When Oct comes.

I had my fringe cut to be something like SNSD's Tiffany:

I'll be working towards it step by step, all before October.

Korean war 'may break out at any moment': North Korea

GENEVA (AFP) - – A North Korean diplomat said Thursday that tensions on the Korean peninsula were running so high over the sinking of a South Korean warship that "war may break out at any moment."

In a speech to the international Conference on Disarmament, Ri Jang-Gon, deputy permanent representative for North Korea at the United Nations in Geneva, blamed the "grave situation" on South Korea and the United States.

"The present situation of the Korean peninsula is so grave that a war may break out at any moment," he said.

International investigators on May 20 announced their findings that a North Korean submarine had fired a heavy torpedo to sink the warship, in what has been described as the most serious act of aggression from the North since the Korean war 60 years ago.

Forty-six South Korean crew died when the warship sank near the disputed Yellow Sea border with the North in March in mysterious circumstances after a reported explosion.

South Korea has announced a series of reprisals including cutting off trade with its communist neighbour.

The North has denied involvement, and responded to the South's reprisals with threats of war.

Ri reiterated that North Korea had nothing to do with the sinking.

He claimed that North Koreans "were making their utmost efforts to attain the goal of a powerful and prosperous country by the year 2012" and needed a "peaceful environment" to do so.

"A peace treaty is the only successful and reasonable way for the denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula," he added.

The two countries have never reached a peace agreement since the 1950-53 war, relying on a tenuous Cold War era armistice.

However, he also warned that the North Korean people were "ready to promptly react to... various forms of tough measures including an all out war."

US Defense Secretary Robert Gates said on his way to an Asian security conference in Singapore that the United States and South Korea may hold additional military exercises in response to the alleged torpedoing of the ship.

Gates said there were no plans to deploy a US aircraft carrier as part of the exercises.

He was due to hold talks on the incident with his South Korean and Japanese counterparts.

In Geneva, the North Korean diplomat accused Seoul of trying to ignite a campaign against Pyongyang with an "anti-DPRK" policy intent on destroying exchanges and steps to reconciliation.

"The results of investigation made by South Korean regime is sheer fabrication based on assumptions guesses and supposition," said Ri.

South Korea's delegate retorted that the incident was a grave violation of the armistice agreement," adding that the evidence of an attack was "undeniable".

He said the statement in the UN's permanent arms control forum appeared to have been made "for propaganda purposes."



This is so ridiculous. What's up with fighting amongst yourselves?

But then again, even Thailand, a Buddhist country, can have such severe internal riots, what more the Koreans?

Bless them with an open heart to forgive.

I Miss Cats so.

I was the appointed chef for today because my maid was busy cooking octopus.

(From top left, clockwise:deep-fried potato-luncheon meat with tomato paste, whole-piece sambal egg, sambal kangkong & bak kut teh for soup)

I managed to cook a simple fare after not cooking for some time.
I think cooking is a set of natural skills for me, as I helped out my dad since I was ten. Tonight's food proved that I still HAVE IT.
& Gilbert can probably attest to my cooking, as he used to be my guinea pig in secondary school.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Since I'm so free, I watched the Victoria Secrets' Fashion show 2009 just now. I'm a girl/lady/woman, but I find myself oogling at Miranda, Alessandra & even the pregnant Heidi! DARN, those women are hot!

Still bored, I went to watch Youtube videos of kittens + puppies!
When I saw those kittens, I was like OMGOMG! SO CUTE!! I'm instantly reminded of how we first met the Mother Cat (MC)at my old place.
After a few months, she became pregnant & gave birth to 4 kittens which we named: Ah Pui, Ah San, Ah Black & Ah Grey. Yeah, I know these names are so......CHEENA & noob, but to us, it was easy & affectionate.
My favourite?

Of course Ah Pui la. I realised I love things/furry animals that are male,fat & cream in colour. Ah Pui's like that, & Cartoon too!
I watched how those 4 kittens first slept in MC's arms, how she fed them, when they first opened their bright shiny eyes, their first walk. Sighs, this is such a walk down memory lane...
My dad liked the kittens alot, because apparently they brought him luck. It became a habit that he would buy fresh whole fishes (I don't know how to name them)in a carton to feed them as they grew older. Those nasty/naughty kitties soon learned to paw each other, to mew & I loved them all.

Ah Pui's favourite expression?



ME (just return home from school): AH PUI!! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH TODAY! COME GIVE ME A BIGGGGG HUG!
Ah Pui (thinking): WA LAO EH. THIS GIRL EVERYDAY SQUEEZE ME UNTIL I'M GOING TO TURN INTO MY BROTHER'S SIZE (AH SAN). OKAY, TRY TO IGNORE HER, MAYBE IF I IGNORE THEN SHE CAN'T SEE ME.*

Sighs, those were the days.

When the kitties grew up to be full-fledged cats, they often ran around the neighbourhood because we stayed in a landed estate. My maid will just have to *krick krick* the thongs & all will come sprinting back for their fish.
Then the MC came back pregnant again, & this time she gave birth to 2: Tiger & Squeaky. The names match them to a tee. :)))

I watched all of them grow up, like a mother in my own way. I'd carry each of them one by one & ask them how was their day, why their face so du lan (Ah Pui only la. I think it's the main fixture & only emotion he has, lol.) etc.
At times, I'd be the one preparing their food. Preparing 7 fishes at one go aint easy, okay.


Then all of a sudden, they disappeared one by one. MC was the last to leave.
I tried searching for them in the neighbourhood, but didn't manage to find, not even Ah Pui.
We were so worried that they might have become Cat Curry (!!!!) as there was a house at the corner re-building, with many bangla workers.

Perhaps they were taken by SPCA, but we had collars for a couple of them & even called to check with SPCA. NOTHING.


Sighs...I miss having them around.


Xoxo.

Reality check a' demain.

I'm heading to the hospital tomorrow morning to collect the CT scan results.

Depending on what it'll be like, I feel like swimming or rather, drowning myself.

LOL, nah I'm just kidding.
I just like how swimming makes us feel carefree.



I'm going to daydream now! Goodnight!

.

I feel....

Like shit.

Seriously.
I mean, besides the pain, fear, then followed by discomfort from the CT scan, my right arm vein is swollen & blue-blackish.



Basically, I freaked out today.
I also cried when the damn needle was inserted & screamed when I saw the blood.
I tried to act cool when I was pushed into the machine because i thought they'd have a camera on me, but deep inside when the heat rush started, I was on the brink of tears.


But meeting up with my girlies for Sex & the City movie was the most AWESOME thing that ever happened today.
Thank you, darlings. :)))))))
