without love we perish

A meeting of two old young adults - a tribute to my grandma

and so the last time we met was chinese new year,and hardly had anything constructive to say to each other.
it brought me some comfort to see wendy so cheerful after so long.well,she was never in depression mode, but seeing the good old whiny wendy brings me back to the 67 class bench.
If you go to Marina Square and somehow end up in Changing Appetites, i strongly recommend you do not try the CA Sirloin steak.meat was tough but the serving was so huge i left it half-untouched.Jensen abandoning food is a big thing, you know.And the calamari samurai (i dunno where the samurai comes from,but if i had a sword i'd chop the chef up) has nothing to compliment on.it was rather tasteless,the squid was as springy as your Pentel eraser can go,and we had to take it with a pinch of salt.i mean really put salt on it and eat it.never mind,its a figure of speech.
and we talked of nothing of much importance, of the past, of our present, and most notably, the future that is a total blur.we can only paint this picture that we will be slaves of the economy,probably wearing office wear day in day out, praying for friday to descend from the heavens and pick us up from the slums of Work.I will not dwell on this topic, because i believe there is a lot more opportunities to dampen your spirits as well as mine when we talk about the coming years another time.
and of course we got the tickets for "Over The Hedge",which i somehow psycho-ed her to watch without any prior knowledge of what it's all about.then it's back to more food at Coffee Club.and it was much better this time.
i ordered a candied apple crumble,she ordered a tiramisu.i ate a candied apple crumble and half her tiramisu sans sour strawberry.i can still feel the ripples from the tiramisu swimming in my stomach right now.the tiramisu was quite a treat,while i wouldn't suggest you get the crumble unless you're an apple fan.it's not that great and not worth the $6.50.and i guess the little fumble of mistaking tiramisu and apple crumble as cakes did cost her quite a few bucks.but i guess the ambience and company more than makes up for it.(Guys,nice place to bring a girl on a weekday,it's quiet and the atmosphere is great.nice decor,comfortable seats.and it was almost empty at 330.)
and we laughed all the way throughout the movie.i haven't had such thigh-slapping non-stop laughter for as long as my memory goes.sure got me in a great mood.
and all these done while her boyfriend's in Australia.he's probably having fun with bikini blondes.haha.
and i wonder when it will be when we can have such passive fun again.she'll be slogging in her office,i'll be mugging like a geek.but no doubt there will be another day when we have fun again.i promise.

i say,if you miss someone and wants to meet him/her, ask them out.there is no point waiting for the other party to initiate.cliche: your destiny is in your hands.pick up your phone and dial 1800-MISS-YOU.They will appreciate everything,unless you mess up real bad.
