Friday Blues

Met up with Sworn Sista for dinner at Sushi Tei in Takashimaya yesterday evening. Had not much of an appetite; not sure if it was due to the pending anger during 20 minutes that I had waited for her, the bowl of soupy bee hoon I had for lunch or just simply, the fear of putting on weight : / Anyway, had a good time catching up with her and I am so happy that she will be having her customary wedding this coming September : ) (It has been 3 years since she signed the papers)

Had a slow walk in the shopping mall after dinner and I was stunned when she asked me when would my turn to don on the wedding gown. I told her that I was not at all ready and it would not be fair to my other half. Frankly speaking, it would definitely be nice to start a new chapter with somebody you love and want to spend the rest of your life with. It would also be so exciting to attend wedding photoshoots and come up with all kind of cutsie poses and facial expressions in front of the camera, try into all kinds of colourful and beautiful day and night gowns just for the big day and of course, be the centre of attraction when you and him march into the ballroom during the banquet. However, these are nothing if either one is simply not ready to do so. What's the point of going through so much hassle only to go back to square one? Not for me.

Glad that she understood my point and she agreed to my thoughts. Somehow, at this single point of time, it's very important to have somebody to fully understand your predicarment : ) Anyway, time is always short whenever we meet up; her husband drove to pick us up and we parted ways, promising to meet up for dinner in the next few weeks : )

Gee, the small dark patches on my nose refused to disappear no matter what I do :~ ( (Guess I had hurt the outer skin when I exerted too much force in trying to purge the bloody blackhead : ( ) Frustrated and feeling impulsive (once again), I bought a small bottle of SK II treatment essence for 96 bucks (Had a 50 buck Takashimaya voucher, so it was not so tough on my pocket : P) Tried it and wow, it was not called "miracle water" for nothing; my face looked and felt smoother and it was more hydrated : D However, the dark patches refused to go away and I believed they needed time to do so : / The thing is that I needed to turn up for a SPI event at St James tomorrow and I heard of news that the gang would be celebrating my birthday (I need to look pretty!)

Exasperated, I have cancelled my dental appointment for facial at Aunt Helen's. I must make sure that she purge all the dirt from every single pore and remove the dark patches on my nose! Just as well, I realized that the longer the dark patches remain, the more I would touch them and the longer they would heal. Forget it! I intend to clear my pores before applying the "magic water". In this way, my money would be put into better use : D

Damn! Tomorrow, I have to go to the Branding Workshop in Ann Siang Hill at 9:30am.... : x
