Trailing Da Vinci
20th April 2006, Thursday
Just a short quip today...
My lass called me using a international call card yesterday just after her lunch hours within her work vicinity which means dinner time over in Singapore.
2nd day into her work, I guess she is getting used to how the system works and the culture. She mentioned that her company lunch menu is something I would fall for and I am salivating over the thought of authentic Italian cuisine such as pasta or lasagna been served.
With the amount of cheese they addes, there would always be the fear of gaining extra pounds which is blasphemous with the wedding just around the corner.
Fortunately she had a gym within her apartment building to let her burn off some unwanted calories.
She mentioned that with the premiering of the blockbuster feature based on the bestselling Dan Brown's novel, "The Da Vinci Code", being the country where Da Vinci is from, the Italian authorities have been gussing up the streets of Milan to laureate their prodigal son, the famous artist known as Leonardo Da Vinci with some of his famous art pieces or related doucments or replicas been put on display...And it was raining when she and her friends were there to view it, so she only managed to take the behind of a sculpture of I presumed is his "Renaissance Man".
She also mentioned she is put in charge of one of trhe company's car thus she would have to drive some of her male colleagues to work in their Fiat Fiesta which she found quite easily to handle since the gear system is automatic. However in the land where parallel parking reigns, she just had to refresh her practical lessons or enlist the help from colleagues who have better driving skill or simply find a larger parking space to manuveur.
With the car, her group had contemplated of travelling to neighbouring European cities and this weekend, their destination would be Germany and she informed me that she would be calling me by then...just hope they have a safe driver at the helms...
Yikes, I have became so paranoid out of the sudden...

Japanese word of the day: パラノイア ~pa-ra-no-i-a~(Paranoid) You would be when you have someone so dear to your heart thousand of miles away...
