Life Is But A Sojourn

Take a break
Today is Deepavali, a public holiday and I don’t have to work. So glad that I can rest one more day as usually the weekend is never enough for me.
Last evening after I finished my dinner, Xinyi called me and asked me out for dinner with May, Jeff and GH. As I just had my dinner and too lazy to go out, I told them to go ahead without me. But then May called up again and used her position as a mum-to-be (she’s pregnant) and wanted me to join them for some catch up. I asked Baby if he keen to join but he didn’t. And so I agreed to meet them and they came to fetch me. We went to Parkway, they had steamboat and I watched them eat. Ha! But it was fun as we seldom get together like this for a long time. We continue with our chat at the mac cafe and left at about 1am.
I love my dear sisters. They are really friends to keep for life! I’m grateful to know people like them.
Today I don’t really keen to go out. So lazy and my stomach hasn’t been feeling well for days. I started to pick up tarot reading again. This time I’m not going to give up halfway and i’m in intensive training now! I should be able to start giving reading very soon.
Lately, I have overwhelming tasks to do at work, mentally I am very stress. I hope the new assistant can help to ease the workload and I’m sure she can do well. Of course at times for the present situation, some people tend to do stupid things that irritates me. I don’t want to be specific but I hope that “whoever” can just respect who I am now. Sick of those stupid actions!
It is raining heavily now. And thunder strikes loudly too. In such nice cool weather, I think my bed is calling me now……………………

Grown up
18 Jul Friday night… Met up with the girls for dinner at Minori Dining & Sake Bar at UE Square. Supposed to celebrate Xinyi’s birthday with just me and May… Ended up Lena joined in and Eileen after her work.
Should have taken photos during the dinner!!! The girls damned me for forgeting to whip out my camera. :X But anyway, we have sushi buffet and I find it good (as usual, Lena kept complaining it was no good and expensive) and much better than Sakae Sushi. We talked and ate and kept ordering since all were on free flow…
May is going to hold her wedding on 5 September. I feel happy for her and hope all preparation goes on smoothly. My primary school classmate, Jeremy is also holding his wedding in September! But I don’t think I will be able to attend his wedding. On the other hand, Xinyi will be holding her wedding on 18 December and my not-close-at-all-cousin’s wedding in October. Gosh!!! So many weddings!!! I can feel the big hole in my wallet now.
After our dinner, we met up with Eileen since she worked in Liang Court now and we headed to Clarke Quay Coffee Club. I noticed that Eileen has ballooned so much since we last met in March. She claimed she had fast food almost everyday. OMG! That is so scary! Too much fast foods make you grow fat faster!
At Coffee Club, we waited for a looooooonnnggg time till we got our seats. We ordered our drinks and finger food (so sinful to eat at 12 midnight). Xinyi’s tempting to order a little piece of cake and so we eventually sabo her…

When her cake arrived, we requested for a candle. Xinyi was violently against the idea as she knew that our daredevil Lena will create a scene by singing at the top of her lung! True enough, we sang loudly until the table behind our table applaused and sent their birthday wishes! HAHAHAHA! This is so fun! As you can see from the picture, the birthday girl was painfully embarassed but happy.
Some random pictures……


I want to highlight that this dinner was planned at the very last minute! That is why the rest of the gang was not invited!
Looking back, we have all grown up and most of us are married. Lena is already a mum of a two-year-old son. Who’s next? Heehee… I really miss the days when we were young and free.
