Wild Rocket @ Mt Emily


This afternoon, Kinetic bought us lunch at Wild Rocket@ Hangout Hotel at Mount Emily.

The place was quite cosy. The food was quite nice : ) There's this scooter parked outside against the fence with a woven basket at the back (instead of the plastic box). On the side of the scooter was a sticker from the Initial D movie that read "藤原Tofu". So kawaii!!!!

I ordered the set meal which consisted of an appetiser, a main course, a dessert & a coffee/tea. It costs S$26 but since we requested to change the menu, there's a minimal charge to it. I ordered the Linguini Aglio Olio with Tiger Prawns for main course, and the soft-shell crab with thai chilli sauce for starters. The dessert was quite interesting - "Atapchee Ice-cream". The lunch was really filling!!!

I thought the ambience was quite nice. But we were a bit lost when we went there, but there were lots of backpackers (ang mohs especially) who were staying at the hangout hotels. Looks like a nice environment though! The surroundings were all private apartments!!!! Anyway, it was really near to Paradiz Centre. We walked down from the restaurant to Paradiz Centre to catch a cab back to the office.

Yeah!!! That "kiam pa face" resigned... There would be a reshuffling of accounts. Sian liao lor...

I'm looking forward to days without that irritating woman :P

Over The Hedge



Watched the Premiere for "OVER THE HEDGE" yesterday evening with Wallis and happened to bump into that "Kiam Pa Face" at the lift lobby. She was with a man, and she was trying very hard to tell us that the guy was her bf, or very interested in her... YAWNZZZZ... I think she should look at her reflection in the mirror more often :P

The movie was hilarious. I liked Hammy the Squirrel & Verne the Turtle. The farniest part was when the turtle's shell came off when he tried to save Hammy from these brownies who went around selling biscuits. When they saw the naked turtle in front of their eyes, they thought it was disgusting!!! It looked kinda farnie in the animation to see Verne covered his head in his hands, with his bare skin, showing only his BUM...

It was also pretty cute in the front when they saw the hedge and tried to decipher what it was. Hammy decided to name it "Steve" just because it sounded nice. Haha... and they started calling the hedge "Steve"! RJ, the Raccoon, being like the "town mouse" enlightened them, but he had an ulterior motive.... but I knew he wouldn't let the 'family' down in the end!

That was really some 'no brainer' for me to feel more relaxed due to the hectic schedule I had for this week....

More to come for next week since we've already scheduled a meeting with the client at 11am n Tuesday... DAMN!!! That means OT on Monday! SHUCKS!!! I will miss the SUper Band performance again!!! I really Hope & Pray that "Xia Ri Feng" gets out SOON!!!

Long weekend...

11th May - Went to watch Mission Impossible III with sis-in-law at Great World City. The show was okay... predictable but action-packed! After that had dinner at Kenny Rogers! Its been so long since I've last had a meal at Kenny Rogers... Missed their Kenny's Quarters! Slurp... ... It rained while we were waiting for 518 from Tangs Bus stop. Met Aunty Susan & her colleague. They went to Mount E to visit a colleague. There was this irritating man who thought he was very well-educated trying to read his copy of "Shin Min Daily News" while standing on the bus. I pity the poor man who was seated in front of him cos his life is at risk - the papers may poke his eyes or cut his face any moment. The man standing won't budge and lowered his paper throughout the journey. Sigh... how inconsiderate behaviour displayed on the bus! Ugly Singaporean!

12th May - Vesak Day. Didn't go temple to pray. Went to help brother at his stall. Business was quite slow since everyone is turning 'vegetarian' on this big day. Saw a few kittens when I went around collecting the plates. This grey kitty was all BONES!! sob sob.... Bro had some rubbish which consisted of rice and some gravy and chicken bones. I volunteered to go to the garbage collection area situated at the back of the wet market, cos I wanted to try to feed the poor kittens. To my dismay, the kitten ran away from me, and when I put the food in front of him, he didn't stop to eat but hid in a corner... well... I didn't want to be jailed or fined for littering, so I threw the rubbish to where it belonged. When I told my brother, he told me cats DO NOT EAT CURRY!!!! ok ok .... it was my oversight... I should prepare a bowl of water for it the next time.

13th May - Books were due. Went to the library to return my books with my 3 nieces & sis-in-law. Borrowed another 4 books on Tokyo & Hokkaido : ) I am really looking forward to my trip. I badly needed a break. Slept around 4am+ cos I had some unfinished work. Helped at bro's stall from 3:30pm to almost 2am! Wallis & Don went to watch the recording of "Super Band". Stupid “夏日风" got 19 marks from the 4 judges in total!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! They FAILED!!!! They are such a stupid band!! Ahem.... they can't be considered a band in the first place. Can't sing, can't dance! Yucks!!!!!! Dun even know how they landed a place in the competition in the first place! Hope they get OUT!!!! and dun make a comeback in the revival round!!!!

14th May - Supposed to attend Gek's wedding, but had to change plans last minute. Firstly, not feeling well liao..... secondly, sis-in-law bringing a cake to my bro's place in the evening for Mother's Day (though we had an early one on 1st May). The cake from Bengawan Solo was quite nice - in the shape of a heart - and its strawberry flavoured. Yummy!!! After that we had BBQ chicken wings, and waffles with ice-cream!! Stupid Daryl made a scene when it was time to go back. He wanted to wait for my second sis-in-law and he was there crying. Brother had to carry him to the main road so that I can send them home in a cab. He kept crying in the cab. Had it not for my elder sis-in-law who forcibly carried him into the cab, he would have stayed glued to the ground, crying and making a scene. He was really an annoying child!! ARGH!!! Luckily Xavier was the good boy today. If 2 of them made a scene together, I think I would kick them out of the taxi!!! ARGHHH!!!!

Another 22mins to 15th May. Time really flies...... Xueling would be heading to New Zealand soon : ) Hope she had an enjoyable time there, and when she returns, we'll be sabotaging her on her birthday!! ho ho ho ho ho
