48 Hours

In 48 hours I will be able to tell you the plot of The Dark Knight. We all know that its about this guy in a black tight jumpsuit with a cape that likes to shine lights up on top of buildings who is fighting this dude in a purple suit with eternal happiness plastered onto his face. I am looking forward to Heath Ledger's last movie because I admire him as an actor and also because we were young once, and drooled over him in 10 Things I Hate About You. Christian Bale is also extremely hot and will provide eye candy. I also happen to know that this movie was shot on location in Hong Rockin' Kong and they filmed it at the Batman building where the banker works. Well, it has an official name but is also known as the Mehul / Batman building. I have a dare with the American: We are going in matching Batman t-shirts. =D For someone as serious as him, it would be funny. I had to compromise the full costume complete with cape to be worn the whole day at the bank for a cute t-shirt *shesh*. I think I am too accommodating!

Work has been fun with the interns around. It has also been brilliant to have someone to have meals with every night. This just disproved my theory that I am an anti-social being. I enjoy the company of my nearest and dearest but I don't like the awkwardness of getting to know people. I have completed the family shopping and my bag looks to be full of presents for the family. It is not everyday I get to go home and I realise how people who live far away from each other would use monetary and material bribes to relieve the guilt they have for not being there in person. I wonder if the sister would feel that I am over-showering her with presents? I doubt so, she seems intent on getting more out of me.

I got my China Visa sorted before I am going back. The mother called to tell me that they are not issuing any more after this week. Thank goodness I had the foresight to plan ahead!

Moral of the story: Planning ahead is good for peace of mind. It is also a sign of OCD.

I am going to get some Peking Duck for Friday and watch the light show at Victoria Harbour with the intern. It is a very relaxing way to spend the night before heading for Batman. One of my friends is quitting his job to go woo this girl he likes who lives in another part of the country. While I am pissed that he broke his promise to meet up this time, I am also fascinated that there are guys as reckless as him who would do such drastic things for a thing called love. Maybe love is not so fickle after all. Maybe, just maybe, someone may love me enough to do the same one day?
