6th evening
That day, my boss allowed us to came back earlier than usual, at 2 pm, the office was really quiet, not like usual, full of phone ringing. Unfortunatelly I got something to do, so I went back at 4 pm and decided to come back the next day.
Have a dinner with my brother with NUS canteen food $3, he tapao the food from afternoon. We hang out at my living room watching "Wait till you older" by Andy Lau, then he went home. I felt very lonely that night, so I asked my parents to call me. We chatted, then I slept.
7th (1st day of CNY)
I went to office early in the morning (I went even earlier) to finish my stuff early. Finished at 11.30 am and decided to go for my friend's invitation for lunch. I arrived there at 12, and no other guests there. I helped them preparing the food. We ate chicken noodle (Indonesian style of course), with lots of side dishes (spring roll with bee hoon inside, fried bread roll with ham and cheese inside). We brought our turkey as well. They were very excited to cut it using fork and knive, just like in the TV. And the rest using hands. In the end, they can't finish it so we brought back home again (sigh!). I do not know what to do with that left over turkey.
At 2.30pm I took off from there (they have not finished yet, they started eating at around 2 pm), I met my ta tjie from church hehehe at east coast. We could not believe it that the beach was so crowded. Even you can't go in to the seven eleven. The shop keeper must limit the person inside the store, so there was a girl stand near the door to guard the door (to allow people in and out). Can you believe this? It's just like the Gucci sale at Paragon.
We tried to find a quiet place for sharing, but it's very difficult. So many people camped and playing at the beach. In the end we found a spot to sit down and talk. We talked a lot. She's such a nice ta tjie, she really listened to me and interested to hear things about me! This is the 1st time I felt being heard after quite long time (I think since high school from my old best friend, I miss you!). We shared a lot of things, specially about my struggle and plan for future together with JH. We talked until it was 8pm, then we found a place to have dinner (BK) and continue again until 10pm! Wow!
8th (2nd day of CNY)
I woke up quite late, trying to read books, but couldn't be so concentrate. Listening to Korean Music, arrange my Friendster and Facebook. Cooking Tom Yam soup for lunch to finish prawns I got from the BBQ on last Sunday. Then chit chat with flatmate, have a nap, planning to watch 27 Dresses, but cancelled due to we all slept, hahaha.... Cooking again for dinner, aglio olio with prawns (again!) I finished all the prawns already! I dunno how much cholestrol I will get from the prawns. Read some books, then found interesting Jap drama, HANA KIMI, watched for 2 episodes then slept.
9th (Saturday)
Woke up, made coffee, read book and went to the museum for the Greek Exhibition "Louvre". Spend quite some time there, from 1pm until around 5 pm! trying Greek clothes (I will post the photo later on).
Went for dinner, invited by Grace church cell group. All are families there, they brought their small kids with them. At first they talked to me, but think, we out of topics, so I decided to join the kids watching ICE AGE 2 (I already watched it before with Yoli from M1), while the others continue chit chat. Sigh.....I think I am more on the kid side. Maybe JH right, I am childish and not mature yet...........
But very glad for the people I met there, they are very caring, I was really touched. And found that the pastor was also a process engineer last time! So I can chat well. Just think that the guys are more friendly than the ladies, they were busy with their own business. Will I be able to click with them? Am I to quiet?
