Pet Peeves

There are so many blogs out there these days. I for one who spend alot of time on the Internet doing utter nonsence (Facebook) sometimes tend to wonder off into the blogging world. Such as now. I read blogs for the fun of it and I blog just because. Everyone is pouring out their creativity into what they write in their blog but the one thing that annoys me the most is when they do not use proper grammer and English. I simply cannot stand it. I am OCD.

Some I have read, they try to make their blog sophisticated by using improper grammer. Alot of Malaysian bloggers make this mistake. Not just any mistake but very simple mistakes. Like when to use "is" and "are". Where to punctuat sentences with the "S".

I know they are trying but it irritates me till no end. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE brush up on your English before attempting to write ever again. There is a difference between speaking and writing. Have you not learnt anything from school?

Then comes the defence : "Well it's my blog, I'll do and write whatever I want." Of course you can do whatever you want. But at the end of the day, what happens when you actually have to use proper English and grammer in the real world? How does that help you?

Thinking of all the blogs I have read with horrible English, *shrudders*. I may have offended some people, I may have not. It's either they are oblivious to their own mistakes or is now embarrased about it. Please, for your own sake, brush up on the English language before attempting another blog entry. And to those who have done well, I applaude you.

Restless

I am feeling so restless right now. It's 1 AM and usually I will be watching TV my downloaded shows. But since I figured out how to work the Internet on my notebook I am in limbo about watching my shows on surfing the net. I usually will not get a chance to this hour coz the GWB is at work with his notebook.

Even though I have my notebook with me, the Internet connection was limited and couldn't figure out why. Finally decided to power cycle the modem to reset the settings and voila. INTERNET. Only took me a month to figure it out.

So right now even though I still have shows to watch, I wanna surf the net and yet I wanna watch my shows. Not forgetting the games that I hacked off the net to play. I am fickle minded but I know I will end up on the Internet. Then again my notebook is so ancient hence very slow. It's already seven years old can you believe it?

Who knows maybe I will be out here in the living room all night until the GWB comes home from work. After all its only five more hours. Yes I have pulled an all nighter to only get yelled at in the morning when he is home. Back at the HWM HQ.

On a side note, this blog looks so plain without pictures. I used to be so OCD (wait, I still am) with posting pictures up here. But it all needs to be photoshopped and blah blah blah, so that's when the procrastinating comes in. Maybe one day.

I Am Legal Now

With green card and all. Well not all. Tomorrow we are heading to the social security's office to get me a social security number. Once it's all done then my life here officially begins. Work. I am kinda looking forward to working here but I don't know what it's like. I guess I will find out soon.

A Place of Our Own

FINALLY. We have an apartment all to ourselves. I am enjoying the peace, quiet and the number one reason: CLEANLINESS. No one to pick after. No dirty dishes lying around everywhere. I can do shit I want. I know it will be my mess and I don't have boys around anymore. I feel almost grown up. Living alone and together with the GWB.

We have a one bedroom apartment. I love it. We have the freedom to do whatever we want with it. So we went to Ikea (as the GWB calls it: Asian temple) to look for stuff that we can eventually have at the apartment. What have we bought so far? NOTHING. Tempted to buy everything of course but I don't think that will be a possibility.

We are slowly settling in. Had the Internet installed a few days ago. As this is a must. Fuck cable. I can download all the shows we need off the Internet anyway. But yes, the bliss of having our own place, this will definitely save us alot in the long run.

The Insomniac and Procrastinator

Yes it is I. I have become one these days. I am unable to sleep until the wee hours in the morning. What do I do to kepp myself awake?

1. Have no job. (This is a must in order to do the following)
2. Play computer games.
3. Play silly little flash games on Facebook.
4. Sleep really late. (Preferably before the GWB gets home from work.)
5. Wake up when half the day has gone.
6. Repeat.

See how pathetic I have become? I keep telling myself that I need to go to bed at a decent time but I don't ever listen to myself of course. Or to the GWB for that matter. With all the time I have you'd think I update here more often, one word comes to mind. L-A-Z-Y.

I just don't have the bug in me anymore. I would like to photoshop the pictures that I have taken and intend to put them up here. But when time comes to it never happen. As of now, there's even a pile of clean laundry in the basket that needs to be put away. Of course it will be there as I am a big procrastinator.

Done and Done

For the past few weeks my parents were here. I recall all the hoo haa in for getting them here. Rushing the paper work for homeland security. Sending papers back and forth to my parents. When everything was done, they were here for two weeks. Hectic and chaotic but nonetheless fun two weeks. All talks and anticipation for the reception came and went. And now, everything is dwindling down.

We are waiting for a year or so to pass, getting the green card done and then we will head home for a second round of marriage chaos. For now we are looking into moving into a place of our soon. Hopefully soon and I can enjoy the bliss of independance. No more living with boys who drive me up the wall and place to call our own. Until then I am also waiting back from homeland security to give me a green light for employment.

A Month In

We made it into a month of being married to each other. It still doesn't feel like we've been married. Maybe coz everytime we see each other we are already living with together. So the feeling to living together now seems like nothing. How crazy this is? Time flies by so fast. Next weekend my parents will be here and then the following weekend we are having a reception up at my MIL's place.

And in just a few more days it will be my fifth month here. Paperwork has all been submitted in and I am now legal to live here. But it was adviced to not leave the country. Hey I have no problems with that. I am really enjoying it here to a certain extend. Just that we don't have a place of our own yet which sucks. Hopefully in a years time or so we will.
