red-eyed woman on the loose
"my eyesight has been compromised!" - monica (friends).
my left eye was red the whole of last evening. blood shot red. i was walking around town with only one lens. it's not really a thrill when boys think you're flirting with them when all you wanted to do was trying to see clearly with a squinted eye.
after work i walked around raffles place trying to find an optical shop to buy a lens casing. already bought a mini bottle of solution before that. punyela susah carik optician. but found one nonetheless.
met up with jaswant and sophia. sop is back from perth for a week's break. she's studying in uwa now. and she's a taitai in the making. she was doing some shopping and for the first time i went inside some of the atas-atas shops in the new paragon extension. thank goodness i wasn't dressed too shabbily yesterday. so feeling feeling anak orang kaya smalam. pooh-poohing at some of the dresses while sop tried on some. she actually tried on a 2000-dollar dress without actually knowing the price and spent the few minutes in the dressing room trying to figure out why the hell it cost so much. bimbo.
after getting a bottle of red-eye-reducing eye drops, sop treated us to dinner at tambuah mas. fab meal. we were shocked initially. she ordered first while jaswant and i were getting the eyedrops. when we came, on the table there were only plates of rice and lauk lodeh. but because we love her we didn't mind la. turned out that she ordered some more dishes. what a spread. tahu telor, fried chicken, sotong all segala. complete. timo joined us later.
then we headed to lt starbucks and reminisced about the days of yore in poly. lots of laughs. lots of cringing as we recounted the freaks who tried to come on to sop and me. lots of guffaws as we realised jaswant had A LOT of scandals in school. some regrettable, most not. oh i miss poly, i do. so bad.
home at 1130. rested my eyes and resigned to the fact that i might have to wear specs for the rest of the week.
to the person who has made the life one of my loved ones miserable, tak tau nak cakap apa ah. you suck lor, really. and to the other one, to quote from one of ley's favourite blogs (heh):
"such guts. such revolting guts."
