running bodies, racing minds

this is quite a bizarre weekend. instead of being busy running about, it appears my mind is doing the running instead.

need a new name for the 2nd Fierce baby -- in Chinese. ah. we tried the following ways:
1)read a lot of magazines
2)stare blankly at the tv and the words that appear on it
3)played the point-and-choose game with the dictionary. close your eyes, flip thru quickly with the left thumb, using the right thumb to point to a spot. gosh, the most insane and inappropriate words get pieced together this way
4)keep repeating the English name, hoping to get a Chinese equivalent that sounds remotely like it.

NO name yet. hahah

Mom came up with quite a number of options, but we didn't commit to any.

Other things that kept my mind running:
1)Watching the Korean drama "Lovers In Paris" and wishing i had the same luck as the female lead: suave dashing men who's got it all, and dashing to rescue me out of my poverty or unhappy life.
2)the tons of things i have to do for work
3)what i should get for an ex-tuition student who passed her Maths with flying colours
4)doing a little bit of the tons of things i have to do for work
5)thinking how stupid and inconsiderate drivers can get, just to get a slab of prata at Jalan Kayu
6)affirming to myself that that guy in blue on a motorbike with the license plate TP XXXX is a TP.
7) and realizing he's headed for my car parked on the double yellow line. DASHHHHH !!!
