a colored spectrum

flowers

picked up a big bouquet on my way home last nite.
i estimated it cost $55 and above.
fresh lovely bouquet beautifully wrapped in peach colored paper.
2 sunflowers, 4 champagne roses, and a whole lots of other little flowers and leaves.
it eludes warmth and joy. i was melted at first sight.

but... it was stuffed into the rubbish bin! (no, it wasn't inside the bin, too big to pass through)
all pretty, expensive and yet lonely and unwanted.
such irony. i felt sad for that bouquet.
i took it out of the bin, had a good look.
it's still so fresh! and the end of the bouquet was still cold.
that means that it came from the florist not long ago.
the petals were young and tender, without any heat stress signs.
i decided to bring it home. unwrapped it. put it in a vase.
now it's all pretty and loved in my living room. yay!

i was wondering why the bouquet ended up in the bin.

scenario 1:

girl doesn't dare to bring the bouquet home, fearing that her parents will question her.
appreciated the thought. but as compared to parental disapproval, parents win.
byebye to bouquet.

scenario 2:

boy meets girl. girl quarrels with boy, and breaks up with boy.
even the bouquet fails to please her. therefore, boy's dejected. dumps bouquet.

scenario 3:

boy meets girl. realizes it's the wrong type of flowers. dumps bouquet for a new one.

whichever the case is, this poor pretty thing is sitting in my house now.
pls treat your flowers with love, care and attention. they were once a living plant.
they bring colors and joy to the world. they scent the winds with their floral perfume.
thus, they ought to be respected =)

nway, it's been a fucking lousy day. so fuck the world.
everyone's busy. no one's free to go out with me.
fucking bored. Liz cancelled Velvet so i have fucking no plans coz i rejected everyone earlier.
Mich's out at SAM with Jon. Don's out with the other honours students at Wala Wala.
Hui Ling is out watching french movies.
fuck. i am fuckin bored.

here i am sitting at home starring at my lappie's screen when everyone's else out.
had 2 glasses w Don n his frens at Wala Wala earlier. fun intellectual sparring.
but they're quite aggressive. i prefer sessions where it's just me and Don.

Josh? don't talk about Josh.
i am having great difficulty talking to him. it's like talking to an oxen.
and i'm irritated by him nway.
it does take alot to annoy me badly.
but screwing up my time schedules and upsetting me 2 days in a row is a winner.
he never tells me whether certain events are confirmed, whether changes have been made etc.
he never plans! and he's so stressed about his work. fine. then go focus on your work!
whatever.

fuckin pissed with this world.
