The Weekend...
So it just came and gone, just went out on both days, having no work done at all. I'm not complaining about that though.
Alright, I went out with Dear to Funan, with the intention of looking at some laptop bags. It was easy looking through, cos they were either too small for my laptop or too ugly. In fact I only saw two nice bags, but so are the price tags, all in excess of 100 bucks! No way I'm willing to pay so much for a laptop bag! No objections if the bag is a gift though, but my birthday is still far away.
Saw this even nicer bag on the web while surfing, but just too bad I didn't see the real one in the shop. Wonder if my laptop would fit; really love this one! *whines*
Oh yeah, I replaced my Nalgene water bottle -- with the exact same one. Can't make up my mind whether to pick another colour initially, but still decided the old one looks the best.
As we all know, the weather was the worst in days on Saturday, when the PSI even hit all-time high of 150. See how hazy the landscape of Cityhall looks!! Imagine those people who were at the Padang at the Nokia Starlight Movie event, breathing in all that smoke. I pity them.. I just want to head indoors to some air-conditioned buildilng!
After leaving Funan, we made our way to Golden Mile Complex for our dinner. It was an eye-opener! I never knew that place was like a little Thailand! There was the Thai supermarket, Thai movies/songs that were played in the vcd shops, all the stalls serving Thai food, and of cos the Thais themselves.
We settled for this place, and got our food. A sumptous dinner with sambal kangkong (our all-time favourite dish), chicken with red wine or sth, and clear tom yum soup! Frankly, the food didn't turn out as good as we anticipated, cos it wasn't served steaming hot.
That concluded my Saturday. So on Sunday, I met up with the sisters, and the 'brothers' for a trip down to Settler's Cafe. I have heard about it for such a long time, but it's actually my first time there. I must say, I was kinda surprised at how small the place is, or perhaps just cos I was expecting to see a more cosy setting -- a low table on carpet or sth like that. But nah..
Alright, so we played a few games, including some brainless (reflex) fruit game, Ticket to Ride, I'm the Boss! (below) and Sequence. Not a bad way to spend time, only that too much brain work and decision making is needed sometimes, which isn't my cup of tea. Haha..
So I got a little bored and whipped out my camera, and started taking silly pictures. Presenting the sisters, who very readily put up their smiles and leaned towards each other when I said "Cheez".. Hehe..
But DAMN, I actually forgot to take a group photo! *regrets*
Then we had dinner at Newton Circus -- also my first time there! Many first times for the day.. Ordered sambal stingray, hokkien mee and satay. Talked some crap, and concluded studying is still better! So I should learn to appreciate my last year better.
I must say I'm really exhausted; time to go snuggle in my bed! Goodnight...
