Today was my birthday and I spent it alone. Well almost... ( for some background info, my parents are divorced and I live with my mum during the weekdays and my dad during sat and sun. ) Anyway dad had to go for this golf game, so I decided to lounge around at Orchard until it was time for me to go home. Felt a bit disappointed that I had to spend my birthday alone but I was almost certain that mum would have at least gotten a cake for me and besides Dad had already treated me to dinner at Spaggedies the night before, fried calamari, soft shell crab, three meat combo pizza and tiramisu to end it. It was certainly a sinful and supremely satisfying dinner. Plus I got the creative mp3 player I wanted., so I shouldn't be complaining. Went to orchard library to study, though admittedly I didn't do much studying. Just managed to borrow some books for my south-east asia research paper which incidentally is due next Mon and I havent done anything yet...shit.
Left my bag at Cafe Galilee and went off for lunch. Was distracted by sale at Fox and got a pair of jeans and a jacket which I have been meaning to buy for ages and what better time than to treat myself on my birthday rite...self justification.... Anyway got some scones for lunch and went back to the library to enjoy it. When I got there, found a ang moh sitting at my table and my sweater was on the ground and I came to the conclusion that she had done the deed,thus I gave her THAT look and went off to another empty table and settled down to enojoy my scone with some hazelnut ice blended coffee. Actually felt a bit guilty later and thought it was pretty ungracious of me....After all, I cannot be so unreasonable as to occupy a whole table by myself rite? So I made up for it by smiling sweetly at the next person who asked to share the table....haha...so dumb rite? I spent the rest of the afternoon flipping through magazines and left at about 5, anticipating a cake when I got home. Imagine my disappointment when I got home and mum was on the way out for her dinner&dance thingy. She sort of sensed my disappointments as only mums can and promised to make up for it. But well......thats not the point...sigh. So I spent the night with my two doggies and needless to say studying was not on my agenda.
So now, I am figuring out my new mp3 player and hoping that I will have the willpower to study tomorrow...
