Outing!!

Brought mom and dad out for dinner yesterday together with jie! hee~ been such a LOOONNNGG time since we last went out as a family.. as in only the 4 of us, no extras.. haha! we planned to go Thai express ever since my last trip there with sis n gang due to my commendation of the LEGENDARY BEEF NOODLES!! haha! [see my previous post] okays, we RARELY eat out as a family cos my mom seriously can cook like thousand times better than any hawkers out there(well, this verdict doesn't come from ME only.. haha!), and plus my dad is really health conscious.. for the better of himself and US ya.. haha.. So this is really not a COMMON scene in our family..

Was really looking forward to it since my nights.. in fact, was looking forward to my 5 days off.. but i think bad luck followed me home frm work.. haha.. this always happens.. whenever i'm having long breaks frm work, like the whole stretch of day-offs and rest-days or on leave, i tend to fall sick.. this time it happened again!! my tummy ached for TWO DAYS!!! tt was long.. argh!!! can u imagine the whole weekend spent lying in bed and wasting ur time away when others are out there partying??!!! *angry* well, only person i can blame is myself.. for being so stubborn, not seeing a doctor when i'm not well.. hai.. and teddy's not working on saturday!!! someone pls pull me away frm the wall so i won't bang it.. :(

Anyways.. lucky i got better on sunday so we went out as planned.. went to the outlet at marina sq.. and because i haven't been eating for the past few days.. i was REALLY HUNGRY(as usual) even before we reach the restaurant!! so i announced tt i already decided what to eat when we reach and tt is my BEEF NOODLE SOUP!! but this time i'm gona try the vermicelli.. haha!!

As soon as we reached the place, we quickly made our orders and waited P-A-T-I-E-N-T-L-Y for our food to come.. In all we ordered a mini tom-yum seafood steamboat, olive rice, stir-fried beef with basil, yellow ginger chicken and of cos my beef noodles.. haha.. Pictures yet to come cos still in my jie's phone.. hee~

the waitress warned us abt the yellow ginger chicken cos its supposed to be super spicy.. 超辣she said.. haha! den we said never mind cos we have 2 malfunctioned tastebuds.. haha!! tts my mom n jie!! well, u shld see the way they take chilli.. and my mom's homemade chilli is well known for its 火辣指數!! LOL~ so we ordered anyway..

Overall the food we ordered were quite nice.. except for jie's olive rice.. she said its too salty.. din wana try it since she said its not nice.. hee~ now, time for the sentence of THE YELLOW GINGER CHICKEN!! haha.. the final say is>>> IT'S REALLY SPICY!!!! hahaha.. even my mom couldn't take it!! her face turned all red frm it!! hahaha.. like those comical characters turning RED when they eat something spicy.. first time i see it on a real person!! hahaha.. but she still managed to finish it lah.. haha..

After eating we went to shop shop a little(helps in digestion too!).. poor dad had to wait for us outside the shops all the time.. haha! ZARA is having sale!! and the basics are going at $9.90!!!!! tts super cheap can!!! since when u get things frm Zara at less then 10 bucks??!! BUT.. here comes the disadvantage of being skinny.. NO SIZE!!!! can't find a single S/XS(those colours i want) even after ransacking the whole rack!! so in the end only bought a cardigan i'd been eyeing for sometime and since its SALE(frm what darling always say..), TELL ME A THOUSAND REASON FOR NOT BUYING CAN??!!! haha.. mom got 2 tops and jie too.. haha!!

Feels good to be going out as a family.. have dinner.. shopping.. and paying for them.. haha!! think we shld do this more often!! heh~ I came to realise sg has HOG'S BREATH!! yay!! maybe tt'll be our next stop!! haha!! wonder if it'll taste the same as back in Aussie..
