小女人的日记

Finally got to go out with Gary last Saturday. The plan had already been kept in view for a few months and I was over the moon when he told me on Friday night that we can finally have dinner together. ^^

He took me to the Sushi Tei at Paragon for dinner. The restaurant was full when we went there so he left his contact number for the staff to call us when there are available seats while we go shopping.

Went Sony to look around. We were looking at camcorders when the salesman came. The blur salesman mistook us to be a married couple and recommended a camcorder with night vision so that we can bring our kids to the night safari. He even recommended an LCD TV for our bedroom. -_- Gary and I didn't correct him though. =X

Then we went to Marks & Spencer. Nothing much to buy there so we left after rounding the store once.

Went to Toys'R'us after that because he wanted to look at the helicopters. While we were looking at the helicopters, the staff at Sushi Tei called to say that the seats are ready. The poor boy was famished because he missed his lunch and so we hurried to the restaurant.

He wanted to order sea urchin sashimi but changed his mind when he realised that I have not tried the "delicacy" before and do not dare to eat it. I wanted him to order anything that he wanted to eat but he said that he will not enjoy eating the sea urchin sashimi if I do not like it. Awww, so sweet! He really wanted me to try the sea urchin so he changed the order to two sea urchin sushi so that we each can have one. Other than the sea urchin sushi, we ordered a plate of gyozas, a BBQ squid, an ebi don for him and a bowl of curry udon for me. It took me a while to muster up enough courage to try the sea urchin sushi. He looked at me as I tasted the sea urchin and knew immediately from my expression that I don't really like it. He asked if I was OK and I said I am not worried because if anything happened to me, he could save me. =P The bowl of curry udon was enormous and I couldn't finish everything. In the end, I had to waste food. =X

Wanted to catch a movie at Cineleisure after dinner but all the shows except those showing after midnight were sold out. He was uber sweet to offer to watch a movie with me at Causeway Point if I really wanted to watch a movie so that it would be easier for me to go home after the show. I know he had to work the next day and I didn't want to keep him up with me, so I said there were none I really wanna watch.

Instead of watching a movie, we went back to Paragon to have coffee at Coffee Bean. We had a good time talking and joking with each other there. He was really humourous and I really enjoyed talking to him. The conversation would have gone on forever if we didn't have to go home. =) That was the first time he concentrated on talking to me and not reading his medical journals at the same time. =/

After the coffee break, I asked if he needed to go home and rest since he had to work the next day. I was surprised that he wanted to continue walking with me and said he was OK because he had plenty of time to rest the next day. So, we took a walk together until we reach Tangs, where we realised that there wasn't much to see at that time. He asked if I want to go home early and I said OK. As I was approaching the escalator, he suddenly remembered that Borders only closes at midnight on weekends and suggested that we go and walk around there. I agreed and we went to Borders. He is a big fan of Jamie Oliver and we spent some time browsing his cookbooks. It is hard to find a guy who enjoys cooking as much as Gary does nowadays. He is one rare gem. =) Then we went to the Children's section and reminisced our childhood memories. =)

It was getting late and he said we need to go. He took the train with me to Toa Payoh where we said our goodbyes and I continued my journey home from there. I did not expect him to take the train with me because it is more convenient for him to go home by a direct bus service from Orchard Road than to take the train and transfer bus. I was touched. =) He said he will see me again but I wonder when will that be. =/

Just had my last paper, Auditing this morning and that marks the end of my final year examinations. However, that was not the end of the day for me.

Went straight to Raffles Place after the paper. Wanted to eat at Five by Aromas where Jason works at but it was super crowded and I had no time to wait for a seat there, so I just said Hi to Jason and left. Went to the hawker centre at Market Street to eat nasi lemak instead. It was very difficult to find a place to sit at the hawker centre too. Almost all the empty seats were taken up by packets of tissue paper. Though I have heard of people "chopping" seats using packets of tissue paper but it was the first time I saw people doing that.

Tutorial started at 2PM. Mingled with the other personal financial consultants and found out that I am the only one in the group to report on 1 July while the rest of them only need to report on 8 July. There is only one other person in the tutorial group who will report to work on the same day as I do but she is a mobile banking executive. SiGh~! Why like that?!

Went to Suntec City after the tutorial to meet Daphne for dinner. We had our dinner at KFC, where we met Andy. He joined us for dinner and left shortly after he had finished his food. After dinner, Daphne and I went to Carrefour to buy a hair dryer.

On the way to City Hall MRT station, the blister on my foot burst and I was bleeding. I endured the pain and continued to walk till I reach the MRT station. Took a train to Marina Bay so that I can get a seat on the train and managed to limp home in my killer heels.

It was raining when I reached Admiralty. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to bring an umbrella with me when I came out this morning, so I called home and asked mommy to come and pick me up from the MRT station. However, she said that it was not raining and asked me to come home myself, which I did. Needless to say, I was drenched. =/

Will be meeting the dudes and dudess from UOB tomorrow. Haven't seen all of them in a while. Looking forward to seeing them again. =)

It had been a tiring day for me today. I need to rest. Goodnight!
