For The Lack Of Stories

I CANNOT KEEP MY OWN PROMISES. Haaaa yeahhh. How long has it been since my last entry? You do the math. It's so hard for me to concentrate on one task at a time mann. Everytime I switch on the comp, I have like a million things that I wanna do. But at the end of it all, everything that I'd set my mind to do boils down to nothing. Need to regain self-discipline. Have lost them since like forever.

Letsee what I've been up to ayy. There was the hangout with Nurul and Imma last thursday, firstly to Vivo coz I'd wanted to exchange my tablecloth top to something else (ermm, the tablecloth is still in my possesion though =S). Lunch was, for the first time, at the chicken rice shop. Really good stuffs I hafta say. After that we headed down to our usual stretch. Hung out at macs at Marina Square. And we migrated THREE TIMES from the corner seat, to the one near the entrance and finally to the outdoor area in the evening when the weather was cool enough for us to chillax outside.

Safe to say, we have ditched Starbucks for good, no thanks to terrible service (which was really really strange considering we had constantly parked ourselves at Starbucks for a little more than 2 years and we had no problems at all). 2009 didn't start off very well for us with that coffee joint. And It's been a long while since we last shared a venti caramel frappe. Macs and McCafe are the words for now.

As for last friday, I came up with the most last minute plan for us to go cycling at East Coast Park. Imma was game enough for it, so by mid afternoon we were peddling the tandem bike towards the other end of ECP, the track towards the hawker centre that is. We had two whole hours to kill with the bike. So it started off breezy and laidback but by the time we were on our way back, the strain was finally settling in. It came to a point where we had to push the bike on the uphill part of the track, just cause we're totally wiped. Haha.

It's been quite some times since I last set foot at ECP, the last time was about a month ago when I went there for a jogging session with my dad and also during the CNY break for a family chalet. ECP will always remain as my fave spot, especially during non-peak periods, ie, weekday mornings/afternoons. That was just how it was last friday. Just perfect. Despite the two hours workout, me and imma kinda wasted all the effort by going for a late dinner at Banquet PP. Oh wellsss.

Fast forward to yesterday. It was my first monday without having to go on a long bus ride towards the north side. Had lunch with the other instructors at Madjack Simpang Bedok. They were all discussing religion throughout the meal. I just listened. Only because I've always felt that in order to broach on this subject, one need to be extremely knowledgable. And I'm not too sure if I know enough to actually fix some kinda discussion about anything relating to it. Perhaps it's just me, I'm more of a follower. And I'd feel much better talking about it with someone who is really a specialist in the subject matter.


Anyhoo, I tried the blue mountain burger for the first time. It wasn't all that spectacular. In terms of size, yes. But taste-wise not so. Maybe I'm so used to getting my burgers off the popular fastfood joints, so trying something different for the first time was...well, DIFFERENT. Haa. Maybe I'll try it again someday just to reconfirm the verdict on my tastebuds. Ohh but I recalled trying out a chicken burger from Hanis, and I thought the chicken patty was great. Maybe I can try that out again too. Just to reconfirm...


After a really heavy and enlightening lunch, I took the bus to you-know-where. Lol. Waited for Imma for over an hour at Marina's Macs. I was so bored cause I had nothing with me. Just plugged in some music and doodled random crap on a piece of paper. I can't believe the one day, when I could actually spend my time doing some good reading, I just had nothing on me. But on days when I chuck in a book or reader's digest in my bag, I can never find the time time to read them. Sucha bother. Yes, I was really bored. I couldn't even get myself food coz I was so full from the monstrous burger earlier on. SO YES, I WAS REALLY REALLY BORED. Ha ha ha.


Imma came awhile later. Waited for her to finish her lunch/dinner before we launched our scrabble showdown. Ya see, I was at the supermarket on Saturday with my family, and while I was browsing for a travel scrabble, I saw the cards version. So I bought a pack (okay, my dad paid for them). My attempt at trying out the pack of cards on Sunday with my cousin proved futile coz the niece decided to make out her name and her siblings' using the alphabets. Ok so back to the scrabble showdown with Imma. It was really fun though we excluded the power cards coz I don't understand how to make use of them. Losers had to give an ice-cream treat and we played two rounds till 7:30. Gonna have yet another game on thursday, this time round with ALL the GMs.

And that ladies and gentlemen, is the end of my storytelling for today. God knows how frustrating it is coz my internet explorer shuts down a total of three times while I am in the midst of typying out my story above. Lol. I'm off. And I'm feeling for yet another omelette with cheese sandwich. GB!
