If you post-it, it will come


A few weeks ago, my friends MC and TS had lunch over at my place and got to talking about the “drawings” that they had made in the past which later turned into realities. During that lunch, halfway between believer and skeptic, I kept making light jokes saying I will cut out a picture of Brad Pitt because THAT is what I want.

The following Wednesday after that lunch, as I was walking to my bus stop from choir rehearsal, I found myself walking towards a huge poster that hung outside the Singapore National Museum like a moth to a flame. My jaw dropped. Standing in the rain clad in only clingy white boxer shorts was a poster of Brad Pitt – headlining the Singapore photography exhibit of Robert Wilson that runs in November 08.

Inspired by a boxer-shorts-clad Brad, I stuck three post-it notes on the wall facing my office desk at home saying (1) I will go to London, (2) Massage scalp (because I’m beginning to lose hair), and (3) I will find Love.

This was a couple of weeks ago. And since then:
(1) I’ve recently met and dated a guy from London;
(2) I have high hopes that the scalp massages will work, and
(3) Too early to tell. But just a few hours ago, London guy just asked if I want to continue dating….

And I said yes.

I’m keeping these post-it’s on.

interestingly enough, when i did this, they somehow came true. a few months ago, drew about my what i wanted from a future job 1) annual salary - close enoough, kaya lang in SGD not in USD coz I just out a dollar sign and not the currency name (duh! note to self for next time) 2) an office - i do have one but i share with another guy; but, when in Taipei, i use my boss' corner office when he's not around 3) secretary that makes me coffee - there are admins that help me out, but they do not make coffee, however, there are coffee machines in the office that make decent cups. pwede na rin i guess. i'm waiting to see what happens with two other things i drew . . .
