I am rather random these days.
I think it's because of the fact that CNY is getting nearer and that means HOLIDAYS!!!
Every single moment of a holiday is very precious.
Hence, the feeling of BLISS and with bliss, comes along RANDOMITY.
Today, my feet were completely BLISTERED.
Seriously.
The new pair of shoes is nice [I like it very much] but very painful.
Why do we always have to pay for the price of beauty?? [and vanity. I mean, look at NP - for the price of vanity Chauntecleer got doped and Pertelote got roasted alive.]
I can hardly walk.
It is such a relieve to find a chair to sit down and forget the pain in my feet.
But when I have to get up to walk, [especially with the shoes on] it is hell to pay.
I walked like some spasticated girl who has metal for legs.
I'm going to wear shoes tomorrow. Proper ones that won't give me pain until these blisters are healed. [Then I'll continue wearing the peep-toe shoes again. Can I get any more stubborn??]

Anyway, the point of this post is to talk about this really out-of-the-blue thing I did.
During Law, I decided to accompany Christine to Asia for her Brunch.
My feet hurt like hell but I went. Thinking that after that the Math people will be going there too.
So after she went off, I continued sitting on the deck.
And the next thing is, this really really LOUD girl came and ask me if they can share my table. [Asia was bustling busy immediately after Christine left.]
Since the Math people won't be out until another hour's time, I agreed.
And boy, were they noisy.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I have reconciled with my CHICKENS.
I'm aspiring to finish drawing the comic from Lines 55 - 680. Call me crazy.
So I was drawing me chickens in AC.
And the next thing was, the girl who asked me if she can share the other half of my table was sitting right in front of me, eating her CHICKEN RICE.
Quite an inspiration to draw my comic.
And then later... she asked:
What are you doing?? It's really nice. Is it like your hobby or something??
Hobby?? HOBBY???
O.M.G.
It's a bloody awesome hobby yo.
Of course I politely answered that it was for Literature.
And they went oooh-ing and aah-ing.
Next, a bunch of guys came [miss talkative's classmates] and they added on to the table.
And they saw my chickens.
The guys were really friendly. They spoke to me as if we were long time friends and they complimented my drawing. Tee hee. [First time in my life because all this while my drawing sucks.]
Hmm. I guess my drawing ain't that bad after all.
Suddenly,
Miss Loud & Talkative: Hey, your name is Deborah right??
Hey!! How did she know??
I was half suspicious of her [*eyes should squint here*], wondering if she was snooping on my paper all this while while she ate her chicken rice and I drew my chickens.
And then I was told that the girl sitting beside her on the other half of the table was from my school. My junior. Carol's friend.
This world is seriously crammed. Not small. But CRAMMED.
I felt bad for the girl because I didn't quite recognise her. It must be rather embarassing for her when Ms Loud & Talkative asked my name directly.
And so, given that they are such a big bunch of people, I dumped my file over to the next table which is unoccupied.
Another ex-MGSian, another junior came and sat at that table.
Ok, I seriously don't like this junior because she thinks a hell of her piano playing when I think that her elder sister is better.
And I can't stand the fact that she loves braggin that she got 2nd for Chopin's International [Asia] Competition. And apparently, from some source of my piano teacher, she was OK only.
I politely told her that I will be occupying half of the table [because it turned out that Math people aren't coming, only Eilene.] So she budged. And I'm happy.
And I packed my stuff and hopped over.
Then, the wonderful Eilene came and announced that we were walking to the DVD store.
So I gave up both tables. And I told Ms Professional Bragger that she can have the table.
She was surprisingly so excited to tell her friends that I'm from her school. I mean, hello?? I thought you hated me?? Probably it was just me who intimidated her while I was still in school. Haha. I tell you, my reputation in school is really a mixture of good and bad.
And I said goodbye to Ms Loud & Talkative and her gang. And I finally remembered that junior on that table. She's the quiet one who was always observing my crazy convos with Carol.
She beamed when I told her I recognised her.
Funny huh?? Made friends randomly during lunch time.
Honestly, I hope that I can sit with them and chat again. It was rather nice. I've never met such friendly people who will open up so easily. Plus, it was fun listening to them. Ok, EAVESDROPPING to be exact.

And the Ms Eilene lost her handphone. And freaking out, she used Su Wei's phone to call me.
I was wondering why should Su Wei have a reason to call me??
And I heard Eilene's frantic voice, asking me for help to find her phone. It was 2.20 pm. She was already in the bus.
And so, I had to walk to 3.19 in my geniusly blistered feet. I was half cringing and cursing while I walked.
And the phone was not there. Thank God I told Eilene to ask Noel to check LT8 since his class is immediately after our Econs class.
Then Cindy came and we went to Little Taiwan to eat. The Beef Noodle wasn't bad. Other than that, DO NOT TOUCH.
And Noel called to ask me where I was and to offer help [such a sweet chap]. I felt bad because I was supposed to be looking for Eilene's phone but here am I eating my lunch.
He was so kind to walk to the lost & found centre to enquire for Eilene's phone. [It was 2.59pm already] Tick-tock-tick-tock. We need to race against time.
What kept my spirits positive was the fact that there was still a dial-tone when I called Eilene's phone.
And the last resort: Walk to the DVD store.
It was hell walking there. But it was worth it.
The phone was there.
Thank God the fella kept Eilene's phone for her. If a customer were to have walked in and take the phone before that fella does, we'll have a sobbing Eilene tomorrow.
And that's the good thing about making friends. No matter who they are. [Ok, although my primary aim of making friends with them is so that I get special treatment for my DVDs and all, it was still a friendship]
Today is a series of random stuff. Except for the blistered feet of course. If that were to be random, then I don't know what to do. I surely do not want blistered feet randomly.
But it was a good day. Painful but eventful and great.
I'm off now.
Toodles!!!
p/s: My mommy bought tau foo fah today. *BIG GRIN*
