Saturday ROCKED!!
Well for starters I woke up late..around 2ish
Had a bad throat and a stiff neck to boot
Then I checked my hp and saw that I had smses & missed calls from Mary..
See,the thing is she was entitled to a one night stay at The Marriott Hotel & it was pretty last minute by the time she rememebered that the deadline was close..so we had to make full use of it.
Koko was tied up with work commitments & Rathi's prolly on some business trip on God knows which part of the world..so it was just Mary & I!!
I was feelin darn lousy when I woke up but I knew I JUST HAD TO BE THERE with Mary..and besides ..I had no other plans so this was way better than rotting at home..
Met Mary at Orchard & Debbie joined us too..since Sanjit was in the area we told him to pop in if he's free..
By that time I wasn't really in such a crappy mood
THIS WAS GONNA BE FUN!!
hahahahaha
We checked out our hotel room and u know what.
It wasn't just a normal room.
IT WAS A FREAKING GODDAMN SUITE
Ok..a Junior suite..BUT STILL..
It was uber cool la..
All 3 of practically behaved like kids in a candy store oohing & aahing even though it wasn't our first time in a hotel..
hahahahaha
The bathroom was TO DIE FOR!
We were provided with BVLGARI toiletries!!
Debz was starving so when Sanjit called to check on us we told to him come on up & check out our suite..
He was impressed!
Ermm he wasn't too impressed when he saw that I was a complete idiot with the key pass & had difficulty opening the door but HEY SHUT UP..hahahaha..
Introduced Debz to Sanjit then the 4 of us walked out to Far East for dinner..
We had..what else..LJS
hahahaa..but yeah it was super packed..it being a Saturday night n all..
We had a nice time yakking and laughing over our meal & then decided to continue our conversation in the comfort of the suite...
We yakked & yakked away without realising that time was flying past..soon Debz left & after a while Sanjit left..
After seeing Sanjit off at around 4am...Mary & I walked back to the hotel but instead of going straight up to the 26th floor we detoured to the pool area..
Even at that time of the night it was breathtakingly beautiful
Too bad we couldn't take a dip..
We were kinda tired out by the time we got back to our suite & a little hungry..
So after changing both of us jumped on to our super comfy bouncy bed and shared tuna & sardine sandwiches with ice cold root beer while watching a re-run of Remington Steele..
We slowly drifted to sleep around 5am while talking about the evening..
It was nice & I felt peaceful..
ok fine..i felt HAPPY in fact coz of certain things..but..we'll talk about that some other time
I was tired but I didn't fall asleep..I just lay awake watching the sky and listening to the sounds of the city around us..around 6ish I got up and went to explore the suite a bit more..
It was such a nice feeling looking down at the city with the sun barely out yet..
The roads were empty save for the solitary car speeding past..
I knew that within minutes the city below would be bustling once again but just for that moment..just for that moment..I closed my eyes as I pressed my face against the glass panel..I imagined that I was the only one in the city..
Mary woke up early..she barely slept 3hours..she joined me on the couch of our living room area of the suite and we blissfully lazed around in our night clothes talking about random stuff..it was surprising how much we could STILL talk after all that yakking the night before..
Then around 9am I went to take a long shower & a soak in the hot tub
I think I took longer than expected coz by the time I came out it was so bright everywhere..
Guess I was in there for more than an hour!!
I dried out my hair by the time Mary went to take her shower..and since I was feeling pleasantly groggy by this time...I went to apply my make up & do my hair in order to save time later..
Mary was out sooner than me..and we quickly changed and walked across to Shaw Ctr to grab some MacDonalds
After that the time passed very fast and soon it was close to check out time..for all our time there we did so much talking & relaxing that we forgot to take much photos!
Oh well..there's always a NEXT time..
I came to Yishun by MRT & went to buy lunch for my family as per mum's orders..
SIIGH..
yeah Yishun seemed so boring compared to the city hahaha
BACK TO REALITY
I didn't wanna sleep but somehow my eyes kept closing until finally around 4pm I gave in & crawled into bed..
Woke up at 10pm!!!
Took dinner & here I am now..
I may not have partied hard all night but I had a purely fun evening with people close to my heart..
That was all I needed to drive away the blues that had been consuming me..
Mary..thanks for being so generous..ur the reason we had that beautiful suite..
Debz..thanks for being such a good sport & staying back till so late even though you had church in the morning
Sanjit..thanks for coming by & being such a dearie..the gerls reli liked you =)
Au Revoir kiddos..
