Maddy: Life of a Beach Bum & Bikini Babe Wannabe!

How strange r/s has become? Was reading the papers sometime last week and found out that our famous radio personality, Mr. Glenn Ong and Ms Jamie Yeo have broken up. I was pretty taken aback actually since they were so very much in love whenever I read about them in magazines etc. Moreover their wedding was like THE event of the year few years back. So when they announced that they were splitting up, I was pretty taken aback. But the shocking thing was not really that but rather Glenn getting it together with Jean Deanker! Hmm..well I do know that the radio world is smaller, as compared to the TV world but kinda like dating around the circle, hmm..isnt it a bit too close for comfort? 

And the funniest thing is that most of them are like dating one another. Friday’s New Paper even done up some family-tree like thingy, dating the DJ’s dating history! Hah. That is totally gossipy man. I can still remember when I did that family-tree like dating thingy was like back in uni days when everyone was like dating everyone else in school! 

The last I heard was that Jean was dating Mark Richmond’s bro and I guess they have split up which explains why Jean got together with Glenn. So there it was, both of them moving on. Glenn with Jean and Jamie with some ang moh guy whom he met at a Prodigy concert. And that ang moh guy is kinda cute I must say. : ) 

That was not really the alarming thing. The alarming thing being that both of them were like saying things about each other. First Glenn was like “badmouthing” Jamie in the papers etc. And now it is like Jamie’s turn since she is like on the cover of this week’s 8 Days. Gosh. You should have read the things that they have said about each other. Whatever happened to the love that they once shared? 

I don’t even know whether they should like bitch about each other in public since they are pretty much public figure and well-liked by most. So by bitching about each other, hm, I don’t think that quite reflects well. 

So whatever happened to the love that they once shared when they got married? Don’t ask me that. I guess love has become hatred for them. Or should I said for most couples who have broken up. Guess its pretty much a phrase that everyone goes thru after breakup. You used to love the person that you were with very much but when he/she does something that break your heart, hey the love that you had for him/her becomes hatred. Kinda scary I must say but this is how humans are very much. Its only after you have moved on, the hatred that you felt for the other person just died with time as well. Everyone has their own side of story and who is right or who is wrong? Well, that would be between the two parties who are involved. 

Yet again, who am I to judge Glenn and Jamie? 

Well, for the past few days, have been feelin happy. : ) Hm, you guys must be wondering like “what is keeping our dear Maddy happy eh?” Well, let’s just said that I have met someone really special. : ) 

Someone who has brought a smile to me every time I receive his msg. Someone who makes me smile secretly to myself when I think of him. Someone who makes me miss him when I don’t hear from him. Someone who makes me think of him every few minutes. Someone who makes me laugh with his impersonation of peeps around him. Someone who never fails to impress me with his knowledge of words and stuff. Someone who never fails to make me think “Hey I dinch know there is someone out there who enjoys and shares the lil things that I like in life.” : ) 

Had a first date with him over the weekend and surprise surprise, the date went really great. Seriously I dinch quite expect it to go so well. : ) So when it turned out to be much better, I was surprised and glad. 

It had been a really long while since I felt so comfortable with someone. And someone whom I can share almost everything wif. Especially on a first date. That is totally surprising for me. Can still remembered a comment that he made, “Hm, you have a normal voice.” Hee hee..well wat does he meant by that? Lolx. At that time when he said that, I was like a big “HUH” in my head. But he did clarified what he meant much later on. Hee hee..But hey that definitely sticks in my head. ;P 

Both of us being dog-lovers, or rather animal-lovers, we went for Marley n Me. Being easily touched by scenes where there are dogs, I almost cried when Marley died. Hee hee..But hey I managed to keep my cool. Hee ;P  If I was at home, I would have probably brawled my eyes out! =_= Still remember how we spent the rest of the nite talking about stuff that I never quite dreamt that I would be sharing with someone whom I have just met. Even though that came as a surprise to me, but hey I felt comfortable sharing. 

And to think that we share many many things in common. Like how we like being out of the sterotype of “chinese” back in school. Doing all the things that non-chinese would do. Hanging out and being best pals with the Malay dudes in school. Speaking their lingo. And enjoying similar things in life. I was surprised yet once again. 

