and the craziness of work continues.. its been a never-ending pile since i got back from my phuket trip ( which i will blog about soon enough).. wish i was as lucky as mal who wasnt dreading going back to work after our vacay. Can't wait for the CNY break.. wish i was going on another holiday though.. haha.. too greedy.

So the boyfriend and i broke up.. yep.. after almost three years im single again. Feels alright.. its definitely for the best. Had my first proper night out as a single gal ( i hate spelling it as "gal" but "girl" just doesnt have e same effect ya?) on Saturday and it was pretty awesome. Ended work then made my way to novena to meet kaartsy and we went over to latsy's house for some quality time wit baby T. We had lunch first at this cafe near latsy's house and the food there was really quite good and very affordable! I had this yummy veggie pasta for 6 bucks and kaart n i shared a veggie pizza that was 9 bucks and it was big enough for two.. Wish i had a nice cafe-ish chillout place near my house tooooooo. Actualli there's tons of eateries near my house.. just havent really explored la.. should get on that *makes mental note*. Latsy and shina's new place is soooooo nicely done up.. very very tasteful. We were hanging out in latsy's room for abit and would have probably just camped out there if not for triston repeating over and over about how he wants to go "twimming". TWIMMING! How cute la.. i'm so loving the fact that he's talking more and more.. the other day Aunty Nancy called and put him on the phone and he was like "yagi come house".. haha.. how not to love him madly.

I left to go home and get ready before meeting sho & kam.. we were suppossed to do dinner at Timbre but the place was so super packed and there was a major waiting list so we decided on good old BQ Bar instead.

Its been a while since i went to BQ and i was excited about the yummy falafel.. we got that and calamari to share.. so good man.. BQ rocks. Sho brought a bottle of champagne wine for us to share so the three of us made our way to UE square.. i wanted to drink by the river but my suggestion was veto-ed by the spoilers :( haha.. actualli thinking back i guess its a good thing we were at UE square instead cuz all three of us were too scared to pop the champagne so for ten minutes we were tugging at the Cork in an attempt to pop it gently. Ten minutes i kid you not.. Sho finally got it open hahah.. wish we had taken a video of the whole "process". The champagne was really really good.. i'm the kind that doesn't drink to get high.. i really actually enjoy my wine and champagne and was really lapping this one up.. needless to say i ended up a lil tipsy :) We decided to check out the scene at Gotham and got there at 2ish.. close to 3. Ok.. what is with the band!? No offence to anyone but i wasnt really feeling the band. Other than bumping into some friends that i havent seen in a while Gotham in my opinion was a flop.. hope its not indicative of the future of that place cuz its one of my favourite clubs.

We left Gotham at 4ish and made our way to JEANS!!! haha.. dont judge me.. i just knew it would be the happening ending to my night since Gotham was such a disappointment.. and we werent even planning to go up.. some of our friends were clubbing there so wanted to meet them after the club closed. Was pretty much an IJ reunion outside jeans la.. there's really too many of us running around.. not that i'm complaining :) After some bonding sessions and a couple of pep-talks we finally bit adieu to boat quay. I got home at 6.. wow.. its been forever since i hung out till that late.. it was good fun but i still stand by my "not so much into clubbing" policy so don't think i'd be repeating very often.. or maybe i don't know.. things don't always happen the way you plan so maybe i shouldn't speak to soon hey.. plus clubbing IS alot more fun when ure single and ready to mingle :)

First night out as a "single gal".. pretty much a success i would say.. thanks to everyone who rocked it. :)
