SILENT OCCULUS

Wow. It's been a while.

Just returned from KL...went Christmas shopping... but the sad thing is, the night before a disaster happened. Probably bad mojo from the monobrowed monster. I was there on my desk surfing the Net when I got peckish. so I made myself a glass of milk. As I was struggling with the tin of Lo-Salt Hi Fibre biscuits, I bumped into the glass but I ignored it. But as I peeled my eyes off the tin, all i saw was a milky flood on my keyboard! With a string of colorful expletives, I hurriedly disconnected the charger and my broadband. Then the screen flickered, and it restarted. Without having second thoughts I disconnected the battery and hard disk too, remembering something from the laptop manual. Hugging my laptop like a mum holds her long lost child, I cooed and coaxed my laptop from its coma...I practically cried that night. The laptop is my life - study, homework, social life, my connection to the world, practically. Then I resigned to letting it dry. Not a moment goes by in KL that I don't worry for my laptop. I didn't even tell my mum - I didn't dare, unless I was in the mood for a bleeding ear. Then I returned to JB Monday midnight, and with high hopes that it will snap out of its coma...ALHAMDULILLAH, it's back on! :D

KL was fun, but it would be more fun if the laptop incident didn't happen.

Saturday - Started journey 11.30am. Went to Putra station heading for KL Sentral. Walk the short distance to Monorail for Times Square. Texted Dylah coz I forgot which station to stop on (thanks Dylah!) then arrived. My fave jeans shop wasn't open....but I bought a sweater, and got the jeans from another place. Then walked over to Sg Wang. No good either - not much to see...nothing caught my eye in these two locations. And it was SEARING HOT. Even in the short walk from TS to Sg Wang I loathed.

Afterwards, came out of Sg Wang to head for the Monorail station back to KL Sentral. Walked the short (and HOT) distance outside to BB station. Kept my cool, kept my wayfarers on, witht eh optimism that in case something stupid happens, I'd not be there in the nearest future. Ha3... went back to KL Sentral, and thought of whether to go to KLCC or Mid Valley. The second destination was the choice. It is here that I shopped - Vincci watch, new high tops, black jeans, some other stuff...couldn't find the right vest. And Topman wasn't adequately stocked. Many things were sold out.

After Mid Valley, there was plenty of time left, so I decided to wrap things up with KLCC and Pavilion. I witnessed the 8pm snowfall. Marvelous. I was feeling the moment, a la Korean series...thank goodness I have the face to pull it off :P then went home, exhausted...seriously. I slept like a baby that night. Ha3~

Sunday - Went to 1 Utama coz Aunty had to go to church. Met up with Kak Anie. Shopped and laughed and basically had TONNES of fun. It's been a while since I've laughed that hard. Love the moment - she sent me to Pudu, so before that we took my stuff from the house and went over to Pasar Seni, my dream destinantion. Finally I got to go. I saved the intention to go to Pasar Seni since I was 1 years old, imagine that.

Only just now C replied to my message. I realized how stupid I was. I was holding onto a frayed rope, with high hopes of being rescued. But now I know better. I deserved it. So what. I still am human capable of mistakes. YOU don't have the right to step on my face. I shall sever all ties with C. It'll be like I never knew C. There shall be no goodbye too.
