Happy Thoughts..

Realised that my blog entries were mostly sad/disturbed/whiny/frustrated, or neutral. so this shall be my first happy entry ^^

Last week, work was quite pleasant, due to the absence of a particular mister eight-legged creature, (who's unfortunately back in my life at present..) this week, the creature has added 8 more legs as his able deputy has gone on hols. as i would like to believe (and have been trying to convince myself to), life goes on whether you are happy or sad, so let's just look on the bright side, and hang on...

on friday, went for a haircut at randy's. he cut off most of my hair as i sat there complaining about my life, and receiving consolation from all the staff there in return. so now hair is quite short, till tie-able but the pony has loss much bulk from its tail, as the hair has been severely thinned and layered. the colour has also been changed to an orangey shade of brown, which is just the hue that i like. thanks randy, you know me so well.

as usual, the weekend passed too quickly for my liking. and all too soon, the fun was over and monday came. this time though, depression set in at about 10pm last night, when it finally dawned on me that monday was looming and the week was not going to be easy ahead. as fr john paul said last sunday, sometimes we are 'surviving' each week, and not really living it. i don't just want to survive. i want to be happy to be alive. there's a marked difference in that. anyways, so i was depressed. and then i woke up twice at night because it was too warm, (it was so so hot, like 40 deg celcius i think yesterday) and i had 2 nightmares, one where hao-e was upset with me over a pair of spectacles and the other because of work. btw, for those who don't already know, yours truly suffer from nightmares about work. i think i worry too much about it. such a waste of time and energy, this worrying. i'm trying desperately to take things a little easier and lighter, in the hope that i won't be so stressed about it and maybe i can grow to like certain aspects of it.

ah well.. the nightmares go on, so does my life, the earth doesn't stop spinning, so i shall stop dwelling on the things. gotten through monday, so there's 4 more days left to the next weekend. things can only get better right?

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Accident on Front St

Hao-e and i just witnessed a horrible freak accident on Front St. Tonight is the first Harbour Night of 2007, and we happened to be in town for dinner. After dinner, we walked along Front St looking at the stalls set up along the side walk. There were stalls selling jewellery, ice-cream, hand-crafts, pepper jam/sauce, soap etc. And there was quite a good crowd as well cos there were 2 cruise ships docked at the Hamilton harbour. When the gombey dancers started their performance, we stood on the side walk of Burnaby St watching, gaping and taking photos. All of a sudden this horse carriage with 2 horses just sped along crushing the crowds underneath. The horses trampled over and the carriage rolled over some ppl!!! Eeks, we were shocked beyond words, thinking it could have been us. The parameds came and took 4 on stretchers. It was horrible. Hope noone is seriously hurt.

The Tudors

I just realised how good looking Jonathon Rhys Meyers is? Gosh, i just love his chiseled face and beautiful eyes. Anyway, so i chanced upon this new series loosely based on THE Henry VIII, second king of the Tudor Dynasty. You guys should watch it if you are as besotted with him and as fascinated with anything royal as i am. hehe.... So i went to find out a bit more about the rather infamous king on wiki and here's some trivia about his eventful life ( i bet, with so many women around him?!) Technically, Henry was only married twice. Four of his marriages were annulled which means they never took place. His court jester was named Will Somers . The only surviving piece of clothing worn by Henry VIII is a cap of maintenance , awarded to the Mayor of Waterford , along with a bearing sword, in 1536 . It currently resides in the Waterford Museum of Treasures . Henry VIII was the first member of the English Royal Family to wear silk stockings.
