danger gardens, woo~

I was bunny-hopping around online for a public transport how-to to PWTC for an event tomorrow and I found this on the official PWTC site.


See this?   ^ Taman Bahaya as opposed to Taman Bahagia. For the non-Malay speakers, it may not sound like it, but there’s hell lots of a difference mmkay! Because from Happy/Peaceful Gardens (Taman Bahagia), it’s been changed to Danger(ous) Gardens (Taman Bahaya).

Haha. Boob watch of the day. I wonder if Danger Mouse (remember Danger Mouse? And his eye patch?) lives in Taman Bahaya.

I vow never to undertake a project of such meticulous detail, ever again. For the first time in 8 years, ‘we’, as in, my family, have decided to re-paint the God-awful grilles and doors in the house because, well, dammit, it’s been 8 years.

Guess who the lucky painter is. Yup, just me.

I’d give my brother some credit (because he painted one coat of paint on one door, and did the base coat for the front grille) but each time after he paints he complains of being so tired he can die, and promptly drops off to sleep.

Today I painted for 6 hours straight (nope, not even a toilet break!) and now I’m aching all over.

I hate the sight of paint now. And I still have a long way to go. Gaah.

    Omg paint, so not fun. My parents made me paint my desk once and they ended up having to get the entire room painted again. :P

    meldee: ish! been a long time since you commented my way :) i don’t mind the smell of water-based paints *sniff…woooo~* but i hate the smell of this nasty solvent-y ones. plus they don’t budge unless you scrub away with turpentine. yeeeecccchh.

    Yer, I’ve been a little lazy lately :P

    I know what you mean by that smell. I think it’s spirit or something like that and it’s really annoying. That’s why I can’t even stay anywhere near when painting is going on. I hate the things that smell can do to my nose.
