I had a really fun and enjoyable time for the past couple of days..i took two days off from work to spend more time with steph cos he is flying off soon. We went to east coast beach on thurs where we had a super time sunning and dipping in the water, both of us were lobster red before the sun was out. After sunning,we went for a mini marathorn of cycling for him and rollerblading for him which was around 10km. Out intention was to make it to changi beach,but we only went as far as Safra. On the journey back, my legs were huring like mad and it was so torturous cos I had a blister on one foot and the blades didnt fit very well, resulting in a swollen calf.. At nite, we met the kaetna folks for dinner at fish n co. It was great to meet up with them and catch up on each other's life and I really missed them as well..so there goes the madness and laughter again. And the food was yummy as well, shared a seafood platter with 3 ppl,so I got to eat everything, plus room for subway cookies which I have grown quite fond of recently,esp the white chip macadamia which is simply mmmmm..
On Fri, it was shopping cum sight seeing. We went to isetan and I managed to squeeze in to Mango and got a really nice denim mini skirt and a orange top..yeah bright orange, but steph convinced me that I have too many pink stuff in my wardrobe.. I am not too convinced though,would be back again next week when the kids are back in sch and the adults are working to shop at leisure. After that we just wandered around orchard and into topshop where I got another skirt, a turquiose pleated skirt which steph nodded his approval enthusiatically when I worn it out...hahah..I musy say he has pretty good taste in clothes, can be my fashion consultant. After that, we went down to arab street which was pretty cool as I have never been there before, it was like a discovery channel excursion. We took a lot of pics in a place called sleepy sam's which I suppose is sort of like a rest place for tourists but the deco was really nice. After that, we went changi airport to look at planes,again, steph got really excited and started snapping away with my camera until it ran out of batt. Dinner was at popeye's which has really nice fried chicken. But the real KT(I thought, was the buttermilk biscuit which is sort of like scones and comes with maple syrup and the sides of colesaw and whipped potato was way better than KFC's.
Today, I went with steph and his 'brothers' to Johor for a shopping trip. We took a bus there and back which is actually much faster than driving there, in my opinion. We went straight to citysquare shopping centre which is like this super huge place filled with shops and ppl. The guys and the girls split up and we headed straight for the FOS outlet where I got 3 shirts and super KT price, a purple abercrombie and fitch, blue JLO, and another pink shirt which says sugar and spice and everything nice...hmm,doesnt that sound familiar?? hahah. Then we headed to mango where once again, it was madness inside, the prices were much cheaper than that of Singapore lah, so I just bought a nice turquoise blue top which didnt have my size in Singapore. After all that spending, I decided to rein myself in, and thus for the rest of the time there, I did not buy anything else, pretty proud of my willpower actually..haah... My new found dessert kaki and I headed to some cafe and ordered a tiramisu, choc cheesecake and choc mousse cake and a strawberry smoothie..hahah..that was before we discovered there was Secret recipe in the mall, I was damn sad after that...hahh..the cakes was alright la, but I didnt like the orange peel in the choc mousse and the cheesecake was too hard. The tiramisu was nice though..
After that, we took a cab down to this seafood restaurant next to the sea which sold seafood at super cheap prices. We only paid about 30 ringgit per head, and trust me, we ordere a lot of food. I liked the chili crab with fried bun,but thought there was not enough sauce and the crab meat was kind of tough but the steamed fish was very fresh. One work- satisfying meal...hahah... It was quite a good trip, I only spent about $100 all on food, clothes and transport for the whole day..man, was it cheap.. Had such a wonderful 3 days..
Pics I promised are on the way, still trying to get the hang of it. I shall just use my old method and post some of the pics on my blog first...
