when you're having fun

I haven't posted in a while. Yes, I know. But believe me, it's not that I don't want to. It's just that I'm having such a nice long break that I figure it'll spoil my mood to sit down and type. Well, sorry, I tend to associate typing with work so you get what I'm sayin'.

Like they say, time flies when you're having fun. How true! At the end of each hectic but fun day, I plop down into bed and I'm out like a light. I wake the next day and it seems to whip me off on another frenzy, and the cycle repeats itself. So that's my excuse for being away.

good aches

I worked out for two hours on Monday and I'm still aching today. Guess I overdid it because I'm so conditioned that I normally don't ache at all. These couple days, I'm like ooh, when I lift my arms, move my arms, when I go down the stairs. Apart from that, I feel great. My arms have gained more definition and I'm pretty stoked about that, haha.

caught up by the wind

The date 09.09.09 apparently has some people so completely mesmerized they chose to make it their wedding day. Cute. But there's a certain hoo-ha in the papers that indicates these folks are overlooking the fact that this date falls in the Lunar seventh month which is apparently a taboo month for weddings.

I don't know but maybe the date is catchy and it comes around only once a century so I would give them that. Or maybe the attraction and price of cancun honeymoons is so irresistible that couples are willing to throw caution to the wind. Either way, I tend to think that if you don't let the negative vibes of a superstitious taboo get to you, then you'll be okay.

ahsohs at the gate

I hate it when I'm late picking up my kids from school. I normally go early to get a spot on the side of the road where I can wait and not block anyone from passing. Since I was late today, two cars were already triple parked outside the school gate. The road is narrow and I drive an MPV, so with 2 cars on the left side and one car on the right, there's not enough space for me to pass.

But the selfish ah soh (okay, tell me which ah soh isn't selfish and brainless?) refused to budge even as I edged closer to her car to indicate I wanted to pass so I could go further up the road to wait. No point jamming up the road waiting for the school bell to ring, right? At least that's how I think.

But no, she stubbornly refused to budge. The minutes went by and soon there was a traffic jam building up behind me! Yes, that's right, not every one is there to pick up their kids, there are people who just need to get through, like the man in the car right behind me.

He got impatient when he saw I wasn't moving. Well, that's because I CAN'T because that b*tch won't move... despite him, and me honking at her! But this man is such an ah soh, he thinks I'm blocking the road. Hello, if I were blocking the road, would I also be honking at the b*tch?

Finally after I kept honking at the b*tch, she started inching along ever so reluctantly!! And the man behind lost his patience and jumped out of his car to shout at me!! Hahaha, what a joke! What's the matter, dude, left your peabrains at home?!! If you can't see what's happening in front, then just shaddup!

Gawd, I think someone should do something about these ah soh's at school gates! They think they freakin' own the road. Well, ladies, why don't you just go home and cut your hair Rihanna-style and dye it red?? Oh, before anyone jumps on me (again!), let me just say this - our local ah soh's are not limited to women who stay home and don't work - there are many ah soh's in offices too and many of them are men!!!
