the mid autumn that went away...
I remembered I took a buncha silly photographs during last year's mid autumn. That was the last day of the 1 week break.
Yesterday, I went to work happily. The lrt train broke down in the morning. I wasn't abit irritated. I know I am gonna be very late becus of that. But I wasn't abit worried. I was calmly playing with my baby (nds) on the train at phoenix station, happily thinking that it will be a lovely friday.
When i reached, I started up everything, including meebo msn. I sent out lovely smses before i started to work. I was so looking forward to my day. I was half researching and half hoping ppl will drop me a msg or two. But until I left my table, the only person who talked to me is my butty. I left my table at 1130am for takashimaya to make preparations for the mid autumn get-together event. Came back at 230pm to make further preparations for the get-together and again, kena spotted by turtleking and we are being accused of eating snake. I left before the get-together ends to catch a conference video with my koliques. By the time i returned to my desk, it was already 640pm.
Tired, sleepy, I login to my comp to realise I have forgotten to switch off my meebo. Received lotsa msgs but most ppl are offline already by then. It was late . I felt a pity for not being able to reply them earlier. Meebo is unlike the msn we used at homes. It's hidden in a browser. Neat.. so neat until you don't remember you have switched it on. So, if I ever ignored you on msn, during office hours, and without picture on msn. I am as good as am being away. Common sense ya?
Any complaints put me into doubts that I've sold my soul to my work. Worse still, I'm not even putting in 100% effort into work yet. And it ruined my day like that. My plans. My day. They are gone like that.
But orite lah. My day didn't end there. My kor suggested playing lanterns and candles.. and because i'm such a lazybum. We are playing in my neighbourhood. It was really hazy then and I was having 2nd thoughts for going out. But heck. It's midautumn on a friday night we are talking about right? And no one else has asked me out too. It was really fun. We walked and talked on our way to deanna's place. Played the noisy sparklers there and finally ended the night/morning playing candles at the void deck.
Kor, you might think that i was feeling obliged to go lanterning with you. But in actual fact, I want to go out too. Thanks for asking me out. :D
Ohh, i've taken quite a number of photographs too. :p
+ + + + + + +
i can only blame myself for having high expectations. huh? is it even considered high?
