and in true blogger style, albeit synonymous with BOOORING and LAAAME, i shall tell the whole blogging world of..... my day!

WOOHOO, CHEERS AND WONDERMENT BEFALL THE ONLINE COMMUNITY.

today i woke up.

amazing, isn't it? how did god create humans and program them so intricately to do such things in the mornings!

what's more astonishing is that i woke up at 10.30am.

the perfect timing! the breathtaking precision! 10.30 on the dot, not one minute more or less! exactly! oh the wonders i wake up to every morning, inspiring me to such an extent.

then i went out for lunch. for FISH BEE HOON, can you imagine that!? FISH! with NOODLES! in a SOUP! pure brilliance is it not?!

then i went to borders! such miracles i encounter one after the other, it must be symbolic of a stupefying day!

and discovered borders has a storewide, i repeat in capital letters, STOREWIDE discount of a grand total of 20%!! sensational! fabulous!

and so... i BOUGHT books! from borders! at a discount! can you not comprehend the stunning miracles i am experiencing!?

but then i came home. and it rained. well not really, it drizzled. but it sure as hell is gonna rain up a storm later. judging by the sounds of thunder coming over the hill. well there isn't a hill nearby really, just a figure of speech. 'coming over the neighbour's roof' or 'coming over the garden fence' don't quite have that special ring to them.

and then i started blogging. and listening to music. to be specific, as my GP teacher dutifully imprinted on my mind to do so when writing, Smoke On The Water by Deep Purple, and a touch of Jay Chou.

and i ate a few slices of watermelon. and several almonds, walnuts and pecans. possibly a handful of pistachios too. which i bought from Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne. several days before coming home, as a gift to my relatives as well as for the joint.

did i mention that i had such a bleedingly horrible experience trying to pack my room up into several cardboard boxes before coming home? i spent eons working on it, developed a backache, went into occasional fits of panic and berated innocent civilians who stood in my way. and did i mention that in the Melb airport i had an encounter (YES, a first-hand encounter) with a jackass? hoho, as sure as the steam on a fresh hot pile of crap rises to the high heavens did i meet a great big jackass. this jackass, dressed in a suit and with make-up on, informed me that my baggage was overweight, and no, i'll need to prove my ticket was a student ticket and that i had to take my student card out from my luggage. sorry it's the only way, i'll need to repackage my luggages as well, would i like a plastic bag to remove some items. yes i'll have to throw stuff away if i have to.

what an encounter. with a real jackass, true breed if i may speculate, possibly descended from a long line of jackasses, a real pedigree. not like one of the many mutts, jillasses or jackmules as they are commonly termed.

but anyway, it's dinner time and i've got to scoot.
