OH SNAP!!!!! You came back!
The most insane thing just happened! Wait for it, wait for it...I got back my old blog account. omgwhadafakbbq. After numerous attempts to contact blog.com to obtain a new password, I finally gave up hope and built a new "home" in Blogger. I said my farewells and bid a teary goodbye to Nawooz. It was tough, but there was no other option.
Out of a sudden, I get it all back! First I was elated, now I'm plagued with the question. "Which one to keep as my primary blog?". Sure I can update both, but I prefer having one as my main. On one hand, I have informed my friends about my new blog. However, nawooz.blog.com will always hold a special place in my heart. It was where everything began. Nostalgic...
So here I am sitting and pondering, which shall I choose. It's gonna be a toughie. Think I'll update nawooz now for fun.
P.S. I wanted to blog about horny longans today, but I guess they will just have to wait. HORNY LONGANSSSSSSS

The Long or Short, Curly or Straight question
I think I maybe reviving an old topic from my old blog. However, I decided to blog about it here as the question has never been answered and it has never stopped either. Women.Like.Their.Hair.
To top it all off, they seem to have this fixation on long hair. Long hair, a beauty does not maketh you. Maybe it's the mags or movies, portraying sexy women with long hair...subconsciously programming our minds to believe that long, is better.
Frankly speaking, I like girls with spunky short hair. One that has a certain bounce to it when walking. To me, it's so smexy and I lurrveee the feel of running my fingers through hair!!! One of my fetishes I suppose. Pity my wife doesn't share my enthusiasm on the subject.
Of course there are certain exceptions to this. Some girls look better with long hair due to the shape of their face. However, a good hair stylist can fix this by adding a little zing to the short do, by shaping it. Like a rounded cut for a sharp face (ending with a sharp chin).
Another thing I've noticed. If you have long hair, but lack volume...go with some curls. It really makes a lot of difference and brightens up your look. Long, thin and limp hair makes you look dull and sickly. Unless, you happen to be in a Pantene commercial. ^__^ Which brings me to the question, what is your favourite shampoo and why? My wife seems to be hooked on Clear for it's delicious scent. I notice some girls love to flick their hair and smell it for kicks. (o.0)

Loneliness Syndrome
No, I'm still married if that's what you're asking. However, working night shifts pretty much leaves my mind with, a LOT of time to wander.
So I read a couple of blogs, forums yada yada and finally ran out of stuff to read. I even read random stuff in Wikipedia to kill time. I'm bored of reading gory and sordid tales from the online Crime Library. What else was there to do? Google your name of course!
I typed in Nawooz and hit the Search button. Nice to see my two blog sites listed at the top. Then came the flood of comments I've posted in the blogs I lurk in. Out of nowhere, I suddenly stumbled on the one blog I forgot to bookmark. Emmanuel. Dude, I'm so sorry for leaving your blog out of my Bookmarks man. Rest assured this has been rectified and I'm glad to have new reading material. I'll strip it down from top to bottom tomorrow night.
My wanderings have led me back to a long lost friend. A very productive night I would say.

Credit Control
My wife and I were having a meal yesterday and had a lil chat about our finances. We're both controlling our spending in wake of the wedding dinner coming up soon. It's gonna be a major drain on our piggy banks and we figured it's better to get a head start.
Guess what? We both have totally different approaches to managing our expenditure. I usually try to carry as little cash around as possible. If I need to make a "big" purchase, it involves a trip to the ATM machine or using the dreaded credit card. My wifey commented, that my bank charges for ATM withdrawals after a certain limit. Well...that is another "motivating" factor for me to spend less actually. Why give your hard-earned cash to a financial institution, who is making millions already right?
Her approach, reminds me of my secondary days. She prefers to withdraw the estimated sum of cash, which should see her through the month in one transaction. However, she doesn't carry that much around of course. For me, the temptation of having it still lying around somewhere can be a bad thing. Which explains why I stopped her version of financial planning when I started working. Also, money in the bank still "works" for you by generating some form of interest. Money in your wallet does not "grow" and has this tendency to disappear unfortunately (X_X)
You will be surprised how well, a close to empty wallet, has on spending. I've walked into a shop a couple of times and picked an item wanting to purchase it. Suddenly, it dawned on me that I don't have enough in my wallet and placed it back on the shelf etc. Talk about potong stim right, but hey it works!
I would say my main financial woe (and many other Malaysians) are transportation costs. Petrol and toll fees are a killer. I'm seriously considering a diesel pickup truck like a Tata Telcoline Euro II now. Cheap Indian parts and diesel powered. I still can't escape the death grip of tolls though. It wouldn't be so bad if the roads are actually well maintained with the profits they are racking in, but I guess a pocket has developed a hole somewhere.
Sigh...for once I wish I could strike the lottery and have some breather. Anyone of you dreamt of 4D lately? Care to share?
