in hiding

It's one of those days. Feeling really sick, i just want to curl up in bed and hide myself from the world.

I'm starting to feel a little depressed but i'm too old for that.

See you when i get better. I hope that's tomorrow. xx

Day 1 2010

My bestfriend baked her first cake yesterday and it was a yummy success. Check out her 'peace' cake, isn't it so cute? It's a great statement to begin the new year with and she did a fabulous job.

I'm assuming everyone is staying in today? To recover from yesterday's celebration and take complete advantage to chill out while it rains beautifully outside? I had a great time last night with the people i love and oh, what better way to usher in the new year if not with your favourites?

On another note, i'm not doing very well today. First day of the new year and i am down with the flu. I'm about to go have a nap again. Hope you guys are enjoying the holiday!

squeezed for time

Errands day today, will be running around. See you on the morrow. Just a question though, has everyone slowed down on blogging? Haven't seen much updates lately from you guys. Throw in something interesting so i'll be inspired to do the same, instead of lying around in bed with a throbbing headache. Better days ahead, i pray. <3

a little blue

(by Jen, who is my favourite)

I'm a little blue and a little in pain. It's that time of the month and a girl must brave through discomfort, cramps and raging hormones. Hygiene is so crucial and keeps you on your toes 24/7, 7 days of that unfortunate week, so i don't get the best sleep during this time.

Uninspired right now. I can only think of puffy white linen sheets and some Frank Sinatra. I intend to take it easy this week. Wishing yours to be better, friends..

the season to be jolly?

(from here)

More like the season to be sick. I'm down with the flu just as many of my friends and family. It's x'mas eve. And i am sick. And brooding. And feeling gloomy. :(

Tonight's xmas dinner is pizza and japanese at Yuki's. We're going to learn how to roll sushi and take on a few japanese recipes. Maybe even mess her apartment up or misuse the pool. I hope to get better by then or couple of hours prior. I gave my liver a good rest just for tonight! Tell my body, i deserve to get better..

Every year, the family ritual is dinner at home on x'mas. This year, my folks suggested that i be in charge of the kitchen. Ehem! Technically, we don't celebrate xmas but we just join in the fun and use the term 'holiday' instead. Which happens to also be a great excuse for family feasts. We're done shopping for groceries and i'm left to think about dessert.

So i'm busy, a little sick and feeling very festive. I'll see you when i see you.

p.s As of right now, i am at work AND i have frozen unagi in my bag. I know. I try not to think about it.

Merry x'mas and happy holidays!

staying in

I hope to sleep in these next few days and get better. This fever is unpredictable and I am miserable wondering if I'm recovering at all. On a separate note, I have all these fun projects in my head for the horror movie marathon this weekend. Let's see how that goes.

Kicking the addiction. Evidently it is not the easiest pursuit. Many times, inflicting harm on oneself is as seductive as it is stupid. Why is it so hard for me to love me?

a little under the weather

I'm not feeling too well again, sweethearts. Is it me? Could it be the weather?

Whichever, I just hope to wake up to a cup of hot barley and a generous bowl of Quaker oatmeal, which is my favourite. Note to self: not too generous a bowl please.

Hope you're well wherever you are, my dears. See you on the morrow.

everything will be okay

This piece of work popped before me and made my eyes jolt. Caught me off guard but made me smile for awhile. I pretend this to be a divine message. It told me something no one did these few days. That everything will be okay..

By Jessica Williams via Bees Knees.

I am back at the office. Surprise, surprise. But no, i am not back for work because i've had it but will be sitting in till Friday to help out temporarily. Yea, i am that good. No way.

Again, it's a very difficult time for me and i am not coping well. This time, it's a nightmare. In conjunction with Halloween perhaps? Maybe life's cruelly witty like that.

Yesterday was Shafiq's happy day at the screening. Of all the wonderful films we watched, his received overwhelming response. My guess is how it is controversial since it is almost taboo in our pretentiously conservative society to address such an issue not subtly enough to allow it to appear less confrontational and a little more accepting.

That's the point, we can't accept the realities we'd rather leave unknown. Which in fact, trails back to the film. Somehow.

Recovering.

the weak and pathetic

In an attempt to seek 'justice' one must at least engage in some small form of activity that suggest 'i am a detective'. Dust some finger prints, tail a person, you know stuff like that. But by assuming too much about a person and a person's life from a peep hole, it doesn't make you Batman.

Dear world, you want the truth but you can't handle the truth. It is safe behind these walls fighting a war of it's own. Your help is not needed. Besides, it will bore you to death. I can do this alone, just as i did all my life. Stay out.

can't function at this moment.

Going cold turkey. I'm busy cheering me on. See you when i get better. Have a clean and healthy Thursday!
