My World This Week !!!


Its exactly a month before i take a vacation and in that time frame there are lot of changes happening like for instance .....

1. i am growing a beard, i dont know if i am giving osama any competition. i am just kinda forming a layer of hair actually but then add to that my skin color and my "err asian" looks i get my fair share of cops and wary eyes watching me when i go to the airport or visit the train station.

2. i am on a shopping spree and i see myself scouting the newspapers and bargain outlets for deals all the time. which explains why i tend to leave office at 6 in the evening each workday and return by 10.00 empty handed or otherwise.

3. To complement my beard, i have a mop of hair. i keep twisting and turning them around to cover the uggh not so covered areas. basically anything to keep myself from appearing bald, but then if wishes were horses, beggars would fly ...

4. i am rediscovering my old wardrobe, somehow a beard and formals never go hand in hand, they look best with faded jeans and a tee as i just realised. way to go pal .....

5. Tabasco sauce tastes better with everything. Its only when after a few hours or mins that you feel the heat do you realise what burning sensation is all about.

6. Cleaning out the garage is akin to cleaning out the refridgerator. Both have equal amounts of junk in it, except that garage sales over ebay can make you richer unlike the fridge

7. i can be a jerk well not that i was any better but i am the only ass at the LLS society who has refused "Blue Ice" a date twice. I am not desperate for a relation and i dont want an arm candy ...

8. New York is great, but SFO is better, my teeth dont chatter and my nose does not hurt. It gets a bit too sunny at times but I can still wear shorts and show off my skinny legs if not anything else

9. Teddy bears are not for kids, if a teddy keeps staring at you as you wake up each day, you will soon fall in love with it as i just realised.

10. Buy the same number of gifts unless you want to see a mini world war at home. Dont' believe me wait till you have 2 nieces who are "bold and beautiful" and follow Chinese martial arts to the core !!!

Ahh The Times !!!

Ohhhh the feeling is back, its finally the time when ....

1. People all around me shower me with advice and judgments from reel/real life and all i am
supposed to do is pick up the tab

2. When to retain my sanity and to not let my parents down i bob my head up and down to show
i understand every word of it, when in reality i am just being polite. Being polite is quickly understood as being either retarded or in dire need of help and advice and the story continues ....

3. I look at my old apartment and memories flood in and i realise being nice i was just ripped off 500$ by way of deposit money. Money that would have reduced the numerous loans i keep paying

4. I walk around hoping to watch the scenary, and i find i am increasingly lead back to my growing up years in one of the sprawling cities thats already bursting at its seams ...

5. That its been 17 days and 5 hrs when i have been sleeping when everyone's awake and working when everyone's asleep ..

6. I am juggling my gift list, bills and my laundary list faster than "Hussain Bolt" did his 100/200 meters since the "free time" time period just got shorter by 1/4th of its original time frame.

7. I know what a merry go around is, since i seem to be back to square one when it comes to taking a very important decision in my life.

8. That i am being considered "amoral" since i went out with a friend i knew from college days and secondly since I do not want to begin a relationship with her because
- i am past my prime for these hilly dilly romances ...
- she is already reeling under the after effects of a "relation"
- I don't feel i am in love with her and trying to start something is akin to taking advantage of the "Being Vunerable" feeling that she is going through..

ohh btw vids had to give me a piece of her mind for my last stance and i am yet to understand where am i wrong ...

8. I just reached my expiry date today ... "Happy Birthday" to me ...
