firstly my old man crush, Paul Newman, died on Saturday...
and although it's probably a little inappropriate and shallow for me to have mentioned this (since i haven't even seen more than two of his films, or bought any of his newman's own products, or actually know him) it saddened me a little and ye.
well, this post was mostly gonna be about sunday - which i got to spend with lovely dori : ) i've known her since primary school - a whopping 9 years - but oddly enough, it wasn't until we left primary school, that i felt we were good friends..
chance meetings on busrides towards similar destinations meant, and still mean, we constantly had time for good talks or mutually air out our frustrations ! anyways that day was a mix of her belated birthday (happy eighteeeen !), graduations and long time no sees...so of course it called for a cupcake shout! (how else do i ever celebrate?) these were from the 'we take the cake' cupcakery in bondi, conveniently located around the corner from our tutoring. mine was a red velvet, she had the milk chocolate. They were simple but tasty, and the thick lickable icing was the kind i'm so dying to recreate :(
i miss having long conversations with friends, and cupcakes....but one more month and i can revel in such good things for as long as i want !
freedom (not the end) is nigh. x |
