$40 for a pair of tickets, accidentally!!!!

Me and BF did something stupid that day!

Actually, just me.

We were having dinner when we suddenly decided to watch movie. I wanted to watch Bad Teacher, so I used his mobile phone to book tickets. I was so happy because I found a slot at the shopping mall we are at and the timing was so suitable. Plus got corner two-person seat!! So I happily clicked confirm and bought the tickets using his card.

Then I said, "It's $40 today" aloud to BF, like it's alright. Cos I was thinking $10 per person, so $40 did seem correct. (Maths super fail -_-)

BF opened his eyes big big and said "What?? Why $40?!"

And then I suddenly realised what I done and this time it was me who did a O_O face back at him. I BOOKED THE PREMIUM CLASS TICKETS BY MISTAKE. $40 for a pair of tickets. We are not even rich and we are paying double on a normal day???!!!!! It's not even our anniversary or any special occasion!!! Plus the movie we are watching is not even those action pack hollywood blockbuster. It's "bad teacher" for goodness sake; the kind of the movies we can watch on DVDs.

-_- So anyway, we went in and was quite awed la. The movie was good, I like that Cameron Diaz is so cool ^_^



Another movie we watched recently was Contagion. I like the movie! It's so scary, like how a virus could be spreaded so easily. More scary than Sars, H1N1, etc! The virus kills so fast, there isn't even time to say goodbye :( Hope such virus never ever happens. At the end of the movie, it shows what happened at the start and why the virus was spreaded so quickly. I think the possiblity of it happening is very high lor, if the virus formula was true.


Then, we watched Fright Night, tickets given by Nuffnang. It's exciting and thrilling~! The storyline is simple but still, I had to grasp on BF's arm at some points of the story because the vampires are scary! I'm not sure if the movie is still screening, but I think it is worth a watch.

After the movie BF brought me to eat "Yu Tou Ru", Fish Head Steamboat. But the stall he chose wasn't fantastic... Had a hard time with the fish meat cos it was so full of bones! The soup became better and better after some time though.



BF pouring soup for me :) One thing I like about him is that when we dine, he always kiap food for me and put it on my plate. I find it very manly and I like being taken care of. Hehe. And when we eat some dishes like curry fish head, he always give me alot of meat when he knows I like them and he eats mostly veggies cos I don't like eating them. Don't like guys who snatch all the good food from me!! :P

I think it is his natural personality la, I don't think it's because he loves me especially or what. I'm sure he does that for all his ex girlfriends. Haha.

SMRT MAKAN SESSION!

Advertorial:

SMRT MAKAN SESSION
Circle Line brings you Life!
Uncovering the unexpected delights through Circle Line.



Hosted a yummy and fun makan session with my readers last weekend!

It was held conveniently at Esplanade Xchange, which is easily accessible via Esplanade MRT! If you do not know yet, Esplanade is just one of the stops in circle line that has a wide variety of shopping and dining options! The food we had were all within steps of each other in Esplanade Xchange!




I rode on the circle line with my sister to reach my destination.



The SMRT Circle Line is the first fully underground orbital line that links all MRT lines running into the city. Commuters may bypass busy interchanges like City Hall and Raffles Place by taking the Circle Line. Each train has three cars, 148 seats and can take up to 931 passengers. All stations have wide fare gates, lifts at the entrances and platforms and handicapped-friendly toilets. At the interchange stations, the connections to the different lines are also wheelchair-friendly.

The SMRT Circle Line stages 4 & 5 commence service on 8th October 2011, hence bringing the entire Circle Line network route to 33km. The full Circle Line network stretches from HarbourFront to Dhoby Ghaut, bringing convenience to residents staying near the stations and cutting back on travelling time to popular places such as Holland Village, National University of Singapore and Indoor Stadium.

Circle Line certainly saved a lot of time.
Just an example, my bf works at Serangoon. Sometimes I visit him for lunch and then head to Paya Lebar for shopping at my sponsors' stores. In the past, I have to take the North East Line, and then transfer to East-West Line. The whole journey would take 32 mins. Now? It will only take me 9 minutes! That's 23 minutes saved for me to spend more time with bf!


We had a little game session to break the ice!









Two winners were from my table! Bingo!









"Who wants yummy Eskimo pudding milk tea?"
"I want I want!"











Main course is served!






Everyone focusing on eating the super nice Bak Chor Mee from Fei Siong.








Too absorbed in the conversation didn't know Jamie was joking behind my back till I saw this picture!!


That was me quizing the readers on my table with SMRT circle line related questions!


Both men at my table won the little quiz! One answered correctly a questions regarding bubble tea's origin and another surprisingly knew the shopping malls near Esplanade Xchange (shouldn't the girls win this question?!) - Answer: Marina Square, CityLink & Raffles City Shopping Centre.



Next up was Red Mango yogurt for dessert! Everyone had a cup of Red Mango’s Yogurt Muesli with choice of yogurt (original or flavor of the day ((Pomegranate that day yummy!)) or twist) with granola, mixed nuts and mango.




Check out everyone's happy faces while eating the yogurt.






More pictures with some of the participants!








Group pictures with everyone. Thanks for coming!


That's the Circle line sign!


It was a great session and all participants were given vouchers to spend!
