I had initially penned a draft.. Which was meant to be short.. But it was near impossible.. It just got longer and longer.. And more and more ugly. I meant every word of it, and more. But I think I’ve finally sorted my thoughts out this time. I will not sweat the small stuff anymore. Just awhile back, it seemed like a big thing.. But now I know it’s small, simply because if people can’t be bothered, then I shall be the same. So I’m gonna spare everyone the fakery and hypocrisy. It got too tiring, and through much advice from well meaning friends, I realise there’s no point putting myself through it all anymore. How little I mean to you, will be how little you mean to me. I’ve done my part in taking the first step, but that’s that. It’s like a tumor. And I know what will cure me - be around people who truly love me. I guess these people are easier for me to love in return, and I know these people will make me a much happier person. And once I had my thoughts sorted out, I saw the sign. A beautiful rainbow on Wednesday, and a picturesque sunset on Thursday. Picture courtesy of Jes. The picture of the rainbow didn't do it any justice at all and we missed the egg yolk of a sunset by a second as we were on the roads.
Wednesday was a nice quiet nite at Xin Wang, followed by watching Milk. After Brokeback Mountain and Milk, I think I’m much more comfortable watching men suck faces with each other now. Haha.
Thursday was Jes’s pre-birthday celebration at Ricciotti. Mandy has raved about this place for the longest time but I never got down to going there. Until now. And it did not disappoint. Nice place, glorious food, finger-licking desserts, great service, and wonderful company. I brought truffles for my girls but I think it may have spoilt or melted after being out of the cold for so many hours. Haha. And the 3 of us are such geniuses that we forgot to take a picture together.
The bird-day girl~
Friday, while chatting with Mandy dear on MSN, the topic veered to food. We had planned early last week to go XDL this week.. But it came to a point we were so caught up in the topic that we were so damn gian for it. So we called the guys, got the thumbs up, and it was set that we’ll have XDL earlier than expected. Haha. So once it was XDL supper time, we got ourselves outdoor smoking seats and we whacked the food. The guys ate so much meat it was insane. I’m glad tubs and James get along famously. It’s nice when one of your closest friend’s BF and your own have so much in common and enjoy each other’s company (even though they can get kinda annoying to a certain extent cos after awhile, they forget where their allegiance lie and they end up ganging up against their own GFs. Grow up! Haha).
Anyway, let me digress abit. I found somewhere I can’t wait to bring my lovelies to. But it’s a little pricy but I think just the place, the view, the privacy and the ambience is worth every cent of it. And they are known for their food as well. So it can’t go wrong can it? Hur hur. So dears, let me know when everyone wants to meet up again yah.
Saturday, went for NATAS to look see since tubs got us free passes.
Met up with Mandy dear for awhile since she was working there and there seemed to be pretty good deals around but nothing could beat another offer I got from my babe. *winks* I’m crossing my fingers very tightly! After NATAS, tubs and I headed to Mellben for crab bee hoon. I love the crab bee hoon there to death! Yummers~ Following that, we headed down for Jes’s birthday celebration Part 2 at Boozee. Tubs was driver so I could drink Martell til my heart’s content. It’s silly to celebrate a birthday at a pub cos the birthday girl never walks out straight. Haha. But I hope my dear girl had fun. Love you girl!
Sunday afternoon, tubs and I went to Lawrence’s daughter’s 1 month old celebration. Some babies at 1 month are really not very cute cos their features aren’t very defined yet and they still look kinda ‘raw’ and are oways sleeping but this girl is so cute lah. She smiles at the slightest things and is so pretty at such a young age.

It's a brand new week once again. I can't wait to meet my Jes darling later!
