Shoe fetish

Have resorted to labelling my shoeboxes so I can remember what shoes I have and easily find the ones I want to wear. 43 pairs at last count, not including 4 which need repair... No more shoe-buying for the rest of the year, Sunflower! >.<

I was a Boy Scout in a previous life

I am not ever going to run out of brads in my lifetime. Maybe even three lifetimes.

Embarrassing moment of the year #1

Applied for CNY leave on the wrong dates. OBVIOUSLY have been working too hard.

Whoa, kinetic memory!

Played scales this morning for probably the first time in 15 years or so. It's true what they say -- the fingers remember where to go!

Shattering preconceptions

That moment when your dad sends an SMS saying, "TQVM" and you realise that your parents are more hip and "with it" than you thought.

Impatience

Note to self: Checking email a dozen times within the span of five minutes will not make something magically appear.

Smooth, man. Real smooth.

A friendly tip to the single guys out there: If a woman tells you she's uncomfortable with your extravagant and effusive compliments because you hardly know her well enough to have been able to decide that she's all you've said she is, you are not going to endear yourself to her by saying, "I guess you are not used to people complimenting you; hence you take it the other way round."
