I've been experiencing a lull in my life. It's probably to do with impending NIE admission and no work at school. I hope. *crosses fingers* Kind of boring, and restful at the same time.
I'm dying for some activity or sport. Cycling, blading, canoeing, whatever, I'm dying to go out and expend some energy. Sitting at home all day somehow makes me very jittery and for some strange reason... crave mambo. Dance music. Dancing till my legs ache. I don't do it often but I do enjoy the er.... hair-letting-down-ness of it.
I'm not going to indulge this craving though, because of the unsavoury externalities. I mean, the only place you can go to get reasonably enjoyable entertainment on mambo nights are clubs. And what else do you get at clubs? Sneaky young/old men, smoking and gratuitous drinking. I don't like the smell of smoke, nor sneaky men (either young or old) and I don't drink that much or for the enjoyment of it. I do drink for the buzz it creates. On the plus side, it seems I've gotten over my alcohol adversion.
My point. So what is my point. Ask me out, please. I'm dying to go out and do something fun. Preferably something that doesn't cost a lot.

I dreamt of a man who had very smooth facial skin.
I don't think he liked me very much because I told him so.

I thought it ended. But it was not.
Only laid aside, forgotten.
Still I do not want it. It chains me.
But.
Perhaps it will linger till the day my heart stops.

I'm not sure if getting a flu jab right in the middle of the rainy season was the smartest idea. Especially since I also had a mild cough (dry, no phlegm, no funny blocked nose sensation).
Had being the operative word. It looks like it's developing into a full blown phlegmmy, nose-blocking and wet cough. Meh.

I hate Tweety, actually.
While on the way home from school today, I saw a poster advertising Saw 2. If you've seen the first movie, you'll know that its victims were forced to perform hideous self-multilation to either save their own lives or the lives of their loved ones. (Doesn't matter which. But you'll notice a lot of movies have this plot-line: Kill yourself or else we'll kill your loved ones.)
Then I started wondering. If someone wanted to threaten me, who would they kidnap? It sounds rather callous but I could not think of anyone that I would be willing to die for.
If I did sacrfice myself, I have a feeling it would be more due to the fact that I thought it to be something I had to do rather than really experiencing a need to protect someone.
But enough of sad stuff. Look what I did today!
I'm really pleased with how it turned out, even though I'm sure it could be better. Photoshop rocks! I spent HOURS on it - to think it was the simplest storyline I had in mind.
Yes, Tweety belongs to Warner. But I'm not like... going to use it for commercial purposes.

For better or for worse, remember!
As I was making breakfast/lunch this morning/afternoon, it suddenly occurred to me that I'd make a terrible wife. I can't cook, can't sew, can't clean. Apart from adoring my husband, there's not much else I can do around the house.
Which then gave rise to the following scenario running through my head...
On washing clothes: Him: "Arrgh! My shirts! What happened to them?!" Me: "I hear pink is a very popular colour among young executives these days..."
And then I thought it would be a great storyline to have for some manga series, if it hasn't already been done.

Mambo
I have learnt that mambo is merely a matter of making hand gestures that describe the words of the song - a bit like modified sign language. I now know the hand gestures to "babe", "fire", "moonlight", "sunlight"... "you"... "me"... "heart"... and really, that's all you need to know to do the actually-quite-amusing-to-watch mambo moves.
Or you could be creative and make up your own. If it's in time to the music, I think it'll pass.

I'm probably one of those few people who has to read the chinese comics with a dictionary.

I need to do something about the archives. The list is getting too long. I'm not sure what yet.

If people were beverages, I'd have to say I want a glass of red wine. Not because of how it tastes (I dislike alcohol in general) but for what it symbolises. It goes well with red meat, fine dining, reeks of romance and best of all, it doesn't give you a hangover the next morning!
So far I've tried a Tiger Beer and a Vodka Coke, neither of which really sat well with me. In the meanwhile though, I'll be glad to bide my time with tea and coffee. Milo too, perhaps, but not that often... it makes me feel bloated and nauseated.
