Un-fruitful Holidays

Again, I'm so sorry that I forgot to take my camera out of the house. Hence, no pictures today. Originally planned to take some pictures of us practising for SWS this sunday, but I was in such a rush that I forgot.

Anyways, one important thing is that I can run fast in slippers (although it hurts my soles). I almost missed a bus 139, I ran with all my might and if I really could capture a picture of myself (which is virtually possible, if you think about it), which was practically impossible, you could see the passion in my, uhh, bouncy thighs.

Missed a sto0pid bus 153, and I was sweating intermittently (which is, again, virtually impossible if you think about it) and the sweat drops kept disturbing my sto0pid earphones. (Nb: the incessant use of "sto0pid" seems to suggest that I'm pissed off or something, but no, I'm not.) When I finally got on my bus 153, I started to people watch again, like I always do when I'm bored.

I started to think about things. Really important and serious thoughts flooded.

Then I realised, why my holidays aren't fruitful.

But before I start today's story (well not really story, since they are random thoughts), let me warn all audiences that this story represents only random thoughts, and I stress again random thoughts. The following information you are about to receive does not represent my state of mind at present or in future, and does not in anyway express my wants as of the moment.

Now that that's done, let's continue.

I saw this couple walking across the streets. Now you'd probably say that I'm just ranting on about having a girlfriend, and how it would be so fulfilling during the holidays, and how you could always spend time with her, and have a great time shopping (eww) with her, and have a whale of a time cycling or visiting theme parks and buying cotton candy, and sharing those stuff with her, and sittting on a park bench and talking about stuff, sharing about life's precious little moments...

Well, you're right.

So that is basically why I feel that my holidays aren't fruitful. Because I have no girlfriend! Actually I'd prefer to think of her as a "life-partner" rather than a girlfriend. Unless, if you mean girlfriend = someone you are spending the rest of your life with. (another cheesy movie line)

So anyway, I was thinking rather deeply about it, and made some comparisons; with or without girlfriend. With these rantings going about in my head, I finally came up with a very contrasting statement/comparison.

Without girlfriend, holidays will be like...

Waking up at 12.00pm (which happeneded today) and then turning on the computer, playing GTA San Andreas and NFS etc etc. Occasionally going out with male friends, hanging out and eating etc.

With girlfriend, holidays will be like...

Waking up at 0800 hours, maybe even 0600 hours for a 2 hour phone call (both phones are free incoming, but I call her), Spending 1 hour in the bathroom doing personal grooming, spending time on the bus on the phone once again (this time she'll call instead of myself, no choice lah, have to save money), instead of stoning on the bus. Then whole day out at Orchard Road with shopping targets = 0, just window shopping would be enough to satisfy (her, not me). But both of us will leave Orchard satisfied. Myself? Satisfied with her company. Her? Satisfied with her new gifts. Of course, when I leave Orchard Road, I lose something important. Cloth at the bottom of my pockets. (PS if you don't get the joke, please tag.) Then when she gets home, (I'll probably sit her bus with her) I will call her again to make sure she's safe and sound etc (even though I saw her up to her home).

There you go, the starkingly stark contrasts in the two different situations. Oh I forgot to add that I will probably reach home at about 10pm for the second case?

Anyways, I don't even think you guys bother to read through the whole post so let me cut this short.

In the end, I was thinking on the bus; if I held a "Win A Date with Mark Leong!" with bolded exclamation marks to add emphasis on the excitement it would bring, would it work?

Aiyo Mark, can you please don't be so BHB. =D

Who cares, the road's been planned, all I have to do is just stick to it. =)
