endless munching

i have been snacking so much lately.. arghh! it's terrible! chocolates, ice-cream (my crazy obsession with il freddo), chocolates and more il freddo... like my msn nick, it's seriously 'work, eat, il freddo, sleep' for the past 2 days. wahhh!

good thing is the weather was good enough for a run today.. so i put on my runners and happily pranced around my neighbourhood =) did i mentioned spring is almost here? come sept! i can almost feel it. the weather is getting warmer with each day. the forecast predicts one week of nice sixteens/seventeens. yipee!

i've been so lazy... i can't stand it. but yet i'm indulging in it haha! ironical isn't it? i'm getting bored... my days are filled with events. but i'm bored. how can it be? i don't quite get it too.

BORINGGGG!

extravagant indulgence

after the pampering on wed, the never-seemed-to-be-satisfied lady in me continue its rampage. the following days was filled with endless cravings of il freddo and yummylicious cakes at crowns bakery. all of which was dutifully consumed on the fateful Saturday.

to add on to my decadence, yours truly went on a crazy shoe-shopping which resulted in 3 pairs of oh-so-lovely shoes from nine west. to justify my spendthrift act, i would like to say that i have been shoe-hunting for the longest time. honestly, the shoes they have here are usually too unbearable (both in designs and prices, which are just ridiculously high). the ones which i bought are heavily discounted and you would have to concur with me that nine west produces decent shoes and at prices so affordable, which lady in the right mind would be able to resist the temptation of owing a few pairs too many right?

and i have been eyeing 2 of it for the longest time. AND my poor feet needs some heels quite badly. so it's really a long over-due treat to myself. plus plus, the birthday is coming so it justs give me even more rhyme and reason to spoil myself just a little hee.

with the endless cold wind chilling the daylights out of me, it is only the right thing to do to snuggled in the comfort of one's blankie and read her story book till the end of time, while sipping hot tea and disregards whatever deadlines that are coming up. don't you agree with me? haha.

the closing ceremony is coming up later in the evening. wasn't it the opening ceremony which we just watched the other day? time flies really quickly when you're not looking. please come back again soon my dearest weekends. i will miss you dearly. to school it is, when monday comes. blahh..

don't quite understand..

today i had a pretty good day. it was one which requires little but gives plenty of pleasure. went to the City Library and discovered a splendid collection of fiction books. it is the haven for bookworms! best part is that the library allows you to loan up to 30 books for 3 weeks and you can do the renewal online. isn't that wonderful?

with 2.5 hours before my haircut, i promptly marched into koko black and indulged in some sinful desserts. had the chocolate cake with 2 shortbreads which comes with a thick chocolate mousse at the side. the mousse compliments the pastries so well. yummm!

sitting there alone, reading my book, taking small bites of the delites, and watching the world goes by.. it was such a wondrous feeling! i was thinking to myself, "i could really get use to this!" what a spoilt lady i can become if only the world out there was as simple as i dream it would be.

i returned home, feeling satisfied and happy with my haircut and my relaxing afternoon. cooked dinner and even experimented my housemate's champion bread pudding. i should be feeling contented for such a fruitful day has passed by.

however, why do i feel so flustered inside? it has reached a point whereby i have become such an irritant to the people around me. i presumed the swings have hit me pretty hard. or is this just an excuse for myself? i wonder..

for the thousandth time..

did i mentioned, i miss everyone back home?

especially my dearest family..
the many nights, which i have taken for granted and spend the evening in my room after dinner, instead of staying in the living room to interact with my family. that would be something which i would refrained from when i get back

two, my 3 beloved girlfriends..
it has been 10 years since we met. our friendship, i would describe it as strong and blissful. the friendship we have, is based on mutual understanding and sincerity, much care and plenty of concern (okie, many other friendships too). my point is, for some people, their friendship is filled with fiest and quarrels due to one party being too frank/too much/insensitive etc. for us, we do things the gentle way. no quarrels, no fights. maybe a rare few stern tones and some reminders. mainly, we offer advices and in the end, we support her regardless her decision is. and me agrees with this way of doing things.

definitely all my other friends which i did not mention here (you know i care)..
those who have been very nice to me, those who i always have supper with, those who makes me laugh, those who irritates me (or let me irritate them), those who i talk to occasionally, those who i used to talk to alot but less these days, those who i have fun with, those who have left a footprint in my heart..
i miss you guys too

Off to bed now. Lesson at 10am tomorrow. Wakie at 8am to catch the 1.5 hours ride to school for a pathetic one hour tutorial. Good thing, school is from Mon-Wed. Long weekend to make up for the sucky timetable.

P.S: I watched the online screening of NDP2008 during this event organised by the three universities, Monash, RMIT, Uni Melbourne. One thing to bring up is, never had I feel so patriotic to my country before. It's unbelievable how much pride I sang our national anthem with haha.
