...ABOUT


Love Purple!

I Sit And Look Out
Walt Whitman.

I sit and look out upon all the sorrows of the world, and upon all oppression and shame;
I hear secret convulsive sobs from young men, at anguish with themselves, remorseful after deeds done;
I see, in low life, the mother misused by her children, dying, neglected, gaunt, desperate;
I see the wife misused by her husband--I see the treacherous seducer of young women;
I mark the ranklings of jealousy and unrequited love, attempted to be hid--I see these sights on the earth;
I see the workings of battle, pestilence, tyranny--I see martyrs and prisoners;
I observe a famine at sea--I observe the sailors casting lots who shall be kill'd, to preserve the lives of the rest;
I observe the slights and degradations cast by arrogant persons upon laborers, the poor, and upon negroes, and the like;
All these--All the meanness and agony without end, I sitting, look out upon,
See, hear, and am silent.

      Thursday, November 27, 2008

      I've started internship at Blugrapes Pte Ltd, a marketing consultancy firm. Actually, it's probably more like a part-time job since I only work from Mon-Thu (have to teach piano on Fri!). Work's fine so far, still adapting to the ice-box of a office and feeling my way about to get a hang of the company and its work. Oh, and it's really near Linda's workplace, so I get to meet her for lunch!

      Anyway, I guess work is a great way to keep myself occupied and actually do something meaningful, instead of just rotting away, feeling miserable and all. When I have things to do, especially when it involves semi-stable working hours, I once again feel in control of my whole life. Just feels so neat to always have something to do at certain times, however much of a boring routine it may be. 


      I don't understand myself sometimes. I like flexibility, but I also need routine. I couldn't stand it if my boss expected me to plant my butt on a chair (the office chair is so comfy that I feel like stealing one back) every second I am in the office and do nothing but work. I like to have the option of going out for a short walk or take a break when I really need one. I'd probably be really pleased if I can watch TV during my break (haha). BUT I also CRAVE routine. I want to know I have to be somewhere, doing something, at certain times of the day, without fail. It just makes me feel safer, like I wouldn't screw up somewhere along the way. I guess, even if I took breaks, I'd probably end up taking them at fixed timings. 

      I am very weird. And I am beginning to understand why Kim likes Bree. She is so... perfectly organized, always calm, forever in control of things. So... cool, and full of grace even in the worst situations. And she speaks in such a perfect way.  So clean, so tidy. She is Madam Perfect! 

      Me? I'm a Bree wannabe. Little Miss Perfect Wannabe. haha. I always SWEAR I'd keep my room clean and tidy, but never fail to abuse it. And about once in 2-3 weeks, I go, 'OH SHIT. I have lost control of my room once again and I cannot stand looking at it in this state another second' and go on a massive spring cleaning to put everything in order. Yesterday, I was seriously anal-ing over my room and I think Boon Hui was so amused staring at me. 

      By the way, I didn't swear to keep the room perfect again because I know myself. I am not Bree, I am only Bree once in 2-3 weeks. 

      Anyway, I am looking for a partner. To be precise, a RUNNING PARTNER. 
      Criteria: 
      -Can run 5km in <30minutes>
      -Can run non-stop for at least 12km 
      -Ideally lives in PGP, Thomson, or willing to relocate 
      -Willing to run practically everyday.
      -Able to drag me to run on my 'Today, exercise is my enemy days' (Yes, I DO get those days. I have a love-hate relationship with exercise). 

      Send in resumes right here, on my tagboard. 

      I decided to push myself a bit while running. While running with Boon Hui yesterday, I discovered how slack I've been. I'd go the distance, but at a pace so slow I'd probably see snails crawling by if I looked at the ground. I was almost (almost, not yet!) out of breath running with Boon. Today, I decided to time myself, and it took me nearly 27 minutes to do 1 round NUS. Not too bad, but time to get faster! 

      Since I was too lazy to run another round, I headed to the gym and then... I don't know what in the world made me decide to do a 10 minute run on the treadmill, incline =5, speed = 9.5km/hour. OMG it was the most TIRING 10 minute run EVER. I always prided myself for liking to run up slopes, but ten minutes of incline non-stop felt like forever. I think its time I do this 10 minute thing at the gym now and then, good training for endurance! 

      Today was one of those the-longer-i-am-in-the-gym, the-more-i-want-to-stay days. After treadmill, I decided to lift a bit of weights, despite having already worked out in the morning. And seriously, I just wished I could go on and on, and work out til I am aching so bad I can't walk or something. But I forced myself out soon enough so that I could do work. Actually, I think this I-want-to-exercise-til-i-drop-dead syndrome comes when there's loads of work to be done. After all, exercise is more fun than the sch work and work-work waiting back in my room. 

      I make myself sound so busy, but actually, I've been playing Scrabble with Anirban (it's my favourite game, ever!) and watching Sex and the City through dinner. Speaking of Sex and the City, I LOVE charlotte.... she is so... perfect like Bree!
