Today was such a nicely laid out day. First thing in the morning, the MPM math class had only slightly over 10 students, with a number of them taking a break for the holiday months (so that they do not need to pay) or others going on overseas trips. Finally our Sunday morning class has the correct teacher-student ratio. Sad to say last week when I did a swap for a colleague, she also had a smaller-than-usual crowd, thus I can’t dream that she can provide the supporting evidence that the crowded group with its staggering arrival is difficult to handle to efficiency. With only a manageable handful of “rascals” to handle, we were able to get most of them to finish work by 11am. All of us were happy. =) Happily I went home for my lunch. When was the last time I was so relaxed? I cannot quite remember.
On my way home, was hoping to get more job opportunities (now that I am officially jobless), I decided to SMS my dinner music boss cum agent to indicate my availability tonight and my being highly interested to work. And it worked! At slightly past noon I was informed that I could work tonight; another $30 to my “shoe fund” to buy that discounted Reebok Premium (Cross-)Trainer low at Royal Sporting House at $49.90.
Lunch was the delicious fish soup (which I always remember that it’s DEAR’s favourite but he’ll probably not get to taste my mum’s fish soup anytime soon), after that was lazing about the house, a little on the bed, a little on the sofa with the TV… … Then it’s time for fruits when dad woke from his nap. Then time for popiah, and I decided to go out a little early to shop around a bit.
I was very tempted to buy the $10 funfit bikini from OG after seeing it on Friday a few minutes before the store closes for the day (I went there after work on ship you see). Instead I missed a 190 bus and took a 700A which I decided to alight at the OG Orchard. There was a usual auntie-crowd as with any sale season. Looking around a bit at shoes, then decided to head straight to the swim wear. This store has much more stock laid out. Choosing 2 sets of bikini of S size which I think I might like I decided to take a look at their Triumph offers. Pretending to rummage a bit of the $29.90-39.90 tankini, the sales lady came to promote her only-two-pieces-left $19.90 one piece swimsuits. She urged me to try them. What’s the harm I thought, since I have to try the Fun fit bikini anyway. I had just bought an Arena one-piece at 50% off while trying to shop for shoes but RSH was closed for stock-take. In the end I bought a purple $19.90 Triumph one-piece.

Showed off to my mum of my good catch. She was impressed at the price! But I did not tell her of the Arena one bought just a few days back or she’ll bite my head off and yell at me for thinking I have too much cash to spare while missing a job. Haha.
