Dear Monsieur Anonyme, I’m sorry!

Friday, July 31st, 2009 by Kiyu

Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! I can’t possibly keep this to myself, this has to be shared! Do you guys remember the post I wrote about true gentlemen being extinct a few days ago? Well, keep that in mind when you read the rest of this post!

I checked the mailbox yesterday just before heading off to ML to watch a movie – and I discovered two letters addressed to me; one was a standard, boring one from my bank, but the other one really caught my attention.

Sorry, had to blur my address — showing my full name is bad enough!

The envelope was made from a pretty textured paper with a lovely cream color with my full name and address typed on it by one of those old, vintage typewriters they had during WWII. We all agreed the typewriting was such a wonderful detail.

I first thought it was a formal invitation to something important, because;

  1. Only public institutions would print my name on an envelope
  2. I didn’t know anyone who was getting married

But it still seemed weird to me that any public institution would invite me to anything as grand and formal as the pretty envelope spoke of. My second thought was that this was yet another attempt from some organization who would like me to support their cause. Little did I know how far off I was. I gently opened the envelope, and inside I found this:

Alright, so I royalty screwed up on the P.S: Tell no one part — but did he honestly think I was going to keep this to myself when he signed it as Monsieur Anonyme? I would have have to shut up about it if it was actually signed by name, because then I would have to consider his embarrassment of being ‘humiliated’ (what humiliation?!), but as I see it right now — no harm will come to anyone since I don’t have a clue of who this could be!

I have eliminated most of my guy friends by asking them directly, and most of them just got upset and offended that I would even think that they would make such silly grammar errors. Which I must agree, all my guy friends are really good at English.

But heavens, how exciting this is! And not to mention; how incredible romantic! ..and creepy. Well, right now I choose to ignore the creepy part. No need to destroy my happy bubble! I’ll just deal with the dangerous part this could indicate to, later. This is just unbelievable. Incredible. This stuff only happens in movies, damnit! Not in real life! At least not in my life! But gosh, this is so funny! How’s it, Anna? Perhaps my life really is a fairy tale!

Monsieur Anonyme, you have no idea how happy you made me. This better not be a really bad prank you’re pulling off on me! ‘Cause then I’ll hunt ya down and kick yer butt! Believe me, I may be small in size, but I haven’t been made leader of most projects for nothing!

I expect to hear from you again!

P.S. My analyzing instincts are kicking in! You know, after the double up of analyzes with me taking eng. lit. class as well, I’ve already pretty much over-analyzed this letter. Especially the last line.

My own Romantic Age

Saturday, May 30th, 2009 by Kiyu


My backyard at the moment. Thought I’d let you see! I wanted to create this peaceful, romantic haven under the blooming apple trees in the backyard where I could dawdle on with my own business in blissfull ignorance of the world (no-one in our house can be bothered to enter the backyard). You see the book? It’s leatherbound with blank pages, which I intend to fill with written treasures I find as my life goes on. When it’s old and I am too, I shall pass it on to my children as a keepsake. Or bury it under a tree as Phuc so vigorously suggested. I have to admit, it’s a very romantic idea!

I originally wanted a handmade, ancient-looking, leatherbound journal, like the ones I found on etsy:

etsy-pictures-14-190
etsy-pictures-9-155
il_430xn69514447
il_430xn65274366



But Bao talked me out of it due to the not very wallet-friendly prices… I’ll have to get my hands on one of those handmade ones someday; someday when I’m not in the middle of my own financial crisis!

Or perhaps I will make my own.
