reminder on 27 dec 2006, 700am -
you're just another girl
Thursday, December 21, 2006
currently at work and busy doing Chinese to English translation, making many mistakes, ending days with talk about the future (or my lack of it), marriage, children, aging amidst many other subjects. work is draining but that's just routine and it's way better than being idle. the incessant rain is rendering me shoeless besides having an extremely negative influence on my sleep pattern and dreams, darkening them and making them seem more than surreal and making me more paranoid.
other than that, everything's going great. there's the comfort of knowing that des is opposite at Sunshine Plaza, playing tetris, researching and ready to rescue me if i ever need any rescuing. on the other hand, i've been taken for a fool again. but what's new about that. however, i'm relieved that things are cleared up and almost back to the way things were before.
this is where you can find me from 9am to 6pm, from monday to friday every week. for most lunch times as well. just ring the bell.
signing off,
the
sweet love
thing

what a (lovely/lonely) thing, in a blood red dress
right now, i'm slightly handicapped without my cellphone which i broke and now i'm broke too and in much debt. tmr, i'm going to check out the gym at work. if it doesnt work out, i'm going to spend lunchtime with the new book - 'The Wall Jumper'
other than that, i'm truly glad for the people who care and do not judge me like how i judge myself, help me sort out my thoughts when they deviate and slip, wait more than 2 hours with me for my turn to service my phone, hold my stuff while i digress and go shopping when i'm supposed to be picking up stuff and head home straight and watch me parade around in red dresses..
and there are those i would love to mock. for their cowardice and their lies.

this is one of those days when
i'm just lazing around the house, roasting marshmallows above a charcoal fire, having home-baked cake and it makes me feel fortunate/relieved/placid/recharged/(and fat).
surviving an entire week of low-salaried work despite feeling ill makes me feel accomplished. spending occasional nights out brings reprieve. meeting up with my girls ends the week perfectly as we endured bad service (as usual), shopped around, laugh at the idea of a 'Milkshake Party', walk leisurely on Orchard Road, stare wistfully at our beloved accompanied Vicki while Des and Mich tried to read their fortune with a glass of polluted water and i had my mushroom soup Alone. Then getting home at noon the next day, shopping with my mum in the evening and watching typically typical
HongKong dramas in the middle of the night makes everything seem so quiescent and soothing.
Best of all would be having pals expressing their concern occasionally. In a way,
i'm blessed. But at the same time,
i'm craving for a
holiday, company, spontaneity and charm.

yesterday night was enjoyable, except the part when my heel was stuck in the pavement of Orchard Road and i was slightly batty and paranoid during dinner while bemoaning our individual chasms. after that was good too. just got home, slightly after 1pm. in need of sleep but i'm too unsettled.

what a bad day. even listening to The Beatles isnt alleviating any of that shit
and work is.. well, dreary and wearisome. i really need a break, to go somewhere where i'm a nobody to everybody. or maybe a rendezvous. but well, due to constraints, i can only go on weekends and i cant leave the country. great.

i used to believe
in vino veritas. but well, in wine, there's lust too.

yesterday night or should i say this morning went completely out of control. other than steph and people, there were fifi, guowei and colin. well, getting home got me more awake than ever and soon, it's time for work. the montony's about to set in and it's going to stay for a while.
inebriated words that mean little.
