was walking home earlier and the auntie who literally "lives" under my block said
" girl ah, you like pink ah. everytime i see you, you sure wear red or pink one!"
i was quite surprised that this lady actually noticed what i wear everyday. Seems like i’ve underestimated her abilities. She’s old, for one…like freaking 70 but obviously she still has very good eyesight…plus, she must be very observant.
(its either all that or i seriously have too much pink in my wardrobe, which i think so too!)
So anyway, i laughed and told her, pink is my fav color. Just like red, and purple, and orange and black and white and everything else. She laughed too. We were just laughing and smiling at each other…for a minute. Then after that, i suddenly felt awkward so i waved a byebye.
As i was walking upstairs, i started feeling very bad that i didn’t hold a longer conversation with her. It occured to me that she might be this old lady who sat under my block everyday, feeling bored and perhaps waiting for someone to initiate a conversation. I felt kinda bad for a mmt. But i didn’t do anything about it after. Guess part of me was thinking…oh, she’ll be fine, she sits there everyday anyway, and the other part wanted me to just sit down with her and talk to her more.
Hmmm.
On another note, it is my friend Ingrid’s birthday today….and tonight we shall all get drunk over endless shots of vodka and illusion. Next week would be Ain’s birthday bash too. Another night of drinks. Come to think of it, its been a while since i so-called "partied". So i guess the next couple of days would make up for all that. Just to have fun.
But first, i gotta head to work.
