And every hour of every day I'm learning more
The more I learn, the less I know about before
The less I know, the more I want to look around
Digging deep for clues on higher ground
I am trying to renovate the Bakery (again).
Its sorta like I've stripped it bare & am supposed to put on a new coat of paint. Apparently i'm slacking on the 2nd part of this procedure - the Bakery looks darn boring now, no?
I was trying to figure out how to create blog folders - with folders, I can perhaps do more things & make the Bakery more interesting? - with phoenich's help, I realise this is a luxury I would have to pay for. Bah!! *pout*
Lets see, what have I done this weeks thus far...

Monday I went jogging after work. Meant to run to YCK stadium & meet dundun & run some more with her. But halfway to the stadium, my left ankle acted up again. Sob sob...could only walk slowly to meet my sweet love. We can't run in the stadium - the spotlights went off just as I reached, like taunting me like dat. We chatted a bit; the bastard's back!!
Morris d*t*d dundun for supper, & she roped in me, her chaperone. 1st stop: J8 Coffee Bean. I drank a small cinnamon ice blended, which consumed at 10.30pm effectively kept me awake til 4.30am. The caffeine really made me hiiIggH. Morris' interesting & fun to talk to. 2nd stop: Jalan Kayu prata shop. Hah! The famed jln kayu prata is but, so so lah...'S'pore's answer to the croissant' at lower pierce reservoir is still the best! Service was slooww too, like Fong Sheng's Abang prata shop. True to expectation, I spotted friends there. So did dundun! So did Morris!! Saw Lili (she's got bloody good glowing skin!). Which led me to Xuanhao (who's as usual full of crap) & Alex (my favourite mortal!!). Well, its a good start to the holiday.
Fang's pet peeve 1: You smoking within my sniff-range.
Fang's pet peeve 2: You marathon-smsing in my company. (wat? Am I not pleasant enough that you need consort with the phone?! Rude.)

Tuesday Woke up dazed....caffeine hangover. Can't do much, cos I slept late & hence woke up late. Darn, a morning wasted! My family did a family meal at this dim sum restaurant, my cousins joined us. I like having meals with my family, save that it involves my father & sometimes my 2nd sis. My father left mid-way - that's when the party started rolling! We ordered a bloody load of food...I was so stuffed! The dim sum was delicious, til there was too much of them. Too much of a good thing is gross.
MY mom & I followed my cousins home after lunch. In the 2 hrs or so I was at their house, I managed to catch up with Liting & BoEn quite some bit. This is great. Cos I've been so caught up with my own life the past years I've neglected them. Bad fang, bad fang...other than my own immediate family, they are the blood ties I am closest to & care for. I've recruited them into Operation MC, dis coming sat! Keke....
Went home, damn sleepy...but barely sat down & warmed my butt, I've to up & hit the street again. Appointment with Charles, for dinner & movie (no jye & silver, I still do not think this constitutes as a date). But, no dinner for me absolutely. My rummy tummy's all dimmy summy. I was punctual....or so I tot. I reached orchard mrt at 6pm, proud & accomplished that I was right on time. Til I realised 'Opps, we are supposed to meet at 6.30pm!' Sighh...so my dear friends out there, please try to empathise with Little Miss Late here - punctuality & I are simply not meant to be! Hung out at Borders as I waited for my fren. Enigma got a new album out! Pity I can't sample it at there & then.
My Hari Raya flick: WARRIORS OF HEAVEN & EARTH It's, a pretty good show. Some editing techniques used are cool: old school western film editing used in this modern production with an ancient china context - cute. I like the characters especially. Costumes that are bizarre but pretty; strong actors; characters rich with idiosyncrasies. Alas, the story...its ending is !!!! I'm scandalised with its ridiculouness.
Best part of the show is that I've found my new love!
Introducing Nakai Kiichi!
Yesss....I like middle-aged oriental man.

Wednesday Workday once again.
Lunch with dundun, shuping & morris. Hmm, should say 'I busy' next time dundun got d*t*e with Mr. M. Chicken rice. A lot of rice. Was torn between being stringent bout my carbo intake & wasting food. Wasting good food for sheer vanity is doubtlessly the bigger sin. Must keep this in mind....
$5 down.
Bought a new shawl. Chose canary yellow (yellow yellow dirty fellow...but I like!) which, after closer inspection, got holes! So I boh-bian got to exchange for a bright sky blue (blue, yucks! but I suit...). $15 down.
After work got waylaid by book sale in Bras Basah. Bought 5 books:
1. Slaughterhouse - Bosnia & the Failure of the West
2. Apocalypse Wow!
3. 150 Vegan Favourites (fresh, easy & incredibly delicious recipes you can enjoy every day)
4. The Consumer's Guide to Cat Food (what's in cat food, why its there, & how to choose the best food for your cat)
5. A Fortune-teller Told Me (earthbound travels in the Far East)
$8 down.
Met Jye & Davin for dinner. I tot I only had $2 left. But pouring out my coins, I actually had $4. Shillings are one of the miracle-performers in the world - they doubled my fortune with a blink of the eye!
Davin was damnnnn late. So he treated us to NYDC dessert! *hug silver* As we are scheduled to go steady in about a year's time, Dav & I spend much quality time getting to know each other better. Jye sticks out, figuratively & literally (hahaha...). But my boyfren-to-be sucks. He won't send me home.
Reached home. Mess around with the comp & write blog. Time flies. It's now 3.54am. *yawn*
(4.30am by the time I am done editing)
