my weekend..

Friday
after work, met my girls, chel and buddy for a movie and dinner date. however, our pirates tickets were sold out so instead we indulged in another favourite activity. EAT. the brand new eatery at cine, which sells "authentic" hongkong eats is a breath of fresh air compared to the local favourites. chel ordered the hongkong noodles soup which is actually instant noodles with luncheon meat, egg and veggies. the soup was pretty good and i suspect, loaded with msg. my buddy ate her favourite fish served with rice. as for me, i finally get to eat pasta! (i was craving for it since germany!) it was actually chesse baked pasta with pork chop. the chop was tender BUT i don't like! it tastes like PORK! we also ordered a "tau pok" look-a-like french toast. it was really nothing special.
the highlight of the night was actually the chat we had at starbucks (my buddy's favourite place). though it was a very simple activity, and something which they probably do alot with each other, i truly felt liberated and "in" again. it felt as if i haven't "connected" with them in a long time. and i also realised how frank my friends were. frank in the sense that they dare ask the truth and grill you for the truth. though i wonder if that's just the earl grey speaking. the topics which we talk about may just scare the average person for we discuss about any and everything. so if we ever ask you about fireworks, be careful how you answer!

Saturday
as usual, i am LATE for my date. sorry darling, but you should be used to it by now! its really hereditary! as a result, there were 2 girls trying to look glam, dying as starvation. subsequently, we slurped up the entire bowl of SPICY ramen and alot of fried stuff. feeling very fat but satisfied, we started indulging our eyes and fashionista desires by ensuring we comb the entire far east shopping centre (or is it plaza?). the shopping spree ended up with a bagful of "loot" and 2 very thirsty shoppers. so darling and i ended up at the same cafe i went to on friday. the mango ice seems to be beckoning to us man. we ended up having a small and very early dinner of dim sum and we only realised we did not eat the mango ice after we left the restaurant. what the hell! haha, but i made a good discovery: the pineapple bun and milk tea in the metal "gong" is good! we also managed to scare a guy by pretending to be lesbians. well, can't blame him for eveasdropping because our tables were only inches apart.

succumbing to our spontaniety, we called CJ out and ended up eating alot of things. first we went to subway and CJ ate a sandwich which is almost the width of angeline's shoulders. next we went to bakerzinn and we shared brownies with chocolate ice-cream! it was heavenly. quoting angeline, the brownies were "gao" enough. though the food was good, the company was even better. it feels wonderful to catch up and chat with good friends, however difficult to meet up more often. congrats to cj for finding a job and congrats to me for gaining a free meal.

Sunday
time to catch up on sleep.