So the date went past and I was looking forward to seeing him again. Not too sure if we would see each other again, I actually dropped hints, or rather straight-forwardly asked whether I would see him again. Hee hee..And lets just say the feeling was mutual. : ) 

So we talked over MSN and on the phone till wee hours of the nite even though both of us had to like wake up early for work the next day. Me aint complaining since I totally enjoyed talking to him. : ) 

And we met up again for our date last night. I was surprised when he bought me sour candies from Candy Empire. Actually I was more surprised about the fact that he remembered I like sour stuff. : ) 

Hm, how did the date went? Lets just say that I had some of my questions answered. : ) 

Hm, it has been a week since Ms Maddy hit the roads with her Xiao Huang. : ) So how have it been so far? Lets see..everyone at work is so excited about my car. Haha..everyone is like asking me to drive them out for lunch etc. But hey I have refused all requests as my parking still sucks as usual, so I wouldn’t want to stall traffic with my parking! Hee hee :P 

Driving on the roads is an experience! I am like learning new things every other day! But I do know of one thing. Experienced drivers like to bully p-plate! Gosh. They are like so rude lor. Especially taxi drivers. They are the worst! Besides the motorcyclists who are equally bad. 

Experienced drivers are like not giving way to p-plates at all even though u signal early! There were a few times when I tried cutting lanes and I did signal early but hey the drivers didn’t even slow down! Instead they even travelled like so much faster so that you dunch cut into their lanes! Gosh. That is totally horrible and uncalled for lor! Heh. Its not as if I dinch signal lor. Its more like they just purposely dunch want to let u cut. So evils. There were a few times that I missed my turn because of all these stupid nonsenses. But oh well, safety first. So if they dunch let me cut, then no choice, I just have to turn further upfront. No point challenging my safety with these cars. 

Seriously it wasn’t tt bad lah. There are nice drivers around as well. : ) Still remembered the first day when I was on my way back home from work. There were like traffic jam and a kind lorry driver actually let me cut into his lane. : ) I met him again the next day and he did the same thing too. Nice nice driver. : ) 

Also met a really patient driver. As I am driving manual car, so I had to like get my biting point right etc. So it happened that I accidentally let go of my clutch while my foot was on the brake so the car died. : ( Then I was like panicky and had to restart my car. But somehow it dinch manage to as the engine was jammed. Totally panicky but managed to stay calm so that I can restart my car. But the patient behind me, who was driving a Hyundai was really patient. He dinch even honked at me and waited patiently for me to restart my car. : ) I guess he knew that I was driving a manual car and was like having problems starting it. Hee hee..:P But hey he was really nice and when I finally managed to move off, I actually waved thanks to him. And I think he got fedup staying behind me, he actually overtook me at the front. Hee hee..well I wouldn’t blame him but he was really really nice. :D 

How I wish there were more drivers like him. : ) 

But I wouldn’t say the same for taxi drivers lor. They are so horrible. The same thing happened on Friday nite when I was driving along Holland to pick my mum. And I was honked like mad. Goodness. Cant they just be patient for once to  a p-plate driver?! Every driver was once a p-plate lor. Heh. 

And wasn’t the left lane a slow moving lane? Apparently I don’t think so eh? Every driver is like moving so fast on this lane and even honk at you when you move too slow? So ridiculous lor. But hey they want to overtake me, they go ahead man. But just don’t do that dangerously lor.  Like this evening, this stupid Hyundai van just suddenly cut out from his lane and into my lane. Luckily I was not moving too fast and I honked at him! Heh. Drivers eh. Always think that they can bully P-plates. Gosh. 

But I must definitely said that my car is an attention-grabber. Hee hee..whenever I drive the car, I have peeps like staring at my car and then at me. So pai s e h. hee hee ;P 

Everyone at work loves my car! Said that it is so bright and suits me. : ) Hee hee..but wat I hate most is the dust at my workplace! Now my car is like covered in a layer of dust. So dirty and horrible. But I am unable to wash my car since it was like raining for the whole weekend lor. Heh. And I have the brightest car at work! Hee hee..:P Can be sighted way from afar. Haha..:P 

To conclude, it aint that bad driving but being safe and alert is definitely important. : ) I am actually enjoying it and my parking? Well, lets just said that it is improving though it can be better. : ) I have yet to venture into very busy carparks coz I dinch want to stall traffic. So right now am visiting all the very empty car parks so that I can take my own sweet time to park. Hm, and I have yet to park in between cars coz I think that is the hardest. Still am parking in lots where it is empty next to it. Hee hee..:P 

Hmm..probably I should try to park in bwt cars at work huh? That would probably brush up my skills a bit? Hee hee..:P 

Am still enjoying driving. I like the feeling of being alone in the car and blasting my music and singing to it while I drive. Hee hee..:p 

So peeps, do honk or wave if you see a yellow car with a p-plate! :)
