Therapy

I woke up at noon, sleep as much as I can to take advantage of a non-working day. I then ate the last poh-piah (spring-roll). Yeah, and that will marked the 4th day I ate the same stuff in a stretch. Hmm…it is still yummy surprisingly. I might start buying and eating this again by next week.
I planned to have laksa in the afternoon and western food from Mutiara Selera at night for tomorrow. I’m already craving for the food now as I am typing now.

I met up with the gals and we had dinner at Salsa. It was so nice to see everyone again. I don’t know. I always feel like I have not seen them for a long time every time I met them. After a while, our voice and laughter had filled up the whole restaurant and we normally get louder and louder as the topics get juicier. We usually discussed and talked about the tiniest issue to some serious personal problems we are facing with the husband, in-laws, family and from work. We listened, consoled and condemned.

I always feel that the time we get together is like a therapy to me. We can just say what we want to each other, anything. Things we feel uncomfortable saying to our co-worker, our siblings and etc we normally pour among us each time we met. It feels so relief after that; it is like putting behind your entire burden. Our brain is usually fully on rest mode because what we do is usually talk non-stop for the next few hours. The fact is we have known all of us since we were in high school and we have become sisters ever since and by the rate we are going it looks like we need each other for a really long time.

Min once said it is sad that people our age do not have clean fun like what we used to have in school anymore. Last night however just reminded me that that was what we have always been doing all this while, talking crap, gossiping, giggling and laughing solely at some words and things around us. One good example to prove it, we can talk without a topic or talk about the same topic for the whole night, you pick. Our men still have not found a way to cope with us when we are all together because it is too chaotic, but I think they should be used to it by now.

I am always grateful to have all of you as friends.
(June was not with us last night but she is of course included, Sue, Min, Dee, Cal and many more, we might not always see each other, but I’ve always think of you guys.)
