Anything and Whatever.

Today, I visited my nanny. She made me smile lots when she excitedly put on the clothes I bought for her in HK. They fit her very well. =) I must visit her more often.

I still feel very tired after the trip. Not that I expected to feel very rejuvenated but now that I'm experiencing extreme fatigue and yet not able to rest well, it really sucks. Backache's back. Dark eyerings getting worse. And I hate the mosquitoes. Must be the weather; all the mosquitoes are out to attack. Talking about mosquitoes, the dengue rate is up and there are those cheesy ads with that line "If they breed, you bleed" or something to that effect. Hah! I hope I won't get dengue. Getting a lot of welts and they bite me on the feet and fingers where it's super itchy and gets worse when I scratch. Argggh.

It's almost June 2007. I didn't get to watch a Midsummer Night's Dream in the end. Tomorrow's the last run and I guess there aren't any tickets left. Just as well.

Just now, on the train, I was thinking of some embarrassing stuff:

1) Nodding head front, left, right and finally landing on someone's shoulder and sleeping soundly. Someone shrinks away from head and then says "excuse me?" and nodder wakes up looking like he woke up on mars.
2) Nodding head front, left, right and almost lands on someone's shoulder but never lands. Someone cautiously eyes the nodding head and takes the opportunity to change seats where possible.
3) Nodding head front, left, right and when nearly landing on someone's shoulder, that someone siammed and nodder loudly knocks head against the seat and wake up.
4) Nodding head front, left, right and having another nodding head beside you. After a little dance of the two heads, they knock and wake up.
5) Drooling when nodding. Pool of saliva on his bag. Next string of saliva is in mid-air and when nodder wakes up, he quickly slurps it back into his mouth.
6) Talking excitedly and saliva drips from mouth in a string which drooler retracts excitedly.

So, why do people nod so much?

Tonight we went to our boss's house to play with her husky (Buddy) and watch tv. =) I actually managed to hug him and take a picture. Continue writing another time. TIRED!

Haha. okay, so I can still blog despite this strange display and the error message that popped up when I clicked save. Anyway, this entire week I have been thinking of taking half a day off to just laze a bit but time passes so quickly that it's already Friday. And tomorrow, we're going to go to our boss's new house to have dinner and play with her dog (those who aren't afraid 'cos her dog is taller than me).

So I have been procrastinating. I haven't developed the photos I'm supposed to develop (those of DT being proposed to, haha!). That's about the only thing but I feel oh so guilty. =O But I'm glad that at least I started running for a week already. Yes, I've gone for four runs so far and it's been pretty good. Haven't got any tummy pains or had any dogs chasing me (cross my fingers!) but I think I've been running pretty slowly, if the pedometer's telling me the right thing. Never mind, I'll just used to running first then improve on the speed later. Hehe.

Mother's Day is this Sunday. What are you doing for Mother's day?

Let's see if this works. Blogger isn't displaying normally.

Saying goodbye

So my notebook may be going to the U.S. next week. WW asked to borrow it and I'm asking him to help me sell it after he comes back. It's been 7 years since I bought it and I know I'll miss it. It's almost like a person and it's been there for me when no one else was - to feel my tears, my anxiety, my anger, my laughter, my fears...

To you: So I'm finally letting you go. You, the faithful one who has accompanied me through the many ups and downs of my university years and for years after. Maybe you know me best, my dear notebook.

I haven't been feeling that okay these few weeks. Most of it is work, the rest are memories. It's been rather bad but I know I've been through worse.

Just that I never expected to sink into such a state. Like what C said, it's back with a vengeance.

Move on, you'd say. And I'll say that I can't, not that I haven't tried. So I'm going to be stupidly brave and try the other option. And we'll see. But I'm just wondering, where have you been?

Maybe

So it's already May. I

1) am keeping my fingers crossed that things would be better at work and not worse
2) am thinking of getting a haircut soon
3) want to start running this week (finally!)
4) want to get rid of the marks on my chin but I'm wondering how to
5) am thinking of going to my nanny's house soon and go for a facial with my jie
6) want to ask my piano teacher to teach me how to play one song
7) feel like going to a Midsummer Night's dream at Fort Canning but no one has confirmed anything
8) feel like going to Off Centre but haven't asked anyone
9) don't feel like eating instant noodles for sometime because I ate three bowls last week
10) am happy for DT who's getting married next March and am a bit nervous to be her bridesmaid, ha!
11) miss the folks in Vancouver
12) find the new 9 p.m. chinese show on tv hilarious
