lovin' & livin'.

I'm rather amused at the way people behave at a concert.

was at Victoria for a friend's band performance, and got myself and Em nice seats right next to the aisle. so this pretty teenage girl comes by, and waddles in with the rest of her friends to sit with us. everything's fine, that is, until the show begins. once the lights dimmed, ah-girl promptly removed her shoes, crossed her feet on the seat and slumped into her couch! well, that isn't enough to cause an uproar, but ah-girl proves she can do better. she rummages through her little bag, and takes out a bag of orange peel and begins munching!

I was mortified.

and just as I thought her supply of dead citrus skin would run dry after intermission, noooooooooo. ah-girl takes out a fresh pack of dead skin and continues to satisfy her chops!

to make things worse, this other girl in front of us was nodding off to the rhythm of the music pieces! when the wind instruments are being played, she visits Alice in Wonderland, and when the trumpets blare, she awakes with a start and claps heartily as if she has just been through a live rendition of the Three Tenors.

in the end, I managed to laugh it off, so I'm better now.

I'm real proud of Henry, I think all of you did a great job. and thanks to Em for the company. Carl's Jr., for the hundredth time, has admittedly been too big for my mouth.

it was quite a night with Poh too. thanks!

have had a whale of a time celebrating my 20th ever since last week, and I'm extremely grateful and thankful for all the well-wishes and gifts. thanks so very much, to one and all. a marvellous time it has been, and the magic hasn't stopped working.

well well, off to snooze before seeing the big ape tomorrow. naomi watts!
