When I have a helium balloon with me, I usually twirl it like 6428169 times around my hand so it won't accidentally fly away from me.
Hey yeaa..sounds like love to me..I usually find it hard to let go off a girl once I really love her and want to keep her to me and not wanting to lose her
Oh well..=(

artificially : i am lucky - my first experience is this balloon experience. im glad it wasnt anything bigger, even if it was a very nice balloon. arriving tomorrow ard 3-4pm. will give u a call!
kenji : i watched it at a special screening :) it's out next week
alea : may we all be able to hang on to our balloons.. :)
confused neanderthal male : well, you're not so confused after all!
bs : i fear i will one day do that. lose it on purpose then cry at night. which is worse, losing it accidentally or on purpose, then regretting it?
kevin : hehe i guess we treat our balloons very differently. but we can learn from each other!
joe : why thank u :) food is always a good thing to write abt.

i loveee helium balloons... i especially love filling up a room with them... with all of them on the ceiling with their strings hanging down... beautiful.. until they all fall to the ground the next morning.

i should be at the Cammies...i was last year, so if my konco-konco wanna go again, i'll be there.
sad that both men and women compete in the same category. PGL is going to clean house - AC deserves the honour and I hope he wins, but its sad because i wanted fair competition for Suki and Joanna - both were splendid.
see you there, i hope :)

This reminds me of the last helium balloon I had was when I was in my mother's school (tagging along to where she taught).
Then I accidentally let go of it in the staffroom.
Being small and cute at that time I even managed to get one of the teachers there to climb onto the table to get the balloon down for me.
I was so happy I walked outside, forgot about it, and spent a good 5 minutes watching it disappear into the sky. I must have looked like a little kid waiting for bird shit to fall on my face.
There is something poetic about helium balloons.
Perhaps you didn't let go of the balloon; perhaps the open sky was too enticing for it.
Anywaaay. I may go and watch Mukhsin when they start showing it in 1U yay

Look at it this way, if it hadn't have slipped from your fingers, you wouldn't know how much you really like the balloon. Next time, don't let it slip away again. Lesson learnt. =)

You know, your short stories never fail to awe me... A simple story and yet so full of thought... I think this could qualify as a literature piece taught to Secondary students...

by the way, if you didn't know.. the balloons will soon run out of helium and drop into the sea and turtles might accidentally eat them. so becareful with your helium balloons the next time =)

I remember losing a yellow helium balloon for the very first time. my mum and i were at a carnival fair and i untied my balloon from my wrist not knowing how fast they tend to fly from your fingers. It shot up exactly the way you described. :(
It's such a hollow feeling, losing a balloon.

I think the more hold we have towards something, the more we tempt and tease ourselves with losing it.
To be able to afford to do such a thing shows you have power over the balloon.
