Quick Update

Another week has come and gone. My, time flies by so fast!
* On Saturday night, my friend Chu arrived from Sydney and we met up with him for dinner at Mellben Seafood followed by a night out at the world’s highest al fresco bar.

* There are a lot of mango trees bearing fruit in our neighborhood, and I have the urge to climb them or throw my shoes or whatever at them so I can get some of them green mangoes, which are my most favorite fruits ever (my mouth is watering while I type this). But I think I can get fined for doing that, so I shall restrain myself and just lie down in a corner and weep. Sometimes I miss my childhood and the simple life.

* I got sick with fever and a headache and had to take a sick leave on Tuesday. I walked to the clinic nearest my place only to find that it was already closed and had to take a cab to another one. I spent the rest of the day sleeping, eating porridge, and watching TV. I discovered a new show I like – Body of Proof. I love mysteries! The next day I still wasn’t feeling well, but I went to work already because I am a good employee.

* As I said last week, my colleague Merci had volunteered to cook healthy lunches for me, and here’s what she had for me this week. She used healthy organic ingredients. Love them! 🙂
* Despite the healthy lunches, though, I didn’t lose weight this week because of all the carbs I consumed from the porridges and succumbing to Ruffles chips one night. But at least I didn’t gain. I shall be better next week, I promise!

* On Thursday night I had dinner with my office friends Dred, Jen, and Gani at Asian Kitchen. While waiting for the food to be served, I popped over to my favorite cupcake store, Twelve Cupcakes, which was just next door, and discovered that they had a sale – buy 4, get 2 free cupcakes, or 6 cupcakes for S$12. This was a really great deal, so I bought a box. When I opened it the next day, this was what it looked like:

Yeah, carrying cupcakes home in pristine condition is not in my set of skills. They were still as delicious, though, and that’s what counts, right? Right??

* We didn’t have work on Good Friday so I just stayed home and surfed the internet, watched TV, and did some chores.

  2. I would be SO upset to buy cute cupcakes and end up with that when I opened the box 🙁 Although, I bet they were tasty? 😉
