"life is what happens
...while u're busy making other plans." - john lennon.
i actually have this inherent tendency to rewrite. i do not blog into the blogger window. i write it in notepad, reword, rephrase, rewrite, cut&paste. the funny thing is, i used to be able to write pretty good essays in a single shot, back in schooldays. is it simply growing up that makes our thoughts more convoluted? that we've to take a few tries to say exactly what we wanna say? i wanna be that schoolboy writer again. and i think this begs the conclusion that... copywriting is the bane of the spontaneous blogger. or sooomething like that.
so while i was busy planning how to blog, this was what happened:
2 weekends ago, i was in club med bintan - hardcore playing, nothing else. (and before that, the evil prelude of a microsite going live - hardcore work, nothing else.) i've been feeling obliged to keep the travelog going, but time does not permit. last 2 times i did were that shanghai/jiangnan and taman negara thingy, day by day account too. i remember writing something about turtles too... which reminds me: sipadan, turtle haven! tentatively, mid-august, insyaallah.
anyway due to my crippled time management, the time for these just slipped by. just the weekend past, we had our post-trip party on the 8th floor, with guest appearances by shah alam char siew, chivas and absolut. ended up in some horrendous tandem-karaoke with the rest, waving machinegun and watergun and pool cue around. then i wilted on the couch, cup of water on my chest, trying to juggle hydration and consciousness. went back to 7th floor, did some emailing and k-o'ed. just for a while though. happy times. much better than the previous.
that was the friday/saturday night. for the saturday/sunday night, we had this bbq planned at shyng's place, which heaven itself forbade. (i was late becoz of a detour to visit daiyee, who had this operation at her uhh, feminine regions. seeing that i wasn't told very much anyway, suffice to say she is doing very well now, thanks for asking.) so. after 4 hours of consistent drizzle we took the hint and moved to yenc's, who had a porch. got the fire started by 9.30 or so...
which was when this funny affair got funnier. i think we finished cooking the first chicken wing somewhere around midnight. in between which we had the meatballs and sausages and cockles and latseileicilipadisauce! with one among us munching nonstop on salad leaves. hands cleaned, photos resumed, cake-time! yenc's belated birthday cake. happy times. i'm feeling more and more like i belong.
and life is moving along pretty quickly too.
