my poor luck in life.

I just finished reading this book recommended by dear pal, qy.
It's called *Adrian Mole: The Wilderness Years*.

It was quite a delightful read. Not too wordy or too complicated for my understanding heh. But the real reason behind this delight is that the character is such loser? haha. he is simply hopeless. I would have died a zillion times if i were him. how can anyone live with such a erm...loserish life. pardon me for my lack of vocab. but the only word that kept crossing my mind when reading the book was "loser". he had a failed life basically. no career. no car. almost non-existent love life. or rather to be more exact, no woman likes him. and sometimes he's just such an enigma. and in the midst of all this reading, i was just thinking, am i an *Adrian Mole too? cause i pretty much have a loserish life as well. nothing turns up well for me anyway. haha. but *mole's persistance and optimism in life just makes me look at him in awe. his "sanity is like hanging on a fragile thread" (*adrian mole*) every so often, just like mine. but yet, he moves on in life, as if nothing will ever get worse, and that is just like me too! haha. that's why i've enjoyed the book. nice. :)

on yet another matter. i went to the dentist yesterday. and yeah! no decayed teeth this time. the dentist said my teeth is fine. woohoo. but later when i was paying at the counter, the nurse said, "you should fix that gap you know... not very nice. and somemore chinese belief has it that having a gap in the mouth means poor luck."

wow. that explains the poor luck all these 23 years. it's that gap in the mouth. that's it. i'm going to fix it. after the exams of course.
