hmm friends have been asking me what have I been doing since I've been back.. counting back, it's been 5 days! omg.. time flies just like that and it's damn scary... dreading the night I've to fly back and the airport scene again.. oh well, let's just shove that thought to the back of my head...
first two important things are my facial and haircut appointments! I haven't had a facial for the past 9 months and esp after winter and cold weather, my face is super dry and so I was told by the beautician I need to super hydrate my face... and of coz, waiting for months to come back and have my haircut! haha I know that almost everyone I know are ultra reluctant to get a haircut in London coz of the price and so everyone just "tahan" and wait till they go back Singapore, including me!
I went back to office for my "Amoy feast" yesterday. hmm.. I thought I'd be gorging myself crazy but oddly, as much as I was excited over it, my appetite shrunk somehow! I was just plain happy to see the food laid in front of me but my stomach just couldn't take much of the food. I couldn't even finish my fishball noodles! unexplainable and bizzare. Maybe the hot weather has dampened my appetite for food? I just feel so bloated... might be indisgestion... hmm
After our Amoy Feast: with colleagues back home, good to see Wai Lit again after so long. He's also back from HK office for the Chinese New Year
Interesting fact btw... friends always tell me that when I go back SG, I'll find that the MRT trains are much bigger and heehee it is true! The Tube in London is really much smaller with only one row of standing space between the rows of seats but whoa back home, it can easily accomodate 3 rows of standing space! I sound like a mountain tortoise I know, but after squeezing in the crowded London Tube trains for 9 months, I am suddenly very impressed by the (air-conditioned) MRT trains here haha. (even Bishan station is so different now!)
Just tonight I met my buddies Min and Mimi (aka Emily.. I hope she decides on a perm name soon!) and we had some nice Jap food at Sushi Tei. I love Jap food and I really miss places like Sushi Tei and Ichiban Boshi back home. It's not easy to find a cheap and reasonable Jap place in London.. or maybe I haven't come across one.
