我的快樂 會回來的

Boss is back

My boss is back from England. I have to work really hard. I will try to work really hard. No, I can't because I have done all I can right now for the results so I will move on to writing and re-writing my introduction. It is still in the paper gurgling stage, not paraphrased or made sensible yet. I will have to work on that for the rest of the day.
Waiting for M to text me but I think he will be too hung over to do anything. It's holiday for him! Wow. So happy. Maybe he will be able to spend some time with me. ^_^
Fuzzy is sitting in the exam room right now doing her last exam. Good luck to you, Fuzzy, and then we can have our life back. No more quiet night without television and talking. We can do whatever we want now. Cool.
Tomorrow is the hot pot gathering at P's place. Today I will have to practice cello but am thinking about getting excused so can spend some time with M, but may just go with him to buy computer hard drive in the afternoon after finishing work and listening to seminar? I don't know. I don't know anything about buying the computer hard drive, but I know how much they cost. Hehe, that's important, too.
Hope everything goes down well. Was talking to Fuzzy about M last night. She thinks he is too young for me, but as we grow older, it doesn't matter anymore. For example, if I was 10, he was 5. That sounds weird. If I was 20, he was 15. That's illegal. Then when I turn 25, he will be 20. Then when I turn 30, he will be 25. Yes. As you grow older you can do more things, and 30 and 25 just don't sound too bad anymore. I am still waiting for his text. Patiently.

Can't get enough of him

I find it hard to concentrate at work because I can't stop thinking about him. Read an article in the paper saying that your cells will "feel" that your friend or your relative is leaving you, and get into an agitated state. That is very bad for your cell! I guess that is why man get together with woman, woman get together with man, and the scientist proved that even vegetables do that! Lettuce have feeling, too. I find that piece of information rather interesting. If this theory is correct, then people can really die of a broken heart when their love of life is dead because their cells just give up living for them. In the same line of thought, you will feel like you are sick if you can't be with someone you like. That's something to think about next time when your good friend leave you and live in an oversea country, or when your grandpa dies. Something in you dies with them, too.
The results that I get today is pretty good. Citrate is killing bacteria! Cool. But does it work better with ozone? I don't know. Next time I will repeat this experiment with a spreader so no bacteria can escape from the wrath of weak acid! Haha.
M is studying very hard, but he has already learned everything so was telling jokes and answering his friend questions yesterday when I saw him. Talked to C on the internet about her. No one seems to like their job except maybe me. I love my job. It's so interesting! I find something new today so I am happy as a bird.
Will see M today before his last exam. Yay! Are we going out or are we not going out? Are we in an relationship or are we not in an relationship? I am afraid to define anything yet but find it really hard to resist to find him. I should really play coy but I can't. I am just not a coy person. I can't play hard to get. God didn't make me that way. God made me a Taurus and a Taurus is a forward thinker who doesn't know how to play hard to get and telling lies. I am an incredibly bad liar. Don't now why.
Anyway, hope the weather holds.

Final volleyball

M started to text me again because he finally topped up his 1 cent phone. Very funny. His friend used his phone and there was only 1 cent left. It's very different to my mobile because if it is under 10 dollars then it will notify you.
He is very tired in the morning so had to go back to sleep. Great idea. We are going to watch a movie on Sunday. Yay! After the long wait of the exam period, we can finally call it a holiday.
Still working away to tidy up the results. Data entering is so boring, but it has to be done. At least it is not counting bacteria, which is even more exhausting and boring. I like carrying out the experiments, but reading the plates are not so interesting sometimes. I don't want to get any contamination so there will not be any alien substance business going on like the first year biology lab. That makes the whole excercise monotonic.
Really bored around 5 o'clock and thank god I can go home and leave the results behind. Restrained self from texting and disturbing M because he may still be sleeping. Volleyball game was a blast, and if we are still playing next year or next season, I want in! It was a great game. In the end, we are still second best because we lost to the best team in our pool.
Gave A some curry puff. They are delicious! We had a great game with A's incredible serves, J's funny net endeavours (finally won the endeavour), Fuzzy's beautiful hit and jump, with N and E's stupid shouting. I enjoyed the games this year both with my company and the engineering association.
Can't wait until Thursday so I can see M again in university. I hope I don't distract him too much before the exam. Anyway, I am much more friendlier than ex-boyfriend's crushes: they said it's impossible to become gf/bf with him right before the exams....what's up with that anyway? Shouldn't you wait AFTER the exams to do that? It's just rude and inconsiderate. Heartbroken after the exams is so much better than before, and what do they know anyway? He is afterall, a great person. What is wrong with their eyes? But that's all in the past now. I am working hard on this relationship and I want to be happy again. I will work really hard, but not too pushy this time. I want it to work.

