Last nite’s XDL with my bitches was not satisfying at all. I swear I lost my kick for XDL oready. Which is good in a way whereby we won’t overstuff ourselves anymore. Haha. so what did we do once we were done at XDL? We hopped over to Ah Chew’s for dessert. And that was the killer. I had mango sago with pomelo and it was so thick that we had difficulty finishing it. Called home, wanting to buy some dessert back, and the mother told me she had bought dessert for me and it was in the fridge –faints-
We were really good girls yesterday though. We weren’t tempted to go shopping after dinner. We went home straight away after Ah Chew’s. I was feeling very sleepy while watching TV but I just couldn’t stop watching. I watched the Ch8 show, then I watched American Idol and even though I don’t think they were that good yesterday, I loved the Andrew Lloyd Webber theme. I think he’s simply ingenious and one of those people whom really deserves some credit. It comes as no surprise that out of all the musicals I’ve attended, it is his musicals that tops my list. And I still insist that those who says that people who watches musicals are arty farty are only saying that bcos they haven’t watched a good musical themselves. Cos I don’t see how anybody can NOT like it. I wonder what’s the next musical that’s coming to town. Another musical I would pay to watch a second time is Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. I loved it to bits and even up to now, I listen to the songs occasionally and I can still recall the musical even though it’s been such a long time since I last watched it. I think he has the ability to really evoke feelings from his songs. But then again, that’s what theatre is really about.
Anyway, while taking a smoke downstairs last nite before I went to bed, there was a woman trying to catch her dog and it went on for the longest time ever. I wanted to help her catch her damn dog but I think I saw the dog bite her so I decided to mind my own business. Her dog is a real terror. But why she didn’t leash it up in the first place, I have no idea. But I gotta say the dog is real smart too. He would start running only when she nearly catches it. If not, it’ll just wander around normally. And when she catches it, it’ll snarl and bite her so she has to let it go again. Pretty hilarious stuff but I feel for the poor woman. She was so flustered and yet so patient with the dog. At one point of time, she even tried using reverse psychology on the dog. It did not work at all lor. I nearly laughed out loud. She called the dog to get its attention and pretended to walk off, hoping the dog would follow her. But once she turned her back to pretend to walk off, the little ingrate ran away and she panicked and ran after the dog. I think she can spend the entire nite running after her dog in the estate.
Tubs is going to come steal me away from the office at 4+pm later. I need the break so badly even though it’s just an hour plus before work officially ends but I’ve so much to do that I’ve been staying late so often. I know everyone is telling me to stop killing myself over work and that it’s not worth all the stress and long hours but I have to do what I have to do lah. –shrugs-
