Smell the roses.
[ 3:44 pm ] I was hanging out with Eric last Friday after work at The Curve. We had dinner at this place called Bubba Gump. Sound familiar? If you’ve watched Forest Gump, it’ll ring a bell. Guess what they serve there? Shrimps! I mean … prawns. Americans, want to be different from the rest of the world. Anyways, the food was awesome! Wish I had taken a few photos … but never mind la. Do give it a try if you’re there sometime. It’s always good to catch up with him. Since he moved to Damansara Perdana, it should be easy to meet up now. After that we made our way to Laundry for a little drink. Knowing me, it’ll take forever to pick the drink that I want … since I can be quite adventurous in my selections … We bumped into a famous Hong Kong Kung Fu movie star … weird, if he’s famous, how come I didn’t recognise him? We talked a lot about life in general. You know, how little we’d think about our priorities sometimes … until something really tragic happen? Then it puts everything into perspective. You won’t know how much you miss someone until they’re gone, you won’t know how much to appreciate life until you know someone who’s passed on, you won’t know how much someone meant to you, until they’re gone … or even, to enjoy the ‘journey’ and not the destination. I know, I can be the type that could be caught up in the ‘destination’ without giving much thought to the journey. Won’t the destination be sweeter knowing the eventful journey it had taken to reach there? As cliché as this might sound, I think this is where the saying, “Stop, and smell the roses” goes. Gonna be watching Ironman with Kanmani this coming Wednesday! I believe my fanboy geekiness could had influenced her :P Oh wait … maybe it was there all along. I couldn’t get the tickets online since GSC’s website is really crappy, so I tried Cineleisure, too bad the reservations were all full. Can you believe it? I was a little down, but that’s not gonna stop me from getting the tickets … so I drove all the way to Cineleisure (without knowing if it’s possible to purchase tickets in advance) … and I got the tickets! Hey, don’t try, won’t know, right? I bought a pair of gloves yesterday for weight training. Always wanted a pair of gloves ‘coz the bars do tend to hurt the palm of my hands, the gloves will help a lot. Guess what? I bought 2 sizes too small. What the heck. I did try … and it fitted nicely, somehow today it didn’t …. In fact, it was too tight. Hands don’t increase in size overnight, right? Haha. I managed the return the gloves for a new pair … after some ‘negotiations’. Ahem. Anyways, I’m pretty psyched up for Ironman! Looking forward to Wednesday AND the long weekend! Umm still not sure if I want to take Friday off or maybe just work from home. I could drop by AYA and Flatfish for a visit since I haven’t been there quite a while already. It should be nice. I’m a little bummed out that the weekend is gonna be over soon. Time seems to fly REALLY fast. I don’t want to be caught up in the midst of things without appreciating what each day has to offer. Stop to smell the roses? ;) 0 comments Archives nothing |
