So for the past two days, I was still down with flu(I think), minus the running nose. Felt terribly tired and dizzy-ish, but still had to go for work. Met up with Cecilia yesterday, with charlotte in tow at Great World City. She was being terribly mischevious again, jumping around all over the place and running everywhere. But she is sooo cute that you just have to forgive her. We had a lovely dinner at Ichiban Boshi, where I got to choose my favourite sushis from the conveyor belt. We proceeded to Zara where there was a sale going on. It was like a mad house in there, which totally turned me off shopping. And besides, the stuff were still pretty ex even after discounts. Charlotte chose that moment to 'poo'..hahah..so a hassled Cecilia had to rush off to the toilet to change her diapers. Poor thing, she looked so stressed out. Having to look after a child isnt easy at all, its a 24/7 job. After that little incident, we went back to shopping for Charlotte's new yr clothes. We parted quite early because I was feeling quite worn out already, after a long day. Charlotte gave me a big wet kiss and a 'I love you'...awwww..soooo sweet. I am glad I am an Aunty without having the responsibilities of a mother.
This morning, I came in to work all groggy and head whirling and all, thankfully it was a half day. I realize that I cant do without my morning cuppa cos my brain was totally not functioning at all and I was stoning at my computer for one hour before I decided to go buy. That particular teh tarik is the best, I would really miss it when I leave next week. And also the almond paste and mango sago at dessert hut. Izzy and I met Kelvin for lunch at China Sq, followed by dessert at dessert hut, though he didnt join us for that. We managed to get the last two mango sago of the day..heh..lucky us. And the waiter could recognize us cos we came by almost everyday.
I met Yumin for dinner at Holland V where we went to Essential brews. I love the ambience of the place. There are two levels, and the level upstairs doesnt have proper chairs, but instead cushions to seat on, japanese style. Note to self: Wear pants the next time. It was so difficult to seat properly wearing skirt and I could barely walk when we finally left. I was very satisfied with the food. We ordered a tea shake each, temptation island(which is green tea milkshake with a scope of

vanilla icecream) and a Vanilla Obsession(earl grey tea milkshake and vanilla icecream). Both were very delicious and refreshing. We also orderd a earl grey sirloin beef steak for sharing and a focaccia with mushroom and cheese..which were yummy, though we couldnt really taste the earl grey flavour in the beef, it was tender and juicy. We had a great time chatting and chilling out. Though the bill came up to quite a hefty sum, but yumin had a discount voucher for it, so it wasnt too bad. After walking around for a bit, I headed home quite early for a much needed rest and private time.
Sometimes I do wonder...what am I actually good for? Its a rhetorical question which I don't even have the answer for...
Anyway, on a lighter note, I feel heavy..I havnt gone to the gym in ages, well, at least not as religiously as I used to-at least twice a week. Its so much harder to wake up early nowadays. Oh man, one of my new yr resolutions is to stop eating so much,starting from next yr. So now I am trying to compensate. Bad idea! Next yr would see a fitter me(hopefully).
