11 days

My parents returned from their 11-day trip to China 3 days ago. I've had the most fulfilling week for the whole of this year (well, that pretty much tells you how brilliant this year was for me). I didn't fathom the thought of staying at home all alone wallowing in self-pity so I tried my best to keep myself occupied for the 11 days.

Saturday
Baked with Shi Hui and Jaz + Dinner with sis and Justin at like some scissors rice shop (pardon me, it's a direct translation from the Chinese form). My sister said the tarts we made sucked, well I think I may have to agree, it kinda crumbled in her hands and I didn't really want to eat it after seeing how much sugar went into it. Pains of DIY baking I guess.

Sunday
Had a h&m shopping spree sponsored by sis on that day + pedicure. All expenses paid day. It was so refreshing to shop for clothes without really sticking to basics. Bought this amazing dress which I hadn't had the chance to wear it out yet (still waiting for that pretty dinner with Chanel and friends). And we had a SGD35 brunch at Cornerstone in Bishan Park.

Had poached eggs, something I've been craving for for a really really long time. The ambiance was good (literally dining in the park), but we waited close to 45 minutes for the food, not cool. I should probably have seen it coming considering that it was a Sunday morning. Went to Chanel's in the evening, made rice balls, and boy they were good! It's funny how they tasted a whole lot better than the rice balls in Malacca, where it's supposed to be famous for rice balls.

Tuesday
Went out with my OG to supposedly East Coast on that day. But it rained, so we kinda ended up going to Cake's house. They celebrated my birthday and Ral's, but I had to leave early for training (such a killjoy). But I had fun in that however brief time spent with them!


Wednesday
Went to meet & study with Boon at Macs that day. I realise I have the attention span of a 2 year old lol, which explains why work progress is so incredibly slow. I keep pushing tuition back because I never seem to be able to finish what I set out to do. This does not bode well for next year at all.

& Thurs & Friday & Saturday (which I'm too lazy to elaborate on for my attention span has reached its limit)
but all in all, it was a good week!(:

and I find myself doing what I do best - running away
