Ok, I have a lot going on. In fact, I've had a lot going on for about a month or so... So, my blog posts are sporadic and ancient when I finally get around to updating. So, I'm going to take it to the next level and jump around a lot. I'd much rather write about what I've been up to lately instead of going back and then just pushing off anything that has happened to me recently. So, here comes the literary gymnastics!
Today: 15 Feb. 2009: Da da da, Elastica cover...awesome.
I decided on Friday that all of my clothes were too inadequate for the weather here. I looked through my closet and just couldn't find anything to wear despite all of the clothes that hung before me. It happens. Well, Friday was my birthday, but I forgot to get prepared so I didn't have a birthday outfit to wear. I just looked through all of my regular clothes and all of the material was just too thick. I tried on about 5 outfits of clothing and ended up in one of them...although, I wasn't loving it. That night I went out with my new friend S and her friend-of-a-friend S. We had dinner in Holland Village with a flamboyantly crazy waiter. I loved him! I haven't had a waiter like that in Singapore yet! I mean, if I wasn't getting tipped, I wouldn't have been so energetic either, but he was special. In a crazy way. After dinner we headed over to the White Rabbit and met up with some ex-pats. S. introduces us to her friend P. They chitchat for a while and then there's a lull in the conversation.
So, I ask P. where he's from.
Minnesota.
Really? Where?
His eyes are curious: Duluth. Where are you from?
The Cities, St. Paul.
Oh that's strange! I went to the University of St. Thomas.
What year did you graduate?
2001.
I graduated in 2004. And so on... Basically, we don't know each other, but we had one overlapping year. So strange. I never coincidentally met anyone from my school in NY. But I move half way around the world and here he is. Go figure. Fun night though.
Anyway, I went shopping today (Sunday) and listened to my iPod as I wandered from store to store on Orchard Rd. Elastica came on and I suddenly remembered how I earned an A in my senior year German class in high school. Da, da, da...
- I still have a ladyboy story to get into...but, I'm too tired at the moment... I'll save it for another day along with some more historical backlogging of posts I need to finish up.
