It has been a busy week and am so glad it's Fri! Met up with Ms wong and had a nice lil catch-up session. This was after a long walkabout at Raffles City, bumping into 3 Berkeley ppl at diff spots in shopping mall and being turned away from 2 full-house Jap eating places. We ended up at Canele for dinner cum dessert. The Brioche Burger I ordered was pretty good... but was like surprised by the Chestnut ice-cream cum crepe dessert we shared... 'cos for some weird reason I kept thinking Chestnut=Water Chestnut... so when my ice-cream tasted nothing like that I guess I couldnt hide my surprise :P Earlier today also had special lunch date with tph at Crystal Jade... And earlier yest dear Buddy comforted me after I just got pretty upset with myself & state of affairs arising from some meeting... I'm so happy to have such dear friends around me... For me, in-person interaction beats virtual interaction hands down... (despite being shy and AS) I'm actually quite baffled why ppl can 'sustain' so long and remain so active on Facebook when things you do aren't even real.... In fact, am rather irritated with certain features on Facebook (yeah, I'm weird) but i suppose I shall talk abt it in a separate posting next time :) Time to rest now.

D & D

The D & D we have been planning so long for finally took place at Shangri-La last night... And am relieved that everything went pretty smoothly! Though I was only in charge of a sub-set of the entire event (VIP/Registration) and the team leaders kinda ran most of the show I guess I did pick some valuable experiences. And after unpleasant memories of my dept D & D 1.5 yrs back I was somewhat hesitant to be the stand-on-stage pass trophies/LD prizes girl and kinda requested that I do only a watered-down version... Glad that things really weren't as complicated/ intimidating as the worry wart me had imagined it to be.. and on hindsight I should have been capable of doing all the stuff the whole night. But aiyah at least for a start... paranoid a bit better :P

Also realised that I am really not a v graceful person... So I was vain and tried to do a french pedicure for the evening... but for some reason I managed to (very obviously) ruin the white bit on one nail the very night I had the pedicure... Then was v upset and thought ok, on Sat morning I shall do something to the that toenail... Then when armed with nail polish remover the next day I very absentmindedly forgot that fingers had nail polish too then like kena tissue stuck to forefinger fingernail... Then er, like got one blemished fingernail and toenail now. So in the end I gave up trying to salvage the situation... Lesson learnt: No french mani/pedicure for me next time :P
