Dear Chibi,
I’ve realised I haven’t blogged since September 13th, and while that doesn’t seem too long ago, I know I’ve left out a lot of blog entries I could have made over the past couple of weeks. Sometimes I really feel obligated to put down things that happened, but there’s just times when I don’t know how to put it in words. Sometimes I simply can’t be bothered to blog, other times I don’t have much time. The other day at work, I looked at the mini calendar sitting on my desk, and the quote of the day was ‘Keep a diary and one day it’ll keep you‘. *sigh* So very true.. okay, so I’ll attempt to write something..
hmm..I hear a random girl screaming outside my window…oh.. I just received a new email notification via MSN..from some viagra admin- great. *delete*
I’m listening to Raymond Lam’s album at the moment- Kaz bought it recently and was very very very happy to find it in the mail. Ah, what a fangirl she is, hehe..Lately I’ve been following the HK series ‘Moonlight Resonance‘- I was pleased with this drama actually, a lot better than other TVB series I’ve watched in a long time and much better than it’s prequel, which was supposedly also a hit. Moonlight Resonance also had a Moon Cake theme in it, perfect timing for it to be aired around Mid-Autumn festival.
Moonlight Resonance
Unfortunately unlike other years, I didn’t go out to join in the celebrations that were held around various locations. I think I didn’t have time. However, we would always have the yummy dinner and snacks night on Mid-Autumn Festival+ of course the moon cakes =) Jacky was also over and we played some mahjong- I can’t remember who won (*coughahahacough*), but we spent the next weekend playing more mahjong! I really like the game…there’s just so much excitement in it.. I think it’s the kind of excitement people get when gambling..err…knowing they have chances of winning. Even if you lose a round, you always have hope you can win the next! I wouldn’t play it with money though- it’s just not practical to throw your income away like that XD
This is my 10th week at my current job, and during lunch breaks I usually walk around to find a nice place to sit…thanks to annoying seagulls and pigeons, I can’t seem to find peace, lol. As I was strolling around mindlessly, I found myself inside the Museum of Contemporary Arts. There’s something about art galleries and museums…they give me the creeps =.=… I feel extremely empty. Well, literally the interior is empty, and I guess just standing in all this open space with creepy looking displays isn’t going to help. It reminded me of first yr at Uni- the first time I went into an art Gallery as part of an assessment. I had a similar feeling.. I guess it’s also because I was alone then, as I was just now during my lunch break.
Being alone is a scary feeling… I wasn’t able to stay in the exhibition for long, but when there’s nothing to do during breaks, you tend to end up finding yourself in the same places. It’s amazing how much you think/talk to yourself when you don’t have company. Everyday I’d see many many tourists, snapping pictures, looking at souvenirs (heck, I even went into Souvenir shops and probably looked like a tourist XD). I wondered how I would see Sydney, if I was a tourist…would I be very excited? What would I take pictures of/with? Would I find everything in CQ expensive? Well, I find things around here pretty expensive anyways…
There’s this Aboriginal performer who plays the digireedo everyday, and for the first 2 weeks I’d actually go watch him play. It’s really weird. I feel like a tourist sometimes.. It’s not like I’ve never seen an Aborigine, or heard their music- but I was engaged and fascinated. There’s also a lot of school kids around, some from primary and some high schoolers. What also catches my attention, are the amount of people jogging.. there’s so many people jogging around for ages- and I often wondered- don’t they have to work?? XD I was told, they’re probably rich people who won’t need to work, or retired, or work in different shifts. Still..there’s so many!!
The other day I came out from the office to watch the Olympics parade- I couldn’t really recognise any of the athletics, but still exciting with all the confetti and all, lol.
I like my office location actually..you can see some interesting things by just walking out of the building! A little while ago I saw a whole line of Fire Brigades on strike XD That was pretty cool, too…I made a recording of them, but I’m sure everyone knows what Fire brigades look like. Just imagine 20 of them! ehehee….
Okay, you may be wondering what’s with the second picture… I’m as lost as you are. I was walking around during break and saw a man standing inside a glass box. Um, yeh, and that’s it. XD Any ideas??
I find some fascinating, some cool, and some weird/random things around here… I was even approached by a creepy ‘fortune teller’ a few weeks ago.. it’s probably all nonsense- but I guess we’ll see =p He said October will be my super lucky month, haha.. err.. yeh.
Phew.. at least I got all that outta my head. If you’ve managed to read through all that, well done… I’m really not sure what I’ve written makes any sense, or if it’s even interesting to anyone, but it feels good ^_^ Oh, I’m gonna finish off by saying WALL-E is so cute ^.^ Go see it if you haven’t =)
