Feeling... confused Food: red bean paste bun in the morn Book: Chinese book called Niu zai ku qing ren [Lover in jeans.] hahaha... CD: Alex To's "I Believe" Happiness of the day: last night, my family sat around in the living room, eating mango while watching TV. After carving out most of the flesh, my dad passed me the mango seed, and said, "you like this right?" Sniff, so touched, yes I really do. Event of the week: Going back to malaysia this coming weekend - Take 2. bubble tea: I was pissed off only in the morning yesterday, really. Everything was fine after lunch. partly because of nice people saying nice words to me, and partly because I had this really nice bubble tea during lunch, yes I am so frivolous. haha....but frankly, unlike every other flavoured bubble teas I've tried, this one tastes great, not overbearingly sweet and therefore yucky after like 5 sips. Great find. Bought at Funan centre just opposite my office too, so I can have more of it soon! Hahaha...no, not today, I can't afford to pay $2.50 everyday for a drink. CD: I finally bought the new Alex To CD during yesterday's lunch break. I'm listening to it now, actually, the spare computer I'm using now has a CD rom drive. Apparently my old computer has one too, but it looked kinda dubious, not the kind that has a tray that pops out to receive the CD, but I had to stick the CD into this opening apparently lined with black foam or something. eew, no way I'm going to stick my precious CDs in. maybe just the ones i don't like. anyhow, that computer is gone forever. the tech guy [who by the way, has a very nice deep voice oohlala] told me that the hard drive got corrupted, that it will take some time to fix it, and that since I'll be here only for 3 more weeks, I should just continue using the spare computer, instead of waiting for the computer to come back. sniff. leo-ness: i was also going to buy a lion soft toy, because i have a new found fascination of how leo i actually am. see, i'm arrogant, i'm charming, charismatic, dynamic, and smart! yes, keyword here is arrogant. heh. oh, and a lion has that whole bunch of hair around his face right? yeah, like me! hair is looking worse because of the chlorine in the swimming pool. anyhow, i couldn't find a lion soft toy cute enough to promise to love it forever. [yes, i take this soft toy quest very seriously.] but, i do have a lion hole puncher, i bought it at the science center last saturday - it punches out the shape of a lion. Hahaha.....this tickles me. i think i'm ready to embark on my work for the day now. but let me punch lions in the paper first though. haha...that should take me till lunch time. whoopee! birthday present: the immigration woman yesterday reminded me my birthday is less than a month away. hmm. i still don't know what i want. while scanning pictures two days ago using my brother's scanner and laptop, i felt that i wanted a digital camera. i've not actually done too much research on this, because the price of a good digital camera is too scary. and i don't want to settle for some substandard one that just serves to frustrate me, knowing how un-tech-savvy i am. then last week, when my CD player was acting up, being temperamental and all, for once I didn't bring it out with me to work, and I realised how much weight it had contributed to my daily burden. so i thought about buying an MD player. this one, i've been thinking about it for a long time, previously because I had so many MP3s it seemed like a waste to just listen to them on my computer. but i soon gave up the idea because my CD player is still working and i've grown attached to it. despite it being so fat and heavy. right now, the idea that tempts me the most is a holiday. at a resort, on a cruise, something simple and brainless like that. not really my usual travelling style, but this craving for brainless relaxation is the result of sitting in a cold office all day long, killing brain cells by the minute. result of realising i have an uneven tan. result of feeling sick of tall buildings. hmm. or maybe i should treat myself [and my mom, maybe] to a one-day spa treatment or something. Ah. that's an idea. hmm. money: but i'm so broke! i mean, i'm not like dying from starvation, but i am after all saving up for my future, it seems mindless to splurge so much on a mere birthday, isn't it? Hmm. I think I'm indeed becoming a little too old for my age - did i actually say i'm saving up for my future?! argh. i think i should start saving up for my birthday. one month is a little too short, especially since i don't have an income now. i shall celebrate next year's birthday in conjunction with this year's. then i can truly splurge. muahaha... funny, isn't it? i was just writing on and on without first conceptualising what i wanted to say, and it leads me back to the money issue that i know i had been thinking for some time now. ever since the time when i thought about moving out alone. hmm. are leos supposed to be money-minded? haha, i know i'm irritating poachie dear, who's already sick of my leo-ness...going to punch lion holes now. ahem. | |
