Anonymity is Preferred, Thank You Very Much

I've been reading some blogs quite regularly, and I do salute those who choose to put their real name and face onto their blog.

For me, this blog serves as an alternative avenue for thoughts/feelings I couldn't bear to share with those who know me. I have too much pride, and for me to put my face to these postings is really unbearable.

What if I got slammed for my non-existent wit, or dry sarcasm. Or worse, being pitied for my crush on Doraemon? The WORST will be if Doraemon stumbled upon this and knew I have the hots for him!

Argh.

Pride is a hard thing to swallow, and I'm not much good at swallowing anyway. Pills tend to come rushing back out of my mouth, and I really don't fancy "dead cats", which I regularly get at work.

So, yes, I'm choosing to remain anonymous.. to be known as Sylvie until the foreseeable future.

Or until I got over this affliction (aka silly crush).

Ca va!

Climb Further Up The Ivory Tower

I attended a wedding dinner last weekend in KL. My secondary school classmate was getting married.

I had not seen her for the past 11 years when she left for Australia to study, and got her PhD 2 years ago, but she still looked the same; pretty, dainty and a bloody BRAINIAC.

The most poignant moment during the groom's speech was when he said, "... J***, you can't climbed further up the ivory tower..."

And I added silently to myself, ".. where else to go?"

Where else can I go? Cos I am only one step behind her...

My Yahoo! Photos Gone Kaput

I know, I know, the migration process is still ongoing.

Meanwhile, I can't even log into Yahoo! Photos.. and my Flickr Pro (since when did I sign up for this Pro account??) has been threatening to expire on me in a week. And my Europe photos, I'll have to dig up the moldy disk I saved them into!

Argh.

Jeez, when the Big eats Small, there are debris all around.

And moi, is a professional s*** cleaner. I repeat, professional, ok!

Looks like it's high time to venture beyond Yahoooooooooooooooooooo
