Mothers, and their worries

"Eh, you know your dad has a friend..."

"Uh huh..."

"Her daughter also works in advertising around [area], doing quite well..."

"Uh huh...?"

"30. Not seeing anyone..."



I knew where this is going!



"... (took me a while) and then...?"

"Maybe can intro her to you!"





I just ignored and continue staring at the TV, then into blank space.

Happy new year, people.

Rare sighting

It's been a while since we stroll to the other side for lunch.

Cute.

Not sure what's going on, but I guess it's some kind of a Stand-a-Chance-to-Win-All-These-If-You-Spent-More-Than-RM-[Insert Amount Here] promo that they did recently?

How often retailers would actually be bold enough not to have anything up at their display? Not too many.
Definitely an eye-catcher.



But what kinda name is that? Candle!?

She's into wax-dripping?
