De one with Bettering

Rainny day

Today was a better day after all the "storms" and depression. I went jogging in the morning around 9+am. Well..partly because I wept the whole night for someone who hurt me alot.

Well..as a result of me unable to stand my blown-up long and thick hair. I went down to the neighbourhood salon after a quick shower. I've been to this salon for many years. It became a part of my life. From baby time, my granny would bring me to this Chinese barber. The shop owner happened to be the father of the current hairdressers in the salon I frequent. When I reached the age of 5-6 years old, the barber closed. Left with no choice, I had to visit the salon which was just next door. My aunt and granny always recognised the shop with a nick-name "Do-Re-Mi"..Haha.. honestly, I'm really puzzled why is it called this name. Old people and their names for everything! But it's fun and an easy-to-remember funatics. They charged me $7 when I was young. As I've grown older or during subsequent New Year, they increase the price. However, till date, they only charged me $10. Which is much cheap compared to those Salons there are. Yipee ai!

Another interesting thing was that I've always mixed up the two sisters. There was one who was much slim who looked younger. I always mistake her for being the younger sister. Turned out, she is supposed to be the elder sister. Hehe.. Everyone says the elder sister is more skilled in hairdressing. I couldn't agree more. Under her skills, I've always get nice personalised hairstyle. Well.. the younger sister's skill isn't very bad. The good thing about her is she always produce the hairstyle which you instruct her. End produce you'll get whatever you want. So.. hehe I feel more comfortable being fussy with my instructions.I

Anyway, I've got a nice Jap hairstyle today. The younger sister was the one cutting my hair. Sweet said my hairstlye was NICE.. feel so good today.

Macroeconomics lecture was fun as usual. Dr. Saminathan cracked a job about how we should asked for pay which is able to cover our capability and inflation impact. Haha! What a joke while teaching us about inflation, Philips curve, Unemployment and appropriate policies. I managed to understand whatever he was teaching. It's really gratifying as a student.

It was raining when I waited to meet Sweet around the house area. The rain didn't matter. It was really romantic. Sweet and I shared the umbrella Sweet brought, walking together, cuddled close in the rain. We went to this neighbourhood hairdresser which Sweet always been to and what Sweet considered "high class". Omg. Well, Sweet's hairdresser Iris (whom I guessed is a Malaysian) gave Sweet a slightly new hairstyle. Well, although I couldn't derived any lesson but..both of us had haircut today. It's just so loving.

We had dinner at the nearby coffee shop. Sweet asked me whether I had anything I found suitable to my taste. Actually, I was more concerned because Sweet missed the chance of eating the Bah Choy Mee some time back, so I insisted on eating anything even though the food didn't appeal to me. Well.. it's a nice dinner. I wanted to try Qoo (since I was affected by my marketing assignment on Qoo), omg. However, I bought two cans of drinks (Qoo and less sweetening Green tea) since Sweet didn't like sweet beverage. Despite Sweet wanted to share a drink with me initially. I bought a few curry puffs back for my family for breakfast tomorrow morning. And also, a mushroom chicken puff for Sweet. Muacks.

It's a Bettering day today. Spare the moment Sweet and I nearly fell over the verge of breaking up when I was waiting an hour for my haircut. Yet, I still feel unsettled as though fearing to tip the scale again. I really hope Sweet will change the undesirable attitude and whatever stigma. I don't want to be a sad soul again. Well, let's hope for the better. Every dark cloud has a silver lining!
