Birthday lunch with the family & Pre-Xmas lunch with the good ol' people from Scoopz

Just decided that this year i will have a really toned-down/private/quiet day on my own for my birthday after a very hyped up rah-rah 21st bday last year. Since Huimin says that all my blog posts has been about Feng Tianwei, this blog will have NOTHING on her..other than this mini-mention..haha

Was still thinking where to go for a meal on Sunday as i was supposed to work from 10-4..but since Ah Gui has recovered from chickenpox, we all decided i shouldn't be that hard on myself and work on my birthday. Initially when there was really no choice but to have me cover half a day, it was nice to hear boss telling Shiau Yun that my birthday is bigger than her, so she has to work..haha, but i guess it all worked out in the end.

Thought of either Dim Sum buffet at Marina Mandarin, Jack's Place..and Sis suggested Tony Roma's @ Suntec City since they serve really good ribs, since it was my birthday it was her treat..although it came with unwilling mumbles that me and my dad won money at 4D..haha

Afterwhich we went shopping for a bit at OG, my dad finally bought himself some new shirts he can wear for CNY haha, sounds pathetic right, but it's only cos he dun wanna spend money on stuff like that..but he is willing to spend on 4D on TOTO..lolz, went for dessert at Liang Seah Street, some place called Ji De Chi (Remember to Eat), the desserts ain't fantastic, service not worth mentioning, they told us that it'll take about a 20 minutes wait for the durian pastry thing but in the end it took more than half an hr which i had to push back my meeting with Sharon after that, and when the dumb pastry finally came, it tasted kinda yucky!!..ARGH!!.no more patronage from me to this place man..NO MORE NO MORE!!!!!

Reached home at bout 6.50pm, had a quick shower and off to meet Sharon @ Tampines Mall, was still a bit full from the heavy lunch so we settled for something less fanciful at Pastamania which was dear Sharon's treat..hee, and then she bought me a nalgene bottle since i lost mine back in Brisbane, yesh..the green bottle that mysteriously disappeared when i brought it down from the house to the car to leave on our roadtrip..after that we went shopping around the atrium area as they had lots of stuff that were pretty cheap, so thought i'd get a little something for the folks back in Brisbane, wad was supposed to be a little something turned out to be quite alot, THAT'S IT!! i can't go shopping with Sharon..lolz

Went down to Parkway on Monday to send the package over to Australia, turned out the package became a PARCEL..haha, sent it on express too..hopefully it'll reach them in time for Xmas. Headed down to TP in the evening for training, they had alot of people there so i could only sit at the sides to wait for someone to be free to have a hit with me, thankfully i had with my my phone..MY ENTERTAINMENT!!..lolz..shall not mention wad i watched..although i think most of u will know..HAHA!!

TODAY!!!
Met Gui, Rui Caiwen & Leng Sie @ Raffles City for lunch, had Shokudo, really funny cos Sharon was just telling me about this place on Sunday and there i was today, really fun experience dining there since i've not been to Marche. But this dining experience is costly, my card swiped 30 over bucks!!!..Was supposed to bring my dad's Tag Huer to Raffles City office tower to fix the chain but i forgot the bring it out with me, so yea, he was pretty pissed with me for that. I need more exercise, gotta get my lazy butt to go swim!!! Rui said i put on weight today..AH!!!!..CNY's coming!! And the bet thingy that i have going on with Steven Gor Gor..ARGH!!!

Some gadget charger thing i encountered at the Budget terminal, which i find was quite cool..cos it's free!!haha
