i think i am saddened by this loss of frenship.. perhaps one of my closest.. a good fren whom i spent 4 years of my undergrad with and after graduation, often whimsically think of asking for dinner.. one whom.. i randomly wanted to meet up for my birthday but sadly cldn't.. guess we're both too stubborn.. or perhaps i've lost faith...

somewhere along e way i've changed.. dunno if it's for e better or for e worse.. hmm.. is tis called worklife? or am i turning into a recluse?

i still love hanging out wif e girls.. meeting up wif old frens but i've gotten more lazy to do so.. wanting vs actually doing it.. e tot of doing so comes by but wif work n training n ocassional gg out, time just flies by.. hmm.. am i going tru each day without realising time is flying by? sometimes i even lose track of wat i'm doing at work.. hmm.. e repetitive motion of things, can be blinding...

jan came n left.. feb is nearing e end oredi.. hmm.. i need to find my goal again.. my drive..

shannie wif our half eaten food...

our mango + pamelo + sago dessert.. well.. shannie's dessert.. cos sk n i were too full to share much of it oredi..

by e end of our brunch.. all of us were stuffed to out throats.. imagine tiny little sk eating so much.. even shannie was impressed.. we walked out of e restaurant feeling like stuffed turkeys.. ready to be roasted & served.. kk.. kidding.. e dim sum was pretty good & price wise.. was quite okie.. shannie didnt get too broke after e treat.. yum yum dim sum!

a broke me was supposed to meet a 'broke' ash for 'window shopping' and dinner just now..

10 mins after meeting ash.. we walked into e MNG shop beside Shaw Towers.. n she picked out 4 dresses to try.. purchase : 3 dresses chalking up close to $200... hmm.......?

then she decided.. broke broke oredi.. shall head for dinner n not shop oredi... (reali?) haha.. we did head to far east plaza where she wanted to try a quaint little jap place tat she n LP walked past b4 but hav not tried.. guess wat.. we waited in e queue for more than an hour.. but....... e wait was well worth.. e food was goood!!

appetizer? some black thingie wif fish pieces.. quite nice..

our super thick salmon sashimi.. compare e thickness to e chopstick.. e sashimi was easily 1.5+cm thick

my grilled cod... very juicy and delicious..

ash's sushi dish.. look at how thick e sashimi slices are.. above e tiny cube of rice..

everything was made/cut fresh.. e chef only cuts e sashimi for several customers at a go.. so tat e sashimi is definitely fresh i guess.. even our appetizer was brought out in a batch wif other customers who ordered earlier.. maybe steamed at one go.. so tat e food is just well cooked.. not reheated..

apart from e odd 'place all orders together & second orders will be charged 20% more'.. e super unfrenly chef... and not so frenly other staff, e place is not bad.. a nice meal for two (not easy to get seats for many.. hav to wait for ppl to leave in order to get seats in e tiny eatery)

after dinner.. ash suggested walking ard a bit... she walked into tis shoe shop n guess wat... a pair of shoes! $30+?

an even more 'broke' ash then decided... no more no more.. cannot spend oredi n we headed towards e mrt.. BUT BUT... miss aash realised she doesnt hav a shoe bag.... tat's why she's not gg to e gym? lol... so we headed back to Shaw/Isetan n she bought a shoe bag.. which was quite cheap la... only $16+...

she called JH who was ending work oredi in abt half hour's time n held me hostage (haha.. kidding) till he was done.. lol.. well.. we met JH n she bought me a macaroon from canele for accompany her till JH finished.. treat him to a cake n macaroon too.. e poor guy hasnt had his dinner i tink.. anyway.. JH sent me back n tat was my nite.. it was fun gg out wif ash la.. n enjoing good food :) oh.. btw.. e jap place is called wasabi tei..

finally gave shannie her long awaited bdae meal treat from sk n i.. we tried e korean food at novena.. hmm.. e food was so-so.. but i tink i prefer e one i had in PJ section 17.. shannie had e ginseng chicken soup..(according to her.. it's chicken soup wif half a tiny piece of ginseng) sk n i shared e bibimbab (i tot e rice was not dry enuf.. e stone pot wasnt hot enuf?) we oso tried e spicy cuttlefish.. bleh.. they didnt marinate e cuttlefish enuf.. e cuttlefish itself tasted bland.. e spice was on e outside.. kimchi wise.. hmm.. tink i've tasted better...

anyway.. no pix of us... but there's a pix of a little fella i made from e leftovers.. :p

most of u shld know i'm staying away from home.. i do hav a place to stay.. n wif great landlords (my fren's sister's family) but somehow it's different from being home.. a house is not a home if not for e ppl within.. for those of u staying wif ur parents.. appreciate ur parents for wat they've given u and for who they've brought u up to wat u are now.. let down e 'stubborness' and proud facade, take step back to see wat they have sacrificed for us, and e little things they will do for us... as naggy or 'irritating' parents may be, wat they truly wan it e best for us..

(p/s: i'm not feeling home-sick.. just a tot i had for a while oredi)
