After a long week of work, which seemed almost never ending, I had a pleasant day out with J.
We were never really brunch people, mainly because I don't do breakfast and he's just not a morning person overall. But we decided to give something new a try and started our day early in a little corner called Valentine Cafe. The cafe had a small selective menu, and I can't comment on the taste (I'm no critic) but we quite enjoyed our meal. The ambiance was perfect, the amount of office workers bustling about for their coffee, a little traffic passing now and then, as well as the slight hustle of leaves made my morning. We chit chat, catch up and just let ourselves drift with our surroundings.
With our hectic schedule lately it felt nice just to sit back and enjoy each others company.
To follow, we spent the day in Westfield. And although we had a slow start it turned out to be one of the best shopping sprees I've had in a while. I was shopping for an outfit particularly for my spa date with J in the coming week (but more details to come when it happens).
I didn't purchase exactly what I had on mind but was fairly happy. Especially for the prices I paid. I don't mean to sound uptight (lol) I just think when you begin to work so much and save for future plans you become more wise with what you spend your money on.
Here are some of the pieces I gathered on my day out spree.
I'm trying something different compared to what I usually wear. But all is well, ends well.
I can't wait for my day out.
Throughout that day, and the following, I felt like the luckiest girl. I felt treasured, and I guess there's a difference between that and being spoilt or simply just tolerated. J had walked around with me the whole day and helped me pick out pieces I was actually happy with. I didn't let him get me anything that day besides food (lol I sound like a wee lil fattie). It felt good after a whole week to be out and to spoil myself. But mostly it was one of those epiphany moments you get once in a while, when you realize how truly lucky you are to have someone like whomever is walking by your side.
So I guess, you reap only what you sow. I worked plenty of hours before giving in to a little splurge. And only when you are true to someone then they will reciprocate your love.
Love,
