SHOPPING with Donna

Today was shopping day~! Met up with Donna at around 11am and proceeded to our first stop...Far East Plaza. Reached there at about 12 plus and shockingly, most shops on level 1 were still closed. Still on holiday? Unlike the rowdy Far East Plaza that I hate, Far East Plaza was surprisingly quiet today. Didnt have to say a single 'Excuse me please' at all today. So happy that there were no crowds at all! Hehe. Walked a few rounds around level 1 but didnt buy anything at all. Cannot make it! What kind of shopping is this? Since we were both hungry, we decided to have lunch first before starting to prowl the shops again.


Ate at SU Korean Restaurant.


Was flipping through the menu to see what to eat when we came across this dish called BBQ Chicken Gizzard. However, the Chinese name for that dish was 'kao ya shen', which basically means BBQ Duck Kidney. So...is the dish chicken or duck? Or a mixture of two? Hmmm.


To solve the mystery, Donna ordered the the non-BBQ version of it. Determined that it was chicken after eating it. Okay, I lied, we are not that good at tasting what kind of meat that was. We cheated by asking the waitress...who seemed confused as well.


Love Korean restaurants because you can basically get full just by eating the side dishes only. The kimchi was a tad too spicy for my liking. Loved the rest though.


Ordered the set lunch version of ddeokboki. The amount of ingredients was a little pathetic. No fishcake, one miserable piece of meat and lots of ddeok. Maybe because it was cheaper than the non-set-lunch version? So they had to cut back on the ingredients? Nevertheless, this dish was good.


Ordered Korean Seafood Pancake as well. Damn crispy and tasty...although not much ingredients were in it.

Nearing to the end of lunch, I saw Li Ming and her mom enter the restaurant. Tried to call her but she didnt pick up her phone. :( Anyway, after lunch, we went to Wisma to SHOP. After what seemed like eternity of trying on clothes, I finally bought myself new garb! So happy although it wasnt that cheap...and I used my own money somemore. Went to Topshop to look at clothes too but didnt get anything there. Saw this freaking long by Kate Moss dress that was seriously taller than Donna and me. Discrimination against short people lo...the dress. :( Next up was Dorothy Perkins and I bought something there again! On the verge of going broke le...who wants to support me? Hehe.

Walked a little more and because my puny brain told me to wear heels today, my legs were aching like mad. Couldnt tahan it anymore and hence, went to buy a pair of nice slippers. Wanted to change into slippers in the toilet but was too tired and lazy to walk to the toilet so I just changed my shoes...right infront of some Takashimaya office. Wonder if the CCTV caught me changing shoes or not? So paiseh!


Took a rest at Royal Copenhagen.


Donna's Roasted Mushroom Soup.


I asked the lady what kind of cakes she had and she replied to me that I have to go the front counter to see for myself. As I was seated like miles away from the front counter and my legs were wobbly from all that walking, I pleaded with her to just name me a few and I just chose the one that she mentioned first. Got laughed at by her but whatever la, I am that lazy. Haha. Delicious blueberry cheesecake.


Royal Copenhagen Iced Tea. The waitress asked me if I wanted sweetener and I replied no. She has this look of disbelief and asked me another time. My response was negative. Sorry lo, not everyone adds sweetener to their tea. I like the original taste of the tea. Am I weird? Hmmm.

Went to Push and Bear to shop for Donna's top and Donna made her first purchase of the day there! I also saw the first eye-candy of the day there too! So happy~ Went to Gramophone(dont know how to spell the CD shop's name) to look at CDs. Sat down to rest inside and decided to take photos together. Something that we've never done before...according to Donna.


Take 1. FAIL. Too far apart.


Take 2. Much better. :D

Next up was HMV. Some teenager was listening to the songs on display there via headphones and she was singing out loud at the same time!!! OMG, never knew that people actually did that. Worse still, she was totally out of tune and we had no idea what she was singing. While singing, she was looking around to see if anyone was admiring her beautiful vocals. OMG...made me laugh like mad. Someone please hand her a Singapore Idol application form. She's our answer to America's William Hung. :D


Walked around Hereen after leaving HMV and decided to take neoprints. Eh...there was like only a few people there lo! Normally I would have to queue up to take neoprints but there was not a single queue there today. In addition to that, lots of shops around the neoprint shop are no longer in business. Man, I really have not been to Hereen in like AGES. Didnt even know they had a little walkway leading to the neoprint shop.


Freaking empty. Orchard area was freaking empty today. Even Lot 1 had more crowd. WTF?!

Okay, now onto the neoprints that we took.


Like the background alot.


Shit...my hair was messy.


Aaaah!!! Save us~! -_-


A bit out of season though...haha


Peace peace~


Hanabi~!

Edit: Eh Donna, we took a photo together before can. On the day of Baccalaurete Service in ACJC. Remember this? :D
