Under the Azure Sky

Yesterday our 小妹 returned to work after one whole week on leave preparing for exams; all the ladies (except Jas) went out for lunch at Clementi. Stopped over at an Indian 'threading' shop before that, and took our turns. G went first; opting for facing threading; with every pull of the thread, her face twitched in pain, and her tears threatened to overflow...Ha ha ha...then it was Irene's turn doing her eyebrows, then my turn. I wanted to try and see what it was like...so I opted for facial threading. Boy was it fun!! It didn't feel the least painful like what G described. But I hated it when the Indian lady plucked out my 'sideburns' as well...although my face felt very smooth after that, I felt like the sides were...naked...to say the least...boy I hoped my sideburns grow back real quick!!

Today in the office...poor WP first received news that her precious, a Chihuahua, had breathing difficulties. Then by the time she received the 2nd call, the Chihuahua was dead. Poor girl was in tears at the news...and no little anger, to say the least. I was a little shocked myself, when I overheard the conversation, and I felt genuine sadness in my heart. I guess I feel for WP as well, and I felt that it was quite sad that a little dog passed away, even though I've never met him.

Well, I guess that WP never had to deal with the death of a precious dog before this (or maybe I'm wrong), but whatever it is, sure hoped that she gets over her loss soon.

And tonight was the 2nd last lesson dancing under the tuition of Gani, our current dance coach. Tonight's lesson was especially fun, as I felt I can do better with soft, flowy, graceful motions; rather than hip hop styles, hard, forceful expressions. The last part of tonight's lesson involved free-styling, innovation in slow, precise, concise movements. I especially enjoyed that last. Hoped that after next week, which is the last lesson, we will have more opportunities to dance with him again.
