Shit. FOUR days of "non-shopping" has really unleashed the psycho-shopper in me. On Tuesday, minutes before i was dragged across the road kicking and screaming, for my massive teeth-extraction, i managed to fleetingly carass a few rackful worth of clothes at Benetton. Since then, ive been in hiding due to the swelling. Well! Sunday saw me meeting my dear Weizhi(who henceforth will be affectionately known as BBQ, for reasons best known to herself) and Beeboo, after Sunday brunch(more on that later on)..and boy did we shop! I must admit, i went a little crazy, practically buying everything i laid my eyes and hands on, eventually leading to BBQ's remark that i "buy things very fast ah". But i'm very happy. Very very very happy. With all my purchases and my day. And my life.
The reason why i love my Beeboo and my BBQ so much is that we indeed are meant to be the best of friends. More than the obvious of having a damn shit good time together, we really can shop and eat! We even mapped out a very strategic "shopping plan" which maximised our shopping and our pleasure! Though Mango failed us, we still made it to the last pit-stop, Cine, and left happy and late. With my convincing and Beeboo's ideas, we could make the water and ripping idea work..*wink wink*..nose bleed and vomitting~ And i'm so shit sorry i got the both of them yelled at for me sort of 'taking' someone else's cab! Well, i maintain we were standing before them!!
Anyway, i have to say i'm really contented with my life right now. While just a while ago, everything seemed to be going against me, everything seems to be going my way of late. (No, i do not see the connection to my getting back together with Micheal...) I just wish that somehow i could have a little more time in Singapore. More time to spend with ma' girls BBQ and Beeboo, shopping, eating, laughing, just being us..more time spent playing mahjong with my singing Fartz and all my kakis...more time cuddling and being crappy with Mikey...more time doing ridiculous things, clubbing, bowling, badminton, fun with the Tooties...more time kidding around and chuckchuck(!) with Josh and Turtle, with DeWei, Jude, Daniel...more time partying with Sean, Kerr, Hon, Ice...more time getting manicures and spa treatments with Tammy and Corny..more time fighting with Elf..more time mashed up with Aaron and David..much more time with my Popo..more time with my family at dinners, laughing and joking...more time for ktv, mambo-nights, stay-overs and sentosa outings with Clar, Dawn, Qin..more time for nydc battle-against-the-mushroom-ham-rice gossip sessions with Dash..more time for sari, toga and Bollywood parties with the rest of the crazy gang..more time...just a little more time? But yet i really am yearning to go. A connundrum, i suppose. But couldn't be more satisfied with the way my life is spanning out now.

Oh and now about lunch. Went for the usual Sunday brunch with the folks, the bro and the grand-dudes..and throughout the 8 course lunch, even through the sharks fin and all the other geat stuff, all i really wanted to sink my teeth into was the xiao long bao. ThatXiao Long Bao. But as i happily bit into the blasted thing, it sorta got stuck on my lip, so i tried to open my mouth wider to shove it in, but as we all remember, my jaws are still sore and swollen and i couldn't open my mouth wide enough. So the entire lovely, juicy, five-dollar a piece xiao long bao fell, SPLAT, right on the floor, in an unrecognizable mess. N-O-O-O!! And by that time, everyone had finished eating theirs so no one could give me theirs!! Oh, the injustice!
