While we were preparing to receive our new GM in a welcoming party today, we were suddenly surprised by an announcement of a bomb threat. I, on my way to check on the food, almost dropped my jaws in surprised.. i mean, seriously? i've heard of it happening & i logically think that it is not impossible, but yet, it seem unreal that it would happen to us.. of course, i did not have some kind of whole-life-flashes-in-your-mind kinda thing.. i was too busy trying to settle/think abt the last minute details of the party & at the same time evacuating the premise etc.. hehe.. i know most of us take the whole thing lightly & made jokes about it, but what if la ek.. there was a real bomb? you people should really learn to walk faster (ie not melenggang).. i know it is 9/11 today but cant think of where we fit in this picture.. i mean we're not even a US-based company.. probably just coz we're big.. if it was my previous company, i wouldnt be surprised.. they are a well-known US company & the company logo i'm sure is way too obvious from the air..

msg'd my friend about it while waiting for the bomb squad clearance.. at first he didnt quite believe me and he supposedly planned to come over to the office today.. guess it's his lucky day today..

I was watching Oprah the other day.. she was interviewing some ladies, Jennifer Aniston included.. who are first-timer director of short movies as part of Glamour magazine challenge.. i was quite interested in what one of the ladies' commented.. that there's so many women like me (ie singles), who have their heads up in the clouds (eg on ipod, phone or just plain ignoring other people) just "miss" the signs given to them by men..

is that so? i mean, i do know i can be a bit too "lurus" (naive - i think).. and i dont usually find it easy to connect with a stranger.. so yeah, maybe i am missing all the "signs" out there, but sometimes, the ones i do meet.. gives such confusing signals, that i cant even tell what exactly these people are trying to tell me.. either he dont know how to woo a girl (ie give the right signal) or he's just plain not interested. ntahler.. to pursue doesnt seem right, but not to pursue also sounds very wrong.. ;p

so can you blame a girl for not 'seeing' the signs.... ?
