thank God for days like today :)
after 4.5 hours of sleep (deprivation!!), and spending the last few hours before that getting really really confused, i was looking forward to spending time with my darlings. (by the way, i still don't understand, and don't ask me what it is that i don't understand)
i started off well: got ready by 10.10am and caught the 10.15 bus. however, my punctuality was thrown out the window when qi called. she managed to get distracted by the evil tv and was late meeting me at the city hall interchange and coz we were starving by then, grabbed some old chang kee before meeting the gang at starbucks, where we received the angry-teacher-look from siping who surrepitiously told us we were 25mins late! enquiries after the absent melvin and nicholas (nick went to the "same place" thanks to qi's sms, which was the wrong place, and melvin went to look for him), caffeine and various beverages ordered, and we were ready to get down to business but...it's a brunch, not small group! diao!
brunch was fun :) qi and i argued over who the messier eater was (me!) and also the slowest eater (me again!) and it resulted in the throwing of rubbish at each other! hehe...what maturity level?!? denise wanted to get a haircut, so she and galvin momentarily left us for supercuts, and we'll rendezvous with them at cineleisure for the movie - SPIDERMAN 3!!!
not long after their departure the rest of the gang sojourned for lunch (yes! looking for more food!!) but got sidetracked into shopping instead :) my favourite hobby!! the heeren >> qi was looking for havaianas, which turned out to be rather fruitless, she didn't like anything/couldn't make up her mind. melvin told nick (in all seriousness too!) that it's a good thing that he is now shopping with girls (aside: we're really not that bad!) so that he has some experience to which nick replied that he's been shopping with girls before. honestly nick, you don't want to go shopping with us when we're on a mission!! LOL >> saturday with qi and lsy at vivo! then we went to world of sports where the salesperson didn't take off the security tag! faint!
we met up with the rest (minus gloria phua at this point) and got our bubble tea and tickets and popcorn and drinks. and gloria phua shows up YAY!!!
i won't spoil the movie for anyone else who hasn't seen it yet but it's GOOD! i'd give it a 4 out of 5 rating :) james franco is super hot one lah can! (LOL i can't get over learning new slang haha!) and yes, i did get teary...but only a little!!
movie over, the gang split/lost each other, and qi and i enthusiastically recommended to gloria phua, lsy, shuyi, and nick into going to big o for their one-for-one cakes on weekdays from 3-6pm coz their "count chocula" is super duper fantabulous!!! but upon being seated, we discovered no promotion today! felt so played-out! so we trooped over to the coffee bean for their kids pasta but being outdoors, we decided to make our way to the indoor one on the other side of wheelock. except for the ironic fact that we couldn't find a seat inside, they also don't have a kitchen there! diew diew diew! so we went back to the other one but....no seat!!! faint! decided to just forget about it and go to paragon instead for tori q. and when we got there, lsy and i didn't feel like tori q and were still craving pasta so we psycho-ed the others into going to coffee beans. BUT WE HAD TO SIT OUTSIDE!!! FAINT FAINT FAINT!!! IT WAS SO FREAKING HOT TOO!!! and the thing that upset me the most was the fact that there was an inconsiderate guy sitting all alone at a table for six when there were several tables available more suited to his ONE!! i got really worked up (ask gloria phua!) and he had the nerve to ignore my evil glare when he saw me! i did calm down once i was fed though :D the portion was definitely smaller than the one i had at vivo but it tasted just as good! though the bread still sucked - too damn hard!! we told nick to get some as well but he was adamant not to spoil his appetite for dinner with his friends. turns out, his dinner sucked! so of course qi (and later, i) said I TOLD YOU TO EAT BEFORE RIGHT?! and, wait for it....he replied, next time i will listen to aunties. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wtf???????? calling us aunties!! faint!!
and then there were four....qi, lsy, gloria phua, yours truly.
present-hunting for my parents - next week is mother's day and daddy's birthday and my sissy and i decided on a Burberry shirt for daddy and RL top for mummy. went to Burberry at paragon, didn't have the size in the style darlings and i picked out, so went to the one at taka. originally wanted to get a Burberry top for mummy too but didn't find anything she would like so went to RL instead. i'm still a little hesitant on the pink colour though....oh well! like the guy at RL said, "good luck!" (coz i wasn't sure if it was the right size and he said i could always exchange but i told him i was sending it home to Australia and hence, good luck!).
tired and feeling sick, we decided to head home (and so i could watch the 9pm ch8 drama gloria phua was telling us about). i always dread the moment we arrive at city hall and qi and i part and the long bus ride home for me. i forgot to charge my iPod so i couldn't do anything but think about (and try to remember) the events of the night before...
i was seriously not going to blog about this but then it's bothering me and it's not like it's such a big secret anymore anyway! i'm a very selfish person. there, i've admitted it to the whole world! i don't want and can't have something but i don't want anyone having it at the same time. there are numerous valid reasons why i can't have it and only one reason why i don't want it. ok make that more than one!
but i honestly don't know what i want you to do about it either. i'm not expecting anything from you or for you to do anything about it. all i know is that i'm angry but i don't know why. it's probably just the frustration of losing control and the aggravation my emotions are putting me through. so when i say i don't know, i really don't know and not because i want to piss you off coz i know how much you hate that answer. i thought i was different, i thought you would think i'm different but i guess it's all the same old shit. don't worry, the line's been drawn. maybe in another life...i've always thought, you have to kiss a few frogs but one day my prince will come but now i know that life isn't a fairy tale and i should just wake up from this fantasy and face reality head-on!
no epiphanies today. just the cold hard truth.
