leaving on a jetplane

... to make airplanes. :S

Four more days until I start counting the days of when he'll be back again. It's been a rough week or so because we've been fighting about a lot of things. Fortunately, we like to compromise. Maybe this will be the month I may actually agree to work overtime during the weekend because I have nothing else to do anyway. A couple of plans from friends but so far, no definite ones. Sigh.

And because of the hype and how good the preview is, we finally lined up to see Batman. I must say it was the best one I've seen. I have a feeling that no one else would dare play the Joker since Heath (we're close. errr) did such an amazing job with it. The disturbing images still resonate within me and I really am afraid of him. :S

But to give credit where credit is due, everyone was just great. Even the guy from Prison Break who had a brief cameo in the beginning was very convincing. :D

I wish I could just work 8 hour shifts all the time. I feel I have more energy and less anxious during the day because I know it will end in a blink of an eye. The only problem is that I'll have to work 5x a week. Eek.

the checklist

Dishes washed - check.
Laundry folded and organized - check.
Floors swept - check.
Living room back in to its acceptable state - check.

Two more days and my parents are back. I have already seen a preview of their San Francisco trip courtesy of album sharing by their tech savvy family friend tour guide. I'm sure my parents and aunt will be very happy that finally they'll be able to see their pictures right away instead of waiting for days/weeks til they are given a printed version of them.

I'm quite jealous of their trip. If only work wasn't on the way by scheduling me and also the convincing monetary constraints I have adopted to make life easier for me in the future I could have been there too. Sigh.

After a semi-excited and semi-apprehensive call, I found out (maybe two nights ago) that my boyfriend will be going to Japan for some sort of training. Once again I am jealous. My friend consoled me by saying "imagine all the Hello Kitty and cute things you can get!" Don't get me wrong, I like the kitty, but pink has never been my colour. Errr. I am more jealous of him visiting Japan (although for work purposes) before me. The scenery, the culture and sushi! And of course, the pictures!! The next best thing is for me to let him borrow my point-and-shoot (as I don't trust him with my fancy camera) and take lots of pictures for me.

The rest will have to follow for another entry.... I enlisted my brother's friend to watch my brother's car while I take a shower. Who leaves their car door open and expect me to wait for him to come back? Ack.

summer lovin

Rain, shine, breeze and summer.

Since my parents are not home, we've been forced to cook for ourselves. My sister made the effort of slaving away with the help of Hamburger Helper one day much to my delight since it meant packed lunch the next day. My brother on the other hand, out of desperation, cooked rice but fell asleep before he can even eat some. :S As for me, I've fried enough eggs, sausages and hotdogs to make breakfast junkies love me. Unfortunately, no one eats breakfast. Haha.

This situation just makes me strive to make sure that my future husband knows how to cook. :D

The end. Errr.
