Y I've been crying for so long, fighting tears just to carry on, but now, but now, it's gone away~~
i've had a wonderful Saturday, so how was yours, peeps? =) Labels: Daily Drivel
made plans to Comex 2007 with a bunch of good pals (han de, jian wen and yun) today. the guys had cravings for some Botak Jones, hence i travelled all the way to Clementi to meet them for it. yes, i know there's one at AMK as well, but well, since i'm the only NORTH person so i guess i had to be the one making sacrifices, no? LOL.
after lunch, we took 106 to City Hall. oh BTW, i think i'm hooked to yun's Nintendo DSLite already! HOW? please stop me if i ever say i wanna buy one for myself one day, because i'm sure some of you know i damn 三分钟热度, so it's a big NO-NO for me to buy such gadget. so remember to stop me okie? :x
shopped around Raffles City awhile, as Han De wants to get something from MPH Bookstore. haha! when we reached the Comex Show, it was already 3pm. oh boy, the fair seems to be so much bigger than the previous ones, with wider walkways and many more exhibits. the 4 of us stayed focused to our target buys (external HDD, speakers & mouse) and began checking out booths are booths comparing prices. basically, all i have to do was to follow and pay, because jian wen was the one helping us to enquire and compare prices of the different brands. spent 3 hours roaming about, and i got myself a 160GB 2.5" Samsung (IDE) external HDD and some new supplies of Imation CD-R. woooohooo, great buys! =)
after we're done with the fair, yun and i had the most insane night ever. we walked so many wasted kilometres and spent some unnecessary moolahs! alright, here goes our story..
Initial Plan 1: Kbox Buffet; Failed.
Reason: $32 Per Pax. 6pm - 9pm. totally not worth it.
Initial Plan 2: Oscar's Dinner Buffet at Conrad; Failed.
Reason: $55++ Per Pax (about $67 Nett). Too expensive, for food which was said to be not that nice.
Initial Plan 3: Ellenborough Market Cafe's Dinner Buffet at Swissotel Merchant Court; Failed.
Reason: Full house. 'nuff said. (we cabbed from Conrad to Merchant court btw. -_-)
and, FINALLY.
we took the train to Holland V, which we were pretty sure there's bound to be SOMETHING for us to eat. haha! and i think we made a very wise choice to Holland V. the streets are filled with such a chilled-out vibe you could not get anywhere else. today, we had chinese cuisine at Crystal Jade Kitchen, which was pretty much a disappointment to me. but, i'm very determined to go back there to try out the rest of the restaurants. and yes, i'm still dying to go WALA WALA! *tugs Eadric korkor's shirt* let's go? LOL! :P
after which, we had our delectable ice cream dessert at Cold Rock Ice Creamery! Cold Rock originated from Australia and opened its first outlet right here in Holland! if you thought IceKimo (Sin Ming Road) was good, this is way better! here you get to choose your choice of ice cream and there's no limit to the mix-ins of your choice! (mix-ins are $1 each). i had Strawberry ice cream with mini m&m and marshmellow mixed. nice like anything! im definitely going back more often, and i simply must try everything! tsk.
hanged out in Cold Rock for quite awhile, chit-chatting with Yun about life and everything. it's been great hanging out this way with ya girl. let's head down to Holland V more often in future! BUT, how come there's no direct buses from Holland V to the north?! that's the reason why i had to resort to take a cab home just now. :P
lastly, something you might dread looking at - our faces. all taken outside Conrad, while waiting for a cab. :x
yun thinks she looks cute in this pix. what do you think? LOL
:)

each time the train passes by that rows of blue flats, my natural reaction was to turn and look to that direction and le heart filled with melancholy. maybe that's the reason why i've not stepped into that area for months... :(
我始终变得 不多愁善感
回忆还像心跳 那么难忘
拥抱的热 还留在我们的身上
缘分却不能反抗
爱人不变朋友实在 太难
希望离别能让 以后
更快乐 更幸福 更美满
