the days past...

American Idol stuff:
It is down to rocker dude Bo Bice and all-American,country gal Carrie Underwood. I have not been keenly following this season but one contestant that stuck out for me all season long was Carrie. I just think she has the Look which is more important than actual talent if you think about it. Bo Bice I am not so sure. Some say he is a hunk but he just does not do it for me. May have a little to do with my heterosexual tendencies...

Time magazine:
All that loss of life over a purported Koran/Quran burning.Just seems irresponsible if true.Time magazine says they are unable to substantiate the report due to unreliable sources. Not something you want to hear from an institution especially on a subject matter like this. Was a powder keg waiting for its fuse to be lit...

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith:
Watched it with Agnes on Thursday. Gonna review it soon too. Liked it. But I guess I went in with lots of expectations which no movie can ever live up to...really...
And the way George Lucas filmed them (episodes 4 to 6, then 1 to 3) leaves many non-afficiandos wondering how a movie could end on such a down note. Lent Hasli my DVD's for episodes 4 onwards. Hopefully that will shed some light for Faezah.

Rain:
I do not like rain. Been raining last few days. Rain means I have to stay indoors. Only time I think I really like rain is when I am all cuddled up under blankets with my sweetie-pie. Hope the rain today stops by afternoon. Maybe can go down with Agnes to the beach or somrthing. Alden is gonna be there.

mysterious white stuff:
still there. have turned off the pump figuring in my finite wisdom that thr pump may be contributing to the problem. It has helped in a way.If helping is that the white stuff just remains in one place and not swirling around the water's surface.

northbound:
Me and my dearie gonna drive up north tomorrow. Malaysia not Sembawang. Gonna spend a day there. Probably gonna gp to Desaru. Maybe Kota Tinggi. Possibly Malacca.Not sure of the details. We have not really sat down to discuss what we are gonna do. The plan so far: Drive into Malaysia.Spend a whole day there. Come back late at night. The rest is irrelevant!

The Piano:
Auntie Aggy having problems with her piano tuners again. They screwed up the tuning the last time and came back yesterday to do it again. Problem is this time they took away the cover for her piano keys. Grr.... bastards.... idiots... mother-fuckers!! bad after sales service so far...

3rd Month Anniversary:
Yayyyy!! Agnes and me are all of 3 months!! Yayyyyyy!! And what did we do to commemorate this joyous occasion? Guess? Wanna guess? We...*drumroll*...watched Star Wars and ate dinner at a hawker centre at Bedok!! *fireworks and confetti* Not quite a run-of-the-mill celebration but definitely a break from the norm. Our usual scenario would be a pricey dinner and a romantic walk. But not this time. Wonder what against-the-grain sort of celebration we can put together next month. When we look back and say it is only been 3 months together, it may seem short but it certainly does not feel that way to me at all. Feel like I have known her all my life. Which is not as bad as it sounds. Just does not feel like 3 months at all..
Made a jigsaw for Agnes and framed it up and all. She loves it. So proud of myself although I gave it to her a day too late.



All together now..."Awwwww..."
Agnes loves huskies and that was the only one I could find that had one.One out of three ain't bad odds.

Animalistic love:
was thinking for some reason about all my favourite animals. And I noticed a trend. Most of the animals I love have STRIPES (tigers..)or are SPOTTED(leopards/giraffes..). I love snakes for much the same reason as they invariablyhave some sort of markings on their bodies. I just do not have the same attraction towards animals in mono colours (horses,primates...)
Just thought something I should share here.
