A blog binge
Wheee….just had my second drum lesson today! I left the studio with a big smile on my face…it was so fun! One hour just doesn’t seem to be enough! Who wouldn’t love having the freedom to bang on stuff with a wooden stick? *grin* And on the way out, I bumped into J’s younger brother whom I’ve not seen in years and years. I used to have a teeny tiny crush on him when I was about 13? 14? *blush* Anyways, he didn’t quite believe me when I said I was learning drums…hmppph…what’s so unbelievable about that?
Dropped by at BSC to collect hubby’s slides from the photo shop, and bought a few pieces of cakes from Strudels. Did you know that they have a buy-4-get-1-free promo? The offer is just too good to resist…so I usually end up with more cakes that we can eat. This time, I bought two chocolate mango cakes (not nice…just tried it…the chocolate was hard like hmm…it was hard lar), a creme brulee specially for hubby, an orange chocolate one which I’ve tried before and liked, and a chocolate coffee one that I didn’t really want but since it was free…
Spent the whole day in front of the computer…playing with Photoshop and reading other people’s blog. And yes, I did my targeted two-old-post-transfers-per-day today (Feb 8 and 10). I also devoured entry after archived entry at Jay’s blog, www.isorule.blogspot.com (thanks to sunbabies for introducing)…I like his writing style very much, and it’s really humorous. Spent almost two hours non-stop reading all his archived entries! *eyes paining* And geekchic is back too…so spent another one hour or so reading the posts that I missed.
Hubby came back early yesterday, so we managed to watch The Myth at GSC @ Midvalley last night. As with all Jackie Chan shows, you get a little humour thrown in with his inventive kung-fu. Overall, the show wasn’t all too memorable. The storyline was rather choppy at parts and some parts felt as if it didn’t even belong in the story. And I don’t get the same feeling of awe at the cinematography as when I watched Hero and House of Flying Daggers (oh, how I love watching Zhang Zi Yi). But certain scenes did touch my heart…like watching the stern face of the general (Jackie Chan) trying to hide his love for the princess who has been sworn to the king but would rather die because she cannot be by the general’s side…swoon. Such a hopeless romantic, I am. I think deep down (in some of us), we want a love that is fraught with this type of drama…the I-love-you-but-I-can’t-have-you, so-I-have-to-give-you-sidelong-glances-for-the-rest-of-my-life-while-you-marry-a-tyrant type of love. It’s just so…so…sigh. I can’t think of the right words to describe it. Ah yes…so drama.
Anyways, the rest of the day has been rather dull. Really looking forward to tomorrow! Hubby will be coming back during lunch time to have lunch with me *happy happy joy joy*, after which, I will finally get to see M’s Bucky, attend a card making session, have a mani/pedi, and enjoy dinner at Ms. Read’s Delicious @ Bangsar Village. Hmm…I think I’ve mentioned that in yesterday’s post. Nevermindla…excited mar. Now…what should I wear?
