Yesterday my day out with my ol' pals... uneventful i guess. We did the same things we always do when we're together. It was good to see them. We ended the day at starbucks. All of us sat on the huge sofa and just talked... well ifah did most of the talking. She was complaining bout her job. I understand where she's coming from but sometimes i can't help thinking if everything is blown out of proportion. Like we all do when we feel frustrated and angry at something or someone.

Hmm.. working life... i would be there if i didn't continue my studies. But i couldn't imagine myself working right now. I understand what ifah meant bout working life, its basically all routine. Hell i've been there myself when i was on attachment. It was not like wat i'd imagined it to be at all. Getting scold by your employer for nothing is not a great feeling. Working life starts off when you wake up in the wee hours in the morning, be in the office by 0830hrs (doesnt matter if you live on the other side of the country) and working hrs end at 1730 hours oh but it doesnt mean you get out on the dot... by the time you reach home its already time to sleep and its the same damn thing all over again the next day. Bottomline is i would rather have a job i enjoy doing rather then something that would drain me.

Went to watch "love Actually" with my sis just now. Really excellent movie. I recommend it to everyone, even those who don't have a heart =P I guess its true. We can say that love actually is all around but sometimes i wonder. I wonder if i'm within that circle. Get it? around and circle? haha.. i know kind of lame. anyway yah. tats how i feel sometimes. Love. ai. pyaar. cinta. amour. Will it ever be present in my life? Not at the rate my life is going now... =)

anyway when we got back my entire block was having a black out. yah the entire block. Must be some idiot who tripped the power. I think he should receive idiot of the year award 2003. Luckily the lift was working. I donno how but i guess it was powered by the back up generator. If not i would have to climb up the stairs till the 11th storey. Power was gone for an hour plus. Luckily i had some candles in my possession. I realised how dependent we are with electricity. Nothing works when there is no power (unless its battery operated of course). Sometimes its good to keep in touch with our roots (living with no electricity i mean) cause our ancestors didnt have electricity back then but hey they survived. =)

.The Writer.

I love standing in the rain, letting the feel of raindrops caress feverish skin, letting it wash away my thoughts, worries and pain. I love the feel of sand between my toes, the cool wind whispering in my ear, the soothing sound of the sea, the warmth of a hug. I love anything vintage, historical, mysterious and magical. I like to laugh, I like freedom and happiness, I like the idea of romance, being swept off my feet and happy endings. I currently have no idea where i'm going but i know i'll get where i'm suppose to be in due time. I want things i cant have, I dream of things that can never be but i'm too afraid to leave the things i'm familiar with even when i know i'm adaptable to change. I can be the person you love or hate, like or loath, admire or envy. I am not perfect,
I am just me.
