Met Shawn @Bugis for a short while as he bought me some Taiwan tidbits (芝麻杏仁猪皮片 & 花生糖). Not just that, he also remembered that i've always wanted the DragonBall TV series, he managed to find a set for me, even thou the set is the same as the one i had now (also incomplete) but still im happy that he remembers what i wanted ^^ After passing me my presents, he had to leave as he's meeting his friend in NTU.
DragonBall Z TV Series
Some Taiwan Snacks
After that went dinner with Desmond Chua (SCB colleague) @Breko. Had the Fish & Wedges, while Des ordered the Grill-a-chick ..... Had lotsa fun there, we shared lotsa "冷笑话" and lame jokes. He really made me cracked my head, its been a long time since i hear "冷笑话" ..... After our dinner, before we leave, we bumped into Dila (another colleague) then we sat together and chatted till 11.30pm.
21st March 2006 (Tuesday) Ring Ring Ring, goes my office phone .... Me : Hello Sayang ..... (Cheeky tone) Faridah : I bought for you some cookies which i promised to buy for you. Me : Aiyoh ... So sweet .... Love you dear =D Faridah : Ok ok, i bring over har ....
Never expected her to really buy me the cookies, cos i recently made fun of her say im her little brother, why never buy me anything to eat? And im craving for Famous Amos cookies =D Then few days after, she just called and told me she bought the cookies for me liao. Im so touched .... she not just bought 1 packet, she even got me 2 different flavours (Macadamia and chocolate chips)

Recently got my bonus, she brought my granny out for dinner @鼎泰豐 asked my cousin Gina, and her son Lewis to come along too, ordered 2 basket of 小龙包, 1 plate of prawn fried rice, 1 plate of pork fried rice, i bowl of soup 水饺 and 1 bowl of 牛腩面. Everything costs $73.00, thats damn expensive lo, but ... once in awhile its ok la, but probably next time go eat 煮炒 will be more better ba, with $73.00 think can have better spread of food ..... =D
This year's AGM D&D is held @Furama Hotel. The thing i like about SCB is they always have 2 D&D in a year =D and also loved all those fun loving frens of mine ^^ This year's AGM D&D is consider a failure, mainly is because the ballroom is too small, and also they forbid us from reserving seats for frens. Thus the problem of frens seated away from one another arised. The food there is also not very good, in fact i rate it below average. But still i took this opportunity to meet up with all my fellow colleagues from other depts =)
Celebrated 雪妮 bday @Alison's boyfren's bar (Cushion & Cues Pool Bar) located @Tanjong Pagar. Along with Sabrina, Andy, Emil, Nicole, Clarissa, Nynn, Cheryl, me and of cos the main person 雪妮. Played the "Indian Poker" where everyone randomly pick a card and stick it on their forehead and try to guess whether are you having the smallest card and gauge if you want to fill up the cup in the middle of the table with beverage (beer/wine). The person with the smallest card will have to forfeit and drink up.
Initailly i was the one keep drinking, until a point that i almost threw up -.- Luckily luck changed, Andy became the next scapegoat, and eventually he passed out =D. Sabrina drove him home, along with Alison, we sent Andy back home safely while Nynn drive the rest to Chompchomp market for supper. After sending Andy home we join up with them at chompchomp. Chatted till around 3am, we went seperate ways. Nicole, Alison and i shared a cab home.
People reading this, do give some support to Alison's bar (Cooling open air bar with an indoor pool) The Address is :
The opening of the much anticipated Thailand horror movie "Dorm". Watched it with colleagues, Sabrina, Xueni, Andy and Sam @Tampines Mall directly after work. Before the show, was feeling abit scared (as usual) so i brought along my wind-breaker for cover =D. It was only scary at the beginning. But .... later part of the show, its no longer scary at all, its more of a heart warming show about friendship between a ghost and a boy -.-
12th March 2006 (Sunday) Walk walk walk. Walked the whole day today, damn tired now .... Met Jessica at Simei today as she wanted to get a portable hard disk from Suntec's IT fair. Took a train down to Suntec, encountered a human jam along bridge linking City Link to Suntec. Walked around the IT fair for 2 big rounds to find the booth from Best Bargain..... Imagine the crowd there and squeezing thru people for 2 big rounds! Gave up the search after that, while going out, we realised that we are at the wrong level -.-
Proceeded up to level 6, walked around that level to compare price. Managed to get it at $199 for a 100GB. Walked down to level 1 as we wanted to go get a drink, along the way, another human jam.... everyone literally came to a stop. NO MOVEMENTS AT ALL!!!!! Managed to push and squeeze past to the basement to get ourselves a drink from Mac. Walked over to Bugis Ajisen to have our dinner.
Walked over to Fabian's house (Kelantan Rd) to collect some DVDs. Then we walked to Little India (Mustafa Ctr) to shop as Jess has never been there before. From there we walked back to Bugis to sit down to have a drink. Met Shawn, KeeWee, Tim and Shawn at Coffee Bean. From there we walked to the MRT to take a train home ....
Got a additional 512MB Ram at $66 from Suntec's IT fair. Thereafter went for a drink in a Bar in Swissotel's name "Ink Club & Bar" A classy bar with a live band, can even request songs from them. Alot of AngMos, so don't really feel very at home in Singapore -.-
Quite an expensive nte out. Each one of us only ordered 2 drinks each (Marco had a Chivas 12yr & Martell Gorden Blue)(Alvin had 2 Johnny Walker Black Label)(I had a Lychee Martini & Johnny Walker Black Label) Chilled till 11.30pm, guess how much we spent for just a mere 2hrs stay? $108.39!!!!! Thats a damn expensive nite out together .....
Yeah!!!!! Got a treat from an ex-colleague of mine, Nynn (Not really ex-colleague, just that she got transferred to another dept) Left house at 1pm, Nynn is driving to my place to pick me up. As she just got her car, Alvin and i have to give her directions as she is not familiar with the roads!!!!! Several blunders while travelling down to Redhill to fetch Andy. Firstly, we missed the exit from PIE to CTE as i was too busy chatting with Alvin in the car while she's driving, by the time we noticed that she should turn left its already too late as she has been chiong-ing in the right lane ..... but thereafter we managed to exit at the next exit and made a U-turn back into CTE, then once again.... in CTE we missed the Outram exit! And went on to Bukit Merah's exit -.- from there, Alvin gotta check the street directory on how to get to Andy's house ..... By the time we reach Andy's place is already 1.45pm!
After picking Andy up, its Andy's turn to give directions as he's more familiar with that area. Directed Nynn to CTE again as she was thinking of using it to get to Orchard.... But .... that direction does not have an exit to Orchard! Ended up exiting at Newton and U-turn back into CTE to go back the other way for the Orcahrd exit (Sigh) But eventually we managed to get to our intended destination, Marina Square.
Andy, Nynn & Me
Have not decided on where we shall we settle our lunch. So i suggested Imperial Treasure Restaurant as 文杰 brought me there once on my last year's Bday and i kinda like the food there. All agreed and so we settled our lunch there. After that we had to rush over to Suntec for our 4pm service @The Newcreation Church (Was supposed to meet Shawn & Tim after the lunch to go Sentosa, but it seems like it's going to rain so it was being cancelled).
After the service, we went over to NYDC to have dessert. Ordered a Mudpie and a slice of Mocha cake. Chatted till 7.30pm and we bid Andy good bye as he is going to Orchard to collect something while Nynn sent me home. Luckily the trip home was relatively smooth, only that she exited at the wrong wrong, but still its in Tampines area so i can give directions. Then from my place she can just go straight and use the TPE to Sengkang, hope she did not lost her way there =D
