ok i wish i were more of a girl and DIDN'T find techstuff as alluring as shoes and bags! becausseeee now i have to put the bang&olufsen earphones on my wishlist! they're so.damn.cool. sigh i'd seen them a few weeks ago when my mom brought back the b&0 catalog, but then i just thought it was a waste of money but then mark. damnn mark. had to buy them and let me try them and now i love them!

see i have all the female instincts to buy makeup and earrings, but i also have all the male instinct to buy phones, cars, headphones, speakers, plasma tvs, computers, and i can appreciate the beautiful football boot.

(the nike 90 boots are really gorgeous by the way, especially in chrome and maroon. damn my brother of the too-small feet who cannot find his size despite trawling about 15 stores. i think i saw a shoe bag on the rugby table today, with those boots in gold and white. but the gold's a bit too gaudy.)

ugh so everyone's getting afflicted with the headaches as a result of the disgusting sun. it's kindof pretty in the morning when you're going down lornie road and it's in front and all orangey but by midmorning it just gets to be a real pain. and it lasts through past 6. it should really just let up already. or they should build weather domes in singapore, an idea i just smsed soph. maybe then we could ski in singapore. though that would also have to include a mountain. hmm maybe just snowmen. although i imagine if they did build a weather they'd just make it nice english-summer weather.) but the very thought of being in singapore in may or something and saying "hey let's go skiing!" gives me the giggles so i'll keep it -- happy thought for crappy day.

though the banner-painting was fun. i am very proud of my sunset mask =)

hmm i have been struck with a sudden longing for lena olin. on alias, i mean. not longing for her like... longing. you know what i mean.
because i was just listening to As Time Goes By and thinking of Casablanca and Ingrid Bergman and that led to thoughts of Isabella Rossellini who's Ingrid Bergman's daughter there fore half-swedish and half-italian and an amazing actress and she played Irina's sister on Alias. And that got me thinking, the casting department is really fantastic, lena olin who's swedish and isabella rossellini who's half-swedish. both incredibly beautiful and fascinating. and i loveee lena olin and i hopehopehope the rumours are true that she might be back for an episode!
