It's 2.25am and I was tossing and turning thinking about the 3 Big Apple donuts still in the fridge.
I decided to put myself out of my own misery and eat one of them, and I still can't sleep so here I am. Also, my latest obsession is keeping me up - reflective stickers!
Ok, actually, it's creating stuff that's keeping me up....all the things I want to do when the time comes that I'm actually free to do all of it....and working out by walking out is one of them.
Getting back to the reflective sticker business. I'm a busy woman, as you well know, so the only time I get to walk Bugs is really early in the morning before getting ready for work and after dinner, so it's relatively dark outside both times, and it's all I have to do to dodge speeding cars and try not to get killed in my own neighbourhood, so I've been giving a lot of thought about the creative ways I can be seen in the dark.
Trolling the internet provided many expensive solutions; trolling the nearest Ace Hardware store provided others. Because I didn't want to wear a bright neon highway vest a la pekerja JKR, I came out of there with a roll of bright orange reflective tape and less rm 13 in my pocket, and I just knew things would get interesting. So I carilah benda nak stick the tape onto - the leash, my dilapitated Nike Airs, and in the last 3 hours, tossing in bed trying to sleep...I have fashioned, in my mind's eye, the perfect reflective sash - very much like the ones worn by Miss Universe pageant contestants...
Ok, so here's where you wonder, "waaah Shazmin has lost it, man!"...no lah, I have no latent desire to compete in any beauty pageants, though many years ago in primary school I did fashion a prefect's tie from my blue school pinafore belt. I really really have nothing better to think about than this.
I'm going to post a picture of my modified glow in the dark shoes tomorrow night - if I still can't sleep!!!

Hi Shaz, love your blog but when the HELL are you and Richard going to come back on breakfast radio lah!?? I really can't stand the three no talent gits on mix right now. I have switched to Fly fm. Heck! I'd rather listen to the sound of traffic than Ika's crap voice and lame comebacks! What a complete waste of time. Please come back and what's this business of having time for Kindermusik????!
Now, now....no need to be like thaaaaat... there comes a time in everyone's life when we want to slow down and do more meaningful things in our lives....and Kindermusik happens to be just one of them! ;-)
Better luck with your breakfast show selection. Life's too short to be so negativelah wei... Thanks for stopping by!
BTW, are you an anti-fan club or something???
Wahhh!!!! can't wait to see those reflective shoes!!! You can either make them look like those expensive school shoes during our time which have those silver reflective pieces on them or if you want, what about making them look like Dorothy's ruby shoes!!! "There's no place like homes...click, click, there's no place like home...." Bwaahahahahaha!!!
you like?!! I'm so proud of my creative efforts here that I'm looking for MORE stuff to make glow in the dark....
hey Shazmin! I love your blog and I'd rather read it here than at the mix website.
I have a question though that i hope would not offend you.Are you a muslim?coz i'm quite confuse.
again,i'm really sorry if this question offend you
Hi beautiful.me, thanks for dropping in!
To answer your question...no, I'm not offended, but it's such a strange question to ask! Why are you confused? :-)
hey shazmin,thank god you are not offended or anything,i'm a bit confuse since you don't look like a malay however your name is a malay name and I saw your post with pic of tok aki who preety much looks like malay =),so i assume you are a malay.However,i've read a post about a new dog you have.so,unless if i missread or something,i'm a bit confuse there.
aaah...my dear...do not be confused. I am an avid collector of unwanted pets. I am a celebrator of Hari Raya, Christmas and Hari Wilayah...I am a devoted wife and mother. I will soon be a yellow-face woman!...but do labels matter? Noooo.....so child, do not be confused...(read it like pastor john!)
hehehehehe, nice answer.
Shaz, I also cant wait for you and Richard to team up together. It's irritating to listen to mix breakfast nowadays and i switched to light fm out of no choice. Driving in the morning is not the same again without your voices. Any chance of you all coming back together?
Hi Rainbow.....I'm going to let you in on a little secret....the reason why I've started blogging here, independent of the mixfm website, is because....
jengjengjeng!...I'm leaving! I think 10 years (actually 9 on the mix breakfast with Richard alone!) doing the same thing is a long time and I want to do other things now. I have another month at MIX. After that, my little family will be travelling and I will be starting new projects here and there. I'll keep you guys posted.
Nooooooooooo!!!!! Say it isn't so Shaz!!!!! Why????!!!! Why are you leaving us!? I feel so betrayed! Ai yoyo, that means I better get an ip[od for my car laaah.....
Whatever you do, my DH and I will miss you a lot, we grew up listening to you and Richard and it's a sad day for radio that you're leaving. sobsob! Please reconsider?????!!!!
