the bird that flew from the nest

ok wokay smokay, 6 more days till i go back to KL, i'm frantically thinking of what to bring back, so i wouldn't have to pay for overweight charges end/beginning of next year.

was eavesdropping on a conversation in the sauna the other day (seems to be my fav. past time now) i got interested when i heard "blah blah blah, a lifeguard caught them fuckin in the dressing rooms last week ..." whoa whoa, interesting. i listened more intentively, apparently it was a middle eastern dude with huge fuckin gold chains who always seems as though he's whacking off in the dressing. fuckin ell' the thought of spew all over the shower floor and everyone including me goes in bare footed. fuck. ++ a room at the cheapest motel costs $40, if he can afford gold chains, surely he could afford that rather than the humiliation of being caught with the bird in the nest.

dickheads a plenty everywhere; people who steal your parking spots and walk away with a smirk when you question him and people who pant in your face after swimming a full lap. feel free to add more.

i went for a stopframe animation workshop by a year 2 MA student using final cut pro. verdict: what the fuck was i thinking of! judging from the amount of participants that up & left, the response wasn't great. an evening at library would have more fun.
