> 1:58 PM.
was still working yesterday (and am at work as i'm typing this entry), met wern at bugis at eleven to have breakfast (which ended up being two scoops of venezia, heehaw) walked around abit before heading to Haji.
Talking about that, Ros♥ came to visit me the day before! She got me my favourite Kiwi Drink from Bugis Village again too :D
Rushed rushed after work for dinner at Triple3@Meritus Mandarin. It was apparently Mexican buffet, and i dont know my mexican foods :b hahahaha.
That's a rare picture of me and my Dad (who obviously ain't comfortable with self portraits).
It is pretty seldom that the entire family goes out for dinner, and i actually really enjoy it everytime we get together. We always don't treasure things until they're gone, or we always want things we don't have, isn't it?
The restaurant is buffet based, so it all depends on yourself how you want your meal to be. It's really your choice if you want desserts for appetizers -.- I got myself a salad.
yay~ i enjoyed it, being a salad monster. The best part of it was actually the herbed croutons, as weird as i sound :b along with it is seasoned spicy shreaded crabmeat (yum) and spiced salmon with avocado in the little cups :D
Next up, seafood! The oysters were pretty good~ known to serve good lobsters, the mini lobster's meat was also really sweet (though it poked me D:) Muscles Mussels were o-k-a-y, the claimed marinated herbed asparagus had no taste ):
I was craving for soup so i helped myself to a bowl of lobster bisque. So-so, looked really boring and it was just solid orange in colour so i skipped picture taking for that. Pretty interesting stuff for the next plate. Took a piece of chocolate glazed chicken, but didn't really like the taste of it. The freshly cut beef with gravy was good, good :D and that chinese looking dessert at the top is actually beef covered in sesame, topped with red bean paste. Is it really mexican? It was so-so to me, considering i'm not really a fan of minced beef patties :/
Now as i'm narrating it all, it suddenly seems like i ate just a little. Dessert already?! Saw my mom start on her ice cream so i went to the dessert corner too. Ended up with strawberry chocolate fondue, and a little cup of mango pudding.
I feel like i'm a potential victim to a cold now, my throat feeling extremely vulnerable to cough/sore throat with all the heaty stuff i'm consuming. ah well~
second round of dessert, chocolate praline, carrot hawal and cookie (which really wasn't dessert but an ice cream topping :b).
Ended off dinner with a hot cup of tea and tiny spoonfuls of all the dessert my sister and her boyfriend took back to the table, hahaha.
Oh, and happy birthday, dad.

just when i had my hopes high,
sighsighsigh. Why do some people just have it all.
sometimes i hate how everything just clashes.
i want to keep to my school/cca/work commitments,
and sometimes its so tough, and tiring.
and i'm not exactly what you call determined,
and as much as this "isn't related",
i'm just not rich enough. ah well, ah well.
stay rooted, be happy, juu.
