Speedy Rewind...

Today's finally Friday! Have been waiting far too long for this day! Imagine waking up every morning, cursing and swearing about having to wake up early.. >: (

Monday

As usual, having Monday blues. After the meaningless weekly sales meeting, Adeline, Veggie Girl, Sunshine Boy and I went to Loof to chill out. Guess I needed an ice cold to chill my parched and sore throat : / However, I chomped on sticks of satay dipped in peanut gravy, potato wedges, pizza and fat scallops wrapped in thick bacon. What an irony (I don't give a damn though) Went home and suffer from coughing fits (Didn't I just mention that I don't give a damn?!) By the way, it was Veggie Girl's treat as she had won the 1st prize in lottery - 1137. Isn't the number beautiful? ; ) Thanks dear girl!

Tuesday

Rushed for my last treatment after work. Well, after that day, I would have to bid farewell to the Orchard branch located in International Building - Just as well, the sales consultants were so pushy and unprofessional and the therapists were not as fantastic as thought : / (I am looking so forward to going for the Marina branch in Marina Square!) Did the seaweed treatment which seaweed mud was slapped onto my thunderous thighs and flabby tummy and afterwhich I was wrapped in cellophane film : P (I felt like a seaweed-marinated pig) It lasted for 20 minutes and a massage using essential oil was performed (As the therapist was rushing for time, she used brute force, hence leaving bruises on my poor tummy : ( - However, I was consoled when they threw in a free cold wrap due to system error : P) Met up with King Kong for dinner and coffee at Sakae Sushi (Had my comfort food - Spicy Salmon Gunkan) and Starbucks respectively. Went home by bus after that..I was too tired to go anywhere : /

Wednesday

Went to a forex trading seminar with Fat Boy. After having a quick dinner at Han's in Great Eastern Building (Had sweet & sour fish with rice, yes! I was craving for the latter!), we strolled to Apollo Centre where it was held. Well, it was a 3 hour session and I must admit I nearly dozed off at a certain point of time, though the presenter was humorous and professional : / He mentioned that he was a regional IT director in a foreign bank and though he survived 5 retrenchment cycles, he felt that it was time to wake up and gain financial freedom and spend more quality time with his family. It was really tempting to sign up for the course and software which costs a whooping S$4K! Then again, professional FX traders do not depend their livelihood on just a software program that does not condition itself to everchanging market forces eh? Ultimately, we left the seminar just before the Q&A session as we did not see the point in signing up - It was too expensive to be true. Besides, I was suffering from a splitting headache, leg cramps and thirst : /

Thursday

Went for a good and healthy dinner with Fat Boy. Had steamed golden pomfret, stir-fried kailan and sweet & sour pork chop : D~ As it was still early, we went to Loyang Tua Pek Kong to offer incense (I like the spacious environment of the temple) before going home. Played my favourite-game-of-the-moment - Dynasty Warriors Orocchi and brought BoyBoy down for a stroll..That practically sums up my Thursday : /
