Wouldn't That Be Nice?

It's Monday and here I am sitting in front of the computer again, facing an email inbox that never seems to quit, endless phone calls, a mountain of paperwork and....the list goes on. Sigh..the weekend came and went a little too fast...

The BF and I spent the day by ourselves yesterday. It was nice to spend some time alone without the company of other friends. I don't mean to sound selfish but its nice to have some time alone sometimes. We had a late lunch as the BF is not much of a morning person. Had the usual Yong Tou Foo in Ampang before heading to 1-Utama. There were a lot of people with a few activities happening all over.

The new Mitsubishi Lancer on display caught my eye and immediately walked over to have a look. Nice car but think I could get something better at that price. Been thinking of changing my car...and I am still thinking. Have never been one to spend a huge portion of the salary for car repayments. I rather spend the money elsewhere, say...a nice Prada bag...hehe.

We managed to get tickets to Rush Hour 3 although it wasn't my first choice of movie. I wanted to watch Ratatouille. But I am not about the walk away from the counter empty handed after being in the queue for 30 minutes. Not much difference from the other Rush Hour movies. Still the same slapstick humour and theatrical stunts. But it was entertaining.

A quick dinner afterwards...some grocery shopping...drive home...shower...and its time for bed. And voila...the weekend is over. Sigh.

If only we could extend the weekend to say...another day? Now...wouldn't that be nice? :-)

Searching & Waiting...

Just came back from a long weekend in Bangkok yesterday. And I have made a mental note of never going on a holiday or trip with a large group of people. It makes it extremely difficult to keep track of everybody and you end up wasting a lot of time searching and waiting.

I knew this problem would arise when we first planned this trip. Initially it was only suppose to be 4 of us which is a comfortable number. But it ended with 15 people going. Well we all decided to do our own thing during the day and probably meet up for dinner and drinks, which is fine with me. But when we got there, that became a theory. Every where we went, people wanted to come along. And that's when the nightmare started. Conversations turned to.."where is he?"..."wait for me ah"..."stop..I wanna see this"..."why walk so fast?..."but I dun want to see this stuff"...arrgghh. Lucky there were only guns on sale and not bullets as well.

It just drove me nuts but kept my cool for the BF's sake. Afterall, I didn't want to offend his friends.

There are more stories but that's for another day. Right now, I wanna catch a nap. Feeling kinda sick now. Must be the terribly hot weather in Bangkok.

Am I Tired?

Currently watching Eureka the TV drama series till wee hours in the morning. No wonder I am tired. It's a good series to watch but then I have always been a fan of sci-fi movies.

Time for a quick shower...and back to the show. Not too late though. The new manager is starting work..hehe.
