Blank Doll likes mushrooms.

I love Xuan. She is the greatest girl in the whole world, the most generous and simply the nicest. She treated me to nydc! Haha, yes, Sean can be bought for any price provided its food. Ok, change that, provided solid friendship in existence in which case good food is enough.

Rushed off to meet her at Hwa Chong today where Sean stupidly stood in front of the gate waiting for her. Xuan who was doing GP, that sad creature, was late and Sean briefly tried to flood her mobile with phone calls so as to shut it down completely. Obviously, modern technology does not allow for such a thing to happen.

Xuan met Sean at the entrance, that silly sheepish smile again. Haha, ok lah, she's always like that. So she brought me into Hwa Chong where being the singular Rafflesian is most uncomfortable. For goodness sake, I don't even like the Rafflesian thingie.

Oh so we took a bus to Orchard, Sean having been TRICKED by Xuan into thinking that they were having lunch at Liquids but which turned out to be somewhere in Orchard. At this point, nigh six years of friendship kicked in and both agreed on nydc. They checked out the Mac shop first for the new Mac Pro which has Sean salivating again, scouted for OCBC atm because Xuan is extra and doesn't use DBS like the 4.2 million of us before proceeding to nydc where we got a nice corner seat.

Xuan ordered mushroom ham pasta, Sean ordered mushroom madness pizza. Xuan ordered berry cooler, Sean ordered earl grey vanilla cooler. Sean got syrup all over his mug and fingers, resulting in awkward licking motions while Xuan laughed and coolly sipped at her drink. They shared their food, Sean valiantly offering equal portions because he is not the pig that everyone think he is.

Needless to say, there was alot of catching up. Of sick GP teachers, of random stuff, of the difference between HC and RJ, of damn arseholes, of dreams, of things that friendships are made of. (Bear with me, will return to my old style of writing soon)

Then deciding to forget homework for once, Sean and Xuan went to kino to look at books. But first, a trip to Marks and Spencer's where Xuan bought cookies for some morbid girl with a thing for homosexuality. Why oh why do some girls indulge in such strange fancies?

Anyway, the books were cool. Xuan's learning the piano again, we're both thinking of learning japanese. We met Elsie, Fei Ya and the Shen at Isetan where Sean bought ice creams for both of them- green tea! Xuan dirtied herself as usual, like, wow, so rare. Haha. Anyway, on to the books. Art books that scared Sean because despite his burning desire to do fashion, Sean has never been what is termed an artsy person. He simply does not understand cutting-edge art, preferring the perfection found in old masters and the perfection of craft. Oh, Xuan continued her immersion in fashion. They stared at japanese cookbooks and salivate. Sean contemplated tearing open a bookcover, Xuan and Sean wonder why the japanese like to mangle French up.

After a bit of walking, both are tired. Both decide to take the bus back home. More talk of sick lit teachers, of silly HC students and their antics, of Chinese New Year, of work, of ambitions, of things that one come to appreciate and maybe even shed a tear over in twenty years time when youth is but a mere shade measured not by years but by the infinite steps that one has taken.

Yes, for all these I thank Xuan. Haha, let's do it again sometime! Who cares about homework when you have friends like this?

C'est tout.
