My Weekend

Its been a relaxing weekend, where in I got to unwind myself from my usual life chores. Now that all my other colleagues had gone back, I was left all alone to the mercy of my own boring company.
And here are a few incidents that happened over this weekend.

First it was @ the breakfast room yesterday. I had ordered for some fresh Roti's to be made for me, and while I was waiting a lady walks towards me and asks me if she was in the queue? I smiled and said "No". As she stood next to me to wait for her turn, she slowly began to lean towards me and got her head close to my ears and whispered, and I quote "I feel really happy, when I see men doing all things women ought to be doing".
I burst out laughing, she was referring to the chef who was a guy. Shows how much women hate men.

For my long stay @ the hotel, the hotel guest relationship manager sends me a Greeting Card, a box of chocolates, some cookies and one pastry with her business card saying I could contact her for any help. That sure was a nice way to make your guests special. Cheerz to Marriott.

I have to this date never shopped alone. Yesterday was my first time. And to add to my adventure I was out shopping for a ladies handbag. I almost walked around the whole mall and visited almost all stores which sold handbags. At most of the stores I got a warm welcome. May be because I was the only guy entering all these stores. I sure felt out of place at times. Then finally I got to this big branded store who had some nice collection. After spending sometime I zeroed in on two handbags. And there was a sales girl standing there, and I asked her if she had any different colors for the models I choose. She showed me all the choices I had. And in no time she realized I was confused. She then told me that there was a mirror in front and I could try how it would look.

I thought for a moment, and then didn like the idea of me standing infront of the mirror with handbags and posing. So I smiled when I got a wicked thought. I asked her if she could help me by putting on the handbags. To my relief she happily volunteered and posed for me with the different handbags. And finally on seeing me confised she herself helped me made a choice. She knew what I liked, and she said " I like this too".
My problem was solved. As she packed the bag and handed over to me, she asked me"For your girlfriend,la"?(Dont ask me what is "la". That's a common usage in Malaysia). I just smiled. She then went on to say "She is a very lucky girl".
And then out of the blue I had to say "Yes, she is! She is happily married to a smarter guy."

It took her a while to understand what I said. Then trying to change the topic, she quickly said, "You are a good guy,la"(La again!!!). "Bag for your sister?" I gave her a how do you know I have a sister kind of look. She pointed at the baby dress I was holding in my hand.( I had done some shopping for my niece.) And then she walked me to the counter, waited till I got the items billed, and then walked me out. Shopping for the first time alone was sure a memorable experience.

My life is nothing without you



As the sun begins to go down,
I settle on my bed with a mourn.
With a silence that is so coy,
I look at the dark night sky.

I saw a million beautiful stars that lit bright in the dark,
And I wondered why is my life still so dark?
I tried to clinch my eyes with my arms,
When I felt my life is in qualms.

And then I felt a star shining on me,
I open my eyes, and I see a picture of you.
The gloom around begins to drown,
When I see your pretty face brown.

I missed those days when my life was all hay,
While you were in my arms all day.
I missed those days when I was in love,
While you were the only one I truly loved.

You Again.


I saw her today, walking by the street; my eyes could not believe the treat.
My heart began to race, the moment I caught a glimpse of her face.
I heard my heart pounding; I could feel my feet thumping.
I raced against time, hoping I would catch her in time.
I reached out my arms, hoping to grab her in my arms.
I hit hard against the glass, and alas.
I realized we live in two separate worlds.

Its always you


Its one of those days again, When my heart longs in pain.
Your thoughts are never new to life, for they are ever rife.
I feel your absence in life’s every essence.
I long for your presence in every sense.
Your thoughts make my heart bloom, but your absence puts me in gloom.
I thought I would forget you one day,
but each passing day I know that day is still far away.
My life is sure mortal, but your memories in my heart, immortal.
I ll sure die one day, but my love for you will forever live this way.

Sometimes it's just not your hour

It was time for me to do some shopping for my trip, and so on my way back home yesterday I stopped over at this supermarket.
I picked a shopping basket and moved in. I was trying to reach out one particular product, and I don’t really know what went wrong, the moment I pulled out the product I was looking for, the entire stock kept at that section came crashing down on the floor in a flash. By the very look of it, I was sure the items must been stacked on the rack just a while ago, as everything was tightly crammed in the rack.
The lady at the section came running, and even before she could think of saying anything, I told her what had happened, and didn’t sound guilty about it. Of course it was not my fault. She remorsefully told me that the items had just been arranged a couple of minutes back, and all her hard work was in vain.
Now I had to put up that sorry face.
Trying not to stay around for long, I just turned around and I could hear the next set of items rolling down on the floor. Not again. This time as it was not me, it was my backpack. But the lady around was still the same. This time around to play safe, I instantly apologized to her.
She shook her head in disdain.
I quickly moved out of that section, and moved to pick some other items. I don’t know if it was that lady or the place or that hour, but something was sure jinxed. I HAD to. But luckily this time around it was not as bad as the previous two times. But I did manage to drop a few packets of coffee powder on to the floor. And as I was hoping it goes unobserved, what do I see behind me? The same lady. Even before I could say something this time, she very politely told me “Sir, Let me help you please". And after that she helped me pick the rest of the items that I wanted.


It was really not my hour. Or was it that lady at the supermarket having a bad day?
