I love rainy nights.

I love it when I have a warm, nice body to snuggle upclose when it rains.

Though tonight is not one of those nights, it was, on a rainy Friday, which made me overslept a little to miss a planned errand.

The lack of blogging is mainly because I feel the best hiding, and being on my own. I am almost like a recluse, and I only hang out when I feel comfortable with the right group of people. Maybe because I know they wouldn’t find my social withdrawal offensive.

In the past week, much time has been put into some miscellaneous planning that will take place next week(it is a pretty major step in my opinion), and the next week will prove really, really crucial.

And I am amazed how quickly things will move, and how fast things are confirmed, and settled. It involves bringing Bratworks further, and after discussing the ideas tossed in spontaneously, it seems likely it will work rather well.

Will blog more on it once things are more definite.

A huge leap, a new phase.

Despite the insomnia I had been getting, I finally had a long, peaceful rest last night.

Though I suspect it was the dream that dragged the sleep longer.

It was darn odd because it was a dream that pulled me out of the hermit shell, and made me deal with the human elements and work I so dread.

And I was dealt with massive blows to my esteem in the dream. I must have been a masochist to allow the dream to go on until it was 6pm.

Of course, when I greeted reality, I no longer had the urge to spend my Saturday evening out where there’s crowd and people.

I watched a lot of television, which is amazing since I haven’t watched television in a long while before this week.

And then the movie Inside Man finally was put into good use when I ran out of things to watch.

I downloaded it months ago and had not watched it, and watching it as the rain came pelting down, was good.

Nothing worth mentioning for the past week since I would spend my day at home when I was not needed outside.

After my Tuesday back in the office, I only headed out on Wednesday to join FF and Tetanus for dinner.

It was nice to hang out with my lovely sluts again, and we can’t wait for the day when Tetanus would scare us with his massive….. uhm.. whatchamacallit? Cough.

Darling, we have missed you much.

It is just plain great to be hanging out with people close to your heart.

JD and her friend(hey hey what tag should I be labeling him as?) joined us, before another 3 more of her friends came down as well.

By then, I was just having thoughts of home in my head, and couldn’t wait to leave.

FF and I left and headed home by train.

It was a nice Thursday night when SBB and I headed for drinks. We spoke throughout the night, and it took us by surprise that it was already 5am when we finally headed back to mine.

He insisted that I bathed him. Bah.

I had trouble sleeping, and he was sleeping as I stayed in constant touch with my designer to make sure everything was done on time.

It must be the rain..

I spent my Friday night with Qiwei and Liangbin, and they were very nice to give in after I expressed disinterest in clubbing.

It was a hilarious night, though I suspect that I would need serious dieting after the outing.

It must be PMS.

I met up with them and insisted that I was hungry.

Liangbin picked me up before we picked Qiwei up from Hougang. That brought us to Jalan Kayu where I had a plate of Maggie Goreng Pedas, and a piece of Prate Kosong.

One teh-o-peng.

*Burp*

I couldn’t stop complaining how full I was after the meal, as Liangbin drove us to Orchard Cineleisure.

The moment I got off, I was going on about popcorns and they stared at me in utter amazement, since I was the only one who was eating at Jalan Kayu prior to that.

Liangbin provided great comic relief to the night, when we were turning out of CTE(nearby Plaza Singapura), when he suddenly asked me to “return his mirror”. Qiwei and I were absolutely stunned, and I stopped short of looking into my bag for his mirror.

It was only because of his gesture to the passenger seat side of mirror, did I realise he meant to flip the folded mirror out.

And then he was saying how he had wanted to tell us about the mirror since we hit the expressway from Jalan Kayu, but he couldn’t get in a word cos we had no ‘full stops’.

Then he was berated(jokingly) by us that if there’s a fire, would he wait till we finish talking before he would alert us… and he was left speechless. And then he wasn’t spared of the ‘return mirror’ taunts..

We bought tickets for No Reservations(Catherine Zee is freaking hot), and I immediately coerced them into having desserts at Hong Kong cafe.

I ordered Sesame Paste with 4 Peanut dumplings, 3 custard buns and then another teh-0-peng.

And the 2 once again, ordered only drinks, and left me to gorge myself.

Evil.

Right after our movie…

We bought tickets for another movie! Premonition!

We must be pretty crazy.

Liangbin continued providing us with comic relief when he not only press the Lift Alarm instead of the lift-open button, and he even asked me if I wanted my popcorns sweet or sour.

Oh yes, I had popcorns, lemon tea and fried chicken chunks(they didn’t even want to help me with it!) when we were watching the 2nd movie.

They even asked if I want supper/breakfast after the 2nd movie. Heheh.

It was a great night out with a cosy group after not meeting them for years.

Thanks Qiwei, for the piggy bib

Thanks Liangbin for the movie and popcorn treat, and sending us home.

So much things had happened, and we all are moving on.

Take care.

Today I had a bowl of cereals after instant noodles(with 2 pieces of ham), and I had to hold back chomping down a bar of chocolate after that.

I finished half a box of butter cookies.

And I feel like having a plate of spaghetti with tomato sauce.

And now.. the thunder show is on its full display, and sometimes, a quiet night could be so fulfilling.
