Pig-out at Taka Crystal Jade and Marche's
After spending time in Little India, where the Indian food reigns, Giz, Geordie and myself proceeded to Tang's (in front of Mac's makeup) to meet the company. Honestly, I din know that Mac's was a brand of makeup! I was wondering if I had read wrongly about MacDonald's or something! Hee. When I first saw Shutch, I went "there is no dustbin here", cos i did threaten to carry her off to a bin when she was suan-ing me in the morning when she was high on her coffee. Heh. But she gave me Vitamin-C sweet (grapefruit flavour) to continue suan-ing me... but I tell ya, it's one of the best sweets I've tasted! And one of the rare sweets which I will achery consider buying! Thanks Shutch! (Though Giz still thinks they are cough droplets! Heh. But then again, she thought axe oil was chewing gum!! Hahaha! Ultimate...
We walked to the shop where Shutch bought lip balm/gloss. Hmmm... a place which I wouldn't even think of entering myself! Heh. And then walked one round at the basement of Far East Plaza, then to Duty free. The puppet ducks there are really cute sia! Their beaks go quack when u squeeze them and there's an Old MacDonald's tune to it! Heh. And Giz went squeezing all the mouths of the monkeys which screamed/shrieked! Hahaha! That was funny! =) Then we proceeded to Taka where Art Friend is. Oh my... the true colours of the company was appalling! They wanted to superglue me and bluff me that UHU glue was lip balm. Not only that, they looked for tape so as to tape me up when i am in NY and stuff. Why?!! Hmmm. Anyway, we entertained ourselves with stuff toys...

I seriously think Shutch is photogenic. What say you all?!!
We went to Crystal Jade for dinner. Giz ordered cold noodles... hmm, something which we wouldn't order in a Chinese restaurant, but it was not bad though. Papa Ken din like it though. Heh.
Xiao long baos and vegetable dumplings (YUMMY!!!)


Then to the toilet cos I really needed to pee (before Papa Ken presses the bladder!). And guess what we did in the toilet?


Interesting huh? Hahaha! Toilets are good fun. Wish there were bubbles and water splashing though!
Oh, then to dessert. Swensen's was crowded so Pengy jiejie and Papa Ken went to check out NYDC at HMV. It was faster, so we decided to rush over there instead, under the torrential rain. At least G&G managed to experience the rain before they left! Heh. But cos NYDC is open-air, they were forced to shut down certain areas, so we decided to go to Marche's instead. It's amazing how God works, cos G&G have already tried Swensen's and NYDC... not Marche's. And they did love it. Hee. And I got to eat my banana waffle too! Heh. *satisfied grin* I will choose it over guilin gao, yes. =)


And our Shutch's doing... Hee. Not only do we need to bubble-wrap her up, we need to give her a bib, and fork and spoon. Heh.

We entertained ourselves again by playing with coins... soccer to spinning them with one hand to balancing them. And when Giz tried to balance the salt shaker on salt and I kept blowing the salt away... they ganged up on me! Why?!! Cos Giz is nicer? Heh she is actually. =)
Here's the struggle. I never felt weak amongst my Singaporean counterparts before, but with Geordie and Giz, I really feel weak. Heh. But I din give up the struggle! All the way!! =)

And this is YP in Marche's. Heh.

It was a wonderful time all in all. Next time must take more pics of Papa Ken. The auntie at Crystal Jade said he "shuai" leh! She must have been long-sighted. =) Anyway, thank you company, from the bottom of my heart, for entertaining my friends. They really like you all and I cannot express how glad I am that it all worked out so well. Heh. You all really made their stay here more pleasant, though they had to put up with me lah! Hehe. And seeing you all and playing and just hanging out perks me up. =)

It's our pleasure actually. We don't want you gals to experience just the 'touristy' aspects and miss out on the real 'heartlanders' experience (you can ask daffy what that term means).
Will miss your meatloaf for sure!

Just realised that meeting new people and myself talking about some redundant/useless facts about whatever has made me self-check whatever I say.
Why the heck am I full of useless info?
