Feeling emotions and reading minds

Today I went to 1 Utama to meet up with my ex-boss. It's strange. It's odd even.

To think that I didn't really want to see the people at 1 Utama some time ago and here I am meeting up with my ex-boss. Some of you may know how I felt as an employee in that company I worked with before but just to reiterate briefly, my working relationship with my ex-boss was rather "presurable" on my part. I did have some trouble working under her.

But let me also tell you all that it is better now. I have accepted what had happened and I find it is something one can learn about building friendship from working closely with your employer. Just make sure you know how to differentiate.

Anyway, we just talked about current happenings. At the same time it was "bonus" for me as the people I wasn't expecting to see at all showed up by coincidence. I met my ex-manager's secretary and her husband as well as some of the ex-colleagues from other departments. Very happy to get to catch up with you people, if you're reading this. Very happy indeed.

I not only managed to catch up with them but also found other information about them like Miki, also went to Murdoch Uni! So we ended up reminiscing (is this correct?) some places in Perth. I miss Perth more nowadays. Sigh. Don't the rest of us?

Oh! I would like to congratulate Li Lian on your coming marriage! Congrats to you and many many happy returns and much joy. God bless! (Eh anyone of you reading this please pass the message yar?! :) She went to Murdoch too by the way.

Pretty good turnout today. Didn't expect all these at all. I feel very happy!

On the side, I went to Atria for dinner and visited that bookshop. I am still wondering if it is Big Bookshop. The plastic bag says it is. But I don't know if it is. I'm bad.

Whichever way, I still got 2 books from them. Have bought books from them twice already and I can't get enough because I still find it surreal to buy books at such low prices! This will be my third. Well, they are not like Border's bookstores or MPH brand new (you know, just advertised and reviewed and smelling like they were just brought in by the truck load and just placed on the shelf with freshly printed ink on freshly made pulp from freshly chopped young trees kind of new?) but they look all right. Maybe a little dog-earred or a little dent and scratch on some of the books but if you're like me I always find the "nicest-looking" one of the lot, so no worries! I think there is a syndrome for this. Hmm.

Anyway, muahaha! I got another one of the Adrian Mole's Series: Weapons of Mass Destruction for only RM 12! Woo hoo! Hey finonymous: thanks for introducing Adrian to me *wink*.

The second book is a thriller. Originally German but translated to English. Shall post something on the books later. Coincidentally, I also have the desire to write about books I have read or like to read about most recently. Inspiration from Captain FlyingEgg of Lest-We-Forget. He is a writer for your info ladies. Nyaha!

Same goes with finonymous but he has been too busy to read as much as he did. And even if he did, I think he is a bit on the lazy side to write about what he had read. I know Kathia of Box-O-Rant also loves to read. Heck, we were librarians in our secondary school for like what, 5 years?! Geez! I know Zee does. I know Beetrice of Serendipity and Lyd of lydiacruise as well as Nick of Madcap Memoirs and even Jules from me_jules are avid readers.

Rambling already. Shall I tag you guys right after I have posted my thought on reading? Nyeheheh! Open to all. Just leave comments here or in the next post on books if you intend to share your love for books or even the slightest interest in books. Want to learn.

Though I don't know what tag and to meme really mean in blogsphere. Yet.

Catcha' later people!
