Ytd i went to pick up c from work and she took an hour off (which turned out to be much needed.. haha)
Went to bugis -- heard of that new "illuma" building near bugis junction? Yep, we went to that one for dinner, which was... Benten! (no, dear readers, not ben10. It's a japanese restaurant). We've been wanting to go there ever since we passed by it to watch Wolverine.
Anw, the food thr is NICE.. ok, it's a bit pricey for my standards (I spent about $10+, i think?), so I wouldnt just go lunching there randomly, but there was a discount! Spend $30 and you get 25% off.
So c bought some grilled platter thingy -- grilled chicken with deep fried prawn and some fries -- while I got Cheese baked rice with salmon. And for some weird reason, I got th smaller portion (again!).. damn suay la.. haha =.= well, I guess mine was cheaper, so they put less in it. Anw, we topped it off with some green tea parfait, which is DA BOMB.. hohoho..
But th amount of salmon was more than I thought la.. I was half afraid they'd be a bit stingy, cos the other cheese baked rices (chicken & seafood) all cost th same price, so if th meat was more expensive, mb they'd skimp on the quantity. Well, im glad to say, they didnt =)
...at least not noticably.. mb I was too distracted to care =P jkjk..!
Anw, after that, we went to bugis street! bought me some new clothes again. c got me a whole new set (shirt & berms) for my bday present, and I got me a shirt. Then we looked through bugis street, dorothy perkins & topshop for c's uni clothes.. The thing that really struck me was how she could be half-limping from a muscle ache that's been following her from her SMU camp till now AND have cuts on her knees from a fall, AND still be able to keep walking and shopping O_o The wonders of the human mind working around the body's physical constraints. Just needed a little retail therapy as an incentive =) hehe
alrighty, I'm signing off here.. Going to c's hse for an early bday celebration =) gotta take th bus again cos th parents're out =.=
ciao!
