my bridget jones moment
--
i finally rented myself a copy of Bridget Jones Diary last night ( sundays are rest days ) and i LOVED IT !
i'm so into romantic comedies now.. whatever happened to the i-fucking-hate-mainstream-and-soppy-fluffy-dialogues movie buff !?!
so anyway. i had a Bridget Jones moment this morning on my way to work.
you know how sometimes there's a couple with hands entwined walking in your direction before you can quickly shove your ass aside and the moment when they have to ( very reluctantly ) untangle themselves so that they can make way for you?
i don't know why but i seem to share an affinity with the abovementioned situation.
and today it got a little more dramatic. just listen.
so there was this young happy lost-in-your-eyes couple with hooked pinkies ( now who the fuck holds pinkies ?! NO ONE ! okay.. i'm being bitter here ) just a few steps away from me and moving at dangerous speeds. i didn't have time to siam.
i have no idea why i have celine dion in my Ipod but there she was, yodelling her heart out.
and just as they unlatched their pinkies, they looked at each other with longing ( i swear ) and then simultanously giving me a pissed off look as i crossed their canal of everlasting love, celine dion just had to go
"ALL BY MYSELF.. DON'T WANNA BE.. ALL BY MYSELF!!!"
that moment was so sibei dramatic i tell you man. i almost laughed out loud at the sheer absurdity of it all. like what are the odds ?!
( all by myself is the theme song of bridget jones' diary )
damn fucking funny yet pathetic.
i sound like some teenybopper in this post.
wait. i AM a teenybopper :)
