tom jones
i listened to tom jones' sing and i felt ready to sob into my pillow, having a last cigarette in a cigarette holder, complete with fancy arched eyebrows and a slinky black dress like the ladies you see in film noir - then leaping to my death from my second storey pigeon poop ridden balcony.

phone call
having settled down into a sort of an easy calm in my own cubicle in the office ("calm" being relative to the general environment) i got a call on my mobile.
there was no number displayed, only "Call", which is reserved for overseas numbers, like from my dad, who's overseas most of the time. or evil marketeers from malaysia. or my darling boy who's been sent overseas and hadn't called for the entire week.
"could it be?" i asked myself, half excited, not wanting to get excited.
so i picked the phone up, not really wanting to be quick about it, so i can say – oh, it wasn't so bad, these three weeks. pshaw, i wouldn't mind having to go through another three – and picked up the line in two rings.
"hello?"
nothing.
"hello??"
nothing.
is the line dead or something? is there something wrong with the phone? i swear i was beginning to have the palpitations here, the butterflies in my stomach began to stir –
my throat was dry and as i was about to say again, heartfelt, "hello," –
SOME CHAINA LADY SAID IN MAINLAND CHAINESE, "hello, i'm calling from – "
click.

the most romantic man
this has got to be the most romantic man alive! found here.
35 Years Of Roses
For our 25th wedding anniversary, I started 25 days before our anniversary, with one rose and a note stating that it was 25 days to our 25th. A few days later I sent 2 roses and a note stating the number of days to 25. I repeated this procedure for 3 roses, 4 roses, and 5 roses and on our 25 anniversary a note stating my love and the final 10 roses. (1+2+3+4+5+10=25). I did the same thing for our 30th anniversary, only ending with 15 to make 30. I am in the process of doing so for our 35th coming in June this year (2004) only this time it works out to be able to send one note every 5 days up to 10 days before (with 10 roses) and the final 10 on our 35th. I am using the suggestion of one of your submitters for the final 10 to spread candy kisses in a trail to the shower, with the final note of "I have kissed the ground you walked on and showered you with flowers, how about …" and my request for 35 more years. She loves every time the roses arrive.

voice on the line
i dreamt this morning, of you; and it seems that you are, like usual, a muffled voice on the line. i remember missing you in my dream, and was so sorry when i had to hang up.
the next three weeks there will not even be a voice on the line to hold on to. how do i hold on to you?
(the non-emo me says: "with a lasso lah!")

yep, sounds about right.
the geek part, i mean. :P
What Kind of Guy Will You Fall For? | |
You would fall part for the geek. If you're looking for love, consider spending a little more time studying up in the library. To you, there's nothing more attractive than intelligence, shyness, and kindness; your future love may have four eyes and zero social skills, but he'll make up for it in brains and heart. | |
You would fall part for the gentleman. Keep an eye out for your love at your next formal or field trip to the opera. Watch out for bad boys who walk on the inside of the curb and don't hold the door for you, and you'll end up with the guy who's suave, sophisticated, and classy through-and-through. | |
