是你让我活在梦幻里

warning: this is going to be a damn long post.

hi!another week passed again. :)
had been really busy as usual.

we went out to celebrate sipei and my birthday yesterday!
i suggested that we eat 麻辣火锅, hotpot.
cos i really missed eating hotpot,ever since the Taiwan trip.
but well,i realised it isn't a good idea after all.haha.
and my conclusion is: there is no other hotpot that is better than taiwan's. (at least in Singapore)

but it wasn't that bad cos when we sit down and eat together,we don't really care much bout the food.
but anyway the hotpot was only supposed to cost 17.80 nett,no service charge,GST and whatever.(you go there and you will understand why there's no service charge)
BUT.
we got cheated!!
the sign outside says: FREE FLOW OF DRINKS.
we we happily took the can drinks from the frige thinking it is FREE.
only to realise after the end of everything that,
IT IS NOT FREE.
AND ONE CAN COSTS 2 DOLLARS.crazy.

but anyway,that hotpot restaurant is supposed to be very famous,and the feedback is very good.
so i thought we just go and try it,and its cheap actually,IF,we didn't have to pay for the drinks.
but in the end i was quite disappointed,maybe because i have too high expectations after i tried the one in Taiwan.
i swear it's the best.
this one,(it's opened by china people btw),contains nothing but CHILI OIL.omg.
AND,the seafood is not fresh.

oh and for the first time in my life,i saw LIVE CLAMS MOVING.omg.
it is so scary and disgusting,but cute at the same time.lol.
i didn't know clams can move!!!
we were so amazed.haha.

but despite all this,we were quite satisfied cos at least we were really really full.
and i think the amount we ate is worth the money. :D
after that we went to orchard,i was supposed to meet my sis to get my birthday present.
and we wanted to walk around to digest our food,cos we are really bloated.
we went to cinneleisure to take neoprints first.
and then i went off to meet my sis,and they went their own ways.
i walked to plaza singapura,and i never realised that it is quite far!
(no wonder it's one MRT station away)
so by the time i reached plaza singapura i was quite tired.
and my sis told me,that the (stupid) shop closes at 7pm. (really stupid)
we were going to get the shirt that zaizai wore in the show,(i mentioned his,the one with heart shape),comme des garcons.
the damn shop,opens only from 12-7 pm,from mon-sat.
when i reached plaza it was about 6.20pm.
we had to find the shop cos we had never been there before,and we don't know that place.
AND,IT'S REALLY ULU.
my sis said this brand(japanese brand)is special,they only have 2 shops if i'm not wrong,in Singapore,and they purposely open their shops in very weird/quiet places in Singapore cos they wanna be different. and they shift to another location every year.
so you really have to FIND the shop.
and,they don't have a NORMAL signboard which has the name of the shop,so it's not as if it's easy to spot.
that stupid place,11 Mount Sophia road,is actually JUST BEHIND plaza singapura,but there's no through road directly from plaza to there,cos there's stupid condo in between.
SO,we had to walk ONE BIG ROUND to get to that place.
and we got LOST cos it's just so complicated and that damn place is RIGHT INSIDE!
so we walked and walked and walked...
it was 6.55 PM...
we reached that place,half dead.
AND
IT WAS CLOSED ALREADY.
damn it.
THE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON AND THERE WERE PEOPLE INSIDE BUT THE DOOR IS LOCKED ALREADY.
i knocked,but they ignored me!!!T.T

THEY CLOSED EARLY OKAY.

at this point of time a bunch of bengs came too,and they looked at the locked door,tried to open it with force(stupid,it's LOCKED),and scolded: wah lau,asshole la,close liao loh.
-.-
their fashion sense is,omg.

so we walked all the way down again,back to plaza singapura to eat dinner.
we ate at ice monster(the ice dessert shop from Taiwan).
the ice was..omg.heavenly.(esp since we were exhausted)
and then i was happy again!

in the end we didn't manage to get that damn shirt.
i'm meeting my sis tmr after sch to get it.and my cake too! :D
my sis took leave specially for me.cos my parents won't be home to celebrate with me.

now..photos!
there will be more coming up. :)
