how i wish i have a magic wand which with one wave genuine dollar notes will fall from the skies.

dont you all wish that my blog was the above sentence minus the first 3 words? hee. i bet plenty of people will suddenly be my best friends.
well, what do they always say. be careful what you wish for!

certain turn of events lately have got me thinking and left me counting my blessings.

i think it's sad that others misfortunes make you sympathise but secretly glad it didnt happen to you. it's sad, but oh so very realistic.

i think it takes a great person to wish it didnt happen to them but was left to you to shoulder the burden instead.
but you know, when you really do wish it upon yourselves instead of others, it is then you truly know how much that person means to you.

a malfunctioning air conditioner in the midst of this sweltering heat is not a (cool) joke at all.
and to KAH motor the civic went this morning.

they still cant determine the cause of the breakdown, so the dragon and i are handicapped for a few days.
but the perks are the willing chauffers! hee
Now awaiting my parents to come fetch us from office for a yummylicious crab ( not crap!) dinner.

i had a really nice sunday evening out. too bad for those who got car sick. * sniggers *
but food was delicious, wine was nice, and the company was fantastic!
let's do it again!

plus i had presents! 2 pairs of boxers and a free pair of crocs!!!!!!!!!!!!! wheeeee. i cant wait to go pick out a pair.

yesterday was a weird day. now i cant really elaborate why it was weird, just that it is. i heard weird answers and gave weird responses.
ok let's not call the day weird.

let's just say, it's different.

and in some ways it was good, in some ways it was bad.
havent you had that kind of day before?

cats was splendid! im so glad i went to watch. the dancers were so graceful and supple i felt positively fat sitting there and watching them.
if it wasnt for the synopsis that was in the programme i bought ( Programme programme!), i probably would not have understood the plot though. heh.

but oh the singing! the dancing! the costumes! the backdrop! it was just simply amazing.

and yes g, the cats' interactions with the audience was very exciting for me. hehe.
during the show, i didnt realise one of the cats was behind me until she patted my head and then hissed and meowed at me. haha i nearly jumped out of my skin.

i wish phantom would show in singapore again.

it's the end of the week. it's been fruitful and set paths of promising leads for next week, but i'm glad the week has come to an end all the same.

i am t.i.r.e.d.

in fact, i'm going to take off earlier today, run the banking errands, have dinner and go home! the flubug is bugging me. hehe.

im a bit outdated and slow, but i finally watched lord of the rings! i cant wait to get home too so i can watch the final dvd disc. come to think of it, elves and dragons have a certain way of mesmerizing me these days.

legolas legolas! it's the legolas crush all over again.

over and out. ko time.

the sun got tired of playing hide and seek and came out into the open.
yippee!
mr wind helped by blowing some of the rain clouds away too.

so life has picked up a great deal from the past week, and overall, everything looks good.

they always say, live life like you have no regrets. i kinda think that is not possible, but not too impossible either.
of course there are many things i wished i totally left out altogether.
and then there are some which i look back and realise i should have done it differently.
they say the lessons and experiences are valuable, but i havent decided if it was worth it.

but then u begin to think, all's been said and done, what on earth does its price matter?

you just take the lessons, and carry on living.
throw your mistakes over your shoulder!

and once you begin to understand that, i think life just takes on a new meaning altogether.

along the way, you may meet people. and i dont mean those you meet for just a little while, but those who came and imprinted something in your life. and life was good because of it, yet it brought about a whole lot of bad.
and many consequences meted out, misunderstandings incurred, bitterness tasted etc; that the essence of the initial meeting and its subsequent feelings gets lost and forgotton.

expectations are deadly, and usually brought about my promises. but to expect that a promise is kept, cynically speaking, is deadly. and if a promise is kept, woo! you're the lucky one.

i remember promises and honeyed words ive given and received in return. usually, it ends up with many finger pointing matches.
someone once also told someone, they dont believe in words or a promised future, and we should never promise it too lightly too.
but lost in a state of delirious romance coupled with daredevil attitudes, you're ready to take on the world.
only to realise that sometimes it's really you against the world.

you forge a pact with someone. but that's all it is. forgery.

sometimes death takes a person from you when you least expect it. most of the time, you dont get to say goodbye. live everyday like it's your last. that's not realistic either. as ive always said, it's about the balance, and the art of finding that perfect balance.
sometimes death comes a knocking. and you get to slam your door shut. sometimes the door is unlocked. sometimes it steals in through the open window.

there isnt a way to deal with death except to grieve. and that's it. that's the true meaning of loving someone. the one who gets left behind grieves.

and the sentence just typed out doesnt only apply to deaths but to all.

except dont forget that sometimes, the person who died, or the person who left, didnt choose it too.

i look around me and sometimes i feel sorry for people, and sometimes i envy them. and i shake off these feelings, beause pity and jealousy consumes you. if you're not strong enough, pitying someone turns you into an arrogant person, and jealousy just fills you with discontent.

i think we, as humans, should just take one step ahead, one after another, and their companions and friends and family matching you stride by stride, arm in arm.
now, that, is life.

*stoops to gather her weapons and tools*

im like a cockroach, you can spray me with insecticide and squish me over n over but i still refuse to die.

but you, are like an ant. and no, before you congratulate yourself, i am not referring to hardworking qualities, of which you have none. what i meant is one stomp, and your antsy angsty world comes to an end.
lucky for you, i've never been an ant bully, and i'm not about to start for less-than-nothing ant like you.

and there i was thinking my problems are over.

thank god it's friday tmr. ive never said it more fervently.

im crossing my fingers. looks like the storm is blowing over! more money and less problems please.
highlight of the day: im getting a fish and co lunch treat from a grateful customer. i hvnt been working long, but this is the first time a customer is buying me a meal to thank me!
aint i lucky?

so this is slightly late, but i want to thank all those i called that night! over issuing of cheques, it always happens. and when our funds are delayed, that's when the panic attacks begins again!

especially dele! sorry i kept you up and put you through so much trouble. really appreciate it!

anyway, for those who are interested. i managed to get the funds after all, because by the time yl and i ding donged, it was after midnight, and after midnight means new day, and new day means withdrawal limit is taken away!

yippee doo dah.

i cant decide if april started off well or not. sales have been forthcoming, so that's great, cause that means more commission and more commission means more money!

but these days have seen so many problem cases that need to be addressed immediately. and i mean right here right now!



needless to say, im quite exhausted. and that's not counting the fact that problem cases gives me panic attacks. i think my heart needs to be stronger!



:)



on a lighter note, i want to watch cats and im gonna go buy my tickets and watch cats!

and in preparation, im going to memorise all the lyrics of memory.

meow meow.
