Phone Scam

Phone scams are really getting out of hand. Perpetrators are still using their same old tactics on unsuspecting victims. This happened again today ( 25 August,2014), around 4.50p.m. The perpetrator called for the first time 20 minutes earlier, asking for my derp. Derpina, thinking that it was some credit card pusher, said that he's busy and told the caller to call back later (mistake number one. Never tell the caller to call back. Just cut them off). The diligent perpetrator called back exactly 20 minutes later. He asked to speak to derp. Derpina passed the call to Derp. The perpetrator then proceeded with his plan. He told Derp that he is calling from AM Bank. He then elaborated that Derp has an outstanding housing loan of over hundreds of thousand with AM Bank. The reason for that call is to collect the outstanding debt. Derp then asked the caller, where is the house? The caller said that it's in PJ, some SS something(mumble). He quickly drift to another topic saying he is actually from a company called *something Kudrat Partners & Co in Butterworth ,assigned by AM Bank to be a debt collector. He doesn't have particulars of the location of the house. Some lady by the name Zainab gave him the list of names and numbers to contact. Derpina, was already fuming at the side snatched the receiver from Derp and started screwing the caller. The caller started defending himself and told Derpina that he is just doing his job. After a long period of cursing, the caller managed to calm Derpina down. Derpina told him that they are pensioners and don't have any business with AM Bank ( mistake number 2. Never give them any kind of details about yourself. The perpetrators can start plotting and extrapolate from there). She then asked him whether banks give out loans to pensioners. Derpina, being stupid, started telling the caller that they only have bank account with Tiger Bank. The caller was very quick. He said to her " then you better go to the National Bank to confirm since your name is already blacklisted". Derpina thought that the caller was being very helpful started apologising for swearing earlier. She then asked for his name and contact number. He told her his name is Johnson Kaur (don't know whether it's real) and his number is 3904003. He told her to contact AM Bank HQ at 03-20581907. So, Derpina thanked him and hung up. She wanted to dial the given number to conform with AM Bank. Derpina's daughter Derpette, stopped her. Derpette then looked up AM Bank's number from Google. It is a toll free number 1300 80 8888. Derpina called that toll free number and was directed to the customer service personnel, izham. She related the situation to the personnel and reiterated that they( she and her family) have never had any business with AM Bank. She asked the personnel to check. The personnel told her that since she doesn't have any account or business with the bank, she should just ignore the call. It is a scam. And they have received several calls on the same issue. It's appalling that even with Personal Data Protection Act 2010, customer particulars are still being misappropriated. Are controls lax in banks and telcos?

Toilet Exibition

Where should you go for the school holiday? How about a trip to the toilet? Sounds fun. (Poker face ) You even get to dress up as a piece of shit and slide down the giant toilet bowl. =.=|||

           People are getting weirder by the day. Never been happier to be shitheads.

More

My stomach suddenly decided to become a scumbag today. For no apparent reason, I've been purging non stop. I just got out of the washroom, a few minutes later, i need to run to the washroom again. I've been in and out of the washroom so many times that my butthole hurts. (Too much details).

Blond

Blondes just have all the fun. 

Double 2

In addition to the double ulcers on my throat, I now have two more add ons. They are like tears at the side of my mouth. Again on both sides. Hurts so badly each time I move my mouth. Worse when I eat. It becomes mother of all pain when come in contact with food. Applied oral medication to the "tear-like" areas but still not healed. Why didn't I get something better like strike lottery twice? Or have two husbands? Just kidding about the second part. But I do hope that I do strike lottery more than once. 

Double

There is a saying that goes "good things come in pairs". Isn't it? Well, I suppose the same applies to bad things. There are two ginormous ulcers on both sides of my throat. Thank you ulcers for always appearing in my life. Thank you for being loyal. 

MH17

I have not written about the tragedies of MH 370 and MH 17, namely because, it seems like an attention seeking act. It is also pretty pointless to repeat everything that is already reported in the news. It is also because, I'm no expert in aviation and forensic investigation. And writing a condolence message on a page that no one reads is rather silly and it screams attention whore. Reading about these tragedies is shocking and upsetting. No one person deserves to die in such manner. No individual has the right to determine the destiny or fate of another person. At times like these, it makes one wonder, why is god unfair? Is there even a god? Why didn't god do anything to stop these tragedies? Anyway, I was informed that a former schoolmate's husband is one of the victims in MH 17. Another schoolmate also lost her cousin in MH 17. As hippocratic as it may sound, after the whole description above, I can only say, deepest condolences to those two schoolmates.

Bionic Woman

I can't belief it. My compact foundation case just broke. And I just opened a new kit. I'm frantically searching for a case to store my new compact foundation so that it doesn't dry up. Fml. Seriously, why do I have bionic hands? To be fair I was really gentle in handling the case. The case is just to flimsy. Why do you make such flimsy cases Laneige? Not to mention the puff made me spotty and it's just the first usage. This is not the first time I turned into a spotted smurf on the first application. Happened with the first kit as well. Had to buy replacement puff because the puff that came with the package ripped within several times of usage. I'm talking about light dabbing only. 

Lending Money

Recently, a famous blogger Timothy Tiah wrote an entry on whether to lend money. He mentioned something like weighing whether that person who is asking is a close friend or an acquaintance. But in some cases,you don't  have a choice. It is easier to turn down someone when it's through a phone call. However , how do you turn down someone when that person comes to your place to ask you to lend money and refuses to leave unless you give them money? That just happened to my dad. My dad loves to give out our home address. People treat our place like a hangout spot. They only come to my dad when they want something from him. Other than that, they couldn't give a flying f*** whether he's still alive. You don't see all these so call friends on other occasions. No one pays him a visit when he's in hospital. They only remember him when they are in trouble. Back to the story. This guy came to the house out of the blue and stayed for hours. Finally, he showed the main intention of his visit. He whispered to my dad asking for money. Without a second say, my dad wobbled to get money for him. I'm not against helping people in need. But it's just sickening that people take us for granted. Being nice does not get you anywhere.

Midas

Think I should get a lottery ticket today. Had a Midas moment. There were some lovely, red, fresh rambutans in the kitchen. I picked one from the bag, placed it on the chopping board and cut a slit on the skin. Peel the skin off and saw a worm wriggling on the flesh. Threw the fruit into the dustbin. Picked another fruit from the bag. Cut it open. Found several worms wriggling on the fruit. Threw it into the dustbin again. Just to note, the skin of the fruits show no sign of the fruits being rotten. In fact the fruits weren't rotten. They were in perfectly good condition but just with additional worms as toppings. I picked another rambutan from the bag. Cut it open to find a couple more worms wriggling on the otherwise really nice flesh. I'd actually cut a worm in half when cutting the skin. Threw the third one into the dustbin as well. When others pick a fruit from the bag and peel the skin, no worms were on the flesh. Sweat. Seriously, speechless. Just a Midas touch moment.
