You Silly Silly Girl

It's astonishing how much we have in common. I've already established that we were similar in many ways. But this, really seals the deal for me. I am convinced we could be sisters from different parents.

Simple words. Yet meaning runs deep. I've genuinely missed those words. Still do actually.

Ingrid marathon on Grooveshark at work today. Today's picks were - Turn To Stone, Into You and Corner of Your Heart. Love!

I need to work out more. I could do with some weight loss. I'd be so much hotter I'd like to be fitter in general. Run with me!

Hong Kong in May is really happening. With the recent turn of events though, a small part of me is starting to regret it ever so slightly. But hey, it's a choice to make negatives into positives. And if it really doesn't go well, this can be the last.

"I hope you always find a reason to smile".

There is this one photo with that caption that I have saved as one of my screen savers on my work desktop. Today in particular, I stared at it for longer than usual, and probably without really realizing it, I had said a quick prayer - I do really hope you will always find a reason to smile.

Monologue: Laugh at me lah, laugh. It's a good thing I am comfortable in my own skin and that I have healthy esteem. And I like that people find my quirkiness cute.

These days, when I close my eyes, I don't quite know what to think. I am (again) in that phase. Time will tell though right? Perspectives, come to me.

I'll be a quarter of a century old this year! /gasps

Hello senior,

That's the reason why you accessorized and dressed up cutely today.? Gotta be honest, simply refreshing. A free therapy for everyone's eyes.

Isn't it 家有一老,如有一宝? The office surely will appreciate to have another treasure. Soon.
Hmm you will be off around May/June. We are planning to get souvenirs for everyone when we are attending the Germany, Austria conferences. So we should just exclude getting yours?

Oh, and is Anujah or Jue Ying the head administrator? Or do such position actually exists at the first place? I've got some important questions to ask and not quite sure who should I ask.

Hell Junior,

I always attempt to dress up. It's really for my own benefit. I look pretty, I feel happy. Easy.

The office? Another treasure?

Who's going to Germany / Austria! I want to go too! And no lah, if it's gonna be a keychain, I am fine without it, thanks very much.

Jue Ying is the Manager, Anujah is the assistant manager. But it depends on what you need, that'll determine who the right person is for you to talk to.

=)

Hmm.. never know you hated me so much to the extent you actually started the conversation with "hell". I see, so if it happens that one day you don't look decent, everyone should just stay away from you.

I meant, when you grow older, you will become more precious.

You weren't serious when you were saying you wanted to go to Germany and Austria (the conference is kind of like a trip, it was held at 3 places, 2 countries) with us right? I mean you are going to join people who you aren't really close. Not mentioning you don't even know who I am. Of course you are welcome if you really mean it. Everything will become cheaper if more are joining (Fees are a lot cheaper if its 2+2 than 2+1). 3 people are going, my supervisor and 2 of her students (Shangarri, if you know who she is and me).

Since we will be going Europe, might as well have a nice Europe trip before coming back (Supervisor wanted to go Paris, Shang wanted to go Norway). So no, it won't be keychain. That's too boring and we have enough time to get something more interesting.

I see, so generally, Jue Ying should have the highest authority. Will address the questions to her then.

Thank you and have a nice weekend.

Ai said...

Hahaha, my apologies. It was a typo, I had meant to say hello.

Well, it's true I have no clue who you are. But there's certainly no harm in meeting new friends. One of my many life philosophies, friends are to be made anywhere and everywhere, provided they're not some evil mastermind.

Anyway, I am thinking you're the new RA working with Shang. And I am sorry but I don't know your name. You can say hi next time and we can shake hands and be friends.

And yes it's true, the one day I don't look decent, don't bother coming close. I might bite.

Hahaha, have a good weekend too.

KRY said...

Haha, I've never doubt about the fact that you would just bite anyone who dare to come across you, especially when you aren't in good mood. After all, you represent the rose and iceberg.

And nope, I'm not one of the RAs. Although I can freely attend any of the session, provide any help whenever I want, but I'm definitely not one of the RA or consultant.

I see, you surely are a Geminian haha. To me, I can say "hi, bye" and start any conversation with anyone, anywhere, everywhere. But to take one as a friend, it requires more. So you are saying, you are comfortable even if you are travelling with people you aren't close with? Good for you then =). Hmm, to be honest, I kind of wanted you joining us, for the sake of my wallet. I could save at least 300+ with you joining.

So do inform earlier if you really mean it. I will then introduce myself after you've decided to come with us, or you can only decide after knowing who am I? But from what you were saying, it would seems you do have an idea on who am I, just without the name. Hmm

Ai said...

Hahaha, rose for being pretty and iceberg for being cold and unfriendly? LOL

Anyway, as much as I would love to travel, I probably can't afford taking all that time off work. Saving my leaves so that I can do more events this year.

But thanks for the invite. Like I said, you can always come introduce yourself, since obviously at this juncture you know where to find me.

I think we'd make decent friends.

KRY said...

Hmmm, actually, I meant "deadly" haha! Jack would have survived if he didn't meet Rose; and if it wasn't that iceberg, Titanic could have became a ship museum, receiving tons of admirations. If you are pretty + not harmful, I would have used arum lily instead.

Knowing where to find you is one thing, when to find you is another. Inappropriate planning could easily ended up being a public humiliation! Worse if I got caught by supervisor or any other lecturer who know me. You see, I don't really expect to have an early and holy Christmas. So, maybe not in office haha.

The Croods eh? Eep kind of like you. Impulsive, daring, high in curiosity and even the height and skin color haha! I mean, not many girls are dare enough to start something new, like Eep dares to walk out of the cave, like you dare to establish the sailing club. If you are interested making friend with Belt, fine then. An introduction + invitation of lunch/dinner shall do the job.

Enjoy the movie!
