Reel Life, Real Life?

The past week has been very dry...No good orders and of course, no candidates : ( It's painful to wake up every morning and knowing that there is nothing constructive to do in the office : ( Wonder if I am able to cross my minimum sales target this month. I wonder...

Anyway, last Saturday, I met up with my university mates at Hog's Breath Cafe in Chijmes for dinner. Well, I had my medium-rare steak afterall : D~ It doesn't make sense not to order their specialty eh? I was happy to see Skinny Bones and the rest and as usual, we did much catching up and I realized that everybody was so damn sick of the mundane working life. We reminicised those happy days when we attended lectures and spoke ill of the non-passionate lecturers and fellow course mates : P (I miss those days when I had the choice of attending lectures and staying home to snooze)

We proceeded to Gloria Jean's at Marina Square for a cuppa before going off (They are very good kids who don't fancy staying out till the wee hours) Craving for an ice-cold, both Skinny Bones and I headed to Harry's Bar for Heineken and ciggies. It was great to have a heart-to-heart talk with him after so long : ) It was sad to know that he couldn't undergo lasik as his myopia was out of control : ( He mentioned that wearing those thick glasses killed his confidence and I totally agreed...In this superficial world, looks are important...(Just guess the amount of money I've spent on vanity each month...)

As for last Wednesday, I met up with King Kong at Raffles Place MRT station before we headed for Sakae Sushi (to satisfy my love for spicy salmon gunkan) and "Money No Enough 2" (Yes, that was my second time) Though I've watched it twice, my sentiments remained; this is a good show and my tolerance towards Gramps increased..I really think it really sucks as a person to make somebody who gave unconditional love to you to sleep in the toilet >: ( We waited for the bus and while waiting, his phone rang and I was not very happy that he had to work after sending me home (I really hate the idea...Man, is this what I want?)

Yesterday was with King Kong again : ) We went to Republic Foodcourt in Vivocity to have dinner. We had the famous laksa (Nice! On a cold rainy day!) and "butterfly" fritter (My childhood fav!) before catching "The Hungry Ghost Festival" (He won the movie tickets in an SPI contest) It was great info-tainment (Either you love it or you hate it) and we left the theatre feeling that we had watched a good show : ) (Wow! 2 good movies in a week!) He sent me home and while he was on the bus, he mentioned that he was tired and would be taking a nap...(the second SMS came minutes later, saying that he would be going to work...) I was not very happy, then again, I cannot control what he wants to do. We are not committed to each other in any way : /

Anyway, I went to sleep feeling pissed.
