Oops, I did it again
My life has just gotten extra complicated, which I really didn't need (I do a good enough job of complicating it all by myself without any help, thank you very much).
So as an outlet, what did I do? I watched Phantom of the Opera again. For the THIRD time. Hah.
I've been listening to the soundtrack CD anyway, so I've got the songs stuck in my head, and I finally figured out why I like "All I Ask Of You" so much. Coz it portrays Raoul (the love interest) as a protector, which greatly appeals to my femininity. Feminists the world over are even now gasping in horror ;)
But seriously. Most women dream of a man who's strong enough to protect them, yet with a core of tenderness to cherish them. I'm no different. Plus as a single I have to be independent all the time and handle everything all by myself, and occasionally I just wish I could lean on somebody for a wee while or have somebody take care of things for me, you know?
Of course, if I weren't single I couldn't just go off to, oh, Bangkok, for example, without worrying about a-hundred-and-one things and first juggling a great deal of responsibilities to husband and family. That's my obscure way of saying I'm flying to Bangkok on Saturday for a working trip... footloose and fancy-free!
