Its a package
Wednesday is an early day for me. I get to knock off officially at 5.30pm instead of 6.30pm. I follow a 44 hours week, you see.
My sister seems to be really fond of meeting me up for after work shopping. She texted me on my cellphone and we arranged to meet up to go to town. Because she was held up at work in a meeting and because we were going to meet my bf for dinner, we didn't really shop too long. Nevertheless, we managed to get a pair of shoes (hers, paid by herself though she was hinting a tad too blatantly for me to pick the tab.. haha!) and some folders... ;D
Then the sweetie came to pick us up to go for dinner. We made our way to Newton Circus to find it being barricaded for upgrading. Were going to detour to somewhere else when we note the temporary make-shift area housing the good ole food stalls!!
Yums! Dinner was stingray, sambal kang kong, popiah, fried hokkien mee and bbq chicken wings; washed down with sugar cane juice!!
Glorious food aside, this was the first time my lil sis is sitting down on the same table with my sweetie. And I'm really glad they get along just well.
I used to think that as long as I fancy the guy, it didn't really matter if my family likes him or not. Well, the relationship is between him and me right? These days, I don't subscribe to that any longer. I think it is just as important that he gets along well with my family members.
Afterall, its come in a package. Me with my family. I don't know if you'll think this silly, but I've learnt in a hard way that family matters and blood will always run thicker than water.
