Oh yes, 2 new air-conditioners have been installed last Thursday : ) Though it's always healthier to sleep in natural air settings, it's also good to indulge in 18 degrees slumberland once in a while. I used to turn on the air-conditioner every night before I sleep and I discovered that my face was very dry. In addition to that, I would get occasional aches (Guess the chill ate into the bones?) I am seriously very envious of Aunt Linda whose bedroom faces East Coast Park and she gets to have all the fresh air in the world (Nevermind that her furniture spoils faster) When will I have the chance to live in great places like Mandarin Gardens?
On Thursday night itself, both Fat Boy and I went to the hawker centre at Old Airport Road to meet up with Match and Jan Jan for a late dinner. It was a refreshing change for me as I had chee cheong fun (my fav!), fried carrot cake, oyster omelette and satay : ) (I hardly have these for dinner as I usually stick to rice) We proceeded to Kallang MacDonald's to catch up with the rest of the SPI guys and we spoke about my wedding preparations and the Penang roadtrip in August : D We left at about 2am and by the time we washed up and retired, it was about 3am.
We woke up bright and cheery on Friday morning. After washing up, we headed to Mount Faber Safra to meet up with Yam Gal, Isaac and Sunshine Boy for a 2-hour badminton session. At the end of the intense workout, my muscles ached badly : ( I was consoled by a good and hearty chicken rice lunch at Margaret Drive followed by a good nap : D Went to Fat Boy's ex-colleague's wedding banquet at Holiday Inn Atrium in the evening and I was bored to tears during reception (I was like a vase standing next to Fat Boy who was so happy meeting up with his ex-colleagues) Dinner started at 9pm (Gasp!) and the food was surprisingly good. However, it was just like any other wedding and we left the hotel at 11pm for Vivocity to catch "Origins of X-men: Wolverine" with the SPI guys (Yes, we met again : P )
We spent the whole of Saturday afternoon snoozing away before heading to the hawker centre at Old Airport Road to purchase durian cream puffs for Fat Boy's mother (It was her lunar birthday) Met up with her and his family members at Jumbo Restaurant where we indulged in cholestrol-high chilli and black pepper crabs, herbal prawns, yam-wrapped scallop, fried chicken, oyster omelette followed by durian cream puffs and mango cake : O Fat Boy sent them home before meeting the SPI guys (again!) at Tong Shui Cafe in Bugis : D Well, due to the hot weather, I had an ice cold Heineken while the rest had the usual big pot teas. We left the cafe at about 3am and boy, we were so shagged that Sunday was spent at home slacking.
Ooh, by the way, did I tell you that I went to Aunt Helen's last Tuesday and she had a hard time digging those zits out from my pores? It was really painful and I seriously didn't know that my condition was so damn bad :~( She advised me to go back to her in a week's time to continue with the painful treatment and boy, I am still thinking about it. It's not only about the pain, it's also about the exhorbitant 80 bucks price tag per session! I could have bought 2 pots of Body Shop's mineral loose powder : (
