It's really lame to go back to workplace on a non-working day but had to meet up with this lady who intro me a job (although it didn't last...).

We had dinner at Sinpopo (the name sounded too comical).

Some ginger lemon soda.

Atas Lotong with beef and a super soft hard boiled egg (What am I saying??  But was very nice, no, not onsen egg).

The curry was delicious, the rice was soft, it was just PERFECT!

I was hungry, so rice was very much needed, had Nasi Lemak.

This was a rare case where food tasted way better than it looked.  The mid wings were super juicy though they looked like some hard goreng pisang here.

Then I rolled over to Chinatown and found the cheapest foot massage in Singapore inside Pearl Center - $26 for an hour.

The entire 3 floor was all massage parlours, very competitive environment, with more or less the same price for foot massage.  Chose "open" (visible from outside) salons to avoid men's sleazy fake salons.

After 1hour of not bad massage, meet up with old man and one of his colleagues. 

Tom and Nick Cafe closed on us so we ate at some random stall while I had dessert.

Drove back passing by Little India.

Matcha latte with chestnut pastry my friend brought back from 福建 China.

Finally done and ditched Mayer stove, gotten Techno, so far so good.

Please be warned - DO NOT BUY MAYER STOVE, mine had problem in less than a year.  The price is cheap for a reason.

I made myself a messy bowl of ramen with leftover onden and a failed onsen egg.  Kinda didn't do the $8 ramen justices lolxx...  Pan seared salmon was effortless, lunch was great at home.

Made Turkish apple tea and was good throughout the day, love it at home.

PapaVoo bought salmon head soup for dinner and it took me more than an hour to eat it.  Many bones to deal with but was freaking good.

Work day, went PopMart Wisma to see the raving Labubu.

Most items out of stock, so just see look the displays.

The merlion version looked hilarious.

Big fang monster.

If Lisa had an official advertisement with it, she would had earned big bucks lolxx...

Had lunch at Wisma foodcourt, nasi padang was about $10.  All good but I was feeling heaty couldn't take in the spice.

Another workday in Orchard Road, ate light lunch for a big feast later at night.

Char siew chee chiong fun.  This was located in B1 of ION, recommended.

After work, PapaVoo and Luis came to eat HDL at Wisma with me for dinner.

Never sick of it even after countless times we ate HDL.

Had $30 off and a broccoli plushie.

Work at BHG.  They shifted our products wall, this time no stool.  Didn't like it here even though that cashier had left me alone.  She obviously had a nice piece of what she sowed.  She had no idea who did it cos' she had bullied so many people.

Lunch.

Had teriyaki chicken with cheese baked rice.

Taste was average, but it was a peaceful lunch.

My legs died on me, I had to "eat snake".  Bought an expensive baby Boost to just sit down for a while.

Time finally snailed pass 8 ours.

Bought avocado croissant for supper.

Brunch with Lavender bakery layered cube toast, it was around S$8.  I know it's overpriced, but I just wanted to try.

It was "hole-ly", super fluffy and buttery.  Nice but I wouldn't splurge on it again.

Workday at Scotts, it was winter here.

Lavender bakery had Halloween display.

Had $8 hakka yong tau foo at ION, love the refreshing radish soup.  Kinda sad that I was losing the job soon (they had enough girls to fill the Scotts counter and the BHG counter didn't open).

PapaVoo came to pick me up from work, he saved my legs.

Was always in my best mood on a rest day after a day's work.

But this break was a bit too long...  Next work day was scheduled at next week.

I am finally catching up with my diary lolxx...
