It's too bad that Tsunami warnings are all throughout NSW beaches. They have to close it for safety purposes. I was planning on spending a good sunny Sunday on the beach.

Well, I had a great time with friends at Mardi Gras last night. Too bad we didnt get to hangout longer through the night in Oxford. But at at least we did get a nice dinner at Encasa.

The past few days had been one of the loneliest. I've been alone for most of the time. It has not been compensated with Badminton Saturdays nor with Late Night Thursdays or Cheap Tuesdays. I was just feeling a bit strange. Sometimes it would feel really strange but it happens. Maybe its a male PMS. rofl. And all I wanted is to have a chance to read a book in the beach... I guess its far-fetched idea. Oh well...

Lately, I don't eat out anymore. Simply refraining from the costly takeaways or the redundant eateries. I realised that you save more plus cooking takes away stress-related anxieties.

Simple preparation of ingredients, buying it from grocery to chopping, dicing and sauteing make me happy. If only I did this the soonest, then i could have saved heaps of money. Fortnight grocery costs are just $80 compared to $280 takeaways. This could save up to five grand a year. Whoa, that could have been spent on travels!

Hence I cooked Afritada tonight. I will enjoy it while finishing up on my McBealathon. Really sad to see it end though.

Again, I am utterly dazzled with Josh Groban's performance on Ally McBeal Season 5. I know I'm still watching it. Actually I am slowly watching every episode as it will end in a matter of few clicks.

An excerpt from the moving song that led me to tears tonight:

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday...

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave


~~~
Feeling lost. Not knowing where this life is leading
Sadness; Perhaps the gloomy sky shall cease
I am looking for something that binds me to forever's bliss.

All I can say is: how come I didn't watch this show fresh on TV?

I know its way back in college days. Probably the first few trimesters I was so enamored with full passion in accounting ("yuck!" as Nelle would put it). Or this was way back in High School, I was too busy aiming for the highest honours.

Watching it day after day and week after week, it comforts me. Knowing that I'm on strike against spending. Against pointless clubbing and drinking. I know I am guilty of complaining how boring life can get, especially when not many friends are present nowadays. Some of them living afar while others can be so distant.

[ There are friends that come and go, and you'd be surprise how vigorous they can get when they needed you. and disappear like a bubble when they don't. ]

"Helping others is never more beneficial than when it's in your own self-interest." Well thats Fishism. I agree but its horse shit.

Going back to this McBealathon. I just feel happy for Ally to be dating and ending up happy with Robert Downy, Jr. (dunno whats his screen name). But it gives me a sense of comfort that Ally is happy walking home side by side with him. This is how far I got, so not really sure if they will end up together though. If you know the answer, then just shush. :X

By the way, the music is just so fabulous. I personally hate Vonda's face but some of her songs are good, inspiring even.
