up and running

I haven't had and still don't have personal access to the net. Drat.

Anyhow, because of Pau's very encouraging post (thanks pau, you're the best!), I have willed to pull myself together and put my life back into place. As Gerald just told me a while ago, you've got to have a sense of urgency early on when things aren't really urgent yet or else the circumstances will force to have this sence of urgency themselves. Starting this second, I'm officially shifting to supergirl mode again. Haha.

On to other things:

I went to Odyssey-Gateway the other day and was browsing through some VCDs. This is a funny synopsis I read and I knew I had to copy all this in my phone:
Leung Chiu Wei and Willy were cartoonists. One day when they were on the way to office, they knocked down a lady-ghost Joey Wong. Joey's spirit was thus thrown into the human world. Joey knew nothing as it was the first time she came to a mundane of environment. At this time she met another demoness - Deanie Yip. Yip and her son were sentenced to death by village people because of adultery. Yip didn't do it but nobody believed her. Yip's only hope was to make her son revive from death. Thus when Yip met Willy, she selfishly kept herself and her son inspired by Willy's human spirit. She also intended to hurt Wei the same as well. Since Joey had fallen in love with Wei, she helped Wei to get away from Yip. Joey encouraged Wei to become a good cartoonist. Wei getting more and more famous. Joey became weaker and weaker being hurt by Wei's flourishing human vitality. Wei and Joey in fact were lovers in their previous lives. They were bound to be lovers again.

I got confused halfway through reading it. This is from an Asian (HK, Taiwanese, Japanese, not sure which exactly) movie entitled Fantasy Romance.

During the same afternoon, I was at Farmers' Mall and it was raining very hard. While Gerald and I were walking along, we saw that people were watching something at the ground floor from the rink which all malls have at the middle. We thought there was a show or something. Turns out that the bottom floor was already being flooded and the people manning the stalls there were scrambling to save their goods. I was surprised that a mall, even a cheap one (haha snob), was prone to floods. Those tenants better get discounts on their rents.

Later that afternoon, we were going to go home through the LRT. But because it rained earlier, there was a slight delay in the coming of the train according to the girl over the loudspeaker. Slight? How about super-duper. We were already waiting for 40 minutes or so. Anyway, I was regretting my decision to take the LRT instead of the jeepney, when a completely empty train came but from the opposite direction. Naturally, people immediately rushed forward ready to board. However, the doors remained closed. I thought that we were being given false hopes and that this train wasn't meant for us when Gerald realized the driver had to go to the opposite end so he could drive in the right direction. Yay! Finally, the doos did open and we easily got a seat. I find it hard to explain but I felt exhilarated upon seating down. I wanted to jump up and down but I had to content myself with just grinning from ear to ear. I just felt that it was so amazing that when we were nearing despair, this train from the opposite end came to rescue us out of the blue. The whole thing was like salvation, as in God's, totally unexpected and oh so full of joy. Thank you God. :)
