Lunch was fantastic today. With the guys, at Oriental Hotel Cherry Garden Restaurant. It certainly lives up to its name as a 5 star hotel. So does the price. Well I guess I won't be staying there for awhile. Not at least till I'm able to sustain a 5 figure salary. Relentless pursuit of more money seems superficial, not really the me I envisioned for the future, but if WL can do it, so should I. Not that I'm competing, but it's just waiting, right there for the taking. All that cash floating out there in cyberspace and in the market... Losers and winners... choose a side. Choose the right side.
Being at a hotel so close to the Mandarin, made me think of the Atrium... The exclusivity was gone... You had to tell your friends... Good things were meant to be shared, but I'd hoped we could've had a little more things privy to ourselves and ourselves alone. It was then that I remembered that I mattered to you. And I found solace in those words, when I realised that your laughter echoed in my memory and your smiles brought smiles to my turgid face too. Turgid.. haha, I guess I couldn't think of a better word to describe the toughness I try to put on. Silly, when I know I was never a tough guy emotionally...
Watching: Freedom Writers
It's no Dangerous Minds, but it certainly is inspiring enough. The acting's a tad bit exagerrated but I guess with 2 years to cover in 2 hours, any director would've found it difficult. The movie resent the message across my mind: Ivan, you're never in a position worse than others. There are others out there with bigger problems than your relationship woes.
Well it's true, but if you can't take care of yourself alone, you certainly aren't good enough to take care of others. Let's just focus on me for this while, focus on getting on the right bus. The right bus that'll lead to happiness. And happiness, is a pursuit that's achievable with or without you. But with you, maybe it'll be faster. Maybe it won't... Who knows.... we never got the chance.
You matter to me... you matter the most to me.
