bhajue

nk tulis ape hari ini? i slept at 5.30 am n woke up at 9.30..smue gara2 nk kluar berdeghat dgn pakwe aku...i contemplated on what to wear,n what i chose added 7 yrs to my age..headed to his hse where his mum made lunch which proceeded to the start of my episode with chocolate today..we had chocolate fondue on his balcony..it was breezy,noisy n dusty..sesuai dgn fondue itu..my love affair with chocolate is intense,eternal n a gratification of all sorts..

we went to bijou bazaar afterwards..it was hot,stuffy n as always,like bees to honey,like flies to sampah, girls flock to clothes bazaars as if mcm ape yg saya describe sebelumnye..n of course where there are a hot girls a-flocking, men with indescribable eagerness are always nearby..n i was rm 40 poorer.

lepas tu kan kite tk tau nk buat ape..tell me what else is there to do n where else is there to go in KL on a weekend..segala pelosok gedung dan pusat membeli dan membelah have been scaled n it is always d same...aimless wandering,aimless gazing, aimless whining,n aimless spending on mahal mcm puaka anak haram parking..so tetibe we decided to go somewhere we haven't been to in ages...central market n petaling street..sebelum ni saya tk pnah lg pegi tgk the newly refurbished CM n ive only been to PS once...CM was,cold.aircon wise n a bit n atmosphere wise..it was a blessing frm the sweltering heat outside..bt as always,commercialism n the effects of tourism,the barangs there were overpriced..i hope,becoz of that,pembuat brg2 tu kaya raya lah...sebab saya tk cukup kaya pon nk beli...PS was,...as it was the last time i went..probably more organized...interesting,it was organized chaos in PS..n only in a proud muhibbah country such as msia wld u walk by a chinese n an indian peddler argue in cantonese...n not too long ago i was at the mamak near the annexe,or restoran mamak annexe n what i observed cld probably be a great (k.o.non) muhibbah movie made by yasmin ahmad n starring sharifah amani..there were a few tables with young adults or teenagers that are clearly (hopefully)in love with the arts..there were a few tables that had men not more than 45 y.o wearing leather jackets n rough jeans ala A.Galak n the whole gerak khas team going undercover..there were a few singletons pretending to only care abt the food infront of them...n there was a table with 6 or 7 ppl who were so engaged n engrossed in their borak sessions...bt it ws not the usual perborakkan where their buahahahahbuahah reverberates the whole building..it was quiet tp penuh semangat..ni sebab group itu adalah group yg ckp gune sign language...walaubagaimanapun, saya rase,smue table2 dan org2 yg duduk kat table ni smue tgh ckp pasal cite yg lebih kurang same..pasal kesempitan kewangan dan taraf hidup brought by the current inflation n looming recession...pasal kenaikkan harga minyak...pasal bola..pasal keluarga..pasal awek..pasal pakwe...pasal mak bapak tk memahami..pasal laki atau bini masing2 yg tk memahami..pasal kerajaan yg mcm sial...pasal parti pembangkang mcm sial...pasal kisah cinta artis tempatan...pasal menyelak tepi kain org lain...pasal kerja..pasal tknk keja..pasal cari kerja...pasal nk jual bende tk elok..pasal nk beli bende tk elok..pasal nk jadi manusia..pasal dh tknk hidup lagi sbg manusia..dan bermacam2 pasal lg...saya tertarik dgn kumpulan itu yg berckp menggunakan tangan mereka..aksi mereka..kerutan di dahi mereka...senyuman yg merekah di bibir mereka...the way their eyes danced as they gaily signed away...if i were to make a movie,it wld be abt the experience i had n what most others too that takes place dkt kedai mamak...n it will be called buih...mcm buih teh tarik tuh...mcm itulah buih yg ade di mulut org2 ni smue yg berborak sakan kt kedai mamak...mcm itulah buih that people need to cleanse their sins..mcm itulah buih yg boleh bwk kite ke alam fantasi,either floating in the air or bobbing on water..mcm itulah buih yg boleh membawa maut...

so dont burst my bubble

What about those many silent admirer of yours. They come, they read, and they go. And without you knowing it, they again come, they read, and they go. Are they not your loyal fans too? Selalunya a pretty girl macam you ni, tentu banyak silent admirer kan?
