Halloween Night

Met Kar Cheng and Henglip to go to Clarke Quay together for a Halloween night out. Luckily 4th Aunt was driving, if not, we would have to take public transport with Henglip who was dressed as a gladiator (complete with a helmet crowned with red feathers).

Met his 2 fellow gladiators at Clarke Quay , as well as Cleopatra. We then trooped towards MOS and the 4 of them commanded a great deal of attention. Suddenly, Kar Cheng and I felt so old and out of place. We decided to celebrate next Halloween in costumes!

Civilian and gladiator

After seeing these Roman chaps enter MOS through the priority queue, Kar Cheng and I were about to go to Zouk when live reports from Wee and Ah Sir made us decide to enter MOS instead.

We saw many sporting bunnies, vampires, students, ghouls, Romans, angels, devils, police, warriors, Superman, geeks, princes, cross-dressers, nurses, Minnie mouse, sailors, French maids, brides that have risen from the dead, anime characters, doctors, geishas, penguin etc. Among my favourites was the B Man. If you are also wondering what does the 'B' stand for, apparently it is just a B, though I remembered he said 'blowjob' when I asked him. Anyway, he really is a jolly hero.

After packing in some bloody expensive poison, we then flitted from the hip-hop room to the techno room to the retro room to the lounge, and all over again. The music kind of sucks because I am so used to the music at dbl 0.

KG later came and joined us after his D&D, and he said he could be the insurance agent with what he was wearing. Some fellow even thought he was the bouncer and asked him for directions.

Some weird priest

I think I am in love with this sexy guy who dressed up in a RGS uniform.

This asshole spritzed me with water when I touched his showerhead. Henglip thought he was a lanternfish.

This joker in a trenchcoat came along and flashed his fake DVDs and announced "I am the real pirate!"

After some vigorous dancing at the techno room and some uncomfortable contact with some sweaty bodies, we got worn out and left. Conclusion of the night: Costume-wearers certainly had the most fun tonight.

I Love Mac's Breakfast

I love MacDonald's breakfast. It is worth it to wake up super early at 10.30am just to sink your teeth into their Hotcakes (ooooo ... the mapple syrup is like an aphrodisiac) and various unhealthy food. Somemore I had coupons which entitled Slug and I to an extra burger for every meal purchased, and so we got Sausage Egg McMuffins!

Fast food galore

I think the early waking was not doing Slug's brain any good. He put salt into his coffee and spread grape jam on his scrambled eggs. Disgusting.

We topped our lovely morning off with a walk around the Sunday flea market in his neighbourhood. There were many stalls selling clothes, crystals, decorations, towels, accessories and toys. There was a stall selling maternity dresses and as I was checking out a hideous black one with rainbow polka dots, the stallholder looked at me after saying "Can I help you?", giggled and went off. What the Hell. Can't unfertilized women take a sneak preview at the kind of fargly dresses that they probably have to wear at some point of time?

There was another stall selling some dodgy glue that was purportedly better than the trademark Elephant superglue and able to glue together rubber surfaces (like rubber flip-flops). The stallholder commanded an audience (including us) and started preaching about the goodness of the glue. As soon as the stallholder finished his baloney, everyone started fishing out money from their wallets, including Slug. I was baffled. It was like everyone was in a trance and giving him their money without any hesitation. And that was $2 for two tubes of glue that looked more like tampons.

To digress, here is my lovely Meow Meow.

The lizards' nemesis

And also Wee's Tiger (whom I think looks like Meow Meow).

A Day at Suntec

Went to Suntec to meet up with my Babs and poke fun at her, then had lunch with Slug at Changing Appetites. Set lunches at $7.90 only, and all cakes at 50% because it was Tuesday! Here I am relishing one!

Watched Me, You and Dupree after that. A funny show which is pro-women (meaning if you want to discipline your bf, put him through this show and make him learn the ways to treat a woman right!). After that, we had a hearty buffet at Siam Kitchen! It is a 20-course dinner that really made us want to puke. There were prawn crackers, chicken satay, minced pork salad, fried tofu, spicy pomelo salad, omelette, pineapple rice, prawn red curry, chicken green curry etc.

A feast not for the ill-prepared

Goodbye to such carefree weekdays. Hello to the working world.

Day at Vivocity

Went to Vivocity with Slug to take a look at the largest and spanking new shopping mall. Disappointingly, many great shops have yet to open and the crowd was horrible. After a quick lunch, we quickly fled to Suntec.

Sushi at Sakae Sushi

To make our day better, we had sushi for dinner. Looks like we would have to wait till December for Vivocity to be fully operational.

Steamboat with dearest cousins

Went to Marina South for a steamboat dinner with Ah Sir, Wee, Kar Cheng, his Thai girlfriend named Fern and two of his friends. When we arrived at the steamboat restaurant, the auntie waitress was fawning over Kar Cheng, whom I think really enjoyed the attention. We were given two tables in a poorly-ventilated area.

I got the chance to eat my favourite satay chicken and black pepper chicken, which Wee cooked for me. You should see her earnestness when she really gets into the barbecuing, especially her prawns. I should say the best items there were the humble fried butter bun and the fried wonton. To our amazement, Fern ate an assortment of food ranging from cockles to cauliflower, and two sticks of Potong ice-cream (!).

We had our pet peeves, though. Ah Sir was whining about her jade arms getting scalded by the oil sputtering from the steamboat. Wee was looking for some non-existent honey wings. Kar Cheng tried to impress us by cooking some garlic chicken omelette with onions, but apparently, he wasn't really impressed with what he had concocted. I was disgusted when my plastic chopsticks started to melt while cooking, and felt so stupid when I realised wooden chopsticks were provided.

Me, Ah Sir, Fern and Wee

I just marvel at the way Kar Cheng can look so spastic

After the highly toxic meal of oil, plastics and carcinogens, Ah Sir, Wee and I went to East Coast to chill out. Despite his friends' tempting invitation to some 'dirty bar', poor Kar Cheng had to be by his gf's side instead. At Coffee Bean, we had coffee and a great chat near the sea.

Girly shots at Coffee Bean

Usual topics for discussion: travelling, bitch about our relatives (I wonder why we will never fail to mention Ah Kiat), compare our pets (Bobbi, cats and even luo han), and update each other about our other halves (accompanied with some kindly advice that will fall on deaf ears). Keke.
