38 Bucks

Yesterday morning, I met up with Adeline at Far East Plaza to get our crowns of glory trimmed. Initially, I thought I was on time, but I was 20 minutes late due to the long wait for Bus 123 : ( Before that, King Kong was waiting for me at the bus-stop outside Shaw House - He had just taken his Microsoft exam and failed. Argh. (I thought that he would breeze through it since all along I thought he was smart. Guess little accidents do happen at times : ))

During our haircuts, we had a great time chatting with Joanne, the hairstylist. She was 6 months pregnant and we felt happy for her : ) However, I had a little worry: What happens during her maternity leave? Are we going to leave our hair untrimmed for 3 months? : 0

After paying 38 bucks each for our haircut and feeling satisfied, we went to have lunch at the chicken rice stall beside the hair salon : ) before proceeding to the bus-stop (Adeline went for her yoga class) As for King Kong and I, we strolled around Orchard Road and I was feeling very grouchy due to lack of sleep. Nothing, except sleep, could perk me up and King Kong suggested we take a seat at a cafe. After purchasing movie tickets for the 4:10pm slot, we rest our tired feet and souls at Coffee Club in Ngee Ann City. It worked wonders - After half an hour, I regained my energy and we strolled to Cineleisure to catch our movie.

It was nice watching movies with King Kong with his big big shoulder and arms. Felt warm sitting next to him. During the show, I kept catching him sighing and after it, he became moody. Asked him when he was behaving like that and he started to rake up our issue. Feeling touchy, I brushed him off and as usual, he gave in to me and we had our dinner at Sakae Sushi in Heeren. After he knew my favorite food was Spicy Salmon Gunkan, he kept pushing them down my throat (I have a bad feeling that the food item would fall out of my favorite food category soon)

As I had a dinner appointment with my university mates, I proceeded to meet up with them at Xin Wang HK Cafe in Cineleisure while poor King Kong waited for me at Gloria Jeans. Though I was having iced honey green tea and kaya toast with them, my heart was not with them; I was wondering what the latter was doing, though he was telling me he would be reading his book : / After the session ended in 2 hours, I rushed out and meet up with him. When asked what he had been doing while waiting for me, he mentioned that he was blogging (Instead of studying?!What the hell!)

As it was rather early, I suggested taking a stroll before hopping onto the bus to home. He agreed and we took a long route from Cineleisure to the bus-stop in Beo Crescent. Though we took about an hour walking, I didn't feel the strain; perhaps we couldn't stop talking along the way?

Finally took the bus to my bus-stop before he took Bus 147 home. Hmm, though feeling fatigued from the whole day's events, why couldn't I get enough (or too much) of him?
