My weekend extravaganza...

I finished reading "My name is Sei Shonagon" on Friday nite...i was a bit shocked with the ending...

On Saturday nite, i had a quick dinner at Sushi Train...really so that i could have their green tea ice cream! Then i went to Sheraton on the Park to try out the Dessert Buffet (M went and told me about it. i craved for some sugar...so i went!) I really should have tried the Dinner Buffet...im not much of a seafood eater, but the whole lobsters they were serving smelt yum...and looked yum...it must have tasted yum, cos the people around us ate as much of it as they could!

After the Dessert Buffet, i went to the Sydney Observatory for a nite tour...it made me realise that i havent seen any stars for a very long while. Nothing clearly in the sky, maybe one speck or two...so it was great to look through a telescope and look at the Southern Cross with the two Pointers to the right of it...it was good to see other constellations in all their glory, as well.

According to the guide, she said that Sydney is soo lit up by the artificial lights that you would have to travel further than Bathurst to actually see the real stars in the sky! (With the naked eye, that is.) But she also suggested that one nite in Summer, that you throw a blanket or rug and grab your binoculars or telescope and look up to the sky...see the stars and look at the moon and see the craters on it...*sigh*...how romantic...

;)

I cant remember the last time i laid on the ground looking up at the sky, to even look at the clouds up there during the day.

On Sunday, i painted my second picture...i didnt quite get into that "creative zone" and in my opinion...the picture could have been better...but my emotions werent in turmoil, or was i more sullen than passionate? My creative zone occurs when my emotions are boiling...i block out the rest of the world and have this grounded focus...and i paint the way i feel...and you dont always get that feeling!

I guess, its not necessary to paint every week...creativity doesnt happen on-call.

I watched Bourne Supremacy with him on Sunday nite...i enjoyed the movie...and enjoyed his company...i just wished we did something that enabled more dialogue between us...communication is critical, but im just not getting enough of it! This lack of dialogue makes me feel terrible and in the moments of silence, me head starts to convince my heart not to feel too much...if anything, it tries to switch my heart off!
