grins and greens


despite the bad, gloomy cloud hanging over me today, i'm grinning from ear to ear. if my mouth can just hyperextend it would as big as the one in the pic (one of my officemates decided to joke around with that pillow).
why?
well..
:: i had two followers. hehe. oh heaven. julochka (i mean, seriously, she finds time to read this insignificant blog of mine when she already has her hands full of the daily comments from her admirers and followers worldwide--me included!), and rohini prasanth (who said she's a newbie but just look at her post--seems as if she's been doing this for a long time--she's that good!). i feel like doing a little dance, im so happy. hehe.
:: i went out and and the weather, sensing my distress, made me smile, as im seeing fluffy clouds and blue sky the whole day.
:: clearing my mind and was able to think properly, and i decided that i can certainly help manoy out by praying for him. (thanks rohini for reinforcing that point. mwah!)
:: i was able to spend the day with my #1 stress reliever--my someone. :)
:: i pigged out on chinese food--for free!
:: it's my other cousin's BURPdey today (she's 20!) and i bought her a slice of cake (cant afford the whole thing)--with a tall candle of course--to celebrate this day
:: the internet connection came back after i had my panic mode (yippee!)
:: my family and relatives and loved ones all went home to their homes safe and sound after a day's work.
>>>no matter how bad you think your day went, when you come to think about it, there's still so much to be thankful for<<<

  1. Hey.. you are the one who doesn't write like a newbie. Your diction and preciseness in thought put me to shame. I have to travel all the way to India and back before I can put my point across to new york. haha..

    But thanks for all those kind words.

    See. hang in there buddy.. your day is already sunny and I am so glad for that.

    and ps - the size of the cake doesn't matter. We once celebrated a friend's birthday with a cupcake... well.. we were still in school and pocket money exhausted(does it ever last more than a week?) that was the only way.. I am sure your cousin had a blast, like my friend.

    keep it up. you write honest and awesome :)

  3. there is always something to be happy about if you just think about it. but i do know it's hard to remember that when you're feeling down.

    tho' it would seem hard to not smile if your coworker has a pillow like that. :-)

    :-)
