What is it with this Old Spice?


I was first introduced to this man with the awesome body (*tingle all over*) a few days ago by my friend, Zety through Twitter. I thought he was hilarious. Not that he said anything funny, it's just that with his voice, his physique and the Old Spice hovering around, it felt like a somewhat weird combination. Have you guys ever watched the Old Spice advert? Let me share it here with you.




I know we don't have Old Spice here in Malaysia but this Old Spice has turned into some kind of a viral overnight fame from what I read. It all started from the one who portrays the man every woman dreams of, Isaiah Mustafa. I have no problem with him, of course. But I don't think I would buy Old Spice for my man any time soon. Why? The name itself is already a turn off. Do I want my man to smell like an old man who had too much spicy food for dinner? LOL! Can he be spicy even when he's old? 

I think I've had enough Spice in my lifetime. There were five - Posh Spice, Baby Spice, Sporty Spice, Ginger Spice and not to forget, Crazy Spice. LOL!!

Then, I read today on Yahoo! TV that despite the example of a perfect male body portrayed by Isaiah, the Old Spice sales are not making so well. Like I said, maybe the women are wondering should they get it for their men and risk having them turn into a spicy yet old man - thus an older sex life? LOL! Hey, we women think a lot OK? And the men, do you think men would like to buy anything that suggests they're OLD? If they name the product Hot & Spicy, maybe it'll be a better hit with the guys. Hey, names plays a big part in an everyday life, you know. 

What? Do you think Tom Cruise would get laid as much as he did now if he uses his real name - Thomas Cruise Mapother IV?

Still, I enjoyed the video clips. Hope you guys will too.

My Animal Friends..


In my lifetime I have come across many animals. Some are the big ones that are wild, some cute ones that you just feel like squeezing tight to your chest, some that can fly up in the sky, some that are slimy and make me shiver and some that I hope I will not come across in my lifetime like those weird Amazon animals that can probably swallow me whole in less than a minute.

Still, it never cease to amuse me when I come across the same animals that I've seen before. I have a soft spot for animals no matter if they're a big cougar or a small kitty. 

But firstly, I would like to write about this moth. 

Mr. Moth

I know moths are closely related to the butterflies, both being of the order Lepidoptera. The only difference is that butterflies are pretty, usually colorful and the wings are patterned whereas moths are just plain and simple. Although, I am not very sure what sort of moth this one is, this fella had been sitting on my bedroom door for hours. I wonder though, when the elders (orang tua-tua) used to say that when butterflies (or in this case, the relatives) comes into your house, then it means somebody you haven't met for a long time is going to drop by your house. And then those elders also said that if your eyelid is always tingling, then it also means you will be seeing someone you haven't met for a long time. Is this true? Two days ago, at the same time this moth is stuck to my door, my left eyelid can't stop tingling. It went on for two days.

One more thing about moths that I just found out is, they're not scared of people. I can touch the wings and Mr. Moth still stay at the same spot, not moving an inch. And then, yesterday morning when I was about to shower, I notice Mr. Moth is already sitting on my bathroom wall and he still didn't move even though the water from the shower head sprinkled at his direction. Normal butterflies would've flown away in a jiffy but not moths. Oh, wait, I hope this is not a fake moth sent by someone to take naked photos of me in the shower. LOL! 

And then, these kitties, they just complete my day yesterday.




After coming home to a really tiring and work-filled day, I had forgotten completely about Mr. Moth spying on me in the shower that morning. I was about to go to my room and lie flat on my bed when I decided to visit these three little kitties. They're just so adorable. They climb on me, giving me that look with the big eyes and all my weariness went away. There's just something about little living things right? Be it kittens or puppies or bunnies or babies. Sigh.. I wish I was a 5 year-old again. At least I won't be blogging about how sad and boring my life is of late.

More Italian Food! | Italiannies The Gardens


Like I said in my last post, I am not much of an Italian food enthusiast. But B-bunz, he really love Italian food and so, last weekend, I followed his stomach (things you'd do for those you say you love - LOL!) to Italiannies. As usual, we left late for lunch because B-bunz is not a morning person. It is really tough to get him up early in the morning. And one more thing that makes me want to slap his bum is when he changes the plan we made the night before on the morning itself just so that he can catch another wink or two. Again, things you tolerate for those you say you love...

Anyways, we went to The Gardens, planning to go see the movie Inception as well. But since we arrived at 2pm, the GSC Premier tickets for Inception are already sold out and only tickets after 8pm is available. *sob* This is what happens when you did not purchase tickets online. So people, DO NOT imagine you can get good tickets by queuing up on the weekends. If you arrive by 10am when they open the counter, then maybe you're safe. But after 11am, good luck. So, use your phone and reserve those tickets if you really want to watch something or better yet, just purchase them online!

So, B-bunz thought he'd leave it to our "good luck" later by checking out tickets at GSC MidValley after our lunch (I know that won't happen but I was just happy being out with him that day so I didn't complain much) and we went into Italiannies instead. 

It was so busy in there at that time of day. Nobody came to help us to our seats so B-bunz brought me all the way to the end corner near the window. He got a little pissed that nobody came to clear the table for us, yup, it was THAT busy. However, after a while, somebody came and cleared the table and we ordered our food. I remember I chatted online with someone the night before, who informed me he worked in Italiannies The Gardens. However, we did not exchange phone numbers or anything and I totally forgot his name - I am awful with names - so I was not able to say hello. LOL! Due to my handicap and also forgetting to keep the receipt, I've also forgotten the names of the food we ordered. So, I'll just put up the photos instead. LOL!

Not mine.

Mine.

As usual, while you wait, they serve the complimentary bread with Olive Oil and, hmm, I actually forgot to ask what's that blackish thingy they put in the Olive Oil. Anybody knows? Then came our clams which is absolutely yummy. After that, our drinks and then both our food arrived. I ordered this chicken with spaghetti and tomato sauce and B-bunz ordered the salmon fettucini. And we sat near the window so that I am faced directly towards the TM Tower. If only it were night, I'm sure it would've seemed more romantic.



However, 2 hours later, romance was the furthest thing on my mind. I was super full - I am not a very big eater so, we ended up packing half of B-bunz's fettucini while he helps himself to half of my second chicken and spaghetti. *burp* I was disappointed though that I wasn't able to catch the movie Inception with B-bunz that day. I SO want to go see it! This weekend perhaps?
