Its weekend again!

Why does the weekend always passes by so fast and gone in a flash?? Weekdays seems torturously long and never ending... Anyway, had a good weekend with Web and hope it will be a motivation for a draggy week ahead..

Friday
Went Tiong Bahru market for dinner...and had wanted to have few yummy dishes like fried carrot cake, bbq chix wings, char kway teow, hor fun, satay bee hoon etc. Was telling Xris what I had planned to eat and making her so jealous!! Hahaa...well this is the price to pay for when you want to lose weight. You lose a lot of goodies too!! Of coz eating such food not so healthy but once in a while is ok la, they open up your appetities!!

Well, we eventually din manage to savour all the good food. The zhi cha stall was overwhelmed with 40 over packets of takeaway orders and no one bothers to take any orders. We decided to give it a miss and try next time. Ordered fried carrot cake but it does not taste as good as it looks (on our last trip there). The chix wings were so dry and looked like they have been re-bbq again and again since morning. Naturally they dun taste good as well, kind of dry and meatless. We ordered fish ball soup from one teochew fishball stall and they were great! So long never tasted anything like that (nowadays fishballs are all machine made). We settled for chix porridge as the last dish and were so full after that.

Took a bus to Orchard after dinner, walked and hang around till Taka close at 10pm.

Saturday
Din know where to go, so settled again for East Coast. Its going to be our new homeground! The weather was extremely hot and when we met at YCK mrt stn, was surprised Web bought me siew mai from a pasar malam near his house. So touched he remembered I love those siew mais!

Waited for bus service 76 for quite a while and disappointed that its a single deck bus. The aircon was damn uncool and after turning around in AMK for like 20 odd mins, we finally reached Upper Paya Lebar Rd. We were almost roasted by this time and the rest of the journey was a torture! Suggested to Web that we go Parkway Parade 1st as its so hot and we need some aircon 1st instead of going straight to the beach. After some drinks and rest at PP, we walked slowly to the beach through the underpass behind the old Marine Parade Library. Of coz dropping by the relocated NTUC to get some drinks (2 cans of beer and one big bottle of mineral water). Bumped into one of my colleagues and said hi to her...she was bz doing marketing with her 2 daughters.

We managed to find a shaded seat facing the beach and settled down to eat, chat and drink. In less than 30 mins, we finished about half bottle of the 1st beer and both our faces have gone red. Web had a good laugh at me coz he said seldom see me this way. We played some bo liao games and finished most of the beer. We bought Baron this time and dun taste as good as some others. As we din buy chilled ones, I reached a stage that I simply cannot drink anymore (will puke coz tasted more horrible by the minute).

It almost around 8pm while we slowly made our way for dinner. Had intended to have Fish & Co. for dinner but decided we were too full from the beers. So just went to have Yoshinoya and we both felt sleepy during dinner, probably of the alcohol.

Took bus 76 back to AMK and by the time we reached, we were almost worn out.

Sunday
We din proceed our usual plans 2day coz was thinking not so convenient to go swim (coz of AV), we went to KTV instead. Went to the branch at Paradiz but disappointed that the sound system was crap. They used some system "BIK" instead of the famous "BMB". The whole singing session was enjoyable except for the sound quality.

Went back to Marina Sq and ate at Changing Appetites. The food was good, except some portions were miserably small (esp the grilled dory fish). We even got ourselves free membership cards (as they were on promo, no more special terms to apply for the card). It was anyway just a cardboard card and 10% discount from the next visit onwards.

Its working day again tomorrow thus we din stay long, left after dinner and took mrt home...
