a new Grey’s Anatomy junkie

i don’t like feeling grouchy. but i hate the fact that it’s goodbye food poisoning and hello influenza. so i guess this is what all the aching soreness has been leading up to.it’s supposed to be the happy holidays. it’s not that i’m indisposed exactly. but i’ve been totally a couch potato last couple of days just trying to recover and deal with the temporary shutdown of my immune system.

i knew something was wrong the day i woke up with a freaking sore throat. it just felt scrapped raw and then there was the blocked nose which drives me crazy. for bed rest, i’ve tried sleeping earlier at midnight instead of the typical 2am. but i realized my sleep cycle doesn’t change much. i sleep early, i wake up earlier. damn it.

well, i haven’t been online in a couple of days. i say, thank god for Christmas. my emails are not piling up at an abominable rate, which i can deal with.  i’ve been busy re-watching Frog Prince and now, Grey’s Anatomy. i am so freaking addicted and attached. zomgwtfbbq. xD

went shopping with my family yesterday on Christmas eve. i had Times book store vouchers and i wanted to buy books. which i actually do hope i’ll find time to read. o_O haha! i got Chris Anderson’s The Long Tail as per Dr G.’s recommendation, and the last Harry Potter book (which i haven’t read because i hate the hype) and some classics including a Haruki Murakami. score! and i have some vouchers leftover to be used by next April. so yay, the happiest thing – i have new books! (:

i also took advantage of the Christmas sale at Cotton On. god, their sale is really worth fighting for and all that long queuing time for their fitting rooms. i got a pair of grey shorts at a total steal of 10 bucks, and some other tops. i adore their bargain rack, which actually have wearable clothes, and not the super off-season grandma-closet type.

omg, Lolly Rouge’s new collection rocks too. i want like every single piece in that entry. damn it (again!).

i think if i feel much (much much) better tomorrow, i might go out to town tomorrow since Kazzie has plans anyway. get some fresh air, and walk some. got to get clothes for Chinese New Year’s. because all the clothes i’ve got so far are really for next semester than to stay kept until February. got to spend some time on school stuff too, reminder to self. Paparazzi business meeting on the 27th.

so, last night was Grandma’s birthday dinner! it was fun and good food. the cake was so-so though. should have left it up to me. i love family gatherings. especially if we’re talking bridge. i don’t fancy mahjong very much though.

another thing that was totally insane but rocked my world yesterday. Shaun’s texted me a couple of times ever since he left for Tokyo. but last afternoon i got a call from him that made me hyperventilate. why? because he was at the freaking concert live venue or some place close. the concert was held at the bloody TOKYO DOME, for god’s sake! and he was a-looking at all the LUNA SEA merchandise being sold. … but he was good enough to call and asked me what i wanted to get. ZOMG if i can’t be there, i definitely want something for memory’s sake anyway.

… weird, am i still very much the Japanese rock fan i am, or am i just sentimental? but it’s LUNA SEA, so it’s totally understandable, really. anyhow! LUNA SEA reunion concert on Christmas eve! god, how can i ever miss something like that? i haven’t really gotten over it since Shaun told me he (finally, luckily) got tickets to the concert from an auction. and they weren’t exactly exorbitant. oh yes, i am apple green with envy. but he also called a couple of times again last night and tried to let me listen to LUNA SEA … LIVE. T_T omg, i heard i heard! i heard Ryuichi and all the marvelous guitar action, but it was still really mostly noise. but apparently it was ‘Rosier’ i was hearing. … god, adrenaline rush just from thinking about it.

arrr, i feel pathetic. i’m Wiking Grey’s Anatomy when i really read its plot breakdown a few weeks back already. of course, that’s because i became a total junkie, so i can be forgiven. but why am i spoiling myself like this? o_O
