Some Thoughts

It sucks to know that all the efforts of maintaining that clear face go down the drain just after one freaking photography session! Despite a visit to Aunt Helen's last Tuesday, recovery is not as speedy as I thought : ( Despite digging out the freaking yellowish zits, I had lost that radiant blemish-free complexion that I had months back : ( (What the fuck!) It doesn't help that that time of the month is approaching - I think I had better just hide at home : /

Oh yeah, today is a good day - I had my DIY teatree oil facial (I am not going to let my skin die on me) and a good dinner with Aunt Maddy and Fat Boy at Sushi Tei in Vivocity : ) We had oyako-don, yasai tempura, avocado maki, sashimi salad and handrolls. Dessert was matcha ice cream topped with red beans and yuzu sorbet : P~ We strolled around the huge mall before heading home.

Met up with Sworn Sista in Sakae Sushi at Tiong Bahru Plaza last Tuesday. It had been quite sometime since we met for dinner. We spoke about my upcoming wedding, her husband's problems at work and her mother-in-law's marriage crisis. As there was seriously nothing much to stroll around in Tiong Bahru Plaza, I suggested popping by her house and say "hi" to her mom : ) Stayed till around 10pm and walked to the bus-stop (Fat Boy was working till late that night, hence I had to go home myself)

As for last Sunday, my family and I went tombsweeping at Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Brown cemetery. Though it was quite tedious standing under the hot sun and not to mention testing one's dexterity climbing over numerous tombstones, there was not a single word of complaint. We were fully aware that it was just a once a year event and everything we did was for the good of our dearly-missed departed. The best part of the day was standing around Daddy's lorry while tucking into deliriously-delicious curry chicken (cooked by Aunt Maddy), chopped stewed duck and chicken with everybody, despite no proper utensils : D~
