of real bad b- grade films

she made the horrendous mistake of choosing tenacious d over happy feet last evening (didn't have any other options cos its between some weird chinese film and some horror thingy at century square). it's like some very very bad remake of ken russell's tommy. ok, she's just totally insulting ken russell with this comparison now.

ah well. you need the real bad ones to make the average b grades stand out i suppose.

yuck!

revenge of the tonsils

she's got the inflamed tonsils AGAIN. probably infected from the lymph nodes virus and consecutive days of eating krema's well toasted sandwiches and super spicy chilli beef soup, hot crispy pizzas, dry cereal and black coffee.

it fucking hurts to even take a sip of water. all she wants to do now is lock herself up in the room with good irish coffee, discovery and not talk at all, hug her pillow and snuggle under the covers and tell herself the flaming throat and stiff neck is going to be ok very soon.

she needs antibiotics...like now.

btw, daniel craig does grow on you, or perhaps he's special cos he speaks to the growing society of disillusioned women.

about the swollen lymph node (again!)

had the biopsy done last friday morning. though it was a fast and simple surgery where she got knocked out by general anaesthetic, the whole idea of incisions, operating theatres and surgeons in scrubs doesn't sit well. the last thing on her mind before spiralling into unconsciousness was asking the big guy up there to "keep her safe". woke up in a coughing fit and it took some time for the nausea to go down before swallowing some tasteless tuna sandwich. she couldn't turn the head freely and suffered the stiff neck syndrome for the past three days, yuck. thank goodness the surgery tape came off today.

cryptic quote of the day..."she got kimchi disease from too much hokeypokey sushi"

funny conversations she had this morning:

writer 1: nah, not shortlisted.

b: are you going?
writer 2: Is it tonight??I'll GO!!Who wanna join me? I am now an expert at gatecrashing since 2002 which was last year I actually had a ticket! Come, lets go free makan and make contacts. Bring your resumes!

b: are you going:
art director: of cos! i want to check out the food, it's ritz carlton you know.

b: are you going?
suit 1: babe, check this out. my boss asked and they only give tics to the creatives.

b: are you going?
suit 2: limited tables this year so only creatives are going.

b: are you going?
suit 3: maybe crash the post party later (now that's a perfect answer!)
