AT SOME POINT IN YOUR LIFE, YOU'LL GET TO CRADLE THIS COMFORT OF FEELING SAFE WITH A PERSON. YOU HUFF & PUFF, BUT YOU'RE SEWED UP THAT AN UNWAVERING HAND, MIND & HEART TAKES 'EM - THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW THAT THAT FRIEND IS A KEEPER.

Becca AKA THELATEBLOOMER11 and I finally went out on a date after 2 heaps years of being MIA. Things just fell off our plate and then one fine day we just managed to well, connect again.

meet madam becca AKA THELATEBLOOMER11

We decided to meet past lunch time as I was penciled-in for an appointment with chanel. They've invited me for this facial and hand massage session with regards to a launch of a certain product range, was it the Hydra-Serum or? I totally forgot 'bout it sorry!

Anyhoo, when we got there Becca went on straight for her facial first then I chose the hand massage, afterwards we'll swop. Thing is, I forgot that I have another facial scheduled the next day and as I don't wanna have facials in 2 consecutive days, I sincerely passed on it.

The facial & hand massage treat lasted for about an hour and a half, Becca said she almost dozed off inside the treatment room haha!

I was being an irritable rat while she's doing her hand massage thingie. Guess I really missed her that much. Aww, sorry if you weren't able to enjoy every minute of that hand massage!!

Since Becca's makeup was removed for the facial, I politely asked them to do a makeover for her and they obliged! Their makeover costs about $80 and above so ang taray ng lola nyo noh? Ahh, the perks of being a VIP member, thanks Chanel ♡

The staff were friendly although one of the lady staff mood seemed to obviously dampen when she found out I wasn't buying. (I prefer not to disclose who exactly the staff is but it doesn't also necessarily mean that it's the one shown in the pic above*)

Eh, chaboh you tell me how to buy? The lipstick shade that I wanted that time was out of stock and she wasn't sure if they will still be replenished since it's part of the Fall 2016 Collection. Ugh. I scoffed ad didn't let some attitude ruin the day for us.

Our tummies went krok-krok and we wanted to sit down for lunch. However, our feet brought us from ION to Orchard Gateway/313 Somerset, landed at the Noodle Place, an authentic HongKong Style restaurant.

It's my fave go-to HK resto whenever I'm around Somerset area & it was Becca's first time there.

pork chops yummss! This is one of my fave dish here...

We left some room for dessert and coffee so I brought her downstairs to a place where I know we could chill and of course, chat.

Dazzling Cafe ❣

We spent 2 (or was it 3?) hours of non-stop talking, obviously we had a lot of catching up to do. She convinced me to drink coffee again (I was on a hard core tea convert phase!). I'm not certain what kind of convincing powers this woman possess but she kills it. So I tried the Lavender Latter and boy, it was damn good.

so here's a toast (pun-intended) to our friendship,i guess? ♡

The Classic Honey Toast was goner in seconds, well that was after we waited for almost 1,800 seconds before the Häagen-Dazs has melted. Tough one but as always, Dazzling Cafe's Honey Toasts are uber delish.

i think that haagen-dazs ice cream took about 20-30 minutes before it melted hahas.

Each of us needs a little space. It leaves the room for good things to enter it and makes you ponder on the things you actually missed.

You know how some things don't really change even if you didn't see each other for years or even decades? I just wish we can both see each other often but then again, things are way better when it's all unplanned.

THERE WILL BE TIMES THAT OUR FRIENDSHIP WILL FEEL LIKE IT'S RUNNING DOWN THE HILL. that, we'll tolerate for FLEETING JOYS & THE BREVITY OF LIFE WILL COME AROUND TO BRING US BACK, AGAIN.
