Dear Mr Ng,
I write you this email to inform you that my phone batt has once again died. The new twist to this age old story is that the battery charger i bought at KLIA a week ago, is actually the wrong charger for my phone’s model. Needless to say I am very exasperated because I am now not contactable by the outside world.
I would really appreciate it if you would pick up a phone charger for me on your way back from work? The phone model is the Sony Ericsson W880i. I would be eternally grateful if you could do me this favour. As you know, my decision letters will be in today and there will be many phone calls to make. PLEASEEEE. :(
I even bought you that toilet paper!!
Best,
Su Ann

that guy at klia- he shd be murdered. cos you did say w880i.
hey why don’t we go together?

Subject: Greetings and Salutations
Dear Mr Ng,
It is with great pleasure that I inform you of the soon-to-be arrival of a totally cute pink egg shaped muffin on your doorstep. Estimated time of arrival is 2130 hours at the Hong Kong International Airport and 2230 hours at the IFC Airport Express station on the 11th of April 2007. We trust you will handle the delivered goods with the utmost care. In the event that you do not, we would like to pre-empt you that the aforementioned egg shaped muffin can and will be prone to bouts of sulkiness. Should such a situation arise, the solution is simple: you have to give it lots of lovin’. Either that or a Krispy Kreme donut. Or the Grey’s Anatomy Season 2 boxed set. Or a Fendi Spy. Or maybe just a lot of lovin’.
We hope that everything is to your satisfaction. Should you require further assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.
With best regards,
The Pink Egg Shaped Muffins Dispensary

Please note my new email: (Martian’s new work email)

did any of you have to read The Dead Crow by A Samad Said for the literature component in Form 1?
i’ve just found the original Bahasa Melayu version. it’s a wonderfully nuanced poem. see for yourself what the differences are between the BM and English versions.
makes you wonder why they told us in our syllabus that the themes of the poem are worsening pollution in the country, and that the politicians of our country are the ones who should plan how we may live our lives with dignity “now and always”.
GAGAK PARIT
Dilihatnya gagak yang lara
kini kejang di parit
antara pejabat pos dan pangsapuri.
Disaksinya cungapan sorang
pesara, sawan seorang bayi
di klinik sesak sepagi,
semakin kurang dimengerti
inti kemakmuran jasmani.
Kerana di sini hanya kawasan
bersih bagi kehidupan cicitnya,
dituntutnya usah
dungu mencemari rimba
yang tak akan dapat lagi
subur menyegari buminya
tanpa sedia bermaruah,
beratus tahun, merancangnya.
THE DEAD CROW
He saw a dead crow
in a drain
near the post office.
He saw an old man
gasping for air
and a baby barely able to breathe
in a crowded morning clinic.
This land is so rich.
Why should we suffer like this?
I want clean air
for my grandchildren.
I want the damned fools
to leave the forest alone.
I want the trees to grow,
the rivers run free,
and the earth covered with grass.
Let the politicians plan how we may live with dignity,
now and always.

i signed up for a creative writing class two weeks ago. it’s not for credit, and it’s just one of those things that students take for fun –
but i missed the first class because i was rushing a microeconomics problem set that was taking me longer than i’d expected to complete;
and then i missed the second class because i was tired out from classes and had to rest up for a longer day ahead,
and now the instructor has stopped emailing me class updates.
:(
