Monday Happenings...

I was supposed to meet Yi Fei @ 11.30am @ Aljunied Mrt Station. I was to follow him to Kino. I woke up only @ 11am... :-P Yeah, what follows next would be predictable. Took my own sweet time to bathe & dress up, after informing the darling of course. Actually, I've realised that I don't take a long time to dress! It's just that I take a considerable amount of time deciding what to wear... :-P

Met him at Orchard directly. We had lunch @ Paragon. He brought me to this Chinese Restaurant that I had always wanted to go to. They serve the world's best dumplings. Literally! They're one of the world's top 10 best chinese restaurants. Impressive eh? I enjoyed lunch, in fact, it was bliss compared to what I had to endure in the name of lunch the previous day!

It was shopping after that... I seriously am broke, but I just can't resist shopping! Aarrgghh! I ended up with 3 Polos, and a shirt. I have been wanting to get the linen-cotton shirt for quite sometime, & today was the day to get my hands on it! The 3 Polos were a bonus. I'm not stating the amount I spent... I'm sooo broke! :-(

And I still can't find my camel-coloured sandals! Double sadness. :'-(

Yi Fei Saved My Sunday...

I was totally sceptical when "they" told me that the meeting time was 11am @ Tampines Mrt control station. Reason? It was a Sunday morning in question... Which idiot would wanna get up that early? Or rather, I wouldn't bother getting up in the morning for the matter! But... I did. Yeah... I, Shankar, actually woke up early on a Sunday morning, to meet "them". What irritated me the most, was the fact that I was the earliest to reach almost quite puntually! So much for being known to be the one who takes the longest time to dress up! I was totally pissed...

If that wasn't enough, the one who planned & decided on the timing, arrived almost 2 hours late. And lunch was at Pasta Mania. Trust me, having Pasta Mania 2 days in a row isn't a wise idea. I hated having lunch there, every mouthfull was a chore. Event the linguine seemed unhappy to end up being chewn in my mouth. As if I wasn't feeling bad enough, Someone there had to make it worse... :-(

Honestly, I'm not that caught up with my woes, that I'm not even blogging about appreciating the fact that I had people to lunch with. I mean, yes, appreciating people is one thing. But forcing myself to be comfortable due to the appreciation is another.

"Someone" told me to go with the flow, take the chill-pill & etc. Personally, I think you are only capable to say such unintelligent stuff, when you don't take anything seriously in life.

Thanks to my darling Yi Fei, my remaining Sunday after the "memorable" was saved! Yay! LoL! We headed to City Hall, covered Citylink Mall, Marina Square & Suntec. Not without a reason of course. I was looking for sandals to match a camel-coloured bag I bought. *Smiles Widely* And yes, I'm absolutely sure there's a colour in the fashion world called "Camel". Have triple-checked even though I was positive. It's a statement of personal precaution before someone asks me if I was doing a Ris Low, inventing Khaki green! But sadly, I couldn't find any footwear in the same colour... Sadness.

An Uneventful Saturday

This has to be one of my rather Uneventful Saturdays... I'm soo bored! Or maybe it's just that I'm too lazy to go out again!

I met Strawberry for lunch, we went to Eighteen Chefs @ Eastpoint. (Erm, we're both sticklers for punctuality, so I shan't say the time we met for lunch!) He was telling me that the serving was a bit smaller compared to the usual for dinner. But the food wasn't too bad, we had cheese baked pasta. We managed to chat for awhile, before he was off for a game of tennis. Thanx for the lunch, SB!
I had reserved a shirt @ TM, went to try it on. Imagine my disappointment, when I tried on size S, and it was really loose! I'm not kidding, the cut was so huge, that the size S seemed like an XXXXXXL! I loved the colour, and it was only $40! But I didn't buy it in the end... Was too loose to be even altered. Sighs...

Am looking forward to the outing to "God-knows-where" tomorrow. Hahakz! All I know is that I'm supposed to meet my friends @ Bedok MRT Station @ 11am. I'm only worried about my punctuality. It's too early for a Sunday meeting! But I can't complain, as it's another opportunity to dress & work it! Hahahakz!

And, my Dearest Vikku called me a smelly, lazy pig for sleeping a little more than usual!!! AAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH! :-P

An Extract From Dec'08

Hey Peeps! I posted this last year in Dec, thought this extract would be a good personal reminder for me.

"Went to watch Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi on Friday night at 11.25pm, it was the opening day of the movie. Seriously, it was a wonderful movie. The new heroine is beautiful, and Shahrukh's acting is 1st class. A love story told in a very different way. All girls would pray to have a husband like the character in the movie. But it was the points & dialogues about love in the movie which really hit home. Seriously, I think I've began to look at love at a different angle. I've again realised that, It's not about expecting reciprocative love in return of loving. There's actually more pleasure in Loving someone much more, without expecting any love at all. It's hard, but it was so well potrayed in the movie. Love is such a beautiful thing... But It's just so painful & hurting at the same time..."

So befitting at the right time... I'll stop expecting anything... And I mean, Anything.

A Brief Update

Hey ppl! It's been some time... I'm not gonna spin stories about being extremely busy to update my blog. I had confidently stated in a previous post that I was only gonna be blogging about happy stuff. To hell with my confidence...

I definitely had my fair share of happy moments, but they were far too trivial (it's what I choose to think...) to be blogged about.

Why I started posting again? I guess, I need a venue to... express pressing issues. Speaking of "Issues"... When do you acertain that ppl have got issues with you? Or, when do you conclude that you have issues with ppl? Me & Issues seem to have some close affinity! I mean, for those kind-hearted souls who have been following my blog for the past couple of years, you'd know exactly what I mean.

I'll face it. How do I address the issues that ppl have with me? Or to start with, how on earth do I solve the issues that I have with myself?? I'm not lying when I say, "I've tried my best". It doesn't work that way. It seriously doesn't. When would the world (Ok... world would be too much of an exaggeration)! When would the "HEART-FULL" souls around me come to understand that my issues will be settled, only when their's with me is???

I've passed the stage of worrying about passing clouds. At this juncture, I'm proud to announce that I classify the majority associated with me as "Passing Clouds". They were never meant to stay, nor meant to be celebrated...

I've mentioned this before... It hurts most, when it's caused by someone close/loved/cherished. I've got a million questions, but none of them have answers to them. How do I stop caring for the one who doesn't care about what happens to me? How do I stop thinking about the one who doesn't give 2 hoods about my existence? How do I stop loving the one who said, "You're Mine", but didn't mean any of it? If your main intention was to hurt... you succeeded. Indifferent A.h.

I'm in no mood for ending salutations...

Thanx for reminding me about my blog Vikku, I owe u one... :-)
