*Yawn* Desperate lack of sleep...
Covered an event last night at Neptune...and I brought Isabel along. Hehe...culture shock for her. You know, with that kinda dance segment. Haha...I remembered my first time at Neptune sometime last year. At that point, the performance was only opened to those aged above 21. This year, anyone above 18 can watch it. And boy, they were more explicit this time, as compared to when I watched it last year. Ha...how times change things.
Anyways, was a successful event. Fun and entertaining games. Isa and I were seated at the media table, and it shouldn't have come as a surprise that almost all were rather vocal people. There was one in particular...I must say I do admire her guts...though some may even think she's rude. *shrugs*
Well, Amy dated me for a movie today, and technically I said yes. But as the day wore on, nothing I planned happen. I wanted to go to the bank in the morning - naught. I was supposed to go tuition - zilch. I was supposed to go run - it rained. Watch movie - I went Suntec coz of the midnite sale. Ha! Remember, I said I wanted to do a pre-Xmas-shopping shopping...Running should be on tomoro then.
So ultra crowded, killed my mood a little to push against people to source for bargains...not to mention the queueing to try on, queueing to pay...Kaoz...I skipped some shops as a result. There's no way to even go into them. I didn't buy much, more like window-shopped. Angela (Bro's gf) and bro bought more stuff. But I did end up one necklace richer, and a hundred bucks poorer. Sigh. Yes. I did it again. Something good came out of it too. At least I decided what to get for the gift exchange with the girls. Ha...Certainly something different that I used to buy in previous years....I'm excited to see their reaction...Shhh...Angela came back with a wrap skirt from Bum, which I think I'm going back to buy it...Perhaps I'll head down tomoro if I have time. Nice.
It so happened that Jackson and Sin Tze and their gang went to Suntec for late night shopping too. Towards the later part of the night, he rang me up and it so happened that we were just a few shops away from each other. Met up and talked crap for a good 10min before we bade farewell for more bargains. *grin*
First time I saw Jackson since he came back from Australia a month ago. We've been saying we want to meet up for the longest time, but never found the time. Either I'm too caught up with work, or he's out with his mates. But well, we did agree that we will try to find a day this week for dinner. We'll see though. He's going back for summer school on 2 Jan...that's technically another 2 more weeks or so. And though I refused to admit that I will give him something (I kept telling him I aint gonna give him anything), I've decided to give him a watch. Honestly speaking, I do want to give him something (bday + Xmas), but I really have no idea what to give him. Sweaters - he has tonnes. Shirts - he's still schooling, no use for shirts. He wears Polo Ts, but given that that's the only thing he wears, he already has lotsa to boot. Wallet - he just bought himself one a couple days ago. Damn. So, I figured a watch is the best deal so far. The thing is, he told me he intend to reward himself with a Tag Heur next year (read: soon). Talk about "poor" student. Anyways...I figured he can wear the one I give until he buys himself the Tag. At least I figured that he would stick with the watch I give him for a tad longer before he gets the Tag. Ok, settled. Unless I can think of something better to give him. Now, the challenge is getting him a watch that he likes and will wear. That's the tough cookie. Sigh. I have in mind alredy to get one with metal strap, but that posed the next challenge -- His wrist size. Urgh. Nvm, I figured that I will buy, then if it doesn't fit, I will bring him back to the shop to adjust and fix it. Alritey!
Ok, gotta wake early tomoro (again). Wonder why on earth my weekends morning are spent so sickeningly. But well, I guess tomoro is different. Going to "visit" my grandad with my granny. Hmm...Just remembered that I brought some Xmas cards back to write (for office one)...Seems like I wouldn't have time for that this weekend now. And I'm nursing a sore throat on my right side (God wonders why it's half a side) that just sprang up 2hrs ago. Sigh. Hear me croak. To bed now...
