(no subject)
I just saw a glimpse of the last few weeks of my life passing with the utmost lack of anything virtually on the same level as 'INTERESTING' or 'FUN' or 'PLEASURABLE'. This is what I've been burdened with for approximately 2 months; burdened because it's a necessity, not something I thoroughly enjoy doing. In order for me to make it to that Qantas flight on that i-can-already-predict-that-it's-gonna-be-extremely eventful day, I HAVE TO push myself out of my bed, take a min-long shower when I'd actually want to be sitting in the tub having a really good, steaming bath, put on some decent clothes, do hair and makeup [in short], grab something to eat and leave the house in a frenzy. I figured not all work is like what I'm experiencing right now, it doesn't always get so monotonous and bleh, you know?
But then again.....
actually....
now that I think of it.....
forget bleh, I KNOW I'm gonna have the best weeks ahead that I can imagine because MUTIARA is landing tomorrow at 9.45pm from Sydney, Neha's coming on 14th June from Melbourne, Casey's coming down for a few days in less than 2 weeks on his transit to america and Adrienne, Suzanne and Vivienne are expected back in sunny singapuke from their respective alien residency sometime this summer holidays. Eden was in town for a few weeks, I got the chance to catch up with her and some of them from CHIJ Toa Payoh secondary graduating batch of 2002, namely Ren Hui, Clare, Gen, Bela, Jasmine and Yi Yan. I almost forgot how fun IJ reunions can get, coz it's just as silly as it got when we were in school. I told Eden, Gen and Ren when I got to the Clarke Quay station, " I knew where to find you guys coz the IJ girls would be the only ones sitting on the floor and waiting for the rest to join the group before heading out.' ;) I think that's genius haha. We went for dinner at the Riverside Indonesian Restaurant, had a mean buffet meal, a drink at The Rupee Room [how tragic that experience was] and then back home to the routine of work-life. The days used to be too long and the nights too short, but as of now the days are dangerously too short, and the nights pass slow and in-your-face. I haven't had a proper night out in less than 3 weeks, and all the money that's accumulating at work is strictly untouchable, reserved till the 12th of June, when I presume that every single cent of that hard earned cash would go into the issuing of the air ticket. Except the really great deal that i got for the Lancome mascara Hypnose and L'extreme Duo for $58.80 from Sats, where I work. Not bad in that sense.
AFTER the 12th of June on another note tho, I can only imagine me with a smile on my face. Nothing else. Lesser working days, more time spent on people and things that don't make me yawn and snore. Can't wait, can't wait.
