I think i have abandoned my blog halfway somehow........ after not blogging for almost 2 weeks i must say?? Been so damn busy, no time to rest sometimes or either that, have absolutely no mood to blog. Anyway, i will write as much as i can remember...........
Have a brand new phone, Sony Ericsson K750i. Bought it after feeling so sianz and stressed from work and considering that i have not shopped much as well. Work has taken up the bulk of my time, not been going to the gym and i know i have not been eating properly as well. Sometimes, i wonder if this shows the amount of energy and passion one is willing to go through for the sake of the love of their job. Erm....... did i say that correctly? Anyway, i have thought out some changes that i might wanna implement in my life. Do something different and maybe take on a different path in life.
Went hari raya visiting with my usual Longang/Ah Long Gang bunch......... I cant explain how exhausting it can be, just going to friend's houses, sitting, nua-ing, eating, drinking, yakking and bitching!!! I started off the day by going to Safra Mount Faber to pass a Plan to a client as my boss had some changes to her schedule the day before and it involved me doing a half Amazing=Race-style running around the whole of Singapore. Anyway, after i was done with my work related stuff, i met up with Susie at Holland V. Think i was lacking in sleep the night before as well, so i was very lethargic and i wanted to take a cab down to Holland V (where his office is) from Tanjong Katong! But i backfired, because no cab driver stopped for me so i hopped onto Bus 7 and hoped that i wouldnt faint from hunger in the bus.
When i got to Holland V (decked out in my late grandma's 100% Genuine Nonya Kebaya..... wahahahah!) i met him at Bunalun......... This super high class posh looking store selling organic food. There, both of us decided to buy Ah Zai some nuts. As a gift for inviting us to his house for Hari Raya lar. I insisted on getting Hazelnuts for him while Susie thought that Ah Zai liked Almonds better! So after the 2 squirrels squabbled in front of the nut section for a long time, (the waiter even came over to ask if we needed help!) we decided to get something totally different - which was dried apple peels. I think anyway. After that purchase, Susie decided to go back to his office to change into his baju and i was scolding him all the way back to his office (which was actually only about 20 steps away from Bunalun). After he changed, i had a sudden craving for the XO fish soup at the other end of Holland V so despite me being super hungry and feeling faint.
So the 2 squirrels walked over to the famous XO fish soup store and to my disappointment, the store had just closed! (it was 2.30pm) and they had just taken their last order!! Once again, i had to scold Susie for insisting on changing before eating. After our lunch, we took the train to Ah Zai's house............ When we got to Jurong East Interchange, i decided to sms Ah Zai.
"The 2 squirrels are at Jurong west now. On the train to your place... See you soon!"
"What the hell are you 2 doing at Jurong West?? Ok, Im making myself more beautiful now..."
"It's ok. We have seen the worst of you already. - Susie. You can throw yourself onto oncoming traffic then dun need make up! - dee."
"Hahahahah! Guess what? The door will be locked when you arrive! So exciting....."
"It's ok. We are squirrels. we can climb through the window. We are very agile creatures. Remember?"
Its so fun and comforting to know that friends can insult each other like that and get away with it. Luckily, when we got to his place, his front door was wide open. So we breezed our way through. After the rest of the gang appeared, the food for the guests appeared!! Apparently from downstairs. (his auntie's flat i think) There was mee siam (without the usual sauce with it) and fried chicken wings. Which were.......... absolutely tasty!!! As it already is, i love eating mee siam without the sauce, just the noodles like that and i was so happy. The chicken wings were so good that all of us were fighting to get the last few chicken wings left! That poor Ah Zai didnt get a chance to even take one piece! I think he will never survive if he was a wild animal. Anyway, i commented to him that if i were him, i will be super fat by now because of the delicious food that he can get to eat EVERYDAY!! but dunno why he so skinny le........
So after Ah Zai's house, we trotted off (ok la, drove) to Gaz's house in Pasir Ris. Took Miss What's car with Gaz, Ah Zai and of course Miss What. I am a total loser in Pasir Ris area and i had absolutely no idea where i was and i kept trying to snooze for a while in the car but Ah Zai refused to let me! Anyway, when we got to Gaz's house, we watched Siti Nuraliza Live in Royal Albert Hall till it was time for us to eat........ again! Yes, the purpose of us going to each other's houses were to eat eat eat eat eat. Had this interesting bean like sauce/gravy and you are supposed to eat it with egg and bread! So breakfast and so nice! It was so sweet of Gaz's mum to cook a special plate for me because i was the only one who didnt eat beef! All of us were so scared that Ah Zai was allergic to that particular bean (that was used in the sauce/gravy) but luckily he is allegric to another type! So scary.......
Our next stop was Farharna's house (also in Pasir Ris, infact, just a few blocks away). Farharna was our classmate for a while in Yr 2 until she had to stop school because of health problems. I was pleasantly surprised to see a Garfield like cat the moment i stepped into her house!
Both Don and i screamed, "Ah!! Look at Garfield!!" (Actually, the name of that Garfield looking cat is called Brownies)
As usual, we talk talk talk talk and off to eat again!! By then, all of us felt like we were going to burst at our kebayas/bajus. Once again, there was some beef dish and it looked really nice! So we continued our chatting session and playing with her cats! One of her cats which is really really gorgeous was sitting under the sofa that Gaz was sitting on and it costs $1200 when they bought her! Wow!!! But her coat was so soft and so pretty............ Wanted to cat nap it home too......
Last but not least. was Si-ham aka Mr Sarcastic's place. I was exhausted by the time i reached his house and i was practically glued to his living room's floor horizontally. Could hardly eat anymore by the time i got there and i just kept staring at this pile of nuggets i dunno why. Must be too full already. So just see the food without eating it lor.
I think im getting old already. Cant blog for more than half an hour without feeling too tired. As usual, hope to blog tomorrow about that day when i realised that there was no more food for my chinchillas! And i had to look for food for them. Haha!
