Mood: green


Fine, I admit it...am really green today. Nope, not thinking "hentai thoughts" or anything green-minded in that sense..its just that....am really green with envy when I think of the other people who have managed to post their thoughts on to the blog, post their new pics to share with other people, and did what they wanted to do today.

I would have loved to -

- read the books I bought at the WTC's 27th Intl Book Fair last Sunday
- finish reading the books I bought at WTC's 26th Intl Book Fair (Yes, last year! And... I haven't finished them until now! *sobs*)
- borrow some cool anime series and watch them...something to soothe my ruffled feathers
- eat more penne arriabiata and have some pastries on hands for my snacks today
- eat crispy chicken skin and not feel guilty about it
- pet my cutie-cutie Japanese spitz dogs (who are in Cebu and not getting any younger or not having any inclination towards procreation)
- just emulate a stone at the Ortigas park to and watch the sun slowly move across the sky

Maybe am too shallow with my desires but isn't life supposedly so I can live it to the fullest. Maybe someday I will make a list of 100 things I would like to do before I die. Getting maudlin..must be the hunger pangs.

Still, the pasta last night which I had for dinner during an impromptu outing with officemates involved in other projects..was great....it makes me feel warm all over......sure the pressure is here..but with occasional good food, good company...well, life is worth those little things...
Harking back to the Rubaiyat - "a loaf of bread, a jug of wine...and thou.."
I have to fine the "thou" though (^_^)

Break from work is over..back to the grindstone.

  1. Why are you antsy of being shallow? Will being deep bring happiness? What is deep anyway?

  3. Buang. Mediocre? Middle of the road? Sitting on a fence? You are much better than that!

  4. Somehow you remind me of Prof Sonny or ...was it Prof Leny? Those fence sitters gangs they hate.

    Am just an observer nowadays...makes me feel so old and weary sometimes of things which always remain the same...but the next second, my emotions seesaw to some optimism that there is some hope yet and that I am too jaded and cynical sometimes. Feeling like this, maybe its connected to my diet :-)

  5. I think I know how you feel, going neither here nor there and just coasting along - when in reality, a whole cauldron-ful of things we want to achieve are brewing, brewing, brewing inside! =)
