[ The miraculous effect of chocolate ]
posted @ 03:29 AM by fel


Feeling all rather glum and moody in the office today, and really not in a mood to work at all. I know partially that has to do with the fact that the rain/lightening/thunder woke me up early this morning around 6 and I'm feeling tired, but also there's another *ahem* reason.

Anyhow, I found my miracle cure (once again).. chocolate (in the form of mini toblerones).

[ A bit of intensive lunch time shopping ]
posted @ 01:14 AM by fel

Isetan was having a private sale for one day (meaning a sale for all Isetan Card holders and guests), and based on my colleagues' previous years experiences, it was expected to be really GOOD.

Couldn't wait til after work, so a couple of my colleagues and I sneaked out to Isetan Scotts to do some hardcore intensive shopping. Don't think I've shopped so hard in such a short period of time (1 hour).. and managed to rack up a bill of around $500. Majority of that was on bed linen (no, I didn't even buy clothing/shoes/bag/makeup!) and the remainder on household products. It's just the addition of many small items that equate to one big total sum! Independent living is not cheap at all!

[ The weekend is here yet again ]
posted @ 02:59 AM by fel

I'm so happy to see the weekend has finally arrived! I'm just dying to go and get stuff done .. and, more importantly, have a strong drink to loosen up the stressed up and tensed muscles!

Had a bit of a taste of the weekend last night, headed to Velvet for a couple of hours for what was supposed to be a couple of drinks, but turned out to be a couple of bottles...... but no prob, I think I'm getting my "party stamina" back again

Probably heading to Sentosa on Sunday for a day's outing. I quite like the place although many Singaporeans seem to shudder every time the little island's name is mentioned. It's a refuge away from Singapore, but not too inaccessible from the "mainland" and at least there's (some sort of a resemblance of) a beach there. I have a feeling I've ranted about this previously.

Anyway, time to knock off. Enjoy your weekend everyone!

[ Sunburnt, and in pain ]
posted @ 11:23 PM by fel

Ouch! Yesterday's outing to Sentosa has left me red as a lobster, and feeling the stinging pain of being over toasted in the sun. Not to mention, I'm now a good few shades darker .. but only in certain parts - I have a horrible racer back and bikini tan!!

Aloe vera gel has been rather relieving on the sun burnt areas (especially my face), so thank goodness for that. However, my shoulders are so painful that I can't even sling my shoulder bag over them.

But apart from the roasting, had quite a lot of fun down at Sentosa. New beach bar, km8, has opened up down at Tanjong Beach. Pretty nice hangout place, but be warned, you may be shocked by the abundance of beautiful people in one place..

[ An oddity, give him a pill ]
posted @ 10:05 AM by fel

Interesting, and not too entirely taxing day.

Had an all day conference down at the Amara Hotel. Interesting topics, met some interesting people, got rejected by a few others (damn the name badge!!!). Came home early, got a call from my cousin (who's visiting up from KL) and we headed out for drinks down at Balaclava.

Saw quite a big bunch of friends down there. Dying for a drink .. so had a couple to quench that thirst. Mid week .. and not much longer til the weekend (again). Feeling happy now - good company, many laughs, decent amount to drink - but still can't help feeling that there's still something lacking in my life. Don't know if it's the 1am "think too much" syndrome, or is it genuinely something more....

.. who knows? I need to sleep first.

I've not had such a sound sleep for a long time (other than the times I've been knocked out unconscious due to excessive alcohol consumption). I think it's the new bed .. and the bed sheets

I'm off!

Misery sure as hell likes company. Anyone care to join me whilst I wallow?

Ok, things aren't that bad .. but I suppose they could always be better. An inherent human flaw, always wanting more than we already have? But then again, if we don't aspire for more and instead remain comfortably satisfied with whatever is dished out, doesn't that make us complacent and under-achievers?

Ah whatever. Brain isn't functioning too well, and mind isn't particularly clear at the moment. And I just don't feel happy. I'm saying less than what I feel right now, because words are just eluding me. In the words J. Alfred Prufrock "it is impossible to say just what I mean!"...
