More public transport weirdos......and mishaps

Sigh.... does this never end??
On the way home the other day, after meeting that weirdo in the previous post.....I bumped into him AGAIN at Central. OMG. He said hi to me. so I just said hi back and walked away really quickly and took out my phone and called my good fren RY and said really loudly "HI Honey!"
sheeesh. talk about a curse... coz i would never call it fate....ewwww

Then later that night, on the way home from Blockbuster with my flatmate, she wanted to rent some horror movie, I was so distracted by the new movie poster on the side of the building....I totally walked into the POLE!!! AGAIN!!! Damnit!! This is like the 3 time that's happened to me. waaaaah, once was inside a train station... then other night was at a convenient store, i was distracted by the drinks selection in the fridge and now this.. man PPL NEED TO STOP PUTTING POLES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SPACE!!! So now i got this bump underneath my ear...waaaah. it was soooo painful, I totally wanted to cry....SK's right, I need to have that healing power like the little cheerleader in the new series Heros.

Then today, walking past another train station, this young boy behind me walked up to me and said hi. so i returned the greeting...(perhaps i haven't learnt my lesson yet about talking to strangers.....but i just dont want to be rude) He was really polite, and asked if he could asked me out on a date.....(wha da???) so i told him i already got a man....dear dear... He then asked for my age... asked him to guess and he thinks i'm like 19-20....Bless you child! for thinking i'm so young! hahahaha...so i figured i'm waaaay older than him and he tolded me he's actually from the country and ppl in syd seems rather cold they don't talk much.... but i wanted to point out to him. people dont talk much to strangers near redfern.....

TOO Close Encounter

Was running a bit late for work this morning and power walked through the tunnel at central and keep hitting this guy walking beside with my swinging arms. oops. finally made it to the escalators when i realised i just missed my train grrrr..... so i just rode down the escalator slowly to catch my breath, when my guy i kept on hitting before appeared right beside me ...

Stranger " Man, never seen someone walked so fast in the tunnel before."
Me "Yeah I was running late but then still missed my train"
Stranger "I'm XXX"
Me "uh.. ok... nice to meet you" (but thinking FREAK)
XXX" so where you work?" blah blah blah

Once we're on the platform I ran away and went to my side since he's going on the opposite direction, but he found me and tried to talk to me until my next train comes

XXX "so how old are you? you Single? Married?"
Me thinking (gosh PLEASE leave me alone... Where is my F^&#ing train??? aaaargh)

XXX " I must say you got the Hottest Body"
Me thinking (Please get me outta here!)

And FINALLY my train arrives so i turn to his weirdo and tells him bye ethusaistically! (So glad to be getting rid of him, but perhaps he misunderstood my ethusiaism) coz he totally leaned in to kiss me goodbye on the cheek what da!!! I met him all of 2 mins!!! and He put his hand on my bum gawd.... I so wanted to slap him, but wanted to get as far away from him as possible even more and just dashed into my train......

SK thinks I attract all these weirdos ( inclusive of previous post mentioned) due to the way i dress for work. but I can say proudly it's NOT what i'm wearing!!! There's just too many freaks out there who likes to pick up chicks near public transport!

I've been asked out for drinks at other train stations before and someone offered to cook me dinner on a bus going home once....Public Transport is NOT a good pickup venue!!!!

Friendly Waiter

Went to Machiaato in the city for dinner the other night with my fren LL and her sister-in-law, the waiter there was super friendly and attentive all night, i just figured he was after a big tip... but then after we finished our meal and he's been talking to us for a bit, he offered to buy us a round of coffee... that seems a bit unusual....and my friend was like "Sis, he's totally hitting on you!" uh...really? *Shrug* but then it became very obvious even to someone as oblivious as myself when he later gave me this business card of this other cafe he's at, with this cell number on the back on it...hmmmm....the cards in my wallet at the moment....but one thing I gotta mention, the lamb shanks there are "To die for!!!" hmmm... the meat was sooo tender it fell off the bone as soon as you touched it and the sauce complemented so well. I'd definately go back there again, only this time we'll choose a table at least 5m away from the speakers of the live jazz player.

