I woke up to a call from Mom this afternoon. Instead of just a dinner, she wanted to bring two ladies from UK around Singapore for a bit, and bring them shopping before dinner. I headed down to Mom's office at about 4pm and from then till 11pm, I was the day's Chauffer (however you spell it lol) I first drove them down to Bukit Timah Plaza where Mom had to help a colleague with some maid issues at the agency. In the meantime, I brought the 2 ladies around some of the shops and they bought a bunch of CNY goodies...good selection too!! No pineapple tarts though unfortunately heh. After we departed from the mall, we headed down to Mount Faber to show them the view of the sea (Sorta) and a "bird's eye" view of Singapore, or at least whatever you can see from the top of that point LoL. Grabbed some drinks at the little open-air restaurant there which mind you, has killer prices. A simple glass of Coke or Sprite costs you $5 flat. The view probably makes the retaurant's rent sky high I suppose lol.
After chilling out there for a bit, we made our way over to this little chinese restaurant near our house called "ManHill Restaurant". Its an old fashioned restaurant that was built there since my Mom was a little girl so you can imagine just how OLD it must be LOL...The food there is simply superb!! We had sliced fish with ginger, Sweet&Sour pork, Paper Chicken (Chicken wrapped in grease-proof paper and cooked), and a claypot thingy...It was awesome!! Of course we had beers to wash it all down! xD
Our last destination was HarbourFront where the ladies wanted to check out Mp3 players and Laptops....I got my external hard drive at the same time..FINALLY!! xD They also had a look at a jewellery shop to get gifts for their Mom's back in the UK =D
*Psst* Mom took the opportunity to buy Bakwa from a nearby shop just one level down. Mom said she was trying to exercise her Mandarin (Which is as good as mine and you KNOW how "good" my chinese is) and between her and the girl at the counter, they managed to make a successful transaction. Apparently, the girl was extra nice and instead of .5KG of Bakwa, Mom ended up buying 1Kg Lmao and the girl even gave Mom some extra paper in case she wanted to seperate them or anything xD I guess if you are nice to people, they'll always try to give you a little extra service. Kindness brings kindness! =D
After allllllll that, we drove them back to their hotel (Fullerton Hotel) so damn expensive LoL...The office really knows how to treat their employees! Best of the best! xD
Well another cool day!! Came home, got online and my wonderful sis msged me!! xD There is no better way to end the day then a nice relaxing fun chat with my sis! <33 xD
