thank god i was at friday's

it was a very tiring day yesterday.
my meeting started at 8 and not everyone was on time. one even had the cheek to come after 9! damn it! and the group leader did not say anything. i hate this kind of attitude. because of some slow workers and their incompetence, the whole group gets dragged and i only got to go back 3.30p.m. bad leadership too.

only managed to rest for about one hour before i had to start my journey to kl.
my gathering number 3 with ex-collegemates!
venue: tgif, subang parade.
time: 7-8p.m.
no of people: from 6 became only 4

i drove aunt to her friend's place in usj first. i was late because of the road congestion and rain along the highway. saw 2 accidents at highway. scary.

the heavily pregnant lian arrived first at 7.15p.m. i arrived at 7.30p.m.
and finally- the two VIPS (one of them initiated the gathering) arrived at....drumroll.......8.30p.m.! they are sangeeta and zaamah. finally the group is complete.

the menu at tgif was limited that night due to it being christmas eve, so we did not have to crack our head much to order. by the time sangee and zaamah arrived, food was on the table and everyone dug in.

this is our group photo.....with all the food....well, one plate was missing, too busy talking and i had forgotten to snap the photo. 2 main courses, 2 desserts and 4 appetisers.

the conversation topics ranged from giving birth (i can only be a listener here) to match-making to maids' problems to updating each other's statuses. it was great fun and the mouth never stopped moving. we had not met for 10 years but it seemed only like 10 weeks the last we saw each other. there was no gap at all and we clicked straight away. wonderful!

my poor aunt waited at her friend's place till 11.30p.m. tgif closed already then and the whole subang parade mall too. so i suggested that we meet for breakfast next time. then there is lunch and dinner to standby if we cannot end our session.

well, it is the best time i have ever spent at friday's and it made up for the so-so quality of food you get.

off to genting tonight to listen to the music of abba. i am not going to get any sleep tonight. have to be at klia at 6a.m. to pick up atticus and uncle. urggh....but i have cherries to look forward to. yummy.
