Yay, i finally went out today after a 2 weeks' break. Haha. As mentioned in my previous blog, i left my hse at abt 9, went to kovan's mac for my breakfast and to pass time, then i took a bus down to the national lib and spent more than 2 hrs reading there. Liz msged lay kuan n I to let us know that she'll be late in meeting us cos she's going to see a doc. She ar..... she was down with fever on Mon, but she didn't go see a doc and went to work anyway on Tues. And she finally decided to go see one today. Anyway, i went to meet Lay Kuan and accompanied her to an interview at Katriel's. Have heard of the shop, but wasn't clear on what they sold. The things they sell are not really jewellery. Cos when i think of jewellery i think of stuff they sell at lee hwa and tiffany's. It's more of accessories? Earrings, necklaces. One difference being they are made of semi-precious stones, gemstones. Another significant difference is that they cost a lot more. A pair of earrings can reach $100. But they are semi-precious stones, uniquely designed by qualified designers. So, quite worth it la. And i told lay kuan that if she gets the job, i want to know how much her staff discount is. Haha.

After that, we went to Marina Sq in search of food. Spent a lot of time deliberating over what to eat. And we finally decided on Swensen's. Lay Kuan, who can be considered a big eater, decided to order the petit salad. She didn't believe that the serving size would be small. So she got a shock when she saw it. Haha. It was really petite. Then we ate our ice-creams. I ordered the sticky chewy choc. And it was soo sweet. Liz finally came to meet us after a while, and she ordered ice cream too, despite the fact that she had a cough. After chatting for a while, we went shopping! We actually planned to watch a movie. But Liz met us late, and Kuan was meeting her friends for dinner. So we went shopping instead. I finally bought a pair of shoes! haha. I rarely buy shoes. And they're a real nice pair of no-heel pumps. Liz bought a pair too. Then we went to another shop, where liz got tempted to buy a pair of wedges. They're v nice, and i love the colour! She spent a lot of time deliberating whether to buy them or not when she decided to walk ard and think abt it first. Haha. Felt a little bad towards the sales girl cos she was really nice and helpful.

Then, we went into this shop which was really charming. The wallpaper, decorations were all very Victorian. And the clothes. They have a lot of clothes with lace, and all the trimmings that make a girl feminine. I think Candy would not even want to step into the shop. Haha. But the clothes are all very sweet and feminine, very old victorian type. And they have nice shoes too. Liz bought a pair. Haha.

After that...... we went to PS. Cos kuan was meeting her friends there, and i wanted to go to spotlight to get sth.
Kuan met her friends, i got my stuff. Liz n I bought some bread n cheese outside PS where carrefour was having this French Village thing. Then it was time to go home.

Okay, halfway through this blog, I realised that I haven't blogged like this for quite some time. Describing what i did throughout the day in some details. I guess i was just cooped up at home for too long. A day out like this helped me recover from my brooding. Hah. I'm not like filled with happiness or all that bullshit la, but i'm feeling better. A little.

Living to get the approval of people around me is tiring. More than I ever thought it would be.