Exchange phone numbers

Counted many bacteria plates until eyes are bunged. Still counting after morning tea because those plates are just annoying. Finally finish at lunchtime and photocopy it for supervisor to keep. Drive away very fast because really wants nothing to do with bacteria plates for a while, at least for the rest of today.
Look at the map several times before getting the his house. Living room looks very Chinese to me. Has caligraphy writing. They live in the only place where it's flat in that street in Dinsdale. Very wise choice of house.
Nagging thoughts before going on driving spree to his house that he may just be up in university. True to my gut feeling, his car is just parked in the same spot last week, where he always parked his car. Men are a creature of habits and women, too. I nearly always park my car somewhere in the carpark so it is easy to find. Ok. Car, checked, so he is definitely somewhere here in the vicinity.
He also gave me a clue last week about studying on the ground floor of the library. That's easy to track him down now, it's just a matter of self-restraint to NOT to distract him before the exam. I am weak, can't stop thinking about lunch so walked up to him to say: Shall we go have lunch?
Yes, he says. My head is going to explode. Headache is still haunting the sick man. Poor M. The flu just wouldn't go away. It's amazing that I am not that sick right now.
However, today I am very prepared. Lemon water, check. Kiwi fruit, high content in vitamin C, check. Persimon, normal fruit of some description, check. Yesterday I only had one small apple and that was pathetic defense against the big bag virus.
We exchange mobile numbers. I was going to ask him if he doesn't ask me. He still has only 1 cent on his mobile. Haha. So funny. We both have cold lunch: not very tasty. He has to finish his cheat sheets before the exam so we sit and talk about nothing important again.
Does he play basketball now? No. Don't have time and hasn't been to the gym for 2 months. So busy studying and doing homework. Poor M. Professors think you are a machine so you have homework due and tests on the same day. We are not machines, thank you very much, but they seem to pile everything on top of everything. So the students have to suffer.
His sister caught a cold, then he becomes sick. No time to sleep and rest because exams are coming so his conditions is not getting better any time. On top of that, the pressure of exams is mounting on the back. >_<
Talk about The Timetraveller's Wife. Then wish that he can timetravel and leave the virus behind him. Talking about can't study and watching a movie on the TV, but wouldn't that make his head hurt even more? Yes, he says, but that beats studying. He hates studying. Just wants to go working. Haha. Very funny.
We end our meeting by going our separate ways. He into the exam room and I get back to work. Get results from supervisor's labbook.
Hope everything will work out today for the citrate experiments. I doubt it will make much difference but it doesn't hurt to try.

What kind of guys are we looking for

The list goes on like this:
1. He must be funny.
2. He has to be an artist of some description. For example, a musician.
3. He has to be easy to talk with.
4. He has to be handsome and tall.
Me and Fuzzy agreed on these points on our list and you may think this kind of guys don't exist, but they do! Haha. We have both found guys who fit these description. Hopefully, they also find us:
1. She is funny.
2. She is an artist of some description. For example, a musician.
3. She has to be easy to talk with.
4. She has to be pretty.
I sincerely hope that I do fit this description.
Practiced skates in the skate park yesterday. It was not easy. You see all the people skating in the Olympics and you think it is easy. It is not. We are still 30 cm away from the railing and are prone to fall over and lose balance. It is a great sport, though. I will keep practicing next weekend when there's still light. A skater boy came over to give us advise. Keep your foot to a 45 degree angle to the back of the feet. Slide out, not in. Dad said has to pick your foot up like walking. Both are great advises. Also, we have seen how the skaters does it in the Olympics. The figure skaters, the speeders, and all the other video tapes in our head. Just trying to inmitating them.
Work is going slowly, but I got an extra set of results because my workmate had done them. Counting them right now. Hope they will be ok.
Can't forget the two hours spent with M. Missing him already. He has an exam this afternoon. Am considering whether to go into uni to see him before the exam or not.
Maybe bring him a chocolate from the science tea room? That's not too much I hope.
He needs someone to take care of.
