just as i was enjoying my kitchen cabinet shopping, it had to be spoiled by my boss sending me an sms asking whether am i back coz she wants to discuss details about the press conference this friday. why can i not be left alone when i'm on leave???!! do i have to REALLY sort to switching off my phone? mood was just totally killed but went on shopping for my cabinet and shelf. gosh! thinking about my purchase again, think i splurged a bit too much for a cabinet and shelf....and not forgetting contradicting myself of not going to get anything from IKEA but just idea...looks like temptation overpowered me. oh well, what's been bought has been bought. so excited about it that i was feeling pretty gung ho in wanting to head back home straight and set it up immediately. got to put plans of some lighting aside...maybe next month...and this time i'm going to try and be strong with my stand of not having to resort to IKEA for the lights!! *fingers cross*
went back to office and what a waste of time it was. basically all those things that was supposed to be discussed have already been looked into and ironed out. *sigh* left the office around 7 something and went for dinner with cavin. best joke was we were really clueless about where should we go for dinner. made a few calls to try to get more company but ended up only 2 ma lat lous..."just the 2 of us". initially there was supposed to be plans of having dinner with serene, but then...yes yes...serene, if you're reading this, I AM SORRY. didn't mean to cancel plans. my intentions were just to inquire whether you'd be interested to join my colleagues for dinner. that's all. okok....I HAVE NO LIFE!!! :-(
finally watched "Remember The Titans" few days ago. quite an interesting angle of how racism affected kids in those days and what got them to accept each other as well as the community.
Coach Boone: We will be perfect in every aspect of the game. You drop a pass, you run a mile. You miss a blocking assignment, you run a mile. You fumble the football, and i will break my foot off in your John Brown hind parts and then you will run a mile. Perfection. Let's go to work.
Coach Boone: This is where they fought the battle of Gettysburg. Fifty thousand men died right here on this field, fighting the same fight that we are still fighting among ourselves today. This green field right here, painted red, bubblin' with the blood of young boys. Smoke and hot lead pouring right through their bodies. Listen to their souls, men. I killed my brother with malice in my heart. Hatred destroyed my family. You listen, and you take a lesson from the dead. If we don't come together right now on this hallowed ground, we too will be destroyed, just like they were. I don't care if you like each other of not, but you will respect each other. And maybe... I don't know, maybe we'll learn to play this game like men.
Coach Boone: I'm not gonna talk to you tonight about winnin' and losin'. You're already winners 'cause you didn't kill each other up at camp.
Coach Boone: You look like a bunch of fifth grade sissies after a cat fight! You got anger, that's good you're gonna need it, you got aggression that's even better you're gonna need that, too. But any little two year old child can throw a fit! Football is about controlling that anger, harnessing that aggression into a team effort to achieve perfection!
