I did not realise that my first post in December would take place past midnight on a Saturday night. Theoretically speaking, it is a Sunday morning. But it really should not surprise me. I write best at night when all is quiet except my thoughts. Mum is fast asleep. Tomorrow she will be heading over to sis' home. Earlier this morning, mum and I had a very lovely brunch sharing a fluffy pancake with mangoes at Fluff Stack cafe at level two of Northpoint. Following that, we had lontong, claypot chicken rice and a bowl of chendol as well. We were both pretty stuffed. I met up with WT for coffee at Holland V at a new cafe joint called Arabica. Adelina spotted me and she was with Amos, Decky and their helper. I had a brief exchange with them before heading back to WT for our catch-up. The funny thing about catching up with WT is that I will usually have a lack of enthusiasm in wanting to catch-up but end up enjoying it after all. :P
WT is usually brutally honest with me about her thoughts and judgments. I know that her forthrightness is her strength and also the sincerity of her friendship. I truly value her friendship all these years and her companionship. I am aware she values me as a friend too. Our birthdays are just five days apart and we were borned in the same hospital. But our personalities are rather dissimilar even though we have been each other's confidants since we were teenagers.
I will be meeting her on 16 Dec, a day after I meet EL on 15 Dec to have a birthday celebration. On 17 Dec, I am expecting the Advancement Team to have another mini-celebration (or not... I'm not sure), and my actual birthday on the 18th... I have not decided what exactly to do this year... just like what 2020 has been, a year of uncertainty. On the 21st, I will have lunch at Irene's and on 22nd, I will have dinner with Imel. On 28th, I will meet BY & PJ for lunch. But prior to these, next week on the 11th, I have Lewis' birthday dinner to attend and a sleepover to host for Lu also on the 11th, followed by the gathering for the girls (GP, YL & G) on the 13th. I think I have to start saying NO to all other engagements NOW. My social calendar in December is looking too full for me to handle already... Not forgetting Sarah's visit on the 8th, next Tuesday. I certainly do not want to overextend myself in my favouritest month of the year. #themostwonderfultimeoftheyear
