26/09/2025

Lunch/Tea session with Vivian.
Tea Time tea house located at Pagoda Street  of Chinatown.

Bo lang when we reached.

To "play" with these tools need to purchase expensive tea leaves, so we just had something simple.

Glass tea set was very pretty but the little cups were too hot to hold.

We ordered dim sum set which came with pretty oriental presentation.
All were nice enough except for the bamboo shoots.
We didn't have large appetite but still the 9 mini dishes wasn't enough.

We took a short walk for part 2, went to this touristy coffee place.
Tummies filled and finally satisfied.
She was the kindest person in world, not judging me even the least bit, giving me advise and urged me to keep my marriage.

We parted around late noon, I went shopping at Bugis for a new office dress and a pair of comfortable mary janes.

Had salad from Paris Baguette for dinner, my least effort to maintain my weight.

Luis had pork chop rice.

Old man and I had curry fish head.
We ordered 3 cups of cold water for 50cts each haahaahaa...

Bought a stash of blood pressure control pills from Eu Yang San and a roll of sports tape for Pris.

Why am I constantly eating???

SongFa Bak Kut Teh at Changi Business Park with old man cos he wanted to use his $5 birthday voucher.
Our neighbour working as a server here came over to say hello.  She was in a very bad shape but what to do...  I am no better anyway, just that I am good at camouflaging.

First day to work at Raffles Place.  I arrived early, so I had breakfast at Luckin.

It was a series of 画大饼 followed by a morning mass meeting with more than 50 people.

Then everybody set off to different locations around Singapore.
Not pleasant at all outside AMK Hub.  It's all sheltered but I was feeling very warm.  The next thing I knew I was hit by a PMA bike.  My ankles had never been well so this made it worst.  My colleague was very kind, he bough some ice for me to apply.

Old man was having dinner at Novena, so I asked him to pick me up.  He said I should had called the police lolxx...

2nd day of work, had company lunch.
I tried my best to hide my stress.  My nasi lemak with big drum, nice but not able to enjoy haahaahaa...

My team of colleagues were very nice, very encouraging till kinda over, I felt stressful if I didn't close any sales.  At this point of time I was thinking it might not work for me...

Gardens By The Bay - Lanterns Festival and Aurora lightings

 22/09/2025

Attended 趴趴走 event at Gardens By The Bay.

Wearing 趴趴走 uniform, but ended up being away from the group.
Was wanting to visit Flora Fantasy but I arrived too late.

Btw, founder of this non-profit organization was found by our local film director Jack Neo.
Old man was doing voluntary work in the organization.

I found my species haahaahaa...

Abandon the group and went having our own fun with old man's female colleague.  She's a sweet little baby girl good enough to be my daughter.

Took some photos of the decors in day light.

Vintage tibit in giant size.

Triangle milk cartons when I was in primary school.

Life size painted bears from all over the world.

Dinner at dinosaur food court, not cheap, not surprised.

The luke warm meal was about S$16.

It was like magic when night came.

Almost bought a jelly fish balloon, looked so cute, but it's going to just sit at home useless.

Performances which didn't attract.

Made small talks with strangers from the group and visitors from Melbourne.

Reunited with old man, I bought coconut ice-cream to share, cos his dinner bento was pathetic.

Around 9pm, when we were about to leave, the Aurora light started!
Didn't expect it and it was beautiful!  没钱看真的,看看假的安慰安慰。

Ended the nice night, somehow feeling slightly lonely in heart.
