Lost Boys

As Neighbour and I shared a taxi home from Mandarin class, we discussed each of our Sunday shopping sprees. Mine was more of a lament over my mostly failed Sunday shopping.
When I set out late Sunday afternoon I had a purpose. First, I was going to walk to Orchard Rd (about 2 miles) to [...]

Stupidity

Sometime between midnight and 1 am, he needed cigarettes. The closest place to get them was about an 8 minute walk away. He was too wrapped up in the football (soccer) match to go get his own. In order to get me to be his cigarette bitch, he promised me a massage if I went [...]

Report Card

The one thing that was consistent all the way through school was on almost every report card my teachers indicated that I needed to participate more in class. Other than one instance in high school, I was the quiet one. I did not raise my hand unless I was absolutely, dead sure that I knew [...]

White light

Bloody hell this week went by in a flash. Until this afternoon, I barely had time to notice that my friends are still out of town and I am facing yet another boring weekend.
Monday, I was sequestered in secret project meetings ALL day. I was supposed to have every other hour off to do my [...]

More food tried

It barely rates on the scale of grossness. At lunch today I had shark fin soup. Not too bad. Much better than turtle soup.
The rest of the dim sum? Spectacular.

Interesting turn of events

As of Wednesday, both of my regular playmates/partners in crime were out of town. And without my normal cast of characters around to entertain me, I was planning a boring weekend.
On top of being alone this weekend, my old Sydney office is having a massive party Friday night. I would have absolutely loved to have [...]
