Spinning: Starfield - Unashamed
I'm taking a break from the excel spreadsheets that face me, though I gotta slug it out with them again later. I just found out today that I got a C+ for accounting. Frankly, I'm not surprised; I kinda anticipated it because I didn't study some chapters. But even with the anticipation, it was still a downer.

On a brighter note! I was doing some work on the laptop on Friday when suddenly, I receive a call in the middle of the night. Middle of the night calls freak me out like hell because you never know; it could swing two ways - it could be good news or bad news - I've received both before. But it turned out to be Elke, and she told me, quite anxiously, that she had made the boo-boo of buying movie tickets online for a 1.50 a.m. movie that very night (or morning), instead of the 1.50 p.m. slot the following afternoon! So she asked me to go with her, or else the tickets would go to waste. So we call along TPP who, obviously, hadn't slept yet.
And that was how I ended up watching My Sister's Keeper (or My Sister's Helper according to TPP HAHA!) at 1.50 a.m. Elks, TPP and I hopped into Sophie Swift, vroomed to Park Mall only to find the stupid carpark closed, and vroomed again to the Cathay which has a most confusing carpark layout. Anyhow, My Sister's Keeper - quite a heart wrenching tale about love and loss. A certain TPP was overflowing with emotions and tears; she makes me feel like a robot.

Elke says, that wasn't the most eventful thing of the day though. After the movie we headed down to Geylang (near Elk's place) to eat some dimsum for supper; it is the most awesome dimsum place I tell you. And it helps that it's always abuzz with activity - so that means there's always a chance to people-watch. And people-watch we did; there were
all types of people there. In one night, we saw... a band decked in black, various other tattoo-ed characters, and the most amusing of all, a band of prostitutes whom I suspect are not locals. They stumbled in, cakey make-up, outrageous eye-shadow and all, quite visibly drunk. This particular lady had her arms around 2 other ladies, and she was teetering, on the verge of falling onto Elke and TPP. Minutes later, a bunch of middle-aged men followed through, I suspect they were local, and started their hooligan-ish antics. Lots of touching, staring, and basically being idiots. Urgh, I still have that mental image of this particular guy who was draping himself over a girl.
But it was interesting. :) The most spontaneous thing I've done since... exchange?!

Every day, I lose a little more faith - I am not talking about God, I am talking about people. This is why I rarely let my emotions get the better of me, it's dangerous. I suppose mystery is always enticing, but once the veil is lifted, that's it.
