MIL bought me anthuriums to add to my tiny collection of plants. Bertha and Roberto passed the one month test. Which means that they didnt die or dry out on me within the one month ive had them. :-)

So say hello to Tory.

I love you like chocolate and peanut butter brownies





Ive turned into the Domestic Goddess these past few weeks. (You know how Nigella Lawson can be all sexy and sultry, a little perasan, make simple food but edible? Well yeah im a little bit like that but with smaller boobs)
I cook dinner nearly every other night and ive even cooked brownies! from scratch. all on my own.

Of course its not like its gourmet cooking but hey one step at a time la kan?

apa yang penting kerjaaaa sama!

Tonight would you mind if i took off my halo?

I have two potted plants at home now. Roberto (not unlike Roberto Carlos.. and im not even a fan!) and Bertha. Cats are too heartbreaking to take care off , so i decided on greenery to make my day. Children you say? Oh they're just too much trouble and could be just as equally heartbreaking as cats :-P

------------------------------


So i was reading the newspaper today, and other than the fact that my alma mater is top 10 in the list of best schools in Malaysia, what attracted me the most was the news of that big shot movie producer Neo and his tales of infidelity ( man.. what a way to shoot to stardom. Ive never even heard of him before if it wasn't for this) His story was also told in the news last night and there was so much drama with reporters and fainting wives and shouting men.

I think men and woman have different definitions of cheating. To a man, normally its the physical relationship. To have sex, to touch, to kiss, that's only when they consider it being unfaithful. But to a woman, i think the scope of cheating is a bit wider. To have too close a relationship, to enjoy too much of another woman's company, to have an intimate dinner/lunch/meal of two, to go out for date's/movies, to lie, to hide facts, to name a few. It varies i guess from one woman to the other but basically thats the general rule.

In Neo's case, he has totally crossed all existing boundaries in a marriage. What amazes me the most is not him but how his wife's forgiveness towards him and how she was willing to face the media in order to help her husband. Of course she is not the first person to do it and i still wonder whether its just another publicity stunt but it still takes a lot of patience, courage and determination to do what she did.
And most of the time, when things like this is heared, not only in the news but among friends or acquaintances it still gets me thinking of who to blame. Whats good is in the end, both parties ( the cheating man and the other woman) have to suffer and face the consequences of what they have done but whats really bad about it, is how they have drag everyone around them into it. Innocent people who after one stupid mistake (which is not even theirs) , will have their lives changed in so many ways.
