just another day in paradise

If you haven't already realised, the title of this blog comes from the song by Phil Collins, made famous by some r&b artiste whose name seems to have slipped from my mind when it was just floating around a few moments ago. Oh well.

"just another day" seems to imply that I've been spending my days in paradise. Haha. Not really. Just that I seldom feel as content abt everything in life as I feel now. Well. Not exactly everything. I can really afford to lose some weight [which has remained very stagnant and to my *horror* is creeping up by hundreds of grams which is, let me tell you, very scary.] And so I have resolved to eat absolutely nothing for dinner for the next week of weekdays [I give myself a break on weekends!] except for bread.

Maybe its water retention? Haha.

Weekdays seem like a cassette tape playing over and over again, whereas weekends seem to fly past too soon for my liking. Work and tuition is all I do on weekdays, with the occasional meet-ups with friends and the Boyfriend; and saturdays being date-day come and go all too quickly. Everyday its the same routine - so much so tt I'm beginning to get used to eating lunch at the coffee-shop all by myself and not feeling weird/loser-like. Take a short shut-eye on the bus, walk up the horrible slope at Dempsey Road in the hot hot hot weather, and there I am, reporting for work. When the work-day ends, tuition starts.

*argh* but at least frm nxt week, tuition gets shifted to the morning. Not so bad.

The Boyfriend has the luxury of driving the company van home after work [even on weekends!]; and so I am leading a pampered life of being picked up from home, staying out till as late as we want, and then being sent home right to the lift's doorstep. :) Having one's own transport is really liberating as late-night movies [both weekdays + weekends] become a common activity; and the release from having to take public transport is....wonderful.

Too bad abt the fact tt when the Boyfriend's vacation job ends, there goes my love affair with the van. oh well.

Been shopping since the GSS is on; but so far have only bought one le coq sportif top [the one I call the cuckatoo brand. haha] and nothing else! Nothing has seem to attracted me enough for me to buy it - though there was the pink/white bag at far east...hrm. Latest object of desire is the white Adidas jacket, but it is not on sale! -wails- why? They give a 30% discount to most items but not to my jacket! *grumbles*

Am still considering whether to get it or not. It looks so so good on me though.

I am feeling sleepy and its 12.21 pm. Becoming such a pig on sundays. Hee.
