The Loss Of Romance.

Before-bed-chatter:

You know...you snore when you sleep sometimes...

No I dont..

Yes you do...when you are really tired...

Is it like this? (Proceeds to breathe deeply...)

Not really... its more like when your nose is more blocked that right now..

I don't accept this fact...take it back.. I do not snore...nobody told me before..

Well you do...

Well...I may snore...but you drool when you sleep...

NO I DO NOT..

Oh yes you do...

Dont say that! Its not true..

Ah Ah AH! So you can say I snore...but I cant say you drool...

But I only drool when my mouth is sick..

Right...and guess what... I only snore when I am really tired...

Okay..

So what does that tell us?

?

That no one is perfect.. Good night darling..

I am going to read a litte bit..

Okay..Good night drooler..

You too snorky..

Buggers....The loss of romance... its real-life for you baby..

I have been told that my blog entries are offensive..

Like I have said so...so many god-damn times..

Its my space.. I do and say whatever the hell I want..

You have the option to click it away...and remove me from "Your Favourites" list in your IE..

Dont whine about it...Just thank God.. say your blessings..that I didnt put your name in BOLD..

Weight. Loss of it.

I think..I am being fed...or I am eating..the most nutritious food since I came to Taiwan 2 and a half years ago..

So the long working hours...and the sitting in front of the computer..and the whole inactive lifestyle has really taken a toll on my body..

The weight put on aside... I now have sore backs...poor blood circulation...bad digestion..

The swimming pool is now too far away...the gym too expensive...and work is a tee wee bit too far to walk to everyday..

So now... the war against fats and water bloatedness begins..

And step no. 1 is to make better use of my bicyle...a xmas gift from Amore..

I call it "Barbie"... because its pink..white...with a basket in front..and totally girl and gigglish..

So today was the first day that I rode to and from work...and can I say.. I am hooked..

Its not dangerous.. I ride on pavements...so I ride about 30 minutes everytime..

Am planning to keep this going.. the fact that I am going to save considerably from transportation will get this lazy butt on the bicycle everymorning..

Of course...there are some inconveniences..like having to change everyday in the office just before entering the office..

I cant simply do my job wearing sweat pants.. winter bunny hats...gloves..and converse sandals..

Did I forget to say that its freezing over here?

Like 10 degrees just...and I had a splitting headache...coz it was simply too cold to ride...

Anyways that aside...so it also means that from today...dinner will be split into 2 portions..

And apples will replace sweets during crunch time in the office..

THE WAR AGAINST FATS STARTED TODAY!

Bye bye chocolates..

You will be the hardest to let go..

Big breasts no brains.

I still have half my deposit with her...as she said she just came back from abroad..and didnt have much money..

Being the kind person that I am.. I thought that I should be kind...understanding.. just as all of you guys (in Taiwan) have been towards me..

Like giving karma back.. since people have been real good to me when I first got here..

She got her boyfriend to call me back...And he gave me the sob story about how she was such a poor thing because she had been cheated by so many landlords..

So what? She got smart and cheat me instead?

I mean...come on... why get your bf to call me back? Cant you solve this by yourself? You spent 12 years in Africa... and if you arent bothered by the safari...why would you be so dumb and simply not understand about the whole simple rent-deposit thing?

And if you dont turn up on Saturday...at our meeting with our landlord..and give me back my deposit..

Boy will I wait at home for you.. I still have the keys to the old house you know..

Brrr..

Pissy.

No matter how I was feeling..

I dont know if its because its the song that I had playing back on my computer and radio when you broke my heart..

Or simply because it reminds me of all the pain and the crying by the bed...

Or maybe its because...I figured its the end of it...and the song only stirs up the feeling of loss and why-is-this-so..

Funny thing is that I have no idea what Ken Hirai is singing about..

It probably sings of lost love..

Play the game of catch-up..

Went to Hong Kong...for the 4th time...to meet up with my family... had a nice time... had a fantastic talk with my mother...and relationships do take communication..

Will touch on that subject later...

But let's play catch-up.

Elliot Bruce William Harder got married..... quite a while ago...and you see below pictures from the wedding :)

Am so deliriously happy for him...he's been with his wife many years...and finally the big man is married..

Bought him a decent number of wine glasses...

Congratulations my dear...Am very very delighted for you..

I bought that dress that day he got married...Though my boobs were almost falling out... I thought it was decent..

Thats Piero and me with "Leng Zai" Vincent...A cameraman that I used to work with back at previous employment...He is married..just in case you are interested..

And then there is Jean...This entry is way overdue...that girl was here more than a month ago...and I am such a lousy friend...to finally post this picture up...

Jeanie...it was great seeing you again... I missed having a girlfriend that I can talk to and simply be myself...Thanks for popping over... Your gifts and you companionship is very very much appreciated...and looked forward to...

And then there is Piero's family who came...and I finally met them..

His father is real funny and Giancarlo is his name...Though my Italian was limited and his English as well....I bought him a cake...and I think that sealed the deal... He told Piero he thinks I "have alot of life"...

And Auntie Ebe... such a dearie dear... I mean... An exceptional teacher...who went to China on her own to teach Italian..and a world-apart of difference from the rest of Italian mothers...she gave me 2 crash courses in Italiano...and her decades' long teaching experience....I got the difficult parts of Italiano in a flash..

She said "I like Jane".....that seals it too :)

Okay... so this is an entry that sums up all the best things that happened to me for the past 2 months....Was too tied up at work to write more...plus the fact that I have to admit I forgot some details..

AND OH YEAH! I moved house... There will be a New Year Party... some of you will be invited..

Cramming everything onto 1 entry is bad..I know... But now that I am finally settled.. with wireless broadband...and someone to do  my laundry..

I am all set for a better blogging habit..

Merry Christmas everyone!

Ciao and many cheers

Jane

But it's not my fault!

One of the models we engaged today...to do a fashion show...

Actually walked down the run-way...showing the wrong side of the product...

The best thing was that we actually had a rehearsal..and we corrected him already..

The product was a credit-card....and he showed the back-side of it..

Guess how the client responded?

And where did the daggers fly to?

Pizza for everybody!

Finding a place to live in Taipei can lead to depression.

Am camping over at Pipilu's for a little while before we find a place together..

But I repeat...and emphasize...that we are flatmates...2 individuals with their own seperate bedrooms..seperate space...But of course...camping over at each other's room is allowed..

Anyways, that point aside..

We are left with 2 weeks to find a decent place to settle..

We have seen 8 places..and they all sucked..

If we like the interiors..the surroundings suck...if we like the enviroment... the decor has to suck..

There's always something wrong..

So now, we are left with areas outside of Taipei city... Taipei County is probable... that means I have to make longer journeys to work..

Damn damn damn... Hate long journeys in the morning...Am not always at my best when travelling to work..I can be grouchy and anti-sociable... and have an extremely high tendency to oversleep, cant decide what to wear, and be late..

But I leave it to whatever it is...things always seems to have a way to turn out right..

I mean if it is...it is you know...if it is not..it is not..

Ciao ciao old room..

I have become an unreliable, never-around, irresponsible friend..

I have to cancel so many dinners at the last minute...because my client suddenly has a PR crisis...or some co-worker cannot finish his/her work on time... or I am so tired...or some big boss is here to visit..

I dont like this...and I am sure many have put up with me for this..

This apology goes out to all whom I have cancelled appointments last minute, or was zoned out during meals..or was late..

This is for you Celine, apologies for cancelling our dinner..

I dislike this..I doubt I can be just tolerant if someone else did this to me..

But circumstances...cant be helped...
