dubai is a bitchin' place to be.
it may also not.

i'm sitting in the bussiness lounge,
surfing wifi, sipping lemon tea,
eating spring chicken and waiting
for the 'wing.

is this my dream?

well.

i won't be writing in a while.
i doubt anyone'll notice.

so.

Assalamu'alaikum.

don't consume malaria tablets unless
it's really necessary.

seriously.

in approximately one week, i will be
travelling to ethiopia.

balik kampung raya.

i am kind of eager to travel there,
since it is beautiful there (although
some might disagree). but the thing is,
it's kind of isolated there. you know.

i know this might sound 'corn'-ey, but
you're fine if you feel alone, but not
if you're feeling lonely.

it's true, you know. i was there last
year for a whole month, and i had a
smittering of the whole 'alone/lonely',
and i gotta tell you,.....

it tugs at your heart, you know. for
example, me, the cold-hearted guy. i felt
some sorrow for being such a distance
from my loved ones.

i think it gets worse once you're
married.

i guess.

but that's another subject.

last weekend was the most shittiest weekend that i have ever experienced.

i've always had crappy weekends, but i never thought i'd experience the
mother of all bad weekends.

for starters, i set out to low yat on saturday to look for some electronics, see? earlier,
my little sister asked me to buy her a laptop so that she could do her assignments on 'em.
so, being thoughtful, i looked for budget laptops there.

i found one.

i bought it. after three hours of walking around, haggling a bit. my feet hurt.

afterwards, i headed straight for where she lived. i decided to surprise her. so i called her first.
i asked her is she still finishing the assignments.

she said she finished them and got no more for the rest of the semester.

in short, i ended up with a 2k laptop that i'll not use.

today, i'm supposed to go to my grandpa's get-together for his bday. it was scheduled at 8pm.

so i went out and bought a gift. and wore my best clothes. and as i went there, i made sure
that i made it early.

i did made it early. 7.56.

i found nobody there. only one of my relatives.

apparently, it was held at 4.30pm. nobody told me. i looked like an idiot.

to sum it up, i arrived 5 minutes early only to find out that i was 4 hours late.

and as i walked back to my car, it started raining.

i decided to get dinner from my favourite stall on the way home.

it was closed.

i ended up with dinner someplace else.

and as i'm writing this, a dvd in my laptop is malfunctioning.

could anyone experience a more horrific weekend? mail me. wish me luck in
opening my mail.
