on the edge for once

I am feeling the lethargy at last.

The girls just left for the movie, and I am taking a break before the cleaning up. I love good company, but sometimes, it is just nice to sit in an empty house and rest for a while.

the days in town have been saturated with walking, the heat, and times of solitude. I never knew I could spend 5 hours just strolling alone from one shopping centre to another. the day I go without my music, is the day I will feel lost and slightly lonely.

wanted yesterday to be my last day at work, but figured I shall not be so irresponsible, so one more day at town next week, and I am done with the market survey job. I think I have seen and experienced town in a whole new light for the past week. I think I have exhausted every resting place that can be found along the somerset stretch.

but it has been quite a fulfilling time. it allowed me a lot of time to think and to just be on my own. granted that I tend to be stoning half the time, but I guess I can appreciate the independence, and the rare moments of company are treasured by me more.

I should prob. go back to washing up, but I can feel the sofa calling out to me. my eyes are on the verge of closing and I am thinking of my work report. in yiwen's words, "Woe is me."

nah. I will play some music, and then I will feel more awake. one downside of going out so much, is that I am currently 4 episodes behind for my korean drama:( and I don't think I have time to watch those four. hence, it will accumulate..

I am really quite glad for the girls. I know I am not really the kind of friend who is always there for them, and I can be quite quiet and awkward at times, but I like knowing that we will be here for each other through it all. I don't have to be someone else with them, and though we can feel left out at times, I firmly believe that this friendship can only become better:)

I'm tired. I need a getaway. that is one of the main reasons why korea sounds very appealing right now.

the cheesecake tastes like sour ice-cream. hmmmm...

the cheesecake is actually quite good when it's soft:)



Yum:D No prizes for guessing who made this cheesecake:P

Anyway, I am feeling slightly better this morning. Was extremely tired last night,and didn't make much conversation at dinner. I wish I had gone for the movie instead. I know, horrible of me to say that, but I think I would have enjoyed myself more. It's funny how all three steamboats felt really different. I think I drank more chrysanthemum tea last night than the actual food. haha, what can I say, Sharon's fried rice and her mum's excellent soup made the steamboat pale in comparison:D (now, this is a slight "pawing"...haha, but I really do think what I said is true:P)

It will probably be the last time I'll be seeing a few of them, but in a sense, I'm glad that we parted on friendly terms.

"Have fun in Korea!"

"Yes, I will:)"

But no, I will not be entertaining the thoughts of a four-month fling with a good-looking korean guy, nor will I be enticed into going for plastic surgery.

And once again, I am proven that I am quite a shallow person. When he turned up with his gf, I had to look away so as not to take a double look. People just do not look the way I expect them to! But at the end of last night, I knew that I could wish them all the happiness in the world, because I can sense the happiness between them. And I like how they were very comfortable in each other's presence:)Thank God!

another chapter has closed in my life, and I am looking forward to the next one.

haha, I am glad I managed to persuade ronnie, who is going to persuade yiwen to watch "My Name is Khan" with me:D (corrected!)

I dislike the constant anticipation of thinking I might see your name.

And it takes a lot for someone to come into my life and stay for long. I realize I am not one for commitment, unless it means something to me.
