I have always toyed with the idea writing a book not because of the numerous horrible date stories, incidents with homeless people or the various things that seem to only happen to me but because I like to think of what I would actually call it. I considered stealing the wonderful Judy Blume title Blubber because I am obsessed with weight and its just a funny word, I’ve have been considering “Off to a Rocky Start” since I have realized that most of my posts and quite frankly most of everything in my life gets off to a rocky start but I think I will go back to my favorite which I have actually gone as far as to design the cover. The title…Single Girl at the Couple’s Table (see below)
I am pretty sure you can pick me out…yup that’s me amid all the cuddly couples. I vividly remember when that picture was taken…all of the sudden the photographer’s lens appears at the end of the table and the girls to left (singing…to the left to the left, I digress) and to my right automatically cling to their BF’s and leave me in single girls no-mans land (literally). I almost took that wine glass in front of me and held it to my face so at least I was cuddling with something. Come to think of it wine does act as my confidant, protector and all around best friend sometimes..humm.. You know what though, I got to spend the rest of that weekend sleeping in the same bed as Chena (shout out) so there all you couples…who’s jealous now.Back to the book, I have even come up with some of the chapters of Single Girl.. there will be no explanation to the titles
Chapter 1
Tales of the 1am vacuum
Chapter 2 & 3
Jungle Fever
Chapter 4
Sex, Drugs and House Music ( and Caesar)
Chapter 5
Good Bye JC…Hello BK
Chapter 6 -25
Work in progress
Chapter 25
Getting to know you…happiness
Chapter 26
你好新加坡 (Hello Singapore)
And so on and so on……
So there you have it. Not that this will ever been written as this is as creative as I get (and I’m lazy) but I did buy a cat because I liked the name Mandu (Kat-Mandu) so hey, you never know.
Peace out and have a good weekend.

Please right this book to help jog my memories of Chapter 4.
That picture is so effing hilarious and sad at the same time. I'm telling you, you need to date that chick at the gym.
I am offended! I thought I was your significant other?! :)) Seriously, that picture is hilarious!!
i thought Party of One vvould be a good title for most of us single girls...
Jen... Miss you! I am so psyched your blog took off! I love blogs because they're a great way to see what's going on in some of my favorite person's lives. Hang in there woman! Keep the humor fresh and I'm looking forward to finding out what the name of the next chapter of your book of life is. The current chapters are being written right here!
Love,
Wendy
