nunchuk

i keep making mini comebacks on this page without enough patience to explain what 'a lot has happened recently' really means, but as much as i believe in the importance of writing for posterity, i also want to know that im not just living with my autobiography in mind. i am, simply, living for the moments that count.

february was quite an interesting month. i always look forward to the lunar new year and this year was no different. the usual relative stuff, with the not-so-traditional visit to junyi's and dinner at a veggie restaurant, complete with dessert at haagen dazs. it was all good fun. and that nice little quiet outing at vivo last week proves that im not always searching for a crowd to drown in. sometimes i just wanna lean back on a couch, sip my tea, inhale the warm vapour and seriously, just chill with those who matter.

to slow down and to rewind, as paolo would sing.

"no sleeping at night, but i'm going from bar to bar. why can't we just rewind?"

i need to start working with words again. i dont care if it's reading or writing or speaking, but everything's coming out in a mess right now. i think im losing focus. no, practice wouldn't be the right word, since it aint some motion that you can memorize, but rather, it's about making conscious split second choices that can set apart the eloquent and the vocabular-damned. i am in search of linguistic salvation.

tonite was some excellent time spent watching the superbly scripted (and directed and acted...and everything twas just great) black comedy and light tragedies. i just cant help but marvel at how witty a play can get- it never fails to impress and entertain all at once. speaking of plays i'll have you know that christine aka xtine me love has made it to the grand finals of theatre idols! everybody go support numb now! haha so happy for her.

stayed over at different places for two friday nights in a row- not always accomplishing things that im proud of but last night was particularly fun. mike's party, and the ever inviting Wii! i cannot get enough of it. if not for all this typing my hands would be itching to play some more virtual tennis again. haha. the little players bobbing on the court. cuteness.

word of the week: nunchuk

i am THIS close to getting my gold at last. i didnt think that it would matter much to me, but for once it's actually attainable, and im hoping all my hard work won't go down the drain. haha, without the army context, i'd say i sound like silas marner. anyway, things are getting better in office, i really hope it stays this way. i can safely say that on wednesday we enjoyed some good measure of success, based on the general response (and thank god for the kind weather)- i really dont know what i'd do if it were otherwise. and im saying this not for myself, but for the rest of the committee who have worked so hard all this time- good job guys. for now, it's back to the mundane business i guess. unless, of course, victor decides to pop in :]

anyway i think i've lost sight of who im supposedly waiting for. i will just do my own thing and not let this affect me anymore. it's just too much trouble and not worth the time. im gonna dedicate more time to self-development and growth. gonna learn them skills and work those juices. why have i been waiting all this time?

the music world is really heating up, which is really good! if i had to summarize it with what excites me the most, it'd go something like this: pop chanteuse ashlee simpson invades the local airwaves, at long last, with her smash timbaland-produced hit outta my head, just as she turns into little miss obsessive on the internet with her second single of the same name. michelle branch looks set to return solo this summer with a brand new album, about time after her brief stint in the country genre with jessica harp. meanwhile, sara bareilles and flo rida climb the charts with love songs and low jeans, while ex-sugababe mutya buena cruises in with her take on the all time chapman classic, fast car. gotta love music. i almost forgot how amazing the grammys were this year. hats off to alicia keys and amy winehouse. and i cant wait for maroon 5 later this month. looks like im going after all :]

ouch look at the time. im gonna go now, esp after blogger threatened to abandon this entire post. dust? anybody? no?
