Finally, I have the mood to start writing again. These few days have been trying for me because I don't know why I was suddenly flooded by a lot of negative emotions and thoughts. Perhaps it is the anxiety of going back to work plus a whole lot of things happening around me. But glad that I finally manage to sort it out already. So now I can look forward to a nice day out later with C. C has been busy and working hard on her thesis which is actually a philosophical mind-twisting exercise in the guise of being "architectural". I pray that God will give her the wisdom to be able to get through this difficult period of time and emerge as pure "gold" after going through the refiner's fire.

I think C has displayed over the years the determination and fortitude to withstand the rigours of the education system. Even though she is faced with immense pressure she could still get through it somehow. So I urge you dear to continue to persevere and press on towards your goal then when it is all done you will realise that God has developed a strong and resilient character in you. I am really sorry that many a times I don't know how to encourage and motivate you becaue I really cannot put myself 100 percent in your position. Hopefully you will forgive me. Jia you dear.

And now for a lighter side to the post.....

If we are able to get to katong mall today to do office chair shopping, perhaps I could bring dearie to this perankan restaurant. There is the claypot mussels which I am sure she would like. There is also this sambal fish which my mum tried to replicate but could not do so. hehe but if C does not want to have this we could always still go to nearby parkway parade to have a simple lunch and look at cute rabbits at our favourite pet store.


If not we could also go to this old school kopitiam which has cream puffs, cookies and Kaya Buns (not toasts) that are pretty impressive. Although the package comes with the angsty lady boss that serves coffee which tastes like plain water. Perhaps that day we caught her on the wrong day lah.








If not we could just settle for a nice dessert at katong mall itself which has this nice chocolate ice cream. I know C loves chocolate ice cream. But I never tried this before, even though I heard rave reviews of it.
