Tired...

Just came back from a jog. As usual, felt rejuvenated after sweating off the toxins and fats. Recently have been feeling lethargic; perhaps, it's the beginning of the month, the level of stress hormones is especially high. I hate being in the beginning of the month. Just let me disappear.

Went Korean for lunch. Though not very enthusiastic about Korean cu
isine, went ahead with it since everybody was game with Ellen Lee's suggestion. Ordered spicy minced BBQ chicken, which came with rice and appetizers of ikan billis and kim chi. To prevent awkward silence while eating, I tried to strike a conversation with the rest - I told them that I could never live without rice - I would have withdrawal symptoms if I did not touch a grain of rice for 3 days. It worked, Jojo suggested substituting my beloved rice with bread and I strongly opposed the lame idea. Bread can NEVER substitute rice! Guess I will just wither and just die if I am thrown in some European country. After the substandard lunch, both Adeline and I walked over to the ang ku kueh shop to buy its specialty for the rest. After tasting the Q Q skin and the generous amount of peanut paste of the ang ku kueh, I am hooked (Though I can only stomach not more than one). Back in the office, it was hectic for me - There were phonecalls every now and then; I could hardly breathe. If not for the strong brew of pu-er tea, I would have gone bonkers! The power of good tea!

As for dinner, I walked to Han's and had seafood vermicelli and iced Milo. All by myself. Sometimes, it is good to have some time to do self-reflection...Called Jacintha to find out if she would be joining both Adeline and Gabrielle (Her bestie) and me to Timbre and yes, she would be going. Guess it would be good if we go out with her occasionally (when Ellen Lee doesn't join us). Anyway, I am very happy that Thursday is a public holiday! I have planned to sleep in!

My Korean set lunch.

Adeline's.

Jojo's. The lousiest of all.
