of breakfasts and laundromats

For countless mornings now, i've been planning to have cereal or a homemade ham sandwich for breakfast.. These lofty plans are made before bed and carried thru dreamland and the REMs before i finally awaken to a brand new day.. ... only to realise that s#%t it's too late and i hv to rush to get ready.. I whisper a short prayer to God thanking Him for the new day.. and ask that He goes before me.. AND i apologise for using s#%t earlier! :) haha

SO.. my breakfast plan doesn't bear any fruit and i'm left to fend for myself jostling in the mtr with countless far more experienced hongkongese (that's what they call themselves!) commuters trying to get to work.. all of this, on an empty stomach.. How sad is that? :( worst part of this whole ordeal is that i never know what to buy for breakfast because obviously the decision-making function of my brain is not awake this early in the morning...

Note to self.. I wanna have cereal or a homemade sandwich at least ONCE before I leave this country for good!

And... laundromats.. I like carrying laundry to the laundromat.. It gives me an artificial sense of importance and accomplishment (though if I were all that important or accomplished, I wouldn't be bringing my laundry anywhere by myself!) Anyhow, this rainy morning, I decided to wash two rain jackets and my bedsheets.. And I'm still utterly amazed at how washing 2 rain jackets can cost 5x more than a whole big bag of sheets! How do they do the math I wonder.. ?

Almost at work now.. raining kittens and puppies today.. Thank God for a brand new day.. with or without breakfast :)

of deserted blogs and fresh new starts

so... i return to -a white bubble- ever so often, just to catch up on the past and to will myself to begin writing again.. but it seems each time i return, the cobwebs and inertia seem too overwhelming and i give up before logging in.. :)

but tonight seems different.. i've been having so many thoughts/ideas/reflections over the past 5 months and i haven't had the time/energy to pen them.. which is such a pity because i'd like to know i had these thoughts another 5 months on..

i said to J a couple of days back that i'm a professional procastinator.. i amaze myself sometimes.. it must take quite a bit of talent to procrastinate the way i do..

so tonight i bravely swipe the cobwebs and muster up courage to begin writing again.. i dunno how long it'll last.. but for now.. just for now.. i'm content..

to commerate this lovely weed-debunking-cobwebs-swiping event (that has taken almost 2 1/2 years), i'm posting this lovely picture of my favourite flowers currently taken by one of my favourite friends, S.

love the pic!.. ... marks the days of new (2nd) beginnings.. don't we all love second chances?
