It’s amazing how quickly time passes when you are enjoying yourself or indulging in nothingness as I have been doing for the past few months. My weeks fly by so swiftly I confuse the month that I am currently living in. However, I feel the urge not to lump all my days together and consider them wasted as I feel that I have spent some of them meaningfully with people I love. And so the recording of Anne’s latest history begins
18.6.09
Spent a wonderful afternoon and evening at Lynn’s where we experimented with making lagsane and pennecotta (i can’t spell) and indulged in playing bridge.
19.6.09
Met up with Junko for a little more sightseeing and managed to sit the Flyer! Now most people will, at this point, give you the ‘you-are-so-boring-what’s-so-great-about-spending-$30-to-sit-the-flyer-and-see-only-construction?’ look. But, hold your horses… it is precisely because we have the advantage of seeing the before and after landscape of Singapore that we should ride the flyer… what more if you have a student pass? (Tip: Students pay $10 a ride during weekdays)
I spent the evening with my family as we celebrated Father’s Day with a dinner and a movie at my brother’s place. It was extremely cosy and I really enjoyed myself. Drawback was, I got extremely exhuasted after that as this was the 3rd late nighter I had pulled in a row.
20.6.09
Woke up at 6am as I was bound for a weekend getaway with the girls in Batam. Whilst excited, I suddenly wished that time would just stop for 4 additional hours so that I could get enough shut-eye. It didn’t help that once I got the opportunity to nap for a while on the ferry, I spied tiny insects crawling behind of my seat. Any intentions to sleep went up in a poof. To further aggravate the sleep deficiency problem, a challenge to stay awake for the entire night was thrown down whereby the penalty for the first person to fall asleep involved toothpaste and many fingers. and so, we stayed awake until we called a truce.
Had a massage and pedicure done and had a really great time just hanging out with my favouritest people=)
21.6.09
Spent the morning and afternoon still in Batam. Had a quiet evening recuperating from the string of late nights.
22.6.09
Had dinner with my JC friends and tried this Japanese restaurant at Illuma. Highlight of that was the long and ardous ordering process due to an electronic stick which we used to identify our order on the menu. Seriously, just use waiters.
23.6.09
Nothing. Just had a vigorous tennis lesson
24.6.09
Nothing. Spent my day marking papers and preparing for my lesson in the evening.
25.06.09
Had dinner with Liting and her friend Eric. Learnt alot about backpacking in Europe and entered one of Singapore’s newest mall for the first time. Got LT and WK to adopt my guppies.
26.06.09
Helped out at my mom’s workplace. Marked papers and prepared for my lesson in the evening. Sent in my resignation letter. Fell sick.
27.06.09
Laid on the bed like a blob. Used up half a box of tissue and read all about MJ. Farrah Fewcett is dead too but i doubt anyone will remember that.
