(Why) Should I Care

Sunday

Took off for a strike (in theatre, to 'strike' means to take off everything from the production done - the lights and sets). I was being...ermmm...bad, and so I was late. (Why) should I care. IT'S WORTH IT!

Lighting strike finished early than expected. Went home, ahhh...the weather was just perfect - clear sky, cool air, nice weather. Perfect to sit at Starbucks and look (and be looked) at people. (Why) should I care. I FELT LIKE IT.

Didn't go Starbucks but created a 'Starbucks' at my balcony. Laptop and hot coffee and lounge-radio.com kept me company. Watching sunset. Oh, watching the colors in the sky...the silhouette of the trees...the turning into darkness. (Why) should I care. I LOVE IT!

Dinner planned by W. So, there's this website that tells you the picks of the week in town. You know, pubs, cafes, movies, restaurants, etc. Since he was very into 'the pick of the week', we (me, JJ, and X) agreed to his choice. A restaurant called 'Neo Viccini: Bar and Grille' located at N. Charles St, downtown (Baltimore). The picture in its website looks kinda sophisticated and high class. The price (he strongly suggested that we check it out, online) was okay. (Why) should I care. I'M A POOR STUDENT BUT I WANT NICE THING IN CHEAP-PRETTY-WORTHY (Cantonese says 'pheng, leng, jeng') PACKAGE!

We got there. Like the pic we saw online - nice decor. The crowd - 70% senior citizens. We had to wait for a table! Ok. So we waited to be seated right in the middle of the restaurant. (Why) should I care. LOCATION - ATTENTION, COME ON!

The price was exactly as we saw online. We ordered some appetizers and main entres. Heck, the shrimp coconut thingie with mango sauce (USD6.5) came...and ONLY 3 SHRIMPS! Not even the jumbo ones! I had a weird crab tomato soup (costs USD5!). I had a chicken penne. Urgh...to make the long story short, all our entres were tasteless. And we had to wait more than 30 mins for our food to come - it wasn't even packed when we got seated! (Why) should I care. I EXPECT MY USD19 FOR A DINNER WELL SPENT!

Drove to Inner Harbor to see the lights of the city by the water, at Federal Hill. The moon was kinda big, in orange color, half-moon shape. Walked around, took some pics...ahhh, JJ brought her camera with her. (Why) should I care. 'A' MEMORY!

Wednesday

I almost couldn't sleep last night. Thinking of where I'd be going at night. Spent the day feeling, funny and anxious. The day before Thanksgiving. The restaurant was kinda packed. Yeah. I was busy running in and out, spinning around - working. Focus, Chi, focus. (Why) should I care. THE MONEY IS IMPORTANT!

My roomates left me alone in the apartment. Off they went - Florida and NY. All by myself...in the apartment. I didn't sleep that night. Wasn't at my apartment. Off to a friend's place. (Why) should I care. BEING AT THE MOMENT!

It was snowing! What a wonderful moment! It's unusual to have snow in November. Come on, it's still fall/autumn. But I've always love snow. Yes! Hahaha...I was smiling happily walking home in the snow. (Why) should I care. NEED TO CELEBRATE THE EARLY SNOW!

Haikus of the night

You are so damn sweet
Coming fetching and talking
Driving in the snow

What you think about
Snowing, darkness of the night
Oh boy, what a sight

Hands on piano
Moonlight represents my heart
Song I played for you

Watching you watch me
Oh boy I love that song too!
Oh I love it too

Maybe I should stop
Should keep my hands to myself
Let's do something else

Let's turn off the light
Oh what a boring movie
Talking through the night

Sleepless night I/we had
Not with body next to me
Feel the warmth, my dear(?)

See something in dream
Going back in memory
Very astonished

Tell a dream I dreamed
Feeling stroking and touching
Getting weird response

A flood you may call
Alarm is ringing loudly
Get your ass up, chi

Again you're so sweet
Fetching me to Potomac
Thanks, will make it up.

Thursday

Happy Thanksgiving! It's Thursday and...(why) should I care. I was ermmm...bad. I broke a wine glass. :P I made a very sexy dessert - strawberries cut purposely (or not!) in a shape of vagina and nicely decorated in a snow white plate (thanks, cousin MW for the trouble of finding the plate I prefer as a nice 'bed' for my errrmmmm...dessert). He then pour some white stuff - some kinda unsweetened milk over those berries! Oooohh boy, great. It tasted very weird. But I swallowed the ehem...berries and white stuff anyway. LOL. (Why) should I care. YOU DO KNOW THAT STRAWBERRY MAKES ONE HORNY!

Friday

Slept for just 1++ hour. Crazy friend, A, called just 1+ hour after I fell into sweet dreams. URGH! Made me awake after that til it's no point going back to sleep - have to get up, leave the house, send my aunt to the airport, go shopping (YAY!) with cousin MW. (Why) should I care. IT'S THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY!

Went to an outlet mall, Arundel Mills - a big 'spread-out' (everything in ground floor, literally) mall. Oh boy, look at the discounts! It felt bad not to buy. So I (and MW) shopped til we dropped. :P I've neva felt so good...you know, the feeling of shopping...buying like crazy...everything seemed like a necessity. :P I ended up with a very nice (Matrix-like, something to keep me warm and still look great) jacket/coat/outer-wear and a black turtle neck from Benetton; 4 small tees from Guess; and a nice reversible top from Dana Buchman at Saks off 5th Avenue. I saw a very nice (half price!) leather jacket from Calvin Klein! MW made me terribly guilty at the thought of buying it. Soooo...I tried it on...felt how soft the leather was on me...how hip and COOL and butch I looked in front of the mirror! and I put it back. :( (Why) should I care. KEEP THE MONEY FOR RAINY DAYS.

I've been bad lately. (Why) should I care. SUE, SPANK ME, WHIP ME! ;P
