yesterday was great fun with kris and mari! lol. well, initially we were supposed to eat coca lunch, but coz i had mkting meeting, so we had to permanantly kiv our plan, sad.
actually, i was having really bad cramps yesterday, but i still decided to go out with them and it proved a good choice really haha. we first started out looking for cheap pedicure places at far east and well, we literally walked the whole of far-east and as we were about to give up looking for the legendary $7 pedi, we accidentally stumbled upon it! lucky us. you know, we were discussing yesterday that it's quite scary for girls, or specifically females in general to go shopping together because we'd all decide that we want to go budget, but after chatting excitedly with ur fellow female shoppers, the budget kinda gets thrown out subconsciously. so in the end, instead of the express pedi that we wanted, we all did a classic lol. but i think it's really value for money (see kristin, i didn't use cheap!) coz it was only $20. ok hindsight - it's not that value for money.. quite expensive actually. BUT relative to the other places we checked out, we did save an amazing $10! =) i think my nail colour is a little too dark, i think mari's colour is really nice. damn. nvm there is always a next time hehe. i will rmb mari's colour OPI W44!
and yes, being a bunch of females, we naturally did what we were best at while strolling down orchard - shop. hmm. i bought a skirt and 2 dresses. actually i don't even know when i'd wear them coz i'm not too fond of wearing skirts while taking public transport. i think that it's really quite inconvenient if i have to walk across the overhead bridge; i've seen it happen way too many times. oh well, we shall see. my sis suggested i can wear the black dress i bought to work. i think it's a good idea haha
then after that we walked all the way to somerset to eat orange lantern!honestly, i'm quite impressed with mari and kris for being able to lug such insanely heavy bags across orchard without a single complaint of the weight! mari herself was carry a labtop, mkting text and a whole stack of paper and kris of course, carried her usual garang guni bag lol. kris, i really think u shouldn't bring so many things, it's not good for ur back to carry this kinda weight around. anyway finally got to drink my avocado shake! no wonder my skin felt like it's in better shape this morning hehe. kris said she really liked the vietnamese food there. i think it's fun to explore new places, and it's really uncanny coz as i thought i knew orchard inside out, i never knew that killiney area served so many nice and cheap food! hmm orange lantern wasn't that cheap, but i think the shops next to it served quite affordable food haha.
oh hmm. i think i kinda pissed sq and pam off quite badly last night. sigh. they were complaining to me that they find it super difficult to ask me out. maybe it's coz i'm to some extent, quite a boring person. i don't club, i only do social drinking and i'm not fond of hanging out late. but sq and pam like to live their lives like that. sigh. but the thing is, they should know that i don't like to go out late at night and i also don't like last minute arrangements. i mean if it's once in a while, i don't mind, but i don't think we should make it a habit to meet late every time we meet. it's..unhealthy! anyway they insisted i went last night coz it'd be the last time we'd be meeting up before sq flies back to aus. but please, don't use that excuse on me coz i can't help it but to roll my eyes. sometimes, if you keep using the same reason every week, it really won't work anymore. and if you really want to meet up with me, why can't you ask me out earlier? why can't we go for dinner instead? why supper?? i really don't get it. sigh. anyway, regardless of how annoyed i was last night, i decided to buy their story one more time and i called pam around 9+. her phone wasn't turned on. sigh. i called like another million and one times, but her phone was still dead. so i came home in the end.. she gave me a missed call while i was already sleeping last night. i think she's going to yell at me. i could tell sq was quite annoyed coz she gave me her annoyed tone when she ended the call yesterday. sigh. maybe i should ask them out for dinner tmr. sigh.
