my god! this is the last straw! my second time typing out this post~ ok.. speed writing again! i published this post but it ended up blank... cranky computer.
today i had to meet my parents to go for lunch... and with my dilly dallying mood, i was almost late for the meeting, didn't want to get nagged at for wasting my mum's precious time especially when her lunchtime was only one hour.
so after agreeement, we went to cafe c...... at cineleisure. i must say... i LOVE their service there. we spent a few minutes sitting there and no one bothered to tell us that the ordering was to be made at the counter. then when we had to make our order, the waiter asked from the counter to my mum what were the choice of drinks without offering to tell her the array of drinks offered over there... GREAT service rendered right?
we waited for donkey years while munching on the free flow of bread (but the bread comes out in such small amounts and at such a slow speed that i could feel that those waiting to get their bread were also frustrated too...) and finally, soup was up when we munched down our bread.. nothing to go with the soup already.. and the cutlery were so NICELY polished with soap stains.. goodness gracious, i almost fainted.
by the time the main course finally was up, i was actually half full and the pathetic salmon was lying on the huge plate calling out for me to eat it... but i must say i LOVE the management for providing us space on the plate to play with our food while waiting for the dessert to be up. we finished our stuff although i did not finish my ice cream but anyway, i will not get fat so its still okay and it was in ang mo kio again.
i was actually late for a baking class and i went up to the upper deck and all eyes was on me, the only teenager amongst the matured ladies. but the baker looks decent enough so i sat there quietly and took notes while the baking class continued. and i think i liked the st horne cinnamon roll the most. can try baking it when i have the time.
when the class was almost ending soon, i was indulging in the sweet aroma emitted and all the ladies were mostly at the front taking pictures with cameras or phones while i was still sitting there. then, it was the sampling time. most of them are so experienced that they brought out their hidden weapon: the formidable tupperware! to keep the tiny food samples... goodness gracious is there really a need although the food is delicious.??? i don't know.. but i will have to bake to find out... mom and dad have complimented me for having a flair for baking... i hope so too.. be an all rounder is also good although i can't really be a genius.
so after that it was hitting the streets of ang mo kio central again to reminisce of the past. i returned with some goods in my hand so it was kind of delightful too... i got a top which had a bird that looked like my pet bird and i was smitten with it immediately. so i bought it without much hesitation but a lot of items caught my eye too.. i think it will be sometime for me to buy t hem again.. okay, i am tired of typing this entry especially when i had to do this twice.. so, signing out of 22092005.. tata
