An end to the delay..

Much apologies for the prolonged absence, I've seriously just been lazy and a bit busy :p

I've decided that in the spirit of New Years and with resolutions flying hopelessly about, I am going to declare this year as the year of travel, and Bailey's Irish Cream. I don't see a problem with the latter, but the former is a bit more expensive and requires some effort. Nevertheless, I refuse to be beaten down or discouraged, since its only still January and a bit too early for that, but I do hope I'll get to travel a bit more this year than I did last year...

And in preparation for all this travelling (and drinking), I bought myself a camera :D I am quite thrilled with it, though now I have less of an excuse not to put up embarrassing pictures of funny moments :) A tough choice between a Sony cybershot and a Panasonic Lumix, and lots of tugging on them heart strings later, the Lumix won :)

I've also been consuming a lot more food than I need to. In particular, a visit to P.S. cafe for dessert had me completely blown over. That evenings choice of dessert was lemon pudding served in a moat of lemon custard sauce, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.. A serving big enough for three people I think, but yours truly managed 90% of it on her own.. I really don't remember how I got home that night :p

Another mention-worthy meal: Saturday all-day breakfast at Swensons :D French toast with maple syrup, cheese sausages, sauteed mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, chicken ham and scrambled eggs, juice and tea- absolutely divine *dreamy sigh*.. And after all this, the day ended with long overdue Teh Halia and prata at Niqqi's Cheese Prata :D I miss that place so much... :(

And friends.. where would we be without them :) Asanka was making a stop on his ship at the Jurong shipyard last week, so a reunion after 5 years ensued.. I was reminded once again that there's just something priceless about the friends you grow up with in school :) Nothing has changed, yet so much has, but at the same time, you know that they'll always be there for you :) Also met up with the a few of the NUS peeps after a long time- so much to catch up on, so little time.. And the girls.. Seeing them always makes the day better :) Still lots more socialising to be done in the next couple of weeks, something to definitely look forward to ;)

Work's just not the same without Jo around.. :( I particularly miss her very audible laughing across the office and companionship for anything dessert-related :D But I know she's gonna make a wonderful doctor, so all the best to her :) Wendy leaves this Friday too, so there's gonna be one less cool kid around :(

And on that note, I shall end this rather lengthy post, and return to my book- which has also been neglected and is now demanding attention... But with the usual promises of more posts to come in the next couple of weeks.. Oh and Gong Xi Fa Cai to everyone!
