That rare Monday

I don't usually like going out after work especially on Mondays cause it's only the start of the work week, your body is still warming up and you know you got to wake up early in the morning for work the next day.

But on that particular Monday, I was just itching to go out on a date with Affa. It feels like it's so loooong since we had a date, when we actually do go out and spend a lot of time together at home but I guess maybe because normally when we go out, it's about running errands, buying things, going for medical appointments and etc, and I just wanted to hangout with him. Just eat, sit, talk and walk aimlessly.

So on that Monday after work, he came over to my work place and we did just that.

We both were very tired actually after work. Affa was like "I had so much work today. So tired..." His eyes were a little red and he seemed really tired, you know he had a long day. I was also feeling tired and in my head I was like "Should have just gone home and crash on the bed. Gatal some more la nak keluar." Told him we can just quickly grab dinner and head home after this but since Affa has already come all the way to Orchard so we decided to just walk around for a while after dinner.

We slowly ate our pasta and banana pizza, chatted and it feels nice that we didn't have to rush cause we have no other plans after that. Made our way to Spotlight to just look at things. Had nothing in mind to buy, so we went section after section just looking and touching things. From cushions, to toilet rug, to blankets, to towels, to 1000 thread bed sheets, to porcelains, to cloths, to yarns and so on. Made one impulsive purchase from Spotlight: a portable hand sewing machine lol.

Made a pitstop at Uyi to buy popcorn squid before heading back. We were sluggish by the time we reach home. Plan was to clean up, pray and quickly rest but got totally distracted by our new portable hand sewing machine. Someone was just too impatient to test it and so we end up sleeping quite late until my sinus acted up.

But I guess once in a while, it's nice to have Mondays like this :)
