My idyllic Thursday...! =)

So, as random boredom starts crawling into a person's bloodstream, that particular person becomes very bored... Well, in my case, it's due to the fact that I've been pretty much dateless!! (*Gasp*), so I have been spending much time at home...



I dunno about other people, but to me, spending time at home can be, in some ways, therapeutic! *LauGhs*


I kid you not!


Why do I say so? Well, I get to spend quality time with Mummy dearest by going on morning jogs and walks with her around the East Coast Beach! Followed by a lovely local breakfast, and shopping!!! Grocery shopping! =P


Returning home after that is a routined round of me listening to her tell me about the storylines of various random drama serials! FYI, my mummy dearest is very much contended with sitting in front of her whopping 42 inch plasma TV (which she so proudly selected after my previous telly died, and made my daddy pay for the new telly! *LauGhs*) from 10am in the mornings! On average, the telly is left switched on throughout the day, sometimes until wee hours! Which explains the surge in the utilities bill... ...



And of course, being dateless means spare time on your hands, so you would try to...



Make a Caesar salad!

My HUGE serving of salad with alot of greens! I used multi-grain bread as croutons, cos I couldn't find any in the supermarket! (The key to getting the bread as cripsy as croutons is to...toast the bread lar! :P ) The egg yolk unfortunately, came off the egg white cos it wasn't really hard boiled yet...! =(

The finished product!! With nuts and bacon bits as the final top garnish! =)
Say it looks yummy!! Say it!!!

*LauGhs*

I used iceberg lettuce, 2 other types of lettuces, the purplish cabbage (I dont remember vegetable names well! :P), baby carrots, mini tomatoes, one sliced hard-boiled egg, a slice of toasted multi-grain bread as a crouton substitute, nuts and bacon bits as garnishing! And of course, a Caesar salad dressing that I finally found at Cold Storage! (I used the creamier version of dressing cos I like my sauces creamy!) The more local supermarkets like NTUC, etc didn't stock them! The lady at the counter even asked me what's Caesar salad! *LauGhs*

One would also have time in the later bit of the afternoon to chat with friends on MSN and poke friends on Facebook! I had a lovely chat with DarLing MingYun and Bestie Sara via MSN since yesterday, and time sure does fly! Ive known DarLing MingYun since 2001 and Bestie Sara for 11 years! And what DarLing MingYun said to me did make sense and talking to these 2 babes made me realise that it's indeed the truest friends that really know best, and want the best for me! I heart you babes!! =)

And I guessed that, somewhere along the way, I became preoccupied with picking and collecting stones so much so that it became an obsession somewhat...Maybe it has to do with my character; I'm pretty laid back and easy-going when it comes to friends, cos as one mellows and age, one would generally wanna chill out with friends and avoid conflicts... My mantra being "What matters is just being happy!" when Im out with my friends... So more often than not, some stones take my presence for granted and bullies the hell outta me! Yes! Amazingly, I often let my friends get their way, cos I'm honestly, too nice and indecisive, so they often take my indecisiveness as doing what they wanna do... So more often than not, I become some sort like a doormat, if that's the way to describe it! *Hurhur* =(


pZ shall be nicer to herself and her lovely true friends around her from now on!

=)

And on a cheerier note...


I went to the temple to get a fortune lot the other day, cos I've been pretty much down on my luck recently! Boy was I glad that the lot sounded good, it did really give me a new found sense of optimism about life! =)

All's good, 'cept for the bit about family not being safe and that "Things lost wil never be found..." *HurHur* =(

And obviously, I went to help the local economy a wee bit by shopping after that!! *LauGhs* I bought a nice-looking blue top for Mummy! Very chic, it's got blue blings sewn on it! Very fashionable now! She seems to like it! Yayy!! =) I couldn't resist so I had to get one in black for myself! *ChuCkLes* I bought a pair of pretty PINK and gold earrings at a 20% discount and sliver hoop Tiffany and Co inspired earrings as well! I wanted to get this gold off shoulder top, but it was too huge for my liking, since regular jogs around the beach have seen me lose 3kg in like 2 weeks! =D Maybe I shall visit another outlet to get the top...Heh... =P

I popped by Bestie SaRa's mummy's place for some chitchats and Hari Raya tidbits on Wednesday evening and it was real fun to just catch up!! =)

Barney the gay purple dinosaur LURRVES me!! (Pardon my foundation! But Barney seemed to adore it so much! *LauGhs*)

Us 11 years on! I remember those weekly shopping trips and those Neoprint days! And I look like a ghost with my far too fair foundation! *LauGhs* And my Tiffany and Co inspired silver hoop earrings! I like! =)

*Makes a mental note to go for a hair trim soon!*

And I think I'd be heading down to Zouk this coming weekend for some fun cos it's gonna be friends' birthdays! And Ah Boon's wedding dinner this Sunday! (pZ still dunno what to wear!!! *LauGhs*)



This weekend should be fun!! =)



Yayyy!!




*HeaRts*




I am still missing someone imperfectly special still though... pZ's lost a diamond, and maybe once lost, it can't be found... *Remembers "Things lost will never be found.." quote from my fortune lot...*

*siGh*



Oh well, "Que Sara Sara" then...!



On a sidenote, Happy 60th Birthday Daddy! =)
