Okie. I know its been 'decades' since i've posted something.
well, not that im very Busy until i cant spare a few mins on the computer,
but i was kinda lazy to upload the photos and my lap top got some probs.
This is going to be a long one cox im pouring everything that I've done for 2 weeks.


okays enough of excuses, lets get down to the post.


2 weekends ago i hosted A very nice Polish guy, Marcin.
for a night at my study room!
haha.
He's a engineer and is here in singapore for 2 nights before he leaves for New Zealand to climb the Mountains. whoa. Mountains. okay... tough guy.


Here's what we did while Marcin was here.

SAT
630pm : Picked him up Changi Airport and head to my place to down his huge baggage.
830pm : Cabbed down to Army Market with Jaslin hoping to have waffles.
900pm : *many stores were closed, but i discovered something new about Army Market, there's very good Malay 'Ze Char' stores just below! apart from the bloody redish 'tulang' that's the market is famous for, the ze char is also very value for $!
Here's what we ordered; stingray($14 medium size with 3 rather big pieces!), seafood tofu, Oyster Omelette or 'Or Jian', and Satay! and I would say what we paid is definitely cheaper than the touristy Glutton's Bay. Plus, its Army Market is 100% neighbourhood local food.
1000pm : We are not done yet! guess wat? Fellow nice CSer Leong Woon picked us up at the market and we head to Geyland for Durian! Talking about 'Sweets' for a treat man, haha I could'nt let Marcin go without trying this absolutely mind blowing 'King of Fruits' can I? haha. But being the adventurous traveler, Marcin ate 3 in one go! that he claims : "Not exactly his favourite, but it was 'INTERESTING'"... hmm haha well at least he's the 1 out of 10 foreigners who can 'Tahan' Durian.
1100pm : The nights still young and we drove to Clarke Quey's Cafe Iguna. Polish can really hold their alcohol! Taught Marcin how to play 'finger guessing game' or 'Cai Quan' and loser drinks up. I was okay, and managed only a mug. That's my max. I dun usually drink beer unless its for friends/occasions.
130om : Marcin and me took the mid night bus straight to my house to crush. haha. What a Night!




"It not over and the Night just gets better..."


SUN
700pm : Met Jaslin and went to Little India. On a Sunday? Yesh, some of you guys will be like? HUH?!! Do you have idea its a weekend and you are in Little India??! the only 'White' among them? okay no racist remarks here, but truefully speaking, I have never been there on a weekend or even any weekend because its just not my culture and I would look kinda 'outstanding' too..
730pm : But but but, anways, we're there to meet Marcin and her friend Monika, both polish, at a Indian Restaurant for dinner. It Marcin's way for treating us for being his host. aww... And after being pushed by the crowds along the narrow streets of Little India, and breathe in the heavy curry pungent air,I was actually quite surprised that I liked the food and getting to appreciate their culture. Monika told me that they are nothing to be scared of because they are humans too, just like us, and they are actually harmless and friendly bunch of people in a foreign land. *It kinda made me feel ashame to think that I used to 'escape' from them as well...* Its a lesson learnt i guess.. =]
1000pm : Headed to Crazy elephant at Clarke Quey *Again* which monika insisted that we should'nt miss this opportunity of spending time together. haha. and had some drinks again. of cox, 'Cai quan' started... with great music band playing..
1230am: .....Cab back.. cox i gotta work in the morning...! yawns.




Rest of the week, was spent clearing leave, its my last few days with F1 and Ngee Ann. And teaching shah the ropes of working at NP Gym.


I met Old Buddy 'Caveman' Eric! to have brunch at Arab Street.
this new outlet which i explored is called 'B Bakery'
check it out in hungrygowhere.com
their sandwiches are made from real food!
as in, their beef sandwich is served with the beef steak (*not patty) on the bread with grilled vegetables on top! whoa.. my chicken sandwich was great as well..
the atmosphere was very laid back and service pleseant.

A must try is their sandwich and their chocolate fudge and sticky date pudding!
their latte is nice as well!!
A bit hard to find though, tuck behind arab street,
its at behind Kampong cafe. Recommended to go try out this eatery on a laid back weekday afternoon. B Bakery.

Afterwards, we caught 'August Rush' at Lido.
A bit slow but but but, music was fantastic. =] story was extraordinary as well.
and a few days later, Eric gave me a surprise and drop a parcel of the soundtrack posted to my house. haha! wei Eric, thanks for the gift!




... i think tat's for now... cant think of anymore to write..
getting quite slack nowadays.. haha..
Later....
