Wednesday, June 30, 2004

The day started pretty usual; quite below average actually since I woke up late, had a clumsy commute to work and finally realised I had forgotten my contact lens and glasses! Wahahaha, how did Her Royal Myopicness managed to pass her day?! So anyway, I knew things won't be too bad today since 1)I saw my favourite stray cat (Cats bring good luck. Ask the Egyptians and Japanese) and 2)it was nodding its cute head at me...hence 3) it will be a good day. I am SO the mathematician. Well, today is technically my last day of work *sniff* but when I bade my boss farewell, she got a medium-sized shock since she thought I had another week with her. My contract ends on the 30th of June but on my behalf, she insisted for an extension so whooohooo! That's more money in my "GOING TO JAPAN BUT SO FREAKING BROKE" trust. Seriously, if there is anybody out there who has won a little too much from the EuroCup bettings, donate some money HERE.

Next, I know I go off topic from time to time but I can't help it when my attention span is so short! My eyes dart around when I am stuck in a same topic for more than 10-15 minutes. Terrible huh? Actually, I do remember a time when I fell asleep on my friend. She's a very sweet girl; petite and cute but she was sooooo boring. WAHAHAHAHAHA! Arg, I have to admit it was very very rude of me but I didn't even know I fell asleep until well yeah DUH, I woke up. It was late after a bbq and we shared a cab back home and my sweet friend was just talking and talking and talking and I was mostly nodding in agreement (and then later to sleep lor). Before I knew it, she said "Bye!" and shut the taxi's door. THAT was when I jolted awake and realised I fell asleep on her. I wonder if she noticed me sleeping? Does she hate me??? Oh yeah, talking about going off-topic...hehe...I met the ultimatum today:

RJ: Initially they didn't like the idea but they are fine now.
Fiona: That's good. I mean, you are young what and young people should travel the world and learn as many things as possible. Go.
RJ: Thank you, I like that.
Fiona: Parents need to learn how to let go. Like me, I couldn't get used to it but now, I have to learn to let go now that my children are grown up.
RJ: You have sensible children, they will do fine.
Fiona: Yes, and when you don't feel comfortable with anybody, never go out with them alone. Especially at night. You never know.
RJ: Err...ok.
Fiona: Some people you know...have those...
RJ: Bad vibes?
Fiona: Yes! bad vibes. You have to be careful of them. I have alot of discipline because I have faith. I have God in me and He guides me. More people should listen to their hearts but no, they listen to their heads.
RJ: Oh I see.
*Fiona goes on talking about the eternal spirit, heaven and hell, salvation, and how Sin came into the world*
Fiona: I admire how some men in my church could surrender to God.
RJ: Oh wow...er...what do you mean?
Fiona: Some of them raise their hands and embrace God with all of themselves. They sing loud, dance and open their arms very wide. You know men, they are very prideful creatures so not many people can surrender to God.

I am really not trying to offend any Christians reading this and pardon me if I did. I am also not parodying my conversation since it is all TRUE. Anyway, it isn't the Christian material I am trying to highlight; I am just AMUSED how Fiona could make things lead to another. When I was finally allowed to go back to my office, I was more blown away by how she could talk about her children one minute, then very suddenly bring in her faith. I did enjoy the part where she talked about faith and discipline but whoa~ I was standing there for almost 20 minutes listening to someone who just told me Buddha isn't real...*sniff* After that conversation, I worry going out of my office for anything...just in case she pulls me into another session of her beliefs. (Seriously, I mean no disrespect!)

Finally, I was re-reading some of my earlier entries and I realised that I was bitch-slapped by Life again. In an earlier entry, I told myself I wouldn't ever work in town. And look where am I now. D-F-S. Right smack in the middle of town. So, one MUST NEVER NEVER NEVER HATE ANYTHING OR SAY ANYTHING VEHEMENTLY. SERIOUS. Be neutral and zen about everything.

Hence, like previously mentioned I REALLY HATE SANADA. I can't stand it when guys grow long hair or are unshaven. What the??? It's even worse when they are good looking because they are so arrogant. I love this type best. He's my number one honey:
