I am drinking green tea, eating beehoon.. but my drink taste like carlsberg. -.-

10 reasons to hate brothers- & why they hate their sistas!

10 REASONS TO HATE BROTHERS.

1. They never pee straight into the cubicle/or they never flushes the damn toilet bowl.
2. They are lazy with laundry, even when its ALREADY inside the washing machine. (can't they just pour the damn detergent and press start!?)
3. They never washes the bowls. The bowls = one of the poor sistas' jobs.
4. They are never initiative. Except when its time to play games/watch tv/sleep/pee.
5. They have lower threshold of tolerance than they think. At least so when girls 'talk' about the above reasons.
6. They love food, but they love to criticise it too.
7. If your room is messy, don't wait for help in tidying it up. They'll help you to mess it up further without your request.
8. Their shoes smells. Period!
9. They hate advices. They love to say "I don't need you to teach me what to do.." BUT THEY NEVER DO.
10. They're never consistent with the allowance. Heh!

10 REASONS WHY THEY HATE THEIR SISTAS.

1. The sista talk, then nag and finally paste up a post-it in the toilet where they can see with the words "FLUSH THE TOILET! :(" and their gf saw it.
2. The dirty laundry inside the washing machine which they were too lazy to pour detergent and press start was taken out and thrown back into the dirty laundry basket.
3. The sista washes the bowls, once.. twice... thrice and finally quit washing it altogether. He had no choice but to wash it if he wants to EAT something with that bowl.
4. The sistas are never initiative.. when it comes to giving them food/games to play/tv to watch.
5. The sistas have higher tolerance level. They're still 'reasoning' when they're nagging. It's still LOGICAL and REASONABLE.
6. The sistas never cooks again after the brother criticise. (TOO BAD.)
7. Sista request brother not to leave anymore things in the room as it is messy enough. Brother refuse to heed, sista refuse to let him enter.
8. Sista spray air sanitiser on the damn shoes and socks.. and sometimes he wonder why his leg is itchy. LOL!
9. Sistas love giving advices. Maybe not advices, suggestions a better word. No matter how the brothers hates it.
10. Sistas are forever like moms. On the dot with allowance. :))

5am in the morning..

It's 5am in the morning and I'm still awake. Yeah I know that I should probably get to sleep since I'm waking up at 8 to prepare to get to work(and perhaps grab some delicious food for the first meal!) but I've been.. I don't know, thinking.. and mom's not home since she's overseas and perhaps I misses her constant naggings that I can't get to sleep.

Not that I'm a total mummy's girl or something but mom's been unhappy in the recent period of time and we've been talking more than usual and I'm more open up to her now. The fact that the people she's travelling with aint really nice souls are not putting my mind to ease! A good thing that she at least know us enough to give us a call everyday..

oh and time to get to sleep. goodnight peeps! May everyone dream of me tonight! :D

SBG Photo updates

Update on pictures.. These are my favorites :)

 

Singapore Botanic Garden

A visit to the Singapore Botanic Garden today turns out to be a fruitful day of snapshots, dog-flirting and lame jokes. Am trying to upload the better pictures up here but my Adobe's trial is over!! :(

Currently using Corel Painter, massive memory-hogging software. Everything also not enough memory to perform I tell you which is making me.. sleepy.

This is the Tanglin entrance of SBG. The color tones are different and I kind of altered them to eh become what I'd like them to be but which can never appear in real life since my father is not surnamed Lee, with prominent background or sorta.

More pictures and stories on the way..

the story about the irritating big whiner..

In case you're not sure you're doing this to me..

DUDE, YOU'RE TESTING MY PATIENCE.

Stop talking craps to me and stop whining like a baby coz you're fucking irritating. Not just irritating. Fucking irritating. Why do I need to repeat my words like the 4th times and you're nagging at me for the 5th time?!

and dude, i don't really fucking care about you.. so FUCK OFF NOW.

*BLOCKED from msn.*

静静的..

This is a meme kobed from a friend's blog. The thing is to describe how you'd love a person/animal/thing and you can describe it as 1st/2nd/3rd party. You can make it as fun/loving/romantic/crazy/ridiculous as you want it to be.

Remember, there's no rules for expression! :) Anyone who is free just do it la. Say no rule liao still want me pass meme on..

静静的把你放在视线中央

静静的听你苦诉着每一天

静静的夜晚想起你的一切 就在那静静的夜里傻笑..

就算有一天你..

静静的离开我的视线

静静的身影有了冷漠

静静的夜让我想起你与她.. 让那静静的夜有了悲伤..

我依然会静静的想起你, 祝福你.

直到我静静的懂得放下你..

La Pizzaiola

I may be on a tight budget now, which is really a frantic attempt to stop myself from overspending.. but hey! It doesn't kills the tastebud or the urge to try out good food! Especially when prices beats pastamania and have real good reviews. So here comes the question...

Anyone fancy a lunch/dinner at La Pizzaiola?

Take a look at the menu here

Craps.

It is hard for me to blog this out, for I am not the person to talk about feelings and expressions. Perhaps I am one who can't even convinces myself sometimes so to talk about true feelings and expressions, its even harder for me to judge if im lying or telling the truth.

Thats why I prefer to keep it under wraps and keep it hidden.

Keeping it under wraps isnt a difficult thing to do.. trying to make it work is. If I dont want anyone to know and i dont care, I could just tell the person and say "see, i don think you're the priviledged one to know how i feels so fuck off." but you know something they call relationships? To avoid this fragile invisible string from breaking (which exists in families, friends and even strangers) you've got to put on a smiley-face approach which makes me tired so people wont bug you further and irritates you which makes you have to go thru another round of smiley face.

All i want to say is, I am really taking you as a really good friend thats why I'm bothering to get a day out with you. If you're always rushing for time when we have to get out, i'd rather we not get out. If you're always not available, then I'll stop trying. If you're slotting me in between spaces of your fun time, then I won't want to get out.

I know that sounds bad, but bad is not the word to describe when you mention that dinner should be quick because well.. you're rushing for time. Despite me setting a date with you two weeks earlier so you have nothing on. The word that can replace bad is the word "sad" and despite me trying to be nice and everything I don't think I can tolerate being so and thats why I'm blogging it out here.

I don't know if you're reading this or what you will think of me after reading this. Honestly I won't say I don't care, because I do, but rather at the moment I want to put me above you. Above everyone else. I'm sicked of being the nice happy charps who laugh everything off because I don't really feel like laughing them off but rather fight them off.

Friends, friends, friends. Blardy friends. If I have a wish I'd wish for myself to wake up to my fucking sense and stop being such a 'forgiving, unpetty and happy-go-lucky' person as a buddy describes. Because, the forgiving,unpetty and happy-go-lucky me is having a latrine built on top of my head and everyone's pulling them shit off me!

BASTARDS.

and yes, I'm feeling so damn crappy now.

Upset.

Chipmunk tagged and asked why I seldom blog about my feelings down here. It's not that I don't blog, I do.. but maybe I just try to keep it at the back of my head and not try to put them up here.

But now, I'm really upset. Very.

I don't know what to say and I don't think I want to say anything so don't ask me anything. People who are irrelevant stay out and mind your own business before you get a lashing from me just because you're trying to act smart alec and because I don't bloody hell wants to have your goddamn 'smarty' input or downright stupid ideas now.

The job interview

I went for my interview today and boss briefed me about what my job scope would be and was even nice enough to give me a ride to TPY so I could take a train home(ok, he was on his way to meet gf around that area so..lol!)

I don't really know what my position should be. Secretary? Personal Assistant or admin? But since I'm doing the work as his previous secretary is doing I supposed I'm a part-time-mode secretary. Heh. Very nice guy and yea, I consider my pay decent enough though no one would refuse a pay rise..

Was doing a little art and craft at home for my new 'notice board' but once again I've proven myself a remarkable artwork retard who can do nothing except sketch a screwdriver blardy well.

And why a screw-driver!? I think you've got to ask the screw driver that I was sketching.. maybe it has some magic powers. lol!

Anyway, I used commandstrip for the pasting of board onto my wall so it'll be easier to remove in future. The instruction on the use of commandstrip wrote:

Pull the perfomator off till it SNAPS.

So I tried to do it gently but it wouldn't snap.. so I used a little more force and.. it SNAPS! OH WOW! IT SNAPS INTO TWO!!

.......

and that explains why my notice board is damn ugly. I should've pasted a dark piece of paper behind or something..

Let the mind wander.. if the body can't.

Wandering is not easy, but not wandering is harder. So I guess it sums up what I'm thinking now.

Commercial: Blockbuster MOUSE!

Mouse - Blockbuster

Everyone wants to know the final outcome.. me too :(

Everyone is always interested in the final outcome.

No matter what they say about the process, the final outcome is just important. When people say they didn't mind losing a game because the experience is all that matters, learning something is all they needed, their final outcome wasn't on the game itself, but their life. So their life is the final outcome and it does matters.

Ok, I don't know if anyone catch what I'm trying to say but let's say I was writing down notes while doing a reading using the tarot cards for myself and it's freaking true this time round.

The first few times might be a blooper or a coincidence (ahyi says mine was quite accurate but i dont know!) and this is the one that makes me feel like.

Ok, this is real. This is really... real.

I was asking whether to accept the new job offered. I'll just do a brief summarization.

The cards indicate me as a person who is like. encyclopedia. Would give people 'facts' instead of sympathetic words during their depressed period cause I don't believe in coaxing people to make them feels better (you're only confusing them with the facts in my opinion but thats another story.) and thats true.

It also listed my fears and hopes and what I've always wanted to attain. The most freaky thing is that I realized I've got a card over and over again in one particular stage where it is about what I wants to achieve/best can achieve and its a positive card :)

I was in this dilemma because I didn't know what could be worst, to get a job and gets tied up with work, missing out on life OR to reject the job and get tied up with financial difficulties. The card gave me this interpreted answer:

Do not be afraid to move because you're scared of being hurt (no matter which I choose) because it's gonna hurt most if you don't move and you won't advance.

and yet, the final outcome, the card that I got for it is the hardest to interpret (commented by experienced tarot readers)

**P.S: I really think there's a guardian angel or spirit around me or when I'm using the deck of cards. Okay, I might sound crazy but when I did a little prayer and start askin' for help there's this tinglin' , fuzzy feelings inside me and being the target for real weird happenings in my old home and the 'hostage' in a long long time ago incident, I think its not hard to believe at all.. that there's truly angels, spirits protecting us

and by 2025 we're going to have problem finding safe water to drink so conserve water. In fact I think it might be a better idea for our government to start getting us to practise the 'way of life' in some countries.

What Happens When You Drink Your Own Urine

Remember to drink your urine every morning. Guranteed to boost great health and conserves water, unless you're a diabetic.

"Ways of using AUT" Drinking: Morning urine is best. Take the middle stream. You can start with a few drops, building up to one glass a day. Good as a tonic, as a preventive and in minor illnesses. Fasting: Drink all the urine you pass, except for the evenings—otherwise you won’t get any sleep. You can also take some extra water. The urine will quickly change its taste into almost neutral. Fasting on urine and water cleanses the blood. Toxins are removed through liver, skin and exhalation. Gargle: Gargling with urine works wonders when having a throat-ache. Also good for toothache and generally when having a cold. Enemas: Urine enemas work very well in cleansing the colon and in providing a direct immune stimulant. Vaginal douche: Helpful in cases such as yeast problems, white discharge, etc. Ear and eye drops: For ear infections, conjunctivitis, glaucoma. For the eyes, dilute the urine with some water. Sniffing urine/Neti: Sinusitis and other nose problems. Very good preventive for colds and to clean the subtlechannels in the head. External application Massaging/rubbing: You can use either fresh or old urine. Old urine (4 to 8 days) is generally more effective, but it has a pungent odour. Massaging the whole body is an important complementary treatment when fasting. It nourishes the body through the skin and helps against increased heartbeat. You can leave the urine on or wash it off after an hour or so, just with water or with a mild, natural soap. Fresh urine as an after-shave gives you a beautiful soft skin. It is also helpful in all kinds of skin problems such as itching, sunburns, eczema, psoriasis and acne.Gentle rubbing of urine into acupressure points (for example, on the ears) is useful when reactions are otherwise too strong accompanied by heavy allergic reaction. Foot baths: Any skin and nail problems of the feet (athlete’s foot and ringworm) Compress: When rubbing is not appropriate, this is another way of applying urine on the skin. Hair and scalp massage: Renders the hair soft and clean. Sometimes stimulates new hair growth.

Common FAQ for sprees' WHINERS

Technorati Tags:

Wow! We finally closed our less-than-2-days spree from threadless.com. Bonkey and I were aimming for the 15 tees benchmark but we ended up at 32 because of crazy threadless fans!

Like us!!! :D

I got 5 tees and each comes down to SGD$15~$16 after shipping. We were unable to accept any more orders for this spree as we experienced shirts in cart being OOS due to delays in placing orders, even if the shirts were added to cart. Which is.. sigh.

And I guess, these are the common found scenarios.. and the answers.

FAQ

1. I need time to ask my friends! To get their money and to place orders! Why do you close the spree so early!?

Ans: Quoting from Dictionary.com, the meaning of a spree is termed as "a period or outburst of extreme activity" which means that during this period of time everyone will be placing ALOT of orders especially during the quarter sales period when prices goes down.

This also means items are going out FAST and we're not going to be responsible for it. What we can do is we'll notify you once the spree is open so you can quickly rush home, plan, ask your friends and place the order. There is a number we aim to reach and once it is reached, we will close the spree. When that time comes, we will notify you again because we have to safeguard not only your interest, my interest but everyone's interest.

2. But IT'S STILL EARLY! WHY ARE YOU SO IRRESPONSIBLE? ITS ONLY 19 AND THE SPREE ENDS ON THE 23!!!

Ans: Okay buddy, listen. There are people who paid and placed their orders and although they are added to cart, the tees can still be OOS. So lets say you paid and your spree organizers decided because they want to give their friends time to think over.. at the expense of your items being OOS, how would you feel?

I would strangle and kill those time-wasting bastards for sure. :)

3. I've placed my order! But why isn't it included in the list?

Ans: Because you haven't paid the money, arsehole. PERIOD! :)

4. BUT I DON KNOW WHICH METHOD OF PAYMENT YOU RECEIVE! THATS WHY IM LATE!

Ans: Hi Mr/Ms Airhead, we accept transfer via the following bank. I hope you're singaporean because if you haven't heard of them, you ought to be shot in the head.

DBS/POSB/UOB/OCBC/Fairprice OCBC/Maybank

The following will be available soon..: Citibank.

5. Ok, so I have placed and paid my order. So?

Ans: We will pm/sms you when orders is in and ready for collection. Being friends surely we have some kind of contacts.. and since you know where to find us, please do not PM/SMS every other day to check if it arrived. I have experience of wasting 10 to 20 smses on stupid question like this (see below)

"Hi! HAVE MY SHIRT ARRIVE?!"

"Hi! HAVE MY SHIRT ARRIVE?!"

"Hi! HAVE MY SHIRT ARRIVE?!"

"Hi! HAVE MY SHIRT ARRIVE?!"

.......

What, do you really think the items flew over on their own? and do you not know estimated arrival is just a.. ESTIMATION?!

6. Ok, the item have arrived.. so whats now?

We will make arrangements to meet you for a lunch/dinner (or supper if you'd like) and let you collect the item while we're out having a nice meal. Please do not expect your poor friend, me, to run all the way to where you live and deliver it to your place. I'm not from UPSP/FedEX or Singpost. But let's say if you're really crippled in some way, please allow me to retain your items for you until one day I happen to drop by your area.

*note: This might take months, years or even decades depending on your location.

And these are the common FAQs. Probably noticed that I didn't touch on exchange rates? I normally quote a higher number and then refund all the remainings when the bank statement comes. So people, if we're not even earning a tip (or even few cents) from these sprees, pls stop WHINING and be considerate.

Royce's Nama Original..

 

Sweet-Sniffing Addiction. (oppose to Finger-Licking Good!)

Spiderwick! :))

A mocha frappuncino and a salad is all that it needs to make it a good day, if it isn't so already. Baskin' in the evening sun I made my way towards home, walking as the sun shines down and made everything look so lovely. Like its almost impossible to miss it with its presence.

And thats when I prayed a little in my heart, hoping good things will stay the way it is.

An afternoon out with Chipmunk and Changi to watch "Spiderwick" at Cineleisure. We lunched at Pasta Mania which made all of us so bloated especially Chipmunk and I who had carbonara. I swearin' off carbonara at Pasta Mania next time round! The movie was great, exciting with adventures and great sound effect and graphics. If I have to discredit on anything, it'll be the ugly globlins.. but they're supposed to be ugly, ain't it? So its a really great show. 5 stars! Go watch it now!

*and if you're waiting for spoilers, no.. I'm not giving any spoilers this time round. Heh!*

...or maybe I am.

- Quote of the day -

"What happens if the book land into their hands?"

"You die, I die.. Bye bye."

We also managed to get to Kinokuniya (favourite of all time) and each of us got one deck of tarot cards home! I'm going to try my hands on the deck once I'm done with my frappuncino or this entry, whichever later.

Till then.

New Job opportunity

God has a way of making things come true. Just when I'm sitting on my bed wondering how am i going to spend this remaining one month holidays, how am i going to earn some money for the savings and so many more, Candy calls me.

Call me to ask about how many people to split the last day's sales with. Is it 10 or 11? Hmm.. apparantly in my impression there's only 10, but there is one name that i do not recongize so she's calling to check with other people..

So I thought ok, that just disrupted my thought. Now to start thinking again. When the phone rangs and its from a different number. Thinking its her again, I picked up the phone and went "Hello!" only to get a shock when I hear a man voice.

"Hello.. is this C?"

"yes.. you are?"

"Hi! I am xxxxxxxx! From XXXXXXX Insurance."

*mind flashes a million images and reasons to find out why he is calling me. Then thought about the DPS form I got this morning from their company and concluded must be that insurance adviser.."

"Ok.. so you're calling me for..?"

"Oh.. do you remember that I mentioned I will call you? One year back.. at the IT Show?"

*mind flashes images by again.. OH! He's that guy who got a hard disk from me and even passed me his name card after he gave me a good handshake!*

"Oh!! I remember you!"

"Ok so i was thinking remember I asked you about joining us? I have a part-time job so I was thinking if you wanna help me out.. (after he realizes I'm still too young. Hah!)"

and thats how I think I'll get a new job. If everything goes well! :)

Something Borrowed, Emily Giffin PT.2

"Well, be patient with her. You'll never regret being a good friend."

I consider this gemstone from my mother. One would be hard-pressed to disagree with it. In fact, it is the way I have lived my entire life. Avoidin regret at any cost. Being good no matter what. Good student. Good daughter. Good friend. And yet I am struck with the sudden realization that regret cuts two ways. I might also regret sarcrificing myself, my own desires, for Darcy's sake, in the name of friendship, in the name of being a good person. Why should I be the martyr here?

..........I would be forced to live with "What if" forever.

I like this passage from the book I'm reading now, Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin. The way she describe things the way it is, its so close to my heart! I'm reading the book a little slower than usual, digesting one line after another more carefully than all my previous books. :D

Review: Jerry's BBQ (Off Jalan Kayu Road)

Ok, this is the picture for yesterday's fish n chips. I just needed to get this picture up so you peeps can judge if it's edible.

OF COURSE IT IS LA!!! Irritating sia you all! :P

Since we're touching on the food topic, maybe I'll just update about what Addy and I had this afternoon. We made a trip down to Jalan Kayu (where once was my favourite hunt) and got into Jerry's BBQ near the oh-so-infamous-jalan-kayu-prata which tasted like crap and as expensive as President Bush's boots!

Thins that we ordered:

Grilled Chicken Chop with Colesaw and Mixed peanuts

There were at least 3 types of nuts/beans inside, of which I only recongized two. One the common baked beans and the other the canned peanuts I'd love mom to put in the porridge. The chicken can be described in 3 words: Smooth, Succulent and Delicious. Colesaw was okay as well, not tasting like overdue vegs(example: KFC). It could have be better with baked potatoes or some pasta though, judging from the price of $15.95.

Fried Mushroom (accompanied by mayo)

This is one dish to order if I get back to Jerry's! Whole mushroom covered with batter and fried to perfection. If possible, shove the whole mushroom into your mouth and bite into it. You can feel the splutter of juice in your mouth which tasted nothing short of sweet-smelling mushroom! The dish is for sale at $10.95, makes a great appetizer.

The famous Jerry's Spicy Buffalo Wings

Ok, this is good. The wings are crispy and the sauce..sour and hot. Maybe not so hot on the first bite but by the 2nd wing Addy and I was talking about this 'hot' feeling at our nostrils. There are 3 different levels to choose from, depending on which you're comfortable with.

The least spicy - Smokey hot

The middle class - Intensi-fire

The hottest of the lot - Chef's Challenge!

We weren't so sure of chef's challenge but I figured we could handle Intensi-fire so we got that at $12.95 for half a dozen (6 wings) which is a lil pricey but worth it if you're craving for really nice wings.

Final Verdict:

Food (Excellent, A.Average, Normal, Could be better, Crap) - A. Average

Price (Bargain!, Cheap, Normal, A lil pricey, Very pricey) - A lil pricey (at least for students)

Ambience: Makes you feel American, you won't feel like you're in singapore once you're inside unlesss......

you look out of the damn windows! :))

Fish N Chips Experiment

I just cooked fish and chips and I've created my own recipe which actually taste good! (despite the abit chaota exterior) It's also my first time frying a fish and handling with one in the kitchen..

Ingredient:

• One cup of flour
• One cup of water
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
• Garlic powder
• Italian herbs
• Pepper (grind)

Ok first thing is to have the batter ready. You add the flour, water, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, baking powder into one bowl. mix it till its smooth. Set aside.

Take out the fish, make sure its thawed and dry the body. Sprinkle the remainder of salt, garlic powder, italian herbs and pepper on both sides of both. Easy on the garlic powder unless you're really into it. Massage the damn fish. :D

Pour oil into pan. The oil needs to covered half of the fish so it depends on how big your pan is. Let the oil boils and slowly set in the fish. Cover pan and rise the fire-o-meter. 5mins later your fish shld be done on one side and flip it to the other. Cover pan and rise fire-o-meter again!

If you've got leftover batter, you can pour it into the pan and cook it as well.. it tastes really good. Hah! Best served with home-served limeade and original chips! :DDD

There are still room for improvements, for example how I flip the fish over is totally :(((( and its amazing that by the time I got my fish out it looks like the picture about and not totally charred. I should really get mom to fry it one day sia..

Not moving on

This is the period when everyone's worrying about their choice of unis and here I am blogging this away. I have to say and admit that I'm pretty envious of this all. That people were moving on and finally getting out on something better or worst but at the very least, moving on.

I was telling a very close bud about how my mantra used to be doing things so we'll never regret. Leaving no room for regrets was one thing I've learnt from my dead grandfather, but also the one thing I think I failed terribly and incredulously at.

If only, If only sounds like lyrics from my favorite song now. Playing a million times away on my player, ringing in my ears and lingering as shakespeares would in my mind.

There's really no room for regrets. It makes you turn back to reminiscne years that you've lost, things that you might have gotten and people you might have better contacts with. It makes you laugh, then quiets you down and finally sends you into a depression state full of what-ifs and probablys.

I am not moving on. I am not. I know it, but I am lying to myself that I'm moving on so I can lie to myself that I'm not so useless afterall. Somehow in the back of my mind something or someone is telling me that I am so afraid to move on because it spells changes for me. Not minor changes or environmental ones, but character wise.

I am struggling to move on and to change which almost seems inevitable. One day I will lament about how successful I am in one field and how I failed terribly in another. I'm probably just a sore loser who can't take it or a free spirit who can't stand being tied down by strenduous formalities and superficials.

I might really become a tour guide someday, as my full-time occupation and that probably drives everyone I know to grave or at least send them rocking the graves out like bon jovi.

Back to where it started

I have decided to reopen this blog.

There's not much of a reason or explanation to do, but rather I'd be keeping my all my really really private stuffs over there, locked up and banned from views. This way I'll be more willing to let people know of this blog and not feel as offended as I was when the link were spread to people I'm not ready to let into my personal life.

To start it off, maybe I can introduce a book to all of you. It's been one of my reads so far and since I have only gone through half of it, I will attach an excerpt from the book itself. If it interests you do grab a copy of it by adding it to your amazon cart or something. :)

Title: Something Borrowed

Author: Emily Giffin

"Are you drunk?" His voice is a whisper in the dark.

"No," I say.Because you always say no when you're drunk. And even though I am, I have a lucid instant where I consider clearly what was missing in my twenties and what I wish to find in my thirties. It strikes me that, in a sense, I can have both on this momentous birthday night. Dex can be my secret, my last chance for a dark twenty-something chapter, and he can also be a prelude of sorts - a promise of someone like him to come. Darcy is in my mind, but somehow she is being pushed to the back, overwhelmed by a force stronger than our friendship and my own conscience. Dex moves over me. My eyes are closed, then open, then closed again.

And then, somehow, I am having sex with my best friend's fiancé.
