Go Ape on 23rd =)

Time: 2.05pm

Date: 20 June 2011
Location: Hargrave.

wow. finally Jun's-omg-totally-awesome-once-in-a-lifetime-turning-23rd-birthday-celebration-yay! week has passed and it PASSED by SO.FAST.

Well, I may have made it looked way more than what happened by the intentionally bimbotic name but really, I had a really nice day =)

I kinda unofficially took the week off, mentally. Was really fun floating in Lala land for a while...

Well, the day started unlike any other.

Waking up with the delicious fragrance of scrambled eggs was delightful! He went through the trouble of preparing continental breakfast which plated hash-brown (elegantly split into two while he was flipping it..), scrambled eggs, garlic bread and a slice of crispy ham. He even made mushroom soup to wash it all down with..

So after some washing up, making-up, waking-up and much dilly-dally, we finally left home to head to the city... for my LONG AWAITED massage~ yea! I bought a voucher online and R sweetly booked the massage session for me couple of days ago =) So I made him promise me nothing but zas for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and Sweet Sixteen marathon for the whole day under the sheets, among other things. Sweet Sixteen was chosen just because he really can't stand it. lol. Needless to say that didn't happen... we ended up having a movie night watching 3 Idiots with the bunch instead. It was a pretty nice way to end to day =)

Sticking to the story, we were supposed to head to this pizza place on Flinders Ln (because I went on and on about having pizzas)... We did go to Flinders Ln alright.. but to Yu-U! that restaurant that I've been CRAVING for since the research I did for his birthday a month ago! wanted to go there during Sarah's belated bday celeb but didn't work out. The place was fully booked. when we were there, we realized they don't need that many people to fill up the place. Not really business minded btw... they could have maximize the usage of space to have host more customers.

Anyways, all is well! The food was so so but it's the whole initial excitement of having your 'dreams' come true was amazing... lol. I'm actually pretty easily satisfied. The restaurant was empty when we went, at 12. lol. never so punctual. Ordered Salmon bento and pork bento.. the price was reasonable. $18/set considering the generous portion.. Lit ordered Jap Plum alcohol drink and hot sake. lol. The sake was a little too strong but the plum was alright.

Then we walked around the city all the while having Lit told me that he was craving for Koko Black. Was a tad uncharacteristic of him but didn't put too much thought into it... It was drizzling but not too cold. we trammed and walked a little to Vimala near Lygon by 2pm for my massage~ the massage was pretty awesome... but really, I still miss Arokaya in Sunway. lol. All the while the poor guy has to scout for public bench adjacent to a restaurant that has outdoor heater to get some heat in the cold winter's day... OMG... if only I know this would happen earlier, i wouldn't plan the massage that day.

After that, he seemed to be in a rush checking his phone and watch every other minute when we trammed to Bourke st... i KNOW something's up but lucky him, the thought of Koko Black's Ice Mocha was occupying must of my RAM at that moment...

When we were in Koko Black, he asked for a table for 3 while I gestured for 2.. which was weird but I was too busy and distracted by chocolates and drinking Ice Mocha in my head. after a while Cheer Ray showed up. Haven't seen her in AGES... being us, we always have something to catch up and chattering over tea (of ice mocha and ice-cream) was simply not enough.

It was getting dark around 5... so we headed back. Conveniently, kar kien 'TEXTED' R while we were in Myers for a toilet hunt, to ask if we want to join him, Jer and Ean for dinner in Glen. Suspiciously convenient... I didn't wanna spoil his plan and played along. What a good company I was =)

Ofcourse we went to La Porchetta!! Finally having zas~ lol. it's like having all my favorite food in ONE day! everyone was there... to name a few Jerr, Kar Kien, Joe, Saab, Lam, Marie, Nic Ng, Flo, Pei Chern, Chu Ian, Caryn, Ben, Jerm, Amanda and even Gracia, lol. Then some of us came back home for some green tea, Red Rock Deli (thanksss) and 3 Idiots... which R's been going on and on since Feb. Aamir Khan was pwetty cute I would say =)

Being 23rd now.. I would say is not where I would imagine myself to be 5 years back. But I'm taking it one day at a time. Felt deflated and pointless some times to doing what I am supposed to be doing. I love who I'm with, the company I keep but not really the situation. I would admit that circumstances could have been better but really... it's a struggle to psycho myself... which I'm not doing very well in. In this extremely conflicted state... often felt the urge to press the restart button sometimes...

Guess all I'm saying is... thanks for the motivation and your ways of pulling me back from the insane side of the mental scale... All my weird antics... eg. I can't stand re-wearing socks coz it's icky but don't like showers... because I don't like the cold feeling after showering, even with the heater on... and you have to admit, showering is quite a hassle and it's not like I don't like to be clean. lol. and yea... thanks for the wonderful birthday =))

Just find that this is a good read even though it's heavily opinionated.
