Was out shopping for New Year clothing with Soephix. Went over to Hartamas (our usual shopping haunt) at 8pm. It's always tough to get a parking there but, I got it. Went to some of the boutiques.
"Nah! The design too simple", "Too expensive", "No size?", "Can't try?". 
These are the excuse I always give myself when I go shopping to prevent overspending. While i was looking at those clothes, comes along Soephix with her both hand with clothes. There are pink, blue, peach... Well, she s trying all of the clothes she is having. She came out from the fitting room and heads to the counter. Sigh! I'm still empty handed. Then we went to the next shop.
Pink! yes, this pink blouse under the 50% sales section. Weird, the Normal price showing RM 49.90 and now it's RM 19.90. Anyway, what am I waiting for. I just grab it and head to the counter and pay. At least I got something for New Year. We continue to the other side of the shops. 
In there, me and Soephix found a blue pants which seems nice. Well, because the shops only have 2, which is the new pants that Soephix bought and the pants that was on the shelf for trying. Of course, I prefer a whole new one, so I guess I shall go to Bangsar for it on Saturday.
On the way home, we had a talk. I was kind of surprise on the conversation we had.
S: My colleagues ask me why you didn't call me anymore.
K: Haha.. They miss me?
S: Well, I miss your voice too. But I told them that you resigned that's why need not call me from office anymore.
She added 
S: But I told them that... "This friend of mine.. sigh... I also pity her. Nothing in her life seems easy. Luck is always not with her. Studies, relationships and now, career. I hope she will be better." Don't worry, the sun will shine after the storm. The sky will soon be clear.
K: (Gasp!) But... Why are you feeling sorry for me or even pity me? I don't see that as unlucky or anything. I mean, it's something that educates me. Take career for example, at least, I know what to seek and what I want. I know I will be successful in my career. I'm not worry, and so you should not too. If I didn't met such obstacle, I will not learn. Not everyone has a chance to experience it. (I gave her an wink).
S: I'm glad that you think it this way. Anyhow, I do wish you have enough of these. Ever since SPM, you life.. Let's hope it will be better.
K: I'm glad that you care, but I felt guilty for you to worry such minor things of mine. Anyway, i can assure you, things are not that bad. It is getting better that the past. I can walk out from the circle in the past, and now its nothing already.
After sending Soephix home, I begin to think, I'm really lucky to have such friend. i'm not that unlucky afterall. I'm lucky all these while.
