:: celebrity watch... instant fail! ::

Just to prove that I really don't watch television at all these days, on Saturday I was working at the newsagents and this boy walks in and buys a packet of chewies, and the entire time I'm conducting this little transaction, Pam is elbowing me and making meaningful faces, so I looked around the shop to see whether anyone famous had walked in, and after the boy leaves, Pam explodes "That guy is on Home & Away, and he was on Dancing With The Stars!"

She mused that he was probably in Melbourne to see the tennis. (I also don't get tennis.)

I'm so clueless when it comes to celebrities walking in to the store -_-"

..okay, so browsing around on the Home & Away site, seems Pam was telling the truth - the kid really was someone she'd seen on tv >_< Someone named Bobby Morley..?

..music and cats.. the not-terribly-eventful life of Caro.

isn't it sad when the big excitement of the day is that i found out the name of some obscure cantonese song that has been living, uncredited, in my head and insisting that it is my favourite cantopop song of all time, for four years or so. (or whenever it was that Carrie used to lend me unnamed MDs of her canto/jap/koreapop collection.)

well, now i know. the song i love is "最佳位置", by Kelly Chen.

i found the lyrics, but once again my inability to read causes much difficulty in understanding what kind of song i have chosen to love.. i'm fervently hoping it isn't some form of break-up song, since it turns out i have an uncanny knack for choosing those as my favourite things to sing.. despite not knowing the meaning of the words.

陳慧琳 - 最佳位置

我也數過　排著隊等討好你有幾個

還未有新空缺　來容納我

正選只得一個　後選經已太多

我細心想過　停在今天這一處也不錯

越過知己的親密　然而未有擁吻過

共你這麼的曖昧　已得到甚多

＊無論你喜歡誰　請你記住留下給我這位置

　時常在內心一隅　空出幾吋為我堅持

　同渡半生　亦有張椅子

　是否愛還是其次＊

只想你依然　亦想得起我不是　任你處置

女友一走過　鄰坐空位都可以坐一坐

若你珍惜我　不如從來沒有愛戀過

互有好感的尊重　更加可貴麼

比不上戀人　但廝守一輩子

無論你喜歡誰　請你繼續留下身邊這個位置

時常在內心一隅　剩低幾吋　留給這女子

誰共你好　都不礙事　我都會　衷心支持

未必所有關係　亦受得起刺激　但我可以

虔誠地　熱戀一輩子

共你也許　真的不容易

喜歡你　最好不要講　安守這位置

..now that i know the name of the song, i can buy the cd to listen to ^-^

Monday 14th January

I've been wistfully dreaming of a cat i saw at the Burwood RSPCA yesterday afternoon... I want to take her home!!

She's 5 years old and is a rather placid (but talkative!) black and orange domestic longhair tabby, with gorgeous soft fur and green eyes and a very sweet "meow".

Mum couldn't drag me from her enclosure. I kept wanting to go back.

Oh, sure, there are younger cats, and cuter cats (there was a darling gentle little ginger-white patchy tom in her enclosure as well) but she was the one I wanted to take home with me..

T-T ..my brother has promised to sneak back and buy her, but I'm fairly sure that on the off chance he did, Mother Dearest would hit the roof and send kitty back..

..Aw, man. I really want that cat.
