A day of first experiences
Saturday, December 16, 2006
I got posted to TPJC. Did have a gut feeling that's where I'd be ending up. Trying to appeal into SA though. Can only hope it goes through.
Had a heck of an outing with Cass and Aunty Eileen[AE] yesterday. Originally, I'd planned to bring them to Sakuraya in Parkway [the Japanese store/restaurant] for lunch but that plan got thrown straight out the window when AE asked whether we wanted to go to Vivocity [for the first time]. So off we went. Vivo. Is. Friggin. Huge. Went to Swensen's [for the first time as well] for lunch. Got the black pepper steak. Medium. Like I told Cass and AE: I always feel like a barbarian when I tuck into a good steak. *points* "
You juicy. Me likey." *insert tribal chant*
Oh and there's a Japanese store that sells everything for $2, Daiso, and I mean it sells
everything. Watched Eragon in the cinema while AE went shopping--I had to keep reminding myself to think of the novel and movie as separate entities because I think the movie had only about 5-10% in common with the novel. I wasn't the only one who got pissed by the movie...lots of people were complaining as well lol..Of course those who hadn't read the novel found the movie fine [Cass] so when we got to Parkway I bought her the book as an early birthday gift. Was hunting high and low for the bloody book and when I finally asked one of the workers there she told me it was at the entrance *sweatdrops* I was looking for the original blue cover with Saphira's picture on it...
After going round PP for a while, we headed over to KBOX for some singing and dinner. The people who run it are freaking smart. They say it's 26 bucks per person and they pile 15% more for services[what serving us the bill?] and GST. At least the dinner buffet was good.
English is the language I share an affinity with so I've always thought of myself as a 'kentang'. But I was bored when I got home so I did a little list of the songs I sang. Number of English songs I sang : 7. Number of Mandarin songs I sang : 15. Oh dearie me. Strange though, I have a feeling that I sound nicer when I sing in Chinese.
