This is hilarious.
On a serious note now, take a look at Point 7 under Question 424 for explicit political content.
As quoted from the MICA website:
“QUESTION NO. *424 FOR ORAL ANSWER”
Were they expecting answers of any other sort?
Now, is it only me or was it also one of the most explicit things you’ve ever heard? Talk about explicit contents.
And here I am refraining from writing that I had thoughts of jumping his bones as it might be construed as “explicit political content.

There’s something about the wee hours of the night that becomes me like a second skin.
That unbecoming silence, that deathly stillness, the smell of the night dew, the feeling of being completely alone.
The odyssey of space and silence.
Wrapped in my toasty quilt. Wrapped in thoughts of all colours. Dark. Light. Feeling like I am standing all alone in this world.
The vulnerability is strangely enabling. It makes me want to shake my fist at the world. It makes me want to shout out loud with all the fury I could muster.
Unsettling, …

The Munchkin in her uniform and her favourite blue Chinois slippers.
She’s getting too cute for words. God help me before I die from an overdose of cuteness…
And she’s such an incorrigible little con artist. Just yesterday, she wanted to tickle her dad’s palm and told her dad that she “wanted to give him some coins”. And promply tickled his palm after he held out his hand for the “purported coins” and ran away giggling some.

I got this in gmail today:
Rachel,
As a top-scorer on Tickle’s IQ Test, the in-depth analysis of your IQ score is FREE.
Now I am thinking, do they send this out to ALL the people taking their tests?! The cynic in me talking.

On a bitchy note, the aural atmosphere of our office has been frequently peppered with “Mish XXX’s offish goo morning”, “Mish XXX’s offish goo afsernoon” and all manners of other “sh”s. Apparently someone thinks replacing her “s”s with “sh”s is a great way to cover up for dropping her “s”s. If only each one of the polka dots on her shirt can substitute for a “s”.

I don’t know which is more offending, the polka dot shirt or the VPL on a drooping ass.
Bleah.
Got a nice buffet spread in the office …

I indulged in S.E.X.
No not vertically, not horizontally, but involving some unglamorous squats, stuffy rooms and a dodgy looking warehouse. Yes, Stash Enhancing Experience. What were you thinking… heh.
Anyway, all rived up from the very infectious feedback from Jean, I promptly took half day and moved forward my appointment with Karen, which was supposed to be on Sat morning. I just couldn’t wait anymore. And it was not disappointing. I got gorgeous Dimensions Kits, unbelievably priced sea blue linen and golden speckled aida, vintage fairy vellum,, Mirabilia and Lanver&Lace charts …

I just don’t get it. How can anyone go to work without showering? Or being appropriately groomed. Or looking like something even the cat wouldn’t drag in.
Being well groomed and looking sharp would be the least anyone could do in terms of professionalism, apart from ,of course, having the requisite knowledge and competency. I personally find it affronting when people can come into the office with unwashed hair or worse unkempt clothes. Style, or rather, lack of style is another hairball. What’s with the polka dot shirt with power shoulder …

There are parents choosing not to vaccinate their children with the MMR jab simply because they believe that it will cause their child to get autism. Even after numerous research done and results refuting the said claim (just search google) there will STILL be those who get all woolly and uptight, insisting that their child became autistic because of the jab.
What’s the statistics like? Where’s the research done to support your claim? These were the most basic questions that came to mind (yes,me being the perfectionist I am), as opposed …

Woke up at 6am, wanting to go back to sleep. What’s new. Fixed brekkie for Germaine then woke her up. That girl is such a grouch in the morning, like me. Tied pigtails for her, then sent her downstairs for the school bus. Then the whole rigmarole of housechores and food preparation before taking a shower.
Feeling girly this morning. Even my choice of outfit reflects. Cream-coloured pinpoint camisole with lace trim. Camel shrug. Vintage cream A line pin striped skirt. My darling Hansa Jaeger calfskin toffee brown tote. Brown leather …
