blogging from IMH is so unreal. ( Blogged on the 30th of November)
Anyway, I'll combine 2 posts into 1. Today is Deepavali and All Saints' Day. Had to go to church in the morning before rushing to punggol to wakeboard with yongxian and ming chang. I think ill take it up regularly if i have the $ to spare as it is quite expensive and I am thinking of commiting myself to other things. Was quite fun as standing up was not that much of a problem anymore but maintaining balance and posture was still hard. Fell quite a number of times. But anyway. I felt i learnt more today then the other time. Besides, meeting Aileen from NUH was quite a good thing. Felt quite good to be able to talk about wakeboarding to her besides surgery.
Anyway, left for a siesta at Jerzy's house later and got a free lunch and quite a lot of surprises then when i was forced to be the secret operative. Thankfully jerzy doesn't read this page so i can blog about it. His birthday is coming so i am the plenipotentiary who is to negotiate the surprise birthday party for him.
Then went to Fox for my haircut. Took quite some time as business was quite good then. Got it quite cheap too. Anyway, spent a modest sum on presents as usual for jerzy. Took a look at vicz prez @ raoul, before buying something for myself. Its not good to shop during the nov/dec periods cos all the sales start coming in. Kenzo apparently ran out of the thing i wanted to get so now its only available at paragon and no more at taka. But i happened to chance upon Lanvin sale and was rather enamoured of something. Gucci had nice shoes which i think i'll be getting when prices drop. Was thinking of getting birkenstocks actually cos i was dressed most sloppily with slippers today. There are also so many thing to get too but i think the best buy today was something which was selling @ 45 bucks when it is sold @ 60 elsewhere. What a discount. Also i feel vindicated that the prez i shortlisted for vicz is so nice that even the normally disagreeable jerzy was congruent with me.
I think giving something that I really want to my best friend is really something quite hard for me to do cos you always want the best for yourself. Not that I ran out of cash but I think that your good friends only deserve the best and in this case i'll be giving up that raoul tie that i like so much.
