Sketchy Beginnings

I was at school today at 3pm for the briefing which I thought was a sketching excursion. Unaware of the current situation I signed up for what turned out to be a recruitment drive for the sketching club. OMG I thought it was a briefing for an excursion...so blur again.
I guess its alright. I like drawing and exploring new environments so the club actually is a perfect fit for my personality and endearments.
Ms Gail explained in detail the club's activities and aims. Pretty much a standard introduction.
Tomorrow we will be getting intimate with Little India. I'm excited about the impending trip. I always wanted to go on sketching trips but I guess I was fearful of being mocked by passers-by.

After the short half hour discussion. I went to Orchard road to buy a sketchbook that I had seen once at Wheelock's Borders. Before I went there however I made a stop at Orchard MRT's Popular Bookstore. I was browsing through some comic books when I had a chance meeting with Catherine. She had just finished working at her dad's Perfume/Toiletries shop and sauntering about town before coincidentally entering the same bookstore.
She had a quick appraisal of the chinese comics and I asked whether she would like to visit borders with me. Since she was waiting for her father who was engaged in an important conference with his staff, she obliged. Borders was having a sale for 2005 calendars. I like the art calendars which had signature works of Dali and other famous painters.
The sketchbook was still available and I purchased it without delay as Catherine informed me that Anthony was waiting for her at the train station. I was distracted by so many books and peripherals on sale at borders but as I had told Cat, I hadn't the money to buy them.
We left the megabook store and found Anthony seated at the staircase. 5 mins later I bade them farewell and went homeward bound.
