Flurry of activity

It had been a fab weekend!

Thoroughly enjoyed myself at Womad on Sat even though sweat was pouring off me the whole time. The superb company I was with was an important ingredient of the great night out! Got to know a few new friends (fellow labmates of Kay), spoke to some French exchange students (Kay's labmates' labmates) and ran into so many people I haven't met for a while! Joy joy! :) Exchanged contacts and a few promises to keep in touch. Though a lot of times we probably know that's not very likely to happen. Still, it's nice to know we could catch up someday if we choose to. :D

Then of cos' the music was groovy and danceable (most of it, at least)! I've so gotta find out more about the ones that I liked. Dragged a few of my girlfriends to take a photo with one of the amazing bands after their performance. hee.

We headed off for supper when the DJ's spinning started to bore some of us... It's been a while since I've had supper (abandoned in a bid to make way for the 'healthy' lifestyle). We chit-chatted with surprising energy (it was probably 2plus in the morning) amidst mouthfuls of prata.

By the time I plonked myself on my comfy bed it must have been past 4am!

On Sunday, my sis and I had planned to put on our oven mittens and aprons (Ok, so we don't really have these but I fully intend to hunt down some pretty ones!) to bake. She was going to impart the secrets of her delicious chocolate-chip cookie recipe to me! :D We had so much fun baking together. The work was halved and everything else good doubled! Haha. Also tried our hand at some brownies but unfortunately these were not as successful as the cookies. A little too dry. I think the recipe my sis picked off the internet wasn't very good. But never mind, we intend to try again sometime.

Later in the evening I met up with an old friend from uni for a chat. Out of sheer sweetness (;p), I brought a few cookies for him but as he happily chomped them down with gasto, he commented they were a little bland. My sis and I, in trying to make them a little less of sinful, had used lesser butter and sugar than the recipe recommended.

A little twist of fate that evening saw me regain the friendship of an ex-good friend. (Some misunderstandings before caused us to stop contact.) So that was a nice closure to the weekend. (Although I didn't get much sleep cos' we were catching up over the phone.)

Right now there's an internal debate raging as to whether I should go to the gym or go home. Hmm... decisions, decisions... I think I've a slight idea which side's stronger... :p
