Can't help feeling like a Sunday Morning..
Wednesday, June 4, 2008
The following events took place last Sunday. I'm way behind on all my posts. D:
It's been a while since the the few of us ex-councillors have gone out, so taking advantage of the holidays, we squeezed in an evening. There wasn't much need to warm up to them, despite the distance it's been since sec 4. I'm lucky to have Niki and Cheryl in the same school, at least not so many of us are apart then..
We headed over to the Cathay to book tickets for Made Of Honour first, didn't intend on initially, but they preferred that over Indiana Jones. I'll be watching that tomorrow anyways, so win-win, if not for the pang of pain from my
constantly empty wallet. I really need to get a job after J1. Did I mention I
never had
any working experience at all?
Not that I'm rich enough to sustain myself, cuz those of you who know me, I'm far from loaded. I'm not too
liberal on my spending, but not so thrifty to the point of my twin, hehe..
En route to Takashimaya after getting the tickets, at a pricey $10 each. I haven't kept count on the prices rising but it's pretty apparent. It was Xavier, myself, Zhi Wei, Cheryl, Niki and Phyu Phyu, with the rest like Haniffa and Yvonne not being able to tag along.. They felt hungry along the way so we went off to Tomato Express for the second time in a row for Xaiver and I.
The same booth as the day before with Yi Chen, Joseph, Jhin Chee and the two of us, uncanny. Then again, the outlet is pretty cramped.. With the rest in tow, we
walked the streets of town till we reached Takashimaya, in my search for this soft toy, a handphone strap.
To no avail, however, and this was a picture ripped off from the internet. I have, however, managed to find it on a online shopping blog, with the exorbitant price tag of
$15. Man these Japanese are smart, but as gay as this may sound, I think it looks really cute. ><
Cheryl and I saw it first at Sabrina's church, when a bunch of schoolkids sat in for the Mother's Day service, and several of them had it. Can't remember who directed me to Takashimaya to try and find it, but their's was a different toy. Anyways, I'm now waiting for the seller's reply..moving on..
By the time we finished looking and window shopping, we got back in time for the movie. Honestly, it had lots of connection to myself except with some variations, but in essence I could click with it. So it wasn't a waste of my $10 I guess.. Made someone realise perspectives too, and I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad. Just hoping I end up waking up on the better side of the bed some years down..
Wheelock Place, the conical roof. Dazzling, ain't it? we went around for like an hour before settling down to Diner USA, a sister restaurant of Billy Bombers. The GST alone for the dinner was a whooping $20+. It was pretty good though, and I decided to splurge or not it'd be a half hearted outing.. Until recently, I haven't felt the pinch of dining out. Didn't know why over the years the dinners out with my family decreased in frequency. Got to put priorities huh? :/ Bloody blood suckers with everything on the rise.
That's about it, we headed home after, and I squeezed in some shots before we parted ways. Not exactly glamourous to be taking in the MRT, but anywhere'd do.. Some may find a certain person in this picture really detestful, others may beg to differ.
I agree with the former.
Those alien to us in the picture, it's Xavier, me, Cheryl, Niki, Phyu Phyu and Zhi Wei.
Mmm, do I sense jealousy? Dig my handphone? :D
More pictures and posts coming up, on the tennis barbeque, stay tuned!
