~ A Great Day... ~
10:31:00 pm
My heart is telling me to stay and wait
But my brain is telling me go away
I wish I could listen to my heart
But you simply showed no interest
There's really nothing more I can do
I'm tired of playing the waiting game
Why is it always me
Having to initiate things?
I wish I could have you by my side
But God doesn't permit it
Therefore,
I'm taking a step back before I fall in too deep
I loved you, I truly do
But I guess
It just wasn't meant to be for me...
That it was just a wishful thinking on my part*Sigh*... What a cold, cold night... It just hasn't stopped raining since last night... With such a weather, it just made me feel so emotional...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Anyway, I really had a good time today with 2 of my colleagues, Sri & Aina... Went bowling @ Marina Superbowl after work and had dinner @ Esplanade thereafter...
Firstly, work... Today was just a very BUSY (and I mean it!) day... In fact, we had 2 patients who suddenly turned ill... One, from no oxygen to 100% non-rebreather mask... The other, from no oxygen to 30% venti-mask... It was horrid, I tell you... I almost couldn't finish my work... Actually, most of us blamed it on the Chinese New Year decorations... Not that we're racist or what, but somehow, it's just a
pantang or superstition...
For example, during the Lantern Festival last year, our NO went to hang lanterns all over the ward... I tell you, it was HELL for the next 3 days... There was like no peace... The ward never felt so busy... Not until the lanterns were brought down, everything went back to normal... Within an instant! And now, they hung up mini-lanterns all over the ward... And as you can see, the ward got SUPER busy again...
You may say that we are very
kalut or 'old-fashioned' with our thinking but sometimes, it just better to be on the safe side... Cuz you'll never know what might happen next...
Next up... Bowling! It was very nice to go bowling again... It's been a long, LONG time since I last went bowling... Anyway, the queue @ Marina Superbowl was kinda long but somehow, I still insisted on wanting to play bowling and not to watching a movie... *Hehe*... So, my dearest
sisters decided to be on the waiting list... Prior to playing bowling, we went to the arcade to play some racing games... Honestly, both me and Sri kinda dragged Aina into the arcade since she is not really into game arcades... But guess what? We actually got her addicted to it! *Haha*... After the arcade session, we decided to proceed on to Esplanade for our meal since the Superbowl did not give us a call... But thankfully, they gave us one just before we stepped out of Marina Square... And hence, the bowling session commenced... *Hehe*...
My first attempt... The ball went into the 'longkang'... *Haha*... Apparently, the ball kept going into the 'longkang'... Okay... I will skip, skip, skip... *Hee*... The best and funny part... I was going to swing the ball into the lane when the bowling ball actually fell at the back of me... *HAHA*... Oh gosh! I was SUPER PAISEH!! And the most funniest? Sri was going to swing the ball into the lane when it actually slipped out of her hand, hit against the system where the bowling ball comes out and rolled into the next lane... *HAHAHA*... Thank goodness that there was no one using the next lane and that it didn't hit the glass wall... *Hehe*...
The 'pretty' bowler... *Haha*... One thing: Don't ever bowl in skirts!
Sri & Aina
Me & Sri
Me & AinaThe after effect of bowling? An aching arm and a sore thumb... In fact, we were kidding just now that each of us can take MC with the various reasons, me with an aching arm, Sri with a swollen thumb and Aina with a chopped arm... *Hehe*... Yes yes, we were already talking nonsense then... *Hee*...
It was followed by dinner @ Esplanade... Had North Indian cuisine today... I simply loved the ambience of the restaurant... It was just so cozy and romantic... With a candle in the middle of the table... How romantic can that be?
Cozy ambienceAnyway, we had
naan! Yeah, my favourite! With some yummy vegetables, chicken curry and tandoori chicken... *Burp*... =P... Ended having our dinner there for more than an hour... At the end of it, they provided us with a fingerbowl of warm water with lime in it... And it made our hands smelt with lime... All in all, I rate the food, service and ambience 5 stars out of 5... I was just SO impressed!!
Yummy food!Anyway, we were served with
papadom and some dips before the food was being served... The dips contained sweet, sour and spicy types... My only thought then, the dips reminds us of Life... It can be sweet, sour, spicy or bitter at times... It's only up to us to decide what we want to choose it to be... =)
Went home with Sri via cab... Really had a great talk with her on the way back... Just made us open up our bottled and troubled feelings (not for each other hor!)...
Just to sum it up... I really had a great time! Thanks guys! *Hugs*...
