on friday, i told myself that i will start on my Buyer Behaviour project on sunday. time check : Sunday 4pm. amount of project done: 2% damn it! i spent my entire afternoon editing photos. all 46 of them!! yet again it's another birthday entry. are you guys like sick of it yet? haha!! anyway, this time around is cecilia's birthday. i met up with fang earlier in the afternoon to shop for her present. and we paid a visit to qiuyan who set up a stall at the Lime Flea Market at youthpark.  qiuyan, fang and me. we decided to take little look around the flea market. the whole place was like sweltering ground for online shops. if you're a big fan of online shopping, then you should head down here. bring a fan though, it gets a little warm after like 2minutes. the sad thing though was that there was totally nothing for guys. i mean apart from the girls, none of the booth had anything for guys to look at. unless of course, you're into Hello Kitty hairpins. finally found something for Cecilia and we headed down to Marina Square to meet her for dinner. i'm a big fan of japanese food. places i usually frequent would be Sushi Tei and Waraku. the food at this places rocks way better than Sakae Sushi. Sakae Sushi is like for peasants y'all. i dont even understand why people eat the crap they sell at sakae. so we headed down to one of my favourite jap restaurant, Waraku.    fang, cecilia, me and sheryl.  some photos while waiting for the food to arrive. lo and behold the definition of scrumptious..  chawanmushi.  agadeshi tofu.  tori karaage.  potato and cheese. that was appetizers. and now to the main course.  curry katsu rice.  curry katsu udon.  cheese cream scallop udon.  unagi & egg rice bento. the serving is like fucking HUGE.  i could have like steamed my face over a bowl of cheese cream scallop udon. Overall Rating of Waraku, Marina Square. 8.5/10 the Waraku at clark quay still ranks tops for me. my cheese cream udon here was slightly watery but apart from that everything else was scrumptious. the service was really nice and friendly and the staff always seem to have a smile when you asked them something. expect to pay somewhere around $25 onwards per person for dinner. the reasonable price paired with the really good food makes this place a must-go. waraku is also famous for their long queues. so if i dont feel like waiting 40minutes for the one in clark quay, i could always hop to this outlet for a 20minute queue instead. Waraku is a must-go for all japanese food fans.  after that really heavy dinner, decided to take a little walk to ease the digestion. and you know what else eases digestion. camwhoring!  lets get started! i call this photospread: Contradictions   flash & no flash.   close & open.   love & emo.   far & near.   over & under.   bright & dark. of course, the ritual of taking solo photos with the birthday girl.    decided to head down to the nearest Coffee Club for some caffeine fix.  i havent been to Coffee Club in ages. i'm more of a starbucks person. but the outlet here looks tres chic. couldn't resist getting something so we ordered....  earl grey latte with vanilla ice cream for cecilia.  tropical mocha for me.  hazelnut latte for fang.  mango smoothie for sheryl. Overall Rating of Coffee Club, Millenia Walk. 7.5/10 the coffee club is more of a place to chill rather than a place for coffee. there was actually quite a number of choices for ice blends instead. the service there was really friendly as well as they helped us along with the suprise. drinks cost around $8 but it wasn't that fantastic for such a price. there wasn't much choices for desserts either. so if you're looking for a place with a nice ambience to chill, and you're more of an ice blend person instead of a true coffee lover, this is the place for you. so we just sat there chatting bout random stuff when suddenly.....   the waiter came with our suprise!!!  check out cecilia's suprised face!  a group pic with the cake and presents!   making a wish. we made her a card as well, along with the present.    miniature us. so we just chilled until the place closed and decided to call it a night.  la bella vita : the beautiful life. loves, ali joe  a pictorial entry coming soon! loves, ali joe it used to be "wow, this bag looks nice! i wonder if it'll match my wardrobe", everytime i go shopping. but now, it has become "wow, this bag looks nice! maybe i'll buy it next time. better rush home now, still got 5000 more words to type about the positioning of RIM BlackBerry in the prosummers' market" school has officially taken over my life. and with now being the project submission season, even meeting friends for dinner is difficult.  so thank god at least my projectmates are nice.   see how hard james and weiliang are working.    3 down, 1 more submission to go. loves, ali joe |
