About Me

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
I am secretly (and ashamedly) moved by sentimental literature. Classical music moves me and stirring orchestral music sends a chill down my spine and has the effect of making me stand up and pretend I'm a conductor. I am terribly choosy with my food but ironically I like to check out restaurants (albeit 'safe' ones). I like inane activities like window shopping, observing people and animals, taking long bus rides to nowhere and surfing the net. I have patience for others but none for myself. I am a good listener but I will never want counselling as my profession. My aim in life is to make God the centre of everything I do.

Bad two days!

What's wrong with me?

Yesterday, I forgot something very important.
When I realized it after dinner,
I was feeling so bad and lousy.
Had to go on a walk to calm myself down.

After all these years of walking, I reckon there are 3 kinds of walks:

1) The solitary walk: where you choose your route, walk at your own pace, stop to smell the flowers (metaphorically, of course) or to observe one thing or another and enjoy the solitude. this is a peaceful kind of walk.

2) Walk with a couple of good friends: good time to catch up, find out what's happening in one another's lives, being each other's eyes and noticing things along the way the other person might not have noticed. this is a refreshing and happy kind of walk.

3) Walk with a big group of people: this usually happens when you're on an excursion or going somewhere fun. this can be tiring because you feel the need to address so many people. but it can be a fun and invigorating walk as well.

Then today, at lunch, I caused an accident :(

I was attempting to melt a piece of cheese for my fishburger, so what I did was place that slice of cheese on a piece of bun, and put it through the toaster.

Sadly to recount, that treacherous piece of cheese chose (ha, a sneaky attempt to remove my agency) to pop off the bun and fall into the dark recesses of the toaster, and go up in flames!

It took the following people to put the situation under control:

1) One to switch the toaster off
2) A second to unplug it
3) A third to blow frantically into it to extinguish the flame
4) A fourth to douse the burning cheese with water
5) A fifth to affix an 'Out of order' sign onto the toaster

I'm glad we're stopping at 5. If there was a 6, it would be to run for the fire extinguisher, and a 7 would be to call the fire brigade!

Enough of mishaps!

The day must get better. Yes, I'm pretty sure it would!
