Today I had a great day...I had not expected it to turn out this way. I had skipped my Sunday morning Gongyo and felt bad about it. I was not expecting anything out of a normal Sunday although I had made plans with Winnie and Poon. Woke up just in time to get ready to go to Winnie's place to join her for Bah Kut Teh feast at her soon to be opened new stall at People's Park centre.
Met some wonderful people , especially a lady named Juliet who used to be food columnist and had a wonderful sharing bout food in Malaysia and Singapore. I would say the bah kut teh was not as authentic as the one in Klang but if one is craving for it, it will do 👍. They had toned down on the herb and star anise after effect to accommodate to local Singaporean palate . Went for a movie with Poon which we had not done for the longest time. I had no expectations of "Cold War" so I really enjoyed the movie. It was raining heavily after the movie so we decided to go shop houses tour at joo chiat area. We even walked all the way from joo chiat road to tanjong katong road after the rain stopped, to try out this new cafe "Do main " (been there for a year ) . During the coffee session I told Poon bout Freddy. For the first time in my life after knowing him , I felt very close to him to share my inner secrets with him. I am not sure why or how but I felt connected to him. I had never shared any of my relationship with him since I knew from uni days, he had liked me and confessed and I had rejected him. There are times in our 20 years of friendship I miss him so much that I thought I might liked him more than friends but was afraid to attempt it coz I worry I might lose a wonderful friend. Today by sharing bout Freddy to him kinda calm me down. I am not sure why ...
After that we decided to walk all the way back to his condo coz he needed to clock 40k steps lol. .. we did a stop at wine connection and decided to open a bottle and ordered Chinese from next door. I has so much food today that I think I will blow up. My stomach is showing today .
Although it was a great evening , my mind is still thinking of Freddy. I requested to meet up and he replied that he is not feeling too great lately, and probably to meet another week. Simple message like that really made my day. I miss him a lot... I wish he was there with me too coz the place was playing our song earlier "thinking out loud"
