i had the nicest wkenddddddddddd. :) ugh wish i didnt have to go back to work tmw.. but i'm glad i enjoyed myself the last few days.. the worst thing is when u have a tiring long wk at work and end up not doin anything fun over the wkend.. some rejuvenation is in order! For some weird reason i was craving wine.. i dun usually CRAVE wine la.. its quite rare.. so when i was having some withdrawal symptoms i called my alco partner in crime ( she's called malibooze for a reason ;) ) and practically begged her to do something on friday night. Shola, mal n i met at orchard n made our way to dempsey.. took a nice walk uphill (wearing heels was abit of a mistake) to Hacienda. Ok all the places in dempsey are bloody gorgeous la.. such nice alfresco chillout joints.. i loveeee. We got there at 8.40 and happy hour was on until 9pm so we decided to order like all our drinks one shot haha.. might as well make use of happy hour right.. not like we're rolling in money. We ended up ordering 7 drinks.. the guy taking our order couldnt seem to come to terms with the fact that the three of us wanted to order so many drinks.. he kept making sure that it was juz for the three of us.. poor fella. We got the lychee martini, green apple martini, cosmopolitan, mojito, peach margarita, bellini and a hoegarden... weirdly enough i ended up not getting wine.. was layzie to choose la i'm such a fusspot so decided to stick wit the cocktails. Most cocktails were $10 durin happy hour ($15 otherwise), bellini was $13 and the hoegarden was $9.. not sure of the non happy hour prices for the last two but think its plus $5 la.. then we got cajun wedges and a cheese pizza ( i have bestowed my vegetarian-ness onto the girls).. cant remember how much the food was but e 3 of us paid like around $30 each for drinks & food. Prawn boy joined us a little later.. n he came bearing gifts for all of us!! 50 points for prawn! :) Sho n i got a little bat keychain..its quite cute .. looks a little bit lyk prawn :) And he got mal a ring.. engaged already la those two.. coupling of the year or wattttt ;) Since i had work the next day i had to leave by tennish.. so uncool right.. sigh.. but i had lyk the most "bomb diggity in the pants" time.

Saturday afternoon rolls around.. im tired as hell after work but determined to make the most of my semi off day.. was supposed to meet boyfriend but he was realli tired n konked out so i decided to go town by myself.. get a book.. have yummy coffee or something.. then prawn called n said he n mal were thinking of gettin a drink so we all decided to hang out together-gether la. I met the laubirds at chijmes.. we had drinks & dinner at cosafe. I got a glass of white wine (yay finally!) which was yuummmmyyyyy.. for food we shared the fish & chips, margherita pizza (again with the veggieness) and garlic bread. I thought the food was really good and i was super stuffed.. and happy high from my one glass of wine. Shola joined us a little later n we decided to go to Gotham.. we're quite the spontaneous bunch.. which is not always a good thing esp since i was so not dressed for clubbing. But its ok i'm off the market anyways ;) Gotham was fun as usual.. we got in free thanks to prawn's powderfoo networking haha.. left around 4 and went home happy & satisfied that i made the most of my saturday.. but also missing the boyfriend leetle bit la.

Sunday afternoon.. i wake up at 1ish.. on saturday Siva n I made plans to have hi tea at sheraton hotel on sunday so called him to confirm the plans.. everything was good to go so i made reservations at 3.30. We actually got there on the dot.. so proud of our punctuality.. we're usually always late cuz uncle realli takes forever to get ready.. he takes longer than me ok.. i dun understand how that's possible. The reason we decided on hi tea at Sheraton was cuz i had the citibank 1 for 1 hi tea promo that was expring end of the month so decided to check it out la. The hi tea served was the english kind.. not international.. so it was served on a 3 tier stand with scones,pastries and finger sandwiches.



Ok.. im officially addicted to scones.. hot scones with cream n jam.. im salivating juz thinkin about it now.. i wantttt moreeeee! The selection was pretty good.. and quite filling.. we were both full but it was the just nice kinda full-ness.. not the stuffed till you cant walk straight kind which is wat we usually get ourselves into heh. We decided to jalan-jalan arnd town for abit then he went for prayers n i went swimmingggggg. I love swimming in the evening.. the pool's so empty and the reflection of the lights on the water is sooo pleeettyyy. Ended of my eventful wkend with a mountain of home-cooked food :) I had rice, rasam, an assortment of veggie stuff like tofu n mock meat.. n chips.. n raita.. then i had a bowl of strawberry cheesecake ice-cream :) But its ok i refuse to feel guilty.. i mean i did go for a swim so i guess its ok right (although the swim was to counter my foodlicious friday,saturday and sunday afternoon) :)

Ughhhh.. i have to sleep sooonnn.. workkkk.. but thurs is a holiday so i have something to look forward to.. yay!! Thank God for public holidays man.
