A long, dreary week...

It is FINALLY a Friday! Slaved all week at work feeling rather horrid about myself at the same time. After work on Friday no words can explain the relief I felt. Finally, the long awaited weekend is here....

Went to Chadstone to shop (alone) and got myself a bag from Mouche costing almost $200. I have aimed for the bag for a long time, and finally I got it.... After that got myself a pair of jeans from MNG at a discounted price, but which fits me really well (surprisingly). Almost 75% of my bonus has been spent after everything.... We did not receive lots of bonus payout this year, and sadly I did not know how to save it....

After shopping, I was at Coles getting some food to store for the weekend. Still haven't quite 'opened' myself up to socialize yet.... Just want to sleep and lock myself in my room being a loner....

***********************************************************************************************************
Actually I did socialize on Wednesday night. Michelle (Lim - got to specify which Michelle... Currently I know in total of 6 Michelles, 5 of them I am in touch with, and 2 of which I do hang out with... :\ ), one of my friends from back in Chom days, called me up for a catch-up with Sin and Carene (I always bump into her and Justin on the streets, and we were always saying that we should catch up... finally we get to do it! However, it is a pity that Justin cannot make it that evening) Honestly I haven't seen these peeps for the longest time, and it was good to see them again. They are all younger than me though... Sin is only 20 this year! Lol... I feel like an auntie... Chris also joined us as well. We had dinner at Big Mama, and then drinks were at L'incontro. L'incontro has changed.... Not just its interior, but also the quality of their coffee dropped tremendously. I gaped at the sight of my friends' cappuccino. Not only it doesn't look like a decent cappuccino, they said it tasted bad too! Luckily I opted a non-caffeine option.

This is actually just a portion of the Chom gang. There were loads others that weren't present, with Yongshan and Shu Yea, Mary and Grace, Edwin, Serene, Joey, Adrian, Andrew, Yoke Huey etc... I wonder when will we all get to gather together again, especially with some of them overseas....?

This cheese rice cake is really good!

For once I cannot remember the name of this chicken dish. But it tasted good too

This red snapper took forever to arrive, but then it is really delicious too!

The food at Big Mama were reasonably good, at a relatively cheap price. Will go back and try out other dishes some time soon!

Them with Chris.

I feel like someone with very low maintenance of myself. Looking at my friends, they always look sharper with the appropriate use of makeup, and the sense of not over-eating (unlike the gluttony me) so as to keep slim. In contrary, I am someone who hardly makes up and feasts like a pig. I have very high expectations when it comes to what I wear therefore I know my fashion sense is alright, but then, when it comes to my face, I know it is far from 'alright'. I do not stand out because I look so plain, yet I do not bother to do something about it so that I will look better. In fact, I hate makeup. I preached that I like the natural look, but then being an average-looking person, I do need some external aid if I want to stand out in the crowd.

As for body and shape, I know I am not slim. I look slim to other people because I know what clothes suits me and will cover up my flaws. I wear clothes that makes me look much slimmer than I actually am. I am about 5 kg heavier than other girls of my height. However, I have no clue on how to lose that extra 5kg because I love my food so much it seems impossible to lose weight!

Eventually I want to be a size 8. In particularly size 8 pants/dresses/shorts/jeans. I can wear size 8 tops depending on design, but I always have to wear size 10 bottoms.... But that means I will have lots of nice food to sacrifice, and also, cut down on my alcohol consumption. Can I do it? Will I have the determination?


I am hoping we can find a new housemate soon! Even though it is better with just two people in the house, however, if we don't find someone in soon, we will need to pay more rent next month... And that will suck totally because each of us will have to pay at least $250 extra. None of us are able, or is willing to afford that! Fingers crossed that someone good will move in soon....
