Not Exactly Back to the Future
Um, what year is this?
Well, I'll be damned. Ms Khaylis and Ms Yoga have tagged me to complete this self-reflection meme. Ok, I will do it, but be warned. I am not completely rationale because (1) my mind is already on weekend mode, (2) didn't get much sleep. Had sex last night.

yay mudsters! went to the gym for the first time in two weeks yesterday and diiiiiiieeed. but felt good to destress on the treadmill. left just as the gym was closing. lets chill this weekend. ta.
34 years old and filthy rich?
We all want that now, aren't we?
Heh Heh.
Damn... i'll be 34 in a year and a half... how to be filthy rich by 34? How?!?!
My only hope for instant richness is if the lottery ticket in my wallet hits the jackpot of RM9,000,000. We can dream right?
10 years too long I think... hmmm will spend more time here reading on the abhorrence towards celebs, royals and lawyers (ok lawyers I understand!).
Next time! Running on short leash right now, so just been blog hopping.
Cheers.
How "hot shit" exactly are we talking about?
Wohoooo, someone had been very very lucky. Penat lagi bro?
khaylis :
gosh, i always have fun with you on Sundays. and yeah, wished i had the pancakes when i drove back. need. pancakes. nowwwww... ;)
yes, yes, see you on the treads.
foxybabe :
it originally was 30 and filthy rich, but then again, i think that was a tad too optimistic. 34 is more achievalble, knowing that CEO's are getting younger by the minute!
sports freak :
dude, we can always dream, and why resort to gambling? tak payah, you're rich already man. pursuing something you love like sports is rich in its own nature. :)
zed :
hey pal, thanks for dropping by. :) your blog is good read. keep it up.
cherrybakewells :
hehehehehheheheheheheh... ;P
nais :
heheh...oklah memory. but the truth is, much has been censored. my blog is indeed PG13. ;P
yeah, i hope my venture is going to be cool. i am actually preparing for the worst (will tell you about it soon...)
samuraisepeda :
hahahahah...actually, i really don't know why i typed that out. remember, i was under lots of influence on that friday. ;P
and yeah, thanks for dropping by.
madnessinvain :
hahahhahah...today oklah. gosh, the things a guy would do to get laid, including lack of sleep. tsk tsk tsk. huhuhu...
silent :
hahahahhah...the shame the shame. when you think you know who you don't want to be with, at the end you realise you will always end up with a lawyer. aiyoooooo...
hey, it was great seeing you at the wedding.
ailin :
hey, thanks for dropping by! :) I was in Athens, Ohio because my Pa did his Masters there. had pleasant memories there; very carefree. Do you happen to know anybody from that part of the world? ;)
ailin :
oh my god!!! what a very small world. and yes, my family and i were there in 94 (only left to msia in 95). who was your friend?
and hahahahha you went to AHS? i didn't make it that far. went to Athens Middle School at uptown. (ahahahah...remember uptown area? or was it downtown? hahah...confused.)
elmwood...that's a really nice place to live. my family and i lived in this crummy (but quaint) house on richland ave. it's right across wendy's and mchappy's.
hahahah...i am becoming nostalgic now. missed the cupcakes at Oasis. The buttered popcorn at the cinema. and don't forget Msian nights and Halloween (if you haven't known, Athens is the 13ths scariest places on earth!)
