Elaine's Dim Moment....

This happened just half an hour ago.... You just wouldnt believe what goes through this woman's mind sometimes...

It was after lunch and it had started to rain when we were on our way back to the office... So when we got into the office and our auditor told me that there was a body shop promotion across the road.. Body bath selling for RM10 a bottle.. what a steal... but then it was raining... So I asked the auditor whether she was headed there and she said yes.. Happily I asked her to buy some for me.. then Elaine being the nosy one asked what was going on.. I told her and she stared at me... with her eyes big big and a smile equally as big... and she started blinking... I asked her "u want?" She nods... then I say tell the auditor what u want la.. then she looks at me and blinks again... I looked at her back and said.. "But it's raining!!!" and she blinks again and waves her hands at me telling me to come... ""but it's raining!!" and she looks at me, waves again and says "Come come!!" I said no unbrella and off she goes in search of one... I was just thinking in my head... "Why me!!!!????" So I told the auditor, it's okay then no need to buy for me... I will go with Elaine...

So happily Elaine came hopping back with the umbrella and down we went... stepped out of the office block and it was pouring... and the promo stall was so far away... so umbrella is opened and we rushed out... After 5 steps in the rain and my legs were wet... and then what else could go wrong you say? The street was pooling which meant water level was rising and me wearing sandles had to get my entire feet wet!!!!! All for 2 bottles of Raspberry scented body bath which I would have gotten without getting any part of me wet....

By the time we got back... my sandles have turned from purple to maroon coz it's soaked with water and Elaine just looks at me and smile... Showing me all her teeth... Haiz... the things I do for her... and guess what she said? She said "I didnt know it was raining..." I told her, didnt you borrow the umbrella coz it was raining? She says... "Oh ya hor....?"

I rest my case... It was a very dim moment in time....

A good weekend...

Been quite some time since I posted anything.... The past 2 weeks have been stressful... So stressful that I had my first nose bleed in the my entire lifetime...I had to cope with a huge sense of injustice that it just consumed me.... made my blood boil... I was angry and bitter but then I just realised... it is what it is... There is nothing I can do to change it but there is something I can do to make myself feel better... that is to not let it get to me... to try and see the brighter side of things and not focus so much on the things that upsets me...

I also came to realise I have many good friends around me who are there for me when I am down... thank you all for taking the time and listening to me lamenting at my poor pathetic life... :)

Last weekend was a break from my routine MBA classes.... Saturday I had my hair cut short as usual, had a nice dinner and movie outing.... It felt like a normal pre-MBA day... nice... :)
Sunday I became a busy body and followed along to a 4x4 Rally which my company participated in.... It was a boring but yet fun experience... got to shoot a few shots with the D2X... haha!! Has great company in the car who didnt mind me dozing off along the way... and it all ended with a meal of crabs... yum yum... my favourite... I dont know why but I get such a feeling of contentment when I am having crabs... but I do... in between the entire day I was having an interesting sms conversation with a fren... havent done that for a long time.. haha!

So all in all it was a good weekend... wish I had more of those...