Afterwards, a the bus stop waiting for my bus to go home, some indian guy came up and said hi to me. so i said hi back...then he said "Are you Yuki?" huh??? wha da?? me: no.....
So apparently this guy has an internet blind date set up to meet at the time i was waiting for my bus at the spot where I was, only thing was the girl never sent him a photo of herself, nor described what she was going to wear nor gave him her contact number...she only said "you'll know it's me when you see me." Talk about lame. i'm 99% sure she stood him up (If his story is even true), i didn't get to find out more about this as my bus approached and finally I went home....

Correction

My bad, just checked on IMDB, Jennifer Hudson was not in last year's American Idol, but the 2004 series. Same year as Fantasia and Latoya London... can you imagine that little Hawiian girl made it further in the comp than her? Guess just like in the movies, audience prefer what's more pleasing to the eye than actual vocal talents.

Speaking of American Idol, what's up with this year's comp??? How can they vote out Paris? That girl was Da Bomb. though her speaking voice leaves much to desire, but I suppose that just adds character and make her more memorable.

I'm a reality talent show junkie...not so much the Survivor, Bachelor, Big Fat Loser or Big Brother Fan (in fact HATE BB...uuuugh) but loved the whole So You Think You can Dance, It takes Two, Idol, (not so much the dancing with the stars or the ewwww Skating with the stars- LAME)...

Dreamgirls

I loooved this movie... can't wait to get the soundtrack and own a copy of the movie.... i can see why it won 3 Golden Globes. Totally shoulda won more. The main draw to it was Jennifer Hudson, she had such an amazing and powerful voice... how did that little blonde twit beat her at idol last year? coz Jennifer's a "real" woman with curves? Her voice even outshone Beyonce's (though that might have been done purposely in the movie...oops did i give away the plot?, but you know it was based on the Supremes and Diana Ross already...)

There's a new movie coming out on Valentine's day that I'm hoping to see with my hunnie. it looks sooo cute.. can't recall the name but it starrs Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. i adore Drew, and Hugh's always a laugh. I even liked the American Dreams movie....ok ok i admit i like singing and dancing movies...and then there's this other one coming out about a bunch of little kids dancing.. think it was a british film. it was like a mockumentry...it was ballet instead of ballroom like "Mad Hot Ballroom". That's highly recommended as well, if you liked "Spellbound" or "Take the lead" since it was kinda a mixure of both.

so the best movies i've seen since 2006: Little Miss Sunshine, Thank you for Smoking, Dreamgirls!, Casino Royale, Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead Man's chest.

Other very enjoyable movies I've seen: A Night at the Museum, Marie Antonette, Take the Lead, Mad Hot Ballroom (rented on DVD), Hoodwinked, Over the Hedge, Children of Men, Capote, Shortbus

Yeah I really like to watch movies... I remember in my other job interview, they asked me what do i like to do on weekends.. I told them I liked watching movies... but they said "everyone" says that....though I know, not everyone mean it the way I do.. haha.. well at least now i can say I like to Salsa, cook up a store, hang out at the beach (they all sound better than shopping!)

Midnite Musings

Woo Hoo *bust out da champagne* my first blog.....
Even though I'm really glad I got my first job....the thing is... it's really REALLY boring. half the time I got Sh$T all to do...and then they "monitor" the internet access at work. recording the date and where you visited online so totally can't surf freely. not like i'm looking up porn or anything illegal but they're so strict at work, not sure if they'd appreciate me checking my hi5 profile and reading up on my friend's blog.

I must admit this is way better than Xanga, coz i'm so technically challenged online. lol.
I was looking forward to changing my blog address to piggiepoo, but just checked awhile ago. think that addy already belong to a 15 yrs old singaporean chickadee. She was rambling on some silly thing like...oh i dont wanna be in band class anymore. and i got my friend to do my powerpoint for me... lawds... did we all talk like that when we were 15?

You ever read back your old diary entries and then have a "OMG...I was like this? What was I thinking" moment.... you look back and think wow...I'm so mature now (rather than ewww I was soooo immature) hahah.

But then you reach the part where you're gushing on and on about your first love... your one true love... your soul mate...and just wonder how can you ever love someone so deeply and yet it didn't work out...can't everyone see you're destined to be together....."the one you can never forget" *sigh* and even though you can see now how the relationship is doomed. you were too different, with regards to your dreams and goals, the way you think, your attitude towards a variety of things. It never would have worked... but yet, you're still thinking "what if....."
