i had doubts about staying up late last night. but berl had a sleepover/movie marathon with her friends and that left andy alone in her boarding house. so ggg came to her rescue and we found ourselves at our usual spot in chowking.
with a vow, to never eat chinese food without using chopsticks, we patiently ate our chow fans and siomai. the other girls, rhea-san, dona-chan, anne-chan, jolly-chan and her bf joseph-kun enjoyed their side dish that i'll never ever dare to eat even if it will cost the life of the lugay inside matot's tummy, tofu. (bluh!)
the rain was still pouring when we finished our meals. andy took out her cards out of her bag and begun to read our fortunes. i still have a trauma from her previous reading of my cards, which were all rotten. i let dona-chan shuffle the cards first. and her fortune was spread in front of all of us. her cards were....traumatic! you would have thought that she has a magnet for all the bad cards. after andy read her fortune, she opened up about her marriage, then asked for another round of reading. but her cards turned out all the same! scary!
i was next in line. oh, this time my cards were good! there was happiness, love, hmmm...some bashers on the sideline, but generally good! that made my trauma about cards fade a little bit. hahaha! but of course, it was all just for fun. we had a good laugh (as always!) and that's all that matters. that moment of happiness and connection with friends.
we ordered nai cha's, coffee and pineapple juice to cool ourselves down and said bye bye to the crew of chowking at 4 am.
i finally said good night to the breaking dawn as i hit the sheets at 4:30.
