Did some light running with Fat Boy and Boyboy just now. It has been such a long time since I jogged, hence it was kind of tough : / (Resistance eh?) To reward myself for the jog and for surviving at work today, I slapped some tea tree oil facial mask onto my face (Vanity, thy name is woman!)
Last Friday evening, both Fat Boy and I met up with Sworn Sista and her husband at Chinatown. We had claypot rice for dinner and we bustled through the noisy but happy crowd at the night market : D Though we did not buy anything (everything looked the same from stall to stall), we managed to absorb the happy atmosphere (despite the doom and gloom of the economy) It was really tiring trying to squeeze through the crowd of warm and sweaty bodies : ( We went to Maxwell Market to rest our aching legs and to have a drink before calling it a day : )
Woke up at 6:15am on Saturday morning for the bloody quarterly sales workshop >: ( I reached Oriental Hotel with a super long face and I must say I was rather passive about the whole session (Who cares about his 3-month plans? It was really time-wasting) I thought the best part of such workshops is the buffet lunch after that, but guess what? Lunch was not buffet-style at all - It was just set lunch of chicken soup, pan-fried seabass and tiramisu : / I headed straight home after that to wash up and catch a couple of hours of beauty sleep before meeting up with the SPI guys.
Dinner was at a coffeeshop in Zion Road. We had zi char of fried prawns in pumpkin sauce, prawn rolls, steamed fish ala Hong Kong style, spinach tofu cubes, marmite pork, seafood hor fan, sambal kang kong and fried pork knuckles! : D~ Feeling very full, we went to Chinatown night market to stroll and to absorb the happy atmosphere (again!) We proceeded to 汤水, a Hong Kong cafe in Zion Road (again!) to rest and relax. At about 1:30am, just as I thought we were going to part ways, one of them suggested prawn fishing at Taman Jurong! As I had never tried prawn fishing, I was excited about the idea and we went ahead with it : )
Prawn fishing requires lots of patience. Some of them did not catch even one damn prawn after 3 hours : / I was lucky; I caught about 5 prawns (Dammit! They do not cost 30 bucks!) and was the prawn fisherman that night : ) We went breakfast at MacDonald's after that and by the time we reached home and washed up, it was 7am (Arghhhhh....)
I slept till 1:15pm until Aunt Maddy woke me up for lunch : P Lunch was mixed veggie rice of stir-fried cabbage and curry chicken (Yummy!) Watched some television and went back to sleep
: P (Oh yes, I can sleep alot!) I woke up at 6:15pm for dinner - Steamboat at Golden Mile Complex : D~ As if we were not full from steamboat and half a chicken, we even went to Tiong Bahru Market to have desserts (Aunt Maddy really has a sweet tooth!) before we went home to prepare for the next day : /
