a lazy sunday afternoon. just came back from tuition n lunch. as i was telling my fren, yah i certainly missed that crazy tuition deal last yr, making 500+++ bucks each month, but i am a lot happier too bcoz i dun have to rush back home 2 or 3 times a wk for that. instead, i can take my time to read trashy magazines on a lazy sunday afternoon instead of fugutively on the buses/ trains.

#2 stop buying trashy magazines.
broken on the 8th day of the year.

what is the lure of trashy magazines? the glossy pages? the technicolours arranged in sequence? the picture perfect shots? of the pple, of the places? the promises of changes to come? the potential to change? the possibilities and ways that open up right in front of u like the manual to a happy and fulfilling life? the ways they make u feel good abt urself, the ways they make u feel bad abt urself? the sense of urbanity? the whimsicals to feed on?

at the beginning of last holidays, i said i'll re-do my room. sadly, i haven't done so. i had imagined it so: cover up the loud oranges n blues n yellows. with muted greens. or maybe red n cream stripes running down the walls. get rid of the ikea boxes n get some wooden ledges up n display all my trashy magazines n cds, proudly rather than shove them into a corner. a big n heavy white bookcase for all the intellectual books n magazines. some candy containers in easy-to-reach corners. turn colourful tshirts that i dun wear a'more into one-of-a-kind pillowcases. bamboo sticks to define the walls n hold up the curtains. tack up one of the walls n turn it into a bags display. a new big keepsake container coz the old ones are bursting (thanx girls *winkz*). throw out the red n white bedsheets n get peaceful plays of whites and creams (i think, i may have to sew these myself). clean out the wardrobe.

unfortunately, the energy level languished n i haven't done any of those. maybe half of the last item. and i did developed and arranged all the 800 photos. that's the whole bad thing abt digital cameras: u nv develop photos a'more.

instead, i sank my hands into earth. and i found that i love that feeling. next on the list: learn to cook. or bake. sink my hands into dough. valentine's coming n it's time for reds, whites, polka dots n chocolates.

we have so many grand plans for the new yr. i wish to move away too.

din't i tell u that i like red? (altho' i wanna throw away my red HP n red pencil case) last night, i was saved by a prince charming in red!
