Daisies and their open hearts

This could likely turn out as verbal diarrhoea of the events in these two days.

Sat was great fun, we went for a huo guo buffet and jap dessert at marina square (our very own green tea party!). A hot cuppa green tea makes everything alrighty(:

And then! We watched Daisy. Jeon Ji Hyun ranks up there with Reese and Nicole Kidman as my fave actresses. She's just effortlessly and unpretentiously pretty. I like that. The movie was described by Life! as a 'melodrama'. Me? I just cried buckets. Must be the pms kicking in. The buddy said it was an art fare wannabe. Haha. (Andy Lau directed.) Nice OST though. Reminded me of Il Mare, but Il Mare is wayyy better. EVERYTIME I watch a Jeon Ji Hyun movie, I cry buckets. I remember watching Windstuck with the ruggers and my brain had warning signs that kept screaming 'Cheesy!' but still, nothing stops my active tear ducts. Haha:)

I will/must buy:
1. Il Mare vcd, since I've lost it for three years?
2. 100 piano classics cd.
3. PANTS.

I just bought a pair of converse sneakers! Tralala. Have been wanting one for ages, really need a good pair cos standing behind a counter for TEN freaking hours means I can barely walk myself home after work. Excruciating.

Oh yes! Goldfishey aka Weishan smsed me:) I was delighted, happy, ladida:) I think she's still as immature and loveable as before and I can't wait to see her again. Bridge party on sat? I am SO not a cards person. Beyond me.

The cover story of Sunday Times left me emotional (yes, blame pms). I was touched and inspired and also, somehow weirdly, afraid. Anything can happen to you, to the ones you love, in a second, life as you know it, could end. (Very Joan Didion, haha) And I guess the age gap between me and her made it even more immediate. It scares me and also dares me, to make sure that I live every moment and to say that is easy enough, like a cliche. It means, for me, that I can appreciate the graceful fluidity of water, be amazed at this world, even when I'm at work pouring drinks and liquid. I think I sound silly, but it's so hard to put it down in words.

We don't need sunsets or sunrises or people or outings to make us truly live. I guess, it's just about being and loving.

Yay, will be having dinner with ruggers soon. Really miss ahmin and everyone everyone:)

And good luck to those having interviews upon interviews the coming weeks. Go kick some ass.

Yux chewed at 5:53 p.m.
