la toya was scolded

it was fun and 'la toya' was so happy to overwhelm me with his recent expanded song repetoire.. lol (inside joke)

ok aniwez i think i've kinda found the way to avoid spending money on shopping le, cos after much reflections, i kinda realize how much money I have wasted on stuff that either shrunk in the wash (bloody ck shirt) or just turned out impractical, ugly or just unflattering. haha.

so yeah.. i'm gonna avoid all shopping centers and stick with my ole' plain clothes. yeah.. let's see how this lasts. i only have these current things on my shopping list.

1. backpack - bought @ army market
2. running shoes - bought @ queenstown
3. blazer
4. jacket

no more than that! err.. maybe also a wallet cos mine is kinda cuiz. STUPID bangkok trip man.. buy all the fake stuff cheap cheap then think so happy, now my fake birkens have literally no grooves on the sole such that I have to avoid water puddles and smooth surfaces at all costs, and then my billabong wallet is like rotting away. -__ geeez, i'm a pretty stupid shopper afterall.

katong laksa!

met with sheryl, ernie and wang yang for katong laksa today.. kinda silly to traipse so far down to katong just for laksa but.. hmmz.. worth it! haha

juz a few random musings:-
a. eating with ernie makes u feel so happy. lol! cos he pigs out and then complains for a full 5 minutes about being super full and not being able to walk, THEN goes to settler's cafe, orders sotong balls and EATS your share. -_-

b. playing board games with ernie is also super fun especially those reflex games where he takes a full second to realise everyone has spotted the similar cards and another second to respond by flailing his arms anxiously to no avail. lol! give that man his coffee man..

jap food takes the cake

bleah.. still super jet lagged. slept fm 7.00pm to 4.30am today. -_- wah.. irregular to the max.

whilst i was awake, my parents managed to drag me to this absolutely fantastich japanese restaurant in this mall called central to have lunch. speaking of malls, singapore continues to amaze me at the rate the shopping malls keep sprouting up and flourishing.

aniwez, lunch was a kamemashi set, gindara teriyaki set, and some delicious uber bento set my parents ordered. and i'll take back whatever good praises i've heaped upon plum tree because under comparison, plum tree doesn't even deserve to clean this place's toilets. lol

the food is seriously GOOD. and for prices below plum tree. sigh..


bento set

the full extravanganza
