much as i try not to think about people based on gender (either they're interesting, or not) i can't help but get along better with girls. maybe it's a by product of having gone to a girls' school, or having only female cousins and a younger sister i adore. either way, i've been really blessed in that department with amazing girlfriends near and far. in whatsapp contact with a handful of lovely ladies i'd be quite sad without, and to have good girlfriends in the same city is a bonus.
the mister's been in NYC for work and i've made an attempt to be selectively social in his absence. did friday drinks with L whose dating exploits i live vicariously through. L's another crazy grad medic, with an LLB, teaching and nursing degrees and qualifications. i love her gumption and amazing ability to carp that diem, and she went to singers on a whim over summer. we'd fun working out dates before she left (she was in dundee, i was in london at the time) and met in twice at sea in singers. the first time we took the sampan for a spin and the second she invited me to a boat and beer party her friend was spinning at. along the way, she also introduced me to the key member of the l*ana cake family and i had my fangirl moment, having grown up with and associated l*ana with all good things. so i live in sg for over 20 years and it takes a visitor to get cosy with my favourite bakery! but L's a star and we were swapping stories till G rocked up. G, too, happened to be in singers this summer on her great SEA escapade and there was much sg love going round ;)
