They Dont Love Me Anymore...

Bubbles will be passing another phase of her life in a day’s time – her XXnd birthday. We had planned to celebrate it on Friday, together with welcoming Gangster back. Bubbles wanted to go party after dinner, so Velvet is our destination for the night.

Rose sent out the official invitation to the Beach Gals like one week before. But… No one, except good ol Da Jie bothered to reply (If you remembered, Rose had blogged about this before). On the day itself, Gangster called us to say that her flight had been delayed and she will probably not be able to join us for dinner. So we decided to make dinner earlier. Rose smsed all of the invitees the change in time, and only 1 confirmed could make it!

‘They don’t love me anymore!’ whined Bubbles. I laughed. Come one Bubbles, you know our friends.. Get used to it, like me, and you wont feel abandoned.

Last minute, Rose mummy called and said that she cant make it home to cook for the super hyper ST, and that Rose’s Bro’s God-parents will be coming by to pass some chocolates to Bro. So Rose had to go home to cook for her super hyper ST, and wait for Rose’s Bro’s God-parents to come and pass Rose the things for Rose’s Bro. Why, Rose had to go home to wait for her Bro’s god-parents to give something to her Bro, and not her Bro had to go home and wait for HIS god-parents to give him something, I don’t know. But anyway, Rose went home to cook for her super hyper ST.

Rose cooked dinner for Elfie, fed him by hand (Yes, Rose spoils her super hyper ST rotten), stole time to take a shower, before she heard Elfie barking non top at the door. Her Bro’s God-parents had arrived and was knocking on the door, which caused Elfie to bark non stop. Rose rushed out from her shower, opened the door for her Bro’s God-parents, and run to her room to get properly dressed before she went to sit with her Bro’s God-parents.

Rose’s Bro’s God-parents, were officially Rose’s Bro’s God-parents. But Rose and her sisters call them God-parents as well. Rose also owes her Bro’s God-parents a damn big favour, which Rose had not really managed to repay them back properly yet. Rose feels guilty sometimes, but Rose will always do her best to accommodate them whenever she can. Like today, although Rose had an appointment with her dear friends, she will still make the effort to go back home, bcos Rose knew that her Bro will never agree to go home just to wait for his God-parents. Anyway Rose had to be home to cook dinner for Elfie, so it made no difference right?

Rose’s God-father offered to send Rose to the dinner venue. So nice of him right? So Rose hurriedly changed and slabbed on some make up on her plain jane face before putting on her damn difficult to strap on heels.

Dinner was at this steamboat place below Director’s old house. Bubbles and Gangster both loved the place. Teacher and DaJie had already arrived and ordered when Rose arrived. 3 of us started first. Bubbles was stuck in the office, JB-ren went home to change, Ms HP, as usual, late (bcos of work la okie).

Bubbles and Ms Hp arrived next. We started catching up. I haven’t seen some of them, like Dajie, for ages. It was good, cos we learn about things happening to one another. Those who read my blog, like Teacher, knows everything, of cos. But for those that are not so eng eng cheng cheng like us, have no time to read about other people’s life, will have to depend on meet ups for updates. Everyone was doing fine. And as usual, I had a good time laughing over the silly things we start to say. Like someone suggested exercising. Teacher said that, yes she does exercise now… By climbing the flight of stairs leading from the car park to her lecture halls. I laughed and asked her how often she gets to climb those stairs, she very proudly announced: at least once a day. Hahahaha. But it’s a start, at least. Very soon she can go on to running up the stairs instead of walking, then accelerate to the rabbit hops. Its exercise what, right? Hahahaha.

After dinner, Bubbles, JB-ren ad Rose proceeded to Velvet. The rest could not make it due to early appointments the next day, or project commitments. As we drove, Gangster called Bubbles, asking us how our plans were. Bubbles succeeded in using her charms to charm Gangster to come join us at Velvet after her whole day of waiting and flying schedule. As we were approaching the car park, we saw a looooooooooong queue.

‘Is that Velvet’s Q’ Bubbles asked. No idea man. We asked the er… traffic controller (?). He said ‘Yes, that’s the queue for Velvet’.

Gosh, don’t say Bubbles, Rose also never had to queue so long to get into a pub before. And its not pu tong de long, its DAMN long. NVM, we got mood today, just queue. Anyway got to wait for Gangster to come.

When Gangster arrived, all of us laughed. Her hair… cut like punk lidat… She cursed and swear at the stylist in Chengdu, who did the punk hair style on her. JB-ren tried to take a photo of Gangster’s hairstyle, but it turned out too dark.

When we finally got into Velvet, it was so damn crowded. Plus the crowd was not what Rose expected. We found a spot on the dance floor, but not dancing (pathetic right). But soon got pushed to the middle of the counter, near the bar. Rose did not like the place. Rose finds that the people there very chor lor. Rose got pushed about. Rose got poked. Rose almost got knocked in the face. Rose is too old for partying in Singapore. Rose gave up and stood where she was.

We decided it was time to leave when all 4 of us stood still. Gangster wanted to have prata, so we drove to a prata place. Bubbles, JB-ren and Gangster ordered one each. Rose could not eat anymore bcos she ate too much during dinner. Bubbles, how to diet lidat? Sigh…. Monday, we will start Monday…
