the weekend zipped off before it even came. yupz, one more bz weekend. friday evening was calm and quiet, and yeah, did mention coffee? now, that's become a ritual, friday evening = yap at coffee shop. more like bitch about life =D and complain to single friends about how desparately u NEED smone in your life. well, just that in my case, i do mosta the listening when it comes to this subject, thanks to misty's endless ranting! but heck, its actually fun. the coffee shop plays these ever-so-lovely songs and we sit there being all nostalgic and blue, smtimes happy to just be there though :)

saturday morning was when the hectic weekend really kicked off, had this meeting like really reaally early in the morning ... topped it up with a chat session with this geeky friend of mine ... u know one of those boys who never got into shit when in high school, this guy's just one of them. perfect. you can almost see that halo around his head. geez, how much i tease him for being so "good". but s'times its fun to hang out with him. i can shoot my mouth off, sound like a complete idiot and i know it wont matter (mostly so cos he already thinks of me as this total nincompoop!) hehe. nice guy though, he's kinda always there for you when you're down and out. makes you feel less shitty and helps you see that light at the end of the tunnel, just when you think all there is to life is darkness. *touchwood* i hope he continues to be the same nice guy, and that i click with him well always =) bumped into S and a whole buncha the rest on my way back from the meeting, its always a pleasure to see some of them.

last week, grannie had been in the hospital over some gastric problem. Dr S was there to take care so i was not worried, though mama had her blood pressure all high bcos of it. just to make sure things were alrite i tinkled grannie saturday morning, and it was such a relief talking to her!

anyway, saturday afternoon i FINALLY bought myself a camera ... this plan was underway since god-knows-how-long, and it was finally done this saturday! phew! got myself this 4 MP Canon digicam and have been clicking away ;-) oh i love it!

later that nite was a fren's bday bash, where i met the whole buncha them .. NJ was there too, but he behaved as if he dint know me, for watever reason ... hmm.. weird after thursday's rendezvous, don't you think?! but well well, who cares ... i met joe there .. he was a sweetie .. (as usual, these days *touch wood* ) ... so was S , aze and all of them really. sweet hearts, s'times!

then came my sleepie sunday .. yupz, slept until noon. woke up to find out about the pope's demise. *minute's silence to pay my respects* i'm not a catholic, but the "world leader" aspect drew me into feeling concerned. though it does piss the hell outta me when ppl call us fundamentalists .. looks at this .. how much is being said and written now ... and they say we make a hullaboo ... i have muslim friends too, they're not fanatic. but as a faith, islam is very fundamentalistic. if you were to ask me so is christianity. they're looking to convert every non Xian. and then they say we are fundamentalists. i fail to understand s'times. anyway, i guess with the sympathy wave bcos of the pope's death, i better not say too much. not me. i never did feel so strongly about any religion, forget mine, until people started talking lowly about my religion. I am not islamic or christian and where i used to stay, we were a majority. so never really bothered me. now when i hear people talk badly of my faith, it really gets on my nerve. cos as a majority, not once have i felt privileged or better taken care of in my country, where as i said we are the damn majority. and then there are people from other faiths who believe all the wrong that has happened to them is because of us. believe me, if there's one thing my faith preaches it is diversity. we never believed in unity, to the extent of being fundamentalist. my religion does not even pray to one god. what are they accussing us of, i fail to understand. anyway, this was some random rambling. blurting out some things off the top of my head. if anyone reading this is offended - nope, not meant to offend you. i wont apologize, cos i believe what i have written isnt wrong. and after all, we all have a right to expression.

well well well, all this said and done, sunday evening i was off to a dinner invitation. was a friend's bday treat where we went to this grand ethnic restaurant. we'd planned a bday surprise for her and we had a good time there, though i was in an alien crowd, so to speak. not my gang. but had fun, and i guess that should matter the most =) got back rather late sunday night and there, my weekend was over and before i knew it, the sunday night blues had struck! this monday was one of the hardest to get outta bed and come to work .. yes, come, becos here i am writing this post from work, cos i'm really tired of working on my code. sighz! its gotten all cold and freezy out here... fingers getting numb. i better stop now, ciaoz!
