Back to blogging (continued, part 7)

This is part 7 of the back to blogging series, starting with events from June till now. I have not been blogging about the events and thoughts for the past few months. I feel that it helps when you want to review a couple of years later back what has happened today. So I make it a point to blog these things down, even though they sound trivial.

A week's worth of updates from 23 July - 29 July.

23-26 July 二姨二姨丈到新加坡玩
二姨跟二姨丈came to Singapore for holidays. Honestly, I didn't have the time to take them around, Mon + Wed IPT, gosh. But cousin brought them around Singapore, visited the 2 casinos, Garden by the Bay, which was good.

They went back on Thurs.

26 July Last Korean lesson
Went Ming Jia @ Bukit Timah Plaza with PG on a Thurs afternoon. Tried the kimchi fried rice ($8), nothing extraordinary about it when compared to Kim Dae Mun's version. Haha...

김치볶음밥(泡菜炒飯)

味道還可以,但是還可以更夠味一點,價錢稍微貴一點點

After that went to Udders to finish up the thank you card making works. Ordered D24 and rum-'n'-raisin flavoured ice cream with waffle. It was nice, the rum-'n'-raisin had rum amount doubled! The taste was strong, but I haven't 'tong' yet. Haha...

Rum 'n' raisin! 超超超夠味的,據說酒精加倍的說

Last Korean lesson with Sia. Passed the card for her. She was super shocked to receive that, bet nobody has given her a gratitude for her teachings in Korean language. Haha, but that's good, her reaction had met our expectation.

*Language is something which needs practice everyday, even if it's minimial training.

呵呵,半完成品

 Nicholas時就預先做好信封

 完成品!

香蕉牛奶、炸醬麵、缺席、老師

 全照(我們是信號燈 aka 交通燈)ᄏᄏᄏ

很喜歡這張~


Then went 주막 as it was quite late - the other restaurants might have closed for the day. Just ordered 자장면 but spicy version ($27 for 3 servings). OMG, it was super super spicy!!!! Really can't take it :(
 好大份的炸醬面!

別以貌取人:真的很辣!


27 July JB K session
Went karaoke again @ JB today, with WX and PG. Was given the same rate and duration, but the meal menu was changed. So this time round I ordered the most expensive western chicken chop (RM18++). It's considered quite nice already, given it's from karaoke. Slightly salty though.

黑胡椒雞排 + 烤蝦肉 = 不錯吃,但有點鹹

Had a variety of songs, including Korean and Japanese, thanks to WX. But I didn't know how to sing in languages other than mandarin and cantonese though. lol...

After the K session, we went around City Square. Seriously there was no incentive to go City Square now unless you're in for karaoke. About 60% of the mall is undergoing renovation now, so I think it's quite pointless to go there during this time.

Toured around those 'Bugis street style' shops. WX bought a battery for his old PSP. *Brought back memories of my once-alive PSP... Misses DJ Max series.

Dinner was settled at 旺角茶餐廳. 30% discount for patronage before 6pm weekdays. 簡直是撿到便宜啦!蜜汁雞麵 quite salty. OMG...

 蜜汁雞麵,也是有點鹹

Then we walked to Starbucks @ JB Sentral to enjoy the 1-for-1 offer. Starbucks Malaysia has this 1-for-1 offer on Wed and Fri from 6pm to 8pm. Naturally, we waited to redeem the offer lo.

 Green tea + red beans!

Chilled there as WX got a lot of things to 爆料. Suddenly just remembered who's the toothbrush man. Then also realised he's related to someone we know~~


28 July NDP rehearsal fireworks, Garden by the Bay
Didn't want to stay at home so went out. Last few days before school starts. Haiz.

To make things worse, everybody is so busy with their schedule, nobody accompanied me to go out. But also good, go out alone and do what I want.

Reached City Hall in the evening, weather wasn't super good, looked like raining like that. Took the Promenade MRT route to get to MBS then Garden by the Bay. But was a bit swayed by the public crowding around to see the NDP Preview and the fireworks later on.

人山人海,幾乎清一色

浮動台階

近拍

夜幕低垂



煙花是蠻美的啦,看影片更美

So decided to stay put and wait for 8pm to come. LOL... By then, the weather was getting worse, just before left the place, it started to drizzled, and slowly got bigger and bigger. Spoiled bmy plan to go Garden by the Bay.

Just when the rain has stopped, decided to just tour around the place before I left home. But just as I was touring around, the rain got bigger again =.=

 蠻喜歡這張的,如果是DSLR拍就更好看了



 遠遠看好像是外星不明物體咯 =.=

A bit sian for this day.


29 July Marble Slab offer, Spinelli offer, gossips, 김대문
First met WX at Jcube to get the Marble Slab offer after I missed out the free cone day the day before! Argh...

$1 per scoop, but 2 mins waiting time vs F.O.C but 1 hour queuing up. I rather pay $1 for the ice cream. Chose the Butter Pecan flavour while WX went for Red Velvet.

Red Velvet was rather normal, Butter Pecan tasted like some 花生糖果. We ate the ice cream while enjoying people doing ice skate (Yes, I'm going ice skate 2 days after!). After which, I got another outing to attend.

PG mentioned the Spinelli offer continued for 2 weeks. So I also wanted to join in and off we headed to Labrador Park to wait for Nicholas. Suddenly, HH said he wanted to join us for dinner. But we already had 김대문 in mind liao, lol.

Ordered 4 cups, choc mint, mocha, cookies and banana. Out of the 4, I don't really like the choc mint flavour, doesn't go well with the blended ice, lol.

 買一送一,覺得薄荷巧克力最不好喝,其他的都ok

Then the service crew chased us away as it's closing for the day. We then moved off to Concord Hotel's basement for dinner. Addicted to Korean food, we visited 김대문 once again. Had their 라면 for the first time, while the rest chose 김치볶음밥.

拉麵蠻綜合式的,有菜有肉還有海苔,$5是算大碗了

Continued with HL/Sebastian topic until HH really didn't appear at all, then we left for home.

... to be continued.
