Haircut
Oh, forgot one more thing. Went to a different hair stylist on saturday. Cut and coloured my hair. The salon specialised in japanese styles. Anyway, I quite like the cut, but the color highlights turn out too blond. I had to ask the stylist to darken the color. Hope I dont look too weird.

Yes, its been ages since my last update. There's been so much going on , meeting up with friends, going for classes, work, etc. Pardon me for my absence. Dont really know how to start, but here it goes...
Was on leave today to take my mum to see the doc. Turn out she need to go through a cataract operation on her right eye as its getting worse. That I guess is more common these days amongst the elderly. What is sobering however is that I now have to 'grow up' faster and take care of my parents, who are getting older, and weaker. That responsibility at times is daunting as I find myself hardly able to take care of myself at times. However, I suppose this is life and I would have to live with it, and be strong.
Recently, also visited a friend who is suffering from cancer and resting. He is a dear friend of mine, tk. I saw how weak he grew , however I am determined not to be too sad in front of him, else he would feel worse. (Thats what i feel) . Hence I am often very 'normal' in front of him, cracking jokes with his SO, and just 'entertaining' him. There is not much I could do, except to let him be , help him when he needed help, and be with him. Well, sad thoughts aside, I am glad my friend is not overtly depressed and spends his time listening to music or reading books. I think at the end of the day, life is only such. We can only appreciate whatever we have, our blessings , our tribulations and hope that through it all, we grow stronger and not crumble.
That aside, I had a really fun time yesterday. Watched a funny show, Scoop with Jo, and it was hilarious. Woody Allen wrote the script and the lines are really witty. He is as funny as ever, though he has aged a fair bit. I had a good laugh listening to the dialogue. Afterwhich , I met up with a friend for dinner. He told me about Arnold's Chicken located at City Plaza, saying its really v good, better than KFC. At first I didnt believe him, but when I tried it yesterday. Wow, it really is true. The taste is fantastic. And its Full House! We waited for like an hour before our turn came. The wait was worth it though. There's Lots of wholesale/retail fashion shops there. Friends who love shopping, I think you would be thrilled to check that out. Some of the fashion is bad, but think there are some gems there. The complex is pretty old, and reminded me of MBK in Thailand. Friend told me he knows of some retailers who get their goods from city plaza. The haze was not that bad, so we went to East Coast to hang out. Quite breezy and good to be near to nature. Good thing I am on leave today!
