was at psle marking last week. must say it was the most hectic one i’ve been to. luckily, met some frens whom i havent seen in years. strangely, no one commented i grew fatter. maybe, i did shed some pounds after all. must be the fasting.
during lunch one day, a fine lady reading a mag caught my attention. it wasnt her but rather the young parents mag interested me more. i wonder when i will start to that kind of stuff. something not working right, i suppose. after more than 2 yrs, pressure is mounting on wifey n me to produce mini-mes. keep telling myself the day will come .
back to the lady. she was so engrossed in reading. reminds me of the 1st mag i ever read. RADIO N TV TIMES. local publication. A5 sized like those exercise books pupil use in school. i was so amazed at all tv listings they have. think it was replaced by the more hip 8 days. always trying to find out wat the eighth day means.
at the same time, i was reading URTV n MEDIA Hiburan. m’sian published. all the juicy gossips bout the malay pop industry. btw, i dont buy those. read them during my weekly visits to my aunt’s place. also, smash hits. pics of all those teenage icons splashing across the pages. nkotb..take that…
in sec sch, the gals in my class always have teens or teenage mags with them. quite interesting read i must say. learn a thing or 2. wifey used to buy cleo, her world n go mags. sometimes, she would get me to grab those mags b4 gg to her place.
fhm was a fave during ns. was rather disappointed when they had stopped publication after 6 issues. but they came with fhm singapore. i dont any diff tho. scootering mag was another fave. been reading all the years i rode on a vespa. tt wld be 5 yrs.
then bridal mags. actually, she did all the reading. i was juz flipping thru pretending to be interested. thank god no more wedding for me.
home decor mags next. always envy those pple with nice aprtments. well, i love my place. it may not be big or furnished expensively but it is mine. oops ours.
nowadays i juz buy car mags. looking at mods tt i cant afford. can be depressing some time
been waiting for the time to buy parenting mags. may it come soon.
