Finally met up with Nam for some yummy sweet treats & of course caught up with each other's life, especially Internship. Settled for Sunday Folks because Nam wanted to try it & I've always wanted to try the waffles but it is always full whenever I decide to swing by.
Can you see the joy in my face? HAHAHA I just wanted to dig in and chrome the entire plate of ice cream & waffles!!
We both decided on regular waffles (two pieces of waffles & ice cream) cause we were famished! I settled for Dark Chocolate Ice Cream while Nam had Sea Salt Gula Melaka. The quality & taste of both the ice cream and waffles were so so good! Most def worth the price & the time queue-ing for it. Yum yum in our tum tums!! Definitely gonna bring Kai over really soon, he's gonna love the waffles!
HAHAHA didn't know Nam wanted to take a photo of me & my waffles so that explains the unprepared gestures and overly-excited face hahaha!
She wanted to take the plant, the waffles & me but couldn't fit all in the photo so I decided to give her a helping hand.
Twas' a good catching up session with Nam because it's so hard to find another so similar yet so different.
I don't feel intimidated when I freely speak my mind and she tells me that she disagrees with my point, in fact she opens another perspective one which has never crossed my mind.
We are similar when it comes talking about super random stuffs, funny bullcrap, working styles and working attitudes. We pretty much have the same finishing line in my mind but our working styles complement each other so well that the end product turns out fab.
It was good sharing my Intern experience with Nam and vice versa. I'm glad we took time out to catch up with each other and not let the opportunity pass us. I've witness so many a times where everyone, including myself, use this phrase "let's meet up soon" too freely and no one ever fulfills it. We just say it for the sake of saying it or for basic courtesy but how often do you mean it? I myself am guilty of this too & I wanna get rid of this.
Honestly am glad to take time out to meet friends which I've not met in awhile & find out what they've been doing thus far.
Lately, I've also been thinking through certain friendships I have with some friends. And I question myself "Where would we be 5 years down the road?" Would we be only meeting once a year? Would we still have that connection?
I really wouldn't want to maintain those friendships for the sake of it or due to the number of years we've been friends. It wouldn't be a genuine friendship then & it's unlike me to commit and invest in such relationships because I'd give my 300% in a friendship and my relationship and nothing less.
After awhile, you'll find it tiring to be always on the giving end & have no one reciprocating. And what's worst is that you can't seem to find that connection you once used to have with that friend. Conversations don't flow, you'll crack your head tryna find the conversation starters. You and your friend seem to have grown, grown up and grown apart.
I've the cutest grandma everrrrrr!!
Here's the start of a new challenge ahead. I'm not fond of change and neither am I great at adapting to very new change but I'm gonna try with an open heart & open mind.
