"A person is never as quiet or unrestrained as they seem. Or as good, as bad, as vulnerable, as strong, or as sweet. We are thickly layered, page by page, behind simple covers. And love - it is not the book itself, but the binding. It can either rip us apart or hold us together."
This week has been a whirlwind. With school work, work at work (sounds weird to type that). All of a sudden I realised that I had to submit the project proposal by Friday, and I had to do the blog post this week and the health screening for the hospital (i think there's about 2000+ staff here) to deal with.
But what was good (though not exactly at the best timing) was that I won tickets to the Gala Premiere of the thai horror flick 4BIA on Thursday. I think it's gonna be out for screening to the public next week. And obviously someone like me would be jakon as hell. I got to see the directors and 2 members of the cast. The movie isn't all that scary (but I was still a penakut haram and watched practically half the movie through the spaces between my fingers that covered my eyes) but worth the watch (cos it's free. DUH.) The guy with the mic in the first photo is hot hot heat. However it's such a pity he can't communicate in English. At all. There had to be a translator. Dang. But anyway, I only managed to capture these pathetic pics of him. The rest are in the boy's hp. Though it made me get reach home past midnight with a proposal to hand in by the next day, I'm happy that I won. I really needed that time-out. Maybe God knew I needed a quick escape, (regardless the situation for some leisure time or at least something unrelated to schoool family and work) and maybe that was His way.
And imagine having to get only 1+h of sleep after having had a long day, in an attempt to complete a project (til I was so sleepy, my head rolled and swayed round and round and I ended up typing random words with absolutely no link to the proposal such as banana and Durex in the proposal) only to realise the next day that I'd lost the thumbdrive. What a waste of time! And that's not all. I wasted cab fare going to Woodlands MRT and also going back to school after rushing back to work to have a frantic search on my thumbdrive. And to think that I had a boyfriend who knew of my situation but could not be bothered about it. How fucked up was that. But too bad la, it's all over. Forget it.
Now I gotta go and retype my proposal. Again.
PS, thanks to everyone who have asked about my dad or have been telling me to hang in there. Esp Firah and Liyanah, thanks for your calls. It's times like these when the people you least expect actually let you know you're in their thoughts. And I really appreciate that. <3>
