11 yrs back...

Last Friday, having dine with my 4 sec sch frens at Suntec. We selected a vegetarian restaurant and ordered some food. After dine, the rating of the food there is poor. 1st, the creamy sauce from the spaghetti tasted horribly enough to make you throw out. Mine is simply juz a "fried" spaghetti and the curry baked rice is filled with many chilli padi instead of curry. This restaurant is black-listed for sure! Haha...

Then, we proceed to the Old Airport road hawker centre for desserts. We reached there by 10pm and left at 1am. It is really such a nice occasion to sit down together and recalled back all the good & bad happening during our sec sch days after 11 yrs...

"How our class having the worst reputation among all even though we are the 2nd best in the express class? How we get reprimanded and make to stand at the car park for almost half a day under the hot sun? How we are banned from opening our class window because of a water-melon skin? How we make our form teacher cried due to our mischievous? How Bon Jovi become our exam-inspired song during our exam period?...

Haha... Really appreciate the gathering and hope to have this regularly. Thanks, my fren :)

Cheapo Lobster!

This is my 2nd time patronised Toa Payoh for cheap and worth-spending food within a month. 1st with my colleagues, and now with my bro.

Well, this place is located near TPY Lor 4, a very old neighbourhood area and is not so easy to spot this restaurant among these. My bro said here is famous for their reasonable and affordable lobster meal, price ranges from S$15 to S$20. So I ordered a Lobster with Chicken set meal as recommended and waited for 15mins.

Here is my personal view for this set meal:
- Soup and garlic bread are served before the meal
Canned soup, diluted and tasteless :(
- Lobster with Chicken
Reasonable Lobster size, nice tender chicken :)
- Coffee and snack
Vending machine Nescafe coffee, acceptable almond Choco cake :l
Price: S$15.50 + S$2.80 (set meal) = S$18.30.

Verdict: This coffee shop sized restaurant is too small when the place is over-crowded during peak hours. Service is good and meal is affordable. Some of the negative point is the cheapo vending machine coffee and canned tasteless soup. Else, it will be perfect. My rating: 6.5/10.

Primary reunion...@ FaceBook

1996, that's the year i left my primary school 12 yrs ago. I have almost lost contact with all of my primary school mates. Even if i see them on a street, i may not recognise them now. Thanks and credits to the wonderful function and application of FaceBook, i managed to recall and reunite with them after such a long time. Especially those from my Class 3-2 in 1993, which stretched by to 15 yrs ago! One of my best pal, Alec actually make an effort to search high & low to tag and gather everyone back together. Thanks Alec!

Oh, btw, i havent introduce my school. It is Cedar Primary School.

enrolment blue :(

German Bundesliga Microstars Series 13:

After 8 mths long wait and S$400 spent, finally i got to know my result for my enrolment to NUS part-time course yesterday. Initially, i am looking forwards to the application result everyday. And once i finally received the result, i am more than happy to be enrolled into NUS. But here comes the dilemma, i have only 4 mths of freedom left! Oh, and i need to juggle between my work and studies for the next 3.5 yrs time... Haizzz, no doubt there will be a tough road ahead for me, i think i have to adjust and ready to take up the challenge... But let me enjoy my remaining 4 mths freedom 1st... :)
