formalities

hmm... i'm supposed to be sleeping now. but whats new eh?

there's a formal dinner function tonight that i'm supposed to attend. god how i hate such things. especially the formal part. it feels all stuffy, pompous, and most of all, fake. i mean, come on, all the smiles and joking aside, there's probably going to be some daggers hidden behind and who knows, maybe someone will get stabbed if something wrong is said or done at the night.

i guess i must be the world's unofficial best customer. haha. either that, or i just look the part. for the past 2 days, all the shops i patronised, to put it nicely, had some delays attending to my purchases. guess i must be cursed. if my calculations are correct, the total time spent waiting for the problems to be resolved roughly amounts to an hour. all i did was smile, said 'nevermind'. i expected nothing. afterall, i once worked as a cashier too. i understand what they would feel. in the end, i got some freebies from the people. 1 auntie even said i was the nicest guy; no complaints. *blush* haha. i guess some good can indeed come from all the waiting.

i just spent the whole of yesterday, which was my off day, doing nothing but staring at screens. which i am still doing now, apparently. started by playing games on the computer, then watched some dvds when bored. i planned to go out in the afternoon, but it rained heavily then. but i was too lazy to haul my bum out of the house anyway. it felt good to have some time on my own, but it feels like the day is wasted. if only it didnt rain, maybe things would have been different.

everyone's apparently busy these days. the guys in university have their exams coming up, the guys in the army seems to tio duties a lot these days. i'm starting to miss my workplace and the guys under me already. not to mention smoking with them.

dang about tonight's dinner function. i think someone is going to get bothered by me tonight, =p.

i hate formalities...
