It doesn't get better than this. Full-on bumming.
I got more books from Borders... those that I've been trying to find for some time. Most notable one of all is Chesterton's
Orthodoxy. While shopping in the same mall, I got something for my pod.
The sound quality in my opinion is OKAY lar. Maybe I just haven't tune it to the right frequency yet. Still can't beat plugging it into a cassette player. Any advice on how to make the sound better?
As best man of Y, (well one of them) I remembered I was given a task of monumental weight. In fact, failure to accomplish it would lead to unimaginable disasters on the wedding day. The pressure is on. Everything else would depend on this. There can be no room for error. I must be determined and focused.
OBJECTIVE : PURCHASE TIES FOR THE GUYS.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen. As you can see, it's no walk in the park. I must battle neurosis from scanning the myriads of colours and patterns crafted in fine Italian silk, all juxtapostioned to create quite a shopping dilemma. Stripes, checkered, plain, squared patterns, round patterns - you name it, they got it. Problem is: I got to get something close to a lavenderish tone. And not just one but four of them. That's hard. And it doesn't help that most of them are simply an eyesore. But I must persevere, for the physical image of my fellow best men depends on it.
Well, I gave up.
I'm usually adept in my shopping skills and fashion sense but shopping ties for people is definitely not my forte. Make that two separate tasks: Shopping for ties AND shopping for people. Perhaps the development of that skill comes from when one day I may have to wear one everyday to work. Of course, that issue cease to exist if I become a fitness trainer. So gals, learn how to shop ties for guys. You will be very much appreciated. And don't say it's hard to shop for guys. Cute cuddly stuff is cool once in a while but we are perfectly alright with stuff we can USE. Now back to the ties. By this time, I'm also wondering why Y's emphasis on the ties. I mean, jon is probably going to wear his "well-worn" jacket.. i mean suit... which I think deserves greater attention. All in all in my opinion, as long as the bride looks beautiful on that day, that's all that matters.
Having said all that bullshit.... guys, let's just get em together on sunday.
Now that I've failed my mission not-really-impossible... I'm quite bored. So bored that I started doing
BBC's psychological and senses test. Quite fun actually. You can skip the personality test if you're absolutely bored of such things. But if you got nothing to do like me, why not?
But be sure to try the Disgust Test (jon should ace this), the sense challenge and the sex of your brain test.
A few finds about myself: (thanks to BBC)
- I'm neutral - my brain sex is between that of male and female. Probably because I'm a bit better with words and is said to be quite sensitive to what people are thinking and feeling,
- I'm left-brain dominant. Meaning I'm more verbal and analytical as compared to right-brainers.
- I'm quite a pro in reading people's eyes, tying it with their moods.
- I sucked in spotting people's fake smile.
- Guys' ring finger (fourth one) generally tend to be longer than the index because of testosterone they receive in their mother's womb. If yours is shorter... well you get the picture.
- I prefer more feminine physical features for women rather than masculine.
- I'm a Resolver, meaning I'm an introvert who solves problems logically. Huh, sure or not?
Have fun. Now if you don't mind me, I must finish my Magnolia, Hotel Rwanda, Amistad and 24 Season 3 dvds by end of this week. By the way, go Pistons!
