Serendipity

I wish I could blog with more humour and wit. Who would want to read a long-winded blog? Though most bloggers proclaim that they blog for their own pleasure, there’s no doubt that we do aim to please, too. =D

If you lead a boring life like mine, I doubt there’s anything blog-worthy. As I quote Kenny Sia [one humourous Malaysian guy], "if you blog everyday, people say you have no life. If you don’t blog everyday, people say you’re running out of ideas."

He is one self-deprecating guy who writes about satirical jokes [mostly about himself though], all in the name of humour. Appended are more quotes from his blog entry.

If you write about your daily life, people will say that your daily life is very boring.

If you don’t write about your daily life, people will say that you have no life.

If you post photos of yourself in your blog, people will say you are an attention-seeking bitch.

If you don’t post photos of yourself in your blog, people will say you’re an ugly-looking anonymous coward hiding behind the computer screen.

Does that make me a lifeless, attention-seeking bitch? =D His blog is one of those you shouldn’t miss if you’re looking for a daily dosage of quality-read and humour. Not that you can replace a nice book with a blog entry though.

I’ve had a friend tell me that she doesn’t visit my blog when she’s hungry, and I guess you know why that is so. [Note for the slow: That's because my blog contains lots of food images!]

Anyhow, I spent $122 yesterday on luxury items yesterday. I consider them luxury items when they are something extra which if you hide from me, I might not realise nor find out.

Cut to the chase, I spent my money on clothes, bags [yeah, plural], movies etc. I’m a bag person, so if you run out of ideas on what to give me during major festivals and birthdays, you’re always welcomed to buy me bags. I think I’m starting to develop a fetish for bags. It’s bad, when you have bags you don’t use for more than 5 times? Someone slap me sober!

Met up with Suaku [as you wish! :p] to watch Initial D, and man, Jay simply cannot act! To give him his due credit, he does pull it off with his cool personality. The character in that show is a very nonchalant guy who initially cares nothing about fame and winning [car racing].

Many people have said it, but I’m gonna spell it out again, that Jay couldn’t carry out that scene where he saw his girlfriend bidding farewell to a middle-aged guy in a Mercedes car. He cried, and in my opinion, he reminds me of a small boy whose toys were just snatched by an elder brother.

I enjoyed the show, because it was funny and there was the cute Edison [a young replica of Andy Lau]! So in the show, Takumi [starred by Jay] drives his father’s AE86 [cannot remember the make of the car] to deliver tofu. He gets faster and faster, and those tofu remain intact, till one day he had an accident, and their tofu got smashed.

The father placed a cup of water in his car, warning him of the trouble he would get into, if he spilled any drop of water. So it was a type of training for him. Car modification seems interesting!

Catch it if you can, though some people may claim that watching Chinese shows is a waste of money, since it gets aired on TV pretty soon after.

And to add, I was pretty annoyed by a stupid sentence in that show [guess?], which I recognise was in someone’s nick. -.-"

Anyway, I was supposed to watch Initial D on Thursday in the same week, but plans changed, and so I manage to catch it with Suaku instead. =P

Suaku was supposed to buy something for a friend as a birthday gift, but in the end we didn’t buy anything at all. -.-"

Later in the day, I met up with my Mum to watch Fantastic 4. It was another lame, but splendid and funny show. I wasn’t aware of how the quadriad were formed prior to the movie, despite watching their cartoons before.

It was the usual superheros against the baddies, but in the case of Fantastic 4, they are human beings who got to be "heros" unexpectedly, and very much unwantedly, especially by Ben, whose body were made up of solid rock!

He was the only one who couldn’t turn off his "special" skill, whereas all the others could, so naturally he didn’t want to be in his pathetic state and be ostracised.

One touching scene was how he regained his previous appearance through the help of a machine and Mr Baddie, but decide to step into it again to be in his rocky self in order to save a fellow Fantastic 4.

Friday I was out with the babes from CPF [Joleen, Yvonne and Julie] for a night of chilling out. Went for a rendezvous, oops, I mean, dinner at Rendezvous Hotel’s Sushi Don. My first time at Sushi Don, though I’ve eaten at Rendezvous Hotel before [the restaurant, mind you].

They were late for like 45 minutes?! The usual late queen [me] was quite on time this time round!

I was so bored I took this image when I was waiting for the babes’ arrival.

I ordered, erm, well forget it, I’m never good with Japanese names, even when it comes to food. Basically, this is fried chicken!

And a palate of Sushi and salad.

Wanted to visit Acid Bar for some drinks [except for Julie], but it was way too crowded, so we decided to be on our way instead.

Got home all tired and mentally drained that I hit the sacks right after my bath. Oh wait, did I forget to bathe?! I’m sure I did. =X

It’s such a waste when I didn’t sleep late on Friday and Saturday nights, since these were the only 2 days which I could sleep late! But anyhow, I’m glad I paid back my sleep debts, don’t want to be caught yawning at work due to lack of sleep!! Hehe.
