One Fine Day, I will be better...

Wednesday, December 03, 2008

Last Saturday, we had our firm Family Day @ the Movies at Viva la Vivo. So I brought Melor and we watched Madagascar 2. Then Huda came along and brought with her a Pri 1 boy. Hurhur kita dah macam single parents, you know! Young mums with kids in tow. That would make me pregnant at 17. Hmm.

Anyway, on the way back, I walked past Poh Kim the video store and enquired about One Fine Day and what do you know! They have it! I was so sad cos every video store I entered said they're out of stock you know. And best thing was, it was only $15!

But then right, now that I have One Fine Day, I coldn't watch it cos why? I'm busy with work. The nature of this work is best left undescribed, save for the fact that it makes me cry. So now it's like, nasib macam kentang kan, dah ada One Fine Day, but cannot watch it. I had intended to watch that before I fly off to Korea next week.

But oh, blessings come in many devices. On Monday, I discovered that the nature of work I was referring to wouldn't continue and I am free! FREE!! But alas, I am down with fever of 38.3* and flu too. I feel woozy and tired and kept drifting in and out of sleep. And still dreaming of work. I dreamt that I was surrounded by mountains and mountains of papers and that I would have to do discovery for the rest of my life. Gasp! The horror the horror lah pantat! Not funny lor, the dream.

But even if the body is incapitated, the eyes are not, so apa lagi, I've been watching One Fine Day back to back hurhur... Life is partly blissful, amidst the mucused-tissues and bouts of coughs and hallucinations.

We're flying next Wednesday and I have not prepared or bought anything! No winter coat, no proper shoes, no proper pants (cos I'm always in skirts), no proper warm tops. I am so dead. I can imagine its gonna be a mad scramble to get all those stuffs just days before my trip. I have to be careful with money, though. Must not be an impulse shopper. Must remember recession. Must remember kids at home. Sigh.

Although I must say, I think I'm better with money now than I was a few years ago. But the taxi thing must really stop. I should cut down on taxis. Taxis are evil. They make you pay so much!

Ok, until next time. I try to squeeze in an entry before I leave. And with Ratna brining the lappie along on the trip (she says she's got work to do there. How is that even possible!), maybe we can blog while we're in the land of kimchi and Gong Yoo. Hurhur, land of Gong Yoo.

Ok toodles. Until the next one.
