Cik Panda Dibelakang Ice Box

After the first date HERE, we met a few days later at a mamak shop after I'm done with gym and he's done with futsal.

As usual, we were laughing and talking. Teasing and flirting is a must when suddenly he said

"You know, you are laughing and joking but deep down I can feel that you are actually sad. Like you are hiding something."

"What makes you say that?"

"I don't know. It's just that I can feel this vibe from you. I can see it in your eyes that you are sad. You can tell me you know."

Speechless sekejap Cik Panda. I don't know what to say because I don't actually know what makes me sad. It's combination of a lot of things and happenings for the past few months or even years.

Then he asked me "What actually do you want?"

How do I tell him that I'm scared that he will turn out to be like most of the guys I've met, a JERK? You think you found someone you connected with then suddenly they go MIA.

I like being friends with him, working out together and I enjoy the companionship. How do I tell him I'm scared of losing a friend like him? As much as I like my freedom, it's nice to have a companion once in a while.

Or how do I tell him that I'm sad because although there could be a million guys chasing after me but I only want one person and that person is ignoring me?

So I told him this

"I want a partner in crime. You know, someone I can talk to, laugh with, do things with, like a best friend but with that physical attraction. Not boyfriend or that kind of stuff."

"So you want a friend with benefit?"

Noooo. FWB sounds degrading. Actually I'm kinda confused myself. I want all the perks of having a boyfriend but I dread the commitment part, of heartache, stress, anxiety and jealousy.

He gave me a hug and apologized, seeing I was quite upset.

"Why do you apologize? It's not your fault."

"I feel that I need to. And I'm sorry if what I said or did made you sad or made you think I'm like the rest."

He really scares me you know. Because he can see right through the facade that I put up.

We were at the counter paying for our food, and I was ready to pay for mine when he said

"Can I pay it for you?"

Awww. See what I mean? Susahlah Cik Panda macam ni.

And then when I was at the gym locker room, these two girls were talking. One of them is quite young, early twenties and the other probably late twenties. On few occasions, I've often heard this young girl gave another lady advice on boyfriends and I was like

"OMG. you are so young and you are advicing an older person. What do you know about man by the way. Duhhhh."

So they were chit chatting and I could only hear snippets of their conversation

"bla bla..It's a good excuse for shopping. But my boyfriend don't understand."

"ya! I told my boyfriend the other day. bla bla bla.."

"Same! My boyfriend said this and that. bla bla bla bla...."

Cik Panda perlahan-lahan bergerak ke belakang, tutup lampu dan duduk di sudut locker room, dalam gelap sambil mengenang nasib diri....

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus. Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks. Butt cheeks are absolutely NO NO except at the pool or beach when you are in your swimsuit. Cik Panda tak jealous la uols sebab Cik Panda tak hingin pun nak ada bontot yang jelly welly tu.

Manusia Dua Alam

Pernah jumpa tak manusia yang indah khabar dari rupa? Ataupun manusia yang dalam sosial media adalah seseorang yang sangat menarik hidupnya, melancong sana sini, kelihatan peramah dengan cerita-cerita pasal orang sekeliling dia tapi dalam kehidupan sebenar, agak sendu dan krik krik? Pernah kan? Inilah manusia dua alam dimana alam maya dan alam realiti dia berbeza umpama langit dan bumi. Ada seorang manusia ni, kita namakan dia XX (bukan nama sebenar). XX ni sering update cerita panjang lebar dalam sosial media dia. Satu gambar dia upload selalu disertakan dengan karangan 2 mukasurat. Ada sekali dia upload gambar makanan yang diberikan rakan sekerja dia. Mulalah karangan 2 muka surat dia menceritakan mak si anu masak makanan lebih sikit untuk dia, si polan pun bagi makanan. Betapa murahnya rezeki dia dan bertuah dikelilingi kawan-kawan yang baik dan thoughtful. Wahhh kemain. Tapi dalam alam realiti, dia manusia berperangai pelik dan tidak boleh difahami. K...

Inferno Panic

Last night, Joel, Anne and i was chatting in the house when we smell something burning. We looked everywhere for the source of the smell until i saw smoke coming out of the main switchboard. First it was only smoke, then little flame. Before long, the fire got bigger! Smoke fill the house and it smell of burning plastic and rubber. We panic and run out of the house. Knocked on neighbour's door to ask if they have fire extinguisher while Anne and I trying to think who to call for help. We wanted to call bomba but didn't know the number! In that moment of panic, we forgot that it's 999. So we call friends asking for bomba's number. Anne called her friend and the first thing her friend said "Anne! Save your laptop and your thesis!" Only post-grad students understand this. Thesis and our research is more valuable than your IC or money or thousand dollar phone because only we know how difficult, how important our thesis is. Its a lifetime effort and hard...

Amazing Swimming Pools

I am a Pisces and "pisces" in Latin means fish. Pisces love to swim. So that explains my strong affinity for water. Just like a fish, i find water to be calming and soothing. Recently i've began to swim regularly after so long. Not only it is a good exercise, it releases stress and is extremely calming. I've read somewhere that water is a good medium to buffer and absorb all your negative energy and emotions. Two in one eh? I've developed obsession over swimming pools recently. Why i always seems to have obsession lately is beyond me. The nicest pool i've been to so far was this pool with an amazing view of Petronas Twin Tower. Perfect for a night swim as it was quiet and the pool is heated. Macam infinity pool tapi tidak juga. Infinity pools are the nicest! Jom cuci mata sambil berangan ada pool macam ni... Ooh that's super nice. Perfect for a night swim. This is a pool in Bali. So calming. Next trip perhaps? ...
