It's All In The Mind

It's just one of those days at work where things are slow and nothing seems to go right and everyone is too fired up over the silliest things to be much fun at all, so I might as well yank myself away from the whole mess and spend some time here updating my blog.

A new month and a new haircut, which turns out to be a good change as I have recieved much compliments for it, and it sure makes me feel good in a really shallow sort of way. I s'pose a new hairstyle is long overdued, and my right eye can finally see the light of day again after having my floppy fringe snipped off. A tad of a shock at first, as I could hardly recognize myself in the mirror, but I'm beginning to like it now.

Two more days before I head off for the protein conference and moving in to my new place straight after I return, I can't hardly wait for things to happen. I'm going a bit mental in my current place which is a total mess and having to live right out of boxes.

Watched "Closer" last week and both the film itself and the song have stayed with me for the whole week. I hate to be sentimental like that but the show has certainly touched me in a way. It's all about believing in love at first sight and the incessant search for it. The best thing about this film is that it doesn't go overly sappy or romantic but the whole idea was protrayed in a somewhat unconventional and even twisted sort of plot, and that's what totally captivated me. Of course, it sets me thinking as well if the person who has a recurring spot in my mind (for the past year or so) is a similar case to that of the characters in the film. I hate to admit that it is, because I am not s'pose to be sentimental like that, but it's becoming eerily true and I may have no choice but to accept the idea eventually. I hardly knew the person when we first met but I just can't seem to forget that first meeting, and yes, even till this very day (althought we have since gone on to be friends and all). The person certainly has many flaws and is hardly an admirable character, but I seem to convince myself (all the time, for some stupid ****ing reason) to overlook those flaws and give that person way too much credit and all that, and it freaks me out to no end to realise I am vulnerable to such nonsensical behaviour/ideas too.

I am so looking forward to the end of the day to have my Friday drink.
