Since my parents left, I have to say that I am actually coping quite well without them...how unexpected. I have cooked, bought groceries, cleaned up the house and watered the garden without fail...hey I am pretty capable..actually I always have been, I was just plain lazy before =P When I say that I am coping without them..I mean that I am coping without their financial and emotional support...I am wondering how long this will actually last...must not go on shopping spree...
On Friday night, bf took me to Harbour Town for a bit of random shopping. He was on a mission to buy indoor soccer boots and a pen for his mum. It was very quiet when we got there...people must have much better things than shop at HT on a Friday night...it was nonetheless quite fun for us. We shopped quite a bit, we dominated the bottom floor and I ended buying clothes and so did he, as well as a few other knick-knacks. After our shopping adventure we were already getting quite famished..for once we didn't put food on top of our priority list. We headed to Uncle Billy's and I ordered the favourite, 3 egg congee..oh yum...as well as hot and sour soup, crab and sweet corn sweet and a seafood hor fun...it was so satisfying! As we ate I got a phonecall from Wei2, another bbt night was planned for us and with such good timing too. We got to Utopia and it was so packed! Saw Heston and Christina again and they actually stopped to talk to us as well...I don't know if I can get used to those 2 being together it's just very odd! It took quite a while for us to occupy a table and then soon after Jas arrived with a bloated stomach...poor chicken, we suggested remedies for her. Then for some reason we started talking about ghosts, which triggered freaky stories...they were very freaky indeed! Not sure if I actually believe in ghosts, I haven't encountered anything strange (touch wood), just that I have heard a lot of stories from many different people...it kind of make me wonder a lot about things...eep, best not start talking about these things when I'm home alone...next time though! Anyway, bbt was good, I randomly picked bbt number 23, which turned out to be horlicks...I prefer it warm. I went home that night and slept pretty soundly.
On Saturday, after dorky finished work, we went grocery shopping at garbos. We browsed a bit first but there was nothing really that we wanted to buy...we just looked at all the cute puppies at the pet shop...I really want a puppy =( We entered Woolies at around 4, hoping that there would be a meat sale for us, sadly...the prices didn't really drop at all. We bought steak and a few good ingredients for our dinner. As we got back into the car and started driving off, I suggested sausages to go with our dinner. It's funny how you always think of things afterwards, well the idea seemed good enough for us to stop at another woolies...woop! we got lamb sausages! We got back to my house and began marinating our steaks straight away. Dorky slept on my bed...what a pig, as I watered the garden. I made some noise and stared at the sleeping monster until he came round and then we started preparing our wonderful dindin! We worked pretty well, I made the mash potatoes, peas and gravy while he cooked us the meats. In the end, our dinner looked pretty good! Everything tasted awesome and we both had seconds...nomnomnoms. Afterwards, we watched Narnia: Prince Caspian, it wasn't too bad...reminded me a lot of the movie Lord of the Rings though, but without blood. What a great night for us both hehe..thankyou once again!
On Sunday, I had left over steak for brunch haha...so much protein! Then at noon, bf picked me up again...I was going to go watch him play indoor soccer with his highschool friends. We got there and I was the only girl amongst 20+ guys...it was interesting listening to them all talk...very 'manly' indeed. I contributed to the games...I stopped the ball from going off court/field and passed it to people...woop woop! I got a few thankyous as well...I guess that was the extent of my exercise for the week haha! After the games, I went back home to water the garden then I had dinner at dorky's house. We had duck rice, uncle's favourite ahah, cute! I ended up eating all the plum sauce, without knowing...oops and yum! Then we watched Resident Evil on Foxtel..zombies...arghhh!!
Now it's Monday and I just made curried egg sandwiches with spinach, a leafy salad with balsamic dressing and also banana and choc-chip muffins...yum-o! Sigh...but now I should get down to cleaning...that's it for now!
