Hi Ho!
Meaning to blog since Wednesday but was too darn tired..the past 2 days were kinda hectic...on Wednesday I headed down alone to the infamous ''Joo Chiat Complex"" to get curtains..I had never been there alone and I must say I wasn't comfy in the environment..amongst the steady hagglers and mums with large families in tow..I must have looked like a lost lamb..and as I circled the complex again and again I felt like an idiot..I was reminded by my mum n aunt that I MUST bargain at this places..and when I came across this store assistant in one shop,who seriously informed me that the sofa covers I wanted were $115 a set I was like whaaaat?!Now..Im not one to compromise on quality just bcoz of pricing but this was a bit too much..I knew that the value of that set had to be somewhere between the $65-85 range.Either they realllly raised the price up or she must have thought that I was an idiot.
Suffice to say I waved her off and walked away.Well then after buying rhe stuff from another shop after 2hrs of wandering here n there...I walked out and kept walking trying to get a cab..no luck..so I crossed the road and tried again but no luck..so I CROSSED the road AGAIN..and you know what?It started raining.
I was cursing my luck as I heaved my heavy bags and walked into the complex again to seek shelter.After a while it occured to me that most of that taxis were not at the main road coz they were turing into the side lane.So instead of crossing up and down earlier..if I had just walked to the side of the complex I would have been in a taxi ages ago!!
What the hell rite?
I finally got a cab in like 2-3mins..while waiting I noticed I was opposite ANOTHER landmark..the Hotel 81 Classic..hehehehe...nice nice.
Well then to fast forward..went home,put up curtains,changed sofa covers,went down to my friend maya's place for a while..came home started unpacking deco,finally put up the tree,cleared up the after-mess in the hall..then took a laaaate dinner,did more cleaning,then went to bed coz next day I had an important appointment with my close buddies!Yaaaaaaaaaayyy..talked on the phone with Sanjit for a while then slept..zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Thursday
Met up with my buddies..we had ice cream @ Swensens..both my twinny and I for some STRANGE reason could not finish our fave ice-creams..sigh..well went to watch Billa..and lemme tell you the cinema was conquered by INDIANS hahahaha..they should change the name of the cinema to something more Indian LoL..anyways am not a fan of Ajit but curious to see this so -called remake..and the trailer brought to mind images of Shahrukh Khan's Don...well the movie was very funny thanks to the ''enna kodumai saravana'' fame Prabhu..we were laughing at his clumsy but cute ways...namitha...bleahh nothing much to say ..Nayanthara oh gosh..that babe is re-inventing herself..I sometimes do sort of prefer the old nayanthara..she used to look so cheerful..oh well..anyways the costumes were so niceeeee...I loved the outfits Ajit was wearing and nayanthara's outfits were stylishly cool too..
After the movie we went phone hunting coz my hp was long past its expiry date hahahaaha it was literally hanging on to life by a thin thread..I bought a simple Nokia 6300..coz somehow the newer models didn't really impress me that much..Later Sanjit and I went for a drink and caught up on some work related stuff then we headed home for dinner..
all in all I had a good time with my buddies...oh and my twinny gave me a Xmas present...so sweeeeeeeeeet rite?!Hugssss..Thanks guys..had a great time we should catch up again SOOOON...
This is me,Patricia
