Celebrate Life: Stephen's Trip

3 June

Finally....he's here! Tiger Airways touched down as scheduled and soon, Stephen was out into the arrival hall. So happy to see him again!

Got home for some rest before meeting up with Raymond, Jim and Derrick for dinner. Met up at City Square and finally decided to eat at Boon Tiong Kee at Balestier Road. We ordered quite a few dishes, such as the famous chicken. We even got Bak Kut Teh from the shop next door! The best part of the dinner was the appetizer. We had char siew for appetizer and it was so delicious that we had 5 plates! Yum yum!

Dinner must come with dessert and we decided to go to Udders for ice cream. We had Mao Shan Wang, bailey's and mango sherbet....the durian ice cream was heavenly!

4 June

Decided to travel into JB for the day. Took the train ride to Kranji and then by bus to immigration. The traffic was rather smooth , just a short jam over at Johore side, as usual. The first thing to do with to change some money and then lunch, the famous Bak Kut Teh place near The Store. We had to wait quite a while and Stephen actually fell asleep, in the hot weather! The food was delicious, just the shop was too hot for him to enjoy the meal!

Next stop .... foot reflex! Other than the occasional pains, Stephen finally dozed off during the session. For me, I always dozed off! The session was really good!

Then, it's back to City Square. Managed to get a present for Wong, had something to eat and drink at The Old Town before travelling back to Singapore.

Got back and Stephen suggested to eat in. Had to go to NTUC and get some stuff. Cooked up fried bee hoon and accidentally set fire.....ended up with the kitchen on smoke! The consolation was there was no complaint! Hahahaha!

Then to Chinatown to try and locate a DVD for Simon. Did not manage to get. Ended up with movie at Tiong Bahru Plaza - The Prince of Persia.

Though it was just simple dinner and home and movie, it was a great evening for us!

5 June

Fish ball noodle for breakfast..... and then stoped over at Alexandra Fire Station., Managed to get permission for us to take a look at the Fire station. My 1st time! Then, off to Chinatown again to see if we could find the DVD. Had simple lunch at the basement of Bugis junction before going over to Iluma for the karaoke at Suitez.

The karaoke session with Derrick, Alan, Raymond and Jim was fun! Everyone had a great time during that few hours!

Dinner was ala carte buffet at Zhou Zhuang, Far East Square. Wong, Tony, Albert, Gerald and Jay came along. We were initially 'irritated' with the waitress by the remarks she passed. During the course of dinner, some of them (playfully) casually passed some sarcastic remarks. The food was average, not fantastic.....however, the Company was great! We had a lot of fun chatting away! By the time we finished, it was 10pm! We knew, because the air-con went off!
