Ecstasy Dreams
Today I became a lucky lab rat for a friend, Susan. She’s studying to become a beautician and she needs models for her to practice her make-up and facial skills. She applied some natural-brownish makeup for me, I think it was okay Lar…but I looked too dramatic. After that she washed it all off (phew..i look better without makeup) and did a facial for me inclusive of a shoulder, neck and face massage.
It was really relaxing (the massage), it was very soothing and I felt really comfortable. If only my boyfriend could do this for me everyday…
I remembered a few days ago, my back muscles were feeling notoriously tense. I was furiously trying to finish some assignments and was glue to the PC in a posture similar to that of a shrimp for more than 8 hours. Needless to say my back was stiff as a stick, and miraculously I managed to persuade my very uncompromising bf to give me a back rub amidst protest of having no idea how to give someone a massage. I desperately felt like a massage and got it anyway.
I laid on my chest and watched as he balled his hands into fist and started pounding my back muscles…very…very…softly…MAHAI!!! I couldn’t feel dam a thing! Anyway I told him to put more strength’ lar. Pulak’ he straighten his fingers, Bruce-Lee-style, and started to chop my body. I felt like a “char siew”. Haiz…Susan massage on the other hand felt like what a massage should feel like and in no time I was in dreamland.
And I dreamt…I dreamt…I dreamt, I was watching ATB live in some sort of concert and I mean concert, it was not a rave, everyone was seated and watching politely. But the music was the typical ATB kind, the typical techno kind. I was seated civilly like everyone else, then suddenly Victor walked in held me a pill which I mindlessly popped into my mouth. It was ecstasy, and I was shaking my head violently, and the stage turned purple and the people on the stage turned orange, the lights turned bloody red, everything was spinning, wisps of blue, streaks of yellow were flashing in my eyes and I could see everyone was starring at me and joining in. It was really crazy, when I woke up; my head was throbbing a little. I didn’t know I could get a hangover thanks to a dream…weird…really weird…f r e a k y….
Thanks a lot Susan.
P.S. This post was meant for Tuesday, unfortunately blogger fucked up so I am putting it up today.
Contra emotions…
Today I had another really great day. I think it’s been a while since I felt sooo good and had sooo much fun. Yet I also feel sad, and slightly depressed. Today day was Carmel’s farewell party. Carmel, BTW is my line dance instructor, whom projects this cool grandma image and I’ve grown very fond of her over the last few weeks, months.
We had Chinese dinner, along with the other line dancing ladies and men (most of them are married with kids), over at Palm Springs. The dinner was not too bad and I really digged the deserts…yum…yum. After that we headed over the Citadel for some dancing party. They played many country tracks and everyone was dancing in line (cause this is line dancing we are talking about), together, most of us knew the dance moves to heart so it looked really great. Ginn and me learnt a new dance called Summer Breeze (How deep is your love?) through a VCD and where asked to perform it for them to see. I think we did pretty well and there was a standing ovulation, and clapping and cheers of “we want more, we want more!!!”…err…nolar, basically everyone just clapped…hehehe…
Ginn had something eating up her brain and had to make an early exit. I stayed on with all the aunties, uncles, grandmas and a great grand mother. Ginn and me are like the youngest people in the class the rest of them age between 40-60. Anyway everyone kept on complimenting the way I danced, cause I am young comparative to them and I am more flexible. It’s not cause I am a great dancer, it’s just that anyone aged twenty something definitely can wiggle and jiggle their butt if they had to. Anyway the flattery made me loose much of my inhibitions and I dance non-stop till about midnight. Raymond, and his wife Cecelia(ballroom instructors) also performed two ballroom dances for us to watch. They are really good, Raymond though is better and very much more flexible and graceful then his wife. They used to compete professionally I heard. It was great, I loved the music, the people, Carmel and the sweat dripping from my forehead.
Now my feet are slightly blistered and I am at home feeling totally spent. I walked Carmel home after it all…boy I am gonna miss her…
