Met up with Effy for dinner at Vivocity before meeting Wenmei at Dempsey to catch up on some goss.
The two of them are flying off again today, and Singapore is like back to its quietness all of sudden.
A colleague of mine actually asked me out for movie today but looking at the extremely cosy weather, I think I would just laze indoors with my chubby cutie baby.
I’ve got a new toy. New colour, and comes with remote control. Muahahaha.
My Fridays have become the only representation of my social life, as the week’s highlights always condense into that one single day.
11 April – Given a lift home and fell asleep before I could even load into Viwawa. What social life?
4 April – Uncle Keith’s uncle, whom I visited, passed away after tormented by final stage cancer, and his burial was the very next day of his departure, which was Friday. The very tired uncle was down, and his 2 lovely mahjong chicks decided to cheer him up, by cooking for him again. Effy’s Banana dropped by, and braved our cooking.
I think we were all very tired. We all fell asleep on the couch at Effy’s, and he finally left at 10pm after a long, harsh day.
Or maybe, cooking is a very strenous exercise.
Effy was quick to mobilise potential candidates, and I managed to find one just before my phone died on me.
My mini-power nap worked wonders and I was awake till 7.30am in the morning, stirring and stacking tiles throughout. Heh.
It was no wonder that it was almost 4 in the noon when I woke up.
I was in a complete hermit state that I refused to head anywhere. I holed up in my bed and napped.
And Sunday was one of manicure and pedicure and all those basic maintanence, before we stopped for coffee at TCC @ Atrium while waiting for Uncle to pick us up for a quick game of mahjong.
I left promptly to see to some work stuff before stopping by for supper at Desker, before concluding the night.
It was a long Monday ahead, and we didn’t leave till 9 plus in the evening.

27th March – Nobody told me it was casual dresscode! I turned up at work wearing a dress and everyone asked me why I didn’t dress down.
Bah!
Grr…
My colleagues drove me down to Marina Square after work, where we had a karaoke session to bid farewell to a nice boss.
Wenmei, Melvin and I.
Wenmei and I!
This is just too cute to be missed.
I miss baby inside me too!
The sweetest guy at work!
Yah, I was bored enough…
Darren and David. They are older than me, like seriously.
My favourite chaps at work. Jemuel’s last day was Wednesday. Hey man, you will be greatly missed!
And we were the ONLY 3 who weren’t informed of the dress code. Hahaha, so we looked like everyone’s bosses. Kidding.
28th March – We didn’t play mahjong.
We tricked Uncle into thinking we were watching The Bucket List when in fact, we watched The Orphanage.
He couldn’t stop lamenting throughout the movie how Effy had tricked him into watching the movie. Blarblarblar. We know how uncle never stops complaining, you get the drift.
We couldn’t stop laughing during the times when we are not covering our eyes, and cringing in fear.
Right after that, we went to chill at Roomful of Blues. I beat Uncle in my first game. Yay. Okay fine, I believe he did give me a little grace there.
Then, Hermity days again. The week without mahjong. It was almost… impossible, but yah, it happened.

20th March – Long weekend ahead!
Had a lunch meeting at a Japanese restaurant in Gallery Hotel.
A filling lunch, and in holiday mood!
In the evening, it was Effy and my virgin attempt in the kitchen! And we had a little ploy brewing for the evening…
Our guinea pigs were unusually positive, and braved our attempts.
In Effy’s kitchen was Minibean’s picture!
Prepping ourselves.
We didn’t quite prepare any recipe and just thought we would buy anything and cook anything out of it.
Effy cooked soup, and Japanese curry, which won praises from the chaps.
The guys very nicely finished the broccoli. And I bet they said a little prayer before we tucked in.
Must buy 4D already…
Uncle Keith took a look at our cooking and decided he should have some backup plan… so he cooked eggs for us.
While we were busying ourselves in the kitchen, the unsuspecting victim happily surfed on the internet..
Dinner time!
Prayer time!
We polished everything off the plates, and we had desserts…
…DURIANS!
We forced nicely coaxed Max to try one, and he swore he would never try it ever again.
He looked on in utter horror as Effy and I Mmm-ed and Ahh-ed our ways as we tucked into the boxes of durians we bought for him.
We made use of our auntie charms to bargain with the uncle at the durian store. Uncle was so sweet.
We played mahjong through the night, with Shaun joining us post-dinner.
I spent Friday having dinner at Prive.
I was there checking the place out, and it was nice of CT to squeeze out a seat for me.
Yummy.
Post-dinner walk.
I was pretty tired, but I think I still manage to keep awake for Vantage Point, which in my opinion is not too bad a movie, though the annoying responses who didn’t know what the movie is about, irate me a little.
Spent the weekend bringing the little one out shopping, and buying things for her. Bought her a nice little bag when we were out late night shopping on Saturday, had tea and chilled over a nice weekend.
Will be posting up the pictures… soon. 
She is growing up so fast that it is almost amazing with the stuff she learns everyday.

Met up with my secondary school friend Felicia today and she is one of the nicest persons possible back in school days.
It was nice
And now, as I conclude this entry, I have so much things to clear tonight before I could get myself tense up over the next match.
Woohoo!
