Stir Fried Thoughts

[random stuff happened lately... and random thoughts floating... will throw it all out and sleep on them... hui hui]

Friday. As I was stepping off the bus as usual, the bus driver purposefully accidentally pressed the wrong button and sandwiched me between one of the bus doors and the boarding rail. I think he was supposed to close the back door, but pressed the wrong button. The first time I have ever been shut between a door on public transport. Funny... and humiliating.

Been reading a book, Levin's God, mainly about a singer's life- sex, drugs and alcohol. However, there's a deeper layer to the story- including the issue of death and the handling of it; passion, desire, motivation, self-awareness, conformity... many different foods for thought. What interested me the most is the way Levin (the main character) grows, which alongside touches on issues of life and death, God and his existence, purpose, and expression. A rather slow moving book with amazing narration at points, and includes the most extremist events such as wrist slashing in search of meaning, sex with transsexuals, drug and alcohol intake like food and water respectively.

Recently been loving alone time, but still wished for company... this contradiction is driving me insane. It's funny- days when I plan to meet up with people, I wished I was at home alone; days when I am home alone, I wished someone was there. Might be because my brother's been going out a lot on weekdays, and I'm always by myself during those 5 days, so loneliness hits me mercilessly when the weekend comes (which is supposed to be more exciting, not lonely!). After the usual training on Saturday, it feels like I have seen enough. Sounds unhealthy. Sigh.

John-Hoon. Korean actor who can sing, but not nicely. He doesn't sing with enough passion, he doesn't make lyrics come to life, he doesn't voice the words like he means it. Can't complain at all about his appearance, but his average (or maybe below average) singing marks his definitive downfall. His appearance in Princess Hours as Yul is simply too gorgeous to ignore though... what can I say... staring at his MTV clip and ignoring much of the singing could be the best way to go?

Grandma's second knee operation went smoothly, and Mummy should be back in September as planned. Grandma might be coming back too! Mega excited! Aunt from Hong Kong called tonight as well- feels great to keep in touch with family. I couldn't work up the courage to ask her about traveling to Japan with me though... not yet anyway. Will try next time she rings, just hope that I'm home to answer! Miss my mummy.

Hui Hui ^^b
