- officially a quarter-century year old

In times like these, a warm hug and an assurance of "everything will be alright again" would be nice.

Alex "evil boy" Wan, LadyLuthien, DT and I went for Grease the Musical at the Planery Hall last night.

Will leave it to Alex to sum up the whole ordeal experience.

Alex Wan's (and probably ours) review at:

Few hours after the release of this 'piece':

Me: 9.90 boy.
DT: So cheap. No one wants to hunt me down also la.
Me: Hahaha!
DT: No heart girl.
Me: Huh?? What did I do?
DT: Your heart got stolen mar...so became no heart girl la.
Me: Bwahahahaha!
DT: .............
Me: Who stole my heart?
DT: 9.90 boy la.

One of the many very 'intelligent' conversations we had, DT and I. Exhilirating.

Office phone went ... ringgggg...

Me: Hello, Angie speaking.
Irritating caller: Hello Ms Angie Low, would you like to buy Domino's vouchers?
Me: No, thank you.
Irritating caller: Why not? If you...

(interrupted as my mobile rang. told Irritating Caller to hold on while i answered my mobile call, only to find the other person on the other line is not talking)

Me: Sorry, so yes I am not interested.
Irritating caller: Why not? Buy laaa....

(Now this is where I began to get suspicious. Since when Domino's ppl sound so UNPROFFESIONAL lehhhh)

Irritating caller: Hello? Ms Angie? Buy la, very cheap only.
Me: (Burst out laughing) It's YOU!
Irritating caller: Who me???
Me: YOU la!!! (while bwahahaha-ing all the way)
Irritating caller: Who is Me la???
Me: Mr Tay.

But cute. I like

Gemini (May 21 - June 21):

If you didn't start the day well, you will probably end it well. Your present love stars will surely put a smile on your face and a song in your heart.

I don't normally read horoscopes but today's 'prediction' caught my eye. The first bit of 'didn't start the day well' was true in a way, as you can read from the earlier blog entry.

The second sentence... hmmm.... really????

You know how sometimes when you wake up, you'd know exactly what kind of day it will be for you?

Just like today, I woke up feeling so hateful towards myself and the world. I asked myself this and that. Why like this, and why must it be like that. Why can't I have a life like this person? Why must I be stuck in this situation like I'm currently in, why can't I do the things that I enjoy just because I lack some monetary support and just where has all my fighting spirits go? When did they ever start disappearing?

So many questions. So many dissatisfactions. So many days blindly went by, not fully utilized.

Gah.

Then as I was driving to work, I told myself this.

"Well look here missy. You choose your own feelings. You're the boss. Yes, life might not be as great as you want it to be at the moment, but there are people in some other parts of the world who don't even have enough food to feed themselves, let alone, pamper and indulge themselves in luxurious goods. No car like the one I am driving. No MNG, no Zara, no Happy Meals at McD's (had to mention this, coz this happens to be Perfectly Flawed's cheer-me-up item), no Nokia, no MPH, no Rum & Raisin of Haagen Dazs, no SM Sri Aman PJ to go to (my highschool), and no so many other things.

And then, I felt better. Well... just slightly. UNTIL I turned my thoughts the other way round.

"But... but.. but, so and so has this and that. So and so need not work hard and has achieved so much. So and so had so many great opportunities and look where he/she is now. So and so is only 26 and has accomplished so much in life. Why compare yourself to people in Africa when you can compare to the person sitting right next to you now??!"

So then at that moment, everything went back to square one.

Boy and Girl watching tv.

Boy sucking on heart-shaped lollipop. (Don't ask me why!)

Girl paying full attention to movie when Boy turns to her and asks, "What shape is this?" (pointing towards lollipop)

Girl replies flatly, "Love". Eyes dart back towards the idiot box.

Guess what Boy says next?

***

Boy: I give you this shape.

Girl turns upside down from laughing so much till her sides hurt.
