I'm not trying to make a statement that work is boring but being a promoter in Parkson Grand Mahkota Parade is just plain boring! It seems more like a standing competition to me. I mean, how many customers can you expect when there are places like DP and Carrefour? For the past week, I'd spent most of my time building castles in the air, making myself dumber as my brain had stopped functioning for quite awhile when there were very few people checking out the children dresses at my counter. Anyhow, I still enjoy watching how parents pamper their little darlings, trying every possible way to coax their princesses into trying out the dresses and there was this young, pretty lady who even asked me for sweets or chocolates. and at last, she had to play a true tone which went like "Meooow, meoooow..." on her phone just to get her precious daughter to wear the dress. How sweet! It always makes me happy to watch these frolicking children playing hide and seek, chasing after one another, walking hand in hand with their parents, pulling their dad's mustache or kissing their dad's @$$. Naive little rascals!
Sometimes, I wish I could turn back time or time travel back to my past when my brother and I used to catch tadpoles from the drains, build our territory under the old double-decker bed where we hid and imagined we were fighting wars, build our playground in the bedroom, take midnight walks on the rooftop to spy on people and look for our cousins next door, skip a rope till the break of dawn, steal the flags on the offerings during the hungry-ghost festivals and burn them in the old cinema which is now dad's office, go on bike expeditions when I got lost once but managed to find my way home, give names to every single pillow and bolster, I can name a few: Bearku, Dolly, Yellow Hair and many more but frankly speaking, I hated the wrestling, boxing, Dragon Ball, Street Fighter, KOF part when I always got bullied. My hands and legs would be twisted and ended up in wrong positions. All these explain why at times I'm so unladylike but up till today I still miss those days. The fun times of my childhood days.
Last, I wish there were more customers so I didn't have to daydream that often and scribble your name all over my daily sales report.

My Workplace Is Hell But It Brings Childhood Memories

A Tough Way To Love
I really appreciate the effort you took just to surprise me at my workplace which brightened another boring working day of mine. You never fail to put a smile on my face.
I've been fighting a battle with myself. There's this honest voice in my head saying things like, "It won't work out", "Keep dreaming but you'll never reach it", "In the end, you would be torn and battered" but at the same time, another stubborn voice inside my heart spoke up and it's easy to follow what my heart says without realizing the price I would have to pay in the future. At times, being naive is good. That's why my heart tends to rule my head, following my instincts blindly. It's not that I'm not aware that it's the tough way but I would gladly take the winding, grassy road less traveled by because you're worth it. Really.
P/S: I love Shrek but I love Shrek's talking donkey even more!

The Longing
I grew attached and accidentally lost my heart to you. I'm so dead but I'm actually glad I drunk dialed this unique, peculiar, perfumed, scented, honeyed, sugared talking donkey which took a little piece of my heart with it. Since then, there's you. The sweet you =D
And what would I do without you when you're gone? After searching I still can't find the answer. For all I know, my empty arms would be left with nothing to hold. I think over and the question in my head is "When can I hold what I truly want in my tiny hands again?"

Thank You For A Wonderful Night
I was about to add myself to the list of dead people but I'm glad I didn't join the few zombies roaming on earth.
Noob Vs. Pro. I know about this noob hai who tried hard to perform tricks and demonstrate stunts on the pool table but they turned out to be awfully ugly. It was quite embarrassing but heck, who cares? No matter how awkward, I would still be the first to have a good laugh at myself.
Didn't expect a pool night would end up to be something different but I have to agree with you that spontaneous events bring much exhilaration. Thanks =)
I just kept looking down,
I st-st-stuttered when you asked me what I'm thinking 'bout."

Independence: A New Beginning
She glared at the girl in the mirror with narrowed eyes shooting daggers, pointed and said to her unwaveringly, "From today onwards, you're capable of taking care of yourself. He's not gonna care if you're dead or alive. You have to fight on your own in order to live. There's no dead end in this world. Unless you choose to die!"
