just another week
monday evening, the bf and i went to paragon for dinner at ding tai fung. we havent eaten that in the longest time, considering we used to frequent ding tai fung alot. the food is just as good as it was before. delightful.tuesday evening, we decided to go holland v to try out the cold rock ice cream. we didnt have much difficulty finding the place. i took a long time to decide on the ice cream and the lady behind the counter didnt seem very friendly. i picked out double chocolate and ferrero, for the mix-in, we picked gummy bears and almond nuts. the medium cup costs 7.50 and the mix-in is a dollar each. we paid 9.50 in total. my verdict, i wouldnt try it again. i thought its overrated and overpriced. maybe we didnt pick the right ice cream. the ice cream tasted, in my opinion, like cheap ice cream. haagen daz ice cream is so much better. we walked around to look for places for dinner. we settled for hogs breath. we ordered a bruschetta and chicken dijonnaise to share cos the portion is huge. i never really liked chicken breast but we have limited choices cos the bf cant take beef. but i have to say the grilled chicken breast meat tasted great. this meal made up for the unsatisfying ice cream.
wednesday evening, i met vincent in town. we had dinner at my frequent hangout place again. my brother came later to join us too, he ordered a plate of spagetthi and it came with so lil sauce. the mushroom madness i had earlier on had more sauce than his. so i asked the waitress for some sauce. she disappeared for a fairly long time before i saw her consulting the team leader. she then came to me and said i had to pay a dollar more. i know for additional sauce i have to pay a dollar. but the sauce on my bro's plate was just pathetic and insufficient for the noodle. i mean its unjust to pay extra to get what you should get. the waitress then asked for the team leader. i explained to him that the sauce is too little for the noodle and he just said he'll add more sauce. he took the plate to the kitchen and return several minutes later with more than sufficient sauce. i cant help to suspect that they added extra "ingredient" into it cos he gave a indifferent face. maybe i think too much cos my bro said it tasted fine.
friday, i spent the night playing mahjong with keong, reys and ah cai at eunice's place. i wasnt having much luck in the beginning and it started to pick up together with my headache. earlier in the day, i started having mild headache but i ignored it. then it got so bad, i couldnt play, i asked eunice to help me continue. its always the case. its the second or third time im having headache while playing mahjong with them. the last time was worse. i think im just getting weaker. i recalled the few times i had headache or fever while im clubbing or at a friend's birthday party, more so with this cliche. maybe i hang out with them at night more often. i had headache at rey's chalet last year and i had flu at her party at clinic this year. )=back to mahjong, im happy i won a lil. i think this is the first time i won against 3 players. i usually either lose or win a few bucks. i was still worried i would lose alot cos i always played the minimum. anyway, sorry girls for my sickly state.saturday, i met up with the girlies at vivo city for the close door sale at topshop. the event is from 4.30pm to 6.30pm. we got there at 5.30pm and it was already open for public. eunice, reys and i bought some basics at 20% for 2 pieces. we paid $15.20 for each top. then, we did some shopping before having dinner. there were so many people everywhere. eunice and reys went to meet up with eunice's friends while i shop for the bf berms cos he was wet from the rain. i didnt want to wait till he comes cos i think he will stopped me from buying and just do with the damped clothings. i went to quite a number of shops like ip zone, samuel and kevin, thirtyseven degrees, kappa, ripcurl.. i finally managed to get one in his size at freshbox. i was thinking of a top too but i didnt have the time. i met up with the bf, before we went to look for reys at bk.after he changed, we went to republic foodcourt for dinner. i had the same ol' thing, lotus soup with rice and my $2 lady fingers. the soup tasted better than the last time. the hassle of squeezing through the crowd and finding seats seem all worthwhile. later, we met up with reys, eil and her bf at the open area just outside the food court. reys bf came to pick her 45mins later, 15mins earlier than i had expected. from there, we went on separate ways.sunday, here i am, updating my blog. i have been home the whole of today. i was supposed to meet angela in the late afternoon. in fact, i have been waiting for her reply since morning. so freaking bored at home. she only woke up at 3+pm. she had to finish her chores before she could come out. after she was done at 5+pm, she msged me and asked if i was riding and i replied her im taking a train. she didnt want me to travel alone so far and her sister was home alone, so she decided to meet another day. after a day of waiting.. )= im sure she would have meet me if i wanted to. but since she said she could have dinner with her sister cos her sister is home alone and i was a tiny wee bit lazy, plus the fact that we could only meet for less than 3 hours seem abit pointless. havent had lunch and dinner so im going to look for food now.have a great week!
