revenge of the indomitable... ah pek.
my baby's 24!
but tt being said... sometimes when he dresses down, he looks older.
like, way older.
like, uncle older.
yesterday, he donned this light blue shirt tt would look really good... on his father. when we went to meet chiang liang for lunch at imm, they had a nice smoking session outside the building before our bk lunch, and as always...
squatting and smoking with light blue shirt and ah pek slippers = ...???
this.
anyway after lunch, we decided to take bus #51 from jurong east to city hall to meet diana for dinner @ yaki yuki.
#51 takes 1 and a half hours to travel from jurong east to city hall. tt is half the time it takes to travel from singapore to kl.
we took time in the bus to talk, sleep and even explore new territory, but at the end of the journey we still vowed tt it would be one tt we would never repeat.
nevertheless, we made it to yaki yuki a little after 6.30pm. it was my first time there. yaki yuki is like seoul garden. it's more expensive, but i suppose for cooking-your-own-food buffets it's pretty decent. thank you diana. :) diana gave ben his birthday present, but tt did not stop him from mercilessly ji siaoing her. and looking like an uncle bringing his 2 nieces out for dinner. hee hee hee.
i refer to him as the "gas uncle" - the person tt you order cooking gas cannisters from when you run out of cooking gas. it's the whole light blue polo shirt and slippers thing lah.
besides... after our main course when we were making our ice-cream (they have a 'make-your-own-ice-cream' thing going for an additional $2), this was how he looked like:
don't know why so deep in thought.
or why so unglam (everyone who reads this blog either calls it a chronicle of ben's life, or an excuse for me to post unglam photos of my bf up). oh, speaking of which yesterday we saw melissa outside yuki yaki. hi melissa *waves frantically*!
but i digress. anyway ben was just playing with the ice-cream. and how do i know tt?
well. his handiwork.
tt being said, diana was more than doing her part as the diligent ice-cream maker.
whom ben was absolutely driving nuts with his antics.
and me? all i was doing...
was eating. wahaha.
and now for the people pics:
me and diana. who was really sweet and really nice and gave ben a really nice present even though he always makes her angry.
and i'm sorry wanyi, but these still have to go up...
me and ben, before the meal.
me and ben, after the meal. yar, you all agree right? he still looks damn uncle. wahaha.
after dinner, we went to the arcade to kill time. i tried my hand at tekken 5; diana showed us how much she loved playing house of the dead; we played a few shooting games with her...
and once again the inner ah beng came out.
ben playing this shooting game tt involves physically squatting to avoid bullets (damn good exercise sia).
and ben showing us what an expert he is at playing puzzle fighter. really, he kept beating whoever he challenged in the game.
and diana tried playing with him, but he beat her too.
after tt, we walked to esplanade bay to sit by the water and talk (but we didn't find any couples to ka cheow) until we all decided tt we needed to go back. then ben and i took the bus to the usual supper place for a late night (and ben's first) milo dinosaur, before continuing on home.
today, we met his mom for lunch (it's his birthday today!) at the garden cafe at hotel phoenix for tt buffet thingy. the prata and the chocolate mousse is damn shiok. couldn't stop helping myself to them. then we went to the apple concept store at cineleisure to purchase the ipod dock and speakers for my dad.
there was a misunderstanding along the way, but we cleared tt up 2 hours later at the central library (tt being my first visit there), and then with my fave iced mocha at our fave starbucks hangout.
and as usual...
from the inside to the outside...
smoking again (heh heh heh)...
and acbc - act cute buay cute.
we had dinner at beach road - kway chap!!! -, and coz i'd dropped by marina square to say 'hi' to the girls, we decided tt ben shld also get his hair cut.
so we went to chapter 2, where...
this is ben in the hot seat looking apprehensive...
and this is the hairdresser fiddling with his hair.
and me, looking totally amused at the sight.
my camera, which is not only spoilt, ran out of memory space, so unfortunately you don't get to see the after photos of his hair cut. well, because the lady decided tt the "singapore idol wannabe" hairstyles are really in, she gave him tt kind of styling, so he looked literally like he just got out of bed and he slept on his hair in a very bad way.
fortunately, he managed to smooth the hair down sufficiently before we went back to mccafe at lido to meet wanyi and manthu for coffee and a late night chat. we also got time in for jamaican chocolate gelato from gelare. and the bitching session with my babes was extremely fun, although we were missing jane (*sigh*) and ben wasn't exactly a babe either. hee hee. but it was okay lah. we'd bitch and he'd smoke and wanyi would make fun of his "squatting and smoking" photos. hee hee hee.
after tt, coz i was hungry, ben and i caught a bite at the 24 hour mac's, and stayed to watch a bit of the netherlands - cote d'ivore world cup match. we left after van nielsteroy scored the goal tt might have sealed cote d'ivore's fate, mainly coz it was fucking hot and humid.
and strangely, i feel almost... married. hmm.
*muakz*
now playing: hotel costes - cafe de flor
