it's thursday??

ever had a week that zipped past so quick that before you can suffer sufficiently from the monday blues, feel the midweek hump on wednesday, it is already friday the next day? TGIF? You bet.

monday had dinner with previous ship's officers. had chilli crabs, lala, beer and chicken wings. and orh luak (oyster omelette). it was a great 3 hour meal with me kept updated of the latest in the ship and bits from the fleet.

tuesday had dinner with primary schoolmates at marche heeren. had rosti, bratwurst, mushroom soup, pizza, mashed potato, soft-shell crab, calamari, stir-fried vegetables, waffles, crepe, black pepper chicken, pork chops, root beer and....i think that's all. we shared the food so got to pinch from everyone's plate. catching up was fun. two of the girls just removed their retainers, one of this two just came back from japan cause her boyfriend's japanese and she's likely to go there eventually. another was back from a business trip to nepal and tibet. another just finished her exams for her part time course and she thinks that she's flunked the two papers. so she bought 6 bags at one go from the Tangs sale. and we shared the grief of this friend with a depressive ex and how he came to claim back items from her after they broke off. so my friend now has a brand new desktop because she got rid of everything that used to belong to her ex. I think it's great to have primary school mates who've known you in your most embarrassing years but will still stand by and give moral support.

That's when wednesday and thursday came and went with a recent friend i made (i'd like to think he's more than a colleague) getting married today with another expected on saturday.

And today I forgot to bring my phone to work. which was terrible cause i made arrangements with a friend to be picked up at boonlay station. however i couldn't call him to tell him i was almost there. so i borrowed the phone of the driver of the cab i was in and called home to ask mum to call my friend. yes, i should've memorise my friend's number. i do know. so that makes two phone numbers i memorise by heart besides my own. V's and my friend.

it's friday tomorrow. seriously i can't wait for the week to be over.
