Wonderfully screwed up day!

Oh u have to check dis out! I was so geared to meet Nikky today after my course @ IPAM (2nd day of BRAINPOWER course).  Before mtg her @ 7pm, I had made arrangement with my former lecturer (now friend) Shila to drop by her place to spend some time catching up.  She's staying @ Tiong Bahru (which is just 5 MRT stations away from Buona Vista where IPAM is).  My course ends @ 5pm, so I was supposed 2b @ Shila's place by 5.30pm latest, and leave by 6.40pm 2 meet Nikky @ Raffles Place (3 stations away from Tiong Bahru).

1st screw up - @ 3pm .. I realised my hp battery is low (no backlight)! Damn! I'm not going home till 10-ish. How to survive w/o hp to arrange meet up venues with 2 ppl I'm supposed to meet! I squint my eyes & sms Nikky to tell her my plight & that I'd call her from Shila's place to make arrangement.

Then, usually course ends @ 5pm..but bcoz this perfectionist of a planner had drawn her perfect plan, course ended @ 5.20pm!!! So I dashed off w/o saying bye to anyone.

I reached Tiong Bahru @ 5.45pm.  Shila had given directions to her place, which was a 7 min walk from the MRT.  So I knew I cld be @ her place by 6pm.  But little did I know her direction was so "fabulous" it brought me to another end of the station.  As a result, I had to stop & ask so many stupid young executives before an old chinese ahpek patiently came to my rescue.  He was honest enough to advise me to hop on a bus (although for 1 stop) instead of walking so I do not go off-track again.  So I was like terribly late .. I reached Shila's place almost 6.30pm.

I sms-ed Nikky that I'll be late..& she replied back to ask "my friend would like to join us, is it ok with u?"  NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! So since I wasn't abt to have a 3rd party intruding into my personal moment with Nikky..we decided to meet up another day for her Muddy Mud Pie. :( *sob sob*  The whole reason for the meet up was solely to show her the Rabba Ishq Na Hove episode where we made a split-second appearance which I had videocam-ed using my PC-Camera since she missed it on TV).

The gd thing abt not mtg Nikky was that I got to stay longer @ Shila's place. Had a ball of a time entertaining her 2 lil monsters, Bobby & Garry.  Bobby (4 yrs) is so intelligent he adopts things very fast! Garry (2 yrs) is such a copycat he does/say everything that his bro does/say!  They're a bunch of darlings nevertheless!  It was madhouse with 3 mad ppl..but I had a wonderful time! Got to taste Shila's special samosas (she's now into samosa supplying business, so anyone wanna order for Diwali or Eid, lemme noe). 

Left her place abt 8-ish. While she promised to show the direction of the MRT station, it was her hubby who had to direct me!

CONCLUSION: Shila has horrible sense of direction and she gives horrifying direction! Oh well, she makes great samosas though!
