What a day!

I was feeling a bit down when I woke up in the morning. Had so many things to do with so limited times . So I tried to maximise my time for today. And it’s Saturday, the day where I was supposed to lay back and relax. No such thing for today, though.

I got text messages from a friend of mine not to forget to pick up her facial toner at the mall. Yes mam , am going to pick it up now .... which got me a happy face later. As it was a short trip from home, I didn’t mind picking up her facial toner. Had time to enjoy my favorite fish cake at the food court there too.

Next trip was to pick up my document at the travel agent. They were supposed to help me with the visa application for my holiday trip, but my regular agent told me that I have to do it myself. Bummer! It meant I have to go to the office late on Monday to drop the document to embassy first. Fortunately, my boss approved my late arrival. Thank you, Boss!

So I took a taxi to the travel agent. To avoid any conversation with the taxi driver, I read a novel during the trip. No such luck, though. 5 minutes inside the taxi, the driver asked me what I was reading. Was I reading a romance novel? Nope, it’s a murder one. He then asked whether I planned to murder someone. Yep, him, definitely.

As I was playing deaf and didn’t reply, he got the hints ... not much. After 10 minutes, he asked again whether I was going for a date or not. I said yes, and got my ipod so that I would be left alone. Thank you very much, ipod!

My friend who is also my regular travel agent gave me back my document. She made some calls to her head office, talking to the staff in visa department. They didn’t understand clearly about my trip. For I don’t want to take any chances, I decide to go to the embassy myself on Monday. Wish me luck, please.

For it was over lunch time, we went to coffee beans for light lunch. I had chicken salad (yummy!) and iced blended green tea (weird taste!) whilst my friend had salmon scramble (fishy!) and iced cappuccino (delicious!).

As my friend had to go to the head office, I went to the book store to check new novels. Couldn’t find any of my favorite authors, I decided to go home. But then, a friend of mine called and asked me where I was. We agreed to meet in 1 hour at the mall. So I went to the department store to look around. Was so proud of myself that I didn’t buy any ... oops, I meant I didn’t buy anything expensive.

She came late, so I did window shopping. Met couple of friends too, and they agreed to have early dinner together. We had a good time and it was so nice to meet my friends whom I haven’t seen for months. Thank you all!
