Unchartered Territory

I have been on such "mood" this morning till now. It is now mid-afternoon and I am listening to The Cure.

My only highlight was house tour with Mr. Em. Which he thanked me politely and not modestly. Knowing him!

I had a few run-ins today, which caused lunch to be delayed until 2.00pm. I went for lunch with my all-time favourite person, me, myself and I. (Narcissist Shine 0 what else is new!)

Tonight, we have a get-together CNY dinner to attend. I don't know if I am looking forward to it. My body feels so drained and my eyes, heavier by the minute. Since I had late lunch, I feel even worse to get back to work.. I am so completely exhausted!

As much as I want to see them and finish work early, I will not be able to. Yesterday night I made a decision to go, and I am living with the consequences and will not impose my selfish wants unto my friends. I will attend the dinner as expected. As much as I hate to put up with petty chats, today I will have to wipe that frown off my face and put in 200% effort. It is CNY and my friends have bothered to make this arrangement.

I've known a few of them for more than 17 years. I can always say that fun is guaranteed with this usual crowd. We normally meet up once a month to do the "catch up" thing and NEVER, NEVER mention the ugly 4 letter word... W* *K!

I am hoping to get some quality photos this evening. And getting me psyched up for this dinner. It is so exciting! SC and B's first CNY together as married couple! Maybe next year we see SC & B Jr at CNY get-togethers?!! Hee..

I wore my glasses to work this morning... I haven't done that since April 2004. My girls said I looked like a Disciplinary Teacher. I was appalled. Well, true enough, I look dreadful this morning and my eyes could hardly open. It's a miracle I woke up today.

I will never put myself through such physical torture again. Remind me, slap me, if you must, but remind me!
