I feel like a toast..but surprisingly not coz I'm brown skinned or sun-burnt..but because I'm just stiff...frozen stiff..
The air con engineer support seem to have a underlying motive to chill us to death..guess it is the only entertainment they can get all day while they sit and gossip in their almost-like-a-freezer, grim-n-dim, never-visited-by-anyone room..ok on second thoughts I don't blame them...
..but nonetheless it does reduce my productivity..[surprise surprise yes I DO work!]..productivity in terms of being able to think without little specks of ice crystalising in front of my eyes..being able to type and actually feeling my fingers..enjoying a hot coffee..without a frosting!..you get the picture..
..So yes to make a long story short and cut everyone the ordeal of reading another one of my banters..my usual gibberish [and I go on and on..]..my office is cold..like cold that makes you brain dead cold..and I don't have a choice but to sit here..wearing clothings which make it look like the winter finally visited Singapore...and try and get something done..
...I just felt like cribbing..and this was the best way..
Brrrr...

So I'm not the only one who loosely uses the word "crib" and "cribbing".
I don't get it. Is it an Indian thing? ISC perhaps? A colloquial derivation from some other term? Found out that this word actually doesn't mean "complaining" very recently, when someone commented on its usage in my blog.
Hmmm...
shuchi,
eat lotza rum filled chocolates...makes u feel nice and warm! :P
iyer
Haha is it? I guess it probably means 'a child's cot' if u look it up right? Well not sure but i've been using it all my life...and 'cribbing' all my life too..lol
Iyer..thanks for that..it's def an option but i'll have million other reasons to 'crib' about once those chocolates go down my throat..*wink*

I think it doesnt matter how we use Crib or any other word of the english language...In 10 years time all the people using it will either be chinese or indian anyways(population explosion of these two races).
