The holidays have been marvellous so far, not in terms of the things i did (which were nothing spectacular) but as i was telling some friends, it's really the freedom of doing what you want whenever you want, and not having to do what you don't want to do! It sucks when you read, sit and stone or surf and feel this niggling sense of guilt. Now, i can do anything with wild abandon! HAHA
I caught What Happened in Vegas. Cameron Diaz still has an amazing body, but she has aged. It shows especially on her face - her skin has lost its radiance and is sort of...brown. And dull. It makes me worried really - if a millionaire movie star with the best makeup artists looks so run down, where then does that leave me? Sure, contentment and joy are the best anti-aging agents, but i can't possibly manufacture and store them in little perfume bottles and spray whenever needed can i? Anyway, this chick flick is not bad. The ending is a little abrupt, but it's funny and sweet and entertaining, exactly what romantic comedies are supposed to be. Next up, Made of Honour!
I tried something new recently. Darren and i cycled from Pasir Ris through the Changi Village park connector all the way to East Coast Park - it was a breeze for him as he does it so often, but i found it quite a challenge, especially when there are kerbs and sharp turns. And it hurts between the legs. 3 1/2 hours of sitting on a narrow seat does that to you. It got easier the second time round, and i'm going to do it again this Friday! And, in a pathetic attempt to expand my social circle, i pitifully asked Darren to introduce me to his friends. I'm not sure what to make of his response to my plea: he gave me a look, chuckled, and said he will "see what he can do". Right. That's kind of him. I guess. At least he didn't go: HAHAHAKAHMINGGETTINGDESPERATEHEREAREN'TWE which he is apt to do, i feel.
Also, Loretta, Nuru, Kavi and i went to Bangkok for a couple of days! I had a great time, the company was awesome for most parts, we just shopped, walked and ate. The apartment we stayed at had an indoor and outdoor pool and we began each morning with a short refreshing dip, before digging in to the mouth-watering breakfast spread. Life is good (:
