Life is a ball of thread. It generally keeps together but if left alone with the cat, soon it’ll unravel and become a mess of knots.
Right now, I am trying to make use of what little time I have to tie up the loose ends of my life. And also not play with cats, if you get what I mean.
There are so many facets in life, and all need to be polished.
For example, I spent half my Saturday trying to compile my music library into my Lenovo laptop, which alas, does not have a CD Drive. Since I have new music to incorporate, which I will talk about later.
My birthday is coming soon. It is tomorrow, in fact.
One thing I realised is my lack of effort to remember the birthdays of friends, even the ones beloved to me. So unless I start putting all of them in a calendar so I don’t forget (because I am definitely not able to remember all by heart), I have a better idea.
Instead of expecting to be treated well in my birthday, I will be extra nice to people instead. Like buy them Subway cookies or something.
Of course, one gift I am expecting is the Taupok. That’s something I cannot run away from, especially in the men’s club that is the army.
My aunt brought me out for a lipsmacking timsum meal at the Crystal Jade at Vivocity. It must have been expensive. I really thank her for bringing me there to enjoy one of the foods you will be hardpressed to find in the camp cookhouse.
She also paid for music albums we wanted as a birthday present. I got The Resistance album by Muse. It already had been in my sights for a while as I as I had been listening to it on Grooveshark.com for some time. I was also looking for the (500) Days of Summer soundtrack album but so far the search has been futile. One day I will have to make my way to the better-stocked HMV in town.
It rocks.
So many awesome computer games are coming out, e.g. Modern Warfare 2. Too bad my (broken) rig can’t even support games like the classic Team Fortress 2. Oh well, but computers are so expensive.
The Modern Warfare 2 trailer is seriously epically theatrical.
One day, I will get a nice, brandname watch.
Au revoir, mon ami.
