I think I can find my way.
My long weekend was pretty good. Good in the normal, ordinary, unexciting, nice, sense. ^_^
Every one of the twit gang bought grown-up womenly thingies (foundation, powder etc.) last Friday, except me. Though God knows, I was in dire need to be beautified (-how can this creature be let out on the streets!!!-). Damn horrible, horrible skin! Especially under those blemish-amplifying white lights of the make-up counters. But was possibly feeling TOO ugly, sad and tired to bother. Not to mention slightly sick... When one's down on one's luck, even nature conspires to worsen things... I didn't bring an umbrella on Friday, but it wasn't too bad as it was only a slight drizzle and for a part of the walk from office to bus stop there's a shelter. Then just as I exited the shelter to cross the road, it started pouring! And the green man took his own sweet time to come on! So, I arrived at bus stop, drenched and cold. Tell me why I wasn't surprised when the rain let up 5 minutes after. Got onto a bus to town that had appeared to take no heed of the Save Energy campaign, its air-condition on full blast. *sigh*
Thankfully, seeing the girls cheered me up some. :) We chatted as we walked around looking at bags, wallets... Then parted ways to go home early.
I was supposed to watch a horror film on tv with my sis later that night, she even went to the supermarket to get us some comfort food (read: munchies and ice-cream). But by 10-ish I was feeling pooped and decided to take a nap (the movie was due to start at 1130pm), asked my sis to wake me up when it's time. The next thing I knew, it was 530am. Think she saw I was exhausted so didn't wake me. (Either that or she wanted to have the food to herself. heehee. no lah, she not like that one. ;p)
The best part of my weekend would have to be staying over at zan's place on Sat. I went over Sat evening, had her mum's scrumptious bryani for dinner then the 2 of us sat on her King-size bed and chatted the whole night. (armed with snacks of cos'!) She said she couldn't believe how much I snack (/was that eat?)... haha... I totally binge over weekends. (bad ping! bad ping!!!) *sigh* Judging from this, it'll be long (maybe never) before I get that swimsuit figure (nice skin) I've always wanted.
She taught me some aerobics moves Sunday morning. With me flailing my arms around like a monkey gone wrong, I tried to keep up with her. ;p It was quite a good, sweaty workout.
In the afternoon, I followed her, her mum and sis to a marketplace in Jurong West where we looked at electrical appliances and other random shops. Those old provision shops selling biscuits and what-nots reminded me of my childhood days. I don't see many of them around anymore.
Next stop, Jurong Point. Where I bought my first pair of Levi's. Never could bring myself (or to afford actually) to splurge on a pair. Have always wanted one pair just to see how good they are and long they'd last me. Besides, this pair I bought was on a marked-down price. So not too bad. :D
Later on, we bumped into Kay in BodyShop coincidentally. Daryl came to meet Kay soon after.
Also bumped into an Asian-descent French guy who's on exchange in NUS whom I met over Friendster. Chance to practise my (very limited) French. haha. But mostly easier to hold conversation in English.
Anyway, we shopped around a bit more and headed off home.
Though I had the best intentions to do some form of exercise (either gym or a swim) on Mon, the weather was mostly lousy (that's my excuse. heh. :p) so I ended up being a couch potato. Eat. Eat. Watch tv. Eat. Watch tv. With my cousin and sis.
That concludes my (un)entertaining weekend. ^_^
