small favours

i hv to write abt 2 things today.

last wed after kbc, i spoke to lub for about an hour on the phone. at the end of the conversation, she said i should seriously consider asking for a transfer. she said that her heart palpitated and it was that bad. today, i got a gift from her, through her sister - the oprha winfrey show (20th anniversary collection). the stories are incredible. as soon as i started to cry, i sms-ed lub and thanked her for the wonderful gift

it's not the gift that i m writing about, it's the thought behind it. i hv such a dear friend i should really be very thankful for. i am going to have such a great time savouring the show, and a great friend to last forever.

the 2nd thing is a bit silly. this evening i called 3 banks to ask for waiver of late charges. in the midst of all the may day fun and excitment (and perhaps a bit of work stress), i totally forgot to pay my bills, all 3 of them. all banks waived it, and kindly they did for this is not the first time in recent months! the lady from citibank even did it even before i asked for it to be waived. she said it was within her limit and she thought i could have overlooked. such a dear. she should know that she has made someone delighted today. i thank her very much.

time to wind down for the evening...
