Today was good fun! Started off with a trip to Alexandra Hospital to collect my insoles, then jetted all the way to the airport to meet the girls to celebrate Chiteng's birthday and to see Peishan off. Our bill for Swensens totalled up to $322 for 21 people. Hoho. It was pure SINFUL indulgence indeed. Apple/Banana Crumble sizzling hot. Watching the waitress pour molten caramel sauce onto the mound of clean vanilla ice cream perched almost lazily on top of a golden brown pastry, I was sent to heaven. When I had a taste, the richness of the pastry just started melting in my mouth, a bevy of saccharine flavours. Plus baked rice and half a seafood chowder breadbowl (shared with Jasmin) AND two slices of Bengawan Solo mango cake.. gosh. To think I was still hungry after that...?
Then came the photo spree. I can't post anything up now because YOU GIRLS FLATTENED MY CAMERA BATTERY! We took like a motherload of pictures. Jeans together, skirts together.. black shirts/white shirts/psychadelic colours.. It was trigger happy times infinity. We were making such a din outside Swensens that I'm surprised they didn't chase us away. After that, me and Mindy took a train to town just to take neoprints cos I'm a deprived child and I haven't taken one for eons.
Had a really really good time in town, especially since I had a chance to talk to Mindy about stuff that's going on lately. I guess Mindy's always been a person I could talk to. Telling her things I've not told others, not shown others. We agreed on one thing though - how guys can be so poisonous. When they're interested in you, they treat you like a goddess, but once that interest starts to wane, they chuck you aside like an expired can of whatever.
Mindy: Maybe there's someone else
Me: I think there is.
Mindy: OMG SO FAST!! SLAP HIM!!!!!!
Heh. Silly violent girl. I guess it's like a common trait amongst guys - a short attention span. Is it a waste? Yeah, it sure is. But I think I've done enough, at least, I've done my part. It was refreshing to hear things for her point of view, and since she's with me on most things, I suppose that means I'm relatively sane. I guess no one but her can understand how much it stings, cos it was her who stuck by me last year when things started going amok. Now that it's a re-enactment, I'm glad that she's around for me. I LOVE YOUUU :)
