that defines this pregnant gajah even more!!

Okay okay chill Alia. Chill.


Fact 3
I'm a shy person. I don't like to mingle around and make myself available for a chit chatty session. Despite my "friendliness" and though I like to associate with new people, I'm actually a very homely person. I'd prefer staying in my own comfort zone and be alone. But it's a different case when Don's around lah kan, obviously he's my favorite person and I need him to talk to.

Probably that's why lah he's always the big punchbag for my anger frustration. hahaha. No matter lah, I'm much comfortable being around him than being surrounded by tons of people.


Fact 4
I'm a very messy person, but I cannot stand being in a mess. Weird right? Take my room for example, it's a love hate relationship between tidy and tongkang pecah. One moment it's all tidied up, but the next moment, you can't even find my bed (ni exaggerate lah). I'd feel suffocated whenever there are too much stuff lying on the floor (like when Don was here, he left everything on floor!) but I'm too lazy to put things the way they were after I'm done with them. har har har.

I wish my room would clean itself up.

Haha, ni case malas campur mengada-ngada.

But surprisingly, my work desk is always clean. Probably secretly I'd want people to think I'm a very clean person sebab my whole family thinks I'm the girl who doesn't know how to clean up.

Boleh lah, kat rumah I'm Messy Ally, kat office, I'm Tidy Ally.


Fact 5
I'm ambidextrous.

..In the making. har har har. But seriously, when I'm tired of using my left hand, I'll use my right. That's a sign for ambidextrous kan? I can equally use both of my hands capabilities though I'd get slightly tired if I've been using my right too much.

But I play badminton with both hands. And I throw stuff with my right hand. But I need to use my left when I'm carrying heavy stuff.

Gila cool kan.

But it'd be much cooler if I can use my feet like the monkeys.


Fact 5
I'm very particular about toilets, public especially. I'm lucky to experienced different country's punya toilets and semua aku tak suka.

Most of the western countries, toilet tak der pipe, but they'd provide you with loads of paper towels (toilet tissue lah). Ada yang stand alone toilet where you have to coin in 40 cents baru pintu terbukak.

Most Asian countries pulak, toilet mesti tak der flush and toilet bowl mesti protruding from the group (toilet cangkung ya, they don't have sitting toilet). It's so weird of having you to straddle the bowl up off the ground. What happens if you slip and ends up sitting on your own shit/or someone else's? Geli tau. And to add to the horror, they don't provide you with flush!! They usually have direct pipes, but what's the use if there's no flush!?!? Most of the time you've got no choice but to use a hell of water to flush.

I HATE going to public toilets here in Malaysia because OMG THE SMELL. Semua toilets in other countries smell too, but not as bad as ours. I guess we've been eating too much petai and jering kot.

Bau membunuh.

Though I kinda like hotel's washrooms, but most of them terikut ikut style omputehs; pipe air tak der. I mean kalau ye pon nak cater for these mat sallehs, you're still in Malaysia, letak lah pipe, senang aku nak basuh berak. Ni nak basuk berak pon kena masuk bathtub, then geli lah aku nak berendam dalam bathtub.

The only toilets that I'm comfortable with are of course, the ones in my house, my aunts and rumah rumah orang kaya. Hahah gediks.


Okay lah, dah boring nak type. Will continue later.

Oh WOW

HOLY CRAP.

Wrath of the Lich King on World of Warcraft is AWESOME!!

Gonna play now. OK Bai.
