[ LaU Pa SaT & sEntOSa ]

sunday morning.. yes.. its morning.. had a rough night.. didnt sleep much.. touched the bed at 4.. didnt fall asleep till 5.30.. n wake up almost every 45 mins intervals.. i guess i shd kick the habit of taking sat afternoon nap.. it is distorting my sleeping pattern on sat night.. sigh..

went out with CK, Marcus n Joelle last night.. we went over to Lau Pa Sat for our 'dinner' (practically it was only me taking the dinner dinner.. the pair took MacDonald's while they were mugging.. n CK took dinner at home).. i missed the calamari so much.. hm.. it was really yummy-licous.. haha.. and we were lucky to find a parking space the moment we arrived.. well.. the satay uncle sort of directed us to an empty spot.. but of course like wat Marcus had mentioned.. we are so-callled obliged to order satays from him later..

First couple of the NIGHT = Marcus & Joelle

Second couple of the NIGHT = ME & CK

ordered 20 sticks of satays (10 muttons & 10 chix).. I LOVE MUTTON!! ya.. FATTENING.. haha.. got the rest of the food from the chinese 'zi char' stall.. that included [sambal kang kong.. sambal stingray.. n 'tua tao' (aka mussels)].. no calamari.. was worried that we cant finish all much food.. the guys went to buy the famous 'tek terik'.. as usual 1 iced.. 3 hot.. haha..

Our 20 sticks of yummy-licous satays

the SAMBAL stingray is powerful.. really can 'fly'.. love the sambal.. not too spicy but the flavour is full.. **beam**.. the kang kong was alright.. BUT the 'tua tao' SUCKS.. pui.. in chinese.. we called it 'xing'.. so we asked the 'didi' who sold us the 'tua tao' to come over.. he explained that is the seafood taste of 'tua tao'.. the exact words shd be 'hai xian wei' (in chinese).. huh??? but the so-called 'hai xian wei' is so 'fan wei'.. **puke**.. then he offered to change this dish to something else for us.. n i cant resist ordering 'su-su' to try.. eating 'su-su' requires skills k.. it actually test ur 'sucking' skills.. haha.. similar concept to that of tying a knot on the cherry stalk.. we also decided to order the calamari as well..

hm.. the calamari was not from the same stall.. we still prefer the 'authentic' calamari that we had tried before.. it was really good.. u can literally taste the butter as u bit into the fried squid.. but to be honest.. it wasnt that bad.. just that we are food connoisseurs.. haha.. 'su-su' were good.. i love SUCKING them.. haha.. (i can tie a knot on the cherry stalk).. haha.. Joelle had a hard time eating the 'su-su'.. she even resorted to using the satay sticks.. hm.. but not really successful.. Marcus used his teeth to eat the 'su-su'.. HE BIT THE SHELL AND BROKE IT.. so that he could take out the flesh and eat them.. huh??? he even jokingly mentioned that his mom gave him a set of teeth that can break anything except diamond.. haha.. impressive isnt it.. CK was doing well.. not much prob.. haha.. now we know we can do what.. grin..

Test of the NIGHT = See who can suck the most number of 'Su-Su'!

the 4 of us were deciding where to go after that.. brought the car for a wash along Telok Blangah Road.. hm.. Joelle suggested driving into Sentosa for a drive.. n some exploration.. y not.. bought drinks.. n we drove there.. usually entry to Sentosa costs S$2.00 per car & per pax.. so we were expecting to pay S$10.00 to get into Sentosa.. wahahaha.. FREE ENTRY in the end ah.. the uncle didnt ask us to stop n pay.. so we happily drove in.. wahahaha..

Marucs suggested gng to 15 degree or 1 degree or what was it called again.. erm....... i FORGOT.. haha.. but the view at the place is really breath-taking.. i had been there once with Marcus and his Air Force friends doing charity work.. the place has a fantastic view of the sea.. yachts.. and i think u can sit at the wooden platform and chit-chat (provided there is no one supervising u).. hee.. wow.. Marcus managed to guide us in the right direction.. n we could see the place already.. but damn it.. the security guard stopped us.. informed us in a no-nonsense manner that the place is out of bounds n asked us to go back.. shit.. no choice.. made a u-turn n went back.. drove around Sentosa to 'tou feng'..

walked along Tanjong Beach for a while (so quiet so quiet so quiet).. sat down at the pavilion to chit chat for a while.. i wanted to take photographs but was stopped promptly by Marcus.. he causally commented that u dunno who will appear in the photographs later.. touch wood.. so no photographs.. was sitting behind this couple.. that Joelle n i CANT SEE AT ALL.. but the guys could describe the clothes the guy was wearing n what was the couple doing (ONLY HUGGING.. they said no smooching).. not true.. i cant see a thing.. only palm trees on that little island in front of us.. chey..

drove over to the ferry terminal to look for the old muscial fountain.. didnt manage to see it at all.. my new pair of heels was killing me.. didnt really want to walk around looking for it.. plus it wun even 'dance' at 2 in the morning.. took some photographs of the NEW VIVO city from across the sea.. PSA (Port of Singapore Authority).. n the 'DA ZHONG LOU' at the ferry terminal.. i suddenly realised that we had visited two 'DA ZHONG LOU' in singapore within the same night.. haha.. so ciao..

2nd 'Da Zhong Lou' of the NIGHT

agreed to let Marcus drive the car for a while in the carpark.. ck sat beside him.. n the girls were at the back.. i think he got the kick out of it.. motivated to tk his class 3 after the short drive.. was pretty simple.. just driving in circles around the car park.. round n round n round n round n round n round.. k.. u got the idea.. wink..

sent everyone safely home before i could announce HOME SWEET HOME.. hee.. a good night with my closest people.. cheers..

no tuition all the way till dec.. now i can enjoy my sunday rotting at home.. haha.. have a good weekend to all.. cheers.. =)
