That's what I am up to last week

I am really living by the moments. Figured that life is too short to be worrying and getting upset about things that are beyond control. So instead I have learnt to cherish every moment. Life is greater and happier without hope or expectation. As such, whatever happened is a bonus and not by default.

Hence, I have been extremely grateful and happy that I have unexpected holidays weeks after weeks. Now I have another week of holidays after a fulfilling 2 weeks of holidays meeting up with all my friends. I realized I am a real social animal. I just have countless friends to meet and catch up with. A week schedule filled up within one afternoon. Therefore I conclude that I am pretty prepared for a life of tai tai as I have enough friends to go around with to keep myself busy and occupied. Definitely beyond satisfaction and happiness. Pure Bliss.

My last week was basically to spend quality time with Puree. We were kinda inseperable. Every moment was memorable and cherishable. That really made my days or even weeks. I am so going to miss u when you leave mama.

I also met up with a guy friend who just came back from his numerous holidays. He went Shanghai, Aussie, then Beijing, Guangzhuo, then Africa then Hongkong. So envious of him. To make up for missing from my photoshoot day, he met up with me the next day after he touched down to share his travelling stories with me and to show me all his photos (even before he shares them with his gf who is apparently busy). It is nice to know how he is so eager to share with me all his happy moments. It was nice listening to all his interesting and funny stories while enjoying my lunch at Mamalade Pantry on Thursday afternoon. It was even more heartwarming when he told me he bought me a present. Even though he forgot to pass me, it is the thought that he actually remembers me while he is on a holiday that matter most to me. That really kept me extremely happy. See? I am really easily satisfied. (DISCLAIMER: Dont be mistaken that he has something for me cos I am dead sure he isnt. I am definitely not in a state of denial either cos he has a real steady gf of 6 years.)

Moreover, many things are really keeping me happy. Just like this unexpected secondary school classmates gathering on last Tuesday. It was pretty sad to know only 4 of us turn up despite the fact that it has been at least 2-3 years since we last met up and to know that last time our clique consists of at least 15-18 people. Nonetheless, I am still grateful that they show up esp it was organized within such a short notice. It is even more wonderful I dont have to take initiative to ask people out. (I hate asking people out. I am very passive when it comes to that.) Thanks for giving me face by gracing the gathering since Sybil uses my name to organize this. She smsed everyone "I am organizing a gathering for meimei. So better give face and turn up!" Apparently, everyone has grown out of fearing meimei phase so u could see how big my face is now. hahahaha....


The night was short but it was cool to catch up. We had dinner at Raffles City Sushi Tei then went to explore PS cafe at Dempsy Road. Shall update more on the restaurant later.

It was funny how we were discussing about crooked people since Sybil is in the arts industry where 90% of the people are not straight and the straight people are ugly. Also, it wasnt very funny when Sybil admitting it aloud that she swings both ways. Not funny lo! Just want to scare me only. Apparently, whenever she said that my hair stands. EEKS!

It has been really wonderful weeks. It is nicer than having a holiday getaway in foreign countries.
