Do You Watch "Grey's Anatomy"?

I watched it tonight, after 4 weeks of absence. Caught it after "Desperate Housewives" season 2 debut. I missed quite alot of the DH cos I was trying to get the flowers I bought to go into the new vases I got from IKEA, hence, can't comment much on DM. Except maybe that unforgettable moment when Bree lifted her dead husband from the coffin and replace his tie (the one his mom says has sentimental value cos he values the school) with Lynette's hubby's one. Very DH. Very cool. Bree actually could do it calmly, as always, making all things perfect. Oh, then there was the other scene when Lynette went for an interview with her baby Penny in tow. She managed to impress the boss and got hired. Well, we don't know what kinda job she will be in yet, though we heard her office is somewhere down the the end of the corridor.

Anyway, back to Grey's Anatomy. (For those who do not know, GA is like ER, only not as gan cheong in the Op Theatre and less dramatic when it comes to surgical scenes). Meredith (Grey) summarised the epsiode with what she began with. Something about a quote by Benjamin Franklin to seize the day, or something to that effect. That somehow we like to defy what the ancients, what our parents, what proverbs have written about. We like to procrastinate and delay. But rightfully we should try, to seize the day, to do know than to wonder...

Chim? Haha... Just some personal reflections. I've been telling myself not to procrastinate and to be more assertive when making decisions. But end up, I make the wrong hasty decisions and drag on the important ones.

Sheer foolishness.

You know, I realised that I have grown up a little today? My sister sms me in the evening to tell me that she has miscalculated the installments for the computer, THIS month should be the final payment, not the last one. And that she hope that I would transfer the money over to her acct (we are using HER credit card for the payment). The first thing I saw the message was that I am going to reply her "WHAT? But you told me..."

However, after i typed "WHAT?", i pressed the cancel button on the phone. I just felt there is no point for me sending that message, cos it will cause misunderstanding. Might as well do the transfer of money to her account and let her know once it's done and don't say anything.

So, I thought I did a good job. Maybe I should have done the transfer earlier. She just MSN me and told me about the payment thingy. So, I told her i know about it and I thought it was suppose to be over last month. Hence, I spent more during CNY this year. She offer to pay, but I told her nevermind I will pay. Then she say she was trying to help, but since i say nevermind, she got nothing to say.

(WHAT?) I didn't expect her to say anything what. She said she was trying to help, and if it's not appreciated, so be it.

(Wa kaoz!) "Look, i am not trying to stir up dissentment or dissatistfaction. if you want to feel this way, there is nothing i can do"

.................

And I thought I could give myself a pat on the back for holding back my insensitivity. I got misunderstood anyway.

So you tell me, what's the point of being "nice"?

(Still fighting that cough. The wake-up-from-date-from-hell worked well. My body is stronger, and I ate more. Quite sure the cough wil go off soon. Am thankful already that the fever is gone. Thank you, God.)
