things but for which i would have jumped from my 3rd storey shophouse office window today.

i remembered to buy my mom the gawd awesome french-japanese strawberry shortcake near work and sneaked it to her between errands this morning. automatically, i've won today already. yeah, the shit is hitting the fan already at work, but my mom? she's happy. i SOO win. this would be disgustingly like yoga-stretching so i can pat myself on the back, but i've been telling her about it since the 2nd week i was working at The Balloon-Shape Place. so it's more like, for once i didn't suck at daughterhood. baby yoga only! also if my mom and i were competing at being sweet, today i win EVEN over her, because she LEFT ME PASSED OUT FROM EXHAUSTION ON THE KITCHEN FLOOR LAST NIGHT! GRRR.

i passed an ah pek lounging on the grey boxes where all the geegaws for traffic lights are kept. He was puffing his smoke calmly over the heads of the puzzled office folks waiting for the green light to cross. they pretended not to be staring. he smirked when i grinned at him. he looked like tua pe kong in janitor wear.

Fayfairy mommied me to death last night, cramming all the food in her bag down my throat because it was 10.40pm and i hadn't had time to eat dinner. Strawberries, some weird rabbit food biscuits. i hadn't seen her for weeks and then when i finally meet her it's only to follow me around for 20 mins while i was pelting off the walls desperately running work errands at ikea before they closed. Abu gave me mark-out tuna sandwiches from his workplace ten mins later. Abu had to lie. Timmatits wolfed down half my sandwich in one swallow but he sent me home when i started snoring at nasrins at 11.30! This even though i ruined the night for them because i crashed out so early. Cat-in-demand shores my defences up everyday with her sage poodle of experience advice and by gasping shrilly with outrage at every single thing i tell her about work. Always whine to a drama queen, folks. Otherwise, tak shiok.

how did i score such sweet friends? i will eat them too so they will be with me forever and ever and ever.

almost the best of all. my blood aunt came to visit today, and now i can blame all the fucked up things this week on her.


awesome.


ah fuck, lunch's over, back to workblerghdie!
