We LOVE Gals' Nights!!

You know what? The dinner with the gals last Sat was fantastic. I was quite amazed at how comfy we were together though that was the first time we gals were out for the first time. Yup, we may have seen each other numerous times in past gatherings and outings, but we don't usually get a chance to sit down and chat together like the way we did that night.

And so we went to Rochester Park eventually. It was pouring like mad so Ms Lee decided to change the venue to Bugis instead. The usual fickle Ms Lee then decided that since the rain had turned to only drizzle, perhaps we could stick to our original plan and head back to Rochester instead cos' she has longed to go there. Duh...I was pretty pissed for her indecisiveness but nevertheless, I'm glad we have made the right move cos' Rochester was really a conducive area, being hidden in the woods and greens next to Buona Vista MRT.

Food was not too bad. We had buffalo wings, salad, chicken, baby back ribs...and CHAMPAGNE!! Yeh...we wine and we dine. But that's not the gist of the night. I think what made the night special was becos' it gave us opportunity to know each other better. We talked about everything under the moon (haha..not sun..cos' at night mah), about men, about family, career...etc. It was then that we realised that one of the gals' love for her partner was not really reciprocated. Before this dinner, I have always perceived her to be another of those "malaysian gals"...but there, I realised that I was wrong. Though she was only 23, she thinks like a 30 year old lady. Becos' her love for the guy is that deep, she has made several sacrificies for him. I know I could have heard only her side of story, but it was pathetic enough for me to sympathise her. To love or to be loved? I think the latter is better, cos' to love someone can sometimes be so painful. It's good to be in a position of being loved and cared for. Don't you think so?

There there was J. She was also pouring out her unhappiness with her in laws, esp. the sis in law, who is a pain in the ass. We have kinda encouraged her to have a good talk with the hubby to iron out the issues, but she said she didn't want him to be sandwiched between them or cause unneccessary tension on both side. Shrug.

So well, yeh..after that night, I went home feeling so blessed to have a hubby who loves me deeply and a set of wonderful in-laws who pampers me like their own daughter =) I is a happy gal..and I is going to cherish that.

3 Cheers for the gals! Next outing - SPA!!!
