something funny happened at jurong point today. while i was in the train at chinese garden station, he smsed me saying "OMG this is so screwed. meet at sweetalk later".so i bought the drinks and waited by the shop till he came. at first i didn't suspect anything. saw him as his normal self wearing berms and a t shirt. then while walking he said, "You know what, i forgot to bring the survey paper lah!" (ps we were suppossed to be doing canvassing at jurong point). i offered him some paper of mine and i realised "oh, you're wearinhg berms." so, just like that today's activity was cancelled.

anyway, the evening was not wasted. first he wanted to get this hardcore file. i wasn't sure what he meant at first. after much description, i realised he meant the folder thingy with fasteners on the side. its like a plastic tupperware book where you'll have to open it and place your loose sheets of papers into it. it was like an amazing race thingy to look for the hardcore file. we first went to Harris, then to this crappy shop called Japan Home (i think). both of them did not carry it. we decided to go to the Fairprice Extra to look for it but before we could find the supermarket, we stumbled upon .... jeng jeng jeng!! POPULAR!! we went inside and started our manhunt. it was so difficult lah to find that god foresaken folder thing. and finally, he found it! yay! finally! but the queue for the cashier's was like a queue for a major bank. it snaked all the way to the back of the cashier's lah! it was terribly hardcore!! hahaha!

anyway, after paying for the stuff, we headed to find this shop called Spectacle Hut. Jurong Point was a total nightmare for Jurong Novices like us. it snakes round and round and round! its really terrible! we combed the basement first. the entire basement! then we headed to the ground floor and and searched again. the entire level lah! then we headed to the second level and we were about to go up to the third level when kenneth spotted this small opening to the side of the mall. we walked there and voila! there was spectacle hut! but right at the end of the wing. i mean really,really far in.

in the shop, we went around looking for glasses. he needed a change of glasses badly and i am just bored with my current pair. i found this really cute pair! its plastic and full framed. looked really like those korean stars are currently wearing. but the bad thing is the frame costs $200 plus. that means with the lenses, they would have costed like $280 for me. that's a little too expensive for me. nbut i love the frames to bits! they look really cool!! i think i'll look for a similar pair somewhere cheaper... oh anyway kenneth found two frames that he liked, but thewould have costed like $170 after discount AND the $40 voucher. that's like super pricey lah. some more the frames weren't that fantastic; i prefered his old frames to the new ones he selected. we didn't buy anything from the shop eventually.

after the spectacle debacle, we decided to head out to eat. i decided on kopitiam. but when we reached the second floor, guess what? IT WAS CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS LAH!! craps of the world!! so we decided to go to this makan place called Feast on the third floor. its like a makan place filled with mid priced stalls. they have a korean restaurant, ajisen ramen and an indonesian restaurant there. we first stopped by the indonesian restaurant. we decided to look at the dishes first and i remarked,"The dishes looked scary." by that i meant the dishes looked rather spicy. we then moved on to the korean restaurant. the girl by the door kept talking to me in chinese. i just ignored her, thinking kenneth was listening to her. she continued to talk to me and i kept ignoring her, still thinking kenneth is listening to her. we eventually decided to not eat at all as i was not feeling that hungry and i can probably tahan till i reach home. while walking out, kenneth gave me a pep talk saying i was rude to them just now and that i should check myself before i do anything to embarrass them. he also said something of retribution, which i happen to sooo believe in now!! i feel so bad after all that!!

TO THE KOREAN RESTAURANT GIRL AND THE INDONESIAN RESTAURANT GUY AT FEAST AT JURONG POINT, I'M SORRY I WAS RUDE TO YOU! i did not mean to be rude but i was unaware that what i said may unintentionally hurt your feelings. i'm truely and deeply sorry for whatever i have said to you and i promise to not be as loud in the future as how i am now.

guess that's all for tonight. going to watch some Nodame Cantabile now. ciao ciao!!
