Headed over to Song Fa for dinner to satisfy our BKT craving.
We'd our bowl of soup refilled four times and almost died from indigestion.


Food for thought: 
Putting people down doesn't place you above them. In fact, it goes to show how ugly you're - in and out.

Spathe / Rokeby / Wimbly Lu

Saturday brunch with one of my favorite Yoguru girls, Mandy, 'bout two weeks ago. Yay to spending time outside of work. Despite our age gap, i'm glad that we'd so much in common. Can't wait for our next brunch date one month later.

Hopped over to Wimbly Lu for desserts thereafter.
We were in the queue for almost an hour for their rootbeer cake and waffles w ice-cream. The place was so crowded (even when we were leaving) and no reservations are allowed on friday/saturday night. Would love to go back on a quiet weekday afternoon with better lightings though.

'Cause everyone has their own war to fight

These few weeks, i've been going through some rough internal struggle of emotions. Have been trying so hard to keep myself sane, to keep the positive vibes going, to have a smile plastered on my face but all to no avail. It's like fighting a losing mental battle against myself. I can no longer conceal the sadness, the disappointment, the emptiness and the fear i'd within me. On some nights, i cry myself to sleep and on some days, i woke wishing i could sleep forever.

I've tried accepting that people comes and goes in life. But it's just me, part of my character to carry on trying, to have that desire to keep everybody in my life. As much as i tell myself that i probably shouldn't care anymore, i just ... cant. It feels like i'm so distant from everybody, like i'm all alone fighting the crazy world out there. It's scary knowing that you mean so little to people who mean so much to you. It's upsetting to find out how much i've been lied to and how much i've been made used of. The truth hurts so much, i'd rather live life a lie. It's the little things that makes me happy yet it's the little things that breaks me apart.

The inferior monster in me has been feeding itself pretty well, slowly but surely engulfing me. I really question my existence in this world sometimes. So much bottled feelings that i can no longer find someone to pour out to. I'm such a mess but i hope, someday i'll be at somewhere happier and i wish for that someday to arrive quickly for i am waiting, to be happy.

Just in case anyone is wondering, nope, this is not your usual pot of plant. It's the famous vanilla dirt cake (nomz) and mad love the molten lava cake that we ordered as well.
