A Day Out Alone

It's been quite some time (again) since i last blogged. *Sigh*.. i guess my lazy bones are up around me again. I haven't even studied for these couple of days.

*Slaps on the head*!

Well, for the past week, it passed like it didn't! Maybe that's because i've not done anything fruitful. Nothing!! I was like.. "Hey, another day's gone. Don't worry, tomorrow will come". And there goes my week.

To top it all, my mid-term's next week!! I'm not even half into my books. I know nuts about Mass Comm. And E-Pub, all i know are those html codes which i can remember a bit from CPS. Html are not even in the mid-term! *sobs* I really gotta buck up for these few more days, if i really wanna get a decent result for my mid-term.

Yesterday, was in a way kinda fruitful i would say. I was suppposed to go out with Ken, JingWen and YenLi to Midvalley to buy some stuff. But then, things got a little different from the original plan. I did go to Midvalley, but i went alone. Didn't know why, i just wanted to go alone. So, i left at a different time from them, saying that i'll meet up with them there. I went to Midvalley, with the heart to walk around alone. Maybe i just wanted to try what ALONE meant. When i first arrived there, i went straight to the ATM. I was down right broke at that time. Have you ever seen a guy go to Midvalley with just RM6 in the wallet? Yup, that's me *smiles and nods*.

And talk aboout ATMs.. *dang*! Forget about the long queues, after almost 20 minutes of queuing, the ATM have to show this. "This machine is now currently out of cash. The choice (1) Withdrawal will be unavailable. Sorry for the inconvenience caused."
It was 3 something in the afternoon at that time. And i haven't even eaten my breakfast yet!! What the heck am i gonna eat with 6 bloody bucks~?? So, i had to walk all the way to Ken to get 100 bucks, which luckily he got at the moment. It felt much safer with a hundred bucks in my wallet. I guess that just the nature of things these days. You won't feel safe if you had only 1 dollar and you won't feel any safer with 10,000. Weird huh?

So, with 100 bucks, i was determined to get myself some food. Some good ones at that! But everywhere was packed, every food outlet had to queue up just to get in. In the end, i got into Sushi King. It's easier to find a place, cause i went alone. And then, i ate to my heart's content!! Which resulted in a 43 dollar bill. Yeap, i ate all 40 something dollars alone. In Sushi King! Imagine how much i ate!!

After that, i went for a movie - "War Of The Worlds". After lotsa bad comments about the show from my friends, i took the time to see it for myself. It wasn't as bad as they said, it's just that the ending was kinda abrupt. Exactly like what my cousin said about the movie, "don't expect too much from it". Luckily i didn't. Its not what i anticipated of it. Nothing near "Independence Day" (i liked that show, OK?) and it was kinda like "The Day After Tomorrow". A few of the visual effects were "wow" and the rest.. nothing much. Almost all the somethings-gotta-blow-up-the-world kinda movie got these visual effects, so its not something special. I would give it a 6/10.

After the movie, i walked around feeling the complete freedom of not rushing to somewhere else and not following anyone. I can go anywhere i want. Anytime. Though it looked kinda stupid (to me, at first) to be walking around alone, watching a movie alone and eating alone, it still felt good. And then i just realized, "Who the hell cares if you're walking around alone. You don't even think twice when you see another guy who's doing the same thing." *SMILES* - the joy of realization.

I head on back to SS2 - Murni for a drink. And i bumped into Melvin and his roommate, Xen (i'm not sure how to spell it, it's pronounced that way). We got to talking and they asked me whether i wanted to follow them to Atmos later. I had nothing to do, so.. "Yeah, why not." A friend came to pick us up at Melvin's place. And so i head on to Atmos. I gotta tell ya'll, that place was filled with babes man! A lot of them. With the capital letters, A LOT. Did nothing much in there. Was just looking around, drank a bit and admired (and envied) the way they shuffled inside. But i did go round the dance floor to move a bit. So, after loads of sweating and dancing, we headed back around 3. And i reached home around 4. Took a bath and went straight to sleep. Day's over.

Well, come to think about it, fruitful might not be the word to use for a day such as this. It was kinda money and time wasting, but, i had my fun. And i don't do this often, so its ok. *pats myself on the back* . It's OKAY~ (reassuring myself i guess).

I was alone, for most of the day. It kinda rekindles my memories of once when i was single. And i am now back to those days.. single. Its OKAY to be single. It feels free.. and alone.

*pats on the back again* Its OKAY~

  • dear anonymous,
    yes, i don't think i know loneliness like you do. because everyone has their own definition of loneliness. heartless? yes, i may be. and anonymous, i might have done things that i shouldn't have. decisions that i shouldn't do. but what was it for? i did it for her. the one i loved for 3 years. she should know how i treated her. she should know whether am i heartless. she should understand why i did what i did. as no one understands me more than she does. no one.
