It's okay boss!

Mood : bored
Music : Brick by Boring Brick by Paramore

i had to fire my 'car-wash-guy' yesterday. there's this guy who goes around with his bicycle around the car park where i work offering his car washing services to anyone who'd want it. maybe 'fire' is the wrong word to use. my new job is bringing me to a new place so obviously i can't use his services anymore.

the way he managed to convince me to take him on in the first place is a story on its own. he came up to me around half a year ago asking if he could wash my car for me and begged me to let him since he wasn't getting much business.

i initally said i'll think about (fully intending to say no eventually) and the very same day when i come back to my car, i found it washed. and then two days later he did it again... and then again. by the third time i felt so bad for the fella i paid him and he's been washing my car ever since.

not too shabby selling skills by your friendly neighbourhood car wash man

go get your shovel
and we'll dig a deep hole
to bury the castle, bury the castle...

Putting in my bid!

i've done it! i was so apprehensive and unsure about it but i've done it anyway!

now all i've gotta do is cross my fingers and wait. it would help if i could be awake during the wee hours of sunday morning... but i doubt if i can (or remember for that matter).

and so the planning continues...

i've never been a big fan of ice hockey but this goal is absolutely dynamite. not to mention that it was a 9 year old who scored it.

your heart goes out to the goalie though.

Happy

Mood : hopeful
Music : Turn it Off by Paramore

happiness is a state of mind.

regardless of how bad things are going, as long as you think you're happy, you'll most likely have a smile on your face.

keeping other people happy however is never as simple. knowing what makes a person happy and knowing how to keep someone happy to two entirely different things.

i want to be happy.

i will be happy.

When it Rains

Mood : hopeful
Music : Where the Lines Overlap by Paramore

i remember stepping out of Sainsbury. i was just about to unwrap my little snack that i allowed myself to 'splurge' on while i was walking back home (i was really poor when i was living in the UK) when suddenly a few drops of rain started falling from the sky.

you'd normally think that you'd hate it when it starts raining while you're walking home, but not for me. not today. i popped my ipod's earphones back into my ears and pulled my hoodie over my head and stepped out into the rain.

there's something so calming about feeling light raindrops fall on your head. it's never the same here back home in Malaysia

Paramore performed an acoustic set for MTV few days ago and i couldn't find time to blog about it. i have to say they sound damn good. click on the image to watch the whole set. i've found myself listening to it almost every day now.

i've got a feeling if i sang this loud enough
you would sing it back to me
